Authors: Clemente Eliane De Paula , Oliveira Fábio Soares , Machado Mariana Resende , Schaefer Carlos Ernesto  Gonçalves Reynaud
Published: February 2019

Este estudo caracterizou a matéria orgânica dos solos (MOS) da Ilha da Trindade a partir das suas frações húmicas e organização micromorfológica, buscando reconhecer a influência de aspectos ambientais na distribuição destas frações. Foram analisados oito perfis de solos, representativos das distintas classes existentes na Ilha (Neossolos, Cambissolos e Organossolos), associados a três materiais de origem (rochas alcalinas, básicas e sedimentos carbonáticos) e em distintas posições topográficas. O fracionamento das substâncias húmicas e a relação C/N foram analisados em todos os horizontes. Um horizonte superficial de cada classe foi selecionado para a caracterização micromorfológica em seções delgadas. A humina constituí a fração predominante na composição da MOS dos solos de Trindade. As maiores concentrações ocorrem nos solos situados das porções mais altas, úmidas, e sob vegetação de maior porte. A acumulação majoritária da fração humina se deve à limitada ou baixa transformação da MOS, por sua vez associada a baixa atividade da macro e mesofauna. Trata-se de uma humina herdada diretamente do material pouco transformado. Outros aspectos como textura, cobertura vegetal, pedoclima explicam o maior ou menor acumulo, e contribuem para explicar as diferenças entre os perfis. A fração humina predominantes destaca a baixa mobilidade da MOS nos horizontes superficiais. Contudo, perfis das áreas altas apresentaram indicativos de podzolização incipiente, concentrando AF e Ah em profundidade. O estudo contribui com uma primeira aproximação na caracterização da MOS de Trindade, importante para o entendimento da dinâmica de carbono no solo e recuperação ambiental da Ilha.

Published: February 2019

Houve diversas modificações na superfície terrestre devido à apropriação do homem na natureza como maneira de desenvolvimento social e econômico, predispondo as cidades a maior risco de ocorrência de incêndios e queimadas. O trabalho teve como intuito elaborar elaborar uma proposta de zoneamento de risco a incêndio e queimadas, baseado em características físicas, antrópicas e dados de focos de incêndio da cidade de Sorocaba-SP, utilizando geoprocessamento em ambiente SIG. Foi realizado o mapeamento do uso do solo e cobertura vegetal utilizando imagem SPOT-5 e RapidEye por meio da classificação supervisionada e interpretação visual. Foram determinados pesos de importância para a declividade, hidrografia e malha viária segundo a risco para incêndio e queimadas. O zoneamento foi obtido pela média ponderada dos mapas temáticos dos parâmetros. Realizou-se o levantamento dos focos de incêndio e queimadas e procedeu-se a sua relação com o zoneamento de risco produzido. Um total de 93% da cidade é classificada com risco alto a extremo, revelando a predisposição da cidade para a ocorrência de incêndios e queimadas de origem natural ou antrópica. 74 focos de incêndio ocorreram entre 2017 e 2018, sendo enquadradas nas zonas de risco muito alto (39%), alto (35,36%) e extremo (19,5%).  A proposta de zoneamento é condizente com a realidade natural e socioeconômica da cidade, sendo um caminho para o monitoramento ambiental da cidade.
Sobre as Influências na Formação do Geógrafo Físico a partir das Contribuições da Geografia de Matriz Anglo-Saxã
Authors: Correa Antonio Carlos de Barros , Monteiro Kleython De Araujo
Published: February 2019

A geografia física brasileira, sobretudo após a difusão da linguagem matematizada e estatística conquanto, seja sobre uma base teórica sistêmica ou de busca direta de relações causais, mediada pelo crescente aporte da modelagem em bases digitais, efetuou de forma deliberada ou não uma aproximação à geografia física de matriz anglo-saxã, de tradição fortemente empiricista. O marco dessa vertente foi a emergência da diatribe entre a valoração do tempo e os demais elementos envolvidos na explicação espacial. Sua suplantação, em prol do papel dos processos superficiais e suas magnitudes de ocorrência, a partir da segunda metade do século XX, esteve atrelada a importantes mudanças na história social e suas reverberações sobre a ciência e seus objetivos finais. Contemporaneamente, uma retomada da variável tempo é seguida pela modulação dessa à necessidades temáticas dos estudos geográficos, e não mais como uma categoria à priori. A geografia física de matriz anglo-saxã, altamente dependente da técnica, reflete atualmente, como é o caso de outras ciências históricas de interface experimental, a dependência do método científico e da emergência de situações problemas

Despite optimal current therapies, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause for death worldwide. Importantly, advances in peptide engineering have accelerated the development of innovative therapeutics for diverse human disease states. Additionally, the advancement of bispecific therapeutics targeting >1 signaling pathway represents a highly innovative strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. We, therefore, engineered a novel, designer peptide, which simultaneously targets the pGC-A (particulate guanylyl cyclase A) receptor and the MasR (Mas receptor), potentially representing an attractive cardiorenoprotective therapeutic for cardiovascular disease. We engineered a novel, bispecific receptor activator, NPA7, that represents the fusion of a 22-amino acid sequence of BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide; an endogenous ligand of pGC-A) with Ang 1–7 (angiotensin 1–7)—the 7-amino acid endogenous activator of MasR. We assessed NPA7’s dual receptor activating actions in vitro (second messenger production and receptor interaction). Further, we performed an intravenous peptide infusion comparison study in normal canines to study its biological actions in vivo, including in the presence of an MasR antagonist. Our in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate the successful synthesis of NPA7 as a bispecific receptor activator targeting pGC-A and MasR. In normal canines, NPA7 possesses enhanced natriuretic, diuretic, systemic, and renal vasorelaxing and cardiac unloading properties. Importantly, NPA7’s actions are superior to that of the individual native pGC-A or MasR ligands. These studies advance NPA7 as a novel, bispecific designer peptide with potential cardiorenal therapeutic benefit for the treatment of cardiovascular disease, such as hypertension and heart failure.
Brazilian Black Theatre: A Political Theatre Against Racism
Authors: Douxami Christine
Published: February 2019

Black Brazilian theatre constitutes a political and artistic response to the racial discrimination characteristic of Brazilian society. As early as 1944, young members of the recently created black political movement saw theatre as a potential weapon to transform Brazilian society and created the Teatro Experimental do Negro (Black Experimental Theatre). This activist theatre continues to this day to pave the way for other black theatre companies.
Peepshow, Death Camp, Art Gallery: The Spaces of Pasolini’s Salò and Mauri’s Intellettuale
Authors: Solovieva Olga V.
Published: February 2019

Fabio Mauri’s performance Intellettuale, set in the context of the opening of Leone Pancaldi’s new building for the Museum of Modern Art in Bologna, summed up a life-long collaboration and controversy between Pier Paolo Pasolini and Mauri about the fate of Western art after WWII. In the context of Pancaldi’s building, Intellettuale throws into relief the cultural and ideological project of Pasolini’s filmmaking and its relation to the body art of the 1960s–’70s.

Lady Precious Stream is the most globally successful Chinese play in history. A practice-as-research project investigated how Chinese drama aesthetics might have been used in the original production. This revealed that gaps in archival material open up a space where the subjective nature of interpretation can be interrogated.
Two new centric diatoms (Bacillariophyta) from the sub-Antarctic region
Authors: VAN DE VIJVER BART , HOUK VÁCLAV
Published: February 2019

During a survey of the limno-terrestrial diatom flora of the sub-Antarctic region, two unknown melosiroid diatom taxa were observed in several shaded, damp cave (moss and soil) samples from Heard Island and Ile de la Possession, the main island of the Crozet Archipelago. Comparison with already known species from the genus Melosira and the recently described genera Arcanodiscus, Angusticopula and Ferocia, resulted in the description of both new taxa based on detailed light and scanning electron microscopy. A first species was described as Ferocia subantarctica sp. nov. and can be distinguished based on its numerous, narrow girdle bands, relatively weakly domed valves, a limited number of well-developed spines and a rather large, hyaline central area. The second species, Arcanodiscus desmetianus Van de Vijver sp. nov., can be recognized based on its solitary frustules, a series of parallel ridges surrounding the mantle and a hyaline central area that is only less than 50% of the total valve diameter. Both taxa are morphologically and ecologically characterized and compared with all known melosiroid taxa worldwide.

Published: February 2019

Sperchon fuxiensis Zhang, 2017 was published as a new species based on females alone. Two males of Sperchon were found in the same locality during our recent collection. The males resemble S. fuxiensis female in the integument pattern, excretory pore and the palps shape, but the chitinous plates of both dorsum and venter differ greatly. The males were paired with the female of S. fuxiensis using DNA barcoding, revealing unusual sexual dimorphism in the species. Descriptions and illustrations of the male of S. fuxiensis are given in the present study. Species identification based on the full-length DNA barcoding (658bp) of COI in water mites is also discussed.
Filling Voice Promotion Gaps in Healthcare through a Comparative Analysis of Error Reporting and Learning Systems and Open Communication and Disclosure Policies in the United States and Germany
Authors: Duffourc Mindy Nunez
Published: February 2019

Voice in healthcare is crucial because of its ability to improve organizational performance and prevent medical errors. This paper contends that a comparative analysis of voice promotion in the American and German healthcare industries can strengthen a culture of safety in both countries. It provides a brief introduction to the concept of voice in healthcare, including its impact on safety culture, barriers to voice, and the dual influences of confidentiality and transparency on voice promotion policies. It then examines the theoretical basis, practical workings, and legal aspects of voluntary error reporting and error disclosure as avenues for exercising voice in the U.S. and Germany. Finally, it identifies transferable practices that can remedy shortcomings in each country's voice promotion policy.
Implementing internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy for patients with cardiovascular disease and psychological distress: a scoping review
Authors: Neher Margit , Nygårdh Annette , Nilsen Per , Broström Anders , Johansson Peter
Published: February 2019

Background:

Comorbid psychological distress (i.e. insomnia and depression) is experienced by 20–40% of patients with cardiovascular disease. This has a considerable impact on their health and quality of life, leading to frequent re-hospitalisations, higher healthcare costs and a shorter life expectancy. Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy shows great potential for treating psychological distress in cardiovascular disease. Effective and feasible treatments can, however, only benefit patients if they are fully implemented in clinical care.

Aim:

This scoping review aimed to explore the literature for internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy in cardiovascular disease and for strategies to implement the intervention.

Methods:

We searched electronic databases, journals and internet sources to find original studies about internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy in cardiovascular disease, adhering to scoping methodology guidelines. After identifying 267 titles, we screened 40 abstracts and chose 11 full-text articles for full-text screening. The results sections in four articles were searched for outcomes that related to the effectiveness and implementation of internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy by directed qualitative content analysis using an implementation framework.

Results:

Three of the four articles fulfilling the inclusion criteria concerned internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy for treating mild to moderate depressive symptoms in cardiovascular disease, and none focused on insomnia. The studies showed evidence for the effectiveness of internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy, and/or described patient factors influencing clinical effectiveness. Our qualitative content analysis showed that many implementation aspects and stakeholder perspectives remain unexplored.

Conclusions:

Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy promises to alleviate patient suffering in cardiovascular disease. There is, however, little research about internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy for cardiovascular disease, and about how this evidence-based intervention is implemented.
Reliability-oriented extended importance measures in uncertain inventory systems for mechanical products
Authors: Dui Hongyan , Li Ceng , Chen Liwei
Published: February 2019

This article mainly analyzes the applications of importance measures in inventory systems’ reliability. Previous importance measures are mostly developed based on Birnbaum importance; however, they are not applicable to the identification of weakness and optimization in inventory systems by considering the customer requirements for mechanical products. Based on the three-echelon inventory system structure, the corresponding reliability is analyzed under the Poisson distribution. Then three importance measures, namely, composite importance measure, mean absolute deviation, and differential importance measure, are extended to the three-echelon inventory systems. By calculating and comparing the importance values of various components, the key parameters in inventory systems can be identified to achieve the minimal cost and optimal inventory system. Finally, a numerical example is used to demonstrate the proposed method.

Published: February 2019

Enhanced understanding of normal and malignant hematopoiesis pathways should facilitate the development of effective clinical treatment strategies for hematopoietic malignancies. Nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) has been implicated in transcriptional repression and embryonic organ development, but its role in hematopoiesis is yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we showed that hematopoietic-specific loss of NCoR1 leads to expansion of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) pool due to aberrant cell cycle entry of long-term HSCs under steady-state conditions. Moreover, NCoR1-deficient HSCs exhibited normal self-renewal capacity but severely impaired lymphoid-differentiation potential in competitive hematopoietic-reconstitution assays. Transcriptome analysis further revealed that several hematopoiesis-associated genes are regulated by NCoR1. In addition, NCoR1 deficiency in hematopoietic cells delayed the course of leukemia and promoted leukemia cell differentiation in an MLL-AF9–induced mouse model. NCoR1 and its partner, histone deacetylase 3, can modulate histone acetylation and gene transcription through binding the promoter regions of myeloid-differentiation genes. Our collective results support the critical involvement of NCoR1 in normal and malignant hematopoiesis in vivo.

PURPOSE

Active surveillance (AS) for testicular nonseminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCT) is widely used. Although there is no consensus for optimal treatment at relapse on surveillance, globally patients typically receive chemotherapy. We describe treatment of relapses in our non–risk-adapted NSGCT AS cohort and highlight selective use of primary retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND).

METHODS

From December 1980 to December 2015, 580 patients with clinical stage I NSGCT were treated with AS, and 162 subsequently relapsed. First-line treatment was based on relapse site and extent. Logistic regression was used to explore factors associated with need for multimodal therapy on AS relapse.

RESULTS

Median time to relapse was 7.4 months. The majority of relapses were confined to the retroperitoneum (66%). After relapse, first-line treatment was chemotherapy for 95 (58.6%) and RPLND for 62 (38.3%), and five patients (3.1%) underwent other therapy. In 103 (65.6%), only one modality of treatment was required: chemotherapy only in 58 of 95 (61%) and RPLND only in 45 of 62 (73%). Factors associated with multimodal relapse therapy were larger node size (odds ratio, 2.68; P = .045) in patients undergoing chemotherapy and elevated tumor markers (odds ratio, 6.05; P = .008) in patients undergoing RPLND. When RPLND was performed with normal markers, 82% required no further treatment. Second relapse occurred in 30 of 162 patients (18.5%). With median follow-up of 7.6 years, there were five deaths (3.1% of AS relapses, but 0.8% of whole AS cohort) from NSGCT or treatment complications.

CONCLUSION

The retroperitoneum is the most common site of relapse in clinical stage I NSGCT on AS. Most are cured by single-modality treatment. RPLND should be considered for relapsed patients, especially those with disease limited to the retroperitoneum and normal markers, as an option to avoid chemotherapy.
Adorno and Arendt
Authors: Holden Terence
Published: February 2019

Through a comparative analysis of their diagnosis of radical evil with the divergent ways in which Theodor W. Adorno and Hannah Arendt register and respond to the exhaustion of the modern regime of historicity, this article employs the terminology of historical anthropology as developed by Reinhart Koselleck and François Hartog. It proceeds to a retrospective reconstruction of the fashion in which both thinkers stand between the modern and contemporary regimes of historicity by interpreting these diagnoses, precisely in their divergence, as symptomatic of the “crisis of time,” as Hartog puts it, which emerges across the evolution from the former to the latter regime. Adorno and Arendt provide, by virtue of their transitional status, an interesting perspective from which to address the pathological features of the contemporary regime of historicity as identified by Hartog and Hartmut Rosa.
Functional Groups of Organochlorosilanes Influenced Microporous Structure in Organosiloxane Microcapsules Synthesized Using a Water-in-Oil Emulsion Template
Authors: Okada Tomohiko , Aizawa Takayuki
Published: February 2019

Studies on functional groups in organosilyl chlorides have focused on their contribution to the resulting structure and morphology of porous hollow polyorganosiloxane microspheres. The silane coupling agents employed included trifunctional (octylsilyl, methylsilyl, and phenylsilyl trichlorides) and bifunctional (dimethyldisilyl dichloride) silanes. These organosilanes participated in sol-gel reactions (hydrolysis and polycondensation) to produce hollow microspheres at the interfaces of aqueous droplets in a water-in-oil emulsion. Phenylsilyl groups contributed to forming smaller spherical hollow particles via an emulsification effect, while dimethyldisilyl groups deformed the hollow shape. Trifunctional methylsilyl groups allowed the formation of a microporous structure with a large surface area (approximately 400 m2/g), where bulky organic groups (octyl and phenyl) buried the micropores to reduce the specific surface area. These bulky groups were removed via oxidative decomposition to transform microporous polymethylsiloxane. Hence, trifunctional methylsilyl groups were key for tailoring microporous hollow spherical organosilica particles via emulsion templated syntheses.

Published: February 2019

Techniques for selective deposition of conductive inks, in particular metal nano-particulate inks, by using self-assembling monolayers (SAMs) mostly involve control of wettability with highly hydrophobic compounds. In this work, we focused on electrostatic interaction of metal nano-particles and investigated the influence of functional groups on the substrate upon selective deposition of metal nanoparticles. Surface modifiers bearing four kinds of functional groups (-OH, -NH2, -SH, -COOH) protected by a photodegradable 2-nitrobenzyl ester were synthesized and used to form SAMs on an indium tin oxide-coated glass substrate. UV-irradiation through a photomask generated the respective functional group in exposed regions. High-quality patterning of aqueous Au nano-particulate ink, which is negatively charged, was successfully achieved by spin coating onto amine-bearing SAMs. These results suggest the feasibility of micro-scale patterning based on electrostatic interaction between Au nano-particles and free amino groups introduced onto the substrate by photoirradiation-induced deprotection of surface-modifying agents.

Authors: Patel Nisma , Milward Michael
Published: February 2019

Abstract: This is the second of two articles that look at the oral manifestations of mental health disorders. Part 1 focused on eating disorders, covering anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. It explained each condition, common associated habits and explored the possible oral signs and symptoms that may present. Part 2 concentrates on depression and its significant effect on the oral cavity. These articles aim to increase awareness of mental health disorders and highlight the importance of dental practitioners being able to recognize oral signs and symptoms of eating disorders so that appropriate referrals can be made.

CPD/Clinical Relevance: Depression is an increasingly common affliction and therefore it is important for dental professionals to recognize the associated oral manifestations. An improved awareness of the condition and possible symptoms can aid diagnosis and appropriate management.
Management of the extraction socket and alveolar ridge preservation
Authors: Anderson William , Pye Andrew
Published: February 2019

Abstract: An understanding of the changes which occur to the alveolar ridge following an extraction are important in the era of dental implants, and these changes can have a huge impact on the simplicity and invasiveness of dental implant treatment. It has been demonstrated that certain techniques and materials, utilized at the time of extraction, can modify the changes in the alveolar ridge, allowing idealized implant placement with minimal surgical interventions. Techniques for and evidence supporting alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) are presented.

CPD/Clinical Relevance: Dentists and specialists providing implant treatment, and referring patients for treatment, must be aware of implications of extraction and the resulting ridge volume loss.

Authors: Richardson Libby , Devalia Urshla
Published: February 2019

Abstract: A 15-month-old male was admitted to hospital with a facial swelling of unknown origin which was of rapid onset over three hours, resulting in airway occlusion and septic shock. Ultimately, the swelling was found to be of odontogenic origin and was managed with high dose intra-venous antibiotics. Cellulitis of the face can be life-threatening and it is important to be aware of the clinical signs and ensure that the patient receives appropriate care to prevent deterioration.

CPD/Clinical Relevance: It is essential for dentists in primary and secondary care to recognize and understand how to manage or refer a patient with facial cellulitis, and also for medical teams to seek prompt dental input in cases of facial swelling with a possible dental cause.
OS DESAFIOS DA INTEGRAÇÃO DO TRANSPORTE COLETIVO E DA GESTÃO ASSOCIADA: O CASO DA REGIÃO METROPOLITANA DA GRANDE FLORIANÓPOLIS
Authors: Meyer Bernardo , Günther Helen Fischer , Schreiner Tatiana
Published: February 2019

Este estudo objetiva analisar os desafios da gestão associada do transporte coletivo na Região Metropolitana da Grande Florianópolis. O método utilizado foi o de estudo de caso com características qualitativas apoiado em análise documental, observação direta e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os resultados indicaram que a visão limitada acerca da interdependência dos temas de interesse comum, ações isoladas, hiatos de comunicação e critérios unilaterais para tomada de decisões são os principais problemas enfrentados, derivados de impasses administrativos e políticos. Identificou-se que a construção da gestão associada envolve regramento, transparência, compartilhamento de informações, coerência técnica, e visão de longo prazo. Conclui-se que cabe aos entes da gestão associada superar as rivalidades políticas e a tradição de falta de cooperação que norteia o setor público brasileiro. A principal contribuição do artigo é aprofundar conceitual e empiricamente o relacionamento entre duas temáticas pouco estudadas de forma conjunta: a gestão e a mobilidade urbana nas cidades.
O Humor e o Comprometimento com o Trabalho em Organizações de Saúde
Authors: Oliveira Luciana Coelho Carvalho
Published: February 2019

Esta pesquisa verificou qual dimensão do humor está associada ao comprometimento com o trabalho de profissionais que atuam em organizações de saúde. Foram utilizadas para mensurar os tipos de humor e o comprometimento organizacional, escalas já testadas e validadas em estudos anteriores, estruturadas em um questionário que foi aplicado a profissionais de organizações de saúde. Os resultados mostraram que os estilos positivos de humor têm relação direta e positiva com o comprometimento organizacional. Já o estilo de humor agressivo apresentou relação direta, porém negativa, com o comprometimento organizacional, evidenciando que este estilo de humor colabora para reduzir o comprometimento organizacional. O estilo de humor autodepreciativo não apresentou relação com o comprometimento com o trabalho. Esses resultados sugerem que a presença de profissionais com estilos de humor predominantemente positivos nas organizações de saúde contribui para o comprometimento organizacional.

Information Literacy Instruction Determining the Place of Library Professionals
Authors: Bapte Vishal Dattatray
Published: February 2019

The present article is a review of information literacy (IL) outlook in the present academic perspective. The conceptual evolvement of the concept IL stands for wide attention it has got by the theorists.  The paper discusses as how from the traditional bibliographical instruction, it has been advanced as a tool for library and information professionals to streamline the profession and their position. Although the term exist with different tags, it’s worth and performance has been considered more essential than the nomenclature. While being an integral part of formal education system, library professionals have to play dominant role in imparting informal education also. Yet the expected outcome of IL can only be achieved with the collaborative endeavor of library professionals and teaching staff. The existing models of information literacy instruction (ILI) have also been highlighted along with brief overview of information literacy content. Since IL is the basic pre-requisite of lifelong learning, the article exhorts international, national and local governments should have information policies and strategies with emphasis on assessment. ILIAC model developed by Oakleaf is noteworthy in this respect. Library professionals are predictable to play a key role in extending cognitive abilities of the users to make IL to be a great success. As such a brief review of their expected role is undertaken.
Moral Identity and Moral Judgement of Subclinical Psychopaths in Normal Population
Authors: Kaur Harprit , Swati Dr
Published: February 2019

Subclinical psychopaths are those individuals who have most of psychopath’s traits but doesn’t indulge in serious antisocial behavior and thus rarely get imprisoned1. Psychopaths have been generally reported to be low on ethical behaviours. This study is an attempt to see if subclinical psychopaths too are low on moral aspects like clinical psychopaths. For this study data of 279 young adults in the age group of 18 to 25 years were collected from various colleges and universities of Punjab. Correlation analysis revealed that subclinical psychopathy is negatively related to moral identity internalisation, however, no relation was found with moral judgement and moral identity symbolisation. When the two group subclinical psychopath’s ad non-subclinical psychopaths were compared they were found to differ on moral identity internalisation. With regression analysis subclinical psychopathy was found to be a significant predictor of moral identity internalisation.
Perception of Job Stress among Fighter Controllers in Indian Air Force
Authors: Chaturvedula Sowgandhi , BK Avinash
Published: February 2019

The fighter controllers (FC) are an occupational group who deal with a hectic, difficult and highly demanding job. Their occupation entails high levels of responsibility in terms of shouldering the Air Defence operations. These kinds of duties require them to perform optimally at all times and thus impose high grade of an unambiguous occupational stress. In the present study 38 Fighter Controllers of 4 IAF Stations were administered Organisational Role Stress (ORS) scale, Stress Buster Tool Kit and Holmes & Rahe Stress Scale. It was found that 66 per cent of the participants felt Inter Role Distance as a reason for high graded stress, similarly Role Stagnancy (55 %), Role overload (61 %) and Role Isolation (40 %) have severely affected the sample studied. Stress buster tool kit showed that 34 per cent participants perceived severe service related and workplace related stress. Holmes & Rahe questionnaire reported that a total of 31.6 per cent participants were at 90 per cent risk of developing systemic co-morbidities due to stress. This study reports that Fighter Controllers perceive their role to be less important with little opportunities for growth. A significant finding that emerged and that needs attention is the possibility that 1/3rd of the participants are prone to stress induced illnesses. The role of Aerospace Medicine Specialists in this context is paramount in alleviating stress and enhancing self-esteem in Fighter Controllers.
Effect of Fuel Distribution on the Onset of Detonation in Gaseous Octane Air Mixture
Authors: Bassi Sunil , Soni Sanjay Kumar , Chaturvedi Shashank

Formation of detonation waves in a tube is a complex phenomenon and depends upon many factors like ignition energy, presence of a deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) enhancement device and spatial distribution of fuel, etc. In present study, gaseous octane-air mixtures have been examined by varying the equivalence ratio linearly along the axial direction of the detonation tube though the overall stoichiometry was maintained in the tube. Three different conditions have been modelled and studied, which includes small, moderate and large, fuel density gradient in axial direction with equivalence ratio ranging from 1 to 2 near the ignition zone. A series of simulation study have been conducted and the analysis of simulation results reveal that the DDT onset is significantly affected by the initial fuel distribution at the ignition zone as well as on fuel density gradient in a detonation tube. It has been observed thata moderate gradient in the fuel density distribution is favorable for onset of detonations. From the study of pressure plots for above mentioned conditions it has been found that the presence of large gradients in fuel density has adverse effect on the stability of detonation wave.

Authors: Pulido Aponte Álvaro Ervey , Rivera Escobar Hernán Mauricio , Espitia Pardo Jhon Jairo
Published: February 2019

Contexto: En Colombia, el contenido rumial bovino (CRB) es vertido generalmente a los cauces de agua y campos a cielo abierto y, dada su alta carga orgánica, su disposición final representa una amenaza de tipo ambiental, económica y social. A la fecha, es limitada la implementación de tecnologías que permitan reducir el impacto debido en parte a la escasa caracterización del CRB, información que es requerida para la construcción de modelos matemáticos de digestión anaerobia que expliquen la reducción de este bio-sólido; por otro lado, la restringida aplicación de sistemas de control y supervisión enfocados a la generación de subproductos con potencial aprovechamiento energético también constituye un motivo.

Objetivo: Documentar los métodos utilizados en el desarrollo de un sistema de control y supervisión de temperatura y presión para un biodigestor discontinuo a escala de laboratorio con biomasa CRB.

Métodos: Se realizó la implementación de un sistema de adquisición distribuida de señales y una interfaz de servidor web; se identificó un modelo dinámico correspondiente al comportamiento del sistema de digestión anaerobia para esta biomasa CRB.

Resultados: Se logró caracterizar, mediante gravimetría y calorimetría, variables asociadas al sistema de digestión anaerobia con CRB. Frente al control, el controlador on-off mantuvo la presión del gas en el rango deseado y el controlador PI garantizó la temperatura deseada del proceso.

Conclusión: Fue posible generar biogás a partir de biomasa CRB desde esquemas básicos de caracterización, supervisión y control del proceso.
For the love of modernity: adventures of the novel or trails of the genre in the second half of the 19th century
Modernite aşkına: Türkçe romanın sergüzeşti yahut XIX. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında türün izini sürmek
Authors: Karakoç İrfan
Published: February 2019

During the second half of the 19th century, while the Ottoman press, publishing and literary platforms were flourishing, a need for a more “practical” language of writing arose to convey ideas, and there was a great need to have a new, a more practical language while writing. A language that can convey an idea, a language that can produce information, and a writing style that can spread both. This need for a new language is emphasized by the prominent figures of “New Literature”, and to these writers and prominent figures in the Ottoman state novel as a genre seemed promising for the modernization of Ottoman society as a whole.This article is focusing on the novel’s function during the second half of the 19th century. At the centre of the matter is the reaction of Ottoman –Turkish intelligentsia to the new genre. The article is trying to depict the relationship between classical forms and the new genre and how writers were motivated to merge and create a local novel genre. While doing that we will be mentioning why and how this new genre made local by the names, such as sergüzeşt and hikaye and it’s communication with the “acaib u garaib – supernatural stories” of the Middle Eastern classical literature.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetOsmanlı basın ve edebiyat ortamının 1850’lerden sonra hareketlenmeye başlamasının da etkisiyle, edebiyatın fikri, düşünceyi ifade edebilecek, bilgi üretecek ve onu yayacak bir “yazı dili”ne ihtiyacı açık bir şekilde anlaşılmıştır. Bu ihtiyaç, “yeni edebiyat”ın önemli temsilcileri ve modernleşmeye çalışan devletin yöneticileri tarafından da sıklıkla vurgulanmıştır. İşte bu yönetici/yazarlar, modernleşmek için ihtiyaç duydukları bu yeni dili, çok yönlü bir şekilde kullanabilecekleri bir araç olan romanla kurabileceklerini fark etmişlerdir.Türün XIX. yüzyılın ikinci yarısındaki serüvenine odaklanan bu çalışmada, işte bu yazı dilinin Osmanlı-Türk edebiyatında yazar, okur, matbuat yani edebiyat kamusu tarafından nasıl algılandığı üzerinde düşünülecektir. Makalede, doğayı, insanı, toplumu anlatan romanın, Osmanlı edebiyatına girişine kadar dolaşımda olan hikâye etme pratikleriyle olan ilişkisi de göz önünde bulundurulacaktır. Ayrıca, bu ilişkinin edebiyat tarihi araştırmalarında yorumlanma tarzı, türe gösterilen davranış kalıpları Osmanlı-Türkiye modernleşme refleksleri üzerinden tartışılacaktır. Bu bağlamda türün sergüzeşt, hikâye kelimeleriyle yerelleştirilmesi, ahlâkı temel alan bir yapıyla yazılması ve Ortadoğu klasik edebiyatlarında görülen “acâib ü gâraib” anlatılarıyla bağlantısı tartışılacaktır.

Authors: Amalina Lisa , Warsito Agung , Handoko Susatyo
Published: February 2019

Pada sistem tenaga listrik terdapat beberapa penyebab yang dapat mempengaruhi nilai rugi daya antara lain  panjang jaringan, diameter penghantar, pembebanan kapasitas trafo. Berdasarkan SPLN 72: 1986, besar nilai rugi daya pada suatu jaringan adalah sebesar maksimal 5%. Salah satu cara yang dapat digunakan untuk meminimalisir nilai rugi daya adalah dengan pengaturan nilai tap trafo pada trafo. Pada PT PJB Indramayu,terdapat 23 buah trafo permakaian sendiri. Rugi sistem rata-rata adalah sebesar 5%. Dalam tugas akhir ini, pengoptimalan pengaturan Tap trafo dilakukan dengan simulasi menggunakan metode Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) dibantu menggunakan software MATLAB 2014a. Metode optimasi menggunakan PSO ini didasarkan pada perilaku sebuah kawanan burung. Simulasi ini dilaksanakan dengan cara pengaturan Tap trafo pada masing masing trafo. Hasil simulasi menunjukkan dengan pengaturan tap trafo pada semua trafo pada PT PJB Indramayu nilai rugi daya turun dari 20.7946 MW menjadi 20.7901MW.

METODA KONTRASTYWNA I KRYTERIA TEKSTUALNOŚCI W PRZEKŁADZIE TEKSTÓW PRAWNICZYCH
Authors: BIELAWSKI Paweł
Published: February 2019

This paper focuses on legal translation. First, the author defines legal texts and points to particular responsibility related with legal translation resulting from the status of these texts. Turning to the aspects of translation, the author underlines the boundness of each legal system to the country it is in force. At the same time, he points to the conceptual and terminological uniqueness resulting from this boundness. Against this backdrop, the premisses of, both, the comparative law and comparative terminology are presented. With regard to legal translation the similarities and differences existing between both comparative approaches are stated. In the final step, the author points to the importance of seven standards of textuality in legal translation. The purpose of the present paper is to emphasize the importance of the comparative approach and of the textuality for legal translation. The Author stresses here these aspects of translation which allow the  target text to become a functional equivalent to the source text.
Legal Russian in Legal - Linguistic Research
Authors: GALDIA Marcus
Published: February 2019

The article focuses upon the emergence and the development of the legal Russian language and the methodology used for its scrutiny in the legal-linguistic research in Russia and abroad. It shows some of the dominant tendencies in the legal-linguistic and related research in a perspective that combines material issues concerning the work on textual sources and their identification as well as methods developed in Russia to deal with legal- linguistic problems. The author aims to portray methodological continuity and discontinuity in a research area with a relatively long history. The overview of topics and methods demonstrates that the development in the area of the legal-linguistic research in Russia displays all characteristic features of the European legal-linguistic tradition, and especially the shift in the attention of scholars from isolated terminological issues to discursive aspects of law.
