Political or Aesthetical Subversion? Strategies of Avant-Garde Speaking Choirs in Interwar Hungary
Authors: Szolláth Dávid
Published: August 2022

Speaking choirs were underground artistic groups of labor-class youth in Hungary in the period between the two World Wars. The groups, led mostly by Avant-Garde artists, were artistic and political communities also. Dadaism, Expressionism and Constructivism, Soviet Proletkult and revolutionary mass festivals had considerable influence on the speaking choir movement. Politically, a number of the choirs were influenced by the Social Democratic Party, others by the illegal Communist Party, but some of them, such as the choir of Kassák or the company of Palasovszky, were autonomous leftist groups that strove to remain detached from any kind of party influence. In the paper I will give two examples of works written especially for speaking choirs. One is a poem by probably the best known twentieth century Hungarian poet, Attila József (Tömeg [Crowd], 1930). The other is a mass play of multiple choirs written for street performance. It is called Punalua (1926), it was written by a lesser known Avant-Gardist poet and stage director, Ödön Palasovszky, and due to its grand scale, it was never performed. The poem of Attila József, though a masterpiece of its genre, remains enclosed in its own sociocultural context whereas Punalua is still open to reinterpretations.
The Great Béla Bartók: An International and Interdisciplinary Perspective
Authors: Hertz David Michael
Published: August 2022

A 21st century review of Béla Bartók’s cultural position in the early twentieth century from an interdisciplinary point of view, first beginning with Bartók’s early musical training, then his theatre works, which involved the collaborations of such figures as Béla Balázs and Melchior Lendyl. Bartok’s familiarity with their thinking documents the impact of international Symbolist and Art Nouveau culture in his own formation, as well as the common interest in the folkloric elements incorporated by Bartók and others in this era. Also, Bartók’s achievement will be considered in relation to other significant composers on the international scene in the first half of the twentieth century, including figures such as Igor Stravinsky, Charles Ives, and Arnold Schoenberg. With special mention of Mihály Szegedy-Maszák’s writings on Béla Bartók, including his “Bartók’s Place in Cultural History.”
The MA (Today) and Tomorrow : Film Theory and Practice in the Classical and Neo-avant-garde
Authors: Gelencsér Gábor
Published: August 2022

MA (‘Today’) published only a few articles and documents about films, but these were the most important ones in the period of silent cinema. These articles concentrated around 1921, the starting point of international avant-garde cinema (German Expressionism, French Surrealism, the Soviet montage film). The most important ones are Victor Eggeling’s fundamental essay on moving picture (published first in Hungarian in Kassák’s periodical 1921 No. 8) and László Moholy-Nagy’s illustrated film plan (written in 1921/22, published in an extra issue of 1924). The paper examines the theoretical and historical context of the two texts and their influences to the next avant-garde period in Hungarian cinema of the 1960s and 1970s. It seeks to find connections between the classical and neo-avant-garde period, among others, in the fields of intermediality and political sensibility, which are the most particular attributes of the two periods, except the fundamental difference, namely that the classical period produced only theoretical works and plans, and no (Hungarian) films, while the neo-avant-garde period had both theoretical and practical outcomes, as it can be seen in the life work of Gábor Bódy.
Conscientização para o problema do ruído nas instalações hidráulicas prediais
Authors: R. Bistafa Sylvio
Published: August 2022

[INTRODUÇÃO] A expansão vertical das cidades aliada à peculiaridade do sistema de abastecimento de água brasileiro, com caixa d' agua elevada, tem originado problemas de ruído nas instalações hidráulicas prediais. Este inconveniente poderá ser sentido quando da operação de aparelhos hidráulicos sanitários instalados sob alta pressão de alimentação. O ruído gerado não somente restringe-se ao quarto de banho, como também poderá causar incômodo aos aposentos vizinhos. Já foram constatados casos de ruídos com níveis bastante elevados em ambientes adjacentes a banheiros onde estivesse sendo utilizada uma válvula de descarga. Apesar de inúmeras queixas, muito pouco se tem feito para minimizar este desagradável problema. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo a conscientização para o problema do ruído nas instalações hidráulicas prediais, bem como o de apresentar os métodos desenvolvidos em outros países para avaliação do problema; métodos estes que já contam com normalização específica.

Authors: Julian Amanda Cristina
Published: August 2022

O Glass Ceiling, ou Teto de Vidro são nomenclaturas que se referem a barreiras invisíveis existentes nos ambientes de trabalho, que impedem o desenvolvimento e crescimento de determinados indivíduos. Nesse contexto, como um dos elos de atuação da responsabilidade social de uma cooperativa está a promoção de igualdade entre gêneros, por meio da promoção da diversidade, pois possuem em seu cerne o anseio para mitigação das adversidades sociais no ambiente em que estão inseridas. Desse modo, esse estudo teve como objetivo identificar a presença do Glass Ceiling nas cooperativas do estado de Santa Catarina, voltado ao impedimento do progresso feminino. Por meio da aplicação de uma survey, e com uma amostra de 369 associados e colaboradores, percebem o ambiente cooperativista como propulsor da igualdade de gêneros. Com isso, foi possível identificar que as entidades cooperativistas conseguem contribuir para a mitigação do fenômeno do Glass Ceiling. O estudo pode contribuir para que os profissionais de recursos humanos, gestão de pessoas e empregadores em geral possam iniciar análises da possibilidade da existência do fenômeno no ambiente corporativo que faz parte, para contribuir com a redução da presença do Teto de Vidro em todos os grupos

Authors: Inofuente Peñaloza Jaqueline Edith
Published: August 2022

Pretendemos propiciar el reconocimiento de la naturaleza como Sujeto de Derecho, mediante una propuesta de reforma parcial constitucional – con la incorporación del artículo 3-A y modificación de los artículos 1°, 66° y 67° de la Constitución Política del Perú-, para dotarla de terminología más idónea que asegure su protección y respeto, abriendo el debate para visibilizar la necesidad de cambiar nuestra concepción antropocentrista que nos ha llevado a la destrucción de la vida; y, en vez nos permitamos estrechar los lazos de unidad con la naturaleza, con el fin de generar conciencia colectiva, que es la clave para afrontar y en lo posible, frenar la depredación ambiental. Modificación constitucional, que permitiría generar un nuevo pacto social, orientado a sellar nuestra comunión con la Pachamama, y, por ende, propiciar un tratamiento jurídico destinado a garantizar la eficacia en la justicia social ambiental. Ello, bajo los siguientes puntos estudiados con el método deductivo -valorativo: (i) la importancia de comprender y recobrar los vínculos de unidad con la Pachamama, (ii) el derecho comparado respecto al reconocimiento de la naturaleza como sujeto de derecho, (iii) las implicancias del reconocimiento de la Pachamama como Sujeto de Derecho, y (iv) propuestas de modificación constitucional; adhiriendo conceptos hacia una perspectiva más amplia de tutela de la naturaleza.

BENEFICIOS E IMPORTANCIA DE LA PROMOCIÓN Y PRESERVACIÓN DE LAS ÁREAS VERDES URBANAS EN LA CIUDAD DE PUNO
Authors: Quispe Ticona Kevin Elderts
Published: August 2022

La globalización es una realidad que innegablemente proporciono una interconexión, otrora insospechada, en distintas materias. Realmente gracias a esto es que ahora podemos disfrutar de beneficios que seguramente hubieran sido casi utópicos antaño; sin embargo, a la par del avance acelerado y casi imparable, también se redujeron notablemente las áreas verdes, pero más que ello, se encuentra un desentendimiento de la sociedad por este tema. En el presente artículo, con el análisis del caso concreto de la ciudad de Puno, se ha encontrado una tasa preocupante de personas que desconocen los beneficios que trae a una ciudad contar con áreas verdes, y lo que es aún más alarmante, no tienen el interés de promocionarla o preservarla, lo cual no hace más que evidenciar la necesidad de darle notoriedad y relevancia a este tema. Los beneficios de las áreas verdes son múltiples, tanto en la salud como en temas sociales y especialmente en el tema medioambiental para trasmitir estos beneficios a las generaciones venideras.

Published: August 2022

A artroplastia total de quadril (ATQ) é um procedimento cirúrgico complexo cada vez mais comum nos últimos anos. Pode levar a dor no quadril com perdas da funcionalidade e estabilidade, tornando- se crucial uma intervenção fisioterapêutica no período pós-operatório. O objetivo do trabalhoé propor um protocolo de fisioterapia aquática para a reabilitação de um paciente no pós-operatório tardio de ATQ. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, paciente do sexo feminino, 57 anos, 15 meses de PO. Após aprovação do projeto pelo comitê de ética em pesquisa, a paciente foi submetida a duas sessões semanais de Fisioterapia Aquática (FA) na piscina aquecida do campus FAEFI - UFU. Foram realizadas 25 sessões com duração de 60 minutos cada, divididas em 4 momentos: aquecimento, fortalecimento, alongamento e relaxamento. Os métodos utilizados para a FA foram o Método dos Anéis de BadRagaz e Halliwick. Após a intervenção fisioterapêutica, verificamos um aumento da força muscular para os músculos flexores, abdutores, adutores e rotadores externos de quadril, a distância percorrida no teste de caminhada de 6 minutos também foi maior bem como foram observadasmelhora de funcionalidade do quadril e diminuição no risco de quedas. Conclui-se, portanto, que o programa de FA foi efetivo para o aumento da força muscular e melhoriado equilíbrio e da funcionalidade do quadril mesmo após um longo período de pós-operatório, o que evidencia a existência de potencial de melhora no pós-operatório tardio da ATQ.

Published: August 2022

Background: Phaeoacremonium parasiticum is a frequently species associated with "Petri's disease" in young plants of grapevine in Peru. One of the main limitations is the use of fungicides and the limited molecules for its control. In this scenario, biological control is an important alternative to integrate in the management of grapevine diseases. Objective: The objective of the research was to evaluate the in vivo efficacy of native antagonists to P. parasiticum and their growth promoting effect on grapevine. Methodology: Plant material from mother plants (R-110) underwent thermotherapy (52.5°C for 30 min). Subsequently, the antagonists (bacteria and fungi) were inoculated by partial immersion at a concentration of 1x106 cfu ml-1 (Colony forming units) for 3 h; 30 days later, P. parasiticum was inoculated, measuring shoot length before inoculation (SLBI). Seventy days after inoculation (DAI), shoot length (SL), length of necrotic stria (LNS), root dry weight (RDW) and root fresh weight (RFW) were measured. Results: Isolate Tr-5 (Trichoderma spp.) increased SLBI by 68%. Bacillus spp. (Bac-1, Bac-2), Trichoderma spp. (Tr-5) and T. harzianum (T-22) increase >40% SL 70 DDI. Tr-6 (Trichoderma spp.), T-22 and Act-2 (Actinomycete) reduce >50% LNS. Bacillus spp. (Bac-2: Bac-3) significantly increase RFW (59.29%: 49.39%) and RDW (60.41%: 55.08%). Implications: Biological control with native antagonists reduces the development of Petri disease and promotes grapevine growth. Conclusions: The native antagonists show growth-promoting effect and control of LEN caused by P. parasiticum at the nursery stage.

Published: August 2022

Background. The management of diseases in soybean crops demands a great economic cost with fungicide applications. Therefore, unnecessary or excessive applications can promote negative environmental results. Therefore, understanding the weather conditions and the development of diseases in the crop is essential to avoid the unnecessary use of fungicides, consequently reducing costs and ensuring the sustainability of the activity. Aim. The aim is to identify which yield components are quantitatively affected, and which aspects of the chemical composition of the grains are qualitatively influenced by fungicide management, in addition to relating the cost-benefit rate of sequential applications or previously stipulated management in the soybean crop, as well as their economic effects under water deficit conditions. Methodology. The trial was carried out using a randomized block design composed of 4 replications. The trial consisted of 5 kinds of fungicide management, defined by the time and number of applications, during the development cycle of the Lança cultivar, in the 2019/2020 crop season. Soybean agronomic traits and nutritional attributes were evaluated. Results. Unfavorable climate conditions contributed to the low rate of Asian rust infection during the soybean development cycle. The different kinds of fungicide management influenced soybean performance for the main agronomic variables studied. For the chemical composition of the grains, there was no statistical difference in relation to the different kinds of fungicide management. Implications. The results indicate that the management of fungicides must be carried out according to the meteorological conditions of the year of cultivation. Conclusion. Management without fungicide application maximized grain yield and promoted the highest economic return.

Background. Cultivation of forage grasses is an important component in the dual-purpose cattle production system; however, insect pests can decrease fresh material yields. Objective. To taxonomically identify the causal agent that damages the cultivars Panicum maximum (Jacq.) cv. Mombasa and Panicum maximum cv. Zuri. Methodology. In two locations in the central region of Veracruz, specimens of an insect in the larval and pupal stages were collected using the quadrant method in an area of 50 ha. Subsequently, in the laboratory, larvae were boiled for two minutes and preserved in 70% alcohol. Meanwhile, pupae were placed in a brood chamber with foliage to obtain adults and to extract their genitalia, which represents the most important morphological structure for the identification of a species. Results. The total number of collected larvae was 650, and 65 pupae, all reaching the adult stage. Based on the taxonomic morphology, the species Mocis latipes or striped grassworm was determined. Damage was estimated at approximately 40% per hectare. Implications. Correct identification of the pest insect allows the implementation of a strategy for proper management. Conclusion. The species M. latipes was identified in forage grasses P. maximum cv. Mombasa and P. maximum cv. Zuri in Veracruz.

Background. In the new global economy, cocoa is an important crop. However, far too little attention has been paid to the nutritional aspects. On the other hand, nitrogen is the most important nutrient in crop production, and mineral nitrogen fertilizers are the most widely used by farmers. Improving the efficiency of nitrogen uptake and utilization could potentially increase crop yields and quality, as well as reduce nitrogen fertilization and environmental pollution. Objective. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of three nitrogen sources on morphological characteristics, yield and quality of CCN-51 cocoa, and soil chemical characteristics in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Methodology. A randomized design was established with 4 treatments with the same N dose, but varying the source (amide: urea, calcium nitrate, NC, and ammonium sulfate, SA), plus a control without N application. The investigated variables are soil chemical characteristics, shoot growth, fruit morphology, seed chemical characteristics, production and yield estimates, and agronomic efficiency of the sources. Results. NC maintained soil pH at 5.29 points compared to SA and urea, which acidified at a higher rate (4.32 and 3.96), leading to an increase of N and a decrease Ca in the soil. SA increased the fat content in the cocoa seed (54.1 %), with a higher number of fruits per plant (16.7) and, therefore, a better yield (0.799 t/ha). Implications. These results provide basic information on the nitrogen source effects and cocoa nutrition to be considered for future research. Conclusion. The findings suggested that NC conserves soil pH better than the other sources. SA increases production and fat content, so it can be considered the most efficient.

The present study deals with both experimental and numerical investigation on buckling effects of laminated composite plates subjected to varying temperature and moisture. A simple laminated plate model is developed for the buckling of composite plates subjected to adverse hygrothermal loading. A computer program based on FEM in MATLAB environment is developed to perform all necessary computations. The woven fiber Glass/Epoxy specimens were hygrothermally conditioned in a humidity cabinet where theconditions were maintained at temperatures of 300K-425K and relative humidity (RH) ranging from 0-1% for moisture concentrations. All the investigations are made with a symmetric cross-ply laminates. The present study deals with both experimental and numerical investigation on buckling behavior of laminated composite plates subjected to varying temperature and moisture concentration. Quantitative results are presented to show the effects of geometry, material and lamination parameters of woven fiber laminate onbuckling of composite plates for different temperature and moisture concentrations with simply supported boundary conditions with different aspect and side-to-thickness ratios. Experimental results show that there is reduction in buckling loads in KN with the increase in temperature and moisture concentration for laminates with clamped-free-clamped-free boundary conditions
Numerical simulation of a conical roofed low-rise building to estimate the wind pressure coefficients
Authors: Jagbir Singh  , Amrit Kumar Roy
Published: August 2022

The roof shape and the slope of the roof are both significant constraints for the protection of the structure against wind load. The present study aims to investigate the variation of wind pressure coefficients on the conical roof and to observe the wind behavior around the building. CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software ANSYS has been used for modeling and simulation. It is found that the 35° roof slope is the optimum roof angle for the present study, as there is the least area-weighted average pressure coefficient for this roof angle. While the roof slope 30° is found the most critical roof angle in terms of wind load resistance among all the roof angles of the present study.

ABSTRACT This article describes the finite element analysis of concrete columns with a hollow square reinforced which restricted with a square Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced polymer (CFRP) tube.  In this study, about sixteen square hollow core columns were investigated. These columns were classified into four sets. The set number one was the reference set which involved four unconfined reinforced columns with traditional steel helices and longitudinal steel bars. The columns of the 2nd category have a similar configuration as the set number one except that these columns were restricted outwardly by the CFRP tube. The columns of the set number were restricted outwardly by a CFRP tube and restricted inwardly by a steel tube. Finally, the columns of the 4th category do not have a steel reinforcement where they produced with only an outer CFRP tube and an inner steel tube. These columns were exposed to various loading conditions: concentric, eccentric (22 and 44) mm, and four bendings' points. It was investigated that the CFRP tube confinement faintly improved the columns’ strength. Moreover, the use of a steel tube as inner confinement in the columns with a hollow section led to improve the structural performance and ductility.

Past research has revealed that a Variable Frequency Pendulum Isolator (VFPI) effectively controls the structural responses such as base shear and structural acceleration under far and near fault earthquakes and the VFPI may show excessive sliding displacement under some earthquakes having 4-6 s time-period long waves. But, the impact of the amplitude of the long period wave on the sliding displacement of VFPI is missing in past research due to difficulty in finding out the amplitude of long period wave of an earthquake. Therefore, the present study considered the amplitude of the long period wave of an earthquake to analyse the behaviour of the structure isolated by VFPI. For this, the most dangerous long period wave of earthquakes has been extracted in the form of noise free wavelets by using Mavroeidis and Papageorgiou proposed numerical approach. The results indicate that the noise free long period wavelet effectively represent the low frequency earthquake for the structure isolated by VFPI. It is also found out that, the VFPI shows the excessive sliding displacement for only those earthquakes which contains peak ground displacement of long period wave more than 0.40 m. The variation in the base shear and structural acceleration of structure isolated by VFPI under various value of Frequency Variation Factor (FVF) obey the exponential and cubic form respectively. According to this, the present research provides empirical formulas, chart, and tables to predict the structural and isolator responses by using the peak ground velocity (PGV) and dominating low frequency (fd) of a near fault earthquake.

Incorporating Graphene Oxide (GO) in concrete composite has been a good alternative to Pristine Graphene due to its hydrophilic nature and its ability to readily disperse in water the consequent cementitious mix. The addition of GO to the cementitious mix has been found to enhance mechanical properties. This paper aims to assess the abrasion resistance of GO incorporated concrete for its application in road pavement design. Experiments for strength in terms of compression, workability in terms of slump and abrasion resistance in accordance with ASTM-C418-20 using a sand-blasting rig are presented in the paper. It is shown that the addition of GO at percentages between 0% to 0.08% (to cement weight ratio), the compressive strength improves by 39% and 26% at 7 days and 28 days, respectively. The addition of GO consequently affected the workability where it was found that the addition of polycarboxylate ether (PCE) (superplasticisers) can drastically improve the workability, which is essential in practical applications. The abrasion was measured for specimens prepared with a high GO percentage between 0.1% to 0.3% and measured at 7 days and displayed a reduction of 70% of abraded volume at 0.3% GO.  Finally, the study presents the benefits of using GO where the reduced amount of cement usage will consequently lead to sustainable concrete construction.

The construction of tall and slender buildings has seen recent growth in many cities around the world. Tall buildings are susceptible to dynamic excitation under wind effects which typically govern the structural design for strength, stability, and serviceability. This paper presents the state of the art in the analysis and design of tall buildings against wind effects. Structural design criteria are discussed in detail, with serviceability criteria relating to occupant comfort noted as being of particular importance. The latest in wind analysis tools and techniques is also presented. Wind tunnel testing remains the gold standard for determining wind loads on tall buildings, while the emerging use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is noted as being particularly useful for concept design stages. The paper aims to provide a valuable reference for engineers, architects, and designers involved in wind analysis and design of tall buildings.
Ein Argument für den Externalismus
Authors: Dierig Simon
Published: August 2022

The aim of this article is twofold: First, it is argued that Tyler Burge’s case for externalism in the philosophy of mind, which is based on Hilary Putnam’s twin-earth thought experiment, fails. Second, it is shown that a convincing argument for externalism can be nonetheless construed by relying on Putnam’s thought experiment.
Anlassbezogene Sekundärmarktpublizität und soziale Netzwerke in Deutschland und den USA
Authors: Bothe Pascal
Published: August 2022

Social networks are becoming increasingly important and are also used for capital market communication by listed companies. Here, too, the change of the information society becomes apparent - capital market law, however, lags behind this development. The paper examines the permissibility of using social networks for secondary market publicity and takes a critical look at the previous assessment of the criterion "non public" in the context of insider information. In addition, the significantly more liberal legal framework in the USA is considered. The result is a plea for a more open attitude of capital market supervision to allow the use of social networks.
Verfahrensdokumente aus Kartellverwaltungsverfahren im Kartellschadenersatzprozess
Authors: Freund Benedikt
Published: August 2022

The thesis examines possible access routes to documents of the European Commission and the Swiss Competition Commission. At the heart of the thesis lies the question of whether the design and handling by the authorities of the access routes is in line with the aim of actions seeking compensation for cartel damages. To this end, the aim of these actions is explored and different access routes are examined. Finally, the access routes are analysed in regard to which extent the aim of these actions is actually met. The results then form subject of a legislative proposal that takes into account the aim of actions for cartel damages as well as the need for an effective public enforcement.
Das objektive Nettoprinzip im internationalen Steuerwettbewerb

Harmful tax competition raises new challenges for the legislator. With the so-called license barrier, Germany endeavors to influence tax policies of foreign countries – and, to that end, imposes a special fiscal burden on individual taxpayers. Whether this is possible under constitutional and European Union law is still a widely unresolved issue. Therefore, the thesis develops two innovative grounds of justification that enable the legislator to counteract unfair tax practices effectively while adequately preserving freedom. The findings obtained in this context reach far beyond the license barrier and may serve as general guidelines for influencing other states.

Background: Constipation is one of the most common complaints in children. Guidelines on functional constipation recommend digital rectal examination (DRE) when constipation is suspected. However, diagnosis of megarectum by ultrasonography would differentiate children with constipation from those with dysfunctional defecation. Objectives: In this research, we evaluated the utilization of ultrasonography to measure the diameter of rectal ampulla for the diagnosis of functional constipation. Methods: In this study, 94 patients < 14 years old diagnosed with functional constipation were included. Patients were examined by both DRE and ultrasonography before and after a conventional stool softener treatment. Results: The diameter of the rectal ampulla was significantly wider in patients with large stool mass in DRE than in patients with normal digital rectal exams. There was a significant relationship between fecal incontinence and pre-treatment DRA. By increasing the severity of fecal incontinence, the average DRA in patients increased significantly. Additionally, there was a significant statistical difference between the patient’s DRA before and after treatment. Finally, the relationship between constipation and DRA adjusted model showed that the risk of abnormal DRA was 3.1 times larger in patients with three and four symptoms than in patients with two symptoms and this relationship was statistically significant. Conclusions: Ultrasonography can be a suitable replacement for DRE; however, further investigations are required.
