The Integrated Spatial Pattern of Child Mortality during the 2012–2016 Drought in La Guajira, Colombia
Authors: Contreras Diana
Published: December 2019

The El Niño phenomenon in 2012 triggered a drought in La Guajira, Colombia that extended until 2016. In this period, the average child mortality rate in the area reached 23.4 out of 1000. The aim of this paper is to identify the integrated spatial pattern (ISP) of a single indicator in this case; child mortality. At the same time, the ISP identifies causes and priority areas for action. The socio-economic vulnerability (SEV) variables and spatial indicators related to child mortality were selected from the literature review and through meetings, workshops, and interviews with the affected community during fieldwork. Using correlation analysis and stepwise regression, the SEV variables with more accountability in child mortality during the drought were identified: Households with a monthly income of less than 100 USD, the number of people older than 65, and the number of people younger than 5 years old. Allocating weights to the SEV variables according to their degree of accountability in child mortality, its ISP has been identified. The far north of La Guajira was detected as the area most affected by child mortality and was, therefore, the priority zone for implementing actions focused on generating new sources of income.
The Impact of Interest Coverage Ratio on Value Relevance of Reported Earnings: Evidence from South Korea
Authors: Ji Hyunmi
Published: December 2019

This study examined the usefulness of the cash-based interest coverage ratio (CICR). It also verified the usefulness of accrual-based interest coverage ratio (AICR), which is used as a criterion for exiting insolvent companies. This paper analyzed whether the value relevance of earnings to stock price differs according to various interest coverage ratios. The CICR is measured by dividing the cash generated from operations by the interest payments. AICR is measured by operating income divided by interest expenses. The research model for the hypothesis test of this study is based on the Ohlson model, which has been used for the test of stock value relevance in many previous studies. As a result of the empirical analysis, the CICR is used as useful information by the investors in the capital market. CICR is used as useful information in the capital market as an indicator of sustainability of profits. This study suggests that supervisors and financial institutions can make rational decision-making if they consider AICR and CICR as criteria for exiting insolvent companies. The contribution of this study was to suggest that the CICR can be a useful indicator for determining whether a company is insolvent due to its relatively low forecast error and high predictability.
Automatic Defect Inspection for Coated Eyeglass Based on Symmetrized Energy Analysis of Color Channels

Published: December 2019

Nowadays, eyeglassesare used for vision correction as well as in the fashion industry. Eyeglasses have become more expensive and the eyewear industry has grown rapidly, thereby requiring the development of advanced coating technologies. However, defect detection by visual inspection in the manufacturing process of eyeglass coatings is difficult. To solve this problem, we propose the coated eyeglass defect detection system framework based on machine vision for real-time inspection. First, we locate and extract regions of interest (ROI) ofthe coated eyeglass by adopting cross-projection based on symmetrizedenergy analysis. Next, we propose an efficient method based on the symmetrized energy analysis of color channelsto enhance defectsin each color channel of the ROI of the coated eyeglass. Then, we adoptsymmetrized cross-projection energy analysis for locating defective areas inside the ROI of the coated eyeglass. Finally, we compare the defect detection resultsfor the coated eyeglass with the standard manufacturingquality. An experiment is conducted using real data collected froma Taiwanese eyeglass factory to validate the performance of the proposed framework. This framework achieves a 100% defect detection rate, demonstrating that it is valid and useful for inspecting coated eyeglasses in industries.
Documenting a Century of Coastline Change along Central California and Associated Challenges: From the Qualitative to the Quantitative
Authors: Griggs Gary , Davar Lida , Reguero Borja G.
Published: December 2019

Wave erosion has moved coastal cliffs and bluffs landward over the centuries. Now climate change-induced sea-level rise (SLR) and the changes in wave action are accelerating coastline retreat around the world. Documenting the erosion of cliffed coasts and projecting the rate of coastline retreat under future SLR scenarios are more challenging than historical and future shoreline change studies along low-lying sandy beaches. The objective of this research was to study coastal erosion of the West Cliff Drive area in Santa Cruz along the Central California Coast and identify the challenges in coastline change analysis. We investigated the geological history, geomorphic differences, and documented cliff retreat to assess coastal erosion qualitatively. We also conducted a quantitative assessment of cliff retreat through extracting and analyzing the coastline position at three different times (1953, 1975, and 2018). The results showed that the total retreat of the West Cliff Drive coastline over 65 years ranges from 0.3 to 32 m, and the maximum cliff retreat rate was 0.5 m/year. Geometric errors, the complex profiles of coastal cliffs, and irregularities in the processes of coastal erosion, including the undercutting of the base of the cliff and formation of caves, were some of the identified challenges in documenting historical coastline retreat. These can each increase the uncertainty of calculated retreat rates. Reducing the uncertainties in retreat rates is an essential initial step in projecting cliff and bluff retreat under future SLR more accurately and in developing a practical adaptive management plan to cope with the impacts of coastline change along this highly populated edge.
An Assessment on Permeability and Grout Take of Limestone: A Case Study at Mut Dam, Karaman, Turkey
Authors: Kayabasi Ali , Gokceoglu Candan
Published: December 2019

The main purposes of the present study are to evaluate pilot grouting and to develop regression equations for prediction of grout intake. There are no permeability problems with the sandstone-siltstone-claystone alternations and basement clayey limestone at the dam site. Karstic limestone block is permeable due to karstification and heavy discontinuities. For the purpose of the study, Q system, geological strength index (GSI), secondary permeability index (SPI), joint spacing (JSP), joint apertures (Ap), Lugeon (Lu), and the permeability coefficient (k) were determined. Karstic limestone block rock mass properties correlated with grouting material amount. A series of simple and multiple nonlinear regression analyses was performed between grout take material amount (Gt) and average values of these rock mass properties. Significant determination coefficients were determined. Prediction capacity of the empirical equations were also examined with root mean square error (RMSE), values account for (VAF), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and prediction error evaluations. Considering simple regression analyses, the equation derived with Gt-SPI gives the best performance. The best prediction is determined with the equation derived with rock quality designation values (RQD), SPI, and joint aperture as input parameters with the multiple nonlinear regression analysis, in addition to this, other empirical equations also provide acceptable results.
Maize Evapotranspiration Estimation Using Penman-Monteith Equation and Modeling the Bulk Canopy Resistance
Authors: Meraz-Maldonado Nora , Flores-Magdaleno Héctor
Published: December 2019

Some techniques, such as the Katerji and Perrier approach, estimate the bulk canopy resistance (rc) as a function of meteorological variables and then calculate the hourly evapotranspiration using the Penman–Monteith equation, so that traditional crop coefficients are not needed. As far as we know, there are no published studies regarding using this method for a maize crop. The objective of this study was to calibrate and validate the canopy resistance for an irrigated continuous maize crop in the Midwestern United States (US). In addition, we determined the effect of derivation year, bowen ratio, and the extent of canopy. In this study we derive empirical coefficients necessary to estimate rc for maize, five years (2001–2005) were considered. A split-sample approach was taken, in which each year’s data was taken as a potential calibration data set and validation was accomplished while using the other four years of data. We grouped the data by green leaf area index (GLAI) and the Bowen ratio (β) by parsing the data into a 3 × 3 grouping: LAI (≥2, ≥3, and ≥4) and |β| (≤0.1, ≤0.2, and ≤0.3). The best fit data indicated reasonably good results for all nine groupings, so that the calibration coefficients derived for the conditions LAI ≥ 2 and |β| ≤ 0.3 were taken in light of the longer span associated with LAI ≥ 2 and the larger number of hours. For the calibrations in this subgroup, the results indicate that the annual empirical coefficients for rc are nearly the same and equally effective, regardless of the year used for calibration. Our validation included all the daytime hours regardless of β. Thus, it was concluded that the calibration at our site was independent of the derivation year. Knowledge of the Bowen ratio was useful in calibration, but accurate ET estimates (validation) can be obtained without knowledge of the Bowen ratio. Validation resulted in hourly ET estimates for irrigated maize that explained 83% to 86% of the variation in measured ET with an accuracy of ± 0.2 mm.
Éléments traces associés aux kaolinites des Charentes
Authors: Mosser Christine
Published: December 2019

<2 µm fractions, made of more than 85 % kaolinite have been extracted from the Charente kaolinite quarries (France). The argillaceous fraction is accompanied at Montroux by centimetric nodules of pyrite, marcasite and chalcopyrite, and at St. Georges by centimetric nodules whose shell is made of haematite and goethite and whose core is made of iron and lead sulfides or sulfates, baryte and gibbsite.

Major and trace element analyses including Li are presented for all < 2 µm fractions. The major element contents do not vary very much from one sample to the other, SiO2 and Al2O3 are those of almost pure kaolinite. However, the St. Georges < 2 µm fractions contain low K2O amounts (0.73 %) due to illite and excess of SiO2 due to some quartz grains. In contrast, the amounts of trace elements vary. The higher Cr, Ni, Rb contents of some St. Georges < 2 µm fractions are related to illite. Sr, Ba, Zn, Cu, V and Pb contents are related to sulfides of sulfates. The Li values are very high for all the samples (139-620 ppm) ; this element is probably contained in the kaolinite.

The Li-rich kaolinite were formed and herited from weathered and perphaps hydrothermally altered leucogranites (Li > 800 ppm) which are well developed in the Massif Central. The variation of the Li content of the < 2 µm fractions may be of different origins and sources. Along with Ba, Pb, Zn and Cu, iron during diagenesis, formed sulfide nodules in a reduced sedimentation environment, which results in the formation of cleaned and whitened kaolinites of low Fe2O3 contents (0.5-1.5 %).
Les kaolinites des Argiles de Provins : géologie et cristallinité
Authors: Thiry Médard
Published: December 2019

Dans le Bassin de Paris sont exploitées des argiles kaoliniques utilisées dans l'industrie céramique et réfractaire. Ce sont des dépôts argilo-sableux disposés en couches régulières, recoupées par des chenaux sableux. Les kaolinites sont des kaolinites désordonnées et des fire-clays, dont la cristallinité varie : (1) il y a augmentation de la cristallinité en allant des argiles pures de la base aux argiles plus quartzeuses du sommet, (2) et diminution générale de la cristallinité en allant du Sud-Ouest vers le Nord-Est du bassin d'exploitation. La faible cristallinité et la finesse des particules donnent à ces argiles leurs propriétés de plasticité et de résistance mécanique en cru.
Possibilités d'emploi des kaolins des Charentes dans le couchage des papiers et cartons
Authors: Delon Jean-François , Liétard Olivier , Cases Jean-Maurice , Richard Michel , Sauret Georges , Maume Jean-Pierre
Published: December 2019

Cette étude porte sur une centaine d'échantillons de kaolins provenant du Bassin des Charentes ou produits commerciaux étrangers. Elle met en évidence les corrélations existant entre les caractéristiques cristallochimiques superficielles et rhéologiques des kaolins et leurs performances dans le domaine du couchage des papiers et cartons.

Les kaolins des Charentes possèdent les principales caractéristiques recherchées pour le couchage, hormis une réceptivité aux encres insuffisante, due à la présence de particules hyperfines (<0,1 micromètre). Ces essais, destinés à pallier cette insuffisance, ont donné des résultats intéressants.
The genetic significance of magnetite twins from China

Published: December 2019

Un grand nombre de cristaux de magnétite issus d'une zone de faille — située à Gongchangling, Chine — ont été étudiés sous divers aspects : distribution de taille, faciès cristallin, morphologie des macles, figures naturelles d'attaque sur les faces {111}, propriétés chimiques et physiques, inclusions minérales et microstructures des défauts.

Une statistique détaillée du degré de distorsion du faciès cristallin et des différents types morphologiques de macles, suggère une cristallisation syntectonique de la magnétite, sous contraintes de cisaillement. La validité de cette hypothèse est renforcée par les observations en MET de domaines antiphase, de dislocations linéaires, de maclage à l'échelle de la maille cristalline et d'autres défauts.

Les températures de décrépitation des inclusions fluides, la nature des minéraux cogénétiques, les figures d'attaque ainsi que les mesures isotopiques de δO¹⁸ plaident en faveur d'une origine pneumatolitique de la magnétite liée à l'activité magmatique des granites protérozoïques.

Cette étude fournit les premières clés pour comprendre la métallogenèse des riches gisements ferrifères de Gengchangling.
Nature and distribution of iron in volcanic glasses : Mössbauer and EPR study of Lipari pumice
Authors: Bart Jan C. J. , Burriesci Nicola , Cariati Franco , Cavallaro Stefano , Giordano Nicola , Petrera Michele
Published: December 2019

On a examiné diverses qualités commerciales de pierre ponce rhyolitique provenant de Lipari (Italie) au moyen de techniques analytiques chimiques, diffraction de rayons X, spectroscopie Mössbauer et de résonance paramagnétique électronique, avant et après dissolution chimique et élimination magnétique du fer dans le but d'évaluer la distribution et la configuration structurale du fer. Il est possible de distinguer la teneur en fer d'un oxyde, mesurée par la quantité de fer dissoute par traitement par Na₂S₂O₄ ou extraite par des moyens mécaniques, de la teneur en fer structural qui est concentré dans les résidus. Les spectres Mössbauer à la température de l'azote liquide (LNT) et à température ambiante (RT) ont été interprétés avec succès sur la base de trois environnements distincts, à savoir deux sites de Fe²⁺ haut spin de symétrie différente (les sites A et B, A étant le plus symétrique) et un site de Fe³⁺ haut spin de coordination 6 et/ou 4. La forme des spectres rappelle ceux de l'obsidienne qui est présente comme impureté dans la variété Lapillo. Les rapports de surface Fe³⁺/Fe (total) varient légèrement entre la qualité Lapillo (0,185) et la variété Peerless (0,160) et sont comparables à celui de l'obsidienne (0,106). Le rapport Fe²⁺(B)/Fe²⁺(A) est plus élevé pour les échantillons qui ont un pourcentage plus élevé de Fe³⁺.

Les spectres de résonance paramagnétique électronique présentent une résonance à g ≈ 4,3 due au Fe³⁺ haut spin isolé et un signal très large à g ≈ 2,0 en partie attribué à de petites quantités d'oxyde de fer extrait. Une partie de la teneur en fer est associée aux minéraux résistants qui accompagnent la pierre ponce.
Étude analytique des phases sulfurées du gîte de Rouez
Authors: Safa Philippe , Lafitte Michel , Maury Roger
Published: December 2019

L'étude analytique ponctuelle à la microsonde électronique de trois sulfures : pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite et sphalérite, contenus dans l'amas sulfuré de Rouez, Sarthe (France) met en lumière quelques caractères minéralogiques de ce gisement.

Elle permet de reconnaître la présence de deux phases de pyrrhotite, l'une hexagonale et l'autre monoclinique, en association avec des populations homogènes de chalcopyrite et de sphalérite, dont la teneur moyenne en fer est de l'ordre de 13 % moles FeS.

En admettant que ces différents sulfures soient en équilibre, on peut examiner la paragenèse du gisement de Rouez à la lumière de diagrammes thermodynamiques connus et des résultats de synthèses hydrothermales. On constate que la température d'équilibre correspondante est compatible avec le type de métamorphisme ayant affecté le corps minéralisé et son enveloppe. On peut alors envisager que le gisement de Rouez proche, sur le plan métallogénique, du modèle «amas sulfuré volcano-sédimentaire », ait évolué depuis sa formation et soit en équilibre avec les conditions du métamorphisme, c'est-à-dire du dernier événement thermique.
Phaunouxite Ca3(AsO4)2 • 11 H2O, a new mineral strictly associated with rauenthalite

Phaunouxite is triclinic P[-1] with a = 12.563(7), b = 12.181(6), c = 6.205(4) Å, α = 88.94(3), ß = 91.67(3), γ = 113.44(4)°, Z = 2. The strongest lines in the X-ray powder pattern are : 11.5(10) (100), 6.23(9) ([-2]10), 5.42(8) (011, 101, 0[-1]1), 3.276(9) (2[-3]1, 310), 2.963(6) (221), 2.810(6) (112, [-2]12), 2.443(7) (1[-3]2, [-5]30, [-3]02), 2.026(6) (0[-1]3, 103). The [001] needle crystals are colourless, vitreous, and with {100} dominant ; they occur in fan-shaped clusters at Gabe-Gottes vein in Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines (Vosges) with picropharmacolite, ferrarisite and aragonite. Cleavage {100} perfect ; Dmeas = 2.28(2) g.cm⁻³, Dcalc = 2.275 g. cm⁻³. Refractive indices are : nγ  = 1.556(2), nß = 1.542(2), nα = 1.532(2). 2V ≃ 80°. Only Ca, As, O and H are among the chemical constituents ; wet chemical analysis gave CaO 28.2, As₂O₅ 39,0. H₂O 31,5 %. The ideal chemical formula, Ca₃(AsO₄)₂ • 11 H₂O, was also established through crystal structure determination and the identification of the final dehydration product Ca₃(AsO₄)₂, which is formed at 570 °C and is preceded by two unidentified phases at 60 and 110°C. Phaunouxite is always intergrown with rauenthalite, Ca₃(AsO₄)₂ • 10 H₂O, from which it can be distinguished only through the strongest lines of their powder patterns. The name is for Phaunoux, the french name of the Rauenthal valley where the mine is, and has been approved by the IMA Commission.
The crystal structure of cabrerite, (Ni, Mg)3(AsO4)2 • 8 H2O, a variety of annabergite
Authors: Giuseppetti Giuseppe , Tadini Carla
Published: December 2019

Cabrerite, (Ni₂.₂ Mg₀.₇ Fe₀.₁)(AsO₄)₂ • 8 H₂O, from Laurium (Greece), crystallizes in space group C2/m, with a = 10.211(6), b = 13.335(3), c = 4.728(3) Å, β = 104.97°, Z = 2. The crystal structure of cabrerite had been refined starting from the parameters of vivianite. Anisotropic least squares refinement (R = 0.046), including cation occupancies, indicated significant ordering of Ni 8 Mg in the octahedral sites : M(1) = 0.976 Ni + 0.024 Mg ; M(2) = 1.392 Ni + 0.608 Mg. Single octahedra, M(1), and double octahedral groups, M(2)… M(2), are connected by AsO₄ tetrahedra to form complex sheets parallel to (010). These sheets are held together only by hydrogen bonding, thus accounting for the perfect (010) cleavage of the mineral.

The morphological study by scanning electron microscopy (S.E.M.) and crystallographical characterization by transmission electron microscopy (T.E.M.) of needle-shaped calcite microcrystals allowed to put in evidence a jagged needle habit that could correspond to a rapid and differentiated crystal growth, followed by dissolution phenomena.
Remarques sur la genèse et la cristallisation des magmas basaltiques
Authors: Vannier Michel , Besson Maurice , Berger Emmanuel Tobie
Published: December 2019

Fractional crystallization may not be the most appropriate model to explain the evolution of the very first liquids in a basaltic series. The model exposed in this paper, based upon a continual requilibrium of liquids with a solid paragenesis, leads to a simultaneous crystallization of olivine (with clinopyroxene or plagioclase) and resorption of orthopyroxene. The genesis of liquids at depths and their evolution due to decompression and cooling could be formulated in the same ways : a more or less perfect equilibrium liquid-solid under decreasing pressure and temperature. Continued equilibrium down to low pressures would produce saturated basalts, interrupted equilibrium would produce undersaturated basalts.
Cristallochimie du fer dans les cassitérites bretonnes
Authors: Calas Georges , Cottrant Jean-François
Published: December 2019

La cristallochimie du fer dans les cassitérites provenant de plusieurs gisements bretons a été étudiée à l'aide de différentes techniques. Les spectres de Résonance Paramagnétique Electronique (RPE), fortement variables selon les gisements, indiquent que le fer (III) occupe quatre types de sites différents, essentiellement deux sites substitutionnels fortement déformés, non connus dans les cassitérites synthétiques. Les processus de compensation de charge sont étudiés afin de comprendre ces différences, notamment l'influence d'impuretés situées en position d'interstitiels proches pour expliquer la déformation forte de certains sites occupés par le fer. Certains échantillons montrent en plus la présence de vanadium (IV) ou d'oxydes de fer finement divisés en concentration variable selon les gisements. Les spectres d'absorption optique montrent l'absence de transitions liées à des niveaux isolés : on constate un fort couplage avec le réseau via des processus de transfert de charge qui permettent de confirmer la position substitutionnelle de la majeure partie du fer dans le réseau de la cassitérite. Les propriétés électriques ne semblent pas liées directement à la présence du fer, mais plutôt à des lacunes d'oxygène compensant le déficit de charge lié à la présence d'impuretés.
Étude paragénétique de la minéralisation sulfurée complexe (Sb-Pb-Zn...) de Bournac (Hérault, France)
Authors: Munoz Marguerite , Moëlo Yves
Published: December 2019

L'étude paragénétique du minerai sulfuré complexe de Bournac (Montagne Noire ˗ France) a permis d'observer, aux côtés d'espèces courantes (principalement stibine, galène, blende et mispickel), la présence de nombreuses espèces assez rares, dont une majorité de sulfosels de Pb/Sb : boulangérite, semseyite, plagionite, zinkénite, fulöppite, géocronite, ménéghinite, jamesonite manganifère et andorite˗fizélyite. Le mispickel, parfois antimonifère, montre une forte facturation du rapport (As+Sb)/S ; les cuivres gris montrent une variation de la teneur en argent de 3 à 32 %.

La succession paragénétique se subdivise en cinq stades, dont quatre ont été générateurs de sulfosels d'antimoine spécifiques. Les trois premiers (ferro˗arsénifère, zincifère, puis plombo˗antimonifère) forment une unité paragénétique qui se retrouve dans le gisement voisin de La Rabasse, et correspond fidèlement à l'un des types définis dans le massif de Bohême. Le quatrième, purement antimonifère, a induit la formation de divers sulfosels de plomb par métasomatose de la galène et de sulfosels préexistants. Le cinquième correspond à une faible remobilisation in situ, avec évacuation préférentielle de l'antimoine.

Bien que les contextes gîtologiques soient très différents, l'évolution géochimique et paragénétique de la minéralisation de Bournac montre un parallélisme remarquable avec celle du district plombo˗antimonifère du Cap Sizun (Finistère - France). Cette similitude des paragenèses, qui souligne la possibilité de fortes distorsions entre type paragénétique et type gîtologique, traduirait directement la parenté géochimique des processus sources des métaux.
Les inclusions fluides dans les minéraux du métamorphisme à laumontite˗prehnite˗pumpellyite des grès du Champsaur (Alpes du Dauphiné). Etude du mécanisme de circulation des fluides
Authors: Saliot Pierre , Guilhaumou Nicole , Barbillat Jacques
Published: December 2019

Petrographic studies and fluid inclusion examination have been performed in Eocene sandstones from the "Alpes du Dauphiné" ; zeolites have been made by incorporation of Fe-Mg in chlorites and displacement of zeolitic constituents toward microcavities and fractures. As temperature increases, the mineralogical sequence contains laumontite and prehnite with a variation of fluid compositions. Temperature ranges from 170 to 310°C for a pressure between 200 and 650 bar. The fluids are chloride-poor and contain methane and ethane. They are different from the fluids in the adjacent Jurassic rock which are NaCl-and hydrocarbons rich. One can consider that the series operated as an isolated system which was laterally reimpregnated by surface fluids. Different fracture episodes which modified the porosity can be traced by fluids of different CO₂ contents and Al / Ca ratios.

Etude K/Ar du magmatisme basique lié au Trias supérieur des Pyrénées. Conséquences méthodologiques et paléogéographiques
Authors: Montigny Raymond , Azambre Bernard , Rossy Michel , Thuizat Robert
Published: December 2019

A K/Ar study has been carried out on basic magmatic rocks related to the Upper Triassic in the Pyrénées. In the Corbières (north-eastern part of the belt) two whole rock datations on lavas of alkaline affinity give ages of 210 ± 6 and 215 ± 7 My. Seven samples of the tholeiitic dolentes (ophites) from the central and occidental area have been studied : their whole rock ages (218 ± 8 My to 152 ± 6 My) have no geological significance since interstitial phases in the dolerites contain excess of argon. Dispersion of ages obtained on plagioclases may result from loss of argon during tectonic events. Plagioclases from two less tectonized sites give reliable ages (195 ± 8 and 197 ± 7 My) in good agreement with the age obtained on one pyroxene. The paleogeographic context of the two types of magmatism is discussed briefly.

Roman Citizenship of Italian *Augustales. Evidence, Problems, Competitive Advantages
Authors: Vandevoorde Lindsey
Published: December 2019

The title * augustalis was used during the first three centuries A. D., to refer to an honorary position in local society. It was mostly bestowed on wealthy freedmen who, because of their servile birth, could not partake in the official cursus honorum.

Scholars have considered * augustales to be Roman citizens, but this academic consensus is based on a broadly refuted interpretation of only five documents concerning one exceptional case. Although the value of these documents for the discussion of the civic status of * augustales was dismissed, the presumed Roman citizenship of * augustales inferred from them was not. This paper addresses three questions : (1) What (potential) evidence do we have for the civic status of Italian * augustales ? (2) How do we evaluate and work with the information and figures obtained from these ? (3) If only some of the * augustales were Roman citizens, did this offer them a competitive advantage vis-à-vis their fellow * augustales who were not, and is this recorded in epigraphy ?
Weaving tunics and beyond. Rural-Urban interactions in Roman Egypt
Authors: Menten-Plesters Ruben
Published: December 2019

Urban settings traditionally played an important role in the history of textile production. Already during the Hellenistic and Roman periods, large concentrations of demand could be found in cities such as Rome and Alexandria. These cities had an important impact on their hinterland and must have been supplied either with raw material, to be able to produce textiles within the city, or with finished textiles from the hinterland. However, the textile industry was not limited to spinning and weaving ; there was also an important finishing industry, often situated in towns, in which fulling and (re) dying played an important role. What role did the hinterland and the large towns or cities play in this context ? And how was the interaction between these different spheres of production organized ?
Het eerste Italiaanse geschiedwerk over de Opstand: Francesco Bocchi’s kroniek van een oorlog of biografie van een Italiaanse oorlogsheld?
Authors: Reijner Cees
Published: December 2019

Het manuscript van Francesco Bocchi uit 1585 vormt het begin van een reeks vroeg zeventiende-eeuwse Italiaanse geschiedenissen over de Nederlandse Opstand. Religieuze, politieke, militaire en commerciële factoren lagen ten grondslag aan de Italiaanse nieuwsgierigheid voor de Opstand. In deze bijdrage wordt een aspect van de bijzondere Italiaanse interesse voor het voetlicht gebracht dat nog niet goed is bestudeerd. Aan de hand van Bocchi’s handschrift zal worden aangetoond dat schrijven over het buitenland blijkbaar een geschikt middel was om actuele lokale en nationale politieke kwesties ter discussie te stellen. Het ongepubliceerde werk van Bocchi is zo’n voorbeeld van geschiedschrijving over een ander land dat de Florentijnse auteur in de gelegenheid stelde kritiek te leveren op de gang van zaken in het Spaans-Habsburgse leger en het Spaanse beleid in Italië.
National Identity and Autobiographical Literature: The German Reception of Victor Klemperer’s Notebooks
Authors: Sepp Arvi
Published: December 2019

Identité nationale et littérature autobiographique : La réception allemande des journaux intimes de Victor Klemperer.

L’analyse de la réception allemande des journaux intimes de Victor Klemperer écrits entre 1933 et 1945, Ich will Zeugnis ablegen bis zum letzten (Je veux témoigner jusqu’au bout), est au centre de cette contribution. Dans ce cadre, l’intérêt de la contribution sera triple : premièrement, la discussion sur Goldhagen et Klemperer en Allemagne sera traitée ; deuxièmement, la représentation des journaux de Klemperer dans l’historiographie et la critique littéraire allemandes sera abordée ; troisièmement, une analyse de la réception des journaux dans le contexte plus large de la culture littéraire allemande sera développée. Cette culture contemporaine met plus en évidence la souffrance allemande pendant la guerre avec un rapport plus distancié à l’Holocauste comme étant le moment d’identification de l’identité allemande d’après-guerre ; enfin, la relation entre «mémoire » et «identité » pour une compréhension adéquate de la réception des cahiers de Klemperer sera exposée.

Na een korte inleiding over historiografische metafictie, wordt in dit artikel besproken hoe Waterland (net als andere werken in deze categorie) het probleem thematiseert van de historiografie als narratieve constructie van het verleden, geleid door bepaalde regels en conventies. Waterland toont hoe dun de grens tussen geschiedenis en verhalen kan worden, zonder daarom mee te gaan in de postmoderne verleiding om historiografie gelijk te stellen aan fictie, en met nadruk op het belang van geschiedenis voor ons bestaan. Het slot van de paper is toegespitst op het belang van verhalen in menselijke levens, en toont hoe de roman werkt met het idee dat mensen verhalen vertellen om zin te geven aan hun leven en aan de wereld rondom hen. Waar aangewezen wordt een vergelijking gemaakt met twee andere historische metafictiewerken, Penelope Lively’s Moon Tiger en Julian Barnes’ Flaubert’s Parrot, om te tonen dat het niveau van het heden de bovenhand neemt op het echte verhaal van het verleden in historiografische metafictie, en om de stelling te onderbouwen dat dergelijke romans niet proberen om de grens tussen factuele en fictionele vertelling uit te vegen wanneer de objectiviteit van de geschiedenis in vraag gesteld wordt.
Du côté de M. Sanders. La diaspora jacobite dans les Pays-Bas méridionaux, 1688-1831
Authors: Judo Frank
Published: December 2019

Cet article tend à décrire la présence et l’activité aux Pays-Bas méridionaux d’exilés jacobites en provenance d’Angleterre, d’Écosse et d’Irlande pendant les dernières décennies du XVIIe et le XVIIIe siècle. La présence des jacobites dans des pays aussi différents que la France ou la Russie a déjà fait l’objet d’études approfondies, ce qui n’est pas le cas pour les Pays-Bas méridionaux. Ceci n’empêche pas qu’il est possible de constater la présence d’une scène jacobite d’une certaine importance et ceci bien loin dans le XVIIIe siècle. On constate même un regain d’activités au moment où l’activisme jacobite perd de ses forces. Le rôle des jacobites dans la vie économique n’est pas univoque. Il est évident que la création de la Compagnie d’Ostende répondait aux attentes des jacobites, mais cela n’implique pas qu’il y ait eu un lien étroit entre les deux dans l’ordre des faits. En ce qui concerne la vie religieuse des exilés en provenance des îles britanniques, il s’avère que la diversité d’opinions et de sensibilités concernant la réalité politique du pays de provenance était aussi réelle que large.
Challenging the Societal Death System: The Development of a Secularist Funerary Culture in Nineteenth-Century Belgium
Authors: de Spiegeleer Christoph
Published: December 2019

This paper reconstructs the history of civil funerals in Belgium during the long 19th century within a broader European context. Human agency was very important in challenging the Catholic hegemony over the cult of the dead in the funeral system of 19th-century Belgium. From the middle of the century onwards, anticlericals, driven by a new spirit of independence, set up their own processions and graveside ceremonies outside the sacramental system of the Catholic Church. Freethinkers and Freemasons looked for ways to protect themselves from clerical efforts or efforts from their close family members to convert them in the final moments of their lives. The history of secularist funerary culture in Belgium was also determined by more impersonal variables such as class, region, urban geography and gender. The first civil burial associations in Europe were founded in Brussels in a context of skilled labourers and French exiles in the 1850s. In Antwerp and Ghent, durable socialist freethinkers’ organisations which functioned as burial societies only started appeareing around 1880. In the urban areas of Liège and Charleroi, freethinkers in industrialised suburbs played a considerable role in the rise of civil burial movements in the 1870s-1880s.

Electrical Energy is a very important need, but the electrical energy we use today still comes from conventional power plants that have negative threats such as pollution and fossil fuel reserves that are decreasing. To overcome this, by utilizing alternative energy that is environmentally friendly, one of them is wind energy and solar energy. Hybrid power plants use savonius helix wind turbines and solar cells are made to minimize the use of conventional energy. This tool utilizes wind and solar energy as the main media of electricity generation. The wind turbine which is made is a type of helix savonius vertical turbine that has a large torque, can rotate with low wind speed with a turbine size 80 cm high, diameter 25 cm which is connected to the generator and mounted on mechanical construction with a height of 200 cm and mounted control panel and solar cell with a capacity of 20 WP. This study aims to develop the potential of alternative energy as a power generation medium and be used as a source of flashing lights in the Indorama Engineering Polytechnic lightning tower tower. Savonius helix wind turbines that are designed require a minimum wind speed of 2.45 m / s for the start of the turbine rotation. Generating from the generator produces a maximum voltage of 18.64 V with a generator rotation of 304 rpm when not loaded and when loaded produces a maximum spin voltage of 281.3 rpm, 11.73 V voltage and 0.038 W power with a wind speed of 5 m/s. From the results of testing this hybrid power plant can be used for flashing lights on the lightning rod tower of the Indorama Polytechnic Engineering campus with a duration of 12 hours per day

DIGITAL RIGHTS — NEW GENERATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS?
Authors: VARLAMOVA NATALIA V.
Published: December 2019

Among the digital rights, besides the right for internet access that was the subject of consideration in the first part of the article, there are also a right to per-so nal data protection and a right to be forgotten (right to erasure).The right to personal data protection is usually enshrined at the supranational and national levels and is protected by the courts as an aspect of the right to privacy. As an independent fundamental right of a constitutional nature the right to personal data protection is enshrined in EU law. Nevertheless, all attempts to doctrinally justify the existence of certain aspects of this right, beyond the claims to the right to privacy, can not be considered successful. The Court of Justice of the EU, while dealing with the relevant cases in order to determine whether certain methods of processing personal data are legitimate, also refers to the right to privacy, considering these rights to be closely interrelated. The right to personal data protection provides additional (including procedural) guarantees of respect for privacy, human dignity and some other rights, but the purpose of these guarantees is precisely the content of the providing rights. The right to be forgotten (right to erasure) is one of the positive obligations with regard to the personal data protection. This right implies correction, deletion or termination of the processing of personal data at the request of their subject in the presence of a reason for this (when the relevant actions are carried out in violation of the principles of data processing or provisions of the legislation). Analogs of this right are the Latin American orders of habeas data, as well as the right of a person to demand the refutation of information discrediting his honor, dignity and business reputation, in case of their inconsistency with reality under civil law and the legislation on mass media. In digital age the importance of this right is increased by the fact that information posted on the Internet remains easily accessible for an indefinite, almost unlimited, time.This caused the extension of the right to be forgotten to information that is consistent to reality, but has lost its relevance and significance, however, continues to have an adverse impact on the reputation of the person concerned. At the same time, the realization of the right to be forgotten in respect of information posted online is connected with a number of technical problems that require legal solutions.In general, digitalization does not create new human rights of a fundamentally different legal nature. It only actualizes or smooths certain aspects of long-recognized rights, transfers their operation into the virtual space, creates new opportunities for their realization and generates new threats to them. Ensuring human rights in modern conditions involves the search for adequate legal solutions, taking into account the opportunities and limitations generated by digital technologies.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, kliniğimizde
bronşektazi tanısıyla takip edilmiş hastaların balgam kültür sonuçlarının
hastanede kalış süresi üzerine etkisinin olup olmadığını araştırmaktır. Materyal ve metod: Ocak 2018-aralık 2018 tarihleri arasında göğüs hastalıkları kliniğinde bronşektazi tanısyla takip edilen,  23 hastanın laboratuvar ve radyolojik verileri retrospektif olarak incelendi.Bulgular: Hastaların %39,1' de 
kültürde üreme olurken (9 hasta), %60,1'de kültürde üreme olmadı (14
hasta). 4 hastanın kültüründe klebsiella pnömoni, yine 4 hastanın
kültüründe  psödomonas aeruginosa ve 1
hastanın kültüründe de  myocobacterıum
tuberculosis üredi.kültür üremesi olan hastalar ile kültür üremesi olmayan
hastalar hastane yatış süreleri karşılaştırıldı.Kültürde üremesi saptanan
hastalarda (10.1±5.1 gün), kültürde üremesi saptanmayan hastalara (7.8±5.5 gün)
göre hastane yatış süresi daha uzun olmakla beraber istatiksel olarak anlamlı
bir farklılık tespit edilmedi (p=0.135). Ancak
kültürde  psödomonas aeruginosa üremesi olanların hastanede kalış süresi daha
uzun ve istatiksel olarak ta anlamlı idi.Sonuç: Bronşektazi tanılı hastalarda kolonizasyon ve/veya enfeksiyon
sık görülmektedir. Balgam kültürlerinde en sık üreyen etkenlerden biri pseudomonas aeruginosadır ve bu etken
hastane yatış sürelerini arttırmaktadır. Çalışmamızda az sayıda olgu olmasına
rağmen, literatür verilerine  benzer
sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Ancak daha etkili değerlendirmeler yapabilmek için
hasta sayısının daha yoğun olduğu benzer çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
