„We were celebrating the October and the May Day”: names of the holidays in the Soviet period in the Arkhangelsk dialects
Authors: Panina Zhanna
Published: January 2020

The article, written on the basis of material in the Arkhangelsk dialects, is devoted to the “new” holidays that appeared (the October, the Victory Day, the May Day) or acquired significance (the New Year) in the Russian North in the Soviet period. Their dialect names are described, with special attention paid to the manner in which dialects adapted official names (for example, the Day of the Great October Socialist Revolution became October). In addition, the ceremonial content of the holidays of the Soviet era (the preparation and use of special festive foods and drinks, the preparation of the house for the holiday, including its cleaning and decoration, the tradition of gost’ba, or visiting relatives in the holidays) are analysed. Further, the study considers the beginnings of omens and regulations, mainly related to the agrarian labour cycle (start and end of field work) and changes in nature (ice drift and river-freezing, or rekostav). These began to take shape around the most important “new” holidays — Oktyábr’skaya (October) and Pervomai (May Day). Also discussed is the interaction of the Soviet holidays with holidays on the church calendar that were near in time (May Day — Passover, New Year — Christmas) and agrarian-labour holidays marking the completion of seasonal field work (Oktyábr’skaya — sowing (obsevnaia).
The meaning of Independence Day for the new Balkan states
Authors: Rudneva Irina
Published: January 2020

The article discusses the question of how Independence Day is celebrated in the new Balkan states, what semantic content these countries invest in it and how events of the past are reflected in the process of creating modern state and national traditions. The new states in the Balkans are rebuilding both internal relations within the country and the system of external relations. The celebration of Independence Day becomes a link between the promises of political leaders and the expectations and reactions of the citizens of a particular state to the annual evaluation of their independent existence. At the regional and international level, this celebration is a kind of demonstration of the validity of the chosen path of development. However, there are regions in the Balkans whose independence is controversial from the viewpoint of international law. Nevertheless, this does not prevent them from staging magnificent celebrations and receiving salutations from all over the world. This holiday, which should seemingly play a consolidating role, can in fact cause serious disagreements that call into question the country’s independence. Thus, even through legal proceedings, it is not possible to work out a clear criterion for celebrating this day.
28 June in the Serbian calendar of 1985-1991
Authors: Koloskov Evgenii
Published: January 2020

The article is devoted to the formation of the contemporary Vidovdan tradition in the Socialist Republic of Serbia in 1985-1991. Beings the key date in modern Serbian national history, 28 June was used to provide commemorative practices by various Serbian forces during the decomposition of centralised power in Yugoslavia in that period. The process of codifying of a new national mythology precipitated by the disintegration processes in the SFRY after the death of Tito, is examined on the background of the political discourse in Serbia. The research uses sources such as the public speeches and writings of leading political figures (above all Slobodan Milosevic), which are openly available, for example the Memorandum of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and which were published in the three most popular newspapers in the Socialist Republic of Serbia: Борба (Struggle), Политика (Politics) and Вечерње новости (Evening News) and the two main newspapers of the Autonomous Province of Kosovo: Rilindja (Revival) and Jeдинство (Unity). The research concludes that it is obvious that the establishing of a tradition of celebrating the anniversary of the Kosovo Battle as an annual public holiday is directly related to the interests of the political forces in SR
Serbia.
The Day of Annexion of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the periodicals of Austria Hungary
Authors: Pakhomova Lidia
Published: January 2020

The article explores the ways in which the day of annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina was commemorated in the press of the Habsburg Monarchy. The choice of German-language newspapers from various parts of Austro-Hungary was determined by the fact that the German language can be considered one of the key unifying factors within the empire. German-language newspapers and other periodicals were published all over Cisleithania, in the Hungarian part, for instance in Zagreb and Budapest, and in Bosnia itself. The analysis of publications from 1908–1918 shows that while commemoration of the event was relatively widespread during the first two years of the period, after 1911 the annexation of the formerly occupied provinces was largely forgotten. The author suggests the possible reasons why a commemorative event never became a tradition, namely that the annexation itself was not particularly notable for the Austro-Hungarian society since Bosnia and Herzegovina had already been controlled by AustroHungary for nearly 30 years and were de-facto a part of the empire. Other possible reasons include the annexation crisis and the military threat of 1908–1909, the international conflicts of 1911–1913 and also the proximity of the annexation date to a state holiday, that is Francis Joseph’s Name Day, 4 October.

Published: January 2020

This paper presents a lighting control system based on natural light monitoring and on occupancy control, characterized by installation easiness, even for existing plants, and cheapness.The system is based on a smart control unit and lighting control devices that can be directly mounted on the lamps in series connection. The installation is noninvasive and does not require any changes in the wiring system, since the communication between each lamp and the control system is realized by means of a 2.4 GHz wireless protocol. The system functionality is ensured with any lamps, also with non-dimmable ones. Tests and functionality verifications on the system were performed in laboratory, proving the applicability to real cases and performances that are comparable to the ones achievable with dimmable LED lamps, but with a significant cost saving.Hypothesizing the application of the proposed system and of different control technologies and strategies to a real academic classroom case study, different lighting scenarios have been simulated. Obtained results allow quantifying the effects in terms of energy consumption and CO2 emissions relative to such scenarios, achieving up to 69.6% of energy saving and 30.5% of CO2 emissions avoided. From an economic point of view, the comparison between the proposed control system and commercial systems shows a shorter PayBack Period, from 9 to 5 years.

Whose News? Class-Biased Economic Reporting in the United States
Authors: Jacobs Alan , Matthews Scott , Hicks Timothy , Merkley Eric
Published: January 2020

There is substantial evidence that voters’ choices are shaped by assessments of the state of the economy and that these assessments, in turn, are influenced by the news. But how does the economic news track the welfare of different income groups in an era of rising inequality? Whose economy does the news cover? Drawing on a large new dataset of U.S. news content, we demonstrate that the tone of the economic news strongly and disproportionately tracks the fortunes of the richest households, with little sensitivity to income changes among the non-rich. Further, we present evidence that this “class bias” emerges not from pro-rich journalistic preferences but, rather, from the interaction of the media’s focus on economic aggregates with structural features of the relationship between economic growth and distribution. The findings yield a novel explanation of distributionally perverse electoral patterns and demonstrate how the structure of the economy conditions economic accountability.

Published: January 2020

For socio-economic assessment on wheat production, research was conducted from March to June, 2019 in two major wheat growing districts of Nepal, Kailai and sunsari. The primary information was collected by face to face interview using the pre-tested semi-structured interview schedule, two Key Informant Surveys were also done.In addition, the secondary information were collected from the review of related literatures. The survey areas were selected by consultating with Agriculture Knowledge Centre and agricultural officials of the local government; sample were selected by using simple random sampling. All total, 194 samples were selected for this study; the outliers and incomplete responses were omitted. The descriptive statistics revealed that Nepal 297 (66.16 %) has the highest area coverage in Sunsari while Gautam (36.50%) has the highest coverage in Kailali. Multiple regression model revealed that wheat cultivated area (p= 0.000), adoption of NARC released varieties (p= 0.000), gender of the household head (p= 0.017), age of the household head (p= 0.040), membership of organization (p= 0.094) and number of family members between age group 15 to 59 years (p= 0.085) have significant effect on wheat production. Furthermore, the unpaired t-test showed that the mean productivity of wheat in Kailali (2.99 Mt./ha) is significantly higher than that of Sunsari (2.81t./ha) at 5% level of significance. To increase the wheat productivity, the concerned government agricultural institutions should: assure access to NARC released improved varieties, make policy to consolidate the fragmented land, encourage the economically active population and the household heads towards wheat production by providing the efficient technical and financial support.

Predatory hornets are considered as one of the major constraints to beekeeping industry. Therefore, its incidence and predation rate was studied throughout the year at two locations- rural and forest areas of mid-hill in Laliptur district during 2016/017 to 2017/018. Observation was made on the number of hornet and honey bee captured by hornet in three different times of the day for three continuous minutes every fortnightly on five honeybee colonies. During the study period, major hornet species captured around the honeybee apiary at both locations were, Vespa velutina Lepeletier, Vespa basalis Smith, Vespa tropica (Linnaeus) and Vespa mandarina Smith. The hornet incidence varied significantly between the years and locations along with different observation dates. Their incidence and predation rates were low in early spring and summer that gradually increased with the highest peak in October and November in both locations. The maximum predation was on mid-November (62.07%) and early-November (53.49%) at rural and forest locations, respectively during 2016/017. In 2017/018, the highest predation was on early-November (70.27%) at rural area while it was in mid-November (58.62%) in the apiaries near the forest area. The population of hornet was considerably higher at forest areas and their incidence around the honeybee apiaries were negatively correlated with rainfall. Hence, assessment of the temporal and spatial population variations and predation rates along with weather parameters is helpful in to develop sustainable management plans of the hornet in apiary.

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of hybrid tomato lines on growth and yield performance at Regional Agriculture research Station (RARS), Parwanipur, Nepal during end of September, 2018 to April, 2019. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with seven hybrid tomato lines as treatments and three replications. The tested lines included Srijana and Dalila as check varieties and other lines, developed by crossing HRA and HRD lines which showed better performance under late blight conditions. HRA 20× HRD 1 showed significantly higher plant height (110.67 cm) which was statistically at par with genotype HRA 14× HRD 7. The highest number of fruits per plant (69) was recorded from Srijana whereas the lowest number of fruits per plant (37) was recorded from cv. HRA20 × HRD1. The fruit yield of the lines ranged from 50.54 t/ha to 32.2 t/ha with Srijana having the highest yield and HRA 20× HRD 1 as the lowest. Similar results were shown regarding the marketable fruit yield. However, the highest individual fruit weight (34.67g) was recorded in HRA 14× HRD 7 and the least fruit weight was recorded in Srijana (24.22 g). Results showed that the maximum TSS (5.53 0Brix) was recorded from Dalila which was similar as Srijana. Hence, the overall performance of Srijana was recorded superior regarding both quantitative and qualitative suggesting Srijana as the recommended variety in the given domain. Here authors concluded that Srijana is still a comparatively better hybrid variety in Nepal.

Published: January 2020

Maize is the second most important crop of Nepal. The yield of the crop is low due to lack of appropriate plant density for the varieties. The field experiment was carried out to study the effect of different row spacings on different maize varieties at Deupur, Lamahi municipality of the dang district in province No. 5, Nepal during the rainy season from June to September, 2018. Four levels of spacings (boardcasting and three row spacings of 45, 60 and 75 cm) and two maize varieties (Rampur Composite and Arun-2) were evaluated using randomized complete block design with three replications. The highest grain yield was found in Rampur Composite and Arun-2 while they were planted with row spacing of 60 cm with plant to plant spacing of 25 cm. The highest grain yield, cob length, cob circumference, number of rows per cob, thousand grain weight  were reported when maize was planted in the  row spacing 60×25cm. Among the maize varieties, Rampur Composite produced the highest grain yield, cob length, cob circumference, number of rows per cob as compared to Arun-2. This study suggested that maize production can be maximized by cultivating maize varieties with row spacing of 60 cm with plant to plant spacing of 25 cm.

Published: January 2020

To evaluate high yielding drought tolerant rice varieties in different altitudes, a field experiment was carried out at Duradanda, Lamjung, Nepal during rainy season of 2016 under rainfed condition. The experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized block design with two replications. The treatments comprised of six different rice varieties viz. Sukhadhan-1, Sukhadhan-2, Sukhadhan-3, Sukhadhan-4, Sukhadhan-5 and Sukhadhan-6 and four altitudes viz. 1000, 1200, 1400 and 1600 masl. The results revealed that rice variety Sukhadhan-2 produced the highest grain yield (2.93 t/ha) followed by Sukhadhan-5 (2.92 t/ha) and Sukhadhan-3 (2.82 t/ha). The highest grain yield of Sukhadhan-2 was due to higher number of effective tillers/m2 (228), higher number of grains/panicle (83), higher panicle length (21.79 cm) and low sterility percentage (27.91%) as compared to other varieties. Regarding to altitudes, the highest grain yield (3.34 t/ha) was obtained in lower altitude (1000 masl) followed by 1200 masl (2.79 t/ha), 1400 masl (2.68 t/ha and 1600 masl (1.85 t/ha). The lower yield in higher altitude was due to higher sterility percentage, less number of effective tillers per unit area and less number of effective grains per panicle. It seems that the performance of these varieties was good up to 1400 masl.

Published: January 2020

L’œdème pulmonaire d’immersion (OPI) est souvent décrit en plongée en scaphandre autonome mais peut aussi s’observer en nage de surface ou en apnée sousmarine. Cette pathologie, directement liée aux contraintes environnementales de l’immersion, est favorisée par un terrain cardiovasculaire. Elle peut également toucher des cœurs sains à travers un exercice physique associé à un effort ventilatoire important. L’OPI a pour origine une augmentation du gradient de pression transmurale au niveau des capillaires pulmonaires par une élévation de la pression capillaire (précharge et postcharge) et une diminution de la pression alvéolaire. Au travers d’un cas clinique, nous précisons les mécanismes physiopathologiques encore méconnus de ce déséquilibre pressionnel et nous décrivons les principes de prise en charge préhospitalière et hospitalière de l’OPI avec un rappel des diagnostics différentiels à évoquer devant une symptomatologie respiratoire au décours d’une plongée. Nous insistons sur une sensibilisation et un dépistage cardiologique d’un terrain à risque, en particulier d’une hypertension artérielle, chez tout plongeur de plus de 50 ans.

Published: January 2020

The possibility of using a non-magnetic fraction of a detonation charge with a diamond fraction from the disposal of ammunition to modify the restoration coatings of a natural product – clay and secondary raw materials — was studied. Four different coating variants were investigated. For this, a T-620 electrode was used with its additional modification by coating with bentonite clay, as well as with a non-magnetic fraction of the detonation charge and applying it in the form of a slip coating on the cutting surface of the cultivator. It is shown that the use of such additives allows to increase the resistance of the working tool of agricultural machines, reduces its tendency to damage due to the minimum penetration of the thin-walled product of the hoe blade and a decrease in the cross section of the transition layer and the level of stress. Each modifier makes changes to increase the microhardness to varying degrees. An increase in microhardness is observed on the surface of the coating and its gradual decrease to the transition layer. The surface coating with the additional introduction of bentonite clay in a liquid bath has the highest microhardness. Its microhardness varies from HV-50-1009.7 to HV-50-615.2. Similarly, the effect of the modifying additive of the detonation charge, the microhardness varies from HV-50-969.6 to HV-50-633.26. When clay or a mixture is introduced into the restoration coating, the wear resistance increases by 1.3 - 2 times with respect to the deposited surfacing only by the electrode and by 2 - 3 times to the initial material of the cultivator. It was found that the lowest coefficient is characteristic for dry friction, as well as for hydroabrasive, for samples with additional modification with clay or a detonation charge
Fuel of the keeping needs of the energy discharge during nitrogen on the tribological characteristics of the design steel 45
Authors: Stechyshyna N.M. , Stechyshyn M.S. , Martyniuk A.V.
Published: January 2020

The effect of power discharge category W in BATR on tribological characteristics of nitrous steel 45 is investigated in the work. The highest wear resistance of steel 45 corresponds to mode 7, which provides optimum physico-chemical characteristics of the nitrided layer.

The ratio of the intensities of the passage of the main BATR subprocesses determines the structure and phase composition of the nitrided layers. Depending on the current combination of parameters of the mode of formation of the nitrided layer, the intensity of the flow of the above subprocesses (nitride formation, sputtering and diffusion saturation of the surface with nitrogen), and therefore the intensity of the formation of certain phases may be different, and sometimes reverse. For example, as the energy of the incident stream W increases, the pre-formed nitride layer is sprayed, which stimulates the process of nitrogen diffusion into the metal base and the formation of e and g  - phases. When the flow energy is insufficient to atomize the nitride layer, it acts as a kind of barrier that impedes or completely stops the process of nitrogen diffusion.

It is established that the decrease in the specific discharge power leads to a decrease in the thickness of the nitride and diffusion zones and, as a consequence, the tribological characteristics deteriorate. It is revealed that at the maximum values of energy parameters, a nitrous containing layer is formed e , g і a - phase. The decrease in voltage and current density causes the particle to increase g - pfase (Fe4N) and according to the reduction of the share e  -  phase (Fe2N). At minimum values of energy parameters of formation of nitrides on the surface is absent and the nitrided layer consists only of a - phase.
SPATIALLY-LOCALIZED NONLINEAR MAGNETOELASTIC WAVES IN A MICROPOLAR ELECTRICAL CONDUCTING MEDIUM
Authors: Erofeev V.I. , Shekoyan A.V. , Belubekyan M.V.
Published: January 2020

A nonlinear model of an electrically conducting micropolar medium interacting with an external magnetic field is proposed. The deformable state of such a medium is described by two asymmetric tensors: tensor of deformations and bending-torsion tensor. In both tensors, linear and nonlinear terms are taken into account in rotation gradients and displacement gradients (geometric nonlinearity). The components of the bending-torsion tensor, which have identical indices, describe torsional deformations, and the rest - bending deformations. The stress state of the medium is described by two asymmetric tensors: stress tensor and moment stress tensor. It is assumed, as it is usual in magnetoelasticity, that the action of the electromagnetic field on the deformation field occurs through the Lorentz forces. From the system of Maxwell equations follow the equations for electrical and magnetic inductions, which, together with the electromagnetic equations of state, must be added to the equations of the dynamics of a micropolar medium.

Within the framework of the proposed model, a one-dimensional nonlinear shear-rotation magnetoelastic wave is considered. The nonlinear term is selected and taken into account in the equations of dynamics, making the most significant contribution to wave processes. It is shown that two factors will influence the wave propagation: dispersion and nonlinearity. Nonlinearity leads to the emergence of new harmonics in the wave, which contributes to the appearance of a sharp drop in the moving profile. The dispersion, on the contrary, smoothes the differences due to the difference in the phase velocities of the harmonic components of the waves. The combined effect of these factors can lead to the formation of stationary waves that propagate at a constant speed without changing the shape. Only those cases are physically feasible when there is no constant component in the deformation wave. Stationary waves can be both periodic and aperiodic. The latter are spatially localized waves - solitons. It is shown that the behavior of "subsonic" and “supersonic” solitons will be qualitatively different.
ACTIVE DAMPING OF TRANSVERSE VIBRATIONS OF CONSOLE BEAM BY PIEZOELECTRIC LAYER WITH DIFFERENT ELECTRODE SHAPES OF DAMAGED MEDIA
Authors: Petrakov E.V. , Lotfi Pour H. , Drobny E.V.
Published: January 2020

The damping efficiency is considered for a console beam described by a linear viscosity Bernoulli-Euler model. The article presents the methods of damping transverse vibrations implemented by a dynamic damper from a piezoelectric layer distributed symmetrically along the axis of symmetry of the beam. Piezoelectric layers with a triangular and rectangular shape of electrode plates are considered, which affects the nature of mechanical stresses upon application of electrical voltage. The electrode plates are thin layers made of nickel or silver several microns thick and located normal to the polarization axis, that is, along the length of the piezoceramic plate. The control of the piezoelectric layers is realized by changing the potential difference between the electrode plates, while the piezoelectric material uncoated by the electrode plate on both sides is useless to use as an active material. Mathematical models of the effect of piezoelectric elements on the cantilever beam are derived from the Hamilton principle. The Pareto-efficiency of quenching by piezoelectric plates with different electrode shapes is evaluated relative to two criteria: the level of control voltage and the maximum deflection of the beam. To compare the results with the best variant of vibration damping, in this formulation, the result of vibration damping for a beam with piezoelectric layer applied along the entire length is given. The damping efficiency was confirmed in an applied and particular example by means of vibrograms. The synthesis of Pareto-optimal controls is based on the Germeier convolution, and the search for optimal feedback is based on the application of the theory of linear matrix inequalities and effective algorithms for solving them.
Comparison between new design interlocking nail with plate fixation and intramedullary pin with external skeletal fixation in long bone fracture in the dogs
Authors: Damrongdej Piyabongkarn
Published: January 2020

New design interlocking nail and plate fixation was used in comminuted femur fracture in an old dog that the results showed primary bone healing and she had been quickly weight baring in fifteenth day after surgery, and could be walk in twenty day after operation. Another case was a young dog that showed transverse fracture of both humerus and one transverse fracture of femur that were repaired by intramedullary pin and external skeletal fixation. The results showed secondary bone healing of these three bone fractures and she could be walk after 2 months of operation. An old dog did not show any complication but a young dog showed pin migration in femur healing. This study revealed that the superior result in bone healing was found in rigid fixation by new design interlocking nail and plate fixation greater than intramedullary pin with external skeletal fixation.
Kirill Razumovsky and reform projects in Left-Bank Ukraine in the second half of the XVIII century
Authors: KRUTIKOV Anton
Published: January 2020

Reforms of the hetman Kirill Razumovsky gave Ukraine a chance to take the path of accelerated modernization in the spirit of Peter the Great's transformations. Or, the Little Russian elite’s priorities and ambitions did not allow to complete the reforms and were one of the prerequisites for the liquidation of hetmanate. The incompleteness of modernization developments led to the emergence of nostalgia for a “golden age” among the Little Russian gentry and intelligentsia, and contributed to the emergence of early forms of Ukrainian autonomism.
How Russia, after the withdrawal of Russian troops from Latvia, managed to keep the early warning radar station in Skrunda for 6 years. The Russian Ambassador’s Memoirs

Published: January 2020

After Latvia gained independence in 1991, the question arose of withdrawing Soviet troops and military installations from the territory of the Republic. It was not only difficult, but it seemed impossible to achieve acceptable withdrawal conditions for Russia, in the euphoria of "new thinking" and the furious campaign of Latvian national radicals. The author, who was the head of the Russian State delegation at the talks with Latvia on these issues, reveals the hidden story of the ensuing diplomatic battle within its domestic and international context, analyzes its course, circumstances, lessons and importance.

Background: This study aimed to translate and validate the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory (FCRI) questionnaire into Persian and to investigate its psychometric properties.

Methods: The FCRI was translated to Persian using a linguistic methodology according to WHO guidelines. A total of 450 breast cancer survivors who had the following inclusion criteria were included: time elapse of more than six months after the treatment prior to the study; absence ofobjective markers of recurrence, fluency in the Persian language, and signing the informed consent. Internal consistency was estimated with Cronbach's α coefficient and test-retest reliability with Interclass correlation.  Concurrent validity was estimated through Pearson’s correlation between the FCRI and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Principal component analysis (PCA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were employed to evaluate dimensionality.

Results: The Persian version was acceptable for patients. The content validity index (CVI) was 0.80.  The instrument had good test-retest reliability (ICC= 0.96) and internal consistency (Cronbach’s α=0.86).  PCA and CFA indicated that the factor structure of the Persian version was similar to the original questionnaire and had acceptable goodness of fit.  Correlations between the FCRI and HADS was remarkable (r= 0.252 – 0.639), indicating acceptable concurrent validity.

Conclusions: The Persian version of FCRI could be considered a good cross-cultural equivalent for the original English version. The questionnaire was a reliable and valid instrument in terms of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and dimensionality.
A Scoping Indicator Identifying Potential Impacts of All-Inclusive MaaS Taxis on Other Modes in Manchester
Authors: Philips Ian , Walmsley Andrew , Anable Jillian
Published: January 2020

We present a spatial scoping indicator of the potential impacts of an all-inclusive taxi service as part of a plausible but hypothetical Mobility as a Service (MaaS) package in Manchester UK. Our indicator identifies the number of people in each area who have some potential for mode shift from walking, cycling, public transport or car commuting to an all-inclusive taxi service within a MaaS package. We find the method quick and straightforward. In our case study, potential to shift from walk to an all-inclusive taxi service within a MaaS package is almost double the potential shift away from car, which represents a risk of increased car use.

Published: January 2020

A field experiment was carried out at Ramkrishna Ashram KVK Instructional Farm, Nimpith, South 24Parganas during the pre-kharif season, 2012 to evaluate the performance of 66 numbers of green gram (Vigna radiata L.) genotypes in low to medium saline soil in coastal saline belts of Sundarbans, West Bengal. Almost all the 66 cultivars selected for the experiments took 5-6 days for 75% germination of seedlings and 27-36 days to achieve 50% flowering. Final plant stand count was from 70-80%. The higher value of seed yield was observed in PUSA-2031 (1398 kg), 75.4% higher in comparison to the local check Chaiti moong (797 kg/ha) followed by KM-11-573 (1302 kg; 63.3% more than LC), SM-11-41 (1286 kg; 61.3% more than LC), KM-11-583 (1280 kg, 60.6% more than LC), KM-11-578 (1211 kg, 51.9% more than LC), respectively. The significantly higher values of other yield attributing traits were observed among the green gram genotypes. In case of root length, the above genotypes were found significantly lower (12.33-14.33 cm, 7.8-20.4%) than the Chaiti moong (LC) 15.5 cm. From the above experiment it may be concluded that in the similar situation as well as soil salinity condition the above green gram genotypes may prove to perform better than the local cultivar Chaiti moong for cultivation in the coastal saline regions of Sundarbans, West Bengal.
From Design Management to Strategic Design Management
Authors: ER Özlem , TOPALOĞLU Fulden
Published: January 2020

Conflicting with heightened awareness about design's strategic role for businesses, research is lacking about methods and tools to guide designers and organizations in building strategic design management capabilities, as well as about the development of these capabilities in organizational contexts. This paper aims to provide important perspectives concerning these issues in two major ways. First, it presents the development of a new Design Management Audit Framework (DMAF) that aspires to identify and accommodate new capabilities and responsibilities that are necessary to support the changing and broadening context and roles of design. Then, the paper discusses the triggers, enablers and challenges in moving from design management to strategic design management practices in organizational contexts, based on the results of 3 in-depth case studies, which have utilized the new Design Management Audit Framework to carry out a comprehensive design management audit process inside these organizations.
Co-creating product-service-system with and for the ageing society in different socio cultural contexts

This paper reports on an empirical study about how designers and design researchers applied a co-creation method to generate product-service-system (PSS) concepts in multi-stakeholder teams, to promote physical activities for elderly people in an EU project. This method is developed based on the Value Design method. The value design method consists of a workshop process and a set of generative research tools to support the value creation process. By analysing the workshop process, results from the end user value creating process, the stakeholder value creating process and the encounter process, this paper demonstrates how designers can use such a co-creation process together with the created generative research tools to enable the value creation for the purpose of adopting the PSS approach by the stakeholders and the end users. The results also showed that different social cultural contexts related to the field of interest determined the stakeholder network construction.
Enhanced Capabilities through Design-Based Approaches
Authors: JOORE Peter , VAN DER MAREL Floris
Published: January 2020

Design Thinking is often referred to as a valuable addition for educational models to promote a way of learning that encourages collaborations with people who work, think and act differently. Despite being used in multiple situations and described by numerous lists with characteristics, little is known about how it could affect people’s lives beyond the professional environment. The Capability Approach was used as an inspiration to explore with designers how it has influenced their lives through an interactive installation and in-depth interviews. Respondents reported better imagination, reasoning, thinking, using of skills and talents, freedom of expression, and ability to imagine another’s situation as a result of their designerly attitude. It is argued that integrating design thinking in educational models potentially transforms how people interact in society.
People as an essential tool for considering ethics in the product lifecycle
Authors: AFTAB Mersha , JAMES Alana
Published: January 2020

This paper explores the vital engagement of people at different stages of the product lifecycle. The incorporation of human values in the creation of empathy allows for ethics to be considered across the design and make process. A case study approach was adopted utilising data obtained from two large consumer goods companies. From this, a relationship was found to lie between the involvement of people as active participants and the creation of empathy. These empathetic values consequently facilitated the consideration of a responsible approach to be implemented. Conclusions show that during the design process people create added value with a participatory approach, whilst during production consumers become prosumers in consumer-led innovation to help drive forward an ethical agenda.
Externalising, sharing and comparing perceptions in engineering design
Authors: HIRD Abi
Published: January 2020

There is a need for organisations and the leaders within them to explore, recognise, build and exploit new capabilities. Some of this ‘new’ capability could be better utilisation of the resources already at their disposal. For example, highly skilled designers and engineers. This paper explores the notion of knowledge models in design with two driving motivations. Firstly, a new urgency in the light of the forth industrial revolution, from a digitisation perspective: can we integrate designer’s thoughts with AI. Secondly, a longer-standing concern, from the point of view of the inherent need to communicate and express and model clearly in achieve the objective of design. A conceptual analysis of the role of models in design is presented before a potential new approach is proposed.
Using collaborative reflection in service design research
Authors: MANDAL Soumava , KOUPRIE Merlijn
Published: January 2020

Recently, there has been increased attention to how service design can influence the behaviour of people and therefore has the potential to change communities and organizations. This transformative role of service design in changing people’s mind-sets is being explored by design practitioners and a shift can be seen from designers in the role of consultants to the role of facilitators. Instead of providing solutions to problems, designers have started to provide tools to guide organizations towards solutions that are co-created by stakeholders and customers. In this paper, we describe how applying reflective practices during service design research can initiate a mind-set change in an organization. We present a case study in which we explore how collaborative reflection can bring people together during service design research and create mutual understanding.
Digital Interactions and Brand Experience Design
Authors: RANCHHOD Ashok , WANICK Vanissa , GURAU Calin
Published: January 2020

This paper introduces an overview and positioning of the contemporary brand experience in the digital context. With technological advances in games, gamification and emerging technologies, such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), it is possible that brand experiences are getting more pervasive and seamless. In this paper, we review the current theories around multi-sensory brand experience and the role of new technologies in the whole consumer journey, including pre-purchase, purchase and post-purchase stages. After this analysis, we introduce a conceptual framework that promotes a continuous loop of consumer experience and engagement from different and new touch points, which could be augmented by games, gamification and emerging technologies. Based on the framework, we conclude this paper with propositions, examples and recommendations for future research in contemporary brand management, which could help brand managers and designers to deal with technological challenges posed by the contemporary society.
