A Revised Version of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scales for Labour and Delivery (MHLC-LD-R)
Authors: Konkolÿ Thege Barna , Sallay Viola , Rafael Beatrix , Martos Tamás
Published: June 2018

The aim of the present study was to develop and psychometrically investigate a revised version of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scales for Labour and Delivery (MHLC-LD). The rationale for this development was the need to assess labour and delivery specific health-related control beliefs regardless of the respondent-s reproductive stage or role in giving birth (e.g., woman in reproductive age but not pregnant, expectant mother, support person, spouse, health care provider). Methods: Altogether, 991 women (Mage=26.45 years, SD=5.42) completed the online survey, 767 (77.4%) of whom were pregnant. Beyond the newly developed, revised version of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scales for Labour and Delivery (MHLC-LD-R), the test battery included items measuring sociodemographic characteristics, self-rated health, general health-related control beliefs, attitudes toward certain birth-related issues, and level of fulfilment with regards to autonomy and competence needs. Results: Confirmatory factor analyses supported a three-factor solution representing internal-, chance-, and health care professional-related control beliefs. The internal consistency of each 4-item subscale was good. The analyses to test construct validity supported the convergent and divergent validity of the MHLC-LD-R dimensions. Conclusion: The MHLC-LD-R is an economic and psychometrically adequate tool to assess delivery-related control beliefs regardless of the individual-s actual stage in the reproductive life cycle or role in giving birth. Further research is needed using the instrument with partners and other relevant actors in the process of labour and delivery.
Rituais Fúnebres em memórias de velhos (Funeral rituals in old people memories) - DOI: 10.5752/P.2175-5841.2011v9n24p1112

Este artigo discute as mudanças e permanências que caracterizam o universo simbólico da morte, especialmente no tocante aos rituais fúnebres. O intuito principal é perceber como esses rituais foram se modificando significativamente na sociedade brasileira das últimas décadas do século XX, principalmente nos centros urbanos. Para tanto, investigamos memórias de idosos com sessenta e cinco anos ou mais, socializados no catolicismo e residentes em Curitiba/PR, colhidas por meio da história oral. Sobreviventes, os velhos pesquisados testemunharam muitas mortes e participaram de inúmeros rituais ao longo de sua existência e, por isso mesmo, podem lembra-los e transmiti-los com propriedade. Por meio de suas vozes, abre-se a possibilidade de entender uma época na qual a morte representava verdadeiro acontecimento social que promovia interação e reforçava os laços de solidariedade. Época que contrasta com a atual, caracterizada pela crescente dessocialização da morte e pela aceleração e simplificação das práticas rituais.Palavras-chave: Morte. Rituais fúnebres. Memórias de velhos. AbstractThis article aims to discuss the changes and continuities that characterize the symbolic universe of death, particularly with regard to funeral rites. This research also aims to comprehend how these rituals have been modified significantly in Brazilian society over the last decades of the twentieth century, especially in urban centers. In this sense, this paper investigates the memories of people older than 65 years of age, who were socialized in Catholicism and resides in Curitiba – Paraná –Brazil. These memories were collected through oral history. The surveyed people witnessed many deaths and participated in various rituals throughout its existence and, for this reason they can recall these rituals and transmit them properly. Through these elderly people, it is possible to understand a period in which death represented true event that promoted social interaction and strengthened the bonds of solidarity. The period analyzed in this research is opposed to the current time, which is characterized by the increase of the de-socialization of death as well as an acceleration and simplification of ritual practices.Keywords: Death.

O artigo apresenta apontamentos sobre “marketing de guerra santa”, o planejamento estratégico de gerenciamento de mercado religioso aplicado por algumas das igrejas cristãs da contemporaneidade. Vale-se de reflexões a partir de observação participante e de consulta a bibliografia especializada. Apontam-se algumas das formas com as quais  essas igrejas se midiatizam e se inserem num contexto de espetacularização e mercadorização próprios da sociedade do tempo presente e imediato. O mercado religioso no qual se inserem as agências que praticam este tipo de marketing passa por contextos de adequação ao capital simbólico e ao arcabouço cultural dos fiéis, sendo possível identificar o investimento ideológico e econômico na fabricação e veiculação de suas estratégias, discursos e mercadorias. O objetivo é o de perceber algumas das maneiras com as quais firmas religiosas (tomando como maior exemplo as igrejas neopentecostais) veiculam as mercadorias que produzem ou se apropriam, e os discursos que reverberam, relacionando-os a uma cultura de massa e a uma sociedade espetacular; fomentando a discussão sobre como tais igrejas e outros segmentos religiosos aplicam o marketing de guerra santa para melhor posicionarem sua marca no mercado e conquistarem mais fiéis.Palavras-chave: Marketing de guerra santa.

A religião à luz da fenomenologia hermenêutica heideggeriana (The religion in the light of Heidegger’s hermeneutic phenomenology)
Authors: Gonçalves Paulo Sérgio Lopes
Published: June 2018

Objetiva-se neste artigo apresentar a religião à luz da fenomenologia hermenêutica heideggeriana, cujo centro é a faktische Lebenserfahrung, elaborada por Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) nos primórdios de sua obra. Para atingir esse objetivo, serão tomadas três obras do filósofo alemão: Phänomenologie des Religiösen Lebens, de 1920-21; Phänomenologische Interpretationen zu Aristoteles, de 1921-22; e Ontologie. Hermeneutik der Faktizität, de 1923. Delas serão inferidos os conceitos de fenomenologia, de hermenêutica e de facticidade, que fundamentam outros conceitos importantes, tais como mundo, história, fenômeno e experiência. Em seguida, será apresentado o modo como, em três experiências cristãs, o filósofo desenvolve esses conceitos na análise da religião: as cartas paulinas aos Gálatas e aos Tessalonicenses, o livro X das Confissões de Agostinho e a mística medieval. Com isso, conclui-se que a religião é experiência religiosa, desenvolvida em meio à vida fática, com todas as suas tensões, inquietações e projeções. A religião é, então, experiência do divino no locus fático da vida em que a existência encontra seu próprio sentido.Palavras-chave: Fenomenologia. Hermenêutica. Faktische Lebenserfahrung. Abstract: This article aims to present religion in the light of Heidegger’s hermeneutic phenomenology, based on the faktische Lebenserfahrung developed by Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) in the early writings of its work. To achieve this goal, three works of the German philosopher will be taken into account: Phänomenologie des Religiösen Lebens from 1920-21, Phänomenologische Interpretationen zu Aristoteles de 1921-22 e Ontologie. Hermeutik der Faktizität de 1923. From these works, it will be inferred concepts of phenomenology, hermeneutics and facticity, that underlie other important concepts such as world, history, phenomenon and experience. Afterwards, the way how this philosopher develops these concepts in the analysis of the Christian religion will be presented through three Christian experiments: the Pauline letters to the Galatians and Thessalonians, the Book X of Augustine Confessions and the medieval mysticism. Finally, this article points out that religion is religious experience developed through factual life, with all its tension, anxieties and projections. Religion is then the experience of the divine in the factual locus of the life in which the existence finds its own meaning.Keywords: Phenomenology. Hermeneutics. Faktische Lebenserfahrung.
Superfluity and Precarity
Authors: Birmingham Peg ,   DePaul University
Published: June 2018

In this essay I take up Butler’s and Arendt’s respective accounts of the production of precarity and superfluity, asking whether they are proximate accounts, as they seem to be, or whether Butler’s turn to precarity misses the radical nature of Arendt’s genealogy of the production of superfluity, a genealogy that begins at the inauguration of modernity, attempts to find a “perfect superfluousness” in the death camps, and continues unabated in the contemporary global world. Reading Arendt against Butler, I argue that an ontology rooted in bodily precariousness cannot adequately address the production of superfluity which produces precarity as one of its effects. If precarity is an effect of superfluity, as I argue it is, then precarity’s remedy is found not in an appeal to the general ontological condition of bodily precariousness, but in a confrontation with the production of superfluity that threatens to eradicate all conditions of worldly and earthly existence, including the ontological condition of bodily vulnerability.
Relational Equality and the Expressive Dimension of State Action
Authors: Voigt Kristin ,   Department of Philosophy, Florida State University
Published: June 2018

Expressive theories of state action seek to identify and assess the ‘meaning’ implicit in state action, such as legislation and public policies. In expressive theories developed by relational egalitarians, state action must ‘express’ equal concern and respect for citizens. However, it is unclear how precisely we can determine and assess the meaning of what states do. This paper considers how an expressive theory could be developed, given the commitments of a relational account of equality, and how such a theory would relate to relational egalitarianism more broadly. I suggest that expressive considerations should be tied more closely than they are in the current literature to agents’ attitudes and to their intentions. I discuss a range of real-world policies that are problematic for what they can be taken to express.
Embodied Rhetoric: Plato on the Similarities Between Rhetoric and Medicine
Authors: Roth Adam David
Published: June 2018

By tracing the process through which the stark opposition Plato draws between rhetoric and medicine becomes re-expressed as a similarity between the two, this essay seeks a fuller interpretation of Plato’s attitude toward rhetoric, supplementing the work of scholars who claim that the only evidence Plato gives us about an ideal rhetoric is through its relationship to philosophy and dialectic. This paper shows instead that another way Plato captures the potential of rhetoric as a true art is precisely through its intricate relationship to medicine.
Republic 473c-480a: Character, Epistême and Doxa
Authors: Rutherford Abby
Published: June 2018

Most interpretations of the last stretch of RepublicV (473c-480a) attempt to set interpretive parameters by contextualizing the argument with the hope of shedding light on the possible intent behind it and its structure. However, the analysis of the argument is often reduced to a discussion of the differences between knowledge (epistême) and belief (dôxa) in general and their objects without much consideration for the possible implication of whom these states are attributed to. I will argue that the types of person classified in the preamble to the argument are integral to understanding ‘epistême’ and ‘dôxa’ as they are detailed here. Once character is taken into account, Socrates’ discussions of ‘epistême’ and ‘dôxa’ as ‘dunâmeis’ takes on a new importance, and the discussion of the “objects” of epistême and dôxa comes to be less about different kinds of possible objects as it is about different methodologies for understanding the world. The aim of the argument is not to show the dif-ference between epistême and dôxa, but rather to show why the philosopher ought to rule, and what about the philosopher makes her more fit to do so.
Aristotle’s Definition of Phýsis in Physics B 1
Authors: Vega González Camilo
Published: June 2018

Is in Physics B 1 where Aristotle establishes a precise definition of phýsis. In a first instance, Aristotle distinguishes phýsis from téchnē and his domain, in order to offer a satisfactory account of the physical beings. In this process, phýsis is defined as an immanent principle of movement and as matter and as form. We reconstruct Aristotle’s reasoning on that topic, emphasizing on the problems that such effort of definition implies.
Η φιλοσοφία ως τρόπος ζωής και ο Πλούταρχος περί του Αλεξάνδρου
Authors: Βουδούρη Σοφία
Published: June 2018

Ένα ιδιαίτερο γνώρισμα της ελληνικής φιλοσοφίας είναι η σύναψη του τρόπου ζωής του φιλοσοφούντος προς τα προβλήματα και τα ζητήματα που αφορούν άμεσα την κοινωνική και πολιτική ζωή των πόλεων εντός των οποίων αυτός ζη. Έτσι στο ερώτημα «Ποιό είναι το έργο της φιλοσοφίας;» η ελληνική φιλοσοφική παράδοση, κυρίως από το Σωκράτη και εξής, δέχεται σε γενικές γραμμές ότι το έργο της φιλοσοφίας είναι στενά συνυφασμένο με τη ζωή εντός της πολιτικής κοινωνίας. Ακόμη στους πρώιμους πλατωνικούς διαλόγους υποστηρίζεται η άποψη ότι ο τρόπος του βίου του φιλοσόφου έχει μεγάλη σημασία για την πολιτική κοινωνία και ότι μεταξύ των λεγομένων και των πραττομένων υπό του φιλοσοφούντος πρέπει να υπάρχει συμφωνία. Μάλιστα ο Σωκράτης προβάλλεται ως ο κατ’εξοχήν φιλόσοφος που έχει βίον σύμφωνον τοῖς λόγοις πρὸς τὰ ἔργα (Λαχ.118c6-c7). Όπως παρατηρούν βαθυστόχαστοι γνώστες και ερευνητές της ελληνικής φιλοσοφίας, όπως είναι ο John M. Cooper και ο P. Hadot, το συγκεκριμένο γνώρισμα της ελληνικής φιλοσοφίας είναι πολύ σημαντικό και προσδίδει σ’ αυτήν σπουδαίο κύρος, μολονότι σήμερα δεν φαίνεται να έχει ευρεία απήχηση. Όμως κατά την αρχαιότητα είχε μεγάλη ισχύ και σε τέτοιο βαθμό μάλιστα ώστε ορισμένοι όχι απλώς να ισχυρίζονται ότι οι φιλόσοφοι πρέπει να ζουν βίο σύμφωνο προς τις θεμελιώδεις πίστεις και δοξασίες τους (Σωκράτης, Διογένης, Επίκουρος, Αντισθένης, κ.ά.) αλλά και ότι πρέπει να θεωρούνται ως φιλόσοφοι ακόμη και εκείνοι που δεν διατύπωσαν κάποια θεωρία (ή δεν έγραψαν κάποιο έργο), αλλά έζησαν και έπραξαν έργα τέτοια που καθιστούν αυτούς φιλοσόφους. Την άποψη αυτή υποστηρίζει ο εκ Χαιρωνείας φιλόσοφος Πλούταρχος, ο οποίος δέχεται ότι ο Αλέξανδρος Φιλίππου ο Μακεδών (δηλαδή o Μέγας Αλέξανδρος) είναι όντως φιλόσοφος.

Ο Φουκώ για την «επιμέλεια εαυτού» στην ελληνορωμαϊκή αρχαιότητα
Authors: Μαστοράκος Νικόλαος
Published: June 2018

Ο Μισέλ Φουκώ, συζητώντας το θέμα της «επιμέλειας εαυτού» στον τρίτο τόμο της Ιστορίας της σεξουαλικότητας, στρέφεται σε μιαν ανάλυση της σχέσης μεταξύ της ηδονής και των ηθικών ζητημάτων, όπως εμφανίζεται μέσα στον χώρο του ελληνορωμαϊκού πολιτισμού. Αυτή ορίζεται από τρία αλληλένδετα ζητήματα: από το συσχετισμό της απόλαυσης και της αισθητικής της ύπαρξης, από τη μετάβαση από την πολιτική τέχνη του βίου στην προσωπική τέχνη του εαυτού, και τέλος από τη συγκρότηση του υποκειμένου. Ο Φουκώ διαπιστώνει ότι κάθε ηθική πράξη προϋποθέτει μιαν ορισμένη «πρακτική του εαυτού μας», η άσκηση της οποίας απέβλεπε στο «γνώθι σαυτόν» και προσέφερε στο άτομο τη δυνατότητα της υπέρβασης του εαυτού του και του ελέγχου των παθών και των επιθυμιών του. Όμως αυτή ήταν κυρίως μια μορφή άσκησης της ελευθερίας κατά το δέον. Η ηθική, η οποία απέρρεε από αυτήν την πρακτική, επέτρεπε την συγκρότηση του υποκειμένου και είχε παραδειγματική αξία, η οποία διαχεόταν στα πεδία της κοινωνίας και της πολιτικής. Κατ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο η επιμέλεια του εαυτού καθίστατο και μέριμνα για τους άλλους.

Resumen: Esta investigación tiene como objetivo establecer en qué grado la intervención educativa mediante la actividad físico-deportiva, ha repercutido en la mejora de determinadas conductas de un grupo de alumnos de Educación Secundaria en situación de Riesgo de Exclusión Social. Para ello, se han llevado a cabo varias sesiones de deportes de combate, con las que se han demostrado que estos deportes promueven una serie de valores, entre los que están la cooperación y cohesión de grupo que mejoran la conducta de quien los practican. El diseño metodológico utilizado ha sido un estudio de caso de tipo descriptivo y cualitativo y el instrumento utilizado ha sido el Programa de Responsabilidad Personal y Social de Hellison (1995) mediante la entrevista y la observación directa. La aplicación de este programa ha resultado en una mejora de la conducta de los adolescentes tanto en el entorno escolar y en las actividades extraescolares como en fuera del centro.Abstract:This research aims to establish the extent to which the Personal and Social Responsibility Program of Hellison through physical activity has impacted on the improvement of certain behaviors of a group of high school students in a situation of Social Exclusion Risk. To this end, several combat sports sessions have been carried out, which have shown that these sports promote a series of values among which are cooperation and group cohesion that improve the behavior of those who practice them. The methodological design used has been a descriptive and qualitative case study and the instrument used has been the Personal and Social Responsibility Program of Hellison (1995) through interview and direct observation. The application of this program has resulted in an improvement in the behavior of adolescents both in the school environment and in out-of-school activities as well as outside the center.

Resumen: El propósito de este artículo es arrojar luz sobre el origen, evolución y presente de la Regata Sevilla-Betis, la prueba deportiva más antigua que se sigue desarrollando en Sevilla y la regata de remo de larga distancia más importante de toda España. Para la revisión histórica se ha utilizado un método cualitativo mixto (interactivo y no interactivo). Para conocer el presente de la Regata se ha estimado realizar un análisis del impacto económico, social y deportivo de la prueba. Para el impacto económico se ha realizado un balance de costes/beneficios, mientras que para conocer los impactos social y deportivo se procedió a pasar una encuesta (Porras, et al., 2010) tanto a los asistentes como a personas que viven en Sevilla. Los resultados más destacados son que la Regata en sus inicios sufrió altibajos e incluso llegó a desaparecer durante varios años, sin embargo, volvió a resurgir y se presenta actualmente con casi sesenta años de vida, y cincuenta ediciones completadas, y con una valoración deportiva por parte de la ciudad de un 71%, una valoración social del 63% y una importancia económica del 50% por lo que la valoración de la Regata Sevilla-Betis como evento deportivo es del 57%Abstract: The purpose of this article is to shed light on the origin, evolution and present of the Seville-Betis Regatta, the oldest sporting event that is still being developed in Seville and the most important long-distance rowing regatta in Spain. For the historical review, a mixed qualitative method (interactive and non-interactive) has been used. In order to know the present of the Regatta, an analysis of the economic, social and sporting impact of the race was estimated. For the economic impact, a balance of costs / benefits was made, while to know the social and sporting impacts, a survey was carried out (Porras, et al., 2010) both to the attendees and to people living in Seville. The most outstanding results are that the Regatta in its beginnings suffered ups and downs and even disappeared for several years, however, it resurfaced again and is currently presented with almost sixty years of life, and fifty editions completed, and with a sports valuation by part of the city of 71%, a social valuation of 63% and an economic importance of 50%, so the valuation of the Sevilla-Betis Regatta as a sporting event is 57%.

Authors: Llopis-Goig Ramon
Published: June 2018

Resumen: Este artículo presenta los principales hallazgos empíricos de un estudio sobre las prácticas e identificaciones de carácter transnacional que se han desarrollado en el espacio social del fútbol europeo durante las últimas décadas como consecuencia de los procesos de globalización. El objetivo del estudio ha consistido en identificar y cuantificar la emergencia de patrones de consumo e identificación que trascienden las fronteras del Estado-nación al que aquellos estuvieron confinados desde el surgimiento y desarrollo de este deporte. El sustento empírico del trabajo procede de una encuesta realizada dentro del proyecto de investigación Football Research in an Enlarged Europe (FREE), que fue financiado por el 7º Programa Marco de la Unión Europea. Los resultados apuntan a la existencia de una reconfiguración de los nexos de articulación entre el fútbol y la sociedad merced al surgimiento de prácticas e identificaciones de carácter transnacional que conviven con otras de obediencia nacional.Abstract: This article presents the main empirical findings of a study on transnational practices and identifications that have developed at the social space of European football over the last decades as a consequence of the globalization processes. The aim of the study has been to identify and quantify the emergence of consumption and identification patterns that go beyond the Nation-state borders to which they were confined from the appearance and initial development of this sport. The empirical support for this work comes from a survey carried out within a European Union funded research project (7th Framework Programme) entitled Football Research in an Enlarged Europe (FREE). The results of the study indicate a reconfiguration of the connections between football and society in relation with the development of transnational practices and identifications living with others of national scope.
Fascinatin’ Rhythm – and Pauses in Translators’ Cognitive Processes
Authors: Muñoz Martín Ricardo , Martín de Leon Celia
Published: June 2018

The Monitor Model fosters a view of translating where two mind modes stand out and alternate when trying to render originals word-by-word by default: shallow, uneventful processing vs problem solving. Research may have been biased towards problem solving, often operationalized with a pause of, or above, 3 seconds. This project analyzed 16 translation log files by four informants from four originals. A baseline minimal pause of 200 ms was instrumental to calculate two individual thresholds for each log file: (a) A low one – 1.5 times the median pause within words – and (b) a high one – 3 times the median pause between words. Pauses were then characterized as short (between 200 ms and the lower threshold), mid, and long (above the higher threshold, chunking the recorded activities in the translation task into task segments), and assumed to respond to different causes. Weak correlations between short, mid and long pauses were found, hinting at possible different cognitive processes. Inferred processes did not fall neatly into categories depending on the length of possibly associated pauses. Mid pauses occurred more often than long pauses between sentences and paragraphs, and they also more often flanked information searches and even problem-solving instances. Chains of proximal mid pauses marked cases of potential hesitations. Task segments tended to happen within 4–8 minute cycles, nested in a possible initial phase for contextualization, followed by long periods of sustained attention. We found no evidence for problem-solving thresholds, and no trace of behavior supporting the Monitor Model.
Forms of Hybridity in Travel Blogs
Authors: Anesa Patrizia
Published: June 2018

The technological revolution has changed considerably not only the way people travel and but also how they narrate their experiences. In this respect, the analysis of travel blogs can offer insights into the discursive and communicative practices which characterize this hybrid genre. This study is based on the investigation of a corpus of highly visited travel blogs and aims to observe their hybridity from a multitude of perspectives. More specifically, hybridity is seen in terms of genre, (a)synchronicity, collaboration, modes of communication and level of multimodality, style, orientation, levels of subjectivity and pragmatic functions. From a lexical perspective, specific attention is devoted to evaluative adjectives. In particular, the use of adjectives belonging to conceptual classes such as ‘assessment’ or ‘deviance’ is a widespread tool to express the blogger’s subjectivity and may assume different communicative and pragmatic functions.
Problem-based Learning in Computer-assisted Translation Pedagogy
Authors: Mellinger Christopher D.
Published: June 2018

This article discusses problem-based learning (PBL) and its potential application to computer-assisted translation (CAT) pedagogy. Problem-based learning is situated in the CAT classroom as a final course component in which students challenge their previously-acquired knowledge and skill sets to solve unique, ill-defined problems that mirror those encountered in the language industry. This constructivist approach to education is designed to empower students to be self-directed, collaborative learners and to foster critical thinking and reflection. Moreover, problem-based learning is a means to encourage professional behavior and to develop skills beyond the mere use of translation technologies. This article explores the potential advantages and disadvantages of this educational approach as documented in related professional fields. In addition, the article addresses the ways in which problems are designed and implemented in the translation classroom, with a discussion of how they can and should be aligned with course learning objectives. The article concludes with a discussion of ways students’ work ought to be assessed to enhance gains often seen in PBL environments.
Measuring Out Life in Coffee Spoons: Canadian Literary Breakfasts1
Authors: Moyer Alexia , Cooke Nathalie
Published: June 2018

Two bodies of secondary literature — literary criticism about the appeal of imagined food and food studies analyses of breakfast — identify the potential of this morning meal to establish an aspirational standard. For literary critics, this aspirational standard involves the norms and conventions of the narrative world being staged, which will inevitably come under pressure as the narrative develops. For food writers, this aspirational standard involves nutritional value.

Drawing from specific examples in Canadian literature, we argue that it is precisely this aspect of breakfast — as benchmark or standard of measurement — that makes it such a fruitful meal in the writer's narrative toolbox. Literary breakfasts either embody tension and conflict, or set up and therefore contain the germs of tension and conflict that will drive the plot.
La place des municipalités dans la réglementation fédérale du transport des hydrocarbures : un rôle à solidifier
Authors: Nadeau Rachel
Published: June 2018

Les enjeux reliés au transport interprovincial des hydrocarbures font l’objet de nombreux débats, autant par rapport au transport par pipeline qu’au transport ferroviaire. La limitation des possibilités d’intervention des municipalités, aussi bien lors du processus d’élaboration et d’approbation de ces projets que lors de la planification des mesures d’urgence, est encore plus visible depuis la tragédie de Lac-Mégantic. Malgré les changements législatifs et réglementaires instaurés au cours des dernières années, parfois en raison de l’influence des organisations municipales, nous concluons qu’il demeure encore de nombreuses lacunes à combler avant que les préoccupations des municipalités en matière de sécurité et de protection de l’environnement soient adéquatement prises en compte.

U posljednjih nekoliko decenija potrebe dječije populacije u zdravstvenom sistemu su se značajno promjenile.Veliki bolnički odjeli koji su bili maksimalno popunjeni bolesnom djecom (mahom zbog gastroenteritisa i pneumonija)zamijenile su manje bolničke jedinice ispunjenje djecom koje boluju od hroničnih i teških bolesti a broj hospitalizovane djeceod zaraznih i infektivnih bolesti se značajno smanjio. Svjedoci smo stvaranja visoko specijaliziranih jedinica za neonatalnoliječenje i njegu novorodjenčadi koja samo prije desetak godina ne bi preživjela; onkološke jedinice su se transformisaleu uspješne poligone za borbu i izlječenje dječijeg kancera; specijalistički genetski timovi koji u eksploziji novih saznanjaiz ovog područja dijagnostikuju mnoge rijetke bolesti i sindrome a narastajuća patologija iz oblasti mentalnih bolesti koddjece traži sve veće kapacitete u oblasti dječije psihologioje i psihijatrije. I ako se patologija značajno promijenila dječijapopulacija ima ogromne zahtjeve u zdravstvenom sistemu koja se odnose na prevenciju sistematski i kontinuirani nadzornad zdravljem i razvojem djeteta kroz cijelo djetinjstvo, od rođenja pa do 18 godina života. Uspjeh zdravstvenog sistemana ovom polju koji se u našim zemljama desio, posebno u periodu zadnjih decenija 20 vijeka doprinjeo je značajno boljemzdravlju dječije populacije. Ipak, sa uvođenjem porodične medicine i davanjem nadležnosti ljekarima porodične medicine,kao i ljekarima opšte prakse da prate i liječe djecu u periodu od 6-18 godina situacija u pogledu prevencije i rane detekcijebolesti i odstupanja od normalnog rasta i razvoja se značajno pogoršala u Republici Srpskoj.
OSNOVA PREVENCIJE GOJAZNOSTI U DEČJEM DOBU
Authors: Radlović Nedeljko
Published: June 2018

Gojaznost, kako kod odraslih tako i dece, predstavlja veoma ozbiljan i kontinuirano rastući problem. Ovopatološko stanje, ranije uglavnom prisutno u ekonomski rezvijenim zemljama, zadnjih godina postaje sve učestalije i uzemljama u razvoju. Epidemiološka istraživanja pokazuju da je oko 10% dece školskog uzrasta u svetu preuhranjeno odčega je jedna četvrtina gojazna. Podrazumeva se da sa ekspanzijom gojaznosti raste i prevalencija njene težine, kao i broji ozbiljnost komplikacija koje ona nosi. Dodatno treba istaći da približno 60-85% gojazne dece školskog uzrasta ostajegojazno u adultnoj dobi, kao i to da gojaznost u detinjstvu, bez obzira na njeno dalje odsustvo, bitno doprinosi različitimzdravstvenim problemima u kasnijem životu.

PRESSURE OPTIMISED VISCOELASTIC VIBRATION AND IMPACT INSULATION
Authors: Bek Marko
Published: June 2018

Within this contribution we present recently published findings [1] on the new way of utilizing polymeric materials for vibration damping. We present and demonstrate patented dissipative bulk and granular systems technology [2], based on which we have developed granular damping elements (GDE). The damping elements consist of granular viscoelastic material encapsulated and pressurized within a woven container made of basalt, carbon, and/or glass fibres. The hydrostatic pressure changes material properties and consequently the performance of the vibration isolation. Within this contribution, properties of three TPU materials in solid state are investigated, which after granulation are potential candidates for producing new GDE damping elements. We have demonstrated that for the case of TPU materials the stiffness and energy absorption capability of insulation may be increased between 10 to 100 times.
STUDY ON SEISMIC REINFORCEMENT MEASURES AND SCHEMES OF IRREGULAR FRAME STRUCTURES
Authors: Ziyu Feng
Published: June 2018

The SAP2000 finite element analysis software was applied to model the original frame and carry out the elasto-plastic time-history analysis method, with an existing irregular plane framework in Tianjin as the object of the study. Buckling-Restrained Brace (BRB) damping and anti-torsional reinforcement scheme was proposed based on the analysis results and the characteristics of the project. The results indicate that compared with the original frame, the period ratio of BRB frame was reduced by 26%; torsional displacement ratio was decreased by 15%; decreasing of inter-story displacement angle could reach 31%, and the maximum displacement angle of the top layer can be controlled within the scope of the code. BRB not only increases the anti-lateral stiffness of the structure, but also improves the seismic performance of the structure, which is an effective approach to control torsional effect of irregular structures.
ULTIMATE STRENGTH OF COMPRESSED SLABS AND BOX GIRDERS
Authors: Milašinović Dragan
Published: June 2018

A theoretical investigation into the effectiveness of a plate thickness against the ultimate strength of a compressed slabs and box girders is carried out. Series of the buckling analyses, the elastic, the viscoplastic and the ultimate strength are performed by the rheological-dynamical inelastic theory and the finite strip method on a slabs and box girders under thrust. In the analytical method, rheological-dynamical analogy (RDA) is introduced to express the critical stresses of slabs and box girders in the range of viscoplastic strains and strain hardening. Applying the finite strip method (FSM) as a semi-analytical method, the fundamental equilibrium equations are derived based on the principle of minimum total potential energy. Apart from the quantitative research the qualitative research is presented to demonstrate the capabilities of the present theory.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS, LESS STRAIGHT FORWARD THEN PRESUMED
Authors: Hens Hugo
Published: June 2018

Since the 1990s, the successive EU directives and related national or regional legislations require new construction and retrofits to be as much as possible energy-efficient. Several measures that should stepwise minimize the primary energy use for heating and cooling have become mandated as requirement. However, in reality, related predicted savings are not seen in practice. Two effects are responsible for that. The first one refers to dweller habits, which are more energy-conserving than the calculation tools presume. In fact, while in non-energy-efficient ones, habits on average result in up to a 50% lower end energy use for heating than predicted. That percentage drops to zero or it even turns negative in extremely energy-efficient residences. The second effect refers to problems with low-voltage distribution grids not designed to transport the peaks in electricity whensunny in summer. Through that, a part of converters has to be uncoupled now and then, which means less renewable electricity. This is illustrated by examples that in theory should be net-zero buildings due to the measures applied and the presence of enough photovoltaic cells (PV) on each roof. We can conclude that mandating extreme energy efficiency far beyond the present total optimum value for residential buildings looks questionable as a policy. However, despite that, governments and administrations still seem to require even more extreme measurements regarding energy efficiency.
COMPARISON OF THREE CALCULATION METHODS OF ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATES IN SLOVENIA
Authors: Kidess Wadie
Published: June 2018

In order to get the authorization for issuing energy performance certificates in Slovenia, the expert candidate has to attend the prescribed course and pass the exam. The simplified method for heat losses calculation that is taught at this course neglects the thermal bridges, raising concerns whether the calculation results are reliable. In this paper we have compared three methods for calculation of thermal losses for a “typical” family house. The first is the above mentioned simplified calculation using a correctional factor; the second takes into account the thermal bridges, using linear thermal transmittances obtained by numerical calculation, and the third takes into account the thermal bridges, using default values for linear thermal transmittances. Noting that the second method returns the most exact values, we have found that the first method results are too large, yet still smaller than the third method results.
ANALYSIS OF LINEAR THERMAL TRANSMITTANCE OF A SIMPLE BALCONY THERMAL BRIDGE
Authors: Prapotnik Brdnik Anita
Published: June 2018

The linear thermal transmittance of a simple balcony thermal bridge with a uniformbalcony slab and wall was analysed. In a five-parameter model (thickness, length andthermal conductivity of a balcony slab; thickness and thermal conductivity of an adjacentwall), it was found that the length of the balcony slab does not influence the thermaltransmittance, while its dependence on the other two slab parameters is linear. Theinfluence of wall parameters on the linear transmittance proved to be more complicated,but appropriate expressions were successfully found. The study presents the first step inthe search of a semi-empirical formula that can successfully describe the lineartransmittance of a balcony thermal bridge with a homogeneous multi- layer wall.

The paper presents the possibility of using the software R for the automatization of the procedure for geodetic 2D network adjustment with the least squares method (classical geodetic datum and min. trace of the cofactor matrix). Software libraries have also been processed, which expand the possibilities for creating a suitable graphical user interface in R. The R packages enables fast statistical processing of large amounts of data and therefore has a growing application in many scientific fields. Automatization of the geodetic network adjustment is encompassed in many commercial software solutions for data processing of the geodetic measurements, which makes application of open-source solutions have special significance for the scientific and professional public.
GEODETIC DETERMINATION OF VERTICAL DISPLACEMENT OF BUILDINGS DURING CONSTRUCTION
Authors: Vasiljević Slavko
Published: June 2018

The methodology of planning and performing geodetic activities in determining vertical displacement of engineering objects or specific structural elements and units is presented in this paper. Data from observation of a building for students' accomodation in Banja Luka, collected during its construction, are presented. The geodetic control of geometry and deformation analysis of the performed building construction are primary tasks of the engineering geodesy in the construction of objects. Vertical displacement and deviations of objects are caused by numerous factors. The geodetic tehnical documentation, developed during implementation of these tasks, represents a valuable basis for the development of observation projects during exploitation of objects and for forming an engineering building information system.

Authors: Klein Tillmann
Published: June 2018

Accelerating the rate and depth of energy renovations in buildings is one of the biggestchallenges currently facing the construction industry. The increasing range and complexityof building technologies make product selection challenging. At the same time, we needto embrace new circular building strategies in which material waste is eliminated. In anongoing process materials and components are reused or remanufactured and canconstantly be replaced with new and more efficient ones. The paper describes the firstpilot project for a facade leasing at the Delft Technical University that explores ways ofimplementing circular construction methods. It acts as collaboration catalyst to furtherdevelop the complex system of contracts, financing structures, and operational servicesrequired to turn the facade leasing project into a feasible proposition. First generalconclusions are drawn concerning supply, demand side, financial and legal aspects.
INTEGRATED URBAN PLANNING OF BANJALUKA -POSSIBILITIES AND CHALENGES OF NEW URBAN PLAN
Authors: Milojević Brankica
Published: June 2018

Integrated planning is a modern approach to urban planning aiming at their sustainable and resilient development. It is theoretically based on the need to adapt the planning system of complex processes in the built environment, with comprehensive and integrated analysis, using appropriate planning methodology. Prerequisites for the implementation of integrated planning are institutional, legislative and financial support, the policy for strategic urban development at the national and local level, participation and appropriate education of all stakeholders in the planning process, which often can not be achieved, especially in countries in transition. This paper will address the opportunities and challenges of applying integrated planning in preparation and development of a new urban plan for Banja Luka, which can serve as a model for improving the methodology of integrated planning and planning practices of other cities in The Republic of Srpska.
