The challenges of theory-software translation
Authors: Jay Caroline , Haines Robert , Katz Daniel S. , Carver Jeffrey C. , Gesing Sandra , Brandt Steven R. , Howison James , Dubey Anshu , Phillips James C. , Wan Hui , Turk Matthew J.
Published: October 2020

Background: Software is now ubiquitous within research. In addition to the general challenges common to all software development projects, research software must also represent, manipulate, and provide data for complex theoretical constructs. Ensuring this process of theory-software translation is robust is essential to maintaining the integrity of the science resulting from it, and yet there has been little formal recognition or exploration of the challenges associated with it.

Methods: We thematically analyse the outputs of the discussion sessions at the Theory-Software Translation Workshop 2019, where academic researchers and research software engineers from a variety of domains, and with particular expertise in high performance computing, explored the process of translating between scientific theory and software.

Results: We identify a wide range of challenges to implementing scientific theory in research software and using the resulting data and models for the advancement of knowledge. We categorise these within the emergent themes of design, infrastructure, and culture, and map them to associated research questions.

Conclusions: Systematically investigating how software is constructed and its outputs used within science has the potential to improve the robustness of research software and accelerate progress in its development. We propose that this issue be examined within a new research area of theory-software translation, which would aim to significantly advance both knowledge and scientific practice.
How accessible is healthcare for single adults experiencing long-term homelessness and complex needs? A realist evaluation protocol
Authors: Siersbaek Rikke , Ford John , Ní Cheallaigh Clíona , Burke Sara , Thomas Steve
Published: October 2020

Background: Over the last several years, homelessness has increased in Ireland and across Europe. Rates have recently declined since the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, but it is unclear whether emergency housing measures will remain in place permanently. Populations experiencing long-term homelessness face a higher burden of multi-morbidity at an earlier age than housed populations and have poorer health outcomes. However, this population also has more difficulty accessing appropriate health services. A realist review by the authors found that important health system contexts which impact access are resourcing, training, funding cycles, health system fragmentation, health system goals, how care is organised, culture, leadership and flexibility of care delivery. Using a realist evaluation approach, this research will explore and refine key system-level factors, highlighted in our realist review, in a local health care system.

Aim: The aim of this study is to understand how funding procedures and health system performance management impact service settings, staff, providers and their ability to make services accessible to populations experiencing homelessness.

Methods: A realist evaluation will be undertaken to explain how funding and health system performance management impact healthcare accessibility for populations experiencing homelessness. Data will be collected using qualitative and realist interview techniques and focus group methodology. Secondary data such as policy documents and budgets will utilised. The analysis will follow Pawson and Tilley’s iterative phases starting with building an Initial programme theory, then data collection, data analysis, synthesis and finally building a refined programme theory.

Conclusion: Building on a realist review conducted by the same research team, this study will further test and refine findings that explain how health system factors impact healthcare accessibility for populations experiencing homelessness. The study has the potential to inform policy makers, health planners and managers of contextual factors that can be modified to increase healthcare accessibility.

PATRIMÔNIO CULTURAL RELIGIOSO NA CIDADE DE JUAZEIRO DO NORTE – CEARÁ - BRASIL E A TESE DE TOMBAMENTO AFETIVO EM GEOGRAFIA
Authors: Aragão Raimundo Freitas , Cavalcante Tiago Vieira
Published: October 2020

Interessa-nos apresentar neste artigo a formulação de uma tese envolvendo tombamento afetivo em geografia. A tese está fundamentada no estudo de dois patrimônios religiosos urbanos diferenciados ocupando um mesmo espaço no centro da cidade de Juazeiro do Norte no estado do Ceará. O primeiro trata-se do conjunto patrimonial Praça do Largo do Socorro. O segundo, idealizado como atrativo turístico, foi implantado nesta mesma praça como espaço museal e memorial. A análise destaca particularmente as diferenças conceituais entre estes dois patrimônios e, nos termos desta análise, apresentamos a tese de tombamento afetivo patrimonial. Propomos discutir a tese de que a Praça do Largo do Socorro é tombada por meio da afetividade humana, pois trata-se de um espaço de forte dinâmica simbólica assentada na religiosidade popular a qual se transformou em herança patrimonial através das vivências e das dinâmicas simbólicas envoltas ao religioso.

Does transition to parenthood affect gender traits? The effect of pregnancy on perceived female and male traits
Authors: Naurin Elin , Markstedt Elias , Stolle Dietlind , Elden Helen , Sengpiel Verena , Linden Karolina
Published: October 2020

How stable is gender identity when facing important gendered life events? In the study of gender identity, little research has focused on adulthood experiences that might modify or reinforce self-perceptions of gender traits. This article uses pregnancy and early parenthood to study stability and change in self-perceived female and male traits. We make use of data from a large-scale citizen panel in Sweden that tracks respondents who eventually become pregnant. The overall conclusion is that self-perceptions of gender traits are mostly stable throughout pregnancy and early parenthood in the comparatively gender-equal context of Sweden.
Reivindicacions femenines a les assignatures de clàssiques
Authors: Vidiella Puñet Ignasi
Published: October 2020

Els darrers dos segles, la societat ha anat prenent consciència, lentament, de les desigualtats a les quals ha estat sotmesa la dona de manera sistemàtica i ha intentat posar-hi solució des de tots els àmbits possibles. Una manera d’ajudar a la causa, segons el consens, és la formació de referents femenins que permetin a qualsevol dona d’aspirar a ser el que desitgi. En aquest sentit, creiem que les assignatures de clàssiques poden aportar exemples que facin visible el paper femení, sense maquillar-lo però tampoc sense negar-lo. Així, emmarcant-nos en la legislació actual de l’educació secundària, volem proposar un seguit d’activitats que permetin als alumnes de les assignatures de clàssiques de reconèixer alguns personatges femenins rellevants que van escriure en les llengües grega o llatina, com ara Safo, Sulpícia, Teano, Hipàtia d’Alexandria o Hildegarda de Bingen.

Volver a la tradición: Latine discere iuvat
Authors: Amador Antonio G.
Published: October 2020

La intención del presente artículo es repasar brevemente la historia de la metodología empleada para la enseñanza del Latín y el Griego en nuestro país y otros estados europeos durante el siglo XX, haciendo hincapié en los diversos intentos de recuperar las bases de la tradición humanística y luchar contra el método de gramática-traducción, mal llamado “tradicional”, implantado por la escuela prusiana en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX y destinado más a formar individuos a través de una “gimnasia mental” que a enseñar lenguas clásicas. En ese sentido, procuraremos demostrar cómo el uso activo en el aula de la lengua objeto de estudio por parte de profesores y alumnos, tanto de forma oral como escrita, es beneficioso no solo para el aprendizaje de dicha lengua, sino para un más profundo conocimiento de esta, convencidos de que trabajando la competencia lingüística, y no solo la teoría gramatical, conseguiremos devolver a nuestros estudios su importancia en el actual sistema educativo.

. A software-based digital signal generator and lock-in amplifier, in combination with the wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) technique, were used for the concentration measurement of NO. In addition, a Gabor filter denoising method was developed to improve the performance of the measurement system. As a result, a minimum detection limit of 42 ppbv can be achieved at 3 s integration time, and a measurement precision of 450 ppbv can be reached with a time resolution of 0.1 s. The performance of the compact portable sensor was verified by a series of experiments, denoting great potential of field application for sensitive NO sensing.
Industrial research on evolution and prediction of hardwood
color
Authors: Iparragirre Apraiz Itsasne , De La Osa Rodrigo Alcaraz , Ortiz Dolores , María Saiz José , Moreno Fernando , González Francisco
Published: October 2020

Color prediction in dyed wood is a difficult task since it involves the
analysis of light propagation through a complex media where scattering
and absorption processes are present. Kubelka–Munk-based models are
usually proposed to make those predictions. Here, an oak wood color
prediction tool is presented with the Kubelka–Munk theory and
self-learning procedures as the basis of the model. Color prediction
lies on the joint contribution of both the dying material and the wood
substrate, each characterized by their previously obtained
colorimetric and spectral properties. An identification of wood and
dyes through the study of their optical properties is shown, from
which the necessary parameters are obtained for the different
applications. The model allows us to predict with good accuracy the
resulting color in wood through the

coordinates when mixing either water
or solvent-based dyes in different proportions for dying a wood
substrate. Furthermore, the influences of applying dye mixtures either
by hand with a brush or by machine with a roller coating and also that
of varnishing are studied.
100  Gbps/λ PON downstream O- and C-band alternatives using direct-detection and linear-impairment equalization [Invited]
Authors: Torres-Ferrera Pablo , Wang Haoyi , Ferrero Valter , Gaudino Roberto
Published: October 2020

The future-generation passive optical network (PON) physical layer, targeting 100 Gbps/wavelength, will have to deal with severe optoelectronics bandwidth and chromatic dispersion limitations. In this paper, largely extending our Optical Fiber Communication Conference (OFC) 2020 invited paper, we review 100 Gbps/wavelength PON downstream alternatives over standard single-mode fiber in the O- and C-bands, analyzing three modulation formats (PAM-4, partial-response PAM-4, and PAM-8), two types of direct-detection receivers (APD- and SOA 

+

 PIN-based), and three digital reception strategies (unequalized, feed-forward equalized, and decision-feedback equalized). We evaluate by means of simulations the performance of these alternatives under different optoelectronics bandwidth and dispersion scenarios, identifying O-band feasible solutions able to reach 20 km of fiber and an optical path loss of at least 29 dB over a wide wavelength range of operation. Finally, we compare two digitally precompensated modulation schemes that are highly tolerant of chromatic dispersion, showing a possible extension to C-band operation, preserving direct-detection and linear-impairment equalization at the optical network unit side.

Published: October 2020

We propose label-free and motion-free resolution-enhanced intensity diffraction tomography (reIDT) recovering the 3D complex refractive index distribution of an object. By combining an annular illumination strategy with a high numerical aperture (NA) condenser, we achieve near-diffraction-limited lateral resolution of 346 nm and axial resolution of 1.2  μm over

volume. Our annular pattern matches the system’s maximum NA to reduce the data requirement to 48 intensity frames. The reIDT system is directly built on a standard commercial microscope with a simple LED array source and condenser lens adds-on, and promises broad applications for natural biological imaging with minimal hardware modifications. To test the capabilities of our technique, we present the 3D complex refractive index reconstructions on an absorptive USAF resolution target and Henrietta Lacks (HeLa) and HT29 human cancer cells. Our work provides an important step in intensity-based diffraction tomography toward high-resolution imaging applications.
Flameless errekuntzak klima aldaketaren aurka

Published: October 2020

Gaur egun klima aldaketaren inguruan daukagun egoera hobetzeko, energia kontsumoa murriztu behar da eta teknologia eraginkorrak eta emisiorik gabekoak suspertu behar dira. Nahiz eta energia berriztagarrien alde apustu egin, gaur egungo datuen arabera, bai gaur egun zein etorkizunean erregai fosilen kontsumoa energia primarioa izango da. Egoera honen aurrean erregai fosiletan oinarritzen diren teknologiei buruz ikerkuntzak egitea beharrezkoa da, teknologia berderantz bideratzeko. Klima aldaketari aurre egiteko flameless errekuntza garatu da. Flameless errekuntza produktuen aerodinamikan oinarritzen da, eta horiek birzirkulatuz erreaktiboak diluitu egiten dira. Horri esker O2-aren kontzentrazioa murrizten da labeko gar tenperatura murriztuz. NOx gasen emisioak tenperaturarekin erlazionatuta daudenez, labe tenperatura murriztean, NOx emisioak murrizten dira. Gainera, produktuen birzirkulazioaren bitartez erreaktiboak aurreberotzen badira, energia eraginkortasuna hobetzen da. Teknologia berri horrek aplikazio zuzena izan dezake tenperatura altuko labe eta galdaretan; adibidez, potentzia termikoko instalazioetan, findegietan, industria kimikoan, zeramika, beira, zementu eta altzairu lantegietan, NOx emisioak eta energia kontsumoa murriztuz. Flameless teknologia hobeto ulertzeko helburuarekin ikertzaileak Fluido Dinamika Konputazionala (FDK)-ren bitartez esperimentuak eta simulazioak egiten ari dira. FDK programan dauden modeloekin ohiko errekuntzaren ezaugarriak zehaztasunez simula daitezke (bero transferentzia, jariakinen mekanika, erradiazio termikoa, erreakzio kimikoak eta turbulentzia-kimika interakzioa), baina ez flameless errekuntza, erreaktiboen diluzioa kontuan hartzen ez delako. Hori dela eta beste modelo berri batzuk garatu behar dira.

Published: October 2020

Azken urteetan aldaketa asko izan dira hezkuntza arloko maila guztietan, haur hezkuntzatik hasi eta unibertsitateraino. Unibertsitatean ohikoa zen 200 ikasleko eskolak egokitzea, batez ere teoriaren irakaskuntzari zuzenduta zeudenak. Gaur egun, ordea, ikasle kopurua askoz ere txikiagoa da eta eskolak askoz ere praktikoagoak. Honek aukera ematen du metodologia ezberdinak aplikatu ahal izateko, Project Based Learning (PBL) izenekoa adibidez, non ikasleek edukiak proiektu baten garapenaren bitartez barneratzen dituzten. Metodologia hori aplikatuz 2017/2018 ikasturtean diziplina anitzeko proba pilotu bat egin zen Bilboko Ingeniaritza Eskolako Kudeaketaren eta Informazio Sistemen Informatikaren Ingeniaritzako graduko Software Ingeniaritza eta Datu-baseak irakasgaien artean, proiektu amankomun bat zehazki. Artikulu honetan azaltzen da esperientzia zein izan zen eta zer ondorio atera ziren handik.
Prozesu estokastikoak fisikan eta ekonomian: higidura browndarretik finantza-merkatuen ereduetara

Azken hamarkadetan, ikerkuntza-talde anitzek, fisikan garatutako metodoak erabili dituzte merkatuen portaera aztertzeko. Izan ere, merkatuetako ezaugarri estatistiko sinple batzuen unibertsaltasuna nabarmena da: eskala-menpekotasunik gabeko fenomenoak antzeman daitezke (itzulkinen probabilitate-banaketetan, adibidez), fisikako hainbat esparrutan agertzen diren gisan. Hala, fisikarientzat, ekonomia ikertzea, ongi definitutako sistema konplexu bati buruzko datu ugari aztertzea bilakatu da. Aztertze-metodologia garrantzitsuenetariko bat, adibidez, prozesu estokastikoak erabiltzean datza. Izan ere, fisikan, ezaugarri unibertsalak dituzten sistema konplexu batzuen kasuan, eredu deterministak ez dira baliagarriak. Bi esparruen arteko paralelismotik, hortaz, ikuspegi estokastikoa ekonomiaren esparruan sartzea, eta merkatu estokastiko bat ereduztatzea zilegi litzateke. Hau da, kontzeptu matematiko beraz baliatuz, posible da eredu fisiko eta ekonomiko bat independenteki sortzea.
La nación contra el fascismo: PSOE y SFIO, 1933-1936
Authors: Martí Bataller Aurelio
Published: October 2020

Este artículo propone un estudio del antifascismo socialista en España. Al respecto, se apuesta por situar la nación como referente cultural y político en el centro del análisis, y aplicar una perspectiva comparada con el caso de Francia. Dicho análisis se plantea para el período inmediatamente anterior a la Guerra Civil en España y toma como principal fuente a la prensa socialista.El artículo se desarrolla en dos grandes bloques, con la Revolución de Octubre de 1934 como hito. A partir de entonces emergió en el seno del PSOE un enfrentamiento por el control de la organización. El artículo se centra en el estudio de la corriente caballerista, considerada el ala izquierdista, a la cual se contrapone el caso del socialismo francés y, especialmente, el de la facción de la Bataille Socialiste, situada también a la izquierda de la SFIO. La comparación puede resultar relevante para observar la concepción del antifascismo diseñada por dichos sectores y la articulación entre las identidades de clase y de nación. De esta manera, el artículo pretende acercarse a qué había más allá de la divisa del antifascismo, qué referentes e ideas hubo en su forja y crecimiento.
A la cumbre por un valle. Adolphe Desoignie, un ingeniero de minas pionero en la Asturias protoindustrial
Authors: Muñiz Sánchez Jorge
Published: October 2020

Los años centrales del siglo XIX son uno de los vacíos más llamativos de la historiografía sobre la industrialización asturiana, puesto que constituyen el punto de despegue del proceso. En estas páginas se glosan las aportaciones técnicas de uno de los primeros ingenieros de minas que trabajaron en la región, el belga Adolphe Desoignie, que contribuyó a la transferencia de tecnología avanzada entre Centroeuropa y Asturias en esta fase liminar y decisiva. En 2019 se cumplieron 180 años de la puesta en marcha la primera mina submarina documentada en Europa. Pese a ello, como otros coetáneos, no ha tenido la repercusión que merece en la literatura científica.

Published: October 2020

Abstract: The history of blacks in Brazil is “a story to rock great people” as it is referred to by the 2019 plot of the Samba School Estação Primeira de Mangueira. Seen and told from the historical perspective and the interest of a layer of society, when we hear the history of black people in Brazil, we understand the dangers and the contours of a “unique history”. When we try to strip the lines of this story, we understand the strength, the weight and the power of the expression “Brazilian racism”. This study is characterized as bibliographic, developed from reading reviews. It aims to provoke a discussion about race, racism and power relations in Brazil. Keywords: Race; Racism; Power.
Performance of the root system of tomato plants inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and submitted to the grafting technique

Published: October 2020

Information about the combined use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in grafted horticultural crops are scarce, as is the case of tomato. Therefore, we investigated if the association between AMF and the grafting technique modifies the performance of the root system of tomato plants grown on substrate. The treatments, outlined in a two-factorial scheme, were absence of inoculation and two inoculants of AMF (Rhizophagus clarus and mycorrhizal community) inserted in grafted and non-grafted tomato plants. The experiment was designed entirely at random, with five replications. The evaluations in the root system of the plants were carried out at 30 and 120 days after transplantation (DAT). Grafted plants evaluated at 30 DAT showed greater mycorrhizal colonization when cultivated with R. clarus. However, in the 120 DAT evaluation, the greatest mycorrhizal colonization was observed in non-grafted plants produced with the mycorrhizal community. At 120 DAT, the plants produced with the mycorrhizal community showed a more developed root system in relation to non-mycorrhized plants. The root system of plants non-grafted at 120 DAT was more robust when compared to grafted plants. In conclusion, the AMF-grafting interface interferes in the mycorrhizal colonization of the root system of tomato plants. The grafting technique does not improve the development of the root system. The inoculation of tomato plants with the mycorrhizal community enhances the development of roots at 120 DAT.

Published: October 2020

De forma global, muito tem se falado sobre uma nova doença causada por coronavírus, que ultrapassou fronteiras e se propagou por todo o mundo, tornando-se uma pandemia ameaçadora para mais de 7 bilhões de vidas. Nesse contexto, através de um debate crítico e reflexivo, esse estudo fundamentou seu objetivo, o de analisar os possíveis impactos da Pandemia da COVID-19 no sistema educacional superior odontológico. Para tal, foi estrategicamente delineado por dois pontos de discussão, sendo eles: “COVID-19: o que estamos enfrentando?” e “Reflexões sobre o processo formativo da Odontologia em interface com a pandemia”. Do primeiro ponto, inicialmente, foram abordadas a descrição, a origem e a transmissibilidade do vírus (SARSCoV-2), seguindo-se para o enfoque da doença, abarcando seus sinais e sintomas, diagnóstico, possíveis percursos, controle coletivo, grupos de risco e seus possíveis tratamentos e prevenção. Já no segundo, de forma temporal, buscou-se uma compreensão de como o processo educativo odontológico foi afetado pela pandemia, partindo do seu ingresso, essencialmente cientificista, em direção às reflexões durante o enfrentamento da doença e, por fim, às expectativas dos possíveis apontamentos para o seu futuro. De tudo, em conclusão, a intenção dessa pesquisa não foi a de conceber uma visão negativista do futuro da Odontologia, pelo contrário, acredita-se que, imersa às complexidades políticas e econômicas em que o mundo está atravessando, a academia odontológica ainda se dedicará a refletir mais sobre outras habilidades, pautadas na plasticidade do adaptar, do criar, do suprimir, do postergar, do (re)inventar e, principalmente, do contextualizar-se.

Acute Ischemic Colitis due to Oral Phenylephrine
Authors: El-Alali Emran , Alhmoud Tarik
Published: October 2020

Oral phenylephrine is a commonly used over-the-counter nasal decongestant drug. It is usually taken for symptomatic relief (in combination drug products) for upper respiratory tract infections, allergic rhinitis, or sinusitis. Adverse cardiovascular effects of intravenous phenylephrine, including organ ischemia, are well known; however, oral phenylephrine is rarely associated with significant adverse effects. We describe the first case of acute ischemic colitis in a young patient due to over-the-counter oral phenylephrine, which was taken as a nasal decongestant. We reviewed the literature of colonic ischemia related to the use of systemic nasal decongestants phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine.
A new method to identify the mass parameters of spacecraft

Published: October 2020

A two-step identification method is proposed, both the moment of inertia and the mass properties are identified. A new index parameter which is different from the commonly used condition number is first defined for designing the optimal excitation. A method is introduced based on the least squares algorithm. Detailed mathematical equations and numerical analysis are proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed method can identify the mass parameters of spacecraft.
Synapses, networks, brain development – funding basic neuroscience research in Germany by the Schram Foundation
Authors: Schulte Dorothea , Rosenmund Christian , Gundelfinger Eckart D.
Published: October 2020

Research driven solely by curiosity and the desire to understand fundamental principles of brain function. The freedom to address important questions with bold, sometimes risky experiments. A platform for open scientific exchange and discussions at highest academic level to provide new impulses to the field. And a growing number of scientists who share the passion for neuroscience and who join forces to tackle some of the big mysteries that surround the brain. These visions together with the deep conviction that basic research is the fundament needed for any progress in applied science motivated Dr. Armin Schram to create the foundation that carries his name. They are also the ideals that the foundation still pursues, and to date, 26 research proposals designed by individual researchers or small teams have been, or are, supported in this spirit. Here, we introduce the reader to the individual scientists who were awarded grants by the Schram Foundation over the years, highlight some of the many discoveries made in the course of their studies and list some of the key publications that arose from this work.

It analyses some of the challenges to building internationalsolidarity at Brazilian-based multinational mining firm Vale. Engaging with labour geography andlabour movement renewal scholarship, the article explores how identity formation andinstitutional structures interact to shape workers’ understandings of their interests and capacities.In particular, it considers the impact of national identity as it arose in response to the issue offoreign ownership during the interviews. The findings suggest that attempts by the union todiscursively reframe workers’ struggle against their new multinational employer have yet to fullycontend with the persistence of spatially bound forms of working-class identity and interestsamong workers in the sample.KEYWORDS: international solidarity; discursive framing; spatial interests; national identity; nickel mining

Published: October 2020

The durability of concrete structures in a marine environment depends on the migration speed of chloride ions in concrete. In general, marine concrete is under the effect of multiple mechanisms of chloride ions and external load (increase the density of internal cracks and affect chloride ion transport), and the single transmission mechanism or calculation model under the condition of external load has certain limitations. Simultaneously, the transport of chloride ions in concrete is closely related to its pore structure. Therefore, a mesoscopic model was presented based on changes of pore structures for calculating the influence of different transmission mechanisms on chloride and external loads. The results show that the new mesoscopic model has high accuracy in the short period of time and the comprehensive calculation of the simulation on chloride ion transport (especially for the presence of external loads).

A more resilient adaptation to changing climate calls for crop diversification in vineyards, too. As a contribution to the H2020 collaborative project of the European Union, called Diverfarming, and part of the agroecological experiments during 2018 and 2019, grapevine biomass growth was monitored in connection with carbon storage types in soil and in the deposits removed by soil erosion. Phenometry was carried out interpreting segmented images to follow changes in biomass. It was found that crop growth could be best described by the Richards growth function. The distinction between grapevine and intercrop growth, however, requires further refinement in image analysis. In the laboratory TOC and Ntotal were measured for both the soil and the plant organs as well as for the eroded sediments. Greenhouse gas emissions and photosynthesis were monitored. Looking at the change of Leaf Area Index (LAI) over the growing period, image analysis pointed out the role of cut shoots from pruning in the C and N cycles. Maximum leaf area (at ripening) for guyot cultivation technique was extimated at 7,840 m2 ha-1. Soil loss by erosion was established by sediment traps at the end of vinestock rows. The grain size distribution analysis led to the remarkable result that as erosion proceeded, the ratio of the sand fraction increased but remained within the range for the textural class of loam. Organic matter contents grew to 38 g kg-1. The rate of soil erosion is higher in ploughed than in grassed interrows by orders of magnitude.

Published: October 2020

This research continues in the line of several previous studies in the micro-analysis of therapy dialogues that are making the abstract tenets of social constructionism directly observable. Here, we report the design and results of a microanalysis of calibration sequences in a therapy dialogue focused on a client's preferred future. This study makes observable how the therapist and client display their understanding to each other moment by moment in their miracle question conversation and tracks what content (i.e., meanings or understandings) are being co-constructed and accumulated utterance by utterance in their interaction. Implications for social constructionism, psychotherapy dialogues generally, future research, and practice effectiveness are discussed.
Surviving the NDH
Authors: Cohen Erik
Published: October 2020

This autoethnography is an account of the survival of a Mischling (half-Jew) of the genocidal NDH (Independent State of Croatia) Ustasha regime, against the background of the persecution of Jews during the Second World War. It dwells upon the collapse of a young Jew’s world with the German occupation and the creation of that regime, his religious conversion, and his and his family’s precarious daily life under the latent existential threat posed by the regime. It stresses the tensions between external conformity and internal resistance against the regime, dwells upon the author’s liminal state of suspension between worlds, and asserts that the wartime experience left lasting marks on his sense of personal identity: he remained a partial outsider, never fully identified with, or belonging to a group, but able to adapt to wherever he lived, resembling in many respects Simmel’s “stranger.” The author believes that his experience of suspension between cultures reflect those of other adolescent Michlinge in the War, but the absence of similar autoethnographies precludes a confirmation of this assumption.
CO-GASIFICATION OF COAL AND EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH (EFB) IN AN ENTRAINED FLOW GASIFICATION PROCESS
Authors: Wan Ismail Wan Muhamad Syafiq , Abdul Rasid Ruwaida
Published: October 2020

In Malaysia, empty fruit bunch (EFB) is one of the major biomass source from the palm oil industry. It is an environmental friendly, renewable and sustainable source of energy, which may be used to generate electricity and other forms of energy. EFB may be converted into synthesis gas (syngas) through the gasification process, or mixed with coal through the co-gasification process. Raw EFB usually consists of high moisture content and low energy density compared to coal. Having a mixture of biomass and coal is one of the method to increase the efficiency of the biomass gasification process. Hence, it is the objective of this work to investigate the co-gasification of coal and EFB at various process conditions, whereby, an entrained flow gasifier was used to investigate the effect of the gasification temperature in the range of 700°C – 900°C, for various coal-EFB mixtures on the syngas composition. The produced gas was collected and quantified using gas chromatography. It was found that when the mass ratio of coal to EFB was increased, the production of hydrogen (H2), carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) also increases. Besides that, the carbon conversion and the higher heating value (HHV) of the gas products also increases with increasing in mass ratio of coal-EFB mixtures. The highest cold gas efficiency (CGE) recorded for coal mixture is 2.72 MJ/m3. Thus, this shows the potential in co-gasification for producing alternative energy to the conventional fossil fuel resources that is depleting.

Black and white peppers are functional crops, used in food industries as spice and in traditional medicine, for the treatment of many degenerative diseases. This study investigated the influence of microwave heating on the extraction yield, energy absorption and dietary elemental composition of oleoresin extracts from black and white pepper. Under the largest donating rule, the maximum extract yield obtained was 48.22 mg/g from black pepper and 79.02 mg/g from white pepper microwave. The study therefore elucidated the energy absorption capacities in microwave heating and itsresultant effects on extraction yield. This clearly showed the potentials of microwave technology in obtaining high quality extracts with properly controlled parameters.

During oil production and processing emulsions were formed and seriously cause problem, both in terms of chemicals used and production losses. The traditional methods of breaking crude oil emulsions are disadvantageous from both economic and environmental perspectives. In this paper, the potentials of electrocoagulation technology in demulsification of crude oil emulsion were investigated. The crude oil obtained from Petronas Ponapean Melaka, Malaysia. For stability performance test, Span 80 was used as emulsifier, while for chemical demulsification performance test,Hexylamine was used. The electrocoagulation method was used for demulsification of W/O emulsion. For electrocoagulation demulsification, three factors namely; voltages 15-50 V, current density 1.04-3.94 mAcm-2, and concentration of NaCl 0.5-2.5 g/L. The electrocoagulation demulsification showed that the best water separation efficiency was achieved at voltage 50 V, current density 3.94 mAcm-2, and NaCl concentration 2.5 g/L, whereas the separation efficiency reached at 98%. Results have shown the potential of electrocoagulation method in separation of water-in-crude oil emulsions, W/O.

Billions of barrels of oil and gas are consumed around the world daily and these oil and gas are being mainly transported and distributed through pipelines. The pipelines are demonstrably safe and are reliable systems to transport hydrocarbons, owing to the combination of good design, materials, and operating practices. However, if the pipeline fail, it is one of the most frustrating issues as its significant adverse would impact environment and public safety as well as severe economic loss. The objective of this study is to construct a cause and effect relationship framework of pipeline failure due to human factor using Bayesian Network (BN) approach. The potential human factors of the pipeline failure linked to corrosion were identified and categorized into three categories that are maintenance, monitoring, and operational errors. The predictive and diagnosis analyses of the Bayesian Network were performed to find the casual links which cause the failure in the system and make a prediction of the control measures to reduce the rate of the human mistakes. Results revealed that operational error showed a significant effect when the system operates beyond the limits of its design. In conclusion, Bayesian Networks appear to be a solution to build an effective oil and gas pipeline human error management model by providing information about the important human error that needs to be controlled. Thus, this framework may assist the decision maker to decide when and where to take preventive or mitigate measures in the risk management process of a pipeline.
