Authors: Wijaya I Gede Pasek Suta , Widiartha Ida Bagus Ketut , Bimantoro Fitri , Septiadi Aldian Wahyu
Published: January 2020

Natural disasters such as earthquake often cause cracks in buildings and even demolish them. The cracked building must be assessed by an expert to determine whether the building is still suitable for use or not. The feasibility of a building is assessed based on the width, depth, and length of cracks in walls, beams, columns, and even the floor of the building. Only experienced experts can do such kind of task so that building assessment requires many structural engineering experts when an earthquake has happened. However, structural engineering experts are limited which able to do buildings assessment in the area affected. Therefore, the research based on a pattern recognition approach is conducted to classify cracks in buildings to be mild, moderate, or severe. It will be part of automatic building assessment based on the crack analysis. An alternative pattern recognition approach for classifying buildings cracks is a scheme based on zoning and shape features and Quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) classifier. Based on the experimental results the proposed scheme gives reasonable achievement more than 80% of accuracy.

The data are sent using the method proposed in this paper which using the UDP mechanism with several improvements. Experiments have been done using LAN and Wifi, and it is found that the data can be received perfectly, although there are interferences from communication media. The average processing time on a raspberry pi is 19 ms, while the average processing time on the pc server is 5 us. In addition, the average processing speed of the transmission data from raspberry pi to a pc server until ack is received by raspberry pi using LAN media is 0.04 second, while using Wifi media is 0.08 seconds. Based on the experiments, it was found that the proposed method was successfully implemented in the room condition telemonitoring.
Amphibole and biotite of melanocratic rocks from the Ural granitic massifs: composition, relationship, petrogenetic consequences
Authors: Pribavkin S. V.
Published: January 2020

Research subject. The article discusses the features of the relationship between biotite and amphibole on the example of magmatogene melanocratic rocks from a number of granitoid massifs of the Urals. These rocks form xenoliths and synplutonic intrusions of the calc-alkaline series of normal alkalinity: gornblenditam, gabbro, diorite, quartz diorite. They are composed of amphibole, acidic or middle plagioclase, in a subordinated quanitity they contain clinopyroxene, biotite, potassium feldspar, quartz.

Materials and methods. The composition of the minerals of melanocratic rocks was determined on a JSM-6990LV electron microscope with an EDC-adapter of INCA Energy 450 X-Max 80 in the Geoanalytical Center of the IGG Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Results and conclusions. Wide variations in amphibole compositions and narrow biotite variations caused by exchange processes between the mineral and postmagmatic fluid are shown. The phenomenon of replacement of early magmatic amphibole with biotite is substantiated by the presence of a gap in the crystallization temperatures of minerals, indicating a lack of physicochemical equilibrium between them. Their structural relationships confirm the development of biotite as a result of the replacement of amphibole in accordance with the competent and incompetent phase boundaries. In the first case, the structural packets of biotite are embedded along the silicon-oxygen chains of amphibole, which is expressed in the parallelism of the (001) plane of biotite with the (100), (110) planes of amphibole. In the second case, the development of biotite occurs irregularly, inheriting the system of cracks in amphibole. The distribution of Mg/Fe between biotite and early magmatic amphibole was studied, showing that the magnesia value of biotite is higher than that of amphibole replaced by it. Inverse ratios of magnesia value occur between biotite and post-magmatic amphibole. The equality of the magnesia values of both minerals may reflect the conditions of subsolidus equilibration of the compositions. The problem of choosing amphibole compositions for calculating the PTparameters of the formation of massifs in the Earth crust is considered.

Research subject. The article presents the results of a microscopic and photogoniometric study of natural rounded diamonds of tetraghexahedral habit from the kimberlite pipe “Internationalnaya” (Yakutia). The diamonds was partially dissolved in a sulphur-containing iron melt (sulphur content of 15–30 wt %) at 4.5 GPa and 1450ºС.

Methods. The experiments were carried out on a multi-puncheon apparatus of a “split-sphere” type in high-pressure solid-phase cells made of refractory oxides ZrO2, CaO, MgO using a cylindrical shape graphite heater. The crystals were studied using an MBS-10 optical microscope with a photo camera, and a Jeol JSM-6510LV scanning electron microscope. A goniometric study of diamond crystals was carried out by a photo method in a cylindrical chamber. It was found that when a sulphur content was 15 wt %, diamond crystals of tetrahexahedral habit were transformed into a curved shaped octahedroids with morphological features similar to natural diamonds found in kimberlites. When the sulphur content was 23–30 wt %, the rate of dissolution of diamonds in the Fe-S melt sharply reduced, while the diamond surface at the micro level became covered with numerous etching hillocks, whose sidewalls have surfaces similar to flat-faced {111} form. Dissolution of the rounded diamonds in the Fe-S melt at high pressure occurred by a “normal” mechanism, that is perpendicular to the surface of the dissolving crystal through trigonal dissolution layers, while a tangential-layered mechanism played a minor role.

Conclusion. The natural diamond crystals could underwent dissolution in the mantle before they were captured by kimberlite magma. Two fundamentally different types of homomorphic and typomorphic features of the dissolution forms observed on natural diamonds can be determined, namely: on one side, those associated with storage in mantle before the crystals were captured by the kimberlite magma, and on the other side, with the kimberlite process itself. The presence of octahedral diamonds with parallel (trigonal) striation in kimberlite deposits may indicate on a high degree of diamond preservation due to relatively insignificant effect of the kimberlite magma. This, undoubtedly, should help to decipher the diamond genesis and, possibly, improve the mineralogical criteria used in diamond exploration.

Authors: Akdağ Suzan Girginkaya , Sayar Berna
Published: January 2020

The "architecture without architect" in Cappadocia has always been fairy due to its volcanic stone formations and transforming silhouettes. In 1973, French architect Jack Avizou highlighted the essence of cave houses as vernacular building types and their potentials for local tourism beyond conventional notions of architectural heritage. Upon completing the restoration of cave houses in Uçhisar and transforming them to boutique hotels, he was nominated for Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2010. On the other hand, Aga Khan Award winner Turkish architect Turgut Cansever had also been advising for Argos Hotel project in Uçhisar since 1996. He gave importance to the concept of "protection" and preserved vernacular identity and characteristics despite the demands of the tourism sector. This paper aims to explore Avizou and Cansever’s design solutions in Uçhisar’s local context. Building and spatial relations in interiors will be analyzed with cluster analysis and ranked according to levels of novelty. Hence, the achievement of creativity through transformation, combination and variation of original designs, will be displayed. Understanding Avizou’s and Cansever’s visions on revitalization and adaptive re-use are substantial since their creativity shall be a source of inspiration for future sustainable tourism and building practices in a local and global context.
The Role of Changing Housing Policies in Housing Affordability and Accessibility in Developing Countries: The Case of Kenya.
Authors: AGAYI COLLINS OUMA , KARAKAYACI ÖZER
Published: January 2020

Rapid urbanization has led to the influx of people into urban areas as people seek better life opportunities. This migration has however largely not been planned, resulting in population explosions in the cities. Relying on existing research on the topic and government reports, this study finds that many middle and low-income families in Kenya have ended up living in informal settlements in urban areas due to housing unaffordability. The study further determines that the problem of housing is more pronounced in developing countries. Studies related to this issue establish that the housing crisis cannot only be attributed to rural-urban migration but also other factors like failed housing policies, poor housing financial systems, too much interference in the running of housing by the government and complex land tenure systems among others. This research, therefore, identifies the critical housing crisis issues, housing policy gaps in Kenya and proposes policy actions and the potential role of governments in a housing market to address affordability challenges. The study establishes the role of government and other institutions in the housing sector and proposes the land and housing reforms which can add knowledge to future research in similar areas.

Published: January 2020

The research aimed to formulate and prepare hydrogel of low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticles with the help of antifungal agents such as clotrimazole and Nystatin for the topical application. Using the ionic gelation process, placebo and nanoparticles containing drugs were prepared. By cationic interaction is suitable for pH, and gel sodium tripolyphosphate is used as a crosslinker which cross-links the chitosan particles to form the gel, interaction between drug and polymer was observed during the formulation development. Formulated nanoparticle with chitosan and nystatin and clotrimazole showed the mean diameter 273.7nm, 983nm, and 501nm. Clotrimazole and Nystatin had encapsulation capacity was about 74.6% and 63.0%, respectively. In vitro drug release at pH 4.7 chitosan molecules are examined for the version of clotrimazole and nystatin.it has noticed that both the formulation shows sustained drug release about 12 hours. Using SEM, nanoparticles are directed for surface morphology character; it shows that nanoparticles are smooth and spherical in structure. Chitosan itself has the antimicrobial property; it was carried out for the antifungal activity against the fungus Candida Albicans along with the prepared formulations drugs for the comparative study. And the result showed that clotrimazole had maximum fungal growth inhibition next followed by the nystatin and chitosan is least. This inhibitory effect was due to the parameter such as zeta potential and particle size of chitosan nanoparticles. And it shows the least antifungal activity of nanoparticles, which are formulated from the TMC. Hence CTZ and Chitosan were formulated and applied as a natural antifungal agent into nanoparticle to increase the fungal activity. According to the ICH Q1A (R2) guidelines, stability studies are conducted to prove no degradation of the drug. The prepared formulation of chitosan nanoparticles based hydrogel incorporated with clotrimazole and nystatin are promising and significant properties for the efficient treatment of topical fungal infections

Published: January 2020

Neutrophils spreading are a key event in the development and progression of inflammation, which is signaled by cytokines. In order to undergo inflammation process, neutrophils will migrate towards the site of infection by adhering along the endothelium and undergoing a major morphological transition from a spherical shape to a flattened shape, which is known as neutrophils spreading. Neutrophils transmigrate, whether by migration between the endothelial cells or through an endothelial cell. Calpain are involved in several key aspects of migration, including adhesion and spreading. Neutrophils were isolated from whole blood and observed under the microscope in order to study their spreading behavior. The results of neutrophils spreading were recorded and measured in terms of the cells surface area of spreading after stimulation with chemoattractant. This study showed the inhibition of calpain, which is triggered by Ca2+ influx has prevented neutrophils from changing its shapes and spread to its optimal. fMLP induced calpain inhibitor-treated neutrophils demonstrated smaller spreading areas (116.09µm2±2.58) as compared to the positive control cells (219.88µm2±3.73). Therefore, a calpain inhibitor may play an important part in preventing neutrophils from spreading, which could halt the progression of inflammatory disorders.

Pratyaksha (direct perception), Anumana (inference), Aptopadesha (testimony), and Yukti (reasoning) are the tools that helps for the diagnosis of the disease.  To fulfill this purpose Atura-Pariksha (examination of patients), Dravya Pariksha (examination of medicinal drug and preparations), and Roga-Rogi Pariksha (examination of the patient and disease), etc. are a very important tool. The concept of Sara is described under Dashavidha Atura Pariksha (tenfold examination), and it is an important concept in both Swastha-rakshana (maintenance of health) and Aturasya Vikara Prashamana (treatment of disease). The concept of Sara is explained by different Acharyas elaborately in their own way. In spite of tremendous success in modern medical science, the incidence of diseases are increasing enormously. A sedentary lifestyle and improper dietary habits has led to the emergence of several health problems, including Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), and it is emerging as a major disease affecting mankind with many complications.  Hence present study has been undertaken to understand Sara because all persons vary from one another in many ways, and a personalized approach to patient care should be adopted to plan appropriate therapeutics. Dietary factors, lifestyle, and psychological factors are involved in the aetiology of Madhumeha (T2DM). The Twak Sara, Shukra Sara, Asthi Sara, and Majja Sara persons are more prone to develop Madhumeha (T2DM). The Meda Sara and Mamsa Sara are less prone to develop Madhumeha (T2DM).

It is hard to overestimate the value of honey since the constituent substances in it are of great importance in the food industry and medicine. The quality of honey is established by the legislation of the Russian Federation (GOST). But the levels of these standards are regulated by outdated methods of analysis, which can not give reliable results. The detection of antibiotic residues in honey is a central issue in the quality and safety control of this product. Accumulation of drugs in honey used to treat bee colonies can cause allergies and dysbiosis in people who have eaten such honey, as well as develop antibiotic resistance in microorganisms. At present, one of the promising directions in the field of detecting medicines in honey is the use of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It helps selectively and accurately detect antibiotic substances in honey bee products. In Russia, the HPLC method is used with mass spectrometry to detect tetracycline residues in honey. A significant drawback with this method that limits the widespread use of it is the application of expensive, technically sophisticated equipment that needs high-quality reagents and consumables. The purpose of this work was to develop the simultaneous identification of tetracycline antibiotics in honey and carry out their quantitative analysis by a reversed-phase HPLC method. A sample preparation algorithm was developed, and the conditions for chromatographing combined indication of tetracyclines in honey at an acceptable concentration according to the MRL (0.01 mg/kg) with Agilent 1260 Infiniti liquid chromatograph equipped with a column thermostat, a gradient pump, and a UV detector were selected. According to the results of the research, the most optimal condition for the simultaneous analysis of oxytetracycline, tetracycline hydrochloride, chlortetracycline in honey by HPLC method with ultraviolet detection was a wavelength of 254 nm, a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min and a column temperature of 25° C. Under these conditions, the antibiotic retention time was determined: 4.069 minutes for oxytetracycline, 4.331 minutes for tetracycline hydrochloride, 4.642 minutes for chlortetracycline. The developed HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of tetracycline antibiotics in honey was tested on honey bee products from the regions of the Republics of Tatarstan and Bashkortostan.

Heart failure (HF) is now a major public health issue with a current prevalence of over 23 million worldwide.  Physical exercise is now mandatory for HF management to improve a sense of wellbeing. The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of aerobic exercises with the conventional treatment methods with selected patient outcomes among heart failure patients. A quantitative experimental research approach with a post-test-only control group design was adopted. A total of 40 HF patients were taken as study sample, and they were randomly divided into two groups.   One group was given conservative treatment, whereas the other was trained with aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise training was given to the training group for 30 days, and physical, physiological, and psychological changes were assessed by standardized rating scales.  A difference of post-test scores of the exercise training group and conservative treatment group were examined using t-tests and Chi-square tests. Out of 40 patients (45% above 60yrs of age, 62.5% male), two groups exhibited an extremely significant difference in terms of HF  symptoms,  pain, and anxiety (p < 0.00001).  HF symptoms, chest pain, anxiety exhibited a significant association with age, edema showed significant association with occupation and oxygen uptake showed a significant association with age and occupation. This study concluded that aerobic exercises are highly effective to improve the activity tolerance of the body and can significantly reduce pain, edema, and anxiety levels in heart failure patients receiving conservative treatment.

Published: January 2020

Dental casts are invaluable research tools. There are a variety of molding compounds available, all having temperature, humidity, and timing guidelines to ensure a precise replica of dentition. However, not all field research conditions allow for adherence to environmental guidelines requiring longer wait times prior to pouring epoxy for casting. This study, tests a common molding compound in extreme environments and over varying time intervals, testing the integrity of the dental molds in producing precise replicas of original teeth. 580 molds were created under three varying environments: room temperature, hot/humid, and cold/dry. Molds were removed from these environments in two-week intervals over twelve weeks. The resulting casts were measured to determine timing limitations for producing accurate dental casts under varying environments. Molds stored at room temperature retained their shape and size for the complete twelve weeks.  Molds kept in a hot and humid environment, however, only maintained their shape and size up to four weeks, whereas molds in a cold and dry environment showed significant changes by the end of the second week. These findings provide additional tools for researchers working in a variety of field conditions allowing casts to be taken of specimens that cannot be transported off site.
A Systematic Literature Review and Case Report of Bilateral Two-Rooted Mandibular Deciduous Canines and Their Usefulness in Forensic Identification
Authors: Marín Liliana , Moreno Sandra , Moreno Freddy
Published: January 2020

A systematic review of the literature in PubMed was made by combining the terms “cuspid” and “tooth root” as MeSH health descriptors, combined with the Boolean operators “+” and “&” to obtain describing publications about two roots canines in order to sustain, on scientific evidence, the application of dental anthropology (dental morphological variations) in forensic science (forensic processes of dental identification). This literature review identified reports that describe the presence of two-rooted canines and the number and distribution of root canals for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes; and one report in which description was performed for forensic identification purposes. The descriptions corresponded to different cases of permanent maxillary canines with left unilateral expression, permanent mandibular canines with right unilateral expression, left unilateral expression with bilateral expression. There were no reports of deciduous dentition. Likewise, a case report in which skeletonized human remains were identified by the presence of bilateral two-root mandibular deciduous canines is described.

La exposición Festival of Britain de Londres de 1951 ocupa un destacado lugar en la historia de la arquitectura inglesa de la postguerra por ser el punto de arranque de la recuperación urbana del South Bank de Londres. Tuvo un gran apoyo y protagonismo en The Architectural Review, que publicó varios artículos y un número monográfico con el fin de mostrar como el master plan de la exposición se ajustaba a los ideales del Visual Planning y del Townscape que la revista venía difundiendo desde hacía unos años. Pero también fue criticada por un grupo de jóvenes arquitectos liderados por Reyner Banham que como reacción propondrían una arquitectura alternativa que fue denominada como el New Brutalism.
Ephemeral events and their traces in the urban structure: Zagreb's 1987 Universiade
Authors: Petrović Krajnik Lea , Krajnik Damir
Published: January 2020

Organizing a mega event, even an ephemeral one, can leave many material and non-material traces in a city and a host region and can be a means of bringing to life development visions and urban policy strategy. During preparations for the event itself, numerous interventions are carried out that are directly or indirectly related to the event. Depending on the type and concept of the event itself, the interventions in the city and its region can become part of their permanent heritage, thus improving the long-term quality of life of their inhabitants.
The aim of this paper is to show how a large sports event, the 1987 Zagreb Summer Universiade, contributed to the development of the city and the host region, and to the implementation of the urban policy strategy of the time.
Although Zagreb has a long history of urban planning, emphasis here is placed on the spatial planning documentation of the second half of the 20th century that preceded the organization of this large sports event. This paper looks at interventions carried out during the preparatory phase of the event that were directly or indirectly related to the temporary event itself as well as at the cultural and social program related to the Universiade.
It may be concluded that the 14th Summer Universiade was a significant sports and cultural event that served as an instrument for carrying out numerous projects aimed at constructing new and improving existing sports facilities, accommodation capacities and the urban renewal of the city centre. Since most of the interventions would not have been carried out in such a short period of time were it not for the Universiade, it can be said that the Universiade was a means of realizing urban development policies and renewing Zagreb. The event left a lasting legacy of elements of infrastructure, suprastructure and ecostructure that the inhabitants of the city and the region continue to use for the same purposes.
Un paréntesis en el mundo: el cuaderno de viaje a las islas de la Reunión y Madagascar de Gilles Clément
Authors: Ávila Calzada Carlos
Published: January 2020

Los cuadernos de viaje han sido, a lo largo de la historia, una valiosa herramienta de descripción de las vivencias y observaciones del viajero, fuera éste científico, artista, arquitecto o paisajista. Combinación de textos y dibujos, este tipo de documentos perviven en nuestros tiempos a pesar de la facilidad en el intercambio de la información de los medios digitales actuales. En ellos, se plasma la mirada subjetiva del viajero, que pone en valor aquellos aspectos que le suscitan mayor interés. Es en ese componente subjetivo, donde reside el interés de estos cuadernos, mostrándonos los procesos mentales y creativos que surgen de estas experiencias vitales que, en ocasiones, se ven posteriormente reflejados en los proyectos o en los escritos de sus autores. En marzo de 1995, Gilles Clément, uno de los paisajistas más paradigmáticos de las últimas décadas, viaja a las islas de La Reunión y Madagascar con el objetivo de desarrollar dos proyectos muy distintos. El relato de este recorrido queda reflejado en un inédito cuaderno de viaje, objeto del presente artículo, en el que el autor va detallando los pormenores de su recorrido a través de descripciones, reflexiones personales, anotaciones y anécdotas, acompañadas de dibujos y esquemas.
Expresión de fenómenos urbanos efímeros a partir de las redes sociales
Authors: Nolasco Cirugeda Almudena , Serrano Estrada Leticia , Martí Ciriquián Pablo
Published: January 2020

La información geolocalizada generada en las redes sociales, producto de la socialización virtual, ofrece un amplio panorama de posibilidades para el estudio de fenómenos urbanos que atañen a las ciudades del presente. Se trata de huellas digitales de distinta naturaleza, compartidas pública y voluntariamente que, en gran medida, son evidencia de la interacción individuo-entorno a escalas espaciotemporales anteriormente impensables, abriendo nuevos campos en el análisis e interpretación de fenómenos fugaces y mutables. Este trabajo recoge y analiza una muestra representativa de estudios realizados durante la última década que, a partir de los datos provenientes de redes sociales, se centran el análisis de fenómenos efímeros relacionados con la percepción, la socialización, la actividad urbana y la temporalidad, poniendo de manifiesto el gran potencial y la versatilidad de estos datos para complementar los estudios urbanos tradicionales.
Estructuras ligeras y móviles, arquitecturas que interactúan con el medio. España 1960-75
Authors: García Martínez Mónica
Published: January 2020

En la década de los sesenta y los setenta surgieron en España una serie de propuestas experimentales, que convergieron con corrientes internacionales del momento en la búsqueda de nuevos repertorios tecnológicos orientados hacia la “ligereza”, “transformabilidad” e “interacción con el medio ambiente”.

Las figuras que centraron el debate en el panorama nacional en torno a las estructuras ligeras fueron José Miguel de Prada Poole, quien encabezó el desarrollo de las “estructuras neumáticas”, y Emilio Pérez Piñero, cuyas “estructuras desplegables” pusieron a España a la cabeza de la innovación. A partir de los años setenta el interés por los sistemas estructurales se desplazó progresivamente hacia una arquitectura capaz de reaccionar a los estímulos del medio. Nuevas líneas de experimentación: “válvulas atmosféricas” y “arquitecturas de la regulación” introdujeron de la mano de José Miguel de Prada Poole y Juan Navarro Baldeweg componentes utópicas en busca de la inmediatez del hombre con el medio.

Si bien se trata de propuestas reconocidas por sus aportes tecnológicos, quedaron sin embargo, excluidas del debate cultural del momento. Este estudio pretende desvelar el imaginario desarrollado por arquitectos españoles de este periodo en torno a nuevos espacios para la vida en clave experimental y en relación con el medio, e inscribirlo en el marco de una cultura global.

Do “eu penso” da Ciência Moderna à consciência possível na Ciência da Informação: uma relação possível sob a égide da responsabilidade social da informação
Authors: Silva Luiz Eduardo Ferreira da
Published: January 2020

Esta pesquisa investiga o contexto social da informação, porque, com o advento da ciência moderna, o sujeito cognoscente rompeu com o saber “sacralizado” da antiga Idade Média constituído pela igreja e por seu caráter teológico. Aponta que a ciência moderna trouxe o conceito de racionalidade do indivíduo e sua relação de intersubjetividade ancorada. Desse modo, a ciência moderna propiciou novas conjecturas para se pensar sobre a humanidade, interpretando suas necessidades, principalmente nesse contexto racional. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa compreende o contexto da responsabilidade social da informação com base na ciência moderna e na consciência possível por meio de regimes de informação apresentados por Isa Freire (2001). Conclui-se que, por mais que a ciência moderna e a consciência possível estejam separadas pelas cronologias e por significados conceituais, ambas têm uma convergência, sobretudo no que diz respeito aos “intersujeitos/usuários” da informação e à relação social que ela desempenha na atual realidade da Ciência da Informação.
