Introduction: Adequate surface hardness of the resin composites is important to obtain optimum clinical performance of the restoratives in stress dental bearing areas. For light-activated resin composites, polymerization begins when curing light initiates polymerization and continues after the curing light goes off. The degree of conversion and hardness of resin composite is also affected by post-irradiation time. The objective of this study was to evaluate the difference of the hardness hybrid resin composite based on post-irradiation time at 10 minutes, 24 hours, and 7 days with photoactivated light-emitting diode (LED) to obtain the optimum hardness. Methods: This study was using a true experimental research method. Thirty samples of hybrid resin composites, disk-shaped of 6 mm in diameter and 2 mm in depth were polymerized by LED LCU at 800mW/cm2 for 20 seconds. The hardness of the resin composite was measured by Vickers Hardness Tester. The result was analyzed statistically with ANOVA. Results: There was a significant difference level of hardness among the three groups. Hardness mean value for post-irradiation time at 10 minutes was 56,4 VHN, for post-irradiation time at 24 hours was 65,8 VHN, and for post-irradiation time at 7 days was 60,0 VHN. Conclusion: There were differences level of hybrid resin composite’s hardness based on the post-irradiation time at 10 minutes, 24 hours, and 7 days with photoactivated LED and the optimum hardness of post-irradiation time at 24 hours.

Authors: Balasubramanian I.
Published: May 2020

Wire electrical discharge machining is used in machining electric conductive materials with intricate shapes and profiles. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the influence of cutting conditions of WEDM on surface roughness and cutting width of machining of AA6063/SiC composites. Here a semi cylindrical piece is removed from a rectangular plate of AA6063/SiC composites plate fabricated with reinforcing SiC in 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% weight fractions through stir casting. The effect of WEDM parameters such as pulse on time, pulse off time and peak current on surface roughness and cutting width on different composition of AA6063/SiC were analyzed for circular contour machining. The experimental results show that increase in percentage of SiC has high influence in mechanical behavior of AA6063/SiC composites and the effect of pulse on time is very significant in reducing the surface roughness and pulse off time plays an important role in producing minimum cutting width.
Analysis of Speaker Verification System Using Support Vector Machine
Authors: Shanmugapriya P , Venkataramani Y.
Published: May 2020

The integration of GMM- super vector and Support Vector Machine (SVM) has become one of most popular strategy in text-independent speaker verification system.Â  This paper describes the application of Fuzzy Support Vector Machine (FSVM) for classification of speakers using GMM-super vectors. Super vectors are formed by stacking the mean vectors of adapted GMMs from UBM using maximum a posteriori (MAP). GMM super vectors characterize speakerâ€™s acoustic characteristics which are used for developing a speaker dependent fuzzy SVM model. Introducing fuzzy theory in support vector machine yields better classification accuracy and requires less number of support vectors. Experiments were conducted on 2001 NIST speaker recognition evaluation corpus. Performance of GMM-FSVM based speaker verification system is compared with the conventional GMM-UBM and GMM-SVM based systems.Â  Experimental results indicate that the fuzzy SVM based speaker verification system with GMM super vector achieves better performance to GMM-UBM system.

The influence of various catalytic coatings in combustion chamber(cylinder head inner surface, piston, valve) results in tremendous changes in the various parameters of the GHSI engine. The Exhaust temperature for Copper coating was higher compared to Aluminium oxide coating and Chromium oxide coating. It is noticed that, brake thermal efficiency was thus improved in almost all operation conditions with the Methanol fuels. The HC and Â CO emissions are higher at Methanol fuelled with Copper coating. NOx and Smoke emissions are lower for Chromium oxide coating compared to Copper coating and Aluminium oxide coating. Among all coatings, Copper coating exhibits better efficiency and lower emission compared to other coatings.

Published: May 2020

This paper describes an automatic heartbeat recognition based on QRS detection, feature extraction and classification. In this paper five different type of ECG beats of MIT BIH arrhythmia database are automatically classified. The proposed method involves QRS complex detection based on the differences and approximation derivation, inversion and threshold method. The computation of combined Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT) of hybrid features coefficients are obtained from the QRS segmented beat from ECG signal which are then used as a feature vector. Then the feature vectors are given to Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and k- Nearest Neighbor (kNN) classifier for automatic classification of heartbeat. The performance of the proposed system is measured by sensitivity, specificity and accuracy measures.

Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCC) is a medical imaging technique used to examine parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Computer aided detection is used to increase the speed of detection, better performance and reduce the time. Before finding the bleeding regions the edge regions are first detected and removed. Both the edge and the bleeding regions will share the same Hue value and the luminance should be same for the bleeding and the non -bleeding regions .We use a canny edge detector operator for detecting the edge regions in L channel. Canny edge detector is used to detect more edge pixels and preserve more bleeding pixels based up on canny edge algorithm. This method in edge removal algorithm includes edge detection, edge dilation and edge masking. After the removal of edges, those regions are made in to segment through super-pixel segmentation and regions are classified using Artificial Neural Network by Radial Bias Function (RBF).Â
Experimental Investigation on the Effect of Casting Parameters on Thin walled Castings of Metal Matrix (LM21-SiC) Composite

Â Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are widely used in several applications owing to their high strength, high specific stiffness, greater wear resistance and light weight. Normally, MMCs are processed through stir casting which exhibits poor wet ability and bonding between metal matrix and ceramic reinforcement, porosity and hot tears. These drawbacks can be overcome by squeeze casting process. Here an attempt was made on processing LM21-Sic composite for making hollow casting through squeeze casting process. Four process parameters are chosen namely squeeze pressure, stirring speed, melt temperature and reinforcement percentage. The primary objective was to experimentally investigate the influence of casting parameters on hardness & wear. Samples were cast for each experiments condition based on L9 orthogonal array. From the analysis of variance (ANOVA), it was observed that stirring speed, reinforcement percentage and Squeeze load were the process parameters making a noticeable improvement in hardness and wear. The mechanical properties such as hardness and wear are evaluated and optimum casting condition was obtained.

Published: May 2020

This article discusses about the influence of Islamic culture in the land of Minahasa of North Sulawesi Province based on archaeological studies. Minahasa is the biggest ethnic area in North Sulawesi Province, with the majority of the population being Christians. Islam arrival in Minahasa carried by Arab traders, fisherman from North Maluku, Bugis, Makasar, Gorontalo and political prisoners from Java and Sumatera. The early history of Islam in Minahasa, acculturation process, development, and Islamic influence in Minahasa can be traced by using archaelogical studies based on existing physical cultural. Research on Islamic culture in Minahasa specifically based on archaeological studies has not been done before. The previous researches of the same topic were mostly conducted through nonphysical culture. The result of the observation reveals that the influence of Islamic culture in Minahasa comprises of some Islamic Settlements, Mosques, and Islamic Cemetery. The influence of Islamic culture in Minahasa coastal area and inland has different characters due to different historical background, socio cultural, and political background of the Islamic communities. Artikel ini membahas mengenai pengaruh kebudayaan Islam di tanah Minahasa, Propinsi Sulawesi Utara berdasarkan tinggalan arkeologi. Minahasa merupakan wilayah etnis terbesar di Propinsi Sulawesi Utara dengan mayoritas penduduk beragama Kristen. Agama Islam di Minahasa dibawa oleh pedagang-pedagang Arab serta, nelayan dari Maluku Utara, Bugis, Makasar, Gorontalo dan tahanan politik dari Jawa dan Sumatera. Dengan menggunakan kajian arkeologi, dapat ditelusuri sejarah awal masuknya Islam, proses akulturasi yang terjadi, perkembangan dan pengaruh Islam di Minahasa berdasarkan tinggalan kebudayaan fisiknya. Penelitian mengenai kebudayaan Islam di Minahasa dengan menggunakan kajian arkeologi secara khusus belum pernah dilakukan, penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya mengkaji dengan menggunakan tinggalan kebudayaan non fisik yang ada. Hasil pengamatan di lapangan, pengaruh kebudayaan Islam yang terdapat di Minahasa berupa: permukiman Islam, masjid, dan pemakaman (kubur) Islam. Terdapat adanya perbedaan pengaruh kebudayaan Islam di wilayah pesisir dengan pedalaman Minahasa yang disebabkan perbedaan latar belakang sejarah, sosial budaya, dan politik masyarakat Islam pesisir dan pedalaman Minahasa.
Las fuentes de información sobre el empleo público en España: revisión, diagnóstico y propuestas de cambio
Authors: Luxán Meléndez José María de
Published: May 2020

Para describir el tamaño del empleo público y el volumen del gasto de personal de las administraciones públicas es usual utilizar como referencia una pluralidad de fuentes estadísticas basadas en registros administrativos, y también emplear los datos de Contabilidad Nacional y las estadísticas del mercado de trabajo. Esta diversidad de fuentes y de metodologías conduce necesariamente a una gran disparidad de resultados. En este trabajo en el ámbito del empleo y del gasto de personal se revisa el Inventario de Operaciones Estadísticas sobre las Administraciones Públicas. Y se analiza que la imagen que se construye sobre las retribuciones o sobre el tamaño y características del empleo público y de sus remuneraciones varía en función de la estadística a la que se acuda.

Se presentan nueve figuras sobre el número de empleados, el empleo femenino, el peso del empleo de las Comunidades Autónomas, la temporalidad en el empleo público, y el gasto de personal. Y por último se plantean un conjunto de propuestas para mejorar la transparencia y la eficiencia del sistema de información del empleo y del gasto de personal en el Sector Público.
Transferencia Condicionada de Ingresos en Argentina: una mirada hacia los orígenes de la Asignación Universal por Hijo para la Protección Social (AUHPS)
Authors: Vargas Melisa Cristina
Published: May 2020

El objeto del presente trabajo es analizar una política particular de transferencia condicionada de ingresos: la Asignación Universal por Hijo para la Protección Social (AUHPS), implementada en Argentina en el año 2009 por la entonces presidenta Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, a través del Decreto de Necesidad y Urgencia N° 1602/09, como un subsistema no contributivo dentro del Régimen de Asignaciones Familiares instituido por la Ley N° 24.714 y bajo jurisdicción de la Administración Nacional de la Seguridad Social (ANSES).

El estudio, metodológicamente basado en el análisis documental, se estructura en torno a una serie de ejes que son imprescindibles examinar de la AUHPS, entre ellos: los antecedentes regionales, el contexto previo a su surgimiento, los aspectos jurídicos normativos que la respaldan, los sujetos de derecho, las consideraciones y debates del feminismo y la mirada peyorativa de los sectores conservadores más reaccionarios que se manifiestan en contra de este tipo de política social que tiende a equiparar en derechos a los hijos e hijas de los trabajadores formales tanto con los de los trabajadores informales como con los de aquellos que se encuentran circunstancialmente desempleados.
Eficacia de las medidas políticas e índices internacionales de criminalidad: el caso de la República de Ecuador
Authors: Vilchez Tornero Jose Luis , Buñay Andrade Román Mauricio
Published: May 2020

En la actualidad, se carece de índices científicos y fidedignos que muestren la eficiencia de los actuales gobiernos. Estos índices son los que deberían guiar nuestras actitudes y conductas de participación política, en lugar de las referencias vagas y los procesos cognitivos incompletos que lo hacen actualmente. El presente trabajo significa la puesta en marcha de una iniciativa más global de análisis científico de la política. Se ha llevado a cabo un análisis de índices de criminalidad a lo largo del tiempo y precisando la instauración de medidas políticas que ayudan a explicar las variaciones de dichos índices. El diseño de estudio es cuasi-experimental (con comparación de los susodichos índices a lo largo de los años) y correlacional (de dichos índices con índices de riqueza, desigualdad o criminalidad internacional, entre otros). En el caso de la República del Ecuador y para los índices de criminalidad estudiados, se puede afirmar que las medidas políticas del gobierno durante el periodo 2010-2016 fueron efectivas.
