O ATIVISMO DE BERTHA LUTZ PARA PRESERVAÇÃO DA NATUREZA: SOBRE OS PARQUES NACIONAIS, FISCALIZAÇÃO E PARECERES EM FAVOR DA CONSERVAÇÃO INTEGRAL NO ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO – BRASIL (1950-1954)
Authors: De Menezes Ribeiro Ana Beatriz , De Senna Valle Luci , Medeiros Maria Franco Trindade
Published: June 2021

Bertha Lutz, cientista brasileira e naturalista, descrita por si mesma. Trata-se da apresentação de uma documentação dos arquivos do Museu Nacional (SEMEAR), que foi extinto pelo incêndio do dia 02 de junho de 2018. Os originais datilografados de Bertha Lutz demostram sua visão da situação ambiental por diversas localidades fluminenses, particularmente sobre a situação da flora e vegetação de Mata Atlântica, no entorno dos parques nacionais até as fronteiras fluminenses, com São Paulo e Minas Gerais. O Relatório de 1954 foi enviado ao Ministério da Agricultura, após uma expedição científica de monitoramento e de fiscalização, por Bertha Lutz pessoalmente, entre 1953-1954. Acompanhada de um técnico do Museu Nacional, Sr. Venâncio Fernandes, contou com o apoio do pessoal das localidades e funcionários dos parques. As localidades foram escolhidas a partir de antigos caminhos de naturalistas e áreas conhecidas de interesse científico para coleta de batráquios, como o Itatiaia e a Serra dos Órgãos. Bertha Lutz recomendou ao Ministério da Agricultura: aumentar os territórios protegidos e a conservação integral das florestas nativas ainda existentes, fora das unidades, ampliando a criação de parques nacionais no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Minas Gerais.
PESQUISADORA, ETNOBIÓLOGA, LÍDER COMUNITÁRIA, GERAIZEIRA: REFLEXÕES SOBRE AS DIFICULDADES ENCONTRADAS POR DUAS MULHERES EM SUAS ATUAÇÕES EM CAMPO
Authors: Campos Juliana Loureiro Almeida , Ferreira Madalena Izabel Sousa
Published: June 2021

O trabalho de campo realizado durante as pesquisas etnobiológicas requer contato íntimo do(a) pesquisador(a) com o(a) participante da pesquisa, seja por meio de entrevistas ou pela aplicação de métodos participativos para a coleta dos dados. Nesse sentido, em um universo em que as ideias e olhares masculinos predominam, realizar pesquisas de campo nessa área se torna uma tarefa difícil para as mulheres. Da mesma forma, o preconceito e o machismo no meio rural tornam quase inviável a presença feminina à frente de cargos de liderança em associações e movimentos rurais. A proposta desse texto é exibir os relatos de duas mulheres, uma pesquisadora e uma líder de uma comunidade tradicional geraizeira, a respeito das dificuldades enfrentadas durante suas atuações em campo. Partindo de um texto ora narrado pela pesquisadora, ora pela líder comunitária, colocamos em pauta as dificuldades enfrentadas por mulheres em suas atuações em campo e discutimos a importância da união e da parceria feminina para ocuparmos lugares de fala, de luta e de destaque dentro do universo da pesquisa etnobiológica e da liderança comunitária rural. Essas dificuldades incluem assédios, falta de segurança, falta de confiança do participante em transmitir informações, preconceito por assumir cargos de liderança e invisibilidade na tomada de decisões, as quais são pouco exploradas pela academia e pelas lideranças do meio rural e precisam ser cada vez mais postas em evidência.
IYÁ MI OXORONGÁ: OLHARES SAGRADOS DO FEMININO NO CANDOMBLÉ
Authors: Barros Ana Angélica Monteiro de , Azevedo Vitor Amorim Moreira de
Published: June 2021

A figura feminina detém uma força misteriosa que provoca, até os dias de hoje, fascínio e medo, características que estão intrinsecamente associadas às Iyá Mi Oxorongá, que são divindades que chegaram ao Brasil por meio da diáspora espiritual africana. Neste trabalho, pretende-se estabelecer a relação do culto das Iyá Mi com o matriarcado e o poder feminino no candomblé, buscando compreender o papel social e sagrado das sacerdotisas nos espaços religiosos, além de ratificar o protagonismo feminino nessa religião afro-brasileira. A abordagem qualitativa foi adotada para se discutir os mitos cosmogônicos de criação do mundo e da humanidade através das divindades Odudua e Obatalá. O referencial teórico se baseou na literatura especializada de livros e artigos buscados nas bases Google Scholar e SciElo. Essa análise foi complementada com a interpretação do mito que consta no primeiro verso do itan 204 do livro a “A Mitologia dos Orixás” de Reginaldo Prandi, que apresenta o arquétipo feminino das Iyá Mi Oxorongá, as Feiticeiras Ancestrais associadas à Odudua, a grande Mãe da Criação, e ao poder matriarcal das sacerdotisas do candomblé. Uma das versões do mito cosmogônico apresenta Odudua como a responsável por gestar o mundo usando a Igbá-Odu, a cabaça da existência, e a Obatalá de fazer surgir a humanidade. O culto a essas divindades é praticado no candomblé, onde Odudua está relacionada à ancestralidade feminina e a sua capacidade em gerenciar a vida e a morte. A análise desse mito permitiu mostrar essa simbologia vivenciada pelas Iyalorixás, mulheres que se destacam por assumir sua fé para manter unidos os elos das comunidades religiosas, que são espaços de resistência diante de uma sociedade culturalmente ocidentalizada e patriarcal. O mito das Iyá Mi está intimamente conectado a essa questão, ressaltando o olhar sagrado do poder feminino relacionado à condição de ser mulher.
“CANTA HOMEM, CANTA MULHER E A SEREIA CANTA NO MAR” : UMA EXPERIÊNCIA DE TRABALHO DE CAMPO COMPARTILHADA
Authors: Almeida Simone Lopes de
Published: June 2021

Atravessei por diversas vezes o Semiárido alagoano, do Agreste ao Alto Sertão, onde está o grupo indígena Kalankó. Essa jornada às terras quentes durante o dia e frescas ao anoitecer inicia nas caminhadas junto ao meu companheiro antropólogo, em suas inúmeras idas a campo. Como pesquisador de grupos indígenas no Semiárido, esse trabalho exige dele uma imersão na vida daquela gente. Coloquei-me a caminhar junto dele, adquiri o hábito do caderno de campo, construí pontes e me perguntei até onde era a historiadora e/ou a esposa do etnólogo.  Encontrei-me em trânsito, sentindo vigor por uma pesquisa que não era minha, mas ali estava por motivos, a princípio, afetivos. Dos textos etnográficos com que já tive contato sempre me marcou Um jogo absorvente: notas sobre a briga de galos balinesa, de Clifford Geertz, em A interpretação das culturas (2008), produzido pelo autor quando esteve naquele país com sua esposa. É interessante perceber que a história está repleta de relatos de viajantes, de Bali na Indonésia ao Semiárido do Brasil, de homens acompanhados por “suas” mulheres. Este relato é sobre quando observei, opinei e construí minha própria experiência como pesquisadora, durante a busca de meu marido em entender sobre a cultura dos Kalankó. Aqui apresento meus escritos e memórias de campo, baseados no método etnográfico e na observação participante.

Solar radiation data is necessary for the design of solar heating systems and used to estimate the thermal performance of solar heating plants. Compared to global irradiance, the direct beam component shows much more variability in space and time. The global radiation split into beam and diffuse radiation on collector plane is important for the evaluation of the performance of different collector types and collector field designs.
Solar District Heating Perspective in Austria
Authors: Aghaie Hamid
Published: June 2021

Austrian district heating (DH) has experienced a fast increasing trend for the last 30 years (with the exception of the period 2010-2014), resulting in a triplication of delivered heat; in the year 2018, with about 2400 networks and 20 TWh supply, DH covered 6.4% of the final energy consumption (1122.5 PJ). Worth to underline is also that this growth of Austrian district heating has been about twice faster than the one of the energy demand in the same period. Currently, district heating provides about 26% of the Austrian households with the energy requested for space heating and domestic hot water preparation.
„Reakcja pogańska” jako forma realizacji polityki zewnętrznej połabskich organizmów politycznych
Authors: Pychowski Michał Witold
Published: June 2021

Istnieją dowody, że pogańskie ośrodki polityczne na zachodniej Słowiańszczyźnie wykorzystywały tzw. reakcje pogańskie w swojej polityce zewnętrznej. Najlepszymi przykładami tego typu zajść jest trzecie powstanie Słowian połabskich, obalenie książąt Obodrytów (Mścisława w 1018 i Gotszalka w 1066 r.), interwencja Ranów w Szczecinie w trakcie drugiej wyprawy biskupa Ottona z Bambergu, jedenastowieczne powstanie ludowe w Polsce oraz związane z nim odpadnięcie Pomorza od monarchii Piastów. Także tzw. powstanie Strojmira inspirowane było najprawdopodobniej z zewnątrz, choć stały za tym bawarskie czynniki polityczne. Cechą szczególną tego typu wystąpień (prócz wyprawy Ranów na Szczecin) było wykorzystanie propagandy w celu podburzenia miejscowej ludności przeciw władzy i wierze chrześcijańskiej. Jako inspiratorzy wystąpień przeciwko nowej wierze wymieniane są dwa ośrodki polityczne północnego Połabia: Związek Lutycki i plemię Ranów.
Podstawa ideologiczno-propagandowa tego typu zajść bazowała na utrwalonym powszechnie w społeczności interwentów i ich sąsiadów poczuciu związku wspólnoty interweniującej z istotą najwyższą w ogólnie obowiązującym panteonie. Źródła wskazują, że działo się to za pośrednictwem „syna Swaroga”, czyli sławnego radogoskiego Swarożyca. Objawiało się to w ponadplemiennym znaczeniu świątyń wspomnianych ośrodków politycznych (Radogoszcz/Retra, Arkona). Treścią narracji był zapewne ogólnie znany w regionie mit etnogenetyczny, podkreślający wyjątkowość wspólnoty, dawność jej tradycji i szczególne miejsce w historii całego regionu. Połabskie federacje i państewka plemienne stawały się w ten sposób rodzajem „narodu wybranego”. Czynnikiem wzmacniającym wiarygodność narracji propagandowej były sukcesy danego ośrodka politycznego. W przypadku ich braku obowiązująca hierarchia bóstw mogła się zmienić. Opisywane treści propagandowe docierały do odbiorców za pośrednictwem działalności wyroczni bądź zwoływanych doraźnie wieców. Pod pretekstem przeciwdziałania świętokradztwu i przy wykorzystaniu wewnętrznej opozycji podburzano członków sąsiadujących plemion przeciw władzy zwierzchniej. Czynnikiem to ułatwiającym była alienacja kulturowa władcy względem poddanych.
Wróg papista. Postrzeganie katolików na Wyspach Brytyjskich w czasach panowania królowej Anny w świetle brytyjskiej publicystyki
Authors: Makówka Magdalena
Published: June 2021

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wizerunku katolików na łamach brytyjskiej publicystyki w czasach rządów królowej Anny. Analizie poddane zostały zarówno pamflety, jak i prasa z okresu panowania władczyni. Katolików określano w tychże publikacjach z angielskiego jako popery, papist lub popist. Przedstawiono ich w jednoznacznie negatywnym świetle – jako heretyków czy schizmatyków. Jednocześnie katolicyzm łączono z ryzykiem papieskiej tyranii.

Background: Equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) is the most important viral pathogen of equines, causing respiratory illness, abortion, neonatal foal mortality and neurologic disorders. Large numbers of commercial EHV-1 vaccines are available to protect equines from the disease, but they provide only partial protection. Despite immunization with inactivated and modified live virus vaccine, mares show abortions. Present study was aimed to investigate the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of EHV-1 recombinant glycoprotein B (rgB) and gB expressing plasmid DNA against EHV-1 infection in BALB/c mice model. Methods: About 3-4 weeks old 225 female BALB/c mice were selected for the comparative study of immunization followed by challenged with EHV-1/India/Tohana/96-2 strain virus in 5 different groups of 45 animals each. Result: Following immunization, rgB vaccinated mice showed optimal stimulation of EHV-1 gB specific cell mediated and humoral mediated immunity (HMI and CMI). The gB expressing plasmid DNA vaccinated mice developed only CMI while inactivated whole virus vaccinated mice had only HMI. Upon EHV-1 challenge, all infected mice displayed variable levels of clinical signs with changes in body weight, however, vaccinated mice showed very rapid recovery with optimal protection. Positive control group mice showed severe pulmonary lesions along with persistence virus infection till 5 days post challenge (dpc) whereas vaccinated mice had less pulmonary lesion only up to 3 dpc. Minimal lung lesions and early virus clearance was observed in the rgB immunized mice in comparison to the gB plasmid DNA and inactivated EHV-1 vaccine immunized mice. It has been concluded that immunization with rgB elicits optimum protective immune response against EHV-1 infection in mice model. The rgB could be a potential vaccine candidate against EHV-1 infection in equine in the future.

Protecting and Promoting Systems for Essential Health Services During Rollout of COVID-19 Tools
Authors: Millington Kerry A.
Published: June 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a tremendous negative impact on economies of most countries around the world. COVID-19 has disrupted the ability of health systems to deliver on essential health services and has also exposed pre-existing vulnerabilities and inequities in public health systems. According to a key informant survey conducted by WHO, over one year into the COVID-19 pandemic, there still exist substantial disruptions to essential health services. This rapid review examines evidence on successful interventions that could enable adaptive approaches to help manage and respond future pandemics and mitigate the risk of collapse of the public health systems. Countries must use the opportunity provided by the deployment of COVID-19 vaccines to strengthen health services and health systems and find long-lasting solutions for similar future challenges. The review notes that there still exist gaps in preparedness and response to the Covid-19 pandemic. New variants of concern threaten the effectiveness of existing COVID-19 vaccines, vaccine hesitancy slowing rollout, including in Africa, and interrupted and limited supply of COVID-19 tools. More funding is required though to scale up adaptive measures which are working, accelerating new approaches and innovations to improve service delivery. This review also highlights briefly the plight of marginalised social groups, people living with disabilities, women and children during the pandemic. According to estimates by Global Fund, Gavi, Global Financing Facility, access to life-saving health interventions for women, children and adolescents in 36 of the world’s poorest countries has dropped by as much as 25% due to COVID-19. Countries must build on the momentum of health innovations during the COVID-19 crisis to build more resilient health systems that can withstand disruptions by future pandemics.

Published: June 2021

The maxims violation often occurred intentionally or unintentionally in daily human conversation. This study analyzes the maxim violation in one of the Indonesian short films, 'Tilik,' in which Bu Tejo and Yu Ning were the main characters. This present study aims to describe the phenomena of maxim violation by the main characters. It is qualitative descriptive research. The technique used in collecting speech was the note-taking technique, and data were taken from the transcript of the main characters' utterances. Then, to analyze the maxim violation revealed in the short film, the researchers used the Cooperative Principles from Grice's theory, which has four kinds: quality, quantity, relevance, and manner. The findings indicated that the main characters carried out all four maxim types violations. The highest maxim violation found were the quantity and quality maxim. Some certain implicatures were contained when the main character of this short film reckoned to convey the implicit message, ensure the hearer, award astonishment, take for concern, and evade the problem. The study also exposed the rationales behind violating maxims, which helped create more straightforward communication and developing further explanations. Further studies can include more extensive data to obtain more robust findings.
Pro Kontra Kebijakan Pelepasan Narapidana Oleh Pemerintah di Masa Pandemi Covid-19
Authors: Widiatama Arfie Rachman
Published: June 2021

AbstractThe Indonesian Ministry of Law and Human Rights adopted a policy during the Covid-19 pandemic in the form of Permenkumham Number 10 of 2020 concerning the Terms of Providing Assimilation and Integration Rights for Prisoners and Children in Context of Preventing and Combating the Spread of Covid-19. This policy caused controversy because there were parties who refused with basis that the release of prisoners had potential to increase the crime rate, prisoners could repeat their actions. However, there are also people who support it, considering that punishment in Indonesia prioritize corporal punishment (imprisonment) and it is feared that prison is places for the transmission of the Covid-19. This paper will examine the impact of policies issued by the Ministry in relation to views in criminology which are expected to find a conclusion that can be implemented by the government regarding efforts to prevent the transmission of the Covid-19 to prisoners. Keywords: Assimilation; Integration; Prisoners; Kemenkumham; Covid-19.AbstrakKementrian Hukum dan HAM RI mengambil kebijakan di masa pandemi Covid-19 berupa Permenkumham Nomor 10 Tahun 2020 Tentang Syarat Pemberian Asimilasi Dan Hak Integrasi Bagi Narapidana Dan Anak Dalam Rangka Pencegahan Dan Penanggulangan Penyebaran Covid-19. Kebijakan ini menimbulkan kontroversi karena terdapat pihak yang menolak dengan dasar dibebaskannya narapidana berpotensi meningkatkan angka kriminalitas, narapidana ditakutkan dapat mengulang perbuatannya. Namun terdapat pula yang mendukung, mengingat hukuman di Indonesia mengutamakan pidana badan (penjara) dan ditakutkan penjara menjadi salah satu tempat penularan virus Covid-19.

Impacts, Systemic Risk and National Response Measures Concerning COVID-19 – the Island Case Studies of Iceland and Greenland
Authors: Cook David , Jóhannsdóttir Lára
Published: June 2021

The Arctic is a remote region that has become increasingly globalised yet remains extremely vulnerable to many risks. The COVID-19 pandemic presented new challenges to the region. Using the Search, Appraisal, Synthesis and Analysis (SALSA) approach to conduct a meta-synthesis of the academic and grey literature on the impacts of the pandemic, an assessment is conducted of the types of risks that have been presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the scales, and the national response strategies for mitigating the risks. Two case studies are explored, Iceland and Greenland, island nations that exemplify the extremes of the Arctic and reliance on tourism, a sector that was nearly entirely suspended by the pandemic. An evaluative matrix is employed which combines five different scales of risk – nano, micro, meso, macro and cosmic – with a sustainability categorisation of impacts. The risks of the pandemic cut across the respective scale and categories, with the potential for macro-scale events (systemic risk) to unfold linked to economic spillover effects driven by the curtailment of tourism and various supply chain delays. Both Iceland and Greenland have exemplified risk mitigation strategies which prioritise health over wealth, very strictly in the case of the latter. Strict border controls and domestic restrictions have enabled Iceland and Greenland to have much lower case and death numbers than most nations. In addition, Iceland has led the way, globally, in terms of testing and accumulating scientific knowledge concerning the genetic sequencing of the virus. The academic contribution of the paper concerns its broadening of understanding concerning systemic risk, which extends beyond financial implications to includes sustainability dimensions. For policymakers and practitioners, the paper highlights successful risk mitigation and science-based measures that will be useful for any nation tackling a future pandemic, regardless of whether they are island states, Arctic nations or another country.

Staphylococcus aureus mastitis remains a major challenge for dairy farming. Here, 24 mice were immunized and divided into four groups: G1: control; G2: Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) DNA vaccine; G3: F0F1 ATP synthase subunit α (SAS), succinyl-diaminopimelate (SDD), and cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase (CTS) recombinant proteins; and G4: SAS+SDD+CTS plus GM-CSF DNA vaccine. The lymphocyte subpopulations and the intracellular interleukin-17A (IL-17A) and interferon-γ production in the draining lymph node cells were immunophenotyped by flow cytometry. The immunophenotyping and lymphocyte proliferation was determined in spleen cells cultured with and without S. aureus stimulus. Immunization with S. aureus recombinant proteins generated memory cells in draining lymph nodes. Immunization with the three recombinant proteins plus GM-CSF DNA led to an increase in the percentage of IL-17A+ cells among overall CD44+ (memory), T CD4+, CD4+ T CD44+ CD27-, γδ TCR, γδ TCR+ CD44+ CD27+ and TCRVγ4+ cells. Vaccination with S. aureus recombinant proteins associated with GM-CSF DNA vaccine downregulates TH2 immunity. Immunization with the three recombinant proteins plus the GM-CSF DNA led to a proliferation of overall memory T, CD4+ and CD4+ TEM cells upon S. aureus stimulus. This approach fostered type 3 immunity, suggesting the development of a protective immune response against S. aureus.

Capirona (Calycophyllum spruceanum Benth) is a tree species of commercial importance widely distributed in South American forests and is traditionally used for its medicinal properties and wood quality. Studies on this tree species have been focused mainly on wood properties, propagation and growth. Genetic studies on capirona are very limited to date. Today it is possible to explore genetic diversity and population structure in a fast and reliable manner by using molecular markers. We here used 10 Random Amplified Polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) markers to analyze genetic diversity and population structure of 59 samples of capirona that were sampled from four provinces located in the eastern region of the Peruvian amazon. A total of 186 bands were manually scored, generating a 59 x 186 presence/absence matrix. We used R software to calculate genetic distances based on provesti coefficient. A dendrogram was generated using the UPGMA clustering algorithm and showed four groups that correspond to the geographic origin of the capirona samples. Similarly, a discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC) confirmed that capirona is grouped into four clusters. However, we also noticed few accessions are intermingled. Genetic diversity estimation was conducted considering the four groups (populations) identified by adegenet package in R. Nei's genetic diversity estimate varied from 0.26 to 0.39 and Shannon index ranged from 2.48 to 2.83. AMOVA analysis revealed the greatest variation exist within populations (69.7%) and indicated that variability among populations is 31.5%. To our best knowledge, this is the first investigation employing molecular markers in capirona in Peru considering their natural distribution, and sheds light towards its modern genetic improvement and for the sustainable management of forests in Peru.
Yarrowia lipolytica strains and their biotechnological applications: how natural biodiversity and metabolic engineering could contribute to cell factories improvement
Authors: Madzak Catherine
Published: June 2021

Among non-conventional yeasts of industrial interest, the dimorphic oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica appears as one of the most attractive for a large range of white biotechnology applications, from heterologous proteins secretion to cell factories process development. The past, present and potential applications of wild type, traditionally improved or genetically modified Yarrowia lipolytica strains will be resumed, together with the wide array of molecular tools now available to genetically engineer and metabolically remodel this yeast. The present review will also provide a detailed description of Yarrowia lipolytica strains and highlight the natural biodiversity of this yeast, a subject little touched upon in most previous reviews. This work intends to fill this gap by retracing the genealogy of the main Yarrowia lipolytica strains of industrial interest, by illustrating the search for new genetic backgrounds and by providing data about the main publicly available strains in yeast collections worldwide. At last, it will focus on exemplifying how advances in engineering tools can leverage a better biotechnological exploitation of the natural biodiversity of Yarrowia lipolytica and of other yeasts from the Yarrowia clade.
The Generalized Constitutive Law in Nonlinear Structural Analysis of Steel Frames
Authors: Mrówczyński Damian , Gajewski Tomasz , Garbowski Tomasz
Published: June 2021

The article presents a modified finite element (FE) based algorithm for nonlinear analysis of 2D beam structures, which takes into account the influence of the shear forces. The method proposed enables using complex materials with nonlinearities without the need of implementing advanced constitutive models in FE routines. It can be directly integrated with commonly available FE software for linear analysis of beam structures, so its functionality can be easily extended also with material nonlinearities. The presented approach adopts the generalized constitutive law algorithm to iteratively modify the stiffness of beam element. To address an influence of a shear stiffness, a Timoshenko beam element was used. The methodology was implemented and its performance was verified on several numerical examples. For validation, the displacements and the ultimate loads were compared with the values from a commercial FE software. The results shown a good correlation between the reference model and the method proposed.

Published: June 2021

Tidal flooding is one of many disasters caused by climate change. Semarang is one of coastal areas that is affected by climate change which brings tidal flooding in some coastal communities especially Tanjung Mas community in North Semarang. The flood is driven by sea level rise and subsidence. Tidal flooding distrupts the communities of Tanjung Mas in term of physical destruction and enviromental destruction. The disruptions are also affecting both their social and economic activities. The secondary data were collected by doing survey in some instutions who already had the data about tidal flooding. After the data were analyzed by using SPSS with cross tabulation analysis, it shows that the period of residency is ( ) 26,543 > ( ) with statistical significance 5%:11,070. Meanwhile, the level of education is ( ) 42,285  > ( ) with statistical significance in 5% : 9,487. The livelihood is ( ) 17,616 > ( ) with statistical significance in 5% : 9,487.

Published: June 2021

Public accountants play crucial roles in creating trustworthy information for economic development. Ironically, many parts of the world, including Indonesia, experience a shortage of Public Accountants despite the abundant number of accounting students. This study, built on the Theory of Planned Behaviour, aims to examine factors that explain students’ intentions to pursue public accountants as a career. To answer the question, this study uses questionnaires distributed to 115 accounting students from across Indonesia participating in CPA Days 2019. Utilising Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique to analyse their responses, this study has shown that students’ intentions are significantly affected by their attitude towards job-related factors. These factors involve their interests in the professions, time flexibility, learning opportunity, and dynamic environment provided by the jobs. On the contrary, their attitude toward public accountants’ social prestige, earnings potential, influence of others (subjective norm), as well as difficulties factors (perceived behavioural control) are not proven to be significant factors. This finding is not shocking, since it suits Generation Z behaviour in selecting their job. Therefore, to increase students’ interest to become public accountants, the professional body and regulator should promote the attributes of the professions matching to the Generation Z career aspirations.

Authors: Sood Ravi F. , Kamenko Srdjan , McCreary Eleanor , Sather Bergen K. , Schmitt Michael , Peterson Steven L. , Lipira Angelo B.
Published: June 2021

Background:

As carpal tunnel syndrome often precedes other signs of systemic amyloidosis, tenosynovial biopsy at the time of carpal tunnel release may facilitate early diagnosis and treatment. However, evidence-based guidelines for amyloidosis screening during carpal tunnel release have not been established. We sought to develop a predictive model for amyloidosis after carpal tunnel release to inform screening efforts.

Methods:

We performed a retrospective cohort study of adults without known amyloidosis undergoing at least 1 carpal tunnel release from 2000 to 2019 with use of the national Veterans Health Administration database. After estimating the cumulative incidence of amyloidosis after carpal tunnel release, we identified risk factors, constructed a predictive nomogram based on a multivariable subdistribution-hazard competing-risks model, and performed cross-validation.

Results:

Among 89,981 patients undergoing at least 1 carpal tunnel release, 310 were subsequently diagnosed with amyloidosis at a median interval of 4.5 years, corresponding to a cumulative incidence of 0.55% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.47% to 0.63%) at 10 years. Amyloidosis diagnosis following carpal tunnel release was associated with an increased hazard of heart failure (hazard ratio [HR], 4.68; 95% CI: 4.26 to 5.55) and death (HR, 1.27; 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.51) after adjustment for potential confounders. Age, male sex, Black race, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance or multiple myeloma, rheumatoid arthritis, atrial fibrillation, spinal stenosis, and bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome were independently associated with increased risk of amyloidosis diagnosis and were included in the risk nomogram.

Conclusions:

Amyloidosis diagnosis after carpal tunnel release is rare but is associated with poor outcomes. We present an amyloidosis-risk nomogram to help guide tenosynovial biopsy at time of carpal tunnel release.

Published: June 2021

The CREATE-AV™ Helios CFD simulation code has been used to accurately predict rotorcraft performance under a variety of flight conditions. The Helios package contains a suite of tools that contain almost the entire set of functionality needed for a variety of workflows. These workflows include tools customized to properly specify many in situ analysis and visualization capabilities appropriate for rotorcraft analysis. In situ is the process of computing analysis and visualization information during a simulation run before data is saved to disk. In situ has been referred to with a variety of terms including co-processing, covisualization, coviz, etc. In this paper we describe the customization of the pre-processing GUI and corresponding development of the Helios solver code-base to effectively implement in situ analysis and visualization to reduce file IO and speed up workflows for CFD analysts. We showcase how the workflow enables the wide variety of Helios users to effectively work in post-processing tools they are already familiar with as opposed to forcing them to learn new tools in order post-process in situ data extracts being produced by Helios. These data extracts include various sources of information customized to Helios, such as knowledge about the near- and off-body grids, internal surface extracts with patch information, and volumetric extracts meant for fast post-processing of data. Additionally, we demonstrate how in situ can be used by workflow automation tools to help convey information to the user that would be much more difficult when using full data dumps.

Published: June 2021

At industrial enterprises, seaports, ships, more than 80 % of all electrical engineering equipment is asynchronous motors. In a number of cases, asynchronous motors operate with a sharply variable load, in an aggressive environment; herewith they receive power from the network with deviations of the power quality indicators from the normative ones, which causes their high damageability. Turn circuits in the stator windings account for about 40 % of cases of damage to the insulation of the asynchronous motors windings. Untimely detection of the initial moment of the appearance of defects in the asynchronous motors or disruption of the operating modes of the supply network and current circuits result in emergency situations of the electrical complex, equipment downtime and damage. The article discusses the issues of diagnostics of non-full-phase modes of current circuits, mains voltages and turn circuits in the stator windings of the asynchronous motors that receiving power from the networks in conditions of voltage asymmetry. The analysis of the vector diagrams of currents, voltages and additional phase angles of the phase currents displacement arising from the asymmetry of the mains voltages and turn circuits in the stator windings has been fulfilled. The results obtained made it possible to formulate criteria for identifying the initial moment of the turn circuit and two-phase modes, both in the network and in current circuits, in stationary modes. A method for non-destructive testing of the asynchronous motors state as well as a device for its implementation has been developed. The method is based on comparing the vectors of the measured phase currents of the asynchronous motors with their calculated values. The article presents the results of modeling the change in the vectors of phase currents from the number of closed turns in the winding of the asynchronous motors. The power series of asynchronous motors was established, for which the sensitivity of detecting the initial moment of the turn-to-turn short circuit is maximum. Analytical results of the dependence of the sensitivity coefficient for turn-to-turn short circuit on the absolute increment of the modules of phase currents and the corresponding phase angles have been obtained.

Published: June 2021

The development of bulk piezoelectric ceramics with high energy conversion efficiency is of decisive importance for the requirements of the advanced energy harvesting devices toward miniaturization and integration. There is an additional motivation in the piezoelectric ceramics, lead titanate-zirconate (PZT) ceramics are the most widely used energy harvesting (EH) materials. This fact is important because legal restrictions on the use of lead in electronic devices have led to greater efforts being made to develop lead-free alternatives to PZT-based materials. Here, we propose the Bi0.5(Na0.8K0.2)0.5TiO3 (BNKT) lead-free piezoceramics as a good candidate for the replacement of toxic lead compounds for energy harvesting applications. For that, we have carried out a systematic study of the voltage generation of BNKT-based piezoceramics for (EH) purposes. Specifically, our results reveal that the BNKT–based lead-free piezoceramics show adequated effective capacitance and output energy due to more effective performance with a piezoelectric charge coefficient and a maximum generated output voltage as high as 12.8 pC/N and 19.9 V, respectively. Finally, we consider that the design of new lead-free piezoceramics with superior property coefficients and functionalities, such as the BNKT-based piezoceramics, should be seriously considered as candidates for the replacement of the current toxic lead-based compounds.
A model involving meteorological factors for short-to-medium term water level prediction of small- and medium-sized urban rivers
Authors: Qin Yawei , Lei Yongjin , Gong Xiangyu , Ju Wanglai
Published: June 2021

With the increasing of extreme weathers, cities, especially the small- and medium-sized urban rivers with the protection areas less than 200 square hectares, are experiencing significantly more flood disasters worldwide. Heavy snowfalls and rainfalls can rapidly overflow these rivers and cause floods due to the their unique geographic locations and fast runoff and confluence. Therefore, it is particularly important to accurately predict the short-to-medium term water levels of such rivers for reducing and avoiding urban floods. In the present work, a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-support vector machine (SVM) water level predication model was constructed by combining PSO and SVM and trained with the meteorological data of Wuhan, China, and the water level data of Yangtze River. The PSO-SVM model is able to lower mean square error (MSE) 70.47% and increase coefficient of determination (R2) 7.02% of the prediction results, as compared with SVM model alone. The highly accurate PSO-SVM model can be used to predict river water level real-time using the hourly weather and water level data, which thereby provides quantitative data support for urban flood control, construction management of water projects, improving response efficiency and reducing safety risks.

Published: June 2021

Introduction: Clinical data support that the dentatorubrothalamic tract (DRTT) is an effective target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in medically refractory tremor. Nevertheless, the achievement of a realistically detailed depiction of DRTT for preoperative direct targeting remains a challenge.Methods: Ten patients with Parkinson’s disease from the Inselspital Bern database were selected. We used diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) scans for deterministic fiber tracking of the DRTT with the Track Vis software. Thereafter we compared our DSI-characterized DRTT with the existing anatomical data.Results: In 6 out of 10 individuals the full course of DRTT has been in high affiliation/consistency/association/adherence with the anatomical course of DRTT as described in literature.Conclusions: In this study DSI fiber tracking was used to characterize successfully the DRTT anatomical course in its complexity in a quest of the optimal DBS target for parkinsonian tremor. To our knowledge such attempt has not occurred before. Further studies are required to standardize the protocol of DRTT fiber Tracking and to implement it as a valid DBS preoperative planning technique.

Neotrypaea japonica (Ortmann 1891) is a burrowing shrimp that lives in tidal flats. In this study, 123 SNP markers were isolated and characterized from N. japonica. The frequency range of minor alleles varied from 0.2500 to 0.4833, the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.4333 to 0.9000, and the expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.4944 to 0.6503. The polymorphic parameter and inbreeding value varied from 0.3680 to 0.5651 and -0.2768 to 0.1045, respectively. Significant departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction (P < 0.05) were observed for 16 loci. The study of polymorphic SNPs will provide an important theoretical basis for further population genetic diversity analysis and species conservation of N. japonica.

BackgroundDiversity of Tuber species in Taiwan is still poorly known, with only T. formosanum form Melanosporum clade, T. furfuraceum from Rufum clade and T. elevatireticulatum from Puberulum clade were recorded in recent 30 years. During our survey of hypogenous fungi in Taiwan, another whitish truffle was collected from roots of Lithocarpus konishii along a forest road in southern Taiwan in January 2018.ResultsThe whitish truffle is herein described as a new species Tuber lithocarpii, which is appeared to differ from most closely related taxon by its small ascomata size, reddish-brown gleba color, small and globose ascospores size with large pentagonal or irregular marbled reticulated ornamentation. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that T. lithocarpii formed a monophyletic clade within Puberulum clade and placed sister to the Thai whitish truffle T.thailandicum with strong branching support.ConclusionsTuber lithocarpii, which is appeared to differ from the previous recorded species based on morphological and phylogenetic evidences. This is an important and encouraging discovery in Taiwan as to facilitate cognition of Asian truffles, the following development of biotechnological applications and truffle cultivation of native species.
