Purpose. The paper is aimed at evaluating the characteristics of short-period internal waves in different regions of the Avacha Bay in the Рacific Ocean concerning their hydrological and morphometric conditions. Methods and Results. The characteristics of internal waves are assessed through synthesizing the results of the in situ studies in the Avacha Bay in August-September, 2018, the high-resolution remote sensing data and the results of tidal modeling. The data of the in situ and satellite observations of internal waves were also directly compared. The results show that in the shallow part of the Avacha Bay, the waves, whose heights are from 10 to 15 m were observed. They constitute 10 % of the total number of cases. In the deep-water part of the bay, the internal waves are also often observed, but their maximum height does not exceed 10 m. The satellite images show 72 manifestations of short-period internal waves. Some of them spread to the coast with a tidal frequency from the generation source located around the 500 m isobath where the bottom abruptly slows down. Conclusions. The results of the investigation revealed a pronounced relationship between the wave trains recorded in the shallow-water area and the semidiurnal tidal dynamics. Analysis of the hydrological situation and the satellite images permitted to assume that the internal waves could be generated as a result of not only a barotropic tide collapse, but also due to the inertial oscillations of the frontal zone formed by the Kamchatka current meanders in the presence of a shallow sharpened pycnocline. Having been analyzed, the synchronous satellite and in situ observations made it possible to find out that the internal waves of the 5–8 m height were distinctly manifested on the sea surface in case the pycnocline depth was 10–20 m.

Purpose. The paper is aimed at describing the improved integrated model of the ecological-economic system "coast-bay" permitting to control the balance of rates of accumulation and destruction of the pollutants entering the sea with coastal runoff. Methods and Results. The model is based on the concept of mutual adaptation of the simulated processes’ deviations from their standard values under the influence of external forces. The average multi-year values of the simulated processes are used as a stationary state of the system. The scheme of the cause-effect relationships between the development of the biochemical processes in the marine ecosystem and the economic processes of consumption and reproduction of the marine biological and assimilation resources is proposed. The scheme contains the logical agents for managing the scenarios of these processes based on the criteria of the pollution and biodiversity levels of the marine environment. The system dynamic model was constructed using the method of adaptive balance of causes in which, in order to assess the influence coefficients, a new presentation of the normalized relations of the standard mean values is used. The current values of the simulated processes are used in the coefficient estimates. To test correspondence of the model scenarios to real processes, the computational experiments including the model of the ecological-economic system "coastal runoff-the Sevastopol Bay ecosystem" were performed. The observations-derived average multi-year values of phyto-, zoo-, bacterio-plankton, nitrates, ammonium, dissolved organic matter and detritus concentrations were used in the model. Conclusions. The results of the experiments confirmed possibility of managing the forecasted scenarios of the ecological and economic processes in accordance with the management concepts embedded in the model. The scenarios’ response to different variants of the external managing actions is shown, that makes such models a convenient tool for planning the nature-protection measures within the "coast-bay" systems.
Russian Estate and Europe: Diachrony, Nostalgia, Universalism
Authors:   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Bogdanova Olga A.
Published: December 2020

The book brings together articles by 24 authors, distributed into three problematic and thematic sections: a diachronic view of the Russian estate, estates of the Russian emigration, estates of European countries. A number of constant features of the Russian literary estate and cottages (storehouse of culture, moral space, the core of national identity, the concept of “non-city” in mass society, etc.) are highlighted in a comparative and diachronic analysis. The structure-forming potential and references of the “estate-dacha topos” in the foreign culture of Russian emigrants of the ХХth century disclosed in the works by I.A. Bunin, V.V. Nabokov, B.K. Zaitsev, L.F. Zurov, I.S. Shmelev, V.A. Nikiforov-Volgin of the 1920–1960s and in the Russian-language periodicals of France, Germany, Latvia, Estonia of the 1920–1930s. The most important topic of the book is the search for the origins of the Russian estate phenomenon in world culture, along with its involvement in the spectrum of similar phenomena in other national literatures (Greek, Polish, English, Belgian). The isomorphism of the estate space in Russia and other European countries allows us to speak of the “estate topos” as a universality. The publication is addressed to humanities professionals, primarily philo- logists, and at the same time to a wide circle of students and interested readers.
Granitogênese associada aos terrenos Granito-Greenstone de Brumado- Bahia, Bloco Gavião-Cráton do São Francisco: considerações petrogenéticas

Published: December 2020

Os terrenos granito-greenstone da região de Brumado estão inseridos na macrounidade geotectônica do Cráton do São Francisco, mais especificamente na porção sul do bloco Gavião, de idade arqueana. Foram identificados nove diferentes litotipos: o Greenstone-belt Brumado, ortognaisse Gavião, ortognaisse monzogranítico, ortognaisse Caraguataí, metassienogranito, metagranodiorito, leucogranito, granitoide Serra da Franga e metassienogranito porfirítico. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi realizar os estudos petrográficos e geoquímicos (especialmente os padrões ETRs) da granitogênese e do embasamento da região de Brumado, procurando caracterizar a relação genética entre esses diferentes tipos litológicos. Foi possível sugerir que o metassienogranito é resultante da fusão parcial do ortognaisse monzogranítico (por apresentar em campo relações de fusão parcial, mesmo padrão ETR e mesmo comportamento geoquímico dos elementos maiores e traço) e, o leucogranito é resultante da fusão parcial do ortognaisse Gavião (TTG Arqueano), quando também analisada esta comparação do comportamento dos elementos maiores e traço, além do padrão ETR. Tanto o granitoide Serra da Franga, quanto o metassienogranito porfirítico e o metagranodiorito são possivelmente granitoides intrusivos nos estágios finais de formação destes terrenos. O estudo da ambiência tectônica destes litotipos corroborou com os resultados obtidos através da análise dos elementos maiores, traço e ETRs e, revelou uma origem intraplaca para o sienogranito e para os ortognaisses monzograníticos. O ortognaisse Gavião, juntamente com leucogranito, revelou mesma origem, a de um arco magmático. O granitoide Serra da Franga, o metagranodiorito e o metassienogranito porfirítico também apresentam uma origem de arco magmático, relacionados a intrusões tardias comuns nestes tipos de terrenos.
Dinâmica dos parâmetros oceanográficos em um estuário impactado por atividades de mineração de carvão
Authors: Silvestrini Tiago A. M. , D´AQUINO Carla De Abreu
Published: December 2020

O estuário do rio Araranguá, no sul de Santa Catarina recebe as águas ácidas com baixo pH de parte da bacia hidrográfica onde ocorrem atividades de exploração de carvão há mais de 100 anos, que impactam a atividade pesqueira, turismo, diversidade e quantidade de espécimes da fauna e flora local. Este trabalho teve como objetivo relacionar a vazão, a salinidade, o material particulado em suspensão e o pH de modo a descrever um modelo qualitativo que possa ser reconhecido através da variação da vazão neste estuário impactado pelas atividades de mineração de carvão. Para tal, se avaliou resultados de trabalhos anteriores, levantamentos históricos de valores de pH, além da coleta de dados entre os anos de 2018 e 2019. O comportamento hidrodinâmico do estuário explica as variações de material particulado em suspensão e pH, em um estuário que varia de parcialmente bem misturado a cunha salina, respondendo diretamente as variações de vazão. A presença do sal, atua mais fortemente ou menos fortemente neutralizando o pH, conforme o padrão de mistura. A dependência da vazão, e consequentemente da pluviometria, governa os processos de pH e material particulado em suspensão. Ficam demonstradas as condições para decantação e exportação de flocos formados em consequência do impacto por Drenagem Ácida de Mina nos recursos hídricos superficiais para a zona costeira adjacente. Os valores de pH tendem aumentar suavemente conforme se afastam das fontes de acidez, devido a: a) diluição com aportes de águas não ácidas, b) neutralização das águas ácidas com a influência da maré e, c) ação de reações químicas no trecho estuarino, permitindo a floculação e decantação de componentes mais ácidos, removendo acidez da coluna d’água. Em condições normais, o estuário desempenha um papel filtrante muito importante, recebendo águas de baixo pH através do rio Mãe Luzia e entregando a zona costeira adjacente água com pH neutro. Este trabalho incentiva a discussão sobre as relações entre impactos da atividade carbonífera no ambiente estuarino e costeiro, até então pouco apontados, subsidiando possíveis ações preventivas a poluição neste ambiente.

Abstract Background: Many patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD)
have valvular heart disease requiring surgery. The optimal prosthetic
valve is not established in this population. We performed a systematic
review and meta-analysis assessing outcomes of patients with
dialysis-dependent ESKD who received mechanical or bioprosthetic valves.
Methods: We searched Cochrane CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE from
inception to January 2020. We performed screening, full-text assessment,
risk of bias, and data-collection independently and in duplicate. We
evaluated risk of bias using the ROBINS-I tool and certainty in evidence
with GRADE. Data were pooled using a random-effects model. Results: We
identified 28 observational studies (n=9857; 6680 mechanical and 3717
bioprosthetic) with a median follow-up of 3.45 years. Due to
confounding, 22 studies were at “high” and one at “critical” risk of
bias. Certainty in evidence for all outcomes, except for bleeding, was
very-low. Mechanical valves were associated with reduced mortality at 30
days (RR0.79, 95%CI[0.65,0.97], I2=0, absolute effect 27 fewer
deaths per 1000) and at ≥ 6 years (mean 9.7 years, RR0.83,
95%CI[0.72,0.96], I2=79%, absolute effect 145 fewer deaths per
1000), but increased bleeding (RR2.46, 95%CI[1.35,4.48], I2=69%
absolute effect 113 more events per 1000) and stroke (RR1.53,
95%CI[1.13,2.07], I2=0%, absolute effect 21 more events per 1000).
Conclusion: Mechanical valves are associated with reduced mortality, but
increased risks of bleeding and stroke. Given very-low certainty for
mortality and stroke, patients and clinicians may choose a prosthetic
valve based on factors such as bleeding risk and valve longevity.

Objective

The SGLT2 inhibitor
dapagliflozin reduced the risk of cardiovascular mortality and worsening heart
failure in the Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse-Outcomes in Heart
Failure trial (DAPA-HF). This report explores the effect of
dapagliflozin on incident type 2 diabetes in the non-diabetic cohort enrolled
in the trial.

Research Design/Methods

The subgroup of 2605
patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), no prior
history of diabetes, and a HbA1c of <6.5% at baseline was randomized to
dapagliflozin 10 mg daily or placebo. In this exploratory analysis, surveillance
for new onset diabetes was accomplished through periodic HbA1c testing as part
of the study protocol and comparison between the treatment groups assessed
through a Cox proportional hazards model.

Results

At
baseline, the mean HbA1c was 5.8%. At 8 months, there were minimal changes,
with a placebo-adjusted change in the dapagliflozin group of -0.04%. Over a
median follow-up of 18 months, diabetes developed in 93/1307
patients (7.1%) in the placebo group and 64/1298 (4.9%) in the dapagliflozin
group. Dapagliflozin led to a 32% reduction in diabetes incidence (HR 0.68, 95%
CI, 0.50-0.94; p=0.019.) More than 95% of the participants who
developed type 2 diabetes had prediabetes at baseline (HbA1c 5.7-6.4%.)
Participants who developed diabetes in DAPA-HF had a higher subsequent mortality
than those who did not.

Conclusions

In this exploratory
analysis among patients with HFrEF, treatment with dapagliflozin reduced the
incidence of new diabetes. This potential benefit needs confirmation in trials
of longer duration and in people without heart failure.
Self-Healing Potential of Porous Asphalt Concrete Containing Different Aggregates and Metal Wastes Through Microwave Heating
Authors: ATAKAN Mert , YILDIZ Kürşat
Published: December 2020

Asphalt is known as a self-healing material due to its temperature-related flow behavior. When damage occurs in asphalt concrete, bitumen can flow into cracks with heat and provide recovering by filling the cracks. Much of the current literature on self-healing pays particular attention to artificially heat asphalt concrete by several methods, including microwave heating. Although there is a growing body of literature that recognizes using steel fibers in microwave healing asphalt, there are no data on the use of aluminum fibers to improve microwave healing. This paper evaluates the microwave healing potential of asphalt concrete that contains metal wastes such as aluminum and steel shavings. Besides, the use of basalt and limestone aggregate (BA and LA) in asphalt concrete were evaluated. To achieve this, firstly, microwave absorption capabilities of BA and LA were determined. In the second step of the study, porous asphalt concrete specimens were prepared, and they were damaged by the indirect tensile (IDT) strength test at low temperatures. After that, damaged specimens were healed via microwave heating, and they were damaged again by the IDT strength test. In the end, the healing index of the specimens was determined as the proportion of healed specimen’s strength to the original. It has been found that BA is almost three times more microwave absorber material than LA, and asphalt specimens containing BA showed better healing performance. It has also been demonstrated for the first time that aluminum shavings might be a better option than steel shavings to accelerate microwave healing.
Conceptualising Human-centric Cyber Security in the Arctic in Light of Digitalisation and Climate Change
Authors: Klein Joëlle , Hossain Kamrul
Published: December 2020

The following article revisits existing scholarship on human-centric approaches to security in cyberspace and argues that a holistic understanding of cyber security in the Arctic must include discussion of the use of cyber technology in the everyday lives of individuals and communities, addressing both the ways such tools enable and undermine human security. Simultaneously, the article contextualises the Arctic as a region undergoing rapid change as a result of climate change and increased digitalisation and seeks to understand the consequent implications for human security. In light of these considerations, the article analyses the existing constraints and possibilities that cyber security and digitalisation pose for human security and revisits them from a humancentric perspective of cyber security. It also seeks to contextualise such security influences in relation to the role of climate change and its influence on the region. Finally, several examples are discussed to underline the interdependent implications of digitalisation and climate change from a human-centric perspective of cyber security in the Arctic.

Many primary education programs, including the updated educational program in Kazakhstan, involve the creation and implementation of thematic units to prepare younger students for research activities. This approach is reflected in the integrated method of teaching and learning in primary classes. However, in cases where the research-based pedagogical approach is not used, it has become an urgent problem because it cannot meet the interest of students. Therefore, this article intends to study theoretical works on the preparation of primary school students for research, conduct experimental work on a small experimental site, and consider specific results. In theoretical terms, such works as content analysis, synthesis, generalization, survey, and diagnostics were organized. Analyzing the experimental work on the stages of identification and formation. Based on methodological materials to prepare students for research, we offer percentages.
Mental Simulation Effects on Performance: Benefits of Outcome Versus Process Simulations in Online Courses

Published: December 2020

The present research compares the effects of mentally recreating the experience of realizing that a desirable goal had been achieved (outcome simulation exercise) with those of mentally recreating the actions that might lead to the desirable goal (process simulation exercise). It asked whether the performance benefits of process simulations over outcome simulations, which have been reported in students enrolled in face-to-face classes, would generalize to an online environment. The process simulation exercise was expected to foster attention to the antecedents of good grades, thereby improving class performance relative to the outcome simulation exercise which was intended to be merely motivational. College students from the Middle East, who were taking classes online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, participated. Type of simulation impacted students’ performance on assignments, but differently depending on the timing of the assessment. It did not influence behavioral engagement, midterm test performance, or predictions of performance before or after the test. Instead, process simulation enhanced students’ confidence in their predictions. These findings suggest that process simulation exercises may be useful learning props for activities that challenge students’ problem-solving skills (e.g., assignments) rather than engage well-practiced study habits (e.g., tests).
Pierre Monbeig and the Formation of Geography in Brazil (1925-1957)
Authors: Lira Larissa
Published: December 2020

This paper aims to present the exemplarity of an intellectual meeting between a French intellectual, trained in history and geography at the Sorbonne, France (before spending time in Spain during the beginning of his doctorate), and the “Brazilian terrain”. From his training to his work as a university professor in Brazil, what I want to characterize is a transnational intellectual context in the domain of the history of science, using geographical reasoning as a reference. However, before becoming aware of these intellectual processes, it should be said that at the base of this context lies the Brazilian space. This kind of reasoning as a proposed methodology is named here the geohistory of knowledge. In this paper, I seek to present this methodology and its theoretical and empirical results, focusing on how the construction of contextualization can be related to space.

School segregation has increased in Sweden during the last decades, and students from socio-economically disadvantaged groups ended up in schools with economic challenges as well as overall low goal achievement. The aim of this study is to illuminate how students in urban disadvantaged neighbourhoods relate to school. With an ethnographic approach, the study draws on fieldwork conducted in a junior high school, grade seven, using a combination of theories from Foucault and Goffman as theoretical frame for the analysis. The results indicate that the often described conflict between school and students from disadvantaged groups does not have to always occur. Teachers can use humour and youth culture to prevent the conflict to manifest. However, the central aspect of how students relate to school is the perceived position of disadvantage. Both school achievement and oppositional behaviour against school rules function as ways for students to distance themselves from this position. In conclusion, this study highlights the importance of teachers to counteract the conflict – a form of support – enabling students from disadvantaged groups to succeed in school and thus securing the opportunity for a more prosperous future.
Fenomena Kasus Bunuh Diri akibat Ijime pada Anak SMP di Jepang
Authors: Nasution Yenny Aristia
Published: December 2020

Ijime adalah sebuah fenomena yang terbentuk akibat ditemukannya fenomena seseorang yang mem-bully dan seseorang yang menjadi korban dari ijime tersebut. Di Jepang, ijime menjadi salah satu masalah serius dalam dunia pendidikan sejak tahun 1970-an dan alasan utamanya dilatarbelakangi oleh kenaikan angka persentase bunuh diri anak usia sekolah. Hal ini dapat dilihat pada persentase jumlah kasus ijime yang terjadi pada setiap tahunnya dan juga berdasarkan dari bentuk ijime sekolah yang sering dilaporkan ke media massa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bentuk bunuh diri yang diakibatkan oleh ijime pada anak SMP di Jepang, memaparkan alasan kasus bunuh diri akibat ijime yang banyak terjadi pada anak SMP di Jepang, dan memaparkan penyebab perilaku ijime yang mengakibatkan bunuh diri pada anak SMP di Jepang. Peneliti menggunakan teori strukturisasi yang dikemukakan oleh Anthony Giddens dalam menganalisis tindakan anak yang di-bully atau mendapat perlakuan ijime yang menyebabkan keinginan untuk melakukan tindakan bunuh diri. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode kajian pustaka. Dari hasil penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa ijime lebih banyak terjadi pada anak-anak di kalangan SMP, karena masa SMP adalah suatu masa anak-anak mulai menginjak usia remaja dan para korban ijime lebih banyak melakukan tindakan bunuh diri dengan cara menggantung diri dan terjun dari atas atap apartemen. Jenis bunuh diri yang banyak terjadi pada kasus ini adalah bunuh diri anomik dan jenis bunuh diri yang paling sedikit terjadi pada kasus ini adalah bunuh diri egoistik dan bunuh diri anomik, dan para korbannya banyak meninggalkan surat (suicide note) sebelum melakukan bunuh diri.

As the COVID-19 pandemic is steadily rising, there is an increase in psychological distress among the orthodontic patients regarding their ongoing treatment. Thus aim of the study was to assess the anxiety and perceptions among orthodontic patients regarding the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on orthodontic treatment. A closed end online questionnaire was sent as Google forms to 300 adult patients’ currently undergoing orthodontic treatment at a tertiary care center. 266 patients answered the survey with a response rate of 88.7%.  Online consent was taken before participation in the study and the survey was anonymized and did not contain any identifying information. The descriptive data included the participants' responses using frequency and proportions. The difference in the distribution of responses were compared using Chi-square goodness of fit test and the level of significance was fixed at p < 0.05. Level of anxiety between males and females was compared using independent t-test. Among the respondents, 126 were males and 140 were females.  The mean level of anxiety level among males was 4.28 ± 2.28 whereas for females it was 5.85 ± 2.48. The differences in the distribution of responses by the participants were statistically significant. The COVID-19 pandemic showed to have a greater impact on orthodontic appointments and anxiety levels of patients. Females showed greater anxiety than males for visiting the dental clinics. The greatest concern that patients reported was the increase in their treatment duration and they also recognized the importance of monthly orthodontic reviews.

Negative knowledge and experience of people with mental disorder (ODGJ) tend to form negative attitude. Many residents still discriminate, such as social isolation. This research aimed to determine peopleâ€™s attitude towards ODGJ in terms of meeting experienced and the sources of information they get. This research was observational analytic with cross sectional approach. The population of this research was all households in RW 9 Kelurahan Tanggung Blitar City of 199 households, with a sample size of 120 households taken by purposive sampling technique. Attitude data were collected using the Community Attitudes toward Mentally III (CAMI III) questionnaire and analyzed using the Spearman rho correlation test. The results of the analysis showed that attitudes of towards ODGJ in terms of sources of information they have obtained with p value 0,890, and attitudes of households with experience meeting ODGJ with p value 0,470, p value>0.05 which meant that there was no correlation between attitudes and information sources experience meeting ODGJ in RW 9 Kelurahan Tanggung Blitar City. Based on these results, it is necessary to carry out promotional activities in mental health services to form a positive attitude towards people with ODGJ.

Como una de las anomalías esqueléticas más frecuentes, la displasia del desarrollo de la cadera (DDH) se caracteriza por una gama considerable de patologías, desde una laxitud menor de los ligamentos en la articulación de la cadera hasta luxación completa. La inestabilidad clínica de la cadera ocurre en 1% a 2% de los bebés nacidos a término y hasta un 15% tiene inestabilidad de la cadera o inmadurez de la cadera detectable mediante el estudio de imágenes. Es primordial la evaluación periódica del recién nacido, a través de los exámenes médicos pertinentes, debido a que la DDH es clínicamente silenciosa durante el primer año de vida y puede tratarse de manera más eficaz si se detecta a tiempo y así, evitar consecuencias graves si no se tratan. Sin embargo, los programas de detección y las técnicas no son uniformes, y hay poca literatura basada en evidencia para apoyan la práctica actual, lo que genera controversias. Actualmente, las investigaciones afirman que muchas formas leves de DDH se resuelven sin tratamiento, sin embargo, hay una falta de acuerdo sobre los criterios de diagnóstico ecográfico de la DDC como enfermedad versus las variaciones de desarrollo. En el siguiente apartado literario se exponen los riesgos y consecuencias de una displasia de cadera que se presentan en los casos de pediatría.

La dermatitis seborreica es una afección muy común en infantes, sin embargo se puede presentar en diferentes estratos y edades de la población. Se clasifican en muchos tipos y algunos autores la asocian a hongos y a psoriasis. Puede afectar diferentes partes de la piel pero generalmente es más frecuente en cuero cabelludo, cara, orejas, cejas y dorso superior. La metodología de la investigación es de tipo revisión bibliográfica, apoyada en medios electrónicos como fuente primaria para la obtención de la información. Las conclusiones más relevantes es que el dermatólogo debe hacer una revisión exhaustiva al paciente, para determinar tanto el mejor tratamiento y evolución de la enfermedad. Su agente causal está asociado a las levaduras del genero Malassezia. Los tratamientos más comunes son vía tópicos, tanto solos como combinados, se han empleado y clasificados varios tipos de tratamientos como: Agentes no específicos, Corticoesteroides tópicos, Inmunomoduladores, Antifúngicos, Isotretinoína, Terapia con luz. Sin embargo, en los casos más graves se prescriben antimicóticos orales.

Authors: Kruidering Anne Martine , de Boode Bert , Jongebloed Hans
Published: December 2020

Ecoducts (also known as nature bridges) ensure that the environment in the form of flora and fauna can proceed on its journey undisturbed. These nature bridges usually help nature to cross man made obstacles like highways, national roads, railroads or canals.

The year 2006 was a very special year. That year the inauguration of the longest nature bridge took place, called Zanderij Crailo in The Netherlands. The total length of this passage for nature is 800 m. Two concrete bridge constructions with a width of 50 m each form part of this connection enabling undisturbed passage for nature between two natural habitats.
National Road B 31 – The Realization of a Privately Financed Project
Authors: Retzepis Ioannis
Published: December 2020

One of the first privately financed projects in Germany was the national road B 31 East between Freiburg and Kirchzarten. This infrastructure project not only helps realize an efficient traffic concept but permits a further development of the infrastructure of the city of Freiburg as well.

As a direct result of the project, the overground East-West traffic is drastically reduced. This is achieved by directing the main traffic underground. Two double-cell tunnels (850 m and 1230 m) and two noise insulation galleries (275 m and 640 m) were planned. These have been built in the inner city part of the project. The outer city part of the infrastructure project consists of five bridges including a number of noise insulation walls.

The tunnels have been constructed using both the ‚cover and cut’ as well as the ‚cut and cover’ method. High security standards have been applied including a very sophisticated traffic control system.

These aspects, which are of importance in densely populated areas, are outlined in the paper.

This paper presents essential life time considerations for infrastructure facilities. The considerations are the basis for developing a scientific concept for life time harmonisation. This concept is introduced and the developed research procedure is explained. The terms infrastructure and infrastructure facilities are defined. A uniform life cycle model and the different life time types are described. Factors that govern the life times are analysed for the combination in a life time prognostication model. Examples are presented for road bridges.
The durability of timber bridges
Authors: Barbier Vincent
Published: December 2020

Most of people mean that timber bridges are not very durable. However to ensure good durabilities, compatible with the requirements of the eurocodes, two elements are necessary : an adapted design and a diffusion of knowledge of this forgotten material. The protection of the wood of structure must indeed be the major objective of the designer.
Hysteretic Model Development and Seismic Response of Unbonded Post-Tensioned Precast CFT Segmental Bridge Columns
Authors: Chou Chung-Che , Hsu Chih-Po
Published: December 2020

The aim of this research was to investigate experimentally the durability of the unbonded posttensioned, precast concrete-filled tube (CFT) segmental bridge columns subjected twice to cyclic loading. In addition, a stiffness degrading flag shaped (SDFS) model was developed based on selfcentering capability and stiffness degradation of the columns. The SDFS model overcomes the deficiency of prediction using a flag shaped (FS) mode, which self-centers with constant stiffness. The experimental and analytical results show that (1) the deformation of the column in two tests is similar but energy dissipation of that is significantly reduced in the second test, and (2) the SDFS model can predict the cyclic response of the column better than that using the FS model. A parametric study, performed on systems subjected to earthquake records, shows that increase of displacement ductility is significant for structures with low period and medium yield strength ratio.
