Authors: Pekarčíková Miriam , Trebuňa Peter , Kliment Marek , Dic Michal
Published: November 2020

We are entering a new era of human-machine interaction and it is essential to underestimate the importance of people in the digital factory. Digital factories require a new way of working, this has several implications. The composition of the workforce wants to change, and companies want to be adequately employed and retain employees accordingly. It is equally important to work with people before and during the implementation of new technologies. The paper addresses the potential that the integration of digital and human labour can offer.

Published: November 2020

The plants are primarily focused on increasing the efficiency of internal processes. The management of production plants therefore needs to know a realistic picture of their current state, risks and opportunities, so that the plant's presence on the market is not jeopardized and they are able to effectively manage internal and external processes. All this will be possible only through the implementation of new technologies and the transformation of existing factories through digitization. This combination must be based on the scheduling currently provided by interactive software scheduling systems. The article deals with the area of using a software solution for interactive evaluation and capacity sizing of production workers.

Authors:   NRU MPEI, Eremeev Aleksandr P. , Ivliev Sergey A. ,   NRU «MPEI»
Published: November 2020

The article addresses topical matters concerned with development of prospective intelligent decision making support systems (IDMSS) in analysis and diagnostics of complex problem situations taking complex vision pathologies as an example. The aim of the research is to develop an IDMSS prototype that would make it possible to automatically draw conclusions about a possible diagnosis based on the results of medical studies obtained from a special apparatus (an electroretinograph), patient examination results, and the knowledge of expert physiologists. Electroretinography is a method for assessing the functional state of the retina, which is based on recording the biopotentials arising in it during light stimulation, and the curve that images them is called the electroretinogram. The applied methods include those for constructing ontologies, neural networks, inverse development of applications, and constructing an IDMSS based on expert knowledge and human-machine interfaces. Methods for preliminary (preprocessor) processing of large data and for arranging their storage in a dedicated database and for displaying the results (diagnostic solutions) produced by the system are also considered. The novelty of the proposed approach consists in integrating several methods and in justifying the use of ontology and nonrelational model (database) in terms of expanding their scope at the early stages of the disease and improving the quality of diagnosing visual pathologies. The developed software tools of the IDMSS prototype are pointed out. The presented studies and developments have been carried out jointly by the Department of Applied Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence of the National Research University Moscow Power Engineering Institute (NRU MPEI) and the Department of Clinical Physiology of Vision of the Helmholtz Moscow Research Institute of Eye Diseases.

Nowadays, one of pressing problems in Myanmar is shortage of electric energy, which makes approximately 10% of all electric energy consumed in the country. This shortage can be partially decreased by constructing large-capacity grid-connected wind farms. The last four years have seen a general decline in the growth rates of commissioned wind farm capacities around the world; nonetheless, certain wind energy industry sectors, primarily offshore wind energy, demonstrate a steady growth. In recent years, the market of Asian countries, in particular, that of China, is one of the most rapidly growing offshore wind energy markets. An updated theoretical wind energy potential of Myanmar is given. It is shown that the highest wind intensity is observed on the western and southern coasts of Myanmar, which make approximately 8% of the country’s total area. The theoretical wind energy potential of the Andaman Sea water area near the west coast of Myanmar at heights equal to 10 and 100 m has been evaluated for the first time; eight promising sites for constructing offshore wind farms have been determined, and a model for analyzing efficient wind farms has been selected. A procedure has been developed, using which the optimal composition of a complex of several wind farms with the total capacity equal to 47.6 MW has been found. These wind farms are located at significant distances from each other in Andaman Sea areas, which are characterized by an essentially non-uniform distribution in time of wind intensities in them. Owing to this feature, it is possible to increase the energy generation by 8% and achieve a higher wind farm capacity utilization factor.
Online Business English Examinations – Challenges and Solutions
Authors: Hopârtean Ana Maria
Published: November 2020

As the world has changed beyond recognition in the past few months, so have examinations. The present paper discusses strategies to adjust business English exams so as to fit the online environment in which they now need to take place. These changes represent a challenge not only for examiners and/ or teachers, but also for students, regardless of their age and background. After some theoretical considerations, we take a more practical approach by interviewing several teachers and students in order to gauge the main concerns on both sides and suggest solutions.
Enhancing Business Students’ Cross-Cultural Skills
Authors: Ursu Oana
Published: November 2020

Considering the present-day international context, with the increasing workforce mobility and the global exchange of knowledge and best practices, most companies expect their workers to be able to communicate effectively across cultures. Thus, since cross-cultural competence in today’s multicultural globalised world is an absolute prerequisite, we argue that students – as candidates in the global job market – need to acquire not only linguistic skills, but also cross-cultural competence. Consequently, drawing on a number of theories put forward by Melanie Moll (2012), Geert Hofstede (1980, 1991), E.T. Hall (1976), or Paul Verluyten (1999), this paper will look into the cultural frameworks that account for people’s behaviour, with a view to identify the students’ perception of the cultural issues likely to occur in cross-cultural encounters. More precisely, we will explore ways in which we can build and expand the students’ intercultural awareness and cross-cultural communicative competence, with a focus on the students enrolled at the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, within the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iași, Romania.
Barrios cerrados: patrones de localización de tipologías y modelos de estructura urbana. Caso de estudio: Ciudad de Córdoba (Argentina) 1991-2010
Authors: Lemma Martín
Published: November 2020

En la Ciudad de Córdoba se verifica la materialización del modelo de fragmentación residencial que se daen varias ciudades latinoamericanas. El objetivo de este artículo es estudiar los patrones de localización de los barrios cerrados en la Ciudad de Córdoba para construir una matriz de análisis que permita discutir dichas transformaciones en el modelo de estructura urbana. La metodología de base empleada en este artículo es el análisis documental de documentos visuales, el mismo es realizado mediante herramientas de la morfología urbana. Los resultados permiten evidenciar la intensificación del modelo de fragmentación urbana entre 1990 y 2010, y su asentamiento casi exclusivo sobre los sectores de la ciudad con mayores ingresos. Lo anterior pone en disputa algunas de las nociones sobre la novedad de los modelos de estructura urbana en ciudades latinoamericanas a partir de los años 70.

Authors: Favelukes Graciela
Published: November 2020

La expansión de la ciudad durante el siglo XIX amplió notablemente la producción y circulación de planos callejeros. En ese universo visual novedoso se pusieron en juego alternativas gráficasdistintas delos procedimientos definidos enlas instituciones cartográficas estatales. En este artículo presentamos de manera exploratoria algunas de esas alternativassobre labase deplanos de Buenos Aires.Nos interesa resaltar la amplia paleta de soluciones gráficas, visuales y editoriales utilizadas para dar a conocer las formas de orientarse en la ciudad. Revisamos, en primer lugar, los formatos y marcos de producción de los mapas callejeros en relación con la cultura impresa y visual del período. En segundo lugar, observamos los métodos utilizados para trazar la silueta de la ciudad y su articulación con las tensiones inherentes entre el espacio delimitado administrativamente y el crecimiento de ocupación urbana. En tercer lugar, hacemos foco en algunas innovaciones y exploraciones visuales que ofrecen soluciones a los dilemas de la concentración de datos en espacios limitados, pero a la vez espacios de juegos figurativos que, proponemos, fueron parte del despliegue urbano.
Juego online: tratamiento de un caso de adicción a apuestas deportivas
Authors:   Universidad de Valencia, España, Marcos Marta
Published: November 2020

Background: online gambling (bets, casino games, poker, etc.) is an activity that is spreading worldwide, even in countries where it is not yet legalized. Although the situation in Latin America is very heterogeneous, it is possible that, as online gambling is developed and promoted, addiction problems arise. This has already happened in Spain since the legalization of online gambling in 2011. Thus, psychology should be developing intervention programs to face this new scenario. Goal: this paper describes the treatment protocol for a young man with sports betting addiction. Method: the treatment proposal consisted in a cognitive behavioral therapy which focused on deconditioning of gambling situations; training of skills needed to prevent relapses and overcome risky situations; information on gambling risks; change of attitude towards gambling; and promotion of a healthy lifestyle incompatible with gambling addiction. Results: both the treatment phases and the theoretical basis of the intervention proposal are described. The patient, diagnosed with a severe gambling disorder, showed improvements in the gambling disorder criteria and the Symptom Severity Scale Score. Conclusions: a treatment protocol for online gambling addiction, which is based on the principles of motivation and learning, has been developed. This protocol has demonstrated to be effective in reducing gambling behavior and promoting a new healthy lifestyle.

Innovation in public administration reform: a strategic reform through NPM, ICT, and e-governance. A comparative analysis between Lebanon and Romania
Authors: EL AMMAR Charbel , PROFIROIU Constantin Marius
Published: November 2020

In addition to the involvement of public administration (PA) as a catalyst for economic development, today we are witnessing the need to enhance innovation in PA itself, with a commitment to maximizing efficiency, effectiveness, performance, and to improve quality of public service. In PA, the emerging theory of innovation represents a combined effort between conventional organizational innovation tools such as strategic planning and modern ones such as Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and e-governance. With regard to this challenging situation, this paper seeks to present a substantial literature concerning the theory of innovation, New Public Management (NPM), ICT, and e-governance. Furthermore, using a qualitative approach based on centered semi-structured interviews, this article illustrates the current activities conducted by the Lebanese government, specifically the Office of Ministry of State for Administrative Reform (OMSAR), compared by data gathered from platforms and databases from Romanian PA such as Ministry of Communication and Information Society, OECD, DESI index, and Eurostat on ICT and e-governance at European level. The paper results reveal the significant effect of innovation in Romanian PA paving the road toward facing the challenge to achieve its digital 2020 agenda and contributing to transparency, efficiency, effectiveness, community participation, and development of public service. However, Lebanese PA should join and shake hands to strengthen the adoption of innovation in its public corridors and should cross the notion of “still born” application of ICT to a fruitful implementation contributing to strategic innovation in public services and improved PA efficiency and performance.

The current study developed and tested a model of the emergence of the attitudes towards organizationalchange and turnover intentions in the context of a foreign acquisition. Based on a sample of 172 employees surveyedfrom the acquired organization a fully mediated and a partially mediated model were compared with thesecond providing the best fit to the data. Job pressure and communication were revealed as antecedents of bothprocedural justice and trust in management. Occupational stress had a direct influence on attitudes towards acquisitionand turnover intentions, while communication influenced those variables indirectly, via the level of trust.An important issue exposed by the model was the importance of the level of trust in management of organizations.Employees need to feel that the organization is preoccupied by themselves and their interests. Thebehaviour of the management significantly influences employees’ perception of the organization that is why companiesshould pay attention to the way they communicate and implement the changes in the context of acquisitions.The relationships in the model additionally prove that the psychological aspects play a major role in theintegration process, by their significant impact on the general attitudes towards change and their consequences onorganizational behaviour.

Published: November 2020

Important investments have been made worldwide in the modernization and construction of railway lines. Plans for new constructions have also been laid out. Recently, precast concrete has been widely employed in the construction of railway bridges and viaducts. Several precast solutions have been applied, namely: I-shaped or U-shaped precast girders and uni-cellular or bi-cellular precast box girders.  Regarding the structural scheme in the longitudinal direction, either simple span or continuous decks have been used.  In this context, this work aims to contribute to the knowledge about the real performance of these structures through the development of a laboratory tests setup, for the study of this type of structure, focusing on the connection between the precast beams. The setup will be implemented at the Laboratory of Earthquake and Structural Engineering (LESE), several experimental campaigns on the cyclic behaviour of reinforced concrete elements have been carried out.

Authors: Mendes João , Coelho Luís , De Melo Pereira Carlos Manuel , Jorge Pedro
Published: November 2020

The study of sensing materials to the detection of carbon dioxide (CO2) was achieved using p-nitrophenol (pNPh) as a colorimetric indicator. The sensing material was polymerized (NPLn), functionalized with 3-triethoxysilyl propyl isocyanate (IPTES) which sensitivity was tested in the form of a membrane as is and encapsulated in hollow silica nanoparticles. The sensing membranes were tested in a closed gas system comprising very precise flow controllers to deliver different concentrations of CO2 (vs. N2). The combination of the sensing membranes with multimode optical fibers and a dual-wavelength diode (LED) allows the measurement of the CO2 through the analysis of the induced absorbance changes with a self-referenced ratiometric scheme. The analysis of the sensing materials have shown significant changes in their chemical and physical properties and the results attest these materials with a strong potential for assessing CO2 dynamics in environmental, medical, and industrial applications.

Authors: Silva Cardoso Brandão Ana Teresa , Costa Renata , Silva António Fernando , De Melo Pereira Carlos Manuel
Published: November 2020

Metal and alloys electrodeposition from aqueous electrolytes is restricted due to the narrow electrochemical window and hydrogen evolution. To overcome these disadvantages, over the past years, ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DES) based on choline chloride have been successfully applied for the electrodeposition of different metals.Tin (Sn) layers applied to automotive or decorative plating are thought of as ecological alternatives to exchange lead and nickel/chromium coatings. Over the past few years, the attention drawn by metallic alloys and composites, namely Sn alloys (nickel, indium, copper, zinc…) and Sn-carbon materials composites, has increased due to the possibility of applying these materials as anodes for lithium-ion batteries.This review will highlight the leading research regarding the electrodeposition of Sn and several alloys and carbon composites, emphasizing the morphological changes of the alloy combinations using DESs as electrolytes.

Published: November 2020

This study was conducted to determine the residual effects of chicken manure applications on nutrients in leaves and bulbs of second crop onion that grown after lettuce in greenhouse conditions. In the study, residual effects of chicken manure in 4 different doses (control, 20 t ha-1, 40 t ha-1, 60 t ha-1) and chemical fertilizers applied in the recommended amounts are investigated. Three onion varieties, called Burgaz, Snow white, Champion, were used. In the study, the lowest nutrient uptake was observed in control. However, the highest mineral content in leaves and bulbs were determined in the plots, that on average 40 t ha-1 chicken manure was applied to. In terms of leaf nutrient content, when the varieties were compared to each other, Ca, Mg, and Cu contents were found to be the highest in the Burgaz variety. Phosphorus, Zn, Mn contents were analyzed to be the highest in Snow white while N values determined maximum in Champion. The Champion variety contained higher nutrient values in bulbs.
1855-2020 Döneminde Türkiye’de Büyükşehir Belediye Yönetiminin Gelişimi
Authors: OKTAY Tarkan
Published: November 2020

Türkiye’de büyük ölçekli şehirlerin farklı bir belediye modeli ile yönetilmesi konusundaki arayış ve uygulamalar Osmanlı dönemine kadar gitmektedir. Osmanlı’da İstanbul’da uygulanan Şehremaneti belediye modeli, Cumhuriyet döneminde Ankara ile devam etti. 1950’den sonra kentleşmenin hızlanması sonucunda büyük şehirlerin daha da büyümesi yanında yeni büyük şehirlerin de ortaya çıktığı görülmektedir. 1960-1980 döneminde büyük şehirlerin yönetimi konusunda sonuca ulaşamayan önemli girişimler oldu. Bu çabalar anayasal sınırlılıklar nedeniyle daha çok belediye birliği modeli üzerinde yoğunlaştı. İki kademeli büyükşehir belediye modelinin uygulanması ancak 1984’de mümkün olabildi. 2000’li yıllardaki kamu yönetimi reformları kapsamında büyükşehir belediye modeli de çok yönlü geliştirildi. 2000-2014 döneminde büyükşehir belediyeleri konusunda coğrafi yetki alanının genişlemesi ve küçük ölçekli yerel yönetimlerin azaltılması düzenlemeleri öne çıkmaktadır. Bu süreç sonunda büyükşehir modeli bir il yerel yönetim modeli haline dönüştü. Bu çalışmada Türkiye’deki büyükşehirlerin yönetimi ile ilgili girişim ve uygulama modelleri Osmanlı’dan günümüze dönemler çerçevesinde analiz edilmektedir.
Calculation of meteorological water balance in Iraq
Authors:   Petroleum Technology Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq, Al-Sudani Hussein Ilaibi Zamil
Published: November 2020

The hydrology section is divided into two main components, surface and groundwater. One of the most important outcomes in the water balance equation for any natural area or water body is Evapotranspiration and it is also a crucial component of the hydrologic cycle. Prediction of monthly evapotranspiration can be obtained depending on observed monthly average temperatures at a meteorological station in each year. Calculating of water balance in Iraq depending on meteorological data and Thornthwaite method was the aim of this research. Results of corrected potential evapotranspiration (PEc) obtained from applying Thornthwaite formula were compared with annual and monthly rainfall in thirty two meteorological station in order to estimate actual evapotranspiration (AE). The results showed that the annual summation of rainfall increased from south west towards north east according to the increasing ratio of rainfall due to the impact of Mediterranean climate condition on Iraq. Actual evapotranspiration depends directly on water excess during calculating water balance. Water surplus contour map indicates increased values towards north-east direction of Iraq, where water surplus depends directly on both rainfall and actual evapotranspiration.

Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar através de uma revisão sobre a eficácia clínica e a segurança do tratamento intervencionista dos bloqueios anestésicos peridurais no controle da dor crônica. A dor crônica é um sintoma recorrente e de difícil controle em diversas entidades clínicas, com mecanismos fisiopatológicos complexos e que gera repercussões sociais, físicas e mentais importantes para a população, além de implicar altos custos tanto para os sistemas de saúde, quanto para a economia. Dentre as formas de intervenção e controle desse sintoma, o bloqueio peridural ou epidural apresenta-se como uma alternativa à procedimentos cirúrgicos e sua indicação está relacionada, principalmente, à resistência de tratamentos convencionais, como altas doses de opióides orais, transdérmicos ou sistêmicos. Assim, os resultados dessa revisão bibliográfica apontam a intervenção clínica de interrupção de estímulos nociceptivos por via peridural como método seguro, de bom custo-efetivo e com efeito analgésico satisfatório, o que implica uma opção considerável e eficaz para o controle da dor crônica. Por esse motivo, justifica-se a necessidade de continuidade de estudos científicos da técnica, visando sua evolução, redução dos custos e, sobretudo, aumento da eficácia clínica terapêutica.

Published: November 2020

A lesão hepática traumática é prevalente e possui altas taxas de morbimortalidade. A conduta terapêutica varia de acordo com as características da lesão e com os parâmetros clínicos do paciente. As lesões hepáticas são classificadas em seis graus de gravidade, que auxiliam na decisão terapêutica. Lesões hepáticas de baixo grau (graus I, II e III) são frequentemente tratadas com sucesso por manejo não cirúrgico. Esse artigo buscou relatar o caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, 52 anos, com histórico de trauma abdominal contuso após acidente automobilístico, admitido no pronto-socorro inicialmente estável. Evoluiu após algumas horas, entretanto, com instabilidade hemodinâmica, sendo indicada laparotomia de emergência. Paciente apresentava lesão hepática grau II, que, contudo, é manejada normalmente com tratamento não operatório. O tratamento cirúrgico evoluiu com boa recuperação do paciente, que teve alta hospitalar após doze dias. É essencial, portanto, o acompanhamento rigoroso da evolução do paciente com trauma hepático a fim de optar pela melhor conduta terapêutica.

Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão narrativa comparando os desfechos, tais como impactos biopsicológicos e sobrevida, em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de amputação ou de salvamentos de membros. Revisão bibliográfica: O osteossarcoma é uma neoplasia maligna comum em crianças e adolescentes, localizando-se, principalmente, nas extremidades de ossos longos como a tíbia e o fêmur. Dos diversos tratamentos existentes, a amputação e a salvação do membro carecem de estudos comparando seus desfechos, impactos físicos e psicológicos e suas sobrevidas. Esses estudos conseguiriam auxiliar os médicos na escolha do tratamento mais adequado e com melhores resultados para cada paciente. Considerações finais: O salvamento do membro apresenta melhor sobrevida sem aumentar o risco de recorrência local. No entanto, os pacientes que amputaram o membro obtiveram um ganho em bem-estar físico e psicológico quando comparados aos pacientes que salvaram o membro. Logo, este estudo afirma a necessidade de individualização do tratamento em cada caso, considerando os riscos, os benefícios e os impactos para cada paciente.

Métodos: Estudo observacional, transversal, quantitativo, composto por 48 voluntários de ambos os sexos, idade de 8 a 12 anos, divididos em Grupo 1 (G1; eutróficos) e Grupo 2 (G2; obesos). Foram coletados dados antropométricos, espirométricos e a resposta dos questionários de qualidade de vida Pediatric Quality of Life Iventory (PedsQL™) child report e Pediatric Quality of Life Iventory (PedsQL™) parents report for child. Os dados estatísticos descritivos e inferenciais foram analisados com auxílio do software BioEstat versão 5.3 considerando p £ 0,05. Resultados: A amostra, com média de idade de 10,42 (±1,28) anos, sendo 60,41% do sexo masculino, não apontou significância estatística para os domínios do questionário de QV entre G1 e G2, assim como para o perfil espirométrico. Porém, observou-se diferença significativa para os escores em quatro domínios quanto a percepção dos pais e dos seus filhos para o PedsQL4.0 Conclusão: Não houve correlação direta entre o IMC, dados espirométricos e a qualidade de vida dos voluntários estudados.
Modified technique of Indirect arthroscopic distal clavicle resection
Authors: Gupta Siddhartha , Manocha Ravinder Kant , Mishra Kritesh
Published: November 2020

Distal clavicle resection is an accepted surgical treatment option for unremitting acromioclavicular joint arthritis. Indirect arthroscopic approach is preferred when an additional subacromial or glenohumeral diagnostic or therapeutic procedure is contemplated. However, concomitant subacromial decompression and acromial overhang removal, which is integral to indirect approach vis-a-vis direct approach, have additional risks of stiffness and acromial fracture. A modification in indirect approach technique is demonstrated which not only reduces these risks but also improves accuracy and safety of distal clavicle resection. The pros and cons are discussed in detail with reference to relevant literature.

Published: November 2020

The use of (benzo)pyrylium salts as versatile synthetic building blocks has become an attractive platform for the preparation of valuable heterocyclic compounds. Besides other numerous direct applications of (benzo)pyryliums, the intrinsic electrophilic nature of these species or the
dipole character of the related oxidopyrylium derivatives have been exploited towards the development of enantioselective transformations such as nucleophilic dearomatization and cycloaddition reactions. This review aims at providing an overview on the relevant catalytic enantioselective methodologies
developed in the past years, which are presented considering the involved metal- and/or organic catalytic system, as well as the type of reaction.
N-Heterocyclic Carbene Triazolium Salts Containing Brominated Aromatic Motifs: Features and Synthetic Protocol
Authors: Raed Anas Abo , Dhayalan Vasudevan , Barkai Shahar , Milo Anat
Published: November 2020

In this work, we provide a brief overview of the role of N-aryl substituents on triazolium N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis. This synopsis provides context for the disclosed synthetic protocol for new chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) triazolium salts with
brominated aromatic motifs. Incorporating brominated aryl rings into NHC structures is challenging, probably due to the substantial steric and electronic influence these substituents exert throughout the synthetic protocol. However, these exact characteristics make it an interesting N-aryl
substituent, because the electronic and steric diversity it offers could find broad use in organometallic- and organo-catalysis. Following the synthetic reaction by NMR guided the extensive modification of a known protocol to enable the preparation of these challenging NHC pre-catalysts.

Published: November 2020

Kaolin clay material was loaded with potassium carbonate by impregnation method as a novel effective and economical heterogeneous catalyst for biodiesel production of sunflower oil via the transesterification reaction. The structural and chemical properties of the produced catalysts were analyzed by several characterization tests including the BET-BJH, XRD, SEM and FTIR. Influence of the K2CO3 impregnation level was examined by comparing the catalytic activity of different produced catalysts. To expand the efficiency of transesterification reaction, parameters of reaction were optimized including; the molar ratio between methanol and oil, concentration of catalyst, and duration of the reaction. The highest yield of biodiesel over the K2CO3/kaolin catalyst was around 95.3 ± 1.2%. It was achieved using kaolin supports impregnated with 20 wt.% of K2CO3. The optimum reaction conditions were found to be catalyst reactor loading of 5 wt.%, reaction temperature of 65 °C, methanol: oil molar ratio of 6:1 and reaction duration time of 4 h.
Theoretical Assessment of Hinge-Type Models for Electron Donors in Reaction Centers of Photosystems I and II as Well as of Purple Bacteria
Authors: Artiukhin Denis , Eschenbach Patrick , Matysik Jörg , Neugebauer Johannes
Published: November 2020

Hinge-type molecular models for electron donors in reaction centers of Photosystem I, II, and purple bacteria were investigated using a two-state computational approach based on Frozen-Density Embedding. This methodology, dubbed FDE-diab, is known to avoid consequences of the self-interaction error as far as intermolecular phenomena are concerned, which allows to predict qualitatively correct spin densities for large bio-molecular systems. The calculated spin density distributions are in a good agreement with available experimental results and demonstrated a very high sensitivity to changes in relative orientiation of co-factors and amino-acid protonation states. This allows to validate the previously proposed hinge-type models and make predictions on protonation states of axial histidine molecules. Contrary to the reaction centers in Photosystem I and purple bacteria, the axial histidines from Photosystem II were found to be deprotonated. This fact might shed some light on remarkable properties of Photosystem II reaction centers.

The Fujiwara-Moritani reaction has had a profound contribution in the emergence of contemporary C−H activation protocols. Despite the applicability of the traditional approach in different fields, the associated reactivity and regioselectivity issues had rendered it redundant. The revival of this exemplary reaction requires the development of a mechanistic paradigm that would have simultaneous control on both the reactivity and regioselectivity. Often high thermal energy required to promote olefination leads to multiple site functionalization. To this aim we established a photoredox catalytic system constituting a merger of palladium/organo-photocatalyst that forges oxidative olefination in an explicit regioselective fashion of diverse arenes and heteroarenes. Visible light plays a significant role in executing ‘regio-resolved’ Fuijiwara-Moritani reaction without the requirement of silver salts and thermal energy. The catalytic system is also amenable towards proximal and distal olefination aided by respective directing groups (DGs), which entails the versatility of the protocol in engaging the entire spectrum of C(sp2)−H olefination. Furthermore, streamlining the synthesis of natural products, chiral molecules, drugs and diversification through late-stage functionalization’s underscore the importance of this sustainable protocol. The photoinduced attainment of this regioselective transformation is mechanistically established through control reactions, kinetic studies and theoretical calculations.
El espectáculo, la cámara, la autoría y la vigilancia en el found footage
Authors: Aguilar Alcalá Sergio José
Published: November 2020

Se discuten las características de las películas conocidas como found footage a través de la ontología de la cámara, la distinción entre ficción y no ficción, la distinción entre filmación y película, y entre un autor explícito y una agencia autoral de la enunciación. Para ello serán esenciales los aportes de Edward Branigan y Carl Plantinga. Se analizan películas a partir de estos ejes, donde se trata de entender el modo singular en que cada filme articula el problema universal del género: la brecha entre el enunciado y la enunciación. Esta grieta irreductible, del modo en que la plantea el psicoanálisis, es necesaria para comprender el tipo de verdad que puede encontrarse en el found footage.
Cine de apropiación en los albores de la era digital: reflexiones a partir de la obra de Harun Farocki
Authors: Flores Fernández Camila
Published: November 2020

La obra de Harun Farocki (1944-2014) se ha extendido por más de cinco décadas, y ha tratado de manera primordial la imagen, sus significados, su relación con la ideología de masas, y las posibilidades y límites de su automatización y mecanización en la era digital. Mediante la técnica de found footage, Farocki ha establecido a lo largo de su trayectoria diferentes estrategias analíticas que le han permitido, a través de sus obras fílmicas, proponer una exhaustiva revisión y crítica a la imagen y sus implicaciones. En este ensayo se busca proponer reflexiones, a partir de la obra de Farocki, en torno a las políticas de la imagen, la relación con el autor / productor y su función en las esferas ideológicas, políticas y sociales.
