Biodegradation of 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol by Cupriavidus sp. DT-1 in liquid and soil enviroments
Authors: Lu Peng , Liu Ai-min , Liu Hong-ming , Wang Jian-zhong
Published: December 2019

The bactrial strain Cupriavidus sp. DT-1 can degrade 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) and transform it into 2-hydroxypyridine (2-HP). This is a unique degradation pathway of TCP but incomplete. In the present study, strain DT-1 could degrade 2-HP at a high concentration 500 mg/L and use it as sole carbon source for growth. Three metabolites (nicotine blue, maleamic acid and fumaric acid) were detected in the medium and the complete degradation pathway of TCP was derived. Inoculation of TCP-contaminated soils with strain DT-1 resulted in a degradation rate 94.4% and 86.7% as compared to 20.4% and 28.4% in uninoculated soils, respectively. Fluorescent marker gene gfp was introduced into strain DT-1 and a new strain DT-1- gfp was created, viability test showed the strain could survive well in soils for more than 35 d. This finding suggests that strain DT-1 has potential for use in bioremediation of TCP-contaminated environments.

Evaluate call center performance using Big Data Analytics
Authors: Neustroev M. Yu.
Published: December 2019

An assessment of the quality of call centers (CCS) can be described as the process of listening to recorded conversations between an operator or technical support service and a customer to assess the effectiveness of the operator and its performance. The main problem with quality control is that managers or supervisors do not have time to listen to all records, and therefore only a few of the total number of saved conversation records are randomly selected. This leads to inaccurate measurements of performance, since most of the records of calls are not tapped. This article presents a distributed call monitoring system to evaluate all recorded calls using multiple quality criteria. In the proposed system, we analyze a large number of call records using the popular Hadoop MapReduce platform, and using text algorithms such as cosine transformation and N-gram. Lists of slang words were also integrated into the monitoring system. Empirical call records are used to demonstrate the performance of the proposed call monitoring system.

Evaluation of the economic effectiveness of investments in commercial real estate using the switch option
Authors: Uryniak Marek
Published: December 2019

Deciding whether an investment should be made or not requires an evaluation of the investment’s effectiveness. The choice of evaluation methods is related to the basic objective conditioning the implementation of the investment project. It often happens that the conditions in which a specific investment has been formulated change and so does the basis for its implementation, and it is necessary to adapt it to the new conditions. These new conditions could be recognized during the exploitation of the project so it is hard to take them into consideration at the stage of planning. The paper aims to evaluate the investments in commercial real estate with the option of alternative way of usage. This evaluation was carried out using the classical (discounted) methods of economic efficiency of investments and real options. Two groups of pricing real options models were used in the study: binomial models and continuous-time models. Results based on varied valuation methods lead to different conclusions. Unlike the discount methods, the real option approach allows valuing the project flexibility (which cannot be valued by classical methods). This value of flexibility in certain conditions indicates what should be the path of development of the project related with the transformation of commercial real estate for other purposes.

A questão prende-se com a aplicação efetiva das regras da UE como uma vertente importante para os europeus que afeta, inelutavelmente, a sua vida diária. O problema nem sempre é a ausência de legislação da UE, mas sim o facto de nem sempre essa legislação ser aplicada de forma eficaz. Foi desenhada uma abordagem com especial enfoque na questão da vertente democrática do processo legislativo europeu e a forma de os cidadãos a garantirem que o direito da União é aplicado de forma efetiva.
EDUCAÇÃO PARA A CIDADANIA GLOBAL NO BRASIL E A PARTICIPAÇÃO DO IMIGRANTE
Authors: Cabral Guilherme Perez
Published: December 2019

No cenário mundial globalizado, a construção da cidadania demanda sua compreensão para além do Estado soberano, incorporando, em seu conteúdo, outros povos e culturas. Debate-se, hoje, a cidadania global, oportunidade para repensar a cidadania no Brasil e a educação para sua efetivação, lidando com novos sujeitos de direito, com destaque, aqui, ao imigrante. O artigo debruça-se sobre a educação para a cidadania global (ECG), valendo-se de dois textos sobre o tema, elaborados pela UNESCO, no âmbito da cooperação internacional para o desenvolvimento social: “preparando alunos para os desafios do Século XXI” (2015) e “tópicos e objetivos de aprendizagem” (2016). Analisa-os em sua aplicação no contexto brasileiro, refletindo, especificamente, sobre a participação, em seu conteúdo normativo, da figura do imigrante. Por meio da análise de conteúdo dos textos citados complementada pela revisão bibliográfica, começa apresentando conceitos centrais da ECG; depois, reflete sobre o contexto fático e jurídico brasileiro, em termos cidadania e sua aprendizagem, bem como sobre o desafio da inclusão do imigrante; finalmente, a ECG, é analisada em duas diretrizes: o direito à educação do imigrante e a contribuição dele na construção enriquecida da cidadania. Defende-se que, embora a cidadania constitua uma ideia pobre de sentidos no Brasil, cabe o debate sobre a ECG. Para tanto, a participação do imigrante, trazendo consigo seus valores, contextos e diferenças, é essencial.

Published: December 2019

Esta pesquisa objetiva analisar os fatores inibidores e propulsores da reincidência criminal nos discursos da sociedade civil e dos apenados reincidentes da Penitenciaria Padrão Regional de Campina Grande-PB. Para tanto, foram adotados os seguintes procedimentos: caracterização do ambiente de estudo; levantamento documental; aplicação de questionários. No que se refere à percepção do apenado, foram destacados como propulsores: condições do presídio, convívio com criminosos, falta de emprego, falta de políticas do governo, dependência e tráfico de drogas, nenhuma condição financeira, falta de apoio da sociedade, preconceito e revolta pela lentidão do processo. Já como fatores inibidores, estes ressaltaram: relação familiar, possibilidade de emprego, sentimento de insegurança física e mental, inimizades dentro do presídio, situação de encarceramento e condição do presídio. Quando comparado os discursos destes sujeitos com os da sociedade civil, coincidem como propulsores: o preconceito, a falta de emprego, a dependência de substâncias psicoativas, as políticas de ressocialização, as condições do presídio e o convívio com outros criminosos. Vale ressaltar que as características pessoais do apenado, a ausência de Deus e de perspectivas foram propulsores indicados apenas pela sociedade civil. No que tange aos aspectos inibidores, o único elemento coincidente entre os dois discursos foi à possibilidade de emprego.
OS RUMOS QUE A REFORMA TRABALHISTA TOMARÁ PARA RESSIGNIFICAR O QUE SE (RE)CONHECE COMO TRABALHO: ENTRE POSSIBILIDADES DISCURSIVAS E PALAVRAS RETÓRICAS
Authors: Engelmann Wilson , Wünsch Guilherme
Published: December 2019

Este artigo pretende situar a reforma da legislação do trabalho no cenário da constitucionalização do Direito Privado. Por conta deste movimento, se buscará estudar os reflexos da Constituição do Brasil de 1988, ao inaugurar as bases do Estado Democrático de Direito, que procurou, através da valorização da livre iniciativa, implementar um sistema econômico capitalista, ao mesmo tempo em que consagrou, em mais de uma oportunidade, a valorização do trabalho humano. Em outras palavras, a ordem econômica social brasileira possui pretensões árduas de serem concretizadas, já que esta tem por objetivo conjugar ideias que se encontram em polos opostos, sendo, portanto, tendentes ao afastamento mútuo. Considerando este cenário, os autores farão a análise das possibilidades trazidas pelos pontos cardeais da reforma da legislação trabalhista, que são: flexibilização, geração de empregos, inovação e autonomia, observando as consequências previsíveis para o mercado e o meio ambiente laboral brasileiro.

PRINCÍPIO DEMOCRÁTICO E ADMINISTRAÇÃO PÚBLICA DEMOCRÁTICA EM TEMPOS DE CIBERCIDADANIA
Authors: De Macedo Caio Sperandeo
Published: December 2019

: O conceito dinâmico do princípio democrático na Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 espraia seus efeitos axiológicos para outras prescrições normativas que enaltecem a participação do cidadão na administração pública para exigir dos órgãos oficiais que a veiculação de informações e dados de interesse particular, de interesse coletivo ou de interesse público em geral sejam disponibilizados pela Internet a fim de permitir não somente acessibilidade à informação, mas, também, conhecimento funcional e controle dos atos praticados por quem exerce poderes em nome do Estado. Alertar que embora a incorporação das novas tecnologias da informação e da comunicação à infraestrutura seja indispensável à modernização do Estado contemporâneo, revela-se fundamental no caso brasileiro fomentar os mecanismos de participação democrática através do sistema educacional a fim de superar a falta de confiança da sociedade na administração pública.

Authors: Coletta Carolina , Berlato Heliani
Published: December 2019

O artigo busca compreender se o trabalho realizado pelo professor com deficientes intelectuais pode estar associado à síndrome de burnout. Tais profissionais estão mais suscetíveis a sofrerem exaustão emocional, despersonalização e menor realização pessoal – dimensões da síndrome – devido ao trabalho realizado com envolvimento intenso e prolongado com deficientes intelectuais. Foram realizadas observações diretas em uma unidade da Associação de Pais e Amigos dos Excepcionais (APAE) no estado de São Paulo, além de entrevistas semiestruturadas com educadores especiais, seguida de análise de discurso. A análise não indica manifestações de despersonalização, porém, há indícios de realização pessoal e exaustão emocional. Observa-se que a exaustão emocional se relaciona com a necessidade de maior auxílio da equipe de trabalho e destaca-se que o adoecimento estrutural da instituição pode gerar condições para a síndrome de burnout, afetando o desenvolvimento e, consequentemente, a inclusão das pessoas atendidas por tal instituição.

Role of PI3K/AKT/mTOR Pathway Associated Oxidative Stress and Cardiac Dysfunction in Takotsubo Syndrome
Authors: Mao Shan , Luo Xianghong , Li Yu , He Chaorong , Huang Fuhua , Su Cunhua
Published: December 2019

Introduction:

Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a stress-induced cardiomyopathy, but the
accurate cause of this syndrome is still unknown.

Methods:

β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (ISO) is used to establish the TTS rats model. TTS
rats were treated with or without LY294002 or Rapamycin. The rat cardiomyoblast cell line H9C2
was subjected to infect with constitutively active Akt (myr-Akt) or dominant-negative mutant Akt
(dn-Akt) and then, treated with ISO. Cell apoptosis was assessed using the Bax/ Bcl-2 ratio. In addition,
reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured using dihydroethidium (DHE). Mitochondrial
superoxide generation and membrane potential were assayed by MitoSOX and JC-1
fluorescence intensity.

Results:

ISO might induce the erratic acute cardiac dysfunction and overexpression of
PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Moreover, it also increased the oxidative stress and apoptosis in TTS rats. The
Akt inhibitor significantly reversed the cardiac injury effect, which triggered by ISO treatment. In
H9C2 cells, the inhibition of Akt provides a protective role against ISO-induced injury by reducing
oxidative stress, apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Conclusion:

This study provided new insight into the protective effects of myocardial dysfunction
in TTS rats via chronic inhibition of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR expression, which could reduce mitochondrial
ROS and oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitor could be a
therapeutic target to treat cardiovascular dysfunction induced by stress cardiomyopathy.

Published: December 2019

Background:

Remote authentication in current networks such as IoT that connects many end-devices of low capacity must be light, accurate and scalable without threaten security. In general, biometrics is the most reliable way to authenticate users because of its efficient results in many applications.

Objective:

The biometric data is expressed by a feature vector that should be extracted and secured by reliable techniques. This paper proposes a suitable extraction and encryption scheme in the aim to make the authentication light, accurate, scalable and secure.

Method:

As extraction technique, principle component analysis with a nonlinear block average quantization is used to reduce the feature vector length in the aim to increase the rapidity and the scalability. As encryption technique, the fuzzy commitment and the fuzzy vault with Hamming and Reed-Solomon codes are used in to increase security. These cryptosystems are tested with multi-biometric modalities to make the validation more credible.

Results:

Experimental results are analyzed, validated and compared to other works according to
several conventional and new recognition rates. Analysis is also done in terms of computation time
to validate the lightness of our findings. It is shown that the proposed scheme finds a compromise
between the coveted features.

Conclusion:

Our biometric cryptosystems ensure a secure, light, precise and scalable remote authentication. These properties can be achieved by using PCA technique with nonlinear coefficient quantization and fuzzy schemes with the appropriate correcting-code.

Published: December 2019

Background:

Planning and development of urban areas to meet the human developmental
requirements is an ongoing process across the globe. This, in turn, requires continuous
mapping of urban developmental patterns. Remote sensing and image processing techniques have
greatly facilitated the study of urban developmental patterns by mapping urban areas.

Objectives:

The objective of the paper is to carry out the object based classification in urban environments
by using fusion techniques on multisensory data to classify natural and man-made objects.
Multisensory data fusion using spectral and spatial features is done to improve the classification
accuracy.

Methods:

In our research, the performance of the proposed framework has been verified via investigating
the multistage feature level fusion. Spatial and spectral features are explored using feature
level fusion between multisensory data and then the database is classified using linear SVM classifier.
The individual probabilities (confidence measures) from all such pair of binary SVMs are
combined to uniquely represent the object feature to one of the classes. After summing up all the
probabilities the class with highest probability value represent the object through decision level fusion.

Results:

The results explored spatial and spectral features in a unique way using connected component
analysis. Also, the improvement in classification accuracy has been achieved.

Conclusions:

The results reveal that the overall accuracies of SVM classifier are in the range of
53% to 90% for various classes which is improved to 96-98% by majority voting rule.
Improvements in energy efficiency and the potential use of hydrogen fuel cells in railway transport
Authors: Lapidus Boris M.
Published: December 2019

This article presents the value of further increase of the energy efficiency in railway transport in combination with transition to the non-standard sources of energy. This is done within the paradigm of sustainable development and decarbonization in the global economy and by also taking into account the objectives stated in the document “Global perspective of railway transport development until 2050.” Hydrogen fuel cells, which are being studied by the Technical and Scientific Council of the JSC “RZD”, have demonstrated to be the most beneficial. The global trends of commercial use of fuel cells for transport are based on the unique properties of hydrogen as a fuel: high energy efficiency, ecological safety, and capability to be used without electric grids. Taking into account technological and ecological value, the transition from diesel traction to hydrogen fuel cell traction is justified and can be evaluated as a step of evolution that is as valuable as the transition from steam traction to diesel traction. Empirical proof is available that hydrogen is not hazardous to handle with properly designed equipment. The potential of the Russian science allows fulfilling appropriate research and development. We have taken into account that the required scientific and technological competences are available in different scientific centers and their effective integration is required. The conclusion states that the required conditions exist for introduction of the hydrogen fuel cells to the rolling stock in Russia. Although manufacturing of the critical fuel cells is not currently available in the Russian Federation, it can be arranged if demand is sufficient. This will require the collaboration of customers and scientific investigators in the project development of electric rolling stock in which hydrogen fuel cells can be used.

Currently, the wheel flange limiting wear is the main reason of the railroad wheels trueing. In order to enhance the wear resistance of the wheels to the required level, composition of their surface shall be changed, which is proposed to do by the method of laser surface modification introducing spherical particles of tungsten monocarbide with diameter from 50 to 150 μm. It was found out that introduction of the said particles into steel, which composition corresponds to grade 2 as per GOST 398-2010, results in reduction of microhardness of matrix metal formed on the composite layer surface as long as the content of tungsten monocarbide particles is increased. This phenomenon shall be probably connected with the change of chemical composition and stress-strain state of metal. Examination of wear resistance using roller samples demonstrated that growth of the volumetric fraction of reinforcing particles significantly increases the wear resistance. Laser heat processing of the surface without introducing the particles results in the wear resistance increase too. Wear and tear of the counter rollers cut from the rail operated in pair with the reinforced rollers cut from the tread band is less than in the pair with untreated rollers. Introduction of reinforcing particles is much more important than matrix hardening for increasing the wear resistance. It is demonstrated that cross-crack defects can be formed in modified layers, which quantity depends on the volumetric fraction of reinforcing particles. When content of tungsten monocarbide is less than 10%, cracks are not observed. According to the totality of properties, the best content of reinforcing particles shall amount from 8 to 10% of the volume.
Reduction of electric power losses by the reactive power compensation unit at the point of AC electric traction network sectioning
Authors: German Leonid A. , Serebryakov Aleksander S.
Published: December 2019

Changes of electric traction network with regulated and not-regulated reactive power compensation units (CU) are required due to switching on the reactive power static generators at the AC electric traction network sectioning points the specifying calculations of the reactive power. The method of calculation of power losses in the traction network with regulated and not-regulated cross capacity compensation units at the sectioning point was developed. The main positive effect of CU at the sectioning point is increasing of the carrying capacity of the railroad sections. However, calculation of CU effectiveness for reduction of electric power losses, as well as calculation of continuously controlled CU requires appropriate calculations. It is demonstrated that CU effectiveness at the sectioning points of reactive power compensation is reduced in connection with distribution of the draft load; CU regulation effectiveness is also reduced as a response to increase of the carrying capacity of the railroad section, which allows assessing the proposed calculation formulae. Presented examples of calculation for the actual baseline data demonstrate that full losses in the traction network (assumed as 100%) can be reduced by using of CU of the sectioning point up to 21% maximum with continuously controlled units and up to 13.4% with uncontrolled CU. As automatics of the reactive power static generator is designed for increasing the carrying capacity of the railroad, its operation frequently complies with the reactive power overcompensation regime when losses in the traction network are increased.
