The article presents the results of the experimental studies of the kinetics of electric smelting of the basalt from the Daubaba deposit, the main components of which are 50.5% SiO2, 19.9% Al2O3, 9.3% CaO, 9.6% Fe2O3 with the extraction of the silicon and aluminum into the ferroalloy, calcium into the calcium carbide. The effect of electric smelting time (from 10 to 60 minutes) and the amount of lime (from 0 to 30% from weight of basalt) on the degree of extraction of Si and Al into the alloy and Ca into CaC2 was determined. The studies were carried out by the method of planning the experiments with the usage of roto-standard plans of second order (Box-Hunter plan) with exploring graphic optimization of technological parameters. The electric smelting was carried out in a graphite crucible. The mass of the furnace-charge in each experiment was 400 g. It was found that: extraction of Si, Al into the alloy, and Ca into the calcium carbide becomes noticeable in the first 10 minutes of the process; in the absence of lime, the maximum degree of extraction of the silicon, aluminum in the alloy and the calcium, respectively, contain 80.8%, 72.2% and 69% in 45 minutes; the presence of lime in the furnace-charge allows you to increase the degree of extraction of the calcium in the calcium carbide to 79.8%, however, at this time, the extraction of the silicon and aluminum decreases. To extract 77.1-86.8% of the silicon, 75-82% of the aluminum in the alloy and 75-79% of the calcium in the calcium carbide, the duration of the electric smelting should be 46-50 minutes and the amount of lime to 6.1% from weight of basalt.
Bodies That Cannot Listen
Authors: Sedano Livia Jiménez
Published: June 2019

This is a brief reflection on the consequences of the commodification of dance cultures from the former colonised world and the ways they are consumed in Europe. Inspired from ten years of fieldwork, the ethnic structuring of postcolonial dance floors in European cities proves an empirical basis to start this line of thought. Instead of promoting respect and interest in the dance forms and the cultural contexts in which these dance forms developed, aficionados tend to consider that these are less evolved, beautiful and interesting than the appropriations they develop in their home countries. As a result,
commodification leads to reinforcing previous stereotypes and emic hierarchies of value. The kinetic metaphor of the bodies that scream but cannot listen structures the text and its arguments.

Critical concentration of the exotic nuclei in the 232Th chain for the alpha analysts
Authors: Nguyen Ngoc Duy , Vo Thi To Vy , Nguyen Kim Uyen
Published: June 2019

The critical concentration plays an important role in the consideration of the analysts, such as gamma or alpha analyzers, for the isotopic analysis. Since the 232Th isotope and its a-decay daughters are abundant in the environments of soils, rocks and water, it is necessary to investigate the content of these isotopes to reduce the risks of health. In this work, the critical concentrations of the mentioned radioactive nuclei were estimated based on their radioactivities for the alpha analysts. The a-decay half-lives of the nuclei in the decay chain of the 232Th isotope were re-examined for the radioactivities. The semi-empirical formulae proposed by Viola-Seaberg, Royer and Poenaru were applied to the estimation. The predicted half-lives were normalized by their average values and compared to the data (NuDat) of the National Nuclear Data Center, Brookhaven National Laboratory. The results show that there exist a large uncertainty, 15% - 95% dispersed from the average values (in decimal logarithmic scale), of the half-lives evaluated by each models. Most of average half-lives are close to the NuDat data except the multi-decay-mode isotopes. The relationships between the estimated half-lives and the NuDat data are deduced as linear functions. The decay-constant deviations due to the half-life uncertainty are in the range of 1% - 120% from the average values. The large radioactivity uncertainty due to the half-lives estimated by the three models should be paid an attention for considering the environmental samples for the analysis of the natural exotic isotopes using alpha spectrometers. By assuming an efficiency of 100%, the critical concentration for the alpha analyst of the 232Th nucleus is found to be in the range 1.5 – 2.5 microgram/(l or kg).

Authors: Gupta Vijayta , Bhatti Anuj
Published: June 2019

Introduction: Asthenopia is a common complaint in school going children. The magnitude of the problem in our region is not known.

Methodology: Children (5-18 years) presenting in pediatric and ophthalmology outpatient department with symptoms (defined a proiri) were included in study. Exclusion criteria included BCVA of less than 6/9 in either eye, strabismus, ocular or systemic diseases affecting binocular vision, and using any medication that can impact accommodation or convergence. Previous day 24 hour recall method was used to assess the time spent on various activities. Subsequently, detailed refractive assessment was done.

Results: A total of 24200 children with age group 5-18 years visited outpatient department. Out of them 520 (2.1%) children had symptoms of asthenopia. The proportion of males (66.6%) was higher than female (33.4%). The proportion of children with asthenopia increased from 21% in 5-9 year group to 45% in 13-18 year group. Tearing and eye pain were the commonest presenting complaints The presence of four or more symptoms was not observed in 5-9 age group. Asthenopic children spend a mean of 4.2 hours/day on screen.

Conclusion: Asthenopia is common eye complaint in school children. It can interfare in near work, so warrants prompt treatment.

Authors: Gupta Saibya , Gupta Priya
Published: June 2019

The latest addition to the CyberKnife product family, which was released in September 2009. This review updates the previous technical reviews of the original system version published in the late 1990s. There is a clear dose response for localized prostate cancer radiotherapy and there probablyis a radiobiological rationale for hypo-fractionation. Combining the two should maximize tumor control and increase the therapeutic ratio. Technical developments over the last decade have impacted virtually every aspect of the CyberKnife System. These developments have increased the geometric accuracy of the system and have enhanced the dosimetric accuracy and quality of treatment, with advanced inverse treatment planning algorithms, rapid Monte Carlo dose calculation, and post-processing tools that allow trade-offs between treatment efficiency and dosimetric quality to be explored. The CyberKnife can produce superior DVHs for sparing of rectum and bladder and excellent DVHs for target coverage compared with IMRT, and possesses dose heterogeneities to the same degree as IMRT plans.

Published: June 2019

Carvedilol Phosphate Osmotic Tablets were prepared using a Direct Compression approach. A mixture of osmogens i.e. NaCl and Mannitol was used to achieve a desired osmotic pressure in the tablets which were then coated with Cellulose Acetate polymer with PEG as a plasticizer and Povidone K30 as a pore former. Early screening batches showed drastic effect of osmogens and pore former, as well as % weight gain on drug release of the tablets. The prepared tablets were evaluated for Weight variation, Thickness, Hardness, Dissolution, and the final optimized formulation was exposed to Accelerated Stability Study. A full factorial statistical optimization was carried out on the best optimized formulation to establish the design space for selected factors i.e., NaCl and Povidone K30 against Response Dissolution. A significant effect of both factors was found on Dissolution rate, which justifies the use and rationale of the excipients

BLACKSMITH LOCKS OF DAGESTAN (FORGOTTEN PAGES OF DARGIN ETHNOCULTURE)
Authors: Magomedov A Dzh , Yusupov Kh A
Published: June 2019

Article is devoted to it to the phenomenon of the Dagestan ethnographic culture «forgotten» by scientists as superimposed forge locks. They aren't also in the state museums of the republic. Dagestanis had still such locks in which the locking mechanism widely known in the Middle Ages was used, as in Russia until recently, and in the east and the West. At the same time, the type of the lock (delivery note), a form of a design, its variation, an original forge pattern, names testify to the original ethnocultural phenomenon which sources aren't up to the end clear. Superimposed forge locks for the first time were revealed by us at Dargins of Dakhadayevsky district. Still in due time the famous caucasiologist E. M. Shilling paid attention that the ethnoculture of Dargins contains the interesting materials of archaic type which didn't remain at other mountain people of Dagestan. Field material demonstrates that such locks were generally manufactured by masters of villages Amuzgi and Harbuk. The description of a design of locks, in particular their spring mechanism is given. Some data on names of locks are provided in article and the attempt to explain their origin becomes. Material shows that all versions of names of forge locks of a local origin. In the Dargwa language the word "meg" means "iron", "metal". The same word, as a rule, designates also the lock. Forge superimposed locks of Dargins - the unique phenomenon of cultural history of Dagestan bearing on itself a seal of early traditions of metal working. It is obvious that it is necessary to continue searches of new materials and studying of this phenomenon of culture.

CATTLE BREEDING OF THE KATAI BASHKIRS IN THE INZER BASIN IN THE 14th - EARLY 21st CENTURIES
Authors: Vorobyova S L , Khasanova Z F
Published: June 2019

Basing on ethnographic, archival and archaeological data, the authors of the article analyze the features of the development of cattle breeding among the Katai Bashkirs from ancient times up to our days. Due to traditions and geographical and climatic factors, cattle breeding has been the main occupation of the Katai Bashkirs until today. The Katai Bashkirs live in the mountain-forest zone of the Southern Urals in the territory of the Inzer basin in the Beloretsky District of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The peculiarities of the natural and geographical zone, primarily its inaccessibility and the lack of large open spaces, have created conditions for preservation of ethnic traditions, for separate development of material and spiritual culture of the ethnoterritorial group of the Bashkirs. The study of the Katai Bashkirs of the Inzer basin allows tracing changes in the way of life of the Bashkirs from semi-nomadic one to the formation of farms and the development of horse breeding. The origin of the Katai (kytai, ktai) tribal group is associated with the Mongolian tribes of the Kara-Khitais, or Khitans, that came to the territory in question at the end of the 14th century. In the 15th - 16th centuries the territory of the Inzer basin was part of the Historical Bashkortostan. The field materials of one of the authors of the article, as well as written and archaeological data, speak of the nomadic way of life of the Bashkirs during the Middle Ages. After resettlement to the territory of the Inzer basin, the Katai Bashkirs adapted to local natural conditions and began to lead a semi-nomadic way of life. In the 18th century there was a sharp change in economic activity. At the end of the 19th century, the cattle number reduced. This was due to the fact that Russians captured Bashkir lands and constructed mining plants in the territory of the Inzer basin, and it led to reduction of pasture and hayfields. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Katai Bashkirs were still engaged in semi-nomadic cattle breeding. Mass exodus ceased in 1921-1922. According to informants, the last nomadic migration was in 1932. At the end of the 20th century, farms for breeding horses appeared in this territory.
KHWAREZMIAN CONQUEST OF THE SOUTH CAUCASUS AND THE BATTLE OF GARNI IN 1225
Authors: Timokhin D M
Published: June 2019

The article deals with one of the most striking moments of the Khwarezmian expansion into the South Caucasus, namely the battle of Garni in 1225. It was this military clash that largely predetermined the course of the further military and political activity of the Khorezmshah Jalal ad-Din Mankburni: till his death in 1231, his attention was focused on this region, which had rightfully become the heart of his power. For its part, it was the Khwarezmian expansion that undermined the military and political might of the Georgian Empire, so that it could no longer properly withstand the Mongolian threat in the 1230s. The author of the article considers the battle and focuses on the causes and preconditions of this military conflict and its consequences. The article also presents a brief analysis of the military and political situation in the South Caucasus on the threshold of Khwarezmian threat. The events are reconstructed basing on the available sources in the Arabic-Persian, Georgian and Armenian languages. The author of the article highlights the key matters, which the authors of the three sources draw attention to, and emphasizes the most important authors’ assessments and conclusions cited in the historical sources. Thus, the author of the article considers the battle of Garni in 1225 both as a historical event and as a certain narrative created by medieval historians belonging to different religious, ethnic and social communities. The analysis of the mentioned narrative and the laws of its formation is an important component of this study.
FUNERAL AND MEMORIAL RITES OF DAGESTAN PEOPLE IN MODERN URBAN CONDITIONS
Authors: Musaeva М К
Published: June 2019

Among the rites (rituals) of the system of ceremonial actions, magical ideas, beliefs related to such cycles of human life as birth, marriage, and death, united by a single concept - the rituals of the life cycle, the funeral and memorial rites have always been the most religiously regulated ones and they are characterized by a certain stability and conservatism both in rural areas and in towns of Dagestan. In the funeral and memorial rites, we can conditionally distinguish three cycles. The first cycle includes the rituals observed within the period after a person’s death before the body of the deceased is carried out of the house; the rituals of the second cycle are performed when the body of the deceased is carried out of the house, on the way to the cemetery, during the burial and on the way back after the burial. The third cycle includes the rituals observed after the burial until the anniversary of the person’s death. This is also a whole system of views based on people’s beliefs and religious precepts. New religious trends (the ideas of pure Islam) and globalization and urbanization processes have not affected the foundations of the funeral and memorial rites. The changes have affected the material component: costs for funeral events and commemoration of the deceased (fixing of the headstone) have increased. Almost up to the 1980s, the body of the deceased city dweller was buried in the village that the deceased man or woman was from. In recent decades, new cemeteries have appeared in towns. In general, Islam has managed to press greatly the ancient pagan rituals that developed over many centuries, but this fact does not exclude the preservation of some ancient ideas and elements of pre-Islamic rituals in the funeral rites. Besides, the common Muslim character of the funeral rites could not completely suppress the ethnically specific features: due to some elements (as a rule, in the memorial part), every Dagestan nationality is recognized even in urban conditions.
TRANSFORMATION OF ECONOMIC SPECIALIZATION OF DAGESTAN PEOPLES: GENDER ASPECT
Authors: Gimbatova M B , Musaeva M K
Published: June 2019

Economic specialization of the peoples of Dagestan was conditioned by natural environment and it influenced the process of social differentiation of labor, thus, most peoples consider all kinds of work connected with agriculture and cattle breeding to be men’s occupations, and household chores and most domestic crafts (spinning, production of carpets, palaces, woolen cloth, cotton and silk fabrics, linen, felting, bagging, making of woolen socks, stockings and outdoor woolen footwear) to be women’s occupations. Men’s crafts were sheepskin processing and metalwork. In the mountainous area, there was no strict gender differentiation of labor, as women’s labor was used quite widely, and independence of women was conditioned by men’s leaving for seasonal work. The traditional regulation of the gender differentiation of labor, adopted in the pre-revolutionary Dagestan society, has gradually lost its positions. During the Soviet period, the gender stratification of labor was leveled: women’s labor was not limited to the household, but was widely used in enterprises. Accelerated transformation of economic specialization took place in the post-Soviet period. The boundaries between what men can do and what is not permissible for them have actually erased, and this process began in the 1990s - the time of total men’s unemployment. Men began to explore new spheres and successfully realized their potential in the areas that had been considered exclusively women’s occupations. Changes in economic specialization could not but affect the intra-family relations of the Dagestan people. In a traditional society, the head of the family was always the father as the breadwinner and provider of the family, but in the present circumstances the head of the family is the one whose share in the family budget is greater. Recently, there have been cardinal changes in the employment of the population and in the minds of the Dagestan peoples, and the changes have significantly affected the gender differentiation of labor and gender stratification.

Psychosocial determinants of communication satisfaction in racially concordant and discordant patient-physician interactions
Authors: Assari Shervin
Published: June 2019

Introduction: Although both socioeconomic and race- related factors both influence quality of medical encounters, it is not known how these effects differ between racially concordant and discordant medical visits. Current study investigated psychosocial determinants of physician visit satisfaction of Black adults based on racial concordance of the medical encounter. Materials and Methods: Data came from the Detroit Area Study (DAS), a community survey of adults in Michigan, United States. The current analysis included 336 Black individuals who had visited a White (n = 191) or a Black (n=145) physician in the last year. Outcome was satisfaction with the quality of communication with the doctor. Demographics (age and gender), socioeconomic staus (education and income), psychosocial factors (control beliefs and social support), race related factors (having a close White friend, negative attitudes about Blacks, discrimination), and health status (chronic disease count, self-rated health, and distress) of the patient as well as race of the doctor were measured. We used multi-group structural equation modeling (SEM) for data analysis, where the two groups were racially concordant (those who met a Black physician) and racially discordant (those who met a White physician) visits.   Results: Satisfaction with physician visit was lower in racially discordant than racially concordant encounters. In racially concordant visits, high education was associated with higher satisfaction, however, racial discrimination was associated with lower satisfaction. In racially discordant visits (i.e. with a White doctor), having a White friend as well as high sense of control were associated with a higher satisfaction, while negative attitudes about Blacks was associated with lower level of satisfaction. Conclusions: Racially concordant and discordant visits have different satisfaction levels. Racially concordant and discordant visits also have different predictors of communication satisfaction among Black patients. Socioeconomic status as well as racial attitudes and experiences impact quality of communication of the Black patients with their doctors, however, these effects depend on the race of the doctor.

近年来，随着城市的不断扩张与发展，水资源越来越紧缺，人们对再生水的重视程度不断提高。废水回用是一个势在必行的节能措施。在选择再生水的水源时需要考虑技术和经济多方面因素。此文针对“杭州径山某度假世界”项目，对常用的两种再生水回用水源“中水”和“雨水”进行了比较分析。为相关类似工程提供参考。主要内容与结论如下：当采用雨水回用系统时，为满足水景补水，需将雨水储水池设为1000m3，初期投资为200-300万，且存在水源不稳定、增加酒店运营成本、可靠性低、水池占地对建筑影响大等诸多的限制性，同时具有经济效益较低的不利因素；采用中水回用系统，前期投资为130万，日常维护费为1.27元/m3，相比较雨水收集系统，中水处理站占地小，投资成本低，且由于中水系统可收利用的水量大，扣除中水处理费用后，每年可节约资金约为31.6万元，投资回收期为5年。从技术角度来讲，中水作为补充水源，除了解决了水景的备用水源问题，同时还可用于车库冲洗、商业冲厕及绿化灌溉等多种用途，具有节能环保、稳定性好的优点；从经济上来看，中水初期投资低于雨水收集系统，短期可收回初投资成本，且具有长期收益。综上所述，中水是本项目的非常重要用水源，建议选用中水回用系统。随着水资源越来越紧张，自来水的价格会越来越高，该项目选用中水回用系统的优势也会越来越明显。

Introduction: The Integrated Care Pathway (ICP) represents a multidisciplinary outline of anticipated care, placed in an appropriate timeframe, to support patients with specific conditions or symptoms. The aim of this paper is to define the ICP for patients with melanoma referring to the “Istituto Dermopatico dell’Immacolata-IRCCS di Roma e Villa Paola” (“Center”). Methods and results: A multidisciplinary group (oncologists, dermatologists, surgeons, pathologists etc.) was defined as well as a facilitator to act as a link between all experts. The first step of ICP development was a review of current practice for patients with melanoma referring to the Center. This first step had the scope to define the multidisciplinary process map (a “picture” of the care plan) for patients with melanoma. The process map defined: i) the activities performed during delivery of care to the patients, ii) the responsibilities for these activities and iii) potential problem areas or opportunities for improvements. The process map formed the basis of the final ICP document. Conclusion: The adoption of melanoma ICP will allow the multidisciplinary group to ensure that clinical guidelines and available evidence are incorporated into everyday practice.

Published: June 2019

Aims and objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacious treatment in intensive care unit patients: high frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO¸VEST) versus chest physiotherapy (CPT).Background: Patients with lung disease often have respiratory infections and hospitalization caused by sputum retention. Intensive care unit patients usually have intubated and ventilator and this make it difficult to clean the airway.

Methods: A comparison study with random sampling was carried out 559 patients in the intensive care unit were recruited in the study. Patients either received HFCWO therapy using the vest system (n=208) or received CPT (n=351). The primary outcomes were length of stay in intensive care unit and the duration of mechanical ventilation, comfortable with therapy and lung condition were compared between the two groups.

Result: The patients treated by the high frequency chest wall oscillation, their duration of mechanical ventilation (p=0.014), chest X-ray (p<0.0001) and their comfortability (p<0.0001) were significantly better than the chest physiotherapy patients. The sputum volume did not differ significantly between the two groups (p=0.085).

Conclusion: HFCWO was associated with better comfort, produced an improvement in lung condition, and reduced the number of days to use the ventilator on patients who are in intensive care units, compared to manual percussion of CPT. HFCWO can be performed in acutely ill patients who may be unable to use handheld devices effectively. Those patients need airway clearance in intensive care units; this treatment could be included among the options in chest physiotherapy.
Iterative Numerical Scheme for Non-Isothermal Two-Phase Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media
Authors: El-Amin Mohamed F.
Published: June 2019

In the current paper, an iterative algorithm is developed to simulate the problem of two-phase flow with heat transfer in porous media. The convective body force caused by heat transfer is described by Boussinesq approximation throughout with the governing equations, namely, pressure, saturation, and energy. The two coupled equations of pressure and saturation are solved using the implicit pressure-explicit saturation (IMPES) scheme, while the energy equation is treated implicitly, and the scheme is called iterative implicit pressure, explicit saturation, implicit temperature (I-IMPES-IMT). In order to calculate the pressure implicitly, the equations of pressure and saturation are coupled by linearizing the capillary pressure which is a function of saturation. After that, the equation of saturation is solved explicitly. Then, the velocity is computed which is used in the energy equation to calculate the temperature implicitly. The cell-centered finite difference (CCFD) method is utilized for spatial discretization. Furthermore, a relaxation factor along is used with the Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy (CFL) condition. Finally, in order to illustrate the efficiency of the developed algorithm, error estimates for saturation and temperature for different values of time steps and number of iterations are presented. Moreover, numerical examples of different physical scenarios of heterogamous media are presented.

Published: June 2019

In this study, GIS-based Multi-Criteria Decision Approach (MCDA) is used to identify suitable locations to use groundwater for irrigation purposes in Salah-Al-Din Governorate, 180 km to the North of Baghdad, capital of Iraq republic. Various criteria are adopted including Electrical Conductivity (EC), Power of Hydrogen (pH), Sodium percentage (Na%), Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Magnesium Adsorption Ratio (MAR), Kelly’s Ratio (KR), climate factor, aquifer thickness, and aquifer elevation. Three datasets are integrated to produce the suitability model, including geophysical data, groundwater wells data and satellite-based climate data. The criteria layers are assessed using the multi-criteria decision approach by combining them together using the weighted overlay function in ArcGIS 10.5. Appropriate weights assigned and integrated into GIS to create the groundwater suitability map for irrigation. Finally, the suitability of the study area for irrigation purposes with its percent to the total area is classified into three classes according to the set criteria used for this purpose: high suitability (35.41%), low suitability (44.22%), and unsuitable/excluded (20.37%).

Breeding for crops in the context of climate change necessitates phenotyping tools for roots in field conditions. Such in-field phenotyping requires the development of rapid and non-destructive measurement techniques for the screening of relevant root traits under sub-optimal conditions. In this study, we used scanner-based minirhizotrons to measure in situ the root length and surface/volume densities of roots for four wheat varieties, under four different growth conditions: irrigated and rainfed coupled with optimal and sub-optimal N fertilization under a Mediterranean climate. For all the treatments, grain yield correlates with minirhizotron-based root surface density measured at anthesis (r2 = 0.48). Irrigated and rainfed conditions led to contrasted relations between roots and grain yield: no correlation was found in irrigated plots, while under rainfed conditions and sub-optimal fertilization, the higher yields are related to a higher root colonization of the deeper soil layers (r2 = 0.40). Shoot biomass was correlated to grain yield in irrigated conditions, but not in rainfed conditions. However, for the latter, the total root weight, the proportion of which being mainly located in the top soil, is not related to the grain yield. In this way, we show the relationship between these higher grain yields and a stress avoidance mechanism of the root system characterized by a higher root density in the deep soil layers. Thus, unlike shoot biomass measurements, scanner-based minirhizotron allows the direct detection of such a stress-related root development, and therefore opens the door to a better prediction of grain yield.

Curve fitting to unorganized data points is a very challenging problem that arises in a wide variety of scientific and engineering applications. Given a set of scattered and noisy data points, the goal is to construct a curve that corresponds to the best estimate of the unknown underlying relationship between two variables. Although many papers have addressed the problem, this remains very challenging. In this paper we propose to solve the curve fitting problem to noisy scattered data using a parallel hierarchical genetic algorithm and B-splines. We use a novel hierarchical structure to represent both the model structure and the model parameters. The best B-spline model is searched using bi-objective fitness function. As a result, our method determines the number and locations of the knots, and the B-spline coefficients simultaneously and automatically. In addition, to accelerate the estimation of B-spline parameters the algorithm is implemented with two levels of parallelism, taking advantages of the new hardware platforms. Finally, to validate our approach, we fitted curves from scattered noisy points and results were compared through numerical simulations with several methods, which are widely used in fitting tasks. Results show a better performance on the reference methods.
Application of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks and Smartphone Sensors for Indoor Localization
Authors: Ashraf Imran , Hur Soojung , Park Yongwan
Published: June 2019

Indoor localization systems are susceptible to higher errors and do not meet the current standards of indoor localization. Moreover, the performance of such approaches is limited by device dependence. The use of Wi-Fi makes the localization process vulnerable to dynamic factors and energy hungry. A multi-sensor fusion based indoor localization approach is proposed to overcome these issues. The proposed approach predicts pedestrians’ current location with smartphone sensors data alone. The proposed approach aims at mitigating the impact of device dependency on the localization accuracy and lowering the localization error in the magnetic field based localization systems. We trained a deep learning based convolutional neural network to recognize the indoor scene which helps to lower the localization error. The recognized scene is used to identify a specific floor and narrow the search space. The database built of magnetic field patterns helps to lower the device dependence. A modified K nearest neighbor (mKNN) is presented to calculate the pedestrian’s current location. The data from pedestrian dead reckoning further refines this location and an extended Kalman filter is implemented to this end. The performance of the proposed approach is tested with experiments on Galaxy S8 and LG G6 smartphones. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can achieve an accuracy of 1.04 m at 50 percent, regardless of the smartphone used for localization. The proposed mKNN outperforms K nearest neighbor approach, and mean, variance, and maximum errors are lower than those of KNN. Moreover, the proposed approach does not use Wi-Fi for localization and is more energy efficient than those of Wi-Fi based approaches. Experiments reveal that localization without scene recognition leads to higher errors.

Published: June 2019

Aerospace heritage requires tools that allow its transfer and conservation beyond photographs and texts. The complexity of these engineering projects can be collected through digital graphic representation. Nevertheless, physical scale models provide additional information of high value when they involve full detailed information, for which the model in engineering was normally one more product of the manufacturing process, which entails a high cost. However, the standardization of digital fabrication allows the manufacture of high-detail models at low cost. For this reason, in this paper a case study of the graphic reengineering and planning stages for digital fabrication of a full-scale high-detail model (HDM) of the spatial instrument of the European Space Agency, named the Solar Orbiter mission Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO/PHI), is presented. After the analysis of this experience, seven stages of planning and graphic reengineering are proposed through collaborative work for the low cost digital manufacture of HDMs.
