Observations of Shoaling Internal Wave Transformation Over a Gentle Slope in the South China Sea
Authors: Ramp Steven R. , Yang Yiing Jang , Chiu Ching-Sang , Reeder D. Benjamin , Bahr Frederick L.
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Four oceanographic moorings were deployed across the South China Sea continental slope near 21.85° N, 117.71° E, from May 30 to July 18, 2014 for the purpose of observing high-frequency nonlinear internal waves (NLIWs) as they shoaled across a rough, gently sloping bottom. Individual waves required just two hours to traverse the array and could thus easily be tracked from mooring-to-mooring. In general, the amplitude of the incoming NLIWs was a good match with the fortnightly tidal envelope in the Luzon Strait, lagged by 48.5 hours, and were smaller than the waves observed 50 km to the southwest near the Dongsha Plateau. The now-familiar type a-waves and b-waves were observed, with the b-waves always leading the a-waves by 6–8 hours. Most of the waves were remotely generated, but a few of the b-waves formed locally via convergence and breaking at the leading edge of the upslope internal tide. Waves incident upon the array with amplitude less than 50 m and energy less than 100 MJ m−1 propagated adiabatically upslope with little change of form. Larger waves formed packets via wave dispersion. For the larger waves, the kinetic energy flux decreased sharply upslope between 342 m to 266 m while the potential energy flux increased slightly, causing an increasing ratio of potential-to-kinetic energy as the waves shoaled. The results are in rough agreement with recent theory and numerical simulations of shoaling waves.
Ice-shelf ocean boundary layer dynamics from large-eddy simulations
Authors: Begeman Carolyn Branecky , Asay-Davis Xylar , Van Roekel Luke
Published: September 2021

Abstract. Small scale, turbulent flow below ice shelves is regionally isolated and difficult to measure and simulate. Yet these small scale processes, which regulate heat transfer between the ocean and ice shelves, can affect sea-level rise by altering the ability of Antarctic ice shelves to “buttress” ice flux to the ocean. In this study, we improve our understanding of turbulence below ice shelves by means of large-eddy simulations at sub-meter resolution, capturing boundary layer mixing at scales intermediate between laboratory experiments or direct numerical simulations and regional or global ocean circulation models. Our simulations feature the development of an ice-shelf ocean boundary layer through dynamic ice melting in a regime with low thermal driving, low ice-shelf basal slope, and strong shear driven by the geostrophic flow. We present a preliminary assessment of existing ice-shelf basal melt parameterizations adopted in single component or coupled ice-sheet and ocean models on the basis of a small parameter study. While the parameterized linear relationship between ice-shelf melt rate and far-field ocean temperature appears to be robust, we point out a little-considered relationship between ice-shelf basal slope and melting worthy of further study.

Objetivo. A pesquisa a seguir tem como objetivo analisar os novos conteúdos de disseminação de informações falsas, assim buscando conceituar o que seriam as “deepfake” e as “fakenews” e as consequências dessas manipulações de imagem e veiculação de noticias.Metodo. Desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa exploratória com levantamento bibliográfico de materiais previamente publicados, como artigos de periódicos científicos, em que foi realiza uma revisão de literatura apropriada de maneira a esclarecer e apresentar o assunto sobre as “deepfakes” ainda pouco conhecida, além disso, apresentar de que maneira ela é criada, manipulada a ponto de se dissemina de mananeira desenfreada frente às redes sociais.Resultados. Sabe-se que hoje os softwares e aplicativos para smatphones proporcionam, de modo muito hábil, que usuários manipulem imagem com extrema facilidade, os chamados fakeApp,que são ferramentas que permitem alteração e manipulação de imagens de maneira que não deixem pistas visuais de sua alteração, podendo ser indistinguíveis aos autênticos. Exemplo do resultado destas manipulações é a “deepfake”, é a técnica que substitui o rosto de uma pessoa por outra em um vídeo, no panorama atual é comum visualizar vídeos falsos, o que geram as “fakenews”, ou notícias falsas, muito veiculadas nas redes sociais e que cabem por ganhar certa credibilidade devido à dificuldade de distinguir a veracidade na imagem ali mostrada, tão quão são imperceptíveis as marcas de adulteração. O que facilita a produção das “fakenews”, é que qualquer usuário com conhecimento limitado de programação e pouca aprendizagem tecnológica pode criar “deepfakes” e esse tipo de produção tem desencadeado desafios aos profissionais forenses, que ainda encontram significativa diferença entre as “deepfakes” e os vídeos autênticos.
The Emergence and Evolution of Slavery Legislation in Antebellum Louisiana
Authors: Faizon Madison
Published: September 2021

Louisiana emerged from the periphery of the American colonies to form a powerful commercial and economic center. The state’s development of sovereignty, wealth, infrastructure, and legislation relied heavily on the unsalaried labor of Enslaved individuals. The chattel slave market particularly shaped the state’s government structure and character. Slavery legislation developed with the influence European legal traditions. Beginning with the enactment of the French ordonnance, Code Noir, and finally the Spanish oartacion. These legislative forces influenced the drafting and enactment of the Louisiana’s first Civil Code in 1808. This Code married the ideals of French, Spanish, Roman, and English legal traditions. It established Enslaved individuals position as subordinate, expendable property. This legal commodification of human beings occurred over centuries and continues to persist as a barrier for equality and justice for all. The legal legacy of slavery legislation in the United States continues to impact the field in the present moment.
Fairies and Fairness:
Authors: Herzig Marissa
Published: September 2021

The traditional association of whiteness with fairies warrants a closer examination, as this mythological yearning for a specific childlike realm reveals an idealization of a white past. Indeed, the likening of women to a pure, infantile domain reveals an elevation of whiteness, which, by default, degrades people of color as lesser. While there has been considerable scholarship on the racialization of Charlotte Brontë’s Haitian character Bertha Mason, the construction of whiteness in conjunction with Jane Eyre’s character has remained largely unexplored. I explore these themes of the construction of whiteness through fairies and the romanticization of a white past through a close analysis of humanity in Jane Eyre. I first investigate Victorian and Edwardian fairy visuals, moving on to demonstrate how Jane’s individuality and feminism gains autonomy with her religious spiritualism. I also show, however, how the faerie language in the novel serves to override and disregard Jane’s position as a human being with agency due to Mr. Rochester’s aesthetic of white femininity. Through close readings of the supernatural in Jane Eyre, I scrutinize how the use of fairy language creates a power imbalance where the dehumanization of women and minorities creates a male fantasy directly opposed to the theme of the individual. I discuss how the sexualization and racialization of women as supernatural beings bolsters the self-serving, problematic construct of the ‘human’ which continuously labels women and minorities as less than. Therefore, to restructure this racism and misogynistic thought, I propose a decentering of humanity from a white male perspective, seeing women and minorities not as a monolithic “Other,” almost supernatural beings, but as equally human and worth of respect and dignity.
XML Dataset and Benchmarks for Performance Testing of the CLS Labelling Scheme
Authors: Klaib Alhadi A.
Published: September 2021

Extensible Markup Language (XML) has become a significant technology for transferring data through the world of the Internet. XML labelling schemes are an essential technique used to handle XML data effectively. Labelling XML data is performed by assigning labels to all nodes in that XML document. CLS labelling scheme is a hybrid labelling scheme that was developed to address some limitations of indexing XML data.  Moreover, datasets are used to test XML labelling schemes. There are many XML datasets available nowadays. Some of them are from real life datasets and others are from artificial datasets. These datasets and benchmarks are used for testing the XML labelling schemes. This paper discusses and considers these datasets and benchmarks and their specifications in order to determine the most appropriate one for testing the CLS labelling scheme. This research found out that the XMark benchmark is the most appropriate choice for the testing performance of the CLS labelling scheme.

Published: September 2021

Os autores após contextualizarem a importância das doenças hepáticas crônicas avançadas, uma vez que ocupam o oitavo lugar no ranking de mortalidade no Brasil, ao abordarem a classificação da cirrose, ressaltam a importância da hipertensão porta clinicamente significativa (HPCS). Sendo ela o fator preponderante não só do surgimento das varizes gastroesofágicas, mas também das demais complicações da cirrose trazem reflexões em relação a uma nova postura a ser tomada. Assim, o objetivo do tratamento não seria a profilaxia do sangramento das varizes mas a profilaxia/tratamento da HPCS. Ao fazerem esta assertiva, demonstram a importância do tratamento da doença hepática de base bem como da hipertensão porta com os ß-bloqueadores não específicos. Tendo em vista, estas medidas não terem a efetividade ideal, fazem reflexões em relação ao papel das estatinas no tratamento das doenças hepáticas. Ao salientarem seu papel antioxidante; anti-inflamatório; antitrombótico; antifibrótico e na melhora da disfunção endotelial, apresentam evidências de sua utilização como arma terapêutica no tratamento dos pacientes com cirrose e HPCS. No entanto, ao ressaltarem o papel das estatinas no armamentário terapêutico, julgam ainda necessária a existência de mais estudos prospectivos randomizados para que seja tomada uma conduta mais definitiva.

A trend towards energy diversification creates the expansion of small energy facilities that involve the production of solid fuel generator gas, rather than its direct combustion. The economic indicators of such facilities significantly depend on the efficiency of the generator gas purification. A promising sorbent for the purification of the generator gas is dolomite. When working as a sorbent, dolomite particles usually form a layer, through which the generator gas that is heating them is filtered. The objective of the study is to determine kinetic parameters of the thermal decomposition of dolomite, depending on the size of the sample. It was achieved using the thermogravimetric study of the thermal decomposition of single dolomite particles under static conditions at various temperatures. The most significant scientific result was that a dependence of the kinetic parameters of the gross reaction on the size of the initial particle is revealed, and a regression equation was proposed for its quantitative assessment. In addition, since the heat treatment process of the material was fairly long lasting, and the sizes of the particles allowed them to be referred to thermally thin bodies, it was inferred that the effect of a grain size on the reaction kinetics should be explained through the description of the evacuation process of gaseous reaction products from the material. The significance of the results of the study lies in the fact that a particle size must be considered as a factor that affects the progress of the technological process, which increases the reliability of the calculation of sorption-catalytic systems based on the use of dolomite.
Hybrid Carbon Dioxide Heat Pump for the Multifamily Residential Buildings in the Heat Supply System Based on CHP
Authors:   Institute of Power Engineering, Republic of Moldova, Sit Mihail , Juravliov Anatoliy ,   Institute of Power Engineering, Republic of Moldova
Published: September 2021

The work is devoted to centralized heat supply systems based on CHP plants and the use with them heat pumps (HP) on carbon dioxide as refrigerant. Heat pumps are used in heat supply systems for buildings and use the heat of the outside air and, at the same time, the heat of the return network water (WWR) as a source of low-grade heat (LHP). The aim of the study is to develop a structural diagram of such a heat pump, where the outside air is heated by a heat exchanger installed in the return water line of the heating system, to develop a hydraulic circuit of a heat pump taking into account the law of regulation of the building heating system, to develop an algorithm for controlling the operating modes of the so-called balancing heat exchanger installed after gas cooler and internal heat exchanger of the heat pump. The most significant results were the hydraulic circuit of the heat pump, the aerodynamic circuit of the air supply path to the heat pump evaporator, the balancing heat exchanger control system, taking into account the requirement to ensure the operation of the control valve in a single-phase flow. The significance of the results obtained consisted in obtaining the dependences between the CO temperature graph and the parameters of the thermodynamic cycle of the heat pump, which ensured the operation of the control valve of the heat pump in a single-phase environment.

Objective. Stenosing tenosynovitis (Nott’s disease, "trigger finger") is one of the most common pathologies of the hand which hand surgeons and orthopedic surgeons have to deal with. A variety of conservative methods are used to treat “trigger finger", including individual splinting and corticosteroid injections. Surgical treatment consists of dissection of the A1 pulley. Traditionally, the operation starts with a small incision. However, in recent years, a number of articles have appeared that report that percutaneous ligamentotomy on II-V fingers is a safe and effective alternative to an open surgery. Due to anatomical features, some authors do not recommend performing a percutaneous ligamentotomy on the thumb, fearing the damage it can cause to the digital nerves.

The purpose of this research is to show that the minimally invasive needle ligamentotomy of the thumb A1 pulley is a safe procedure and to conduct the approbation of the offered method.

Material and methods. The research consisted of two parts - anatomical and clinical. In the anatomical part of the research (8 upper extremities of 4 unfixed corpses), we proposed the safe accesses in order to conduct percutaneous ligamentotomy of the thumb A1 pulley.

In the clinical part of the study we tested a minimally invasive ligamentotomy and analysed the results of treatment in 109 patients with stenosing tenosynovitis of the thumb II-IV stage by Green aged from 28 to 80. All patients received minimally invasive ligamentotomy of the A1 pulley with 18g needle under local anaesthesia (120 surgeries). Average length of the operation was several minutes. All procedures were performed outpatiently. Evaluation of the results of treatment was performed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Gilberts questionnaire. The observation period was from 12 months up to 24 months.

The results. In most cases both clinical and esthetical results were excellent. It was possible to eliminate the “trigger” of the finger intraoperatively for all patients. However, 6 (5.5%) patients complained about the presence of residual clicks due to incomplete dissection of the ligament at the control examination a week later. Percutaneous ligamentotomy was conducted again on all patients with successful outcomes. No recurrence of the disease was noted. 17% of patients tend to complain about pain in the A1 pulley localization during the first week after the operation.

Conclusion. The empirical findings prove the efficiency and safety of percutaneous ligamentotomy of the thumb A1 pulley. One of the merits of this technique is a lower risk of postoperative complications and lower treatment expenses. This technique can be successfully used in the practice of hand surgeons in the outpatient setting that have the experience with the conduction of open operations.
The first assessment of the impact of possible methods for the prevention of pancreatitis in endoscopic transpapillary interventions on the level of amylasemia

Published: September 2021

The paper is devoted to the assessment of prevention methods of post-ERCP pancreatitis on the analysis of hyperamilasemia in patients with pathology of the pancreatobiliary system, who underwent endoscopic transpapillary interventions.

The aim of the study: initial assessment of the impact of possible methods for the prevention of pancreatitis in endoscopic transpapillary interventions on the level of amylasemia.

The study is based on a continuous retrospective analysis of 73 case histories of patients undergoing EPST. For analysis, patients were divided into three groups: in the 1st, stenting of the pancreatic duct was performed by plastic stents, in the 2nd group, parapapillary blockade of 0.5% novocaine solution in a volume of 10ml was performed, in the 3rd group the described methods were not used. In the study, in patients with stenting, the development of hyperamilasemia was detected in 22% of cases, with only parapapillary blockade with novocaine solution - in 38% of cases, without the use of the described methods of prevention - in 15%. Amylasemia relief periods were significantly longer with stenting. The study demonstrated the equally low effectiveness of the methods used and the need to continue data analysis of described methods for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

Published: September 2021

Despite the fact that defense and apology have been studied thoroughly in rhetoric and communication research in recent decades, their counterpart; the accusation has received ­surprisingly limited ­attention from rhetorical criticism. This essay sets out to remedy parts of these shortcomings by suggesting to define the accusation as a situated act where somebody ascribes guilt to a group or individual. The definition ties the accusation to the representation of acts considered to be in violation of ­existing norms and the essay argues that the logic of narra­tive determines the forms and functions of an accusation. The essay tests the definition through close readings of accusations from the debate about the proper handling of the corona-virus, as this debate has played out in the Scandinavian countries during 2020. Two extreme examples of accusations – one situated in the ­formal legal system, one situated in an informal, private conversation – are briefly analyzed before the essay turns to its main case in the form of an article from Dagens Nyheter, in which Swedish scientists accuse the Swedish health authorities and the Swedish government for neglect
Ad Herennium. Till Gaius Herennius om talekonstens teori
Authors: Johannesson Kurt
Published: September 2021

De ratione dicendi ad C. Herennium - ”Till Gaius Herennius om talekonstens teori” - är den äldsta bevarade systematiseringen av romersk retorik. Förmodligen författad 86-82 f.Kr. är den tydligt influerad av grekisk tradition och boken fick stort genomslag, inte minst under medeltiden och renässansen. För modern retorik är boken oumbärlig i kraft av sin originalitet och systematik, i synnerhet i sin genomgång av retorikens figurlära (bok IV). Förstautgåvan av Birger Berghs översättning sammanföll med explosionen i det pånyttfödda intresset för retorik i Sverige, och boken är en etablerad pelare i den svenska retorikens kanon. Den nya, omarbetade utgåvan har blivit än mer användbar för studerande och intresserade som vill lära känna retorikens fundament och ursprung.

Published: September 2021

Background: Premature parturition difficulties are the key reason of death for children less than 5 years, resulting more than 1 million mortality in 2015 alone. Many disabilities among children are associated with preterm. Chronic Apical Periodontitis has been reported to be a prevalent disease   especially in adults. CAP is usually a condition in which apical portion of the root of tooth is chronically inflamed.

 

Objective: The purpose this research was to identify the characteristics of chronic apical periodontitis among post-natal Pakistani women.

 

Methodology:  This cross-sectional study was conducted at among 150 post-natal women suffered from CAP at Gynaecology ward, Unit III, Civil Hospital Karachi. Data were collected from women who delivered babies on that day at the Gynae ward CHK  and satisfied the criteria to be included in the study. Principal Investigator assessed radiographs for the presences of CAP. SPSS version 21.0 was used to enter and analysed the study data.

 

Results:  Mean age of participants was 26.61 ± 4.83. Among all participants 63 (42%) were unable to read or write. There were 100 (66.7%) participants who had monthly income < 10,000. Majority of the participants had ? 6 members in family. Majority 104 (69.3%) were multigravida while 46 (30. %) were primigravida. Mean gestational period in weeks was 36.16 ± 2.31. Majority of the participants 115 (76.7%) had CAP in single tooth, 32 (21.3%) had in 2 teeth and 3 (2%) had CAP in 3 teeth. PAI score was significantly associated with birth type (normal term and preterm). Baby weight was significantly differed between PAI scores.

Conclusion: Results of this study indicate most of the study women were illiterate and belong to low income family. There was higher percentage of multigravida and most of the deliveries were normal vaginal. CAP in single tooth was found among majority of the study women.

Authors: Dodhy Afia Arshed
Published: September 2021

Objective: The purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine and ondansetron to prevent shivering in patients  undergoing lower limb surgeries after spinal anaesthesia .

Methods: This  randomised  double-blind and  placebo-control study trial was held in orthopaedic operation theatre of Lahore General Hospital, Lahore from February 2020 to June 2020. Total of 120  adult patients  who underwent elective orthopaedic surgery of lower limbs after spinal anaesthesia  were divided  into 3 batches. In Batch S, saline was given as  placebo, in Batch O ondansetron and in Batch D dexmedetomidine was administered and shivering score were assessed for 45 min. A shivering score of   ? 3 was considered as primary outcome.

Results: There is  statistically considerable difference, in the incidence of significant shivering (grade 3 & 4), among batches, as established by one way ANOVA. The significance value is 0.004 (i.e. p=0.004). There was no significant difference statistically between batch D and batch O (p=0.878)

Conclusion: The incidence of shivering in batch S  was considerably higher than  that of both Batch O and  batch D while no significant relationship could be proved in between batch D and batch O

Published: September 2021

Abstract:

Objective:

1.To determine the pattern of resistance of salmonella Typhi strains to multiple antibiotics in Islamabad and adjoining areas.

2.Suggestions regarding the regular upgradation of antibiogram according to the most susceptible strains.

Method:

Cross sectional study conducted for duration of one year ,recruited those patients whose blood cultures were found positive for Salmonella Typhi at Islamabad Diagnostic Center. We analyzed 100 samples and Positive culture were then assessed for sensitivity by using various antibiotics and pattern of resistance was analyzed.

 

Results:

Majority of positive patients were male and children. Sensitivity to the conventional antibiotics was found to be more in children. In all the positive isolates, 89% were sensitive to the first line treatment options.Among them, 96.6%were showing sensitivity to third generation cephalosporin. However, a few cases were having extensively drug resistant patterns (XDR).

Conclusion:

Despite the fact that extensively drug resistantstrains are emerging and indicating an alarming situation,its found out that more than 80% of patients are responding to the conventional therapy,making it a dire need for upgradation of antibiograms, so that the side effects of second line and advanced antibiotic can be avoided, mostly in paediatric population.
Enzymatical hydrolysis of proteins from Tra fish flesh scrap
Authors: Le Thien T.
Published: September 2021

The study was carried out to compare types of enzymes and to evaluate effects of conditions for hydrolysis of Tra fish flesh scraps. Among the four experimented enzymes including protamex, papain, neutrase, and alcalase, the last one was the most efficient in term of protein recovery yield and hydrolysis degree. The hydrolysis efficiency was at the maximum at conditions of pH 8.0, the temperature 55oC and the rate of enzyme/material 1.0%. At these conditions, the protein recovery yield was over 70%, and hydrolysis degree was over 18%. The results of the research provide a background to apply enzymes to convert Tra fish flesh scraps into a protein hydrolysate to be used as a functional ingredient or to be used in functional foods

Authors: Le Phuong T. T.
Published: September 2021

This study aimed to isolate and examine the biological characteristics of PCV2 field strains circulating in Vietnam for further study in producing vaccine against PMWS (postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome). Eighteen PCV2 strains were successfully isolated and belonged to genotype PCV2b (9 strains), PCV2d (6 strains) and recombinant (3 strains). The viral titers of PCV2 isolates at the third passages in PK15A cells were in the range from 1.67 to 5,50 log10TCID50/mL. Three PCV2 field strains with stable viral titers (≥ 5,0 log10TCID50/mL) through passages, which belonged to different genotypes, were selected as master seed for studying of PCV2 vaccines

Published: September 2021

Stability Indicating RP HPLC method was developed for estimation of Itraconazole in bulk drug and in capsule dosage form. An isocratic separation was achieved using Phenomenex symmetry C8 (250 ×4.6 mm) 5?m [Part number - 00G-4249-E0] column with a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min and detection wavelength at 254 nm. The mobile phase consisted of 20 mM potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate buffer (pH=5.5): Acetonitrile: Methanol (20:40:40 % v/v). The method was rectilinear from 10-60 ?g/ml and displayed adequate precision (RSD < 2.0%) & accuracy (99.31-101.16%). The proposed method is found to be specific with respect to degradation product formed after Acidic hydrolysis, Oxidation, Thermal and Photolytic degradation. The Itracoazole was found to be stable under alkaline stress condition. Acidic, thermal, photolytic stress conditions showed moderate degradation whereas the oxidative stress condition showed severe degradation. The proposed chromatographic method can be used for estimation of drug during stress testing & formal stability studies.
Unlikely Temple: Building a Theater at Tao House
Authors: Hayes Eric Fraisher
Published: September 2021

During the height of his popularity in the 1920s, Eugene O'Neill imagined “a theatre returned to its highest and sole significant function as a Temple where the religion of poetic interpretation and symbolic celebration of life is communicated to human beings.” As the artistic director of the Eugene O'Neill Foundation, I have labored for the better part of a decade to establish O'Neill's “temple” with productions at the playwright's former home, Tao House, in Danville, California. Directing Chris Christophersen, The Iceman Cometh, Desire Under the Elms, The Emperor Jones, A Touch of the Poet, Hughie, and Long Day's Journey Into Night in Tao House's Old Barn has been a unique artistic and spiritual experience. My goal has been to build reverence for the sacred experience of seeing O'Neill's plays a stone's throw from where he created some of his best work.
Agremiação minoritária, líderes operários e desacordos internos
Authors: Gomes Sandro Aramis Richter
Published: September 2021

Neste artigo é desenvolvida uma investigação sobre os processos de formação e dissolução do Partido Reivindicador Proletário do Paraná (1933-1934). Por meio de um estudo de caso, o objetivo desta análise é produzir um conhecimento acerca da organização interna e da ação eleitoral dos partidos minoritários que surgiram nos estados brasileiros ao tempo do Governo Provisório (1930-1934). Primeiro, é evidenciado que a criação da citada agremiação decorreu da aliança entre líderes veteranos e novatos do movimento operário do Paraná. Segundo, cumpre destacar que essa grei teve êxito em recrutar correligionários em municípios do interior. Terceiro, demonstra-se que o fraco desempenho eleitoral e as celeumas entre dirigentes provocaram a extinção desse partido.
