Constitutionalization of the Pre-trial Chamber concept
Authors: TOADER TUDOREL , SAFTA MARIETA
Published: October 2021

The Pre-trial Chamber was introduced in criminal proceedings as a new concept aimed
at eliminating the excessive length of proceedings in the trial stage, and, at the
same time, as a procedural remedy designed to meet the requirements of
legality, celerity and fairness of criminal proceedings. The rules governing it
have been repeatedly challenged by way of exceptions of unconstitutionality,
some of the exceptions being allowed, with the consequent amendment of the
legal reference texts. This study approaches the case-law of the Constitutional
Court by which the constitutionalisation of this stage of the criminal
proceedings was achieved, with the consequence of significant changes,
inviting reflection on the new configuration of the Pre-trial Chamber, from the
perspective of regulatory intent.

Authors: Petri Defina Larissa , Araujo Jacqueline , Busato Beatriz , Silva Isabela , Silva Caroline , Oliveira Beatriz , Felice Victor
Published: October 2021

Introdução: A dor é definida como uma “experiência sensorial e emocional desagradável, associada com, ou semelhantemente associada com lesão tecidual atual ou potencial”. A prevenção do surgimento ou a incapacidade relacionada à dor lombar requer o entendimento de que o grau de incapacidade gerada parece estar intimamente ligado ao contexto psicológico, social e econômico das pessoas. Justificativa: Atualmente a prevalência de dor crônica vem aumentando cada dia no Brasil e no mundo, portanto, faz-se necessário um estudo sobre o tema. Objetivos: Este estudo teve como objetivo testar a hipótese de que não há correlação entre o nível de incapacidade e os aspectos psicossociais. Métodos: Foram aplicados questionários em voluntários maiores de 18 anos de idade, com dor lombar crônica. Para avaliar a possível correlação entre os scores, foi utilizado o Coeficiente de Correlação de Spearman. Resultados: Foram avaliados um total de 156 indivíduos e 84 foram incluídos para a análise e estatística final onde foram obtidas médias e desvios-padrão bem como o valor de p. Discussão: No que diz respeito ao medo do movimento e a incapacidade, e entre cinesiofobia e percepção dos sintomas obtivemos uma correlação fraca. Por outro lado, encontramos correlação moderada para incapacidade e catastrofização e entre incapacidade e percepção dos sintomas. Conclusão: Conclui-se que as correlações encontradas foram fracas ou moderadas, porém, os valores baixos não invalidam completamente a hipótese de que há influências dos fatores psicossociais nos aspectos funcionais dos indivíduos com dor.

Published: October 2021

Background: Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were becoming predominant cause of morbidity and mortality in India. Antiplatelet agents remain as the cornerstone therapy for acute thrombotic coronary syndromes, IHD, STROKE, CHD and PCI and are essential for thromboprophylaxis. The current study was undertaken to evaluate the drug use pattern of antiplateletagents and to study the prescribing pattern, observe co-morbid conditions, social habits [alcohol/smoking], adverse events and drug-drug interactions associated with antiplatelet agents.

Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at MIMS hospital, study population of 160 inpatients from cardiology, general-medicine and neurology departments. Data was analyzed in Microsoft excel.

Results: Data records obtained from 160 patients in which 51.87% were females followed by males 48.125%. most patients with IHD and stroke were found in age group 50-70 years. Hypertension was most found co-morbidity among the patients [61.88%] followed by diabetes [34.38%], hypothyroidism [5%], epilepsy[3.75%]. Utilisation pattern of antiplatelet agents aspirin, clopidogrel were found to be[97.5%] [82.5%] respectively. patients on DAPT[81%] were highest compared to monotherapy [19%]. Patients found with social habits were 38.75% smokers, 31.25% alcoholics and 22% both alcohol and smoking.

Conclusion: The present study concludes that DAPT [aspirin+clopidogrel] was found to be superior to monotherapy, and incidence of IHD which is more common in males compared to females. Patients in the group 51-70 were most affected with stroke, IHD and with female predominance over male. Antiplatelet therapy which is clearly efficacious in reducing the incidence of ischemic events/ thromboembolic events DAPT[aspirin+ clopidogrel] was most effective and reduced ischemic events, yet have the risk of bleeding or resistance. Newer anti platelet agents such a Prasugrel and Ticagrelor can be utilised considering the bleeding risk.

Orbitally discrete coarse spaces
Authors: Protasov Igor V.
Published: October 2021

Given a coarse space (X, E), we endow X with the discrete topology and denote X ♯ = {p ∈ βG : each member P ∈ p is unbounded }. For p, q ∈ X ♯ , p||q means that there exists an entourage E ∈ E such that E[P] ∈ q for each P ∈ p. We say that (X, E) is orbitally discrete if, for every p ∈ X ♯ , the orbit p = {q ∈ X ♯ : p||q} is discrete in βG. We prove that every orbitally discrete space is almost finitary and scattered.

Geometrical properties of the space of idempotent probability measures
Authors: Kholturayev Kholsaid Fayzullayevich
Published: October 2021

Although traditional and idempotent mathematics are "parallel'', by an application of the category theory we show that objects obtained the similar rules over traditional and idempotent mathematics must not be "parallel''. At first we establish for a compact metric space X the spaces P(X) of probability measures and I(X) idempotent probability measures are homeomorphic ("parallelism''). Then we construct an example which shows that the constructions P and I form distinguished functors from each other ("parallelism'' negation). Further for a compact Hausdorff space X we establish that the hereditary normality of I3(X)\ X implies the metrizability of X.

(2) If the mapping f : (X, U) → (Y, V) is a uniformly continuous (open), then the mapping SP n Gf : (SP n GX, SP n GU) → (SP n GY, SP n GV) is also uniformly continuous (open);

(3) If the uniform space (X, U) is uniformly connected, then the uniform space (SP n GX, SP n GU) is also uniformly connected.
Como assim, cidade do interior? Antropologia, urbanidade e interioridade no Brasil
Authors: Domingues Bruno Rodrigo Carvalho , Gontijo Fabiano
Published: October 2021

No Brasil, há uma vasta e consolidada produção antropológica e sociológica sobre a relação entre o mundo rural e o contexto urbano, apontando geralmente de forma crítica para a dificuldade de se considerar esses domínios como opostos absolutos. No cotidiano, muitas pessoas falam de interior ou de uma qualidade interiorana, para designar lugares e relações sociais, para além dos domínios analíticos do rural e do urbano definidos pela produção acadêmica. Embora tenha-se dado atenção às realidades interioranas em inúmeras pesquisas, a indefinição do conceito ainda persiste. Trata-se aqui de contribuir para o aprimoramento da definição do conceito, propondo a noção de interioridade para lidar com a relação entre ruralidade e etnicidade/racialidade na conformação da urbanidade, principalmente no contexto amazônico.

Corpo e cidade no comércio senegalês em Santa Maria (RS)
Authors: De Césaro Filipe Seefeldt , Zanini Maria Catarina Chitolina
Published: October 2021

Este artigo trata da venda de rua senegalesa em Santa Maria (RS, Brasil), procurando responder à seguinte pergunta: de que forma os vendedores de rua senegaleses estabelecidos em Santa Maria lidam com a constante perspectiva de perda de mercadorias frente às ações da fiscalização municipal?. Partindo de uma pesquisa etnográfica desenvolvida entre agosto de 2016 e dezembro de 2017, procuramos perseguir dois objetivos principais: (i) descrever o aprendizado da investigação empírica na identificação e interpretação social e histórica do fenômeno considerado; (ii) descrever a relação corporal estabelecida por tais senegaleses com a materialidade urbana presente em seus espaços de trabalho irregular. Propomos que a forma prática pela qual os senegaleses concebiam tal materialidade urbana constituía o que chamamos de “saber estar”, um conjunto de conhecimentos políticos de vigilância, antecipação, evasão e precaução dispendidos a fim de evitar a apreensão de mercadorias pelos fiscais públicos.
Entre experimentos, controvérsias e invisibilidades: a constituição do transplante de órgãos como prática terapêutica
Authors: Jasper Vitor
Published: October 2021

Este artigo visa compreender o processo de constituição do transplante de órgãos como uma prática terapêutica. Partindo dos debates do campo da Antropologia da Ciência e da Técnica, destacamos alguns elementos que teriam sido fundamentais para o desenrolar deste processo, a saber: a técnica que permite ligar cirurgicamente vasos sanguíneos; os recursos farmacológicos que auxiliam no combate à rejeição do órgão transplantado e os debates acerca do conceito de morte cerebral. Estes elementos, quando agregados, culminaram na construção desta “descoberta” e permitiram a validação desta técnica. Este processo permite compreender o modo de construção de “verdades” de uma disciplina que se pretende universal e objetiva como a medicina. Por fim, argumento que esses elementos continuam agenciando o transplante e produzindo efeitos na vida das pessoas.

Minda Pengarang Melayu: Melestarikan Hubungan antar-Budaya Melayu-Jawa dalam Sulalat al-Salatin
Authors: Awang Hashim , Ismail Hashim
Published: October 2021

Kepengarangan Melayu menampilkan ciri jati diri tertentu yang dapat diikuti daripada sumber-sumber teks tradisional Melayu. Kajian yang dikemukakan sebelum ini mendapati terdapat kaedah kepengarangan yang membentuk pola dan konsep kepengarangan Melayu. Misalnya, Hashim Awang (1989) dan Muhammad Haji Salleh (1991) mengemukakan pendekatan dalam menganalisis kepengarangan Melayu. Muhammad Haji Salleh mengemukakan konsep Puitika Melayu, sebaliknya Hashim Awang mengemukakan pendekatan Pengkaedahan Melayu. Kedua-dua pendekatan didapati penting bagi mengenal pasti minda pengarang Melayu. Sebagai kajian kes, artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti dan menganalisis ciri jati diri kepengarangan Melayu di dalam Sulalat al-Salatin melalui bentuk dan puitika minda pengarang Melayu dalam melestarikan hubungan antar-budaya. Penemuan kajian turut menjawab bagaimana jati diri minda pengarang Melayu dalam menggambarkan imej antar-budaya. Adakah interaksi antar-budaya dilaksanakan atas dasar fungsional atau kepentingan hubungan kebudayaan atau kemungkinan lain yang mampu dianalisis sebagai satu bentuk amalan kepengarangan? Dengan itu juga, kajian ini turut memfokuskan hubungan antar-budaya serumpun yang dilestarikan melalui teks Sulalat al-Salatin.
Maskuliniti yang Diruntuhkan Feminiti: Satu Penelitian Stereotaip Gender dalam Novel Seri Dewi Malam Karya Affifudin Haji Omar
Authors: Wan Teh Wan Hasmah
Published: October 2021

Ideologi feminis menyumbang kepada fahaman bahawa lelaki dan perempuan dipengaruhi oleh pengalaman kehidupan yang berbeza ketika menghasilkan sesebuah karya kreatif. Feminis percaya bahawa pengarang lelaki tidak dapat menampilkan dimensi kejiwaan perempuan kerana mereka tidak pernah merasai pengalaman sebagai seorang perempuan. Ideologi seperti ini muncul sebagai tindak balas terhadap kebanyakan karya yang dihasilkan oleh pengarang lelaki yang sering mempersembahkan watak perempuan sebagai the second sex, terpinggir, bisu dan lemah dalam sistem sosial yang didominasi oleh lelaki. Walau bagaimanapun, tindakan pengarang lelaki ini tidak boleh dihukum kerana kegagalan mereka memahami dimensi perempuan yang berbeza dari diri mereka. Pencitraan perempuan daripada perspektif pengarang lelaki harus dilihat daripada konteks masyarakat dan budaya yang meletakkan stereotaip tertentu mengikut jenis kelamin. Bertitik tolak daripada fahaman tersebut, makalah ini mengupas konsep gender yang dibentuk oleh masyarakat sosial serta meneliti imej stereotaip lelaki yang dikenali sebagai gender maskulin dan imej stereotaip perempuan yang dikenali sebagai gender feminin. Hasil dapatan makalah ini mendapati pengarang novel Seri Dewi Malam telah mengubah fahaman pembaca tentang pengarang lelaki dalam mencitrakan imej perempuan dan menolak stereotaip sedia ada dengan menonjolkan imej positif yang dimiliki oleh watak Rohana sebagai gender feminin yang meruntuhkan stereotaip gender maskulin watak-watak lelaki di dalam novel.
 
The feminist ideology argues that the production of a creative work amongst male and female authors is defined by their specific life and gender experience. Feminists believe that male authors are unable to tap into the thoughts and emotional dimension of female authors because they have never experienced the life of a female. This argument emerged as a form of reaction towards the production of novels by male authors who often portray the female characters as ‘the second sex’, forsaken, tacit and weak in the male-dominated social system. Understandably, these prejudiced portrayals reflect their failure in understanding the female gender as a whole. Narrating the female from the male perspective thus has to be approached from the social and cultural context that gives rise to these stereotypes. This paper addresses the notion of gender from the perspective of society and explores the conceptual division between the male representation as ‘masculine' and female representation as ‘feminine’ in the novel Seri Dewi Malam. It argues that the author of the novel has managed to transform the female stereotypes by instilling more positive representations to the protagonist Rohana and her femininity in challenging the masculinity of male characters.

In the medical world, most challenging disease is Brain tumor. Brain tumors formed inside the brain as an abnormal cell. It is a mass of tissues which results in hormonal changes results in mortality. In the recent years, various brain tumor detection techniques are evolved. We propose, a novel brain tumor detection technique is proposed to detect tumors accurately in given brain MR image and also it classifies the given brain MR image is normal or abnormal. At first the preprocessing is performed by median filtering and segmentation by means of morphological technique. Then the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) is applied to extract the texture features. Then, the derived features are applied to classification using three classifiers such as Naïve Bayes, Multilayer perceptron, and Decision Tree C4.5 classifiers. By conducting experiments, the proposed technique is assessed and validated for performance as well as quality analysis based on accuracy, sensitivity and specificity on brain MR images. In experimental section, the performance of all three classifiers are compared in which the decision tree C4.5 algorithm provides better performance with 75% of accuracy, 79% of sensitivity and 56% of specificity.

The goal of this study is to find factors that influence the adoption of organic farming. The study’s objective necessitates the selection of an organic agricultural district. The study was conducted in Tamil Nadu’s western region on purpose with 180 farmers. The most effective elements found in the current study to determine the factors affecting the adoption of organic farming in Tamil Nadu are Organic farm perception potential (Prime factor) with Eigenvalue 3.854. Since, organic farming experience (X5), scientific approach (X12), animal ownership (X13), perceptions of organic manure utilization (X15), and perceptions of organic farming profitability (X16). With the highest factor loading of the above-mentioned factors of 0.689, 0.602, 0.206, 0.591, and 0.613, it has a stronger influence on the amount of adoption of organic farming practices in Tamil Nadu’s Western zone. As a result, farmers should be motivated and educated about the benefits of organic farming through extension and research institutes, not only to improve income but also to modify their behaviour and perceptions about new agricultural techniques.

A REAL FINALIDADE DO TRABALHO E A DESMOTIVAÇÃO DO SER HUMANO
Authors: Pereira Alves Jailsom
Published: October 2021

Este artigo analisa e aponta, sob a luz da Trilogia Analítica - idealizada pelo pioneiro Norberto Keppe, as razões pelas quais o trabalho deixou de ser uma atividade agradável ao ser humano. Como veremos, de acordo com Keppe, é no trabalho que passamos a maior parte do nosso tempo: abrimos mão de momentos com nossos familiares e amigos em prol do nosso crescimento profissional. Sendo assim, é fundamental que nosso trabalho nos proporcione motivação e, como conseqüência, sentimentos de felicidade e satisfação não apenas profissional, mas principalmente pessoal. Afinal de contas, é através dele que iremos realizar os nossos sonhos. No entanto, o que se percebe é uma insatisfação pessoal muito grande. A falta de interesse e a desmotivação do ser humano se devem ao fato de o trabalho ter se tornado deturpado em sua finalidade. Diante disso, é imprescindível que se conheça a essência do trabalho para o ser humano, de modo a modificar seu pensamento e suas atitudes rumo ao bom, ao belo e à felicidade.

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo fazer uma análise reflexiva sobre como os Direitos Humanos contribuíram para a conquista dos diretos das mulheres. Discutir sobre condicionantes sócios, político, econômicos e históricos que propiciaram às mulheres a validação de direitos previstos em lei tais como: abusos e violências de  todos os tipos, os direitos sexuais e reprodutivos, direitos sociais específicos para as mulheres, violação de sua integridade física, entre outros. A análise foi realizada a luz de documentos nacionais e internacionais que dispõem sobre direitos da mulher, iniciando à luz das constituições brasileiras, transitando por acordos internacionais e finalizando com a lei Maria da Penha, referência em conquistas de direitos para as mulheres. Recorrendo ainda a fonte de jornais, revistas, folhetos dentre outros, a fim de colher informações acerca do assunto. É incontestável o avanço da garantia de direitos alcançado pelas mulheres nos últimos séculos, mas, foi possível perceber que a legislação brasileira hoje possui vários mecanismos que dão suporte aos direitos das mulheres, no entanto se verifica que mesmo assim, o Brasil continua apresentando altos índices de violência contra a mulher e que a legislação não vem conseguindo combater e/ou acabar este tipo de crime.

A diversidade amplia os horizontes, apresenta novas possibilidades e incrementa o repertório. As corporações que estão à frente com suas iniciativas de capacitação e inclusão da diversidade notaram aumento de produtividade gerado pela colaboração e sinergia da equipe; além de flexibilidade decorrente do convívio com diferentes pessoas. Com intuito de conhecer o tema em ascensão na sociedade atualmente, realizamos revisão bibliográfica acerca do tema “Gestão de diversidade” e suas interfaces, definição, desafios e o papel da tecnologia na gestão de pessoas. Sabemos da grandeza do tema e da dificuldade de sua implementação. Vivemos em um país diverso desde sua concepção, grandioso por natureza, receptivo a migrantes e imigrantes, mas ainda com imensas dificuldades no manejo das diferenças sociais.

UM OLHAR SOBRE A CULTURA DA DESIGUALDADE ENTRE HOMENS E MULHERES
Authors: Bezerra Cavalcanti Genivaldo , Carlos da Silva Luiz
Published: October 2021

O presente estudo objetiva resgatar a trajetória histórica do tratamento dispensado às mulheres, sob o prisma das principais condicionantes, tais como relações econômicas, legislação, crenças, valores, costumes e a cultura em geral, que criaram uma superestrutura ideológica de discriminação do universo feminino. A abordagem da temática desenvolveu-se de forma teórica, com aplicação do método de abordagem indutivo e dedutivo, e do procedimento da pesquisa bibliográfica. A diferença entre homens e mulheres demonstra o machismo como atitude de prepotência dos homens relativamente às mulheres. Ideologia essa que descende principalmente do seio familiar, ou seja, esse preconceito é uma bagagem cultural, grande fator para a formação da vida social do indivíduo fortemente enraizada na cultura nordestina em especial em Pernambuco. A questão norteadora busca verificar se a mulher pernambucana, ao longo do tempo, conseguiu ocupar um espaço de igual importância e valor com os homens? Em hipótese houve avanços, mas a igualdade entre os gêneros ainda está longe de ser atingido. Esse estudo tem por objetivo compreender que o machismo continua existindo, além de discutir os conceitos de gênero, analisa as raízes, crenças, ideias e valores no meio familiar e também identifica os direitos e a identidade da mulher, que apesar de existir, é negado na sociedade. A conclusão é de que as conquistas do ponto de vista legal e social ampliaram a cidadania e emancipação das mulheres, reconhecendo-as como cidadãs plenas de direitos, contudo o desafio é materializar a igualdade de gênero, com respeito às diferenças, e superar a ideologia que naturalizou a submissão das mulheres no decorrer da história.
Fracture properties of fibre and nano reinforced composite structures
Authors:   , Ramsaroop Avinash
Published: October 2021

Interlaminar cracking or delamination is an inherent disadvantage of composite materials. In this study the fracture properties of nano and fibre-reinforced polypropylene and epoxy composite structures are examined. These structures were subjected to various tests including Single Edge Notched Bend (SENB) and Mixed Mode Bending (MMB) tests. Polypropylene nanocomposites infused with 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5 weight % nanoclays showed correspondingly increasing fracture properties. The 5 weight % specimen exhibited 161 % improvement in critical stress intensity factor (KIC) over virgin polypropylene. XRD and TEM studies show an increase in the intercalated morphology and the presence of agglomerated clay sites with an increase in clay loading. The improvement in KIC values may be attributed to the change in structure. Tests on the fibre-reinforced polypropylene composites reveal that the woven fibre structure carries 100 % greater load and exhibits 275 % lower crack propagation rate than the chopped fibre specimen. Under MMB conditions, the woven fibre structure exhibited a delamination propagation rate of 1.5 mm/min which suggests delamination growth propagates slower under Mode I dominant conditions. The woven fibre / epoxy structure shows 147 % greater tensile modulus, 63 % greater critical stress intensity factor (KIC), and 184 % lower crack propagation rate than the chopped fibre-reinforced epoxy composite. MMB tests reveal that the load carrying capability of the specimens increased as the mode-mix ratio decreased, corresponding to an increase in the Mode II component. Delamination was through fibre–matrix interface with no penetration of fibre layers. A failure envelope was developed and tested and may be used to determine the critical applied load for any mode-mix ratio. The 5 weight % nanocomposite specimen exhibited a greater load carrying capability and attained a critical stress intensity factor that was 10 % less than that of the fibre-reinforced polypropylene structure, which had three times the reinforcement weight. Further, the nanocomposite exhibited superior strain energy release rates to a material with ten times the reinforcement weight. The hybrid structure exhibited 27 % increase in tensile modulus over the conventional fibre-reinforced structure. Under MMB conditions, no significant increase in load carrying capability or strain energy release rate over the conventional composite was observed. However, the hybrid structure was able to resist delamination initiation for a longer period, and it also exhibited lower delamination propagation rates.
Methodologies for the optimization of fibre-reinforced composite structures with manufacturing uncertainties
Authors:   , Hamilton Ryan Jason
Published: October 2021

Fibre Reinforced Plastics (FRPs) have been used in many practical structural applications due to their excellent strength and weight characteristics as well as the ability for their properties to be tailored to the requirements of a given application. Thus, designing with FRPs can be extremely challenging, particularly when the number of design variables contained in the design space is large. For example, to determine the ply orientations and the material properties optimally is typically difficult without a considered approach. Optimization of composite structures with respect to the ply angles is necessary to realize the full potential of fibre-reinforced materials. Evaluating the fitness of each candidate in the design space, and selecting the most efficient can be very time consuming and costly. Structures composed of composite materials often contain components which may be modelled as rectangular plates or cylindrical shells, for example. Modelling of components such as plates can be useful as it is a means of simplifying elements of structures, and this can save time and thus cost. Variations in manufacturing processes and user environment may affect the quality and performance of a product. It is usually beneficial to account for such variances or tolerances in the design process, and in fact, sometimes it may be crucial, particularly when the effect is of consequence. The work conducted within this project focused on methodologies for optimally designing fibre-reinforced laminated composite structures with the effects of manufacturing tolerances included. For this study it is assumed that the probability of any tolerance value occurring within the tolerance band, compared with any other, is equal, and thus the techniques are aimed at designing for the worst-case scenario. This thesis thus discusses four new procedures for the optimization of composite structures with the effects of manufacturing uncertainties included.
