Pengaruh Dimensi Tiang Mini Dan Faktor Aman Terhadap Lendutan Pelat Terpaku Tiang Tunggal
Authors: Oktavia Ferly , Puri Anas , Mildawati Roza
Published: August 2019

[ID] Perkerasan Sistem Pelat Terpaku merupakan pengembangan Sistem Cakar Ayam yang berfungsi sebagai salah satu alternatif solusi untuk mengatasi permasalahan konstruksi jalan pada tanah lunak. Selain itu, kenaikan kapasitas dukung tanah dasar akibat pengaruh dukungan tiang-tiang pada pelat akan mengurangi kebutuhan tebal perkerasan beton dan memperkaku sistem perkerasan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh diameter tiang masif dan faktor aman terhadap lendutan pelat terpaku tiang tunggal. Dimensi struktur pelat terpaku dan data material mengacu pada Puri (2017). Sistem ini dibebani dengan pembebanan tekan sentris. Perhitungan lendutan dan gaya dalam pelat menggunakan metode BoEF, berdasarkan tambahan modulus reaksi tanah dasar ekivalen yang dibandingkan dengan lendutan hasil pengamatan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa besaran faktor aman mempengaruhi nilai lendutan hitungan. Lendutan hitungan meningkat dengan peningkatan faktor aman. Penggunaan faktor aman 1,0 memiliki pola lendutan mendekati lendutan pengamatan untuk tiang bulat. Analisis perhitungan lendutan dengan ukuran mini pile  yang semakin besar menghasilkan lendutan pelat yang semakin kecil. Variasi SF tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap momen pelat.

[EN] The Nailed-Slab Pavement System is the development from the pavement of the Cakar Ayam System which as an alternative solution to solve the problem of road construction in soft soil. In addition, the increase in bearing capacity of the subgrade due to the influence of the poles support on the plate will reduce the need for thick concrete pavement and strengthen the pavement system. This study aims to learn the effect of massive pole diameter and safe factors on the deflection of single-pile Nailed Slab. The dimensions of the Nailed-slab structure and material refer to Puri (2017). This system is burdened with press centric loading. Calculation of deflection and force in plates uses the BoEF method, based on the additional modulus of the subgrade equivalent reaction which is compared to the deflection observed. The results of the analysis show that the magnitude of the safe factor affects the value of the deflection calcutation. This deflection  increases with an increase in safe factors. The use of the safe factor 1.0 has a deflection pattern that is closer to the observation deflection for the round pile. Analysis of the deflection calculation with the size of the mini pile which gets bigger results in a smaller slab deflection. SF variations have no significant effect on the plate moment.
Reciprocal Polarizable Embedding with a Transferable H2O Potential Function II: Application to (H2O)n Clusters & Liquid Water
Authors: Ougaard Dohn Asmus , Jónsson Elvar , Jonsson Hannes
Published: August 2019

The manuscript analyzes the accuracy of our recently developed reciprocal polarizable embedding scheme, where a density functional theory model of the QM region is coupled to a dipole- and quadrupole polarizable water potential of the MM region. We present calculations of water clusters and liquid water where we analyze the energy, atomic forces and total polarization to demonstrate that artifacts in energy and polarization introduced by the QM/MM coupling are small and well-behaved. Furthermore, our methodology improves the consistency of the structure of optimized water hexamer geometries when compared to results obtained with models that neglect polarization. Additionally, the manuscript provides evidence that our coupling scheme eliminates artifacts in the structure of liquid water obtained with simpler electrostatic embedding models.

Published: August 2019

A colorimetric assay for the detection of DNA fragments associated with the oil palm pathogen Ganoderma boninense is reported, which is based on the aggregation of DNA-nanoparticle conjugated in the presence of complementary DNA from the pathogen. Here, various designs of DNA-nanoparticle conjugates were evaluated, and it was found that the best design gave a visually observable colour change with as little as 2 pmol of double-stranded DNA analyte even in the presence of a large excess of a mixture of non-complementary DNA. The assay was also able to differentiate analyte sequences with three or more single nucleotide mismatches. Overall, this label-free system is rapid, sensitive, selective, simple in design and easy to carry out. It does not require specialist equipment or specialist training for the interpretation of the results and therefore has the potential to be deployed of agricultural diagnostics in the field.

Authors: Bipin Nair B J  , Adarsh C K  , Nishin S  , Nihar K P  , Shivaranjith P
Published: August 2019

In our work, we cluster the data collected on pregnancy women through hospitals, into three different categories such as elective LSCS, emergency LSCS and normal delivery. We aim to identify outliers so that we can predict the complications that can occur during pregnancy. These complications can even lead to maternal death. Clustering is performed by the aid of k-means, and k-medoid procedures which are implemented in windows form application to run in Microsoft Visual Studio, a comparison is provided on its performance and efficiency between both the algorithms and also the outlier, i.e. normal delivery cases are detected and depicted. From our work, we can clearly say that K-Means works better when the dataset is between the range of 50 – 100. Suppose the data set is greater than 500 then K-medoid works efficiently. In our work, we are considering various maternity cases. Here we are detecting normal delivery cases as an outlier.
Mediação cultural, migração textual e transmediatização
Authors: Medeiros Nuno
Published: August 2019

Este artigo explora as modalidades de produção de livros a partir de padrões de circularidade intertextual e transmediática. A história da edição é fértil em exemplos em que o texto editado em livro se inspira num guião de filme ou em que um filme se baseou num livro previamente publicado, podendo acontecer a sua passagem a programa de rádio, mas também a peça de teatro ou a série televisiva. A migração textual assim desocultada também interroga o próprio significado de originalidade e autoria de um livro, na medida em que esse livro resulte de sucessivos processos de encarnação mediática. Elaborando empiricamente a partir do catálogo e do arquivo da editora portuguesa Romano Torres, a pesquisa demonstrou a existência de vários livros capazes de suscitar perguntas sobre o seu estatuto enquanto objecto, evidenciando como a intervenção no texto pode ser correlativa de avatares que o transformam enquanto produto destinado a ser enquadrado, pensado e consumido de muitas formas, sujeitando-se a um ciclo de reconfiguração e apropriação.
Uma análise antropológica das feiras internacionais do livro
Authors: Moeran Brian , Munir Jr. Jose
Published: August 2019

As feiras internacionais do livro são extremamente importantes pela luz que jogam sobre a organização e a estrutura da indústria editorial. Primeiramente, porque as feiras mais importantes tendem a coincidir com o ciclo do livro: os editores vendem suas listas de primavera nas feiras que ocorreram no outono anterior (por exemplo, Frankfurt), e suas listas de outono nas feiras da primavera (como Londres e Bolonha). Em segundo lugar, as feiras do livro reúnem todos os membros da cadeia de suprimentos e de valor da indústria editorial, proporcionando a eles uma ocasião única para a interação face a face. Terceiro, elas dão uma estrutura visível ao campo editorial e reforçam essa estrutura, ao mesmo tempo em que tornam visíveis os vários recursos (capital econômico, humano, simbólico e intelectual) controlados por diferentes editoras no espaço estruturado de posições em que se movem. Como os participantes competem por esses recursos, as feiras de livros podem ser vistas como um torneio de valores.

Professor tutor: papéis, funções e desafios
Authors: Garcia Marta Fernandes , Da Silva Dirceu
Published: August 2019

O texto apresenta os resultados de uma investigação sobre o papel e a prática de professores tutores de diferentes regiões do país que trabalham com a formação de professores a distância. Um questionário foi aplicado a 386 professores tutores para avaliar os diferentes papéis que ocupam e a intensidade com que se percebem neles, bem como as funções desenvolvidas por esses sujeitos. Os dados foram submetidos a análises descritivas e cruzamentos. Os resultados evidenciam que o tutor carece de identidade profissional e que, apesar da variedade de papéis ocupados simultaneamente, exerce com maior intensidade o papel de motivador. Suas funções revelam transitoriedade entre uma prática pedagógica e uma prática administrativa.

Welding of mobile elevating work platforms
Authors: Silva Abilio , Szczucka-Lasota Bożena , Węgrzyn Tomasz , Jurek Adam
Published: August 2019

The demand for new welding technologies in civil engineering and transport is increasing. An example of this is the tendency to increase the operating range of a mobile platform mounted on motor vehicles while maintaining the weight of the vehicle. The most commonly used material in the production of mobile platforms are AHSS steels due to their high tensile strength at the level of 1400 MPa. However, the joints created with their use are characterized by much lower strength than the native material. In this article, the most appropriate parameters for welding elements of a mobile platform from difficult-to-use steel AHSS were selected.
The idea of measuring the real induction in the machining gap filled with magnetic material
Authors: Marczak Michał , Kopytowski Adrian , Nowicki Rafał , Stambolov Grigor
Published: August 2019

The article presents the characteristics of the distribution of magnetic flux density inside the machining gap in the magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF). Based on the analysis of the magnetic field in the empty gap and the distribution of forces in the magnetic circuit, the concept of measuring the real value of magnetic induction in a flexible abrasive tool formed in an external magnetic field was proposed. An indirect way of determining the magnetic induction has been described, which has a significant influence on the force acting on abrasive grains in the process of magnetic abrasive finishing. The advantages and the problems of the applied approach as well as the measurement methodology based on the change in the attraction force of the magnetic field elements as a result of the change in the concentration of abrasive grains and the width of the machining gap are presented.

Optimal Control Problem of Vacination for The Spread of Measles Diseases Model
Authors: Suandi Dani
Published: August 2019

Measles is a disease in humans that is very contagious. Before the vaccine was known, the incidence of measles was very high, even the measles mortality rate reached 2.6 million every year. With the introduction of vaccines, the mortality rate in 2000-2016 can be reduced to 20.4 million deaths. Therefore, vaccination programs are very useful in reducing the incidence of measles. Unfortunately, we cannot know the optimal conditions for administering vaccines. The study of optimal control analysis of vaccination is needed in optimizing the prevention of the spread of measles. In this paper, a mathematical model which is a third-order differential equation system is constructed based on characteristic information on measles. The existence and locally stability of the equilibrium point are analyzed here. In addition, optimal control of the vaccination program also occurred. The results of our analysis suggest that the incidence of measles can decrease as the effectiveness of vaccination increases. But the effectiveness of vaccination is directly proportional to the costs incurred. If the cost incurred for the vaccination program more significant, the incidence of measles will decrease.
Phonological Architecture of Word-Forms in Gothic
Authors: Парк С.
Published: August 2019

The article studies theoretical foundations of the study of the phonological mechanism in the formation of phonemic shapes of word-forms in Gothic. The study provides theoretical information about the phonemic system of the Gothic language within the framework of the kinemic theory. Phonemic structure of the word-form is presented as a canonical form, which is the recording of the phoneme sequence of consonant (C) and vowel (V) phonemes. The role of word-forms of each length is not the same: the most frequent are word forms in length from two to seven phonemes, while in word-forms with a length of eight and more phonemes the frequency is much lower, and word-forms in the length of fifteen to seventeen phonemes are represented by single examples. Typical models of constructing word-forms are illustrated with examples of the most commonly used and most frequent wordforms in Gothic manuscripts. Examples of construction patterns of word forms atypical for the Gothic language are given.

Published: August 2019

Political language has always been an important socio-cultural phenomenon. The article focuses on some psycholinguistic aspects of a political leader speech. Attention is paid to the psycholinguistic methodology of studying aspects of political leader speech peculiarities. The analysis is based on Hillary Clinton’s concession speech. The purposes of the article are to analyze the speech of the American political leader from the point of view of psycholinguistics and characterize the psychological state of the political individual during her speech. It has been established that the speech is characterized by long and complex sentences, which indicates a slight emotionality of the speaker. The vocabulary diversity coefficient is high enough and indicates the richness, diversity and eloquence of the language policy. The verb correlation coefficient indicates a low aggressiveness of the speech, in which gratitude to voters for support and expressing a desire to cooperate with the elected presidential candidate for the sake of the bright future of a common homeland. The logical coherence coefficient indicates a logically structured speech, which is characterized by logic and connectivity. The rate of embolism is extremely low, which indicates the high level of the politician’s speech and the corresponding social status of the speaker. The speech is structured, meaningful, logically connected with the use of appropriate methods of influencing the audience.
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY DISCOURSE CONNECTIVES ANALYSIS IN THE HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Authors: Lysetska Yu.
Published: August 2019

The article analyses the historical origin of the most frequent discourse connectives in the English language. Two specific groups of discourse connectives: primary and secondary are studied. Lexically frozen connectives (primary) arose from parts of speech (particles, adverbs and prepositions) or combination of two or more words. Primary connectives were not primary connectives from their origin but they gained this status during their historical development through the process of grammaticalization. They are mainly one-word, lexically frozen, grammatical expressions with primary connecting function, whereas, secondary connectives are multiword structures containing lexical word or words, functioning as sentence elements or even separate sentences. The paper investigates the historical origin of the most common connectives in English and points out that they underwent a similar process to gain a status of present-day discourse connectives.
ISRAEL’S STANDPOINT CONCERNING THE QUESTION OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
Authors: Gasparyan S.
Published: August 2019

The recognition of the Armenian Genocide is one of the key and intricate problems on the Armenian national agenda, often spoken and written about. A variety of political, historiographical, psychological and social analyses has been conducted, a profound mass of venerable literature has been created, thereby introducing the issue to the international community and drawing the consideration of both Armenian and foreign scholars. With such an abundance of materials on the Armenian Genocide, nevertheless, some aspects of the issue need a thorough examination. Today special attention should be paid to the study of linguistic facts which are key elements of the textual mechanisms of adequate interpretation or perversion and distortion of the historical events. The textological analysis of diverse interpretations is quite a new and important statement in the research of the issue under consideration and is aimed at studying the linguistic expressions of various attitudes towards the issue of the Armenian Genocide. The present article aims at studying Israel’s attitude to the question of the Armenian Genocide from the abovementioned standpoint which also implies a reference to the historical outlook of the problem as to a corresponding element of the vertical context of the given variety of speech.
A spectacle of reality in the context of mass media resonance (on the example of Chuck Palaniuk’s “Snuff”)
Authors: Циховська Е. Д.
Published: August 2019

The article deals with a spectacle as an integral part of the modern mediatized world. The features of coverage of spectacles with mass media are analysed. It is noted that the most popular are spectacles, based on real events, because the effect of a reality enhances the emotion of the perception of the material.

Real spectacles transmitted through the mass media acquire a remarkable resonance. Thus, the coverage of terrorist acts, mass and individual brutal killings in media news unintentionally advertises a spectacle of “terrible” in its real size.

Such spectacles include news, extreme events, and snuff. In the modern interpretation “snuff-movie” — these are short films, videos, most often pornographic, depicting murders in real life. The author focuses on snuff films because they combine the main characteristics for attracting viewers: the spectacle, the real foundation and basic emotions — the combination of porn and horror.

The novel “Snuff” by Palaniuk demonstrates the main features of snuffs. According to the laws of the genre, in “Snuff”, there is a woman — Cassie Wright as the main character of the event, and sex as the organizing element of the book’s plot, and rape as the reason for the selection of the Cassie Wright’s profession, as well as the death of the main character as foreseen result of pornoorgia.

The spectacle of the real in the novel is intensified through the mediation of the publicity announcement and coverage of the resonance pornography in the media.

The construction of a reality in the novel is based on numerous historical facts or facts from the lives of prominent people which are told about by Cassie Wright during conversations. In addition, all of them is accompanied by a phrase-refrain “true fact” to underline the reality of the course of events.

Authors: Калитюк Л. П.
Published: August 2019

The article focuses on a study of speaking behaviour of catfish (dating scammers). The investigation is based on real events which took place in 2017–19. The priority is given to highlighting the scammers’ steps leading to fraud. It also provides a classification of dating scammers (based on their experience) and such related issue as their fictional personal names, which can be one of the telltale signs for identifying a dating scammer. A considerable amount of space and attention is devoted to stages of ‘romantic’ relations, which demonstrate the tendency to escalate: 1) friend request, introduction and positive self-presentation; 2) development of relations, language manipulating and accurate investigation of victim’s financial standing; 3) swift decision to pay a visit to his lady; 4) travelling to another country to meet some contractual obligations; 5) unforeseen financial problem(s); 6) the result. The chief of these stages are the first three. The article is organised around three main domains: theories, facts, and conclusions.
Decanonization of modern internet-poetry on the example of genre of «pyrizhok»
Authors: Вігер О. О.
Published: August 2019

Special features of a modern internet poetry-genre «pyrizhok» are reviewed in the article. The investigation of texts, which are not suited to the traditional norms of literature, is based on the scientific understanding of contemporary literary process on the part of literary scholars such as O. Rakitna, O. Yudina, T. Kononenko, K.Rakitna, M. Pekhа. Traditional canonical forms of poetry do not always satisfy the modern recipient, at the same time the new forms have not achieved sufficient evolution. Comparative analysis of traditional forms of concise poetry is made, such as tchastivka (humorous rhyme), kolomiyka (Ukrainian dance and song), sonnet, rubai from the one hand and modern forms of internet lyrics genre of «pyrizhok» and «poroshok» from the other hand.

Despite “patties” («pyrizhky») are rather related with folklore, they are created by a particular author, often under the pseudonym. The presence of a particular author is akin to a “patty” with a canonical genre — rubai. This canonical genre is associated with one author — Omar Khayyam. According to authors, Vladyslav Richter is the “patties’” first creator, but his work only gave impetus to the development of the genre. A huge number of unknown authors led the genre into a category of canonical / anticononical.

In this work, the complicated and contradictory character of the category “canon” is investigated. The evolution of the terms “canon” and “decanonization” in poetry comes along the process of democratization in literature. Similar features incidental to «pyrizhok» and “сomics” are found namely briefness, laconic brevity, illustrativeness and contextuality. In such a manner all the forms of internet-poetry might be considered as experimentally provocative genre. Decanonization is observed on all stages — from stylistic layer to high-principled accent. «Pyrizhok» reflects social disposition and is a part of decanonization process. In this research the attempt of provingthat «pyrizhok» is one of the most democratic genre of modern poetry is made. It is needed to be investigated by literature specialists.
Changing the Learning Environment: Teachers and Students’ Collaboration in Creating Digital Games
Authors: Magen- Nagar Noga , Shachar Hanna , Argaman Osnat
Published: August 2019

Aim/Purpose: The current study examines the impact of an intervention program to train teachers to collaborate with their students while creating digital games.

Background: Teachers seem unable to leverage the potential of ICT to present students with a rich learning environment. ICT integration is usually at a relatively simple and concrete level without changing the traditional teacher-student paradigm.

Methodology: The study is both quantitative and qualitative. Participants were 63 active teachers studying in the M.Ed. program at a teacher education college. The teachers responded to a series of pre- and post-questionnaires and wrote a concluding reflection.

Contribution: Teaching based on creating digital games, combined with teacher-class collaboration, is a viable and real alternative of constructivist teaching, adapted to different learners.

Findings: The SEM path analysis showed that it was only after the intervention that the lower the teachers’ resistance to changing teaching patterns, the higher their intrinsic motivation to learn an innovative pedagogical-technological program and likewise the sense of mastery of 21st-century skills, resulting in a positive attitude towards classroom collaboration. The qualitative findings reveal eight categories dealing with two main themes: the first is professional development, including conceptual, behavioral and emotional change, and the second is the teachers’ perception of the learners.

Recommendations for Practitioners: Teacher training should be ongoing in order to change teaching-learning processes and promote an active approach based on constructive principles, 21st-century skills and collaboration between teachers and students in a computer environment.

Recommendation for Researchers: Future studies should start by sampling teachers and education professionals who have convenient access to technology in their teaching-learning environment.

Impact on Society: Collaboration between teachers and students in creating learning games in a computer environment and teacher-class collaboration, in general, require very different training than that which exists today. Hence there should be some rethinking of teacher training. The proposed pedagogical model is one such idea in the right direction.

Future Research: A larger study with a greater number of participants, including a control group, should be conducted.

Authors: Ovčinikova A. , Kizlaitienė R.
Published: August 2019

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the main cause of acquired neurological disability in the young people. In MS treatment, disease modifying therapies (DMTs) are essential to reduce disease progression by suppressing the inflammatory response responsible for promoting lesion formation. Injectable (Interferons and Glatiramer acetate) and infusion (Natalizumab, Alemtuzumab) therapies are both effective however rather exhausting for patients. Recently, in addition to the injectable and infusion DMTs, new orally administered drugs have been approved for MS therapy: fingolimode, dimethyl fumarate, and teriflunomide. These drugs act with different mechanisms on the immune system and are more comfortable for MS patients. In this review we provide a systematic description of the new oral drugs fingolimod, dimethyl fumarate and teriflunomide and also introduce the influence of polymorphic gene variants in the Human Leukocyte Antigen region on the risk of developing MS and its progression and effectiveness of DMTs.

The article is devoted to the theoretical understanding of the qualitatively new trends in the development of customs technologies related to digitalization. We are talking about the prospects of creating artificial intelligence designed to identify homogeneous groups of goods during customs control. A critical assessment of existing software products used to identify goods for customs purposes is given, a number of shortcomings are noted that do not allow for full identification with the particularities of building a single Commodity Nomenclature for Foreign Economic Activities of the Eurasian Economic Union (CN for FEA of EEU). A model for the formation of databases of identification characteristics of homogeneous groups of goods and the principle of developing scenarios for expert systems for the identification of products based on artificial intelligence are proposed.
