Structural Features in the Dow Chemical No. 1 B.L. Garrigan Well, Mississippi County, Arkansas, and their Paleotectonic Implications
Authors: Swolfs Henri S.
Published: July 2019

New structural data in the southwestern extension of the New Madrid seismic zone show that the Upper Cambrian strata of the Blytheville arch recorded at least three episodes of deformation following initial rift formation. The earliest deformation is represented by a phase of uplift and tilting of deepwater, anoxic mudstone truncated by a prograding sandstone that precedes the formation of the Blytheville arch. This episode is followed by progressive deepening and filling of the graben by late Cambrian time. Two sets of carbonate-filled veins identify subsequent deformational episodes. The older set, observed in three cores over a vertical distance of about 1000 m, strikes N35 °W ± 8° and dips 80°SW and probably formed during deformation of regional extent. The younger set is observed only in the top-most core and is typically stratabound, doubly terminated, and nearly vertical. This set probably developed in response to local faulting. The average orientation of the younger set is N41 °E ± 14°.
Shallow Deformation Along the Crittenden County Fault Zone Near the Southeastern Boundary of the Reelfoot Rift, Northeast Arkansas
Authors: Luzietti E. A. , Kanter L. R. , Schweig E. S. , Shedlock K. M. , VanArsdale R. B.
Published: July 2019

The Crittenden County fault zone (CCFZ) is located near the southeast boundary of the Reelfoot rift in northeastern Arkansas. The southeastern boundary of the rift has been characterized as an 8-km-wide zone of down-to-the-northwest displacement. The CCFZ, however, shows significant down-to-the-southeast reverse faulting of Paleozoic and Cretaceous rocks and flexure and thinning within the Tertiary sedimentary section.

We discuss four of nine Mini-Sosie seismic reflection profiles, each 1 to 2 km long, acquired over the surface projection of the CCFZ and Reelfoot rift boundary. One second of two-way traveltime data was recorded, which corresponds to a maximum depth of approximately 1.2 km. Sedimentary layers between 50 and 800 m are well imaged; deeper strata are evident but not well imaged.

Well data at one site on the CCFZ indicate approximately 63 and 82 m of vertical displacement of Cretaceous and Paleozoic rocks, respectively. Proprietary seismic-reflection data show reverse displacement of these rock units, indicating compressional tectonics. From the Mini-Sosie profiles, we estimate structural relief across the CCFZ at the Paleocene (Fort Pillow Sand) level to range between 14 and 70 m. The overlying middle-to-late Eocene section shows a similar or slightly smaller amount of thinning, indicating that much of the movement on the CCFZ dates mid-to-late Eocene. Displacement, flexure, and thinning in the geologic section increases as the CCFZ converges with the Reelfoot rift boundary, in the southwest part of the area studied. Surface expression of the CCFZ has not been identified. Reflections from the Quaternary-Eocene unconformity, however, show warping, dip, or interruptions in places over the CCFZ, suggesting that the CCFZ may have experienced Quaternary or Holocene movement as well.
Flat Dilatometer (DMT), Cone Penetrometer (CPT) and Seismic Cone (SCPT) Evaluation of Select New Madrid Liquefaction Sites
Authors: Hryciw Roman D.
Published: July 2019

Cone Penetration (CPT), Flat Dilatometer (DMT) and Seismic Shear Wave Velocity tests were conducted in four regions of the New Madrid seismic zone. Test results are compared to existing liquefaction criteria and to surface evidence of liquefaction (sandblows) during the 1811–1812 events. In general, all three tests confirm the presence of liquefaction-prone strata at locations with evidence of liquefaction. A “sand blow index” (SBI), which accounts for both local and regional sand blow intensity, correlates reasonably well against the minimum values of DMT horizontal stress index, the normalized CPT tip resistance, and the normalized shear wave velocity at each test location. An upperstratum clay also appears to play a significant role in inhibiting sand blow formation. Its thickness also correlates well with the SBI.
Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Mapping of the Mississippi Embayment
Authors: Toro G. R. , Silva W. J. , McGuire R. K. , Herrmann R. B.
Published: July 2019

Seismic hazard is calculated for a grid of sites on the Mississippi embayment and adjacent areas. The seismic zonations, seismicity parameters, and maximum magnitudes for these calculations were synthesized from the EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) and LLNL (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) interpretations, augmented by information from recent relevant studies. Attenuation functions developed for this study include the effects of source size and crustal structure. The soil amplification factors include the effects of surficial geology, soil-column thickness, and soil nonlinearity.

Seismic hazard maps, including the effect of site conditions, are presented for spectral accelerations at 1 and 10 Hz and for peak acceleration, for average return periods of 100, 500, and 1000 years.

These maps show significantly lower ground-motion amplitudes than those reported by Algermissen et al. (1991). Because of these large differences, it is suggested that code- development decisions be made after consideration of both studies.
Seismotectonic and Related Maps of the Central Mississippi Valley and Environs
Authors: Wheeler Russell L. , Rhea Susan , Tarr Arthur C.
Published: July 2019

A planned map folio will show geological and geophysical information and societal features at risk in nested map areas centered on the New Madrid seismic zone. We are using digital data and the ARC/INFO* geographic information system (GIS) to aid analysis, speed distribution of data and maps to others, and let us make special-purpose maps. The smallest-scale, largest-area map is already in draft form, and shows mainly large urban areas and dominant lifelines. Most future maps will show geologic and geophysical information needed to determine crustal structure, understand the causes and characteristics of seismicity, and assess the hazard from shaking, liquefaction, strong-motion amplification, and ground failure.
Site Response in Providence, Rhode Island: Constraints from Ambient Noise Measurements
Authors: Fischer K. M. , Hough S. E.
Published: July 2019

We conducted an ambient noise survey to assess the potential for seismic site response in Providence, Rhode Island. Providence is built on bedrock valleys that are partially filled with unconsolidated Holocene sediments. Because similar valley structures exist in other heavily populated coastal and river cities of the northeastern United States, the results of this study are relevant to seismic hazards throughout the region. At sites located in the river valleys beneath downtown Providence, we found peaks in ambient noise frequency spectra that suggest amplification of energy in the range of 2–3 Hz. This spectral peak occurs in the spectra from sediment sites and in spectral ratios that reference sediment to hardrock stations. We used geotechnical borehole records to constrain valley structure and seismic refraction data to determine bedrock velocity, and we calculated the theoretical response to ground motion for one-dimensional models that approximate basin structure. The modeling shows that the 2–3 Hz ambient noise peak can be interpreted as the fundamental resonance frequency of low-impedance surface sediment layers.
Earthquakes along the Northwestern Boundary of the Labrador Sea
Authors: Bent Allison L. , Hasegawa Henry S.
Published: July 2019

As in much of northeastern Canada, earthquakes in the Labrador Sea occur predominantly along the passive margin. Geologically and geophysically, this region is complex and consists of an extinct spreading ridge and transform faults, both oceanic and continental crust, a possible hot spot trace, and magnetic and gravity anomalies. We have studied five recent earthquakes in the magnitude 4.5 to 5.5 range to determine their source properties and to better understand how they fit into the seismotectonic framework of the region. A combination of body and surface wave analysis techniques were used to determine the source parameters. LS69, LS89 and PB89 were well recorded teleseismically, and thus their source properties are better constrained than those for LS86 and LS87, for which only a few teleseismic records were available and whose source parameters were determined more from first motions than by modeling. The two events (LS69, LS89) that occurred near the intersection of the extinct spreading ridge (and associated transform) and Mesozoic rifted margin are noteworthy in that the former is of the thrust-fault and the latter of the normal-fault type. Local structure and possibly post-glacial rebound could be the causative factors for the occurrence of normal and thrust faulting in the same area. The two events (LS86, LS87) that occurred along the continent ocean transition zone have fairly similar fault-plane solutions, and are both thrust-faulting events. The fifth event (PB89), which occurred in Payne Bay, is also a thrust-faulting event and could be associated with the Ungava Transform fault to the northeast, or the Cape Smith fold belt to the northwest. The focal depths of all five events lie between 10 and 15 km, and may be dominated by thermal effects. The observation that the deviatoric compression axis of all five earthquakes lies in the northwest (or equivalently in the southeast) quadrant is consistent with recent modeling efforts of the tectonic stress field in this region.
The Norris Lake Earthquake Swarm of June Through September, 1993; Preliminary Findings
Authors: Long L.T. , Kocaoglu A. , Hawman R. , Gore P.J.W.
Published: July 2019

During the summer of 1993, the residents in the Norris Lake community, Lithonia, Georgia, were bothered by an incessant swarm of earthquakes. The largest, a magnitude 2.7 on September 23, showed a normal aftershock decay and occurred after the main swarm. Over 10,000 earthquakes have been detected, of which perhaps 500 were felt. The earthquakes began June 8, 1993, with a 5-day swarm. The residents, accustomed to quarry explosions, suspected the quarries of irregular activities. To locate the source of the events, a visual recorder and a digital event recorder were placed in the epicentral area. Ten to 20 events were detected per day for the next three weeks. The swarm then escalated to a peak of over 100 per day by August 15, 1993. Activity following the peak died down to about 10 events per day. The magnitude 2.7 event of September 23 was followed by a normal aftershock sequence. The larger events were felt with intensity V within 2 km of their epicenter, and noticed (intensity II) to a distance of 15 km. Some incidents of cracked wallboard and foundations have been reported, but no significant damage has been documented. Preliminary locations, based on data from digital event recorders, suggest an average depth of 1.0 km. The hypocenters are in the Lithonia gneiss, a massive migmatite resistant to weathering and used locally as a building stone. The epicenters are 1 to 2 km south-southwest of the Norris Lake Community. The cause of the seismicity is not yet known. The earthquakes are characteristic of reservoir-induced earthquakes; however, Norris Lake is a small (96 acres), 2 to 5m deep recreational lake which has existed since the 1950s.
Lipid spectrum and function of kidneys before and after liver transplantation
Authors: Kosmacheva E. D. , Babich A. E.
Published: July 2019

Background. In patients after liver transplantation cardiovascular complications is the third main reason of death afer allograf failure and infections. The most important factors in the development of cardiovascular diseases are dyslipidemia and impaired renal function.The aimof the study was to investigate the lipid spectrum and renal function in liver recipients in real clinical practice and the correspondence of their correction to current clinical recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of dyslipidemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods.A retrospective analysis of lipid spectrum and renal function in patients who underwent OLT in Research Institute – Regional Clinical Hospital №1, Krasnodar was performed. The level of creatinine, GFR and lipid spectrum was studied before and 36 months after liver transplantation. The GFR was calculated using the formula CKD‑EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration). Statistical analysis of the study results was made using the program Statistica 10.Results.Liver recipients have a significantly higher total cholesterol by 31.0% (p<0.01) in comparison with the baseline before surgery. Total cholesterol was increased in 13.7% (p<0.01), triglycerides in 12.3% (p<0.01) before transplantation. Tree years after transplantation, the increasion in cholesterol was registered in 42.6% (p<0.01) and triglycerides in 37.9% (p <0.01), respectively. 3 years after transplantation reduction of GFR was observed in comparison with the baseline by 22.6% (p=0.00006). Verification of chronic kidney disease and statin administration in patients were carried out in some cases. The levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides had a reliable inverse correlation with GFR (r = ‑0.42; p<0.01 and r = ‑0.36; p<0.05).Conclusions. In the long‑term postoperative period there was an impaired lipid metabolism and decreased level of GFR. Dyslipidemia was closely related to the progression of renal dysfunction in liver recipients, an inverse correlation was established between the glomerular filtration rate and the increasion in cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It is necessary to increase the attention of physicians with regard to timely correction of lipid metabolism disorders and detection of initial manifestations of renal dysfunction.

Published: July 2019

During exercise an increase in oxygen delivery to working muscles is achieved through well‑coordinated interaction of many organs and systems: the heart, lungs, blood vessels, skeletal muscles, and the autonomic nervous system. In heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, all mechanisms involved in the normal exercise tolerance are impaired. In the first part of this review, the impairments of the left heart chambers are considered ‑ left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, the weakening of the contractile and chronotropic reserves, left atrium dysfunction; the possible ways of their medical correction are also presented.

Published: July 2019

Background: Proof of a circadian rhythm in the occurrence of cerebral infarction and other types of stroke might provide clues to factors which immediately precipitate these events, which in turn might lead to more rational treatments. The aims of the current study were to find out the circadian variation of stroke onset and to determine the risk factors related to circadian variation.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary hospital of Bangladesh from July to December 2014 among 67 diagnosed cases of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke of first attack. Times of onset of stroke and wake-sleep state were recorded.Results: The mean age of the study subjects was 62.1 years, 64.2% were male. Among them, 59.7% had an ischemic stroke and 40.3% had a hemorrhagic stroke. The occurrence of stroke was most common during 6 am to 12 pm (47.8%), followed by 12 am to 6 am (25.4%), 12 pm to 6 pm (17.9%), and 6 pm to 12 am (9.0%). Circadian variation of stroke was homogenous and statistically insignificant in association with age group when categorized as below 65 years and 65 years or above years, sex, smoking habit, and presence or absence of diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, and dyslipidemia. But hypertension and ischemic heart disease (IHD) were significantly associated with circadian variation of stroke. The occurrence of ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke was most common from 6 am to 12 pm (47.5% and 48.1%) respectively. When considered separately, significant circadian variation noted for ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic strokes were also noted.Conclusions: The study contributes further evidence for the circadian variation in the occurrence of ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. Attempts to prevent their occurrence must take into account this circadian variation.

Authors: Mohanty Sushreesmita , Mohanty Ipsita
Published: July 2019

Background: The progress of labour can be graphically represented using the WHO partogragh, which helps in early detection and prevention of complication of labour, thus resulting in a better feto-maternal outcome especially in high risk cases.Methods: The study was undertaken at Hitech Medical College and Hospital, Bhubaneswar from March 2017 to February 2019 on 200 high risk patients. The progress of labour was plotted and assessed on Modified WHO partograph.Results: Majority of the cases were referred cases. Augmentation of labour was carried out in 56 cases. The mean duration of labour in the first stage was 5.4 hours and 4.1 hours in primi and multigravidas, whereas that of the second stage of labour are 37.5 minutes and 26.3 minutes respectively. 51 cases had prolonged labour and 15 cases had arrest of labour in the second stage. Maximum number of cases underwent LSCS due to abnormal labour progression. 8.7% of the cases had PPH and 2.3% had puerperal sepsis. Neonatal asphyxia was seen in 13.6% cases and 2.8% had early neonatal death.Conclusion: The results conclude that the WHO modified partograph is an inexpensive useful tool in monitoring the progress of labour and reducing foeto maternal morbidity in high risk groups.

Why do Skilled People Migrate to Cities? A Spatial Econometric Analysis for Understanding the Impact of the Social Environment on the Attraction of Human Capital to Cities in Turkey
Authors: Gonul Dilcu , Erkut Gulden
Published: July 2019

The main focus of this study is on understanding the importance of social dynamics of cities for attracting human capital to urban regions. The principal research question of the article is “if there is a spatial dependency on neighbouring provinces’ social environmental qualities in human capital at­traction for Turkey.” It is believed that developmental disparities among regions can be overcome with a balanced distribution of human capital. In this article, first the concept and importance of human capital and its evolution throughout economic history are explained in order to emphasize the relationship between development and human capital for urban regions. The literature review consists of migration models developed and used in previous studies and recent literature that together consider human capital and its flow with spatial analysis. A review of migration models helps structure the quantitative models’ building blocks, or the concepts to be quantified. Literature that discusses human capital and spatial analysis, at the same time, guides the study in implementing the most appropriate analysis technique. The literature discussed in the paper is focused on human capital migration and urban attractiveness. Its similarity with the current study work is the focus on the relationship between urban environment components and human capital. However, the cited studies lack the “spatial/relational” approach to urban regions which means that the effects of developments in settlements neighbouring the region were ignored. The contribution which we intend to make with the current study is to adapt the spatial econometric analysis to the problem of human capital attraction. Literature review is followed by data used in the empirical part of the study, and brief information on spatial econometric analysis. Next, findings of the empirical spatial econometric analysis of Turkey’s 81 urban regions are provided. Overall, the analysis indicated that undergraduate and post-graduate migrants care about the social prosperity of the neighbouring environment of destination province. The last part concludes with an interpretation of empirical study findings and discusses relevant urban and regional policy instruments.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF HYBRID SOLAR-WIND RO-MSF DESALINATION SYSTEM
Authors: Heidary Bahareh , Tavakoli Teymour , Ghobadian Barat , Roshandel Ramin
Published: July 2019

Introduction: Water, energy, and the environment are three important elements of sustainable development. Production of potable water using desalination technologies powered by renewable energy systems could help solve water scarcity in remote areas with shortages of water or conventional energy sources, or in large cities with air pollution. Hybridization of solar and wind could increase the sustainability and availability of renewable energy sources and reduce energy costs. Additionally, hybridization of reverse osmosis (RO) and MSF could increase efficiency and desalinated water quality and decrease desalinated water cost. Materials and Methods: The research method in this paper is based on modeling, computer simulation, and optimization with MATLAB software, and manufacturing and evaluating the plant at the Tarbiat Modares University Renewable Energy Laboratory. Results: The process of manufacturing the MSF system, solar panel structure, and wind turbine was explained and modeling and optimization results were presented. Testing results of the plant were mentioned, as were the produced power of wind turbine simulated and plant performance evaluated under the environmental conditions of the Tehran region. The rate of fresh water production under changing feed water salinity was evaluated and the real costs of fresh water produced ($/m3) were estimated. At the end of this section, model results and test results were compared. Conclusion: Hybridization of RO and MSF systems with wind and solar energy resources led to increased system reliability and flexibility and higher produced drinking water quality. The desalinated water cost was 1.35 $/m3 in theory and 1.5 $/m3 for actual conditions. Hybridization of wind, solar, RO, and MSF showed proved the best choices to minimize water cost compared to fossil fuel RO or MSF, wind RO, wind MSF, solar RO, solar MSF, or fossil fuel RO-MSF. Hybridization of RO and MSF would result in better economics and operation characteristics than those corresponding to MSF. Water cost can be reduced by 23 to 26% of that of a sole MSF process and the amount of desalinated water produced by the hybrid RO-MSF system is much greater than that of MSF. A comparison of theory outputs and experimental test results showed very good agreement between measured and model data. The test results of the manufactured hybrid solar-wind RO-MSF justified theory results.

Algumas considerações semântico-pragmáticas sobre “capaz”
Authors: Teixeira Lovania Roehrig , Gritti Letícia Lemos , Koslinski Eliza
Published: July 2019

Neste artigo analisamos o item ‘capaz’ sob um viés semântico-pragmático, sugerindo que ele pode desempenhar três funções diferentes na gramática do Português Brasileiro (PB), tais como: marcador conversacional, negação e modal. Especificamente, aqui, focamos no comportamento modal de ‘capaz’, utilizando como bases teóricas a Semântica de Mundos Possíveis (KRATZER, 1981, 1991, 2012) e as abordagens para os modais do PB de Pires de Oliveira; Scarduelli (2008) e Pessotto (2011a, 2011b, 2015). Verificamos que o item tem força modal de possibilidade e veicula leituras: epistêmica, doxástica, epistêmico-tácita e físico-intelectual. Desse modo, ‘capaz’ é um legítimo modal do PB e merece figurar no rol dos modais das línguas naturais.
Para além do signo “saussuriano”
Authors: Lery-Lachaume Marie-Lou Thérèsa Mariette
Published: July 2019

Trata-se de examinar em que medida a descoberta de um “outro Saussure” permite também reatualizar a recepção/circulação dos conceitos fundamentais da linguística moderna, focando-se na noção flutuante e enigmática de signo de Jacques Lacan no início dos anos 1970. Enquanto Lacan, nesse período, parece romper tanto com os paradigmas tradicionais da linguística estruturalista, quanto com o conceito (pós-)saussuriano de signo, a hipótese proposta nesse trabalho é que a psicanálise nunca se encontrou tão íntima da conceituação (proto-)saussuriana do signo. Entre rabiscos, riscas e risco teórico, propõe-se ler o Lacan da ‘‘Linguisteria’’ junto com o Saussure dos Manuscritos. Deste modo, e para além dos comentários já realizados sobre a retomada-subversão lacaniana da dupla significante/significado, tenta-se destacar uma noção de signo dividida e viva, resistente aos binarismos congelados por uma leitura do Curso de Linguística Geral ignorante da sua gênese inquieta.

Published: July 2019

The lack of understanding on land waqf creates many issues related to waqf itself, i.e. offers endowed land as deb’ts collateral. In Article 40 alphabeth (a) Law Number 41 Year 2004 on Waqf, there is prohibition to include waqf properties as collateral. Waqf properties’ status change that inchorent with Law Number 41 Year 2004 on Waqf, one of it is including land waqf as debt’s collateral will cause unwanted consequence on the collateral agreement itself. In fact, there are still violations on Article 40 alphabeth (a) Law Number 41 Year 2004 on Waqf. These situations are caused by minimum awareness on management of waqf properties from nadzir, heirs and bank as the creditor towards implementation of waqf properties’ status change. Therefore, consequence of waqf properties’ status change that violates Article 40 alphabeth (a) Law Number 41 Year 2004 on Waqf will not immediately null and void; however, debt’s repayment still needs to be fulfilled by debtor corresponds with Article 1131 BW. It required efforts to minimize issues on waqf through socialization of waqf towards nadzir, heirs, bank as creditor and wide community, especially waqf properties’ status change so there will not be any issues on implementation and management of waqf properties in the future.
