Authors: Jabber Adil Shbeeb
Published: April 2019

Incremental sheet metal forming process is an advanced flexible manufacturing process to produce various 3D products without using dedicated tool as in conventional metal forming. There are a lot of process parameters that have effect on this process, studying the effect of some parameters on the strain distributions of the product over the length of deformation is the aim of this study.

In order to achieve this goal, three factors (tool forming shape, feed rate and incremental step size) are examined depending on three levels on the strain distributions over the wall of the product. Strain measurement was accomplished by using image processing technique using MATALB program. The significance of the control factors are explored using two statistical methods:  analysis of variance (ANOVA) and main effect plot (MEP). All experiments were carried out on a sheet of Aluminum alloy (Al1050) with thickness 0.9 mm by using 3 axes CNC machine to produce frustum pyramid product. The result showed that the feed rate is a parameter that has large effect on the values of the effective strain percentage contribution of (42.86% and 51.42%), respectively, and is followed by step size (25.1% and 30.60%) percentage contributions and finally the tool shape with (21.79% and 10.54%) on the (55° and 45°) wall angle, respectively. The maximum and minimum average effective strain computed on the 55◦ forming angle were (0.580 and 0.399), respectively. Finally, the maximum and minimum average effective strain computed on the 45◦ forming angle were equal to (0.412 and 0.324), respectively.

Authors: Heintz Douglas , Gryk Michael R
Published: April 2019

This paper describes our recent and ongoing efforts to enhance the curation of scientific workflows to improve reproducibility and reusability of biomolecular nuclear magnetic resonance (bioNMR) data. Our efforts have focused on both developing a workflow management system, called CONNJUR Workflow Builder (CWB), as well as refactoring our workflow data model to make use of the PREMIS model for digital preservation. This revised workflow management system will be available through the NMRbox cloud-computing platform for bioNMR. In addition, we are implementing a new file structure which bundles the original binary data files along with PREMIS XML records describing the provenance of the data. These are packaged together using a standardized file archive utility. In this manner, the provenance and data curation information is maintained together along with the scientific data. The benefits and limitations of these approaches, as well as future directions, are discussed in this paper.

Authors: Volkova Nelly А.
Published: April 2019

Introduction. Working time standardization based on typical standardization and practical application of standards by educational organizations has been analyzed; the structure of working time for teachers has been developed. The variety of types of work carried out by teaching staff, which, in turn, are morally outdated, and the lack of their typical standardization (with the exception of training activity) require a thorough approach to the issues of working time standardization for teaching staff. Materials and methods. The study has been performed on the basis of regulatory and legislative acts operating in the territory of the Russian Federation in the area of educational activities in terms of working time standardization for teachers, monitoring and desk research of local regulations issued by higher learning educational institutions, a local provision on an effective contract with teaching employees of NRU MGSU, the heuristic method for individual expert assessment of the heads of structural units from different levels of NRU MGSU, and the empirical method. Results. An integrated model and methodological approaches for effective planning of academic activities in sectoral higher education organizations within the framework of implementation of an effective contract in order to rationalize the labor costs of teaching staff are proposed. The improvement and optimization of the working time standardization for pedagogical workers afford opportunities to further develop the university and to solve its priority tasks. Conclusions. The integration model for the interaction between the teaching staff performance indicators and the types of pedagogical work during the implementation of an effective contract and methodological approaches to standardization make it possible to increase the efficiency of the work of teachers and the competitive power of the university.

Authors: Sainov Mikhail P. , Korolev Evgenii V.
Published: April 2019

Introduction. The system of higher education in Russia is in the state of permanent transformation. During the recent period the aim of transformations has been adapting professional educational programs to the demands of community of professionals. The result of these transformations is approval of updated federal state educational standards, which obtained abbreviation “FSES 3++”. The essence of the standards updating is in establishing rules of accounting professional standards at development of professional educational programs. Starting from 2019 the training of personnel for construction industry will be fulfilled in compliance with FSES 3++. The training content of graduates is determined by educational organizations in compliance with exemplary main educational programs (EMEP). The article describes the experience of Federal educational methodical association in the system of higher education in an enlarged group of specialties and areas of training 08.00.00 Engineering and construction technology for development of EMEP.

Materials and methods. In order to ensure the uniformity of the requirements for education of graduates of different profiles and qualifications, it was decided to develop EMEP for each of the main directions (profiles) of educational programs. As part of the development of EMEP, a methodology for formulating professional competencies based on an analysis of the requirements of professional standards was proposed and applied. Formulation of indicators of achievements in competencies was carried out in the form of a description of labour actions.

Results. To date several draft EMEPs have been worked out for different directions and levels of education. A proven methodology for development of EMEP is used to compile EMEP for other areas.

Conclusions. The process of harmonizing the educational and professional standards will permit not only solving the problem of professional orientation of educational programs, but also in this regard the task of ensuring quality of graduates training required by employers. For this purpose, EMEP should be developed separately according to the directions of educational programs and establish mandatory professional competencies. Such an approach to the development of EMEP also ensures the achievement of unity of the educational system as one of the requirements of the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”.

Authors: Kar Mousumi , Pratim Houdhury , Pillai Sujit , Nagendra Singh
Published: April 2019

Alginate microspheres for a highly water soluble antidiabetic drug Metformin hydrochloride was prepared by ionic gelation method and investigated for its various physicochemical and release properties. To prevent a rapid drug release from alginate microspheres in simulated gastro-intestinal media, alginate microspheres were blended with polymers, hydroxy propyl methylcellulose, methylcellulose, chitin and chitosan and evaluated as additive polymers for controlling the drug release. Results indicated that quantity of polymer; gelating agent and time of cross-linking affected the shape, size and release characteristics from the prepared dosage forms. Use of polymers to retard the release of drug was effective. Drug release from the microspheres followed swelling and erosion. The selected batches sustained the release of the drug for more than 8 h. and showed drug entrapment efficiency up to 85%. As the polymer concentration in the formulation increased, the drug release generally decreased. HPMC-blended microspheres swelled but withstood the disintegration, showing an ideal linear release profiles. The zero order release was shown by all the formulations except when chitosan was incorporated. In comparison with chitosan-blended microspheres, HPMC-blended and MC blended alginate microspheres can be easily made and used for controlled drug delivery systems due to convenient process and better controlled drug release.

The effect of Nipah Virus Infection is increasing day by day in today’s scenario and more number of cases are found in various countries. In India it was discovered in Sikkim, Siliguri and West Bengal. It is near borders with China, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sikkim. The primary pathways of transmission is from bats to people, in Bangladesh its transformed via contamination of raw date palm sap by bats with subsequent consumption by humans and through infection of domestic animals (cattle, pigs, and goats), presumably from consumption of food contaminated with bat saliva or urine with subsequent transmission to people. It is found in both species of humans as well as animals more number of deaths was found in the both spices, hence zoonotics. Laboratory investigations at the time of the outbreak did not show or identify an infectious agent. Approximately half of recognized Nipah cases in Bangladesh developed their disease following person to person transmission of the virus. Efforts to prevent transmission should focus on decreasing bat access to date palm sap and reducing family members' and friends' exposure to infected patients' saliva or body fluids.

Authors: SILVA Isis Arend da , CAMPAGNA Adriana Rosa , LIPP-NISSINEN Kátia Helena
Published: April 2019

Empreendimentos de mineração, como a extração de ágata no Rio Grande Sul (RS), geram impactos ambientais e, por obrigação legal, as áreas degradadas devem ser recuperadas. O Plano de Recuperação de Áreas Degradadas (PRAD) é o instrumento que visa qualificar os projetos, porém, nem sempre é suficientemente detalhado quanto às metodologias a serem empregadas. O presente artigo revisa e discute as mais apropriadas técnicas de bioengenharia empregadas em processos de Recuperação de Área Degradada (RAD) globalmente, com ênfase na aplicação em garimpos. Métodos eficazes para remodelamento e estabilidade do relevo, drenagem, manejo de solo, e oportunidades de reaproveitamento de rejeitos são indicados. Estratégias para a seleção de plantas e técnicas de plantio são comparadas. Em todos os casos, são priorizadas alternativas viáveis sob os aspectos ambientais e econômicos. Resultados mais satisfatórios são oriundos da restauração ecológica, uma prática de revegetação atualmente em expansão. A Análise Funcional de Ecossistema/Paisagem (EFA) é a metodologia recomendada para um monitoramento mais abrangente do processo. A inclusão do PRAD desde o planejamento inicial da mina reverterá no sucesso da recuperação. Este estudo poderá contribuir para a minimização de impactos e passivos, norteando, por exemplo, a elaboração de termos de referência para PRAD no licenciamento ambiental da mineração por garimpo. Palavras-chave. Ágata, bioengenharia, licenciamento ambiental, planos de recuperação de áreas, restauração ecológica, termos de referência.

Authors: Dallabona Lara Fabiana , Nardelli Leonardo Tomasoni , Fernandes Ana Rita Venzon
Published: April 2019

Objetivo: Identificar a percepção dos líderes em relação às variáveis contingenciais e os Sistemas de Controle Gerencial predominantes em uma rede de supermercados do Brasil.Fundamento: A Teoria da Contingência propõe que as estruturas organizacionais e os processos eficientes dependem do contexto da organização (Waterhouse & Tiessen, 1978), o que sugere que variáveis contingenciais, como o tamanho, ambiente, estrutura e outras, influenciam o desempenho e a utilização dos Sistemas de Controle Gerencial.Método: Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo com utilização da técnica de consenso, pesquisa descritiva e de levantamento, envolvendo uma amostra de 126 líderes, com cargos de diretores, gerentes, supervisores e outras funções com poder de decisão nos supermercados pesquisados.Resultados: Houve predominância da variável contingencial tecnologia, seguida da incerteza ambiental. Os gestores dos supermercados precisam estar atentos a novas tendências, a fim de agilizarem processos e diminuírem custos para serem capazes de fidelizar e atrair novos clientes. Os Sistemas de Controle Gerencial predominantes foram os controles formais. Esses sistemas englobam o orçamento tradicional e métodos de custeio que auxiliam na tomada de decisões.Contribuições: Por considerar que a Teoria da Contingência existe no contexto da mudança ambiental evolucionária, as organizações eficazes são aquelas capazes de adaptarem-se as variáveis ambientais (Wright, Kroll & Parnell, 2007). Estudos envolvendo a Teoria da Contingência se tornam relevantes ao explorar algumas variáveis contingenciais que impactam na gestão organizacional e consequentemente nos SCG, o que faz com que este estudo se torne relevante para a literatura.
Accuracy Estimation Analysis of Land Parcel Area Determination Based on Aerosurveying Materials in Comparison with Results of Ground Geodetic Measurements
Authors: Tserklevich Anatoliy , Khoptar Vasyl
Published: April 2019

The presence of a large number of territorial units with a high price of land determines the appropriate accuracy of their area determination in the short term. The widespread use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is a modern geospatial mapping technology. Using an UAV equipped with appropriate devices for aerosurveying  such as, for example, the Trimble UX5  is economically feasible in comparison with ground geodetic measurements, since the latter requires a lot of costs. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to analyze accuracy estimation of land parcel area determination based on aero surveying materials using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in comparison with results of ground geodetic measurements using a total station. As a result, a comparison of detailed plan and an existing base of land parcel measurements with accuracy estimations have been made. Based on our analysis and experimental studies, we can state that the UAV allows more efficient data collection within the requirements of land management in comparison with ground geodetic measurements. The use of aero surveying materials for determination of land parcel areas has been proposed. The results of the study provide an opportunity to improve the reliability of land parcel data in the normative and methodological framework.

Authors: Holienčinová Mária , Holota Tomáš
Published: April 2019

While the rural tourism is widespread in the world, in Slovakia has just started to develop in recent years. Rural tourism supports small and medium-sized enterprises, with profits remaining in the region. A challenge for ensuring sustainable development in rural areas is to cover the development needs of the community. Rural tourism has been indicated as a good development strategy for Slovak rural areas. It is a great opportunity for those who not only love the region but also are interested in its comprehensive development- in the form of providing services. These strategic goals cannot be achieved without modern approaches and forms of marketing management. Destination management fully supported by the right marketing principles is the only way how to increase income from tourism and enhance the region. The main aim of this paper is to point out the importance of marketing in the process of the sustainable rural tourism development. Key findings indicate that marketing provides the guidance and ideas for further improvements in the sector of rural tourism.
Capital Market Development and Confidence in Disclosure Quality
Authors: Friedman Henry L.
Published: April 2019

Using a survey-based measure that directly captures beliefs about disclosure quality (SFARS) in a panel with over 1,000 country-year observations, this study examines macro-level capital market consequences of confidence in disclosure quality. Supporting construct validity, SFARS is associated with prior measures of disclosure quality, tends to decline around accounting scandals, and tends to increase around corporate reforms. Evidence from panel regressions controlling for country effects, prior levels of market development, and other plausible determinants suggests that more positive beliefs about disclosure quality are associated with credit market development, but inferences associated with equity market development are sensitive to empirical specification and variable definitions. Additional analyses find little support for the effects of SFARS on capital market development varying with other macroeconomic or institutional features.

Compression behavior of selected laser melted Al/quasicrystal composite lattice structure
Authors: Kang N. , Lin X. , Xu J. , Joguet D. , Li Q. , Liao H. L. , Huang W. D. , Coddet C.
Published: April 2019

In this work, Al/quasicrystal (QC) composite lattice samples with several cellular sizes ranging from 1.5 to 5 mm were manufactured using selective laser melting (SLM). The porosity of all the designed lattice structure samples is fixed as 50%. The morphology of QC reinforcement on the top surface changes from micro desquamated to nano in situ reacted, as the cellular size increases. The result indicates that cellular size has a significant influence on the compressive behavior of SLM processed lattice samples. As the cellular size increases from 1.5 to 5 mm, the fractural mechanism changes from three stages of linear elastic-plateau-densification to two stages of elastic collapse. Moreover, both the first peak compressive strength and the strain at failure decrease, when the cellular size increases. Furthermore, the SLM processed lattice 3 sample, which possesses a large cellular size, broke into small fragments after the compression test.

The Pursuit of Purposeful Partnerships-Making A Health Matrix Successful
Authors: Way Phillip Lewis , Davidson Patricia M , Winkworth Gail , White Michael
Published: April 2019

Objective: To analyse a matrix model of management to optimize the partnerships, collaboration and interaction between vertical management structures (services and geographical clusters) and horizontal clinical structures (Clinical Networks and Streams) in a large Local Health District [LHD] in New South Wales, Australia.

Approach: An ‘Action Research’ approach utilising a maturity tool, the Collaboration Rubric®, an evidence-based model for Network analysis. The rubric describes four types of collaboration and defines the three essential drivers that allow successful collaborations.

Outcomes: Benchmarking comparisons indicate that this LHD is operating at a level well above base level for the three drivers that enable collaboration [capacity, authority and shared value]. The professional relationship between Clinical Networks/ Streams and Operational Managers, is the main barrier to improving collaboration. The Operational Managers have clear positional authority related to the organisational structure and are accountable to their Executive for good governance and financial management. Clinical leaders hold substantial influential power derived from their professional authority.

The following actions have been identified to improve collaboration.

Ensure all leaders actively “manage for collaboration“

Executive fosters joint innovation projects characterised by collaborative practice between the Clinical Networks/Streams and Operational Managers.

Ensure leadership accountabilities are held as close as possible to any projects (locally) involving reform or innovation

Clinical Network/Streams’ operational plans are jointly agreed with local management and signed off by Executive

LHD recruit leadership with skills in managing for collaboration

Conclusions: This evaluation supports the use an Action Research approach using the Collaboration Rubric® as a useful tool to define not only the type of collaboration required but the key drivers that must be addressed to facilitate improved [horizontal and vertical] partnerships leading to better outcomes. This local health district will build improved collaboration utilising the insights gained from this analysis.
GAYA BAHASA DAKWAH DI DAERAH PESISIR

Published: April 2019

Islam adalah agama dakwah yakni agama yang mengajak pada kebaikan dan mencegah pada kemungkaran pada seluruh umat Islam dimanapun ia berada, tak terkecuali bagi umat Islam yang berada di daerah pesisir. Hal ini dikarenakan dakwah merupakan usaha peningkatan pemahaman keagamaan untuk mengubah pandangan hidup, sikap batin, dan prilaku ummat yang tidak sesuai dengan ajaran Agama Islam menjadi sesuai dengan tuntunan syariat Islam untuk memperoleh kebahagiaan dunia dan akhirat. Banyak cara yang dilakukan oleh para penceramah untuk dapat memasuki ritme ataupun tipe jama’ahnya, termasuk dengan memilih gaya bahasa yang sesuai dengan latar belakang sosial, ekonomi, pendidikan, maupun geografisnya. Khususnya keadaan geografis jama’ah, terkadang menjadi tantangan bagi para alim ulama dalam memilih gaya berdakwah maupun gaya bahasa mereka dalam berdakwah agar mereka dapat diterima dengan baik.

Pluralisme dan Radikalisme Muslim Masyarakat Transisi: Ekspresi Keberagamaan di Kawasan Industri Kabupaten Bekasi
Authors: Rosdiawan Ridwan
Published: April 2019

Kawasan industry Kabupaten Bekasi dipilih sebagai sampel karena karakternya yang khas. Kehidupan tipe masyarakat pedesaan beralih secara cepat menuju tipe masyarakat perkotaan akibat industrialisasi. Adapun topic ekspresi keberagamaan yang dipilih adalah pluralism dan radikalisme dari masyarakat Muslim yang berdomisili di kawasan tersebut. Penentuan fokus masyarakat Muslim dilatarbelakangi oleh rasionalisasi bahwa mereka adalah penduduk dominan yang paling mewarnai kehidupan sosial di sekitarnya. Dengan menggunakan teknik penelitian lapangan melalui pengumpulan data berdasarkan observasi, wawancara dan kuesioner, penelitian ini diarahkan untuk mengklarifikasi fokus penelitian yang diformulasikan dalam bentuk pertanyaan: Bagaimanakah transisi kehidupan sosial akibat industrialisasi berkontribusi terhadap pluralism dan radikalisme masyarakat Muslim Kabupaten Bekasi?

Dengan menafsirkan data melalui pendekatan deskriptif-analitis, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa transisi akibat industrialisasi memang sangat berpengaruh terhadap sikap pluralism masyarakat Muslim. Namun, pluralism itu masih sangat datar dan dangkal (superficial) sehingga sangat mungkin seketika berubah radikal seiring berubahnya kondisi-kondisi umum di sekitar.

Kedua agama ini jelas berbeda, tidak akan pernah sama, sebab lahir dan berkembang dengan proses yang berbeda pula. Islam bersumber dari pemilik alam semesta terkondisikan melalui sebuah keyakinan/iman terucap dari syahadat. Sedangkan Budha juga mengklaim bahwa ajaran mereka adalah ajaran yang bersumber pada keyakinan pada satu wujud yang memiliki welas asih dan kebijaksanaan sebab adanya hubungan kausal. Keyakinan dalam buddhis, bercirikan: Membuka pandangan; meliputi keterbukaan dan keingintahuan dan Praktik; meliputi ritual (puja) dan pelaksanaan moralitas (sila) yang benar. Tulisan singkat ini akan sedikit menggambarkan tentang makna persaudaraan ajaran Islam dan ajaran Budha dalam studi komparatif; sebagai bagian memahami perbedaan dalam konsep kebhinekaan; dengan pesan semoga konflik yang terjadi dibelahan dunia atas nama agama mayoritas dan minoritas tidak lagi bertambah dan menjadi.
