Numerical and experimental investigation of a new cable-stayed string steel bridge/Numerische und experimentelle Untersuchung einer neuen Schrägseilen-Saiten Stahlbrücke
Authors: Dabrila Povilas , Juozapaitis Algirdas
Published: December 2024

Cable-stayed bridges, celebrated for their architectural elegance and efficient design, are notable landmarks worldwide. However, they face structural challenges, such as sensitivity to asymmetric loads and the need for significant components. This paper explores a novel approach that uses intersecting cable stays and replaces traditional stiffening girders with strings. This bridge model, with intermediate pylons connected by a pre-tensioned steel string, intersecting cables, and rigid supports, shows promise in improving load distribution and reducing material use. These potential benefits for managing asymmetrical loads. An experimental study on this new cable-stayed string bridge model assesses its response to symmetric and asymmetric loads, focusing on stress levels and deformations.

Authors: Lauble Svenja , Haghsheno Shervin
Published: December 2024

Die reibungslose und zeitgerechte Durchführung von Bauprojekten stellt für zahlreiche Projektbeteiligte ein gemeinsames Ziel dar. Trotz umfangreicher Forschungsarbeiten zur Analyse der Ursachen von Abweichungen sind Planungsfehlschlüsse weiterhin ein weit verbreitetes Thema in Forschung und Praxis. Daher wird in diesem Beitrag der Einfluss strategischer Ansätze zur Reduktion von Planungsfehlschlüssen in der Rahmenterminplanung bei Bauprojekten untersucht. Zu diesem Zweck wurde eine explorative Studie mit 131 Teilnehmern unter Experten im Bauprojektmanagement aus Deutschland durchgeführt, um statistisch signifikante Ansätze zu identifizieren. Mittels einer explorativen Faktorenanalyse (EFA) wurde ein Vier-Faktoren-Framework entwickelt und dessen Korrelation mit der Planungsqualität geprüft. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass eine verbesserte Informationsstruktur, insbesondere durch strukturierte Datenbanken, zu weniger Abweichungen führt. Dies könnte zukünftige Techniken wie Vorhersagemodelle unterstützen.

Extracapsular Prostate Brachytherapy Using Iodine-125 for Intermediate and Selected High-Risk Prostate Cancer: Technical Notes
Authors: Goy Barry W.
Published: December 2024

Introduction:

Our aim is to describe extracapsular prostate brachytherapy (ECPB) techniques using low-dose-rate (LDR) for patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer (IRPC) and selected high-risk prostate cancer (HRPC).

Materials and Methods:

Using stranded iodine-125 seeds, dose can be extended to the capsule and seminal vesicles (SVs). Intraoperative use of fluoroscopy with a cystogram can increase the extracapsular dose at the base and proximal SV compared with using ultrasound alone, with a seed source at the tip of each needle to push the dose cephalad. Visualization of the prostate base can be improved with a urinary catheter, with additional seeds placed posterior to the catheter balloon, along with additional stranded sources placed into the SV. For apical disease, a needle tip can be placed at the apex of the prostate under ultrasound guidance, and a fluoroscopic image can be referenced during the case, to ensure seed placement below the prostate apex. A peripheral loading technique is applied so that there is at least 3 mm coverage beyond the prostate radially, while additional seeds are inserted into areas of gross disease.

Results:

Our prior published experience of IRPC and selected HRPC showed excellent freedom from biochemical failure with 10-year follow-up. Our ECPB approach requires the use of more seeds (P < .0001), compared with a standard prostate brachytherapy approach, while requiring the use of fluoroscopy in addition to ultrasound.

Conclusion:

LDR prostate brachytherapy using iodine-125 alone with extracapsular techniques is a reasonable treatment option for IRPC and selected HRPC, but unfortunately is becoming a lost art.

Published: December 2024

Abstract Objective To determine the degree of agreement, sensitivity and specificity of the priority of care determined by inter-rater nurses, based on the use of the protocol for care and risk classification in obstetrics, in an obstetric emergency unit. Method Cross-sectional study with a methodological approach, carried out in a maternity school in Belo Horizonte-MG-Brazil, from September to November 2020. It was carried out in two stages: 1) Documental with an evaluation of the records of nurse classifiers in the medical records of pregnant women, parturients or puerperal women; 2) Interviews with trained and not trained nurses in risk classification. Sensitivity and specificity were analyzed and the Kappa coefficient (k) was used to assess agreement. Results The degree of inter-rater agreement (trained and not trained nurses) was found to be moderate to strong (k= 0.47 and 0.77). There was a tendency to underestimate the red (sensitivity of 85%; specificity of 99%) and yellow priorities (sensitivity of 54%; specificity of 85%), as well as overestimate the green (sensitivity of 62%; specificity of 84%) and blue priorities (sensitivity of 89%, specificity of 98%), although there were no significant differences. Despite satisfactory agreement and specificity, sensitivity was low, due to the rates of underestimation and overestimation in risk classification. Conclusion The protocol is reliable for determining priority of care in obstetrics, but its sensitivity was low when applied to determining priority of care by trained and not trained nurses.

Published: December 2024

A integração de sistemas de produção vegetal e animal possibilitou uma utilização mais eficiente dos recursos e promoveu o aumento da sustentabilidade agrícola. O consórcio de culturas e pastagens com a pecuária melhorou a qualidade do solo, enriquecendo-o com nutrientes e reduzindo a necessidade de fertilizantes sintéticos. O cultivo de leguminosas junto a gramíneas, por exemplo, enriqueceu o solo com nitrogênio e aumentou a produtividade das pastagens, enquanto a rotação de culturas diminuiu o risco de pragas e doenças. Estudos indicaram que essa prática foi especialmente eficaz em condições tropicais, onde a biodiversidade pôde ser favorecida. A adaptação desses sistemas às características regionais e a capacitação de produtores foram essenciais para garantir a viabilidade econômica e o sucesso das práticas sustentáveis.

In the Reyhanlı district, the 6.762 individuals collected in 2022 showed a relatively similar distribution across the vegetative and generative stages of cotton (56% and 44%, respectively). In 2023, the number of individuals collected decreased by 36% (4.382), with the population predominantly concentrating in the vegetative stage (70.2%) compared to the previous year, while the peak period (vegetative) remained the same. In the Altınözü district, 13,470 individuals collected in 2022 showed more presence in the vegetative period (83%) and increased significantly to 25,490 in 2023 (83.2%), 63.8% of the population was concentrated in the vegetative period and the peak period of the population remained the same in both years (vegetative). These findings are important for the detection of A. decedens and E. decipiens presence and the implementation of appropriate pest management programs in cotton production areas.
Otimismo e aporia

artigo propõe-se a traçar relações entre os projetos do Cenotáfio de Newton (1784), de Étienne-Louis Boullée, e do Cannaregio Town Square (1978), de Peter Eisenman, através do desenho como o lugar da realização destas arquiteturas. Para tanto, partimos dos confrontos e divergências em vez das similitudes e convergências. Além do desenho como interface desta dimensão, nos valemos também do tratamento de ambos os projetos como arquiteturas funerárias, por interpretarmos este trabalho de Eisenman como um cenotáfio em si, uma das poucas aproximações que fazemos entre os dois projetos. Tratamos, portanto, primeiramente de uma apresentação dos arquitetos, seguida das análises das referidas obras para, então, traçarmos nossas considerações acerca das características que os aproximam e, sobretudo, os afastam. Buscamos tensionar o suposto fio historiográfico da arquitetura que liga os diversos pontos dispersos por forças quase antagônicas, mas que possuem no desenho esta rede pela qual os projetos tornam-se um lugar do tempo suspenso entre o passado, o presente e o futuro; o locus solus que se configura em torno de sua própria realidade e permite a realização destas arquiteturas.

Streamflow analysis is indeed a need for Malaysia which always threaten by extreme streamflow events including flooding. However, the determination of the most suitable probability distribution for streamflow analysis has been the major concern and received considerable critical attention recently. The purpose of this study is to analyse the performances of several distributions in fitting the streamflow data collected form 11 streamflow stations in Peninsular Malaysia. and select the best performed distribution eventually. Normal, Generalized Extreme Value (GEV), three-parameter Gamma (G3), two-parameter Gamma (G2), three-parameter Weibull (W3), two-parameter Weibull (W2), three-parameter Log-Normal (LN3) and two-parameter Log-Normal (LN2) were used in this study to fit the maximum, minimum, and mean streamflow with monthly and seasonal time scales by using Easyfit software. The performances of distributions were evaluated through constructing Probability-Probability (P-P) Plot, Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) and conducting goodness-of-fit tests including Chi-square () Test, Anderson-Darling (AD) Test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) Test. All the results were tabulated for comparison and the most suitable probability distribution was selected. Overall, the results indicated that the GEV distribution was the best fit distribution for most of the stations and most of the data series or time scales, while the LN3 distribution appeared to be the second-best distribution. These findings add to a growing body of literature on the selection of probability distribution especially for the streamflow analysis in Peninsular Malaysia. Besides, these findings provide significant information and practical knowledge in supporting the future development of streamflow-related plans or management including the flood and drought mitigation plans.

The present work involves the study of ferrofluid flow over a rotating disk analysed through Shliomis model in the presence of alternating magnetic field applied in the radial direction. Shliomos model is the appropriate model to analyse ferrofluid flows as it provides prominence to the particle’s movement in the fluid. Here the flow alters due to the viscosity dependent on applied magnetic field in the presence of Lorentz force. The governing equations leading to nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation and solved numerically using the shooting method with the error tolerance of 10-6. The results obtained are represented in the form of graphs and the effects of parameters are analysed on the velocity profiles and pressure. The magnetic parameter declines whereas the magnetic field dependent viscosity enhances the velocity of the flow by reducing the pressure, which finds its application in many hardware devices. Also, the comparative study provides a quantitative agreement for the limiting case of the present work.

Menopause is a difficult period in a woman’s life when her body needs support. In cases where hormonal therapy is contraindicated, which is not uncommon, it is necessary to resort to prescribing herbal preparations, which are quite effective and at the same time have no contraindications. One of these drugs is Menomedin®-M, which can be prescribed by both obstetrician-gynecologists and general practitioners. The composition, mechanism of action, therapeutic effects and results of clinical studies of plant components of Menomedin®-M ensure the effectiveness of prescribing this phytocomplex for women with climacteric syndrome

The massive shift of communication culture from direct to virtual channels due to the COVID-19 pandemic affected virtual politeness performance. The limitation of physical expression in digital platforms encourages emojis to replace gestures, mimics, and other expressions. This study aims to describe the types of speech acts and the function of the emojis along with the performance of politeness strategies in the WhatsApp group of Javanese netizens. Understanding politeness performance through the use of speech acts and emojis in virtual communication provides insights into how universal emojis are specifically used in a particular culture and shows the creativity of emoji use in phatic communication. The virtual textual data were taken from five WhatsApp group’s with 174 Javanese members by observation method. The emoji that occurred in the conversational texts were classified based on the types of speech acts and their functions. The analysis was conducted within the cyberpragmatics framework. The findings showed that emojis were used in assertive speech acts, directive speech acts, expressive speech acts, and phatic speech acts. The functions were to emphasize meaning, clarify meaning, direct certain actions, express feelings, and establish social rapport. The research contributes to the development of cyberpragmatics as the current approach in pragmatics study. Moreover, the findings depicted the current phenomenon of social media communication on a cultural basis.
