Authors: Awwal Owolabi Ayowole , Israel Omoniyi Kehinde , Yashim Zakka
Published: May 2020

Global waste generation has been a challenging issue that vastly affects humans and the environment. The conversion of a vast amount of agricultural and polymeric waste to briquette may bridge the energy deficit and environmental pollution issues in developing economies. On the other hand, the utilization of biomass waste or residue as an energy source could help alleviate dependence on imported energy and its use continues to be a topical issue in both developing and developed countries. Over the years, biomass has been an important source of generating energy due to its relative availability and the ability to meet both heat and electricity demands by contributing towards international commitments so as to minimize environmental degradation and maximize environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The benefits of compacted biomass compared to all other types of biofuel include its low transportation and storage costs, uniform product quality such as constant humidity content, and high mass fluency. Moreover, fuel wood and biomass residues have low combustion efficiency, posing environmental and health hazards. This research studies the performance of briquettes produced from maize cob, sugarcane bagasse, and polythene waste composites. The briquettes were agglomerated using cassava starch binder (CSB) and plantain peel binder (PPB) at binder concentrations of 4%, 12%, and 20%. Each briquette was characterized in terms of proximate analysis, calorific value, ultimate analysis and micro-structure by scanning electron microscopy. The briquettes had a moisture content of 5.39-12.10%, volatile matter of 10.15- 23.08%, ash content of 10.29-24.63%, fixed carbon content of 55.84-77.10%, calorific value of 9.04-28.14 MJ/kg, carbon content of 77%-8405%, nitrogen content of 0.875-1.05%, and sulphur content of 0.4-0.7%. The results obtained from this study revealed that briquette produced using CSB at binder concentration of 4% had the best properties required for biomass fuel briquette compared to briquette produced using PPB and suggested its use for the production of environmentally friendly solid fuel.

Authors: Bazdar Elham , Bozorg Bonnie , Ayoobi Fatemeh , Owliae Hamid , Bidaki Reza
Published: May 2020

Background: Child abuse is defined as any act or omission which causes physical or psychological harassment and lasting effects on children. Injuries resulting from child abuse are widespread, and this trauma can lead to psychological problems in adulthood. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between a history of child abuse and suicide attempts. Methods: In this case-control and retrospective study, patients admitted in 2016 to the toxicity emergency center in Yazd city, Iran, with symptoms of attempted suicide and patients of other conditions were recruited. Participants in the control and case groups were matched for age, gender, marital status, and place of residence. Each patient was given a questionnaire to collect information on demographics, history of suicide attempt or suicide in other members of the family, and history of child abuse (self-report scale) which investigated five aspects of childhood abuse (sexual, physical, neglect, lack of nutrition, and emotional neglect). Results: The chi-square test and t test were used in the analysis. Mean severity rates of physical, sexual, neglect, nutrition, and emotional child abuse were 8.49, 6.42, 10.4, 6.43, and 9.62, respectively, for the case group and 7.89, 5.52, 7.88, 5.92, and 8.52, respectively, for the control group. Conclusion: Statistical analysis revealed that except for nutritional abuse cases, the incidence rates of all other aspects of child abuse were significantly higher among cases than in the control group. The results of this study showed that a history of child abuse, especially sexual and emotional types, are correlated with the incidence of attempted suicide.

Authors: Khaznadar Amanj Abubakr Jalal , Wahid Salh Rebin
Published: May 2020

Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI ) are common types of acute coronary syndrome which are associated with the risk factors of age, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes. Objective: The present study aimed to examine the effects of age on the risk factors and clinical symptoms of acute coronary syndrome. Methods: A cross-section prospective study was conducted on 125 patients with acute coronary syndrome chosen by non-probability convenience sampling method in the coronary care unit in Sulaimani, the Kurdistan region of Iraq. Acute coronary syndrome types were diagnosed through clinical presentations, electrocardiography (ECG), and troponin test. Data was collected using a researcherbased checklist through face-to-face interviews. Results: The results indicated that males were the dominant group. The age group 45-65 had the highest prevalence rate of acute coronary syndrome. The most frequent risk factors for acute coronary syndrome were hypertension (54.4%), dyslipidemia (52%), smoking (42.4%), and diabetes mellitus (38.4%). Typical chest pain was found to be the most frequent clinical presentation (88%). There was a significant difference between the age groups in terms of the effect of age on typical and atypical symptoms; however, neither age nor typical/atypical symptoms had a significant effect on type of acute coronary syndrome. Similarly, family history, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, and dyslipidemia had no effect on type of acute coronary syndrome. Conclusion: Age is a predictive factor for acute coronary syndrome, but family history, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, and dyslipidemia cannot predict acute coronary syndrome.
Educational Attainment and Tobacco Harm Knowledge Among American Adults: Diminished Returns of African Americans and Hispanics
Authors: Assari Shervin , Bazargan Mohsen
Published: May 2020

Background and aims: Minorities’ Diminished Returns (MDRs) refer to the smaller effects of educational attainment for ethnic minorities compared to the majority group. As a result of MDRs, research has documented more than expected tobacco use among Hispanics and African Americans (AAs) with high educational attainment. In theory, some of this increased risk may be due to lower tobacco harm knowledge. Accordingly, the present study compared ethnic groups for the association between educational attainment and tobacco harm knowledge among American adults in order to better understand a potential mechanism behind MDRs of educational attainment on tobacco use of Hispanics and AAs. Methods: The current cross-sectional study used baseline data of 27,405 adults, which were obtained from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (2013) study a nationally representative survey in the United States. The independent and dependent variables were educational attainment and tobacco harm knowledge, respectively. In addition, age, gender, employment, and poverty status were the covariates and ethnicity was the moderator. Finally, linear regression was used to analyze the data. Results: Educational attainment was inversely associated with tobacco harm knowledge in the pooled sample (b=0.11, 95% CI=0.09 - 0.13). Ethnicity showed a statistically significant interaction with educational attainment (b=-0.05, 95% CI=-0.10 - 0.00 for AAs and b=-0.14, 95% CI=-0.19 - -0.09 for Hispanics versus non-Hispanics), suggesting that the effect of educational attainment on tobacco harm knowledge was smaller for Hispanics and AAs compared to non-Hispanics and Whites. Conclusion: In general, although high educational attainment increases tobacco harm knowledge, highly educated Hispanics and AAs still report a disproportionately low level of tobacco harm knowledge. Eventually, the MDRs of educational attainment on tobacco harm knowledge may explain why highly educated Hispanics remain at high risk of tobacco use.
Investigation of the Predictors of Self-rated Health of Economically Disadvantaged African American Men and Women: Evidence for Sponge Hypothesis
Authors: Cobb Sharon , Assari Shervin
Published: May 2020

Background and aims: According to the sponge hypothesis, compared to men’s self-rated health (SRH), women’s SRH is more likely to reflect conditions other than chronic medical conditions (CMCs) such as psychiatric disorders (PDs). As a result, poor SRH is a weaker predictive factor for mortality risk for women than men. Most of this literature, however, is done in samples that are predominantly middleclass White. To test the sponge hypothesis among economically disadvantaged African Americans (AAs), this study compared low-income AA men and women for the effects of the number of PDs and CMCs on SRH. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited a non-random sample (n=150) of economically disadvantaged AA adults with PD(s). Structured face-to-face interviews were used to collect data. SRH was measured using a single-item measure. PDs and CMCs were also self-reported. We applied linear regression models to test the interactions between SRH and the number of PDs and CMC as well as gender. Results: The number of PDs and CMCs were associated with SRH in the pooled sample of low-income AA adults with PD(s). However, we found a significant interaction between the number of PDs and gender. This interaction suggested a stronger association between PDs and SRH for AA women than AA men. Gender did not alter the association between the number of CMCs and SRH. Conclusion: The number of PDs is a determinant of SRH for low-income AA women but not AA men, supporting the sponge hypothesis.
The bedrock geology under the Inland Ice: the next major challenge for Greenland mapping
Authors: Dawes Peter R.
Published: May 2020

Geological maps are of vital importance for documenting and advancing geological knowledge and they are a prerequisite for any meaningful evaluation of economic resources. In Greenland, mapping is taking place on the mainland – that for two centuries has been the traditional exploration target – and offshore, where only in the last decades has hydrocarbon exploration moved to the continental shelves. Greenland with its 2 166 000 km2 is the largest island in the world. However, the land is overwhelmed by ice. A central ice sheet – the Inland Ice – blankets some 81% of the country reducing rock outcrop to a coastal fringe 0 to 300 km wide (Fig. 1). The continental shelves comprise a little more than twice the area of this fringe, c. 830 000 km2. This preamble serves to emphasise that Greenland’s three physiographic units – exposed fringe, offshore and Inland Ice – are of very different size and that mapping has focused on the smallest acreage. Piecing together the composition of the largest, and hitherto unexplored, unit constitutes the next chapter of Greenland mapping.

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test in heart failure: A Sine qua non
Authors: Sakellaropoulos Stefanos , Lekaditi Dimitra , Svab Stefano
Published: May 2020

A robust literature, over the last years, supports the indication of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Understanding exercise physiology is a crucial component of the critical evaluation of exercise intolerance. Shortness of breath and exercise limitation is often treated with an improper focus, partly because the pathophysiology is not well understood in the frame of the diagnostic spectrum of each subspecialty. A vital field and research area have been cardiopulmonary exercise test in heart failure with preserved/reduced ejection fraction, evaluation of heart failure patients as candidates for LVAD-Implantation, as well as for LVAD-Explantation and ultimately for heart transplantation. All the CPET variables provide synergistic prognostic discrimination. However, Peak VO2 serves as the most critical parameter for risk stratification and prediction of survival rate.

RENOVATED DESIGN OF SOLAR PUSH-PULL TRICYCLE FOR HANDICAPPED PEOPLE
Authors: Nguyen Trung Xuan , Duong Lap Van
Published: May 2020

In order to improve the quality of life for handicapped people, push-pull tricycle is designed to transform into solar tricycle. It has a 24 V – 250 W electric motor on the front wheel installed which is powered by two 12 V – 30 Ah storage batteries and a bracket with four 12 V – 55 W solar panels. The bracket with solar panels also works as a hood to cover the driver. The transmission has been modified from hard to sliding link so that when the tricycle runs by electrical power, the push-pull motion of the steering wheel does not move according to the front wheel. The solar tricycle operates in one of three modes: only by the electric engine when traveling on flat roads, by combining electricity and hands in case of uphill or weak power, using the push–pull function when running out of power or moving short distances. Tests and calculations show that the tricycle can cover a distance of 24.7 km by only relying on the batteries or 48 km by mixing batteries with solar panels on asunny day. Single unit production cost is 10 million VND and mass production is about 7 million VND. Compared to other tricycles for people with disabilities, this model has the advantages in both operation and price.
EVALUATING THE POSSIBLE USE OF PHYTOPLANKTON AND ZOOBENTHOS FOR WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT: A CASE STUDY AT BUNG BINH THIEN RESERVOIR, AN GIANG PROVINCE, VIET NAM
Authors: Nguyen Giao Thanh
Published: May 2020

The study aimed to evaluate water quality at Bung Binh Thien Reservoir, in An Giang Province, Viet Nam using Shannon-Wiener species diversity index (H’) and associated average score per taxon (ASPT) calculated from composition of phytoplankton and zoobenthos. The water quality index (WQI) was used as the reference forthe quality of surface water. The samples of surface water quality, phytoplankton, and zoobenthos were simultaneously collected at 11 sites during the dry season. The results showed that WQI (57-88) classified waterquality from good to medium, H’ calculated using phytoplankton species (1.12-2.71) presented water quality from medium to bad where as, H’z calculated (0 to 2.07) and ASPT (2-4.21) calculated from zoobenthos species divided water quality from bad to very bad. The findings revealed that assessing water quality should not totally rely on diversity indices (H’, ASPT), but compositions of phytoplankton and zooplankton should also be taken into consideration.

O ciclismo é uma prática evidenciada na capital do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, no final do século XIX. Contudo, no principio, a prática era um passatempo que, ao longo dos anos, passou por um processo de esportivização, principalmente com a organização clubística do ciclismo, encetada em 1895, com a fundação da União Velocipédica de Amadores e no ano seguinte, em 1896, com a Radfahrer Verein Blitz. Em seguida, são promovidas disputas entre estes clubes pelas ruas da cidade de Porto Alegre. Esta pesquisa histórica tem como objetivo investigar como o processo de esportivização do ciclismo se desenvolveu na cidade de Porto Alegre na transição do século XIX para o século XX. O corpus documental privilegia jornais porto-alegrenses, os quais, após análise documental demonstraram que a fundação de clubes esportivos foi determinante para o aprimoramento, propagação e esportivização do ciclismo.

Análise Discursiva do Programa Academia da Cidade de Belo Horizonte/MG
Authors: Maciel Marcos Gonçalves , Soares Leonardo Antônio
Published: May 2020

A atividade física praticada no tempo livre ou como lazer, tradicionalmente é utilizada como meio profilático. Assim sendo, este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o conteúdo do programa Academia da Cidade em Belo Horizonte/MG. Adotamos como base teórica a Análise Crítica do Discurso proposta por Fairclough, pelo fato de ser considerada uma teoria potencial para o entendimento das relações de poder e das ideologias frequentemente presentes no discurso. O texto analisado apresenta um discurso de que a prefeitura cumpre a sua responsabilidade social ao oferecer a prática de atividade física orientada e gratuita à população. A prática social discutida nesse discurso é o da atividade física como fator de promoção da saúde e qualidade de vida, mas com o intuito de se prevenir as doenças crônicas não transmissíveis, o que denota uma perspectiva funcionalista para essas atividades e, não como meio de lazer crítico e criativo.

Популярность идей здорового питания обуславливает интерес разработчиков и производителей к созданию новых продуктов, отвечающих принципам здорового сбалансированного питания. Макаронные изделия пользуются стабильно большим спросом среди населения многих стран, поэтому являются перспективным объектом для обогащения и использования нетрадиционного для макаронного производства сырья. Целью исследования является разработка рецептур макаронных изделий из нетрадиционных компонентов для диетического профилактического и диетического лечебного питания при избыточном весе с целью расширения ассортимента обогащенных продуктов с потенциально низким гликемическим индексом. Работа проведена в НИИ пищеконцентратной промышленности и специальной пищевой технологии – филиале ФГБУН «ФИЦ питания, биотехнологии и безопасности пищи» (Московская область). В исследовании использовали муку полбяную цельнозерновую, муку гречневую, порошки брокколи, сельдерея, соевую клетчатку. Изготовлены опытные образцы макаронных изделий на лабораторном макаронном прессе Sandore (модель Sandorina) (Италия). Применили средний тип замеса теста с влажностью 31%. По органолептическим и физико-химическим показателям, варочным свойствам полученные макаронные изделия отвечают требованиям нормативной документации. Использование нетрадиционного сырья не оказало отрицательного влияния на показатели качества готовых изделий и состояние после варки. Использование в рецептуре нетрадиционного сырья не требует изменений технологического процесса или замены традиционного оборудования, а также позволяет обогатить макаронную продукцию белком, клетчаткой, витаминами, минеральными веществами. Производство макаронных изделий из муки полбы, овощных порошков расширяет ассортимент продуктов диетического лечебного и диетического профилактического питания.

Alcance de ‘teoría de la educación’ en la carrera de pedagogía
Authors: Touriñán López José Manuel
Published: May 2020

El foco de este artículo no es la educación como tarea o actividad.  Tampoco es el objetivo de este artículo responder a la pregunta cómo educar nuestro modo de conocer y pensar (Cognitive  Education or Knowledge Education or Education of Knowledge). El objetivo de este artículo está integrado en el tópico “la educación como objeto de conocimiento” (educación como disciplina y como conocimiento de la educación: “Education as a discipline”, Education Knowledge or Knowledge of Education). De manera específica, el objetivo de este artículo es entender el lugar de la teoría dentro del conocimiento de la educación, su diversidad como disciplina y como investigación.

Es posible realizar ese objetivo, porque la teoría de la educación es conocimiento de la educación; hay una relación entre teoría y educación por medio del conocimiento de la educación. Cada modo de entender el conocimiento de  la educación, permite entender el significado de la teoría en relación con la ‘educación’. El  objetivo en este artículo es integrar las diversas posiciones que existen en la pluralidad semántica del concepto de “teoría” en relación con  “educación”, como  disciplina y asignatura de plan de estudios y como investigación.
Analizando a los estudiosos de Leonidas Proaño

El ser humano a lo largo de su vida deja huellas de su accionar, sean estas positivas o negativas. En estas etapas de la vida  muchos de ellos han pasado desapercibidos, de la misma manera hay personas que por sus actos han dejado rastros imborrables en beneficio de la sociedad, tal es el caso de Monseñor Leonidas Proaño. En el presente artículo se hace un recorrido de su accionar en su misión de Obispo de Riobamba,  donde a pesar de haber transcurrido 109 años de su natalicio, su pensamiento y obras siguen latentes, no solo en la práctica viva del evangelio, sino en la enseñanza del valor, del respeto a la dignidad del ser humano, con un gran sentido de humildad,  solidaridad e identidad, siendo  parte de nuestra memoria, nuestras vidas y nuestros corazones. Mediante el análisis de textos y entrevistas demostraremos por qué se lo denomina el “Obispo de los pobres”. En el análisis realizado se intenta captar el interés para que interesados en conocer y difundir su pensamiento tengan como herramienta de consulta.
Digital Storytelling as a Tool for Fostering Reflection
Authors: Hamilton Ali , Rubin Donald , Tarrant Michael , Gleason Mikkel
Published: May 2020

Reflection is an essential process for optimizing student learning outcomes in study abroad. Composing digital stories is a promising strategy for achieving high quality reflection. In this project we developed and explicated a rubric for assessing how students used the d igital storytelling format to reflect on their study abroad experiences. We analyzed undergraduates’ digital stories for evidence of both (a) disciplinary thinking in the field of sustainability and (b) intercultural understanding. Qualitative findings sug gest that the digital story format offers students an opportunity to weave together digital artifacts that they often are already collecting. The process of creating digital stories both promotes and displays reflection. We also present an adapted rubric f or assessing targeted learning outcomes manifest in digital stories produce d by learners studying abroad. Applying the rubric revealed variability among students in achieving the aims of a digital story reflectionassignment.
Flexibility Management in Renewable Energy Source Operated Power Systems using Decision Support System
Authors: Wang Dr. Haoxiang
Published: May 2020

In the recent days, energy mix performed by using the Renewable Energy Sources (RES) is gaining wide popularity. The control of predictability and generation takes a progressive loss as RES is penetrating increasingly in the energy mixes due to the non dispatchable nature of the energy produced from these sources. For ensuring and maintaining stable operation, the power system flexibility is increased when higher penetration levels are attained by RES. A Decision Support System (DSS) is used for energy conversion and storage systems which can be managed by an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tool. The H2020 PLAnning and operational tools are used for optimizing energy flows and synergies between energy NETworks (PLANET) along with DSS for controlling the technology wherein power is converted into either heat or gas (P2X) by evaluation, management and dispatch. Further analysis is done in terms of energy evaluation and economic benefits with respect to P2X technology and its flexibility.

О назначении требуемых мер надежности при разработке национальных нормативных документов по проектированию строительных конструкций
Authors: Тур В.В. , Тур А.В. , Дереченник С.С.
Published: May 2020

В соответствии с действующим ТКП EN1990 [5] конструкции следует проектировать таким образом, чтобы в течение проектного срока службы, с соответствующим уровнем надежности и оптимальными экологическими затратами, они: (1) воспринимали все воздействия и влияния, появления
которых следует ожидать в процессе эксплуатации; (2) удовлетворяли требованиям пригодности к нормальной эксплуатации и (3) долговечности. Перечисленные требования являются взаимосвязанными и совместно формулируют целевые значения мер надежности, вносимые в нормы.
Принятая в настоящее время классификация конструкций (классы СС), включенная в актуальный EN1990 [8], не нашла широкого применения при реальном проектировании, основана на неясной качественной дифференциации и описании последствий отказа конструкции или конструктивной
системы. Результаты анализа различных подходов к назначению требуемых мер надежности (анализ рисков с “F-N” кривыми, монетарная оптимизация, принцип предельных затрат на спасение жизни, LQI), приведенные в статье, позволили сделать вывод о том, что целевые уровни надежности следует устанавливать, рассматривая экономическую (стоимостную) оптимизацию совместно с принципом предельной стоимости спасения жизни (LQI-принцип), оба эти подхода учитывают последствия отказа и стоимость мер обеспечения безопасности.

Authors: Шурин А. Б. , Зинкевич И. В. , Мухин А. В.
Published: May 2020

В настоящее время в Республике Беларусь, в зависимости от задания на проектирование, расчёт стальных конструкций допускается выполнять как в соответствии с требованиями СНиП II-23, так и по ТКП ЕN 1993-1. Базовым требованием, относящимся к проектированию конструкций в условиях параллельного действия нескольких нормативных документов одинаковой направленности, но обладающих различными уровнями надежности, является недопущение сочетания их требований при проектировании одного объекта. В статье приводится сопоставление некоторых положений и методов расчета отдельных элементов стальных конструкций по ТКП EN 1993 и СНиП II-23, наиболее часто встречающихся в практике проектирования
