O discurso da insegurança: os imigrantes perigosos – uma etnografia no Bairro Veronetta (Verona, Itália, 2015-2016)
Authors: Albuquerque Fabiane Cristina
Published: December 2018

Atualmente, a maneira mais difusa de representar a imigração é aquela da metáfora de uma “invasão”, criada por diversas estruturas de poder (mídia, governos, partidos políticos). Este artigo contribui para a reflexão sobre a recepção desse discurso pelos próprios imigrantes em uma realidade delimitada, o bairro Veronetta (na cidade de Verona, Itália), escolhido entre os anos de 2015 e 2016 como campo de pesquisa para uma etnografia ao longo de quatro meses. O objetivo era entender se os imigrantes desse bairro incorporavam ou não a representação dominante sobre eles próprios ligada ao problema da segurança, da ameaça à ordem, do “roubo” dos postos de trabalho e, ainda, se viam ou não a si mesmos nessa representação, e quais as resultantes formas de resistência ou os fatores que influenciavam na reprodução de tais discursos. A escolha do campo em questão se deu através da experiência da pesquisadora como imigrante na cidade e por frequentar Veronetta que, segundo dados da Prefeitura de Verona, tem o maior índice de imigrantes por habitantes autóctones, carregando o estigma de ser um bairro “de má fama”, “perigoso” e “inseguro”.

Published: December 2018

This study examines physiological and biochemical changes in three Moroccan
varieties of young olive trees (Olea europaea L.) grown under three
different water regimes (control, moderate stress and severe stress). Leaf
relative water content (RWC), water potential (yw), transpiration rate (E),
stomatal conductance (gs), maximum quantum efficiency of PSII (Fv/Fm), the
contents of total chlorophyll (TCC), proline (ProC) and soluble sugars (SSC)
were measured at the flowering stage during three growing seasons (2015,
2016 and 2017). ANOVA analyses showed that the effect of the water regime
was predominant in all of the examined parameters, except for Fv/Fm, which
was under the effect of both water regime and growing season. Impacts of
variety and interactions were of lesser magnitude. Water deficit reduced E,
yw and gs by 25%, while its effect on RWC and Fv/Fm was a decrease of about
7%; however, increases in SSC and ProC were more than 10%. Among the growing
seasons, 2015 flowering displayed the lowest values for RWC, yw, E, gs, TCC
and Fv/Fm, and the highest for ProC and SSC. Among plant varieties, no
significant differences were observed. The three principal component (PC)
axes accounted for 91% of total variance. PC1 was better explained by the
water regime, while the growing season fitted PC3 variability. Correlation
studies highlighted significant associations between most parameters.
Positive relationships were found between RWC, yw, E, gs, Fv/Fm and TCC,
while all of these parameters were negatively linked to ProC and SSC.
Time and pattern of the fusion of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis in patients with skeletal Class I and Class III malocclusion
Authors: Yang Jae-Hee , Cha Bong-Kuen , Choi Dong-Soon , Park Jae Hyun , Jang Insan
Published: December 2018

Objectives:

To investigate the time and pattern of fusion of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis in patients with skeletal Class I and Class III malocclusion using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Materials and Methods:

A total of 262 CBCT images were collected: 140 skeletal Class I (0° < ANB < 4°; 71 males, 69 females) and 122 skeletal Class III (ANB ≤ 0°; 61 males and 61 females). The fusion stages were identified using CBCT images of a six-stage system defined by the appearance of osseous cores and ossifying vestige in the synchondrosis. The age distributions of each stage and the pattern of fusion were evaluated.

Results:

The stages of fusion progressed with increasing age (P < .05, r = .824), and the age distributions in the female groups were generally 1 to 3 years younger than those in the male groups. However, no significant differences were observed between the skeletal Class I and Class III groups regarding the time of ossification of the synchondrosis. The osseous cores appeared most frequently in the supero-center part, followed by the mid-center part of the synchondrosis.

Conclusions:

The time and pattern of fusion of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis are not apparently different between patients with Class I malocclusion and those with Class III malocclusion. The osseous cores appear frequently in the supero-center and mid-center of the synchondrosis with various patterns before the end of the pubertal growth spurt period.
Finite element analysis of stresses on adjacent teeth during the traction of palatally impacted canines
Authors: Zeno Kinan G. , El-Mohtar Samah J. , Mustapha Samir , Ghafari Joseph G.
Published: December 2018

Objective:

To evaluate stresses on maxillary teeth during alignment of a palatally impacted canine (PIC) under different loading conditions with forces applied in vertical and buccal directions.

Materials and Methods:

A three-dimensional finite element model of the maxilla was developed from a cone beam computed tomographic scan of a patient with a left PIC. Traction was simulated under different setups: (1) palatal spring extending from a transpalatal bar (TPB) anchored on the first molars (M1) and alternatively combined with different archwires (0.016 × 0.022-inch; 0.018 × 0.025-inch) with and without engaging second molars and (2) a buccal force against 0.018-inch, 0.016 × 0.022-inch, and 0.018 × 0.025-inch archwires with and without engaging the left lateral incisor (I2).

Results:

Without fixed appliances, stresses were assumed by M1; with fixed appliances, stresses were distributed on all teeth, decreasing mesially toward the midline. Direct buccal pull exerted most stress on neighboring I2 (19–20% with different wire sizes) and first premolar (12–17%), decreasing distally, along a similar pattern with different archwire sizes. When I2 was bypassed, stresses on adjacent teeth increased only by 3–6%. Higher stresses occurred with the lighter round wire.

Conclusions:

This first research on stresses on adjacent teeth during PIC traction provided needed quantitative data on the pattern of stress generation, suggesting the following clinical implications: use of distal-vertical pull from posterior anchorage (TPB) as initial movement and when using a buccal force, bypassing the lateral incisor and using heavier wires that would minimize side effects.
Línguas, mediações e aprendizagens à luz do Quadro Europeu Comum de Competência Digital

Published: December 2018

There being a Common European Framework of Reference for Languages that regulates learning, teaching and evaluation of this domain, we will discuss its dual association to the CEFR for Digital Competence, which we understand as dialogic since Digital Technologies are part of the teaching of any language, let alone other domains. Our approach will be provocative in that, taking into account what has been called soft skills, it will show parallels that each of the teachers contribute to learning, teaching and evaluation, with implications for teacher training and teachers’ respective responsibilities in the impacts of their activity in the future of their students.

Este artigo apresenta as mudanças que ocorreram na minha prática de ensino no ensino superior, com base na reconfiguração de licenciaturas aquando do Processo de Bolonha. Passando de um modelo de aulas de línguas em presencial para um modelo que dá mais autonomia aos alunos, vejo-me confrontada com uma nova missão, a de «tutora». Concebi esta nova missão como um complemento aos cursos, um sistema de orientação para levar os alunos a autorregularem-se na sua aprendizagem da língua francesa. No âmbito da minha tese de doutoramento, criei um dispositivo inovador, combinando um modelo não-formal de aprendizagem autodirigida com o novo paradigma da aprendizagem iniciado.
Os 3C’s no Ensino por Tarefas: Comunicação; Colaboração; Criatividade
Authors:   Agrupamento de Escolas Dr. Alberto Iria, Tardão Lúcia , Teixeira Manuela
Published: December 2018

Throughout the ages, many have been the pedagogical and methodological tendencies that arise in the scope of foreign language teaching. The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages contains a chapter called «Role of tasks and activities» (p. 147) and in the Portuguese Basic English Program «it is suggested that the organization of learning processes is done through tasks» (p. 62). Not neglecting these two pillars of teaching activity, it is up to the foreign language teacher to understand what it is, how it works, what are the advantages of teaching using tasks in his or her class and, above all, how to articulate these principles with curricular programs. The school should prepare students for real-life situations, not only by teaching them concepts, but also by giving them the tools to learn how to learn, especially in projects that depend on the collaboration of all. At European level, Erasmus projects, the eTwinning and Microsoft Educators Community platforms are an example of good practice and privileged spaces for collaboration and sharing between teachers and students of various nationalities. In this presentation, we intend to demonstrate how these projects promote the application of the principles based on TBLT (Task Based Language Teaching) methodology, more specifically, regarding the articulation and application of the 3C's (Communication, Collaboration and Creativity) through this methodology. We will present examples of projects carried out by the students of the Basic School E.B. 2/3 Dr. Alberto Iria, in articulation with European and International partners.
To infinity and beyond. Reading in 21st century English language teaching
Authors:   Universidade do Porto, Hurst Nicolas
Published: December 2018

A leitura deveria proporcionar a oportunidade a estudantes de línguas estrangeiras de viajar pelo nosso mundo fora (e mais além). No entanto, os textos dos manuais apresentam pouca variedade e as tarefas pós-leitura focam-se, na maior parte das vezes, na forma da linguagem em vez do significado do texto. A escolha dos textos e das tarefas subsequentes devem estar dependentes do que os estudantes querem ler e precisam de aprender, algo que é raramente encontrado em manuais produzidos em Portugal. A atual abordagem adotada para a leitura nas aulas de Inglês exige uma reestruturação radical.

Published: December 2018

Apesar do número crescente de documentos oficiais que existem dispersos no mercado sob a forma de manuais de minutas, compilações de textos na área jurídica, os trabalhos sistemáticos e sistematizados como ferramenta tanto didática, como recurso ou ferramenta para juristas, estudantes de língua para fins específicos e outros relacionados com a área jurídica são escassos. As fontes a que tivemos acesso refletem um tipo de organização de textos que tiveram em consideração a relação entre a unidade terminológica, o texto em que ocorre e o enquadramento jurídico no sistema legislativo correspondente. A investigação que levamos a cabo tem como objetivo principal a criação de uma base de dados textual – Juridocs – como recurso didático para o ensino da língua jurídica. Esta ferramenta permite estabelecer uma relação sistemática entre os sistemas conceptuais, as terminologias e a tipologia de textos em várias línguas e com vários sistemas jurídicos.

O objetivo deste artigo é aumentar a consciencialização sobre o multitransculturalismo nas salas de aula de línguas. Nos contextos de EFL (Inglês língua estrangeira), a cultura-alvo é constantemente redefinida e enriquecida com novas formas de ver e pensar, retratadas pelos alunos de várias línguas maternas (pluri-L1). Acreditamos que os professores em formação inicial e contínua precisam duma preparação especial nessas questões. É por isso que sentimos a necessidade de desenvolver uma abordagem multifacetada para uma compreensão intercultural das culturas em todo o mundo. Para convocar essa prática na sala de aula, trabalhámos com contos populares multitransculturais, de modo a que os alunos aprendam como interagir e entender as pessoas que são étnica, racial e culturalmente diferentes de si mesmas.

Sinfoniaorkesteri-instituution kotoistaminen Suomessa
Authors: Heikkinen Olli
Published: December 2018

Vaikka kansallista tai paikallista historiaa kirjoitettaessa usein korostetaan kehityksen omaperäisyyttä ja toimijoiden innovatiivisuutta, ongelmia ratkotaan ja päätöksiä tehdään silmiinpistävän samankaltaisesti ympäri maailmaa. Kansalliset ja paikalliset toimijat omaksuvat globaalit ideat, mallit ja instituutiot ja sovittavat ne omiin intresseihinsä sekä paikallisiin olosuhteisiin ja resursseihin. Uusinstitutionalismissa tästä prosessista käytetään termiä ”kotoistaminen” (domestication). Artikkelissani tutkin, miten sinfoniaorkesteri-instituutio levisi Suomeen ja miten se kotoistettiin paikallisiin olosuhteisiin Porissa, Turussa ja Helsingissä. Erityistä huomiota kiinnitän verkostoihin, joiden välityksellä uudet ideat ja mallit välittyivät, sekä niihin diskursseihin, joita kotoistamisprosessin yhteydessä paikallisesti ja kansallisesti käytiin.

Tutkimuksessa kuvattiin läheisen roolia ja tuen tarvetta iäkkään potilaan kotiutuessa arviointi- ja kuntoutusosastolta. Tavoitteena oli ymmärtää kotiutumisprosessia läheisen näkökulmasta sekä muodostaa kuvaus, jossa on tyypitelty läheisen erilaiset roolit, niihin nivoutuvat tekijät ja tuen tarpeet. Tutkimuksessa sovellettiin metodologista triangulaatiota. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin kotiutuvien henkilöiden nimeämiltä läheisiltä (n=14) teemahaastattelulla ja kyselyllä (COPE-indeksi, Carers of Older People in Europe) viidellä kuntoutusosastolla Etelä-Suomessa. Teemahaastatteluaineisto analysoitiin induktiivisella sisällönanalyysillä, ja kyselyn(COPE-indeksin) vastauksia tarkasteltiin vastausvaihtoehtojen lukumäärien sekä kolmella osa-alueella laskettujen pistekeskiarvojen pohjalta. Tutkimuksen tuloksena tuotettiin kuvaus, jossa läheisen rooli jakautui neljään tehtävään: arjen auttaja, edunvalvoja, tukija ja vastuunkantaja. Moni tutkimukseen osallistuneista kokitarvitsevansa tukea näihin tehtäviin. Rooleissa toimimiseen nivoutuivat läheisen oma elämä, saatu tuki ja roolin mielekkyys. Läheisen rooliin liittyviä tuen tarpeita olivat tuki arjen tehtävissä, roolissa toimimisen tuki sekä rohkaiseva ja sosiaalinen tuki. Tulokset osoittavat läheisen roolin moniulotteisuutta. Jatkotutkimusta tarvitaanselvittämään läheisen roolien merkitystä ja painotusta kehitettäessä iäkkäiden ihmisten ja heidän läheistensä palveluita.

Published: December 2018

Sähköiset omahoitopalvelut tarjoavat kansalaisille välineitä seurata hyvinvointiaan, ehkäistä sairauksien pahenemista ja nopeuttaa tarkoituksenmukaiseen hoitoon pääsyä. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli 2017 toteutetun kyselyn avulla kartoittaa, kuinka hyvin kansalaiset tuntevat ja miten halukkaita he ovat käyttämään sähköisiä terveyspalveluja sekä millaisia näkemyksiä heillä on sähköisistä omahoitopalveluista. Kyselyyn vastasi 165 henkilöä. Vastaajat olivat iältään 19–85-vuotiaita. 56–85-vuotiaita oli 28 %, naisia 82 % ja kaupungin työntekijöitä 52 %. Vastaajat tunsivat sähköisiä terveyspalveluja hyvin. Vähintään puolet vastaajista käyttäisi todennäköisesti kuvattuja sähköisiä omahoitopalveluja, ja noin puolet arvioi niiden vaikuttavan positiivisestiomasta hyvinvoinnistaan huolehtimiseen. Sähköisten omahoitopalvelujen käyttöön tulisi saada tukea verkossa ja henkilökohtaisesti. Eniten koettiin huolta tietoturvasta ja lisäksi pelättiin kasvokkain tapahtuvien palvelujen vähenemistä. Eriikäisten vastaajien näkemykset eivät eronneet toisistaan merkitsevästi. Sähköisiä terveyspalveluja kannattaa suunnitella myös ikääntyville. Tutkimuksen tulokset toimivat keskustelun herättäjinä ja hyödyttävät palvelujen kehittämisessä, mutta niitä ei suoraan voida yleistää koskemaan kaikkia ikääntyneitä tai kansalaisia yleensä.

Published: December 2018

To improve the quality of patient care, the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing (IPPH) developed and implemented into the clinical practice in 2009 the National Network of Teleaudiology (NNT). NNT is a specialized network allowing the use of the internet and modern IT tools to provide medical care, rehabilitation and technical support for patients visiting a one of the affiliated policlinics of the Institute. This was the basis for the development and implementation of the implant fitting procedure, using modern internet and telediagnostic technologies - telefiting. This procedure, implemented in several centers throughout the country and aboard, solves the growing need for constant specialist care, check-ups and periodic reviews of speech processors. Clinical engineers, through teleconferencing links, can carry out the whole process of assessing and fitting the cochlear implant assisted by auxiliary staff of the cooperating center.

Material of this study consisted of 316 cochlear implant users scheduled for telefitting in one of 8 centers selected for this study. Each patient underwent a teleconsultation procedure. After telefitting the patient was presented with a questionnaire consisting of questions relating to the quality and time effectiveness of telefitting and the preparation process, assessment of the ease of contact with the audiologist, the sense of security and calm during the session, and an overall assessment of its usefulness as an alternative to different kinds of standard visits.

Significantly smaller distances that have to be overcome by patients to cooperating centers have significantly reduced the travel time. The benefits of the telefitting program include the results of surveys, the satisfaction of which was reported by majority of them.
How to improve communication using technology in emergency medical services? A case study from Finland
Authors: Haverinen Jari , Kangas Maarit , Raatiniemi Lasse , Martikainen Matti , Reponen Jarmo
Published: December 2018

The field of emergency medical services (EMS) is a challenging environment for ensuring fluent information exchange between stakeholders because several different kinds of organizations are involved in EMS missions. Solutions for information and communication technology can vary significantly depending on the organization. This study aims to identify current communication bottlenecks between EMS professionals, understand the technological challenges behind them, and describe technologies that can improve EMS communication in the future.

Information for the study about current EMS processes, technologies, and technology needs was collected from EMS professionals during three workshops, five personal interviews, and one email questionnaire. All surveyed health care professionals were working in the county of Northern Ostrobothnia. Information about proposed technologies for EMS was obtained from literature and interviews with five technology companies.

The principal problem in EMS communication is scattered health data. This leads to a lack of common situational awareness for professionals and incomplete medical histories for patients. The reasons behind those problems are different information systems which do not communicate with each other and the lack of a common electronic patient care record (ePCR) for use by stakeholders. Personal health measurements, sensors, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence will create opportunities for further improving the flow of communication in EMS, provided those tools can be integrated into decision-making systems.

Published: December 2018

Health care professionals are in the front line to identify signals of life issues. In Finnish school healthcare 25% of the children are raising concern from the professional’s perspective. In oral health care, ill oral health may be an indicator of issues and vice versa. However, the early inter-professional cross-talk is minimal. The aim of this project was to recognize the patients that would raise concern among oral health care professionals. Holistic interventions of these patients would secondarily improve oral health. Targeting the group with heaviest disease and social burden, the morbidity would cease in the total population.

The staff of Kuopio public oral health care was trained for early patient recognition and referral to an oral health intervention clinic. The clinic focused on speaking out the patient’s life situation and individual oral health education. If needed, a multi-professional primary healthcare support team was gathered. With the most complex problems, the family services and child protection services were consulted.

In 2017 and 2018 there were 264 and 344 recognized concerning individuals. Through tailored intervention strategies, the target group was able to increase brushing, lower the plague index and improve self-reported oral health (SOH). Total population indicators (decayed-missing-filled index, DMFT and invasive treatment) showed decreasing trends but have too many background variables for reliable effect assessment.

Oral health can play an integral role in recognizing compromised individuals. The operational changes created during the project will act as platform for future digital tools.

Published: December 2018

The current mathematics education is the fruit of past educational debates. First, we examine the past attempts to change the way mathematics is being taught and argue that education is always based on a traditional paradigm. Next try to explain the emergence of a new paradigm that grew out of a combination of theories from cognitive psychology, awareness of the importance of culture for learning, and the belief that students must get meaningful learning. This article discusses theories about paradigms that underlie the learning theory in general education, especially mathematics education. These paradigms include behaviourism, constructivism, critical theory, cognition theory. We discuss some of the implications of this reform related to how mathematics educators might work with math teachers.

The global development of the 21st century demanding students ability to be more critical, analytical and creative, so the school have a role as an instrument to shape that personality. School literacy movement is one effort to answer the demands. Through literacy students are conditioned to intelligently analyze, construct mindsets, which ultimately generate critical and dignified behaviors in the deal with the times changing. Student behavior is formed through the conditioning of school environments involving multiple parties, including guidance and counseling teachers. The guidance and counseling teacher should be able to translate the needs of the students to develop literacy skills through programs designed for students. Guidance and counseling teachers are able to integrated student literacy development procedures in classroom learning with services provided to students, so that the development of this literacy is integrated with guidance and counseling services.

Parenting is a process in the family, the interaction of parents and children. The family is where a child is born, the first place a child gets an education, consisting of father, mother and child. The family also became the main central place of character education formation of children. Family education is the fundamental or foundation of subsequent children's education. In the society of the nobility and in general people Sasak known to have the motto of Lomboq Mirah Sasak Adi meaning Lomboq straight meaning. Mirah is a true gem, an elegant precious metal that is very expensive. Sasak comes from sa'sa 'sa'i, sopo, seke' which means one. Adi means something that is very high value. Therefore, the true (mule jati) "straight road" is a very noble path, a very high value, as the only path to be followed by the sasak. and the road is a straight path (siratulmustakim) commanded by Allah SWT contained in the Qur'an and Al Hadith. In the process of learning guidance and counseling teachers are teachers who are tasked to provide guidance to students who are problematic and who are not problematic if considered important by the teacher guidance and counseling, therefore the role of teachers guidance and counseling in the learning process is needed, because learners have problems are diverse

Sustainable intensification of agricultural production: a review of four soil amendments
Authors: Keiblinger Katharina Maria , Kral Rosana Maria
Published: December 2018

Dwindling natural resources, growing population pressure, climate change, and degraded soils threaten agricultural production. In order to feed the growing world population, we have to develop strategies to sustainably intensify current agricultural production while reducing the adverse effects of agriculture. Currently, a number of amendments have come into focus for improving structure and fertility of soils. Zeolites, biochar (BC), lime, and nitrification inhibitors (NIs) are reviewed for their properties. Zeolites and BC share many characteristics, such as a high cation exchange capacity (CEC), high specific surface area, and high porosity. Lime, on the other hand, works above all through its buffering capacity and can improve aggregate stability. Although the latter amendments change soil physicochemical characteristics, NIs do not act on soil properties but constrain a chemical/enzymatic reaction directly. These amendments are potential strategies to mitigate ongoing soil degradation and to secure soil fertility, under the global challenges. While the ecological effects of these soil amendments are studied intensively, the extent to which they can contribute to sustainable intensification is not fully explored. We want to contribute to the debate by providing an overview that seeks to integrate ecological evidence with the agronomic perspective.
Cyanogenese in Futterpflanzen und Auswirkungen in der Wiederkäuerernährung
Authors: Rempt Katharina , Gierus Martin
Published: December 2018

Die Vielfalt an Verbindungen zeichnet die sekundären Pflanzeninhaltsstoffe aus. Cyanogene Glykoside entstehen aus Aminosäuren und stellen in Pflanzen eine Speicherform für Blausäure dar. Sie sind ungiftig, solange sie nicht mit den dementsprechenden spaltenden Enzymen in Kontakt kommen. Die Funktion der cyanogenen Glykoside wurde viel diskutiert, für mehrere Pflanzenarten wurde die Hypothese eines Abwehrmechanismus anerkannt. Sorghum wird aufgrund ihres Vertretungscharakters für Mais in Europa angebaut, besonders bei zunehmender Sommertrockenheit und zur Sicherung einer vielfältigen Fruchtfolge in einigen Gebieten. Weißklee (Trifolium repens) stellt trotz seiner sortenspezifisch schwankenden cyanogenen Glykosidgehalte eine bedeutende Futterpflanze dar. Aufgrund dessen wurde die Cyanogenese bei Weißklee intensiv untersucht, zwei Gene (Ac und Li) sind für die Cyanogenese verantwortlich. Die durch die Pflanzenzüchtung zur Verfügung stehenden Weißkleesorten mit niedrigen cyanogenen Glykosidgehalten werden in der Praxis bevorzugt genutzt.

Aufgrund des hohen pH-Wertes im Pansen reagieren Wiederkäuer auf cyanogene Glykoside sehr empfindlich. Weißklee wird in der Regel für Grünlandflächen auf Anteile von 20–30 % begrenzt, um zu hohen Rohproteingehalten im Herbst vorzubeugen. Die Nutzung der Sorghum-Hirsen als Grün- und Kornfutter wurde durch die Züchtung und Verwendung der Hybridlinien optimiert. Landwirte, die sich der Problematik durch cyanogene Glykoside bewusst sind, setzen keine hoch cyanogenen Sorten ein.
On the linear stability of some finite difference schemes for nonlinear reaction-diffusion models of chemical reaction networks
Authors: Muyinda Nathan , De Baets Bernard , Rao Shodhan
Published: December 2018

We identify sufficient conditions for the stability of some well-known finite difference schemes for the solution of the multivariable reaction-diffusion equations that model chemical reaction networks. Since the equations are mainly nonlinear, these conditions are obtained through local linearization. A recurrent condition is that the Jacobian matrix of the reaction part evaluated at some positive unknown solution is either D-semi-stable or semi-stable. We demonstrate that for a single reversible chemical reaction whose kinetics are monotone, the Jacobian matrix is D-semi-stable and therefore such schemes are guaranteed to work well.
On Deck Oil Spill Clean-Up Materials – Solution for Engine Rooms
Authors: Ubowska Agnieszka , Jowtuch Katarzyna
Published: December 2018

The presence of flammable substances nearby hot surfaces in the engine rooms pose a fire hazard. Therefore the quick and effective removal of oil spills from these areas is of utmost importance. The simplest way is to use sorbent materials having the capacity to absorb oil substances. Oil sorbents comprise of a wide range of organic, inorganic and synthetic products. The choice of form and type of sorbent material depends on the intended application: type of spill, its size and location. The article describes the results of studies aimed to compare the absorbency of selected natural and synthetic sorbents in the context of their application in case of an oil spill in the engine room. Although the natural sorbents should not be used in water, because they absorb it and can in addition contaminate the seabed, they can be used to remove oil spills on the ship. After used they can be disposed on the ship by burning.

The aim of European Union policy is to implement the principles of sustainable development, in which particularly important are: environmental protection and rational management of resources. Major role is given to waste management and appropriate prioritization of activities in this area. The main goal of waste management is prevention, minimization and elimination of wastes “at source”, as well as encouraging efficient use of natural resources through recovery and recycling of waste. Storage process should be minimalized over the years until the complete elimination. As shown by statistics data, unfortunately in Poland, the process is very slow. The analysis of the data provided by the Central Statistical Office (CSO) over the last thirteen years shows a significant increase in the level of recovery and recycling of municipal waste. All together it was 11.654 million Mg of municipal waste collected in 2016. Wastes selected from municipal waste (paper, glass, plastics, metals) accounted for only 25.2% (2.942 million Mg), and mixed waste accounted for 74.8% (8.712 million Mg). In 2016 the recycling rate was 27.83%, composting or fermentation – 16.22%, 19.44% of municipal wastes are subjected thermal transformation and the storage level is 36.51%. Landfilling is still the most common form of municipal waste disposal.
