Parametric Study of Sheet Pile Wall using ABAQUS
Authors: Muni Taku , Devi Dipika , Baishya Sukumar
Published: January 2021

In the present study two-dimensional finite element analysis has been carried out on cantilever sheet pile wall using ABAQUS/Standard software to study the effect of different friction angles and its related parameters such as dilation angle, the interfacial friction coefficient between soil-wall on earth pressure distribution, and wall deformation. From the results obtained, it is found that there is a significant decrease in wall deformation with an increase in the angle of internal friction and its related parameters. The earth pressure results obtained from the finite element analysis shared a unique relationship with that of a conventional method. Both the results showed similar linear behavior up to a certain percentage of wall height and then changed drastically in lower portions of the wall. This trend of behavior is seen in both active as well as in passive earth pressure distribution for all the frictional angle. Hence, after comparing the differences that exist in the results for both methods, from the analysis a new relationship between the earth pressure coefficients from a conventional method and the finite element method has been developed for both active and passive earth pressure on either side of the sheet pile wall. This relationship so derived can be used to compute more reasonable earth pressure distributions for a sheet pile wall without carrying out a numerical analysis with a minimal time of computation. And also the earth pressure coefficient calculated from this governing equation can serve as a quick reference for any decision regarding the design of the sheet pile wall. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091638 Full Text: PDF
Performance Comparison of High Strength Reinforced Concrete Circular and Square Columns Subjected to Flexural Controlled Cyclic Loading
Authors: Ahmed Ali , Mohammed Ahmed Mohammed Youssef , Maekawa Koichi
Published: January 2021

In existing design practices selection of circular or square column shape mostly depends upon architectural needs rather than structural behavior. The behavior of equivalent area (circular and square), high strength reinforced concrete columns is reported to be same under monotonic loading conditions but their behavior under fatigue loading is not well-established. This paper presents the comparison of high strength reinforced concrete circular and square equivalent area columns’ performance (load-deflection behavior) under fatigue loading. Columns were casted in four configurations: square and circular shapes and with and without shear stirrups. Experimental results showed that in case of columns without shear stirrups, the square column resisted 38% more loading cycles as compared to circular column while the maximum deflection was 78% more than the circular column. Similarly, in case of columns with shear stirrups, square shaped column resisted 55% more loading cycles with only 5% more maximum deflections as compared to circular column. The results show that the square columns might be considered more ductile as compared to circular columns under the application of cyclic loading conditions like wind forces or seismic forces. Therefore, it might be concluded that square columns should be recommended for highly seismic regions as compared to circular columns with equivalent area. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091639 Full Text: PDF

Published: January 2021

In1916, Srinivasa Ramanujan defined the Mock Theta functions in his lost notebook and unpublished papers. We prove the Mock Theta Conjectures with the help of Dyson’s rank and S. Ramanujan’s Mock Theta functions. These functions were quoted in Ramanujan’s lost notebook and unpublished papers. In1916, Ramanujan stated the theta series in x like A(x), B(x), C(x), D(x). We discuss the Ramanujan’s functions with the help of Dyson’s rank symbols. These functions are useful to prove the Mock Theta Conjectures. Now first Mock Theta Conjecture is “The number of partitions of 5n with rank congruent to 1 modulo 5 equals the number of partitions of 5n with rank congruent to 0 modulo 5 plus the number of partitions of n with unique smallest part and all other parts   the double of the smallest part”, and Second Mock Theta Conjecture is “The double of the number of partitions of   with rank congruent to 2 modulo 5 equals the sum of the number of partitions of   with rank congruent to 0 and congruent to1 modulo 5, and the sum of one and the number of partitions of n with unique smallest part and all other parts  one plus the double of the smallest part”. This paper shows how to prove the Theorem 1.3 with the help of Dyson’s rank symbols N(0,5,5n+1), N(2,5, 5n+1) and shows how to prove the Theorem 1.4 with the help of Ramanujan’s theta series and Dyson’s rank symbols N(1,5, 5n+2), N(2,5, 5n+2) respectively.

Polychlorinated substances, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, heavy metals and pesticides are among the priority even at low concentrations. The problem, however, is that such low concentrations are impossible to measure using most available methods. This researchfocused on the determination of selected priority substances – heavy metals, namely lead and cadmium, in which the determination ofPb and Cd in wastewater by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) was preceded by water sample pre-treatment.The paper deals with the influence of the pre-treatment on the resulting measured values. Two processes were selected as pre-treatmentprocesses. The first pre-treatment procedure was a simple filtration using a filter paper for moderate filtration. As the second procedure, we applied decomposition of the sample by nitric acid in the open system. The pre-treated wastewater samples were subsequentlyexamined using ICP-MS. Based on the obtained results, we can conclude that decomposition of the sample by nitric acid in the opensystem is a more suitable pre-treatment method for water samples

Published: January 2021

This paper empirically investigates the various approaches to model time-varying systematic risk in Indonesia and Thailand by using time-series data from 2009 to 2017. Indonesia and Thailand were used as examples because of their growing economics since the turn of 20th century. As recent empirical studies have been conducted on stock markets in developed countries, there is an increasing need for testing in emerging markets, which have grown and become increasingly popular with international investors, such as Indonesia and Thailand. This study examines dynamic beta models using GARCH (1,1), EGARCH, TARCH, Schwert-Seguin, and the Kalman-Filter group to empirically find the most optimal time-varying beta model. This study uses the Fama-French Five Factors asset pricing model to include other factors that might influences value of systematic risk for each portfolio in both countries. This model can capture five factors that can affect returns, namely market factors (CAPM), size, book to market equity, profitability, and investment. By incorporating volatility and state space estimation, this study compares all tested models based on information criteria (AIC, SIC, and HIC). The results of this research proves that GARCH (1,1) in Indonesia and TARCH in Thailand outperforms other models in capturing the systematic risk. This study will be useful for future economic studies in Indonesia, Thailand and their neighboring countries.

The Indonesia government conducts several fiscal strategies to solve Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN)’s deficit due to corona pandemic by relaxation of APBN’s deficit policy, using surplus balance, upsizing loan and bond in domestic and valas currency. Upsizing or issuance a new Indonesian bon called SUN, would increase cost of rate is paid by government and its maturity that impacted to yield curve and risk of SUN. It has inspired this research to (1) investigate the determinant of yield curve due to shocks that occur in Indonesian macroeconomic during the pandemic (2) the impact of the pandemic on SUN’s risk and (3) the forecast of the yield curve in SUN after the pandemic using the VAR / VECM method. The reasearch used secondary data of bond yield from Indonesian Stock Market and imposed the effect of such as inflation, BI Rate, Kurs and foreign exchange that is taken from several sources such as BPS, Central Bank of Indonesia and Bloomberg during 2015 January until 2020 May. This research proves that the five main macroeconomic indicators have an influence in the short and long term on the yield curve.  YIELD, GDP and BIR variables have a significant negative effect in the short term on the yield curve, whereas CPI, KURS and CD have no significant effect. The ECT’s coefficient shows the speed of adjustment towards the long-term balance and the BI Rate adjustment is faster than other variables with an ECT coefficient of 0,33. The estimation results show that the average R-squared is above 55 percent with the highest value of 79,35 percent, this indicates that the equation was formed because the research variables amounted to the R-squared results.

Published: January 2021

Ranitidine is a widely used drug in Europe and its intake is usually well tolerated. Hypersensitivity reactions due to ranitidine are uncommon. The immediate mild reactions type are the most prevalent. In some special cases a delayed type reaction such as contact dermatitis or severe reactions with systemic involvement have been reported. In the present paper, a case report of a 78-year old patient who experienced a maculopapular eruption after 7 days of oral treatment with ranitidine is described. Patch tests were performed twice with ranitidine with positive results confirming the diagnosis. In order to discard a double sensitization and a possible cross-reactivity phenomenon, patch test was performed once with famotidine, with a negative result. This is the first maculopapular exanthema reported as type IV hypersensitivity reaction to ranitidine confirmed by patch testing. Moreover, there are only two reported cases showing a double sensitization to ranitidine and to other H2-receptor antagonists by patch testing after a delayed reaction due to ranitidine, the other being H2-receptor antagonists involving cimetidine and nizatidine, not famotidine.

The effect of starch on density, caloric value and specific fuel consumption were assessed in this research. Composite sawdust briquettes were produced from the mixture of sawdust and starch within four treatments in a percentage ratio of 80:20 for treatment A, 70:30 for treatment B, 60:40 for treatment C and 50:50 for treatment D. Densification of the mixtures was achieved using a manually operating briquetting machine and starch gel was used as a binding agent. The performance of briquette produced was examined under controlled cooking test. Energy content was determined using oxygen bomb calorimeter. The results obtained from density according to treatments A, B, C and D respectively were 0.0002067kg/cm3,0.0002433kg/cm3, 0.00025kg/cm3. Treatment D has the highest density of 0.00029kg /cm3. The caloric value was determined from the heat of combustion with treatment B having the highest energy content of 7.37cal/g, C=6.159cal/g, A=6.055calg, and D=4.573cal/g. Specific fuel consumption was determined during controlled cooking test and the values for the respective treatments were A=0.89g, B=0.47g, C=0.64g, D=0.86g, and fire wood=0.89g. Time taken to cook 200g of rice was obtained using wrist watch and the values were: A=50min, B=44min, C=48min, D=47min, and firewood had the highest value of 53min. Results showed that, increase in the quantity of starch led to increase in density of composites.

Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) is a specie of Plasmodium parasite responsible for the pathogenicity of malaria, a disease with several complications reported as the leading cause of over 1 million deaths worldwide. In this study, the effects of malaria on the kidney (Renal) histo-architecture was studied ex-vivo in albino mice rats. Twenty one (21) albino mice rats of between 30 – 35g weights were procured, acclimatized for two weeks in the animal unit of the Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Edo State. They were then grouped into three (3) of seven (7) mice each, following which group I received standard rat diet and water ad libitum (control). Using the 2ml syringe, Groups II and III were inoculated with 0.2 ml of the malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei each intra-peritoneally. While group II mice were left untreated for 7 days, group III (infested) mice were administered with 5.7 mg/kg body weight of Coartem (an anti-malaria), morning and evening for 1 week. Following period of administration of substances, kidneys were harvested, rid of adherent tissues, and subjected through histological scrutiny to ascertain the changes in renal histo-morphology across groups. For each group, body weight changes were also noted within test duration and compared between groups with the one way analysis of variance. Where differences exist, the tukey (Post Hoc) test was used to ascertain the cause of the differences in body weight due to P. berghei. From the result, a statistically significant decrease (p > 0.05) in body weight was observed in P. berghei infested mice (Groups II and II) compared with control (group I). Body weight however recovered in Group III mice treated with coartem, proving to have increased significantly (p < 0.05) compared to control group. Renal histo-architectural changes revealed glomerulosclerosis, interstitial oedema and congested vessels in group II mice compared to control. We recommend similar study in other tissues other than the kidney for reference purposes

The paper examined the prospects and challenges of cashew production in Nigeria. Qualitative and quantitative data which were used to identify these challenges and prospects were retrieved from research findings, literatures, journals and reports. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis was used to highlight the strengths and weaknesses inherent in the internal environment of the cashew sector as well as the opportunities and threats from the external environment of the cashew sector. The paper takes a step further by employing Threats Opportunities Weaknesses and Strengths (TOWS) analysis matrix to come up with models that can be employed to improve the cashew sector in Nigeria. Some of the prospects identified include the potential employment creation, increasing cultivation area and evidenced value addition. While some of the challenges identified include poor pricing of cashew nuts, lack of proper policy intervention and underutilization of cashew apple. Government is advised to set up a cashew marketing board and provide proper policy intervention to improve prices, production levels and provide employment opportunities.

Выявлено влияние природы ацильного (пропионил- и бензоил-) фрагмента и заместителя при C4 пиперидинового цикла на активность ряда производных алкинилпиперидина. Наличие алкильного (гексил) радикала при тройной связи в заместителе при C4 пиперидинового цикла на модели инфильтрационной анестезии положительно отразилось на показателе «индекс анестезии» и продолжительности как полной, так и общей анестезии по сравнению с лидокаином, новокаином и тримекаином, взятыми в качестве препаратов сравнения. Обнаружено, что самым активным анестетиком среди исследуемых соединений является сложный эфир 4-(октин-1-ил)пиперидола-1 пропионовой кислоты. Модификация по тройной связи (исчерпывающее гидрирование и гидратация) приводит к снижению продолжительности анестезии, причем в паре пропионат и бензоат активность бензоата превышала таковую пропионата.

Представлены результаты изучения растворимости дарунавира (Д) и дарунавира этанолата (ДЭ) при физиологических значениях рН и температуре в растворах фармацевтически приемлемых вспомогательных веществ полимерной природы с целью обоснования рецептуры лекарственной формы. Определено, что обе субстанции при 37 °С лучше растворяются в хлористоводородной кислоте с рН 1,2. Показано, что ПВП 90 нецелесообразно использовать в рецептурах пероральных лекарственных форм из-за отрицательного влияния на растворимость субстанций. Влияние Soluplus® на растворимость Д и ДЭ осложняется многофакторностью и разнополярностью результатов. ПВП 12-30, ГПМЦ 606, Kollidon® VA 64 ГПЦ положительно влияют на растворимость субстанций, наилучшие результаты показаны в растворах Eudragit® E PO.
