One-dimensional and two-dimensional Green–Naghdi equations for sloshing in shallow basins
Authors: Jalali Mohammad R. , Borthwick Alistair
Published: February 2017

This paper presents a verified model of weakly non-linear wave sloshing in shallow basins, based on level I Green–Naghdi (GN) mass and momentum equations derived for mild-sloped beds. The model is verified for sloshing of an initially sinusoidal free surface perturbation in a square tank with a horizontal bed. The model is also used to investigate free surface sloshing of an initial Gaussian hump in closed square basins, over horizontal and non-uniform bed topographies. Analysis of the free surface slosh motions demonstrates that the model gives predictions in satisfactory agreement with the analytical solution of linearised shallow water theory obtained by Lamb. Discrepancies between GN predictions and linear analytical solutions arise from the effect of wave non-linearities arising from the wave amplitude itself and wave–wave interactions.
THE ARGUMENT ON A STUDENT’ THESIS OF DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION
Authors: Agustiningsih Dheka Dwi , Permatasari Andalusia Neneng , Alhamuddin Alhamuddin
Published: February 2017

This paper discusses the arguments found in a student’ academic writing, namely a thesis. It attempts to show how an argument is built in a student’s thesis in the Department of Islamic Education, Faculty of Tarbiyah and Education, Islamic University of Bandung by drawing upon the theory of Toulmin (2003). The results of this research show that verse, hadith, and exegesis become the starting point of the argument to be presented in the thesis. However, there is a discrepancy between the verses used as warrant’s claim and the data on the student’s thesis. Consequently, the argument becomes unstable because of the inconsistencies of argument elements. The implication of this research is concerned with the supervision process of a student’s thesis that should give more emphasis on how the student makes his or her arguments correctly.

Authors: Supriadi Dedi , Sa’ud Udin Syaefudin
Published: February 2017

The implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in higher education institutions plays an important role in realizing the competitive advantage, especially in the realization of the three pillars of higher education. In order for the implementation of ICT in higher education institutions to be effective, adequate support from infrastructure, human resources, and leader and organizational commitment is needed. The research focuses on and aims to describe the effectiveness of ICT implementation in student academic services, covering ICT policies and programs, ICT implementation strategies, ICT implementation, and the effectiveness of ICT implementation in student academic services. In addition, it attempts to formulate a hypothetical model of ICT implementation in student academic services. The research adopted the analytical-descriptive method through qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentary analysis. Afterwards, the data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, inference drawing, and verification. The research took place in Bandung Institute of Technology. The findings show that: The ICT policies and programs are based on the implementation of the three pillars of higher education (education, research, and community service); the strategies give emphasis on coordination patterns; ICT implementation in academic services is realized through e-learning (online, blended learning, video conference), academic information system, and digital library; the effectiveness of the ICT implementation is analyzed based on the realization of the program at the level of unit (decision-focused approach), performance achievement (goal-oriented approach), and student satisfaction (user-oriented approach) in terms of tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. It is recommended that ICT implementation in academic services should be able to realize the competitive advantage of the implementation of the three pillars of higher education, which is in accordance with the institution’s vision, missions, and strategic goals, supported by the availability of infrastructure, human resources, funds, managerial and organizational commitment, and periodical evaluation and monitoring.
Heroínas de una Sociedad Misógina. Teresa de Jesús Atrincherada en la Morada. Mística en el Arte Contemporáneo
Authors: Navalón Blesa Natividad , Mañas García Alejandro , Cháfer Bixquert Teresa
Published: February 2017

Este artículo es el primero de una serie de reflexiones en las que nuestro objetivo principal es la recuperación del espacio que no debió perder nunca la mujer. En él hacemos una revisión de aquellas mujeres heroínas, combatientes en una sociedad misógina, que han sido pensadoras influyentes en la labor creadora desarrollada por mujeres artistas contemporáneas. Este texto está dedicado a santa Teresa de Jesús, una heroína, en la que numerosas artistas han puesto su mirada como referente de empoderamiento y han dirigido su trabajo plástico hacia el misticismo, generando una conexión entre arte y espiritualidad. Recogemos una selección de artistas que se han servido de la mística, el dolor, la morada, el silencio, las visiones y, por último, el éxtasis en su proceso creativo, para dar voz a un problema de género en esta sociedad y para trabajar en la lucha por la recuperación de un espacio que siempre debió pertenecer a la mujer. Artistas que, a través de su trabajo, reivindican un hueco en una sociedad falocentrista. Ellas son un claro ejemplo de lo que hemos denominado mujeres heroínas en una sociedad misógina.

Published: February 2017

Background: In the present day world the expenditure on medicines is very high. Most of the people in developing countries find it difficult to afford expensive medicines. One of the measures to cut down the expenditure on medicines is to use generic drugs. Hence the study was taken up to know the awareness, attitude and preference for generic drugs among medical and non medical persons.Methods: The study was done on 290 participants. 60 medical interns, 30 doctors, 50 nurses, 50 non medical staff (clerks and attenders) and 100 patients were included. They were given a questionnaire to know the awareness and knowledge on generic drugs, willingness to prescribe (among doctors) and use it (non medical staff and patients).Results: This study showed that all medical persons- doctors, interns and nurses knew about generic drugs whereas 60% of non medical staff and 95% of the patients were not aware about it. All doctors had good knowledge about generic drugs and 80% prescribed it always. 70% of the patients depended on what doctors prescribed for them and never asked for generic/ branded drugs in particular. 70% non medical staff preferred it only sometimes.Conclusions: The awareness among non medical persons is poor than medical persons among the surveyed population. Hence adequate measures should be taken to increase awareness and knowledge among public so that they become imperative enough to ask their doctors to prescribe generic drugs.
Indígenas do Deserto e do Sertão nos Contextos de Formação de Nacionalidades, Século XIX
Authors: De Matos Izabel Missagia
Published: February 2017

Resumo: imperativa para a formação dos contingentes dos países recém-criados na América Latina ao longo dos Oitocentos, a homogeneização nacionalizadora implicou em uma visão

integradora segundo a qual os povos indígenas deveriam se misturar à população negra e mestiça, mais do que com o resto da população responsável por tecer as diretrizes e ideais “civilizatórios” imperantes. Os territórios ocupados pelos indígenas, então considerados “vazios”

e “regiões não habitáveis”, constituem, para o campo de estudos subalternos, lugares “limites”, onde o humano se funde com “bestial”, justificando assim as campanhas de extermínio movidas contra os indígenas ali existentes. O argumento desenvolvido neste artigo

destaca e analisa um ponto de inflexão entre os diferentes mitos nacionais latino-americanos representado pelas mulheres brancas e indígenas enquanto matrizes capazes de conceber e

reproduzir, ao longo dos séculos, as novas nações civilizadas.

Mata que é Corcunda! Os índios do Ceará na guerra de independência do Piauí
Authors: Costa João Paulo Peixoto
Published: February 2017

Resumo: este artigo visa investigar o envolvimento militar dos índios do Ceará no contexto da independência do Brasil, quando foram recrutados para conter o foco de resistência portuguesa no Piauí em 1823. A análise da participação indígena nesses acontecimentos, quando se viam na iminência de serem enquadrados em novos estatutos jurídicos por conta

dos movimentos liberais portugueses, revela tanto o seu papel para as autoridades do novo país quanto sua luta pela defesa da condição de vassalos livres e de outras antigas garantias. Refletiremos acerca dos significados indígenas da independência brasileira, do antilusitanismo

e das diferentes relações estabelecidas com outros agentes, componentes de sua atuação bélica e cultura política.

Nagrobki przy kościele Wniebowzięcia NMP i św. Jakuba Apostoła w Szadku
Authors: Czyżewski Bartłomiej
Published: February 2017

Pierwsze przykościelne cmentarze były zakładane około V–VI w. n.e. w pobliżu świątyń, w podziemiach których spoczywały szczątki świętych. Z biegiem czasu cmentarze takie zaczęły powstawać przy każdym kościele. Grzebania zmarłych przy kościołach zaprzestano dopiero w XVIII w. w związku z licznymi epidemiami, które swoje źródła miały na tych nekropoliach. Rozpoczęto zakładanie cmentarzy poza miastami i likwidację przykościelnych miejsc pochówku. Przykościelny cmentarz przy kościele pw. Wniebowzięcia NMP i św. Jakuba Apostoła w Szadku został założony już w okresie średniowiecza i funkcjonował przez następne stulecia. Ze źródeł wynika, że nekropolia działała jeszcze w drugiej połowie XIX w., a być może nawet i na początku XX w. Obecnie, przy kościele w Szadku znajduje się siedem tablic i nagrobków oraz pozostałości kamieniarki nagrobnej, których nie da się przypisać do konkretnych grobów. Zachowane tablice i nagrobki należały do: Józefa Formańskiego i Heleny Formańskiej, Wiktorii Rolińskiej, Józefy Maliszewskiej, Józefa Kozieła, Marcelego i Cecylii Kozłowskich, Teodory Skupińskiej oraz Jana Kiełkiewicza. Osoby te zamieszkiwały Szadek oraz okoliczne wsie i zostały pochowane pod koniec XIX – na początku XX w.
Legaty na rzecz bractw kościelnych w Szadku w latach 50-tych XIX w.
Authors: Szkutnik Piotr
Published: February 2017

W Szadku w okresie staropolskim powstało kilka bractw religijnych funkcjonujących przy parafii rzymskokatolickiej. Wierni zainteresowani czynnym uczestnictwem w różnych formach kultu zrzeszali się w konfraterniach, czując potrzebę integracji w ramach lokalnej społeczności. Bractwa religijne otrzymywały od fundatorów i darczyńców fundusze na swe funkcjonowanie. W latach 50-tych XIX w. Bractwo Bożego Ciała i Pięciu Ran Pana Naszego Jezusa Chrystusa, zwane też Bractwem Pięciorańskim, oraz Bractwo Różańca Świętego otrzymały w testamentach zapisy na odprawianie mszy za duszę darczyńców. Legaty te zarejestrowano w formie aktów notarialnych notariuszy szadkowskich. Treść tych dokumentów stała się przedmiotem edycji w niniejszym artykule jako kolejne źródło do dziejów Kościoła w Szadku.

Kościół parafialny pw. Świętych Apostołów Piotra i Pawła w Grodzisku w dekanacie uniejowskim
Authors: Jarno-Cichosz Katarzyna
Published: February 2017

Kościół parafialny pw. Świętych Apostołów Piotra i Pawła w Grodzisku to ciekawy przykład wzniesionego na początku XVII wieku z fundacji szlacheckiej obiektu sakralnego wyróżniającego się na tle krajobrazu architektonicznego regionu szczególnymi okolicznościami powstania. Obiekt wzniesiony został staraniem Jana Rudnickiego, kasztelana sieradzkiego, który zdecydował się na budowę świątyni pod koniec swojego życia, w podeszłym wieku, wiedząc, że oprócz pięciu córek nie doczeka się już żadnego potomka. Początkowo kościół posiadał skromniejszą formę – dzisiejszy wygląd zyskał w wyniku kilku kolejnych przebudów, które zostały przeprowadzone w XIX wieku. W XVII wieku świątynia ograniczała się jedynie do prostokątnej nawy, półkoliście zamkniętego prezbiterium oraz zakrystii. Stanowi ona przykład udanego połączenia form architektonicznych zakorzenionych w średniowieczu, nadal niezwykle popularnych na terenie dekanatu uniejowskiego, z elementami renesansowego wnętrza. Omawiany obiekt świadczy o pozycji i zamożności fundatora oraz jego trosce, by nawet po śmierci ostatniego Rudnickiego pamięć o tej rodzinie nie uległa zatarciu.
Transakcje radnego miasta Uniejowa Stanisława Pieczyńskiego w świetle najstarszych akt notariusza warckiego z 1809 roku
Authors: Szkutnik Piotr
Published: February 2017

W 1808 roku wprowadzono na ziemiach polskich instytucję publicznego notariatu. Pierwsze transakcje zawarte w 1809 r. w Uniejowie zapisano w księdze notarialnej powiatu warckiego. Większość z akt zarejestrowanych w 1809 r. dotyczyła inwestycji jednego z najbogatszych mieszczan uniejowskich Stanisława Pieczyńskiego. S. Pieczyński zakupił wówczas 20 składów stajowych ziemi przy drodze niewieskiej oraz browar w Uniejowie. Kupił także zrujnowany dom mieszczan Ptaszkiewiczów oraz od burmistrza Uniejowa posesję dawniej należącą do miejscowego duchownego. Pieczyński przekazał również w postaci legatu znaczną sumę na utrzymanie szpitala w Uniejowie, w którym przebywali najubożsi mieszkańcy miasta. Suma ta została ulokowana na hipotece domu burmistrza. Transakcje S. Pieczyńskiego świadczą o jego zamożności pozwalającej na inwestowanie w nieruchomości i działalność dobroczynną.
