DA-AFM for Ultra PV and Wind Energy Integration
Authors: Wan Wenfeng , Bragin Mikhail , Luh Peter , Zhang Peng
Published: February 2021

This paper presents distributed and asynchronous active fault management (DA-AFM) to manage renewable energy upon faults. Addressed here are two challenges in fault management for photovoltaic (PV) farms and wind farms. The first one is the activation of crowbars in doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine systems during fault ride-though. The activation undesirably makes DFIG-based wind farms lose control and absorb reactive power. The second challenge is implementation of distributed fault management for distinct PV farms with different objectives and constraints. Coordination for large number of PV farms facilitates integration of themselves and other renewable energy. To prevent crowbars from being activated, DA-AFM controls nearby PV farms’ interface converters to smooth voltage drops so that DFIGs experience voltages with a lower dropping speed. To enable distributed computation of DA-AFM's optimization formulation, a distributed and asynchronous surrogate Lagrangian relaxation (DA-SLR) method is devised to coordinate a cluster of PV farms. Simulation results have demonstrated DA-AFM's effectiveness in preventing crowbars' activation in wind farms and in coordinating diverse PV farms.

These studies provide new insights into the relationship between parenting style, home environment and the timing of children's use of new technologies. The social and physical home environment has a unique impact on children's viewing time, regardless of parenting style. Our results indicate a relatively low association between parenting style and screen time in 8-year-olds. To reduce the time a child spends watching TV or using a computer or game console, it may be important for parents to become more aware of the impact they have on their child's behavior, especially at an early age.

The aim: The purpose of the study is to characterize the influence of quantitative and qualitative composition of gingival microbiota on the status of the main immune system cells, localized in the gums, in chronic generalized catarrhal gingivitis in children.
Materials and methods: The study involved 26 children aged 9 to 16 years, patients with chronic generalized catarrhal gingivitis mild to moderate severity (CGCG) and 18 children with intact gums were comparison group. We determined the hygienic indices Fedorov, has been received, Silness-Loe, PMA, bleeding index for Myuleman and intensity of caries index CFD + cf, CFD. Histological and immunohistochemical studies were performed on serial sections kriostatnyh who made biopsy of gingival papillae. Microbiological study gingival part of crown plaque was performed by multiplexed PCR in real time.
Results: Value hygienic indices in children with CGCG higher than in healthy, indicating the difficulty of care in the presence of periodontal inflammation. As a result of immunohistochemical studies revealed that HLA-DR + cells under conditions of active disease migrate to mucosal lamina propria epithelium. Number of CD3 + cells in the epithelium CGCG was significantly higher than the number in the intact epithelium and was the most numerous of population. In the biopsy of affected children significantly reduced the number of CD4 + cells. When CGCG quantitative total bacterial mass, Lactobacillus spp., Enterobacteriaceae, Gardnerella vaginalis / Prevotella bivia / Porphyromonas spp. in the sample CROWN dental plaque was significantly higher than rates under physiological conditions, and may serve as diagnostic criteria of dysbiosis.
Conclusions: So, CGCG is a disease in the etiology of which is one of the leading roles played by microbial factor, namely, the value of the quantitative ratios of certain types of microorganisms of dental plaque compared to the total bacterial mass of plaque. Therefore, it is reasonable to include comprehensive treatment CGCG drugs in children, leading to natural immunostimulation which causes restoration of local immunity in the gum tissue and drugs to restore quantitative and qualitative composition of normal microflora of the child, thus providing a high therapeutic effect and serve as justification their choice.

Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest Muslim majority in the world. As many as 87.18% of the 237,641,326 population of Indonesia are Muslims. As the fact is that the majority of Indonesia's population is Muslim, Islam has greatly influenced the developing culture. Including the pattern of consumerization among Indonesians is very much influenced by Islam. The pattern of consumerization is comprehensive. One of them is the pattern of people's consumption of food ingredients. The phenomenon that occurs in connection with this is that the public understands the importance of consuming halal products, but does not have an accurate basis to be used as a reference for the halalness of a product. In the above explanation, it can be concluded that the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has certified halal products and MUI has also labeled halal products, meaning that consuming good, halal food has been tried to the maximum by the government by taking the form of consumer protection and protection. With this the author wants to socialize about how to Consume Halal Food Again according to the Concept of Islam and the Indonesian Government

Authors: Kida Minja Irene
Published: February 2021

Background: Root caries is an emerging dental health problem for elderly mostly because of increased life expectancy and improvement in oral health care, leading to higher retention of teeth, and hence increased number of exposed root surfaces susceptible to caries.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of root caries and associated sociodemographic, behavioral and clinical factors among elderly patients who attended dental clinics in selected public hospital in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Methods: Elderly patients 60 years and above were interviewed to obtain socio demographic and behavioral factors. This was followed by clinical examination to assess teeth with root caries, gingival recession and oral hygiene of the patients.

Findings: The study involved 348 elderly with mean age of 76 SD ± 6.2 years. Prevalence of root caries was 42.2% (n=147) and the mean root caries index was 6.77%, SD 9.6 (0.00 – 43.24). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that; older age (OR 1.8, CI 1.13 – 2.87), having higher level of education (OR1.77, CI 1.1 – 2.93) and poor oral hygiene (OR 4.03, CI 2.3 – 6.98), significantly associated with having root caries. Across all the types of teeth, maxillary teeth were mostly affected by root caries than mandibular teeth.

Conclusion: The current study reveals high prevalence of root caries among the examined elderly patients. Socio-demographic as well as clinical factors contributed significantly to having root caries. Appropriate oral hygiene measures and prevention of gingival recession is recommended when providing oral health care for the elderly in Dar es Salaam.

The aim of this study is to investigate, through the application of stakeholder theory, the challenges faced by the Bergen 2017 Organizing Committee when hosting the 2017 Road World Championship in cycling. Data for the case study were collected through interviews with eight senior
representatives from stakeholders such as the Organizing Committee Bergen 2017 and international and national federations, event observations, and from the analysis of selected documents. The study examined the development of stakeholder relationships through three phases in the development
and delivery of the event (i. e., preevent, event time, and postevent). The Bergen 2017 organizing committee members were referred to as happy amateurs by the media but proved to be astute in managing their relationship with the international federation as a primary stakeholder and
resourceful in coping with a shortage of professional staff due to the help by volunteers. The research illustrates the problematic nature of stakeholder management in temporary event organizations and how it is possible to host a major event with limited resources, in terms of skills, time,
staff, finance, and support from important stakeholders. These results have significant implications for event organizers facing similar resource challenges and who have to manage a complex network of stakeholders. The results also have implications for stakeholder theory in relation to the
distinctive challenges arising from the temporary nature of the organizing committee and their evolution through the different phases.

Predication and Analysis of Epileptic Seizure Neurological Disorder using Intracranial Electroencephalography (iEEG)
Authors: Pawar Sanjay S. , Chougule Sangeeta R.
Published: February 2021

Epileptic seizure is one of the neurological brain disorder approximately 50 million of world’s population is affected. Diagnosis of seizure is done using medical test Electroencephalography. Electroencephalography is a technique to record brain signal by placing electrodes on scalp. Electroencephalography suffers from disadvantage such as low spatial resolution and presence of artifact. Intracranial Electroencephalography is used to record brain electrical activity by mounting strip, grid and depth electrodes on surface of brain by surgery. Online standard Intracranial Electroencephalography data is analyzed by our system for predication and analysis of Epileptic seizure. The pre-processing of Intracranial Electroencephalography signal is done and is further analyzed in wavelet domain by implementation of Daubechies Discrete Wavelet Transform. Features were extracted to classify as preictal and ictal state. Analysis of preictal state was carried out for predication of seizure. Intracranial Electroencephalography signals provide better result and accuracy in seizure detection and predication. Earlier warning can also be issued to control seizure with anti- epileptic drugs
Dynamics of Carbon Stocks in the Formation of Forests on Post-Agrogenic Lands
Authors:   Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov, Nakvasina Elena N. , Shumilova Yuliya N. ,   Northern Research Institute of Forestry
Published: February 2021

Carbon stocks were calculated in different components of bigeocenosis (soil, living ground cover, forest floor, undergrowth, underbrush and forest stand) using the example of a selected chronosequence of fallows (4 sample areas of different age, yrs: 16, 25, 63 and 130) in the Kargopol district of the Arkhangelsk region (middle taiga subzone, residual carbonate soils). The structure of carbon stocks of the forming plantations and its changes with the fallow age is estimated. It was found that a natural increase in carbon stocks and its redistribution between the soil and the forming phytocenosis occurs in the process of succession during the afforestation of arable lands. In plantations growing on young fallows, more than 86 % of the carbon stock is represented by carbon from the arable soil horizon. During the colonization of the fallow by forest vegetation the share of this pool decreases and already in the middle-aged 63-year-old forest it is 22 %, and in the mature 130-year-old forest it is only 7.6 %. In the structure of the total carbon stock in the middleaged plantation, the share of the stand reaches 69 %, and in the mature 130-year-old stand it is already 90 %. In plantations on young fallows, the structure of the main components of biogeocenosis (soil carbon, ground cover carbon and tree layer carbon) is characterized by a ratio of 9:1:0, whereas in plantations on old fallows of 63 and 130 years it is 2:0:8 and 1:0:9, respectively. The undergrowth and underbrush of the studied chronosequence are characterized by the small shares of carbon, which do not have a significant value in the structure of the ecosystem carbon pool. Forest floor in forming forest stands contributes significantly to the carbon structure of the biogeocenosis, although the total biogeocenosis carbon pool is 3–4 % and does not contribute to an increase in soil carbon stocks. In the system “soil – forest floor – living ground cover” the share of soil carbon decreases from 91 to 76–77 % with the increase in the age of plantation, while the share of formed forest floor in the middle-aged and mature forest is 16 and 20 %, respectively. In plantations on young fallows the ratio of these components of biogeocenosis is 9:0:1, whereas on old fallows it is 8:2:0. Leaving arable land on residual carbonate soils for self-overgrowth with forest vegetation and formation of forest plantations on them in the middle taiga subzone will lead to a gradual decrease in the carbon pool in the soil, but will contribute to the sequencing of carbon in the phytomass of perennial woody vegetation and in forest floor. These two components of biogeocenosis will serve as a sequenced carbon depot, supporting the biological cycle.

Modern shelterbelts of Krasnodar Krai do not fully protect arable land and often have different sanitary state. Under these conditions, the preservation of forest shelterbelts and their protective functions in the system of agroforestry and other complex continues to be relevant. The research was carried out in the main and auxiliary forest shelterbelts within the boundaries of the Ust-Labinsk district of Krasnodar Krai. The purpose of the research was to determine the ecological state of the forest shelterbelts by identifying their integrity and implementation of forestry and land reclamation assessment. In order to obtain more complete information on their state, a remote assessment of the tree canopy integrity of the shelterbelts was carried out. It follows from the remote assessment analysis that about 42.5 % of the area surveyed in the key plots of plantations has an average degree of integrity of tree canopy, high – 22.3 %, low and very low – 35.2 %. Lower indicators of the tree canopy integrity are observed in the auxiliary forest shelterbelts. The percentage participation of each group of forest shelterbelts allowed us to rank the ranges of integrity corresponding to a certain forestry and land reclamation assessment (units). The range of the tree canopy integrity from 0 to 25 % corresponds to grade 1, from 25 to 50 % – 2, from 50 to 70 % – 3, from 70 to 100 % – 4. Based on this, the shelterbelts were devided into 4 groups: norm, risk, crisis and disaster. The results of determining the ecological state of the forest shelterbelts by ground and remote methods in the Ust-Labinsk district of Krasnodar Krai showed that a significant part of the surveyed plantations has a dense structure and requires silvicultural care. The group of the forest shelterbelts “disaster” needs reconstruction. This will significantly improve the environmental condition and reclamation efficiency, as well as increase the service life of the systems of forest sheltebelts.

It was experimentally found that among 25–30-year-old soft-leaved stands there is Siberian pine (Pinus sibirica Du Tour); besides this, nominal undergrowth of this species can be found under the canopy. Improvement felling can provide an increase in the share of Siberian pine in the composition of the forming plantations and even its dominance in stands. It is recommended to carry out improvement felling by the strip method. On the first-stage the felling of soft-leaved species in strips of 10 m wide is carried out, while leaving strips of similar width without care. On the second stage in 10 years soft-leaved trees are cut down in those strips where care was not taken. Felling of all the accompanying Siberian pine trees in a single shot is inadmissible, since it leads to intensive growth of herbaceous vegetation, sodding and exclusion of the Siberian pine undergrowth as well as dramatically increases the fire danger in spring and autumn. In addition, at the indicated intensity, the specimens of Siberian pine left for cultivation are affected by Pineus cembrae (Cholodovsky, 1988).

The purpose of this study was to substantiate the possibility of correcting lipid metabolism changes at dark deprivation using linseed oil, melatonin, and their combination. Materials and methods. The experiment involved 130 white outbred male rats with a body weight of 170–220 g. The animals were divided into 5 groups: rats under standard fixed lighting conditions (12 hours light/12 hours dark); rats under modelled dark deprivation with round-the-clock lighting (24 hours light); rats under modelled dark deprivation with round-the-clock lighting (24 hours light) receiving intragastric injections of linseed oil, melatonin or their combination from day 1 of the experiment. Serum concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total phospholipids (TPL) and atherogenic index (AI) were determined. Results. Long-term dark deprivation led to dyslipoproteinemia, which consists in an increase in serum concentrations of TC by a factor of 1.33 (p = 0.0009), TG by a factor of 1.62 (p = 0.013), LDL-C by a factor of 1.2 (p = 0.026) and TPL by a factor of 1.15 (p = 0.0082). The severity of changes in TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C and TPL concentrations varied depending on the duration of the experiment. During the use of linseed oil, melatonin or their combination under dark deprivation, the severity of disorders caused by desynchronosis decreased and lipid metabolism in rat serum normalized, especially at the initial stages of the research. Conclusion. Changes in lipid metabolism due to desynchronosis in rats injected with the substances under study were significantly smaller compared with animals that did not receive them. The most pronounced effects of administering these substances were observed in the group of rats treated with linseed oil and melatonin at the same time.

Aims: To determine the correlation between cognitive and academic levels in anxious overweight/obeseadolescents.Methods: The Spence Child Anxiety Scale (SCAS) was used to check the level of anxiety on 98 overweight/obese adolescents aged 12-16 years. After meeting inclusion criteria participants were evaluated by MiniMental State Examination (MMSE) for level of cognition and Academic Performance Rating Scale (APRS)for academic performance.Results: 5.10% of obese/overweight adolescents had moderate cognition, and 13.27% mild cognition. Nosignificant association was seen in BMI and anxiety with cognition and academic performance, however, apositive correlation was seen between cognition and academic performance (p<0.05).Conclusion: Anxiety rates in overweight/obese adolescents are not directly proportional to levels ofcognition and academic performance. However, age rise has a correlation with BMI rise and level of anxiety.The research showed that cognition levels are associated with academic performance.
Advanced survey effort required to obtain bat assemblage data in temperate woodlands (Chiroptera)

There is a lack of precise guidelines concerning the survey effort required for advanced bat surveys in temperate European woodlands, resulting in a lack of standardisation in survey methods. In this study we assess catch data from 56 bat trapping surveys at 11 UK woodland sites in order to provide recommendations for mist net survey effort required to gain meaningful bat assemblage data in temperate woodlands. Species accumulation curves were produced and were used to develop two novel values for survey effort: the minimum survey threshold (MST), whereby surveyors are more likely than not to encounter less dominant species; and the known species threshold (KST), the point where a given percentage (in our case, 75%) of the known species assemblage for a site is likely to be reached and beyond which there are diminishing returns for survey effort. For our data, the mean of MST was 17.4 net hours, and for KST, the mean was 29.8 net hours. The MST and KST values were reached during the second and third surveys, respectively. These proposed values are adaptable based on location and known species assemblage and may be used for planning advanced bat surveys in temperate woodlands not only to maximise survey efficacy and use of limited resources but to ensure ethical viability of undertaking advanced surveys in the first place.

ABSTRACT

This study aims to determine that earnings management is influenced by managerial overconfidence and family ownership. This study uses an indeks to measure the managerial overconfidence variable which is constructed in the components of investment activity, financial activity, and dividend policy with the industry median as a comparison. The data used is a sample of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange during 2012-2017. Manufacturing companies are selected as research samples because manufacturing companies have varying levels of earnings volatility. This study's research method to analyze data and test hypotheses is descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression. The results of statistical tests in this study indicate that the managerial overconfidence variable has a positive effect on earnings management. In addition, testing the interaction between family ownership with managerial overconfidence does not equate to improved earnings management.

Penyakit demam berdarah merupakan masalah kesehatan masyarakat di Indonesia. Pengendalain nyamuk dewasa dan larva belum menunjukkan keberhasilan yang signifikan. Pengendalian nyamuk Aedes aegypti perlu dilakukan dengan cara lain salah satunya adalah menghambat perkembangan telur nyamuk. Klorin sebagai salah satu bahan yang dapat menghambat perkembangan telur. karena terdapat klorin yang mampu mengoksidasi (membakar) telur nyamuk Aedes aegypt idengan merusak protein yang terdapat dalam telur nyamuk Aedes aegypti. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah diketahui perbedaan konsentrasi klorin terhadap daya tetas telur nyamuk Aedesaegypti. Jenis penelitian ini berupa penelitiandengan metode Eksperimen. Rancangan Penelitian ini adalah post test with control only design. Analisis yang digunakanadalahuji One Way Anova dan uji Benferonny. Hasil analisis Univariat menunjukkan bahwa kelompok kontrol jumlah telur yang tidak menetas adalah 2% dan pada konsentrasi 40 ppm jumlah telur yang tidak menetas 94%. Hasil uji Anova mennjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang bermakna rata-rata jumlah telur yang tidak menetas pada berbagai macam variasi dosis klorin (p=0,000). Sedangkan dari hasil uji Benferonny menunjukan terdapat perbedaan jumah telur yang tidak menetas pada konsentrasi 10 ppm dan 20 ppm (p=0,000). Diharapkan penelitian ini dapat memberikan informasi bagi masyarakat dengan cara mengamplikasikan konsentrasi 20 ppm untuk menyemprot tempat perindukan nyamuk.
