The Temporality of Maximal Grip: On Pragmatists’ Readings of Merleau-Ponty
Authors: Koloskov Daniil
Published: June 2021

In this article, I will pursue three aims. First, I would like to demonstrate the non-transcendental character of Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology, namely, his claim that a strict division between a priori and a posteriori is an abstraction that derives from a more primordial unity that is given in our lived experience. I will criticize authors such as H. Dreyfus and T. Carman who treat the body and bodily character of our existence as a classical Kantian a priori that functions as a condition of experience without itself being a part of the experience. The claim I would like to defend in this regard is that reflections on the conditions of our experience must themselves be a part of our experience. The second task is to show how Merleau-Ponty’s analysis of temporality helps him to avoid this strict division between a priori and a posteriori. Based on this, I will elucidate some of the most obscure passages of Phenomenology of Perception. Finally, I will claim that the notion of optimal grip can neither be explained by the reference to our body, as Carman claims, or to brains, organisms and their copings with the environment, as Dreyfus argues. Instead, I will claim that the maximal grip is rather a consolidation or intensification of the temporal ecstasy.
Synthesis of a Biomimetic Tetracyclic Precursor of Aspochalasins Allowing a Formal Synthesis of Trichoderone A
Authors: Gayraud Oscar , Laroche Benjamin , Casaretto Nicolas , Nay Bastien
Published: June 2021

Aspochalasins are leucine-derived cytochalasins. Their complexity is often associated to a high degree of biosynthetic oxidative transformations that could inspire a two-phase strategy in total synthesis. In that context, we describe the synthesis of a putative biomimetic tetracyclic intermediate. The key constructive steps are an intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction to install the characteristic isoindolone core of cytochalasins, whose branched precursor was obtained from a stereoselective Ireland-Claisen rearrangement made on a highly unsaturated substrate. This work also constitutes a formal synthesis of trichoderone A.
Molecular Environment Specific Atomic Charges Improve Binding Affinity Predictions of SAMPL5 Host-Guest Systems
Authors: Gonzalez Duvan , Macaya Luis , Vöhringer-Martinez Esteban
Published: June 2021

Host-guest systems are widely used in benchmarks as model systems to improve computational methods for absolute binding free energy predictions. Recent advances in sampling algorithms for alchemical free energy calculations and the increase in computational power have made their binding affinity prediction primarily dependent on the quality of the force field. Here, we propose a new methodology to derive the atomic charges of host-guest systems based on QM/MM calculations and the MBIS partitioning of the polarized electron density. A newly developed interface between the OpenMM and ORCA software package provides D-MBIS charges that best represent the guest’s average electrostatic interactions in the hosts or the solvent. The simulation workflow also calculates the average energy required to polarize the guest in the bound and unbound state. Alchemical free energy calculations using the GAFF force field parameters with D-MBIS charges improve the binding affinity prediction of six guests bound to two octa-acid hosts compared to the AM1-BCC charge set after correction with the average energetic polarization cost. This correction results from the difference in the energetic polarization cost between the bound and unbound state and contributes significantly to the binding affinity of anionic guests.

Diabetes mellitus is a fast-growing pandemic. In India, the urban population is more prone to disease rather than the rural Indian population. Dietary habits, faulty lifestyle, and urbanization leading to reduced physical exercise may be responsible to a large extent. Indian system of medicine, namely Ayurveda cited a disease entity named Prameha. It is a clinical syndrome that includes various clinical conditions like, obesity, pre-diabetes, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. The symptomatology, types, and sub-types mentioned in the context shows relevance with modern times rationale of free fatty acid and its role in peripheral insulin resistance. The article put an emphasis on those cases of chronic diabetes (DM type 2) which becomes insulin dependent in later phase of life and its coherence with Vatolwana prameha of kaphaja and pittaja variety(Kaphaja and Pittajaprameha with predominant Vata). This review article focuses on the Ayurvedic management of chronic insulin dependent type 2 diabetics. Various research papers indexed in Pubmed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science was deeply studied and cited appropriately in the article. The closest possible correlation of modern and Ayurveda principles and their relevance in the present time is tried to be drawn. The treatment protocol given in Ayurveda texts is scientific enough to be taken into consideration for making it as the first-line treatment of not only diabetes mellitus but also in the cases of obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and one of the leading causes of death. The Aim and objective of the present study is to perform in-silico docking analysis of the major active constituents identified in three Indian medicinal plants namely Convolvulus pluricaulis, Coriandrum sativum and Panax ginseng for its effectiveness against the targets of Alzheimer Disease. In-silico docking analysis was performed by Molegro Virtual Docker (MVD-2010, 4.2.0) and Schrodinger Mestro (V 11.8). In addition, Drug likeness property, pharmacokinetics (ADME) and safety profile prediction studies were performed to identify the best drug candidates using Qikpro and Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T). The target for Alzheimer Disease is Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase. The X-ray crystal co-ordinates of AChE (PDB ID: 4bdt) and BChE (PDB ID: 6eqq) obtained from the Protein Data Bank. The phytoconstituents of three medicinal plants were retrieved from PubChem compound database in mol format. The standard drugs Donepezil, Rivastigmine, Galantamine, Memantine was obtained from the drug bank in .mol format for comparison. It was analysed from the parameters of docking that the phytoconstituents from Panax ginseng showed better anti-Alzheimer activity compared to that of the standard drugs. Based on the research findings, further studies can be performed in in-vitro & in-vivo animal models of Alzheimer’s disease to establish the efficacy of promising phytoconstituents.
Socjologiczna teoria inteligencji Józefa Chałasińskiego
Authors: Kulas Piotr
Published: June 2021

Celem tego artykułu jest omówienie stanowiska Józefa Chałasińskiego na temat polskiej inteligencji. Autor artykułu argumentuje, że było ono konsekwencją jego poglądów na pokrewne tematy, jakimi się zajmował: demokratyzację kultury, awans społeczny, napięcia między kulturą szlachecką a (wypartą z polskiego imaginarium) kulturą chłopską, problematykę narodu. W pierwszej części tekstu autor śledzi najważniejsze i obecne w dziele socjologa inspiracje, które ukształtowały jego przekonania. W drugiej części podkreśla, że chociaż Józef Chałasiński nie zostawił na temat inteligencji jednorodnego dzieła, to z rozproszonych pism można wydobyć stosunkowo spójne oraz formowane przez lata stanowisko teoretyczne. Autor artykułu stawia ponadto tezę, że w ujęciu inteligencji przez Chałasińskiego najważniejszą rolę pełniła kultura, zaś krytyka inteligencji miała na celu walkę o demokratyzację kultury. W podsumowującej części tekstu autor podkreśla trwałość podstawowych wątków dotyczących inteligencji u Chałasińskiego oraz towarzyszącą mu przez całą intelektualną biografię nadzieję na zmianę wzoru osobowego reprezentowanego przez inteligencję i zastąpienie go demokratycznym wzorem człowieka kulturalnego, który niezależnie od zawodu czy wykształcenia czynnie uczestniczy w życiu kulturalnym własnego narodu.

Sesli betimlemede görsel efektler: SüngerBob Kare Pantolon Suyun Dışında
Authors: ŞULHA Pelin
Published: June 2021

Ülkemizde son yıllarda erişilebilirliğe verilen değerin artmasıyla giderek daha görünür bir çalışma alanına dönüşen sesli betimleme, görme engelli bireylerin görsel-işitsel ürünlere erişebilmeleri için yapılan uygulamaları içeren bir çeviri türüdür. Her yaştan izleyiciye hitap eden animasyonlar bu uygulamaların sıklıkla yapıldığı ortamlardan biridir. Animasyonlarda yer alan görsel efektler en az anlatısal öğeler kadar önem taşır. Bu yüzden görme engellilerin animasyonu takip edebilmeleri ve keyifli bir seyretme deneyimi yaşayabilmeleri için, esere özgünlük kazandıran bu efektleri gören seyircilere yakın düzeyde bilmeleri gereklidir. Metin yazarı olarak çevirmen, betimleme metni/senaryoyu oluştururken diyaloglar arasındaki boşluklara yer ve zaman kısıtlamaları elverdiğince filmde yer alan görsel efektlerin etkisini aktarmaya yönelik eklemeler yapmalıdır. Bu makalede SüngerBob Kare Pantolon Suyun Dışında (2015) adlı animasyonda anlatıyı sanatsal, işlevsel ve üretkenlik yönüyle destekleyen görsel efektlerin sesli betimleme süreci ele alınacaktır. İncelenecek kesitler seçilirken temel alınan kıstaslar, çizgiyle veya insanların dünyası ile animasyonu birleştiren ve seyircinin zihninde canlandıramayacağı nitelikte gerçeküstü görsellik içeren sahneler olmasıdır. Bu sahne çözümlemeleri ışığında, sesli betimleme tekniğinin animasyon hikâyesiyle efektleri ilişkilendirirse, yani karakterler, mekân ve zaman öğeleriyle olaylar ve eylemlerin gerçekleşme şekillerini odağa alarak filmi betimlerse, görme engelli seyircinin görsel efekt uygulamalarıyla oluşturulan elastik gerçeklikten kurguya dayalı algısal gerçekliğini üretebilmesini sağlayacağı ortaya çıkmıştır.
Çeviri göstergebilimi bağlamında bir özde çeviri örneği: The Clown and His Daughter
Authors: ÖZTÜRK KASAR Sündüz , GÜLMÜŞ SIRKINTI Halise
Published: June 2021

Türk edebiyatının önde gelen isimlerinden Halide Edib Adıvar, 1935 yılında İngiltere’de gönüllü sürgünde olduğu yıllarda The Clown and His Daughter başlıklı eserini İngilizce olarak kaleme alır. Söz konusu eser, Osmanlı Devleti’nin çöküş yıllarını hafız bir kızın başından geçen olaylar üzerinden anlatmakta; dolayısıyla dönemin yaşantısına, toplumsal yapısına, gelenek ve göreneklerine, kısacası Osmanlı ve Türk kültürüne yönelik göstergelerden oluşmaktadır. Oluşturulduğu dil bağlamı yani İngiliz dili, yansıttığı dil ve kültür bağlamından, Türk dili ve kültüründen farklı olan The Clown and His Daughter, İngiliz yazın dizgesinde her ne kadar özgün eser olarak yayımlanmış olsa da Osmanlı ve Türk kültürüne ait, İngilizlere uzak olan göstergeler İngilizceye aktarılırken zihinsel bir çeviri sürecinden geçirildikleri varsayılmaktadır. Bu yaklaşımla, bu çalışmada The Clown and His Daughter bir çeviri ürün olarak ele alınmakta ve Sündüz Öztürk Kasar'ın ortaya koyduğu “özde çeviri” kavramı odağında incelenmektedir. Bir özde çevirmen olarak Adıvar'ın zihinsel çeviri izleri, betimleyici bir yaklaşımla çeviri ürün üzerinde aranmaktadır. Eserin Türkçe çevirisi de aynı yıl Adıvar'ın kaleminden çıkmış ve Sinekli Bakkal başlığı ile önce tefrika, daha sonra kitap olarak yayımlanmıştır. Çalışmamızda, “özde çeviri” olarak ele alınan The Clown and His Daughter, “öz çeviri” ve Öztürk Kasar’ın önerdiği “aslına çeviri” kavramları doğrultusunda ele alınan Sinekli Bakkal ile karşılaştırmalı olarak okunarak Adıvar'ın kendi kültürüne dair göstergeleri öteki konumundaki İngiliz okura nasıl aktardığı, bu göstergeleri metin aslına dönerken nasıl şekillendirdiği ve farklı çeviri türlerinin ve farklı okur kitlelerinin Adıvar'ı nasıl yönlendirdiği betimleyici bir yaklaşımla irdelenmektedir.
Yerelleştirme ve disiplinlerarasılık
Authors: CANIM ALKAN Sinem
Published: June 2021

Yerelleştirme web sitelerinin ve yazılımların hedef kitlenin kullanımına hazır hale getirilmesi olarak tanımlanabilir. 1980lerde ürünlerini ulusal pazarların dışında da satmak isteyen yazılım üreticilerin bir girişimi olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. 1990larda yerelleştirme işini kendileri yapmak istemeyen işletmelerin dil hizmeti sağlayıcılardan yerelleştirme hizmeti satın almaya başlamasıyla çeviri sektörü yerelleştirme dünyasına katılmıştır. Çeviribilimin yerelleştirmeyle tanışması ise 1990larda çeviri eğitimi kurumlarının yerelleştirme dünyasına iş gücü yetiştirme çabasının bir sonucu olarak gerçekleşmiş ve yerelleştirme konulu çeviribilim çalışmalarına 2000lerde başlanmıştır. Yerelleştirmenin tarihsel gelişimi dikkate alındığında hem uygulamanın hem de söylemin farklı disiplinlerin bakış açısının etkisi altında kaldığı düşünülebilir. O halde şu soruyu sormak yerindedir: “Yerelleştirme uygulaması ve söylemi disiplinlerarasılık üzerinden açıklanırsa neyle karşılaşılır?” Çalışmanın cevap aradığı araştırma sorusu budur ve amacı yerelleştirmenin disiplinlerarasılığını incelemektir. Çalışmada literatür taramasından elde edilen veriler ile araştırmacının kendinin yerelleştirme projelerinde çalışarak edindiği deneyim verileri üç kategoride incelenmiştir: yerelleştirme söylemi, yerelleştirme süreci ve yerelleştirme çevirmeni. İncelemeden şu bulgular elde edilmiştir: 1. Yerelleştirme söylemi pek çok disiplinin bilgisinden beslenmiştir. 2. Yerelleştirme süreci farklı disiplinlerin bilgi ve becerilerine sahip uzmanlardan oluşan ekiplerin iş birliğiyle yürütülür. 3. Yerelleştirme çevirmeni bu ekiplerde çok çeşitli disiplinlerin bilgisinden beslenerek farklı rollerde görev alabilir ve farklı özel alanlarda çeviri yapabilir. Bu bulgulardan yola çıkarak şu sonuca varılmıştır: Yerelleştirme; söylemi, süreci ve çevirmeni açısından disiplinlerarası bir niteliktedir. Yerelleştirme projelerinde görev almak isteyen eyleyenlere ve yerelleştirmeyi anlamak ve açıklamak isteyen araştırmacılara yerelleştirme olgusuna disiplinlerarası bir perspektifle yaklaşmaları önerilir.
A Spectrum of Employee Reactions to the Adoption of Organizational Changes in the AEC Industry
Authors: Maali Omar , Shalwani Amirali , Lines Brian , Sullivan Kenneth , Perrenoud Anthony
Published: June 2021

The architecture, engineering, and construction industry is introduced to a lot of innovations in various areas such as technology, management process, and business structure. The industry is rapidly adopting changes to cope with the current market. Many change initiatives fail to achieve their intended outcomes due to multiple barriers such as employee resistance to change. The objective of the study was to investigate the relationship between various employee reactions to change initiative and successful adoption of that change, using a continuum of eight observable employee reactions. The study collected a data set of 447 cases of organization-wide changes from AEC firms across North America. The results showed that a more favorable employee reaction to change is positively correlated with successful adoption of change. Further analysis considered each reaction separately to find which behavioral responses are most associated with successful change adoption. A key finding was that reactions of reluctant compliance, passive avoidance, and lack of participation were most strongly associated with negative change adoption. This leads to an interesting contribution for practitioners, because this finding suggests that organizations may need to be wary of these more subtle behavioral reactions than more overt opposition, argumentation, obstruction, and undermining actions.
Improving Student Learning in an Entry Level Construction Management Course Through the Application of a Social Constructivist Approach to Teaching
Authors: Brittle Patrick
Published: June 2021

When students initially begin their pursuit of a degree in Construction Management (CMGT), the first CMGT courses they take address a wide breadth of foundational concepts. At the time of taking these entry level courses, most of these new CMGT students have little to no experience in the construction industry. This lack of experience presents a significant challenge for these students to understand the relevancy and real-world application of the concepts they are being taught. Often times these entry level courses utilize a traditional teaching method, where the instructor delivers the concepts to students via lectures. In turn, students focus on memorizing the delivered information, with little understanding of how the information they are taught is used in the construction industry. In this paper the author will demonstrate how a social constructivist approach was used in an entry level CMGT course to design a group project. This group project required students to relate the concepts taught in class to an actual construction project, resulting in improved student understanding of the concepts taught. This study is significant in that similar social constructivist approaches can be used in other entry level CMGT courses to greatly improve the quality of student learning.
COVID-19 Impact to Construction Activity Durations on Department of Defense (DoD) Projects
Authors: Manning Jason , Sattineni Anoop , Simons April
Published: June 2021

The COVID-19 virus ravaged the United States population and economy. In March 2020 almost every state went into a self-mandated lockdown. States began reopening in May and June of 2020 with different safety protocols and restrictions in place. Most Department of Defense (DoD) construction sites were considered essential, therefore did not have to shut down. To keep their personnel safe, contractors quickly began adopting additional safety measures as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). One of the most widely used safety measures was social distancing or staying 6 ft away from other individuals. This paper summarizes the impacts of COVID related delays on construction activities based on survey data. Results indicate that several issues caused construction delays including labor shortage, social distancing, COVID-19 protocols and material supply delays. The data also showed that delays were noticed in all aspects of construction including concrete, MEP, masonry and finishes.
Identifying and Categorizing Industry Recruitment Display Materials at a 4-year Construction Management Degree Program’s Career Fair Events
Authors: Redden Lauren , Green C. Michael , Burt Richard
Published: June 2021

As the construction industry continues to grow, there is an increased demand for recruiting students from construction management programs. Many companies implement effective recruiting strategies and company branding at career fair events. However, there is no definitive research that objectively identifies the characteristics a company portrays at career fair events for construction management programs. This research identifies how companies define their character by: (1) the visual materials they select to display and (2) the use of space and surfaces they have available at a construction career fair. In order to accurately identify these characteristics, photographs were taken during two career fair events of each company participant’s booth space. In the Spring 2019 and 2020 career fair events, 107 total photos of 80 companies and 159 photos of 97 companies were analyzed respectively. The analysis identified six categories of display materials with examples in each category. The six categories include: vertical surfaces, horizontal surfaces, industry related props, technology related props, information handouts, and giveways. The analysis also identified how companies differentiate themselves by the written content and images they choose to display on the vertical surfaces and the use they make of horizontal surfaces.

Authors: Ogunseiju Omobolanle , Akanmu Abiola , Bairaktarova Diana
Published: June 2021

The fast-growing adoption of sensing technologies in the construction industry has necessitated a demand for workforce with technical skills. This study explores the current state of sensing technologies in the industry and sensing technology education in construction engineering and management programs. The study investigates the agreeability of industry and academia’s perceptions of the integration of sensing technologies in construction engineering and management curricula. The study employs online surveys to capture industry and instructor perceptions of the skills required of graduating construction engineering and management students and the extent of sensing technology education respectively. Comparison of the survey responses reveals differences between sensing technologies and applications deployed in the industry and those taught in construction engineering and management programs. While reinforcing the need for technical skills in the industry, results provide highlights to well-structured sensing technology courses based on required competencies to prepare students for a relevant and successful career in the industry.
Evidences of Opportunity Gaps in Construction Management Education
Authors: Burgoon Jared , Elliott Jonathan
Published: June 2021

Disparities in bachelor’s degree obtainment and academic success as evidence of “opportunity gaps” between underserved racial-ethnic minority, low-income, and first-generation students and their peers is well documented in the United States higher education system. However, academic literature addressing the opportunity gap in construction management education is limited. This study investigated the academic success of Latinx, Pell Grant eligible, and first-generation students as compared to White (non-Latinx), non-Pell Grant eligible, and continuing-generation students at a large U.S. based construction management program for the years 2008 to 2017. Findings indicate that statistically significant differences in grade point average and construction management program eligibility exist between White (non-Latinx) and Latinx students at the construction management program of interest for this study.
Analysis of Construction Study Abroad Programs Viewed from a Global Perspective
Authors: Jacobs Francois , Lu Renxiang , Adhikari Sanjeev
Published: June 2021

The objective of this paper is to evaluate differences and similarities of construction programs across various countries in order to encourage international cooperation of construction training and study abroad programs. The information illustrated in this paper was collected through a survey that was administered to construction programs from 11 different countries. The survey was divided into the following four categories: Program Structure, Curriculum, Industry Involvement and General Program. The study identified challenges and opportunities for students in construction programs to study abroad, with specific reference to financial funding at institutions, funding support from industry, lack of understanding around international articulation platforms, wide variation across internship requirements, and the importance of industry recognized certifications. The study demonstrated that 64% of the surveyed programs receive industry support and that all the surveyed programs are engaged and familiar with articulation agreements. In addition, besides programs in Australia and Portugal, internships are a requirement in all other countries surveyed. Also, among all surveyed countries, only Malaysia and South Africa require students to obtain industry certificates during the course of the program.

Kaderin bir araya getirdiği, birbirinden farklı askerler ormanın derinliklerinde yollarını bulmaya çalışırlar. Açlığa ve nereden geldiğini bilmedikleri kurşunlara rağmen hayatta kalma mücadelesi verirler. Başkalarının savaşında kendilerine verilen vazifeyi ifa ettiklerini ve bu nedenle öldürdüklerini kendilerine telkin etseler de bedensel ve ruhsal olarak tükenmiş bu askerler geçmişe dönük vicdani sorgulamalardan kaçamazlar. Terk edilmiş ve harap olmuş bir köyde karşılaştıkları beyaz elbiseli bir kadın onları umutlandırır ancak kadın savaşın kazanan tarafına ait görünse de çok şey kaybetmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, resmiyette biten bir savaşın askerler için devam ettiğini, metnin varoluşçu filozof Jean-Paul Sartre’ın savaşı temel alan tiyatro metinlerindeki benzerliklerini, profesyonel askerlerin eve döndüklerinde onları bekleyen gerilimleri, vicdani çatışmaları, suçluluk duygusunu ve anlam kaybını tarihî ve politik referanslarla yorumlamaktır.

Building collapse that occurred mostly caused by structure failure in containment earthquake load. Factors that lead to the failure of the beam, among others is beam planning that does not calculate ductility or restraint, resulting decline of beams performance. One way to improve beam strength and ductility are to retrofit the beam by wrapping beams using fiberglass. Research aims to discover the increase amount of bending load capacity from concrete beam that has been retrofitted using jacketing fiberglass. Experimental testing was carried out on beam specimens with a cross section size of 150x200 mm and a length of 1400 mm. Three beam specimens were subjected to bending loads with a three point loading system, with different levels of damage, namely BL1 with collapse at level-1, BL2 at level-2, and BL0 at level-5 as a comparison. Then the BL1 and BL2 were retrofitted by being coated with 2 layers of fiberglass which were glued using epoxy resin. Beams BL-1 and BL-2 are then subjected to a bending test again until they reach level-5 collapse. The test results showed that retrofitted beams were able to increase flexural strength, BL-1 increased 115.15% from the original load and BL-2 increased 52.27% from the original load.
Ein schweigendes Paar mit totem Baby

Published: June 2021

Zu mir kommt ein Paar Ende 30 nach dem Tod ihres Babys im achten Lebensmonat. Ihr Junge kam schon in der 28. Schwangerschaftswoche viel zu früh auf die Welt. Das Paar, beide eher »im Schweigen« aufgewachsen, verloren sich in ihren alten biografischen Mustern. Keiner konnte dem anderen erzählen oder zuhören, beide waren erstarrt. Die intraund interpsychische Dynamik der beiden konnte in der Behandlung deutlich werden. Dieser Fallbericht zeigt das Aufbrechen alter transgenerationaler Muster unter den Bedingungen dieser übergroßen Trauer. Insgesamt handelt es sich um eine Paaroder Familientherapie von 25 Doppelstunden; sie stammt aus der Abschlussarbeit in psychoanalytischer Paarund Familientherapie.
