Los desafíos del derecho de familia en el siglo XXI (ensayo)
Authors: De Valdivia Cano Ramiro
Published: October 2020

El matrimonio y la familia son institutos naturales y fundamentales constantemente erosionados y amenazados de disolución debido a la dación de normas positivas que facilitan el divorcio por causales, en esencia, anticonstitucionales. En el presente ensayo se interpreta, a la luz del derecho natural, el derecho internacional y la doctrina católica, la problemática legal y social derivada de los constantes embates a la familia y el matrimonio por parte de la comunidad política. Asimismo, se hace un llamado a la búsqueda de instrumentos de protección de la dignidad y libertad del hombre, ante la prepotencia de las fuerzas sociales y las potenciales arbitrariedades del poder. Establece la necesidad de conferir un carácter institucional al matrimonio, fundándolo sobre un acto público, social y jurídicamente reconocido; y propugna que la responsabilidad en el cuidado y la promoción de la familia compete principalmente a toda la sociedad.

RT spin injection and optical polarization in nitride-based spin-LEDs are investigated. By employing CoFeB/MgO as the spin injector, the spin relaxation time and diffusion length in n-type GaN film are revealed to be 54.9 ps and 214.4 nm, respectively, through the three-terminal Hanle measurement. As the spin injector structure is applied to blue spin-LED, a maximal circular polarization of 3.3% is detected in electroluminescence, with the surface-emitting geometry and under a vertical magnetic field. UV spin-LED with n-Al0.05Ga0.95N transport layer is also fabricated, whose optical polarization is relatively smaller due to the larger spin–orbit coupling in Al atoms.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) is one of the most commonly used tools for epilepsy detection. In this paper we have presented two methods for the diagnosis of epilepsy using machine learning techniques. EEG waveforms have five different kinds of frequency bands. Out of which only two namely theta and gamma bands carry epileptic seizure information. Our model determines the statistical features like mean, variance, maximum, minimum, kurtosis, and skewness from the raw data set. This reduces the mathematical complexities and time consumption of the feature extraction method. It then uses a Logistic regression model and decision tree model to classify whether a person is epileptic or not. After the implementation of the machine learning models, parameters like accuracy, sensitivity, and recall have been found. The results for the same are analyzed in detail in this paper. Epileptic seizures cause severe damage to the brain which affects the health of a person. Our key objective from this paper is to help in the early prediction and detection of epilepsy so that preventive interventions can be provided and precautionary measures are taken to prevent the patient from suffering any severe damage

Every fabric can be categorized as either synthetic or natural fibre. Both natural and synthetic fibre have both advantages and disadvantages. Natural fibres are extracted from various plants and animals’ sources, while synthetic fibres are made from chemical compounds which requires enormous amount of non- renewable energy sources. Comparing with the flax fabric, glass fibre mats are made from silica (SiO2) sand, which melts at 1720°C/3128°F. Glass fibre mat requires burning enormous of fossil fuel for producing heat, whereas flax fabric is extracted from the bast or the skin of linseed plant that grow inside stalks of the plants. Flax fabric is hydrophilic in nature, which by the mercerization process is converted to hydrophobic in nature. In Mercerization process fabric is treated with a caustic soda (NaOH) solution in water to improve properties such as fibre strength, shrink- age resistance, lustre, and dye affinity. The composites manufacturing process known as Hand layup involves laying down individual reinforced fabric of glass and flax separately and then wet with isophthalic resin (mixed with 2% of charcoal) by measuring the quantity by weighing. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis, provides evaluating of glass and flax reinforced composites for surface fractures, flaws, contaminants or corrosion. In order to check the flame resistance fire retardant test is done. Furthermore, mechanical test result showed the comparative values of tensile, impact and flexural strength of both the composites.

An automobile engine produces a lot of heat and is subjected to thermal stresses. These high temperatures and thermal stresses generated might cause distortions in the engine components and also reduces the volumetric efficiency of the engine. It is important to remove this heat generated to ensure the ideal functionality of the engine. In order to dissipate this heat out of the engine through convection, extended surfaces(fins) are used as a medium, projected to the engine walls. In the present analysis, arbitrary shaped fins of same surface area are designed and heat transfer analysis is performed. Using the ANSYS Fluent software the analysis is done. The main intent of our study is to increase the heat transfer rate using the arbitrary shaped fins. The results obtained are compared with the regular shaped solid fins. Results show there's a significant increase in heat transfer through the arbitrary shaped fins. The fin with elliptical hole has greater heat transfer rate than other models of fins used in the analysis.

Many times, Armed Forces are deployed in bases in remote areas on the borders or Islands, which are far flung areas away from mainland. In many such cases, these areas do not have their power requirements through the main grid supply and entire power requirement of the deployment is supplied by diesel generators. These diesel generators have high environmental impact due to emission of greenhouse gases and are highly uneconomical as logistic sustenance of remote bases for supply of fuel is very challenging, Fossil fuel has to be supplied by vehicles, helicopters, boats or manually carried to hill tops. This increases the overall cost of deploying armed forces in remote areas. In recent years with the advancements in power electronic components and renewable energy, development in Microgrids (MGs) have shown a way to reduce dependency on main power grids. Hence, with the help of MGs, renewable energy can be used to fulfill power requirements of the armed forces deployed in remote places. In this work, a MG with capacity of 1MW has been designed keeping the special needs of armed forces as a major consideration. Solar power has been used as a primary renewable energy source in the proposed design. In order to mitigate the adverse effects of meteorological and extreme conditions on the solar power generation capacity, energy storage system in the form of batteries has also been provided. Batteries store power when excess power is generated from the photo voltaic (PV) system and discharge the power when power demand is higher than the PV generated power. Diesel generator sets have also been used to run critical loads, provide reliability and as backup to critical operations catering for outages, night time needs and un-expected meteorological conditions. MATLAB has been used to design and simulate the proposed MG. Working of the MG has also been demonstrated for varying meteorological and varying load conditions as well. The proposed design works satisfactory in all cases.

The area of agricultural land in Merauke Regency according to data from Bappeda (Agency for Regional Development) of Merauke Regency is for about 4.6 million hectares in 2015 and within the next 5 years will be cultivated as much as 1.2 hectares, especially for rice field and secondary crops plants [1].This study has purpose to estimate the value of rice production by using dry-milled rice with a land suitability approach using decision tree analysis and remote sensing methods in Merauke Regency. Remote sensing that has been corrected geometrically and radio-metrically is analyzed by using decision tree analysis to derive information on paddy/rice and non-rice field land use and which is reclassified by using field unit information based on field observations which will result in accuracy of use and producer. The rice field data is then processed to derive information on the rotation pattern of rice by using a decision tree analysis that is using input data on land characteristics which will produce total accuracy. Information on rice field area and rotation patterns are complemented by land productivity (tons / ha) sourced from BPS (Central Statistics Agency) data and interviews with land cultivators and local residents (farmers) were used to calculate the total rice production value on dry-milled rice The results of calculations by using this method are expected to have a fairly large surplus of calculations, both data from BPS (Central Bureau of Statistics) and data from interviews with land cultivators and local residents (farmers). Thus, these results are expected to show that the land suitability approach by using remote sensing methods for estimating rice production can be used to produce information on rice field area and rotation patterns with moderate to high accuracy.

This research reflects on the impacts of traffic factors, car acceleration, volume of traffic, road gradient and the resulting sum of air pollutants, with a significant impact on the emissions of the vehicles. The general and detailed urban plans are normally addressed to these factors. Such considerations usually determine the adverse effects of motor vehicles, and environmental hazards, such as air pollution and vibration, which affects highways and bridges. However, the effect of road transport and preparation on the ecosystem is described. The research focuses on climate aspects that can be identified and designed so that all generic proposals can include them. In this study, CO, NO2, TVOC’s and SO2 concentration at multiple sampling sites were screened regularly. The study revealed that air pollutant rates are highly correlated with traffic movement and prevailing gradients. The SO2, NO2, CO and TVOC’s concentrations were very much associated to significant road flow parameters such as traffic elevation, intensity and amount of transport.

Criatividade e imaginação: a pesquisa como transformação de mundo!
Authors: Camargo-Borges Celiane
Published: October 2020

O artigo discute a criatividade e imaginação na pesquisa, questionando a visão dicotomizada: qualitativa versus quantitativa ou mesmo acadêmica versus aplicada. Oferece-se uma visão mais pragmática e orientada ao contexto, fundamentada em uma epistemologia de pesquisa como prática social. Essa aproximação epistemológica é apresentada através de projetos de pesquisa envolvendo métodos da arte para fomentar a criatividade e imaginação. Conclui-se que esta aproximação transforma a pesquisa do conceito de descoberta para o de generatividade, focando-se em questões como “para quem este conhecimento é útil?” Para além de comprovação de hipóteses o foco se dá na produção do conhecimento local. Por fim, o papel do pesquisador também se transforma de “poder sobre” para “poder com” pelo atributo da inclusão dos participantes no processo e no contexto da pesquisa.

CORTISOL HORMONE VARIATIONS DUE TO SOUND STRESS: PLEASANT AND UNPLEASANT SOUND
Authors: Velayudhan Nisha , Andhare Varsha
Published: October 2020

The current study concentrates on the severity of noise pollution on public health. During this study cortisol hormone analysis was done for confirmation of stress in animals when exposed to high decibel noise like traffic noise and temple bell clapping. During this experiment, the two-Test sets of animals (T1) set exposed to traffic noise and (T2) set to temple bell clapping were used and a standard set of animal (C) who were not exposed to any loud noise but kept in the silent zone (below 55 dB). During the experiment, it became evident that loud noise did cause a surge of cortisol in the animal in the T1 group but no cortisol was present in the T2 group as well as in the Control group of animals. The presence of cortisol in an animal exposed to traffic noise implies stress in those animals and the absence of cortisol in the T2 group indicates the animals were not stressed even though they were exposed at high decibels noise. Also, the control group display absence of cortisol hormone in their blood. This concludes that sound stress is a result of exposure to pleasant or unpleasant sound irrespective of high decibel sound. This could be the reason why loud music is liked by people without causing any harm but is noise for others. It is a sheer matter of perspective of the individual which cause him/her to be stressed of loud noise.

This paper is centred on a binary classification problem in which it is desired to assign a new object with multivariate features to one of two distinct populations as based on historical sets of samples from two populations. A linear discriminant analysis framework has been proposed, called the minimised sum of deviations by proportion (MSDP) to model the binary classification problem. In the MSDP formulation, the sum of the proportion of exterior deviations is minimised subject to the group separation constraints, the normalisation constraint, the upper bound constraints on proportions of exterior deviations and the sign unrestriction vis-à-vis the non-negativity constraints. The two-phase method in linear programming is adopted as a solution technique to generate the discriminant function. The decision rule on group-membership prediction is constructed using the apparent error rate. The performance of the MSDP has been compared with some existing linear discriminant models using a previously published dataset on road casualties. The MSDP model was more promising and well suited for the imbalanced dataset on road casualties.
Between word-formation and syntax: Cross-linguistic perspectives on an ongoing debate
Authors: Schlücker Barbara
Published: October 2020

The relation between word-formation and syntax and whether they form distinct domains of grammar or not has been discussed controversially in different theoretical frameworks. The answer to this question is closely connected to the languages under discussion, among other things, because languages seem to differ considerably in this regard. The discussion in this paper focuses on nominal compounds and phrases. On the basis of a great variety of data from a total of 14 European languages, it is argued that the relation between compounds and phrases, and, more generally, between word formation and syntax, should be characterized not in terms of a categorical but instead in terms of a gradient distinction.

MicroRNA-548m Suppresses Cell Migration and Invasion by Targeting Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Breast Cancer Cells
Authors: WM Nor WM Farhan Syafiq B. , Chung Ivy , Said Nur Akmarina B. M.
Published: October 2020

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women and one of the leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide, in which the most severe form happens when it metastasizes to other regions of the body. Metastasis is responsible for most treatment failures in advanced breast cancer. Epithelialmesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a significant role in promoting metastatic processes in breast cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved endogenous short noncoding RNAs that play a role in regulating a broad range of biological processes, including cancer initiation and development, by functioning as tumor promoters or tumor suppressors. Expression of miR-548m has been found in various types of cancers, but the biological function and molecular mechanisms of miR-548m in cancers have not been fully studied. Here we demonstrated the role of miR-548m in modulating EMT in the breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7. Expression data for primary breast cancer obtained from NCBI GEO data sets showed that miR-548m expression was downregulated in breast cancer patients compared with healthy group. We hypothesize that miR-548m acts as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer. Overexpression of miR-548m in both cell lines increased E-cadherin expression and decreased the EMT-associated transcription factors SNAI1, SNAI2, ZEB1, and ZEB2, as well as MMP9 expression. Consequently, migration and invasion capabilities of both MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells were significantly inhibited in miR-548m-overexpressing cells. Analysis of 1,059 putative target genes of miR-548m revealed common pathways involving both tight junction and the mTOR signaling pathway, which has potential impacts on cell migration and invasion. Furthermore, this study identified aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) as a direct target of miR-548m in breast cancer cells. Taken together, our findings suggest a novel function of miR-548m in reversing the EMT of breast cancer by reducing their migratory and invasive potentials, at least in part via targeting AHR expression.
Creation of Unified Archives of Courts as a Way of Implementing the Latest Forms of Work with Archival Documents
Authors:   North-West Branch of Russian State University of Justice (St. Petersburg), Latysheva N. A.
Published: October 2020

The task of creating joint archives of courts is one of the most important promising directions for improving archival records in the courts of the Russian Federation. The most important status of this task is indicated by its adoption by an elected body of the judicial community – the Council of Judges of the Russian Federation. Implementation of the idea of concentrating archival documents in regional departmental centers of information storage on the performed proceedings has a high degree of relevance due to: 1) creation of the necessary conditions for storage of court documents, and, first of all, permanent storage terms; 2) ensuring unification in the management of archival records and proper control system; 3) wide introduction of information technologies in the work with archive storage units documenting the content of the proceedings. This will require the development of additional legal regulations on the basis of their position in the field of security judicial activities. Now interaction bases, as with vessels – sour ces of completing of the joint archival fund (fondoobrazovatel), and with authorized bodies of executive power in territorial subjects of the Russian Federation which by the legislation in these territorial units, are competent of questions of the organization of archiving and also with the relevant state (municipal) archives are not defined.

The arguments of the investigator about the guilt of the person prosecuted, as well as the arguments of the party of protection about innocence of the incriminated crime, or guilt to a less serious crime compared with the nominated investigator accusatory statement to the court do not have a predetermined force, and are nothing more than versions subject to inspection during the trial.
