Analytical modelling of eddy current response from driver pick-up coils on multi-layered conducting plates
Authors: Cao Binghua , Li Chao , Fan Mengbao , Ye Bo , Gao Shang
Published: February 2018

A driver pick-up probe possesses better sensitivity and flexibility due to individual optimisation of its coils. It is preferred for sophisticated applications, such as an eddy current array probe. In this study, a non-coaxial cylindrical driver pick-up probe above a multi-layered conducting
plate has been analytically modelled with coordinate transformation for eddy current non-destructive evaluation. The reflection and transmission theory of electromagnetic fields is adopted to derive the generalised reflection coefficient for a layered plate, which measures the relationship
between the primary and secondary eddy current fields. The calculated values from the resultant model indicate good agreement with those from the finite element model and experiments.

Authors: Rojas Sánchez Carolina , Gómez Olaya Álvaro Pío
Published: February 2018

La proliferación de acuerdos comerciales bilaterales ha creado un fenómeno conocido en la literatura como “organización regional en ejes” o bilateralismo “eje-radios” (hub-spoke).  En este contexto, la política comercial de Colombia está orientada hacia la firma de acuerdos comerciales bilaterales. El artículo evalúa la política de firma de acuerdos bilaterales implementada por Colombia entre 1990-2015. Se analizan los flujos comerciales entre Colombia y diversos países aplicando el índice HM de Baldwin (2004) y la matriz de Chen (2008), que permiten medir la organización regional del comercio en ejes. Se encuentra que se ha consolidado un sistema de economías ejes y radios. Los resultados obtenidos cuestionan la política de firma de acuerdos colombiana.

Estabilidade da moeda no plano real: política compensatória?
Authors: Faro Kelly Cardoso
Published: February 2018

O presente trabalho enfoca o estudo da política inflacionária brasileira na década de 1990 à luz do comportamento do Plano Real, não apenas em termos da estabilidade monetária, mas também em termos do desempenho empresarial, haja vista que a indústria brasileira nos anos 1990 sofre os reflexos do ambiente macroeconômico e das reformas estruturais implementadas no Brasil. A apresentação do programa de estabilização anterior – Plano Collor – se faz necessário para fins de equiparação e melhor elucidação dos resultados do Plano Real e da ação estatal no período. A estabilização dos preços fora alcançada, todavia se exacerbou as fragilidades competitivas da indústria nacional e não houve rearranjo fiscal tributário com elevação da progressividade, o que leva à crítica de que a estabilidade da moeda é necessária, porém seu papel de primazia enquanto objetivo de política econômica é controverso.
Alimentação do escolar: percepção de quem prepara e oferece as refeições na escola
Authors: Assao Tatiana Yuri , Westphal Marcia Faria , Bógus Cláudia Maria , Cervato-Mancuso Ana Maria
Published: February 2018

O objetivo da pesquisa foi identificar as percepções vinculadas à alimentação escolar entre merendeiras de escolas públicas do município de Guarulhos (SP). Tratou-se de um estudo descritivo com abordagem qualitativa. Participaram 22 merendeiras das 13 instituições selecionadas, dentre 63 escolas do ensino fundamental. Para coleta dos dados optou-se pela técnica do grupo focal. As informações obtidas foram gravadas, transcritas e submetidas à análise de conteúdo. As percepções das merendeiras sobre alimentação escolar apareceram vinculadas às características do ambiente escolar e do alimento. As deficiências de espaço físico, equipamentos e materiais foram associados às dificuldades no desenvolvimento do trabalho e, consequentemente, na preparação e distribuição de uma alimentação adequada. A alimentação escolar, de acordo com esses profissionais, deveria ser nutricionalmente adequada e composta por gêneros de qualidade. As merendeiras possuem um papel importante na alimentação escolar, mas são poucas as oportunidades que lhes são oferecidas para interferir em algumas questões que percebem inadequadas. A atuação desses profissionais acaba se restringindo às ações operacionais, visto que outros atores e as próprias merendeiras, não percebem o espaço existente para ampliar a sua atuação na educação nutricional.
Codex Alimentarius: a segurança alimentar sob a ótica da qualidade
Authors: Ortega Antonio César , Borges Michelle da Silva
Published: February 2018

As crises e escândalos alimentares, ocorridas principalmente a partir de meados de 1990, tiveram repercussões negativas no mercado mundial de alimentos, perturbando o fluxo de comércio e a confiança dos consumidores. Para que este mercado não entrasse em colapso foram acionados mecanismos que restabelecessem a dinâmica do ambiente institucional do mercado de alimentos, o qual engloba entre outros, o setor público, organismos não governamentais e consumidores. Assim, garantir a inocuidade dos alimentos passou a ser uma meta conjunta de todos os agentes econômicos envolvidos neste mercado. Entre esses mecanismos, destaca-se o Codex Alimentarius. O objetivo desse trabalho é analisar o papel e o funcionamento do Codex no mercado mundial de alimentos. Conclui-se que, ao fazer parte dos Acordos da Organização Mundial de Comércio (OMC), o Codex passou a integrar a agenda política internacional, fazendo parte de um poderoso arcabouço legal para regulamentação do mercado de alimentos. Os países desenvolvidos são os maiores beneficiários desses acordos, uma vez que possuem maior grau de organização, tanto no campo científico-tecnológico, quanto no jurídico, para seguir essas normas e cobrar suas aplicações. Entretanto, os países em desenvolvimento precisam definir políticas públicas e de aperfeiçoamento de seus sistemas de controle, prevenção e inspeção, cuja capacidade e custos vêm apresentando dificuldades.

O peixe e a saúde: das recomendações para o consumo às possibilidades ambientais de atendê-lo
Authors: Oliveira Julicristie Machado de
Published: February 2018

As demandas pelos peixes sofreram alterações nos últimos anos, especialmente devido à associação entre a ingestão deste item aos benefícios à saúde. O objetivo desta reflexão é problematizar estas questões, a partir de um paralelo entre as recomendações nutricionais, a pressão pelo consumo e as possibilidades ambientais de atendê-lo. As instituições nacionais e internacionais recomendam a ingestão de porções que variam de 75-112 g de peixes, ao menos duas vezes por semana. Estudos epidemiológicos e sócio-antropológicos apontam que o consumo de peixe está inserido em um padrão moderno de consumo alimentar e associado a melhores condições socioeconômicas, e é considerado nos discursos como “comida de rico”, “comida grã-fina”, “...coisas importadas, o que é de melhor”. As estimativas apontam um consumo de pescados de 8,3 a 10,0 kg/pessoa/ano no Brasil, considerados abaixo do recomendado, 12,0 kg/pessoa/ano. A divulgação científica sobre os benefícios da ingestão dos ácidos graxos poliinsaturados ômega-3, aliada à grande exploração da mídia, potencializam a busca por peixes, especialmente o salmão e o atum. Porém, na contramão destas pressões, estudos são produzidos para se discutir de forma mais aprofundada os impactos ambientais das demandas por estes alimentos, evidenciando as relações de interdependência entre padrões de consumo e as impossibilidades ambientais..

Teaching Content Using English as a Medium of Instruction at Universities in Vietnam: Issues and Solutions
Authors: Ngo Cam , Hendricks LaVelle , Tietjen-Smith Tara , Dang Quynh
Published: February 2018

In the globalization era, English is becoming the official international language. This originates from the importance of English in the stages of integration, internationalization, and globalization. English is the language of computer science, economics, science, and technology. Actually, future Vietnamese scientists not only need to grasp the knowledge of their specializations in the Vietnamese language but also to be able to expand the international relationships with their foreign counterparts and take advantage of opportunities for joining scientific projects with their colleagues from developed countries, so that they can contribute to the global achievements of science. For that, they need to possess a good command of the English language. For aforementioned reasons, English should be used as the medium language for content instruction at Vietnamese universities. Using English as a Medium of Instruction (EMOI) becomes a necessity at Vietnamese universities on a large scale. In terms of majors and schools, priority can be given to such fields as industry, economics, technology, and natural sciences.
HIVEC: A Hierarchical Approach for Vector Representation Learning of Graphs
Authors: Patel Ayushi , Mathiraj Ramakrishna R , Jai Mausam , Singh Krishnakant , Sivadasan Naveen , Balasubramanian Vineeth N
Published: February 2018

This paper presents a new method : HIVEC to learn latent vector representations of graphs in a manner that captures the semantic dependencies of sub-structures. The representations can then be used in machine learning algorithms for tasks such as graph classification, clustering etcetera. The method proposed is unsupervised and uses the information of co-occurrence of sub-structures. It introduces a notion of hierarchical embeddings that allows us to avoid repetitive learning of sub-structures for every new graph. As an alternative to deep learning methods, the edit distance similarity between sub-structures is also used to learn vector representations. We compare the performance of these methods against previous work.

Published: February 2018

Objective: To evaluate three different microincisional ab interno trabeculectomy procedures in a porcine eye perfusion model. Methods: In perfused porcine anterior segments, 90 degrees of trabecular meshwork (TM) were ablated using the Trabectome (T; n = 8), Goniotome (G; n = 8), or Kahook device (K; n = 8). After 24 hours, additional 90 degrees of TM were removed. Intraocular pressure (IOP) and outflow facility were measured at 5 µL/min and 10 µL/min perfusion to simulate an elevated IOP. Structure and function were assessed with canalograms and histology. Results: At 5 µL/min infusion rate, T resulted in a greater IOP reduction than G or K from baseline (76.12% decrease versus 48.19% and 47.96%, P = 0.013). IOP reduction between G and K was similar (P = 0.420). Removing another 90 degrees of TM caused an additional IOP reduction only in T and G but not in K. Similarly, T resulted in the largest increase in outflow facility at 5 µL/min compared with G and K (first ablation: 3.41 times increase versus 1.95 and 1.87; second ablation: 4.60 versus 2.50 and 1.74) with similar results at 10 µL/min (first ablation: 3.28 versus 2.29 and 1.90 (P = 0.001); second ablation: 4.10 versus 3.01 and 2.01 (P = 0.001)). Canalograms indicated circumferential flow beyond the ablation endpoints. Conclusions: T, G and K significantly increased the outflow facility. In this model, T had a larger effect than G and K.

Published: February 2018

Background:

New medical technologies are often used widely without adequate supporting data, a practice that can lead to widespread catastrophic failure such as occurred with metal-on-metal (MoM) hip replacements. We determined both how revision rates would have differed if, instead of receiving MoM hip replacements, patients had received existing alternatives and the subsequent cumulative re-revision rates of the patients who did receive MoM hip replacements compared with alternatives.

Methods:

This study is a population-based longitudinal cohort study of patient data recorded in the National Joint Registry (NJR) for England, Wales and Northern Ireland between April 2003 and December 2014. We ascertained implant failure rates separately among stemmed MoM total hip replacement (THR) and hip-resurfacing procedures and, using flexible parametric survival modeling, compared them with the failure rates that would have been expected had existing alternatives been used. We used Kaplan-Meier survivorship analysis to compare cumulative re-revision of patients who received stemmed MoM primary replacements that failed and of those who underwent hip resurfacing that failed with those whose non-MoM THRs had failed.

Results:

In all, 37,555 patients underwent MoM hip resurfacing, with a 10-year revision rate of 12.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.2% to 13.1%) compared with a predicted revision rate of 4.8% if alternative implants had been used. The 32,024 stemmed MoM THRs had a 19.8% (95% CI: 18.9% to 20.8%) 10-year failure rate compared with an expected rate of 3.9% if alternatives had been used. For every 100 MoM hip-resurfacing procedures, there were 7.8 excess revisions by 10 years, and for every 100 stemmed MoM THR procedures, there were 15.9, which equates to 8,021 excess first revisions. Seven-year re-revision rates were 14.9% (95% CI: 13.8% to 16.2%) for stemmed non-MoM THRs, 18.0% (95% CI: 15.7% to 20.7%) for MoM hip resurfacing, and 19.8% (95% CI: 17.0% to 23.0%) for stemmed MoM THRs.

Conclusions:

This study highlights the consequences of widespread and poorly monitored adoption of a medical technology. Over 1 million MoM hip prostheses were implanted worldwide. The excess failure on a global scale will be enormous. This practice of adopting new technologies without adequate supporting data must not be repeated.

Opioid Prescribing in Orthopaedic Surgery
Authors: Kidd Vasco Deon
Published: February 2018

The opioid epidemic, which has taken the country by storm, will invariably change prescriber behavior and potentially expose overprescribers of narcotics to medical liability. Opioid therapy has been proven to be potentially addictive, dangerous, and of limited value in addressing acute and long-term musculoskeletal pain. Therefore, orthopaedic surgery practices should adopt policies for pain management that closely align with the current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines.
Simulation the formation process of boiling water flow during depressurization of a high pressure vessel using OpenFoam open source
Authors: Bolotnova R.Kh. , Korobchinskaya V.A.
Published: February 2018

A numerical study of the initial stage of water outflow process through a thin nozzle from a supercritical state in a two-dimensional axisymmetric setting is performed using the OpenFOAM software open source with the sonicFoam solver. The mathematical model of sonicFoam solver includes the equation of mass conservation, Navier-Stokes equation, internal energy conservation and equation of state of water vapor in the form of a perfect gas. Visualization of calculation results was carried out by the ParaView graphic platform. The features of supersonic high-speed flow regime in a jet accompanied by the formation of a hollow jet in a form close to parabolic are investigated.
Dependence of the temperature distribution in the vortex tube on the geometry of the swirler
Authors: Mikhaylenko C.I.
Published: February 2018

Modeling of the vortex tube for several variants of the size and shape of inlets of the swirl is carried out. A mathematical model of the process is written. Computational modeling was based on the LES method using the PIMPLE algorithm in the OpenFOAM computational package. Considerable attention was paid to using uniform orthogonalized meshes, while the shape and size of the swirl of the swirl was determined by the feature of the mesh constructed. It is shown that, under certain initial conditions, the effect of thermal stratification can be inversed for some forms of the swirler.
Influence of the aggregate state of the dispersed phase and ultrasonic effect on the flow of emulsions in microchannels
Authors: Rakhimov A.A. , Valiev A.A.
Published: February 2018

The paper presents the results of hydrodynamic studies of inverse water hydrocarbon dispersions: emulsions and, prepared from it by freezing the dispersed phase, suspension. In addition to the high viscosity of the emulsion, a much higher viscosity of the carrier phase, the success of the use of invert emulsions in the oil industry is due to the dynamic blocking effect. The effect is that the flow velocity in the capillary structures and cracks decreases by 3-4 orders of magnitude, in spite of the constantly acting pressure drop. The work shows an increase in viscosity with decreasing temperature, while the degree of blocking of the emulsion is higher than that of the suspension prepared from it. The ultrasonic effect makes it possible to control the effect of dynamic blocking. The short-term effect of ultrasound makes it possible to restore the flow, while a longer exposure leads to the fact that blocking occurs even in ultrasound.
Guided Implant Surgery to Reduce Morbidity in Von Willebrand Disease Patients: A Case Report
Authors: Fénelon Mathilde , Castet Sabine , Fricain Jean-Christophe , Catros Sylvain
Published: February 2018

Introduction:

Von Willebrand Disease is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. In the general population, 1/8000 patients are affected. Primary hemostasis (platelet adhesion) and coagulation (protection of Factor VIII) are altered. Among several bleeding symptoms, these patients suffer from excessive bleeding of oral mucosa and dental management requires a close collaboration between haematologists and oral surgeons.

Materials & Methods:

Guided implant surgery can be used to increase the accuracy of implant placement and to reduce the overall morbidity of this surgical procedure by using a flapless surgery technique.

Case Report:

We report the case of a 49 years old woman having a Type 2A von Willebrand disease and who presented to replace tooth #.46 because of interradicular fracture and peri-apical infection. After planning the implant surgery using Codiagnostix® software, a surgical guide was prepared. The patient received 4 injections of von Willebrand factor (Willfactin®) for this particular surgical procedure. The implant was placed immediately after tooth removal and local haemostasis was performed.

Discussion:

The follow-up was uneventful and the implant was restored by a crown 4 months later. Two cases of implant placement in haemophiliac patients have been reported before in the literature.

Conclusion:

As far as we know, this is the first case report of implant placement in a patient having a von Willebrand disease. The use of guided surgery allowed to perform a mini-invasive procedure and thus contributed to prevent bleeding complications in this patient.

The Constitutional Framework of the Democratic Arabic Republic of the Sahrawi's
Authors: Van Ruysseveldt Peter
Published: February 2018

Each constitution is a juridical source of standards. Moreover, each constitution is also a political instrument which expresses a certain political philosophy. The analysis of a constitution produces views concerning the real or ideal political regime, the internal relations of power attendant upon it, the way on which the individual participates in the exercise of the political and real power, ... February 1976, the Democratic Arabic Republic of the Sahrawi's was proclaimed and the first constitution was promulgated. During its congress, August 1976, the Polisario Front voted a second constitution. Responding to the changed -and changing- international context, at which the accession of the Democratic Arabic Republic of the Sahrawi's to the Organisation of African Unity was a matter of great importance, a brand new constitution was promulgated. This constitution has force of law as long as the obtaining of independence for the Sahrawi-people isn't reached. In 1991 a new constitution was promulgated. This constitution seems to have all the stipulations, needed to be a 'good' democratic constitution. Therefore, it's now up to the Sahrawi's to realise this good intentions and to fill them in correctly. KEY WORDS: constitution, politics, Western Sahara
Lukasa! (The Devil's Toy). African Inspirations and Western Objects
Authors: Walker Drew
Published: February 2018

This paper shows the encounter between an object found among the Luba of Zaire and the art historical treatment of it by western scholars. In this encounter certain tendencies are pointed out which on one hand point to a greatly unackowledged bias of western scholars in their regarding of foreign objects as art, and on the other hand may work to refigure those ways of seeing to form a richer understanding of memory, beauty and history in western scholarly practice. KEYS WORDS : object, memory, Gift (in its German and English senses à la Marcel Mauss)
PROPER NAMES AND "MAKÙMBÙ" OF "MVÎDI MUKÙLÙ" AMONG THE BALUBÀ-KÀSAAYI
Authors: Horvath Ellen
Published: February 2018

This article attempts to analyze the proper names and "makùmbù " (or praise-names) bestowed upon the supreme being or God by the Balubà-Kàsaayï. This is done in order to have a better insight in their conceptions of God. The Balubà-Kàsaayï give several names to God, such as Mvïdi Mukùlù, Maweeja, Mulopd and Nzambi. These names are used in the makùmbù, oral formulae consisting of one or two sentences. In general they are used to praise people, spirits, animals, plants, places and even things, emphasizing their qualities. The makùmbù are used as a complementary element to or a substitution of the proper name. The makùmbù addressed to God refer to his greatness, eternity, freedom, etcetera.KEY WORDS: Congo, Balubà-Kàsaayï, God, proper names, makùmbù.
The proper name and "selfpraise poetry" in the African oral literature
Authors: Kabuta Ngo Semzara
Published: February 2018

There is a particular poetic genre in African oral literature, based on selfpraise. Selfpraise poetry is built on proper names and formulas, with the metaphor and hyperbole as central style figures. In this article, we situate the proper name inside African culture and show the link between the proper name and selfpraise. Furthermore, we try to grasp the meaning of praising oneself in African culture. The study relies essentially on Cilubà and Kilubà data, but references are made to other languages, in order to show that the genre is not limited to the Lubà oral literature. The first part concentrates on name giving and its meaning. The second part is an analysis of selfpraise poetry, with examples in different languages. Key Words: clan name, hyperbole, inner name, metaphor, oral literature, poetic name, proper name, praise name, selfpraise, social name.
