Public perceptions of pandemic viral threats and government policies can influence adherence to containment, delay, and mitigation policies such as physical distancing, hygienic practices, use of physical barriers, uptake of testing, contact tracing, and vaccination programs. The UK COVID-19 Public Experiences (COPE) study aims to identify determinants of health behaviour using the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation (COM-B) model using a longitudinal mixed-methods approach. Here, we provide a detailed description of the demographic and self-reported health characteristics of the COPE cohort at baseline assessment, an overview of data collected, and plans for follow-up of the cohort. The COPE baseline survey was completed by 11,113 UK adult residents (18+ years of age). Baseline data collection started on the 13thof March 2020 (10-days before the introduction of the first national COVID-19 lockdown in the UK) and finished on the 13thof April 2020. Participants were recruited via the HealthWise Wales (HWW) research registry and through social media snowballing and advertising (Facebook®, Twitter®, Instagram®). Participants were predominantly female (69%), over 50 years of age (68%), identified as white (98%), and were living with their partner (68%). A large proportion (67%) had a college/university level education, and half reported a pre-existing health condition (50%). Initial follow-up plans for the cohort included in-depth surveys at 3-months and 12-months after the first UK national lockdown to assess short and medium-term effects of the pandemic on health behaviour and subjective health and well-being. Additional consent will be sought from participants at follow-up for data linkage and surveys at 18 and 24-months after the initial UK national lockdown. A large non-random sample was recruited to the COPE cohort during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, which will enable longitudinal analysis of the determinants of health behaviour and changes in subjective health and well-being over the course of the pandemic.
Plasma SerpinA5 in conjunction with uterine artery pulsatility index and clinical risk factor for the early prediction of preeclampsia

Published: October 2021

Object

This study aimed to combine plasma protein SerpinA5 with uterine artery doppler ultrasound and clinical risk factor during the first trimester for prediction of preeclampsia.

Methods and materials

This study was a nested cohort study and was divided into the screening set and developing set. The plasma was collected during the first trimester (11+0–13+6 weeks), at the same time, UtA-PI was detected and recorded with four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound. These pregnancies were followed up until after delivery. The plasma proteins were examined using ultra-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Placental samples preserved after delivery were analysed by immunohistochemistry. Clinical risk factors were obtained from medical records or antenatal questionnaires. Upregulation or downregulation of SerpinA5 expression in TEV-1 cells was performed to investigate the role of SerpinA5 in trophoblasts invasion.

Results

We demonstrated that SerpinA5 levels were greater not only in preeclampsia placental tissue but also in plasma (both p<0.05), and we found that SerpinA5 may interfere with trophoblastic cell invasion by inhibiting MSP. SerpinA5 may be a potential predictor of preeclampsia. What is more, the sensitivity and specificity of predictive power were strengthened when plasma SerpinA5 was combined with UtA-PI and pre-pregnancy BMI & family history of PE for prediction of preeclampsia.

Conclusion

These findings showed that placenta-derived plasma SerpinA5 may be a novel biomarker for preeclampsia, which together with uterine artery Doppler ultrasound and clinical risk factor can more effectively predict preeclampsia.
Die tatsächliche Nutzung digitaler Assistenzsysteme in der Altenpflege
Authors: Vetter Miriam , Cerullo Laura
Published: October 2021

Miriam Vetter und Laura Cerullo sind in ihrem Beitrag der Frage nachgegangen, wie technische Assistenzsysteme innerhalb Deutschlands in der Altenpflege verbreitet sind. In ihrem Scoping Review haben sie relevante deutsch- und englischsprachige Literatur identifiziert und analysiert. Die Ergebnisse der Literaturrecherche deuten darauf hin, dass die Verbreitung von Assistenztechnologien in ambulanten sowie stationären Pflegesettings bislang wenig untersucht ist. Die bisherigen Untersuchungen weisen generell auf eine geringe Verbreitung hin, wobei hierbei Unterschiede hinsichtlich der Art der Technologie identifiziert werden können: während Dokumentationssysteme und einfache mechanische Assistenztechnologien eine größere Verbreitung aufzeigen, kommen Systeme wie Pflegeroboter im Pflegealltag bislang nur selten zum Einsatz.

Der bildsprachliche Kosmos im computeranimierten Kinofilm
Authors: Scheler Carolin
Published: October 2021

Carolin Scheler widmet sich in diesem Beitrag der Frage nach dem Ursprung der überwiegend einheitlichen Bilderordnung kommerzieller Computeranimationsfilme. Sie geht dabei von der Vermutung aus, dass sich die Bildwelten erst mit einem Verständnis für ihren Entstehungsprozess entschlüsseln lassen. Obwohl die Technologie, die hinter den Filmen steht, weder eine filmische Erzählweise noch einen visuellen Code vorgibt, lässt sich mithilfe des produktionsästhetischen Zugriffs eine Verwandtschaft der Computerbilder mit verschiedenen Ausprägungen einer in den USA verankerten Bildkultur ermitteln. Beispielhaft demonstriert Scheler diese Verwandtschaft in ihrem Beitrag anhand der US-amerikanischen Landschaftsmalerei des 19. Jahrhunderts.
Virtual Ethnographic Collections
Authors: Levinho José Carlos , Costa Oliveira Thiago da , Pereira Couto Ione Helena
Published: October 2021

This article deals with the process of implementing tools for the digital management of the ethnographic, audiovisual, and archival collections of the Museum of the Indian/FUNAI/Brazil. Focusing on a journey that began in 1996, the article discusses the various strategies used by this museum to offer adequate services to the Brazilian indigenous peoples, including them in the process of production, exhibition, description, and management of their heritage, and using this same heritage to enforce the protection of their fundamental rights inside the Brazilian state. The main argument defended is that the sustainability of documentation and management actions for ethnographic collections is more effective when digital management resources dialog with the social universe from which the cultural assets originated.
Imaginaries of Migration
Authors: López García Yolanda
Published: October 2021

How do Mexican migrants in Germany perceive themselves and their lives? Innovatively combining theories of interculturality and social imaginaries, Yolanda López García uses the anthropological method of life stories to investigate the understudied area of Mexican migration to Germany. She discusses areas such as quality of life as a motivation for migration, the role of banal nationalism in imaginaries, the dynamic subjective re-construction of Mexicanness, and the process of (imagined) »Germanisation«. Yolanda López García ultimately argues that individuals, as social agents, engage with and construct new emerging imaginaries, which may be viewed as important engines of social change.
Metamorphosis of Contact Lenses
Authors: Myers, OD Raymond I.
Published: October 2021

In 1971, soft contact lenses were a striking addition to the ophthalmic field that related functionally to the existing hard contact lenses by correctingrefractive error, but their properties and description were different so as to confound ophthalmic professionals in their introduction. Their inventor Otto Wichterle, a Czechoslovakian chemist and anticommunist dissident, developed the soft lens in the 1950-60s with little knowledge of the hard lens, but its potential was broad enough to break through the communist barriers and to spark international consumer interest and development.Challenges in manufacturing and developing soft contact lenses created a complex discipline around the cornea and lid physiology, and optics. This expanded greatly the scientific knowledge of the eye and adnexa to allow a soft, hydrophilic lens to remain symbiotic with the eye.
Challenges were met over the past 50 years with a change in nomenclature and in automated manufacturing closer to hard lenses, optical advancements, new materials and surface treatments, and lens disinfection methods. The science developing from the diminutive soft lens led to the incorporation of related biomedical and polymer science within the broader ophthalmic field that inordinately influenced optical advancements, instrumentation,and ocular pathology.
An extremum problem for the power moment of a convex polygon contained in a disc
Authors: Herburt Irmina , Sakata Shigehiro
Published: October 2021

In this paper, we investigate an extremum problem for the power moment of a convex polygon contained in a disc. Our result is a generalization of a classical theorem: among all convex n-gons contained in a given disc, the regular n-gon inscribed in the circle (up to rotation) uniquely maximizes the area functional. It also implies that, among all convex n-gons contained in a given disc and containing the center in those interiors, the regular n-gon inscribed in the circle (up to rotation) uniquely maximizes the mean of the length of the chords passing through the center of the disc.
Effect of Interaction Intensity on Alignment and EFL Learners’ Oral Production in the Reading-Speaking Integrated Continuation Task
Authors: Jiang Lin , Luo Yingxuan , Zhan Jianling
Published: October 2021

This study aims to uncover the relationship between interaction and alignment in a reading-speaking integrated continuation task, especially focusing on whether an increase in interaction intensity can lead to stronger alignment and further generate positive effects on L2 learning. To this end, 31 participants were asked to perform reading-speaking integrated continuation tasks under three different conditions featuring low, medium and high interaction intensity respectively. The results showed that 1) alignment existed in the reading-speaking integrated continuation task; 2) increasing interaction intensity generated stronger alignment at both linguistic and situational levels; 3) growing interaction intensity contributed to more coherent and accurate L2 oral production. These findings not only proved the workings of mind-body-world alignment, but also testified that increasing interaction intensity could bring about a stronger alignment effect (Wang, 2010), which then contributed to better L2 oral performance. These findings confirm again the role of interaction in L2 learning and suggest that alignment could possibly be a mediating factor that links interaction and L2 development. Pedagogical implications for teaching and learning L2 speaking are discussed.
Cesàro and Abel ergodic theorems for integrated semigroups
Authors: Barki Fatih
Published: October 2021

Let {S(t)}t
≥ 0 be an integrated semigroup of bounded linear operators on the Banach space 𝒳 into itself and let A be their generator. In this paper, we consider some necessary and sufficient conditions for the Cesàro mean and the Abel average of S(t) converge uniformly on ℬ(𝒳). More precisely, we show that the Abel average of S(t) converges uniformly if and only if 𝒳 = ℛ(A) ⊕ 𝒩(A), if and only if ℛ(Ak) is closed for some integer k and ∥ λ
2
R(λ, A) ∥ → 0 as λ→ 0+, where ℛ(A), 𝒩(A) and R(λ, A), be the range, the kernel, the resolvent function of A, respectively. Furthermore, we prove that if S(t)/t
2 → 0 as t → 1, then the Cesàro mean of S(t) converges uniformly if and only if the Abel average of S(t) is also converges uniformly.
Collaborative Authorship and Postmigration in Jonas Hassen Khemiri’s Novel Montecore
Authors: Ciaravolo Massimo
Published: October 2021

Montecore. En unik tiger (2006) stages its own making through the joint authorship of Kadir, a friend of Abbas’, and Jonas, a young writer and Abbas’ son. Their collaboration aims at a novel about Abbas, who migrated from Tunisia to Sweden, now a missing person. The interpretation of his life proves to be a conflicting ground for the co-authors because of their generational differences. This article proposes an analysis of Montecore building upon the notion of collaborative or multiple authorship (Stillinger 1991; Love 2002), and upon the discussion in Scandinavia and in Germany on contemporary migration and postmigration literature. Through a metafictional collaborative authorship – a so far neglected dimension in the study of Montecore – Jonas Hassen Khemiri depicts a young author’s ambivalent feelings towards his father and his story. Abbas has vanished from the family, but his special gift to Jonas, through Kadir’s mediation, deals with a linguistic talent that defies the rules of Swedish, showing the power of language to invent, and to imagine a different and less oppressive order.
Procliticization as a residual of second positioning: evidence from West Iranian languages
Authors: Mohammadirad Masoud , Samvelian Pollet
Published: October 2021

Person clitics show proclitic attachment in some West Iranian languages. Nevertheless, most of the literature has continued to focus on enclitics. This paper provides evidence that a good number of modern languages have developed proclitics, presumably from the middle Iranian period onward. Using synchronic data from modern languages gathered in the field, and contrasting it with the Middle Iranian period and current clausal second-position clitic systems, we develop some hypotheses regarding the rise of proclitics in modern languages. We argue that proclitic attachment has resulted from the reanalysis and/or the loss of clause-initial clitic hosting particles of the Middle Iranian period, and the actualization of the stray clitic as a proclitic on some host to the right. This trajectory from second position enclitics to proclitics, which is also attested in Old Romance and Uto-Aztecan, is argued to have been triggered by head attraction and rightward drift of clitics from clause-second position toward the verb in modern languages, giving rise to VP-based and Verb-based cliticization systems.
Dative experiencers with nominal predicates in Romanian: a synchronic and diachronic study
Authors: Ilioaia Mihaela , Van Peteghem Marleen
Published: October 2021

This article investigates the evolution of the Romanian pattern [dative clitic + ‘be’ + N] (cf.Mi-e foame, lit. me.dat=is hunger, ‘I’m hungry’) from the 16th century until present-day Romanian. This pattern traces back to the Latinmihi estconstruction (lit. me.datis), but is semantically more restricted than its Latin ancestor in that it can only express a physiological or psychological state. The aim of our study is to examine to what extent the dative experiencer behaves like a subject and the noun denoting a state like a predicate. We argue that, although certain subject diagnostics raise problems in Romanian, due to the obligatoriness of clitics and the scarcity of controlled infinitives, this pattern is clearly an instance of non-canonical subject marking with quirky dative case. The tendency toward expansion of this construction in present-day Romanian contradicts the hypothesis proposed in language typology according to which non-canonical subject marking tends to recede in favor of canonical marking in European languages.
Static locative expressions in Amharic
Authors: Asaye Gashaw Arutie
Published: October 2021

This paper describes the semantics of static locative expressions in Amharic, particularly the variety spoken in Godʒdʒam. The analysis shows that the semantic category of a site subsumed under Path is exclusively expressed by an adposition. The adpositions can be specific and general locatives. The specific locatives show a specific type of topological relation (for instance, verticality as intatʃtʃ‘below, under,’ horizontality as infit‘front,’ containment as inwɨst’‘in’) between figure and ground entities, but not the general locatives. Besides, static positional verbs encode the conflation of the fact of locatedness with a manner of the positioning of a figure. Based on Talmy’s Motion event typology, the present study has identified that Amharic uses a satellite-framed pattern in static locative constructions exclusively. Moreover, based on Ameka & Levinson’s typology of locative predication, Amharic can be classified under type Ia where a language uses a dummy verb in basic locative construction.

Objectives

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is rapidly spreading globally. Early diagnosis plays an essential role in controlling the infection. Therefore, early and accurate SARS-CoV-2 detection assays along with easy operation are required. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical performance of the Ampdirect™ 2019-nCoV Detection Kit (SHIMADZU assay), which does not require RNA purification steps, with that of the preexisting SARS-CoV-2 detection assays, which use a purified RNA template.

Methods

A total of 71 samples (65 nasopharyngeal specimens and 6 sputum specimens) were collected from 32 individuals, including patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and those with suspected infection. The sensitivity and kappa (κ) coefficient were assessed between the SARS-CoV-2 detection assays using the reference standard, which was defined as a true positive result by any one of the four SARS-CoV-2 detection assays.

Results

The overall sensitivity and κ coefficient of the SHIMADZU assay were 86.0% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 77.9–94.2) and 0.83 (95% CI: 0.69–0.96), respectively. In particular, among the 18 samples collected within 10 days from symptom onset, the sensitivity and κ coefficient of the SHIMADZU assay were 100% and 1.0, respectively.

Conclusions

Although a relatively small number of samples was evaluated, the SHIMADZU assay showed good analytical performance and as such would be highly useful for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. The test can be performed easily and quickly and has the potential for future applications in situations where a highly sensitive diagnosis is required.
Why hemolysis detection should be an integral part of any near-patient blood gas analysis
Authors: Möckel Martin , Luppa Peter B.
Published: October 2021

Blood gas analysis at or near the patient’s bedside is a common practice in acute medicine and plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of patient’s respiratory status, metabolites, electrolytes, co-oximetry and acid–base balance. Pre-analytical quality aspects of the specimens are getting more and more attention, including the presence of potential interferences. Central laboratories have implemented technologies to detect interferences such as hemolysis, lipidemia or hyperbilirubinemia in blood samples to ensure the highest possible quality in results provided to routine care. However, systematic detection for interference due to hemolysis is currently not in place for blood gas analysis at the point-of-care (POC). To apply hemolysis detection solutions at the central laboratory, but not at the POC for blood gas analysis, is a clear contradiction when novel hemolysis detecting technologies are available. The introduction of a system that systematically detects hemolysis in connection to POC blood gas analysis would be imperative to patient safety and costs associated with potential clinical malpractice (leading to wrong, missing and/or delayed treatment) and would also ensure better compliance to CLSI guidelines and ISO standards, and be beneficial for patient and staff.

Published: October 2021

Objectives

The aim of this study is to investigate the status of laboratory practice of organic acid (OA) analysis using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry in China.

Methods

A survey, investigating details of laboratory practice of OA analysis, was issued on the website of the National Center for Clinical Laboratories of China. Nationwide external quality assessment participating laboratories of OA assay were informed to participate in this survey.

Results

A total of 36 laboratories completed this survey. Most laboratories started OA analysis during 2016–2020. Most (100%) labs reported semi-quantitative results, in which 79.4% of labs adopted the form of the ratio of peak area of OA and quantitative internal standard. Rare labs reported quantitative results. Few labs released reports in three days, most in 5–7 days. The source of control materials varied, 64.5% of labs adapted self-made materials. A total of 43.8% of laboratories directly used reference intervals (RIs) from published literature, 43.8% of laboratories established RIs themselves, but 21.2% of laboratories reported they didn’t verify RIs.

Conclusions

Appropriate supervision for the organic acid assay is needed in the aspect of the turnaround time of reporting results, the establishment validation and verification of reference ranges, and the quantification of results.
Microstructural Examinations of Copper Antimony Alloys
Authors: Haubner R. , Strobl S.
Published: October 2021

Among other materials, fahlores were used in the Bronze Age copper ore smelting process. These contain, apart from sulfur, arsenic and antimony. Therefore, these elements can be found in Bronze Age copper casting ingots or artifacts. In order to study the behavior of Sb more closely, two copper alloys containing 10 and 30 wt. % Sb were melted and subjected to a metallographic examination.

On the one hand, microstructures with copper dendrites and homogeneous interdendritic areas primarily composed of intermetallic phase could be found. On the other hand, at higher Sb concentrations, first Cu3Sb precipitated which, in turn, transformed to Cu10Sb3 upon cooling. The crystals in these microstructures were characterized by numerous parallel cracks. No further phases were observed by XRD.
The Political Economy of Sectoral Credit Provisioning in India: An Empirical Analysis
Authors: Kohli Deepti
Published: October 2021

Electoral dynamics is believed to have a direct bearing on the scope of governmental control over the supply of credit to different economic sectors. This paper attempts to examine the impact of opportunistic electoral manipulations, ideological beliefs and political lobbying on the supply of agricultural and industrial credit across the Indian states. The findings indicate that more competitive elections are associated with increases in credit provision. An incumbent party with a more liberal ideology is found to provide greater average credit to agriculture relative to industry. Finally, an increase in the political contributions provided to an incumbent state government is found to entail greater industrial credit and lower agricultural credit, on an average.

Statt die Bedeutung der Religionsgeschichte für die Theoriebildung hervorzuheben, stellt der Artikel die umgekehrte Frage: Welchen Nutzen haben neuere theoretische Ansätze wie Postkolonialismus, Diskurstheorie und Religionsästhetik für die konkrete religionshistorische Arbeit? Der aus diesen Ansätzen resultierende Perspektivwechsel wird am Beispiel aztekischer Göttervorstellungen diskutiert, konkret an León-Portillas dominanter Rekonstruktion eines aztekischen philosophischen Monotheismus. Seine Interpretation wird postkolonial und diskursiv dekonstruiert und eine religionsästhetisch inspirierte Neuinterpretation eines Teilaspekts, dem GöttertitelYohualli Ehecatl, vorgeschlagen.
Trying to Sell Ketchup in a Salsa Bottle
Authors: Enríquez Mirasol
Published: October 2021

Conceptualized as a comedy that would explore culturally specific experiences of three Latina characters, the screenplay Papi Chulo underwent a tumultuous development process before becoming what audiences know as Chasing Papi (2003). Midway through development, changes in studio management led to significant changes in their approach to the project. Rather than depict cultural nuances of the U.S. Latina/o experience, an unusually large number of writers transformed the script to appeal to a panethnic form of Latina/o identity and a broader audience.

Marketed as “the first major studio comedy to reflect the Hispanic cultural experience in America,” the film’s credits include writer/producer Laura Angélica Simón, director Linda Mendoza, and associate producer Christy Haubegger. The film was a critical and financial disappointment, and this study illustrates the detrimental effects studio regime changes can have on the creative process, and the negative effects misunderstanding film authorship can have for Latina/os in the industry.
“I Know I Can’t Wait to See My Name in Lights”
Authors: Báez Jillian
Published: October 2021

This essay explores the production, content, and reception of Nickelodeon’s sitcom Taina (2000–01). Created by Maria Perez-Brown, a Latina pioneer in cable television, Taina ran for two seasons and foregrounded a Puerto Rican teenage girl at a performing arts high school in New York City. Guided by an intersectional feminist media studies analysis, I argue that Taina presages the rise of girls’ tween and teen shows on cable television and paved the way for contemporary representations of Latina girlhood in mainstream broadcast, cable, and streaming television. Taina is rarely cited in the history of Latina/o television or children’s television. This essay re-centers Taina as a critical intervention into children’s television and as a leading forerunner in Latina television production. I also highlight the labor of fans in shedding light on Taina’s obscured history, creating new ways of engagement with television of the past, and demanding new representations of Latinas.
Practicing Architecture under the Bamboo Ceiling
Authors: dubrow gail , In Collaboration with Rockrise Christina M. , Gregory Alyssa , Pawlicki Sarah
Published: October 2021

Iwahiko Tsumanuma (also known as Thomas S. Rockrise) was among the earliest immigrants from Japan to come to the United States to study architecture, and in the early twentieth century he established a successful practice, first in New York City and later in Asia. However, despite his training at Syracuse University in the conventional Beaux-Arts architectural vocabulary of the period, Tsumanuma found that the expectations of white patrons required that he design objects and spaces around Orientalist themes in the language of Japonisme. In Practicing Architecture under the Bamboo Ceiling: The Life and Work of Iwahiko Tsumanuma (Thomas S. Rockrise), 1878–1936, Gail Dubrow and collaborators Christina M. Rockrise, Alyssa Gregory, and Sarah Pawlicki make use of a previously unavailable archive of Tsumanuma's family papers to document the architect's life and career, presenting an in-depth case study of the multiple ways in which racism shaped the lives and experiences of Japanese immigrant architects in the United States in the early twentieth century. The methods used for this investigation, which included consulting family papers and collaborating with family descendants, provide a model for scholars seeking to better understand racism's formative role in shaping the history of the architectural profession.
Hyperglycemia Duration Impact On Anatomical Damage Level Of Osteoarthritic Articular Cartilage In Rat Models With Diabetes Mellitus Type 1
Authors: Njoto Ibrahim
Published: October 2021

Background — Diabetes mellitus caused alteration of chondrocytes morphology of superficial layer on osteoarthritic articular (OA) cartilage in an articular cartilage rat model. These results need to be analyzed in relation to hyperglycemia duration. Objective — This study evaluates the influence of hyperglycemia on microscopic anatomical damage progression in OA cartilage. Material and Methods — Thirty-five adult male rats were divided into seven groups: control group, three OA groups, and three OA groups with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DMT-1). For OA groups, the first, second, and third group was sacrificed on the third, fourth, and sixth week respectively after two months maintenance. OA with DMT-1 groups were performed anterior cruciate ligament transaction (ACLT) and were injected streptozotocin intraperitoneally to promote DMT-1 for one-month maintenance. DMT-1.1, DMT-1.2, and DMT-1.3 group was sacrificed on the third, fourth, and sixth week respectively after two months maintenance. The right knee cartilage was taken and processed for histopathology with hematoxylin and eosin staining, then analyzed using a Pritzker scale. Results — In OA group with DMT-1, hyperglycemia duration (6th>4th>3th weeks exposure) increased the level of damage in the OA cartilage compared with the OA group. Pritzker scale observe on deeper abrasiveness of the superficial articular layer, cartilage fissure reaching the middle layer, a more severe decrease in the chondrocytes columnar pattern, changing of matrix integrity, and many sclerotic conditions were provoked by increasing the hyperglycemia duration. Conclusion — Hyperglycemia duration influenced the damage level in the articular cartilage, increasing the progression of OA disease in animal models.
Potential of Energy Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to Become Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) in Bali Province, Indonesia
Authors: Suryawan I Wayan Koko , Wijaya I Made Wahyu , Sari Novi Kartika , Septiariva Iva Yenis , Zahra Nurulbaiti Listyendah
Published: October 2021

The generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) in Bali has various environmental impacts. One of the updates on sustainable waste processing is the RDF treatment plant processing. Before carrying out the processing, MSW characterization is needed because each region has a diverse composition. The processing of MSW into RDF provides benefits for achieving MSW reduction targets, renewable energy use, and the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. For this reason, this study was conducted to determine the potential of MSW in Bali as an alternative to renewable fuel and its potential to reduce GHG. MSW's potential calorific value as a raw material for RDF in Bali can reach 9.58 - 17.71 MJ/kg. The implementation of processing waste into RDF in pellets has shown a calorific value of ± 3904 - 4945 kkcal/kg. Implementing MSW processing into RDF in Bali can reduce GHG by 178 - 330 times compared to open dumping.
Violence on Women and Children: Background, Effects, and Solutions

Published: October 2021

Violence is any criminal conduct that may harm the victim. The violence occurred on a number of factors, including the factors economic, cultural, social, and legal. Today, violence is an awful lot going on in the community. See the rampant violence lately are influenced by the large number of people experiencing prolonged crisis due to oppression. The action also triggered by weak social control that is not followed by legal enforcement measures. There is also the violence done to women and children. Violence against women as a global problem, already fretting over every country in the world, not just the countries that are developing but also including developed countries which are said to be greatly appreciate and care about the human rights as United States of America. Indonesia as a country that is growing, it bore the title bad in the problem of human rights violations. Human rights violations are one of which violations of women's human rights. The women's human rights violations can be classed as acts of violence against women. Violence against women may occur anywhere (in a public place, in the workplace, the surroundings of family (household) and others. Can be done by anyone (parents, brothers or women and others and can occur at any time (day and night). In addition, the violence that occurs in children also resulted in mental decline. Children will feel depressed and prolonged trauma. It is certainly harmful for the child's mental and psychic condition. Violence in children usually occurs because a child who is misbehaving and not according towards parents so often parents furious and do acts of violence. This I will discuss to uncover cases of violence on women and children.

This book tells about a young man of noble descent who lived a simple life and lived among the poor during the struggle of Prince Antawirya or better known as Prince Diponegoro in Central Java. The Java War or De Java Oorlog (Netherlands) was a major and comprehensive war that lasted for five years (1825-1830) which took place in Java, between the Dutch colonial forces under the leadership of General De Kock against the indigenous population led by a Yogyakarta prince named Prince Diponegoro. or who in this novel is referred to as Kangjeng Sultan Ngabdulkamid. This war was one of the biggest battles experienced by the Dutch during colonizing the archipelago. Where the victims of this war reached two hundred thousand more dead. This war involved the entire Java region, so this war is called the Java War. However, this book does not explain in depth about the Javanese war and also does not explain the life or struggle of a hero like Prince Diponegoro, but this book tells the history from another person's point of view about the personal life of a young Dipanegaran laskar follower and the social conditions of society in the past. the Javanese battle.

Low cycle fatigue behavior of circumferentially notched specimens made of modified 9Cr–1Mo steel at elevated temperature

Published: October 2021

During service, notched designed components such as steam generators in the nuclear power plant usually experience fatigue damage at elevated temperatures, due to the repeated cyclic loadings during start-up and shut-down operations. Under such extreme conditions, the durability of these components is highly-affected. Besides, to assess the fatigue life of these components, a reliable determination of the local stress-strain at the notch-tips is needed. In this work, the maximum strains of circumferentially notched cylindrical specimens were calculated using the most commonly known analytical methods, namely Neuber's rule, modified Neuber's rule, Glinka's rule, and linear rule, with notch root radius of 1.25, 2.5, and 5 mm, made of modified 9Cr–1Mo steel at 550 °C, and subjected to nominal stress amplitudes of ±124.95, ±149.95, and ±174.95 MPa. The calculated local strains were compared to those obtained from Finite Element Analysis (FEA). It was found that all the analytical approximations provided unreliable local strains at the notch-tips, resulting in an overestimation or underestimation of the fatigue life. Therefore, a mathematical model that predicts the fatigue lives for 9Cr–1Mo steel at elevated temperature was proposed in terms of the applied stress amplitude and the fatigue stress concentration factor. The calculated fatigue lifetimes using the proposed model are found to be in good agreement with those obtained experimentally from the literature with relative errors, when the applied stress amplitude is ±149.95 MPa, are of 1.97%,–8.67%, and 13.54%, for notch root radii of 1.25, 2.5, and 5 mm, respectively.
Prediction of the epichlorohydrin derived cytotoxic substances from the eluent of poly(glycerol glycidyl ether) films

Glycerol-based epoxy networks have great potential for surface functionalization, providing anti-microbial and protein repellant function. However, the synthesis of glycerol glycidyl ether (GGE) monomer often requires excessive epichlorohydrin (ECH). ECH derived organochloride containing byproducts from monomer production maybe present in the eluent of the polymer networks prepared by cationic ring-opening polymerization. Here, the cytotoxicity analysis revealed cell damages in contact with the polyGGE eluent. The occurrence of organochlorides, which was predicted based on the data from high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, as confirmed by a constant chloride level in GGE and polyGGE, and by a specific peak of C–Cl in infrared spectra of GGE. The resulting polyGGE was densely crosslinked, which possibly contribute to the trapping of organochlorides. These results provide a valuable information for exploring the toxins leaching from polyGGE and propose a feasible strategy for minimizing the cytotoxicity via reducing their crosslink density.

Graphic abstract

The eluent of poly(glycerol glycidyl ether) (polyGGE) films impaired the viability and metabolic activity of L-929 cells due to the organochloride byproducts or epichlorohydrin precursors originating from the GGE monomer, which was predicted based on the data from high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC–ESI–MS) and confirmed by chloride content analysis and attenuated total reflection fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) spectroscopy.

Authors: Tiến Đỗ Văn , Rotter Csaba
Published: October 2021

To save energy consumption of Ethernet switches, IEEE has standardized a new energy-efficient operation for Ethernet links with a low-power state and transition mechanisms between the high-power state for transporting traffic and the low-power state.In this paper, we propose a queueing model with the Markov Modulated Compound Poisson Process that is able to characterize backbone packet traffic. We derive a closed-form solution for the stationary distribution of the proposed queueing model. We show that our model can capture an entire system where the transition times are constant.

Semantic matching finds certain types of semantic relationships among schema/data constructs. Examples include entity matching, entity linking, coreference resolution, schema/ontology matching, semantic text similarity, textual entailment, question answering, tagging, etc. Semantic matching has received much attention in the database, AI, KDD, Web, and Semantic Web communities. Recently, many works have also applied deep learning (DL) to semantic matching. In this paper we survey this fast growing topic. We define the semantic matching problem, categorize its variations into a taxonomy, and describe important applications. We describe DL solutions for important variations of semantic matching. Finally, we discuss future R\&D directions.
