How pipefitters obtain visual information from construction assembly drawings
Authors: Sears Matthew , Alruwaythi Omar , Goodrum Paul M.
Published: April 2022

An extensive framework has been developed for studying the behavior of motor vehicle drivers using eye tracking technology. Previous work has revealed strong relationships between driver eye movements and performance, which has resulted in widely accepted guidance within the transportation industry. In this work, the same eye tracking analysis methods were applied to investigate 20 professional pipefitters’ interactions with traditional isometric assembly drawings during a construction pipe model assembly task, in order to begin to understand the strategies that construction craft professionals use to gather visual information from engineering deliverables. A custom web application was developed to quantify and compare the pipefitters’ interactions with the assembly drawings through several visit metrics. Results indicated that the pipefitters’ interactions with the assembly drawings were associated with their performance and spatial cognition; however, the results did not suggest that the pipefitters were adhering to any particular visual information gathering strategies. The authors also investigated whether age or industry experience were associated with differences in visual information gathering strategies, but no significant relationships were observed. The primary contribution of this work is a demonstration of how existing eye tracking analysis methods can be applied to investigate how construction craft professionals extract visual information from engineering deliverables.
Repositioning Engaged Anthropology
Authors: Larsen Peter , Bacalzo Doris , Naef Patrick , Elif Tibet Eda , Baracchini Leïla , Riva Susie
Published: April 2022

This special issue aims to shed light on and recognize the full potential of engaged anthropology and its place in academia and beyond. It argues for an inclusive approach to be both theoretically enriching and methodologically grounded in diverse practices and forms. The introduction addresses common confusions and obstacles distracting engaged anthropology from its core premises and potentials. As the Interface Commission of the Swiss Anthropological Association (SEG), we seek to deepen the conversation about how engagement bolsters the discipline to stay relevant and robust, and embark on new paths of theoretical reflection. By “repositioning” engaged anthropology at the heart of contemporary anthropology, we seek to overcome unproductive dichotomies on engagements and practices by embracing critical reflexivity in the process of knowledge production and social action.

Authors: Özgür Ali , Özekmekçi M. İnanç
Published: April 2022

Deniz güvenliğine yönelik tehditlerden en ölümcül olanı denizde terörizmdir. Saldırıların karaya oranla daha az sayıda olmasına rağmen, meydana gelen birkaç ciddi saldırı göz önüne alındığında, deniz alanlarında terör saldırısı gerçekleşme ihtimali her zaman göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Aksi halde bu saldırılar, telafisi mümkün olmayan vahim sonuçlar ortaya çıkaracaktır. Günümüzde denizde terör saldırısı gerçekleşme ihtimalinin en yüksek olduğu denizlerden biri de Akdeniz’dir. Yakın geçmişte, özellikle Suriye ve Libya’daki iç savaşlar, Arap ülkelerindeki siyasi çalkantılar ve DAEŞ gibi radikal terör gruplarının ortaya çıkması başta olmak üzere yaşanan kriz ve istikrarsızlıklar Akdeniz Havzası’ndaki olası terör tehdidini ciddi ölçüde arttırmıştır. Bu çerçevede bölgesel bir güvenlik aktörü olan Avrupa Birliği (AB), deniz güvenliğini güçlendirmek ve Akdeniz'deki olası terör tehdidiyle mücadele etmek için birtakım önlemler almıştır. Makalede, Akdeniz bölgesindeki terör tehdidinin hangi düzeyde olduğunun belirlenmesi ve AB’nin terörle mücadele önlemlerinin analiz edilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Analiz çift yönlüdür. Makalede ilk olarak, Akdeniz'de rapor edilen fiili terör saldırıları kapsamlı bir şekilde incelenmektedir. Ardından da terörizmle mücadele etmek ve sorunu çözebilmek için AB tarafından alınan önlemler detaylı bir şekilde analiz edilmektedir.

La Revista científica Pakamuros abarca temáticas multidisciplinarias (Ingeniería, Educación y Salud), relevantes para coincidir con el camino a la consecución de los objetivos del desarrollo sostenible (ODS) de nuestros territorios. En este sentido, la agricultura está involucrada directa e indirectamente en todos los ODS, convirtiéndose en actividad de interés de primer nivel. Por tanto, el actual Gobierno Peruano (de Pedro Castillo) propuso cinco ejes para la consecución de una Segunda Reforma Agraria, asumiendo que su propuesta le dará sostenibilidad principalmente a los pequeños agricultores. Considero entonces que, los ejes de: 1) Ajustes a la franja de precios, 2) Planta de fosfatos en Bayóvar, 3) Compras públicas de alimentos, 4) Cuidado del agua, 5) Asociatividad y cooperativismo, no son suficientes para cubrir las brechas cada vez más grandes en los eslabones económicos, sociales, ambientales y técnico-productivos, que se necesitan ser re-planteados y formulados con la profundidad que amerita. Los manuscritos publicados en la Revista Pakamuros colaborarán con información básica y aplicada, para el análisis de esta problemática agrícola, ya sea de manera directa o indirecta, y que parece no tener aún, una luz abierta en el camino.  Asumimos entonces, el compromiso, de usar la transferencia de ciencia y tecnología como un cimiento para la construcción de nuestros territorios bajo un enfoque transdisciplinario.
Computational Prediction of the Performance Map of a Transonic Axial Flow Compressor
Authors: Moumen Idres  , Muhamad Adi Muqri Saiful Azmi
Published: April 2022

Aviation fuel efficiency is an important target for aviation industry. Aircraft engine compression ratio is a key factor to improve fuel consumption. Compression ratio can be increased using transonic compressor. In this study, performance prediction of a transonic axial compressor at design and off-design operating conditions is investigated numerically using ANSYS-CFX software. The compressor is NASA Rotor 37. Firstly, the performance at design point is predicted, where mesh independence study is performed to determine suitable mesh size. Three-dimensional flow details for meridional plane, blade-to-blade plane and airfoil surface are explored. The design point study successfully captured flow features such as shock waves and flow separation regions. When compared with experimental data, the predicted compressor pressure ratio deviation error is less than 5%. 3D flow details show that shock wave strength increases from hub to tip. The shock wave moves backward as we move from hub to tip indicating that the flow separation covers lesser portion of the blade. Secondly, off-design performance is predicted for various rotational speeds. A simple procedure is utilized to predict surge and choke limits. The predicted compressor map is compared with experimental data and it shows overall root mean square error less than 5%. The success of the method developed in this research make it a viable method to be used in the design phase of transonic compressors to evaluate the effect of design modifications for both design and off-design operating conditions.
Analysis of Hemodynamic on Different Stent Strut Configurations in Femoral Popliteal Artery
Authors: Nur Farahalya Razhali  , Ishkrizat Taib
Published: April 2022

Peripheral arterial disease is a narrowing of the peripheral arteries that might result in blockage if not immediately treated. Normally, an invasive technique called stenting is used at the stenosed arterial region to restore normal blood flow. Furthermore, the impact of physiological stresses on the stented arterial wall may worsen the condition and divert blood away from the main direction of flow. This phenomenon may promote the formation of thrombosis in the stented artery due to the presenting flow recirculation. This study aims to investigate the effect of physiological loads with different hemodynamic factors on the strut configuration in Peripheral arterial. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is governed by continuity and Navier-Stokes equations were implemented. Three-dimensional geometries of the different strut configurations inserted into the peripheral artery are modelled. Each of the struts has different characteristics in terms of strut angle and the number of strut configurations. Due to hemodynamic differences, the pulsatile waveform of the velocity and pressure at the peak systole time were investigated. Hemodynamic factors analysed in this study consist of wall shear stress (WSS), velocity, and pressure. From the result, the prediction of thrombosis formation is around 30% higher for the largest number of strut design. The lowest formation of thrombosis was seen with the fewer strut configurations and the reduction of the strut angle with an overall percentage of 15%.

Authors: Hamzeh T. Alkasasbeh
Published: April 2022

In this study, heat transfer flow of Casson hybrid nanofluid over vertical stretching sheet with magnetic field effect is studied. Copper oxide and graphite oxide in methanol are considered as the hybrid nanoparticles. This analysis of study points out several aspects of flow physically which is related to transportation of heat. The conservation of partial differential equations (PDEs) are taken place into non-linear coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using transformation of dimensionless variables, and solution of these ODEs is performed using Chebyshev differential quadrature method (CDQM). Effects of many involved parameters like M, , , a/c, denotes the magnetic parameter, Casson parameter, the nanoparticles volume fraction and ratio parameter are shown through tables for skin friction and Nusselt number. Moreover, it is presented as sketching on temperature and velocity profiles briefly. Results revealed that the Casson hybrid nanofluid has highest value when <1 for Nusselt number, skin friction, and temperature profile. Moreover, it is lowest value when >1 for velocity profile and Nusselt number. It also is observed that, when the magnetic field and Cason parameter increase, this leads to an increase in the temperature profile and a decrease in the Nusselt number and the velocity profile. A comparison study is also made which compares the present result with published data is executed and findings meet with them.

Background: Hyperthyroidism is associated with an increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the hyperdynamic state, which is reversible after restoring euthyroidism. However, long-term follow-up of renal dysfunction in patients with hyperthyroidism has not been performed.Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study using the Korean National Health Insurance database and biannual health checkup data. We included 41,778 Graves’ disease (GD) patients and 41,778 healthy controls, matched by age and sex. The incidences of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) were calculated in GD patients and controls. The cumulative dose and duration of antithyroid drugs (ATDs) were calculated for each patient and categorized into the highest, middle, and lowest tertiles.Results: Among 41,778 GD patients, 55 ESRD cases occurred during 268,552 person-years of follow-up. Relative to the controls, regardless of smoking, drinking, or comorbidities, including chronic kidney disease, GD patients had a 47% lower risk of developing ESRD (hazard ratio [HR], 0.53; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.37 to 0.76). In particular, GD patients with a higher baseline GFR (≥90 mL/min/1.73 m2; HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.11 to 0.99), longer treatment duration (>33 months; HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.17 to 0.58) or higher cumulative dose (>16,463 mg; HR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.15 to 0.57) of ATDs had a significantly reduced risk of ESRD.Conclusion: This was the first epidemiological study on the effect of GD on ESRD, and we demonstrated that GD population had a reduced risk for developing ESRD.

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the growth and development of the world economy. Therefore, there needs to be changes or innovations that must make to improve economic conditions, one of which is through the development of online marketing (E-commerce), which has begun to be implemented by MSMEs in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the e-commerce strategy to increase the development of MSME innovation in the new normal era. This research shows that e-commerce readiness is very important in times of uncertainty, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The level of readiness will determine the viability and sustainability of a company or business in a volatile business environment. E-commerce can evaluate readiness based on Technology Readiness, Organizational Readiness, and Environmental Readiness. However, not all perspectives are considered in making decisions about implementing or improving e-commerce during the pandemic.
TOWARDS A RITUALIZED PUBLIC SPACE ABOVE DIVISIONS: CREATIVE (RE)CONSTRUCTION OF CHILDREN’S RITES OF PASSAGE
Authors: Mendel Maria , Kłonkowska Anna Maria
Published: April 2022

The article refers to anthropological, sociological and pedagogical aspects of reframing – in a creative way – the rituals addressed to children at the threshold of puberty. Based on a presentation of a new ritual of farewell to childhood, the paper is a theoretical reflection on the need of introducing new rituals that create ground for animation-educational practice. This practice – by revivifying creativity in areas considered so far closed and exclusive – makes it possible to overcome socially unfavourable structures of performance, and the inceptions of new, legitimized and empowering forms of subjective representations. Ritual’s creative qualities – in Victor Turner’s conceptualization – have inspired the authors to emphasize the need to replace a hegemony of thinking with a heterogeneity of thinking about the rites of passage. This undertaking is directed towards creating a space in social consciousness for rituals that are other than religious ones. Following Gert Biesta’s thinking, we argue that the farewell to childhood in the form we propose can be seen as an expression of pedagogical interruption and a practice of commonality which is a common good, one endlessly fragile and requiring cultivation. The secular children’s rite of passage and other secular rituals that arise not in opposition to religious rituals, but alongside them, are such common goods.

Abstract
Objective: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by changes in the structure of the subchondral articular cartilage. Chondrocytes are responsible for the synthesis and integrity of the extracellular matrix of articular cartilage. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is believed to have a potential protective effect on joint cartilage through chondroprotective.
Materials and methods: This study is experimental research (pre and post-test control group design) with 20 samples divided into five groups, each consisting of four samples. Four different dosages of HA have been given to the treatment group: 0.1 mg/ml, 1 mg/ml, 2 mg/ml, and 3 mg/ml. Subsequently, collagen type II (COL2) and type X (COL10) were examined using the ELISA method, and data were analyzed with SPSS 20.0
Result: Our study revealed that COL2 expression was not significantly different between the control group and 0.1 mg/ml. Interestingly, with 1 mg/ml of HA, there was a markedly significant increase in the expression of COL2 (p < 0,05), and a further increase in dosage did not give an incremental effect. Conversely, treatment of HA significantly suppressed the expression of COL10, but no enhanced suppression was found with increasing dose. 
Conclusion: The administration of HA results in an increased number of COL2 and reduced number of COL10 and has the potential function of inhibiting the degeneration process in joint cartilage.
Halyomorpha halys invasion front jumps 1,500 kilometres to reach the Canary Islands; a framework for rapid response, identification of urgent questions, and assessment of potential impacts

Published: April 2022

Early detection and rapid response are cornerstones of effective invasive species management. However, these strategies can be challenging to implement when the arrival of a non-native species has not been predicted, as may be the case when a species is discovered large distances from known populations. Brown marmorated stink bugs Halyomorpha halys are rapidly spreading across much of the world, causing substantial economic losses to agriculture as well as nuisance when entering houses to overwinter communally. Multiple individuals were recently confirmed in the Canary archipelago, marking a dramatic range expansion into subtropical Atlantic areas and the northwest African region. The potential establishment of this major pest species in this region raises important questions on its ecological adaptation to new climatic and biotic conditions an as well as the unknown impacts and control effectiveness in novel host crop plants such as banana. Previous attempts to control H. halys elsewhere have been typically only partially successful but we suggest eradication in the Canary Islands might still be possible and a sensible goal. Within a conceptual framework we review potential management options and encourage local authorities and stakeholders to implement specific surveillance, control and biosecurity measures aiming to swiftly eradicate this species. Not doing so risks a potentially severe invasion by this species across the region and significant damage to the local agricultural and ornamental plant economy. Our framework provides a basis for rapid response and management in other scenarios where an unexpected non-native species is detected.

Published: April 2022

Introduction. Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) is a well-recognized factor as a quality metric for pediatric cardiac surgical programs. Most of the risk factors for PMV are described and analyzed. Some authors had established predictive models to detect proactively patients in risk for PMV. This study aims to develop a new predictive model, based on vasoactive-ventilation-renal (VVR) score, for PMV after congenital heart surgery (CHS) in pediatric patients. Material and Methods. Medical ﬁ les of patients 0-18 y who underwent heart surgery in 2016 and 2017 were reviewed. Patients that met the inclusion criteria were studied. PMV was deﬁ ned as invasive mechanical ventilation ≥ 96 h. The patients were divided in two groups according to duration of mechanical ventilation: group 1-patients with PMV, group 2-patients without PMV. The focus was set on VVR score and ﬂ uid overload in the ﬁ rst 48 hours after the operation. Data were presented as medians with IQR or as means ± standard deviation. A non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test, binary logistic regression test and ROC curve analysis integrated in the statistical software SPSS 24.0 were used. A value of P < 0.05 was considered signiﬁ cant. Results. 438 patients were operated in 2016 and 2017 and 384 of them were included in the study. 80 patients (20.8%) needed PMV (group 1) and 304 (79.2%) did not need PMV (group 2). There was a statistical signiﬁ cance between group 1 and group 2 concerning the peak VVR for the day of operation 58,25(33,48) vs. 25,65(19,8) and cumulative ﬂ uid overload in % for the ﬁ rst 48hours +2,54(13,29) vs. – 1,19(3,4). After combining this two factors in a predictive model, the ROC curve analysis showed AUC 0,903 (95% CI 0,863-0,944) with sensitivity of 86.25% and speciﬁ city of 82,57%. Conclusion. Combining VVR and cumulative ﬂ uid overload, resulted in establishment of a new reliable predictive model for PMV after CHS in pediatric patients in our Center.
An Integrative Review of Incivility in Nursing Education
Authors: Butler April M. , Strouse Susan M.
Published: April 2022

Background:

Incivility is a persistent problem in nursing education, with research documenting this phenomenon for more than 40 years. Left unaddressed, incivility persists as nursing students enter the profession, influencing patient outcomes. This integrative review describes the current literature on incivility in nursing education. Concept mapping of this integrative review revealed many facets and participants in this ongoing problem.

Method:

Torraco's method guided this integrative review. Databases searched included Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, ProQuest, and PubMed for research studies.

Results:

Twenty-four research studies were identified for inclusion in this integrative review.

Conclusion:

Incivility in nursing education is well documented in the research literature. Intervention studies mainly focused on changing the behaviors of students without considering the way in which faculty contribute to the problem of incivility. Concept mapping assisted in identifying commonalities in uncivil behaviors experienced by students and faculty. Future interventions may focus on un-civil behaviors demonstrated by both groups.

Isolation and Marginalization: Exploring Attrition of Men in Preregistration Nursing Programs
Authors: Taylor James , Marland Glenn , Whitford Heather , Carson Maggie , Leece Richard
Published: April 2022

Background:

In Scotland, similar to other countries, male nursing students have a high attrition rate. This study examined the reasons for and ways to decrease the attrition rate.

Method:

This four-phase collaborative study included four Scottish universities. Phase 1 involved three telephone interviews with men who had left a nursing program. Phases 2 through 4 used focus groups and interviews with 18 nursing students (13 men and 5 women) and 12 nurse lecturers. Thematic analysis followed a four-stage process.

Results:

Male nursing students in this study felt isolated and marginalized, were stereotyped regarding their masculinity and physical attributes, had difficulty communicating, and were reluctant to seek help. Financial pressures and access to learning opportunities also disproportionately affected male students. Resilience and maturity are required to cope with these challenges.

Conclusion:

Proactive measures and visible role models in academic and clinical environments are needed to support male students in completing their nursing education.

Authors: Patten Palmer Sheri , Reed Shelly , Heaston Sondra
Published: April 2022

Background:

The current diverse health care environment makes it vital for nursing students to have multicultural respect and understanding. Collaborative action research can be used to engage students in the learning process.

Method:

Action research addressing adolescent pregnancy in rural Paraguay involved nursing students in the research process and care delivery.

Results:

Two groups of nursing students participated in two or more cycles of action research. The first cycle included identifying the problem, research development, data gathering, and interpreting results. Contributing factors to adolescent pregnancy and potential solutions were discovered. Teaching reproductive education informed the second cycle of the action research. Students created reproductive education modules and taught them to more than 700 adolescents in Paraguay.

Conclusion:

Action research provided a collaborative and engaging method to teach undergraduate nursing students about both global health advocacy and the research process. The cyclic nature of action research provides an excellent way to involve subsequent student groups.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has created a need for nurses who are perseverant and passionate, the definition of grit. This study examined grit levels in Master in Nursing (MSN) and Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students.

Method:

MSN and DNP students were surveyed using the Grit-S scale, which is composed of two parts: Grit-CI (consistency of interest) and Grit-PE (perseverance of effort).

Results:

Overall, graduate nursing students had high levels of grit as measured by the Grit-S (
M
= 3.9,
SD
= 0.5). Perseverance was higher for both MSN and DNP students than passion (
M
= 4.2,
SD
= 0.5 vs.
M
= 3.6,
SD
= 0.7). There was no difference in Grit-S levels related to program type.

Conclusion:

Graduate nursing students had high levels of grit. With the challenges faced by nursing professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses with high grit levels may avoid burnout and persevere though challenges.

Engaging Older Adults in a Depression Simulation Experience
Authors: Anthony Jean S. , Wagner Robin , Sampsel Debi
Published: April 2022

Background:

Clinical simulation has become integral to curriculum development in nursing programs. This innovative intervention was designed to explore the efficacy of high-fidelity standardized patient (SP) simulation to increase students' ability to recognize signs of depression and to improve therapeutic communication.

Method:

During a 12-month period, prelicensure nursing students (
n
= 136) in a midwestern nursing program participated in this simulation experience. Volunteer retirees residing in the college-affiliated retirement village played the roles of depressed patients.

Results:

Students' self-evaluations indicated this experience was a positive learning experience. All of the students indicated the experience improved their knowledge about depression; 91% stated their confidence in interviewing improved, and 89.7% indicated improvement in their communication skills.

Conclusion:

Use of SP simulation in mental health nursing is an effective strategy to bolster confidence, improve depression screening skills, and enhance therapeutic communication skills.

The surface current of Ekman flows with time-dependent eddy viscosity
Authors: Roberti Luigi
Published: April 2022

In this paper we investigate transients in the oceanic Ekman layer in the presence of time-varying winds and a constant-in-depth but time dependent eddy viscosity, where the initial state is taken to be the steady state corresponding to the initial wind and the initial eddy viscosity. For this specific situation, a formula for the evolution of the surface current can be derived explicitly. We show that, if the wind and the eddy viscosity converge toward constant values for large times, under mild assumptions on their convergence rate the solution converges toward the corresponding steady state. The time evolution of the surface current and the surface deflection angle is visualized with the aid of simple numerical plots for some specific examples.
Bounded consensus of double-integrator stochastic multi-agent systems
Authors: Luo Mei , Wang Jinrong , Liao Yumei
Published: April 2022

In the framework of fixed topology and stochastic switching topologies, we study the mean-square bounded consensus(MSBC) of double-integrator stochastic multi-agent systems(SMASs) including additive system noises and communication noises. Combining algebra, graph theory and random analysis, we obtain several equivalent conditions for double-integrator SMASs to reach MSBC. In addition, the simulation examples also verify the correctness of the theoretical results.
Témoignage d’une crise de mortalité au Chasséen ancien : la sépulture en puits de Manduel (Gard)

Published: April 2022

Des restes humains ont été découverts dans la partie inférieure d’un puits du Néolithique moyen chasséen lors de la fouille du site de Fumerian (resp. A. Hasler, Inrap) à Manduel près de Nîmes dans le Gard.Ces restes squelettiques se rapportent à huit individus, trois adultes et cinq sujets immatures, qui ont été inhumés à l’état de cadavres frais dans un laps de temps relativement court.Les questions qui se posent pour ce dépôt inhabituel sont de plusieurs ordres. Elles concernent, d’une part, des aspects biologiques liés au recrutement et au profil de mortalité des inhumés et, d’autre part, des aspects archéologiques relatifs au caractère sépulcral ou non de la gestion de ces décès rapprochés.

This paper aims to present the context, the methodological approaches and the results of a research project, called ORIMIL and funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR). An integrative multi-proxy analysis, in collaboration with the Musée des Confluences in Lyon, has been designed to identify whether the region of the South Caucasus was also a hotbed of millet domestication and expansion, like China. The results from the fields of anthropology, archaeozoology, archaeobotany, geomorphology and isotopic biogeochemistry for the territories of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia did not reveal the presence of an early Neolithic or Early Bronze Age hub of millet domestication. Isotopic data associated with direct radiocarbon dating on bones showed that millet was consumed by animals and humans at the earliest towards the end of the Middle Bronze Age (1621-1450 cal BC) in Georgia. These results are in keeping with (1) the numerous direct radiocarbon dates on charred millet seeds and (2) the geomorphological studies showing an increase of better soil quality and cultivable areas during the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods in the Kura valley.
Les productions céramiques en Sardaigne au IVe millénaire av. J.-C. Nouvelles données sur le village de Su Coddu-Canelles (Selargius, Cagliari)
Authors: Melis Maria Grazia , Piras Stefania
Published: April 2022

Cette étude fait partie du projet de recherche de l’Université de Sassari « Archéologie des habitats préhistoriques sardes », dirigé par Maria Grazia Melis. Le but principal est la reconstitution du cadre environnemental et socio-économique des phases finales du Néolithique sarde et du début du Chalcolithique, caractérisé par les ultimes aspects du « phénomène » Ozieri. La première étape de la recherche a été consacrée à l’analyse typologique de la céramique dérivée d’Ozieri des IVe et IIIe millénaires av. J.-C., et a impliqué la réorganisation des données publiées, l’élaboration d’une sériation et d’une hypothèse de séquence culturelle. Par la suite, la fouille du village de Su Coddu-Canelles (Selargius, Cagliari) a permis l’acquisition de données primaires et de nouvelles datations 14C, qui confirment la séquence déterminée par l’analyse typologique. Enfin l’étude morpho-technologique de la production artisanale a montré son caractère « opportuniste » qui nous amène à une nouvelle vision de l’organisation de la production et de l’économie du village.
Varieties of experience in navigating disaster:
Authors: LOVELL Anne M.
Published: April 2022

The qualitative, undifferentiated time of disaster affords propitious moments, requiring quick action by those in its midst. During Katrina, the rapidly transforming watery world of New Orleans created new resistances and lines of flow. In the absence of government-organized disaster assistance during Katrina, some New Orleanians already long afflicted with chronic mental illnesses were left to navigate the flooded city on their own, as this essay captures from oral histories gathered and observations made over four years. For some long disabled by severe mental illness, surviving the disaster resembled their life pattern of circuitous movement, the survivors appearing caught up in a circular pattern of water, floating along with no external force to push against or momentum to be retrieved. Their particular mode evokes pre-steam engine era sailors stuck in the Doldrums, the Equatorial belt where atmospheric conditions deprive the sea of wind-force and momentum. Yet others deviated from the usual everyday scripts in which they were ensconced, be they those of patient-clinician routines or of stigmatizing encounters in public places. Rather than stagnating, these survivors moved along, improvising at every turn, divinely realized or sheer happenstance. They interacted with the disaster’s undercurrents, crafting temporary solutions through chance encounters and found resources. Such wayfarers place-mark a world wide open, even for those whose lives are usually confined to a circuit of institutions and marginal spaces that stymie agency and narrow relational possibilities. Mark Bradford’s Katrina-inspired art resonates with such varieties of experience, from exclusion to the possibility of community and rebirth, however momentary.
Les épreuves de la folie
Authors: MOUTAUD Baptiste
Published: April 2022

La folie constitue dans la modernité occidentale un univers d’altérité et d’altération qui ouvre à l’exploration et à l’expérimentation des formes du vivant humain. Elle met tout autant à l’épreuve les épistémologies scientifiques qu’elle donne accès à une représentation singulière de la réalité et participe à la construction de notre monde commun. Les contributions de ce numéro explorent ces thèmes sur trois niveaux intimement imbriqués : les expériences, les expérimentations, et les matérialités de la folie.
Do Listed Companies' Technological Innovations Make Institutional Investors' “Group Holdings” More Favorable?
Authors: Liu Jia , Li Qingru , Lin Chunyan
Published: April 2022

This paper constructs a dynamic panel threshold model with a sample of firms in the Chinese A-share market. We analyse the non-linear relationship and the mechanisms between the two. The study found that there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between corporate technology innovation and institutional investors’ group holdings, and an inverse N-shaped relationship between corporate technology innovation output and institutional investors’ group holdings. And when we add the innovation input to a lag operator, the model calculations are similar to the inverse N-type non-linear model of innovation output, and the two innovation indicators are consistent. When institutional investors feel the sentiment and the “pass the parcel” in the market, they will exit the group because of the risk factor. Although technological innovation in companies will contribute to their long-term development, it is important to be more aware of the risks involved. Excessive levels of investment will still be subject to external financing constraints.
