Published: June 2019

This descriptive study describes the clinical, paraclinical characteristics in children with renal tubular acidosis. In this study, 36 children with renal tubular acidosis were hospitalized in the National Hospital of Pediatrics from June, 2012 to July, 2017. Among the patients, 64.0% were male; the male/female ratio was 1.8/1. The average age of the patients was 7.7 ± 4.6 years. There were 29 type 1 renal tubular acidosis patients (80.6%) and 7 type 2 renal tubular acidosis (19.6%). The most common clinical signs were slow weight gain (100%), polyuria and vomiting were 25.7%, excessive water drinking (16.7%), diarrhea (13.9%), weak lower limb (11.1%), and apnea (8.3%). The laboratory values on admission were: blood pH 7.23 ± 0.11; HCO3- 12.5 ± 5.07; serum sodium 136 ± 7mmol/l; potassium 2.9 ± 0.5 mmol/l; chloride 112 ± 9 mmol/l. The study concludes that 53.8% of the clinical, paraclinical characteristics in children with Renal Tubular Acidosis were inconspicuousness, which effected the children’s growth. The study recommends a long-term strategy for diagnosis and follow–up treatment of renal tubular acidosis.

ARTIFICIAL RECHARGE FOR SUSTAINABLE GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN IN YOGYAKARTA
Authors: Verma Nishi , Anda Martin , Wijayanti Yureana
Published: June 2019

Aim: This study investigates the development of a sustainable groundwater management strategy in Yogyakarta province through groundwater recharge technologies. This study also compares technologies used in the province and the one already implemented in Perth due to its similar nature in site geology and hydrogeology. Methodology and Results: Primary and secondary data were collected and analyzed. Water depth and hydraulic conductivity data were analyzed using permeameter and GIS program. GIS image analysis of water depth and hydraulic conductivity suggested that the placement of potential aquifer recharge sites would be best suited in the north-east part of the province, slightly outside the study area, to provide water for all. Two recharge schemes of an infiltration basin and an injection well with storm water detention tank were proposed. The injection well was decided upon, despite its higher cost, due to the impermeability of soils in Yogyakarta and possible water seepage to the environment. Similar to Perth’s Hartfield park scheme, an injection well would directly bypass these soil layers to recharge the aquifers with rainwater and storm water. Hartfield Park injects 4400 kL of water/year. Conclusion, significance and impact study: The findings of this study indicate aquifer recharge is a possible solution to overcome Yogyakarta’s high abstraction. Further studies recommend that injection well trials are further developed in terms of location, depth and sizing.
Characteristics of transient pressure performance of horizontal wells in fractured-vuggy tight fractal reservoirs considering nonlinear seepage

Published: June 2019

Since the classical seepage theory has limitations in characterizing the heterogeneity of fractured-vuggy tight reservoirs, well test interpretation results are not consistent with actual production by far. Based on the nonlinear percolation theory, a new nonlinear seepage equation considering the boundary layer and yield stress was derived to describe the seepage characteristics of dense matrix blocks and the stress sensitivity and fractal features of fracture systems were characterized by applying the fractal theory. Thus, the nonlinear model of a horizontal well in a fractured-vuggy tight fractal reservoir was established naturally. Then the finite element method was applied to solve the bottom hole pressure based on the processing of internal boundary conditions. After solving the model, the seepage characteristics of different models were summarized by analyzing the bottom hole pressure dynamic curves and the sensitivity analysis of multiple parameters such the nonlinear parameter and fractal index were conducted. Finally, the practicality of the model was proved through a field application. The results show that the pressure dynamic curves can be divided into nine flow stages and the increase of the nonlinear parameter will cause the intensity of the cross flow from matrix blocks to the fracture system to decrease. The fractal index is irrelevant to the intensity of the cross flow while it decides the upwarping degree of the curve at the middle and late flow stages. On the basis of the results of the field application, it can be concluded that the model fits well with actual production and the application of this model can improve the accuracy of well test interpretation.
Geomechanical key parameters of the process of hydraulic fracturing propagation in fractured medium

Published: June 2019

Hydraulic Fracturing (HF) is a well-stimulation technique that creates fractures in rock formations through the injection of hydraulically pressurized fluid. Because of the interaction between HF and Natural Fractures (NFs), this process in fractured reservoirs is different from conventional reservoirs. This paper focuses mainly on three effects including anisotropy in the reservoir, strength parameters of discontinuities, and fracture density on HF propagation process using a numerical simulation of Discrete Element Method (DEM). To achieve this aim, a comprehensive study was performed with considering different situations of in situ stress, the presence of a joint set, and different fracture network density in numerical models. The analysis results showed that these factors play a crucial role in HF propagation process. It also was indicated that HF propagation path is not always along the maximum principal stress direction. The results of the numerical models displayed that the affected area under HF treatment is decreased with increasing the strength parameters of natural fracture and decreasing fracture intensity.
Development and validation of a hybrid temporal LES model in the perspective of applications to internal combustion engines
Authors: Afailal Al Hassan , Galpin Jérémy , Velghe Anthony , Manceau Rémi
Published: June 2019

CFD simulation tools are increasingly used nowadays to design more fuel-efficient and clean Internal Combustion Engines (ICE). Within this framework, there is a need to benefit from a turbulence model which offers the best compromise between prediction capabilities and computational cost. The Hybrid Temporal LES (HTLES) approach is here retained within the perspective of an application to ICE configurations. HTLES is a hybrid Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes/Large Eddy Simulation (RANS/LES) model based on a solid theoretical framework using temporal filtering. The concept is to model the near-wall region in RANS and to solve the turbulent structures in the core region if the temporal and spatial resolutions are fine enough. In this study, a dedicated sub-model called Elliptic Shielding (ES) is added to HTLES in order to ensure RANS in the near-wall region, regardless of the mesh resolution. A modification of the computation of the total kinetic energy and the dissipation rate was introduced as first adaptions of HTLES towards non-stationary ICE configurations. HTLES is a recent approach, which has not been validated in a wide range of applications. The present study intends to further validate HTLES implemented in CONVERGE code by examining three stationary test cases. The first validation consists of the periodic hill case, which is a standard benchmark case to assess hybrid turbulence models. Then, in order to come closer to real ICE simulations, i.e., with larger Reynolds numbers and coarser near-wall resolutions, the method is validated in the case of a channel flow using wall functions and in the steady flow rig case consisting in an open valve at a fixed lift. HTLES results are compared to RANS k-ω SST and wall-modeled LES σ simulations performed with the same grid and the same temporal resolution. Unlike RANS, satisfactory reproduction of the flow recirculation has been observed with HTLES in the case of periodic hills. The channel flow configuration has underlined the capability of HTLES to predict the wall friction properly. The steady flow rig shows that HTLES combines advantages of RANS and LES in one simulation. On the one hand, HTLES yields mean and rms velocities as accurate as LES since the scale-resolving simulation is triggered in the core region. On the other hand, hybrid RANS/LES at the wall provides accurate pressure drop in contrast with LES performed on the same mesh. Future work will be dedicated to the extension of HTLES to non-stationary flows with moving walls in order to be able to tackle realistic ICE flow configurations.

eMap: A Web Application for Identifying and Visualizing Electron or Hole Hopping Pathways in Proteins
Authors: Tazhigulov Ruslan N. , Gayvert James R. , Wei Melissa , Bravaya Ksenia B.
Published: June 2019

eMap is a web-based platform for identifying and visualizing electron or hole transfer pathways in proteins based on their crystal structures. The underlying model can be viewed as a coarse-grained version of the Pathways model, where each tunneling step between hopping sites represented by electron transfer active (ETA) moieties is described with one eﬀective decay parameter that describes protein-mediated tunneling. ETA moieties include aromatic amino acid residue side chains and aromatic fragments of cofactors that are automatically detected, and, in addition, electron/hole residing sites that can be speciﬁed by the users. The software searches for the shortest paths connecting the user-speciﬁed electron/hole source to either all surface-exposed ETA residues or to the user-speciﬁed target. The identiﬁed pathways are ranked based on their length. The pathways are visualized in 2D as a graph, in which each node represents an ETA site, and in 3D using available protein visualization tools. Here, we present the capability and user interface of eMap 1.0, which is available at https://emap.bu.edu.
A new disaggregation induced emission enhancement (DIEE)based probe for cellular detection of copper and lactate
Authors: Gour Nidhi , Kshtriya Vivek Shinh , Singh Dheeraj K , kanth P chandra , Bhatia Dhiraj
Published: June 2019

We report self assembling/aggregation properties of acyl-thiourea derivative, N-((6-methoxy-pyridin-2-yl)carbamothioyl)benzamide(NG1) [i1] and the disaggregation induced emission which leads to its application as fluorescence and colorimetric probe for the sensitive detection of Cu2+. The microscopy analysis of NG1via SEM, and AFM reveal that it self-assembles to give fiber-like morphologies.Interestingly,NG1 also assembles to fluorescent fibers which show tunable emission properties. Addition of Cu2+to these fibers causedisruption/disaggregation of fibers and a golden yellow fluorescence is produced due to disaggregation induced emission enhancement (DIEE). The application of NG1 as selective sensor for copper was further assessed by UV visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. Limit of Detection(LOD) of Cu2+ with colorimetry was 2.5ppm while LOD of Cu2+ with fluorescence was as low as 0.1ppm. This yellow fluorescence is quenched after the addition of lactic acid and hence NG1 could potentially be used for the sequential detection of both Cu and lactate.Further, structural modification of the probe NG1 suggest crucial role of both pyridine and acyl-thiourea moiety in the binding of Cu2+. The experimental results of interaction of NG1 with Cu2+ and lactate were also validated theoretically by quantum chemical calculations based on density functional theory (DFT). Finally, we explore the ability of NG1for the sequential detection of Cu2+ and lactate in cells, which suggestsNG1 can be used effectively for the cellular imaging applications and to selectively sense Cu2+. To, the best of our knowledge, this is the first report wherein a dual sensor for Cu2+and lactate ion is synthesized and it may in allpossibilities pave the way for the diagnosis of Cu2+associated disorders like Wilson’s disease and in the detection of elevated lactate levels which are associated with the wide range of pathologies likemitochondrial diseases, cerebral ischemia and cancer.

Curriculum Reform in Indonesia: Moving from an Exclusive to Inclusive Curriculum
Authors: Mukminin Amirul , Habibi Akhmad , Prasojo Lantip Diat , Idi Abdullah , Hamidah Afreni
Published: June 2019

The goal of education is to foster all students’ intellectual, social, and personal potential to their highest level by providing them with an equitable and equal education irrespective of their characteristics (e.g., ethnicity, social class, language use, religion, and other human differences). Different students and communities should not be excluded in terms of curriculum. At the micro-level classroom, student engagement is central. Teachers should go beyond the prescribed curriculum by working with their students and by including their voices. However, how can students be successful academically and socially if the school curriculum is anchored in the mainstream curriculum, primarily promoting the dominant groups? For example, given that the books, curriculum, and standardised testing are centralised in Indonesia, the content is, of course, generalised for all students. Teachers and schools throughout the country should use the same materials for all students. However, for the disadvantaged children coming from poor, rural, and remote areas, such policies lead them to trouble. They learn the books and materials that are similar to those that the affluent schools and students use in cities, but their values and perspectives are excluded. Also, how can students who are racially, culturally, and linguistically marginalised and low-income families succeed if the curriculum is organised exclusively to maintain the current social structure? The purpose of this paper is to explore the need to move from an exclusive to inclusive curriculum in Indonesia so that all students can succeed academically and socially. The orienting questions for this study are: (1) What do we mean by an exclusive and inclusive curriculum? (2) What are the components of an inclusive curriculum? (3) What should be reformed to create an inclusive curriculum? (4) What kind of leadership is required to guide the reform from an exclusive to an inclusive curriculum?
Understanding the Relation of Policy Discourse and Re-Conceptualising Curriculum: A Kosovo Perspective on a New Meaning of Context
Authors: Saqipi Blerim
Published: June 2019

This article is an analysis of the meaning of context in implementing curriculum reform. It uses an analysis of two Kosovo curriculum reforms in the previous two decades to elaborate on how education systems engage in the transfer of transnational ideas as well as how they face challenges in making those ideas succeed. The article uses Discursive Institutionalism and the debate between the Didaktik and Curriculum Theory Traditions as a framework for analysis to understand the form of ideas and types of discourses that are relevant for successful curriculum reform. While the Kosovo curriculum reform has been struggling to find a balance between the Didaktik and Curriculum Theory traditions, it is evident that two reform projects did not provide sufficient possibilities forcoordinative discourse among key actors in the reform implementation. For reform to succeed, education systems need to balance between both background and foreground ideas as well as communicative and coordinative discourses. In education systems whose professional capacities are limited and whose resources are scarce, such a balance gains greater importance, indicating the need for more school-based development activities. Therefore, the context should not be viewed as solely static, but needs to be assigned a new meaning regarding what it is and should be placed at the service of reform implementation by recognising the importance of critical reflection when adopting a particular curriculum policy orientation and tailoring the discourse for promoting reform ideas.
