Authors: Das Prakash Kumar , Singh Debabrata , Panja Madan Mohan
Published: March 2019

In this work, authors propose some modifications Adomian decomposition method to get some accurate closed form approximate or exact solutions of Duffing- and Li´enard-type nonlinear ordinary differential equations.Results obtained by the revised scheme have been exploited subsequently to derive constraints among parameters to get the solutions to be bounded. The present scheme appears to be efficient and may be regarded as the confluence of apparently different methods for getting exact solutions for a variety of nonlinear ordinary differential equations appearing as mathematical models in several physical processes.

Authors: DAS TAPAS
Published: March 2019

We apply the Magnus and Fer perturbation methods to Jaynes Cummings Model (JCM) with linear time dependence and show that the perturbation methods yield results which are appreciably close to the results obtained by Wei-Norman method, leading to exact solution when the Hamiltonian under consideration is an element of su(2), thus making the perturbation methods important for Hamiltonians for which a method of exact solution is not available.
Individual Profiles of Psychological Capital in a Spanish Sample
Authors: Djourova Nia Plamenova , Rodríguez Isabel , Lorente-Prieto Laura
Published: March 2019

Psychological Capital (PsyCap) consists of hope, self-efficacy, resilience and optimism. It is usually assumed that individuals score similarly across these four components, however, there have been suggestions in the literature that in some cases, people can score high on some dimensions and low on others, and that it is necessary to explore the matter further (Dawkins, 2014). Hence, the main objective of this article is to explore if the relationship between the dimensions of PsyCap results in individual profiles; to see which sociodemographic characteristics they have, and how the profiles relate to job satisfaction and performance. The sample consists of 1752 employees from different companies in Spain. We used Latent Profile Analysis and the results revealed that a four-profile model is the best fit for our data, where Profile 1 was characterized by low self-efficacy and hope, and high resilience and optimism; Profile 2 by high self-efficacy and hope, and low resilience and optimism; Profile 3 by low self-efficacy and high hope, resilience and optimism; and Profile 4 by high scores on all PsyCap constructs. The majority of the sample was classified in Profile 4, showing support for the unitary structure of PsyCap. However, for some individuals scores differed across the four PsyCap dimensions. Furthermore, there were high-low and low-high configurations for hope and self-efficacy on the one hand, and resilience and optimism on the other. Lastly, our results emphasize the combination of hope and self-efficacy as important contributors to employee outcomes.

Authors: Chikwature Whatmore , E Chikwature
Published: March 2019

This research study sought to determine the role of women in the sustainable management of indigenous woodlands in Manicaland province using Marange communal lands as a point of reference. In this study three traditional leaders, three women’s groups and seventy community women were used as research subjects. Questionnaires were used to gather data from the local women from the three selected villages. Interviews were also used to collect information from traditional leaders and women’s group leaders. These interviews were important in complementing data collected through questionnaires. Field observations were also carried out to enrich the data collected through interviews and questionnaires. The study showed that while women played a vital role in the sustainable management of indigenous woodlands in Marange communal lands, they faced various constraints including greater workload at home with little time to pursue activities outside the family. Therefore the study recommends that since women are more intimately involved with the environment through their day to day activities like fuel wood collection, they should be given due recognition in decision making processes. Finally, it is also recommended that the land tenure system should be redesigned to cater for female heads of households.

Basis of using ultrasound elastography in diffuse and focal liver diseases
Authors: Morozova T. G. , Borsukov A. V.
Published: March 2019

Objective:to develop the basics of ultrasound elastography for diffuse and focal liver diseases.

Material and methods.180 patients were examined, including 102 (56.7%) men and 78 (43.3%) women. Patients were hospitalized in the gastroenterological and surgical departments: 100 (55.6%) patients with diffuse liver disease (DLD), 80 (44.4%) with focal liver pathology (FLP). All elastographic techniques were used; The liver biopsy served as the reference method (n = 169 (93.8%)).

Results.If a patient has steatohepatitis, it is recommended to begin research with transient elastography (TE), in hepatitis – with compression elastography (CE), according to the study, it is determined that shear wave elastography (SWE) is informative in all clinical forms of DLD. The terms of elastographic monitoring have been developed: upon admission, after 6, 9, 12 months. With dynamic observation of patients, elastographic techniques have a high diagnostic and prognostic value with stable and positive clinical laboratory and instrumental dynamics (liver biopsy – AUROC 0,882, DI 0.741–0.699, elastography – AUROC 0,991, DI 0.779–0.997). At FLP the results of SWE help in determining the “zone of interest” for the subsequent conduct of a morphological study, with the aim of establishing a diagnosis.

Conclusions.1. In the presence of a patient with steatohepatitis, it is recommended to begin research with TE, in hepatitis with CE, according to the results of the study, it is determined that SWE is informative in all clinical forms of DLD. 2. Dynamic elastographic monitoring in case of DLD should be performed at admission, after 6, 9 and 12 months, and then individually for each patient. 3. With dynamic observation of patients with DLD, elastographic techniques have a high diagnostic and prognostic value with stable and positive clinical laboratory and instrumental dynamics (liver biopsy – AUROC 0.882, DI 0.741–0.66, elastography – AUROC 0.991, DI 0.779–0.997). 4. It has been established that the results of all elastographic techniques can not be used as differential diagnostic tools, SWE helps in choosing a “zone of interest” for biopsy with subsequent verification of the diagnosis (AUROC 0.907 (95% DI 0.889–0.933)).

基于解析均匀化模型的蜂窝夹芯板静力弯曲分析
Authors: 赵 铁龙
Published: March 2019

本文基于精化锯齿层合板理论建立了蜂窝夹芯板静力弯曲模型。模型通过解析均匀化方法获取了蜂窝芯层的等效弹性参数，并因引入该方法而能够反映出由蜂窝高度改变引起的蜂窝等效模量变化对弯曲挠度产生的影响(蜂窝芯子的高度效应)。基于虚功原理推导了平衡方程和边界条件，并以受双向正弦载荷作用的四边简支板为例进行了算例分析。算例结果表明：当夹芯板跨厚比较小时，基于本文模型所预测的板弯曲刚度与传统单层板理论给出的结果基本一致。随着板的变薄，本文模型给出的结果明显小于一阶剪切板理论，略小于高阶剪切板理论；不受几何因素影响的蜂窝夹心板无量纲弯曲挠度先随蜂窝高度的增加逐渐增长，随后趋于稳定；蜂窝芯子高度效应在板跨厚比、蜂窝芯层厚度比例取较大值时明显。随着蜂窝芯层厚度比例的下降或板的变厚，高度效应逐渐减弱直至消失。

Authors: Cheredov V. N. , Petrakov A. E.
Published: March 2019

Study of the structure of optical crystals and defects in them is one of the most important problems in crystal physics, crystallography and material science. Nowadays, study of the nanostructures, including the linear defects in crystals is of particular importance. Defects, and first and foremost linear imperfections of the crystal structure, significantly reduce the operational physical properties of optical crystals. Analysis of the properties of those defects, their orientation in the crystal lattice, as well as developing of the methods for determination of the crystallographic orientation of linear defects are the most important in view of the possibility of improving the properties of optical crystals. A method for rapid determination of the crystallographic orientation of linear defects (dislocations, clusters, linearly extended bulk inclusions, etc.) in optical crystals is presented. The orientation of a linearly extended micropore in an isotropic optical transparent fluorite crystal was determined using an optical microscope. The readings of the scale of the eyepiece drum were recorded when rotating the crystal fixed in the crystal holder of the microscope. Corrections for the refraction of light in the bulk of the crystal were taken into account analytically. The crystallographic orientation of the microporous in a transparent fluorite crystal was studied in detail. Crystallographic indices of micropore orientation corresponded to [100]. We developed an efficient rapid procedure for determination of the orientation of internal linear defects (imperfections) in optically isotropic crystals using an optical microscope. The restrictions imposed on the angles of crystal rotation depending on the value of the refractive index are considered for the given method of determination.
Comparing the Effect of Nanomaterial and Traditional Fillers on the Asphalt Mixture Properties
Authors: Hamedi Gholam Hossein
Published: February 2019

Several parameters affect asphalt mix performance against loading and environmental conditions. Minor changes in the filler amount or type can cause obvious changes in the asphalt mixture properties. Accordingly, in this research attempts have been made to optimally make asphalt mixture strong against loading and environmental conditions by changing the type, size and percentage of filler used in asphalt mixture. In this line, the effect of two types of cement and nano-silica fillers in two different percentages was investigated and compared as an alternative for part of the main filler in asphalt mixture samples made by two types of limestone and granite aggregate. Cement filler by 2% and 4% of the aggregate mass as the alternative for part of the main filler is added to stone materials before mixing with binder, but nano-silica filler by 2% and4 % of weight of the binder as the alternative for part of the main filler is added to binder and a modified and homogeneous binder is produced using a high speed mixer. In the following, considering the optimum binder content for each mixture, resilient modulus tests were conducted to determine the strength performance against loading and indirect tensile strength ratio was used to determine moisture sensitivity of asphalt mixtures. Results obtained from resilient modulus tests show that the use of nano-silica and cement has been capable of favorably improving the resilient modulus of samples containing these two types of fillers. The improvement of the resilient modulus of samples containing nano-silica is very significant. Additionally, the studies conducted based on the indirect tensile strength ratio show that both types of alternative fillers, especially cement has been capable of desirably improve the strength of asphalt mixtures against moisture damage.
La conversion dans les pentecôtismes au Cameroun
Authors: Batibonak Sariette
Published: March 2019

Cette réflexion a pour objet la conversion en tant qu’incitation au recommencement dans la religiosité pentecôtiste au Cameroun. Fondé sur une approche anthropologique du religieux, cet article vise à ethnographier la conversion pentecôtiste présentée par les leaders religieux comme bouleversante et indexée par les critiques comme une sorte de « blanchiment » du parcours biographique des fidèles. À travers cet acte initial, les pentecôtistes ambitionnent des mutations et des métamorphoses au niveau individuel comme au niveau sociétal. Comment comprendre la conversion comme acte de recommencement chez les pentecôtistes ? Comment expliquer leur prétention transformatrice ? C’est en ces termes que se résume le questionnement de cette recherche in situ.
Départs volontaires, faux-départs, retours impossibles dans l’oeuvre de Louis-Philippe Dalembert
Authors: Cacchioli Emanuela
Published: March 2019

Cet article propose une analyse tripartite du thème du départ dans les romans de Dalembert. Départs volontaires, faux-départs et retours impossibles s’articulent tant dans la vie de ses personnages de fiction que dans l’Histoire avec la traversée de l’océan lors de la traite des esclaves. Nous nous intéresserons tout particulièrement à la récriture du voyage initiatique à l’œuvre dans L’Autre face de la mer, œuvre que nous pouvons définir comme « roman du départ » car il exploite le sujet sous différents aspects. Nous verrons que le voyage initiatique n’est que l’origine de tout départ et que chaque déplacement postérieur devient un écho de la traversée de l’océan des esclaves africains
Les préfaces des traducteurs des Anciens Canadiens: transformation du message
Authors: Hillinger Alexandra
Published: March 2019

En 1863, Philippe Aubert de Gaspé publie Les Anciens Canadiens, roman qui deviendra le premier succès commercial du territoire aujourd’hui désigné comme le Québec. Au cours de l’histoire, cette œuvre sera traduite vers l’anglais à trois reprises. Fait notable, les retraductions des Anciens Canadiens sont accompagnées de préfaces rédigées par les traducteurs. Dans sa préface, Charles G.D. Roberts, traducteur de la version anglaise publiée en 1890, vante les mérites de l’œuvre d’Aubert de Gaspé, en plus d’expliquer que le roman est d’intérêt pour les Canadiens Anglais, car il leur permet de mieux comprendre leurs compatriotes francophones. Notons, toutefois, que Roberts ne fait aucunement mention de la première traduction. De son côté, Jane Brierley, auteure de la dernière traduction (1996), prend elle-même l’initiative de produire une nouvelle version anglaise du roman. Dans sa préface, elle explique qu’une retraduction de l’ouvrage d’Aubert de Gaspé était nécessaire, car les deux traductions précédentes, dont elle offre l’analyse textuelle, n’étaient pas adéquates. Elle affirme également que, forte d’avoir traduit les deux autres ouvrages de Gaspé, elle a su développer pour cet auteur une voix anglaise appropriée. Ainsi, nous mettrons en lumière les notions clefs soulevées dans chacune des préfaces. À première vue, Roberts semble plutôt mettre l’accent sur l’importance historique de l’œuvre de Gaspé et l’intérêt qu’elle représente pour les anglophones, alors que Brierley, pour sa part, justifie la nécessité d’une retraduction. Il va sans dire qu’au su de leur lectorat potentiel, les deux traducteurs ont des préoccupations bien différentes.
La pratique du surtitrage en contexte minoritaire
Authors: Pridmore-Franz Milane
Published: March 2019

Depuis son essor au milieu des années 80, la pratique du surtitrage demeure une forme de traduction audiovisuelle peu explorée, malgré l’intérêt croissant qu’elle suscite chez certains traductologues et spécialistes. Si les études sur ce genre de traduction multidimensionnelle ou multisémiotique et ses enjeux sont encore à l’état embryonnaire,  la perception et les attitudes des divers publics concernant les surtitres sont peu connues de la part des chercheurs. Il va de soi que, pour assurer le succès d’un spectacle surtitré, on doit bien connaître son public cible, comme le requiert tout acte de traduction. Comment les surtitres pour le théâtre sont-ils perçus par le grand public? Comment les choix de traduction affectent-ils la réception d’une représentation théâtrale surtitrée? Ces questions sont d’autant plus importantes dans des contextes francophones minoritaires tels que les communautés francophones de l’Ouest canadien, où les publics des théâtres francophones comprennent des francophones bilingues, des anglophones (et francophiles) monolingues, ainsi que des apprenants de la langue. Dans le cadre plus large d’une étude de grande envergure sur la réception des surtitres effectuée à L’UniThéâtre, cet article sert d’analyse réflexive entreprise par la surtitreuse: elle y aborde ses procédés de surtitrage et examine l’efficacité de sa stratégie en tenant compte des enjeux sociolinguistiques et politico-culturels qui influent sur les conditions de réception dans de telles situations linguistiques minoritaires
Ailleurs, au Mexique : topographie géopoétique d’Ourania de J.-M.G. Le Clézio
Authors: Bouvet Rachel
Published: March 2019

Cet article examine la représentation de l’ailleurs à partir d’une perspective géopoétique et propose une analyse topographique du roman Ourania de J.M.G. Le Clézio. L’ailleurs n’y est pas pensé en termes d’énonciation ou à partir du genre viatique, comme cela se fait souvent, mais bien à partir des rapports entre littérature et géographie. La curiosité du narrateur, un géographe français parti faire des relevés pédologiques au Mexique, n’a d’égale que sa propension à passer d’un monde à un autre monde : du réel à l’imaginaire, de la terre au ciel en passant par un village utopique, « fait de songes ». Son discours, quant à lui, a pour effet d’inscrire le personnage dans la lignée des géographes et des aventuriers ayant la « passion du monde ». Pour connaître son parcours, en grande partie occulté, il est nécessaire de se pencher au-delà des frontières du récit et de s’intéresser à la carte et à l’itinéraire présentés en annexe. Ainsi, se met en place un exercice de topographie romanesque, qui met en évidence les échos entre toponymes, hydronymes, patronymes et prénoms. Un chassé-croisé marqué par l’intensification du rapport entre le lieu et l’écriture, par l’entremêlement du géographique et du linguistique.
Du “monstre-humain” au “monstre-objet” : l’évolution du monstre (in)visible dans Notre-Dame de Paris et À rebours
Authors: Patterson Jade
Published: March 2019

Au XIXᵉ siècle en France, les monstres sont plus que visibles ; ils occupent le devant de la scène. Ils sont présents dans des domaines aussi divers que la science (avec la tératologie —la première “science” des monstres), la politique, où se dessinent des évènements “monstrueux” signalant une rupture de la norme, et la foire, où les spectateurs paient pour voir des formes grotesques. En prenant les exemples de deux œuvres littéraires : Notre Dame de Paris (1831) de Victor Hugo et A rebours (1889) de Joris-Karl Huysmans, nous examinerons comment la production à grande échelle des monstres a cependant pour résultat la banalisation du monstre comme figure extraordinaire. Nous soutiendrons qu’il existe une évolution du “monstre-humain” romantique au “monstre-objet” décadent qui reflète la monstruosité morale du créateur lui-même : une métamorphose du visible à l’invisible. Cette notion prend racine dans le contexte d’une notion évolutive de la construction philosophique nature/artifice où s’inscrivent d’importantes avancées technologiques, telles que les machines-outils (destinées à construire les pièces de machines). Cela marque un changement dans les perceptions des rôles de l’homme et de la nature dans le champ de création. Le monstre évolue d’un être extraordinaire (semblable aux créatures de la foire) à un objet banal, facile à reproduire, qui reflète les peurs de la production de masse dans une société industrielle. Enfin, en abordant les enjeux de la monstruosité et de la visibilité, nous montrerons comment le monstre devient visible même dans la forme du texte littéraire du XIXᵉ siècle, avec la naissance d’un roman-monstre.

Inquiry into the use of digital technology in elementary music education
Authors: Kerslake Kirsten
Published: March 2019

Music education is an important part of a child’s elementary education. There are many types of new digital technologies that are appearing in our schools. Through inquiry research and the use of an online survey, in-person and email interviews,  I have attempted to discover what digital programs or tools are out there to assist with learning the various musical concepts in elementary music curriculum, as well as how digital technology in music curriculum is used to keep the children engaged in their learning. The findings led me to a conclusion that people believe that music education at an elementary level is important, has both pros and cons, and must be used in correspondence with traditional teaching methods.  Digital technology can be beneficial in music education if the teacher understands how to use it properly to promote active and engaged student learning.
The role of digital reading technologies in developing language and literacy skills
Authors: Lambrecht Rachel
Published: March 2019

EBooks and other forms of digital reading technology are becoming increasingly popular in classrooms due to their perceived ability to improve engagement and positively contribute to language and literacy skills. This research study seeks to answer the question: Can eBooks be utilized to help improve early literacy and language skills, and contribute to the engagement of readers?  In an effort to answer this question data was collected from an online survey created using Google Forms. This survey data was further analyzed through an interview process. The survey data retrieved provides a surface level understanding of the perceived value of digital reading technologies. The data retrieved from this study indicates that digital reading technologies are convenient and can increase the accessibility of reading materials, but that further research is necessary to determine the specific role of digital reading technologies in improving early literacy and language skills.
Assistive technology for reading and writing, and coping with anxiety
Authors: Parmelee Cassie
Published: March 2019

It seems that in the 21st century digital technology has evolved to help, assist, and support students with their learning. I wanted to research about anxiety in students and coping with their struggles in reading and writing because it connects with me on a personal level. I did not have the luxury to use the assistive technologies that are out there today. I wanted to find out the benefits and disadvantages of using assistive technologies with students that have anxiety. I believe researching this topic will help me in my future teaching practice because I will have gained more knowledge about my topic. To obtain some background knowledge about my topic, I had to do some research about anxiety in students and students who have difficulties in reading and writing. Through this background research I now have a better understanding about assistive technology and how it can help students. From my research findings, I learned that yes assistive technology can help students with anxiety and problems with reading and writing, but to not let the students become too dependent on the technology. I also found out to make sure the technology matches with the student because if not then the student will avoid using the technology and anxiety can increase. Another key take away from my findings was that I need to be knowledgeable about the assistive technologies I plan on using with students. If I do not have the knowledge it is not going to help a student who has certain learning needs.
Math learning disabilities and digital technology
Authors: Lin Sihan
Published: March 2019

This research study addressed the question that how could the educational technologies help students in learning mathematical concepts in elementary, and especially focused on students who have math learning disabilities. After gathering background information from several scholarly articles, I conducted an online survey and sent out to my education class as well as my friends. For further information, I interviewed my university math professor, and my current mentor teacher in person. There were a total of 15 participants attending my research projects which including 13 online survey participants, and two interviews. According to my investigation, the result showed that more than half of my survey participants never heard about math learning disabilities, and about half of them had used digital technologies in learning math concepts. This research project is important to my own learning as a teacher candidate because it reminded me the challenges of using digital technologies, and also provided me some strategies when teaching math with technologies in an elementary class.
