EFFICIENCY OF THE USE OF SUPERCRITICAL EXTRACTION TECHNOLOGIE IN THE RECOVERY OF ETHYLENE OXIDE
Authors: Akhcmetlatyypova D. D. , Gumerov F. M. , Telyakov E. Sh.
Published: August 2018

The article considers a model of supercritical СО2 ‒ extraction technology of ethylene oxide emission from its aqueous solution, which is proposed to replace energy consuming desorption process. The possibility of using normal alkanes as modifiers of the main extractant is considered. A comparative analysis of the energy consumption ofsupercritical and traditional technologies is carried out.

Methods. The Hysys program was used to model the processes.

Results.Was simmulated the extraction process of ethylene oxide separation from its aqueous solution using as an extractant pure and modified with propane, n-butane, n-pentane supercritical carbon dioxide supplemented with further purification and concentration of the desired product.The results indicate the inappropriateness of using n-butane and n-pentane as an additive to carbon dioxide. Comparison of three technological schemes (traditional and two extraction schemes with pure and modified carbon dioxide) shows that the energy consumption for heating the rectification columns is significantly lower in the case of SC-CO2 extraction technologies (115 MW ‒ traditional technology, 36 and 79 MW for SC ‒ CO2 extraction technology without additives and with the addition of propane, respectively), while the combined capacities of pumps and compressors were the least for traditional technology. But, since the degree of extraction of ethylene oxide in the extraction scheme with the addition of propane turned out to be practically equal to unity (0.996), the considered energy indices, referred to the kilogram of the product obtained, turned out to be the best for this scheme.

Authors: Savenko A. E. , Savenko P. S.
Published: August 2018

The application of autonomous electric power equipment having in their composition parallel operating diesel-generator sets on the basis of synchronous generators is considered. The problem of existence of exchange power fluctuations in such technical systems is described. A mathematical model has been developed that makes it possible to carry out investigations of an autonomous electric power equipment. The technique for constructing maps of the amplitude of the exchange power fluctuations, from the backlash gaps in the speed control circuits of diesel generators is obtained. The use of such cards makes it possible to introduce recommendations on limiting the amplitude of exchange power fluctuations to normative documents, both of a general nature, and specifically for certain types of equipment. In the same way, the cards make it possible to determine the gap gaps existing in the frequency control loop from the measured amplitudes of the exchange power fluctuations.

KRITIK HADIS BERBASIS USHUL FIQHIYAH: Reposisi Sunnah dalam Diskursus (Hukum) Islam Kontemporer
Authors: Fawaid Achmad
Published: August 2018

This article is aimed to figure out the significant position of Hadis in the midst of contemporary discourse of Islamic legal theory in general, or in Ushul Fiqh in specific, on which Al Quran and Sunnah were based for law determination. In the history of Islamic development, there have been two major models of evaluation of Hadis, either by Muhaddits or by Ushuliyyun, which unfortunately offered no systematic methodology pertaining to make a clear of the position, of the function, and of the epistemological value of Hadis in legal theory (also in theological, philosophical, mystical fields of knowledge). This study attempts to (re)conceptualize a scope of Al Quran and Sunnah in the pre-classical Islamic period, which notably characterized an important hermeneutic relationship between both of them, and to make critical questions of classical Muhaddits’ and Ushuliyyun’s methodologies, which focused merely on ‘normative’ issues of isnad and mutawatir, contributing to the negation of primordial-hermeneutic relationship Al Quran and Sunnah and to the hypothetic assumption that the only objective of Hadis was to concern with textual authenticity (shahih) or narrators’ knowledge (mutawatir). By offering a new methodology which makes a question of both models of evaluation and provides a historical retention of hermeneutic relationship between Al Quran and Sunnah, this article was considerably to build an ethic-religious synthesis between Ulumul Hadis and Ushul Fiqh. Keywords: Al Quran, Sunnah, Hadis, Ushul Fiqh
MUHAMMAD SYAHRUR DAN TEORI LIMITNYA
Authors: Saifuddin Saifuddin
Published: August 2018

Ketika Islam berhadapan dengan modernitas, maka sekian problematika muncul. Banyak usaha yang dilakukan oleh para pemikir Muslim untuk merspon persoalan tersebut. Salah satunya adalah Muhammad Syahrur. Di samping menawarkan solusi, Syahrur juga menjadi pengisi kekurangan pemikiran-pemikiran sebelumnya terutama pemikiran Fazlurrahman. Fazlurrahman datang dengan mengajukan tesis double movement theory yang bertumpu kepada kontekstualisasi ayat-ayat al-Qur’an dengan konteks kekinian. Teori Rahman mentok ketika tidak semua  ayat al-Qur’an memiliki asbab al-nuzul. Kelemahan teori Rahman ini kemudian ditutupi oleh Muhammad Syahrur dengan mengajukan teori limit. Artikel sederhana ini membahas teori yang diusung oleh Muhammad Syahrur dan bagaimana contoh-contohnya dalam penerapan hukum Islam. Kata kunci: Muhammad Syahrur, Teori limit, Hukum Islam

The values of divinity and humanity are two aspects cannot be separated in living religion. The presence of God in every human being is a necessity and can undeniable. Meanwhile, people are also individuals who connected from other humans, because humans are social creatures. Therefore, faith must be proportional to the good deeds. Transgender as part of social life is also trying to prove them self as being godless creatures and social beings. The purpose is realized by establishing special schools transgender (pesantren waria). Pesantren founded in Yogyakarta became the fi rst transgender pesantren in Indonesia and even in the world. In the midst of the claim, transgender is a sinner ungrateful creature nature. Transgender showed up with his spiritual experience. Experiences are certainly cannot be equated with spiritual experiences that experienced by a kiyai, santri, scholars. They are regarded righteous in the eyes of society. Through this article, the author will try to give an idea of the spiritual experience of transgender in religion. Through this article, the author does not want to judge and claim their religious pattern of right or wrong. As well as this article, is expected to add a new discourse for the reader about the spirit and transgender spiritual experience. So, it can open a religious pattern that is more inclusive and open.

PERSOALAN KEHIDUPAN KONTEMPORER: MENGGAGAS KAJIAN SACHEDINA TENTANG THEOLOGI PLURALISME
Authors: Dodi Limas
Published: August 2018

According to Abdulaziz Sachedina, the main argument of religious pluralism in the Qur’an based on the relationship between private belief (personal) and public projection of Islam in society. By regarding to private faith, the Qur’an being noninterventionist (for example, all forms of human authority should not be disturb the inner beliefs of individuals). While the public projection of faith, the Qur’an attitude based on the principle of coexistence. There is the willingness of the dominant race provide the freedom for people of other faiths with their own rules. Rules could shape how to run their affairs and to live side by side with the Muslims. Thus, based on the principle that the people of Indonesia are Muslim majority, it should be a mirror of a societie’s recognizion, respects and execution of religious pluralism. Abdul Aziz Sachedina called for Muslims to rediscover the moral concerns of public Islam in peace. The call for peace seemed to indicate that the existence of increasingly weakened in the religious sense of the Muslims and hence need to be reaffi rmed. Sachedina also like to emphasize that the position of peace in Islam is parallel with a variety of other doctrines, such as: prayer, fasting, pilgrimage and so on. Sachedina also tried to show the argument that the common view among religious groups is only one religion and traditions of other false and worthless. “Antipluralist” argument comes amid the reality of human religious differences.

Authors: Dewi Subkhani Kusuma
Published: August 2018

Spiritual tourism though factually is not a new phenomenon, but a perspective in the perspective of sociology of religion gets its place, especially when tourism becomes a global trend of religious consumerism. In addition to Hajj, and rihlah, Umrah which is included in the journey of ziyarah is one of spiritual tourism trend. In practice spiritual tourism also infl uenced and infl uenced by religious discourse, including also understanding of what is called as sunnah. By using the concept of spiritual tourism taken from the perspective of sociology, this paper further utilizes the perspective of the umroh and haj travel bureaus on what is called the sunnah, where the umrah is one of them. The results of the analysis show that research that does not merely depart from popular culture shows the important role of travel agency forming a strategy in attracting pilgrims by not only binding umrah as a recreation / traveling, but also placing it as a worship.

Authors: Fernández Tapia Joselito
Published: August 2018

Objetivo: sistematizar y explicar la relación entre TIC y ciudadanía, principalmente a partir del Internet.Metodología: se aplica un método cualitativo, basado en las entrevistas a profundidad, la observación participante y el análisis de contenido de las páginas web. El estudio responde a un enfoque transnacional e intercultural de la integración y la ciudadanía.Resultados: se evidencia un transnacionalismo de Estado, así como de redes transnacionales crecientes a través de las nuevas Tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC). Éstas, vinculan redes directas en las que se realizan prácticas sociales que reproducen y reconfiguran relaciones, identidades y formas de percibirse y realizarse como ciudadanos, respecto a su país de origen y de destino. Estas redes y transnacioalismo forman espacios transnacionales en los que realizan prácticas y derechos ciudadanos, que van desde los civiles y económicos hasta los identitarios y políticos. Con el paso del tiempo, se perciben en su mayoría, como ciudadanos respecto de su país de origen y de la Ciudad de México.Conclusiones: se concluye que existe la formación de ciudadanías transnacionales, la reinvención y reproducción del Estado-nación en el espacio de los flujos y de los lugares y la emergencia de la Ciudadanía Transnacional Digital
Acción colectiva y gobernanza del Centro Histórico de Mazatlán, México. Recuperación y conversión a espacio turístico
Authors: Nava Zazueta Miriam , Valenzuela Camacho Blas
Published: August 2018

Objetivo: explicar la acción colectiva que propició la recuperación del Centro Histórico de Mazatlán como espacio cultural y esparcimiento para la sociedad local y el posterior sistema de gobernanza que impulsó su incorporación a la oferta turística.Metodología: bajo un enfoque cualitativo, se articuló la conceptualización teórica respecto a la acción colectiva, al sistema de gobernanza y su incidencia en el desempeño económico de los lugares. A través del análisis de documentos históricos, se explica este proceso y se enriquece con la narrativa de entrevistas a informantes clave. A partir de la información, se explica el conjunto de acciones y decisiones que lograron revitalizar el área y las dinámicas que incorporan la zona a la oferta turística de destino.Resultado: se encontró que la comunidad asumió este espacio como un bien común fundamental para su identidad, quedando la industria turística al margen de este movimiento. Una vez recuperada la zona, la dinámica común propició, de manera incidental, un espacio que se ha convertido en ícono de la localidad y parte del producto turístico.Conclusiones: la acción colectiva que promovió la recuperación del Casco Antiguo fue motivada por objetivos no económicos. La aglomeración de empresas propició un sistema de gobernanza que incorporó la zona a la oferta turística del destino como estrategia para mejorar su competitividad en los mercados. Se oferta a Mazatlán como el “único destino de sol y playa con un centro histórico patrimonio de la nación”.

Published: August 2018

Objetivo: identificar los determinantes del acceso a Internet en los hogares colombianos durante el 2013. Metodología: se incorporaron las características socioeconómicas dentro de un modelo de elección discreta, con el fin de realizar estimaciones sobre la probabilidad del acceso a Internet en los hogares colombianos. Esto se hizo con base en los microdatos de la encuesta de calidad de vida realizada por el DANE.Resultados: se encontró un aumento notorio del uso de Internet en Colombia: en 2007, el 17% de los colombianos tenía Internet en sus hogares, mientras que en el 2013 llega al 35,66% de la población. El ingreso es el indicador con mayor efecto en el acceso a Internet. El estudio también evidencia brechas de género significativas, ya que el acceso a este servicio resulta ser mayor para los hombres que para las mujeres. Igualmente, se detectaron amplias diferencias entre localizaciones y niveles educativos en relación con el acceso a Internet.Conclusiones: el acceso y tenencia del servicio de Internet ha venido aumentando en Colombia y en América Latina. Sin embargo, dicho proceso no se ha dado de manera homogénea para diferentes grupos de la población. El estudio también concluye que la reducción de las inequidades en relación con el acceso a las TIC, seguirá dependiendo, por mucho tiempo, de soluciones colectivas o públicas.
El movimiento estudiantil de 1968 en México: imágenes periodísticas, usuarios y emociones en el ciberespacio
Authors: González Victoria Rosa María
Published: August 2018

Objetivo: identificar las emociones como una forma de vínculo social, de relacionarse con el mundo, de interiorizar las normas sociales y refrendar la moral social, mediante el análisis de un sistema de comentarios generado por un fotorreportaje publicado en un portal de Internet por un diario de la capital.Metodología: estudio de caso, con enfoque cualitativo de análisis de la imagen y del discurso. Se seleccionó un caso latente en la memoria colectiva: la masacre de estudiantes el 2 de octubre de 1968 en la Plaza de las Tres Culturas, en Tlatelolco. Las categorías utilizadas fueron: “anclaje”, uso de adjetivos, frases hechas, sinécdoque, generalización, cantidad, victimización, despersonalización y personalización.Resultados: se detectó la crónica de una masacre anunciada y el papel que juega un fotorreportaje en la detonación de emociones sustentadas con razones. Las emociones provocadas por el género periodístico, se configuraron en un vínculo social entre los internautas quienes mostraron empatía y compartieron expresiones de tristeza, coraje y rabia. Conclusiones: las imágenes se perciben como evidencias de “la realidad”, no así los textos que las explican. Si bien las redes sociales funcionan como una válvula de escape tienen la capacidad, siguiendo la propuesta de García Canclini, de “desactivar una operación maquiavélica hecha desde la pirámide del poder”.

Published: August 2018

Objetivo: determinar el nivel de incorporación de la norma ISO 26000 en las organizaciones empresariales, según las leyes colombianas.Metodología: se realizó un análisis documental a cerca de 8.000 leyes colombianas relacionadas con cuatro categorías: Organizacional, Social, Ambiental y Operacional, las cuales se derivaron de los siete temas y 38 subtemas que componen la Norma Guía ISO 26000 de Responsabilidad Social. El alcance descriptivo de la realidad legislativa colombiana, focalizada en las cuatro categorías de análisis mencionadas, fue posible tras el diligenciamiento de una matriz en la cual se condensan los hallazgos de esta investigación.Resultados: se estableció un nivel del 58% de incorporación de las organizaciones empresariales privadas. El estudio también evidenció un componente diferenciador de las organizaciones empresariales de capital público, las llamadas Empresas Industriales y Comerciales del Estado -EICE´s-, ya que en ellas se halló un nivel de incorporación del 83%.Conclusiones: la diferencia entre los dos tipos de organizaciones (empresariales privadas y empresariales de capital público) radica en que en las EICE´s es obligatoria la rendición pública de cuentas y todos los demás elementos de la categoría Organizacional, lo que no pasa en las privadas. También se concluye que en ambos tipos de empresas los aspectos ambientales, de derechos laborales y derechos de los consumidores están incorporados en su totalidad.

This paper seeks to analyze integration processes and their organizational support in the context of company development along with revealing the nature and essence of integration and consolidation processes. It has been proved that the efficiency of these processes stems from specific rationale behind existing relationships. The first three development phases evidence the prevalence of integration processes based on cooperation and contractual relationships, whereas the final stages are characterized by more rigid integration forms (vertical, horizontal, diversified, mixed) on the basis of mergers, acquisitions, buyouts, etc. The study revealed that in the process of organizational development a company may lose some of the advantages of small and medium companies, such as the simplicity of organizational structure, management consistency as well as creativity, flexibility, leadership and versatility of personnel. To retain these benefits, in the process of organizational design of a large company it is proposed to provide the ability to create flexible and mobile units through corporate clustering of integration participants. The cyclical nature of organizational development assumes that the cumulative effect of business growth factors gradually fade over time, thus becoming a trigger and a cause of recession. In turn, the recession acts as a catalyst for future recovery. The research findings on integration processes offer organizational support to facilitate the company development phases within the objectives tree framework. Specific features and conditions for effective implementation of each of the major objectives of company organizational development have been identified.

Efforts to understand the causes of psychopathology have remained stifled in part because current practices do not clearly describe how psychological constructs differ from biological phenomena and how to integrate them in unified explanations. The present article extends recent work in philosophy of science by proposing a framework called mechanistic science as a promising way forward. This approach maintains that integrating psychological and biological phenomena involves demonstrating how psychological functions are implemented in biological structures. Successful early attempts to advance mechanistic explanations of psychological phenomena are reviewed, and lessons are derived to show how the framework can be applied to a range of clinical psychological phenomena including gene by environment findings, computational models of reward processing in schizophrenia, and self-related processes in personality pathology. Pursuing a mechanistic approach can ultimately facilitate more productive and successful collaborations across a range of disciplines.
Path in directed graph with time duration at each vertex
Authors: Nguyen Thinh D.
Published: August 2018

We have to find a path in a directed graph, possibly where we get to the same vertices/edges also more than once, and where we remain in each vertex for a non-negative rational amount of time allowed by the minimum/maximum duration function, such that the overall time of the path equals to some given value h. This can be solved easily in PSPACE. We want to show that it is in NP (we already know it is NP-hard). This is not trivial to prove. The required path may have length exponential in both |𝑉| and in the binary encoding of h.

The aim of this study was to explore if a conservative response criterion is responsible for non-conscious perception of facial expressions during continuous flash suppression (CFS). We hypothesized that participants’ sensitivity in a detection task would be significantly lower than their sensitivity in a 2-alternative forced-choice (2AFC) task while using CFS. After rendering images of faces with different facial expression (fearful vs. neutral) invisible for 500 milliseconds (ms) and 700 ms using CFS, participants judged the presence/absence of the faces with a detection task and the emotion of faces with a 2AFC task. When we rendered the face stimuli invisible for 500 ms, participants discriminated the signal (fearful face) from noise (neutral face) by having a higher sensitivity in the 2AFC task compared to the detection task. When we rendered the face stimuli invisible for 700 ms, the difference between participants’ sensitivities in the two tasks disappeared.
Welfare tradeoff psychology is present in children and adults

Making decisions in a social context often requires weighing one's own wants against the needs and preferences of others. Adults are adept at incorporating multiple contextual features when deciding how to trade off their welfare against another. For example, they are more willing to forgo a resource to benefit friends over strangers (a feature of the individual) or when the opportunity cost of giving up the resource is low (a feature of the situation). When does this capacity emerge in development? In Experiment 1 (N = 208), we assessed the decisions of 4- to 10-year-old children in a picture-based resource tradeoff task to test two questions: (1) When making repeated decisions to either benefit themselves or benefit another person, are children’s choices internally consistent with a particular valuation of that individual? (2) Do children value friends more highly than strangers and enemies? We find that children demonstrate consistent person-specific welfare valuations and value friends more highly than strangers and enemies. In Experiment 2 (N = 200), we tested adults using the same pictorial method. The pattern of results successfully replicated, but adults’ decisions were more consistent than children’s and they expressed more extreme valuations: relative to the children, they valued friends more and valued enemies less. We conclude that despite children’s limited experience allocating resources and navigating complex social networks, they behave like adults in that they reference a stable person-specific valuation when deciding whether to benefit themselves or another and that this rule is modulated by the child’s relationship with the target.
Isn't it eyeronic? Little evidence for consistent eye colour choices across relationships

This study examined the anecdotal notion that people choose partners based on preferred characteristics that constitute their ‘type’. We gathered the eye colours of participants’ partners across their entire romantic history in three samples (student-centred, adult, and celebrity). We calculated the proportion of partners’ eye colours, and compared that to 100,000 random permutations of our observed dataset using t-tests. This was to investigate if the eye colour choices in the original datasets had greater consistency than in the permutations. Across all samples, we observed no good evidence that individuals make consistent eye colour choices, suggesting that eye colour may not be a priority when choosing a partner.
Factors Influencing University Students’ Explicit and Implicit Sexual Double Standards
Authors: Sakaluk John Kitchener , Milhausen Robin

Quantitative research has resulted in inconsistent evidence for the existence of a sexual double standard, leading Crawford and Popp (2003) to issue a call for methodological innovation. The Implicit Association Test (IAT; Greenwald, McGhee, & Schwartz, 1998) is a measure that may provide a means to examine the double standard without the contamination of the demand characteristics and social desirability biases that plague self-report research (Marks & Fraley, 2005). The purpose of this study was to examine the factors influencing explicit and implicit double standards, and to examine the relationship between these explicit and implicit double standards, and levels of socially desirable responding. 103 university students completed a sexual double standard IAT, an explicit measure of the double standard and measures of socially desirable responding. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that levels of socially desirable responding were not related to implicit or explicit double standards. Men endorsed a stronger explicit traditional double standard than women, whereas for implicit sexual standards, men demonstrated a relatively gender-neutral evaluation and women demonstrated a strong reverse double standard. These results suggest the existence of a complex double standard, and indicate that more research of sexual attitudes should include implicit measures.
The erogenous mirror: Intersubjective and multisensory maps of sexual arousal

Erogenous zones of the body are sexually arousing when touched. Previous investigations of erogenous zones were restricted to the effects of touch on one’s own body. However, sexual interactions do not just involve being touched, but also involve touching a partner and mutually looking at each other’s bodies. We take a novel interpersonal approach to characterize the self-reported intensity and distribution of erogenous zones in two modalities: touch and vision. A large internet sample of 613 participants (407 women) completed a questionnaire, where they rated intensity of sexual arousal relate to different body parts, both on one’s own body and on an imagined partner’s body in response to being touched but also being looked at. We report the presence of a multimodal erogenous mirror between sexual partners, as we observed clear correspondences in topographic distributions of self-reported arousal between individuals’ own bodies and their preferences for a partner’s body, as well as between those elicited by imagined touch and vision. The erogenous body is therefore organized and represented in an interpersonal and multisensory way.
Investigating Instagram as an EFL Learning Tool

Published: August 2018

Research on Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL), Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL), and Computer Mediated Communication (CMC) has informed us that the adaptation of new technologies helps in overcoming some of the challenges faced in language classrooms; such as the limited classroom time (Cardoso & Collins, 2016). In light of CALL, MALL, and CMC research, the purpose of this corpus driven study was to investigate the potential of the Instagram platform in learning English as a foreign language (EFL): particularly whether the type of Instagram post (vocabulary or grammar) had an effect on the amount of learners’ EFL output, the output accuracy, and the amount of feedback the learners received. The data was collected from authentic EFL use from the comments section of 15 Instagram accounts that were targeting the Saudi learners as their population. A total of 140 comments were analyzed (70 for vocabulary and 70 for grammar). A non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was carried out and indicated a statistical significance Z (140)= -2.38, p. = 017 for output, with a relatively small effect size (d = .438), showing that vocabulary posts elicited more output from the commenters. However, post types did not have any influence on learners’ output accuracy and the amount of feedback they received. From a pedagogical standpoint, teachers are encouraged to use social media as means for creating language practice opportunities, and as a source of extra input outside the classroom.
