Economic and financial aspects of drinking water supply: a project development guideline
Authors: Badasyan Norayr , Bendiek Ansgar , von Lukowicz Joachim
Published: January 2023

Water is one of the most important elements of life, and there is no alternative for human beings. Faced with limited water and financial resources, public policymakers are trying to find new ways of providing society with an appropriate quality of water by attracting private investors. This paper attempts to answer the question of how water sector projects can be developed with private investments to deliver desired economic and social benefits to society. From this perspective, the paper sets the objective of designing a cost–benefit analysis framework that compares the possible deployment models and analyses the optimal solutions that achieve both optimal economic and financial outcomes and can be instrumental in decision making for water sector projects. As a result, the levels of the economic internal rate of return for public decision makers and financial internal rate of return for private investors are examined.

Authors: Pezeshki Hadi , Adeli Hojjat , Pavlou Dimitrios , Siriwardane Sudath C.
Published: January 2023

This paper deals with state of the art in structural health monitoring (SHM) methods in offshore and marine structures. Most SHM methods have been developed for onshore infrastructures. Few studies are available to implement SHM technologies in offshore and marine structures. This paper aims to fill this gap and highlight the challenges in implementing SHM methods in offshore and marine structures. The present work categorises the available techniques for establishing SHM models in oil rigs, offshore wind turbine structures, subsea systems, vessels, pipelines and so on. Additionally, the capabilities of proposed ideas in recent publications are classified into three main categories: model-based methods, vibration-based methods and digital twin methods. Recently developed novel signal processing and machine learning algorithms are reviewed and their abilities are discussed. Developed methods in vision-based and population-based approaches are also presented and discussed. The aim of this paper is to provide guidelines for selecting and establishing SHM in offshore and marine structures.
Using natural head movements to continually calibrate EOG signals
Authors: Nezvadovitz Jason , Rao Hrishikesh
Published: January 2023

Electrooculography (EOG) is the measurement of eye movements using surface electrodes adhered around the eye. EOG systems can be designed to have an unobtrusive form-factor that is ideal for eye tracking in free-living over long durations, but the relationship between voltage and gaze direction requires frequent re-calibration as the skin-electrode impedance and retinal adaptation vary over time. Here we propose a method for automatically calibrating the EOG-gaze relationship by fusing EOG signals with gyroscopic measurements of head movement whenever the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is active. The fusion is executed as recursive inference on a hidden Markov model that accounts for all rotational degrees-of-freedom and uncertainties simultaneously. This enables continual calibration using natural eye and head movements while minimizing the impact of sensor noise. No external devices like monitors or cameras are needed. On average, our method’s gaze estimates deviate by 3.54° from those of an industry-standard desktop video-based eye tracker. Such discrepancy is on par with the latest mobile video eye trackers. Future work is focused on automatically detecting moments of VOR in free-living.
Theme-vowel class indeterminacy and root allomorphy in Slovenian
Authors: Simonović Marko , Mišmaš Petra
Published: January 2023

Slovenian verbs have been analyzed as displaying non-local root allomorphy which gets triggered across the theme vowel (Božič 2016; 2019). We reevaluate the data (using a larger set of verbs) and reconsider the structure of the verb in Slovenian (focusing primarily on the position of the theme vowel). We show that root allomorphy in Slovenian only occurs in a very limited number of theme-vowel classes, making the inventory of theme-vowel classes crucial for the correct analysis of root allomorphy. We further show that an overwhelming majority of verbs with root allomorphy is ambiguous in that these verbs can be analyzed as belonging to different theme-vowel classes. We propose a way of resolving the ambiguity and present an analysis of root allomorphy in terms of phonologically conditioned allomorph selection. In the proposed model, which combines Distributed Morphology and Optimality Theory, a single Vocabulary Item with a complex phonological representation gets inserted and then phonological constraints select the final shape of the exponent (Kager 2008). We show that all root allomorphy is triggered locally and restricted to the phase in which the root gets spelled out.
Who Put the ‘a’ in ‘Thomas a Becket’? The History of a Name from the Angevins to the Victorians
Authors: Jenkins John
Published: January 2023

This article examines the history of Becket’s name from his birth to c. 1800, through detailed corpus analysis, with a particular focus on the varying popularity of the ‘Becket’ and ‘a Becket’ forms from the 16th to 18th centuries. The analysis goes beyond positivist attempts to decide on the ‘correct’ name to look instead at naming conventions in the context of their use. There is some evidence to suggest that, until his ordination at least, Thomas was known by the family surname ‘Beket’ during his lifetime, and this name for him occurs in some medieval chronicle traditions. Yet for the most part he was ‘St Thomas of Canterbury’, and the ‘Becket’ surname was revived by Protestants at the Reformation as a slur to emphasise his unworthiness. The form ‘a Becket’ was invented by the satirist Thomas Nashe in the 1590s to turn the archbishop into a figure of fun, and by the 1700s may have been the predominant form in popular, verbal, use, largely thanks to its more appealing rhythmic form. By the 1760s the ‘a Becket’ form had also become the academically accepted ‘correct’ form. This in turn gave rise to debate, continuing to this day, about the correct nomenclature and to a host of theories about the etymology of both ‘types’.Banner image: The earliest known portrayal of Thomas Becket's murder in Canterbury Cathedral, unknown author, c.1200. Original in the British Library: Harley MS 5102, f. 32; image from Wikimedia Commons.
Analysis of Maximum-Rainfall-Infiltration-Induced Slope Stability Using the Transient Rainfall Infiltration and Grid-based Regional Slope-stability Model in Cililin, West Java, Indonesia
Authors: Sugianti Khori , Yunarto Yunarto , Sadisun Imam , Kartiko Rendy
Published: January 2023

DOI:10.17014/ijog.9.2.263-278Landslide is one type of geological disasters that frequently occurs during the rainy season. Rainfall infiltration can cause soil saturation that increases the positive pore water pressure, disturbing the slope stability. Therefore, knowledge of future landslide-triggering rainfall is required for mitigation efforts and reducing the risk of landslide hazards. This paper presents slope-stability modeling in the Cililin area using the well-established infinite slope model called the transient rainfall infiltration and grid-based regional slope-stability (TRIGRS). The modeling used the rainfall data obtained from the statistical analysis of the maximum daily rainfall by using the Gumbel distribution. The present study applied six scenarios in the modeling. Scenario I is the initial condition without rainfall, showing the slope stability influenced by topography, slope, and soil characteristics. TRIGRS modeling involves rainfall infiltration in scenarios II, III, IV, V, and VI. The maximum rainfalls used in the modeling are 66, 76, 101, 120, and 132 mm/d, showing that rainfall infiltration affected the slope stability. The result indicates that rainfall triggered an increase and expansion of the area distributions critical to the slope stability.

Published: January 2023

Structural stability of the docked complexes was monitored using MD simulation with Gromacs 2020.5 (RRID:SCR_014565). The protein topology was created using Gromos96 force field and the PRODRG server was utilized to create the topology of the ligand. The docked complexes were solvated using ‘Simple Point Charge’ (SPC) water model in a cuboidal box with adequate size to accommodate the complete complex at the center.The modeled systems were neutralized using required number of counter ions (Na+ / Cl-). The undesirable contacts and steric conflicts were then removed from the neutralized systems using steepest descent followed by conjugate gradient methods for 50,000 steps each. The NVT ensemble used to maintain constant number of atoms, volume, and temperature, further NPT ensemble was used to maintain constant pressure. NVT and NPTensembles were used to maintain temperature. The temperature and pressure were set constant at 300K and 1 bar respectively, during the equilibration of 1ns. Further, followed by 1ns of equilibration, unrestrained MD simulation was performed for a period of 100ns in solvent. The Particle Mesh Ewald (PME) method was used to handle coulomb electrostatic interactions, while the LINear Constraint Solver (LINCS)s algorithmwas used to limit H-bonds. Using a cut-off value of 14 Å, the non-bonded contacts were trimmed. The trajectories generated were analyzed using some of the inbuild gromacs tools like ‘gmx rms,’ ‘gmx rmsf,’ ‘gmx hbond,’ ‘gmx gyrate,’ ‘gmx sasa,’ etc. and other additional packages for specific analysis wherever required. Conformational changes at the secondary structural level were monitored by using Dictionary of Protein Secondary Structure (DSSP) software (RRID:SCR_002725).

Autodock Vina version 1.1.2 (RRID:SCR_011958) for docking. The grid box's dimensions were fixed at XYZ=30Å × 30Å × 30Å which was found to be the best size for the default exhaustiveness (=8), and the ligand binding site was positioned in the middle of the grid box. The details of spatial dimensions (along XYZ axis) and the grid box’s size which were specified in a configuration file. Using AutoDock vina version 1.1.2's (RRID:SCR_011958) command line interface, docking was accomplished. The log file created listed the binding modes along with their corresponding binding energies. With the help of BIOVIA Discovery studio visualizer 2021, the binding modes were created as a single file in ‘pdbqt’ format, and all non-bonded interactions were recorded.
Meat speciation NGS protocol using DNeasy mericon food kit, Ion AmpliSeq Library Kit Plus, Ion Chef, andIon GeneStudio S5 System v1
Authors: P Wilkes Rebecca
Published: January 2023

The purpose of this protocol is to provide the standard operating procedures for determining meat species in a food sample. This is a targeted next generation sequencing (tNGS) panel that uses manual extraction and library prep and the Ion Chef and the Ion GeneStudio S5 for sequecing. The targeting is done through PCR using primer sets in two separate pools that target multiple mitochondrial genes of various animal species, which can be purchased from ThermoFisher Scientific. This panel is useful for speciating meat in composite samples that likely contain more than one meat species. The reference and bed files needed for sequence evaluation are provided. There is some cross-detection with this panel, so evaluation of the sequencing reads obtained using BLAST analysis is recommended to confirm the results.
Fathering in the Chilean context: Wellbeing and father involvement pre and post the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Aldoney Daniela , García María Ignacia , Panesso Carolina
Published: January 2023

We examined father involvement in two groups of two-parent Chilean families with children aged from 2 to 7 years, one prior to the pandemic (N = 115) and the second during the pandemic (N = 103). We first presented a description of fathering in the Chilean context and then examined potential predictors of fathers’ cognitive and affective involvement. Data showed that during the pandemic fathers reported significantly higher levels of depressive symptoms compared to before the pandemic. However, levels of cognitive and affective involvement did not vary across studies. Parental stress predicted cognitive and affective involvement in pre-pandemic fathers. Number of children and educational level were related only to cognitive involvement. The implications of these findings for intervention and future research are discussed.

Authors: Valencia Carlo Yarmila Elena , Natera Rey Guillermina , Jiménez Genchi Alejandro
Published: January 2023

Introduction. Increased rumination is associated with longer night-time sleep onset latency and poorer sleep quality and efficiency in people with insomnia symptoms. Objective. To validate the Diurnal Insomnia Symptoms Response Scale (DISRS) in a general population sample. Method. 102 participants (women = 67 and men = 35) comprising patients and relatives who attended an outpatient consultation at a health center in Mexico City were evaluated. The English-Spanish-English translation system was used by two Spanish-speaking experts on the subject, an independent bilingual expert translated the new version of the scale into English, which was then compared with the original. The following self-administered questionnaires were used to evaluate the convergent, discriminant validity of this tool: the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS), the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), and Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ). Results. The internal consistency of the scale items was α = .93. Principal components factor analysis yielded three factors with an eigenvalue of greater than one, which together explain 59.5% of the variance. Correlations between the total DISRS score and the cognitive-motivational dimensions (r = .938, p () .01), negative state (r = .898, p () .01) and tiredness (r = .853, p () .01) were statistically significant. Insomnia symptoms (SCC = .89) outweighed worries (SCC = .33) and ruminant responses (SCC = .33) when discriminating between cases with low and high levels of rumination associated with insomnia symptoms. Discussion and conclusion. Our results suggest that the DISRS scale has adequate psychometric properties that make it valid and reliable for use with the Mexican population.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): A literature review
Authors: Cáceres Videla Carolina Eugenia , Cáceres Melillo Rocío Carlota
Published: January 2023

Background. Previous reviews have concluded that whilst mindfulness-based interventions reduce PTSD symptoms through fear extinction and cognitive restructuring, further research is needed. Objective. The aim of this report is to systematically review existing literature about the association between standardized mindfulness-based interventions and PTSD with the aim of identifying implications for practice and recommendations for future research. Method. The CINAHL Complete, PsycINFO, Medline, and PsycArticles databases were searched, looking for full-text articles from 2018 up to march 2022. Results. There was a significant improvement in PTSD symptoms in MBCT participants, even if some experienced a high increase at baseline. MBSR participants with moderate to severe trauma symptoms showed a greater reduction in symptoms whereas mild trauma symptoms at baseline showed slightly higher symptomatology at the end of treatment. Discussion and conclusion. From the results, MBCT, MBSR, and their variations seem to tackle different domains of the diagnosis. Whilst MBSR is associated with improvements in terms of attentional difficulties, MBCT facilitates the connection between dysfunctional cognitive concepts and avoidant behaviours that maintain the symptomatology. Nevertheless, the active components of MBCT or MBSR that have an impact on symptom reduction are undetermined. Future studies will be enhanced by monitoring the change in underlying mechanisms attached to the practice of mindfulness through outcome measurements, among other considerations.

Noise Exposure and Hearing Health in the Workplace
Authors: Merijanti Lie Tanu
Published: January 2023

Noise exposure is a potential occupational hazard found in almost every industrial sector.In Indonesia  from research conducted on workers in workshops, wood industries and ferries, it was found that the noise intensity was between 85 – 103 dB and the prevalence of noise-induced hearing loss was between 21.7% - 34.5%.  Besides being able to cause hearing loss, high-intensity noise also causes physical and psychological stress, interferes with communication and concentration, reduces work productivity, and even triggers work accidents. However, noise is often accepted as an unavoidable part of industrial processes causing workers to seem accustomed to noise and do not realize that it will gradually interfere with hearing and if left unchecked it can cause permanent / irreversible sensorineural hearing loss, so preventive measures are the best option to avoid hearing damage.

Published: January 2023

‘Sickle hepatopathy’ is a condition which is seen in only 10% cases of sickle cell disease (SCD). Sickle hepatopathy could be due to acute sickle crisis, sequestration, cholangiopathy, severe intrahepatic cholestasis or as a result of chronic blood transfusion related infection and hemosiderosis. Differentiating the cause for hepatopathy in SCD is challenging. Hepatopathy manifestation can range from mild liver function test abnormality to life threatening fulminant hepatic failure. Hence, demanding prompt recognition and management. Here we reported a one such case of 13 year old male with progressing jaundice and bony pain with swelling of lower limbs was diagnosed as SCD with right proximal tibia sickle osteomyelitis and left knee septic arthritis with hepatopathy who was managed with supportive care and surgical intervention.

Certain aspects of the legal regulation of remote work
Authors: Osipova S. V.
Published: January 2023

The article deals with topical problems of legal regulation of remote work, the regulation of which has undergone significant changes in recent years. Attention is drawn to the fact that one of the signs of remote work is the performance of a labor function by an employee outside the territory or facility of the employer, and to the debatability of the issue of determining the workplace of a remote worker. It is noted that despite the application of general rules, changing the employment contract with a remote worker has its own characteristics. First of all, this is the possibility of concluding an appropriate additional agreement by exchanging electronic documents. Various options for such changes are being explored: the transfer of an existing employee to a remote form of employment, the abolition of remote work and return to the office, the establishment of hybrid employment, etc. It is proposed to establish in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation a list of grounds, in the presence of which the employer, at the request of the employee, is obliged to transfer the employee to a remote work format, or an indication of the list of categories of employees. The problems of the mode and accounting of the working time of remote workers are considered. The conclusion is made about the prospects of remote work for professions, areas of activity that have the ability to work remotely.

In this volume are included two flattering reviews, first of Eleanor Dickey, Ancient Greek scholarship: a guide to finding, reading and understanding scholia, commentaries, lexica and grammatical treatises, from their beginnings to the Byzantine period (New York 2007) and the second of René Nünlist, The ancient critic at work. Terms and concepts of literary criticism in Greek scholia (New York 2009). Both reviewed works focuses on Greek scholarship and are very helpful for modern scholars with understanding ancient literary criticism and reading scholia. Scientists rarely use Greek commentaries, because of their technical and philological difficulties, especially because of particular writing and vocabulary, used by scholiasts. There are very few works concerning this theme, so any new published results of researches this kind is priceless. Moreover both reviewed works are of highest scientific level.

Analisar o contexto educacional, na perspectiva inclusiva, requer uma reflexão acerca das tecnologias digitais como potencializadoras da aprendizagem e da inclusão social, digital e educacional. Esta pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, é um estudo de caso (Yin, 2001) que traz um recorte de três experiências educacionais com o uso da ferramenta Nuvem de Palavras, em três escolas situadas em duas cidades maranhenses, Timon e a capital São Luís, com estudantes surdos e ouvintes, matriculados no ensino médio, visando compreender as contribuições deste recurso para a aprendizagem e inclusão educacional. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a análise bibliográfica e as entrevistas com os colaboradores. A partir das análises do material empírico, ancorada nos autores que referenciam o estudo, depreende-se que a apropriação de tecnologias e o desenvolvimento de competências digitais ainda é um processo lento nas instituições públicas de ensino, porém observa-se, também, que a dedicação docente minimiza a lacuna deixada pela ausência de recursos materiais. Como resultados, observa-se que a infraestrutura tecnológica, a formação continuada de professores e as condições socioeconômicas da comunidade escolar interferem no desempenho estudantil, face às possibilidades de diálogos e aprendizagens com as tecnologias digitais.

Authors: Logsdon Elizabeth , Cornelius-White Jeffrey H. D. , Kanamori Yasuko
Published: January 2023

The current meta-analysis aims to synthesize existing studies on the effectiveness of both trauma-focused and addiction-focused eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) for people with substance use disorder (SUD). Search and selection procedures involved screening 1,733 references, yielding 10 studies published between 2008 and 2021 from 8 countries with 561 participants. After the removal of one outlier study, the results showed EMDR to be effective on a variety of outcomes for people with SUD (n= 9,d= .654, 95% CI [.332, .985],p< .001). Regarding the effects on SUD outcomes, meta-analysis also showed EMDR to be effective (n= 7,d= .580, 95% CI [.209, .951],p= .002). Specifically, EMDR was effective with SUD treatment engagement and severity, but not necessarily the reduction of cravings, and also effective for reducing comorbid posttraumatic and depressive symptoms. This meta-analysis is limited by the number of studies and participants, heterogeneity in methods of included studies, the quality of studies, and other factors.

Authors: Tcheshmedjiev Ingrid , Farrell Derek
Published: January 2023

This narrative scoping literature review explores a significant clinical population, pregnant women with co-occurring substance misuse, through the lens of adaptive information processing and the potential for eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy intervention. A data search was performed in PubMed, PsychINFO, Web of Science, Science Direct, Cochran, and Scopus databases focusing on literature published within the last 10 years. Due to the distinctiveness of the issue, 10 research articles met the required inclusion criteria. The results confirm that EMDR can deliver effective outcomes for women with co-occurring substance use disorder during pregnancy. However, the rationale for using EMDR as a “sole-treatment” intervention appears insufficient. Instead, there is an argument supporting the utilization of integrative approaches. This review highlights the limited research available for this essential population and discusses the need for further study and investigation.
