Published: September 2018

The paper presents the assumptions of the macroscopic mathematical model of honing, taking into account both the kinematics of the tool and the characteristic for this process the distribution of unit pressures occurring in the interaction of sharpening stones on the surface of the honing stones on the surface of the workpiece are characteristic for this process. On the basis of these assemblies an active and tested computer program has been developed, which numerically model this technological process. In the computer memory are created digital quality maps of the surface of the machined cylinder. On the basis of the described assemblies, a working and tested computer program has been developed that numerically models this technological process. Digital quality maps are created in the computer's memory regarding the surface of both the cylinder and the smoothing stones. These maps can be assessed analytically as well as subjected to visualization. The article presents the results of calculations that optimize the height of smooth ground for the process of honing a specific cylinder liner with the analysis of the results ob-tained. The described computer program saves time and funds during dedicated research that optimizes the pa-rameters of this process

Authors: Nowakowski Waldemar , Bojarczyk Piotr , Łukasik Zbigniew
Published: September 2018

The major functionality of railway traffic control system is to ensure efficient and safe railway traffic. Contemporary technique, electronics and informatics in particular, allows for automation of more and more tasks in transportation processes. Irrespective of the manufacturing technology, railway traffic control systems have to meet specific safety requirements. Because of this, these systems belong to group of safety-critical systems, also called safety-related systems. Due to these requirements, development, building and verification processes of railway traffic control systems always end with the assessment of correctness of each process. It should be pointed out that these processes are compound and require high skills level for persons involved in it. Because of this, an environment for an expert system (ExSys Corvid) can be used to automation of these processes. Authors used ExSys Corvid environment to build the expert system for verification and validation of Level Crossing Protection System (LCPS). Research conducted by authors confirmed high usefulness of this technology and showed the need for the usage of it in other railway traffic control systems.

This prompted many manufacturers to design trams, not only with higher quality, comfort of travel, but also meeting the applicable environmental standards.
Crankshaft seals with reduced frictional resistance
Authors: Romanik Grzegorz , Rogula Janusz
Published: September 2018

The article discusses the cooperation of the elastomeric sealing ring with the shaft in terms of wear and losses to overcome friction forces, the construction of a classic seal and a seal with reduced resistance to movement. Because the lip-shaft system is a specific friction pair, the focus has been on local micro contact conditions as a parameter that determines global motion resistances on a macro scale. Since the occurrence of premature sealing failure in spite of small costs of the element itself generates serious costs of repair and downtime of the transport fleet, the problem of durability and reliability of the described type of seals remains valid.

The Krylov problem in the case of a beam on Vlasov inertial foundation
Authors: Szcześniak Wacław , Ataman Magdalena
Published: September 2018

The paper deals with vibrations of the elastic beam caused by the moving force traveling with uniform speed. The function defining the pure forced vibrations (aperiodic vibrations) is presented in a closed form. Dynamic deflection of the beam caused by moving force is compared with the static deflection of the beam subjected to the force , and compressed by axial forces . Comparing equations (9) and (13), it can be concluded that the effect on the deflection of the speed of the moving force is the same as that of an additional compressive force . Selected problems of stability of the beam on the Winkler foundation and on the Vlasov inertial foundation are discussed. One can see that the critical force of the beam on Vlasov foundation is greater than in the case of Winkler's foundation. Numerical examples are presented in the paper

Published: September 2018

Introduction: Salvadora persica, also known as miswak (Kayu sugi), has been used as natural toothbrushing compound for centuries. Many research suggested that it contains medically beneficial properties such as abrasives, antiseptics, astringent, detergent, enzyme inhibitors, and fluoride. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of miswak containing toothpaste on dental plaque accumulation. Methods: The total of 30 subjects consisted of male students of Bandung Institute of Technology, aged between 18 – 26 years old. The plaque value was measured using the Turesky Gilmore & Glickman Index Modification of Quigley & Hein at baseline (day 0), day 1, day 3, and day 7. Commercial toothpaste (Pepsodent®) was used as the control group in this pre and post-test designed, single-blind study. Results: After analysed using the paired t-test, the data showed that the mean plaque index of respondents using miswak and non-miswak containing toothpaste from baseline until day 7, were 1.70/1.19 and 1.61/1.44 respectively (p < 0.05). The mean plaque index reduction of respondents using miswak and non-miswak containing toothpaste from baseline until day 7, were 0.39 and 0.25 respectively (p = 0.00). Conclusion: Both kinds of toothpaste were able to reduce plaque, but miswak containing toothpaste was found to be more effective in reducing dental plaque accumulation.

Authors: Arifin Rafinus , Hidayatullah Taufiqi , Rahayu Sholeha
Published: September 2018

Introduction: The primary second molar relation is also called the terminal plane, which is the relation between the distal surface of the maxillary and mandibular second primary molars in a centric occlusion position. One of the most important characteristics of the ideal occlusion development on the primary dentition is if the primary second molar relation classified as the flush terminal plane. This relation plays a significant role in determining the relation in permanent molar because the eruption of the first permanent molars are guided by the distal surface of the maxillary and mandibular second primary molars. The purpose of this study was to found out the clinical description of the primary second molar relation among the preschool-aged children in four kindergartens in Banda Aceh. Methods: This study was a descriptive study with cross-sectional study approach. The subject selection method was performed with a purposive sampling method involving as much as 37 subjects, which were students of State Kindergarten of Pembina 1, State Kindergarten 2, State Kindergarten 3, and State Kindergarten of Adidarma 4, Banda Aceh. The examination was performed by using the intraoral mirror when the teeth were in the centric occlusion position. Decisions regarding the primary second molar relation were made by the bilateral occlusion (left and right). Results: The flush terminal plane was found in 45.9% of all respondents, the mesial step was 54.1%, and the distal step was 0.0%. Conclusion: The primary second molar relation among preschool-aged children generally had the mesial step.

Authors: Rabelo Fernanda Lima
Published: September 2018

A partir da referência da música de Braguinha, de 1937, esse artigo tem como objetivo realizar uma análise de estereótipos brasileiros reforçados nos séc. XX e XXI, revisitados nas apresentações de grandes eventos na história recente, através da análise de desfiles de escola de samba e aberturas dos eventos internacionais que o Brasil sediou em 2014 e 2016, a Copa do Mundo e as Olimpíadas e Paralimpíadas. A partir da discussão da imagem do Brasil na mídia internacional, e especialmente da valorização de uma imagem nacional mais fortalecida e menos dependente do governo brasileiro, pretende-se ainda entender como que estereótipos do Brasil foram reforçadas ou criticadas pela mídia internacional e organização dos eventos sediados no Brasil, em um movimento ambíguo de reforço e mudança da imagem do país televisionada internacionalmente. Na intenção de trazer uma análise do fortalecimento da imagem brasileira no exterior, busca-se discutir não apenas o papel de estereótipos e clichês na criação de uma imagem internacional do país, mas também a construção de uma nova imagem em narrativas que buscam uma maior valorização da cultura brasileira.
Entre derecho y política: la relación entre bien público y bien común
Authors: Haeberlin Martin
Published: September 2018

El presente texto propone una relación entre bien público y bien común, dos expresiones que, aunque cercanas desde el punto de vista léxico, parecen disociadas en sus áreas de estudio. Para ello, en un primer momento se realizan algunas reflexiones sobre el concepto de bien público desde una perspectiva jurídica. Después, se realizan algunas reflexiones sobre el concepto de bien común, especialmente sobre cuestiones relacionadas con su dificultad conceptual. Después, se propone un concepto posible (entre otros) de bien común, aproximando las nociones de bien público y de bien común. Al final, el texto sugiere que el Derecho ha pensado el concepto de bien público de modo equivocado, considerando que el mayor bien público es el alcance del bien común, desde que vinculado a la creación de una “ambiencia” en torno a la emancipación de las personas.
¿La educación como bien común?
Authors: Flores Crespo Pedro
Published: September 2018

Este artículo presenta tres argumentos. El primero es que la noción de bien común (BC) ofrece ciertas posibilidades analíticas para tratar mejor los problemas educativos. Estas posibilidades son: (1) pensar mejor la “profunda complementariedad” entre la agencia individual y arreglos sociales (Sen), (2) señala las dificultades reales de cómo organizar las interacciones entre individuos, aun cuando haya pluralidad y (3) el proceso participativo es central en la noción del BC. El segundo argumento que se sostiene es que en lugar de tomar globalmente a la educación como un BC, podríamos centrarnos en la calidad de ésta para poder imaginar indicadores de bien común. En tercero –y último– lugar, se relaciona la política de la participación social en la escuela como un área que alude a esas “virtudes colectivas” del BC, las cuales aún no han sido creadas en el contexto de México.Palabras clave: educación, bien común, participación social, escuela, México.

ResumenEste artículo se propone esclarecer la relación entre la fenomenología de Marc Richir y el criticismo kantiano a través de una lectura cruzada de la Analítica del gusto en la Crítica del juicio y de algunos textos del fenomenólogo belga, escritos en los años ochenta, cuando buscaba fundar su propio pensamiento a partir de una lectura original de la tercera Crítica. Será ocasión para clarificar la concepción original del fenómeno no intencional propuesta por Richir (el “fenómeno como nada sino fenómeno”), y de compararla con la concepción estética del fenómeno.Palabras clave: Fenomenología, Richir, Kant, Crítica del juicio, bello, estética. AbstractThis article proposes a clarification of the connection between Marc Richir’s phenomenology and the Kantian criticism. For this purpose, we will examine the Analitic of the Beautiful in the Critique of Judgement at the same time as selected Richirian texts of the eighties, at the time when he tried to find his own thought in an original interpretation of Kant’s third Critique. We will then be able to clarify the original conception of the non-intentional phenomenon proposed by Richir (“the phenomenon as nothing but phenomenon”), and situate it with regard to the aesthetic conception of the phenomenon.Keywords: Phenomenology, Richir, Kant, Critique of judgment, Beautiful, estectics.

A feeding trial was performed on 60, Cobb 500 broiler chicks (14-28 days) assigned to 2 groups (C, E) housed in an experimental hall with 32˚C air temperature, 36% humidity and 23 h light regimen. The conventional diet (C), with corn and soybean meal as basic ingredients, had 3082.48 kcal/kg metabolisable energy and 19.99% crude protein. Unlike the diet of C group, the diet of experimental group (E) had 1% willow bark extract (Salix alba). At the age of 28 days, 5 broilers/group were slaughtered and samples of caecal content were collected for bacteriological examination. Compared to group C, the pathogenic bacteria, Enterobacteriacee and Escherichia coli (colony forming units), were significantly (P≤0.05) lower in the caecum content, while the units of lactobacilli were significantly (P≤0.05) higher in group E. Throughout the experimental period, under heat stress, no mortalities were recorded.The inclusion of 1% willow bark extract in broiler diets (14-28 days) reared under heat stress reduced the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and stimulated the growth of favourable bacteria such as lactobacilli in the gut.

Among bioactive constituents occurring in mushrooms, phenolic compounds focus attention due to their antioxidant activity. Also, a special attention is given to mushrooms secreting extra cellular enzymes such as lignin peroxidases (LiP), manganese peroxidase (MnP) and laccase (Lac), enzymes which can be used in biodegradation processes. The aim of the present study was to investigate ten mushroom species for total phenolic compounds, lignocellulolytic enzymes and for their synthetic dyes decolourisation potential. For this purpose, 70% ethanol extracts of ten dried mushrooms were analysed using spectrophotometric methods. The results revealed that total phenolic compounds in the extracts were the highest in A. campestris, P. ostreatus var. Florida and T. versicolor. Laccase activity showed high values in extracts from P. ostreatus var. Florida, A. campestris, L. edodes, and G. applanatum. Lignin peroxidases (LiP) activity showed high values in extracts from A. campestris, F. velutipes, P. ostreatus var. Florida and T. versicolor, whereas manganese peroxidase (MnP) activity was highest in extracts from P. ostreatus var. Florida, A. campestris and G. applanatum. It was found that some of the fungal extracts showed high activities in decolorizing of synthetic dyes.

This paper aims at specifying the determinants of 12-month ahead and 24-month ahead inflation expectations in Turkey by using monthly data from April 2006 to December 2016. Put differently, this paper tries to shed light on how inflation expectations respond to changes in past inflation rate, inflation target, output gap, USD/TL exchange rate, oil price, and EMBI in Turkey. To this end, the paper first conducts unit root tests in order to detect the order of integration of the variables. Then, the paper employs the autoregressive distributed lag approach to examine whether there is a cointegration relationship among variables and to estimate long-run parameters. According to the findings, 12-month ahead expected inflation rate is positively related to past inflation rate, inflation target, output gap, USD/TL exchange rate, and oil price and is negatively related to EMBI. Besides, 24-month ahead expected inflation rate is positively related to past inflation rate and USD/TL exchange rate and is negatively related to inflation target and EMBI. Upon its findings, the paper makes some inferences about the success of inflation targeting strategy in Turkey.

Authors: Patel Ritesh
Published: September 2018

The paper compares the before and after merger position of long term profitability with respect to selected Indian banks for a period of 2003-04 to 2013-2014. The financial performance is evaluated on the basis of various variables. The study found a negative impact of merger on return on equity, return on assets, Net profit ratio, yield on advance and yield on investment. However, variables, namely, the Earnings per Share, Profit per employee and Business per employee have shown positive trend and grown after the merger. It has been observed that after the merger, the Assets, Equity, Investment and advances of all banks increases, but due to underutilization, their respective yield decreases. On a contrary, the business per employee and profit per employee have increased due to optimum utilization of human resources. By applying the Comparative Analysis, the paper also assesses the financial performance of acquiring bank with the banking industry. The Bank of Baroda and Oriental bank of commerce has found decreases in Yield on Advances and yield on investment as compared to average of all banks in the postmerger period. State bank of India & IDBI Bank has higher business per employee and profit per employee as compared to industry average.

Published: September 2018

Due to the great danger of the collision of oil tankers, lots of research on the collision of oil tankers has been carried out. But, at present, the research on the collision of oil tankers mainly focuses on the loading condition of the struck ship, ignores the impact on the loading condition of the striking ship. However, during the actual oil tanker collision, the striking ship is generally in the state of loading. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out the analysis of the impact of the loading condition of the striking ship on the collision damage of the oil tanker. In this paper, the effect of striking ship with loading on the impact performance of the side structure during the collision of the cargo double hull oil tanker has been investigated. The ship collision model was established by using the finite element software ANSYS/LS-DYNA which is based on 7000 tons of double hull oil tankers. Based on the analysis of the collision force, impact of striking speed changes, impact of striking deep changes and structural energy absorption during the collision process, the influence of the striking ship with loading on the damage mechanism and the impact performance of the double shell oil ship side structure was expounded. The results show that the influence of the striking ship with loading can be great to the damage to side hull during the research of the collision performance of the oil tanker.

Price decision is studied in a risk-averse retailer-dominated dual-channel supply chain, which consisting of one manufacturers and one retailer with both off-line and on-line channels. Firstly, two mean-variance models in centralized and decentralized supply chain are established. Secondly, the optimal solutions under the two decision modes are compared and analyzed. The results shows that the price of dual-channel of retailer decreased with the increase of retailers’ risk- aversion coefficient and the standard deviation of the fluctuation of market demand, while the wholesale price changes is on the contrary; in addition, when the market demand is greater than a certain value, the prices of dual channel are correspondingly higher in decentralized supply chain than in centralized supply chain, and vice versa. In addition, when the retailer’s risk aversion is in a certain interval, the expected utility of the whole supply chain is greater in centralized supply chain than in decentralized decision, and vice versa. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the above conclusions.

This paper analyzes the requirements of the information transmission network of ship integrated condition monitoring system, and proposes a design scheme of ship condition monitoring system based on wireless ad hoc network. The wireless ad hoc network protocol was designed, its networking process was analyzed in detail, and the network transmission performance of the monitoring system was tested. The results proved the feasibility of the system. The above solution can be used for the transmission of ship state information that satisfies the requirements of wireless transmission, and has important theoretical and practical significance. The slot allocation algorithm has been receiving extensive attention as an important part of the TDMA system research. This paper analyzes the summarization and summarization of TDMA time slot assignment algorithms from several aspects such as slot synchronization, existing slot allocation algorithm, and slot assignment model, laying an important foundation for researchers to do further research. In the TDMA system, time is divided into non-overlapping time frames, and the time frames are divided into non-overlapping time slots. Each node in the network performs corresponding operations in each time slot.
A Probabilistic Approach to Error Detection&Correction for Tree-Mapping Grammars
Authors: vor der Brück Tim
Published: September 2018

Rule-based natural language generation denotes the process of converting a semantic input structure into a surface representation by means of a grammar. In the following, we assume that this grammar is handcrafted and not automatically created for instance by a deep neural network. Such a grammar might comprise of a large set of rules. A single error in these rules can already have a large impact on the quality of the generated sentences, potentially causing even a complete failure of the entire generation process. Searching for errors in these rules can be quite tedious and time-consuming due to potentially complex and recursive dependencies. This work proposes a statistical approach to recognizing errors and providing suggestions for correcting certain kinds of errors by cross-checking the grammar with the semantic input structure. The basic assumption is the correctness of the latter, which is usually a valid hypothesis due to the fact that these input structures are often automatically created.

Our evaluation reveals that in many cases an automatic error detection and correction is indeed possible.
