The Word as an Icon
Authors: Leonard Stephen
Published: July 2021

How do Russian Orthodox Christians frame their understanding of semiotic ideologies of worship? That is to say, how do worshippers interpret liturgical language ‘signs’ and how do these interpretations colour their views as to which language is ‘right’ for the Church? There are to be found two semiotic ideologies of worship in Moscow. There are traditionalists for whom the liturgical language is embodied; it becomes the language of God through its vocalisation and enactment. Then, there are those who believe that Church Slavonic is not an indelible part of Russian Orthodox life and that in terms of its semiotic status its relation to the world it represents is an arbitrary one. Those who invoke the former, folk understandings of semiotic praxis perceive the Holy language as an icon or experiential portal that makes the presence of God more presupposable. Conceptions of language and linguistic register vary intra-culturally. Fieldwork showed how different perceptions of form map onto consciousness, raising questions of intentionality as assumptions about who is speaking (God or the priest) are bound up with the form that is used.

Maisematason geodiversiteetti Suomessa
Authors: Tukiainen Helena , Hjort Jan
Published: July 2021

The diversity of nature consists of two complementary components: biological diversity (biodiversity) and abiotic diversity (geodiversity). Biodiversity is widely acknowledged in both research, and conservation and management practices, whereas geodiversity (the variety of abiotic features and processes of the land surface and subsurface) is just emerging as a research and practical issue. In this study, we introduce the geodiversity concept in Finnish context and explore how landscape-scale geodiversity varies in Finland and between Finnish municipalities. In addition, we study how geodiversity varies between nature areas and human impacted areas and how Finnish strict nature reserves and national parks succeed in capturing geodiversity. According to the results, there is distinct geographical variation in geodiversity in Finland. The geodiversity of municipalities varies through the country but, on average, municipalities in the southern and northern parts of the country have especially high geodiversity values. Interestingly, human impacted areas have slightly higher geodiversity than nature areas. Nature conservation areas manage especially well in capturing geomorphological richness. This study emphasizes the need for the investigation of geodiversity on a national and sub-national level. Study of geodiversity provides information on nature beyond current biodiversity-focused perspectives, which can be further utilized in e.g., land-use and nature conservation planning.

Published: July 2021

THE PURPOSE. To justify the need to use an arc breakdown protection device (ABPD) in electrical networks up to 0.4 kV, in order to reduce the number of fires. To analyze the existing types of damage, compare the protection devices against various types of damage in electrical networks up to 0.4 kV. To consider the requirements for ABPD, as well as the main characteristics of protection devices and types of execution. To determine the area of application of the ABPD in electrical installations for various purposes. METHODS. To solve the problems associated with the peculiarities of the arc processes in various electrical circuits and the lack of criteria for many key parameters in terms of the requirements and applicability of the ABPD, it was proposed to conduct a series of tests for specific network parameters in order to understand whether a case can really take place in the current power system when ABPD will not work properly. RESULTS. A test bench has been developed for testing the protection devices against arc breakdown and spark gaps for the effectiveness of operation for specific network conditions, instructions for its operation are given. CONCLUSION. It has been established that a sequential arc breakdown can only switch off an arc breakdown protection device (ABPD) and, accordingly, increase the safety of operation of electrical networks up to 0.4 kV in order to reduce fires caused by violation of the rules for the design and operation of electrical equipment. The proposed device for testing protection devices against arc breakdown and spark gaps allows you to control the fact of mandatory operation of the ultrasonic detector for a certain time and formulate the requirements necessary for the design of power grids.

To establish the integral reaction of the AM group during self-start to the disturbing effect, taking into account their characteristics and duration to establish the permissible limit values of the NEC. To develop an algorithm for the transient process of self-starting of the AM group when using matrix and vector data representation when solving the basic equation of the rotor motion and its computer implementation. METHODS. When solving the problem, the following methods were used: successive approximations when solving the basic electromechanical equation, taking into account electromagnetic transient processes; Gauss-Seidel method with accelerating the convergence of the iterative process when solving the equations of the parameters of the regime; method of nodal stresses. The algorithm is implemented in VBA and tested in Matlab Simulink. RESULTS. The article describes the relevance of the topic, considers a model of AM according to catalog data, an algorithm for self-starting a group of an AM with NEC and external short circuits, taking into account electromagnetic transient processes, which has high accuracy and is convenient for practical use. CONCLUSION. The use of asynchronous motor catalogs makes it possible not to carry out laborious preliminary calculations of the parameters of asynchronous motors. The application of the Gauss-Seidel method with acceleration of convergence provides a decrease in the number of iterations. Taking into account electromagnetic transients and the effect of displacement of the rotor current allows you to evaluate the mutual influence of motors and increase the accuracy of calculations. The use of the method of nodal voltages makes it possible to determine the residual voltage on the busbar section with AM, if at the first moment the motors are switched on to short circuit. The implementation of the algorithm in the VBA environment is convenient for practical use.

Published: July 2021

Glock Inc. recently replaced the Enhanced Bullet Identiﬁcation System (EBIS) with what Glock refers to as the Glock Marking Barrel. Casts and test ﬁred bullets from thirty-ﬁve Glock Marking Barrels were evaluated for subclass and individual characteristics. It was determined that the barrels had subclass carryover from barrel to barrel manufactured using the same mandrel. However, identiﬁcation of a ﬁred bullet back to the barrel/ﬁrearm that ﬁred it was still possible using speciﬁc areas of the ﬁred bullet. Due to the fact that this type of barrel will be used in all models of Glock pistols, an examiner should be aware of which areas of a ﬁred bullet may have a high potential for subclass characteristics.

Published: July 2021

The control over the circulation of plants containing narcotic drugs or psychotropic substances (or their precursors) is one of the most critical aspects of the ﬁght against drug crime. The forensic botanical examination uses classical morphological and anatomical analysis methods, which are not always informative enough when identifying species membership of shredded and degraded plant objects; similarly, they do not allow to establish their individual-speciﬁc identity. The molecular genetic methods of plant analysis and the comparative databases could serve as valuable tools for law enforcement purposes. In particular, in the production of forensic molecular genetic analysis of narcotic plants presented in powder, it is crucial to determine the taxonomic aﬃliation of the objects since this information aﬀects the qualiﬁcation of the crime. As a case the author presents the materials of an additional forensic examination conducted in the Russian Federal Centre of Forensic Science of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation, the results of which had a signiﬁcant impact on the qualiﬁcation of the committed oﬀense.

Objective This study aimed to validate the Korean version of a short screening tool for psychosis as the first stage in finding undiagnosed psychosis in the community.Methods The sample contained 126 consecutive psychiatric outpatients in National Medical Center, Seoul, Korea, between July 20 and July 22, 2020. The Psychosis Screener (PS) comprises 7 items covering psychotic symptoms. The presence of each psychotic symptom was determined by a trained mental health professional and coded “yes” or “no.” Two psychiatrists reviewed the medical records independently and extracted the ICD-10-based diagnoses. Any differences between the two clinicians were resolved by consensus, and the agreed diagnosis was used as a gold standard in the study.Results Among 126 psychiatric outpatients who were enrolled in a consecutive manner during the study period, the proportion of psychosis was 15.1%. The PS showed 78.9% sensitivity and 72.0% specificity when the optimal cut-off was 2, indicating that a score of 2 or more on the screener identified a likely case of psychosis. The area under the curve for the PS was 0.78 (95% CI: 0.67–0.87).Conclusion The Korean version of the PS has an ability to discriminate between those who meet the diagnostic criteria for psychosis and those who do not in a high-prevalence group.

Published: July 2021

Objective Written exposure therapy (WET) is exposure therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Compared to evidencebased treatments for PTSD, WET requires only five sessions, has a shorter session time, and no between-session assignments. The current study examined the efficacy of WET among Korean patients with PTSD due to various traumatic events on PTSD symptoms, depressive symptoms, and global functioning levels.Methods The study recruited 41 patients with a current primary diagnosis of PTSD in psychiatric outpatient clinics. Assessments were conducted at baseline, and at 6, 12, and 24 weeks following the first treatment session.Results In total, 25 patients started WET. Findings showed a significant reduction in the rate of PTSD diagnosis and symptom severity scores. Fourteen of 23 (60.9%) patients at 6 weeks, 15 of 22 (68.2%) patients at 12 weeks, and 14 of 18 (77.8%) patients at 24 weeks no longer met the diagnosis of PTSD. Depressive symptoms and global function scores also improved after WET. The dropout rate was 8% (n=2).Conclusion This study suggests the feasibility of implementing WET among various types of patients with PTSD in Korea and other Asian countries.
Estruturas em aço inoxidável e a sua resistência ao fogo
Authors:   Universidade de Aveiro, Lopes Nuno , Vila Real Paulo ,   Universidade de Aveiro
Published: July 2021

A utilização do aço inoxidável no setor da construção para fins estruturais tem-se muitas vezes cingido a projetos de elevado valor arquitetónico, onde o caráter inovador das soluções adotadas pretende agregar valor à estrutura. O alto custo inicial do aço inoxidável, aliado a regras de projeto limitadas e falta de conhecimento sobre todos os benefícios da sua utilização como material estrutural, são alguns dos motivos que conduzem os projetistas a evitar a sua escolha. No entanto, análises mais aprofundadas apontam para um bom desempenho do aço inoxidável nestas aplicações. A qualidade mais relevante dos aços inoxidáveis é a sua resistência à corrosão, mas outras qualidades como a sua aparência estética, facilidade de manutenção e durabilidade, resultando num custo de ciclo de vida mais competitivo, e melhor comportamento a altas temperaturas quando comparado com o aço carbono, também são características importantes [1-4]. A menor redução das propriedades mecânicas e superior ductilidade a altas temperaturas resultam numa maior resistência ao fogo das estruturas em aço inoxidável, que é analisada e quantificada neste artigo para alguns casos de estudo.

Published: July 2021

Na última edição da revista, vigas híbridas foram apresentadas como uma aplicação interessante de aço de alta resistência (HSS). Outra aplicação possível pode ser encontrada no dimensionamento sísmico de estruturas metálicas. No dimensionamento de pórticos metálicos para ação sísmica, partes da estrutura podem chegar a sofrer deformações plásticas (membros dissipativos), enquanto outras devem permanecer mais fortes e fornecer a resistência estrutural necessária. Precisamente esses membros podem ser dimensionados em HSS e de beneficiar de soluções mais leves.

The possibility of assessing the distance from the aircraft to an operating ground-based radar based on the totality of reflections of its signals from the terrain and local objects is evaluated. The peculiarity of the measurement algorithm is that a priori it is not necessary to know from which object one or the other signal was reflected. The coordinates of the reflectors are stored in the computer memory in the form of an electronic map of the area. The position of the radio emission source is determined by the difference in the arrival times of the direct and reflected signals, as well as the bearings measured from them.

Elimelech or Abimelech? A Study on the Textual Variant of the Name of Noemin’s Husband in LXX-Ruth
Authors: Bonanno Beatrice
Published: July 2021

This paper analyses the textual variant of the name of Noemin’s husband in the book of Ruth: Elimelech according to the Masoretic Text and Abimelech according to the Septuagint. It investigates if this textual variant is linked to a different Hebrew Vorlage, whether it is carried out during the process of translation of the text in its Greek form, or whether it is due to its transmission in its Greek form. Finally, this study analyses the literary criticism of this variant by showing how a coherent character is created by name and through actions and how, in this way, God’s presence is accentuated in the narrative.
Stress Scale in the Context of Online Learning among Junior High School Students (ages 11-17): Development, Validity, and Reliability
Authors: Crispino Mardocheo , Ledesma Laarni Ann , Belaro Reyna Lou , Sasota Randolf S.
Published: July 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted an
unprecedented shift from face-to-face to online learning. Considering the
impact of this transition, the researchers developed a scale measuring the
stress levels of 319 junior high school students. Based on the evaluation of
experts, the item content validity index (I-CVI) proved the validity of each
item. From the original 32, 20 items were retained after conducting exploratory
factor analysis (EFA). A new clustering was derived from the results, namely:
(1) physical health, (2) task management, (3) valuing, and (4) relating to
oneself and others. The final 20-item scale was proven to have internal
consistency among items with Cronbach’s alpha of 0.923. The results of
measurement invariance (MI) tests indicate that the newly developed four-factor
stress scale in the context of online learning measure the same underlying
constructs across sex, grade level, and age groups. Consequently, the
differences in stress levels among the groups were also determined.
Gifted Programming Identification Procedures: A Hidden Curriculum
Authors: Boley Vicki
Published: July 2021

Monocultural notions of intelligence are crippling the field of gifted
education and often, whether explicitly or implicitly, perpetuate inequity and
disproportionality in both theory and practice, especially regarding how
children are identified as gifted (Cross, 2021; Owens et al., 2018). This
paper briefly examines the history of the conceptualization of giftedness and posits
that gifted programming identification procedures represent a unique and
dangerous hidden curriculum. Drawing from theory on critical hope and positionality,
two tables are presented; one to examine hokey versus critical gifted
programing practices, and one to examine dehumanizing versus humanizing gifted
identification procedures. These tables are intended to generate discussion on what
happens when new ways of conceptualizing giftedness meet old ways of
understanding, informing, and ordering the field of gifted education.

Hysterangiales revisited: expanded phylogeny reveals new genera and two new suborders
Authors: Davoodian N. , Lebel T. , Castellano M.A. , Hosaka K.
Published: July 2021

Hysterangiales (Phallomycetidae, Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota) is a diverse, nearly cosmopolitan order of predominantly hypogeous, sequestrate, ectomycorrhizal fungi. Expanding on previously published phylogenies, we significantly increased sampling of Hysterangiales specimens, emphasizing representatives from Australia. Using protein-coding genes atp6 (adenosine triphosphate synthase subunit 6) and tef1 (translation elongation factor 1-α), we recovered 26 provisional novel genera, and corroborated existing genera and families. Further, two new suborders (Phallogastrineae subord. nov. and Hysterangineae subord. nov.) and a new family (Phallogastraceae fam. nov.) are described, and three new combinations made to Phallogaster. Aspects of classification and biogeography are presented.

The world’s second-largest, recorded landslide event: lessons learnt from the landslides triggered during and after the 2018 Mw 7.5 Papua New Guinea earthquake
Authors: Tanyas Hakan , Hill Kevin , Mahoney Luke , Fadel Islam , Lombardo Luigi
Published: July 2021

Widespread landslide events provide rare but valuable opportunities to investigate the spatial and size distributions of landslides in relation to seismic, climatic, geological and morphological factors. This study presents a unique event inventory for the co-seismic landslides induced by the February 25, 2018 Mw 7.5 Papua New Guinea earthquake as well as its post-seismic counterparts including the landslides triggered by either aftershocks or succeeding rainfall events that occurred between February 26 and March 19. We mapped approximately 11,500 landslides of which more than 10,000 were triggered by the mainshock with a total failed planimetric area of about 145 km2. Such a large area makes this inventory the world’s second-largest recorded landslide event after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. Large landslides are abundant throughout the study area located within the remote Papua New Guinea Highlands. Specifically, more than half of the landslide population is larger than 50,000 m2 and overall, post-seismic landslides are even larger than their co-seismic counterparts. Our analyses indicate that large and widespread landslides were triggered as a result of the compound effects of the strong seismicity, complex geology, steep topography and high rainfall. We statistically show that the 15-day antecedent precipitation, as a predisposing factor, contributes to the spatial distribution of co-seismic landslides. Also, we statistically demonstrate that the cumulative effect of aftershocks is the main factor disturbing steep hillslopes and causing the initiation of very large landslides up to the size of ~5 km2. Taking aside the role of the intense seismic swarm and antecedent precipitation, these inventories also provide evidence for landslide events where the active tectonics contribute to weaken hillslopes and the fatigue damage. Overall, the dataset and the findings provided by this paper is a step forward in seismic landslide hazard assessment of the entire Papua New Guinea mainland.

Welds form due to tectonically-induced thinning and/or dissolution of salt, with their composition and completeness thought to at least partly reflect their structural position within the salt-tectonic system. Despite their importance as seals or migration pathways for accumulations of hydrocarbons and CO2, we have relatively few published examples of drilled subsurface welds; such examples would allow us to improve our understanding of the processes and products of welding, and to test analytical models of the underlying mechanics. In this study we integrate 3D seismic reflection and borehole data from the Green Canyon Area of the northern Gulf of Mexico, USA to characterize the geophysical and geological expression of a tertiary weld, as well as its broader salt-tectonic context. These data show although it appears complete on seismic reflection data, the weld contains 124 ft (c. 38 m) of pure halite. This thickness is consistent with the predictions of analytical models, and with observations from other natural examples of subsurface welds. Our observations also support a model whereby compositional fractionation of salt occurs as the salt-tectonic system evolves; in this model, less mobile and/or denser units, if originally present, are typically stranded within the deeper, autochthonous level, trapped in primary welds, or near the basal root of diapirs, whereas less viscous and/or less dense units form the cores of these diapirs and, potentially, genetically related allochthonous sheets and canopies. We also show that shearing of the weld during downslope translation of the overlying minibasin did not lead to complete welding.

A novel engagement methodology is presented for working with multi-sector stakeholders. The proposed methodology can be used to determine barriers and facilitators to translational research within a country-specific context by working with stakeholders in a responsive and collaborative way. A values-based stakeholder ethos throughout a research project lifecycle. This approach ensures the suitability and sustainability of research programmes being implemented within a complex ecosystem. A theoretical basis, drawn from academic and business innovation sectors, has been consolidated and adapted for practical application to design, direct and inform research in low resource settings; a complete engagement methodology is defined. The benefit of advocating an holistic approach and embedding stakeholder engagement has been applied in the prosthetics and orthotics sector in Cambodia. Considering these issues affects the legacy of any proposed change from a research programme, supporting capacity building, sector influence and ensuring relevance to partners; promoting trust for future collaborations.

Published: July 2021

While equation-based object-oriented modeling language Modelica can evaluate practical energy improvements for district cooling systems, few have adapted Modelica for this type of large-scale thermo-fluid system. Further, to our best knowledge, district cooling modeling studies have yet to include hydraulics in piping network nor waterside economizers. These are critical details to include when looking to make energy and control improvements in many physical system installations. To fi?ll these gaps, this study applies newly developed open-source models from the Modelica Buildings library. For a real-world case study, we modeled and simulated a district cooling system at a college campus in Colorado, United States, with six buildings connected to a central chiller plant featuring a waterside economizer. Several energy saving strategies are pursued based on the validated model, including control setpoint optimization, equipment modification, and pump setpoint adjustments. Results indicate that optimizing the condenser water supply temperature setpoint can save 2.5% to 4.4% energy; the nonintegrated waterside economizer saves 6.4% energy while cutting down the chillers' run times by 201 days/year, reducing maintenance costs, and extending chiller life; and adjusting the condenser water pump flow settings can save 10.2% energy. Through a combinationof the studied measures, the campus can annually save 84.6 MWh of energy, 8.9% of electricity costs, and 58.0 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions. Further, the numerical results of simulating districts from tens to hundreds of buildings are presented.
Applying Hierarchical Bayesian Modeling to Experimental Psychopathology Data: An Introduction and Tutorial

Published: July 2021

Over the past two decades Bayesian methods have been gaining popularity in many scientific disciplines. However, to this date, they are rarely part of formal graduate statistical training in clinical science. Although Bayesian methods can be an attractive alternative to classical methods for answering certain research questions, they involve a heavy “overhead” (e.g., advanced mathematical methods, complex computations), which pose significant barriers to researchers interested in adding Bayesian methods to their statistical toolbox. To increase the accessibility of Bayesian methods for psychopathology researchers, this paper presents a gentle introduction of the Bayesian inference framework and a tutorial on implementation. We first provide a primer on the key concepts of Bayesian inference and major implementation considerations related to Bayesian estimation. We then demonstrate how to apply hierarchical Bayesian modeling (HBM) to experimental psychopathology data. Using a real dataset collected from two clinical groups (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder) and a healthy comparison sample on a psychophysical gaze perception task, we illustrate how to model individual responses and group differences with probability functions respectful of the presumed underlying data-generating process and the hierarchical nature of the data. We provide the code with explanations and the data used to generate and visualize the results to facilitate learning. Finally, we discuss interpretation of the results in terms of posterior probabilities and compare the results with those obtained using a traditional method.
Differential Effects of Mindful Breathing and Loving Kindness Meditations: A Component Analysis Pilot Study
Authors: Bolognino Sarah J. , Renshaw Tyler L , Phan Mary L.
Published: July 2021

Objectives: Mindful breathing meditation (MBM) and loving-kindness meditation (LKM) are common components of effective mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs). This pilot study examined the differential effects of MBM and LKM on purported therapeutic process variables and mental health outcomes via component analysis. Methods: The research design was a randomized controlled trial with four conditions: MBM, LKM, combined (MBM+LKM), and a relaxation control. Participants were college undergraduates. Condition effects were analyzed across seven therapeutic process variables and three mental health outcomes. Treatment integrity and treatment acceptability data were also collected.Results: Findings indicated statistically significant and very large main effects of time, regardless of condition. Statistically significant time by condition interactions were only observed for one process variable and one mental health outcome. Follow-up descriptive evaluation of between-group effect sizes indicated patterns of favorable effects for MBM and LKM over the combined and relaxation control conditions. Treatment integrity and treatment acceptability data indicated very favorable social validity across conditions. Conclusion: We conclude that the findings make a modest yet value-added contribution to the MBI component analysis literature, suggesting differentiated performance among isolated MBM and LKM exercises compared to combined and control conditions. Yet further research is warranted to improve upon the limitations of this study.
Some Revenge Now or More Revenge Later? Applying an Intertemporal Framework to Retaliatory Aggression

Retaliatory aggression is a rewarding behavior. Decisions about rewarding behaviors often involve an intertemporal bias, such that people prefer immediate rewards and discount delayed rewards. We integrated these literatures to test whether the delay discounting framework could be applied to retaliatory aggression. Across six studies (total N = 1,508), participants repeatedly chose between immediate-but-lesser or delayed-but-greater retaliation. As with other rewards (e.g., money), participants preferred immediate-but-lesser retaliation, discounting the value of delayed-but-greater revenge. Rates of aggression discounting were temporally stable andassociated with greater aggressive behavior. Experimentally-induced angry rumination reduced discounting rates, motivating participants to wait longer to inflict greater harm. Participants with greater antagonistic traits (e.g., physical sadism), displayed stronger preferences for delayed-but greater vengeance. These findings suggest that some dispositionally aggressive individuals may delay retaliation in service of greater future revenge. Our results bolster the important role of reward in retaliatory aggression and suggest that an intertemporal framework is likely a fruitfularea of investigation for antisocial behavior. We discuss the implications of our findings in relation to contemporary theories of aggression and broader theories of antisocial behavior.

Published: July 2021

Background: There have been several reports of seasonal variations in the incidence of esophageal variceal bleeding but the data available from this part of the world is scanty.
Aims and Objective: We aimed to study whether monthly and seasonal climatic changes during the year have an influence on the incidence of variceal bleeding in our setting and whether a particular time in the year can be defined as a high-risk period for variceal bleed.
Materials and Methods: Data of all the patients with diagnosis of acute variceal upper gastrointestinal bleed who presented to our endoscopy centre from January 2010 to December 2019 was retrieved and analysed. The demographic data, clinical presentations and seasonal and monthly variation was analysed.
Results: Out of a total of 10200 patients presenting with upper gastrointestinal bleed during the study time period, 530 patients had a diagnosis of variceal bleed after esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). The majority of variceal bleed patients (48.5%) were seen between May to August months of the year.
Conclusions: Contrary to the most of the literature which shows increased frequency of variceal bleed during winters, our patients bleed more during the months of May and August. This could be explained on the basis of unique socio-cultural and demographic pattern of this part of the world.
