An Integrated Hydrological-CFD Model for Estimating Bacterial Levels in Stormwater Ponds
Authors: Allafchi Farzam , Valeo Caterina , He Jianxun , Neumann Norman F.
Published: May 2019

A hydrological model was integrated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to determine bacteria levels distributed throughout the Inverness stormwater pond in Calgary, Alberta. The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) curve number model was used as the basis of the hydrological model to generate flow rates from the watershed draining into the pond. These flow rates were then used as input for the CFD model simulations that solved the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with k-ɛ turbulence model. E. coli, the most commonly used fecal indicator bacteria for water quality research, was represented in the model by passive scalars with different decay rates for free bacteria and attached bacteria. Results show good agreement with measured data in each stage of the simulations. The middle of the west wing of the pond was found to be the best spot for extracting water for reuse because it had the lowest level of bacteria both during and after storm events. In addition, only one of the four sediment forebays was found efficient in trapping bacteria.
Assessment of Hydrologic Alteration Metrics for Detecting Urbanization Impacts
Authors: McDaniel Reid D. , O’Donnell Frances C.
Published: May 2019

Urbanization is increasing rapidly and has the potential to alter the hydrologic cycle. It is uncertain if hydrologic alteration metrics developed for large-scale analyses detect the impacts of urbanization. This study tests the ability of two such methods, Indicators of Hydrologic Alteration (IHA) and streamflow signatures, to detect the effects of urbanization in two watersheds in the southeastern U.S.A. A hydrologic model (HEC-HMS) was used to simulate flows in ungauged upstream tributaries to determine if analysis of flow from a large gauged watershed detects urbanization effects on upstream tributaries. IHA analysis detected trends in time in the watersheds, but the results were the opposite of what would be expected as urbanization increased minimum flows, decreased maximum flows, and decreased flashiness based on the trend in time and comparison with an undeveloped watershed. IHA parameters were more sensitive to urbanization than streamflow signatures. Subcatchments that transitioned from low to moderate or high levels of urbanization had greater levels of hydrologic alteration than was detected at the watershed outlet. Analyses of stream gauge network data may underestimate the importance of urbanization as a watershed characteristic due to scale issues, the variable effects of water management, and the dynamic nature of urbanization.
Investigation of Runoff and Sediment Yields Under Different Crop and Tillage Conditions by Field Artificial Rainfall Experiments
Authors: Guo Mengjing , Zhang Tiegang , Li Zhanbin , Xu Guoce
Published: May 2019

Crop types and tillage measures on slopes have significant impacts on regional water and soil conservation. In this study, we investigated the influences of multiple crop types and tillage measures on water and sediment yields based on plot-scale experiments under artificial rainfall. The objective of the study is to find the best combination of crop type and tillage measure from the perspective of reducing soil erosion. We performed artificial rainfall experiments under eight slope treatments, which are the bare-land (BL, as a reference), peanut monoculture (PL), corn monoculture (CL), bare land (upper slope) mixed with peanut monoculture (lower slope) (BP), corn and peanut intercropping (TCP), corn and soybean intercropping (TCS), downslope ridge cultivation (BS) slope, and straw-mulched (SC), respectively. Under similar rainfall intensity and initial soil moisture conditions, these treatments except for BS efficiently reduced sediment yield compared to the BL slope. In comparison, the most effective slope treatment to reduce soil erosion is TCP, followed by PL and TCS. The amount of sediment yielded from the three treatments accounts for 0.4%, 2.0%, and 3.3% of the sediment yielded from BL. We recommend the three slope treatments as the preferred choices among eight treatments. Also, the lower sediment yield in the three slope treatments benefits from their higher vegetation coverage. Vegetation coverage plays a greater role in regulating sediment yield than the surface runoff at a plot scale.

GP speciality training in areas of deprivation: factors influencing engagement. A qualitative study
Authors: McCallum Marianne , MacDonald Sara , McKay John
Published: May 2019

Background

GP training practices are less likely to be situated in areas of deprivation; little is known about GP views of postgraduate training in such areas.

Aim

To explore the views of GPs working in deprived areas about GP speciality training (GPST).

Design & setting

Qualitative in-depth interviews with GPs working in practices in deprived areas in Scotland.

Method

Ten in-depth interviews were conducted with GPs in training and non-training practices, to explore views on training. Interviews were audiotaped and transcribed verbatim, and inductive thematic analysis was undertaken.

Results

The importance of producing ‘well-rounded’ GPs who are able to work in a variety of environments was highlighted. Trainees need exposure to the specific challenges of deprived contexts (such as early multimorbidity, child protection, and addiction) and the benefit of this for trainees was thought to be invaluable. GPs identified many perceived barriers and benefits to training, some generic but some — such as inspiring the next generation (benefit) or overwhelming workload (barrier) — may be more relevant in areas of high deprivation. Overwhelming workload was the main reason for not becoming a training practice, though some would consider it if supported to develop a training culture. All the GPs, including non-trainers, were involved in optional activities which were felt to be important for resilience.

Conclusion

GPs in areas of deprivation highlighted specific skills that could be gained by undertaking at least a part placement in deprived areas, with different skills likely to be gained from affluent areas. National education bodies should consider GP training rotations ensure a variety of training environments.
A fluid inclusion investigation of cenomanian quartz geodes in Israel : a possible heliothermal effect
Authors: Eilon Gad , Lang Barbu , Starinsky Avraham , Touret Jacques
Published: May 2019

Cauliflower-like quartz geodes occur in Israel in a narrow stratigraphic interval of carbonate rocks of Lower Cenomanian age. The geodes consist of an outer rim of chalcedony, an intermediate zone of milky, anhydrite-bearing quartz and a drusy quartz central zone. Homogenization temperatures (Th) in primary aqueous fluid inclusions can reach 170 °C, most frequent measurements being between 90° and 120 °C. The salinity is up to 12 % wt NaCl equiv. The relatively high Th, which cannot be explained either by circulating hydrothermal solutions or by temperature increase during burial, are interpreted as being the result of heliothermal processes (surface fluid temperature increase, due to absorption of solar radiation). High temperatures and salinities in the bottom of shallow basins resulted, firstly, in the deposition of anhydrite, than in its replacement by silica. This process is controlled by the inverse dépendance on temperature of silica and anhydrite solubilities.
Convection naturelle dans les structures géologiques poreuses : deux exemples numériques
Authors: Bernard Dominique
Published: May 2019

La convection naturelle au sein des structures géologiques poreuses est un mode de transfert pouvant avoir des effets importants sur des phénomènes tels que la diagenèse minérale ou la migration des hydrocarbures. Après avoir rappelé un certain nombre de résultats généraux concernant la convection naturelle en milieu poreux, nous présentons un modèle numérique 2D utilisant la méthode des éléments finis. Ce programme a été développé pour étudier ce type de transfert de chaleur et de masse dans les structures poreuses. L'exemple simple de la couche poreuse inclinée et le cas réel simplifié du champ d'Alwyn (Mer du Nord) illustrent la complexité des écoulements pouvant se produire ainsi que les possibilités offertes par le recours à la simulation numérique. Les premiers résultats montrent qu'il peut être nécessaire de prendre en compte explicitement le caractère tridimensionnel des phénomènes.
Makna Ragi Dalam Ajaran Tuhan Yesus tentang Kewaspadaan
Authors: Santo Joseph Christ
Published: May 2019

Some of the teachings of the Lord Jesus are in the form of a straightforward sentence and some are figurative. The use of the word "leaven" in the few sentences that the Lord Jesus says about vigilance is in the figurative sense. That is why it is necessary to find the word meaning according to the principles of exegesis.The exegetical method used involves establishing the text of the text to be extrapolated, ie Matthew 16: 6, analysis of sentence structure and composing of translations, analysis of the context of the use of yeast at the time, excavation of theological points based on the meaning of words and wording in sentences, and the application of exegesis to the contemporary context.The conclusion of this study is, Jesus uses the term yeast because yeast is something commonly used in society, so its symbolic meaning is easily drawn according to what is understood by society. Yeast depicts the doctrine, and there is a common characteristic of yeast and the characteristics of doctrine; the decay caused by a small amount of yeast does not appear to be the process but the real change, as well as quite a bit of unhealthy teaching that is allowed to contaminate, has the potential to ruin the entire character of a person. The doctrine to watch out for is the preoccupation with the more outward than the spiritual, including arrogance, hypocrisy, and worldly worldview.Keywords : leaven, yeast, doctrine, alert, Farisi, Saduki AbstrakAjaran Tuhan Yesus ada yang berbentuk kalimat lugas dan ada yang kiasan. Penggunaan kata “ragi” dalam beberapa kalimat yang disampaikan Tuhan Yesus tentang kewaspadaan adalah dalam makna kiasan. Itu sebabnya perlu dicari makna kata tersebut sesuai prinsip-prinsip eksegesis.Metode eksegesis yang digunakan meliputi penetapan teks Alkitab yang akan dieksegesis, yaitu Matius 16:6, analisis struktur kalimat dan menyusun terjemahan, analisis konteks penggunaan ragi pada masa itu, penggalian pokok-pokok teologis berdasarkan arti kata dan susunan kata dalam kalimat, dan penerapan eksegesis kepada konteks masa kini.Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah, Yesus menggunakan istilah ragi karena ragi adalah sesuatu yang umum digunakan dalam masyarakat, sehingga arti simboliknya dengan mudah ditarik berdasarkan apa yang dipahami oleh masyarakat. Ragi menggambarkan ajaran, dan ada kesamaan karakteristik ragi dan karakteristik ajaran; pembusukan yang disebabkan oleh sejumlah kecil ragi tidak nampak prosesnya namun nyata perubahannya, demikian pula cukup sedikit ajaran yang tidak sehat yang dibiarkan mengkontaminasi memiliki potensi untuk merusak seluruh karakter seseorang. Ajaran yang harus diwaspadai adalah pengutamaan terhadap hal-hal yang lahiriah lebih daripada yang rohani, termasuk di dalamnya keangkuhan, kemunafikan, dan pandangan duniawi.Kata kunci: ragi, khamir, ajaran, waspada, Farisi, Saduki.

Mengimplementasikan Pelayanan Yesus Dalam Konteks Misi Masa Kini Menurut Injil Sinoptik
Authors: Stevanus Kalis
Published: May 2019

Gereja sebagai bagian dari masyarakat juga terpanggil untuk terlibat dalam upaya mengatasi permasalahan yang sedang terjadi di sekitarnya. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk memperlihatkan bahwa pelayanan kristiani secara komprehensif yaitu pelayanan holistik adalah sangat relevan dan dibutuhkan sebagai jawaban untuk mewujudkan Injil Yesus Kristus menjadi realitas dan sekaligus dapat mengentaskan persoalan atau kondisi masyarakat di mana gereja berada. Pelayanan holistik adalah sebuah paham akan peranan gereja dalam lingkup sosial, yakni pengontekstualisasian Injil Yesus Kristus pada masalah konkret yang terjadi di sekitar gereja. Pelayanan holistic sebagai upaya untuk merealisasikan pengajaran Alkitab ke dalam praksis, yang tentunya hal ini berlaku di tengah-tengah kondisi dan situasi masalah konkret di sekitar gereja.Berdasarkan kajian biblika khususnya pemberitaan Injil Sinoptik mengenai pelayanan Tuhan Yesus, tampak sangat jelas bahwa Ia tidak memisahkan (dualisme) antara Pemberitaan Injil dan kepedulian social. Pelayanan-Nya tidak hanya focus pada Pemberitaan Injil semata, yaitu penobatan seseorang menjadi murid-Nya untuk memperoleh keselamatan jiwa, namun bersifat holistik, yakni juga memerhatikan kebutuhan sosial. Seyogyianya pelayanan gereja masa kini pun juga holistic (utuh; menyeluruh) seperti yang telah dilakukan oleh Tuhan Yesus.

Hippeastrum peruvianum (Amaryllidaceae), a New Species from Northern Peru, and Notes on a Naturalized Species of Crinum First Described as Hippeastrum
Authors: Meerow Alan William , Campos-Rocha Antonio
Published: May 2019

A new species of Hippeastrum Herb. (Amaryllidaceae) from the department of Amazonas, Peru, is described and illustrated here. Hippeastrum peruvianum Meerow & Campos-Rocha features floral morphology unique among the other species of the genus occurring in the country. It has similarities with H. miniatum (Ruiz & Pav.) Herb. and H. reginae (L.) Herb. but is distinguished readily by its larger flowers, distinct coloration pattern, and trifid stigma. The new species is known only from the type collection by Paul C. Hutchison in 1958. It was determined as H. miniatum in error and has apparently been widely cultivated, especially in California, either under that name or erroneously considered a hybrid. We additionally observe that H. ugentii Ochoa, described from Peru and later transferred to Crinum L., is the naturalized South African species C. moorei Hook. f.

El buen vivir: un diálogo intercultural
Authors: Caudillo-Félix Gloria Alicia

En este trabajo escudriñaremos en diferentes miradas sobre el Buen Vivir (Sumak Kawsay) o el Vivir Bien (Suma Qamaña), que es una propuesta hecha por los líderes indígenas de Ecuador y Bolivia, pero que ha sido retomada por otros pueblos indígenas y por intelectuales latinoamericanos y europeos. El Buen Vivir, que viene desde las profundidades de las culturas indígenas, sólo puede entenderse desde una perspectiva intercultural, ya que los propios líderes retoman en su problematización elementos que hoy están en debate en el mundo occidental, mientras que los intelectuales y activistas no indígenas recuperan las propuestas hechas por los propios indígenas y aportan otros elementos para pensarlo.
CAPOEIRA COMO CONTEÚDO DA EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA NOS ANOS INICIAIS DO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL
Authors: Diego Ribeiro Alysson , Silva Júnior José , M. Sedorko Clóvis
Published: May 2019

A Capoeira representa um importante meio de difusão do movimento corporal nas escolas, na medida em que proporciona o desenvolvimento de capacidades físicas como equilíbrio, força, flexibilidade e ritmo, além de favorecer a aquisição de valores como a cooperação e respeito ao próximo. Contudo, parte da literatura especializada evidencia a negligência deste conhecimento no âmbito escolar. Diante do exposto, este estudo de caráter quantiqualitativo apresentou como objetivos identificar se a capoeira vem sendo desenvolvida pelos professores de Educação Física dos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental, bem como as metodologias que os mesmos utilizam para abordar esta cultura afro brasileira. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em sete (7) escolas da rede pública municipal de ensino do município de Ponta Grossa-PR, sendo a amostra final do trabalho composta por nove (9) professores de Educação Física das  respectivas instituições. Como instrumento para a obtenção dos dados foi utilizado um questionário contendo questões abertas referentes ao ensino da Capoeira. Após análise dos dados, realizada mediante a análise de conteúdo (BARDIN, 1977), constatou-se que a maioria dos professores não aborda esse conteúdo em suas aulas e a metodologia mais evidenciada nas respostas dos docentes corresponde ao ensino por meio de aulas teórico/práticas.

Published: May 2019

Chest X-Rays are most accessible medical imaging
technique for diagnosing abnormalities in the heart and lung area.
Automatically detecting these abnormalities with high accuracy could greatly
enhance real world diagnosis processes. In this study we aim to improve the
accuracy of convolutional deep learning by using Laplacian of Gaussian
filtering. In this study, we have used the publicly available Japanese Society
of Radiological Technology dataset including 247 radiograms. For improving the
performance of convolutional neural networks we used LoG filter and also we
used an advanced version of AlexNet and GoogleNet to compare our results. The
results indicated that, convolutional neural network with Laplacian of Gaussian
filter model produced the best results with 82.43% accuracy. Convolutional
neural network with Laplacian of Gaussian filter model is followed by convolutional
neural network with an accuracy of 72.97%, followed by GoogleNet model with an
accuracy of 68.92%. Out of the four model types utilized, the AlexNet model
produced the lowest accuracy with a value of 64.86%. The results obtained here
demonstrate that the pre-processing technique like Laplacian of Gaussian filter
can improve the accuracy.
Fortalecimiento de la ética en la formación de profesionales en odontología desde la perspectiva de la bioética personalista
Authors: Vílchez Bellido Dina
Published: May 2019

La formación en ética durante la educación universitaria constituye una necesidad para el logro de profesionales comprometidos con su labor, por lo que el desarrollo de estrategias dentro de un enfoque adecuado, que reconozca el carácter ontológico de la persona y su dignidad, permitiría su fortalecimiento desde las universidades. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo presentar los fundamentos que permitirán definir posteriormente las estrategias de fortalecimiento de la ética en la formación de profesionales en Odontología, desde la perspectiva de la Bioética Personalista. Se desarrolló una investigación descriptivo-documental, que incluyó el análisis de la problemática actual de la ética en la formación de profesionales en odontología, considerando la revisión de documentos y contenidos curriculares de cuatro universidades locales; se presentaron las bases teóricas de la ética en la formación universitaria y se exploró la perspectiva de la Bioética Personalista. Se concluye que la ética debería desarrollarse considerando estrategias que contemplen una presencia transversal de ésta a lo largo del plan de estudios, con una visión desde la primera persona y dentro de una bioética no relativista, como la enfocada por la bioética personalista, cuyas bases filosóficas y antropológicas permitan consolidar el desarrollo de la ética durante la formación universitaria.

Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo: Identificar, analizar y discutir los nuevos correctos en la administración de medicamentos desde la percepción de los profesionales de enfermería, y en base a los resultados elaborar una propuesta. Su importancia radicó en que permitió sistematizar la información sobre los nuevos correctos en la administración de medicamentos, producto de las experiencias de las enfermeras. El marco teórico conceptual está respaldada por Velandia para correctos; Carvalho para medicamentos; Morris para percepción y Nightingale para enfermería. El marco metodológico sigue un enfoque cualitativo con abordaje estudio de casos. Los sujetos fueron 7 enfermeras que laboran en el Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo (H.N.A.A.A.), determinados por saturación; para la recolección de datos se utilizó la entrevista semiestructurada a profundidad, el procesamiento de información fue mediante el método de análisis de contenido. A lo largo de la investigación se tuvo en cuenta los principios éticos de Sgreccia y los de rigor científico por Guba y Lincoln, obteniendo como categoría: Nuevos correctos en la administración de medicamentos con las subcategorías: (1) Informar al paciente sobre el medicamento que se le administra, (2) Revisar y registrar en las fuentes primarias, (3) Obtener una historia farmacológica correcta del paciente, (4) Conservar correctamente el medicamento, (5) Preparar o diluir correctamente el medicamento, (6) Utilizar los insumos adecuados,  (7) Conocer el tiempo de perfusión y (8) Aplicar medidas de bioseguridad. Arribando a la consideración final de que las enfermeras vienen implementando estos nuevos correctos a parte de los universalmente conocidos, para disminuir los efectos de medicación.

Propuesta metodológica basada en el análisis textual para la enseñanza de la escritura académica
Authors: Moscol Mogollón Doris
Published: May 2019

Este artículo brinda una metodología basada en el análisis textual para la enseñanza de la escritura académica, centrándose en dos tipos de textos: expositivos y argumentativos. El análisis textual es complemento de la Lingüística Textual y del Análisis del Discurso. La primera sirve de apoyo a los objetivos del segundo, permitiéndole la organización interna del enunciado. El artículo asume el enfoque cognitivo de Flower y Hayes (1981) y la clasificación de tipos de textos realizadas por Welrich (1975). El análisis textual se realiza por unidades temáticas; la primera, el texto como unidad semántica y pragmática; la segunda, la exposición, y la tercera, la argumentación. Respecto al análisis, primero, se analizan las estructuras de textos expositivos y argumentativos modelo; segundo, se analizan sus rasgos lingüístico-textuales y sus procedimientos prototípicos. Tras el análisis, los alumnos escriben diversos textos, con estructuras establecidas y rasgos propios. La reescritura se realiza después del análisis y corrección hasta su versión definitiva. De este modo, el universitario adquiere las habilidades de escritura y de autoaprendizaje, aprendiendo a aprender.
Filosofía de la trascendencia. amor, contemplación y conversión en el pensamiento de Stanislaw Grygiel
Authors: Bravo Díaz César
Published: May 2019

Antes que nada, empecemos por aproximarnos a los conceptos a tratar. La filosofía, el filosofar es un don que todos los hombres han recibido pero no todos han aceptado pues filosofar implica cambiar la vida y la conversión no resulta fácil. La cercanía con la verdad corresponde un compromiso con algo superior a nosotros mismos.

Objectives: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTe) is the most common type of thyroid cancer and the most common endocrine malignancy. Although it has a good prognosis, patients experience weight gain, fatigue, and neck pain after total thyroidectomy, and quality of life (QOL) can also
decline. There is no effective treatment for these symptoms. This study evaluated the feasibility and safety of acupuncture for treating of fatigue in patients with PTC after total thyroidectomy. Methods: This is a prospective randomized controlled study using before and after measurements.
The subjects included 25 patients with thyroid cancer who had undergone total thyroidectomy and were experiencing fatigue. Twelve patients underwent Saam (or Sa-Ahm) acupuncture treatment and thirteen subjects did not. Saam acupuncture, which is one of the original therapeutic modalities representing
traditional Korean medicine, is a unique treatment method that has a different origin than the modalities from China and Japan. The basic characteristic of combining five shu points in Saam acupuncture is the selection of the tonification and sedation points along the self-meridian and other
meridians based on creation and governor relationships. Acupuncture treatment was delivered two times a week for 6 weeks, in 25 to 30 minutes at each session. Acupoints were individually tailored according to the individual pattern of each patient. Fatigue severity and QOL were evaluated using
the fatigue scale score and Short Form-36 (SF-36), respectively. Fatigue severity scale is a 9-item self-report questionnaire scale developed by Krupp et al. in 1989. SF-36 is a 36-item, patient-reported survey of patient health. Body weight, body mass index, fatigue scale score, and SF-36
score were evaluated pre- and post-treatment, and laboratory tests for biochemical variables were also performed. Results: Fatigue scale score (FSS) significantly improved in the acupuncture group (FSS; 29.92 to 19.50, decrease; 91.7%) compared to the control group (FSS; 29.92 to 31.15,
decrease; 46.2%) at post-treatment compared to baseline (p=O. Oll). SF-36 scores were 74.12 in the acupuncture group and 69.02 in the control group, with no statistically significant difference(p=0.085). Weight change did not differ between the two groups. Liver enzymes such
as aspartate aminotransferase were lower in the acupuncture group (27.67 to 24.33 IUIL) than in the control group (20.77 to 24.08 IUIL) (p=O. Ol). No other biochemical markers differed between the two groups. Conclusions: Acupuncture such as ST-36, CV-4, KI-10, and HT-8 may relieve
fatigue and improve QOL in patients PTC who experience fatigue, and reduced QOL after total thyroidectomy without biochemical changes. A larger prospective study is required to confirm these effects.
The Symbolic Consumption of Cultural Quarters

Published: May 2019

Cultural tourism destinations, such as cultural quarters, have become an important part of postmodern society because tourists are more interested in cultural tourism than they have been in the past. The purpose of this research is to examine tourists' cultural quarters revisit or recommendation
intentions. Building on self-congruity theory, this research incorporates a "cultural contact" variable into symbolic consumption in the tourism destination brands model to examine tourists' cultural quarters revisit or recommendation intentions. In total, 400 Taiwanese tourists were recruited.
This study used structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine the proposed model. The results demonstrate that ideal self-congruence, brand identification, lifestyle congruence, and cultural contact influence tourists' satisfaction, which in turn affects their behavioral intentions. In addition,
cultural contact positively moderates the relationship between satisfaction and intentions. The theoretical and managerial implications of this study are discussed in the context of the cultural tourism literature.
Points of Interest Recommendations Based on Check-In Motivations
Authors: Vakeel Khadija Ali , Ray Sanjog
Published: May 2019

During a trip, tourists are mostly dependent on their mobile phone to select their next points of interest (POI). A mobile application that recommends POIs such as tourist attractions or restaurants is based on the user's location data such as check-in history. This article recommends
a novel approach to leverage the check-in data captured by location-based social networks (LBSNs) with an aim to improve POI recommendations through personalized explanations. The proposed algorithm generates a user's motivation profile, and its applicability is presented by analyzing
a dataset extracted from a popular LBSN. A between-subject experiment (N = 182) is conducted that shows explanations generated using a user's motivation profile increase transparency, which leads to intent to use the LBSN. Perceived usefulness of the LBSN also increases intent to use.
The study indicates that when suggesting a POI, recommender system developers include explanations based on user's motivation behavior profile.
Online Reputation and Destination Competitiveness: The Case of Spain
Authors: Perles-Ribes José Francisco , Ramón-Rodríguez Ana Belén , Moreno-Izquierdo Luis , Such-Devesa María Jesús
Published: May 2019

This article empirically explores the relationship existing between the online reputation and tourism competitiveness of Spanish coastal tourism destinations. It is based on big data from comments made by tourists in social media. The existing literature suggests that, in theory, a
destination's online reputation plays a key role in promoting its competitiveness. However, the results obtained in this study reflect, for the Spanish case, that this effect is today still very small and other determinants of competitiveness exist that are more relevant in promoting a true
competitive advantage of destinations.
Switching Barriers in Online Travel Agencies: The Impact on Positive Word of Mouth

Published: May 2019

This research attempts to clarify the different approaches followed in the literature to describe switching barriers. It helps identify and shed light on the wide variety of barriers that firms must manage. The study evaluates the role of switching barriers in online environments, distinguishing
between positive and negative barriers, and examines the factors that favor positive recommendations to other customers. To test the causal relationships between switching barriers, trust, affective commitment, and positive recommendations, a model was constructed and estimated using the SEM
methodology. The findings show that positive switching barriers affect positive recommendations both directly and indirectly through their effect on trust. Negative switching barriers, in contrast, only have a direct and negative effect on positive recommendations. It is fundamental for virtual
travel agencies to be trained to recognize when their customers are staying willingly and when they feel locked into their relationships.
The First Two Thousand Years of Star Formation
Authors: Machida Masahiro N. , Basu Shantanu
Published: May 2019

Starting from a prestellar core with a size of 1.2 × 104 au, we calculate the evolution of a gravitationally collapsing core until ∼2000 yr after protostar formation using a three-dimensional resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulation in which the protostar is resolved with a spatial resolution of 5.6 × 10−3 au. Following protostar formation, a rotationally supported disk is formed. Although the disk size is as small as ∼2–4 au, it remains present until the end of the simulation. Since the magnetic field dissipates and the angular momentum is then not effectively transferred by magnetic effects, the disk surface density gradually increases, and spiral arms develop due to gravitational instability. The disk angular momentum is then transferred mainly by gravitational torques, which induce an episodic mass accretion onto the central protostar. The episodic accretion causes a highly time-variable mass ejection (the high-velocity jet) near the disk inner edge, where the magnetic field is well coupled with the neutral gas. As the mass of the central protostar increases, the jet velocity gradually increases and exceeds ∼100

. The jet opening angle widens with time at its base, while the jet keeps a very good collimation on a large scale. In addition, a low-velocity outflow is driven from the disk outer edge. A cavity-like structure, a bow shock, and several knots, all of which are usually observed in star-forming regions, are produced in the outflowing region.
