Published: August 2021

The millennial era is an era of digital technology in which people are close to technology and have instant access to information. This study investigated students' perception of the characteristics of an effective English language teacher in the millennial era. This study used a qualitative approach and used a descriptive qualitative design and took place at a private university in Yogyakarta. The participants were four students of the English Language Education Department (ELED) batch 2016. In collecting the data, the researcher interviewed the participant. The findings showed that in socio-affective skills, an effective English language teacher in the millennial era should enhance students' motivation to learn, create a good classroom atmosphere, have good relationships with the students and other teachers, and understand students' character. In pedagogical knowledge, an effective English language teacher should give feedback, have a valuable ability to explain the lesson, ensure students' understanding of the lesson. They also should have a lesson plan, utilize and apply technology, allow students to write a reflection, and control class activities. In knowledge subject matter, an effective English language teacher should be knowledgeable and master English well. Lastly, an effective English language teacher should have personality traits such as intelligent, caring, friendly, disciplined, creative, kind, patient, humorous, responsible, open-minded, and professional. The findings implied that to teach students in the millennial era effectively, teachers should possess and maintain the characteristics of an effective English language teacher.

Authors: Kannan Mohanraj , L. G. Aishwarya Lakshmi , P. G. Rajakumar , R. Selvaraj
Published: August 2021

Background: Preterm babies with abnormal doppler velocimetry during second and third trimesters of pregnancy pose various early neonatal morbidities like recurrent hypoglycaemia, feed intolerance and prolonged hospital stay. In our study we compared the incidence of hypoglycaemia, feed intolerance, risk of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) and length of hospital stay among preterm babies with abnormal doppler flow to the gestational age matched preterm babies with normal umbilical artery doppler flow velocimetry.Methods: 30 preterm babies who had abnormal umbilical artery flow during their last antenatal doppler scan were included as study group and gestational age matched 30 preterm babies who had normal doppler study had been taken as controls. The incidence of hypoglycaemia, feed intolerance, NEC, length of hospital stay had been compared between two groups.Results: The case group with abnormal umbilical artery doppler had increased incidence of hypoglycaemia (15 of 30 babies in case versus 5 of 30 babies in control) which was statistically significant. Feed intolerance, necrotizing enterocolitis and length of hospital stay were all significantly increased in preterm babies with abnormal umbilical artery doppler when compared to preterm babies with normal umbilical artery doppler flow.Conclusions: Preterm babies with abnormal umbilical artery doppler were at increased risk of hypoglycaemia, feed intolerance, NEC and prolonged hospital stay. Knowledge on this is important to monitor closely for hypoglycaemia, gradually increase feeds and explain parents about expected morbidities which can increase the length of hospital stay in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
Low serum zinc and magnesium–a possible risk factor for first episode Simple febrile seizures in children between 6 months to 5 years of age
Authors: L. G. Aishwarya Lakshmi , Kannan Mohanraj , P. G. Rajakumar , R. Selvaraj
Published: August 2021

Background: Febrile seizure is the most common type of seizure in children. The incidence of febrile seizure is 5-10% in India. There are multiple aetiologies like high grade fever; genetic predisposition, viral infections and trace elements deficiency like iron, zinc, magnesium and calcium are postulated to be risk factors for developing febrile seizures. Recent studies had shown there is a significant association between low serum zinc, low serum magnesium levels and febrile seizures in children.Methods: This was a case control study with 40 children in each group. Children aged 6 months to 5 years with first episode of simple febrile seizures who attends the out-patient department/emergency room (OPD/ER) were included in case group consecutively and 40 children with acute febrile illness without febrile seizures were included in control group. Serum zinc and magnesium levels were estimated for all the children along with other investigations after proper consent from parents. Using statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) software, independent sample t test was used to analysis the observations between the two groups. Normal lab reference value of serum zinc was 60-120 μg/dl and serum magnesium was 1.7-2.5 mg/dl.Results: The incidence of febrile seizure was high (37.5%) in children between 1-2 years and male (55%) children had increased incidence when compared to female children in case group. The children with febrile seizure had significantly low levels of serum zinc with mean value of 35.08 μg/dl (±8.56) when compared to control group with mean value of 70.23 μg/dl (±13.41) and serum magnesium level in case group was 1.35 mg/dl (±0.29) versus 1.68 mg/dl (±0.42) in control group, which was also statistically significant.Conclusions: The incidence of febrile seizure was high in children between 1-2 years of age with male preponderance. The serum levels of both zinc and magnesium is significantly low in children with febrile seizure pointing a need of further studies in role of supplemental zinc and magnesium in this age group to reduce the incidence of febrile seizures.

Constant-Volume Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium for Thermal Energy Storage: Proposal of a New Storage System for Concentrated Solar Power Plants
Authors: Bamoshmoosh Abdullah , Valenti Gianluca
Published: August 2021

The development of thermal energy storage systems is key to increasing the deployability and reliability of concentrated solar power plants. Previous work from the authors studies the possibility of exploiting vapor-liquid phase change in closed and constant volumes as a thermal energy storage mechanism because of the higher heat transfer coefficients of the phenomenon with respect to solid-liquid phase change energy storage systems. The objective of this paper is to propose a new thermal energy storage condition based on vapor-liquid systems for concentrated solar power plants. The reference case of the Khi Solar One power plant in Upington, South Africa is taken. Results show that increasing the critical temperature of the storage fluid allows for increased temperature differences and higher volume-based energy storage, while the decrease of critical pressure allows lower mechanical stresses on the energy storage system. The use of high critical temperature fluids such as ethylene glycol allows for an increase of the volume-based energy storage of around 95% at same pressure conditions with respect to the base case. The use of low critical pressure siloxanes such as D6 results in a decrease of around 26% in the volume-based energy storage. The use of D6 on the other hand leads to a substantial decrease in the maximum pressure of the storage system, which drops from 8.2 MPa to 1 MPa, allowing the use of cheaper and less complex equipment. Both cases lead to a relevant increase in the maximum storage temperature, increased of 130 K and 55 K respectively.
Influence of Injection/Suction on Mixed Convection Flow Across a Vertical Cone Saturated Porous Medium with Double Dispersion and Chemical Reaction Effects
Authors: Meena Om Prakash
Published: August 2021

We examined how injection/suction impacts the flow characteristics for mixed convection across a vertical cone saturated porous medium in the presence of double dispersion and chemical reaction effects. We perform suitable transformations to convert the nonlinear system of partial differential expressions into a system of non-dimensional form and received dimensionless equations solved numerically by the bivariate Chebyshev spectral collocation quasi-linearization method. We explain the outcomes of the flow characteristics over various variables through diagrams and numerical benchmarks. We also establish precision verification of the chosen numerical technique through a comparison with prior published computations and found to be in great assent. The residual analysis section also illustrated which unblocks convergence of the present results.

Published: August 2021

Experiments were carried out for the recovery of phenols from phenol fraction procured from tar distillation plant of Visakhapatnam steel plant by two stage alkali treatment, to study the effect of two-stage alkali treatment on the yield of phenols from phenol fraction. The results of the present investigation showed that two-stage alkali wash gives better yields of phenols compared to single stage alkali wash of the same phenol fraction with the same strength of alkali solution (NaOH). Also it is shown that maximum yield of phenols could be obtained with 35% strength of alkali. In the first stage 70% of 35% strength solution was used while in the second stage treatment 30% of the same strength solution was used. Improvements in the recovery efficiencies of phenols were found to be 47% more than those reported earlier in the single-stage extraction studies for the same strength of alkali solutions.

Potencial para fontes alternativas de água em uma residência unifamiliar no município de Içara-SC
Authors: Cauduro Flávia , Bilesimo Ana Cláudia Marcelino
Published: August 2021

A água é um recurso fundamental contudo finito e a sua racionalização é uma preocupação global. Uma opção para redução do consumo de água potável é a implementação de alternativas de abastecimento em edificações. Sendo assim, estudou-se o potencial de economia de água de uma residência unifamiliar a partir da utilização de águas pluviais e cinzas. A habitação situa-se em Içara/SC, possui cinco moradores e área de cobertura servida de calhas igual a 283,37 m². Realizou-se caracterização de consumo através de tabelas de frequência de uso e análise de contas de água da concessionária, resultando em uma média mensal de consumo igual a 13.371,43 L e valor diário per capita de 89,14 L. A distribuição percentual de uso mostrou que a geração de água cinza é menor que a demanda da mesma, porém, com a análise da precipitação, viu-se que a captação de água pluvial é capaz de suprir toda demanda por água de reuso. O percentual de economia máximo ficou em 38% com utilização de água cinza e pluvial e 57% com a utilização somente de água pluvial. Assim, optou-se pelo uso exclusivo de água pluvial. O reservatório foi dimensionado por três métodos: método de Rippl, método da Simulação e programa computacional Netuno. O primeiro método não gerou resultado pois o volume pluviométrico captado é maior que a demanda da edificação. No segundo e no terceiro métodos os valores de reservatório para aproveitamento máximo variaram sendo, respectivamente, 30.000 L e 6.000L. Uma cisterna de 5.000L foi escolhida ponderando os métodos, a disponibilidade comercial e a área de terreno para instalação. A escolha gerou economia de água potável entre 5.348,57 L e 7.488,00 L mensais, o que representa entre 40% e 56% do consumo total da residência.
From Solidarity to Individualism in the Contemporary Couple
Authors:   PhD, Scientific researcher, Institute of Sociology, Romanian Academy, Bucharest, Romania, Apostu Iulian
Published: August 2021

The contemporary society highlights a general type of marital behavior, still influenced by traditional sets of values. Today, the influence of the families of origin in the selection of the conjugal partner, in the marital decision and, often, in the way of organizing the functions of the family is obvious. Moreover, the general economic situation makes living with parents an alternative to consider. In this sense, the premises of modern marital relations are very difficult for some. At the same time, analyzing the national statistical data, we can see that the indicators that show the traditionality in the distribution of domestic roles show that over 50% of respondents consider that household chores should be done by women. Surprisingly, perhaps, if we compare the statistical data of the Gender Barometer from 2000 and 2018, we notice that, if in the first barometer, the share of those who believed in the female specifics of domestic roles was 63%, in 2018, this opinion amounted to 53% (Grumberg, Rusu, Samoilă, 2019). Beyond the general attitude, a new set of behaviors identified in young couples gradually legitimizes a new form of conjugal manifestation - relational individualism. The study aims to functionally evaluate these new tendencies of manifestation, analyzing the effects of relational individualism within the Romanian contemporary couple. The research bases its methodology on the utilitarian myth, that of the mutual fulfillment of needs, it is of a qualitative nature and the research instrument is the semi-structured interview.
About an Ethical Interpretation of the Law. Resolution of the Civil Action during the Criminal Trial

Published: August 2021

From the provisions of art. 25 para. 1 and art. 397 para. 1 of the Criminal Procedure Code, as in the previous regulation, it results that the legislator took into account an element not only of civil justice, but also of social ethics, when it was established that the criminal court also rules, through the same decision, on the action civil. Basically, the two provisions stated above express the same idea, although this repetition was not absolutely necessary. From the current regulation of solving the civil action during the criminal trial, we notice that the legislator has maintained a series of general principles such as: cases of ex officio settlement of the civil action, dependence of the civil action on the way the criminal action is settled, the disjunction of the civil action from the criminal proceedings, the failure to resolve the civil action as a distinct procedure from that of admitting or rejecting the civil action, resolving the civil action only by the court, and the interdiction to resolve it during the criminal investigation, which, however, were adapted to a new legislative vision.

Published: August 2021

Violence against women, regardless of their nature, remains a scourge that societies have been struggling with for a very long time and which, unfortunately, for various reasons are difficult to eradicate. Among the many side effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, it has become clear that the current health crisis provided a breeding ground for an increase in domestic and intra-family violence. In France, the incidence of violence against women is estimated to have increased by 30% during the first round of containment. Our study aims to analyze the situation in the French system, to present the legislative framework in this area, but also the institutions with a major role in the fight against violence.

Published: August 2021

The book “Asistenţa socială şi religiozitatea la persoanele cu handicap” [Social work and religiosity for people with disabilities], authored by Carman Gabriela Mândrilă Lăzăreanu, published by Lumen Publishing House from Iasi, Romania, in 2020, aims from the beginning to be an important guide for young generations, developing both the secular dimension of social work and the religious dimension, specific to theological environments. We welcome the publishing of the book, especially since social discourses and, unfortunately, those of some Romanian public personalities blame the vulnerable condition of the people who depend on financial benefits and other types of intervention and support services. In this sense, the book clarifies from the beginning the importance of changing mentalities, norms, and how these people are perceived, for a solution to the problems they face. Approached in terms of cause and effect, the volume focuses on the social, psychological, medical, and legal dimensions that define the situation of disability in order to build an objective framework for assessing and supporting the condition of disability.

Authors: Setiaji Waskito , Handoko Adelia , Elfiah Ulfa
Published: August 2021

Disorders of concentration in workers can cause workplace accidents due to decreased ability to focus attention when working. The annual work accident rate is estimated at 250 million with 1.2 million people dead. One of the causes of disturbances in worker concentration is the physical factor in the form of noise. One of the high intensity noise is found in the wood cutting industry in Arjasa District, Jember. The aim of  this study is to analyze the effect of noise on the concentration level in wood cutting workers in Arjasa District, Jember. This is an analytic observational research with cross sectional study. The respondents amounted to 32 people taken with purposive sampling. The measurement of noise was using a sound level meter. The measurement of concentration level using Trail Making Test (TMT) A and B. Concentration level measurement is done when the respondent has worked for 30 minute. The results of the study showed that the majority of respondents were aged between 25-28 years (28.1%) and had worked less than the same as 2 years (53.1%). The average noise intensity of the wood cutting area was 97.5 dB (A) and the loading and unloading area was 76.2 dB (A). Average noise intensity of the wood cutting area exceeds the noise threshold value. The level of concentration of workers in the wood cutting area is lower than the loading and unloading area workers. The results of data analysis using the independent t test indicate that there are differences in the mean TMT B score: TMT A between respondents who work in noisy and non-noisy environments (p=0,004). There was a noise effect on the concentration level in wood cutting workers in Arjasa District, Jember Regency.

Analysis of Factors Affecting the Contamination of Entamoeba sp. cyst and Soil-Transmitted Helminths egg on Dug Well Water
Authors: Fahmi Iza Billa , Sulistyaningsih Erma , Darmawan Dion Krismashogi
Published: August 2021

Dug well water is often polluted by fecal waste containment such as septic tank and pit latrine system due to its distance. The common pathogenic parasites found in fecal waste containment are E. histolytica and Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH). The port de entry of both parasites is ingestion of contaminated food or water by fecal materials. This study was aimed to analyze factors affecting the existence of Entamoeba sp. cyst and STH egg on dug well water in Bungatan Village, Situbondo. This observational analytic study used cross-sectional approach, carried out 30 respondents in Bungatan Village, Situbondo. Entamoeba sp. cyst and STH egg were examined using sedimentation method, the distance of fecal waste containment to dug well measured by measuring tape. The characteristic of fecal waste containment and dug well was observed using questionnaires. The results showed 100% fecal containment used pit latrine system, 100% had an incomplete well standard, 66,7% had unstandardized distance with fecal waste containment. Entamoeba sp. cyst and STH egg were not found on all water samples. The soil condition near the dug well (acidity, temperature, moisture, and sunlight intensity) and physical condition (temperature) of dug well water were inappropriate to the development of Entamoeba sp. cyst and STH egg. The dug well's component and its distance to fecal containment did not affect Entamoeba sp. cyst and STH egg existence in all dug well water. The physical soil condition near the dug well and the temperature of dug well water were inappropriate to the development of both parasites.

In this article, I would like to draw attention to the cognitive potential of an image, showing how significant the role of visual imagination in mathematics is. I will focus here mainly on the possibilities of visualizing irrational numbers.Our starting point is the intuitive case of the square root of two, observed in the diagonal of a square. We will also discuss a simple, geometrical method of constructing the square roots of all integers. Next, we move over to the golden ratio, hidden in a regular pentagon. We will use a looped, endless animation to visualize the irrational number φ. Then we will have a closer look at the famous number π and discuss two different attempts to find its visual representation. In the last two sections of the article, we consider the possibility of indicating rational and irrational real numbers and also grasp the whole set of real numbers.All the issues discussed in this article have inspired visual artists to create artworks that can help to understand relatively advanced mathematical problems.
Wszystko albo nic — abstrakcyjna geneza sztuki
Authors: Bandura Agnieszka
Published: August 2021

In this paper I present the specific issues of contemporary abstract art, which negated the classic mimetic categories of resemblance and original (originary), but nevertheless does not lack any reference (Goodman). I focus on the questions of the beginning, history and evolution as well as the contemporary genres of abstract art (Kandinsky, Malevich, Reinhardt and others), trying to show that the answers to the questions very often take form of panaesthetic and universal statements (“everything”) or exclusionary negations (“nothing”). Describing the contemporary abstract art I base on two — characteristic to it — concepts of anti-purism (a critic of so called “pure art”) and the strategy of object oversizing (“size matters”).
Sztuka nie oddaje Widzialnego, ale raczej Widzialne umożliwia
Authors: Markowski Michał Paweł
Published: August 2021

In this essay the author examines Klee’s famous statement in his Cre-ative Confession (1920), which goes as follows: “Kunst gibt nicht das Sichtbare wieder, sondern macht sichtbar”. In conclusion, he argues that it should sound this way: “Art does not render the Visible; rather it makes the Visible possible (it lets the Visible happen)”. Art, according to Klee, has the power of giving us the access to the domain of pure potentiality, i.e. of pure ideas, anticipating the sphere of empirical experience — in other words, art anticipates what is real, “given”, or “visible”. While the traditional art represents, it means „rends visible”, the abstract one (Klee’s new art) — makes vision as well as visible possible (“makes visible”).
Numerical analysis of the flow rig for UWS spray examination in exhaust system-relevant conditions
Authors: GÓRKA Krzysztof , KAŹMIERSKI Bartosz , KAPUSTA Łukasz Jan
Published: August 2021

In the present study, a flow rig with optical access intended for spray investigations in exhaust system-relevant conditions was analysed in terms of flow and temperature in the spray area using numerical simulations. The operation of the rig was examined for a wide range of exhaust mass flow rates, temperatures and various forms of UWS (urea-water solution) spray plumes. The locations of the injector and thermocouple were verified. Both conventional and flash-boiling injections were considered to assess the effect of the interaction of sprays with a gas flow. The results showed a highly uniform flow in the visualisation area, with only minor fluctuations near the walls. A similar observation was carried out for the temperature distribution. It was found that the extreme operating conditions caused substantial deformations of the spray plumes. However, the selected injector location allowed us to properly observe the spray formation regardless of the flow conditions. The study showed that the examined test rig enabled reliable spray investigations for a wide range of operating points.

Published: August 2021

This report presents the methodological guidelines as well as some partial results of the study of referentiality in Mapudungun, a language isolate spoken in Chile and Argentina with different degrees of vitality. Reference in discourse encompasses two basic operations: the individuation of the referents and their anchorage in the discourse. Our research is part of a wider project which seeks to identify the structural resources used by the languages in referential operations. We investigate a set of structural and semantic parameters of referential expressions as they occur in a corpus of Mapudungun texts belonging to different genres. Some of the findings may represent general patterns of reference in natural texts, while others may be representative of specific Mapudungun genres. At a methodological level, our research shows that it is possible to substantiate hypotheses on reference and on discourse structure related to reference by hard figures, to characterize text genres by measurable semantic and structural properties, and to discover new phenomena which demand an explanation.

Published: August 2021

AbstractBackground: Preeclampsia is one of the risk factors for complications and also contributes to the high rate of morbidity and mortality in mothers and babies. The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) at the Mgr. Gabriel Manek Hospital, SVD Atambua has continued to increase in the last three years, from 2017 to 2019. It was recorded that in 2019 there were 126 cases of severe preeclampsia and eclampsia with 5 cases of maternal death and 2 maternal causes of death. is eclampsia. In addition to the factors that cause maternal death, one of the contributing causes of maternal and infant mortality is caused by the speed at which decisions are made in the family. Pregnant women are at risk of experiencing maternal death if during the referral process they experience at least one of the three delays, namely being late in making the decision to be referred. This study aims to determine the factors that influence the delay in decision making in preeclampsia pregnant women. Methods: The type of research is observational analytic with a cross sectional design. Collecting data using primary data with a questionnaire instrument by interview and secondary data obtained from the register of maternity mothers and medical records. The number of samples is 30 respondents. The sampling technique used was total sampling. The data were processed and calculated using frequency tables and cross tabulations and then analyzed using Multiple Logistics Regression Analysis with a significance level of 5% (p = 0.05). Bivariate data analysis used fisher's exact test andtest cramer's v. Results: The results showed that the factors that caused delays in decision making were knowledge having a p-value of 0.006 (OR 2.293, 95% Cl: 0.481-10.918), confidence having a p-value of 95%: 0.002-0.513, health insurance having p-value 0.010 (OR 0.000, 95% Cl: 0.000). Multivariate analysis shows that work is the most dominant factor in delaying decision making compared to other factors, and it can be concluded that the more working mothers, the smaller the delay, and the more mothers who do not work, the greater the delay in making decisions to get health services. . Conclusion: There is a relationship between knowledge, belief, occupation, and health insurance on the delay in decision making.

AbstractBackground: Autism is a child development disorder which usually late in case finding and intervention. It used to done in 30 month old of child. In Dr. Saiful Anwar Malang Regional Hospital, it was found that the average of case finding in 48 month of child. This study aims to determine how the acceptance of parents while getting diagnosis of their child and their action to give their child autism intervention. Method: This study used a qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach. Data colleted by in-depth interviews with 6 informants. Data analysis used Collaizi's (1978) Nine Steps method. Results: Most informants were late in recognizing the symptoms of autism in children, but they had a positive perception of the received diagnosis. All informants have felt bad feelings due to the diagnosis received, but have had coping methods for these feelings and have given autism interventions to children. Factors that influence parental acceptance include the level of education, knowledge, age, occupation, household harmony, social support, economic conditions, ethnicity, interaction between informants and experts, the clarity of symptoms shown by the child and the presence of siblings. Conclusion: Parental acceptance is a process from refusing, getting angry, bargaining, to accepting. In the process of being accepted, parents continue to make efforts to save children
Rheological and Component Characterization of an Innovative Bio-Binder Using Guayule Resin in Partial and Entire Asphalt Replacement
Authors: Hemida Ahmed , Abdelrahman Magdy
Published: August 2021

Asphalt cement will not last for a long time as the world encounters a diminishment in the crude oil. For sustainable, flexible pavement development, new resources can provide a contribution to replace it partially or entirely. In this study, asphalt was partially and entirely replaced by guayule resin as a bioresource by-product, extracted during the guayule natural rubber production. Crumb rubber modifier (CRM) was used as an asphalt enhancer. The Superpave grading system was followed at high, intermediate, and low temperatures to evaluate such innovative binder for rutting, fatigue, and thermal cracking, respectively, in addition to viscosity. Therefore, the original, short-term aging and long-term aging were simulated using tank, rolling thin film oven, and pressure aging vessel materials. Additionally, component analysis using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was provided to link the rheological properties with the chemical changes. Outcomes showed a relatively much lower viscosity of guayule in the same high-temperature asphalt grade indicating savings in plant energy consumption and reduced environmental emissions. CRM enhanced guayule, but not as much as asphalt, proven by polymeric component migration through liquid binder. This enhancement was reflected in the rheological performance besides other factors. As-received guayule seems to have high oxygen content proven by strong absorption peak intensities of oxidative bonds (e.g., Carbonyl and sulfoxide). Such pre-oxidation was negatively reflected in the intermediate- and low-temperature performance of guayule and guayule-based binders. However, the investigated guayule had potential to compensate for asphalt replacement in the presence of CRM by 23–42% by weight of blend.
The Impact of the Quark’s Monopole Properties on the Unification of the Fundamental Physical Forces
Authors: Roza Engel
Published: August 2021

It is shown that the four fundamental physical forces, i.e. weak interaction, strong interaction, electromagnetism and gravity, all have their origin in the quark as the single true elementary particle.This requires conceiving the quark as a Dirac particle in a pseudo-tachyon mode, which possesses two real dipole moments: the common one associated with its angular momentum and a second one that is polarisable in a scalar field. This Dirac particle carries a regular charge magnetic monopole without Dirac’s string, theorized by Comay. The boson carrier of its field of energy is the gluon showing an exponential decay of its spatial range because of the influence of an omni-present energetic background field, known as the Higgs field, in this article interpreted as the Lambda in Einstein’s Field Equation.
