Authors: Mu’min Saud Abdul
Published: November 2019

The development of science, technology and information (science and technology) is very fast and globalization nowadays occur positive and negative impacts on people's lives, both individual and social life. The positive impact of the development of science and technology and the globalization of the labor market is opening opportunities in accordance with the needs of society and the state. While the negative impact is the changing values and norms of life that is often in contradiction with the norms and values of life that has existed in the community. In this context, education, especially primary education, plays a very important to preserve and protect the norms and positive life values that already exist in the society of a country from the negative effects of science and technology development and globalization. The education process is right and quality provided supplies and power to maintain the "identity" of the negative effects of globalization, not only for the interests of individual learners, but also for the benefit of society and the state. National policy development of the noble character education into the national education system is a strategic effort to equip future generations with the noble character of the nation as the identity of Indonesia in global competition. With the character education that is applied systematically and sustainably, a child will be emotionally intelligent. Emotional intelligence is important provision in preparing children to meet the future, because someone will be more easily and successfully face all kinds of life challenges, including the challenge to succeed academically.

Authors: Manjón García Carla , Morillo Macías Virginia , López Tarjuelo Juan
Published: November 2019

Objective: To present the feasibility of the treatment of medulloblastoma with volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planned with RayStation for Elekta linacs and compare the results with conventional treatment.
Materials and methods: 3 adult patients in prone position treated with 3D-conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) with 6 MV and 18 MV were replanned with 6 MV VMAT. The dose prescription was 1.8 Gy/fraction. The evaluation of the techniques was carried out with dose-volume histograms and isodoses in target volumes and healthy tissues, and with conformity (CI) and homogeneity (HI) indexes.
Results: VMAT CI (0.79 ± 0.02) and HI (0.08 ± 0.02) of the tended to be better than those of 3DCRT (CI = 0.58 ± 0.03 and HI = 0.14 ± 0.07). For healthy tissues, a decrease in the maximum absorbed dose was observed (VMAT: D1% = 1.76 ± 0.04 Gy/fraction and 3DCRT: D1% = 1.93 ± 0.04 Gy/fraction) as well as in the overdoses (VMAT: V107% = 0.05 ± 0.08% and 3DCRT: V107% = 1.0 ± 0.5%). The dosimetric results of organs at risk showed no trend when both techniques were compared.
Conclusion: The performance with RayStation of the medulloblastoma treatment by VMAT is viable for Elekta linacs, and a greater coverage, homogeneity and conformation in the target is achieved. Overdoses were also markedly reduced compared with those caused by 3DCRT treatments.

The role of Ag+, Ca2+, Pb2+ and Al3+ adions in the SERS turn-on effect of anionic analytes
Authors: Iancu Stefania D , Stefancu Andrei , Moisoiu Vlad , Leopold Loredana F , Leopold Nicolae
Published: November 2019

In our recent studies we highlighted the role of adsorbed ions (adions) in turning on the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effect in a specific mode for anionic and cationic analytes. In this work, we emphasize the role of Ag+, Ca2+, Pb2+ and Al3+ adions in the specific adsorption of anionic analytes such as the citrate capping agent and three organic acids. Our results suggest an adion-specific adsorption mechanism: the adsorption of anionic analytes is facilitated by positively charged adions such as Ag+, Ca2+, Pb2+ or Al3+, which provide adsorption sites specific for the anionic analytes. The turn-on of the SERS effect is explained in the context of the chemical mechanism of SERS. The adions form SERS-active sites on the silver surface enabling a charge transfer between the adsorbate and the silver surface. High-intensity SERS spectra of uric acid, salicylic acid and fumaric acid could be recorded at a concentration of 50 µM only after activation of the colloidal silver nanoparticles by Ca2+, Pb2+ or Al3+ (50 µM). The chemisorption of the three anionic species to the silver surface occurs competitively and is enhanced with the anions of higher affinities to the silver surface as indicated by the SERS spectra of corresponding mixed solutions.
A New Formation Model for ω Centauri: A Complex Interplay of Astrophysical Processes
Authors: Bekki Kenji , Tsujimoto Takuji
Published: November 2019

We investigate the formation processes of the Galactic globular cluster (GC) ω Cen with multiple stellar populations based on our original hydrodynamical simulations with chemical enrichment by Type II supernovae (SNe II), asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, and neutron star mergers (NSMs). Multiple stellar populations with a wide range of [Fe/H] can be formed from rather massive and compact molecular clouds with a mass of ≈2 × 107
M
⊙ in the central region of its dwarf galaxy within less than a few hundred megayears. Gas ejected from SNe II and AGB stars can mix well to form new stars with higher He abundances (Y) and higher [Fe/H]. The He-rich stars are strongly concentrated in the GC’s central region so that the GC can show a steep negative gradient of Y. Relative ratios of light elements to Fe show bimodal distributions for a given [Fe/H] owing to star formation from original gas and AGB ejecta. [La/Fe] and [Ba/Fe] can rapidly increase until [Fe/H] ∼ −1.5 and then decrease owing to Fe ejection from SNe II. Although AGB ejecta can be almost fully retained in the intracluster medium, NSM ejecta can be retained only partially. This difference in the retention capability is responsible for the observed unique [Eu/Fe]−[Fe/H] and [La/Eu]−[Fe/H] relations in ω Cen. The observed [O/Na]−[Fe/H] relation and radial [Fe/H] gradient are yet to be well reproduced in the present model. We briefly discuss how the results change for different yields of AGB stars and SNe II.
The Formation of CME from Coupling Fan-spine Magnetic System: A Difficult Journey
Authors: Li Haidong , Yang Jiayan , Hong Junchao , Chen Hechao
Published: November 2019

We present the eruption of a mini-filament that caused a large-scale complicated coronal mass ejection (CME) on 2014 March 28, using the high-resolution observations taken by the Solar Dynamic Observatory. Three-dimensional coronal magnetic field extrapolated from the nonlinear force-free field code reveals that the magnetic environment of the eruption source region was a large fan-spine magnetic system that hosted another small fan-spine system under its fan, and the mini-filament was located under the fan structure of the small fan-spine system. Our analysis results suggest that the eruption of the mini-filament underwent three reconnection processes before the formation of the CME. First, the erupting filament triggered the null point reconnection in the small fan-spine system. During this stage, the sudden expansion of the spine field lines also excited a large-scale extreme-ultraviolet wave. Second, the spine field lines of the small fan-spine system were pushed up by the erupting filament and therefore further triggered the null point reconnection in the large fan-spine magnetic system. Third, during the second stage, magnetic reconnection also occurred between the two legs of the stretched confining field lines of the mini-filament. The present study suggests that the formation of the observed CME from the coupling fan-spine magnetic system was more complicated than previously thought, needing to undergo multistage magnetic reconnection processes in the low corona.
Indications for Surgery in Non-Traumatic Spleen Disease
Authors: Coco Danilo , Leanza Silvana
Published: November 2019

The spleen is the largest lymphatic organ that acts as a site for filtration of foreign particles from the blood, erythropoiesis and hematopoiesis. Splenectomy represents the first line of treatment for spontaneous splenic rupture, abscesses, cysts, tumours. It is also used to control hereditary, autoimmune, and myeloproliferative disorders alternatively. Numerous diseases have been indicated for surgery in non-traumatic spleen diseases such as non-traumatic spleen rupture, immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), haemolytic anaemias, Felty's syndrome, Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma among others. This result because the spleen is the most affected lymphoid organ following its overactivity that occurs during sequestration of dead or disrupted RBCs and lymphocytes. Abdominal pain is one of the major manifestations of splenomegaly, and can also designate other associated complications such as liver cirrhosis or bacterial endocarditis. As a secondary lymphoid organ, the spleen is more often an organ for lymphomas. Although splenectomy is a curative alternative in a few diseases, it is a complementary means of treating several other diseases. Splenectomy is a salvage therapy used when other therapeutic alternatives fail. Despite its indication in numerous diseases, controversies are still inbound of its use.

Published: November 2019

AIM: The objective of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the learning of fixed prosthodontics course from the viewpoint of students and faculty members of Kermanshah Dentistry School.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: This research was a descriptive-analytical study conducted using the convenient sampling method. A total of 72 students and 5 faculty members were included in the study. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire containing two sections. The first section consists of demographic information, and the second section consists of 14 questions to evaluate the factors affecting the learning of the fixed prosthodontics course.
RESULTS: From the students’ point of view, there was a significant relationship between the effect of using clinical points during a teaching on the learning efficacy of the fixed prosthodontics course and gender (P = 0.028). There was a statistically significant relationship between the level of professor's knowledge regarding the modern educational methods on the learning of fixed prosthodontics course (P = 0.034). The factor of displaying and implementing practical work on the real patient was considered important by students, and having knowledge about modern educational methods was considered important by faculty members.
CONCLUSIONS: It is recommended that appropriate educational planning be implemented to enhance students’ practical work on the real patient and increase professors’ knowledge about modern educational methods.

Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND: Surgical site infection is one of the major health-care-associated problems causing substantial morbidity and mortality and constituting a financial burden on hospitals as well. The wound management is one of the crucial evidence-based strategies in the reduction of surgical site infection rates
AIM: To study the impact of standardisation of transparent semipermeable dressing procedure on the rate of surgical site infection in comparison with conventional dressing in clean and clean-contaminated surgeries.
METHODS: The study included 100 patients who were admitted to surgical wards in Cairo university hospitals, for clean and clean-contaminated operations, in the period from February 2017 to August 2017. Immunocompromised and uncontrolled diabetic patients were excluded. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups; in the first group, patients wounds were covered using transparent semipermeable dressing, while the second group patients’ wounds were covered using conventional occlusive gauze dressing. Patients were followed up for criteria of infection every other day during the first week then at two weeks, three weeks and four weeks.
RESULTS: In clean and clean-contaminated operations, the transparent dressing group showed a significantly lesser rate of surgical site infection at (2%), compared with the conventional occlusive gauze dressing group with a surgical site infection rate of (14%) (p-value of 0.02).
CONCLUSION: The transparent semipermeable dressing is effective in reducing surgical site infection rate in clean and clean-contaminated operations.

Les nudges pour améliorer l’environnement en économie publique
Authors: Ouvrard Benjamin
Published: November 2019

Ces dernières années, la littérature autour des nudges pour améliorer la qualité environnementale a pris de l’ampleur avec la publication de nombreuses expériences de terrain et l’élaboration de modèles théoriques. En rapprochant la littérature empirique de celle autour des modélisations théoriques, nous discutons les principaux résultats, mais aussi les principales limites de ces approches. En particulier, si les premières études empiriques semblaient indiquer des résultats encourageants avec la mise en place des nudges, des études plus récentes montrent des résultats bien plus nuancés avec, pour certaines, une absence d’effet de ces instruments. En outre, les modèles théoriques actuels, bien qu’étant une première étape, ne permettent pas encore d’appréhender de manière fine la psychologie des agents visés par les nudges.
Effect of probiotic supplementation on cognitive function in children and adolescents: a systematic review of randomised trials
Authors: Rianda D. , Agustina R. , Setiawan E.A. , Manikam N.R.M.
Published: November 2019

Available reviews have shown potential effects of probiotics on neurobehavioral outcomes through ‘gut-brain axis’ mechanism in adults. However, reviews on cognitive function in children and adolescents are lacking. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of the effect of probiotic supplementation on cognitive function in children and adolescents. A search of four databases (Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PsycARTICLES, Scopus, PubMed) was conducted to identify RCTs published from January 1990 to December 2018. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria and their cognitive outcomes were analysed. Only one study found a positive result with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) 1×1010 cfu supplementation with outcomes on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or Asperger syndrome (AS) manifestations as diagnosed using the International Classification of Diseases-10 criteria. The supplementations were administered to Finnish mothers for 4 weeks before delivery and continuously given for 6 months after delivery if they breastfed, or to the children. ADHD or AS was diagnosed at the age of 13 years in 17.1% children in the placebo and none in the probiotic group (P=0.008). This study found significant differences in species composition and number of cells belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium between healthy children and children who later developed ADHD or AS at different time points. Six remaining studies with varying strains, durations of intervention, start-time of administration, and outcomes demonstrated no difference in cognition after probiotic supplementation. Metagenomic analyses on gut microbiota composition were not performed in any of these studies. In conclusion, the favourable effect of probiotic supplementation on cognitive function in children and adolescents was observed in one study with LGG supplementation by a risk reduction of developing ADHD or AS (i.e. autism). More long-term and follow-up trials using probiotics identifying the effect on cognition are warranted before routine use.
Bargaining Under Strategic Uncertainty: The Role of Second‐Order Optimism
Authors: Friedenberg Amanda
Published: November 2019

This paper shows that bargainers may reach delayed agreements even in environments where there is no uncertainty about payoffs or feasible actions. Under such conditions, delay may arise when bargainers face direct forms of strategic uncertainty—that is, uncertainty about the opponent's play. The paper restricts the nature of this uncertainty in two important ways. First, it assumes
on‐path strategic certainty: Bargainers face uncertainty only after surprise moves. Second, it assumes Battigalli and Siniscalchi's (2002)
rationality and common strong belief of rationality (RCSBR)—a requirement that bargainers are “strategically sophisticated.” The main result characterizes the set of outcomes consistent with on‐path strategic certainty and RCSBR. It shows that these assumptions allow for delayed agreement, despite the fact that the bargaining environment is one of complete information. The source of delay is
second‐order optimism: Bargainers do not put forward “good” offers early in the negotiation process because they fear that doing so will cause the other party to become more optimistic about her future prospects.
Antropología portuguesa contemporánea, casi medio siglo desde abril
Authors: Godinho Paula
Published: November 2019

Este artículo es una propuesta de cartografía de la antropología portuguesa, durante el período que comenzó con la transición a la democracia, en 1974, y se extiende hasta nuestros días. Al movilizar la producción de antropólogas y antropólogos, a partir de los trabajos producidos, desde las universidades y la investigación, y desde el papel del Museo Nacional de Etnología, el texto comienza por situar en un tiempo largo la trayectoria de la disciplina, caracterizada por el cosmopolitismo de lo nacional, que se combina con lógicas coloniales, en un enfoque de la nación y del imperio, que se continúa hasta el 25 de abril de 1974. La Revolución de los Claveles inaugura un período de ruptura y creatividad, en el que la antropología portuguesa responde a su propia manera a la propuesta de «democratizar, descolonizar y desarrollar» que se inicia entonces, con una clara expansión de la disciplina en el nuevo marco democrático, a la que se agregan los fondos y el optimismo resultante de la adhesión a la CEE. Este tiempo de ampliación sería violentamente interrumpido, debido a los reflejos de la crisis, provocando la contracción del campo disciplinario y la búsqueda de nuevos caminos. En un momento en que los contornos de la ciencia neoliberal parecen sofocar la capacidad de expansión de la disciplina, limitando los horizontes de los más jóvenes practicantes de la antropología en Portugal, los rastros recientes ponen el énfasis en las/os antropólogas/os en las sociedades futuras.

[pt] Este artigo é uma proposta de cartografia da antropologia portuguesa, no período que se abre com a transição para a democracia, em 1974, e se prolonga até à actualidade. Mobilizando a produção de antropólogas e antropólogos, a partir das obras produzidas, do lugar nas universidades e na investigação, e do papel do Museu Nacional de Etnologia, o texto começa por recolocar num tempo longo o percurso da disciplina, pautado pelo cosmopolitismo do nacional, que se conjuga com lógicas coloniais, numa abordagem da nação e do império, que se continua até 25 de Abril de 1974. A Revolução dos Cravos inaugura um período de ruptura e criatividade, em que a antropologia portuguesa responde, a seu modo, à proposta de «democratizar, descolonizar e desenvolver» que se então se inicia, com uma evidente expansão da disciplina no novo quadro democrático, a que acrescem os fundos e o optimismo resultantes da adesão à CEE. Este tempo de ampliação seria violentamente interrompido, devido aos reflexos da crise, de que resulta a contração do campo disciplinar, e a busca de novos caminhos. Num tempo em que os contornos da ciência neoliberal parecem sufocar a capacidade de expansão da disciplina, limitando os horizontes dos mais jovens praticantes da antropologia em Portugal, os trilhos recentes colocam a ênfase no lugar das antropólogas/os nas sociedades futuras.
Tlatelolco 1968: Memoria de un antropólogo
Authors: Fábregas Puig Andrés A.
Published: November 2019

Este texto está basado en la conferencia de clausura del V Congreso Mexicano de Antropología Social y Etnología que, con el título de «La participación de las y los antropólogos en el movimiento estudiantil del 68», tuve el honor de impartir en la sede de la ENAH en octubre de 2018, justo cuando se cumplían 50 años de una masacre que cambió al país e impactó en toda América Latina. No es LA memoria de aquellos días, sino una particular memoria, la que nace de mis recuerdos como miembro del Consejo Nacional de Huelga. El movimiento estudiantil generado en las fechas previas a la celebración de las Olimpiadas buscaba implantar un régimen político democrático, desterrar el autoritarismo y la corrupción, garantizar la libertad de prensa y de pensamiento, y, en general, instaurar en México el respeto a la libertad ciudadana y el combate contra la desigualdad social. Esto fue visto por el establishment como un peligro para el autoritario orden establecido, por lo que optó por reprimirlo de modo sangriento. Aunque los estudiantes del 68 no consiguieron todo lo que perseguían, México experimentó cambios en su vida pública a partir de un proceso que se inició inmediatamente después de ese movimiento.
Roy Wagner (1938-2018): el espejo humeante de la antropología
Authors: Abrisketa Olatz G.
Published: November 2019

Roy Wagner murió en septiembre de 2018. Este artículo, escrito desde el afecto y la admiración, muestra la originalidad del pensamiento de Wagner y destaca la importancia del mismo para entender no solo la antropología actual, cada vez más in-fluenciada por su trabajo, sino también el propio proceder antropológico y su gran invención: la cultura. El artículo se acerca a momentos de su biografía, a sus gustos y relata anécdotas por él contadas para entender mejor los vínculos disciplinares y teóri-cos que Wagner establece con autores como Claude Lévi-Strauss, Victor Turner, Gregory Bateson o Carlos Castaneda. El artículo incluye al final una amplia bibliografía suya para quienes quieran profundizar en la obra de un autor que va a marcar sin duda la antropología de los próximos tiempos.
Muerte en la Catedral: Cenizas y ritos funerarios en los campos de fútbol
Authors: Vaczi Mariann
Published: November 2019

Un aspecto principal de los ritos funerarios y las prácticas mortuorias modernas y occidentales ha sido un desplazamiento de ubicaciones religiosas-institucionales a otras seculares-privadas. Sin embargo, algunas respuestas performativas, como esparcir las cenizas de los aficionados difuntos en estadios deportivos, continúan definiendo la muerte como una relación social emplazada en un sistema cultural de obligaciones simbólicas más amplio. Los esparcidos de cenizas en los estadios son actos de los que se cree que tendrán consecuencias para el futuro de la comunidad. Hay tres factores que convierten los estadios en emplazamientos pertinentes para la re-ritualización de la muerte: emoción, identidad, e iconicidad. Las intensas experiencias emocionales, la tradición familiar, las narrativas colectivas y el poder transformador del espacio liminal permiten a los aficionados imaginar su propia transición de muerto a vivo, y su presencia continua en el orden social.
Políticas de lo colectivo en entornos de migración transnacional. Posibilidades de lo bangladesí en Lavapiés (Madrid)
Authors: Méndez Méndez Juan Román
Published: November 2019

Este texto reflexiona sobre la construcción de un objeto de estudio en entornos mediados por la migración, donde las procedencias o la etnicidad suelen adquirir una importancia significativa. A partir del caso etnográfico de Migrapiés, un grupo de defensa de derechos de la población migrante, la propuesta que se hace aquí pasa por desplazar el estudio de grupos por el de procesos de colectividad. Esta forma de construir el objeto de estudio puede servir para descentrar el origen como punto de partida de la investigación, evitando reificar la procedencia como elemento principal del análisis.
Historia de la medicina popular: del modelo clásico al glo-local
Authors: Riccò Isabella
Published: November 2019

El papel del folklore médico y las relaciones de hegemonía y subalternidad son elementos fundamentales para comprender el surgimiento de la medicina popular como objeto de estudio. El artículo reconstruye la historia del concepto de medicina popular, centrándose en particular en el contexto italiano y español. Asimismo, el texto pone el foco en lo que significa hablar de medicina popular hoy en día, en el papel las medicinas alternativas y complementarias y en los mecanismos socio-culturales que han permitido el pasaje de la medicina popular en sentido clásico a la medicina popular glo-local. Mediante esta nueva denominación se pretende dar nueva vida al concepto, encuadrándolo dentro de un contexto mucho más amplio, híbrido y plural.
Media and Human Resource Management

Easily mentioned, but not that much categorically identified, is the infrastructure beyond huge communication networks providers. Undoubtedly, the commitment for people of a certain country, in their transformation from citizens of a definite jurisdiction to netizens of a global community seeking advanced training and instruction with interactive educational TV, heavily relies on top management support over complex issues, starting from governmental initiatives and ardent information technology support along vigorous settlements with vendors, private funds, and international conglomerates. What the student body seeks, in national scale, is how to enhance the delivery methods of its learning, from face-to-face methodologies to self-paced learning, and recently, even further to live e-learning. For the first time, however, in-depth skill building, support in a range of practical subjects, animated knowledge acquisition, peer networking, and action-planning have been introduced as managerial educative aspects, along information and entertainment, in the world of broadcasting.
Interaction as a Method of Educating Constructivism
Authors: Gouloudis Stylianos Eyaggelos
Published: November 2019

Constructivism allows the student to build knowledge and learning on his own. Through the discovery, experimentation, and tests, the student tries to consolidate the learning objects. Τhis chapter approaches constructivism through the use of methods used by information technology. An advantage of IT tools is the interaction that turns the teaching into experiential and experimental where the student tries to evaluate and improve his abilities. Methods such as robotics, interactive television, and the use of the internet provide forms of interactive learning based on the methodology of game-based learning, which contribute to constructivism. In this chapter, once the construction and importance in education and especially in IT is presented, the importance of game-based learning and video games is presented. The authors show the role of robotics and the internet in relation to the interaction they offer, and also the role of interactive television in the educational process from the point of view of constructivism.
Encountering New Risks in Educating Children in the Contemporary Society
Authors: Atalay Selin
Published: November 2019

This chapter assesses the phenomenon of cyberbullying as a risk involved in educating children in the contemporary world. While online technologies become a vital part of teenagers' worlds, cyberbullying is becoming a significant problem. In this chapter, cyberbullying is regarded as a social issue that builds on the existing social structures and hierarchies inherent in societies. A sociological perspective is used in analyzing bullying and cyberbullying in relation to power, various forms of capital, and the gender order. The discussion also takes a critical stance and focus on technology as a social construct. Cyberbullying studies conducted in Turkey, which is defined as a ‘lower use, some risk' country for children and prevention strategies against cyberbullying will also be subject to analysis in this chapter. This discussion proposes that a sociological analysis of the underlying mechanisms will be useful in establishing a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of cyberbullying as a social issue.
Probiotics as an Alternative Food Therapy
Authors: Bhandary Thejaswi , M Monisha , Vickraman Ilavarasan , K. A. Paari
Published: November 2019

Antibiotics have been responsible for the evolution of multidrug-resistant microbes. The side-effects of existing drugs and increased treatment costs have led to nutraceuticals gaining popularity. Nutraceuticals have therapeutic applications due to the ability of the probiotics to be viable in encapsulated pills and drinks. Due to their ability to exclude carcinogenic microorganisms by limiting the nutrients available and by competing for receptors nutraceuticals are useful against cancers. Nutraceuticals are useful against diabetes by controlling the genes involved in the insulin-signaling pathway. The future perspective for nutraceuticals includes an increase in production, reduction in manufacturing cost, and enhanced benefits.

Исследуются различные аспекты $AdS_2$-кротовых нор в гравитации Джекива-Тейтельбойма и их голографические приложения. Сначала исследуется пространство $AdS_2$ в глобальных координатах, проходимое в силу присутствия точечной материи, которая нарушает условие энергодоминантности. Вычислена эволюция энтропии зацепленности в такой системе. Затем исследуется конструкция, предложенная Верлинде и др., описывающая состояния, подобные кротовым норам. Такие состояния называются частично зацепленными термальными состояниями. С использованием конформных отображений верхней полуплоскости предложена конструкция, схожая с геометрией таких состояний. Изучаются корреляционные функции в теориях, дуальных таким геометриям. Также обсуждается возможная связь частично зацепленных термальных состояний специального вида с нарушением репличной симметрии.

Определяются скорости и длины уединенных волн огибающей, скорость которых находится в левой полуокрестности минимума фазовой скорости на дисперсионном соотношении для бассейнов небольшой глубины под ледяным покровом. Ледяной покров моделируется упругой ледяной пластиной Кирхгоффа-Лява. Уравнения Эйлера для слоя жидкости (воды) включают дополнительное давление от упругой пластины, свободно плавающей на ее поверхности. Рассматривается случай слабонелинейных волн в пределе больших длин волн и малых амплитуд, когда начальное безразмерное напряжение в ледяном покрове не превосходит одной трети. Эти волны описываются уравнением Кавахары пятого порядка. Полученные результаты затем сравниваются с параметрами, найденными при помощи сильно нелинейного описания. Результаты сравнения оказываются очень хорошими для небольших глубин рассматриваемого бассейна. Это явление объясняется свойствами коэффициента перед низшей нелинейностью в уравнениях, которые описывают уединенные волны огибающей, ответвляющиеся от минимума фазовой скорости на дисперсионной кривой. Обсуждаются возможные приложения полученных результатов к экспериментальным волновым измерениям под ледяным покровом.
Performance Specifications for a Midsize Male Pedestrian Research Dummy
Authors:   Human Biomechanics and Simulations Standards Committee
Published: November 2019

While it is recognized that collisions involve pedestrians of all sizes, this Information Report addresses performance specifications for a midsize adult male research dummy. This approach stems from the greater knowledge of biomechanics and existing dummy technologies for the midsize male relative to other adult sizes and children. While not the initial objective, it is envisioned that additional performance specifications for other sizes of pedestrian research dummies will be developed in the future based on accepted scaling procedures.

The specific requirements for the pedestrian dummy have been based on a collective assessment of pedestrian injury, response, and anthropometry priorities from the experimental, epidemiologic, and computational literature. In general, the objective was to specify performance specifications based on human characteristics and the impact response of post-mortem human subjects rather than to specify the design of a particular physical device.

Based on the perceived applications for a research pedestrian dummy, the primary focus of this document centered on biofidelic whole-body kinematics during a vehicle-pedestrian impact. Specific body regions were prioritized (see A.1.5) based on a combination of pedestrian injury, including both severity and frequency. Based on the priorities established by a review committee, the specifications provided in this document include both mandatory and recommended requirements as indicated by the terms “shall” and “should,” respectively. As pedestrian injury trends and dummy hardware continue to evolve in the future, it is anticipated that this document will expand to include more mandatory requirements in more body regions.

Finally, it should be noted that the test procedures described in this document only apply to the specific tests required to assess pedestrian dummy biofidelity. It is anticipated that pedestrian dummies meeting the performance criteria of this document will be used in a wide variety of tests, requiring specialized test and data procedures.

Abstract. While turbulence is commonly regarded as a flow feature
pertaining to the planetary boundary layer (PBL), intense turbulent mixing
generated by cloud processes also exists above the PBL in the eyewall and
rainbands of a tropical cyclone (TC). The in-cloud turbulence above the PBL
is intimately involved in the development of convective elements in the
eyewall and rainbands and consists of a part of asymmetric eddy forcing for
the evolution of the primary and secondary circulations of a TC. In this
study, we show that the Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF)
model, one of the operational models used for TC prediction, is unable to
generate appropriate sub-grid-scale (SGS) eddy forcing above the PBL due to
a lack of consideration of intense turbulent mixing generated by the eyewall
and rainband clouds. Incorporating an in-cloud turbulent-mixing
parameterization in the vertical turbulent-mixing scheme notably improves
the HWRF model's skills in predicting rapid changes in intensity for several past
major hurricanes. While the analyses show that the SGS eddy forcing above
the PBL is only about one-fifth of the model-resolved eddy forcing, the
simulated TC vortex inner-core structure, secondary overturning circulation,
and the model-resolved eddy forcing exhibit a substantial dependence on the
parameterized SGS eddy processes. The results highlight the importance of
eyewall and rainband SGS eddy forcing to numerical prediction of TC
intensification, including rapid intensification at the current resolution
of operational models.

Abstract. Single-particle mass spectrometry (SPMS) instruments
characterize the composition of individual aerosol particles in real time.
Their fundamental ability to differentiate the externally mixed particle
types that constitute the atmospheric aerosol population enables a unique
perspective into sources and transformation. However, quantitative
measurements by SPMS systems are inherently problematic. We introduce a new
technique that combines collocated measurements of aerosol composition by
SPMS and size-resolved absolute particle concentrations on aircraft
platforms. Quantitative number, surface area, volume, and mass
concentrations are derived for climate-relevant particle types such as
mineral dust, sea salt, and biomass burning smoke. Additionally, relative
ion signals are calibrated to derive mass concentrations of internally mixed
sulfate and organic material that are distributed across multiple particle
types. The NOAA Particle Analysis by Laser Mass Spectrometry (PALMS) instrument
measures size-resolved aerosol chemical composition from aircraft. We
describe the identification and quantification of nine major atmospheric
particle classes, including sulfate–organic–nitrate mixtures, biomass
burning, elemental carbon, sea salt, mineral dust, meteoric material, alkali
salts, heavy fuel oil combustion, and a remainder class. Classes can be
sub-divided as necessary based on chemical heterogeneity, accumulated
secondary material during aging, or other atmospheric processing.
Concentrations are derived for sizes that encompass the accumulation and
coarse size modes. A statistical error analysis indicates that particle
class concentrations can be determined within a few minutes for abundances
above ∼10 ng m−3. Rare particle types require longer
sampling times. We explore the instrumentation requirements and the limitations of the
method for airborne measurements. Reducing the size resolution of the
particle data increases time resolution with only a modest increase in
uncertainty. The principal limiting factor to fast time response
concentration measurements is statistically relevant sampling across the
size range of interest, in particular, sizes D < 0.2 µm for
accumulation-mode studies and D > 2 µm for coarse-mode
analysis. Performance is compared to other airborne and ground-based
composition measurements, and examples of atmospheric mineral dust
concentrations are given. The wealth of information afforded by
composition-resolved size distributions for all major aerosol types
represents a new and powerful tool to characterize atmospheric aerosol
properties in a quantitative fashion.

Abstract. Rainfall simulation and overland-flow experiments enhance understanding of surface hydrology and erosion processes, quantify runoff and erosion rates, and provide valuable data for developing and testing predictive models. We present a unique dataset (1021 experimental plots) of rainfall simulation (1300 plot runs) and overland flow (838 plot runs) experimental plot data paired with measures of vegetation, ground cover, and surface soil physical properties spanning point to hillslope scales. The experimental data were collected at three sloping sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) sites in the Great Basin, USA, each subjected to woodland-encroachment and with conditions representative of intact wooded-shrublands and 1–9 yr following wildfire, prescribed fire, and/or tree cutting and shredding tree-removal treatments. The methodologies applied in data collection and the cross-scale experimental design uniquely provide scale-dependent, separate measures of interrill (rainsplash and sheetflow processes) and concentrated overland-flow runoff and erosion rates along with collective rates for these same processes combined over the patch scale (tens of meters). The dataset provides a valuable source for developing, assessing, and calibrating/validating runoff and erosion models applicable to diverse plant community dynamics with varying vegetation, ground cover, and surface soil conditions. The experimental data advance understanding and quantification of surface hydrologic and erosion processes for the research domain and potentially for other patchy-vegetated rangeland landscapes elsewhere. Lastly, the unique nature of repeated measures spanning numerous treatments and time scales delivers a valuable dataset for examining long-term landscape vegetation, soil, hydrology, and erosion responses to various management actions, land use, and natural disturbances. The dataset is available from the National Agricultural Library at https://data.nal.usda.gov/search/type/dataset (DOI: https://doi.org/10.15482/USDA.ADC/1504518; Pierson et al., 2019).
