Modified Soybean Oil as a Processing Oil for Styrene-Butadiene Rubber Tire Tread Compounds
Authors: Shafranska Olena , Webster Dean C. , Chisholm Bret J. , McFarlane Sean , Tardiff Janice
Published: December 2018

Soybean oil (SBO) was modified with polystyrene via a radical graft polymerization reaction for use as a processing oil in tire tread compounds. Poly(styrene-butadiene)/polybutadiene rubber compounds with silica and carbon black, containing different processing oils including naphthenic oil (NO), aromatic oil (AO), SBO, and polystyrene-modified SBO (SBO-PS), were formulated, vulcanized, and tested. The curing behavior, mechanical properties, and dynamic properties were investigated. The cure test results showed that all SBO-based rubbers had a shorter scorch time and cure window than the NO- and AO-based rubbers.

The tensile tests demonstrated that partial and complete replacement of NO with SBO led to reduced tensile modulus but increased elongation of rubber. For the rubbers compounded with SBO-PS and with a 50/50 mixture of NO/SBO-PS, tensile strength and elongation were higher than for the NO-based rubber. The same tendency was observed when SBO-PS–based rubbers were compared with SBO- and AO-based rubbers. SBO-PS–based rubbers demonstrated better tensile properties than AO-based rubbers and far better properties than SBO-based rubbers. In the tear resistance test and durometer hardness test, SBO-PS contained rubbers that showed similar properties to NO-containing rubber.

The dynamic mechanical analysis of SBO-PS–containing rubbers demonstrated that use of this compound in tire treads is expected to improve both rolling resistance and wet traction when compared with an AO-based rubber. The modification of SBO with grafted PS is a promising method of making processing oil, which can replace petroleum-based processing oils with bio-based renewable oils in tire tread compounds while improving their properties.

Rosa versus azul: estigmas de gênero no mundo esportivo
Authors: Knijnik Jorge Dorfman
Published: December 2018

O proposito deste texto é o de trazer reflexões sobre como o fenômeno esportivo é repleto de fantasias e simbolismos de gênero que enrijecem as práticas, impedindo o pleno acesso das pessoas dos diferentes sexos às diversas atividades. Esta reflexão, por sua vez, tem a finalidade de ajudar a desconstruir a noção de que existem modalidades para homens ou mulheres, em separado, e propor assim a busca de alternativas para que essas barreiras de sexo sejam superadas. Ou seja, tem-se aqui a clareza que o esporte é um bem cultural e, como tal, um direito humano inalienável, e que deve sempre ser um instrumento tanto para a auto expressão do ser humano quanto para a ampliação da tolerância e da convivência entre os indivíduos, quaisquer que sejam as diferenças que estes possam apresentar entre si.

Published: December 2018

No Brasil 4 a 5% das mulheres correm o risco de adquirir a toxoplasmose. O objetivo desse artigo é avaliar o perfil socioeconômico das gestantes, bem como sua percepção sobre a toxoplasmose, com foco nas fontes de infecção, transmissão e nas medidas preventivas da doença. A pesquisa ocorreu mediante aplicação de questionários socioeconômicos a 68 gestantes, pacientes de postos de saúde de Barreiras. Os resultados mostraram que 66,2% das gestantes nunca ouviram falar sobre a expressão “toxoplasmose e/ou toxoplasmose congênita”, o que justifica o fato de 97% delas desconhecerem os danos à saúde causados pela taxoplasmose durante a gestação. Embora tenha se percebido falhas quanto às orientações de prevenção das gestantes, pelos profissionais de saúde, ainda assim o rastreio no pré-natal, realizados a cada trimestre da gestação, é a estratégia mais eficiente, quanto à identificação e tratamento de uma possível infecção da toxoplasmose e de outras doenças nesse período da vida. ABSTRACTIn Brazil 50 to 80% of women have been infected with toxoplasmosis. The objective of this article is to evaluate the perception of pregnant women about how to acquire and transmit toxoplasmosis. The research was carried out through the application of socioeconomic questionnaires to 68 pregnant women, patients from Barreiras health posts. The results showed that 66.2% of pregnant women had never heard of the term "toxoplasmosis and / or congenital toxoplasmosis", which explains why 97% of them do not know the health damage caused by toxoplasmosis during pregnancy. Although the pregnant women presented low perception about the infection/disease prevention guidelines, prenatal screening, performed every trimester of gestation, is the most efficient strategy in identification and treatment of a possible Toxoplasma infection and of other diseases in this period of life.

A medal minted by the Dutch West India Company in 1637 in honour of Krzysztof Arciszewski as a cartographic source
Authors: Łopatecki Karol
Published: December 2018

The author discusses a phenomenon of putting the works of military cartography on medals cast in the 17th century. The analysis focused on a medal presented to Krzysztof Arciszewski (1592-1656) by the Dutch West India Company in 1637. The obverse of this medal features two cartographic images depicting the siege of the Arraial Velho do Bom Jesus fortress (1635) and the battle between Camarigibi and Porto Calvo (1636). They were patterned after two manuscript maps. The maps were made by Arciszewski and attached to a memorandum written and sent to the management of the West India Company on 13 June 1633. They were engraved and published in print only around 1644. The plan of the battle that took place on 18 January 1636 indicates that the engraver (author unknown) used not only the manuscript version but also the medal. The example of the medal minted in 1637 confirms the credibility of cartographic representations featured on numismatic items. It should, naturally, be borne in mind that such representations must have been simplified due to the very nature of the means. Nevertheless, should there be no proper manuscript pattern, such objects may be used successfully as valuable cartographic sources.
The Interplay of Cross-Linguistic Differences and Context in L2 Idiom Comprehension
Authors: Suñer Ferran
Published: December 2018

The present study investigates to what extent the effect of cross-linguistic differences on L2 idiom comprehension is modulated by the presence of a context. Sixty students of German as a foreign language (L1 French) completed a comprehension test consisting of metaphorical idioms in the L2 that differed from their L1 equivalents conceptually and formally and were presented with or without context. The results show that an increasing degree of conceptual and formal distance as well as the absence of context are generally associated with lower performance in the idiom comprehension test. However, the analysis of interactions shows that the presence of the context was especially supportive for conceptually different items, whereas the facilitative effect of formal similarity considerably diminished with increasing conceptual distance.

Analogy, Similarity, and the Periodic Table of Arguments
Authors: Wagemans Jean H. M.
Published: December 2018

The aim of this paper is to indicate the systematic place of arguments based on the concept of analogy within the theoretical framework of the Periodic Table of Arguments, a new method for describing and classifying arguments that integrates traditional dialectical accounts of arguments and fallacies and rhetorical accounts of the means of persuasion (logos, ethos, pathos) into a comprehensive framework. The paper begins with an inventory of existing approaches to arguments based on analogy, similarity and adjacent concepts. Then, the theoretical framework of the table will be expounded and several concrete examples of arguments based on these concepts will be analyzed in terms of the framework. Finally, the results of these analyses will be summarized and it will be indicated how they can be refined in further research related to the Periodic Table of Arguments.
A New Argument Scheme for Causal Explanations by Analogy? The Case of Galileo’s Explanation of the Tides
Authors: Kremling Alexander
Published: December 2018

This paper is a case study. After formulating three norms for critical assessment of argumentation (section 1), I give a brief overview of Galileo’s argumentative strategy in his Dialogue and present his argument for the cause of the tides, which appears as an argument by analogy (section 2). I then discuss possible reconstructions of this argumentation, with one particular suggestion in detail. These arguments seem to fall short, given the aforementioned set of norms (section 3). This leads to my own proposal of Galileo’s argument. I defend this proposal and it’s general idea - that is, the argument’s pattern. It will be classified as ‘interventionist’ and useful regarding the goals of critical assessment (section 4). Finally, I suggest that the pattern of argument is applicable to other cases and useful for applied theory of science (section 5).
Ad Hominem Arguments, Rhetoric, and Science Communication
Authors: Martini Carlo
Published: December 2018

In this paper, I contend that evidence-focused strategies of science communication may be complemented by possibly more effective rhetorical arguments in current public debates on vaccines. I analyse the case of direct science communication - that is, communication of evidence - and show that it is difficult to effectively communicate evidential standards of science in the presence of well-equipped anti-science movements. Instead, I argue that effective rhetorical tools involve ad hominem strategies, that is, arguments involving claims of expertise. I provide a rationale, and sketch a methodology, for using ad hominem arguments in science communication.

Evaluation and review of sport in the context of current social trends
Authors: Koković Dragan
Published: December 2018

General level of culture does not mean that everyone is expected to become, for example, a writer, an artist, a poet, an actor or a painter but it assumes enabling people to enjoy culture and arts, and expand the range of possible enjoyments in life and the world. Likewise, introduction of children, boys and girls into the world of body culture should enrich them in this regard. Ethical and moral changes will significantly change the form of physical culture and education, and the sports life in general. Aggressiveness, false prestige, self-centredness, foul motive of achievement will be found under review. There may come a time when the sports victory will be considered and respected primarily as a result of successful mastering the strengths of one's own nature and their reasonable use. Any violence against one's own body will be considered as educational and sports misfortune or accident, as something that belongs to the ethical despise and not to the established and existing ethical norms.
One-dimensional sport spiritual crisis as a cause of degrading sport to a one-dimensional phenomenon
Authors: Despotović Ljubiša
Published: December 2018

The paper analyzes spiritual stumbling of modern man which in addition to other general aspects of life has also led to sport degradation to only one dimension - the dimension of the result covering particular material interests of having power and being popular to which all other sport components including playing as the most honorable ingredient, which in terms of anthropology defines man as a being whose essential characteristic is playing, are inferior. Spiritual stumbling of modern man is a result of ratiocentrism (that is, his abandoning the concept of theocentrism) with despair and loss of morality turning the complex body-spirit bond into an instrument and the sport competition itself into an alienating form of achieving results at all costs. As a result, athletes themselves as main participants in competitions (either against other competitors or against themselves) have become an instrument-tool for gaining profit. Spiritual stumbling have generated moral crisis and left sports and their participants without any human dimension of existence degrading them to a single physical dimension and its merciless and brutal exploitation.

A visibilidade e a autoria do tradutor na tradução de quadrinhos
Authors: Reys Bianca de Lima , Brisolara Valéria Silveira
Published: December 2018

A questão da invisibilidade do tradutor é bastante debatida dentro dos estudos da tradução, sobretudo com relação a textos literários. Contudo, pouco se estuda a questão no contexto da tradução de quadrinhos, causando uma lacuna nessa área. No Brasil, a produção e a circulação de quadrinhos têm aumentado graças a sua crescente popularização, gerando uma nova demanda no mercado: a tradução de quadrinhos. Assim, o presente trabalho visa refletir sobre como se dá a questão da visibilidade do tradutor nos quadrinhos, trazendo alguns exemplos para discussão, para também refletir sobre possíveis motivos para que tal visibilidade seja mais possível em tal gênero. Para atingir seus propósitos e contribuir com o estudo da tradução de quadrinhos, o referencial teórico adotado enfoca possíveis relações entre texto e imagem de Barthes (1990), e algumas considerações sobre os quadrinhos de Umberto Eco (1993), que dão suporte às reflexões e análises.

Published: December 2018

Accurate effort estimation of software development plays an important role to predict how much effort should be prepared during the works of a software project so that it can be completed on time and budget. Some sectors, e.g. banking sectors, were renowned fields of software projects, not only due to its huge size of project, but also extremely expensive and takes a long time to completion. Project estimation is essential for software development project able to run on time and budget with maximum quality. This study aims to investigate the accuracy of software project effort estimation with the Analogy method using three parameters: Euclidean, Manhattan and Minkowski distance. Analogy based estimation consists several stage included similarity measure, analogy adaptation, estimation calculation and model evaluation. The results showed that the best combination of Analogy methods was using Manhattan distance with an accuracy of 50% MMRE, 28% MdMRE and Pred(25) 48%. Thus, we can concluded that this model can be used to predict accurately.

ACCIOLOGICAL CONCEPT OF A NEW EDUCATIONAL STRATEGY FOR TRAINING OF TEACHERS
Authors: Ivaniuk Hanna
Published: December 2018

We consider the education of the 21st century as a process of preparing a young generation for life and work and as a means of productive changes in the state and the world dimension as a whole. The development of the education system in Ukraine is characterized by internal public inquiries and external factors that are actualized in the context of European integration. At the time – training of an innovative specialist, ready for intercultural communication and conscious protection of human virtues: individual freedoms and respect for it, culture of peace, etc.

According to the results of the analysis of philosophical, historical and pedagogical sources, the status of pedagogical practice, the axiological concept of a new educational strategy of teacher training in a higher education institution is generalized and substantiated. Education is seen as a factor in harmonization in systems: man – man, man – nature, man – technology.

The article gives a summary of the results of the study of the status of the identified problem in the practice of training the teachers of the first educational level (Bachelor) specialties «Preschool education», «Primary education». The revealed tendencies are characterized: divergence, which leads to the destruction of ties that could ensure the formation of a system of knowledge about man, nature, technology (technology) and society. Education directed towards the future should deviate from the rudiment of the knowledge-normative strategy of the Soviet model and build on values based on philosophical, ethical, aesthetic concepts. According to the results of the analysis of the study, the opinions of students, pedagogues-practitioners regarding the correspondence of the content of professional disciplines (pedagogy, psychology) to the needs of the individual, community and society are determined. A set of methods (poll, interviewing, questionnaires, pedagogical essay, mathematical statistics) allowed to reveal the dominance of moral values in the educational process (professional activity).
USE OF INTERACTIVE TECHNOLOGIES TO INCREASE STUDENT MOTIVATION LEVEL
Authors: Biryukova Tatyana , Shinkura Larisa
Published: December 2018

The article deals with the peculiarities of the use of interactive learning technologies to increase the motivation of students of the higher medical educational institution to study medical and biological physics, which is based on the knowledge of natural sciences. A graphical comparative analysis of students' responses to questions from the author's questionnaire to the use of interactive technologies and after the graphical comparison was made with the help of the program of the table processor. The emphasis is on changing the motivation to learn in the students' answers to the second questionnaire. Obvious becomes the fact of the need for additional educational work with students on the topics of medical history to help in the formation of their ultimate learning objectives.
Educational activity of students in higher educational institutions is possible, if based on motives which correspond to direct products of this activity - theoretical knowledge. Such motives are theoretical in content, educational-professional interests. If there are no such interests or they are not sufficiently developed, the student's educational activities are guided by other secondary motives: obtaining approval from parents, the desire to obtain a diploma in higher education, and have a great salary in the future. Then we can say that there is no psychological basis for the deployment of full-fledged educational and professional activities. Therefore, giving students the opportunity to improve their theoretical knowledge about the history of medicine, known doctors, about the complexities of their future profession may in some way induce a deeper understanding of the ethics of the future profession, more detailed study of various disciplines.
USING THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE PEDAGOGIC ANTHROPOLOGY IN THE STUDY OF FOREIGH LITERARY CHARACTERS
Authors: Udovychenko Larysa
Published: December 2018

This work is dedicated to the application of the foundations of pedagogic anthropology in the study of foreign literary characters.

Foreign literature as a subject and the study of literature characters is a natural environment for the application of pedagogic anthropology in the middle school, as for the readers literary heroes become role models in the development of their personality and worldview, they are the prism through which life values are perceived and evaluated and personal worldview is developed. Anthropologic component humanizes the process of learning, ensures anthropologically oriented interpretation of its contents and makes applied methodology more efficient. Here we argue for the necessity of taking into consideration distinctive features of individual pupil’s psyche in the choice of educational methodology in the study of literary characters, in particular its socio-historic nature, goal setting and prediction, abstraction, activity, creative character, self-control, articulation of ideas and results and reflection. Methods and forms of work have to motivate pupils to independently determine their readiness to work, estimate personal development, note changes in personal view and convictions, set desired trajectory for further development.

The content of educational material must ensure the formation of basic cultural values in pupils and nurture a person capable of knowingly live a life in harmony of “science, art and morals”. In these conditions literary education becomes an important factor of spiritual development of pupil readers, an important part of their consciousness and activity, facilitate spreading and following of cultural norms, values and knowledge, which are represented in literary works and their characters.

An Analysis of University Students’ Representational Fluency About the Derivative Concept
Authors:   The Korea Society Of Educational Studies In Mathematics, Lee Jihyun
Published: December 2018

External representations of mathematical concepts facilitate individuals’ thinking about those concepts. Multiple representations of a concept can convey different information and facilitate different cognitive processes. Students’ understanding of a mathematical concept can be revealed in their interactions with representations, and therefore the representational fluency was used as a multi focal lens to examine how and what students understand of it. In this study, 34 university students were assessed for representational fluency about the derivative concept, using items requiring translations from the input representation of function to the output representation of derivative that vary systematically algebraic, graphical, numerical and verbal representations. The students’ achievement levels of each item were analyzed, association analysis and hierarchical clustering were also conducted to infer the degree of connections between abilities to translate function-derivative representations as a connected knowledge network. Although there was high achievement of some items, the participants in this study got low achievement in several items, which involve verbal representation of derivative and applying derivative concept to functions represented non-algebraically, and there were few statistically significant associations between two translation abilities, which need to be interconnected.

Gender Image of Japan in Russia and the USSR: From the Country of Women to the Country of Samurai (from the End of the 19th Century to the Second World War)
Authors: Meshcheryakov A. N.
Published: December 2018

The word “samurai” firmly rooted in the modern Russian language, along with Fujiyama, geisha and sakura. Though obviously this was not always the case. This article traces the initial process of perceiving the concept of samurai in pre-revolutionary Russia and the Soviet Union: from the 1890s, from the first military victories of rapidly modernizing Japan, to the RussoJapanese War and further to the beginning of the Second World War. Initially endowed with features of “childishness” or “femininity,” gentleness and grace, the image of Japan is gradually becoming “masculine” and is increasingly associated with the concept of “samurai.” At first, this concept is related to such qualities as belligerence and cruelty but also loyalty to lord and “knightly” honor. Often, following Nitobe Inazo, the best qualities of the Japanese are generally traced back to the samurai tradition. Later, the Japanese appear in an increasingly caricature form, as greedy but powerless aggressors. At first, this image is not associated with the concept of “samurai” but by the 1930s fused with it. At the same time, Soviet authors criticize the “feminine” perception of Japan – they describe both the ruling exploiter and the exploited worker with “masculine” traits. The article examines the early Japanese borrowings in Russian dictionaries of foreign words, the images of the Japanese in the writings of Russian and Soviet writers, the characteristics of the country and its inhabitants in popular editions devoted to Japan as well as in propaganda texts and pictures.

Objective: To evaluate functional capacity and quality of life (QoL) of patients with chronic wounds. Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study composed of 74 patients with chronic wounds accompanied at a reference center for the treatment of complex wounds in Teresina, state of Piaui. Data were collected using the Katz index and the Cardiﬀ Wound Impact Schedule. Results: Among the domains, the “well-being” had a lower mean score and the degree of dependence obtained a signiﬁcant association with the well-being and “social life” domains. The bathing, dressing, personal hygiene and locomotion activities showed an association between the domains of QoL. Conclusion: The degree of independence in performing the basic activities of daily living, especially bathing, dressing and personal hygiene, presented higher scores between domains, indicating a better QoL. It is expected that the implantation of measures that help to preserve the functional capacity will improve the patients’ QoL.
