bahasa indonesia merupakan bahasa resmi bangsa indonesia yang digunakan untuk komunikasi dan pemersatu bangsa. Perkembangan teknologi informasi yang demikian cepat memungkinkan terjadinya komunikasi secara global yang artinya dapat menjangkau lintas negara maupun lintas benua. Pada makalah ini akan dijelaskan mengenai peran bahasa Indonesia dalam ilmu pengetahuan di era global. Di era globalisasi saat ini, beberapa orang menganggap bahwa bahasa Indonesia bagian dari penghambat proses komunikasi yang dilakukan secara global. Karena bahasa Indonesia tidak digunakan secara global, hal ini menyebabkan bahasa Indonesia tampak tidak begitu memfasilitasi proses globalisasi. Peningkatan fungsi bahasa Indonesia sebagai sarana keilmuan perlu terus dilakukan sejalan dengan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi.

Published: January 2019

ABSTRAKBahasa Indonesia sebagai bahasa resmi bagi bangsa dan negara Indonesia telah digunakan sebagai alat komunikasi lisan dan tulis dalam berbagai keperluan, baik formal maupun informal. Di samping sebagai alat komunikasibahasa Indonesia juga berfungsi sebagai alat pemersatu dan kebanggaan bagi bangsa Indonesia. Pada era globalisasi ini bahasa Indonesia dihadapkan pada perkembangan dunia yang sangat pesat, termasuk perkembangan teknologi informasi dan kebudayaan yang begitu mencemaskan. Dengan pesatnya perkembangan teknologi informasi dan kebudyaan tersebut menuntut bangsa Indonesia untuk bekerja keras, dan secara aktif mempersiapkan diri mengejar ketinggalan yang ada dari berbagai aspek kehidupan, dan termasuk mengantisipasi perkembangan informasi dan budaya yang mengglobal. Salah satu usaha untuk mengantisipasi era globalisasi itu, pihak penyelenggara sekolah, dari sekolah dasar sampai ke perguruan tinggi mulai menerapkan pembelajaran bahasa Inggris bagi siswa dan mahasiswa mereka. Pemberlakuan itu akan berdampak positif dan negative. Dampak pisitif tentulah akan memudahkan bagi para pelajar dan mahasiswa untuk berkomunikasi secara internasional. Sementara itu, dampak negatifnya diprediksikan loyalitas pembelajar terhadap bahasa Indonesia menjadi berkurkurang, bahkan akan menjadi luntur. Bagaimana kiat bangsa Indonesia untuk mengejar ketinggalan dari bangsa lain dan bagaimana kiatnya agar bangsa Indonesia tetap mencintai bangsanya dan termasuk bahasanya, tentunya harus adanya kerja keras dan kepedulian dari seluruh komponen bangsa Indonesia.
Desain dan Analisis Inverter Tiga Fasa Menggunakan Metode SPWM
Authors: Asnil  , Krismadinata  , Husnaini Irma
Published: January 2019

Makalah ini membahas mengenai penerapan metode Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) dan filter pasif LC jenis low pass pada inverter tiga fasa sebagai upaya untuk mengurangi distorsi (harmonik) gelombang keluaran inverter. Dari simulasi menggunkan metode SPWM didapatkan nilai THD tegangan fasa keluaran inverter sebesar 68,72%, tegangan fasa-fasa 68,71% dan arus 0,92%. Gelombang tegangan keluaran inverter belum sinusoidal dan masih terdistorsi sedangkan gelombang arus sudah berbentuk sinusoidal. Untuk memperbaiki gelombang tegangan agar sinusoidal maka dipakai filter pasif LC. Setelah dipasang filter LC, bentuk gelombang keluaran inverter baik tegangan maupun arus sudah berbentuk sinusoidal. Sedangkan nilai THD tegangan dan arus juga terjadi pengurangan. Nilai THD gelombang keluaran inverter setelah dipasang filter untuk tegangan fasa menjadi 0,21%, tegangan fasa-fasa menjadi 0,29% dan arus menjadi 0,15%. Dengan demikian, penerapan metode SPWM dan filter pasif LC dapat menurunkan nilai TDH gelombang keluaran inverter dengan baik serta menjadikan gelombang keluaran sinusoidal.

Generalised inhibitory impairment to appetitive cues: From alcoholic to non-alcoholic visual stimuli
Authors: Monk Rebecca , Qureshi Adam , Pennington Charlotte Rebecca , Hamlin Iain
Published: January 2019

BackgroundPrior research demonstrates that individuals who consume alcohol show diminished inhibitory control towards alcohol-related cues. However, such research contrasts predominantly alcoholic appetitive cues with non-alcoholic, non-appetitive cues (e.g., stationary items). As such, it is not clear whether it is specifically the alcoholic nature of the cues that influences impairments in inhibitory control or whether more general appetitive processes are at play.AimsThe current study examined the hitherto untested assertion that the disinhibiting effects of alcohol-related stimuli might generalise to other appetitive liquid stimuli, but not to non-appetitive liquid stimuli.MethodFifty-nine participants (Mage = 21.63, SD = 5.85) completed a modified version of the Stop Signal Task, which exposed them to visual stimuli of three types of liquids: Alcoholic appetitive (e.g., wine), non-alcoholic appetitive (e.g., water) and non-appetitive (e.g., washing-up liquid).ResultsConsistent with predictions, Stop-signal reaction time was significantly longer for appetitive (alcoholic, non-alcoholic) compared to non-appetitive stimuli. Participants were also faster and less error-prone when responding to appetitive relative to non-appetitive stimuli on go-trials. There were no apparent differences in stop signal reaction times between alcoholic and non-alcoholic appetitive products.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that decreases in inhibitory control in response to alcohol-related cues might generalise to other appetitive liquids, possibly due to evaluative conditioning. Implications for existing research methodologies include the use of appetitive control conditions and the diversification of cues within tests of alcohol-related inhibitory control.

Forward inference in risky choice: Mapping gaze and decision processes
Authors: Schoemann Martin , Schulte-Mecklenbeck Michael , Renkewitz Frank , Scherbaum Stefan
Published: January 2019

The study of cognitive processes is built on a close mapping between three components: overt gaze behavior - overt choice - covert processes. To validate this overt-covert mapping in the domain of decision making we collected eye-movement data during decisions between risky gamble problems. Applying a forward inference paradigm, participants were instructed to use specific decision strategies to solve those gamble problems (maximizing expected values or applying different choice heuristics) during which gaze behavior was recorded. We revealed differences between overt behavior, as indicated by eye movements, and covert decision processes, instructed by the experimenter. However, our results indicate that the overt-covert mapping is for some eye-movement measures not as close as expected by current decision theory, and hence question reverse inference as being prone to fallacies due to a violation of its prerequisite, that is, a close overt-covert mapping. We propose a framework to rehabilitate reverse inference.
Processing Speed, Working Memory, and Executive Functions: Independent or inter-related predictors of general intelligence
Authors: Frischkorn Gidon T. , Schubert Anna-Lena , Hagemann Dirk
Published: January 2019

Both working memory capacity (WMC) and processing speed (PS) have been discussed as important covariates of individual differences in intelligence. Recent results indicated that especially latencies of ERP components associated with higher-order processing (P2, N2, and P3) may share up to 80% of variance with individual differences in intelligence. WMC has a similar predictive power and thus these two processes cannot explain individual differences in intelligence independently. The current study explores in how far individual differences in executive functions (EFs) may bridge the gap between WMC and PS as predictors of intelligence. We recruited 101 participants who completed three EF tasks – one for each of the three executive functions shifting, updating, and inhibition. Additionally, we assessed participants’ intelligence, WMC, and PS. Results showed that only variance of behavioral RTs consistent across manipulations in the EF tasks was related to WMC, PS, and intelligence. The variance specific to the manipulations in EF tasks was small and showed no consistent correlations with each other or with any of the three covariates. These results suggest that EF tasks capture mostly manipulation-unspecific cognitive processes. Hence, individual differences in the impairment due to additional executive processing demands cannot explain why WMC and PS are related predictors of individual differences in intelligence.
Stereotype Threat May Not Impact Women’s Inhibitory Control or Mathematical Performance: Providing Support for the Null Hypothesis
Authors: Pennington Charlotte Rebecca , Litchfield Damien , McLatchie Neil , Heim Derek
Published: January 2019

Underpinned by the findings of Jamieson and Harkins (2007; Experiment 3, Journal of Personality & Social Psychology), the current study pits the mere effort motivational account of stereotype threat against a working memory interference account. In Experiment 1, females were primed with a negative self- or group stereotype pertaining to their visuospatial ability and completed an anti-saccade eye-tracking task. In Experiment 2 they were primed with a negative or positive group stereotype and completed an anti-saccade and mental arithmetic task. Findings indicate that stereotype threat did not significantly impair women’s inhibitory control (Experiments 1 & 2) or mathematical performance (Experiment 2), with Bayesian analyses providing support for the null hypothesis. These findings are discussed in relation to potential moderating factors of stereotype threat, such as task difficulty and stereotype endorsement, as well as the possibility that effect sizes reported in the stereotype threat literature are inflated due to publication bias.

Authors: Poudyal Rajib Lochan , Watanabe Manabu , Suzuki Toru
Published: January 2019

Paneer is acid heat milk coagulated soft cheese popular in South East Asia. The shelf life is a major limitation for its utilization; even when kept under refrigeration. Similarly, the texture becomes flaky and fluffy after thawing. Freezing rate effects on the growth of ice crystals as well as microstructure damage that is responsible for the change in the textural quality of the Paneer. In this study, the effect of two-dimensional freezing by static air observed before and after freezing. Effect of freezing on panner were subject to analyses under slow freezing at -30°C, rapid freezing at -80 °C and supercooling freezing conditions. The quality evaluation carried out by means of drip loss, textural analysis, and microscopic observation. By using this technique, it was possible to decide the supercooling freezing is significantly best method for preserve the paneer to keep required hardness, low drip and small cracks and rupture in a microstructure in compare to another method.
Effect of intercropping on the incidence of Jassid (Amrasca biguttula biguttula Ish.) and Whitefly (Bemesia tabaci Guen.) in Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench)

Published: January 2019

Okra is one of the most important summer vegetables in South Asian countries including Nepal. However, the damage by insects like Jassid (Amrasca biguttula Ish.) and whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Guen) has resulted in significant reduction of its production. An experiment was conducted based on intercropping taking okra (Abelmoschus exculentus L. Moench) as the main crop in Arghau, Lekhnath-27, Kaski, Nepal from March 4 to May 24, 2018. The intercrops used were coriander (Corriander sativum), carrot (Daucas carota), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) and parsley (Petroselinum crispum). The population of jassid and whitefly was recorded from three leaves representing the different strata (bottom, middle and top) of the vegetative parts; and related yield parameters were also observed to correlate with the level of population incidence of these pests. Least numbers of jassids (5.50±0.29, 6.94±0.43, 8.00±0.41 and 3.69±0.76) were observed respectively at 30, 40, 50 and 60 days after sowing (DAS) in okra+ coriander. Likewise, okra + coriander intercropping was effective in inhibiting the population of whitefly (7.50±0.59, 8.56±0.19, 10.25±0.66 and 7.06±0.42) at 30, 40, 50 and 60 days after sowing (DAS) respectively. In contrary, the highest number of jassids and whiteflies were observed in okra + parsley and control (okra only). Both pod length (cm) and yield (t/ha) were the highest (17.92±0.57 and 28.20±0.49 respectively) in okra + coriander and were the lowest (16.42±0.21 and 27.58±0.39 respectively) in okra + carrot. The benefit-cost ratio was in order okra + coriander > okra + carrot > okra + fennel > okra + parsley > control (okra only). Among the different intercrop combinations, the okra + coriander was found most effective that could be suggested as one of the alternative strategies to limit the population of pests; jassid and whitefly in okra.

Ticks cause serious economic losses in livestock production worldwide. A study was conducted in 2017/18 to determine the abundance of tick population on different geographical regions and body parts of cattle. Three study sites were taken from mid hill, inner terai and terai region of Nepal. A total of 45 dairy cattle (15 from each region) were included randomly for the study. Regarding the distribution of ticks in cattle body part, higher number of ticks were recorded on dewlap (38.61%) followed by perineum and udder (25.10%), ear base (15.06%), tail base (9.07%), abdomen (7.34%) and withers (4.83%). Similarly, highest numbers of ticks were recorded in Chitwan (19.46 ticks on an average) cattle followed by Dang (9.13 ticks on an average) and least in Lamjung (5.73 ticks on an average) cattle. This result indicates that higher tick infestation was found in warm, moist, hidden sites with good vascular supply and thin skin in cattle body. Similarly, more tick were recorded in cattle keeping with poor animal husbandry practices.
A Philosophical View on and a Technical Approach to Leading a Learning Organization
Authors: Qutoshi Sadruddin Bahadur , Rajbhandari Mani Man Singh
Published: January 2019

From a philosophical viewpoint and a technical perspective, this paper claims that learning organizations are the most effective organizations which 1) demonstrate transformative leadership practices, 2) work to instigate a learning-based organizational environment, and 3) continually promote learning behavior at all levels, to name a few of its key characteristics. Like other organizations, educational organizations would exhibit individual behavior, collective actions and interactions which define their norms and values. The purpose of this paper is to explore: what it means to be a learning organization; what are and should be its key characteristics; and how to create a learning organization. The findings of this study show that learning organizations are characterized by a collective struggle to achieve organizational goals, where culture and climate concerns become paramount, and learning is viewed as part of everyone’s business regardless of individual differences, roles, and responsibilities. It is the leadership in a learning organization that builds the culture and climate conducive to bring about transformation at individual, organizational and societal levels with the concepts of lifelong learning.
Non-Formal Vocational Education for Pineapple Farmers: Promoting ‘Relevance’ of Education to Rural Economy
Authors: Suebnusorn Wanwisa
Published: January 2019

Canned-pineapple is one of the most important exports of Thailand. Unfortunately, the more pineapples the farmers cultivate, the more they are likely to fall into debt and become poorer. Therefore, in 2011, the Phetchaburi College of Agriculture and Technology in collaboration with Kuiburi Fruit Canning Company Limited initiated a non-formal vocational education program tailored to the pineapple farmers who were normally in the age between 40 and 60. The primary aims of the program were to build trust between the farmers and the factories and to equip the farmers with necessary skills for pineapple planting as per the demands of the pineapple-processing factories. Through field visits, semi-structured interviews, and a focus-group interview with the stakeholders, this study sheds lights on the relevance of education to the demands of rural economy which transcends the traditional preparation of employees for rural economic sectors. The well-educated farmers who understand their roles in the farming stage of the food industry’s value chain are as important as formal workers or employees in the breeding, the post-harvest, the production process, as well as the marketing and logistics stages of the value chain. Therefore, non-formal vocational education for the rural labour market should by no means be confined to formal workers in the downstream of the value chain. Informal workers or farmers in the upstream of the value chain have crucial impact on its subsequent stages. Above all, being empowered by relevant non-formal vocational education, the roles of farmers in advancement of rural economy should be extended beyond farming.

Udomiteljstvo iz perspektive udomitelja Roma u romskim naseljima u Međimurskoj županiji
Authors: Krčar Mateja , Laklija Maja
Published: January 2019

Udomiteljstvo je jedan od oblika skrbi za djecu koji se javlja kao alternativa institucionalnom zbrinjavanju djece, a njegova je prednost upravo u činjenici obiteljskog okruženja. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je dobiti uvid u iskustva udomitelja pripadnika romske nacionalne manjine (N = 7) u pružanju udomiteljske skrbi za djecu u romskim naseljima u Međimurskoj županiji. Dobiveni rezultati pokazuju da je romske udomitelje na udomiteljstvo potakla želja za pružanjem primjerene skrbi djeci, postojanje uvjeta za bavljenje udomiteljstvom, kao i iskustvo udomiteljstva u vlastitoj obitelji. Sudionici u ovom istraživanju kao otežavajuće okolnosti u pružanju udomiteljske skrbi navode razne reakcije sumještana na njihovo bavljenje udomiteljstvom, ponašanje bioloških roditelja djece, ponašanja djece te život u romskom naselju zbog specifična načina života Roma. Osnažujuće okolnosti u pružanju udomiteljske skrbi su: socijalna podrška, tzv. emocionalni ‘efekti’ udomiteljstva na udomitelje kao i život u romskom naselju zbog očuvanja kulture, jezika i pripadnosti. Praktična je implikacija istraživanja produbljivanje razumijevanja ovoga tematskog područja, a rezultati, osim za promišljanje o budućim istraživanjima, pružaju smjernice za praktično djelovanje na razini poboljšanja kvalitete skrbi i brige za romsku djecu u udomiteljskoj skrbi te unapređenju podrške romskim udomiteljima u skladu s njihovom tradicijom i kulturom.

SAŽETAK: U ovom priopćenju opisana je metoda za bodovnu procjenu manualnog rada koji uključuje ponavljajuće zadatke, povremenu primjenu sile te nepravilan položaj tijela. Metoda je razvijena na temelju iscrpnog i kritičkog pregleda literature, ali i evaluacije u sklopu vlastitih istraživanja provedenih na različitim radnim mjestima. Osim što sadrži objektivni opis zadataka, ponavljajućih pokreta, sile i položaja tijela, ova metoda uključuje i mogućnost numeričkog izračuna spomenutih aktivnosti, ne zanemarujući njihovo međudjelovanje. Zahtjevi rada (trajanje zadatka tijekom radne smjene, ponavljajući pokreti, primjena sile, položaj tijela i radni uvjeti) prezentirani su bodovima, i to svaki na individualnoj ljestvici koja odgovara uvjetima u praksi. Kako bi se izračunala konačna vrijednost procjene rizika, potrebno je pomnožiti vrijednost dobivenu na ljestvici trajanja zadataka sa zbrojem vrijednosti koje su dobivene na ostalim ljestvicama. Konačna vrijednost ukazuje na potencijalnu preopterećenost, a iskazana je određenom brojkom koja se kasnije može uvrstiti u tablicu pojašnjenja pomoću koje se očitava jedna od moguće četiri razine rizika: zelena, žuta, narančasta ili crvena. U literaturi se upravo razvrstavanje kategorija prema bojama navodi kao učinkovita pomoć uz koju korisnik lakše percipira potencijalni rizik. Ova nova metoda zove se SMART (eng. Scoring Method for Assessment of Repetitive Tasks), a dosad je testirana na 56 radnih mjesta. Iz dobivenih rezultata vidljivo je kako se 23 % aktivnosti može smjestiti u “zeleno” područje, 19 % u “žuto”, 21 % u “narančasto” te 37 % u “crveno”, iz čega se može zaključiti kako je kod čak 77 % procjenjivanih aktivnosti bilo prisutno povećano opterećenje. SMART metoda u fazi je testiranja i validacije za procjenu statodinamičkih napora na raznim radnim mjestima.

Published: January 2019

SUMMARY: Public and private sector organizations worldwide are increasingly concerned with improving occupational safety and health (OSH) and increasingly seek skilled OSH professionals. Becoming an OSH professional requires a multidisciplinary training. Since 2012, the University of Turin, along with the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization (ITC-ILO), the International Labour Office (ILO) and the International Commission of Occupational Health (ICOH) collected this challenge and opened a master course in OSH.
The aim is to assess the consistency and effectiveness of the emerging educational proposal.
The proposed programme is opened to participants from both developing and developed countries. Besides a preparatory Internet-based Distance Learning Phase, enabling participants with different backgrounds to reach an adequate level of knowledge, this one-year programme includes a residential period, followed by another distance phase for the preparation of the dissertation. Residential Phase of Turin includes classroom training, study visits to selected enterprises and related training sessions.
From 2007 to 2018 more than 300 participants applied first to the Postgraduate course and then to the Master in OSH, with variable occupational backgrounds such as public institutions, private companies and Universities. 65,7% (SD 8,1%) of the participants were enrolled to the Residential Phase, with a mean age of 38 years (SD 7,4), 55,9% (SD 5,2%) achieved the Master Degree. Different evaluation strategies were used. The average satisfaction survey score was high (4,28; SD 0,67).
At the end of the training period, participants learnt to manage the use of OSH procedures and techniques and health management systems. The results of the profit and satisfaction questionnaires demonstrate the effectiveness of the course.

Kurzfassung

Die Kapazitätsplanung für die Regeneration komplexer Investitionsgüter, wie z. B. Schienenfahrzeug-Transformatoren, ist aufgrund der Informationsunschärfe sehr herausfordernd. Der Grund dafür ist, dass die für die Regeneration einzuplanenden Tätigkeiten und deren Umfänge zum Zeitpunkt der Planung oftmals nicht vollständig bekannt sind. Dies ist insbesondere dann schwierig, wenn die Regenerationsaufträge in eine laufende Fertigung integriert werden müssen und sich die Abweichung der aktuellen von der eingeplanten Belastung somit direkt auf den Produktionsplan auswirkt. Aufgrund der fortschreitenden Digitalisierung und der damit einhergehenden zunehmenden Datenverfügbarkeit eröffnen sich jedoch neue Potenziale für eine Verbesserung der Planungsgrundlage. In diesem Zusammenhang können Data-Mining-Ansätze für die Generierung von Belastungsprognosen genutzt werden und damit die Kapazitätsplanung unterstützen.

Kurzfassung

Eine kontinuierliche Überwachung der Qualität von gefertigten Bauteilen bzw. Werkstücken in der Zerspanung hat das Potenzial, schneller in den Prozess einzugreifen, die Produktion zu optimieren und die Produktivität zu steigern. In der aktuellen Fertigung von Produktionsbetrieben findet die Rückmeldung von Qualitätsinformationen wie der Einhaltung von Toleranzen mit einem gewissen zeitlichen Delay statt, sodass direkt nach dem Fertigungsprozess keine ausführlichen Informationen über die Bauteilqualität zur Verfügung stehen. Ein neuer am Werkzeugmaschinenlabor WZL der RWTH Aachen entwickelter Ansatz zur Vernetzung der Qualitätsmessung an den verschiedenen Stationen der digitalen Prozesskette bzw. CAD-CAM-NC-CAQ-Kette führt zu einer erhöhten Transparenz des Fertigungsprozesses und zu direkten Aussagen über die Bauteilqualität nach Fertigstellung des Bauteils.

Objectif : Le dépistage combiné de la trisomie 21 au premier trimestre est la méthode de référence depuis les recommandations de la HAS de 2007. Sa réalisation est soumise à l’obtention d’un numéro d’identification par le biais d’une évaluation des pratiques professionnelles (EPP) depuis 2009. L’objectif était d’évaluer les pratiques de dépistage en Basse-Normandie, les freins à la validation d’EPP, les habitudes d’autoévaluation acquises par les praticiens ayant validé une EPP et l’information remise aux patientes sur le dépistage.

Matériel et méthodes : Étude descriptive de mai à août 2016, fondée sur un questionnaire envoyé aux échographistes exerçant en Basse-Normandie, leur nombre étant évalué à 78.

Résultats : Quarante-sept questionnaires ont été analysés. Trente-six praticiens bénéficiaient d’un numéro d’identification, 35 d’entre eux adhéraient au réseau périnatal basnormand, et 29 évaluaient systématiquement le score de Herman de leur cliché de clarté nucale. Onze praticiens, dont huit n’adhéraient pas au réseau, ne réalisaient pas de dépistage combiné, justifiant cela par un manque de pratique de l’échographie et un manque de temps pour valider une EPP. Une information sur les modalités de dépistage était délivrée dans 76,6 % des cas.

Conclusion : Sept ans après l’arrêté de 2009, on ne parvient pas à une adhésion totale aux programmes d’EPP pour un dépistage optimal et uniforme. L’inscription des praticiens aux réseaux périnataux semble favoriser la validation d’EPP. Cette démarche de contrôle qualité permet l’apprentissage d’une autoévaluation par les praticiens dans la suite de leur exercice et ainsi une amélioration durable de la qualité du dépistage.
Epidemiology of transport accidents based on international statistical classification of diseases (ICD-10) in Mashhad, Iran
Authors: Sarbaz Masoumeh
Published: January 2019

Background: Road accidents are one of the main causes of death worldwide and the second cause of death in Iran. This study aimed to investigate the epidemiology of transport accidents based on the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) in patients who referred to trauma department of academic hospitals affiliated with Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in the northeast of Iran. Materials and Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was performed from March 20, 2013, to March 20, 2014. The study population included all records of inpatients referred due to transport accidents (9162 cases), to the three specialized trauma hospitals. Result: Majority of the patients involved in transport accidents were men (75%). Most transport accidents included motorcycle riders (39.36%), car occupants (26.21%) and pedestrians (24.82%), respectively. Most of the accidents occurred in summer (33.2%) and spring (26%). Majority of the accidents occurred between 6 PM to 8 PM, and fewer accidents occurred in the early hours of the day. Conclusion: Policymakers should consider more, groups at high risks, such as pedestrians and motorcyclist.

Evaluation of Gold Nanoparticle Size Effect on Dose Enhancement Factor in Megavoltage Beam Radiotherapy Using MAGICA Polymer Gel Dosimeter

Published: January 2019

Background: Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are among the most promising radiosensitive materials in radiotherapy. Studying the effective sensitizing factors such as nanoparticle size, concentration, surface features, radiation energy and cell type can help to optimize the effect and possible clinical application of GNPs in radiation therapy. In this study, the radiation sensitive polymer gel was used to investigate the dosimetric effect of GNP size in megavoltage (MV) photon beam radiotherapy.Material and Methods: GNPs with the size of 30nm, 50nm and 100nm in diameter were used. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were applied to analyze the size of nanoparticles. The MAGICA polymer gel was synthesized and impregnated with different sizes of GNPs. The samples were irradiated with 6MV photon beam and 24 hours after irradiation, they were read using a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanner. Macroscopic Dose Enhancement Factor (DEF) was measured to compare the effect of GNP size. The MAGICA response of the 6MV x-ray beam was verified comparing Percentage Depth Dose (PDD) curve extracted from polymer gel dosimetry and Treatment Planning System (TPS).Results: MAGICA polymer gel dose response curve was linear in the range of 0 to 10 Gy. DEFs by adding 30nm, 50nm and 100nm GNPs were 1.1, 1.17 and 1.12, respectively. PDD curves of polymer gel dosimeter and treatment planning system were in good agreement.Conclusion: The results indicated a substantial increase in DEF uses a MV photon beam in combination with GNPs of different sizes and it was inconsistent with previous radiobiological studies. The maximum DEF was achieved for 50nm GNPs in comparison with 30nm and 100nm leading to the assumption of self-absorption effect by larger diameters. According to the outcomes of this work, MAGICA polymer gel can be recommended as a reliable dosimeter to investigate the dosimetric effect of GNP size and also a useful method to validate the current radiobiological and simulation studies.
Sandbags, Strikes, and Scandals
Authors: Connolly James E.
Published: January 2019

In spring 1915, the delicate issue of French factory workers fabricating sandbags for the German army led to various breaches of public order in occupied Roubaix. These workers were criticized and physically assaulted by their occupied compatriots. At roughly the same time, many such workers refused to continue working for the German military authority. This unrest continued for months, putting the French administration, especially the local police force, in a difficult situation: these civil servants sought to restore public order and avoid punishments for the population, but did not want to encourage working for the Germans. Scandals involving policemen further undermined this challenging task. This article examines and explains these understudied events in detail, considering the nature of public disorder, the narrative of the “sandbag affair,” and the problems faced by the police. This allows for an insight into occupied life, especially the primacy of public perception and judgment.
World War I in the History of Globalization
Authors: Strikwerda Carl
Published: January 2019

World War I is the most important single event in the history of globalization. The war ended the first significant era of increasing economic ties among nations and thereby shaped the economic history of the twentieth century. The war set off both a search for ways to re-create the prewar liberal world economy and attempts to create statist alternatives to it. The collapse of interbank cooperation and expansion of controls on trade, migration, and agriculture meant that economic globalization re-emerged only very slowly over the rest of the twentieth century. Indeed, the long-term effects of World War I lasted until the 1990s. The lesson of this story for the twenty-first century is to check the dangers inherent in a multipolar world, where globalization produces both economic growth and social tensions.
Man vs. Machine

Signatures have been used as a means to authenticate documents for centuries. From the outset, the focus of forensic examinations was to both objectively and subjectively establish whether they were genuine (written by the specimen author) or simulated (written by an imposter/forger). With the emergence of new computing technologies, additional objective examination techniques designed to determine the authenticity of questioned signatures became available. Although the opinions of Forensic Handwriting Examiners (FHEs) remain the most popular method of signature authenticity determinations, computer based techniques are attracting increasing interest within the forensic community. The question here is; which is better: man or machine? To address this question we focus on empirically comparing the performance of the two, on the same or similar material. The novelty of this work is that we have applied various state-of-the-art signature verification systems to questioned signature problems which had already been worked by FHEs and then performed a comparative analysis of the two.

Modeling Stability in On-line Signatures
Authors: Parziale Antonio , Fuschetto Salvatore G. , Marcelli Angelo
Published: January 2019

A novel definition of stability regions and a new method for detecting them from on-line signatures is introduced in this paper. Building upon handwriting generation and motor control studies, the stability regions is defined as the longest similar sequences of strokes between a pair of genuine signatures. The stability regions are then used to select the most stable signatures, as well as to estimate the extent to which these stability regions are encountered in both genuine and simulated (forged) signatures, thus modeling the signing habit of a subject. Experimental results on the SUSig database show that the proposed model can be effectively used for signature verification.

The Influence of Template Ageing on a Dynamic Signature Verification System
Authors: Putz-Leszczynska Joanna
Published: January 2019

This paper addresses template ageing in automatic signature verification systems. Handwritten signatures are a behavioral biometric sensitive to the passage of time. The experiments in this paper utilized a database that contains signature realizations captured in three sessions. The last session was captured seven years after the first one. The results presented in this paper show a potential risk of using an automatic handwriting verification system without including template ageing
