Published: May 2020

El presente trabajo tuvo como propósito evaluar el uso de los residuos del cultivo de maíz (Zea mays) como alternativa sostenible en la elaboración de bloques para la construcción. Para el desarrollo de la investigación experimental se aplicó una encuesta a los productores de maíz en la parroquia Boyacá, cantón Chone, con el fin de conocer el destino final de estos residuos. Los resultados de la encuesta ejecutada a los productores revelan que el 73% queman a cielo abierto los residuos de dicho cultivo después de cada periodo de cosecha; el 20% lo utilizan como alimento para el ganado; el 5% realizan ensilajes y el 2% lo reutilizan como abono para las plantas. Para la obtención de los bloques se establecieron tres tratamientos y un testigo, con diferentes dosificaciones de residuos del cultivo de maíz (tusa, tallo y hoja): T1 (25% - 1.25 kg); T2 (50% - 2.50 kg); T3 (75% - 3.75 kg) y testigo (100% - 5 kg). Luego se realizaron ensayos de resistencia a comprensión a los 7, 14, 21 y 28 días con el objetivo de compararlos con los bloques tradicionales. Finalmente, como resultado, se obtuvo que el T1 con 25% de residuos del cultivo de maíz presentó la mayor resistencia (43 kg/cm2) a los 28 días, lo cual permitió concluir que este bloque cumple con los parámetros de la norma NTE INEN 3066 (2016), clasificándolo como bloque para la construcción clase B. Conforme al análisis estadístico existen diferencias significativas entre cada uno de los tratamientos.

Lombok International Airport has runway, apron, and two taxiways along with its drainage. The drainage system is needed to prevent puddles of rainwater in the runway, taxiway and apron that can obstruct the aircraft movement. However, looking at the existing condition of the Lombok International Airport’s trunk, it is necessary to conduct research about trunk reconstruction for the next ten years’ time.The research is begun by collecting data such as existing elevation, existing dimension, slope of existing trunk and rainfall data for the last five years. From these data, an analysis of the rainfall plan is carried out using gumbel distribution method. Furthermore, from the results of the analysis, it is obtained the daily maximum rainfall which is used to know the rainwater runoff debit. Re-planning the dimensions of Lombok International Airport’s trunk is carried out to accommodate rainwater runoff debit for the next ten years since the existing dimensions of the existing trunk cannot accommodate rainwater runoff debit for the next ten years. Therefore, it was obtained the design plan for the reconstruction of each segment with a length of 1,2 meters, width of 1,84 meters and height of 1,77 meters. Re-planning the dimensions of the trunk is in precast concrete.

Authors: Pin Tang Yuan , Lim Linda Biaw Leng , Tennakoon Kushan U.
Published: May 2020

Three different associations of Scurrula ferruginea parasites on three different hosts, namely Tabebuia pallida, Acacia holosericea and Acacia auriculiformis were collected from the Brunei-Muara District, Brunei Darussalam. Moisture content and chemical analyses (ash content, total carbohydrate content, crude protein, proline and mineral content composition) were determined to explain the host-parasite physiological biochemistry. Scurrula ferruginea contained relatively higher moisture content (47 – 65%) and ash content (2.1-2.5%, dry basis) than the hosts (0.7-1.4%, dry basis). High nutrient and moisture contents in Scurrula ferruginea make it more preferred food source than its hosts for generalist herbivores in a given community. The mistletoe exhibited differential storage profile of total carbohydrate (1.9-6.4%, dry basis) and total nitrogen (1.2 – 3.0%, dry-basis) when compared to hosts (total carbohydrate 2.3 - 3.0 % dry basis; total nitrogen 1.6 - 2.1%). Meanwhile the proline content (24.9-56.0 mg/kg, dry basis) were found in Scurrula ferruginea. Among all the minerals analysed, potassium is the most abundant mineral present in all mistletoe-host associations. Data indicated that certain host desired solutes are preferentially absorbed and stored in mistletoe.

Heat transfer detraction for conjugate effect of Joule heating and magneto-hydrodynamics on mixed convection in a lid-driven cavity along with a heated hollow circular plate
Authors: Farid S.K. , Uddin M. Sharif , Rahman M.M. , Ping Yeo Wee
Published: May 2020

In this paper, the influence of Joule heating and magneto-hydrodynamics on mixed convection in a lid-driven cavity along with a heated hollow circular plate placed at the centre of the square cavity is investigated. The governing equations which are derived by considering the effects of both Joule heating and magneto-hydrodynamics are solved via the penalty finite-element method with the Galerkin-weighted residual technique. The effects of the Richardson number and Hartmann number arising from the MHD and Joule heating on the flow and heat transfer characteristics have been examined. The results show that the flow behavior, temperature distribution and heat transfer inside the cavity are strongly affected by the presence of the magnetic field. On the other hand, only the temperature distribution and heat transfer inside the cavity are strongly affected by the Joule heating parameter. The results also show that if the Hartmann number is increased from 5 to 100 then the heat transfer detraction is 20%, and if the Joule heating parameter is increased from 1 to 5 then the heat transfer detraction is 58%. In addition, multiple regressions among the various parameters are obtained.
Checklist of Seedplant holdings of the UBD Herbarium (UBDH), with 234 new plant records for Brunei Darussalam
Authors: Zamri Azim , Slik J.W.F.
Published: May 2020

Here we provide a checklist of all seed plant collections (Angiosperms and Gymnosperms) present in the UBD Herbarium (UBDH). The plants are arranged in alphabetical order by family, genus and species, using the latest taxonomic classifications. UBDH contained a total of 5271 databased seed plant collections (1060 fertile, and 4211 sterile), consisting of 1386 species from 130 families. The collections covered only a limited part of Brunei Darussalam, being concentrated near the easily accessible coastal zones of Muara, Tutong and Belait, as well as near the Kuala Belalong Field Study Centre in Temburong. Because the majority of collections in UBDH came from permanent forest plots, the collections are dominated by tree families, with Dipterocarpaceae both the most collected and species rich family. We found 234 species in UBDH that were not listed in the Brunei checklist and are potentially new records for Brunei Darussalam. This would increase the known number of seed plants in Brunei by ca. 5%. The high number of new species records suggests that the Brunei seed plant flora is still incompletely known.

Published: May 2020

Legionella pneumophila is a waterborne pathogen that causes respiratory ailments including Pontiac fever and Legionnaires’ disease. A culture-free, fast and sensitive detection technique is very important for detection of the pathogen. The present study describes the implementation of rapid cycle real-time PCR in the detection of Legionella pneumophila in water through design and development of a real-time qPCR assay based on the ZENTM probe chemistry. The assay targeted the mip gene for the fast and specific detection of Legionella pneumophila. The novel assay was very specific and fast as the amplification was obtained within 30 minutes. Sensitivity of the assay as evaluated in terms of its limit of detection (LoD) was as low as 100 cells/reaction with the quantification range between 1x103 and 1x107 cells/reaction. The assay has been confirmed for repeatability and reproducibility with approximately less than 1% mean intra- and inter-assay variations (CV%). Therefore, the assay reported can be used for a fast, sensitive and specific culture-free detection and quantification of Legionella pneumophila in water.
From fruit waste to enzymes

Published: May 2020

Domestic and municipal solid wastes pose environmental concerns and health risks, suggesting the importance of reduced waste disposal. Food waste accounts for the highest percentage of solid waste in Brunei. An effective strategy is to convert food waste into beneficial products such as enzymes and biofertilizers. This study reports utilization of inedible fruit peels as substrates for enzyme production. A fermentation medium prepared by adding fruit peels, brown sugar and water was allowed to ferment over a period of time. Total carbohydrate content was found to be highest in the fermented orange sample (37.87 ± 4.7 mg/mL) followed by pineapple and banana samples, 11.98 ± 1.45 mg/mL and 10.60 ± 0.45 mg/mL, respectively. Pineapple sample showed the highest concentration of reducing sugar (11.93 mg/mL at week 2 and 3.31 mg/mL after 3 months). Enzyme assay showed that citrus fruits like oranges, yield high activities of enzymes like protease (0.129 U/mL), α-amylase (7.261 ± 0.83 U/mL) and cellulase (0.514 ± 0.03 U/mL). This fermentation product of kitchen waste is economical as it uses cheap raw materials, free of chemical additives and hence eco-friendly.

This paper presents Chad’s Requests for Disbursement Under the Rapid Credit Facility, Extension of the Extended Credit Facility Arrangement, and Rephasing of Access. In response to the coronavirus disease 2019 outbreak, the authorities have taken strong measures to halt the community spread of the virus. They are also scaling up health-related spending and are considering a set of economic measures to support households and businesses. Given the sudden nature of the shocks and their widespread impact, the authorities will be temporarily relaxing the fiscal deficit to allow for the scaling up of health care spending and to accommodate the impact of the sharp drop in oil prices. In order to safeguard debt sustainability, they remain committed to the medium-term fiscal path and will implement the needed adjustment measures as soon as the current crisis abates.
Samoa

Published: May 2020

This paper discusses Samoa’s Request for Disbursement Under the Rapid Credit Facility. Samoa has shown resilience to multiple past economic shocks, underpinned by the authorities’ strong commitment to support the economy, and financial assistance provided by the international community. The global coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has exacerbated the impact of the measles outbreak of late-2019 on Samoa’s economy. The border closure, combined with a sudden stop of tourist arrivals and decline in remittances, has led to a precipitous fall in two vital sources of foreign earnings and resulted in an urgent balance of payments need. Beyond the immediate response, the authorities will continue to implement structural reforms, with policies appropriately balanced between safeguarding debt sustainability and promoting economic growth. They also need to continue their efforts to enhance spending efficiency, strengthen social protection programs and safety nets, further improve tax administration, strengthen public financial management, and safeguard financial stability. Addressing vulnerability to climate change remains a key medium-term challenge to create a fiscal buffer.

Ethiopia is facing a pronounced economic slowdown and an urgent balance of
payments need owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. The economy was growing robustly prior
to the pandemic, and progress under the ECF-EFF arrangements was encouraging. The shock
is expected to significantly reduce growth this fiscal year and next. It has already materially
weakened external accounts as services exports, remittances, and foreign direct investment
declined. The authorities are taking measures to combat the spread of the virus, mitigate its
fallout, and support vulnerable groups. The fiscal deficit will have to expand temporarily to
accommodate the additional spending.

Revolutions in rearing barnacles: rotating flow and substratum for culturing larvae and adults
Authors: Zardus John D , Lane Zachary M
Published: May 2020

Barnacles that live attached to dynamic surfaces, particularly species that are epizoic with marine megafauna, draw benefit from their mobile homes through assistance with passive feeding and escape from predators. A moveable substratum may also offer positive cues for their settling
larvae. In this study, we tested a technique for rearing in the laboratory, from larval stage to adult, a barnacle that associates with sea turtles, Chelonibia testudinaria. A dual-stage culturing system was devised, coupling circular tanks with rotating substrata to generate effects
of flow and motion. A round-bottomed culturing vessel with gentle cyclical flow was used to raise larvae and then induce them to settle on revolving PVC pipes. The colonized pipes were then transferred to a separate tank for grow-out with continued rotation. Though settlement rates were low,
the system proved valuable in obtaining the even distribution of a satisfactory number of juveniles across the pipes and in growing them in the laboratory for up to 2 yrs. This technique opens a variety of avenues of study for taxa that prefer or require a dynamic substratum.

Authors: Li Bing , Gao Jun
Published: May 2020

Taking the interpersonal function theory as the theoretical framework, this study selects the popular online talk show “Qi Pa speaking” in China as the data to analyze language strategies used by debaters to win votes and supports. The TV program, “Qi Pa Speaking”, is a new program format, which is popular with people at all ages. It is different from the traditional form of debating competition with serious atmosphere, on the contrary, the atmosphere of the show is relaxed and lively. The results show that the declarative and exclamatory moods are two frequently used strategies by the debaters. The declarative mood usually implies the earnest instruction, while exclamatory mood helps to make the arguments more convincing. The use of different moods also reflects the different personalities of the debaters.
Language and Power Discourse in Zulfikar Ghose’s Poetry Through Lyotard’s Deconstruction of Metanarratives
Authors: Ashraf Ayesha , Ali Sikandar , Bashir Sundes
Published: May 2020

This paper endeavors to analyze Zulfikar Ghose’s selected poems All in a Lifetime and Silent Birds in light of Jean Francois Lyotard’s theory of Postmodernism that was proposed in 1979. Ghose is a globally recognized Pakistani English poet and his poetry is enriched with pathos, sorrows and resistance against destruction caused due to the domination of modern metanarratives, such as progress, nationalism or political objectives. The current study also applies Foucault’s theoretical concept of bio power through discourse who coined this term in his The Will to Knowledge in 1988. This study highlights the chaos, fear and anxiety of the current age that is manifested in the poems, moreover, it shows the uncertainty caused by modern scientific warfare it is no more certain when and where one is going to die. The selected poems expose the relation between discourse and power, authority, domination and hegemony. The present study also demonstrates the significant role of Pakistani literature in general that attempts to resist the violence regardless of any differences. The research ends with recommendations and suggestions for further study.

of tasks in the field of ensuring security and public order remains extremely important. The scope of this support should concern,
among other things, the organisation of course trainings, the development of methodologies, instructions and training courses
for the e-learning method, and other materials in the field of subject security, and to support local authorities in organising
conferences and seminars. The above proposals to support local government administration by the Police Academy in Szczytno
would result in the use of uniform forms and principles of training, and would allow for the coordination of this training at the level
of municipalities and counties. The above would allow for more effective integration of all elements of the internal security system
in the area of security and public order, would improve the organisation of cooperation and coordination of activities, and thus would consistently improve the efficiency of operations.

Objective: To investigate whether the degree of post-warming embryo or blastocyst development is associated with clinical pregnancy in vitrified embryo or blastocyst transfer cycles.Methods: Ninety-six vitrified cleavage-stage embryos and 58 vitrified blastocyst transfer cycles were selected. All transfer cycles were performed from February 2011 to March 2019, and all vitrified embryos or blastocysts were warmed from 4 PM to 6 PM and then transferred the next morning from 9 AM to 10 AM. The scores of the cleavage-stage embryos and blastocysts were assessed at warming and at transfer using the modified Steer method and the Gardner method, respectively. The mean embryo or blastocyst score, score of the single top-quality embryo or blastocyst, and the difference in the score between warming and transfer were compared between nonpregnant and pregnant women.Results: In the cleavage-stage embryo transfer cycles, both the top-quality embryo score at transfer and the difference in the score between warming and transfer were significantly associated with clinical pregnancy. A top-quality embryo score at transfer of ≥60.0 (area under the curve [AUC], 0.673; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.531–0.815) and a difference in the score between warming and transfer of ≥23.0 (AUC, 0.675; 95% CI, 0.514–0.835) were significant predictors of clinical pregnancy. In blastocyst transfer cycles, the top-quality blastocyst score at transfer was the only significant factor associated with clinical pregnancy. A top-quality blastocyst score at transfer of ≥38.3 was a significant predictor of clinical pregnancy (AUC, 0.666; 95% CI, 0.525–0.807).Conclusion: The top-quality embryo score at transfer and the degree of post-warming embryo development were associated with clinical pregnancy in vitrified cleavage-stage embryo transfer cycles. In vitrified blastocyst transfer cycles, the top-quality blastocyst score at transfer was the only significant factor affecting clinical pregnancy.
Virtuelle Sekundärinsolvenzverfahren im europäischen Insolvenzrecht
Authors: Schumann Kevin
Published: May 2020

Auch das Flaggschiff europäischer Insolvenzgesetzgebung, die EUInsVO, konnte sich den Bestrebungen des Unionsgesetzgebers zur Etablierung einer europäischen „Sanierungskultur“ nicht verschließen. Die Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit der im Zuge dieser Entwicklung neu eingeführten Möglichkeit zur Abgabe einer Zusicherung gem. Art. 36 EUInsVO. Die Norm stellt eine Rechtsgrundlage zur Verfügung, aufgrund derer in Europa nun flächendeckend virtuelle Sekundärinsolvenzverfahren durchgeführt werden können. Die Idee besteht darin, Sekundärverfahren zu vermeiden, indem den Gläubigern vom Hauptinsolvenzverwalter zugesagt wird, dass sie so gestellt werden, wie wenn ein Sekundärverfahren im jeweiligen Mitgliedstaat durchgeführt worden wäre. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, durch Handlungsempfehlungen einen möglichen Weg aufzuzeigen, damit die europäische Zusicherung – trotz der vielfach geäußerten Kritik – tatsächlich einen sinnvollen Beitrag zur Abwicklung grenzüberschreitender Insolvenzen leisten kann.
Resistencias ciudadanas a la mercantilización del proceso de reconstrucción: los sismos de 2017 en Ciudad de México e Ixtepec
Authors: Arnold Pierre , Ponce Arancibia Natalia , Soto Delgado Lisette
Published: May 2020

Este artículo ofrece una aproximación a los efectos de los sismos del 7 y 19 de septiembre de 2017 en México, particularmente desde la política de reconstrucción del parque habitacional en Ciudad Ixtepec, estado de Oaxaca, y Ciudad de México. A pesar de las características espaciales y socioculturales disímiles entre ambos territorios se observa de manera transversal la implementación de estrategias de reconstrucción promotoras de esquemas de financiamiento que radicalizan el fenómeno de mercantilización de la vivienda. Los procesos de reconstrucción emprendidos a la fecha en estas ciudades permiten analizar las lógicas que han orientado la política habitacional y comprender cómo los desastres se transforman en oportunidades para el mercado inmobiliario y el sector de la construcción, sin importar el contexto socio-territorial en donde se implementan. Asimismo, este escenario permite observar las reacciones y resistencias de los damnificados frente a las opciones de reconstrucción de viviendas promovidas por el Estado.

This article offers an approximation to the effects of the earthquakes of September 7 and 19, 2017 in Mexico, particularly from the reconstruction policy of the housing stock in Ciudad Ixtepec, Oaxaca State, and Mexico City. Despite the dissimilar spatial and sociocultural characteristics of both territories, it is possible to observe in a transversal way the implementation of reconstruction, promoters of financing schemes that radicalize the phenomenon of commodification of housing. The reconstruction processes undertaken until now in these cities allow us to analyse the neoliberal logics in housing policy and understand how disasters are transformed into opportunities for the real estate market and the construction sector, regardless of the socio-territorial context where they are implement Likewise, this scenario allows to observe the reactions and resistances of the affected families in front of the housing reconstruction options promoted by the State.
Trayectorias migratorias de familias bolivianas en la villa 20 (Argentina): estrategias familiares y plurilocalidad entre la ciudad de Buenos Aires y ciudades bolivianas
Authors: Diaz Mariela Paula
Published: May 2020

Esta ponencia se propone analizar las trayectorias migratorias de los migrantes indígenas (aymaras y quechuasnacidos en Bolivia) que residen en la Villa 20 de la ciudad de Buenos Aires (Argentina), y su relación con la noción de plurilocalidad, durante el periodo 1985-2018. Cabe destacar que la Villa 20, ubicada en el suroeste de la ciudad, es la cuarta villa más poblada del país y concentra población migrante de los países limítrofes, especialmente de origen boliviana. Además, está sujeta a una política de reurbanización por parte del gobierno local, de este modo surge la necesidad de indagar sobre las vinculaciones existentes entre una política de regeneración urbana y la dimensión dinámica del territorio que contribuya a reflexionar sobre procesos globales que se viven a escala local. Finalmente, esta investigación adoptó una estrategia metodológica cuantitativa,considerada el primer eslabón para un posterior abordaje cualitativo, incorporando datos de fuentes primarias y secundarias.

This paper aims to analyze the migratory trajectories of indigenous migrants (Aymara and Quechua born in Bolivia) residing in Villa 20 in the city of Buenos Aires (Argentina), and its relationship with the notion of pluri-locality, during the 1985- 2018 It should be noted that Villa 20, located in the southwest of the city, is the fourth most populated village in the country and concentrates migrant population of bordering countries, especially of Bolivian origin. In addition, it is subject to a redevelopment policy by the local government, thus the need arises to investigate the links between a policy of urban regeneration and the dynamic dimension of the territory that contributes to reflect on global processes that are experienced local scale. Finally, this research adopted a quantitative methodological strategy, considered the first link for a subsequent qualitative approach, incorporating data from primary and secondary sources.
Las nuevas formas de la metrópolis: tejidos metropolitanos, ríos y cuencas, flujos de movilidad, reservas y multiescalaridad en las metrópolis latinoamericanas contemporáneas
Authors: Jaimes César , Amette Roberto
Published: May 2020

La presente investigación apunta al estudio y a la producción de nuevas versiones de forma urbana metropolitana en escalas precisas de particular relevancia, tomando como caso a la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires en comparación con otros casos latinoamericanos. El trabajo tiene eje en dos objetivos que se retroalimentan: en primer lugar, la producción de un cuerpo de conocimiento que permita su transferencia en el ámbito académico, y en segundo lugar, la identificación de pautas fundamentales de generación y transformación de la forma urbana que, siendo sistémicas en la dinámica de urbanización de la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, puedan nutrir el diseño de políticas públicas en la materia a través de la producción de instrumentos de actuación específicos. La presente ponencia presenta parte de los resultados del primer año de investigación.

This project points to both research and produce new versions of metropolitan urban form in particularly relevant scales, focusing on Buenos Aires Metropolitan Region in comparison with other Latin American metropolitan areas. The work rests on two goals that feedback each other: first, the production of a body of knowledge transferable to academic environments, and in a second place, the identification of certain fundamental blueprints for generating and transforming urban form, systemic to the urbanization dynamics in Buenos Aires Metropolitan Region and thus capable of nurturing the design of specific public policies through the production of specific intervention instruments. This paper advances some of the results produced during the first year of the research.
De la Centralidad Barrial a la Centralidad Metropolitana: análisis morfológico-espacial de las estructuras de centralidad de Manta, Ecuador
Authors: Zambrano Loor Fernando Javier
Published: May 2020

El presente trabajo busca entender las lógicas del funcionamiento de la ciudad para comprender la conexión inevitable entre los centros barriales con el resto del territorio. Mediante el análisis empírico que nos da el conocimiento de los casos de estudio, se categorizan los diferentes ámbitos de influencia en los barrios en los que se observa centralidad. Se parte del estudio de las lógicas de emplazamiento, lafuncionalidad de la malla urbana y el cambio en su tejido social que le otorgan características de centralidad; mediante el uso de fotos históricas aéreas se pudo evidenciar la construcción de la estructura urbana y así determinar cuando aparecieron las distintas actividades que le dieron el carácter de centralidad emergente; en contraposición, se analizó el cambio de escala de estas estructuras, se evidenciaron cuáles de éstas tienen una influencia en el resto del territorio y empiezan a formar relaciones más fuertes con las ciudades conurbadas de Montecristi y Jaramijó.

This paper seeks to understand the logic of the operation of the city to understand the inevitable connection between the neighborhood centers with the rest of the territory. Through the empirical analysis that gives us the knowledge of the case studies, the different movements of influence in the neighborhoods where centrality is observed are classified. It is based on the study of the location logics, the functionality of the urban network and the change in its social fabric that give it characteristics of centrality; through the use of historical aerial photos the construction of the urban structure could be evidenced and thus determine when the different activities that gave it the character of emerging centrality appeared; In contrast, the change in the scale of these structures was analyzed, the risk of having an influence on the restoration of the territory and the strongest relations with the conurbation cities of Montecristi and Jaramijó were evidenced.
