One-predicate interrogative conditional constructions in Catalan (in comparison with Spanish and French)
Authors: Repnina Tatiana V.
Published: November 2019

The article deals with mononuclear interrogative conditional constructions in Catalan (in comparison with Spanish and French), a topic addressed for the first time in a separate study. The tense and voice uses in these constructions, their transformations into two-predicate constructions, and their meanings are examined in detail. Conclusions about the differences in tense use are made, constructions with positive and negative meanings are analyzed.
The following conclusions are made:
1. One-predicate conditional constructions are characteristic of interrogative, but not of declarative utterances.
2. One-predicate conditional constructions can be split into those that elide the main clause and those that do not. Elliptical constructions imply the meaning of consequence, while non-elliptical constructions do not.
3. One-predicate interrogative conditional constructions normally begin with a special marker, a conjunction combination – i si in Catalan, y si in Spanish, and et si in French.
4. Interrogative conditional constructions with main clause ellipsis can express both real and unreal condition in the present, past or future by means of tenses and moods. The use of tenses and moods in constructions with main clause ellipsis in the three targeted languages mostly coincide. The differences can be summed up as follows. In Catalan and Spanish, the imperfect of the conjunctive generally corresponds to the imperfect of the indicative in French. In Catalan and Spanish, the pluperfect of the conjunctive is opposed to the pluperfect of the indicative in French. The same difference is also true of non-interrogative conditional constructions.
5. In Catalan and Spanish, non-elliptical interrogative conditional constructions use imperfect subjunctives as opposed to French where imperfect indicatives occur instead.
6. Elliptical one-predicate interrogative conditional constructions address events whose realization or consequences are not obvious to the speaker, or low-probability events. Such constructions mostly express negative meaning. Non-elliptical one-predicate interrogative conditional constructions express request, suggestion, or advice.
Augmentativity as a marked affixal speech parts category in Tundra Yukaghir
Authors: Kurilova Samona N.
Published: November 2019

Augmentativity as one of the components of the quantity category produces a subjective and evaluative meaning of big size or an extensively expressed feature. The main way of expressing augmentativity in Tundra Yukaghir is an augmentative affix -tege and its variant -tke. The augmentative meaning of the affix can be realized with the help of nouns, verbs, modal particles and interjective-modal words. The augmentatives are classified by their meaning and belonging of their stem to the parts of speech. The specificity of the marker -tege и -tke is in the fact of using one of them depending on a final sound of the root or stem.
An algorithm of deep analysis for Chinese text in the framework of predicational conception of language
Authors: Simatova Sofya A.
Published: November 2019

The paper presents an adaptation of the model of deep text analysis elaborated earlier by Yu. V. Popov and T. P. Tregubovich for German. The development of the model for Chinese is based on principles of the general linguistic predicational conception of V.A. Kurdyumov, which nowadays is the only one taking into account the specificity of isolating languages. The advantage of the model, presented in the article, consists in revealing the mechanism of Chinese text production and presenting the functioning of cohesion phenomenon not only in the micro-, but also in the macrostructure of text. The algorithm of analysis, proposed in the article, has a certain degree of universality, and, with some modifications, it can be implemented in text analysis of different types of languages. It is concluded that with additional elucidations for several steps of the algorithm it is possible to use the proposed model of deep text analysis both for monologic and dialogic texts.
Chronic Anthracycline-related Myocarditis Presenting as Diffuse Myocardial Calcification
Authors: Pejic Marijan , Shifman Monica , Rose Trevor , Jeong Daniel
Published: November 2019

In the setting of cardio-oncology, evaluation for myocarditis is a growing indication for cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Treatment-related side effects of cancer therapies comprise the majority of myocarditis cases in cardio-oncology, and these are often secondary to anthracyclines and even the newer class of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Cardiotoxicity from cancer therapy represents an increasingly recognized etiology of myocarditis and when detected, warrants prompt management changes. The conventional CMR evaluation for myocarditis includes modules for the left ventricular structure and function, early gadolinium enhancement, and late gadolinium enhancement. Newer CMR sequences including native T1 mapping and extracellular volume fraction offer improvement in diagnostic accuracy from conventional CMR methods. We present a case of subacute/ chronic myocarditis related to anthracycline therapy 4 months prior that was diagnosed only after incidental diffuse myocardial calcifications on pre-treatment computed tomography raised suspicion.

Authors: Nath Alok , Neyaz Zafar , Hashim Zia , Agrawal Vinita , Richa Mishra
Published: November 2019

Objective:

Non-resolving consolidation (NRC) with inconclusive sputum, bronchoscopy, and bronchoalveolar lavage results poses a diagnostic dilemma. This retrospective analytical study was conducted to evaluate diagnostic yield and complications of percutaneous computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy (PCLB) in NRC. Assessment of clinical features and high-resolution CT (HRCT) characteristics was also done which may predict outcome.

Materials and Methods:

Data of PCLB performed for lung consolidation from January 2010 to January 2019 were retrospectively evaluated. For the determination of diagnostic yield, a positive result from any one specimen obtained by PCLB (tissue core, aspiration cytology, or microbiology) was sufficient to considered procedure diagnostic if it was concordant with clinical features, imaging findings, response to treatment, and subsequent follow-up. Student’s t-test and Fisher’s exact test were used for statistical analysis.

Results:

Out of total 56 patients, final diagnosis was achieved in 48 (19 malignant and 29 benign). Diagnostic yield was 69.6%. Complications were noted in 10 patients including mild hemoptysis and pneumothorax, which were managed conservatively. No clinical feature was having statistically significant association with final diagnosis. HRCT findings significantly associated with malignant outcome were larger size of consolidation, multiple contiguous lobe involvement, multiple air-filled cysts inside consolidation, and associated ground-glass areas or multiple ground-glass nodules. The absence of air bronchogram was more common in benign cases.

Conclusion:

PCLB is a safe and useful method for obtaining specimen in NRC. Differentiation of benign from malignant outcome is not possible based on clinical findings; however, certain HRCT findings raise suspicion of malignancy.
Application of Mechanistic Modeling for Gas Lift Optimization: A General Scaling Curve for Variations of Tubing Size to Optimum Gas Injection
Authors: Aziz Prasandi Abdul , Lumban Gaol Ardhi Hakim , Daton Wijoyo Niti , Chandra Steven
Published: November 2019

Gas Lift is currently held as one of the most prominent method in artificial lift, proudly operated flawlessly in hundreds of oil wells in Indonesia. However, gas lift optimization is still governed by the exhaustive Gas Lift Performance Curves (GLPC). This practice, albeit as established as it should be, does require repetitive calculations to be able to perform in life of well operations. Therefore, a new approach is introduced based on the mechanistic modeling. This research highlights the application of fundamental mechanistic modeling and its derivative, the Flow Pattern Map (FPM) for quick estimation of optimum injection gas rate, accompanied by a novel correction factor to account changing tubing sizes. It is hoped that this approach can be beneficial in developing a multitude of gas lift wells with changing tubing sizes.
Exploring Homogeneous Conditions for Mild Buchwald-Hartwig Amination in Batch and Flow
Authors: Kashani Saeed K. , Jessiman Jacob E. , Newman Stephen
Published: November 2019

We describe the use of high throughput experimentation to identify a number of conditions that enable Buchwald-Hartwig reactions to be carried out using readily available ligands (e.g. XantPhos) with DBU as a soluble, functional group tolerant, homogeneous base. Application of this system to diverse aminations in batch and flow are demonstrated, as is the translation of this technique to performing continuous Mizoroki-Heck and Sonogashira coupling reac-tions.
PET-RAFT Facilitated 3D Printing of Polymeric Materials

Published: November 2019

Photopolymerization-based 3D printing process is typically conducted using nonliving free radical polymerization, which leads to fabrication of immutable materials. An alternative 3D printing of polymeric materials using trithiocarbonate (TTC) reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agents has always been a challenge for material and polymer scientists. Herein we report the first 3D printing of RAFT-based formulations that can be conducted fully open to air using standard digital light processing (DLP) 3D printer and under mild conditions of visible light at blue (λ max = 483 nm, 4.16 mW/cm2) or green (λ max = 532 nm, 0.48 mW/cm2) wavelength. Our approach is based on activation of TTC RAFT agents using eosin Y (EY) as a photoinduced electron-transfer (PET) catalyst in the presence of a reducing agent (tertiary amine), which facilitated oxygen tolerant 3D printing process via a reductive PET initiation mechanism. Re-activation of the TTCs present within the polymer networks enables post-printing monomer insertion into the outer layers of an already printed dormant object under second RAFT process, which provides a new pathway to design a more complex 3D printing. To our best knowledge, this is the first example of open-to-air PET-RAFT facilitated 3D printing of polymeric materials. We believe that our strategy is a significant step forward in the field of 3D printing.

The success of aquaculture is one of the supporting factors in food sustainability, one of such is the aquaculture of tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus). The main issue of tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus) aquaculture is disease infestation caused by viruses, microbes, and fungi (1). One of the technologies to control such infestation is the immunostimulant of non-specific immunity. Traditional herbs such as Piper retrofractum, Curcuma aeruginosa, and Curcuma zanthorrhiza have been proven to enhance the immunity system. This study aims to determine the optimal dosage of herb extract (Piper retrofractum, Curcuma aeruginosa, and Curcuma zanthorrhiza) to strengthen non-specific immunity of tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus), to record data on total leukocyte count and phagocytosis activity in the subject against pathogenic infection from Vibrio alginolyticus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and on the side effects of  the application of the herbal extracts on meat quality (organoleptic) of tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus)(2). The study was carried out by experimental method using random design with 3 repetitions. The experiment was performed in plastic tanks using flow through system with siphon construction. Steps performed include: Herb sample collection, herb samples extraction, herb extract supplementation into artificial food, dose optimization of herb extract application, challenge test, and side effect test (3). The result shows that treatment with 1% Piper retrofractum, 0.5% Curcuma aeruginosa, and 1% Curcuma zanthorrhiza herb extract increased total leukocyte count and phagocytosis activity in tiger grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus). Organoleptic test of all three treatments indicated similar results, with solid texture and bland flavor. Challenge test against pathogenic infection from V. alginolyticus and V. parahaemolyticus found that the treatment reduced the mortality rate to 0%.

Form follows function in evidence-based public policy: the pragmatic alternative to the positivist orthodoxy
Authors: Garcés Pablo
Published: November 2019

For quite some time now there has been a push for more evidence-based public policy. The premise has been that policies informed by reliable data and analysis will achieve their expected results. In great measure, this demand has been answered by evidence built on the dominant approach in science: «positivism». In this paper, it is argued that positivism has important shortcomings which make it detrimental to that project. Thus, it makes the case for pragmatism as a plausible alternative. The argument departs from the philosophy of science, establishing the principles underlining each approach and then elaborates how they translate to the production and evaluation of evidence. The abandonment of the positivist pursuit of certainty for a pragmatic recognition of the plurality of human experience and the diversity of contexts allows to set a clearer scope for the use of evidence, potentially enhancing the effectiveness of policies based on it.
The relationship between corruption and inequality in Colombia: empirical evidence using panel data for the period 2008-2017
Authors: Sáenz-Castro Jorge Enrique , García-González Juan David
Published: November 2019

In this paper, we use annual data from 2008 to 2017 for 24 departments of Colombia, including Bogota DC, to study the relationships between Corruption and inequality. The econometric results obtained with the Pedroni methodology (1995, 2001) indicate a positive correlation between corruption and the GINI. This result coincides with the findings of various authors who argue that increases in the level of fraud or low institutional quality result in increased social class inequality. On the other hand, there is a positive and statistically significant relationship between the GINI, unemployment, informality and per capita GDP, while education has a negative impact on income inequality.

Sultan I. Alaeddin Keykubad’ın İnşa Ettirdiği Kervansaraylardaki Figürlü Süslemeler
Authors: DURSUN Şükrü
Published: November 2019

Anadolu Selçuklu Devleti’nde Sultan II. Kılıç Arslan (1155-1192) ile birlikte ivme kazanarak gelişmeye başlayan ticaret, Sultan I. Alaeddin Keykubad’ın (1220-1237) atılımları ve adeta bu anlamda seferberlik ilan etmesi sayesinde doruk noktasına ulaşmıştır. Keykubad’ın yanı sıra, dönemin önde gelen şahsiyetleri tarafından da inşa edilen ve ticaretin önemli göstergesi olan kervansaraylar, mimarisi ve süslemeleri bakımından üst düzey eserler olmuştur. Özellikle, Keykubad’ın Aksaray ve Kayseri’deki “Sultan” ismiyle anılan hanları, boyutları ve süslemeleri bakımından abidevi niteliktedir. Her ne kadar bu eserler süslemeleriyle eşsiz güzellikler sunuyor olsa da yine Keykubad tarafından inşa ettirilen Alara Han’da bu iki esere oranla daha az süsleme bulunur. Günümüze ulaşan eserlerde görüldüğü üzere, I. Alaeddin Keykubad döneminde hemen her yapı türünde çeşitli figürlü süslemelere yer verilmiştir. Özellikle bizzat sultanın emriyle inşa edilen saraylar, bu süreçte figüratif süslemeye en çok rastlanan yapılardandır. Ancak, figürlü süsleme açısından, sultanın baniliğinde yapılan kervansaraylarda aynı oranı yakalayamıyoruz. Bu yapılardaki figürlü süslemeler bazı araştırmacılar tarafından incelenmiş ve yayımlanmıştır. Fakat yaptığımız çalışmada figürlü süslemelerin yayınlarda geçenlerden daha çok olduğu, bazı figürlerin ise restorasyonlarda eklendiği tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, yok olmuş ancak kalıntılardan varlığına yönelik varsayımlarda bulunulanlarla birlikte, neredeyse hiç bilinmeyenler, restorasyonlarda eklenenler ve yayınlarda bahsi geçen mevcut figürlü süslemeler ele alınmış, aynı zamanda sembolik anlamları üzerinde durulmuştur.

Tarihî yapıların sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamak, kültürel değerlerinin korunması ve gelecek nesillere bilgi akışının devam etmesi için önemli eylemlerden biridir. Isıtma, soğutma, aydınlatma, havalandırma, çatı akaçlama, temiz ve atık su sistemlerinden oluşan işlevsel sistemler ise yapıların sürdürülebilirliğinin ve gerekli konfor şartlarının sağlanması için önemli temel bileşenlerdir. Tarihi yapılarda işlevsel sistemler üzerine çalışmalar mevcuttur. Ancak geleneksel konut yapısı özelinde tüm sistemlerin sistematik olarak incelendiği araştırmalar kısıtlıdır. Bu nedenle, bu araştırma kapsamında, öncelikle geleneksel Türk evinde işlevsel sistemler araştırılmıştır. Elde dilen veriler ışığında, Konya, Ilgın ilçe merkezinde yer alan 159 ada, 5 parseldeki özgünlüğünü büyük oranda koruyan tescilli bir geleneksel konut yapısı, örnek alan çalışması olarak belirlenmiş ve işlevsel sistemleri açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Arazi çalışması, arşiv ve literatür taraması, araştırma kapsamında kullanılan başlıca metotlardır. Araştırmanın amacı, Ilgın geleneksel konut yapılarındaki işlevsel sistemlerin özgün bir örneklem üzerinden irdelenmesi ve korunmuşluk durumlarının tespitidir. Bu çalışma kapsamında incelen konut yapısının işlevsel sistemlerinde günümüz teknolojisine uyarlamak için değişiklikler yapıldığı ve özgün sistemlerin çoğunlukla kullanılmadığı gözlenmiştir. Bu araştırma ile örneklem yapı özelinde geleneksel Türk evinde işlevsel sistemlerin tanınırlığının arttırılması; bu sistemlerin özgün halleri ile yaşatılması, sürdürülmesi, korunması ve günümüz konfor koşullarına uygun bir şekilde uyarlanması açısından önemlidir.

Published: November 2019

Ulusal ve uluslararası koleksiyonlara ilişkin yayınlar, sanat tarihine ve arkeolojiye yeni veriler kazandırmaları açısından takdire değerdir. Bu yolla özel koleksiyonlardaki pek çok eserin bilim insanları ve meraklıları ile paylaşılmasına vesile olan çalışmalardan biri de yazımızın konusunu oluşturan Koray Selçik Koleksiyonu’na ait cam eserlerdir. Cam koleksiyonundan beş cam şişe, üç pendant, bir kâse ve karıştırma çubuğu makalemizde tanıtılacaktır. Cam şişeler özellikle Roma’dan Bizans’a kadar devam eden bir gelenekte, yapım maliyetinin düşüklüğüne ve pratikliğine bağlı olarak, yaygın kullanılan, serbest üfleme tekniğinde yapılmış örneklerdir. Koleksiyonda yer bulan ve Roma döneminde ortaya çıkan, literatürde Hofheim Cup diye bilinen kapların alt tipini temsil eden cam kâse, çağının lüks objelerinden biri olmalıydı. Cam eserler arasında nadir görülen pendantlar ise Roma ve Bizans devrinin sevilen cam takılarındandır. Kolye uçlarının ne amaçla yapıldığına ilişkin herhangi yazılı kaynak yoktur. Dolayısıyla bunlar sadece kişisel ziynet eşyaları olabileceği gibi aynı zamanda, muhtemelen sağlık, tılsım ve şans getirmesi için taşınılan nesnelerdi. Cam çubuklar ise Roma dönemi ile görülmeye başlanan ve Roma’nın hüküm sürdüğü yerlerde sıklıkla gözlenen, ancak işleviyle ilgili hala tartışmalar olan objelerdendir. Bu bağlamda koleksiyonda tüm halde korunabilmiş bir örnek de yine metnimizde değinilecek camlardan biridir.

Published: November 2019

Bahan bakar merupakan salah satu kebutuhan yang saat ini tidak bisa dilepaskan dari masyarakat. Bahan bakar cair terutama bensin atau premium, pertalite, pertamax, dan solar merupakan bahan bakar yang digunakan pada alat transportasi. Semakin banyak alat transportasi yang dimiliki masyarakat dapat memungkinkan tidak tersedianya stok bahan bakar di salah satu SPBU (Stasiun Pengisian Bahan Bakar Umum) tertentu. Dengan tidak tersedianya stok persediaan bahan bakar di SPBU, hal ini dapat menimbulkan beberapa masalah, seperti antrian yang panjang pada salah satu SPBU, serta kurangnya kebutuhan bahan bakar pada masyarakat. Salah satu metode untuk memecahkan masalah tersebut adalah menggunakan metode Fuzzy Tsukamoto. Fuzzy Tsukamoto merupakan salah satu metode yang termasuk ke dalam sistem inferensi fuzzy. Metode ini dapat menentukan jumlah produksi, sehingga jumlah produksi sebuah barang dapat diprediksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode Tsukamoto mampu memprediksi jumlah penerimaan stok bahan bakar yang seharusnya diterima oleh SPBU pada periode berikutnya. Dimana, hasil pengujian ketepatan prediksi diukur dengan menggunakan metode MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) dengan nilai persentase error yang didapatkan adalah sebesar 16 %, sehingga kinerja sistem dalam memprediksi stok bahan bakar dapat dikatakan bagus.

A model of personality pathology including both general and specific components distinguishes severity of personality dysfunction from the characteristic style of its expression. Whether and how general and specific features of personality pathology relate to momentary dynamics of affect and interpersonal behavior remain open questions. We explored these questions in a student sample (N=294) and pre-registered replication in a community sample (N=311). Ecological momentary assessment was used to measure affect, dominance, and warmth of self and other during interpersonal interactions. We examined one’s average affect and behavior and of one’s perception of the other’s behavior, and variability in these constructs. Associations between interpersonal patterns and personality pathology were estimated using multilevel structural equation modeling in each sample separately and in the pooled dataset. Results support the potential clinical impact of empirical models by demonstrating the structural independence of general and specific features, along with relationships to theoretically meaningful interpersonal behavior.
Treatment Effects in Longitudinal Two-Method Planned Missingness Designs: An Application and Tutorial
Authors: Logan Jessica A. R. , Xu Menglin
Published: November 2019

Planned missing data designs allow researchers to have highly-powered studies by testing only a fraction of the traditional sample size. In two-method planned missingness designs, researchers only assess part of the sample on a high-quality expensive measure, while the entire sample is given a more biased, inexpensive measure. The present study focuses on a longitudinal application of the two-method planned missingness design. We provide evidence of the effectiveness of this design for fitting developmental data. Methodologically, we extend the framework for use within causal modeling. Finally, we provide code and step-by-step instructions for how to analyze data within these frameworks.
Ability of Covariance Matrix in Bi-Response Multi-Prredictor Penalized Spline Model Through Longitudinal Data Simulation
Authors: Islamiyati Anna
Published: November 2019

Abstract: Bi-response longitudinal data is assumed to have a correlation between responses and observations on the same subject. This causes a correlation between errors. To overcome this problem, we can use a penalized spline model that involves weighting. In this study, the weight used is the covariance matrix. Based on longitudinal data simulations that contain two responses and three predictors, a small GCV value is obtained from the penalized spline model that involves the covariance matrix. This value is compared with the penalized spline model without the covariance matrix. This shows that we need to involve a covariance matrix in estimating bi-response multi-predictor longitudinal data with a penalized spline model.

The accurate and objective measurement of cognitive workload is important in many aspects of psychological research. The Detection Response Task (DRT) is a well-validated method for measuring cognitive workload that has been used extensively in applied tasks, for example to investigate the effects of fatigue and phone usage on driving. Given its success in applied tasks, we investigated whether the DRT could be used to measure cognitive workload in cognitive tasks more commonly used in experimental cognitive psychology, and whether this application could be extended to online environments. We had participants perform a multiple object tracking task while simultaneously performing a DRT. We manipulated the cognitive load of the multiple object tracking task by changing the number of dots to be tracked. Measurements from the DRT were sensitive to changes in the cognitive load, establishing the efficacy of the DRT for experimental cognitive tasks in lab-based situations. This sensitivity continued when applied to an online environment (with our code for the online DRT implementation being freely available at \url{https://osf.io/dc39s/}), though to a reduced extent compared to the in-lab situation, opening up the potential use of the DRT to a much greater range of tasks and situations, but suggesting that in-lab applications are best when possible.

Published: November 2019

Chemical tanker vessels are at risk for large-scale accidents due to the nature of their cargo and operating conditions, challenging environments as well as general maritime hazards. To counteract such hazards, the ship-owning company works on maintaining safety at the organizational level, and the captain instantiates safety regulations on the interpersonal level. The crew members are expected to maintain safety by having accurate situation awareness, and beneficial safety attitudes and behaviour. We pre-registered an analysis to test for associations between safety variables in a survey for chemical tanker vessel crews. A structural equation model revealed that the ship-owning company’s safety climate and the captain’s leadership style were associated with the vessel’s safety climate. Further, the vessel’s safety climate was associated with individual safety attitude, situation awareness and adherence to safety management systems. Safety attitude had a central role in the model and was associated with situation awareness, reporting attitude, safe behaviour and adherence to safety management systems. The results imply that it may be beneficial to monitor and improve safety attitudes among crew on chemical tanker vessels and in similar work-environments.

The purpose of study was to investigate the impact of maternal education on child mortality. A large frame of studies suggests that a causal relationship exists between maternal training and youth mortality. This paper seeks to shed some light at the influence of maternal schooling and youth mortality. The results show that acquisition of education leads to higher human, social and cultural capital amongst moms, that's associated with progressed baby survival. Moreover, this study show that better training of the mother is related to more physical and choice-making autonomy for her inside the household, which may also lead to higher fitness outcomes for the child.

Melissa Poll. Robert Lepage’s Scenographic Dramaturgy: The Aesthetic Signature at Work.
Authors: Dundjerovic Aleksandar
Published: November 2019

Robert Lepage’s Scenographic Dramaturgy examines how Lepage’s adaptation of canonical performance texts, through a highly visual and imaginative use of theatre space, functions as a new concept of “scenographic dramaturgy.” This book reframes notions of devising performance in spatial terms, includes rarely discussed works, and provides a valuable understanding of Lepage’s performance-making for both academics and practitioners.

“Stories that Never Stop”: Fugitivity and Neo-Slave Performance
Authors: Mccormick Stacie Selmon
Published: November 2019

This article examines contemporary black plays that both align with and depart from the neo-slave narrative, the most prominent form of contemporary literary engagement with slavery. Focusing on Lydia Diamond’s Harriet Jacobs (2008) and Nathan Alan Davis’s Nat Turner in Jerusalem, I argue that contemporary black plays on slavery constitute neo-slave performance insofar as they introduce the body, visuality, and various performance technologies to address aspects of slavery for which the written word cannot fully account. Harriet Jacobs and Nat Turner in Jerusalem demonstrate drama’s expansive capacity to represent slavery because they reframe slavery’s graphic economies and the historical depictions of captive black bodies while also intervening in the canonical narrative accounts of Harriet Jacobs and Nat Turner. These plays can be understood as performing fugitivity: they advance an artistic and political effort on the part of black subjects, past and present, to evade objectification and one-dimensional representations of slavery and blackness.
“Is That What We Wanted?”: Staging Slavery’s Affective Scripts
Authors: Post Tina
Published: November 2019

An Octoroon by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and Underground Railroad Game by Jennifer Kidwell and Scott R. Sheppard present metatheatrical stagings of enslavement that promise to disrupt the institution’s dominant narrative and affective propositions. Through alterations of form, narrative, character, and setting, these two plays defamiliarize tropes of enslavement that might otherwise go unexamined. By so doing, the plays also unsettle the affective scripts that audiences rely on as predictable components of enslavement’s theatrical repertoires. This approach would seem to enable new visions and possibilities for meaning-making. However, metatheatricality also allows for latitude in audience interpretation and participation, so this promise can go unfulfilled – and such a lack of fulfilment, in the end, can become the spectacle staged.
Flame Retardancy Effects on Intumescent Coatings with Vinyl Acetate Copolymers

Published: November 2019

This research aimed to study the effects of fire combustion on materials coated with ethylene vinyl acetate and polyvinyl acetate copolymer emulsion resins with differing foam producing substance to dehydrating agent ratios. The flame retardancy of these materials was assessed by evaluating their heat release, CO and CO2 emissions. Experimental results indicate that intumescent paint formulations significantly enhance the flame retardancy of painted plywood, thus reducing peak heat release rate and extending the time to reach peak heat release rate. Moreover, a low amount of foam producing substance enhances the fire retardancy of plywood panels. Furthermore, binder resin containing vinyl acetate monomer in intumescent coatings can enhance fire performance. In addition, low foam producing substance content can form an ideal char layer, which significantly reduces CO and CO2 emissions. The mechanism to achieve more favorable fire performance was verified by carrying out thermogravimetric analysis, which demonstrated lower weight loss. The results of this study provide an improved understanding of the effects of intumescent coatings.
Enhancement of Injection Molding Consistency by Adjusting Velocity/Pressure Switching Time Based on Clamping Force
Authors: Chen J.-Y. , Liu C.-Y. , Huang M.-S.
Published: November 2019

The velocity/pressure (V/P) switching time, the transition from the filling phase to the holding phase during the injection molding cycle, plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality of the injection molding. Improper settings can lead to a variety of defects, including oversize/undersize, excessive residual stress, flash, warpage, and the like. There are currently many V/P switching methods to choose from. For example, when the injection time or the screw position reaches a prescribed value, that is, when a specified percentage of the cavity is filled with the molten resin, the switching time can be started. These traditional V/P switching methods should work well using precision injection molding machines to ensure accurate and repeatable motion control. However, the quality of shot-to-shot injection molding still varies with environmental changes, such as varying mold/melt temperatures. In this study, we propose a V/P switching adjustment method involving part weight or maximum clamping force increments. It was found that the weight of the injection molded part was highly correlated with the maximum clamping force increment and the V/P switching time. Experimental verification by considering various settings such as V/P switching time, injection speed and holding pressure show that the adjustment method is a feasible means of assuring quality consistency.
