Published: December 2020

With the advent of machine learning, data-based models can be used to increase efficiency and reduce cost for the characterization of various anomalies in pipelines. In this work, artificial intelligence is used to classify pipeline dents directly from the in-line inspection (ILI) data according to their risk categories. A deep neural network model is built with available ILI data, and the resulting machine learning model requires only the ILI data as an input to classify dents in different risk categories. Using a machine learning based model eliminates the need for conducting detailed engineering analysis to determine the effects of dents on the integrity of the pipeline. Concepts from computer vision are used to build the deep neural network using the available data. The deep neural network model is then trained on a sub set of the available ILI data and the model is tested for accuracy on a previously unseen set of the available data. The developed model predicts risk factors associated with a dent with 94% accuracy for a previously unseen data set.

The key factor determining the strength, reliability, service life and fail-safe operation of the main pipeline is its stress-strain state. The purpose of this article is to develop a mathematical framework and methodology for calculating the stress-strain state of a pipeline section laid in complex geotechnical conditions, taking into account all planned and altitude changes and impacts at various points of operation, as well as during repair and after its completion. The mathematical framework is based on differential equations reflecting the equilibrium state of the pipeline, taking into account the features of the sections (configuration, size, initial stress state, acting forces, temperature conditions, interaction with soil, supports, and pipe layers). The equilibrium equations are drawn up in a curvilinear coordinate system – the same one that is used for in-pipe diagnostics. According to the results of the solution, all stress components are determined at each point both along the length of the pipeline and along the circumference of any section. At the same time, transverse and longitudinal forces, bending moments, shearing forces, pipeline displacements relative to the ground and soil response to displacements are determined. As an example, a solution is given using the developed mathematical framework. During the course of calculation, the places where the lower form of the pipe does not touch the ground and the places where the support reaction becomes higher than a predetermined limit are determined. A comparative analysis was accomplished, and the optimal method for section repair has been selected.

Cladding repair is the one of the most simple and least expensive repair technologies. It refers to both permanent and temporary repair methods. It reduces work costs and time of repair works while retaining the quality required by the statutory requirements. With the help of cladding repair, a significant number of defects of corrosion-mechanical origin can be eliminated. The problem of improving this technology is of utmost importance. The purpose of the present research is to develop the technology for effective and safe cladding repair of such defects as corrosion damages of pipe metal and such welded connection defects as incomplete groove filling, undercut, pores, strikes, slag inclusion. The following problems were solved to reach this goal: research of thermal cycles in the course of cladding, research of cladding modes, development of multipass repair technology, determination of allowable defect parameters, and detection of methods for optimal quality control of repaired areas. The specialists performed testing of full-scale pipe samples and circular joint of pipes, imitating the surface defects after cladding repair. The test results did not reveal the damage of metal and welded connection areas. Cladding repair allows recovering bearing capacity of pipeline to design level. This technology can be used in the works on shutdown pipelines and on pipelines under operation.

ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF MINERAL RESOURCES FROM THE STANDPOINT OF BUSINESS AND SOCIAL PROFITABILITY
Authors: Tosovic Radule
Published: December 2020

The application of economic criteria of profitability and business operation is not only required but essential in the modern business climate for the proper functioning of a country’s mineral sector, mineral economics and ensuring market survival. A distinctive feature of economic evaluations of mineral reserves is their division into strategic mineral resources and other mineral resources. Apart from their economic significance, strategic mineral resources are particularly noteworthy due to their national or social importance. Depending on the type of resource and its social and economic significance, the economic evaluation of mineral resources may be conducted from two standpoints: business and social profitability. Given the transition of the mineral economics into a market economy, special attention needs to be paid to social profitability, since solely orienting towards business profitability may cause long-term negative effects on the economy and mineral economics. What this means in practice is adhering to economic criteria and market orientation on one hand, while analytically including key components of social profitability on the other.

Published: December 2020

Learning about prison management in Guyana since independence in 1966 is fraught with difficulty due to the paucity of surviving records. This paper investigates attitudes towards and practices of recordkeeping in order to start developing a historical sociology of recordkeeping in Guyana. Within this framework, prison recordkeeping is explored for the colonial and post-independence periods.  The paper ends with a consideration of other sources and methods that are needed to provide a fuller picture of both prison management and the experiences had in prison by prisoners and prison officers.
Changing Approaches to Mental Healthcare in the Caribbean Conferences on Mental Health, 1957-1969
Authors: Toner Deborah , Anderson Clare , Jackson Shammane Joseph
Published: December 2020

This paper examines discussions among physicians, psychologists, public health officials, religious leaders and others who participated in the Caribbean Conferences on Mental Health between 1957 and 1969. Their discussions demonstrate major changes in the understanding of causes, definitions and appropriate treatments of mental health conditions, compared to the late nineteenth century, which saw a wave of major reforms to the management of mental illness in public asylums. Although major shifts in professional understandings of mental health were evident in the mid-twentieth century, the Caribbean Conferences on Mental Health reveal that the problems hindering the implementation of these new approaches were largely similar to those that Guyana and other Caribbean countries continue to face today.

The marvelous self-cleaning properties of lotus leaves and their superhydrophobic nature inspire the researchers to mimic such functionalities on cotton fabrics. The present work aimed to prepare and characterize true non-sticky superhydrophobic properties on cotton samples. The required combination of micro and nanostructure roughness was achieved by depositing the silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) on cotton surfaces by dip-coating method. To enhance adhesion and durability of silica particles with cotton, SiNPs were functionalized with 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) before deposition. The surface energy of SiNPs coated cotton samples was lowered by functionalizing with 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-Perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (PFOTS). The morphology, surface chemistry and wettability characterizations of prepared samples were performed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and contact angle measurement system (goniometer) respectively. SEM micrographs revealed the nice decoration of SiNPs (having particles size range 90-150 nm) on the cotton fibers leaving to the hierarchical roughness. The EDX analysis confirmed the coatings of SiNPs and PFOTS. Contact angle measurements exhibited the superhydrophobic nature of prepared surfaces by static water contact angle of 157±2° and sliding angle of less than 5. The functionalized SiNPs/PFOTS cotton fabrics can effectively be used for self-cleaning applications.

Membangun Constitutional Morality Hakim Konstitusi di Indonesia
Authors: Lailam Tanto
Published: December 2020

Penelitian ini mengenai constitutional morality hakim konstitusi pasca reformasi di Indonesia yang menimbulkan persoalan independensi, imparsialitas dan akuntabilitas peradilan. Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah memberikan desain konstruksi moralitas konstitusi, sekaligus membongkar dan menata kembali constitutional morality dalam putusan MK dan perilaku hakim konstitusi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan mengutamakan data sekunder, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan (statute approach) dan pendekatan kasus (case approach). Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bangunan moralitas terkandung dalam Pancasila dan UUD 1945, baik dalam kategori nilai (nilai hukum dan moral), asas/ prinsip, kategori norma/ kaidah (norma hukum dan norma moral). Dalam putusan MK, moralitas konstitusi digunakan sebagai tolok ukurnya, sekalipun faktanya ada beberapa putusan yang kering dari moralitas konstitusi. Dalam konteks perilaku hakim, beberapa kasus terjadi, kasus kategori pelanggaran ringan, seperti: kasus Hakim Konstitusi Arsyad Sanusi, kasus Hakim Konstitusi Arief Hidayat. Kasus pelanggaran berat, seperti: kasus Akil Mochtar dan kasus Hakim Konstitusi Patrialis Akbar. Sehingga kedepan, perlu penguatan moralitas konstitusi dalam proses rekrutmen dan akuntabilitas hakim konstitusi dengan mempertajam dimensi moralitas konstitusi, misalnya syarat bertakwa kepada Tuhan Yang Maha Esa, syarat integritas hakim dan syarat berakhlak mulia.

Moralisierungen in Gastfamilien für unbegleitete Geflüchtete
Authors: Gottschalk Ines
Published: December 2020

Im Beitrag werden Gastfamilien für unbegleitete Geflüchtete als moralische Handlungsräume verstanden, an die unterschiedliche Orientierungen der Moralisierung, aber auch moralische Werte herangetragen werden. Es wird gezeigt, dass Gastfamilien verschiedene Funktionen einnehmen, wenn sie den Unbegleiteten als Gast oder Familienmitglied verstehen, und dass dadurch auch differente Orientierungen und Werthaltungen anders bearbeitet werden können. Als sich neuformierender symbolischer Handlungsraum obliegt es den Gastfamilienmitgliedern, ihre Orientierungen und Wertvorstellungen im Rahmen alltäglicher Interaktionen auszuhandeln. Entlang einer qualitativen Einzelfallstudie aus Deutschland wird gezeigt, wie Moralvorstellungen, aber auch die Rolle des Unbegleiteten und die damit einhergehenden Spielräume der Moralisierung situativ und fluide mit verschiedenen Akteuren ausgehandelt werden. Davon ausgehend werden allgemeine Überlegungen zu Beziehungsgestaltungen und Subjektumbildungen im Zusammenhang mit Moral(-isierungen) als kontingente Orientierungen und Praktiken hergeleitet.

Published: December 2020

Трансдермальная доставка лекарственных веществ является актуальной альтернативой другим способам введения для оказания системного действия в силу целого ряда неоспоримых преимуществ, включая высокую комплаентность за счет неинвазивного, безболезненного и простого применения, снижения дозы вводимого лекарственного вещества, как следствие — снижение побочных эффектов. Однако большинство кандидатов лекарственных субстанций сталкиваются с проблемой низкой лекарственной проницаемости через кожный барьер. Одним из самых простых способов увеличения проницаемости кожи является введение в состав лекарственных препаратов усилителей проницаемости (пенетраторов). Целью настоящего обзора является рассмотрение различных типов химических усилителей проницаемости, которые были освещены в литературе последних лет. Приведена классификация усилителей проницаемости и показаны возможные механизмы их действия.
Агротехнологии разной интенсивности и урожайность зерновых культур на дерново-подзолистых почвах Верхневолжья
Authors: Борин Александр Алексеевич , Лощинина А. Э.
Published: December 2020

На типичных для большинства хозяйств Ивановской области дерново-подзолистых легкосуглинистых почвах изучены агротехнологии разной интенсивности (обработка почвы, удобрения, гербициды) под зерновые культуры в 2014 – 2019 гг. Исследования проводили в в стационарном полевом севообороте с чередованием культур: пар чистый – озимая пшеница – овес + клевер – клевер – озимая рожь – картофель – ячмень. Сравнивали 4 системы обработки почвы: отвальную (общепринятую), плоскорезную (ресурсосберегающую), комбинированную (отвально-плоскорезную) и мелкую (ресурсосберегающую). По фону обработок применяли удобрения и гербициды. Самая высокая плотность почвы установлена по мелкой обработке — 1,34 г/см3 на яровых зерновых и 1,41 г/см3 на озимых. Аналогичная закономерность выявлена при определении твердости почвы — 10,8 – 12,1 и 12,9 – 14,8 кг/см2 соответственно. Более рыхлое строение пахотного слоя отмечено при отвальной технологии обработки почвы. Выявлено увеличение запаса продуктивной влаги в пахотном слое почвы перед посевом озимых по плоскорезной обработке на 16,1 % или на 4,2 мм по сравнению с отвальной. По мелкой системе обработки почвы запас продуктивной влаги был больше на 11,5 % или на 3,0 мм по сравнению с контролем. Засоренность посевов зерновых культур превышала в 1,5 и 1,6 раза по плоскорезной и мелкой обработкам соответственно по сравнению с отвальной. Техническая эффективность от применения гербицидов составила 50,0 – 74,4 %. Применение удобрений обеспечило наиболее весомые прибавки урожая. Меньший эффект получен от применения гербицидов и систем обработки почвы.

Музейные форумы в России первых двух десятилетий ХХ в.: революция и преемственность
Authors: Гeннaдьeвич Aнaньeв Bитaлий , Буxapин Mиxaил Дмитpиeвич
Published: December 2020

В статье рассматривается история главных музейных форумов России первых двух десятилетий xx в.: так называемого Предварительного съезда (декабрь 1912 г.), Подкомиссии по вопросам музейного дела и охраны памятников в рамках заседаний Комиссии по созданию Министерства искусств (весна – лето 1917 г.) и Первой всероссийской конференции по делам музеев (февраль 1919 г.). Материалы этих форумов все еще не до конца введены в научный оборот. Их разработка дает возможность не только выявить основные линии развития музейного дела в императорской и раннесоветской России, но и встроить вопросы музейного строительства в общегуманитарный дискурс. Анализ итоговых документов всех трех музейных съездов позволяет сделать вывод о том, что на всех трех конференциях рассматривались аналогичные вопросы, и многие ответы были схожи. Основные дискуссии велись вокруг таких проблем, как формирование административных структур в музейном деле, управление музейными собраниями, их стандартизация, подготовка кадров музейных работников. С 1917 г. особую важность приобретают вопросы охраны памятников историко-культурного наследия, в то время – неотъемлемой составной части музейного дела. Важнейшим элементом Первой музейной конференции 1919 г. стало оглашение Московской декларации, в которой обосновывалась «перегруппировка» музеев.

Authors: Shalygin Mikhail , Vaschishina Anna
Published: December 2020

The article deals with the wear of the material of the wheel flange of the car when the train enters the curved section of the track. Some types of additives are presented and tested for wear in laboratory conditions. It has been found that the use of certain types of additives reduces the wear of the rail - flange friction pair. The release of diffusion-active hydrogen from the friction zone is shown. The results obtained allow us to assert that additives based on sulfo compounds contribute to a decrease in the wear of the friction surface of the ridge and lead to a decrease in the release of diffusion-active hydrogen from the friction zone.

Published: December 2020

One of the internal factors that can affect student learning outcomes is intelligence. Intelligence is the most important psychological factor in the learning process and determines the quality of student learning. So far mathematical logical intelligence is still the main benchmark for the level of intelligence of each individual and is a strong indicator in the learning achievement of students. Therefore, the profile, relationships and effects of mathematical logical intelligence need to be revealed. There have been many studies related to the relationship and influence of mathematical logical intelligence that have been carried out and published in journals and proceedings. A literature review of the results of these studies has been carried out. The conclusion that can be drawn from this literature is that the mathematical logical intelligence profile of students in Indonesia is at a moderate to good level. The relationship and influence of logical-mathematical intelligence that has been revealed is more on variables related to cognitive and affective domains, so it needs to be disclosed for variables in the psychomotor domain. Finally, the selection of intelligence measurement instruments must pay attention to the type of intelligence to be measured and the criteria for intelligence development based on age.

Objective: To evaluate the costs and cost-effectiveness of Shamiri-Digital, an online single-session intervention (SSI) for depression among Kenyan adolescents. Method: Data were drawn from a randomized clinical trial with n=103 Kenyan high school students (64% female, Mage=15.5). All students were eligible to participate, regardless of baseline depression symptomatology. We estimated delivery costs in 2020 US dollars from multiple perspectives. To account for uncertainty, we performed sensitivity analyses with different cost assumptions and definitions of effectiveness. Using number needed to treat (NNT) estimates, we also evaluated the cost required to achieve a clinically meaningful reduction in depressive symptoms.Results: In the base-case (the most realistic cost estimate), it cost US $3.57 per student to deliver Shamiri-Digital. Depending on the definition of clinically meaningful improvement, 7.1 to 9.7 students needed to receive the intervention for one student to experience a clinically meaningful improvement, which translated to a cost of US $25.35 to US $34.62 per student. Under a worst-case scenario (i.e., assuming the highest treatment cost and the strictest effectiveness definition), the cost to achieve clinically meaningful improvement was US $92.05 per student.Conclusions: Shamiri-Digital is a low-cost intervention for reducing depression symptomatology. The public health benefit of empirically supported SSIs is especially important in low-income countries, where funding for mental health care is most limited. Future research can compare the cost-effectiveness of online SSIs to higher-cost treatments and estimate the robustness of Shamiri-Digital’s effects over a longer time horizon.
Longitudinal Analysis of Short-term Changes in Relationship Conflict During COVID-19: A Risk and Resilience Perspective
Authors: Lee Shawna J. , Ward Kaitlin P. , Rodriguez Christina
Published: December 2020

This study uses a risk and resilience framework to examine short-term self-reported changes in relationship conflict early in the COVID-19 pandemic (March and April 2020). Longitudinal data from U.S. adults in a romantic relationship (N = 291) were collected via three waves of an online survey. Participants self-reported anxiety, depression, increased alcohol use, and dyadic coping since the pandemic. Relationship conflict variables included whether the participant reported that they and their partner “had disagreements related to the Coronavirus,” “had more disagreements than usual,” “had more verbal fights than usual,” and “had more physical fights than usual” in the past 2 weeks. Analyses controlled for sociodemographic characteristics as well as days spent in lockdown and employment change due to COVID-19. Results indicated that couples’ disagreement and verbal fighting scores increased from Time 1 to Time 2, but disagreements related to COVID-19 and physical fighting did not. Couples with higher levels of dyadic coping reported fewer fights and disagreements on average. However, dyadic coping did not buffer participants from increases in relationship conflict. Increased alcohol use since the pandemic was positively associated with disagreements related to COVID-19, disagreement scores, and verbal fighting scores. More days spent in lockdown was associated with increases in disagreements related to COVID-19. The conditions created by COVID-19 may contribute to worsening relationship conflict, even among couples who start with high levels of dyadic coping. Depression and alcohol use may contribute to poorer relationship quality during the pandemic. There is need for enhanced intervention and mental health supports to mitigate the potential effects of the pandemic on couples’ relationship functioning.

Urban food is a key lever for transformative change towards sustainability. While research reporting on the urban food practices in support of sustainability is increasing, the link towards transformative potential is lacking. This is because research on urban food is often place-based and contextual. This limits the applicability of insights to large-scale sustainability transformations. This paper develops a framework to synthesise insights from urban food research across multiple disciplines and explores its links to transformations research. We have developed a framework of signposts for transformative change based on processes and outcomes that are considered key for sustainable (urban) food transformations. Secondly, we classify diverse urban food practices to elevate them beyond their local, place-based contexts. We find that urban food practices carry a lot of potential to facilitate sustainability transformations. Based on that analysis, we provide insights on how urban food research can further contribute to harnessing the transformative potential of urban food practices for actionable purposes.
Efficient Conservation of the Brazilian Amazon: Estimates from a Dynamic Model
Authors: Araujo Rafael , Costa Francisco J M , Sant'Anna Marcelo
Published: December 2020

This paper estimates the Brazilian Amazon’s carbon-efficient forest cover -- i.e. when farmers internalize the social cost of carbon. We propose a dynamic discrete choice land-use model and estimate it using a panel of land use and carbon stock of 5.7 billion pixels between 2008 and 2017. The business-as-usual scenario implies an inefficient release of 42 billion tons of CO2 in the long run resulting from the deforestation of an area twice the size of France. A carbon tax that makes farmers internalize the social cost of carbon would implement the efficient allocation and generate welfare gains exceeding 1.6 trillion dollars. Responses from a carbon tax are highly convex: a carbon tax of only $10/ton would preserve 95% of the efficient carbon stock. An excise tax on cattle ranching, a second-best policy, achieves at most 87% of the first-best welfare gains.
Introduction: Whose Social Problems?
Authors: Fontaine Philippe , Pooley Jefferson
Published: December 2020

The social sciences underwent rapid development in postwar America. Problems once framed in social terms gradually became redefined as individual with regards to scope and remedy, with economics and psychology winning influence over the other social sciences. By the 1970s, both economics and psychology had spread their intellectual remits wide: psychology's concepts suffused everyday language, while economists entered a myriad of policy debates. Psychology and economics contributed to, and benefited from, a conception of society that was increasingly skeptical of social explanations and interventions. Sociology, in particular, lost intellectual and policy ground to its peers, even regarding 'social problems' that the discipline long considered its settled domain. This introduction frames the book's ten chapters, each of which explore this shift refracted through a single 'problem': the family, crime, urban concerns, education, discrimination, poverty, addiction, war, and mental health, examining the effects an increasingly individualized lens has had on the way we see these problems.
Understanding evidence-based medicine using a funnel analogy
Authors: Meira Erik
Published: December 2020

The framework of evidence-based medicine (EBM) consisting of the best available external evidence, clinical expertise, and patient values/circumstances is often described by educators and clinicians as “three legs to a stool”. Unfortunately, this analogy seems to be easily misunderstood as separate pillars equally weighted and considered independently from each other. This may be causing confusion and imperfect adoption by physical therapists.EBM may be better described as a sequential “funneling down” of information instead of as a three-legged stool. The totality of the evidence goes in at the top to be synthesized by clinical expertise into manageable concepts that can then be presented as options to the patient who is the ultimate decision maker. This may be a better way to process information into a more usable format for the support of patients.
