A Head Loss Pressure Boundary Condition for Hydraulic Systems
Authors: Fahlbeck Jonathan , Nilsson Håkan , Salehi Saeed
Published: April 2022

Despite the increase in computational power of HPC clusters, it is in most cases not possible to include the entire hydraulic system when doing detailed numerical studies of the flow in one of the components in the system. The numerical models are still most often constrained to a small part of the system and the boundary conditions may in many cases be difficult to specify. The headLossPressure boundary condition is developed in the present work for the OpenFOAM open-source CFD code to include the main effects caused by a large hydraulic system onto a component in the system. The main motivation is to provide a boundary condition for hydraulic systems where known properties are specified by the user and unknown properties are calculated. This paper is a guide to the developed headLossPressure boundary condition. It is based on the extended Bernoulli equation to calculate the kinematic pressure on the patch. An arbitrary number of minor and friction losses are considered to describe the system in terms of head losses. The boundary condition also provides the opportunity to specify the head in relation to a reference elevation. System changes during operations are modelled through Function1 variables, which enables time-varying inputs. The developments are validated against experimental test data, where the varying head between two free surfaces and a valve closing and opening sequence are modelled with the boundary condition. The main effects of the system are well captured by the headLossPressure boundary condition. It is thus a useful and trustworthy boundary condition for incompressible hydraulic system simulations.

Bayesian assessment of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) and halon banks suggest large reservoirs still present in old equipment
Authors: Lickley Megan Jeramaz , Daniel John S. , Fleming Eric L. , Reimann Stefan , Solomon Susan
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Halocarbons contained in equipment such as air conditioners, fire extinguishers, and foams continue to be emitted after production has ceased. These ‘banks’ within equipment and applications are thus potential sources of future emissions, and must be carefully accounted for in order to evaluate ongoing compliance with the Montreal Protocol. Here, we build on a probabilistic Bayesian model, previously developed to quantify CFC-11, 12 and 113 banks and their emissions. We extend this model to the suite of the major banked chemicals regulated under the Montreal Protocol (HCFC-22, HCFC-141b, and HCFC-142b, halon-1211, and halon-1301, and CFC-114 and CFC-115) along with CFC-11, 12 and 113 in order to quantify a fuller range of ozone-depleting substance banks by chemical and equipment type. We show that if atmospheric lifetime and prior assumptions are accurate, banks are very likely larger than previous international assessments suggest, and that production has been very likely higher than reported. We identify that banks of greatest climate-relevance, as determined by global warming potential weighting, are largely concentrated in CFC-11 foams and CFC-12 and HCFC-22 non-hermetic refrigeration. Halons, CFC-11, and 12 banks dominate the banks weighted by ozone depletion potential. Thus, we identify and quantify the uncertainties in substantial banks whose future emissions will contribute to future global warming and delay ozone hole recovery if left unrecovered.
Characterization of soot produced by the mini inverted soot generator with an atmospheric simulation chamber

Published: April 2022

Abstract. The performance of a mini inverted soot generator (MISG) has been investigated at ChAMBRe (Chamber for Aerosol Modelling and Bio-aerosol Research) by studying the properties of soot particles generated by ethylene and propane combustion. This work deepens and expands the existing characterization of the MISG, which also exploits an atmospheric simulation chamber (ASC). Different from previous works, MISG performance has been also tested at different fuel flows and higher global equivalence ratios. MISG exhausts were investigated after their injection inside the atmospheric
simulation chamber, which is another novelty of this work. Starting from an extensive classification of combustion conditions and resulting flame shapes, the MISG exhaust was characterized in terms of concentration of emitted particles and gases, particle size distribution, and optical properties. Soot particles were also collected on quartz fibre filters and
then analysed by optical and thermal–optical techniques to measure the spectral dependence of the absorption coefficient babs​​​​​​​ and their composition in terms of elemental carbon and organic carbon (EC and OC). Significant differences could be observed when the MISG was fuelled with ethylene and propane in terms of particle size. In particular, the production of super-micrometric aggregates was observed for ethylene combustion. With equal combustion conditions, ethylene produced a higher number concentration of particles and smaller mode diameters. Soot particles produced by propane combustion resulted in higher EC : TC (total carbon) ratios and they were more light absorbing than particles generated by ethylene combustion. Values of the mass absorption cross section (MAC) and of the Ångström absorption exponent (AAE) turned out to be compatible with the literature, even if there were some specific differences. The comprehensive characterization of the MISG soot particles is an important piece of information to design and perform experiments in atmospheric simulation chambers. Particles with well-known
properties can be used, for example, to investigate the possible interactions between soot and other atmospheric pollutants, the effects of meteorological variables on soot properties, and the oxidative and toxicological potential of soot particles.
Subsurface oxygen maximum in oligotrophic marine ecosystems: mapping the interaction between physical and biogeochemical processes
Authors: Di Biagio Valeria , Salon Stefano , Feudale Laura , Cossarini Gianpiero
Published: April 2022

Abstract. The subsurface oxygen maximum (SOM) is observed in oligotrophic oceans and is associated with different physical and biological processes. This study characterises the SOM in the Mediterranean Sea at the basin scale and investigates its driving mechanisms by analysing the output of the 1/24° resolution biogeochemical reanalysis provided by the Copernicus Marine Service for the 1999–2019 time period. We validated the model-derived oxygen concentration in the epipelagic layer at different spatial and temporal scales, including a novel process validation associated with community production and respiration. Moreover, using Biogeochemical-Argo (BGC-Argo) float observations, we estimated the model uncertainty in reproducing the SOM concentration and depth in summer (13 mmol m-3 and 13 m, respectively). The western and eastern Mediterranean Sea depict different SOM signatures in summer, with higher oxygen values and shallower depths in the western Mediterranean. The concentrations and depths (in the ranges of 230–250 mmol m-3 and 30–100 m, respectively) are in agreement with the estimations from the literature and show mesoscale variability patterns. The western Mediterranean also shows a stronger biological activity, specifically oxygen production and consumption, along the whole epipelagic layer and higher oxygen concentrations at the surface throughout the year, but heavy undersaturated waters are associated with winter deep convection in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. A one-year analysis conducted on selected areas that are representative of the heterogeneity of summer SOM highlighted that the SOM can actually be sustained by biological production (as in northwestern Mediterranean areas), or it can be a residual of the confinement of spring production (as in the central Ionian area), and vertical motions influence its depth (as in the Levantine subduction area).
Controls of intermodel uncertainty in land carbon sink projections

Published: April 2022

Abstract. Over the last decades, land ecosystems removed from the atmosphere approximately one third of anthropogenic carbon emissions, highlighting the importance of the evolution of the land carbon sink for projected climate change. Nevertheless, the latest cumulative land carbon sink projections from eleven Earth system models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) show large differences, even for a policy-relevant scenario with mean global warming by the end of the century below 2 °C relative to preindustrial conditions. We hypothesize that this intermodel uncertainty originates from model differences in the sensitivities of net biome production (NBP) to (i) atmospheric CO2 concentration, (ii) air temperature and (iii) soil moisture, as well as model differences in average conditions of (iv) air temperature and (v) soil moisture. Using multiple linear regression and a resampling technique, we quantify the individual contributions of these five terms for explaining the cumulative NBP anomaly of each model relative to the multi-model mean. Results indicate a primary role of the response of NBP to interannual temperature and soil moisture variability, followed by the sensitivity to CO2, and lastly by the average climate conditions, which also show sizeable contributions. We find that the sensitivities of NBP to temperature and soil moisture, particularly in the tropics, dominantly explain the deviations from the ensemble mean of the two models with the lowest carbon sink (ACCESS-ESM1-5 and UKESM1-0-LL) and of the two models with the highest sink (CESM2 and NorESM2-LM). Overall, this study advances our understanding of why land carbon sink projections from Earth system models differ globally and across regions, which can guide efforts to reduce the underlying uncertainties.

Abstract. While the formation and evolution of nitrate in airborne particles are extensively investigated, little is known about the processing of nitrate in clouds. Here we present a detailed investigation on the in-cloud formation of nitrate, based on the size-resolved mixing state of nitrate in the individual cloud residual and cloud-free particles obtained by single particle mass spectrometry, and also the mass concentrations of nitrate in the cloud water and PM2.5 at a mountain site (1690 m a.s.l.) in southern China. The results show a significant enhancement of nitrate mass fraction and relative intensity of nitrate in cloud water and the cloud residual particles, respectively, reflecting a critical role of in-cloud processing in the formation of nitrate. We first exclude the gas phase scavenging of HNO3 and the facilitated activation of nitrate-containing particles as the major contribution for the enhanced nitrate, according to the size distribution of nitrate in individual particles. Based on regression analysis and theoretical calculations, we then reveal a critical role of in-cloud formation of nitrate via N2O5 hydrolysis, even during the daytime, attributed to the diminished light in clouds. Nitrate is highly related (R2 = ~0.6) to the variation of [NOx][O3], temperature and droplet surface area in clouds. Accounting for droplet surface area greatly enhances the predictability of the observed nitrate compared with using [NOx][O3] and temperature. The substantial contribution of N2O5 hydrolysis to nitrate in clouds during the daytime was reproduced by a multiphase chemical box model. Assuming that the photolysis rate is 30 % of the default setting, the overall contribution of N2O5 hydrolysis pathway to nitrate formation increases by ~20 % in clouds. Given that N2O5 hydrolysis acts as a major sink of NOx in the atmosphere, further model updates would improve our understanding about the processes contributing to nitrate production in cloud and the cycling of odd nitrogen.

Abstract. Quantitative reconstructions of past land cover are
necessary to determine the processes involved in climate–human–land-cover
interactions. We present the first temporally continuous and most spatially
extensive pollen-based land-cover reconstruction for Europe over the
Holocene (last 11 700 cal yr BP). We describe how vegetation cover has been
quantified from pollen records at a 1∘ × 1∘ spatial scale
using the “Regional Estimates of VEgetation Abundance from Large Sites”
(REVEALS) model. REVEALS calculates estimates of past regional vegetation
cover in proportions or percentages. REVEALS has been applied to 1128 pollen
records across Europe and part of the eastern Mediterranean–Black
Sea–Caspian corridor (30–75∘ N, 25∘ W–50∘ E) to reconstruct the percentage cover of 31 plant taxa
assigned to 12 plant functional types (PFTs) and 3 land-cover types (LCTs).
A new synthesis of relative pollen productivities (RPPs) for European plant
taxa was performed for this reconstruction. It includes multiple RPP values
(≥2 values) for 39 taxa and single values for 15 taxa (total of 54
taxa). To illustrate this, we present distribution maps for five taxa
(Calluna vulgaris, Cerealia type (t)., Picea abies, deciduous Quercus t. and evergreen Quercus t.) and three land-cover types (open
land, OL; evergreen trees, ETs; and summer-green trees, STs) for eight selected
time windows. The reliability of the REVEALS reconstructions and issues
related to the interpretation of the results in terms of landscape openness
and human-induced vegetation change are discussed. This is followed by a
review of the current use of this reconstruction and its future potential
utility and development. REVEALS data quality are primarily determined by
pollen count data (pollen count and sample, pollen identification, and
chronology) and site type and number (lake or bog, large or small, one site vs. multiple sites) used for REVEALS analysis (for each grid cell). A large
number of sites with high-quality pollen count data will produce more
reliable land-cover estimates with lower standard errors compared to a low
number of sites with lower-quality pollen count data. The REVEALS data

Published: April 2022

Abstract. In March 2013, the Springtime Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiment (STABLE) was carried out in the Fram Strait region and over Svalbard to investigate atmospheric convection and boundary layer modifications due to interactions between sea ice, the atmosphere, and open water. A major goal was the observation of marine cold-air outbreaks (MCAOs), which are typically characterised by the transport of very cold air masses from the ice-covered ocean over a relatively warm water surface and which often affect local and regional weather conditions. During STABLE, MCAOs were observed on 4 d within a period displaying a strongly northward-shifted sea ice edge north of Svalbard and, thus, with an unusually large Whaler's Bay polynya. The observations mainly consisted of in situ measurements from airborne instruments and of measurements by dropsondes. Here, we present the corresponding data set from a total of 15 aircraft vertical profiles and 22 dropsonde releases. Besides an overview of the flight patterns and instrumentation, we provide a detailed presentation of the individual quality-processing mechanisms, which ensure that the data can be used, for example, for model validation. Moreover, we discuss the effects of the individual quality-processing mechanisms, and we briefly present the main characteristics of the MCAOs based on the quality-controlled data. All 37 data series are published on the World Data Center PANGAEA (Lüpkes et al., 2021a, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.936635).
HORAYZON v1.1: An efficient and flexible ray-tracing algorithm to compute horizon and sky view factor
Authors: Steger Christian R. , Steger Benjamin , Schär Christoph
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Terrain parameters like topographic horizon and sky view factor (SVF) are used in numerous fields and applications. In atmospheric and climate modelling, such parameters are utilized to parameterise the effect of terrain geometry on radiation exchanges between the surface and the atmosphere. Ideally, these parameters are derived from a high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM), because inferring them from coarser elevation data induces a smoothing effect. Computing topographic horizon with conventional algorithms is however slow, because large amounts of non-local terrain data have to be processes. We propose a new and more efficient method, which is based on a high-performance ray tracing library. By applying terrain simplification to remote topography, this allows the application of the new algorithms also with very high-resolution (< 5 m) DEM data, which otherwise would induce an excessive memory footprint. The topographic horizon algorithm is accompanied by a SVF algorithm, which was verified to work accurately for all terrain – even very steep and complex one. We compare the computational performance and accuracy of the new horizon algorithm with two reference methods from literature and illustrate its benefits. Finally, we illustrate how sub-grid SVF values can be efficiently computed with the newly derived horizon algorithm for a wide range of target grid resolutions (1–25 km).
Exploring the utility of social media data for urban flood impact assessment in data scarce cities
Authors: Guo Kaihua , Guan Mingfu , Yan Haochen , Chan Faith Ka Shun
Published: April 2022

Abstract. The growing amount of social media data is a valuable and rapidly available information source to inform flood response and recovery. In this study, a workflow framework is developed to assess urban flood impacts by extracting and analysing social media data, as well as identifying the intensive public response areas, using the case of 2020 China Chengdu rainstorm-induced flooding. A crawler-algorithm is applied to extract and filter the social media data from the commonly used social platforms, namely Weibo (static data) and Tiktok (dynamic data). Based on the spatiotemporal analysis and the identified 232 flood sites with geological locations, the study shows that, social media activities and precipitation have a significant positive correlation temporally. The temporal evolution analysis of social media topics reveals the process of flooding enabling quickly to determine the severely affected areas. Spatially, social media data can give spatial flood information and social media activities are generally associated with the demographical distribution of users. Based on a flood simulation, the framework can generate reliable data source of urban flooding from social media, which can enhance flood risk modelling with the aid of hydrodynamic model. This study demonstrates the utility of social media data for urban flood assessment.
Effects of environmental factors on the influence of tillage conversion on saturated soil hydraulic conductivity obtained with different methodologies: a global meta-analysis
Authors: Liao Kaihua , Feng Juan , Lai Xiaoming , Zhu Qing
Published: April 2022

Abstract. The saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a key
soil hydraulic property governing agricultural production. However, the influence of the conversion from the conventional tillage (CT) to conservation tillage (CS; including no tillage, NT, and reduced tillage, RT) on the Ksat of soils is not well understood and still debated. In this study, we applied a global meta-analysis method to synthesize 227 paired
observations for soil Ksat from 69 published studies and investigated factors influencing the effects of conversion to CS on Ksat. Results showed that soil layer, conservation tillage type, soil texture type, and cropping system management did not have significant effects on the influence of conversion to CS on Ksat. When the Ksat was measured by the rainfall simulator, the conversion to CS significantly (p<0.05) increased the
surface and subsurface soil Ksat by 41.7 % and 36.9 %, respectively. In addition, the subsurface Ksat also tended to increase under CS practices when the Ksat was measured by a tension disc infiltrometer. However, when the Ksat was measured by a hood infiltrometer, ring infiltrometer, constant/falling head, and Guelph permeameter, the conversion to CS had no significant effects on the Ksat. It is observed that, when the conversion period was less than 15 years, the Ksat under CS showed a greater increase for a longer conversion period. Climatic and topographic factors, including the mean annual temperature (MAT) and the mean annual precipitation (MAP), were statistically related to the responses of Ksat to tillage conversion at the global scale. Quadratic polynomials can describe the relationships between them. These findings suggested that quantifying the effects of tillage conversion on soil Ksat needed to
consider experimental conditions, especially the measurement technique and conversion period.
A new Stefan equation to characterize the evolution of thermokarst lake and talik geometry

Published: April 2022

Abstract. Thermokarst lake dynamics, which play an essential role in carbon release
due to permafrost thaw, are affected by various geomorphological processes.
In this study, we derive a three-dimensional (3D) Stefan equation to
characterize talik geometry under a hypothetical thermokarst lake in the
continuous permafrost region. Using the Euler equation in the calculus of
variations, the lower bounds of the talik were determined as an extremum of
the functional describing the phase boundary area with a fixed total talik
volume. We demonstrate that the semi-ellipsoid geometry of the talik is
optimal for minimizing the total permafrost thaw under the lake for a given
annual heat supply. The model predicting ellipsoidal talik geometry was
compared to talik thickness observations using transient electromagnetic
(TEM) soundings in Peatball Lake on the Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) of
northern Alaska. The depth : width ratio of the elliptical sub-lake talik can
characterize the energy flux anisotropy in the permafrost, although the lake
bathymetry cross section may not be elliptic due to the presence of
near-surface ice-rich permafrost. This theory suggests that talik
development deepens lakes and results in more uniform horizontal lake
expansion around the perimeter of the lakes, while wind-induced waves and
currents are likely responsible for the elongation and orientation of
shallow thermokarst lakes without taliks in certain regions such as the ACP
of northern Alaska.
„Przez wszystko do mnie przemawiałeś – Panie!” Jak Cyprian Kamil Norwid (1821–1883) pomaga nam rozumieć współczesne „znaki czasu”?
Authors: Bielak Grzegorz
Published: April 2022

The article describes the characteristic features of Cyprian Kamil Norwid’s spirituality on the basis of selected Letters from this writer. Norwid is a unique figure of the 19th century for Polish history and culture. The example of his spiritual life can inspire contemporary Christians. The discussed Letters indicate Norwid’s close relationship with God, his trust in Providence in life’s hardships and adversities and the conviction with which he proclaimed Christ and His Gospel. Norwid’s spiritual example helps us to properly read the contemporary „signs of the times”. Especially during the crisis caused, among others, by the coronavirus pandemic and progressive secularization, Norwid’s thoughts are also relevant today.

DERVISH LODGES AND CONVENTS IN THE HISTORY OF SOCIAL SERVICES
Authors: YÜCER Hür Mahmut
Published: April 2022

Social services can trace its origin back to the idea of human goodwill and charity. Therefore, confining our study ofthis phenomenon to the modern era, and consequently ignoring its roots, would be a great error. However, forcenturies, charitable organizations of various sizes have been officially established. As a result of the incrediblediversity of such organizations in Islamic societies, conducting research in this field is also an easier task. There aremany examples of this institutional variety. For instance, the most notable examples would include the akhilik(fraternity) organisation, caravansary, almshouse, guilds, hospitals, charitable institutions, workhouses, Ottomanorphanages.Historically dervish lodges were mistakenly considered to be solely involved in mystic and esoteric activities.However, this Islamic religious order was fundamentally devoted to holy living through worldly deeds. Thisoriginates from the Sufi interpretation of religion, which revolved around serving; the creator, the lordly one trueGod, and his creations. As a result, the Sufis established Islamic monasteries (ribats), dervish lodge centres (hankah),small dervish lodges (zaviye), inns and bathhouses on deserted roads and mountain bases in order to provide freeaccommodation, to serve food and drink for cross border travellers and passers-by and generally to meet the needsof people. During the classical Ottoman period, they served as secondary cultural institutions, left vacant by thegovernment in city centres. They served as a meeting point between the political authorities and the people.Dervish lodges were sometimes a shelter for those seeking refuge from a state. We can also presume that theyreceived occupational therapy in the modern sense. This included training under the watchful eyes of the dhikr andcontemplation, for the purpose of serving humanity. As a result of their commitment to profession, diligence andthe use of logo therapy, they succeded in producing one of the most organised and effective historical instances ofsocial work. This study seeks to elucidate the historical role of dervish lodges in the provision of protective socialassistances, social aid and support from a social services stand point.
Machine learning-based Prediction of Cotton farming using ARIMA Model
Authors: Malik Saima , Umar Naveed
Published: April 2022

Disease detection in agriculture is critical in severe weather conditions. Keeping an eye on many cotton fields is challenging for farmers. Deep learning and image processing identify agricultural ailments before they spread and further damage. Cotton crop with the most important correlation quantities among pest disease existence are inspected by predictors. In this study, transfer learning methods for analysis are checked. The machine learning approach developed accurately distinguishes healthy and unhealthy plants. As a result, the proposed model may be used to monitor a wide range of areas for more rapid analysis and action, leading to increased productivity. It is possible to anticipate a timeline using ARIMA. A long-term study reveals that the value swipes widely during short and long periods due to random influences. It is also inspected how the recommended approach is affected by using several cotton crop characteristics. In addition to separating green crops from other crops in the field, this procedure can also separate harvests such as Cotton from other crops.

Se consideró necesario revisar los planteamientos metodológicos y conceptuales utilizados hasta el momento ya que estos datan desde hace más de cuatro décadas e inciden directamente en la representación cartográfica del clima ambiental la cual es base indispensable en la delimitación de los suelos a la escala semidetallada. A 250 años del nacimiento de Francisco José de Caldas se presentó a la sociedad académica la división de zonas morfoclimáticas que permitieron el ajuste de los límites altitudinales de los pisos térmicos para Colombia.

Siguiendo los principios de zonificación climática basada en la condición de humedad según Holdridge, se aplicó un procedimiento que mejora los límites de las unidades climáticas que emplean los levantamientos de suelos que adelanta la Subdirección de Agrología del Instituto Geográfico Agustín Codazzi - IGAC. Dicha capa de zonificación climática se diseñó a la escala semidetallada y fue realizada mediante procesos geomáticos; para su realización se aplicó un método cuantitativo basado en la normal climatológica 1980 – 2010.

El objetivo de la presente investigación es aplicar esos conocimientos para proponer el ajuste de la frontera agrícola en 69 municipios colombianos y mostrar su utilidad en la implementación de los servicios ecosistémicos como políticas públicas.

Authors: Silva Nara Gabrielle de Sousa , Queiroz Pereira Alexandre
Published: April 2022

Em uma lógica de ocupação marcada pela convergência dos capitais imobiliário e turístico, o litoral metropolitano nordestino tem sido espaço estratégico no século XXI para a implantação de mega empreendimentos turístico imobiliários, dos quais destacamos os Complexos Turísticos Imobiliários - CTIs. Com o estudo de caso do Complexo Vila Galé Cumbuco, localizado no município de Caucaia, região metropolitana de Fortaleza, Ceará, buscamos analisar as práticas espaciais dos agentes produtores do espaço hegemônicos envolvidas na gestão do território, notadamente os empreendedores de capital turístico e imobiliário, o Estado e os proprietários fundiários. Apoiada em pesquisa bibliográfica e documental em Diários Oficiais do estado e município, matérias jornalísticas e legislações, o artigo argumenta que as práticas de seletividade, antecipação e fragmentação espacial são substanciais na transformação dos espaços litorâneo-metropolitanos, e suas leituras elucidam o conteúdo espacial de ações decisivas que não se limitam ao caráter administrativo/empresarial.

Authors: Abu-Nawareg Manar , Elbanna Khaled , Abouelseoud Hanan
Published: April 2022

Purpose: To examine the fracture resistance and fracture modes of Prettau Highly Translucent Zirconia and Resin Nano Ceramic Lava Ultimate CAD/CAM endocrowns versus post and core supported CAD/CAM crowns in endodontically treated extremely damaged maxillary molars.
Methods: Twenty maxillary first molars of similar size and shape were selected. The teeth were all decoronated and endodontically treated, then they were randomly divided equally into four groups (5 each) as follows; Group I: Five teeth restored by post and core supported Prettau Highly Translucent Zirconia (PZ) crowns. Group II: Five teeth restored by PZ endocrowns. Group III: Five teeth restored by post and core supported Resin Nano Ceramic Lava Ultimate (LU) crowns. Group IV: Five teeth restored by LU endocrowns. All specimens were scanned, designed and milled using ZirkonZahn CAD/CAM 5 Tec machine. After cementation, all specimens were thermocycled, then they were subjected to fracture resistance test and fracture mode analysis. The data were collected, tabulated and statistically analyzed.
Results: Group I exhibited the highest fracture resistance followed by group IV then group III while group II exhibited the lowest fracture resistance. Groups I and II resulted in unfavorable unrestorable failures while Groups III and IV resulted in favorable restorable failures.
Conclusions: Endocrowns can be used as a conservative clinical alternative for restoring severely damaged endodontically treated posterior teeth. Resin composites seem to be the material of choice to build-up endocrown restorations.
Clinical Significance: Restoration of extremely damaged and endodontically treated teeth present a critical and time consuming clinical situation.

A Survey to Access Prevalence and Severity of Burnout Syndrome among Physiotherapists in Ahmedabad
Authors: Bimalkumar Parekh Rajavi , P. Jhala Mihirdev
Published: April 2022

Background: Burnout is defined as a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic work place stress that has not being successfully managed in the International Classification of Disease 11th revision (ICD-11). It is characterized by a feeling of insufficient energy or exhaustion, increased mental distance from one’s work, or a feeling of negativity or cynicism about one’s work and reduced professional efficiency. Burnout among Physiotherapists can be a result of constant demanding therapeutic relationship with patients, lack of support from management or colleagues, high work load and time pressure. As for Academicians burn out can be a result of multiple teaching activities, handling research projects, performing administrative tasks. All this can lead to emotional exhaustion, low job satisfaction, performance; which made it important to know the prevalence of burnout to help understand the reasons of it so that necessary steps can be taken in that work area to prevent burnout.
Aim and Objective: To find prevalence and severity of Burnout Syndrome among Physiotherapists.
Methodology: A data of 109 physiotherapists of Ahmedabad was collected through google form survey. Academicians and Clinicians were included. Copenhagen Burnout Inventory was filled by the result was established by the average scores of personal burnout, work-related burnout, and client related burnout.
Results: The overall prevalence of Burnout was found to be 91/109 data, where 79.59% Academicians and 86.66% Clinicians had burnout. Severity of Burnout in Academicians majority of individuals had Mild Burnout 53.06%, 16.32% had Moderate Burnout, 10.20% were found to have Severe Burnout, whereas in Clinicians 56.66% had Mild Burnout and 30% had Moderate Burnout.
Conclusion: The study revealed an overall prevalence of burnout syndrome was 91/106 where clinicians showed more burnout than academicians but severity was found to be more in academicians.

Brachial plexus injury, rotator cuff injury and shoulder subluxation are physically debilitating. Orthosis and patient compliance are critical to improve functional outcomes. Traditional treatment of these above conditions involved use of airplane splints which provided fixed abduction at the shoulder joint. These splints maintain a single abduction position and pose physical, social and environmental restrictions for the patient. To facilitate various manoeuvrable positions instead of the conventional 900 position of the classical airplane splint after recoverance of power at specific body segments. So, we have modified to the design of a pre-existing airplane shoulder splint, which is more advantageous than other existing splints. This is an adjustable, multipositional, less cumbersome plastic design. It helps in supporting the affected arm in desired position, and elbow in 90̊ flexion to full extension and also provides good cosmoses.

The aim of this study was to compare the varieties of health risk behaviours prevalent among examined of employees in oil servicing companies in the Niger Delta Region, Nigeria. A total of Three Hundred and Ninety Five copies of structured questionnaires were validated and proportionally allocated to the selected oil servicing companies across the study area. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were employed in reporting the findings in the study. And findings shows that more people enjoyed taking beer and spirit on a daily basis while few take Champagne, Whisky and Brandy with more than 70% of the workers taking maximum of 2 bottles of alcoholic drink per day suggesting 60 bottles per month. The rate of cigarette smoking was also found to be very alarming and together with high intake of alcohol led to intoxication which propel majority of the workers to in multiple sexual relationships and with the intent of deriving physical and psychological satisfaction preferred not to use condom during sexual interactions. As a matter of fact, alcohol consumption, high blood pressure, tobacco use, diabetes/high blood sugar and depression were found to be the prevalent health risk behaviours among employees in the different oil servicing companies across the region. However, the analysis shows that there is a significant variation in the health risk behaviours common among employees (F=15.946; p<0.05). This shows that the level of display of health risk behaviours in various oil servicing companies may be totally different among the workers. Thus, the alternative hypothesis stating that there is a statistically significant variation in the health risk behaviours common among employees is accepted. It is therefore recommended that management should conduct company based risk assessment to identify causes as well as effects on both workers and company at large. Introduction of periodic publication of health risk behaviours chart of workers as guiding tool for appropriate monitoring and decision making. As a matter of urgency, a functional health promotion/intervention unit responsible for health programmes and initiatives need to be set up.

The Trans-radial amputation can significantly affect the level of autonomy and the capability of performing daily living, working and social activities. The current prosthetic solutions contribute to overcome the problem to a certain extent due to limitations of the upper limb prosthetic component availability. So, one common problem in trans-radial prosthesis is functional limitation of supination and pronation which results minimised ADL activities. As the pronation and supination movements is lost in ideal, short and very short level of trans-radial stump. Solutions to this formidable problem needs a provision of special design in the forearm to allow pronation in the terminal device whenever its required. Here in this study an innovative technique is introduced, which overcomes the above concerned issues i.e., current trans-radial prosthetic functional limitations, in terms of user’s satisfaction and activities of daily living (ADL). The ultimate goal is to provide new design inputs in the upper extremity prosthetic field and, contemporary, increase user satisfaction rates and reduce device abandonment.
