"A gente é invisível": sobre espaço carcerário feminino e gênero
Authors: Fioravante Karina Eugenia
Published: September 2018

Este artículo tiene por objetivo traer algunas consideraciones acerca de los espacios carcelarios femeninos. Para ello, se utilizan las perspectivas traídas por las geografías feministas, especialmente sobre el concepto de género. El texto se divide en dos partes: primeramente, se discuten algunas reflexiones teóricas que sirvieron como guía para la problematización de la espacialidad carcelaria femenina, señalando que esta se constituye de forma dinámica y está permanentemente en construcción. Posteriormente, este texto trae algunas consideraciones sobre el cotidiano carcelario vivenciado por las mujeres encarceladas en la ciudad de Ponta Grossa, Paraná, Brasil, evidenciando que esa espacialidad es permeada y traspasada por nítidas relaciones de poder.

Authors: Ferraro Rosana , Gareis María Cecilia , Zulaica Laura
Published: September 2018

El cambio climático y su efecto más inmediato, el calentamiento global, plantean desafíos para la gestión ambiental de las ciudades. Uno de ellos es estimar su huella de carbono con la finalidad de morigerar los potenciales impactos. El presente trabajo propone calcular las emisiones de CO2 producidas por las actividades antrópicas de los 15 asentamientos urbanos de Argentina de más de 300.000 habitantes. Para ello se analizaron por localidad los consumos de energía eléctrica y se calcularon las emisiones de CO2 por sector de demanda eléctrica. Los resultados muestran que Argentina, en general, y los grandes asentamientos, en particular, tienen una baja contribución de emisiones de CO2, que se asocian en orden decreciente con la actividad industrial, residencial y comercial.

Authors: Sletto Bjorn , Bryan Joe , Torrado Marla , Hale Charles , Barry Deborah
Published: September 2018

El mapeo participativo lo han usado comunidades indígenas y afrodescendientes en luchas de derecho a tierras y recursos. Sin embargo, nuevas presiones relacionadas con las políticas de cambio climático y prácticas extractivas han surgido en la reconceptualización del mapeo participativo. Este artículo presenta su historia en el contexto de las reformas territoriales y las leyes internacionales del siglo XX. Se discuten los avances del mapeo participativo, incluyendo usos innovadores de mapeo para representaciones espaciales, conservación cultural y manejo endógeno de recursos y gobernación comunitaria. Estas reflexiones surgen del Foro Internacional Cartografía Participativa y Derechos al Territorio y los Recursos, que tuvo lugar en la Universidad de los Andes (Bogotá, Colombia) en el 2011.
Factores de la vulnerabilidad de los humedales altoandinos de Colombia al cambio climático global
Authors: Franco Vidal Lorena , Delgado Juliana , Andrade Germán I.
Published: September 2018

Los humedales altoandinos en Colombia son esenciales para la adaptación de muchas comunidades humanas al cambio climático y también particularmente sensibles a este fenómeno. Para la gestión adaptativa de los humedales, basada en su carácter y funcionalidadecosistémica, resulta insuficiente conocer solo la magnitud de la amenaza climática; también se deben conocer aspectos que determinan una mayor vulnerabilidad. En la literatura se encuentran atributos y procesos que pueden, bajo determinadas circunstancias, funcionar como factores de vulnerabilidad de los humedales altoandinos al cambio climático. Con base en ellos, aquí se proponen factores ecológicos y sociales de vulnerabilidad que, interpretados de manera conjunta en la perspectiva del cambio climático, permiten orientar su manejo hacia trayectorias de cambio que sean socioecológicamente resilientes al fenómeno.
Nurturing transformative U.S. energy research: Two guiding principles
Authors: Narayanamurti Venkatesh , Tsao Jeffrey Y.
Published: September 2018

We raise for debate and discussion what in our opinion is a growing mis-control and mis-protection of U.S. energy research. We outline the origin of this mis-control and mis-protection, and propose two guiding principles to mitigate them and instead nurture research: (1) focus on people, not projects; and (2) culturally insulate research from development, but not science from technology.

Energy research is critical to continuing advances in human productivity and welfare. In this Commentary, we raise for debate and discussion what in our view is a growing mis-control and mis-protection of U.S. energy research. This flawed approach originates in natural human tendencies exacerbated by an historical misunderstanding of research and development, science and technology, and the relationships between them. We outline the origin of the mis-control and mis-protection, and propose two guiding principles to mitigate them and instead nurture research: (i) focus on people, not projects; and (ii) culturally insulate research from development, but not science from technology. Our hope is to introduce these principles into the discourse now, so they can help guide policy changes in U.S. energy research and development that are currently being driven by powerful geopolitical winds.

Summary: Two foundational guiding principles are proposed to mitigate a growing mis-control and mis-protection of U.S. energy research, and instead to nurture it.

Background.Hemangiopericytoma is a rare type of tumor of vascular origin and unknown malignant potential.

Case Report.The article presents clinical case which is rarely observed, especially in children. A 12-year-old boy was admitted to Research Institute of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology with results of head MRI performed at a local clinic which demonstrated presence of a tumor of parameningeal localization. A patient passed complete clinical examination including some radiation diagnostic techniques, MRI, morphological, and immunohistochemical analyses and was diagnosed with sinonasal hemangiopericytoma of parameningeal localization T1bN0M0. The examination schedule, tactics, and treatment methods were selected individually for this patient since a commonly acknowledged treatment method had not been developed due to the lack of statistically relevant number of patient cases. Basing on the data on disease treatment records in Europe and Russia, patient received a complex treatment: three courses of neoadjuvant polychemotherapy, transnasal resection of tumor, and radiotherapy on the primary focus.

Conclusion.At present the patient is alive with no sign of initial disease. The forecast is favourable. Effectiveness of complex treatment of patients with sinonasal hemangiopericytoma was demonstrated. The primary role of endonasal surgery during treatment of sinonasal hemangiopericytoma in a 12-year-old patient was indicated.

Osteogenesis imperfect (OI) is a rare genetic disease of connective tissue, the main manifestation are fractures that are developing due to increased bone fragility in both children and adults. Currently, it is known that the genetic basis of the disease in 90% of cases are violations in the genes COL1A1 and COL1A2. Diagnosis of this disease is mostly based on clinical and radiological data; some laboratory parameters of blood and urine can provide additional information but, due to the low specificity, these tests are not widely used in clinical practice when diagnosing the bone pathology. Separate extensive problem is the realization of timely differential diagnosis followed by the establishment of correct diagnosis and development of the right tactics. Currently, the standard of management of patients with OI is a multidisciplinary approach that allows to perform the necessary examination of a child, to make an accurate diagnosis, and start the therapy in time. A practitioneer should have sufficient knowledge about the disease and be able to apply it practically to realize the treatment tactics.

Authors: Carneiro Douglas Mesquita , E Silva Carlos Eduardo Lobo , Cravo Tulio Antonio
Published: September 2018

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a importância do tamanho das firmas industriais para o crescimento econômico das 558 microrregiões do Brasil no período de 1999 a 2009. Para tanto, fez-se uso de estimações de dados em painel via system GMM e uma análise de econometria espacial. As estimativas para o Brasil como um todo mostram que a presença de grandes empresas do setor industrial contribuiu positivamente para o crescimento econômico das microrregiões, enquanto que as pequenas empresas apresentaram uma relação negativa com o crescimento. A presença de heterogeneidade espacial na amostra é caracterizada por dois regimes espaciais diferentes no que tange à renda per capita. A análise de cada regime espacial separadamente aponta que a relação entre tamanho de empresa e crescimento econômico nas regiões mais ricas permanece a mesma, enquanto que, nas regiões de Produto Interno Bruto - PIB per capita menor, o tamanho da empresa não influencia no crescimento econômico.

Published: September 2018

O artigo aborda a questão da cooperação territorial como um principio e requisito necessário para um melhor desenvolvimento local e regional. Sustenta-se o argumento de que tão importante quanto o desenho de políticas com o objetivo de desenvolvimento territorial sustentável (o quê) é a maneira pela qual estas são decididas, projetadas e, acima de tudo, aplicadas (o como). O texto é dividido em três grandes blocos. A primeira trata da cooperação como uma categoria transversal que se aplica a partir de três abordagens: governo e administração do Estado, teorias do desenvolvimento econômico regional e local, e do ponto de vista do planejamento e da coesão territorial; e em diferentes escalas, portanto, de natureza multinível e cobertura geográfica diversificada (internacional, europeua, espanhola e valenciana). Nas duas seções seguintes, são exemplos de experiências de cooperação e resultados obtidos (em diferentes escalas e entre diferentes atores e instituições.) como uma ferramenta para o desenvolvimento territorial em áreas rurais, primeiro, e turísticas, depois. O texto termina com uma breve síntese final.
Digital apartheid and the effect of mobile technology during rural fieldwork
Authors: Barnard-Ashton Paula , Adams Fasloen , Rothberg Alan , McInerney Patricia
Published: September 2018

Fourth year occupational therapy students at the University of the Witwatersrand attend a three-week rural fieldwork placement. During this time, they are in a resource-limited environment with limited access to their usual Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) in a blended learning curriculum, thereby contributing to 'digital apartheid' between students from different socioeconomic backgrounds. This study investigates the effect of mobile technology during rural fieldwork to address 'digital apartheid'. A self-reporting pre-test post-test survey design was used. Students self-evaluated their understanding of fieldwork learning objectives at the start of the year and again midyear. Rural fieldwork marks were collected midyear. The experimental group (n=l3) accessed the VLE via the mobile technology, whereas the control group (n0=7) did not. Data were analysed for significance and effect size. While there was no significant difference in the student marks (p=0.27), there was a significant effect on self-evaluated knowledge gain for the experimental group's rural fieldwork learning objectives (d=2.02) which was a notably larger effect size than their other fieldwork learning objectives (d=l.36) and that of the control group's learning objectives. The use of mobile technology during rural fieldwork was a successful strategy towards 'digital democracy' by allowing students equal access to access the VLE. Key words: Digital apartheid, mobile learning, mobile technology,occupational therapy, blended learning, rural clinical fieldwork
MODELLING OF SOCIO-HUMANITARIAN EDUCATION PLATFORM FOR TRANS-PROFESSIONALISM DEVELOPMENT OF PROFESSIONALS INVOLVED IN MULTI-DISCIPLINARY PROJECTS
Authors: Zeer E. F. , Krezhevskikh O. V.
Published: September 2018

Introduction. Dynamic changes of the labour market and blurring of the boundaries of professional functions of a modern expert dictate the need for trans-professionalism development. Trans-professionalism development involves such meta qualities as social and professional mobility, communicativeness, developed emotional intelligence, innovation, tolerance for uncertainty, etc. All members of multi-disciplinary projects have to possess the listed above characteristics. Joint activity of several professional groups requires the participants of the project to possess the following skills and abilities: search for the consistent principles of work; “common language”; coherence of various abilities, caused by specifics of their occupation, to differentiate duties and to work harmoniously in neutral spheres; mastering of new roles in the cooperation process.

The aimof the publication is to present a product of structural-functional modelling which is the socio-humanitarian educational platform of trans-professionalism development of professionals involved in multi-disciplinary projects (hereinafter the “Platform”).

Methodology and research methods. The authors used a comparative analysis and generalization of the models of the multi-professional relations offered by foreign and Russian authors. The methodological framework of the research was based on the following approaches to the design of the Platform: multidimensional, trans-disciplinary, network, design, nonlinear synergetic, and transpective competency-based.

Results and scientific novelty.The structural and functional model of the Platform has been developed and described. The Platform model has a block-modular organization. It consists of three blocks: basic (invariant), poly professional and functional. The technological basis of the Platform is social and humanitarian educational technologies.

The authors highlighted the principles of the Platform. In the present study, the authors substantiated the importance of the development of the structural and functional model of the Platform in terms of additional education. The presented model of the Platform accumulates the results of theoretical and applied research in the field of vocational education. For the first time, different models of multi-professional relations (from inter-professional to trans-professional) have been used in a single course of additional education. The development of adjacent areas of activity is a stage for the development of distant, non-contiguous areas. Interactive development of these spheres is facilitated by immersion of listeners in the poly professional communicative environments. The result of the implementation of the Platform is a trans-professional project of the full life cycle.

Practical significance. The results of the study can be partially or fully applied in the system of additional education.

Authors: Varela Tembra Juan , Rodríguez Machado Eduardo
Published: September 2018

La lectura de la obra Cuentos populares rusos de Afanásiev nos llevó a investigar más detenidamente la figura de Baba Yaga, que como el esto de las brujas en la mayoría de los cuentos representaba el mal, y su presencia en España en forma de relatos infantiles. Esta indagación constató que de todas las figuras presentes en los mitos y leyendas de los pueblos eslavos en general, y del pueblo ruso en particular, ninguna ha tenido un calado tan hondo entre los lectores españoles como la de la bruja Baba Yaga. El presente trabajo ha sido ideado y realizado con la clara intención de poner de manifiesto como la figura de la bruja Baba Yaga se ha vuelto el personaje más representativo del folclore ruso en España. También, dada su importancia, se quiere resaltar su gran valor didáctico como trasmisora de valores y tradiciones.

Jurgen and the Arthurian legend
Authors: Rodríguez López-Abadía Arturo
Published: September 2018

Jurgen, a comedy of justice, by James Branch Cabell is one of the most classical pieces of American fantastic literature and has inspired many writers, especially Terry Pratchett, that follows the idea of parodying medieval-inspired countries with a touch of magic, displayed mostly for laughs. Jurgen tells the story of a pawnbroker/poet that one day makes the Devil a favour and the Devil, grateful, grants him for a period of one year the possibility of returning to his youthful self to enjoy life and have love adventures. In the fantasy-medieval land where he lives, the Arthurian legend is real, and he will encounter the great characters such as Guinevere or Anaitis, the Lady of the Lake and have love affairs with every single one of them. But, at the end of this period, he returns home with some material for his poetry and to the normal life of a miserable married man.
Integracja, emancypacja czy afirmacja? Tożsamości osób z niepełnosprawnościami we współczesnej Polsce
Authors: Żuchowska-Skiba Dorota
Published: September 2018

Sytuacja osób z niepełnosprawnościami ulega zasadniczej przemianie w ostatnich dziesięcioleciach. Przyczyniają się do tego zmiany zachodzące w samym środowisku osób z niepełnosprawnościami, które aktywnie włączają się do walki o swoje prawa oraz upowszechniający się społeczny model definiowania niepełnosprawności. Stwarza to warunki, w których tożsamości osób z niepełnosprawnościami mogą ulec przedefiniowniu. Szczególnie dotyczy to osób podejmujących aktywne działania na rzecz swojego środowiska, których tożsamość jest konstruowana w oparciu o nowe role społeczne i związane z nimi działania, polegające na zaangażowaniu w aktywności mające na celu zmianę położenia osób z niepełnosprawnościami w społeczeństwie. Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest pokazanie, na ile w środowisku osób z niepełnosprawnościami wśród osób aktywnie działających na jego rzecz kształtują się dziś pozytywne tożsamości oparte na afirmacji różnorodności, a na ile wciąż jeszcze postrzegają oni niepełnosprawność jako piętno, powodujące wykluczenie osób z niepełnosprawnościami ze społeczeństwa. Badanie zrealizowano za pomocą wywiadu narracyjnego z osobami aktywnie działającymi na rzecz środowiska osób z niepełnosprawnościami, aby zobaczyć, jakie przyjmują tożsamości.
Niepełnosprawność w grach wideo – omówienie na przykładach wybranych wirtualnych postaci
Authors: Gałuszka Damian , Żuchowska-Skiba Dorota
Published: September 2018

Obrazy niepełnosprawności obecne w mediach w istotny sposób wpływają na postrzeganie osób z niepełnosprawnościami. W oparciu o nie kształtują się stereotypowe wyobrażenia, które przekładają się na postawy oraz oczekiwania, jakie w stosunku do tej kategorii społecznej ma znaczna część społeczeństwa. Dotychczasowe badania koncentrowały się na ukazywaniu obrazów osób z niepełnosprawnościami w tradycyjnych mediach. Tymczasem we współczesnej kulturze popularnej coraz większą rolę odgrywają nowe media, w tym gry wideo. W związku z tym dziś istotnego znaczenia nabiera zbadanie sposobów, w jakie są w nich ukazywane postacie z niepełnosprawnościami. Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest odtworzenie typowych wizerunków postaci z niepełnosprawnościami w grach wideo, co pozwoli na pokazanie, na ile budowane obrazy utrwalają lub zmieniają istniejące stereotypy. Analizie poddano wybrane gry wideo, w których pojawiają się bohaterowie z niepełnosprawnością. Badanie oparto na analizie kodów kulturowych. Metoda ta została zaadaptowana do badania specyficznego medium, jakim są gry wideo, które angażują użytkownika w proces tworzenia postaci i podejmowanych przez nią działań w świecie gry.

Published: September 2018

Oocyte vitrification is a major challenge in assisted reproductive technology. Oocyte vitrification with cumulus cells provide benefits in the process of maturation and fertilization. Vitrification leads to rapid temperature changes, therefore the decreasing in temperature could damage the cells even when the morphology was normal. Vitrification of mature oocytes is common because of its low sensitiveness towards low temperatures than immature oocytes. The aim of the research was to compare the effect of vitrification before and after in vitro maturation to the expression of hyaluronan. Maturation was operated in medium TC 50 ?L in CO2 incubators for 24 hours. Vitrification started with washing oocyte in PBS basic medium supplemented with 20% serum for 1-2 minutes, then in equilibration medium PBS + 20% serum + 10% ethylene glycol for 10-14 minutes, then transferred to 20% serum + PBS + 0.5 M sucrose + 15% ethylene glycol + PROH 15% for 25-30 seconds. Thawing was processed by submerging the oocytes in the media: 1). PBS + 20% serum + 0.5 M sucrose (K1); 2) PBS + 20% serum + 0.25 M sucrose (K2); and 3).PBS + 20% serum + 0.1 M sucrose (K3). Immunocytochemical stain was performed to evaluate the hyaluronan expression. Remmele scale index (Immunoreactive score, IRS) was used to read the result. There was no differences of hyaluronan expression in oocyte and cumulus group of K1, K2 and K3 at p< 0.05, statistically. We concluded that there was no difference of hyaluronan expression on oocyte and cumulus between vitrified oocyte of pre and post in vitro maturation which indicated that oocyte could be vitrified in the immature and mature state.

Paramphistomiasis is a parasiter disease caused by an Paramphistomum sp worms infection. The disease can cause a considerable decline in livestock productivity, therefore it is catagorized as one of economic affected diseases. The aims of this research were to determine the prevalence and distribution of paramphistomiasis in Bali cattle in Prafi District of Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province; and to identify some of the risk factors that associated with the paramphistomiasis prevalence. The research was done between February and March 2016. The feces samples were taken from 369 cattles perrectal were chosen by using proportional random sampling technique at village level. A total of 127 farmer respondents were interviewed. The feces samples were examined with sedimentation test to identify the existence eggs of Paramphistomum sp. based on their morphology. The data were analyzed in univariate to obtain the prevalence by dividing the number of positive sample with the number of samples inspected multiplied by 100%. Then, bivariate analysis was performed by using chi square (c2), and odds ratio (OR). The distribution of paramphistomiasis in Bali cattle that rearing in Prafi District has prevalence value in each village: Udapi Hilir, Desay, Aimasi, and Prafi Mulya was 14.74%; 12.04%; 9.18% and 1.48% respectively.

Surabaya is the capital city of East Java Province and is a large city with a population of 2,807 inhabitants. According to WHO in 2011 showed that 400,000 victims under the age of 25 who died on the highway, with an average mortality rate of 1,000 children and adolescents each day. The cause of the greatest accidents is caused by human factors that do not apply discipline in traffic, low awareness, and lack of knowledge about safety riding. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between safety factor driving with saefty riding behavior on students of SMK PGRI 4 Surabaya. This research is an observational analytic research using research method with cross sectional design. The sample of 74 respondents was taken randomly using simple random sampling technique. Data collection using questionnaires tool filled by respondents. Data analysis in this study using Chi Square test with 5% significance value to see the relationship between independent variables with dependent variable. Based on the research conducted there is no significant relationship between independent variables with dependent variable with p-value exceed the value of meaning. In order to minimize the incidence of traffic accidents involving students it is good that schools always do the provision of a bound regulation that students are required to use SNI helmets when riding a motorcycle, no need to use expensive helmet but just use a helmet that complies with safety standards. Facilities for students are expected to always comply with existing traffic rules while driving.Keyword: safety riding, student, safety riding behaviour
Development of SWAT-Paddy for Simulating Lowland Paddy Fields

Published: September 2018

The recent increase in global consumption of rice has led to increased demand for sustainable water management in paddy cultivation. In this study, we propose an enhanced paddy simulation module to be introduced to Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to evaluate the sustainability of paddy cultivation. The enhancements added to SWAT include: (1) modification of water balance calculation for impounded fields, (2) addition of an irrigation management option for paddy fields that are characterized by flood irrigation with target water depth, and (3) addition of a puddling operation that influences the water quality and infiltration rate of the top soil layer. In a case study, the enhanced model, entitled SWAT-Paddy, was applied to an agricultural watershed in Japan. The results showed that the SWAT-Paddy successfully represented paddy cultivation, water management, and discharge processes. Simulated daily discharge rates with SWAT-Paddy (R2 = 0.8) were superior to the SWAT result (R2 = 0.002). SWAT-Paddy allows the simulation of paddy management processes realistically, and thus can enhance model accuracy in paddy-dominant agricultural watersheds.

Published: September 2018

The identification of informal settlements in urban areas is an important step in developing and implementing pro-poor urban policies. Understanding when, where and who lives inside informal settlements is critical to efforts to improve their resilience. This study aims to analyse the capability of machine-learning (ML) methods to map informal areas in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, using very-high-resolution (VHR) imagery and terrain data. Fourteen indicators of settlement characteristics were derived and mapped using an object-based ML approach and VHR imagery. These indicators were categorised according to three different spatial levels: environ, settlement and object. The most useful indicators for prediction were found to be density and texture measures, (with random forest (RF) relative importance measures of over 25% and 23% respectively). The success of this approach was evaluated using a small, fully independent validation dataset. Informal areas were mapped with an overall accuracy of 91%. Object-based ML as a hybrid approach performed better (8%) than object-based image analysis alone due to its ability to encompass all available geospatial levels.

Continuous research into the availability of phosphorus (P) in forest soil is critical for sustainable management of forest ecosystems. In this study, we used sequential chemical extraction and 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-NMR) to evaluate the form and distribution of inorganic P (Pi) and organic P (Po) in Casuarina forest soils of a subtropical coastal sand dune at Houlong in Taiwan. The soil samples were collected from humic (+2-0 cm) and mineral layers (mineral-I: 0-10, mineral-II: 10-20 cm) at two topographic locations (upland and lowland) by elevation. Sequential chemical extraction revealed that the NaOH-Po fraction, as moderately recalcitrant P, was the dominant form in humic and mineral-I layers in both upland and lowland soils, whereas the cHCl-Pi fraction was the dominant form in the mineral-II layer. Resistant P content, including NaOH-Pi, HCl-Pi, cHCl-Pi, and cHCl-Po fractions, was higher in the upland than lowland in the corresponding layers; however, labile P content, NaHCO3-Po, showed the opposite pattern. Content of resistant Pi (NaOH-Pi, HCl-Pi, and cHCl-Pi) increased significantly with depth, but that of labile Pi (resin-Pi and NaHCO3-Pi) and recalcitrant Po (NaHCO3-Po, NaOH-Po, and cHCl-Po) decreased significantly with depth at both locations. 31P-NMR spectroscopy revealed inorganic orthophosphate and monoesters-P as the major forms in this area. The proportions of Pi and Po evaluated by sequential chemical extraction and 31P-NMR spectroscopy were basically consistent. The results indicated that the soils were in weathered conditions. Furthermore, the P distribution and forms significantly differed between the upland and lowland by variation in elevation and eolian aggradation effects in this coastal sand dune landscape.
General and Prospective Views on Oxidation Reactions in Heterogeneous Catalysis
Authors: Valange Sabine , Védrine Jacques
Published: September 2018

In this short review paper we have assembled the main characteristics of partial oxidation reactions (oxidative dehydrogenation and selective oxidation to olefins or oxygenates, as aldehydes and carboxylic acids and nitriles), as well as total oxidation, particularly for depollution, environmental issues and wastewater treatments. Both gas-solid and liquid-solid media have been considered with recent and representative examples within these fields. We have also discussed about their potential and prospective industrial applications. Particular attention has been brought to new raw materials stemming from biomass and to liquid-solid catalysts cases. This review paper also summarizes the progresses made in the use of unconventional activation methods for performing oxidation reactions, highlighting the synergy of these technologies with heterogeneous catalysis. Focus has been centered on usual catalysts activation methods but also on less usual ones, such as the use of ultrasounds, microwaves, grinding (mechanochemistry) and photo-activated processes, as well as their combined use.
Inter/Intramolecular Bonds in TH5+ (T = C/Si/Ge): The Uniqueness of Carbon Bonds in Tetrel Bonds
Authors: Gnanasekar Sharon Priya , Arunan Eangannan
Published: September 2018

Atoms in Molecules (AIM), Natural Bond Orbital (NBO), and normal coordinate analysis have been carried out at the global minimum structures of TH5+ (T = C/Si/Ge). All these analyses lead to a consistent structure for these three protonated TH4 molecules. The CH5+ has a structure with three short and two long C-H covalent bonds and no H-H bond. Hence, the popular characterization of protonated methane as a weakly bound CH3+ and H2 is inconsistent with these results. However,  SiH5+ and GeH5+ are both indeed a complex formed between TH3+ and H2 stabilized by a tetrel bond, with the H2 being the tetrel bond acceptor. The three-center-two-electron bond (3c-2e) in CH5+ has an open structure, which can be characterized as a V-type 3c-2e bond and that found in SiH5+ and GeH5+ is a T-type 3c-2e bond. This difference could be understood based on the typical C-H, Si-H, Ge-H and H-H bond energies. Moreover, this structural difference observed in TH5+ can explain the trend in proton affinity of TH4.  Carbon is selective in forming a ‘tetrel bond’ and when it does, it might be worthwhile to highlight it as a ‘carbon bond’.
“To Build Out of a New Material with a New Form”. The Arrival of Concrete in Icelandic Architecture and the Rhetoric of Guðmundur Hannesson
Authors: Nannini Sofia
Published: September 2018

The quick modernisation of Iceland, that rapidly took place from the first decades of the 20th century onwards, did not only bring fishing trawlers and cars into the country. Among all the techniques of modernity, concrete [steinsteypa] was to become the key material that changed the built landscape of the island and was soon adopted by the first Icelandic architects, such as Rögnvaldur Ólafsson (1874–1914) and Guðjón Samúelsson (1887–1950). Interestingly, the main supporter of this material was Guðmundur Hannesson (1866–1946), a medical doctor and town planner who wrote several articles and even a guidebook published in 1921 and titled Steinsteypa. Leiðarvísir fyrir alþýðu og viðvaninga [Concrete. Guidebook for Common People and Beginners]. In a country that was seeking an architectural self-representation, he understood the technical and formal possibilities that concrete could offer: he claimed, “people [...] were trying to change, to build out of a new material with a new form” (Guðmundur Hannesson 1926, 14). This essay aims thus to retrace the rhetoric of Guðmundur Hannesson and his role in writing an Icelandic chapter of the history of concrete, from its early stage of unmodern trial-and-error to the definition of a modern Icelandic architecture.

A membrane ozonation contactor was built to investigate ozonation using tubular membranes and to inform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies. Non-porous tubular polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes of 1.0 – 3.2 mm inner diameter were tested at ozone gas concentrations of 110 – 200 g m−3 and liquid side velocities of 0.002 m s−1 – 0.226 m s−1. The dissolved ozone concentration could be adjusted to up to 14 mg O3 L−1 and increased with decreasing membrane diameter and liquid side velocity. Experimental mass transfer coefficients and molar fluxes of ozone were 1.1∙10−5 mol m−2 s−1 and 2.4∙10−6 m s−1, respectively, for the smallest membrane. CFD modelling could predict the final ozone concentrations but slightly overestimated mass transfer coefficients and molar fluxes of ozone. Model contaminant degradation experiments and UV absorption measurements of ozonated water samples in both ozone (O3) and peroxone (H2O2/O3) reaction systems in pure water, river water, wastewater effluent and solutions containing humic acid show that the contactor system can be used to generate information on the reactivity of ozone with different water matrices. Combining simple membrane contactors with CFD allows predicting ozonation performance under a variety of conditions leading to improved bubble-less ozone systems for water treatment.
