Heidegger’s thanatology
Authors: Brdar Milan
Published: January 2020

This article was writen to eleborate three teses: First, we have paradox that
Heidegger obtained the instant glory with publishing of Being and Time
(1927): But in due time it was impossible to understand this book as for its
main tenets. It remained untransparent if intepreteur is not ackowledged
with Heideggers papers writen from 1922. until 1929. Second thesis: full
understanding of Heidegger?s work in any of its parts asks for the look from
witihin the whole of its opus beforhand. Closely conected with it one must
have in mind Heidegger?s famous turn (Wendung) and its consequences for his
pihosophy of the second phase. Third: important issue of Heideggers work as
a trial for all Heidegger-interpretation is the sense of authenticity in
vast number of interpretation. It is a real philosophocal scandal, first,
for we have failed insurching for interpretation of sense oh human existance
than not lose a connection with Heideggers main theme: surching for the
sense of Being; second, we did not find the interpretation founded in
positive valuation of being towards death as ?most authentic? form for
Dasein. Closely related to this there is not article that demonstrates sense
and significance of relation to death for realization of program of sense of
being. Therefore, in the face of such a scandalous condition in the realim
of Heidegger intgerpretation, author elaborates the sense of ?the relation
toward death? on two ways: first, within the Beong of Time, and second, in
the wider context from 1922. until 1929. Formula tha is ?most authentic? for
everyday man litteraly could be not understandble within Being and Time, as
relevent on the meta-level of philosophical surching for the sense of being.
Its understanding become attainable by the aid of the lecture ?What is
Metaphysics? (1929). Also, full understanding in its methodological meaning
unfolds not on the level of everydayness but on the meta-level of
philosophy, and asks for full understanding of the reasons for the turn
(Wendung) as a prior and necessary condition that its starting point have
had in the very same lecture. At the end of the article author point out
that the ultimate aim of whole Heideggers work on the deconstruction of
nto-theological tradition of metaphysics to attain truthfull authenticity
through the juncture the man and Being in the Event (Ereignis).
Rawls’ theory of justice and the question of position of the people with disabilities
Authors: Jaksic-Arsic Milica
Published: January 2020

The aim of this paper will be to investigate Rawls? theory of justice
concerning the position of the disabled people. First of all, I will expose
his two principles of justice. Secondly, I will expose criticism of Eva
Kittay and Martha Nussbaum, who claim that our acceptance of Rawlsian theory
prevents us from achieving the just position of the people with
disabilities. After that I will examine one of the most successful upgrades
of Rawls? original theory that was established by Harry Brighouse. However,
Brighouse?s upgrade improves the position of only those individuals who had
become disabled due to natural reasons and not due to their own mistakes.
This is why I will, finally, tend to point out that the exclusion of those
individuals whose disability is a consequence of their own mistake is not
justified, since it incorporates a deontological assumption that is not
necessary for Rawls? theory of justice.
Visualizing the trade-offs between laser eye protection and laser eye dazzle
Authors: Freeman Oliver J. , Williamson Craig A.
Published: January 2020

Visual detection and color discrimination become more challenging tasks when laser eye protection (LEP) is worn. This is due to the reduced light transmission and wavelength-blocking characteristics of LEP filters. LEP can, however, provide valuable protection against laser eye dazzle—the temporary reduction of vision caused by visible wavelength lasers. To understand this compromise, a model has been developed to allow the visual impacts of LEP to be simulated and balanced against their dazzle protection capabilities. This model is able to use any digital image as a background scene, allowing for real-world visualizations of LEP and dazzle over a broad range of scenarios. The work is built from the CIECAM02 color appearance model and a modified CIE general disability glare equation, together with experimentally validated adjustments to improve the accuracy of this application. The resulting model will help to inform LEP procurement and will serve as an educational tool for LEP users.

Authors: Goodfellow John , O'Connor John , Pandit Hemant , Dodd Christopher , Murray David
Published: January 2020

The description of the Oxford Knee starts with an explanation of the function of mobile bearings in knee prostheses. An obvious advantage is that the areas of contact between the joint surfaces are maximised. In this chapter, we shall show that wear at the polyethylene surfaces is thereby minimised and that optimal kinematics can be achieved with minimal risk of loosening. We will discuss the biomechanics of the cementless components and problems that may occur with the tibia.

Authors: Goodfellow John , O'Connor John , Pandit Hemant , Dodd Christopher , Murray David
Published: January 2020

While it is important to ensure that all the necessary indications are met 1 , it is also important not to apply unnecessary contraindications. Some published lists of supposed contraindications have achieved wide acceptance without having much evidence to support them. We have recently argued with evidence that many of the suggested contraindications are unnecessary.

Authors: Modabbernia Mohammad Reza , Fakhrmoosavi Seyed Yaser , Akoushideh Alireza , Shal Alireza Ahadpour
Published: January 2020

This study seeks to present an interactive tool, which exploits the GUI related abilities in MATLAB, to investigate power electronic rectifiers operation. The present paper aims to show a flexible and extendable environment for steady state simulation of ideal controlled, uncontrolled, single-phase and three-phase power electronic rectifiers. This is accomplished at the presence of R, L and E loads with or without a flywheel diode. The easy application of our tool makes it feasible to be used by the teacher in the classroom. Also its short running time and the PSpice output netlist make it a remarkable alternative to the MATLAB PowerSim toolbox and PSIM software for studying ac-dc converters. Furthermore, in this paper some basic equations were introduced to analyze single and three-phase rectifiers. Because these equations are common between ac-dc converters, analyzing the different types of rectifiers will be easy for the students.

The penultimate issue refers that, the proposed program can cause a variety of single and three phase controlled rectifiers accompanied by various combinations of R, L and E loads to be simulated. Ultimately, obtained results are compared to another well-known simulatorâ€™s such as PSpice to verify their accuracy.

Published: January 2020

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is a famous NP-hard problem in the area of combinatorial optimization. It is utilized to locate the shortest possible route that visits every city precisely once and comes back to the beginning point from a given set of cities and distance. This paper proposes an efficient and effective solution for solving such a query. A modified crossover method using Minimal Weight Variable, Order Selection Crossover operator, a modified mutation using local optimization and a modified selection method using KMST is proposed. The crossover operator (MWVOSX) chooses a particular order from multiple orders which have the minimum cost and takes the remaining from the other parent in backward and forward order. Then it creates two new offspring. Further, it selects the least weight new offspring from those two offspring. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is compared to the classical genetic algorithm. Comparisons show that our proposed algorithm provides much efficient results than the existing classical genetic algorithm.

Authors: Purnamasari Dian Neipa , Sudarsono Amang , Kristalina Prima
Published: January 2020

The development of technology and communication also affects the level of security needed for digital image transmission. It is known that digital images now have important meanings in both communication and video conference. In this paper, we propose a security method for medical encryption in the form of images. The proposed method is implemented in the modified Identity-Based Encryption scheme. The encryption algorithm used is Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) to generate key pairs and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to generate symmetric keys and encrypt process. This method has been tested based on computation time, histogram analysis and statistical analysis. The results of the test were obtained that the proposed method was resistant to multiple attacks despite having slower computing time. The proposed compute time error percentage is 1.69% for key generator stages and 0.07% for total compute time at the encrypt-decrypt stage.

Authors: Sulaeman Eman
Published: January 2020

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji secara empiris pengaruh manajemen laba dan komposisi komisaris independen terhadap kualitas laba dan efeknya terhadap nilai perusahaan. Penelitian dilakukan terhadap perusahaan publik yang masuk dalam indeks LQ45 Bursa Efek Indonesia untuk periode 2012-2016. Manajemen laba diproksikan dengan discretionary accruals, kualitas laba diproksikan dengan volatilitas laba dan nilai perusahaan diproksikan dengan Price to Book Value (PBV). Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa secara langsung praktek manajemen laba memiliki pengaruh negatif terhadap kualitas laba maupun nilai perusahaan, indikasi income smoothing dilakukan dalam rangka menjaga persepsi stakeholders terhadap perusahaan. Sementara komposisi komisaris independen tidak memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap kualitas laba namun memiliki pengaruh negatif terhadap nilai perusahaan, dalam hal ini keberadaan komisaris independen dianggap tidak melakukan pengawasan secara efektif karena proses rekrutmen yang tidak objektif dan cenderung pemenuhan kewajiban perusahaan serta bersifat politis, hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya komisaris independen yang berasal dari purnawirawan dan tokoh politik. Peneltian ini juga menunjukan bahwa kualitas laba memiliki peran intervening dalam hubungan manajemen lana dan komposisi komisaris independen terhadap nilai perusahaan.
THE EFFECT OF TRANSFERING ISRAEL CAPITAL CITY TO JERUSALEM TOWARD INDONESIA MACRO ECONOMY
Authors: Sulistiyowati Liliek Nur
Published: January 2020

United States President Donald Trump has just issued a controversial policy by giving Jerusalem recognition as the capital of Israel. This controversial policy triggered a strong reaction from a number of countries, especially Islamic countries including Indonesia. Indonesia through President Jokowidodo strongly condemned the policy of moving the Israeli capital to Jerusalem because it would disrupt political and security stability in the Middle East region. In the midst of the political impact caused by President Donald Trump's policies also affected the global economy. The world stock exchanges reacted immediately with the existence of these policies, one of which was the fall of the stock market index in Japan and South Korea due to investor concerns. The impact of the policies implemented by President Donald Trump also affected the Indonesian economy. This policy will affect the financial markets and capital markets in Indonesia. Trump's policy triggered an increase in the US $ exchange rate against the currencies of other countries including the Indonesian currency. Some of the negative effects on the Indonesian economy were the increase in world crude oil prices. Indonesia is currently no longer an oil exporting country, so that with the increase in world crude oil prices it will provide a fiscal burden in the State Budget (APBN). Fuel subsidies in the state budget will increase along with the increase in world crude oil prices that occur. In addition to the impact on the rupiah exchange rate against the US $, Donald Trump's policy also affects the inflation rate and the SBI interest rate. Through 2018, Bank Indonesia has raised the SBI interest rate by 150 basis points (bps) or 1.5%. The BI Governor explained that one reason for changing the benchmark interest rate was US monetary policy. The determination of high SBI interest rates also had an effect on reducing inflationary pressures. This study aims to look at the influence of President Donald Trump's policies regarding the transfer of the Israeli capital to Jerusalem against Indonesia's macroeconomic indicators. Indonesia's macroeconomic indicators are seen from 3 variables, such as the inflation rate, SBI interest rates and the rupiah exchange rate against US $ Key words :  Donald Trump, inflation, SBI interest rates, exchange rates / exchange rates

Published: January 2020

This study was intended to develop and validate the Korean version of the Adult Career Concern Inventory. 147 items and 19 factors of the inventory were obtained based on open-ended questionnaires. A preliminary on-line survey from 336 employees was carried to collect data. Exploratory factor analyses excluded two factors such as person-environment fit and hobby and resulted into 115 items and 17 factors. To test the validity of the career concern inventory, the main on-line survey was carried and the questionnares were collected from 1091 employees. In order to check cross-validity of the scale, the total group was divided into two sub-groups: Group 1, 546 employees, and Group 2, 545 employees. The results of confirmatory factor analyses of Group 1 showed that the 16-factor model fit the data better after the vision-on-the-job factor was eliminated together with some items, which finally resulted in 94 items and 16 factors. These 16 factors were as follows: 1) retirement, 2) career management, 3) work-family balance, 4) interpersonal relations, 5) turnover, 6) health, 7) job performance stress, 8) establishing a business, 9) indecisive attitude, 10) promotion, 11) economic issue, 12) service, 13) marriage issue, 14) work sustainability, 15) competence improvement, and 16) lack of professionalism. The career concern inventory was significantly correlated with various criteria such as performance, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, career satisfaction, career commitment, mental health, life satisfaction etc. Finally, implications and limitations of this study and the directions for future study were discussed.

Fundamental Limitations of the Decay of Generalized Energy in Controlled (Discrete–Time) Nonlinear Systems Subject to State and Input Constraints
Authors: Selek István , Ikonen Enso
Published: January 2020

This paper is devoted to the analysis of fundamental limitations regarding closed-loop control performance of discrete-time nonlinear systems subject to hard constraints (which are nonlinear in state and manipulated input variables). The control performance for the problem of interest is quantified by the decline (decay) of the generalized energy of the controlled system. The paper develops (upper and lower) barriers bounding the decay of the system’s generalized energy, which can be achieved over a set of asymptotically stabilizing feedback laws. The corresponding problem is treated without the loss of generality, resulting in a theoretical framework that provides a solid basis for practical implementations. To enhance understanding, the main results are illustrated in a simple example.
PI Observer Design for a Class of Nondifferentially Flat Systems
Authors: Flores-Flores Juan Pablo , Martinez-Guerra Rafael
Published: January 2020

This paper presents a methodology and design of a model-free-based proportional-integral reduced-order observer for a class of nondifferentially flat systems. The problem is tackled from a differential algebra point of view, that is, the state observer for nondifferentially flat systems is based on algebraic differential polynomials of the output. The observation problem is treated together with that of a synchronization between a chaotic system and the designed observer. Some basic notions of differential algebra and concepts related to chaotic synchronization are introduced. The PI observer design methodology is given and it is proven that the estimation error is uniformly ultimately bounded. To exemplify the effectiveness of the PI observer, some cases and their respective numerical simulation results are presented.
Robust Extremum Seeking for a Second Order Uncertain Plant Using a Sliding Mode Controller
Authors: Solis Cesar , Clempner Julio , Poznyak Alexander
Published: January 2020

This paper suggests a novel continuous-time robust extremum seeking algorithm for an unknown convex function constrained by a dynamical plant with uncertainties. The main idea of the proposed method is to develop a robust closed-loop controller based on sliding modes where the sliding surface takes the trajectory around a zone of the optimal point. We assume that the output of the plant is given by the states and a measure of the function. We show the stability and zone-convergence of the proposed algorithm. In order to validate the proposed method, we present a numerical example.
Institutional changes in Hungarian environmental policy between 1998 and 2018
Authors: Kiss Emőke , Fazekas István
Published: January 2020

A country’s economic situation, its political establishment, and the prevailing environmental conditions have a significant impact on the institutional system required for efficient environmental protection measures. During our work, we reviewed the institutional changes and legislation regarding environmental protection which have occurred over the past 20 years as well as the role of changes in the government. In summary, it can be concluded that significant changes occurred during the past two decades. The names, organizational structures, operations, and scopes of ministries have undergone regular changes over the years. In Hungary, there has been no separate ministry of the environment since 2010, and this area is regulated only on the state secretary level. In contrast, in the V4 countries and the Carpathian Basin, environmental protection is regulated on the ministry level.

Published: January 2020

Nature, childhood, and ecopsychology can to be connected in the landscape of a schoolyard. The landscape architecture of the natural environments serves as a wide-open green space for outdoor activities, creating imaginative and inventive urban environmental layouts and connecting natural elements. School-based green experience, either indoor or outdoor, can be a physical and mental activity for children. In the case of individuals, it makes` easy to access a natural, green environment and to be actively involved in a natural setting, developing either social and/or cognitive functions and improving concentration and creativity. Therapeutic horticulture activity, such as planting indoor plants, can be a good experience for developing team work, the proprioceptive (kinase) receptors, affectivity, socialization, permanent care, and responsibility. The potential benefits of ornamental plants for children involved in public education include spending time in outdoor spaces, fresh air and sunshine, experiencing a sense of control, and being exposed to sensory stimulations. Physical and psychological education based on therapeutic horticulture activities in Romanian schools, such as planting and green care, can provide important opportunities for children to develop their attachment to nature, offering sustainable education solutions to an active part of the natural environment.

Authors: Nagy K. , Csomós A. , Dániel B. , Mara Gy.
Published: January 2020

Energy drink (ED) consumption, even mixed with alcohol, is popular among adolescents and young adults. The side effects of ED are attributed to their active ingredients and their cumulated effect. A cross-sectional study to identify university students’ ED consumption habit was realized. A small sample size (n = 10) experiment examining the effect of ED consumption on arterial blood pressure and heart rate was carried out.

From the total number of 240 interviewed students, 87.1% consumed ED at least once, and one third of them did so on a monthly basis. Students consume energy drinks mainly for its taste, very rarely for studying. Differences in consumption place preferences were observed between sexes, females preferring bars, while males the dormitory. We have demonstrated the increase of systolic blood pressure (SBP) for one type of energy drink in young and healthy volunteer students. Other changes in blood pressure and heart rate were not observed.

This study was aimed to develop a quick detection method to test aldehydes and ketones in textiles in order to control the quality of automotive textiles in the development process from fabric production to end-use in vehicles. In this study, a pretreatment of samples was applied to simulate the actual environment of textiles used in vehicles. Collected volatiles were reacted with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and then eluted with acetonitrile tetrahydrofuran. The eluent was analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography. Findings showed more than 90% volatiles could be detected in the established method; the lowest determination limit was 0.0297 mg/mL; and the lowest quantification limit was 0.0991 mg/mL, which meant sensitivity and capability of the method were high. Regression coefficients of linear models between volatile concentrations and chromatographic peak characteristics were >0.995, indicating that the method could effectively and efficiently determine the contents of volatiles in automotive textiles.

Authors: Shaver Kelly G. , Wegelin Jan , Commarmond Immanuel
Published: January 2020

This research describes the results of a national survey of entrepreneurial mindset conducted with 3,194 randomly selected individuals in a representative national sample. Several other measures of entrepreneurial personal characteristics appear in the literature. These include the Entrepreneurial Attitude Orientation measure (cf. EAO, Robinson, Stimpson, Huefner, & Hunt, 1991), the General Enterprising Tendency (cf. GET2, Caird, 1990), the test of Entrepreneurial Self-efficacy (cf. Chen, Greene, & Crick, 1998), and the Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile (cf. EMP, Davis, Hall, & Mayer, 2016). Valuable as these measures are, each has important limitations. This comprehensive study successfully addressed nearly all of those limitations.

Authors: Bisanz Andrea , Hueber Susanne , Lindner Johannes , Jambor Eva
Published: January 2020

This article provides an overview of challenge-based social entrepreneurship education in primary schools in Austria. The “YouthStart”-Programme “Empowering Each Child” is introduced as well as its impact on children. Research accompanying the programme shows that small challenges strengthen particularly the following skills and abilities of pupils: self-confidence and self-initiative, innovation, creativity, mindfulness, empathy, self-motivation and participation in society. Many of the challenges are based on the SDGs, so children are encouraged to learn to think and act in a sustainable way already at the beginning of their school career. The aim is to make young people aware of the fact that a change of people’s mindsets is needed worldwide, educating responsibly acting individuals, who do not only have their personal benefits in mind but also the needs of future generations.
The L2 motivational self system, L2 interest, and L2 anxiety: A study of motivation and gender differences in the Croatian context
Authors: Martinović Anna , Sorić Izabela
Published: January 2020

Studies have shown that second language (L2) motivation can have an impact on L2 learning processes. The aim of this study was to investigate gender differences in L2 motivation among Croatian university students from the perspective of the L2MSS. The results indicated that females were more motivated than males to learn English, had higher levels of interest in English, while differences in L2 anxiety were somewhat ambiguous. Females also demonstrated that their L2 motivation was linked to motives related to the avoidance of negative outcomes suggesting that females are perhaps more conscientious learners compared to males. These findings point to a complex motivational state among females, which may indicate important gender-based differences in language learning.
EFL teachers’ role in English: Letting the silent majority voice their words

Published: January 2020

With the advent of the global perspective on English, the live issues of the ownership and culture of English (Akbari, 2008; Seidlhofer, 2005) have begun to shake up numerous conventional notions of the field. In the wake of this landmark shift, this study attempts to probe EFL teachers’ cultural attitude toward prospective English words. To this end, identifying twelve highly Persian culture-specific words, the researchers devised an attitude questionnaire, which was administered to 351 EFL teachers to examine their right of cultural encoding (Kirkpatrick, 2014) as English users. The study concludes with granting a legitimate norm-overriding role to EFL teachers in order to gate-keep their required concepts in English.
Evaluation of the Possibilities of Using the Knowledge Capital Earnings Method (KCETM) for Depicting Intellectual Capital in the Annual Reports of Polish Companies
Authors: Bagieńska Anna
Published: January 2020

Intellectual capital is not sufficiently depicted in the annual reports of Polish companies, although it plays an important role in the operation and market valuation of enterprises. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the possibilities of using the KCETM method for depicting intellectual capital in the enterprise annual report – in particular, in the integrated reports. The KCE method developed by Lev has been modified in the area of normalized revenues, of which the evaluation method is not controlled by the audit, which results in its subjectivity. We adopted the category of gross profit generated by an enterprise from sales (including a large share of costs of earnings) which is reported by the enterprise. On the basis of the financial data from annual reports, we conducted the Knowledge Capital Earnings measurement of selected IT companies and this method was evaluated by comparing the results with the market and financials indicators of the companies and their Market-to-Book Values.

The conclusions from the analysis confirmed a strong correlation of intellectual capital (evaluated by modified KCETM method) with market indicators and return on equity. The method of intellectual capital evaluation of Market-to-Book Value did not give results related to market and financial indicators.

Therefore, based on the reported gross profit on sales, the KCETM method should be recommended as a measure in the integrated reporting of an enterprise.

Archaeological research in the area of the chateau park uncovered the relic of the Gothic church of St. Elisabeth, dated to the second half of the 13
th
century. It is a single-nave building with a rectangular finish (length 25 m, boat width 13 m, presbytery width 10.5 m). The church probably had an older predecessor - a wooden structure on a stone foundation, dating from the mid-13
th
century. At the same time, the church site was a burial place: a grave of a young woman and a 1.5-year-old child, dated 13
th
/14
th
century were found outside the presbytery wall. In the presbytery, there were 3 graves of men dating back to the 14
th
century. It is very likely that these are the Lords of the Wallenstein family. Archaeological research in graves in the Church of St. Elisabeth unearthed a small collection of animal bone remains. The occurrence of bones of young and mature cattle and domestic fowls, which are abundant in the archaeozoological assemblage, indicates the prevailing meat consumption of these animals. The butchering marks on their bones document removal of meat from the carcasses.

Background and purpose: The raising of the retirement age in the field of nursing care increases the need for successful aging strategies in the work environment. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the application of selection, optimization and compensation and their correlation with the working ability of nurses aged fifty and over in Slovenia.

Design/Methodology/Approach: The study encompasses 433 nurses over the age of 50 (M = 53.75±2.40 years) working in 13 hospitals across Slovenia. Two measurement instruments used in the field of nursing were adapted, the model of Selection, Optimization and Compensation (SOC) and the Work Ability Index (WAI). Data was processed using descriptive statistical methodology. The correlation between statistical variables was calculated using Spearman’s correlation coefficients. For a description of the functional relationship between SOC use and calendar age, linear and potential regression functions were used.

Results: We found out that the use of SOC is slightly growing with the calendar age of the nurses. The most used SOC element is “selection”. Calculated WAI for nurses is at the lower end of the classification category “good” (M = 36.98±6.46) There is a positive correlation between SOC and WAI (rs = 0.23), causality was not studied.

Conclusions: Increased use of SOC can lead to better work ability by nurses over fifty. Therefore, in the future, nurses will need to be trained and motivated to use SOC strategies.

In this study, optimal conditions to form cellulose-MgO nanocomposite with antibacterial properties were evaluated. Applying the Taguchi method, 9 experiments were designed and the effects of different concentrations of biopolymers cellulose (0.5, 1 and 2 mg/ml), MgO nanoparticles (2, 4 and 8 mg/ml) and stirring times (30, 60 and 90 min) on antibacterial activity of synthesized nanocomposites were assessed. The characterizations of products were investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS), raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The results showed that the nano-composite produced in the conditions of experiment 9 (MgO 8 mg/ml, cellulose 2 mg/ml and stirring time of 60 min) has the strongest antibacterial activity. The outcomes of both methods of colony forming units (CFU) and disc diffusion indicated that the antibacterial activity of cellulose-MgO nanocomposite was significantly higher than its components (P <0.05). Thermal analysis indicated improvement in the thermal stability of the cellulose biopolymer after the formation of the nanocomposite. Due to the improvement of the antibacterial properties of cellulose-MgO nanocomposite compared to its components, we can use it as a new antibacterial agent in the fields of pharmaceutical, medicine and dentistry.
