Authors: Milojević Mia , Brumini Ivan , Crnković Ivana
Published: June 2020

Stress in the workplace represents a specific type of stress, stemming from the work environment. Stressful situations at work can trigger negative emotions that are linked with anxiety, tension, depression, fatigue and lack of working motivation. The aim of this research is to investigate differences in the perception of stress of physiotherapists employed in various departments. The research was conducted using an online questionnaire aimed at 123 physiotherapists in the Republic of Croatia. The results have showed that respondents perceived their workplace as moderately stressful. Considering the difference in the experience and perception of stress with regard to the department where physiotherapists work, the results have showed that there is a statistically significant difference in the level of perceived stress among the respondents with regard to the department in which they are employed. It was found that respondents employed in orthopaedics perceived stress to a lesser extent than those individuals employed in health centres and in the department of physical medicine and rehabilitation. The differences in the perception of stress among the respondents who are employed in other departments have shown no statistically significant difference. It was shown that the respondents of 20–25 years of age were found to exhibit statistically significantly lower levels of perceived stress compared to subjects of 26–36 years of age. There is no noted statistically significant difference in the perception of stress among other age groups. It was determined that participants with a lower net monthly salary exhibit statistically significant greater lever of perceived stress in comparison to participants with a net monthly salary that is greater than the average. The results of the study have shown that there are no statistically significant differences in the level of perceived stress among respondents in terms of gender, length of service, level of education or marital status.

Published: June 2020

The purpose of this study is to examine the predictive effect of father-child relationship on peer relationships of young children. The population of the study comprised of 5–6 year-old children (N=105), who were attending the kindergarten class of primary schools affiliated to the Ministry of National Education in Denizli, as well as their fathers. A relational survey method was used in this study. A Personal Information Form, developed by the researchers, Child-Parent Relationship Scale (Father Form), the Child Behaviour Scale, and the Peer Victimization Scale were used to collect data of the study. Father-child relationship significantly predicted levels of prosocial, aggressive, asocial, excluded, hyperactivity-distractible, and peer victimization behaviours of young children. Accordingly, it could be concluded that father-child relationship is effective on peer relationships of young children

Authors: Razavinia Nasim , Mydlarski Laurent
Published: June 2020

Understanding the role and responsibilities of Professional Engineers is of immediate relevance to those who aspire to enter the profession. These obligations most prominently manifest themselves in three of the twelve graduate attributes: Professionalism; the Impact of engineering on society and the environment; and Ethics and equity. Following an analysis of the curriculum map of programs that was performed as part of the CEAB-mandated Continual Improvement process at McGill University, it was concluded that our students could benefit from additional training in the aforementioned three graduate attributes. To this end, a required, 0-credit, online course was created to further expose and train Engineering students in all programs on these three important topics. The present paper will i) review the motivation behind the creation of this new course, ii) describe the evolution of its format and design, and iii) discuss the course’s contents and implementation.

Published: June 2020

Open Education Resources are pedagogical resources which are available under open licences for reuse and remixing. These resources support collaborative development of education material, the ongoing evolution and improvement of the material and easy access to both educators and students. Several initiatives exist for OER in Canada, and resources specifically targeting engineering are beginning to emerge. At the moment, those efforts are fragmented. In line with the mission to the Canadian Engineering Education Association (CEEA) OER SIG, this paper presents an overview of current Canadian and international Engineering OER initiatives. Based on the findings, several challenges and opportunities pertaining to engineering OER are identified and recommendations are provided for engineering instructors and institutions who wish to increase the use of OER in engineering programs. For instructors, this could be adapting OER where available. For those looking to develop OER, there may be grants and resources at the institutional and provincial levels to support this. For institutions, this may be supporting instructors in using or developing OER through grants or recognition.
INTERNATIONAL FIELD SCHOOL FOR FIRST-YEAR ENGINEERING STUDENTS
Authors: Dick Brian , Nguyen Thai Son , Sillem Mackenzie
Published: June 2020

Engineering graduates increasingly find that they are part of teams that draw a multi-disciplinary membership across a broad range of cultural, socio-economic, and linguistic backgrounds. Although engineering students often have the opportunity to participate in international projects (e.g. co-operative education programs, study abroad), formal international field schools are not typical within engineering curricula, particularly at the first- and second-year level. To provide an early introduction to intercultural perspectives, first-year engineering students at Vancouver Island University (VIU) participated in a field school at Tra Vinh University (TVU) in Tra Vinh Province, Vietnam over a period of three weeks. This field school consisted of a number of cultural and engineering activities, and involved pairing of students at both TVU and VIU for the duration of the experience. To measure student response during the field school, participating VIU students completed the on-line Intercultural Effectiveness Scale questionnaire pre- and post-experience. Students at both institutions also completed reflection exercises throughout the three-week period. This feedback suggested each student pairing continuously developed skills necessary to overcome linguistic, cultural, and technical barriers to learning and growing over their time together. Students described an enhanced understanding of self, and an increased likelihood to further participate in intercultural experiences.

Anti-epidemic measures during the First World War: a regional aspect (case of Arkhangelsk province)
Authors: Troshina T. I.
Published: June 2020

Relevance. Anti-epidemic support of the rear in the wartime is an important component of the health of civilians and military personnel, as well as a guarantee of the implementation of defense measures, since the risk of emergence and rapid spread of infectious diseases in such circumstances increases.

Intention – to analyze the efforts of the authorities and medical community regarding the anti-epidemic prevention (based on a concrete example of the Arkhangelsk province during the First World War).

Methodology. The article is based on original archival sources kept in the State Archive of the Arkhangelsk region, in the funds of the medical department of the Arkhangelsk provincial board of the Arkhangelsk province and the health department of the Arkhangelsk town executive committee, which are correspondence on issues of sanitary and medical nature, reports of medical inspectors, reports on the epidemic situation in the province in 1914–1917.

Results and Discussion. A system of interaction between central and regional authorities is presented. Specific practical measures aimed at preventing the spread of epidemics are analyzed. This work was carried out in several directions. A strict sanitary and epidemiological control was carried out regarding vulnerable groups of the population (first of all, numerous workers engaged in construction of defense facilities). Outbreak response measures were developed. For the same purposes, preventive measures were taken in Arkhangelsk and in all counties of the province, preparatory work was carried out to deploy quarantine barracks, if necessary.

Conclusion. The material presented in the article shows that during the First World War the efforts of the state apparatus, local authorities, public and community initiative managed to keep under control the sanitary and medical situation and prevent its negative scenario. The epidemiological disadvantage of the following years is explained by the destruction of the state apparatus and aggravation of social problems due to the Revolution and the Civil War.

Identification of Potent Inhibitors of ATP Synthase Subunit C (AtpE) from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Using in Silico Approach
Authors: Alhaji Isa Mustafa
Published: June 2020

ATP synthase subunit c (AtpE) is an enzyme that catalyzes the production of ATP from ADP in the presence of sodium or proton gradient from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). This enzyme considered an essential target for drug design and its shares the same pathway with the target of Isoniazid. Thus, this enzyme would serve as an alternative target of the Isoniazid. The 3D model structure of the AtpE was constructed based on the principle of the homology modeling using the Modeller9.16. The developed model was subjected to the energy minimization and refinement using molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. The minimized model structure was searched against Zinc and PubChem database to determine ligands that bind to the enzyme with minimum binding energy using RASPD and PyRx tool. A total of 4776 compounds capable of binding to AtpE with minimum binding energies were selected. These compounds further screened for physicochemical properties (Lipinski rule of five). All the compounds that possessed the desirable properties selected and used for molecular docking analysis. Five (5) compounds with minimum binding energies ranged between ─8.69, and ─8.44kcal/mol, less than the free binding energy of ATP were selected. These compound further screened for the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADME and toxicity) properties. Of the five compounds, three (ZINC14732869, ZINC14742188, and ZINC12205447) fitted all the ADME and toxicity properties and subjected to MD simulation and Molecular Mechanics Generalized Born and Surface Area (MM-GBSA) analyses. The results indicated that the ligands formed relatively stable complexes and had free binding energies, less than the binding energy of the ATP. Therefore, these ligands considered as prospective inhibitors of MTB after successful experimental validation

Published: June 2020

Objective There is an increased interest in drug repurposing against Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) as its spread has significantly outpaced development of effective therapeutics. Our aim is to identify approved drugs that can inhibit the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) that is critical for coronavirus infection. Methods The published crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-ACE2 receptor interaction was first analyzed for druggable binding pockets. The binding interface was then probed by an integrated virtual screening protocol executed by a high-performance computer cluster, involving docking and consensus scoring using various machine-learning, empirical and knowledge-based scoring functions. The consensus-ranked lists of screened drugs were generated via ‘rank-by-rank’ and ‘rank-by-number’ schemes. Findings Although spike protein and ACE2 lacked druggable pockets in their unbound forms, they presented a well-defined pocket when bound together. Accordingly, we identified many drugs with high binding potential against this protein-protein interaction pocket. Importantly, several antivirals against two major (+)ssRNA viruses (HCV and HIV) constituted major group of our top hits, of which Atazanavir, Grazoprevir, Saquinavir, Simeprevir, Telaprevir and Tipranavir could be of most importance for immediate experimental/clinical investigations. Additional notable hits included many anti-inflammatory/antioxidant, antibiotic/antifungal, and other relevant compounds with proven activity against respiratory diseases, further emphasizing robustness of our current study. Notably, we also discovered Maraviroc, the only FDA-approved drug capable of targeting virus-host interaction and blocking HIV entry. Conclusion Our newly identified compounds warrant further experimental investigation against SARS-CoV-2 spike-ACE2 interaction, which if proven effective may present much-needed immediate clinical potential against Covid-19.
Redox-neutral Photocatalytic C-H Carboxylation of Arenes and Styrenes with CO2

Published: June 2020

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an attractive one-carbon (C1) building block in terms of sustainability and abundance. However, its low reactivity limits applications in organic synthesis as typically high-energy reagents are required to drive transformations. Here, we present a redox-neutral C−H carboxylation of arenes and styrenes using a photocatalytic approach. Upon blue-light excitation, the anthrolate anion photocatalyst is able to reduce many aromatic compounds to their corresponding radical anions, which react with CO2 to afford carboxylic acids. High-throughput screening and computational analysis suggest that a correct balance between electron affinity and nucleophilicity of substrates is essential. This novel methodology enables the carboxylation of numerous aromatic compounds, including many that are not tolerated in classical carboxylation chemistry. Over 50 examples of C−H functionalizations using CO2 or ketones illustrate a broad applicability. The method opens new opportunities for late-stage C−H carboxylation and valorization of common arenes.

Published: June 2020

Reversible lithium metal anodes that can achieve high rate capabilities are necessary for next generation energy storage systems. Solid electrolyte can act as a barrier for unwanted physical and chemical decomposition that lead to unstable electrodeposition (e.g. dendrite and filament growth). The formation and growth of filaments is tied to unique chemo-mechanical properties that exists at buried solid|solid interfaces. Herein, in situ tomography of Li|LLZO|Li cells is carried out to track morphological transformations in Li metal electrodes and buried solid|solid interfaces during stripping and plating processes. Optimized experimental parameters provide high resolution, high contrast reconstructions that enable lithium metal visualization. Machine learning and image processing tools are combined to quantify changes in lithium metal during stripping and plating. The analysis enables quantifying local current densities and pore size distribution in lithium metal during cycling experiments. Hotspots in lithium metal are correlated with microstructural anisotropy in the solid electrolyte. Modeling studies show large heterogeneity in transport and mechanical properties of electrolyte at the electrode|electrolyte interfaces. Regions with lower effective properties (transport and mechanical) are nuclei for failure. Failure is attributed to microstructural heterogeneities in the solid electrolyte that lead to high local stress and flux distributions.

It has been shown that light-matter strong coupling of materials can lead to modified and often improved properties which has stimulated considerable interest. While charge transport can be enhanced in n-type organic semiconductors by coupling the electronic transition and thereby splitting the conduction band into polaritonic states, it is not clear whether the same process can also influence carrier transport in the valence band of p-type semiconductors. Here we demonstrate for the first time that it is indeed possible to enhance both the conductivity and photoconductivity of a p-type semiconductor rr-P3HT that is ultra-strongly coupled to plasmonic modes. It is due to the hybrid light-matter character of the virtual polaritonic excitations affecting the linear-response of the material. Furthermore, in addition to being enhanced, the photoconductivity of rr-P3HT shows modified spectral response due to the formation of the hybrid polaritonic states. This illustrates the potential of engineering the vacuum electromagnetic environment to improve the opto-electronic properties of organic materials.

Numerical Simulation of Conservation Laws with Moving Grid Nodes: Application to Tsunami Wave Modelling
Authors: Khakimzyanov Gayaz , Dutykh Denys , Mitsotakis Dimitrios , Shokina Nina Yu
Published: June 2020

In the present article, we describe a few simple and efficient finite volume type schemes on moving grids in one spatial dimension combined with an appropriate predictor–corrector method to achieve higher resolutions. The underlying finite volume scheme is conservative, and it is accurate up to the second order in space. The main novelty consists in the motion of the grid. This new dynamic aspect can be used to resolve better the areas with large solution gradients or any other special features. No interpolation procedure is employed; thus, unnecessary solution smearing is avoided, and therefore, our method enjoys excellent conservation properties. The resulting grid is completely redistributed according to the choice of the so-called monitor function. Several more or less universal choices of the monitor function are provided. Finally, the performance of the proposed algorithm is illustrated on several examples stemming from the simple linear advection to the simulation of complex shallow water waves. The exact well-balanced property is proven. We believe that the techniques described in our paper can be beneficially used to model tsunami wave propagation and run-up.
Numerical approximation to Benjamin type equations. Generation and stability of solitary waves
Authors: Dougalis VA , Duran A , Mitsotakis Dimitrios
Published: June 2020

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. This paper is concerned with the study, by computational means, of the generation and stability of solitary-wave solutions of generalized versions of the Benjamin equation. The numerical generation of the solitary-wave profiles is accurately performed with a modified Petviashvili method which includes extrapolation to accelerate the convergence. In order to study the dynamics of the solitary waves the equations are discretized in space with a Fourier pseudospectral collocation method and a fourth-order, diagonally implicit Runge–Kutta method of composition type as time-stepping integrator. The stability of the waves is numerically studied by performing experiments with small and large perturbations of the solitary pulses as well as interactions of solitary waves.
Hamiltonian regularisation of shallow water equations with uneven bottom
Authors: Clamond D , Dutykh D , Mitsotakis Dimitrios
Published: June 2020

© 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. The regularisation of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws has been a problem of great importance for achieving uniqueness of weak solutions and also for accurate numerical simulations. In a recent work, the first two authors proposed a so-called Hamiltonian regularisation for nonlinear shallow water and isentropic Euler equations. The characteristic property of this method is that the regularisation of solutions is achieved without adding any artificial dissipation or dispersion. The regularised system possesses a Hamiltonian structure and, thus, formally preserves the corresponding energy functional. In the present article we generalise this approach to shallow water waves over general, possibly time-dependent, bottoms. The proposed system is solved numerically with continuous Galerkin method and its solutions are compared with the analogous solutions of the classical shallow water and dispersive Serre-Green-Naghdi equations. The numerical results confirm the absence of dispersive and dissipative effects in presence of bathymetry variations.

the education (both general and professional) has increased tremendously. Global changes in the technological, economic and social development of world civilization have turned education into a strategic factor in the progress of society. The growth of the scientific, technical, socio-cultural and spiritual potential of the society is directly related to the level and condition of the education system, the raising of the educational and professional level of the population. The influence of a post-industrial society formation on education should also be noted. The main question is: what kind of social order will replace the industrial system, and the answer to it becomes even more urgent. In the post-industrial society has the background of machine technology, information technology, based on the increased intellectual potential, is becoming increasingly important. This phenomenon must be accompanied by an appropriate modernization of the educational system. If education can not provide support for career changes, then education as an independent category of business can leave the market.

Resources and capabilities in emerging countries: Which causality?
Authors: Dr. Abdelhamid Nechad
Published: June 2020

The article deals with analysis of the observations and results that point to the contrast between useful-based and resource-based approaches and the possibilities-based approach, founded by Amartya Sina (Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998). Thus, a possibilities-based approach seeks to remedy the situation by focusing on the ability to achieve specific goals rather than on the means. The nature of real existence has always been of interest to social thinkers for centuries. If the current criteria of economic progress, reflected in a number of ‘turnkey’ statistics, are orientated on the growth of inanimate "comfort objects" (such as GNP and GDP in the basis of countless economic development studies), this focus can only be justified by the impact of these objects on human lives (that they directly or indirectly affect). The interest in replacing them with direct indicators of the quality of life, well-being and freedom that people enjoy is becoming more and more apparent. The article is presented in two parts. In the first part, we will try to highlight the imperfections of traditional currency indicators, as well as the difficulties of measuring various aspects of poverty, especially in developing countries such as Morocco. We argue that poverty is not simply an idea of the inadequacy of an individual's economic means, but rather a fundamental shortcoming that entails deprivations. The second part of the paper focuses on the reorientation of ability to explain the extent to which a possibilities-based approach could be the basis for assessing the level of financial difficulties rather than resource-focused income and wealth.

The researchers chose spinach leaves as the research object for obtaining a natural dye based on chlorophyll because the vegetable is a food raw material rich in this pigment, and biologically active substances source with variety of its functional properties. To solve the problem of more complete chlorophyll extraction from crushed spinach leaves, they are to subject to a preliminary short-term soaking in a water/organic reagent emulsion under ultrasonic influence. Given that the water-based spinach suspension is thermolabile, a man must observe temperature restrictions, since when a certain critical temperature value is exceeded, the chlorophyll decomposition probability with its consumer properties loss is high. As it is practically impossible to determine the temperature inside a fine particle suspended in an aqueous emulsion experimentally, the authors considered to model internal and external heat transfer by solving the differential equation of heat energy transfer under appropriate boundary conditions using the numerical method of finite differences. The research determined structural-mechanical and thermophysical characteristics of crushed spinach leaves experimentally using the complex calculation method of thermophysical parameters based on the thermal inertia properties of a thermocouple. A man verified the solution adequacy by empirically determined suspension temperature after completion of the technological procedure. According to the developed algorithm, the authors compiled a program for the temperature fields evolution in the object of study considering the incident ultrasonic flow and an internal heat source with the new surface formation when grinding spinach particles in order to comply with thermal restrictions and maximize the quality parameters preservation. The article considers the rational duration of the ultrasonic grinding process without exceeding the recommended threshold temperatures.

Lobster air tawar spesies Cherax quadricarinatus berasal dari perairan Australia dan Papua Nugini. Pengukuran morfometrik merupakan salah satu teknik dalam membedakan bentuk tubuh dari suatu populasi. Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menganalisis kekerabatan populasi pada lobster air tawar dari perairan Jawa Barat berdasarkan pendekatan truss morphometric. Beberapa karakter morfometrik dilakukan pengukuran dengan jumlah total sampel sebanyak 133 individu yang meliputi 20 individu dari Waduk Darma, 38 individu dari Situ Kemang, dan 75 individu dari Situ Kemuning. Hasil analisis kluster didapatkan bahwa populasi Cherax quadricarinatus yang berasal dari Situ Kemuning memiliki kekerabatan lebih dekat dengan Situ Kemang dibandingkan dengan Waduk Darma. Adanya perbedaan karakter morfometrik diduga terjadi karena perbedaan kondisi lingkungan pada ketiga populasi. Analisis diskriminan menunjukkan bahwa C. quadricarinatus yang beraal dari Waduk Darma, Situ Kemang, dan Situ Kemuning masing-masing terklasifikasi dengan tepat yaitu sebesar 100%, 63,2%, dan 76%. Sementara itu, terdapat 4 karakter utama yang dapat membedakan populasi dari semua lokasi (C4, B5, D6, dan A6).

Hot pepper production in most areas of Ethiopia especially in Tigray region is constrained by shortage of varieties, the prevalence of fungal and bacterial as well as viral diseases. Sixty-four hot pepper genotypes were evaluated to obtain the extent of genetic variability, association among characters. The experiment was laid out using 8x8 simple lattice design at Axum Agricultural Research center in 2017/18. Data were collected for 19 agronomic characters and analysis of variance revealed significant differences (p<0.01) among the genotypes for all characters. Fruit yield ranged from 0.8 to 4.5 t ha-1 with a mean of 2.7 t ha-1. The genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) ranged from 3.57and 3.84 for days to maturity to 42.4 and 42.9% for average single fruit weight. All the traits had moderate to very high broad sense heritability while genetic advance as percent of mean (GAM) ranged from 8.34 for days to maturity to 85% for average single fruit weigh. High heritability coupled with high GAM was obtained for average single fruit weight, fruit length, dry fruit yield per plant, fruit diameter and thousand seed weight reflecting the presence of additive gene action for the expression of these traits and improvement of these characters could be done through selection. Fruit yield per hectare had positive and highly significant phenotypic and genotypic correlations with dry fruit yield per plant, average single fruit weight, fruit pericarp thickness, thousand seed weight, fruit diameter and fruit length, but it had negative and highly significant genotypic and phenotypic correlations with days to maturity. Estimates of genotypic and phenotypic direct and indirect effects of various characters on fruit yield showed that dry fruit yield per plant, fruit pericarp thickness had the highest positive direct contribution to fruit yield indicating that selection based on these characters will improve fruit yield. In conclusion, the research results showed the presence of significant variations among genotypes for agro-morphology traits. Therefore, it is recommended further evaluation of genotypes or hybrids that exhibited highest yield, quality and disease resistance in subsequent breeding programs to improve the productivity of the crop.

Дилатаційна кардіоміопатія (ДКМП) визначається наявністю дилатації лівого шлуночка або обох шлуночків та систолічною дисфункцією за відсутності патологічних умов навантаження або ішемічної хвороби серця, достатніх, щоб пояснити ці зміни. Це гетерогенна група захворювань, що часто має генетичне підґрунтя. Серцево-судинна візуалізація є надзвичайно важливою для встановлення діагнозу, оцінювання прогнозу та лікування. Мультимодальний підхід до візуалізації забезпечує найповнішу оцінку всіх аспектів, пов’язаних із цим захворюванням. Цей документ має на меті забезпечити детальні рекомендації з використання мультимодальної візуалізації відповідно до клінічних вимог з урахуванням сучасних світових доказових даних і рекомендацій та з адаптацією до існуючих практик в Україні. Вибір того чи іншого засобу візуалізації має базуватися на конкретних клінічних умовах та індивідуальному контексті. Методи візуалізації розглядаються з точки зору «клінічно релевантних» та засобів, що «можуть використовуватися». До сьогодні лишаються певні пробіли в доказовій базі щодо впливу мультимодальної візуалізації на ведення та лікування пацієнтів з ДКМП, що свідчить про важливість подальших досліджень у цьому напрямку.
