A review of the composition and evolution of hydrocarbon gases during solidification of the Ilímaussaq alkaline complex, South Greenland
Authors: Konnerup-Madsen Jens
Published: May 2020

Fluid inclusions in minerals from agpaitic nepheline syenites and hydrothermal veins in the Ilímaussaq complex and in similar agpaitic complexes on the Kola Peninsula, Russia, are dominated by hydrocarbon gases (predominantly methane) and hydrogen. Such volatile compositions differ considerably from those of most other igneous rocks and their formation and entrapment in minerals reflects low oxygen fugacities and a wide range of crystallisation temperatures extending to a low-temperature solidus. Their composition reflects initial low carbon contents and high water contents of the magma resulting in the exsolution of a waterrich CO2–H2O dominated vapour phase. Fractionation of chlorides into the vapour phase results in high salinities and the subsequent development of a heterogeneous vapour phase with a highly saline aqueous-rich fraction and a methane-dominated fraction, with preferential entrapment of the latter, possibly due to different wetting characteristics. The light stable isotope compositions support an abiogenic origin for the hydrocarbons in agpaitic nepheline syenite complexes.
IMPROVING STRENGTH INDICATORS OF FSF PLYWOOD BY USING MODIFIING ADDITIVES TO BINDING AGENT
Authors: Fedotov A. , Vahnina Tat'yana , Kotikov Sergey
Published: May 2020

Improving the production process of FSF waterproof plywood has been relevant since the beginning of its pro-duction. Only the criteria for improving the quality of plywood products are changing. At the present stage, the costs of improving the quality of plywood cannot be compensated by an increase in prices. Reduction in production costs is required. A rational way to improve operational properties is to reduce pressing temperature and introduce modifying additives that increase adhesive and cohesive strength of phenol-formaldehyde binder. The problem is that when press-ing temperature is reduced to 150 °C or lower, phenol-formaldehyde binder does not reach the resite stage. It negatively affects the strength and water resistance of FSF plywood. It was decided to use modifying additives in the adhesive composition to bind free methylol groups of the oligomer and increase the number of active sites in the curable phenolic binder network. The strength properties of FSF plywood with the use of nine modifying additives have been investigated. The consumption of modifiers varied in the range of 0.25-1.5% in increments of 0.25%. Pressing was carried out at a temperature of 120 °С. An improvement in the tensile strength of plywood when shearing on the adhesive layer was found to be 5-15% (in comparison with control samples without the addition of a modifier) when aqueous solutions of hexavalent aluminum chloride, anhydrous magnesium chloride, eight-zinc zinc sulfate, sulfosalicylic acid, dimethylglyoxime with a different proportion of additives were used as modifying additives to phenol-formaldehyde binder. Tensile strength under static bending of plywood is also increased when using modifiers with different proportion of additives

In many countries of the world, arbitration has been used as an alternate disagreement resolution technique, which remains a form of dispute settlement process outside a courtroom. Disagreements and conflicts in the construction industry have been viewed as disagreeable events in the implementation of projects by numerous researchers and these harm costs, performance, and complete objectives. Such conflicts have in the past been settled by litigation and lawsuits in which commercial ties were ultimately destroyed. The study employed four research objectives and research questions. Data used for the study existed from secondary and primary sources. Secondary records were assembled from related works on preceding studies although primary data were collected from fact-finding. The sample size is 100 respondents made up of staff from the Federal Ministry of Works and the state ministry of works in Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria. Four establishments of higher learning in Imo State were also covered. A list of contractors was assimilated from the federation of building and civil engineering contractors Imo State branch. The study exposed that arbitration has been established to be worthwhile and less time overwhelming. Furthermore, usage of arbitration is additional facilitated by the inclusion of an arbitration clause in most construction contracts which usually states that all disputes arising in the contract shall be settled by arbitration. The study concludes that the use of arbitration in dispute resolution in construction contracts not only minimizes cost and time but also facilitates cordial relationships among the parties after the dispute and this minimizes the incidence of project failure and abandonment in the construction industry. It recommended that in addition to proper education on the use of arbitration, there should be adequate enlightenment and awareness creation on the importance and use of arbitration in the building industry, especially in the informal sector.

Published: May 2020

This is often seen that when the roads are to be repaired or re-tarred the man holes get covered up due increase in height of the road and hence they have to reconstructed to adapt to the height of the road else Misaligned manhole frames in streets often cause driving hazards, failure of pavement around the frames, cause poor access to manholes,
may be responsible for inflow and infiltration and can also result in other problems. Because manhole frames are not manufactured to be adjustable, an effort to make repairs is time consuming and often in effective. Thus there is a need to develop an height adjustable manhole system where in manhole system be constructed by casting the manhole by suitable method according to the Indian Standard so as to make the system flexible enough to adjust the height of the manhole as per requirement. The scaled model of the height adjustable manhole will be made and solid modeling using Unigraphix software will be done to determine optimal dimension of gear-shaped parts through bending stress formulas and application Ansys work bench software to validate the strength of the manhole analytically. Fabrication of the scaled model will be done after appropriate selection of the nodular cast iron frame work, for nut and screw parts where as the holder elements will be developed by fabrication. Testing will be done by
suitable methods to determine and experimentally validate the strength of the developed part of the manhole.

Authors: Jalil Hincapié José Mario , Sánchez Erika Marcela , Orozco Arteaga Sebastián , Martínez Damián
Published: May 2020

Introducción

El VPPB constituye un motivo de consulta común. A pesar de contar con un manejo sencillo con la realización de maniobras, generalmente los pacientes son tratados de una manera suboptima; secundario a ésto se observa la administración de medicamentos con los cuales no se logra determinar la causa central de su queja, aumentando el número de consultas. 

Objetivos 

Explorar la asociación del uso de vestíbulosupresores con el tiempo de diagnóstico y recuperación de los pacientes con VPPB así como la descripción de características clínicas y sociodemográficas.

Diseño

Estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrospectivo

Metodología

Se incluyeron pacientes con diagnóstico de VPPB; fueron distribuidos en dos grupos según el antecedente de consumo de vestibulosupresores en los últimos 3 meses, con lo cual se evalúo el tiempo de diagnóstico y mejoría, entre octubre 1 de 2010 y Mayo 31 de 2017

Resultados

109 pacientes, 18 hombres y 91 mujeres. Pacientes con uso reciente de vestibulosupresores 91 y sin uso 18, el diagnóstico en el primer grupo requirió varias consultas,el segundo grupo requirió una consulta. Tiempo de evolución en días del primer grupo comparado con el segundo fué de 76 y 47 días respectivamente, el tiempo que pasó entre el diagnóstico y la mejoría sintomática completa fue de 41 y 31 días respectivamente.

Conclusiones 

El antecedente de consumo de vestibulosupresores vs no consumo, genera un aumento en las consultas para llegar al diagnóstico de VPPB, mayor tiempo de evolución clínica, entre el diagnóstico y la mejoría de los síntomas, sin diferencias estadísticamente significativas.

An Idol-shaped Stele with an Old Phrygian Inscription in the Territory of Nakoleia
Authors: TAMSÜ POLAT Rahşan , POLAT Yusuf , LUBOTSKY Alexander
Published: May 2020

During the archaeological surveys conducted in Seyitgazi and Han Districts of Eskişehir Province in 2019, we have visited Eski Cami Höyük (formerly known as Hüsnüabad) which is located 1 km southeast of Gümüşbel Village, 15 km east of Seyitgazi District in Eskişehir Province. The mound is under a cemetery from the Islamic Period and has a preserved diameter of 180 m with a 3.5 m height. During this visit, Iron Age ceramics were identified on the mound and its skirts, dating to the Late Chalcolithic Age, the Early Bronze Age 2-3, the Classical Period, and the 8th Century BC. On the south-eastern skirt of the mound, an idol-shaped stele with an Old Phrygian inscription was found. In this article, we describe the newly found stele and the inscription and discuss its importance for the Phrygian iconography and linguistics. Three heads and a long body (?) engraved on the idol-shaped tufa block may signify the Mother Goddess together with the gods that accompany her. Two of the heads were made right next to each other and are bordered by a double engraved line. The third head was placed between the other two, made at the point where the double engraved lines that border the two heads meet in the middle. On the stele, there is one line of an Old Phrygian inscription above the heads and three lines just under them. It follows from the inscription that the idol was probably used as a boundary stone. The clear part of the inscription can be translated as follows: “Atas. My monument is a boundary stone.”
Vom Symbol zum Ebenbild: Die Entstehung des Münzporträts in der griechisch-persischen Tradition
Authors: MÜSELER Wilhelm
Published: May 2020

Die Darstellung von Menschen mit deutlich wiedererkennbaren individuellen Zügen auf Mün-zen entwickelte sich im Grenzbereich zwischen dem griechischen und dem persischen Kultur-raum als Folge von komplexer gewordenen politischen Machtstrukturen vor Ort. Wo zu-nächst das Symbol einer politischen Körperschaft oder die Abbildung einer lediglich mit den Attributen königlicher Herrschaft ausgestatteten Figur ohne irgendwelche weiteren persönli-chen Merkmale genügt hatte, um die Garantie für die Wertigkeit des Geldes durch eine über-geordnete Autorität zu unterstreichen, machte die zunehmende Produktion von Münzen durch Akteure auf untergeordneten hierarchischen Ebenen, welche als Vermittler, bisweilen aber auch als Konkurrenten einer gegebenen Herrschaftsstruktur auftreten konnten, eine im-mer differenziertere Kennzeichnung der Verantwortlichkeit für die Prägungen und des damit ausgedrückten Machtanspruches notwendig. Es ist kein Zufall, dass ausgerechnet Lykien mit seiner eher peripheren Lage und seiner Vielzahl an kleinen, von konkurrierenden dynastischen Clans kontrollierten Machtzentren auf engstem Raum, die ersten echten Ansätze zu einer indi-viduellen Gestaltung des Herrscherbildnisses auf Münzen hervorgebracht hat. Mit der Auflö-sung der überkommenen politischen Strukturen in Kleinasien und im ganzen Vorderen Orient in der Folge des Feldzuges Alexanders des Grossen kam es zu weiträumigen geopolitischen Veränderungen und einer erheblichen Zunahme von regionalen Machtblöcken, die alle über eine eigene Münzproduktion verfügten und die sich ihre Einflussbereiche gegenseitig streitig machten. Da es in der Folge vor allem darum ging, dass die verschiedenen Prägeherren mit ihrem Geld auch von schriftunkundigen Nutzern klar voneinander unterschieden werden konnten, führte dies, namentlich bei den ptolemaischen und den seleukidischen Geprägen, zu einer verstärkten Individualisierung der Herrscherbildnisse auf den Münzen. Nur in abgelege-nen Regionen wie der Persis, wo es so gut wie keinen stetigen Zustrom und Umlauf von kon-kurrierenden Währungen gab, erfüllten nur symbolische Porträts der Regenten noch eine Zeit lang ihren ursprünglichen Zweck.
Emperor Tiberius and His praecipua legionum cura in a New Bronze Tablet from AD 14
Authors: ROTHENHOEFER Peter
Published: May 2020

Fragments of a huge inscribed bronze tabula are presented here, which can be dated to the end of the year AD 14. The document contained regulations regarding the privileges of soldiers and veterans as well as the financing of the latter. These regulations were made after the mutinies of legions at the Rhine and Danube frontiers, which started after the death of Augustus.
Dionysiac Associations among the Dedicants of Hosios kai Dikaios Revisiting Recently Published Inscriptions from the Mihalıççık District in North-West Galatia
Authors: COŞKUN Altay
Published: May 2020

Four new epigraphic finds from the Mihalıççık District encourage us to reconsider the role that villages and associations played among those who made dedications to the divine pair Hosios kai Dikaios. According to the distribution of the evidence, the cult originated and remained concentrated on the north-east of Phrygia Epiktetos, but spread all over western Asia Minor and even beyond. After surveying the documents known previously especially thanks to M. Ricl (1991; 1992a; 2008) and classifying elements of the dedication formula, slightly improved readings and interpretations are offered for the five inscriptions (re-) published by H. Güney (2018a): twice, the imperial slave Chryseros is attested as fulfilling vows to the gods together with his fellow villagers (nos. 2, 3); three other instances, however, involve associations: perhaps a Β̣[ακχῖ]ον, the obscure Παρ[---]διᾶται, and the Κταηνοῖ, further specified as the Βα<κ>χῖον τὸ περὶ Τύραννον (nos. 4, 5, 1). The combined evidence catalogued by Ricl and Güney adds up to some 185 dedications to Hosios kai Dikaios, including, in their views, 17 cases that originated from village communities, compared to only two by associations. The present study argues instead that the ascertained evidence for villages is only six and that this is on par with the documentation of associations. All six of the latter can be identified as Dionysiac thiasoi.
Phase Locking in Millimeter Wave Frequency Synthesizers - Design overview of Charge Pump Phase Locked Loops
Authors: Nithin M. , Kittur Harish M.
Published: May 2020

Phase Locked Loops are key blocks which are widely adopted in all area of electronics, especially transceivers in wireless communication systems. The application of Phase Locked Loop varies from generation of local oscillator signal for upconversion and down conversion, generation and distribution of clock signals and jitter reduction. The most extensive use of Phase Locked Loop is for frequency synthesis. The requirements of synthesizer architectures depend on various system requirements and specifications which are based on regulatory standards. The design of Phase Locked Loop components involves the consideration of various techniques to resolve the nonidealities at front end high frequency components as well as back end low frequency components. This paper presents the background and importance of a Phase Locked Loop, various approaches over the years, design choices for each block and practical design methodology for Charge Pump Phase Locked Loops. This paper also presents the system level design of Phase Locked Loop and supply noise interactions among sub modules inside a charge pump Phase Locked Loop
SOIL PHYSICAL CONSTRAINTS AND THEIR EFFECT ON MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERS OF COCONUT (Cocos nucifera L. ) ROOTS

The objective of the study was to (1) evaluate land suitability for coconut (cocos nucifera L.) production in relation to soil physical properties, (2) identify the soil physical constraints and (3) study their effect on the morphological adaptation of coconut roots. Soil physical properties were found to be significantly related to coconut yield (R2=81.37; p<0.01). Multiple regression with cluster analysis of soil physical properties vs coconut yield enabled classification of soil series into three major groups namely (a) highly  (b) moderately and (c) less productive series. It was observed that the high soil compaction which limited the available water and aeration capacity of soils resulted in retardation of the activity of coconut roots. Water stress due to soil compaction was found to induce production of more inactive roots by suberization and dehydration processes. Scanning electron microscopic image showed that soil compaction and water stress, reduced the cell volume per unit area  of the absorption zone and the number of pores in respiratory organs of  coconut roots resulting in retardation of water and nutrient absorption, and air exchange processes. This in turn malfunctions of absorption cells and respiratory organs of roots resulted in retardation of growth of coconut seedlings. The practical importance of these findings in formulation of land suitability maps for coconuts is discussed.
Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy and Spirituality
Authors: Okur Sinan
Published: May 2020

This study addresses the topic of integrating spirituality into the Satir method, which was pioneered by Virginia Star and is included within experiential family therapies. The concept of spirituality, which had been included in individual therapies after the 1950s, also found room particularly after 1990 in family therapies together with the Satir method. The goal in the spirituality-based Satir method is to increase the client’s adaptability and communication skills by integrating spirituality in the psychological counseling process. In addition, this approach also aims to have families notice their emotions using spiritual techniques. Satir, who does not limit her approach to any single religious tradition, can be said to have adopted the concept of universal spirituality. While the concept of spirituality has newly been included in individual psychological counseling in Turkey, it still has no place in the dimensions of family therapy. Little research has been encountered on this topic in the literature as well, and because new studies are felt needed, this work is being carried out. This study is believed to provide an important contribution to the literature. This study makes mention primarily of the Satir method as a representative of experiential family therapy, the Satir method’s views on spirituality, how spirituality can be applied in this approach, and how necessary the therapeutic process is in the spirituality-based approach. Afterward, the role and responsibilities of the psychological counselor in the spirituality-integrated Satir method are explained, and the techniques included in Satir’s spirituality-based approach are mentioned. Lastly, a case study founded on Satir’s spirituality-based family therapy approach has been included, and the issue has been generally summarized.
Spiritually-Oriented Cognitive-Behavioral Family Therapy

Published: May 2020

A great many factors influence human life. Among these are individuals’ religious and spiritual orientations, whose importance cannot be understated as they not only affect how individuals perceive and interpret themselves, events in their everyday lives, and the greater world but also shape their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Consequently, religious and spiritual orientations constitute an integral part of clients’ lives and are an important element that needs to be thoroughly investigated. In addition to having been integrated into individual psychological counseling approaches, religious/spiritual orientation has become as a highly supportive element in family therapy. Spiritually-oriented applications are quite helpful when addressing problems dealt with by individuals and families. In the current study, spiritually-oriented cognitive-behavioral family therapy is addressed in light of the relevant literature. We first present a general overview of cognitive-behavioral therapy and cognitive-behavioral family therapy, after which we frame the assessment steps followed in spiritually-oriented cognitive-behavioral family therapy within a paradigm based on religion and spirituality. After that, we reveal the religious/spiritual-based cognitive-behavioral applications that may be used during family therapy. We then discuss several exercises and applications employed during spiritually-oriented cognitive-behavioral family therapy. Finally, this study seeks to fill in gaps in the relevant literature on this topic in Turkey and offer a novel perspective to practitioners and researchers.
