PERANCANGAN ALAT BANTU KERJA BERDASARKAN ANALISIS ERGONOMI POSTUR KERJA DAN KELUHAN BIOMEKANIK TENAGA MEKANIK MOTOR DI SEBUAH BENGKEL MOTOR DI TANGERANG
Authors: Sukania I Wayan
Published: October 2020

Setiap pekerjaan yang dilakukan oleh manusia hendaknya dalam kondisi nyaman, aman, efektif dan produktif dan selamat. Pekerjaan di sebuah bengkel service motor merupakan pekerjaan fisik dan mental. Di dalam menjalankan tugasnya, tenaga mekanik  mengambil berbagai postur kerja, karena sarana bantu kerja di tempat kerja kurang memadai, maka tenaga mekanik memaksakan tubuhnya untuk mengambil postur yang tidak ergonomis. Postur tidak ergonomis mengakibatkan keluhan pada otot rangka dan bila dilaksanakan dalam jangka waktu lama mengakibatkan munculnya penyakit akibat kerja yang disebut MSD (Musculoskeletal Dissorder). Postur kerja tenaga mekanik selama melaksanakan dianalisis menggunakan Metode Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) sehingga dapat memberikan rekomendasi postur yang lebih aman dan nyaman. Dari sisi para mekanik keluhan biomekanik terbanyak terjadi pada bagian tubuh seperti pinggang, leher atas, lutut dan bahu kanan yang disebabkan postur yang tidak ergonomis, bahkan skor REBA mencapai angka 12 yang berarti sangat berisiko. Melalui analisis keluhan biomekanik, penyebab, harapan dan solusi diperoleh daftar kebutuhan untuk perancangan alat bantu kerja. Konsep alat bantu angkat motor yang dihasilkan yaitu dengan disain alas tempat meletakkan motor bidang persegi panjang. Konstruksi rangka penggerak berupa rangka silang. Tenaga penggerak menggunakan motor listrik yang menggerakkan poros berulir dan mekanisme reduksi putaran
Methods for endovascular treatment of bifurcation lesions of coronary arteries: commonly used techniques
Authors: Syrgaev Zairbek , Turdubaev Abai
Published: October 2020

In everyday operating practice, the endovascular surgeon often encounters complex lesions of the coronary arteries, in particular bifurcation lesions. Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is technically difficult in these cases and has always been associated with lower procedural success rates and poorer clinical outcomes than non-bifurcation lesions. The introduction of antiproliferative coated stents into clinical practice significantly improved the results and gave impetus to the development of various treatment techniques. The provisional technique for implanting one stent into the main branch remains the approach of choice for most bifurcation lesions. The choice of the most effective technique for each individual bifurcation is important. The use of a two-stent technique is an acceptable approach for some forms of bifurcation lesions. However, a large amount of metal in the artery wall, as a rule, remains uncovered in the lumen of the vessel during this tactic, which is especially true for the risk of stent thrombosis. New techniques and special bifurcation stents may possibly overcome some limitations of the using two stents and revolutionize the management of PCI of bifurcation lesions of the coronary arteries in the future.

¿Hay que proteger a Saussure de sus seguidores? Notas ítem sobre la etimología saussureana
Authors: Trabant Jürgen
Published: October 2020

“Bach gegen seine Liebhabaer verteidigt”, “defensa de Bach contra sus entusiastas2” es el título de un célebre artículo de Theodor Adorno en el cual él ataca a los seguidores de un Bach “auténtico”, a los puristas bachianos y a un historicismo que cree ser el representante absoluto de la verdad musical. Estos seguidores de un Bach histórico luchaban –con un fervor caso religioso– para que se interpretara a Bach con los instrumentos de la época y que se reconstruyera la sonoridad “auténtica” que restituye el contexto eclesiástico. Estos seguidores confinan a Bach en su medio histórico estrecho –que no era precisamente apreciado por el propio Bach– de cantor de la Thomaskirche de Leipzig. Adorno defiende a Bach en el nombre del progreso musical mostrando las potencialidades de su música que justamente intenta romper las cadenas de su tiempo e insiste en la apertura de los textos musicales de Bach quien se rebela contra las limitaciones históricas, debidas por ejemplo a la estrechez de datos ideológicos y a la pobreza material de los instrumentos atrasados. El clavicordio no es necesariamente el sonido con el cual sueñe la música de Bach. Por supuesto, los casos históricos nunca son idénticos, pero hay analogías estructurales evidentes en lo que sucede alrededor de Saussure. ¿Hay que defender entonces a Saussure de sus amigos, seguidores de un Saussure auténtico?

Golpe en Brasil. Genealogía de una farsa
Authors: Anderson Perry
Published: October 2020

Golpe en Brasil reúne textos escritos entre abril y junio de 2016, período en el que se dio inicio al proceso de destitución de la presidenta Dilma Rousseff. Los autores aquí presentados nos ayudan a entender cómo se ha gestado y qué perspectivas se abren en el complejo proceso de desestabilización del orden democrático que vive actualmente Brasil. Escrito en la intensidad y la vertiginosidad de un proceso que aún está en curso, este libro pretende ser el testimonio de un momento trágico de la historia latinoamericana. La mayor nación de la región, la que supo liderar durante la última década un proceso de cambio y de transformaciones sociales sin precedentes; la que apoyó y promovió un activo proceso de integración regional, contribuyendo a su reconocimiento global como país soberano y solidario, dispuesto a revertir una historia de negación de derechos, de exclusiones y discriminación; Brasil, el país de todos, convertido ahora en el laboratorio de experimentación de un nuevo tipo de golpe institucional que puede extenderse por todo el continente. El golpe: la farsa. La aniquilación de la soberanía popular, base de la democracia, y su substitución por una república de autócratas corruptos. Brasil, el país donde la dictadura prometió durar un día y se instaló por larguísimos 21 años, nuevamente poniendo en evidencia el desprecio de sus élites hacia la democracia y hacia los derechos ciudadanos.

Innovaciones educativas 2016. Educar para la sociedad digital
Authors: Telefónica Fundación
Published: October 2020

La educación debe ser soporte de igualdad y justicia social. Debe facilitar tanto el desarrollo personal como la integración social. El momento histórico al que se enfrenta la educación en la actualidad es fascinante. La revolución digital está generando, de modo incremental y acelerado, transformaciones en todos los ámbitos de la sociedad. La educación no está exenta de estos cambios. Al contrario, es donde más críticos son sus efectos. Por ello, es urgente que los conozcamos mejor y que consigamos que la educación no sólo se adapte, sino que se anticipe a ellos. Lo que se ha venido denominando Sociedad Digital hace referencia a una sociedad que se caracteriza por ser abierta, cambiante, conectada y global. En ella, los alumnos son colaborativos, sus ideas compiten en igualdad de condiciones. Cuenta más el valor de la contribución que el de la posición. Los alumnos no esperan clases magistrales, sino conversaciones abiertas.
ЛІСІВНИЧО-ТАКСАЦІЙНІ ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ГРАБНЯКІВ ПРИРОДНОГО ЗАПОВІДНИКА «МЕДОБОРИ»
Authors: Bachynska U. O.
Published: October 2020

In the Nature Reserve of Medobory a zonal vegetation is represented by dark deciduous forests, with a hornbeam and oak trees mainly, dominated by Quercus robur, Caprius betulus, and Flaxinus excelsior.

Within the tree stands hornbeam predominates on the area of 21.7% of the forested lands of the reserve. Preliminary investigations of the Reserve hornbeam plantations were conducted by Mykola Korol and Ihor Humeniuk. They pointed to the stability of these plantations, their high competitive abilities but depleted biotic potential. The objects, selected for the study, are permanent trial areas, where during the last taxation measurements the hornbeam dominations in the tree stands were observed (with the tree stands of 6 and more items). On the studied trial areas mature and overmature plantations prevail by age groups. The hornbeams grow here mainly in young hornbeam forests in the first, second and third bonitets. The predominant number of trees on the trial areas is hornbeam of seed origin. Except L-28, where the conditions of growth are dry oakery on the rock, the hornbeams grow on the third bonitet and are of sprouting origin mainly. The tree stands on the trial areas are of the same age. As for the age groups they are mature and overmature, except for L-13 and L-28, where the young stocks grow, and L-13, where the one of a middle age grow. The tree stands taxation indicators on the trial areas are characterized by some differences, depending on age and completeness, within different types. The stock of live wood is on average 115-463 cubic metres per hectare. Trees differentiations by the degree of thickness show the process of a plant formation depending on their origin and age. On the trial areas the renewal of a hornbeam is represented by one- and two-years-old undergrowth. The forest stands are characterized by insignificant variability of their taxation structure indicators, being the result of a slight influence of natural and anthropogenic factors.

SCIENTIFIC APPROACH IN EFL YOUNG ADOLESCENTS TO PROMOTE HIGHER ORDER THINKING SKILLS: TEACHER’S STRATEGY, BENEFITS, AND CHALLENGES
Authors: Setyarini Sri
Published: October 2020

Higher Order Thinking as one of the main agendas in the Curriculum 2013 introduces several learning approaches – one of which is scientific approach. However, so far, the majority of English teachers in Indonesia still face some challenges due to their insufficient knowledge and experience in implementing this approach. This paper presents a research report on strategies of promoting higher order thinking skills (HOTS) in EFL young adolescents’ classroom through scientific approach. It aimed to investigate how HOTS was promoted in the EFL classroom, identify benefits gained by the teacher and the students from the implemented approach, and find out teacher’s challenges and solutions from the teaching practice. This study employed a case study involving a class of seventh grade students as research participants. To collect data, three instruments were used such as classroom observation, interview with the teacher and the students, and document analysis. The findings revealed that scientific approach with its components (observing, questioning, associating, exploring, and communicating) may promote students’ HOTS as seen from their enthusiasm and active participation in the classroom. The students also focused more on showing ideas, arguments, and views toward the questions from other groups as proved by their statements in the interview claiming that they were trained to do analysis, evaluation, and creation through learning activities. Meanwhile, the teacher stated that her challenges in teaching dealt with her limited experience and knowledge to implement this approach. To overcome them, she committed to join professional development programs and improve her linguistic skills.   Keywords:  EFL Classroom, Higher Order Thinking Skills, Scientific Approach, The Curriculum 2013, Young Adolescents

Published: October 2020

Objetivo: Avaliar a limitação de atividade, consciência de risco e participação social de pessoas acometidas pela hanseníase. Métodos: Estudo transversal com amostra de 152 participantes distribuídos em dois grupos. A coleta de dados ocorreu entre novembro de 2018 e março de 2019, mediante aplicação de questionário socioeconômico e dos instrumentos Screening of Activity Limitation and Safety Awareness (SALSA) e Participation Scale. Resultados: Não houve diferença significativa de idade entre os grupos, porém ocorreu associação do sexo masculino e maior frequência de analfabetos entre os multibacilares. Não foi observada associação entre classificação operacional e variáveis socioeconômicas. Quanto aos graus de limitação de atividade, consciência de risco e participação social, observou-se uma diferença maior das médias no grupo dos multibacilares, assim como uma associação entre esse grupo e a presença de consciência de risco envolvido em certas atividades diárias e algum grau de restrição à participação social. Conclusão: Mesmo após o término do tratamento, observaram-se níveis expressivos de limitação de atividade e de grau de consciência de risco, especialmente nos multibacilares. Por fim, a associação das formas multibacilares com a restrição à participação social evidencia como a hanseníase afeta socialmente a vida das pessoas acometidas.

Objetivo: Relatar a fratura diafisária de tíbia e fíbula no cenário esportivo, trazendo particularidades do esporte profissional e da escolha do tratamento aplicada ao contexto. Revisão bibliográfica: A fratura de tíbia e fíbula é uma lesão de incidência relevante e requer atenção especial em atletas, realizada por meio da escolha do tratamento e do retorno precoce às atividades. Deve-se atentar ao mecanismo de lesão e classificar adequadamente a fratura para indicar o tratamento. Os exames de imagem são importantes para identificar lesões associadas e evitar armadilhas. O retorno ao esporte é multifatorial e depende da gravidade da lesão e da abordagem utilizada para o tratamento. Entretanto, apenas parte dos atletas alcançam o mesmo nível pré-lesão. Considerações finais: Um diagnóstico preciso com medidas iniciais de tratamento em tempo adequado é crucial. A haste intramedular é uma boa escolha de tratamento e, aliada a reabilitação, apresenta bons resultados. A liberação precoce do apoio e o início imediato da fisioterapia são facilitados por esta modalidade operatória, permitindo que o cuidado do atleta seja otimizado.

Synthesis and Preclinical Evaluation of [18F]PF04217903, a Selective MET PET Tracer
Authors: Lien Vegard Torp , Hauge Emily , Nuruddin Syed , Klaveness Jo , Olberg Dag Erlend
Published: October 2020

The tyrosine kinase MET (hepatocyte growth factor receptor) is abnormally activated in a wide range of cancers and is often correlated with a poor prognosis. Precision medicine with positron emission tomography (PET) can potentially aid in the assessment of tumor biochemistry and heterogeneity, which can prompt the selection of the most effective therapeutic regimes. The selective MET inhibitor PF04217903 (1) formed the basis for a bioisosteric replacement to the deoxyfluorinated analogue [18F]2, intended as a PET tracer for MET. [18F]2 could be synthesized with a “hydrous fluoroethylation” protocol in 6.3 ± 2.6% radiochemical yield and a molar activity of >50 GBq/µmol. In vitro autoradiography indicated that [18F]2 specifically binds to MET in PC3 tumor tissue, and in vivo biodistribution in mice showed predominantly a hepatobiliary excretion along with a low retention of radiotracer in other organs.
2D Rigid Benzoxazole-Linked Covalent Organic Framework Films with High-Strength, High-Modulus Mechanical Behavior
Authors: Miller Kristen , Alemany Lawrence B. , Thomas Edwin L. , Egap Eilaf
Published: October 2020

Two-dimensional (2D) benzoxazole-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) provide an opportunity to incorporate the strength and modulus of corresponding 1D rigid-rod polymers into multiple directions by extending covalent bonding into two dimensions while simultaneously reducing density. Thus far, this potential has been elusive because of the challenge of producing high-quality COF films, particularly those with irreversible, rigid benzazole linkages. The majority of COF syntheses use a single-step process approach where polymerization occurs faster than crystallization and typically result in a poorly ordered and insoluble powder. Here, we present a one-step synthesis and two-step process that allows the deposition of a uniform intermediate film via reversible, non-covalent interactions. This network then undergoes an annealing step that facilitates the irreversible conversion to 2D covalently-bonded polymer product. The resulting films are semi-crystalline with platelet-like crystals embedded in an amorphous matrix with sharp crystal-amorphous interfaces. By this approach, we achieve free-standing films for which we demonstrate the first example of mechanical testing of benzazole-linked COFs. These initial films have promising mechanical properties with an in-plane ultimate tensile strength of nearly 50 MPa and axial tensile and transverse compressive elastic moduli on the scale of several GPa. These mechanical properties already rival the performance of solution-cast films of 1D polybenzoxazole (PBO).

Published: October 2020

Herein, we report a mild and general nickel-catalysed asymmetric reductive alkylation to effectively convert enamines—a class of important yet underexploited feedstock chemicals—into drug-like α-branched chiral amines and derivatives. This reaction involves the regio- and stereoselective hydrometallation of an enamine to generate a catalytic amount of enantioenriched alkylnickel intermediate, followed by C–C bond formation via alkyl electrophiles.
Departmentalization in Elementary Schools: Contradictions Teachers Confront
Authors:   University of Tennessee.
Published: October 2020

This paper presents analyses of observational and interview data gathered in a study of exemplary fourth-grade teachers from five states. The central issue explored is the relative merits of self-contained and departmentalized models of instruction. We found no achievement differences in the classrooms by organizational pattern, but differences in the instruction offered in these two models were identified, and mixed views of the relative advantages of either organization plan were expressed by the participants. A key tension was whether these organizational plans are intended to primarily benefit teachers or students. However, the complexities of the cost/benefit concerns are the findings that this study highlights.
The effects of the covid-19 pandemic on conventional and islamic stock markets in Turkey
Authors: ERDOĞAN Seyfettin , GEDİKLİ Ayfer , ÇEVİK Emrah İsmail
Published: October 2020

In order to reveal the macroeconomic effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, financial markets should also be handled in addition to the real sector. Investigating the changes in the stock market may give clues to analyze the effects of the pandemic on financial markets. The researches in question can be carried out for a country group or a single country. Studies that are conducted for a single country allow researchers to analyze problems more precisely and put forward more specific and convenient policy suggestions. Furthermore, while investigating the effect of the pandemic on stock markets, handling conventional and Islamic stock markets together can provide more comparative and realistic data in determining the policies regarding financial markets.
The aim of the study is to examine the reaction of conventional and Islamic stock markets to the Covid-19 outbreak in Turkey. In the study, the DCC-GARCH method was applied by using the daily data from Feb 10, 2011 to Sep 02, 2020. The empirical results indicated that Islamic stock markets are more stable to the global Covid-19 outbreak shock than the conventional stock market in Turkey. Based on these findings it can be suggested that Turkey should take steps to support the development of the Islamic financial system to have a sounder financial system.

Enerji Nakil Hattı Projelerinin Uygulanmasında Arazi Mülkiyetinin Kazanılması Sürecinin Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: DÖNER Fatih , KAYA Erhan
Published: October 2020

Elektrik üretim tesisleri ile transformatör merkezleri ve son tüketici arasında elektrik enerjisi iletimini sağlayan sistemlere enerji nakil hatları (ENH) denir. Türkiye’nin gelişmekte olan bir ülke olması ve artan nüfusu nedeniyle elektrik enerjisi ihtiyacı artmakta bu ihtiyacı karşılamak için yeni üretim tesisleri ve ENH oluşturulmaktadır. ENH projeleri hazırlanırken başta ekonomik, çevresel ve güvenlik gibi konular dikkate alınarak ENH’nın geçirileceği araziler belirlenmektedir. ENH projelerinin hayata geçirilebilmesi belirlenen bu arazilerin mülkiyetinin kazanılması süreci sonrasında mümkün olmaktadır. Arazi mülkiyetinin kazanılması sürecinde yaşanan problemler ENH projelerinin uygulanmasında gecikmelere, dava sayılarının artmasına ve kamuoyu tepkisine yol açmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, ENH projelerinin uygulanmasında arazi mülkiyetinin kazanılması süreci değerlendirilmektedir. Veriler incelendiğinde, son bir yılda ENH ile ilgili açılan dava sayısının 15759 ve beş yıllık dönemde arazi malikleriyle mahkemesiz uzlaşma oranının %13 olduğu görülmektedir. Dava sayısının fazla, uzlaşma oranının düşük olmasındaki en büyük etken ENH’nın geçirileceği arazi için ödenecek bedelin belirlenmesindeki taşınmaz değerleme çalışmalarıdır. Referans alınan değerleme yöntemleri, ölçütler ve oranlar sonucunda belirlenen arazi değeri çoğu durumda gerçek değeri yansıtmadığından arazi sahipleriyle uzlaşma sağlanamamaktadır. En ideal çözümün yasal boyutta, taşınmaz değerleme faaliyetlerini tek başına düzenleyen bütüncül bir değerleme yasasının hazırlanması, kurumsal boyutta kadastronun taşınmaz değerlemeyi de içermesi ve teknik boyutta güncel alım-satım değerleriyle birlikte taşınmaz özelliklerinin bir arada yönetilebileceği bir veri tabanının oluşturulması olduğu değerlendirilmektedir.
