Effect of Polymeric Microparticles Loaded With Catechin on the Physicochemical Properties of an Adhesive System
Authors: Albuquerque NLG , Neri J Rabelo , Lemos MVS , Yamauti M , de Sousa FFO , Santiago SL
Published: March 2019

The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG)–loaded/poly(D-L lactide-co-glycolide) acid (PLGA) microparticles, evaluate their effects on degree of conversion and release assay of adhesives, and subsequently to examine the resin-dentin bond strength of two EGCG formulations (free EGCG or loaded into PLGA microparticles) applied as a pretreatment or incorporated into an adhesive system. The formulations were prepared according to a PLGA:EGCG ratio of 16:1 using the spray-drying technique. The size and polydispersity index were determined by light scattering in aqueous dispersion. The degree of conversion (%DC) and release assay were assessed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, respectively. Subsequently, 45 third molars were divided into five groups (n=9) according to the different EGCG application modes and prepared for bond strength testing in a universal testing machine. Results demonstrated no statistically significant difference among the DC means after the PLGA microparticles were loaded with EGCG. For the release assay, the 1.0% PLGA/EGCG group presented better results after being elected for use in the bond strength test. The resin-dentin bond strengths of the experimental groups after 12 months of water storage were significantly higher than in the control group. EGCG could improve the durability of the resin-dentin bond over time and promote a new era for adhesive dentistry with the concept of controlled release.

Authors: HARIMI ABDAL CHAQIL
Published: March 2019

Pembelajaran bahasa pada dasarnya dibuat agar siswa dapat menguasai empat keterampilan bahasa. Keterampilan bahasa tersebut terdiri dari keterampilan mendengar, keterampilan berbicara, keterampilan membaca, dan keterampilan menulis. Oleh karena itu, pembelajaran maharah bahasa Arab harus dilakukan dengan berbagai macam variasi agar tujuan dapat dicapai dengan baik.  Hal demikian juga harus dilakukan ketika terdapat peserta didik yang memiliki keterbatasan atau siswa difabel. Demi terwujudnya kelas yang inklusif, seorang guru harus dapat memiliki sifat sensitif agar terciptanya kelas yang berkeadilan bagi mereka.

Artikel ini mencoba untuk memberikan beberapa variasi pembelajaran maharah bahasa Arab bagi siswa-siswa yang memiliki keterbatasan, khususnya adalah siswa tunanetra yang dihasilkan dari beberapa pengalaman penulis dan beberapa kajian teori yang telah ditemukan mengenai pembentukan kelas yang inklusif. Sehingga diharapkan dapat menjadikan kelas lebih mudah untuk dijangkau oleh peserta didik tunanetra.

Published: March 2019

El uso de herramientas informáticas para resolver cálculos en cualquier área de estudio es esencial para reducir el tiempo dedicado a realizarlas, dando lugar a la inversión de tiempo en el análisis del problema para un número "n" de soluciones al problema propuesto, pudiendo realizar iteraciones múltiples hasta alcanzar un resultado óptimo. El objetivo de este artículo es utilizar una de las herramientas informáticas más simples, como el programa Microsoft Excel, para crear un código en Visual Basic que permita la resolución de estructuras planas, sujetas a fuerzas de corte, fuerzas axiales y momentos flectores, calculando así las reacciones y desplazamientos en los nodos de la estructura. La macro se basó en el análisis de estructuras con el método de rigidez directa, donde se crearon códigos para obtener la matriz de rigidez de cada elemento, la matriz de rigidez global de la estructura ensamblada a partir de la matriz de rigidez de cada elemento, la matriz de fuerzas de empotramiento, la matriz de fuerzas nodales, y la matriz de desplazamientos de cada nodo. Cada una de las matrices se muestran en una hoja de cálculo, de modo que para fines académicos, el usuario podrá visualizar cada una de las matrices.
“O morir en la porfía o ser conde de Belflor”: la ambición de Teorodo en Lope de Vega y en Pilar Miró
Authors: Carmona Alba , Boadas Sònia
Published: March 2019

Cada aproximación al texto de El perro del hortelano (1613) de Lope de Vega nos revela nuevos matices del protagonista masculino. La conocida figura de Teorodo, el secretario de la condesa Diana de Belflor, parece resistirse a cualquier taxonomía y se revela como un personaje con matices, dudas y contradicciones. La profundidad psicológica que le otorga el Fénix se vislumbra especialmente a través de su ambición y arribismo fluctuante, atributos que conforman su compleja personalidad. A partir del detallado análisis de los rasgos propios de la caracterización de Teorodo en la comedia lopesca y en la adaptación cinematográfica de Pilar Miró (1996), este artículo pretende poner de manifiesto de qué manera y con qué objetivos se remodeló sustancialmente la caracterización del secretario en la versión de la directora madrileña.

El propósito de este artículo es analizar tres autobiografemas que aparecen en las memorias de la infancia Tiempo de inocencia (2013) de la escritora mallorquina Carme Riera. El análisis de estas escenas textuales primitivas — sacadas como recuerdo del pasado personal del escritor y convertidas en unidades narrativas en el presente de la escritura— nos permitirá apreciar los recursos que el autor-narrador Carme Riera emplea en la construcción de la identidad de su personaje. El primer autobiografema en análisis es la (re)figuración de la escena del nacimiento y la fabulación del linaje. El segundo es la escena del libro y el aprendizaje de la lectura. El tercero y último autobiografema analizado hace referencia al cuerpo y al tema del erotismo.
Notas sobre la escritura de la libertad en el Humanismo italiano
Authors: Varo Zafra Juan
Published: March 2019

El concepto de libertad política es una de las claves fundamentales del humanismo cívico italiano. Los estudios de Baron, Skinner, Pocock y Hankins entre otros han examinado la significación de la libertad política en este periodo convulso de la historia italiana. Este artículo analiza, a partir de algunos textos decisivos, el proceso histórico por el cual la libertad pierde su conexión política con el modelo de vida republicano y urbano y se refugia en una propuesta vital ociosa, cortesana y contemplativa. Se estudian las conexiones del concepto de libertad con otros conceptos como virtud, república, vida activa, ocio y contemplación, así como las influencias platónicas y aristotélicas.

Uso problemático de las TIC en adolescentes
Authors: Díaz-Vicario Anna , Mercader Juan Cristina , Gairín Sallán Joaquín
Published: March 2019

La investigación analiza los hábitos de uso de las TIC por parte de los adolescentes españoles de entre 12 y 17 años, identificando los usos problemáticos en los ámbitos académico, social y familiar. Empleando una metodología mixta concurrente, se aplicaron 906 cuestionarios a adolescentes, se realizaron 135 entrevistas a jóvenes, profesores y orientadores, y se organizaron 5 grupos focales en los que participaron tanto jóvenes como miembros de la comunidad educativa. Los resultados confirmaron que las TIC tienen una amplia presencia en la vida cotidiana de los adolescentes españoles y sugieren que su uso extensivo genera impactos negativos en el ámbito académico, social y familiar de los jóvenes. No se puede hablar de un uso problemático generalizado aunque sí como un fenómeno a estudiar, para el que –además– deben contemplarse acciones de prevención y concientización.

Published: March 2019

An initial step in flood hazard mapping is hydrological modelling. We present a recent river flood modelling approach in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) for small ungauged catchments of drainage area up to 32 km2. To estimate peak flow of required probability in small catchments, we use the rational method. The paper focus is GIS based procedure for producing the runoff coefficient map for BiH from the DTM and land cover map. For validation of the peak flow modelling results in small ungauged catchments we use diagrams of peak flow per catchment area (specific runoff) versus catchment area in medium and large gauged catchments. The results indicate agreement in specific runoff for 100 and 500 years return period compared to reference runoff in gauged catchments and a mild drop in specific runoff for 20 years.

This research is aimed at developing a supplementary reading material to fulfill students' need in one of the multimedia study program at Mangelang, Indonesia, for learning reading. The design of this research is Research and Development. This research was oriented to the product development, and it was conducted in two main stages; (1) exploration stage and (2) product development stage. The exploration stage includes (1) literature review, (2) field study, and (3) need analysis. Meanwhile, the product development stage describes (1) the prototype development, (2) experts’ judgment, and (3) pilot. This research was conducted in a vocational secondary school involving an English teacher, two material experts, and students. The findings show that the existing textbook used to teach reading contains general English material and it is less specific to be used for the students at the program. Therefore, it implies that there should be supplementary reading materials for the teacher to develop reading to meet the needs of these students.

Published: March 2019

Efforts to produce wheat in Indonesia need to be supported by the availability of cultivation technology suitable for agro-climate conditions in Indonesia, including the use of proper population density and fertilization dosages, which are fundamental for obtaining maximum yields. This study was aimed to determine ideal population density and dosage of urea for optimum grain yield of wheat in Lombok Island. The experiment carried out at Aik Bukak, Central Lombok at elevation of 400 m asl, to observe the growth and yield of two varieties of wheat, Nias and Gladius, with 4 plant population densities (133, 160, 200, and 250 plants m-2) and 3 dosages of urea fertilization, 200, 300, and 400 kg ha-1. Data from this study indicated that Lombok Island has the potential for growing wheat with quite dense population density of 250 plants m-2. This density yielded higher, 1.74 tons ha-2, due to the increased number of kernel per unit area without reducing individual kernel weight. The use of urea 300 kg ha-1 exhibited the best growth and yielded 1.32 tons ha-2.Keywords: fertilization, population density, wheat varieties

Genetic information plays an important role in plant selection. This research was aimed to obtain genetic information on pattern inheritance of yield and yield component characters of two crosses population of birds chili. The research used biparental mating design consisted of 40 plants of parents population (P1 and P2), 40 plants of first generation (F1) and reciprocal (F1R) populations, 100 plants of backcross populations (BCP1 and BCP2), and 300 plants of second generation population (F2). Scaling test and joint scaling test indicated the presence of gene interaction (epistasis) in two crosses population. Estimates gene effect also showed that fruit weight character in crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C174 was controlled by duplication epistasis, while yield per plant character in crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C291 was controlled by complementary epistasis. All characters of both crosses populations had high broad sense heritability, but the characters in crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C174 had medium to high narrow sense heritability, while the characters in crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C291 had low to medium narrow sense heritability. Genetic difference between parents seemed to affect gene action of a character, in which yield per plant, number of fruits per plant, fruit weight, and fruit length characters in crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C291 with small genetic difference were more controlled by the action of non additive gene than crosses population of IPB C145 x IPB C291 with large genetic difference.Keywords: epistasis, gene action, genetic difference, heritability, yield

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of growth retardants on flowering and yield parameters and shelf life of spanish jasmine. The experiment comprised of eleven treatments each replicated thrice was executed following the principles of randomized block design. The treatments included foliar spray of CCC @ 1000, 1500 and 2000 ppm, alar @ 1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm, ethrel @ 1000, 1500 and 2000 ppm, pruning and untreated control. In this study, the application of CCC 1500 ppm exerted favourable influence and enhanced the flower bud characters viz., flower bud length (2.98 cm), flower stalk length (2.36 cm) and total length of the flower (5.34 cm). The yield and yield attributes viz., hundred flower buds weight (9.90 g), flower buds yield plant-1 (4.23 kg), flower buds yield plot-1 (33.84 kg) and flower buds yield hectare-1 (14.1 t ha-1) were also found to be the maximum in the plants treated with CCC 1500 ppm. The plant growth retardants did not show any significant effect on shelf life of flowers.
Phytoremediation and Agricultural Productivity – A mini review
Authors: Akomolafe G. F. , Onwusiri K. C. , Adokpa F. A.
Published: March 2019

The productivity of Agricultural land has reduced drastically particularly in highly industrialized and oil producing Countries as a result of incessant discharge of toxic compounds from many human activities into the environment. Plants are described as effective organisms for remediating polluted environment mainly due to their exceptional biological features. Some of the popular, modern and commercialized processes that have been used over the years in decontaminating polluted sites are not eco-friendly and are expensive. This is why more emphasis is laid on less-expensive and eco-friendly technique which uses green plants called phytoremediation. This review described phytoextraction, phytostabilization, rhizofiltration, phytodegradation and phytovolatilization as various techniques of phytoremediation with examples of plants that are used for this purpose. It also clearly describes healthy soil as promoter of crops yield and improving the lively hood of man and other organisms in the ecosystem.
Experimental investigation of two-phase relative permeability of gas and water for tight gas carbonate under different test conditions
Authors: Wan Teng , Yang Shenglai , Wang Lu , Sun Liting
Published: March 2019

Currently, tight carbonate gas reservoir has received little attention due to few discoveries of them. In this study, gas–water two-phase relative permeability was measured under two different conditions: High Temperature High Pore Pressure (HTHPP – 80 °C, 38 MPa), as well as Ambient Condition (AC), using whole core samples of tight gas carbonate. Relative permeability curves obtained at HTHPP showed two contrary curve profiles of gas relative permeability, corresponding to the distinctive micro-pore structure acquired from CT-Scanning. Then, based on Klinkenberg theory and a newly developed slip factor model for tight sandstone, slippage effect under AC is calibrated and the overestimation of gas relative permeability prove up to 41.72%–52.34% in an assumed heterogeneity. In addition, relative permeability curves obtained at HTHPP switch to higher gas saturation compared to that under AC with the rock wettability change from water-wet to less water-wet. And the wettability alteration is believed to be caused by charge change on mineral surface.
Convex modeling for optimal battery sizing and control of an electric variable transmission powertrain
Authors: Ma Zetao , Murgovski Nikolce , Egardt Bo , Cui Shumei
Published: March 2019

This paper provides convex modeling steps for the problem of optimal battery sizing and energy management of a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle with an electric variable transmission. Optimal energy management is achieved by a switched model control, with driving modes identified by the engine on/off state. In pure electric mode, convex optimization is used to find the optimal torque split between two electric machines, in order to maximize powertrain efficiency. In hybrid mode, optimization is performed in a bilevel program. One level optimizes speed of a compound unit that includes the engine and electric machines. Another level optimizes the power split between the compound unit and the battery.

Terror nicht Horror
Authors: Bickenbach Matthias
Published: March 2019

Hideo Nakata's film version of THE RING sets up a remarkable constellation of technical and spiritualist media that has re-established the genre of psycho-horror films. The film is not just about a ghost story but, unlike the novels by Kôji Suzuki, about a primeval scene of the fear of media that initiates the eventuation of a "video curse", thereby raising the issue of the technology of fear as a history of media.
Die politische Bedeutung der pornografischen Kehre
Authors: Perniola Mario , Maclaren Sara Fiona
Published: March 2019

The text is looking for a political explanation of the turn in Western attitude to pornography which has taken place since the sixties and even more so since the seventies. More surprising than the liberalization of pornography itself appears the massive pornographic self-exposure even by minors since the turn of the millennium. In addition to the reasons for this extraordinary permissiveness, the paper questions the role of technical and audiovisual media in this social development.
Die künstliche Intelligenz des Sinns1 Sinngeschichte und Technologie im Anschluss an Jean-Luc Nancy
Authors: Hörl Erich
Published: March 2019

The paper presents Jean-Luc Nancy's outline of a history of sense and especially his thinking of exteriorization as an expression and working-through of the technological condition which characterizes the cybernetic culture of machines and objects. Furthermore, the paper suggests to ground the enthusiasm for the open and external (which is dominant in philosophical politics since 1950 and culminates in Nancy's work) in the supplementary, prothetic and transcategorical logic of the technical world.
Meta / Dia Zwei unterschiedliche Zugänge zum Medialen
Authors: Mersch Dieter
Published: March 2019

In media philosophy since Benjamin, the concept of medium is conceived in terms of »translation« or »transport«. In a similar vein, Christoph Tholen has brought the literal sense of »metaphor« as »meta-pherein« into focus. In my paper I argue that Tholen's approach misses the »meta« (»in the middle« or »beyond«) of »metaphor«, corresponding to the Latin »trans«. This is contrasted with the greek »dia« that allows the development of a performative notion of medium, which orients itself at material practices of transition.
Actio, Narratio und das Gesicht der Dinge
Authors: Steiner Uwe C.
Published: March 2019

Am Beispiel des Krugs und anderen, wandernden und tückischen Objekten der Literaturgeschichte soll die wechselseitige Voraussetzung von Offen- und Geschlossenheit in eine Konfiguration von Handlungstheorie, Figurationstheorie und Narratologie übersetzt werden. Die dabei verfolgte Frage lautet: Wie literarisch handeln offene Objekte? Nach Luhmann und Latour lässt sich das Handeln an Konzepte der Beschreibung koppeln: Sei es, dass sich Kommunikation zur Handlung simplifiziert und erst so einem Akteur zugerechnet werden kann, oder sei es, dass zeichenhafte Referenz, Zuschreibung und Protokollierung maßgebliche Stränge in dem Aktionszusammenhang menschlicher und nichtmenschlicher Wesen ausmachen. Solche übersetzungen zwischen Erzählungen und Handlungen verfolgt dieser Beitrag anhand ausgewählter Beispiele aus der Literaturgeschichte.

Working with the example of the jar and other, wandering and deceitful objects of literary history, this paper tries to translate the reciprocal presupposition of openness and closure to a configuration of theory of action, figuration and narration. It thus deals with the question, how literarily open objects act. According to Luhmann and Latour, action can be connected to concepts of description: Be it that communication is reduced to action and only thus attributable to an agent, or that symbolic reference, attribution and recording account for significant strands in human and non-human contexts of action. Drawing upon selected examples from literary history, the paper pursuits such translations of narration into action and vice versa.

A Case of Descemet’s Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty in a failed Penetrating Keratoplasty
Authors: Singh Sanjay Kumar , Yadav Reena , Sharma Ashmita
Published: March 2019

Background: Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) is an evolving option for failed penetrating keratoplasty (PK) as it has shown promising results compared to repeat PK.

Case description: A 22 years young gentleman presented with gradual diminution of vision in the left eye (LE) for six months following therapeutic PK for a perforated fungal corneal ulcer. His best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) was 6/60 in LE. Slit-lamp examination of LE revealed circumcorneal congestion with full thickness corneal graft with micro and macrobullae, diffuse stromal edema, DM folds and seven well-buried sutures. Intraocular pressure was 20 mmHg in the right eye whereas it could not be assessed in the left eye. The diagnosis of LE failed PK was made and the patient underwent DMEK. At four months postoperative follow up visit, BSCVA improved to 6/9. This is the first reported case of DMEK after a failed PK in a  young patient from Nepal which was successfully treated without any complications.

Conclusion: DMEK has a higher potential for better visual rehabilitation compared to DSEK and PK. It has also proved its efficacy in the treatment of endothelial graft failure following PK as it is a less invasive procedure.

Published: March 2019

We propose factor models for the cross-section of daily cryptoasset returns and provide source code for data downloads, computing risk factors and backtesting them out-of-sample. In “cryptoassets” we include all cryptocurrencies and a host of various other digital assets (coins and tokens) for which exchange market data is available. Based on our empirical analysis, we identify the leading factor that appears to strongly contribute into daily cryptoasset returns. Our results suggest that cross-sectional statistical arbitrage trading may be possible for cryptoassets subject to efficient executions and shorting.
Analysis of Customer Emotion from Video based Feedback of a Product
Authors: E Bharathi , M Bagyalakshmi , G Ambika , G Priyanka
Published: March 2019

Due to the high levels of competition in a global market, companies have put more effort on building strong customer relationships and increasing customer satisfaction levels. Now-a-days due to technological improvements in information and communication technologies gives a highly anticipated key contributor to improve the customer experience and satisfaction in service episodes is through the application of video analytics, such as to evaluate the customer’s emotions over the complete service cycle. Currently, emotion recognition from video could be a difficult analysis space. One of the foremost effective solutions to deal with this challenge is to utilize each audio and visual part as two sources contained within the video knowledge to form an overall assessment of the emotion. The combined use of audio and visual knowledge sources presents further challenges, such as determining the optimal data fusion technique prior to classification. In this paper, we propose an audio–visual emotion recognition system to detect the universal six emotions (happy, angry, sad, disgust, surprise, and fear) from video data. The detected customer emotions are then mapped and translated to provide client satisfaction scores. The projected client satisfaction video analytics system will operate over video conferencing or video chat. The effectiveness of our proposal is verified through numerical results.
