El poder material en la estrategia religiosa jesuita. A propósito de un centenario
Authors: Del Pino-Díaz Fermín
Published: October 2018

El presente artículo pretende aproximarse a la relación entre la espiritualidad y la actividad de la Compañía de Jesús, orden religiosa que, nacida a mediados del siglo XVI, tiene la peculiaridad de elegir el mundo como escenario de su acción religiosa. Una orden cosmopolita, fuertemente jerarquizada, marcada por el Humanismo y, por lo mismo, asociada al reconocimiento del valor cultural del otro, cuyo éxito se vincula a esos rasgos originales que estudiándolos pueden ayudar a comprender mejor lo que ocurre en el presente, tanto en el interior de la misma orden como en la actual sociedad globalizada.
La esperanza en el humanismo de Laín Entralgo
Authors: Rodríguez Acevedo Cruz Javier
Published: October 2018

La antropología de la esperanza en los estudios de Laín parte de la biología de la espera y navegando a través de la antropología y la metafísica arriba en una teología de la esperanza. Para Laín la esperanza del hombre es ser en sí escatológico abierto a sus posibilidades de futuro, como modo de ser de la existencia humana. La idea lainiana de la esperanza consiste en la necesidad óntica y existencial de obtener una respuesta cuando el hombre se pregunta.
Una mirada a la empresa desde la lógica del encuentro
Authors: González Iglesias Sonia , Sastre Jiménez Antonio
Published: October 2018

El artículo se propone iluminar la realidad empresarial desde una mirada ampliada y profunda: abordando tanto su objetivo inmediato, producir beneficio, como su misión social, contribuir al bien común y generar desarrollo personal y comunitario. Sin querer contraponer, sino integrar ambos. El camino que proponemos para ello es el siguiente: primero, parar un momento para preguntarnos quién es la persona –aquella que crea con otras el sistema empresarial- qué necesita para su desarrollo y crecimiento, cuál es la lógica del ser humano. El siguiente paso será, sin perder de vista la naturaleza humana, preguntarnos por la empresa, qué es y a qué está llamada, en qué consiste la lógica del beneficio en la que la mayoría está instalada y si es compatible con la lógica propia del ser humano. Y a la luz de esos dos pasos: un tercero: poner en diálogo –no en dialéctica- ambas lógicas.
Sobre el totalitarismo liberal
Authors: Negro Pavón Dalmacio
Published: October 2018

Expone el estudio cómo, tras la caída de los dos principales totalitarismos, afronta ahora Europa una encrucijada histórica en que las semillas totalitarias del marxismoleninismo y de la socialdemocracia, germinan en las formas totalitarias “neoliberales”. Para ello, analiza los milenarismos escindidos del tronco cristiano que son el leninismo -comunismo- y el lasallismo -socialdemocracia-.

Propuesta de nueva clasificación de la obra cinematográfica de Alfred Hitchcock a la luz de las implicaciones morales de la posición de cámara y el montaje. Estilos de Unidad y Fragmentación
Authors: DEL VALLE MORILLA Ana María
Published: October 2018

La extensa obra cinematográfica de Alfred Hitchcock puede ser leída con un objeto formal relacional (el vínculo entre la mirada del director sobre el mundo y los tipos de encuadre y montaje elegidos en cada caso). Podemos entender que un director pone su sistema de valores y su forma de entender el mundo en cada acto comunicativo que representa su posición de cámara y también en el modo en el que cose los planos en el montaje. Si seguimos este enfoque y analizamos concienzudamente toda la obra del director, encontramos dos estilos diferenciados que coinciden con hitos biofílmicos del director: su salud y la de su esposa, los enfrentamientos con sus actrices, la falta de reconocimiento por parte de la industria cinematográfica, la inclusión del medio televisivo y sus tecnologías, etc. Así, podemos identificar un estilo de Unidad, entre los años 1927 y 1959 y un estilo de Fragmentación entre los años 1960 y 1976. A continuación indicamos las características de cada uno.
Vicisitudes de los sagrado en el arte contemporáneo: del silencio al neomisticismo
Authors: LÓPEZ RASO Pablo
Published: October 2018

Aunque la secularización de la sociedad occidental determinó que muchos artistas modernos abandonasen todo lo que pudiera tener algún sentido religioso, ciertos creadores siguieron encontrando inspiración en el misterio de lo numinoso en algún momento de su carrera. El texto revisa la relación mantenida por importantes referentes del arte del siglo XX con un tipo de creación motivada más por lo transcendente, que por la subjetividad e inmanencia que caracterizó a la revolución artística moderna. La presencia de lo transcendente en la obra de artistas contemporáneos es un fenómeno generalmente evitado o silenciado por la historiografía artística y que sin embargo ha cobrado fuerza en los últimos tiempos a partir de la postmodernidad.
Cuidado de lo íntimo: concepto de persona y propuesta de formación en el grado de enfermería
Authors: SARRIÓN BRAVO Juan Antonio , ABENGÓZAR MUELA Ricardo
Published: October 2018

Si entendemos la intimidad como la zona espiritual íntima reservada, y que la enfermedad afecta a la totalidad de la persona, podemos colegir que el cuidado es integral y eficaz si incluye esos aspectos íntimos de la persona. Diferentes estudios demuestran que el cuidado espiritual depende de la formación y del desarrollo de la espiritualidad del profesional de enfermería. Partiendo de esta concepción, se plantea la necesidad de incluir, en la formación universitaria de enfermería, competencias que le ayuden en ese cuidado: formación en humanidades, la metodología enfermera orientada al cuidado de los problemas relacionados con la espiritualidad, y el desarrollo de la propia espiritualidad.

Authors: Hirsch Edit , Nacsa Márió , Ender Ferenc , Mohai Miklós , Nagy Zsombor K. , Marosi György J.
Published: October 2018

Nanoscale fibers were prepared for the fabrication of scaffolds by using a strong electrostatic field on the polymer solution. Electrospinning is widely applied for production of drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine systems as well as biosensors and enzyme immobilization. Nanofibers, thanks to their high surface area to volume ratio, can also mimic the extracellular matrix, thus it has been recognized as a suitable technique for the fast fabrication of scaffolds. This article demonstrates the fabrication of several nanofibrous scaffolds from biopolymers such as polycaprolactone, poly(lactic acid), poly(lactide-co-glycolide), poly(lactide-co-caprolactone) and poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxy valerate). The characterization and comparison of the scaffolds were achieved based on the morphology and surface characteristic of the nanofibers. The samples showed hydrophobic characteristic, thus a plasma surface treatment was applied successfully to increase hydrophilicity and the effect of the treatment was evaluated based on the wettability and the change in elemental composition of the surface based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Background: Hypertension is a chronic and debilitating disease. Its complications are increasing all over the world, leading to life threatening medical problems like cardiovascular diseases, stroke and end stage renal diseases. An association between hyperlipidemia and hypertension has been identified.Objectives: The study was carried out to observe the association of serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol level with hypertension in adult female subjects.Method: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, during the period of January 2011 to December 2011. A total number of sixty female subjects were selected with age ranging from30 to50 years. Among them 30 female subjects with hypertension were included from out-patient department of Medicine, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka as study group(B) and 30 apparently healthy females were taken as control group(A) for comparison. Estimation of serum fasting serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were done by enzymatic method in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College Dhaka in both groups. Systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of all participants were recorded by standard method. Data were analyzed by Unpaired Student’s- test and Pearson's correlation co-efficient (r) test as applicable.Result: The value of fasting serum LDL level was significantly higher in subjects with hypertension than those of control. Fasting serum HDL level was significantly lower in subjects with hypertension in comparison to control. In subjects with hypertension fasting serum LDL-C showed positive correlation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure and serum HDL-C showed negative correlation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure.Conclusion: Present study revealed that systolic and diastolic blood pressure has positive relationship with low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and negative relationship with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels.Bangladesh Crit Care J September 2018; 6(2): 74-79

Authors: Jabeen Noor E , Akhter Sanzida , Rahman Mohd Mozibor
Published: October 2018

Creutzfeldt Jakob disease (CJD) is an incurable, invariably fatal, rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by an abnormal isoform of a cellular glycoprotein known as the prion protein. CJD occurs worldwide, estimated annual incidence is about one case per million populations per year. Sporadic Creutzfeldt Jakob disease (sCJD) is a human prion disease; infection with this disease usually leads to death within one year of onset of illness. The characteristic clinical & diagnostic features of rapidly progressive dementia, myoclonus, visual or cerebellar signs, pyramidal/extrapyramidal sign, Akinetic mutism and positive result on the presence of 14-3-3 protein in CSF assay, typical EEG features and MRI findings of brain are highly suggestive of diagnosis. Biopsy of brain for histopathological examination is more specific & confirmatory for diagnosis. This article reports a case of sCJD who was diagnosed by characteristic findings of MRI of brain, Electroencephalography (EEG) & cerebrospinal (CSF) assay at National University Hospital (NUH), Singapore and later on admitted at United Hospital Limited (UHL) Dhaka for palliative and supportive management.Bangladesh Crit Care J September 2018; 6(2): 100-101

Echinococcosis is a parasitic disease endemic in many parts of the world. Liver is the most common affected organ followed by lungs. However, the infestation of the latter is usually secondary to another infected organ system. Symptoms are not specific and can be produced by the mass effect or cyst complications. In the article we are reporting a case of pulmonary echinococcosis in a middle aged male, where the patient presented with symptoms of fever, cough with expectoration, weight loss and dysponea. An extensive work-up showed no other foci of infestation, hence final diagnosis was done based on chest radiography and tomography scan findings and was successfully treated with Albendazole.Bangladesh Crit Care J September 2018; 6(2): 105-107

The Shaykh al-Islam in Medieval Khurasan
Authors: Mahendrarajah Shivan
Published: October 2018

The shaykh al-Islam emerged in early Islamic Khurasan. A shaykh al-Islam's social-political roles developed organically, and his duties were exogenous to state bureaucracies. The Seljuq vizier, Niẓām al-Mulk, struck upon a “brilliant and original” scheme, to use the shaykh al-Islam to shape Islamic curricula and control lecturers. He officialized the position by appointing his “own lieutenant” as the shaykh al-Islam of Nishapur. Shāh-Rukh restarted the Seljuq initiative by appointing the shaykh al-Islam of Herat. The Timurid initiative was continued by the Safavids. The Ottoman şeyhülislam became the Empire's most formidable religious official. He presided over its educational system (ilmiye).

There are two classes of shaykhs al-Islam: urban and rural. A city's shaykh al-Islam was the chief of its educational network of seminaries, hospices, teachers, and students; he examined the qualifications of lecturers, arbitrated disputes, and harmonized conflicts of law. A rural shaykh al-Islam was a local lord: major landholder, administrator, and magistrate. Typically, he was the custodian of a prominent Sufi shrine. The shaykh al-Islam's/shrine custodian's standing, and the influence and affluence of his institution within its catchment area, were enhanced by the Ilkhanids, Kartids, and Timurids when they tasked him with managing hydrological systems and agricultural production.
The restored mausoleum of Abu'l-Walid in Herat: Challenges in heritage restoration in Afghanistan
Authors: Najimi Abdul Wasay
Published: October 2018

This is an account of the contemporary reconstruction of Abu'l-Walid complex (mosque and mausoleum) in Herat, the burial-place of a widely-respected-Muslim scholar of the third/ninth century. This structure was destroyed by aerial bombardment in 1985. Part of the complex was restored as a post-war measure to rehabilitate social and educational space for the inhabitants and children of the nearby village. The project also trained young architects and masons of Herat in the conservation of historic buildings. The mausoleum remained in ruins until the Department of Herat Monuments (DoHM) with support of local resources and pious endowments (waqf), reconstructed it between 2004 and 2007. Restoration of heritage buildings is a challenge in Afghanistan today. Absence of public awareness of the value of cultural heritages, government's limited technical capacity combined with scarcity of funds for preservation, and lack of budget for post-conservation maintenance, exacerbates the challenges of safeguarding historic sites and monuments.
Acoustic Simulation of Julius Caesar’s Battlefield Speeches
Authors: Boren Braxton
Published: October 2018

History contains many accounts of speeches given by civic and military leaders before large crowds prior to the invention of electronic amplification. Historians have debated the historical accuracy of these accounts, often making some reference to acoustics, either supporting or refuting the accounts, but without any numerical justification. The field of digital humanities, and more specifically archaeoacoustics, seeks to use computational techniques to provide empirical data to improve historical analysis. Julius Caesar recalled giving speeches to 14,000 men after the battle of Dyrrachium and another to 22,000 men before the battle of Pharsalus during the Roman Civil War. Caesar’s background and education are discussed, including his training in rhetoric and oratory, which would have affected his articulation and effective sound pressure level while addressing his troops. Based on subjective reports about Caesar’s oratorical abilities, his effective Sound Pressure Level (SPL) is assumed to be 80 dBA, about 6 dB above the average loud speaking voice but lower than that of the loudest trained actors and singers. Simulations show that for reasonable background noise conditions Caesar could have been heard intelligibly by 14,000 soldiers in a quiet, controlled environment as in the speech at Dyrrachium. In contrast, even granting generous acoustic and geometric conditions, Caesar could not have been heard by more than about 700 soldiers while his army was on the march before the battle of Pharsalus.

As a new type of promising semiconductor photocatalyst, SnO2 cannot be widely applied due to its low utilization efficiency to visible light and swift recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes. These drawbacks were effectively overcome by preparing the B/Ag/F tridoped SnO2-ZnO composite films using the simple sol–gel method. The degradation of the methyl green and formaldehyde solutions was used to value the photocatalytic activity of the samples. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra and the UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy results of the samples illustrated that the B/Ag/F tridoped SnO2-ZnO composite film not only improved the lifetime of the charge carriers, but also enhanced their visible light absorption. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed that the crystalline SnO2 was in the structure of rutile. As exhibited in the BET surface area results, the specific surface area of pure SnO2 was 19.9 m2g−1, while that of the B/Ag/F tridoped SnO2-ZnO was 85.3 m2g−1. Compared to pure SnO2, SnO2-ZnO, or the mono- or di-doped SnO2-ZnO films, the B/Ag/F tridoped SnO2-ZnO composite film had the highest photocatalytic activity.

In our previous paper, we reported that thermo-responsive emulsions can be prepared based on a long-chain amidoamine derivative (C18AA) and tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB), and that the C18AA + TOAB emulsions developed a characteristic interference color in a narrow temperature range. However, the coloration of the original C18AA + TOAB at room temperature exhibited poor brightness. In the present study, we show that the addition of NaOH is effective in both lowering the coloration temperature and improving the brightness of C18AA + TOAB emulsion considerably. Furthermore, we demonstrate that photo-response function can be imparted to C18AA + TOAB iridescent emulsions by introducing a photochromic naphthopyran derivative (Pyran) that reversibly changes from white to yellow upon UV irradiation. The C18AA + TOAB emulsions containing Pyran shows a dual stimuli-responsive iridescent property, and the emulsion color is controllable and reversible through both UV irradiation and temperature.
A Fast Feature Selection Algorithm by Accelerating Computation of Fuzzy Rough Set-Based Information Entropy
Authors: Zhang Xiao , Liu Xia , Yang Yanyan
Published: October 2018

The information entropy developed by Shannon is an effective measure of uncertainty in data, and the rough set theory is a useful tool of computer applications to deal with vagueness and uncertainty data circumstances. At present, the information entropy has been extensively applied in the rough set theory, and different information entropy models have also been proposed in rough sets. In this paper, based on the existing feature selection method by using a fuzzy rough set-based information entropy, a corresponding fast algorithm is provided to achieve efficient implementation, in which the fuzzy rough set-based information entropy taking as the evaluation measure for selecting features is computed by an improved mechanism with lower complexity. The essence of the acceleration algorithm is to use iterative reduced instances to compute the lambda-conditional entropy. Numerical experiments are further conducted to show the performance of the proposed fast algorithm, and the results demonstrate that the algorithm acquires the same feature subset to its original counterpart, but with significantly less time.
Label Stacking Scenarios in Hybrid Wavelength and Code-Switched GMPLS Networks
Authors: Chen Kai-Sheng
Published: October 2018

Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) is a promising solution to implement high-speed internet protocol (IP) networks by reducing the layer number. To meet the increasing demand for data traffic, optical packet switching (OPS) is integrated under IP to provide high bandwidth to end users. Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) is perfectly compatible with the routing algorithm in IP/MPLS as it supports packet-switching functions. In this paper, we investigate the label stacking scenarios in GMPLS networks. In GMPLS, label stacking is done to reduce the node complexity by appending multiple labels to a single packet. Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) and optical code-division multiplexing (OCDM) signals have been widely used as identifying labels. As the labels can be permutated among the wavelengths or code dimensions, the structure of a label stack can be varied. However, studies on the relationship between label stacking scenarios and network performance are limited. To investigate this issue, we propose three label stacking models: sequential code distribution; sequential wavelength distribution, and random label distribution. The simulation results show that the sequential wavelength assignment, wherein the labels are uniformly distributed among the wavelengths, exhibits the best system performance in terms of the label-error rate (LER).

To increase the electrical power quality, in the last decades, an intense development in the last decades of high-performance equipment built as advanced power electronics applications, such as the compensators from Switching Power Converter category, has taken place. For all that, Reactive Power Compensators (RPC) based on passive circuit elements, such as Static var Compensators (SVCs), still occupy a wide range of applications in customer and installations of the distribution system installations. The functions of power factor (PF) improvement and load balancing in a three-phase distribution network can be achieved with an unbalanced SVC, known as the Adaptive Balancing Reactive Compensator (ABRC). Presenting first the mathematical model of the initial sizing and the working mechanism of a Balancing Reactive Compensator (BRC) for a three-phase four-wire network, this article develops a compensator resizing algorithm through an iterative change of the initial sizing to transform the compensator into a Balancing Capacitive Compensator (BCC), which keeps the same functions. By using two computational and modeling software tools, a case study on the application of the method was carried out, demonstrating the availability of the sizing problem solution and validating the unbalanced capacitive compensation as an efficient way to PF improving and load balancing in a PCC (Point of Common Coupling).

Published: October 2018

Quantifying nonlinear dynamic behaviors, such as bifurcation and chaos, in nonlinear systems are currently being investigated. In this paper, permutation entropy is used to characterize these complex phenomena in nonlinear direct current-direct current (DC-DC) converter systems. A mode switching time sequence (MSTS), containing the information from different periodic states, is obtained in a DC-DC converter by reading the inductor current when altering the switching mode. To obtain the nonlinear characteristics of this system, the concept of permutation entropy of symbolic probability distribution properties is introduced and the structure of the chaotic system is reproduced based on the theory of phase space reconstruction. A variety of nonlinear dynamic features of the DC-DC converter are analyzed using the MSTS and permutation entropy. Finally, a current-mode-controlled buck converter is reviewed as a case to study the quantification of nonlinear phenomena using permutation entropy as one of the system parameters changes.

Polymer flooding is an important enhanced oil recovery technology introduced in field projects since the late 1960s. The key to a successful polymer flood project depends upon proper estimation of polymer retention. The aims of this paper are twofold. First, to show the mechanism of polymer flooding and how this mechanism is affected by polymer retention. Based on the literature, the mobility ratio significantly increases as a result of the interactions between the injected polymer molecules and the reservoir rock. Secondly, to provide a better understanding of the polymer retention, we discussed polymer retention types, mechanisms, factors promoting or inhibiting polymer retention, methods and modeling techniques used for estimating polymer retention.

Published: October 2018

With the growing of using photovoltaic (PV) units in power distribution systems, the role of high-performance power electronic converters is increasing. In this paper, modelling and control of Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) are addressed for grid integration of PV units. Designing a proper controller for MMC is crucial during faulty conditions to make the converter stable and provide proper dynamic performance. To achieve this goal, a dynamic model of MMC is presented which it includes symmetrical components of voltage and current. Then, adaptive robust current controllers are developed based on sliding mode and fuzzy controllers for MMC and then the robustness and stability of the controllers are proved by the Lyapunov theory. To implement the proposed controllers under unbalanced grid voltage fault, positive and negative sequences current controllers are implemented to compensate the effect of grid voltage fault and load power variation. Finally, numerical results are shown to evaluate the performance of MMC. In the end, the experimental results are given to prove the controller performance. The outcome indicates that the proposed current controllers are more effective under voltage disturbance conditions and could satisfy the stability of MMC.

Published: October 2018

The high performance of parts is determined by the microstructure of the machined surface to some extent. Different processing methods have been used to construct different microstructures on machined surfaces; the effective improvement of the serviceability of parts has been the focus of research in the field of precision and ultra-precision machining. In the presented work, a microscratch was formed on the machined surface in ultrasonic assisted machining, and the surface microstructure of high-performance aluminum alloy processed by single-excitation rotational longitudinal–torsional coupled ultrasonic vibration (LTCUV) milling was investigated. First, the motion paths model of the cutting edge in the LTCUV milling were established; then, the single-excitation LTCUV milling system has been set up, and the acoustic performance of the LTCUV system was examined. The surface microstructure of aluminum alloy was processed by different machining techniques, and the effect of processing parameters on the surface microstructure and performance were investigated by the orthogonal design of experiment (DOE). The surface roughness was found to be proportional to the ultrasonic cutting speed and feeding rate. The surface roughness was mainly controlled by the ultrasonic amplitude, and the optimal surface quality corresponded to the ultrasonic amplitude of 4 μm. The cutting speed contributes greatly to the surface roughness. The water contact angle of surfaces obtained by ultrasonic processing was larger than that of surfaces achieved by the conventional processing, while the surface water contact angle was negatively related to the ultrasonic amplitude. Once the rotation speed exceeded a critical level, the ultrasonic amplitude exerted a negligible effect on the surface water contact angle. The cutting speed contributes the most to the water contact angle. The friction coefficients of surfaces treated by ultrasonic processing were lower than those obtained by conventional processing at constant processing parameters, while the friction coefficient was minimized at the ultrasonic amplitude of 4 μm. In the case of grease lubrication friction, the surface wear decreased with the ultrasonic amplitude, indicating the improved wear resistance of the processed surfaces. Similarly, the ultrasonic amplitude has the highest contribution rate to friction and wear.
