A Patient's Journey in Curating Her Medical Team for Whole Person Care
Authors: Kakani Swapna
Published: January 2020

Twenty-nine years ago I was born with Short Bowel Syndrome, which required me, from birth, to depend on feedings through a gastrostomy tube and central line. To this day I require IV nutrition daily. I am not yet thirty years old, and I have had 65 surgeries, including a small intestine organ transplant, and bilateral hip replacements. I understand how the medical system works—and where it fails. I now have an incomparable level of knowledge and first-hand experience with our healthcare system that I hope to use to enlighten and educate.My care for the last three decades has not been whole-body. Instead, it has been fragmented highly subspecialized care, leaving me doing well in the short term, but with no cohesive long-term plan. I had discussions with my current medical care providers, I left teams that were inadequate, I inquired opinions of new doctors from around the country and curated my own team of professionals from 3 states in order to LIVE not survive in a hospital. The result: Whole person care with me as the driver and coordinator.I will impart pieces of my experience to understand what it takes to create the “pit crew,” the healthcare system was not providing me, and how you as a medical provider can be the best advocate for your patient on their “pit crew.” Hear real examples of patient-provider interactions, the vital importance of shared decision making, and the details behind true compassion that inspire whole person care.
How can we design a curriculum for a resilient medical student? - A blueprint for resiliency programs for med students in Japan
Authors: Tsuchiya Shizuma , Siriratsivawong Kris , Tsuchiya Hiromichi , Takamiya Yusuke , Izumi Miki
Published: January 2020

Recent research around the world has consistently reported that medical students experience a high rate of psychological morbidity, depersonalization, and low personal accomplishment. Resilience-enhancing programs have been proposed and implemented even in Japan. However, most of them remain extracurricular programs that are not specifically tailored to medical students. Additionally, they mostly mimic resiliency programs in North America, although studies have indicated that cultural perspective to the self, others, and context contribute to the capacity to respond to a stressful situation.In this context, the presenters investigated what factors might affect the similarities or differences in the perceptions of resilience among experienced palliative care physicians in Canada and Japan in 2017-2018 in order to propose a theory for a resiliency curriculum from a different cultural perspective. This study showed that Japanese physicians are more likely to rely on “Relationships” with other persons such as mentors, family, friends, or colleagues; in contrast, Canadian physicians tended to be more focused on individual factors such as “Autonomy” and “Confidence”.As a result, Showa University School of Medicine in Japan has developed a progressively advancing resiliency program for first through fourth year medical students as part of a new curriculum, implementation of which will begin in the spring of 2020. This represents one of the largest revisions in the school’s history. In this presentation, a blueprint for resiliency programs in a new curriculum will be presented, including course description, course content, educational objectives, learning resources, timetables, and instructional strategies.
Shifting Organizational Cultures: Developing Leaders in Humanistic Interprofessional Education
Authors: Rider Elizabeth A , Navedo Deborah D. , Branch, Jr William T.
Published: January 2020

Organizational cultures significantly influence faculty and clinician well-being, trainees’ professional identity formation, and the care of patients and families. The ability of interprofessional healthcare teams to work collaboratively is important for safe, high quality, relationship-centered care. A multi-site project, Faculty Development for the Interprofessional Teaching of Humanism,* was initiated to create a national curriculum in humanism and professionalism designed to train interprofessional education (IPE) faculty leaders. Boston Children’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School (BCH/HMS) is the first pediatric site selected to design and implement this curriculum. Our objectives were to: 1) develop a national curriculum in humanism and professionalism for IPE faculty leaders; 2) adapt the curriculum for pediatrics; and 3) create and sustain a faculty fellowship for IPE leaders at BCH/HMS that promotes humanistic values in organizational culture and learning and care environments. We designed and implemented the curriculum at nine national sites. Topics focus on collaboration, communication, and relationships and include: highly functioning teams; advanced team formation; patients’ perspectives; empathy; well-being, resilience, renewal; diversity & inclusion; appreciative inquiry; values; IPE and others. To achieve sustainability at BCH/HMS, we created a unique Faculty Fellowship for Leaders in Humanistic Interprofessional Education. To increase impact, we recruited co-sponsors from departments across BCH. Fellows participate in 1½-hour, twice-monthly small-group sessions for 8 months and design and implement a group project. Twenty-one faculty applied. The first cohort included 11 faculty representing medicine, social work, nursing, and psychology. The Faculty Fellowship provides opportunities for IPE faculty leaders to enhance teaching skills, collaboration, relationships, reflective capacities, and role modeling in humanism and professionalism, and to work together to foster humanistic values within organizational culture. *Supported by a multi-institutional grant from the Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation (Dr. Branch as national PI; Dr. Rider as site PI)
Music, Brain and Health
Authors: Padjen Ante L.
Published: January 2020

Music, like language, is a uniquely human experience, ubiquitous across human cultures and across the human life span.Musical capacity appears early in evolution and it seems to be innate to most of the human population. Neurobiological studies of music perception and music performance profoundly affect the brain, in an acute and chronic way, by modulating networks involved in cognition, sensation, emotion, reward, and movement corresponding to the empirical findings why people listen to music: pleasure, self-awareness, social relatedness, and arousal and mood regulation.Most intriguing is “salutogenic” effect of musical activities, such as instrumental and choral “musicking” (particularly in non-professional musicians), both on the individual level and in populations. Musical training can promote the development of non-musical skills as diverse as language development, attention, visuospatial perception, and executive functions.Music is also a prophylactic resource, it improves the bonding of mother and child. There is a wide range of therapeutic domains and disorders where musical interventions improve the outcome. As an example, familiar music has an exceptional ability to elicit memories, movements, motivation and positive emotions from adults affected by dementia.Considering that one of the most important problems in biomedicine is “understanding what is to be human” then “music should be an essential part of this pursuit” – of an understanding of the whole person. Despite evidence of significant effects of music on health and well-being - music is not well present in current re-humanization of medicine
Queering Whole Person Care
Authors: Shulman Jane , Marchionni Caroline , Taylor Catherine
Published: January 2020

This workshop is the product of a research study exploring the strategies that queer people develop to navigate hegemonic, heteropatriarchal health care systems, and ways that nurse education can incorporate a narrative-based, whole person care approach to understanding and supporting the needs of queer patients. This mixed-methods study included interviews with queer people, nurse educators and practicing nurses; textual analysis of queer health narratives; close reading of queer, feminist and cultural theory; and autoethnography.Some of the questions that we will explore are: How do queers use personal narratives to help navigate health care systems not designed to see/meet their needs? How do queers challenge dominant power structures in medicine? What does whole person care look like in a queer context? What would nurses like to see included in nursing education, and what do queers want health providers to know? What are the key pedagogical challenges in attempting such communication?The stories that queer people carry with them to medical encounters are a rich and underutilized resource for health care providers, and a tool for patients trying to manage serious or chronic illness. We will explore methods for including storytelling in nursing education as well as patient care, and participants will engage in a narrative medicine/autoethnographic exercise.We hope participants will leave our workshop with a better understanding of queer peoples' experiences of health care, and ways that queers and nurses can work together for better health outcomes.

Published: January 2020

Background: Medical students experience high levels of stress during their training. Literature suggests that mindfulness can reduce stress and increase self-compassion levels in medical students. Most mindfulness training programs are delivered face-to-face and require significant time commitments, which can be difficult to achieve for rurally-based students with heavy academic workloads.Aim: We sought to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of a mindfulness training program delivered online to medical students at a Rural Clinical School.Methods: An 8-week online training program was delivered to third year medical students at the Rural Clinical School of Western Australia in 2016.Using quantitative-qualitative mixed-methods approach, we measured the frequency and duration of the participants’ mindfulness meditation practice, and assessed changes in their perceived stress, self-compassion and compassion levels, as well as personal and professional attitudes and behaviours.Results: 47 students were recruited to the study. 50% of participants were practising at least weekly by the end of the 8-week program, and 32% of responding students reported practising at least weekly 6 months following the intervention. There was a statistically significant reduction in participants’ perceived stress levels and a significant increase in self-compassion at 6 month follow up. Participants reported qualitative insights about the personal and professional impact of mindfulness meditation training as well as barriers to practice.
Mindful Medical Practice Enabling the Management of Anorexia Nervosa, Alcohol Use Disorder and Separation Anxiety Disorder
Authors: Lucena Ricardo
Published: January 2020

This is a case report of comorbidity involving psychiatric disorders. The case could only be understood and managed effectively due to the combination of the therapeutic alliance as the cornerstone of mindful medical practice, psychotherapeutic approaches, and medication. A 27-year-old woman started a psychiatric treatment because of her alcohol problem. She drank daily until she passed out. After assessment, she was admitted into a detoxification facility for a month. As an outpatient, she remained abstinent for periods of time (1-9 months). She also struggled with binge eating, purging and disturbed perception of body image (perceiving herself as obese).The therapeutic alliance was the main component of treatment. She felt understood and not judged. She kept an open mind to understand her psychopathology. Psychoeducation was an important tool. It included sessions on addiction and the core symptoms of anorexia nervosa. Behavioural analysis and skills training helped to identify an anxiety disorder at the basis of all clinical presentation. The patient realized how ambivalent she was to change. After several episodes of alcohol use, binge eating and purging, she redefined her life goals. As a result, her motivation to change evolved. She became mindful of triggers and began to have fewer episodes of alcohol use. She could decrease her binge eating, purging behaviour, and became aware of her distorted perception of her body. She accepted to take medication to control her pathological anxiety, as well as started using paced breathing and muscle relaxation.
Shared Decision Making in Surgery: A Meta-Analysis and Full Systematic Review
Authors: Niburski Kacper , Guadagno Elena , Poenaru Dan
Published: January 2020

Shared decision-making (SDM), the process where physician and patient reach an agreed-upon choice by understanding the values, concerns, and preferences inherent within each treatment option available, has been increasingly implemented in clinical practice to better health care outcomes. Despite the proven efficacy of SDM to provide better patient-guided care in medicine, its use in surgery has not been studied widely. A search strategy was developed with a medical librarian. It included nine databases from inception until December 2018. After a 2-person title and abstract screen, full-text publications were analyzed in detail. A meta-analysis was done to quantify the impact of SDM in surgical specialties. In total 5,596 studies were retrieved. After duplicates were removed, titles and abstracts were screened, and p-values were recorded, 140 (45 RCTs and 95 cross-sectional studies) were used for the systematic review and 42 for the meta-analyses. Most of the studies noted decreased intervention rate (8 of 14), decisional conflict (13 of 16), and decisional regret (3 of 3), and an increased decisional satisfaction (9 of 12), knowledge (19 of 20), SDM preference (6 of 8), and physician trust (3 of 4) when using SDM. Time increase per patient encounter was inconclusive. The meta-analysis showed that despite high heterogeneity, the results were significant. Far from obviating surgical immediacy, these results suggest that SDM is vital for the best indicators of care. With decreased conflict and anxiety, increasing knowledge and satisfaction, and creating a more whole, trusting relationship, SDM appears to be beneficial in surgery.

Belakangan ini pelajar Indonesia telah begitu terjangkiti virus hedonisme. Orientasi pelajar yang seharusnya belajar atau menuntut ilmu dalam keseharian mereka berubah menjadi berorientasi pada mencari kesenangan dan kenikmatan dengan bergaya mewah dan membangun kebiasaan buruk. pelajar kita benar-benar dalam kubangan bahaya nyata. Salah satunya dengan dijadikan hedonisme sebagai orientasi hidup mereka. Para pelajar kehilangan kreativitasnya dan motivasi belajar karena lebih mengutamakan bersenang-senang. Akhirnya muncul kebiasaan aneh dilakangan anak dan remaja. Seperti balapan liar hanya untuk sekedar pratice, mengejar untuk memiliki barang-barang mewah meski  kadang harus membuat mereka kehilangan kehormatan diri.  hedonisme sebagai doktrin yang menyatakan bahwa kesenangan adalah hal yang paling penting dalam hidup. Paham inilah yang saat ini sedang mewabah di kalangan pelajar. Seperti contoh ilustrasi sebelumnya di atas di mana para pelajar berdandan tak semestinya, lebih mementingkan gaya hidup (fashionable). Hal ini tentu mengakibatkan tergerusnya tujuan mulia pendidikan negara ini yang seharusnya mencerdaskan kehidupan bangsa tapi faktanya moral pelajar kian hari semakin merosot.

Published: January 2020

Background

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia, with large epidemics previously described to occur every 4 to 7 years.

Aim

To better understand the diagnostic methods used to detect M. pneumoniae; to better understand M. pneumoniae testing and surveillance in use; to identify epidemics; to determine detection number per age group, age demographics for positive detections, concurrence of epidemics and annual peaks across geographical areas; and to determine the effect of geographical location on the timing of epidemics.

Methods

A questionnaire was sent in May 2016 to Mycoplasma experts with national or regional responsibility within the ESCMID Study Group for Mycoplasma and Chlamydia Infections in 17 countries across Europe and Israel, retrospectively requesting details on M. pneumoniae-positive samples from January 2011 to April 2016. The Moving Epidemic Method was used to determine epidemic periods and effect of country latitude across the countries for the five periods under investigation.

Results

Representatives from 12 countries provided data on M. pneumoniae infections, accounting for 95,666 positive samples. Two laboratories initiated routine macrolide resistance testing since 2013. Between 2011 and 2016, three epidemics were identified: 2011/12, 2014/15 and 2015/16. The distribution of patient ages for M. pneumoniae-positive samples showed three patterns. During epidemic years, an association between country latitude and calendar week when epidemic periods began was noted.

Conclusions

An association between epidemics and latitude was observed. Differences were noted in the age distribution of positive cases and detection methods used and practice. A lack of macrolide resistance monitoring was noted.
Electronically assisted surveillance systems of healthcare-associated infections: a systematic review
Authors: Streefkerk H Roel A , Verkooijen Roel PAJ , Bramer Wichor M , Verbrugh Henri A
Published: January 2020

Background

Surveillance of healthcare-associated infections (HAI) is the basis of each infection control programme and, in case of acute care hospitals, should ideally include all hospital wards, medical specialties as well as all types of HAI. Traditional surveillance is labour intensive and electronically assisted surveillance systems (EASS) hold the promise to increase efficiency.

Objectives

To give insight in the performance characteristics of different approaches to EASS and the quality of the studies designed to evaluate them.

Methods

In this systematic review, online databases were searched and studies that compared an EASS with a traditional surveillance method were included. Two different indicators were extracted from each study, one regarding the quality of design (including reporting efficiency) and one based on the performance (e.g. specificity and sensitivity) of the EASS presented.

Results

A total of 78 studies were included. The majority of EASS (n = 72) consisted of an algorithm-based selection step followed by confirmatory assessment. The algorithms used different sets of variables. Only a minority (n = 7) of EASS were hospital-wide and designed to detect all types of HAI. Sensitivity of EASS was generally high (> 0.8), but specificity varied (0.37–1). Less than 20% (n = 14) of the studies presented data on the efficiency gains achieved.

Conclusions

Electronically assisted surveillance of HAI has yet to reach a mature stage and to be used routinely in healthcare settings. We recommend that future studies on the development and implementation of EASS of HAI focus on thorough validation, reproducibility, standardised datasets and detailed information on efficiency.

Bitkisel tasarım, mekan tasarımına doğal materyallerin eklenmesini sağladığı için peyzaj tasarımının önemli aşamalarından birisidir. Bitkisel tasarım kadar, kullanılan bitki türleri de bu aşamada önem arz eder. Bitki türlerinin seçiminde, bitkilerin tasarıma katacağı estetik ve fonksiyonel katkılar önemli bir paya sahiptir. Bunun yanısıra, bitkilerin ekolojik istekleri ve adaptasyonları da bitki seçimi ve kullanım kararını etkiler. Böylece, bölgesine göre değişen son derece kısıtlı alternatifler bitkisel tasarımı şekillendirmektedir. Bu şartlar altında bölgenin doğal vejetasyonunda yer alan bitki türleri avantaj sağlar. Aynı zamanda doğal vejetasyonda yer alan türlerin aynı cinsten kardeş bireylerinin de adaptasyon ihtimallerinin yüksek oluşu alternatifleri artırmaktadır. Bu nedenle doğal vejetasyonda yer alan türlerin tercihi tasarımcılar için önemli bir artıdır. Bu durum bölgenin doğal bitki varlığının korunması ve kültürel kullanıma kazandırılması için de fırsat oluşturur. Çalışmada, Karadeniz Bölgesi’nin hakim bitki varlıklarından ve temel ekonomik ürününden Corylus cinsi konu alınmıştır. Corylus cinsi farklı tür ve varyetelerinden oluşan bireylerinden özellikle fonskyionel ve estetik özellikleri ile ön plana çıkan bireylerinin peyzaj tasarımlarında kullanılması için farkındalığın artırılması çalışmanın temel amacıdır. Aynı zamanda bu bitkinin kentsel alan ve yaşam alanlarında kullanılması yenilebilir peyzaj olgusunu desteklemek açısından da değerlidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, literatür taraması ile Corylus tür ve varyetelerinden oluşan 5 türe ait 16 varyete incelenmiştir. Özellikle yaprak renkleri, formları ve ekolojik istekleri göz önüne alındığında kentsel ve kırsal peyzaj çalışmalarında fındık bitikisinin alternatif bir süs bitkisi olarak kullanılableceği söylenebilir.

Spaced Repetition: towards more effective learning in STEM
Authors: Voice Alison , Stirton Arran
Published: January 2020

The use of spaced repetition within a physics higher education thermodynamics module has been analysed for: its pattern of use by students; its effect on memory and performance in the end of module exam; and performance in a delayed test after the summer vacation. A custom-built web app with the facility to generate a personalised repetition timetable was used to deliver practice questions on the material throughout the module. Just over a quarter of students, spanning the whole ability range of the class, made use of the app in some way, about half using it in a spaced manner and half using it for massed practice just before the exam. Students who engaged in a spaced manner had an adjusted mean exam score of 70%, compared to 64% for massed usage and 61% for non-usage. The spaced usage represents a positive effect size of 0.47 over non-usage, which is statistically significant (p = 0.000056). For the delayed test the mean adjusted scores for spacers and non-users were 45% and 34% respectively. Whilst less material had been retained over the summer, this revealed a statistically significant (p = 0.021) positive effect size of 0.54. This work provides evidence and mechanisms to involve students in repetitive practice during the learning phase of a course to advantage their long term retention of material.
Characteristics of Magnetic Field Assisting Plasma GMAW-P

Published: January 2020

The droplet transfer and voltage-current characteristics of gas metal arc welding (GMAW) in single-pulsed GMAW (single GMAW-P), plasma pulsed GMAW (plasma GMAW-P), and plasma-GMAW-P with a magnetic field were studied using the synchronous acquisition system of high-speed camera and electric signals. The results showed the plasma arc and magnetic field had a significant effect on the droplet transfer process. The indirect arc of the plasma and gas metal arc emerged in the pulse peak phase causing a shunt phenomenon of the GMAW current. The period of the indirect arc was increased under the action of the magnetic field. In hybrid plasma GMAW-P, when the GMAW current did not exceed 140 A, several pulsed one-drop free transfers occurred and the droplet transfer period decreased with the increase in the plasma welding current; when the GMAW current exceeded 140 A, and the plasma welding current was less than 180 A, spray transfer was formed. The droplet transfer transformed into a projected transfer when the plasma welding current increased to 180 A. In plasma-GMAW-P hybrid welding with a magnetic field, the magnetic field had a slight effect on the transfer period. When the GMAW current did not exceed 140 A, the droplet transfer was mainly repelled transfer. The detaching location was on the right side of the wire when the magnetic field current was less than 3 A. When the magnetic field current exceeded 3 A, it was below or on the left side of the wire. When the GMAW current exceeded 140 A and the magnetic field current was less than 5 A, spray transfer was formed, but the droplet transfer mode transformed into a projected transfer with a magnetic field current of 5 A.
Steel-Reinforced Polyethylene Pipe: Extrusion Welding, Investigation, and Mechanical Testing
Authors:   American Welding Society, TIPPAYASAM CHAYANEE , KAEWVILAI ATTAPHON
Published: January 2020

This work presents extrusion welding with a square butt joint of V-shaped steel-reinforced polyethylene (SRPE) corrugated pipe. The SRPE pipe was welded in a single pass on the inside of the pipe. The welding temperature was controlled at 190°–200°C. The welding extruder was modified for controlling the travel speed and preheating conditions for welding. A high-density polyethylene (HDPE) rod was used as the welding filler metal, which was inserted into the extruder with a speed of 2.20 m/min. Welding progressed downhill from the overhead position with a travel speed of 3.0 cm/min. The effects of welding methods, with and without preheat conditions, on the weld quality were investigated by visual and radiographic inspections. From the results, the preheated welding condition showed complete fusion of the weld without any defects, while that of the nonpreheat exhibited a great number of voids inside the weld. The crystal structures of the preheated and nonpreheated welds were analyzed with an x-ray diffractometer and compared with the HDPE base material. From mechanical testing, the weld from the preheat condition showed a good ability to endure the tension force of 46 MPa and compressive stress of up to 0.41 MPa at 5%deflection. In addition, it was found the welded SRPE could tolerate hydrostatic pressure of up to 0.18 MPa without any water leakage when being used as a water-containing tank.
Geometry-Dependent Solidification Regimes in Metal Additive Manufacturing
Authors:   American Welding Society, PLOTKOWSKI ALEX
Published: January 2020

Recent modeling and experimental work in additive manufacturing has suggested cross-sectional geometry may play a significant role in the local development of the solidification structure through its influence on the heat source path. This effect has been rationalized as the transi-tion from a quasistatic point heat source regime to a regime dominated by the quasistatic motion of an equiva-lent line source. This work provides a simple analytical framework for determining the conditions under which a system transitions between these regimes. A transient semianalytical heat transfer model is used to examine a wide range of process conditions and material properties. A simple analytical expression is derived and shown to accu-rately predict the transition between solidification regimes over these conditions. The functional form of this expres-sion is then used to help understand the importance of various material properties, process parameters, and geometric factors on the characteristics of the solidification con-ditions. This approach may be used as a simple guideline for optimizing process conditions in response to variations in cross-sectional geometry to produce more consistent microstructural distributions in additively manufactured components.

Authors: Wiyono Agus , Hakim Teuku Muhammad I.
Published: January 2020

Terjadinya kegiatan illegal fishing sangat merugikan bagi bangsa Indonesia, terutama bagi para nelayan. Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan merupakan institusi pemerintah yang memiliki kewenangan dalam melakukan pengawasan dan penindakan terhadap kegiatan illegal fishing. Salah satu kegiatan pengawasan yang dilakukan selama ini adalah dengan memanfaatkan pesawat terbang berawak. Hal tersebut memiliki beberapa kelemahan. Untuk melengkapi kekurangan yang ada dalam penggunaan pesawat terbang berawak, pengoperasian UAV dapat digunakan untuk mendukung operasi pengawasan illegal fishing. Penggunaan single-UAV tidak akan sesuai tugas pengawasan dimana area yang diawasi sangatlah luas. Aplikasi multi-UAV untuk melaksanakan tugas semacam ini akan cukup efektif. Untuk mewujudkannya suatu system kendali kooperatif telah dibangun. Pada tahap pertama, sistem kendali dibangun dan diuji dalam lingkungan virtual yaitu melalui simulasi. Perangkat lunak yang digunakan untuk membangun system kendali adalah: Matlab/Simulink untuk membangun sistem kendali terbang dan X-Plane 9 digunakan untuk pemodelan matematis pesawat dan visualisasi dinamika pesawat. Metoda kooperatif yang digunakan adalah leader-follower. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukan bahwa simulasi multi-UAV dengan menggunakan Matlab/Simulink dan X-Plane telah berhasil digunakan untuk mengendalikan 3 UAV mengikuti topologi kooperatif.

Authors: Budiantoro Poki Agung , Fauzi Ahmad
Published: January 2020

LAPAN SAR-Microsatellite is the first LAPAN micro satellite being developed and planned to carry a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) payload.  Different from optical satellites that have been developed, LAPAN SAR-Microsatellite requires a lot more power. Solar array panels are needed to generate solar radiation into electrical energy which is used by all of subsystem satellite as energy to turn on and turn off all of components. More larger the area of solar array panel, more greater to the energy obtanied. Therefore, the needed of deployable solar array panel is a must caused by the dimension of the main body structur (MBS) are not large enough. Solar cells will experience a decrease in efficiency if they experience excessive heat. If there is a decrease in efficiency in the solar cell, it will have an impact on the decrease in power produced. The purpose of this study is to conduct thermal design on solar panels to maintain temperature according to their working temperature. Calculations are carried out on the temperature of solar array panel with various optical properties in the upper and lower panel that best which will be use using one nodal analysis methode According to the calculation result from all of the designs passive thermal control system on this study show that Design-5 is the best thermal control design which can be used for LAPAN SAR-microsatellite deployable solar array panel which α=0.24 at the top and ε=0.9 at the bottom surface of solar array panel.
Fantastic Educational Gaps and Where to Find Them: A Review of Research in Educational Equity and Equality
Authors: Hoang Anh-Duc
Published: January 2020

In today’s world, education is less being considered as an outcome, but more as a journey. As the adventurers, our students are facing more and more complex challenges. Previously, the socio-economic status of a student’s family seemed to be one of the biggest factors among inequality causes. Nowadays, the chaotic situation of today's VUCA world (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) is generating more and more types of inequity and inequality. Thus, the purpose of the study is to develop LERB - a simple model to classify inequity and inequality, as a stepping-stone to build a gap detection framework. Through a structured literature review, the study identified the interconnection between equity and equality, as well as their transition toward students as an individual or as a group(s) and subgroup(s). The study can also be adapted to examine the correlation between different categories of equity, as well as to brainstorm and propose remedies to tackle those gaps.

Inscriptiones Graecae Between Present and Future
Authors: Funke Peter
Published: January 2020

In the first part of my ‘workshop report’, I will provide information about the current state of the epigraphical editions of the Inscriptiones Graecae. Subsequently, I will focus on the plans for the upcoming years. In this context, questions pertaining to epigraphic research in new geographic regions, on the one hand, and the revision of past editions, on the other hand, are paramount. In the second part of my report, I will outline the current state and future perspectives of the digitisation of the IG.

Authors: Antonetti Claudia , Brunet Michèle , Paganoni Eloisa
Published: January 2020

This paper presents E-Stampages, a new digital tool for Greek Epigraphy. It publishes online a relevant number of squeezes from the collections of the Laboratory Histoire et Sources des Mondes Antiques (HiSoMA) of Lyon, the École française d’Athènes and the Laboratory of Greek Epigraphy of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. It stands out among similar resources for the accurate organisation of metadata, that is based upon ‘holistic’ concept of squeeze, and the 3D reconstruction. The paper describes the collaboration between the E-Stampages project, coordinated by Michèle Brunet, and the Venice Squeeze Project, coordinated by Claudia Antonetti. It highlights the shared methodologies and aims as well as the peculiarities of each of them.
GEI. Greek Economic Inscriptions (online)
Authors: Erdas Donatella , Magnetto Anna
Published: January 2020

In recent years the attention of modern scholars to ancient Greek economy has received impetus from a series of newly published documents of undisputed significance. The results have been a deeply renewed examination of consolidated theoretical positions, and a detailed analysis of specific aspects of the economic life of the polis. Within this framework the GEI project aims at providing an online collection of epigraphic documents related to the economy of ancient Greece. Some of these documents, already known or newly discovered, have never been collected in a selection of this kind. The project covers a period from the archaic age to 1st century BC. The selected texts are representative of the different areas of ancient Greek economy, and are marked-up using the EpiDoc encoding conventions. For each document all technical information has been provided along with existing critical editions, bibliography, a critical apparatus, an English translation and a commentary.
CEGonline: presentazione del progetto e stato dei lavori
Authors: Gonfloni Alessia
Published: January 2020

The project consists of a textual and bibliographical update of Peter Allan Hansen’sCarmina Epigraphica Graeca. The research is divided into two parts: a first section is dedicated to the bibliographical update of inscriptions already published by Hansen. There are many sections that differ as for lemmi, textual contributions, epigraphical, historical or archaeological information. In the second section of our research, indeed, we will catalogue the new inscriptions with archaeological, literary, historical, epigraphical, metrical and cultural data in order to provide a right interpretation of the epigraphy without leaving anything out. The inscriptions have been studied with in-depth analyses, drawings and considerations of an epigraphic nature. We have used excavation materials and contexts to provide a complete point of view of the main archaeological features. The cards are correlated with metrical and linguistic analyses, translations into Italian and other languages (if they are present), as well as all the main aspects of the epigraphical support. Finally, there is a discussion about the chronology of the epigraph and a detailed commentary that traces in many cases the history of the inscription’s study and analyses the main issues.
Una lettera di Filippo V agli Ateniesi di Efestia (Lemno)
Authors: Mari Manuela , Culasso Gastaldi Enrica
Published: January 2020

The epigraphic document on which this paper is focused is a letter of the Macedonian king Philip V to the boule and the demos of the Athenians of Hephaestia, on the island of Lemnos, which was found in 1938 in the area of the late Roman Telesterion of the sanctuary of the Kabeiroi. A new edition of the inscription is here offered, along with a detailed epigraphic, historical and linguistic commentary. The text is not entirely preserved, and some points of it are quite difficult to interpret. However, the document is extremely interesting, less for its possible connection with specific events than for the information it provides on several historical issues of a more general kind: the relationship between the Antigonid kings and Lemnos; the inner organisation and institutions of the community of the Athenians on the island; Philip V’s ‘religious policy’ as described by the king himself and by literary sources, and so on.
L’attività agonistica di attori e musicisti nelle iscrizioni greche del I e II secolo d.C.
Authors: Di Nanni Diva
Published: January 2020

The theme of the agonistic activity of actors and musicians in the Greco-Roman era is very broad and, consequently, offers multiple points of interest and research. Modern literature on the subject is varied, although it is not easy to find a text that, from a purely epigraphic point of view, deals with the subject in a complete way. The search was accompanied by a series of tables and lists that allow to summarise a whole series of results. The first table is organised based on the names of participants. This is followed by the index of specialities and festivals, with the specification of which speciality races were held in each location. A second table is organised to list the origins of the various artists but also the corresponding competition. Finally, it was deemed necessary to draw up a last list, in which all the artists were entered and for which, instead of specifying the single tender in which they were winners, the reference registration shows the broader term, starting from the more common one, known asperiodonikes.
