Impacto socio ambiental de la calidad del agua del río Portoviejo en el período 2014-2017
Authors: Quiroz Fernández Luis Santiago , Ortiz Hernández Eduardo Humberto , Moreno Yépez Ider Nexar
Published: April 2019

El presente trabajo evalúa los impactos socio ambientales negativos causados por la contaminación del agua del río Portoviejo en la provincia de Manabí, Ecuador. Varios estudios desarrollados sobre esta problemática indican que el vertimiento de aguas residuales sobre su cauce, los asentamientos humanos no planificados en sus riveras y el vertimiento de desechos sólidos, han provocado el deterioro paulatino de este importante efluente natural. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que el tener un agua de mala calidad incide en elevados costos para el tratamiento del agua utilizada para consumo humano, el mismo que es asumido por la población en los pagos de consumo por este servicio, a esto se adiciona la no producción agrícola en la zona y la necesidad de poder implementar un plan de manejo ambiental para la recolección y disposición final de los desechos sólidos generados por la población, así como de evaluar el funcionamiento de la planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales de la ciudad de Portoviejo.

to determine the average annual rainfall at a specific site in a basin, it is necessary to count with rainfall information in the study area and topographic information. Counting with base information, is comes to the filling of them data missing with the help of any of them methods statistical existing for the effect. With the full series are determined values average annual rainfall for the rainfall stations studied. On the other hand, with the geographic location of the stations and maps of the areas of study Thiessen polygons are built. Then, with Thiessen polygons, study basin area and values of average annual rainfall determines the rainfall for the area of study. Based on this procedure, may be elaborated isohyet or curves of equal rainfall, that are an input that can help also to estimate of precipitation in a specific geographical site. Here is a methodology that allows creating with the help of geographic information systems (GIS), a mathematical model to estimate very accurately the values of rainfall based only on the geographical coordinates. To achieve this objective, the basins of the Hydrographic Demarcation of Manabí (Ecuador) have been chosen to develop the indicated mathematical model, which can be applied to other basins in the world.

Published: April 2019

In the presented work, an analysis of the use of artificial intelligence is proposed, as a way to solve the problems that arise in the daily work of electrical networks. By implementing the distributed generation with contributions from generating elements with the incorporation of renewable energy sources in them, as well as connection of consumer elements in different points of the network, conflicts are established regarding the transmission of electrical energy in the different scenarios. It is therefore essential to manage the direction in which energy is transmitted in the network, as well as the organized connection and disconnection of each of the elements, the creation of intelligent decision-making elements, to what is called Intelligent Electrical Network (Smart Grids). For the decision making it is proposed to use artificial intelligence techniques, and according to the experience in the work of transmission lines it has been selected to work with the topology of radial-based neural networks to undertake the different tasks regarding the intelligent decision.

Published: April 2019

Abstract— La señalética es una disciplina del diseño gráfico relacionada con la comunicación; es la información que estudia y desarrolla un sistema de comunicación visual, que es reducido a un conjunto de señales o símbolos gráficos de fácil compresión, los cuales cumplen la función de guiar a una persona o conjunto de personas en aquellos puntos o lugares donde se prestan servicios o se planteen dudas acerca del comportamiento.

El objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar los lugares más afectados por la escasez de señalización dentro de la Universidad Técnica de Manabí (UTM) y los tipos de señaléticas adecuadas para estos. Para ello, se utilizó las principales técnicas de recolección de información, en las cuales se aplicaron los métodos cualitativos y cuantitativos.

La población de esta investigación, como antes mencionada, es la UTM, de la cual se tomó como muestra un 20% que es perteneciente a las facultades de Medicina, Electricidad, Idiomas y el Instituto de Ciencias Básicas (ICB)

Con los resultados obtenidos se demostró que el tema de la investigación realizada es de interés entre los involucrados, reconociendo la falta de señaléticas en diferentes puntos, lo cual está provocando el irrespeto de los conductores hacia los peatones o ciclistas, corroborando con ello la necesidad de cubrir diferentes áreas con señales que disminuyan el riesgo en el interior de la universidadn.

Estudio de la Eficiencia de los sistemas fotovoltaicos y su impacto socio económico en la zona rural del Cantón Chone, Manabí, Ecuador
Authors: Vélez Quiroz Alcira Magdalena
Published: April 2019

Abstract— Con la política trazada por el Ecuador direccionada hacia la concientización del “buen vivir” del socialismo del Siglo XXI, la empresa eléctrica ha considerado lograr un impacto social relevante mediante la oferta de energía a las poblaciones que viven en áreas rurales apartadas de la red eléctrica. Esta voluntad ha propiciado que en algunos casos se realicen proyectos de electrificación rural, que presentan impactos socio-económicos negativos, dadas las pérdidas energéticas y la baja calidad con la que se presta el servicio al usuario. En la provincia de Manabí existen potenciales de fuentes renovables de energía, que se encuentran disponibles en forma distribuida en todo el territorio. El potencial solar es uno de ellos, que presenta niveles de intensidad y calidad para nada depreciables y que puede ser aprovechado en la generación de electricidad, tanto mediante sistemas conectado a la red, como en sistemas autónomos para la electrificación rural, el bombeo de agua o la iluminación pública.

En las comunidades estudiadas, la empresa eléctrica ha cumplido con llevar el servicio de energía eléctrica mediante la extensión de la red para uso de la población, logrando un impacto social que ha propiciado el agradecimiento de los pobladores que reconocen el esfuerzo realizado por la Revolución Ciudadana; aun cuando el impacto económico no es el adecuado y donde a pesar del esfuerzo no se logran los resultados esperados en cuanto a la calidad del servicio. En los trabajos de campo se ha podido comprobar, que en las zonas beneficiadas se brinda un servicio eléctrico con baja calidad, dada la inestabilidad de los parámetros de tensión y frecuencia, que tienen su origen en la excesiva extensión de la red eléctrica desde los centros de generación hidráulica ubicados en el centro del país, donde además se reportan grandes pérdidas. En el trabajo se ofrecen criterios de factibilidad técnico-económica, que permiten vislumbrar las vías más adecuadas desde el punto de vista socio-económico para lograr la electrificación de las comunidades rurales aisladas en el municipio Chone.

Manly Minds in Female Bodies: Three Women and their Power through Coins and Seals
Authors: Jasperse Jitske
Published: April 2019

This article investigates coins and seals as instruments that reflect the desire for self-representation and remembrance of ruling women. An analysis of these small but important objects connected to Queen Urraca of León-Castilla (r. 1109-1126), Empress Matilda of England (r.1135-1154), and Duchess Bertha of Lorraine (r. 1176-1194/95), will show that they each constructed the visual image of their rule by employing a masculine iconography to craft their identities. Originating directly from the power these lordly women, their coins and seals convey how they represented themselves and consequently how they wished to be recognized and recollected. As such, these objects were part of a wider medieval memorial culture to which the creation of artefacts and architecture was crucial.
La vantasselite, Al4(PO4)3(OH)3.9H2O, une nouvelle espèce minérale du Massif de Stavelot, Belgique
Authors: Fransolet André-Mathieu
Published: April 2019

Vantasselite, Al4(PO4)3(OH)3.9H2O is a new mineral species discovered on the dumps of an old coticule quarry, 1 km north of Bihain, Stavelot Massif, Belgium. Associated with wavellite, variscite, cacoxenite, turquoise, clinochlore, muscovite and lithiophorite, it occurs as rosettes (up to 8 mm) of thin lamellae lining the schistosity planes or the diaclases of the Salmian metapelites of Cambro-Ordovician age, or as spherical aggregates (up to 3 mm) of fan-like stacked lamellae in quartz veinlets of the coticule rocks.

Vantasselite is white and the isolated lamellar crystals are transparent. The lustre is pearly on the perfect micaceous cleavage (001). The lamellae are slightly flexible and break along an imperfect cleavage (010). The crystals are generally elongated along [100], flattened along [001], and terminated by {120} . Hardness : 2-2.5. Measured density = 2.30 ; calculated specific gravity = 2.312 g/cm3 for Z = 8. The mineral is biaxial negative with γ = 1.578, β = 1.560, α (calc.) = 1.511, and 2V = (-)61° ; X//c, Y//b and Z//a. Vantasselite is orthorhombic, space group Pma2, Pmam or P21am ; a = 10.528, b = 16.541 and c = 20.373 Å. The strongest X-ray diffraction lines are (d , I/I0, hkl) : 10.22(10)002 ; 4.87(3)211, 014 ; 3.720(3)223 ; 3.395(4)006 ; 3.210(4)044,241 ; 2.892(5)036 ; 2.741(3)244, 027 ; 2.394(4)335.

The average of 9 microprobe analyses gives : P2O5 33.47 % ; SO3 0.35 % ; Al2O3 30.46 % ; Fe2O3 5.22 % ; weight loss at 1000 °C 30.83 % ; total 100.33 %. A wet chemical analysis gives : P2O5 32.9 % ; Al2O3 26.5 % ; Fe2O3 6.5 % ; MgO 0.05 % ; H2O 29.0 % ; total 94.95 %. The infrared spectrum is similar to that of vashegyite. Some data on the thermal behaviour are given.

Vantasselite is a phosphate with a sheet structure, like vashegyite and matulaite. Relationships with these minerals are discussed.

The name honours Professor R. Van Tassel (Bruxelles and Leuven). The description and the name were approved by the I.M.A.
Etude infrarouge des modes vibrationnels de l'eau dans la vivianite
Authors: Piriou Bernard , Poullen Jean-François
Published: April 2019

Single crystals and powdered samples of vivianite Fe3(PO4)2.8H2O have been investigated using infrared spectroscopy. A detailed theoretical study enables the identification of the main vibrational modes related to the water molecules. The polarized infrared reflectivity of a cleavage plate of vivianite has been studied for various orientations. Knowledge of the electrical dipole positions, leads to the assignment of the observed bands : ν3(WI)=3125 cm-1 ; ν',(WII)=3260 cm-1 ; ν'3(WII)=3475 cm-1 ; ν2=1620 cm-1 in agreement with the site symmetry method expectations. It is thus possible to correlate these spectra with the infrared absorption data obtained for powdered samples of vivianites in various stages of oxidation. Static and dynamical disorders are shown.
7, 10 and 14 Å mixed-layer phyllosilicates studied structurally by TEM in pelitic rocks of the Piemontese zone (Venezuela)
Authors: Amouric Marc , Gianetto Ivanka , Proust Dominique
Published: April 2019

Transmission electron microscopy has been used to study the interstratification of 14 Å chlorite with a 1:1 7 Å phyllosilicate (serpentine type structure) and of 14 Å chlorite with a 2:1 10 Å phyllosilicate (mica type structure). Samples were from pelitic rocks of low grade metamorphism in the Piemontese zone (Venezuela). The 7 Å phase was directly observed as thick packets possibly exhibiting different stacking sequences and, more frequently, as isolated layers intercalated within 14 Å chlorite layers. Such a 7 Å phase is probably a precursor of the 14 Å chlorite. Various interlayered mica- 14 Å chlorite structures were also observed as intermediate states of mica chloritization. In particular, a solid state transformation mechanism, such as a mica layer laterally changing into a chlorite layer (a 1:1 reaction) with increasing volume, as proposed by Olives et al. (1983), was evidenced. Lastly during this study, particular attention was paid to contrast details of TEM images which are very sensitive to experimental parameters (defocus, specimen thickness and orientation,...). Even the use of simple lattice fringe images is to be done with great care, specially for a 7-Å/14-Å mixed multiple layers study. Examples show that, as soon as optimum imaging conditions are left, one-dimensional image analysis of 7 Å and 14 Å phases may be erroneous or ambiguous and such phases confused.

Masallar kolektif bilinçdışının
yansıdığı en sıra dışı metinlerdir. Bu yansıtma, kültürel süreklilik içinde,
halkın hayat felsefesine, zihniyetine, yaşama biçimine, insanî ilişkilerine,
davranışlarına ve tecrübelerine dair pek çok unsuru ihtiva eder. Kültürel
süreklilik tanımı ise, bireylerin ve toplumların tekâmül süreçlerinin takibinde
masal anlatılarının taşıdığı rol ve eğitimsel işlevleriyle ilgili
görünmektedir. Bu vasıflarının dışında masallar ile ilgili olarak yapılan
çalışmaların bilimsel ölçütlerle incelenmesi, tarihî verilerle değerlendirilmesi
konusu sosyo-kültürel bağlam çözümlemelerinin önünü açacağı gibi yeni felsefe
ve fikirlerin üretimine de malzeme taşıyacak konumdadır. Kültür, bir toplumun
maddi ve metafizik alanlara verdiği değerlerin toplamı ise halk masallarında
yer alan ve kültürel aktarımla bağlantılı olan semboller dünyası, tipler ve
motifler öncelikle bireylerin sonrasında ise toplumların gelişiminde ayna
hüviyeti taşır görülmektedir.

Bu makalede; Anadolu sahası Türk
masalları arasında sayılan ve masal külliyatımız içinde önemli bir yer edinen Billur
Köşk masalları hakkındaki araştırmalar ele alınmaktadır. Ayrıca mevcut çalışmalar
içinde özgün bir yeri olan Menzel’in Billur Köschk (Billur Köşk) adlı eseri Georg Jacob’un son sözüyle birlikte değerlendirilmiştir.
Yabancı Türkolog ve oryantalistlerin bizim kültürümüze ve folklorumuza bakış
açıları hakkında bir fikir edinmemize yardımcı olabilecek nitelikteki bu eser,
Billur Köşk masallarının yabancı bir dile çevrildiği ilk yayın olması
bakımından da önemlidir. Bunun dışında Menzel ve Jacob öncülüğünde Türk masal
motifleri ile ilgili olarak ortaya sürülen fikirlerin kültürel etkileşimler ve
masalın urformu ile ilgili bilimsel mecralarda yürütülen görüşlerle bağlantılı olduğu
görünmektedir.

Türk
edebiyatında Salâmân u Absâl mesnevisinin tek örneğini Lâmiʽî Çelebi vermiştir.
Câmî’nin birçok eserini tercüme ettiği için Câmî-i Rûm lakabı ile tanınan Lâmiʽi
Çelebi, Salâmân u Absâl mesnevisini Câmî’nin aynı adı taşıyan eserinden tercüme
etmiştir. Lâmiʽî’nin Salâmân u Absâl’ı, te’lif-tercüme bir eserdir. Konu bakımından
Câmî ile Lâmiʽî’nin arasında hikâyenin ana hatlarında bir değişiklik yoktur.
Lâmiʽî, mesneviye 5 gazel,1 murabba ve 1 mersiye ilave etmiştir. 

Salâmân u
Absâl’ın Yunan kaynaklı bir hikâye olduğu ve  Salâmân ve Absâl’ın  Süleymân ve Abşâlum’dan bozma Süryanice bir
isim oldukları, Batı dünyasında şekil ve cinsiyet değiştirerek
hikâyeleştirildikleri görüşleri vardır. Fakat bu makalede buna değinilmeyecek

Planning for Peace; Introduction of Transboundary Conservation Areas
Authors: POUYA Sahar , POUYA Sima
Published: April 2019

The idea of conserving borderlands has been founded to mitigate the issues around the political borders. Similarly, “Transboundary Conserved Area” or “Peace Park” has been created to protect the environmental resources and precious biodiversity over the political borders as well as enhancing international cooperation through harmonizing resource management approaches. There are various forms of the peace parks created all around the world especially in Africa. Even though various kinds of these parks are created, the subject seems interesting and new in Asian and Middle East countries. Thus, this research aims to provide a comprehensive view of the subject that can be practical for the urban and environmental planners. Trying to determine their functions; this research explains seven operated projects as examples of Transboundary Conserved Area. To gain information, desk research is used, which collects secondary data from the available sources. Regarding data analysis, it shows how these parks contribute to the ecological improvement and other political, economic, and cultural benefits. The results of the cases’ surveys demonstrate a tangible consideration on ecosystem conservation, while other functions defined to the peace parks and peacemaking have been underestimated and partially ignored.

Published: April 2019

Water is an important of life. When it is polluted, it disturbs not only human but also aquatic life. There are no of chemicals that contaminate the water. Industries generate different types of chemicals, which pollute the water. Effluent from these industries contains heavy metals, BOD, COD and phenolic compounds. Water pollution is a very serious issue. Different ways are available to treat the waste water. Flocculation, sedimentation, coagulation, photolysis and electrochemical methods are used for treatment of waste water. Phenolic compounds are the most harmful chemicals present as contamination in waste water. Phenolic compound accompanied with chlorine can exist as mono-chlorophenol, di-chlorophenol and tri-chlorophenol. These compounds are very carcinogenic in nature so their presence is dangerous for human as well as aquatic life. In this research electrochemical method is used to treat o-chlorophenol. Effect of electrodes, voltages and treating times on the removal efficiency have been studied. Stander sample of 100ppm from stock material have been prepared as an analogues to the waste water of industries. HPLC/UV detector is used to analyze the treatment effects. Graphite electrode, 20 volts and 20 min operating time is the most effective parameters that removes about 60% of the initial concentration of 2-CP (ortho-chlorophenol).

Authors: Lesauskiene E. , Dučinskas K.
Published: April 2019

In this article we have used wide applicable classes of spatio‐temporal nonseparable and separable covariance models. One of the objectives of this paper is to furnish a possibility how to avoid the usage of complicated covariance functions. Assuming regression model for mean function the analytical expressions for the optimal linear prediction (universal kriging) and mean squared prediction error (MSPE) was obtained. Parameterized spatio‐temporal covariance functions were fitted for the real data. Prediction values and MSPE were presented. For visualization of results on graphics are used free available software Gstat.

Humanity and the 21 st century’s resource gauntlet: a commentary on Ripple et al.’s article “World scientists’ warning to humanity: a second notice”
Authors: Kayal Mohsen , Lewis Hannah , Ballard Jane , Kayal Ehsan
Published: April 2019

A year ago, Ripple et al.’s “Warning to Humanity” was published (Ripple et al. 2017), reigniting debate on the importance of addressing the environmental crisis that humanity will increasingly face in the 21st century. While we fully endorse the pertinence of this initiative, we identify critical gaps which impede the capacity of this call to action in fostering the positive change that humanity needs. With our present manuscript, we provide a complementary assessment to Ripple et al.’s article for addressing the current environmental crisis, as well as some alternative paths forward. We emphasize the importance of considering historical patterns and underlying drivers of the current global socio-ecosystem, particularly in relation to social inequalities, human demography, and food production systems. Without such considerations, several of the steps proposed in the warning might be interpreted as prescriptions from a western-biased vision of our global socio-ecosystem, undermining the fundamental message of this unique initiative for achieving sustainability.
Influence of beta-blockers on mechanical dyssynchrony and cardiac remodeling in patients with ischemic chronic heart failure in the setting of revascularization
Authors: Askari Irina V. , Osipova Olga A.
Published: April 2019

Introduction: Diastolic dysfunction (DD) and cardiac dyssynchrony (DS) are involved in the progression of chronic heart failure (CHF). A comparative analysis was conducted of the effect of a 6-month course of nebivolol and bisopr­olol on DD, DS and metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) level in patients with ischemic chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and with midrange ejection fraction (HFmrEF), as well as in patients with comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the setting of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) after 6 months of therapy.

Materials and methods: The study included 308 patients with CHF FC I-II, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >40%, who had undergone CABG. The average dose of nebivolol in patients with DS 6 months later was 5.1±2.6 mg/day, and bisoprolol – 4.9±2.4 mg/day. Echocardiography (EchoCG) and evaluation of MMP-9 in blood plasma were performed. Mechanical myocardial asynchrony was determined by calculating the standard deviation of time to peak systolic myocardial velocity (TS-SD) and maximum segment delay (TS12) using a 6-basal and-midsegment model.

Results and discussion: MMP-9 level in patients with CHF before CABG was 4.7 times higher (p<0.001). MMP-9 correlated with LVEF (r=-0.60, p<0.001), E/A (r=-0.49, p<0.001), DT (r=0.43, p<0.001), E` (r=-0.58, p<0.001) and DS: TS12 (r=0.54, p<0.001), TS-SD (r=0.49, p<0.001). The six-month course of nebivolol improved the values of DS: TS12 – by 30% (p<0.001), TS-SD – by 32% (p<0.01) and reduced the MMP-9 level by 11% (p<0.001). In patients with HFmrEF without DS nebivolol increased E/A by 19% (p<0.01), E` – by 16% (P<0.05), and decreased E/E’ by 9% (p<0.05), DT – by 12% (p<0.05). In patients with HFpEF and DM2, nebivolol reduced TS12 by 37% (p<0.01), TS-SD – by 29% (p<0.05) and MMP-9 – by 13% (p<0.05).

Conclusion: The positive effect of nebivolol on the DS, DD of the LV in patients with HFpEF, HFmrEF and with comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus. The six-month course of nebivolol decreased the MMP-9 level in patients with ischemic CHF after CABG, including patients with T2DM.

Objective.

Scleroderma renal crisis (SRC) is a severe life-threatening manifestation in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). However, the knowledge about risk factors for SRC is limited. We determined here the frequency of SRC and identified risk factors for the prediction of SRC.

Methods.

Based on regular followup data from the German Network for Systemic Scleroderma, we used univariate and multivariate generalized estimating equations to analyze the association between clinical variables, SSc subsets, therapy [i.e., angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi), corticosteroids], and the occurrence of SRC.

Results.

Data of 2873 patients with 10,425 visits were available for analysis with a mean number of registry visits of 3.6 ± 2.8 and a mean time of followup of 3.6 ± 3.8 years. In total, 70 patients developed SRC (70/2873, 2.4%). Of these patients, 57.1% (40/70) were diagnosed with diffuse cutaneous SSc, 31.4% (22/70) with limited cutaneous SSc, and 11.4% (8/70) with SSc-overlap syndromes. Predictive independent factors with the highest probability for SRC were positive anti-RNA polymerase antibodies (RNAP), a history of proteinuria prior to SRC onset, diminished DLCO, and a history of hypertension. Interestingly, positive antitopoisomerase autoantibodies did not predict a higher risk for SRC. Further, patients with SRC were significantly more frequently treated with ACEi and corticosteroids without being independently associated with SRC.

Conclusion.

In this cohort, SRC has become a rare complication. By far the highest risk for SRC was associated with the detection of anti-RNAP and proteinuria.

Published: April 2019

Objective.

Evaluate enthesitis, physical function, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) who are naive to anti–tumor necrosis factor agents.

Methods.

In PSUMMIT 1 and 2, patients with PsA were randomized to placebo or ustekinumab 45 mg or 90 mg. Enthesitis was assessed at weeks 0 and 24 (Maastricht Ankylosing Spondylitis Enthesitis Score). Assessments included Health Assessment Questionnaire–Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) physical component summary/mental component summary (PCS/MCS), and American College of Rheumatology 20 (ACR20).

Results.

At Week 24, 21 had worsened enthesitis, 158 had improved enthesitis, and 412 had unchanged enthesitis. Improved enthesitis was associated with improvements in HAQ-DI and SF-36 MCS. Results were similar for ACR20 responders and nonresponders.

Conclusion.

Improvement in enthesitis at Week 24 was associated with improvements in physical function/HRQOL regardless of ACR20 response.
