The Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children - A resource for COVID-19 research: Questionnaire data capture April-May 2020
Authors: Northstone Kate , Howarth Simown , Smith Daniel , Bowring Claire , Wells Nicholas , Timpson Nicholas John
Published: June 2020

The Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) is a prospective population-based cohort study which recruited pregnant women in 1990-1992. The resource provides an informative and efficient setting for collecting data on the current coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In early March 2020, a questionnaire was developed in collaboration with other longitudinal population studies to ensure cross-cohort comparability. It targeted retrospective and current COVID-19 infection information (exposure assessment, symptom tracking and reported clinical outcomes) and the impact of both disease and mitigating measures implemented to manage the COVID-19 crisis more broadly. Data were collected on symptoms of COVID-19 and seasonal flu, travel prior to the pandemic, mental health and social, behavioural and lifestyle factors.

The online questionnaire was deployed across the parent and offspring generations between the 9th April and 15th May 2020. 6807 participants completed the questionnaire (2706 original mothers, 1014 original fathers/partners, 2973 offspring (mean age ~28 years) and 114 partners of offspring). Eight (0.01%) participants (4 G0 and 4 G1) reported a positive test for COVID-19, 77 (1.13%; 28 G0 and 49 G1) reported that they had been told by a doctor they likely had COVID-19 and 865 (12.7%; 426 G0 and 439 G1) suspected that they have had COVID-19.  Using algorithmically defined cases, we estimate that the predicted proportion of COVID-19 cases fell between 1.03% - 4.19% depending on timing of measurement during the period of reporting.

Data from this first questionnaire will be complemented with at least two more follow-up questionnaires, linkage to health records and results of biological testing as they become available. Data has been released as: 1) a standard dataset containing all participant responses with key sociodemographic factors and 2) as a composite release coordinating data from the existing resource, thus enabling bespoke research across all areas supported by the study.

Os pontos de vista do morador de periferia: o outro lado da política urbana
Authors: Ribeiro Maria Thereza Rosa
Published: June 2020

Este artigo tem por assunto as representações de grupos sociais, cujas práticas são (in)visíveis e (des)conexas em relação a políticas de planejamento da cidade. Discorre a representação dos moradores que vivem na periferia, não somente em virtude da desigualdade de distribuição de recursos econômicos, embora, por isso, atendidos por políticas sociais de Estado. Busca-se apresentar as entrevistas com lideranças de moradores de três loteamentos na cidade de Pelotas (RS), pelas quais se observa que a produção de significados do mundo vivido reproduz práticas culturais dominantes em espaços compartilhados por indivíduos possuidores de diferentes repertórios e visões de mundo. Constata-se, entretanto, que a “variação intraindividual” de significações oferece o repertório vinculado à “pluralidade de oferta cultural”, como argumenta Lahire (2006. p. 54-55), e possibilita “resistir à legitimidade cultural dominante”. Palavras-chave: Representação. Periferia. Disposição intraindividual.
A mulher árbitra de futsal: entre a norma e a resistência
Authors: Nascimento Aline Santos , Nunes Mário Luiz Ferrari
Published: June 2020

Este artigo visa identificar os processos de subjetivação que fixam o corpo da mulher árbitra de futsal como a diferença e as estratégias que elas empregam na tentativa de borrar as fronteiras que consolidam a modalidade como prática masculina. Apesar dos esforços e dos novos espaços de lutas que objetivam o direito à diferença e à igualdade dos direitos entre os gêneros, a mulher ainda enfrenta preconceitos e dificuldades. Ao serem marcadas como a diferença, atuam de forma ambivalente: ora em acordo com as normas estabelecidas ora mediante estratégias de resistência. Palavras-Chave: Mulher árbitra. Identidade e diferença. Futsal.

Jovens católicos brasileiros: presentes e ativos em sua igreja
Authors: Mariz Cecília , Mesquita Wânia , Araújo Michelle Piraciaba de
Published: June 2020

A literatura sobre religião e juventude na sociedade contemporânea aponta para um processo de individualização das experiências religiosas que tem afastado os jovens das igrejas e das instituições religiosas em geral. No entanto, os dados coletados tanto em um survey realizado durante a Jornada Mundial da Juventude de 2013 no Rio de Janeiro quanto em estudo qualitativo com jovens católicos universitários que participaram desse evento apontam para uma tendência contrária à descrita pela literatura citada. Em ambos os estudos os jovens declaravam-se praticantes e com forte vínculo com a Igreja Católica. Este artigo reflete sobre esses dados procurando maior entendimento sobre jovens católicos brasileiros que declaram participar mais de atividades religiosas de sua igreja do que os católicos estrangeiros e mais do que os evangélicos brasileiros.Palavras-chave: Juventude. Catolicismo. Prática religiosa.

Inhaled therapy for asthma
Authors: Booth Andrew
Published: June 2020

Inhaled therapy is key to the successful treatment of asthma. National guidelines provide us with the aim of asthma management, which is to maintain control of the disease. The correct combination of drug and device can be individually tailored to the patient. Drugs consist of bronchodilators and anti-inflammatories. Devices consist of aerosol inhalers, also known as pressurised metered dose inhalers, and dry powder inhalers. Both the drug and the device need to be prescribed if the treatment is to be clinically effective. A combination of inhaled steroid with long-acting B2 agonist is one of the most clinically effective ways of delivering asthma treatment. This can be prescribed either as a fixed daily dose with a concomitant short-acting B2 agonist as a reliever, or as maintenance and reliever therapy, which has been shown to improve asthma control and reduce exacerbations.
High-resolution adaptive interferometer with dynamic population grating recorded at 1064  nm in ytterbium-doped fiber

An adaptive optical fiber sensor/demodulator of an optical phase modulation with a Sagnac interferometer configuration is reported. The dynamic population grating recorded in ytterbium-doped fiber (YDF) at a wavelength of 1064 nm enables adaptive properties of this configuration with a high-pass transfer function and with the cut-off frequency of about 260 Hz at

A linear response with nearly 100% modulation depth is ensured by effective formation of the nonshifted phase dynamic grating with the amplitude one order of magnitude greater than can be expected from the saturation of the YDF absorption at the recording wavelength. This is associated with the photoinduced changes in the UV optical absorption of the YDF and enables minimal detected amplitude of the phase modulation

Phase stepping through polarizing modulation in electronic speckle pattern interferometry
Authors: Gómez-Méndez Gustavo A. , Rodríguez-Zurita Gustavo , Martínez-García Amalia , Otani Yukitoshi , Serrano-García David I. , García-Lechuga Luis , Ivan Toto-Arellano Noel
Published: June 2020

We have demonstrated a speckle out-of-plane interferometer that employs phase-stepping procedures by means of polarization modulation. The system generates circular polarization states with opposite signs at each arm of the system, which overlap at the output of the interferometer, to generate phase shifts operating a conventional linear polarizer; the emerging polarization states have been analyzed to obtain the shifts needed to process the optical phase. The phase-stepping technique is demonstrated with a two-step algorithm to measure out-of-plane displacement on a flat metal plate.

Interplay of three-body and higher-order interactions on the modulational instability of Bose–Einstein condensate
Authors: Subramaniyan Sabari , Lekeufack Olivier Tiokeng , Radha Ramaswamy , Kofane Timoleon Crepin
Published: June 2020

We investigate the modulational instability (MI) of trapped Bose–Einstein condensates with three-body and higher-order interactions employing both semi-analytical and numerical methods. Using the time-dependent variational approach, we derive variational equations for the time evolution of the amplitude, phase of modulational perturbation, and effective potential of the system. By means of an effective potential, we retrieve the corresponding MI condition of the dynamical system under consideration. The interplay between three-body interaction and higher-order interaction is discussed in detail. The semi-analytical predictions are confirmed through numerical simulations.
Nonastigmatic alexandrite ring laser design with wavelength-tunable single-longitudinal-mode operation
Authors: Sathian Juna , Tawy Goronwy , Sheng Xin , Minassian Ara , Damzen Michael J.
Published: June 2020

This work presents a study of a fully nonastigmatic design of a single-longitudinal-mode, wavelength-tunable, unidirectional alexandrite ring laser cavity and assessment of its performance compared to more complex laser design requiring astigmatism compensation. A “displaced mode” nonastigmatic laser cavity design eliminating astigmatic cavity elements is developed around an alexandrite crystal end-pumped by a low-brightness, high-power red diode laser pump system. Single-longitudinal-mode, continuous-wave operation is demonstrated with output power of 700 mW with an excellent

Exceptional point in a metal-graphene hybrid metasurface with tunable asymmetric loss
Authors: Li Shaoxian , Zhang Xueqian , Xu Quan , Liu Meng , Kang Ming , Han Jiaguang , Zhang Weili
Published: June 2020

Observation of exceptional points (EPs) in non-Hermitian parity-time (PT) symmetric systems has led to various nontrivial physics and exotic phenomena. Here, a metal-graphene hybrid non-Hermitian metasurface is proposed in the terahertz regime, whose unit cell is composed of two orthogonally oriented split-ring resonators (SRRs) with identical dimensions but only one SRR containing a graphene patch at the gap. An EP in polarization space is theoretically observed at a certain Fermi level of the graphene patch, where the induced asymmetric loss and the coupling strength between the two SRRs match a certain relation predicted by a coupled mode theory. The numerical fittings using the coupled mode theory agree well with the simulations. Besides, an abrupt phase flip around the EP frequency is observed in the transmission in circular polarization basis, which can be very promising in ultra-sensitive sensing applications.
Thermal post-curing as an efficient strategy to eliminate process parameter sensitivity in the mechanical properties of two-photon polymerized materials
Authors: Bauer Jens , Izard Anna Guell , Zhang Yunfei , Baldacchini Tommaso , Valdevit Lorenzo
Published: June 2020

Two-photon polymerization direct laser writing (TPP-DLW) is one of the most versatile technologies to additively manufacture complex parts with nanoscale resolution. However, the wide range of mechanical properties that results from the chosen combination of multiple process parameters imposes an obstacle to its widespread use. Here we introduce a thermal post-curing route as an effective and simple method to increase the mechanical properties of acrylate-based TPP-DLW-derived parts by 20-250% and to largely eliminate the characteristic coupling of processing parameters, material properties and part functionality. We identify the underlying mechanism of the property enhancement as a self-initiated thermal curing reaction, which robustly facilitates the high property reproducibility that is essential for any application of TPP-DLW.

Published: June 2020

We demonstrate a surface emitting 1.5 µm multi-quantum well (MQW) light-emitting diode (LED) on a 3-inch epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) InP/Si wafer. The enhanced crystalline quality of ELOG InP/Si is revealed by various characterization techniques, which gives rise to a MQW with high photoluminescence intensity at 1.5 µm and interference fringes arising from the vertical Fabry-Perot cavity. The LED devices exhibited strong electroluminescence intensity that increased with pump current. Moreover, transparency current measurements indicate optical gain in the 1.5 µm MQW on InP/Si. The results are encouraging for obtaining wafer scale 1.5 µm surface emitting laser structures on silicon with further optimization.
Effects of Silybum marianum Aqueous Extract and L-carnitine on Stereological Changes in Diazinon-Treated Rat Liver
Authors: Masoumi Forough , Shariati Mehrdad , Mokhtari Mokhtar
Published: June 2020

As an organophosphorus, Diazinon (DZN) impairs liver tissue function by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase and causing oxidative stress. In this study, the effects of Silybum marianum aqueous extract (SMAE) and L-carnitine (LC) on the stereological and histopathological changes of the liver in DZN-treated male rats were investigated. The rats in this study were placed into 9 groups of 8 each containing control, placebo, and a combination of DZN, SMAE, and LC. The animals received SMAE and chemicals orally for 30 days. At last, the liver tissue of all animals was removed. Then, tissue sections from the liver were provided to study the stereological markers including liver volume and weight, hepatocytes’ volume, central venous volume, sinusoidal volume, connective tissue volume, inflammation rate, and a number of the hepatocytes’ nuclei. Also, the sample tissues were evaluated histopathologically. Treatment with DZN significantly reduced the liver volume and weight, hepatocyte volume, central venous volume, sinusoidal volume, and hepatocyte nucleus number compared to placebo and control but it significantly increased the inflammation and volume of liver’s connective tissue. However, co-administration of SMAE and LC with DZN improved liver volume and weight, hepatocyte volume, central venous volume, sinusoidal volume, connective tissue volume, and hepatocyte nucleus number alone compared to the DZN treatment. Liver inflammation was also significantly decreased compared to the DZN treatment but comparing to the placebo and control groups, it increased significantly. Simultaneous administration of SMAE and LC has protective effects on liver tissue and can reduce DZN-induced liver injury in rats.

Published: June 2020

Antibiotics (AGP) have been used as feed additives to promote growth and feed efficiency in poultry production. However, many countries include Indonesia now ban the use of AGP and attempts are made to replace the antibiotic to maintain good performances of broilers. Plant bioactives is one of the alternatives that could replace the AGP. An experiment was conducted in an attempt to replace the AGP in broiler feed with a mixture of some plant bioactives (liquid smoke of cashew nutshell, Phyllanthus niruri, and clove leaves). Eight (8) dietary treatments were formulated to have similar nutrients consist of negative control (NC), positive control (NC+AGP), diets supplemented with liquid plant bioactives in 3 levels and diets supplemented with powder plant bioactives in 3 levels.  Each diet was fed to 6 replications of 10 birds each from 1 to 35 days old. The performances and the immune response of the broilers due to the treatments were observed. Results showed that the powder plant bioactives could not improve the performance of broilers. None of the feed additives (AGP or plant bioactives) affect the immune systems of the broilers. However,  liquid plant bioactives in low dose improved the performance of broilers better than the AGP and therefore is suitable to replace the antibiotic as feed additives in broiler diet.
Dossier Perspectivas materialistas. Presentación: Abordajes teórico–críticos de escrituras y artes contemporáneas
Authors: Maccioni Franca , Santucci Silvana
Published: June 2020

Los artículos que componen este dossier exploran el lugar activo que ocupa la imaginación de la materia en los procesos de materialización estética, al tiempo que despliegan su capacidad de agencia, de deseos, de afectos, de memoria y de participación histórica. En el entramado categorial complejo que delimitan las nociones de materia/materialidad/materialismo, los textos aquí reunidos abordan una serie de problemas claves para la estética y la filosofía en la contemporaneidad: la singularidad de las experiencias, la problematización de las temporalidades, la búsqueda de nuevas y diversas formas de lo común. Y lo hacen proponiendo perspectivas singulares de lecturas que oscilan entre materialismos semánticos, materialismos ensoñados, materialismo aleatorios, materialismos dialéctico–inmóviles y materialismos poshumanos.
¿Y mañana qué? Aproximaciones al presente desde la ciencia ficción latinoamericana del siglo XXI
Authors: Zalazar Belisario
Published: June 2020

El siguiente trabajo parte de una pregunta urgente: ¿Y mañana qué?, es decir, ¿existe un mañana para nosotros los terrestres en este tercer planeta del sistema Solar? El calentamiento global y la desaparición de refugios que permiten el desarrollo de múltiples formas de vida, humanas y no humanas, así como de actores abióticos, ponen en duda la posibilidad de tener un futuro compartido aquí en la Tierra. En tiempos del Antropoceno, el biocapitalismo como sistema que gestiona y regula los modos de vida globalizados aniquila alternativas en el presente y destruye las condiciones materiales de sostenibilidad mínimas, la futurabilidad misma del presente. La crítica al humanismo antropocéntrico, que postula al humano como único existente dotado de agencia, se torna necesaria para poder pensar un mañana poshumano. A partir del análisis de dos novelas de ciencia ficción latinoamericanas editadas en este nuevo milenio —Las constelaciones oscuras (Oloixarac) y La segunda enciclopedia de Tlón (Meier)— pretendemos abordar estas cuestiones. Lo poshumano, que no es sino ese presente negado por el sueño del Capital, significa una herida mortal al humano moderno. Nuevos horizontes se abren en los cuales la inmanencia radical supone una redistribución de los agentes de la geohistoria.

Authors: Gazir S Abdul , Wardhana I Gede Adhitya Wisnu , Switrayni Ni Wayan , Aini Qurratul
Published: June 2020

The Study of algebraic structures, especially on graphs theory, leads to anew topics of research in recent years. In this paper, the algebraic structures that will be represented by a coprime graph are the dihedral group and its subgroups. The coprime graph of a group G, denoted by \Gamma_D_2n is a graph whose vertices are elements of G and two distinct vertices a and b are adjacent if only if (|a,|b|)=1. Some properties of the coprime graph of a dihedral group D_2n are obtained. One of the results is if n is prime then \Gamma_D_2n is a complete bipartite graph. Moreover, if n is the power of prime then \Gamma_D_2n is a multipartite graph.

Menolak Wabah dalam Serat Ronggo Sutrasno Karya Sunan Kalijaga
Authors: Abdullah Muhammad
Published: June 2020

One of the Javanese texts with esoteric value is the Ronggasutrasna Kidungan Fiber which is kept by the Surakarta Sastra Lestari Foundation. Serat Kidungan Ronggasutasna is a Javanese script in which there is a text in the form of fibers written by Sunan Kalijaga written together with Ronggasutrasna and then published by Tan Gun Swi. This manuscript is a compilation of a number of songs including Rumeksa Ing Wengi (KRIW), Padanghyangan Kidungan (and those of the dhedhemit ratuning), and other hymns. However, the KRIW text is not an original manuscript written by Sunan Kalijaga. This is evidenced by the existence of other KRIW texts in PNRI presented in handwriting. Serat Kidung Ranggasutrasna is the song of the 'kid' of old fibers which is a representation of esoteric values and Islamic symbolism of the spiritual messages of Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga. After the authors examined the contents of the text, the authors concluded that most of the Ranggasutrasna's fiber of the Kidungan text contains the magic power plan in the form of spells of rebel, repellent witchcraft, sorcery, babysitting, escaping from the bondage of debt, self defense, war ethos, worship ethos, and treatment system in Javanese culture. Fiber Kidung Ranggasutrasna belongs to the piwulang script which is presented in the form of Javanese song.Keywords: Song of Ranggasutasna; esoteric; magical power; local wisdom. Intisari Salah satu naskah Jawa yang bernilai esoteris adalah Serat Kidungan Ronggasutrasna yang disimpan oleh Yayasan Sastra Lestari Surakarta. Serat Kidungan Ronggasutasna adalah sebuah naskah Jawa yang di dalamnya terdapat sebuah teks berbentuk serat hasil tulisan Sunan Kalijaga yang disusun bersama Ronggasutrasna dan kemudian diterbitkan oleh Tan Gun Swi. Naskah ini merupakan kompilasi dari beberapa kidungan yang di antaranya Kidungan Rumeksa Ing Wengi (KRIW), Kidungan Padanghyangan (danyanghyangan para ratuning dhedhemit), dan kidung-kidung lainnya. Namun teks KRIW bukan merupakan naskah asli tulisan Sunan Kalijaga. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya teks KRIW lain dalam PNRI yang disajikan dalam tulisan tangan. Serat Kidung Ranggasutrasna merupakan nyanyian 'kidungan' serat kuna yang merupakan representasi nilai-nilai esoteris dan simbolisme Islam dari pesan-pesan spiritual Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga. Setelah penulis meneliti isi teks, penulis menyimpulkan bahwa sebagian besar teks Serat Kidungan Ranggasutrasna berisi tentang piwulang kekuatan gaib yang berupa mantra-mantra tolak balak, penolak santet, tenung, penjaga bayi, kluar dari belenggu hutang, bela diri, etos perang, etos ibadah, dan sistem pengobatan dalam budaya Jawa. Serat Kidung Ranggasutrasna tergolong ke dalam naskah piwulang yang disajikan dalam bentuk tembang Jawa.Kata kunci:  Kidung Ranggasutasna; esoteris; kekuatan gaib; kearifan lokal.

Les stoïciens et Platon – monistes ou dualistes ?
Authors: Mikeš Vladimír
Published: June 2020

The Stoics’ way of presenting principles – the active and the passive – is ambiguous because they say that principles are two while also suggesting that they are inseparable and thus interdependent. This ambiguity cannot be resolved in favour of one or the other side of the dilemma, as is shown by analysis of two possible models of the relations among principles – a causal and a categories-based model. This ambiguity is rather a necessary consequence of the Stoic view of principles and should be compared to the ambiguity of Plato’s concept of “principles” in theTimaeus. Plato’s Receptacle is in a similar relation to other constitutive elements of his cosmogonical account as are the two Stoic principles, each to the other. In particular, the relation between the Receptacle and qualities in it is to be seen as a systematic parallel to the relation of the Stoic principles (and probably also its historical model). The concluding claim is that Plato and the Stoics advance a similar kind of dualism which should be called such, despite its ambiguity. The ambiguity in both systems is due to the need to see the principles in such a relation as would reveal their dependence, and thus secure the basic unity of the cosmos.
Functional electrical stimulation for home-based upper-limb stroke rehabilitation
Authors: Kutlu Mustafa , Freeman Chris , Spraggs Matthew
Published: June 2020

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) therapies have shown effectiveness in restoring movement post-stroke, especially when applied functionally to assist participants’ voluntary intention during repeated, motivating tasks. Recent development in non-contact sensors allows feedback to advanced controllers that precisely adjust FES via an electrode array to assist functional reach and grasp tasks. This has given rise to significant reduction in impairment, as measured in clinical trials. This paper describes the recent developments of a compact system suitable for transference to patients’ homes, with the intention of reducing upper-limb impairment following chronic stroke.
Modelling of therapeutic action during mirror therapy
Authors: Morkisch Nadine , Jettkowski Katrin , Santos Luara Ferreira dos , Dohle Christian
Published: June 2020

Background and purpose:

In patients with pathology of one limb, mirror therapy (MT) uses the mirror reflection of the unaffected side to improve function of the affected limb [1]. There is some evidence that Virtual Reality (VR) can substitute the real mirror [2]. To create a standardised VR based mirror therapy as a self-training, several steps of conceptual considerations are essential. The purpose of this project was to understand the therapeutic action of standardised MT and thus to pave the way for a partially automated VR based MT to be executed as a self-training.

Methods:

A principle of motor learning, called Shaping, is anchored in two existing standardised MT protocols (BeST & BeSTEP) [3], [4] . To understand the shaping process within MT, shaping items and criteria were extracted from the protocols. Additionally, a questionnaire and participatory observation during MT sessions were performed and standardisation rules by means of documentation sheets of MT units were analysed.

Results and conclusion:

The knowledge about the shaping process during conventional MT, especially in the BeST phase is currently not sufficient to derive machine learning and therefore to create an automated system at this time. Further conceptual investigations to gather this information are necessary and projected.
Application of head-mounted devices with eye-tracking in virtual reality therapy
Authors: Lutz Otto Hans-Martin , Burmeister Charlotte , dos Santos Luara Ferreira , Morkisch Nadine , Dohle Christian , Krüger Jörg
Published: June 2020

Using eye-tracking to assess visual attention in head-mounted devices (HMD) opens up many possibilities for virtual reality (VR)-based therapy. Existing therapy concepts where attention plays a major role can be transferred to VR. Furthermore, they can be expanded to a precise real-time attention assessment, which can serve as a foundation for new therapy approaches. Utilizing HMDs and eye-tracking in a clinical environment is challenging because of hygiene issues and requirements of patients with heterogeneous cognitive and motor impairments. In this paper, we provide an overview of those challenges, discuss possible solutions and present preliminary results of a study with patients.
Origin of a silver Stollhof-type disc excavated at Vanovice (South Moravia)
Authors: Prokeš Lubomír , Jarůšková Zuzana , Petřík Jan , Frączek Marcin , Kalicki Tomasz
Published: June 2020

The oldest silver artefact from north of the Alps was found on the territory of Czech Republic is Stollhoff-type disc found in Kotouč hill near Štramberk. Similar silver disc was recently excavated at Vanovice (Czech Republic). This paper was complied to answer these particular questions: 1. what was the origin of earliest silver artefacts in Central Europe, 2. when these artefacts were emerged, and 3. what raw material was used and how it was processed. To answer these questions, typological analysis of vessels, thermoluminescence (TL) dating, compositional analysis (performed by ED-XRF) and scanning electron microscopy were employed. According to shape of ceramic vessels accompanying silver artefact, the Vanovice hoard can be dated to the Baalberge phase of the Funnel Beaker Culture during the later Eneolithic. Attempt to date pottery by TL method was not successful. The local origin of the pottery and the Carpathian/East-Balkan source of metal suggest that the Vanovice silver disc and the accompanying pottery were made in different periods, largely because precious metals endure longer than pottery.
The phonotactics of syllabic liquids in Czech words of foreign origin
Authors: Bičan Aleš
Published: June 2020

The paper describes and analyzes the occurrence and combinability of Czech syllabic liquids in words of foreign origin in order to find out whether and how they differ from native Czech words. The comparison relies on the material taken from the Phonological Corpus of Czech. The phonotactics of the native words is treated as the primary system that has been enriched by phonological properties of the loanwords. It is shown that the loanwords have extended the range of the occurrence of the syllabic liquids as well as the range of combinations of a consonant plus a syllabic liquid. Most of the newly imported combinations are instantiations of latently possible phonotactic patterns, but there are some genuine innovations with a potential to reshape the native phonotactics. Special attention is paid to English loanwords because they contain most of the phonotactic peculiarities.

Published: June 2020

Increase in the asphalt binder prices, dwindling crude oil resources, and an enhanced obligation for environmentally sustainable asphalt binder necessitates the exploration of alternate avenues. One such promising approach is the adoption of bio-oil (BO) from biomasses for the production of asphalt binder. This study adopts BO derived from groundnut shell biomass (by fast pyrolysis) for modification of AC30. BO was incorporated in AC30 at varying dosages of 5, 10, and 15 % by weight. The tests performed included carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen; Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy; absolute viscosity; softening point; dynamic viscosity; frequency sweep at multiple temperatures; performance grade (PG); multiple stress creep and recovery; and linear amplitude sweep. Both carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen and FTIR analysis indicated that BO had caused alterations at the molecular level of AC30. An increase in absolute viscosity and softening point was observed up to a BO dosage of 10 %. Dynamic viscosity was observed to increase until 5 % BO dosage. BO dosages of 10 % and 15 % were observed to increase the high-temperature PG. However, the intermediate temperature grade increased for all BO dosages. Only 15 % BO dosage caused a compromise in the low-temperature PG. Nonrecoverable creep compliance was observed to decrease until the BO dosage of 10 %, indicating an enhancement in rutting resistance. Also, fatigue life was observed to enhance until 10 % BO dosage. Overall, the study indicated that groundnut shell BO can substantially improve the resistance to primary distresses of rutting, fatigue, and thermal cracking. Conclusively, a BO dosage of 10 % was observed to be the most favorable.
Effect of Re-vibration on Strength Properties of Lightweight Concrete
Authors: Kassim Muayad Mohammed
Published: June 2020

In relatively deep structural members, re-vibration is applied to sequential layers after they are initially hardened. This may cause harmful effects on strength properties, especially on lightweight concrete (LWC). In this experimental study, the effects of re-vibration on LWC properties were thoroughly investigated. Local lightweight crushed pumice rock named “Bonza,” as well as set retarding admixture and silica fume (SF) were used to produce four different mixes of LWC. These mixes were re-vibrated at different time lags (0:00, 2:50, 4:30, and 5:30 [h:min]). After the re-vibration process, compressive and tensile strength properties, as well as pulse velocity, density, and permeable voids volume of hardened concrete mixes, were investigated. Results showed that using the setting retarder and partial SF replacement of Portland cement, the density, compressive, and tensile strength properties were increased in all re-vibrated mixes when the re-vibration was accomplished before the final set time of the cement. A lack of correlation between ultrasonic pulse velocity, density, and compressive strength was also detected. Furthermore, a linear relationship was found between permeable voids volume and compressive strength of all mixtures.
Visualization of Localized Deformations of Sand in Drained Triaxial Compression Using Digital Image Correlation
Authors: Leib Alexia R. , Sharma Aashish , Penumadu Dayakar
Published: June 2020

The deformation behavior of sand in drained triaxial compression has been investigated using three-dimensional digital imaging correlation (3D DIC) based on surface deformation data for a deforming cylindrical specimen of sand. 3D DIC was utilized to obtain very detailed quantitative surface deformations, and strains were interpreted using large strain formulation. The time at which localization occurs as well as the characteristics of localization, whether it be bulging or shear banding, is greatly influenced by the initial relative density and less by particle morphology for a given effective confining stress. This paper summarizes important experimental observations related to strain localizations that were observed consistently for rounded and angular specimens for varying initial void ratios and confining stresses as a function of particle morphology. Data suggest similar pre-peak localization profiles irrespective of particle morphology. The post-peak evolution of localization is influenced by particle shape.

(RE)INVENTAR EDUCAÇÃO ESCOLAR NO BRASIL EM TEMPOS DA COVID-19
Authors: Monteiro Sandrelena Da Silva
Published: June 2020

As portas das escolas foram fechadas de forma abrupta, a suspensão das aulas não estava prevista no planejamento escolar, aconteceu motivada por um fator externo: a pandemia da COVID-19. Profissionais da educação, estudantes e familiares se inquietaram. As informações oficiais eram, não poucas vezes, desencontradas. O que realmente estava acontecendo? Sem previsão de retorno das aulas presenciais o MEC propôs o ensino a distância, inclusive para a Educação Básica. Mas como isso se daria? Essa modalidade de ensino seria acessível a todos os estudantes e professores? Seria computada no calendário escolar? Essas e muitas outras perguntas estavam sem respostas, o que acabou por gerar uma situação de ansiedade e insegurança no contexto escolar. É em meio a esse cenário de interrogações que esse ensaio se propõe a refletir sobre alguns dos impactos da COVID-19 na educação escolar brasileira. Alinhavado com muito mais perguntas que respostas, busca-se pensar sentidos e valores que possam promover a resiliência contribuindo para a reconstrução da vida e (re)invenção da profissão docente e da educação escolar em meio à adversidade dos dias atuais.

COVID-19: uma abordagem médico-conservacionista
Authors: Garrido Rodrigo Grazinoli , Rodrigues Eduardo Leal
Published: June 2020

Desde o final de 2019, na China, um novo coronavírus passou a provocar síndrome respiratória aguda grave (SARS) que se espalhou pelo mundo e estabeleceu uma pandemia. O surto já acometeu milhões de pessoas, gerou centenas de milhares de mortes e trouxe prejuízo econômico que pode alcançar trilhões de dólares. Vírus como o agente da COVID-19 passam a infectar o homem por episódios de salto da barreira interespecífica, passando por uma ou mais espécies. Assim, a contaminação inicial depende do contato com a vida selvagem, o que se torna cada vez mais comum com a hiperexploração de espécies, a destruição de habitats e o aumento populacional. O estudo desse fluxo de agentes infecciosos, relacionando a medicina humana à sanidade animal e às questões ambientais é  feito pela Medicina da Conservação. A partir de pesquisa exploratória, analisou-se a COVID-19 através da perspectiva médico-conservacionais e mostrou-se que intervenções na origem dos agentes infecciosos seriam capazes de restringir surtos devastadores de doenças e, consequentemente, reduzir impactos sociais e econômicos.
INDÚSTRIAS FARMACÊUTICAS E LICENÇA COMPULSÓRIA NO COMBATE À COVID-19: melhor remédio?
Authors: Alvarenga Guilherme Emmanuel Lanzillotti , Costa Maria Alice Nunes
Published: June 2020

Este artigo traz à tona a questão sobre a proteção da patente de invenção no setor farmacêutico vis-à-vis ao cenário para a descoberta de medicamentos para o tratamento da COVID-19 e da vacina para conter e prevenir o seu avanço exponencial da atual pandemia global. Grandes empresas farmacêuticas têm interesse no descobrimento da terapia eficiente ao combate da COVID-19, como meio para alocar recursos financeiros e ganhar posição de destaque na concorrência internacional. Nesta competição acirrada, um dos meios de flexibilização da proteção da patente farmacêutica é a licença compulsória, na qual o Estado intervém para diminuir o preço e liberar a exploração da invenção por outros laboratórios. Demonstramos no presente que a indústria farmacêutica brasileira, carente de recursos e desenvolvimento tecnológico, terá enorme desafio para dar vazão à produção, em larga escala, de vacinas e/ou medicamentos contra a guerra viral, sem a presença do Estado. O SARS-CoV-2 veio para abalar o protagonismo das políticas neoliberais, que acreditam na pretensa alocação perfeita do mercado.
A HISTÓRIA DA CIDADE E O ISOLAMENTO SOCIAL: reflexões sobre a formação do arquiteto-urbanista
Authors: Junior Jose Lucio Nascimento
Published: June 2020

O presente ensaio nasceu de um debate ocorrido ao final de uma aula virtual da disciplina de História e Teoria da Cidade e do Urbanismo, onde o tema tratado foi as reformas urbanas ocorridas na Europa Ocidental na segunda metade do século XIX, tendo como estudo de caso: Londres, Viena e Barcelona; ao fim da aula alguns discentes buscaram relacionar os conteúdos com a realidade vivida, perguntando sobre o isolamento social, as medidas governamentais e como poderiam atuar como futuros arquitetos-urbanistas. No presente estudo sistematiza-se a resposta apresentada a luz da análise das transformações urbanas da região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro e dos dados disponíveis até o fim do mês de março de 2020. Para tanto, inicialmente, compara-se o ocorrido nas cidades italianas com os primeiros relatos no Estado do Rio de Janeiro e no Estado de São Paulo, para, em seguida, analisar as ações dos governos estadual e municipal da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Conclui-se, a partir do período estudado, que as ações governamentais não consideraram os conhecimentos ligados à história da cidade e a realidade urbana da capital e região metropolitana, indicando que existe a possibilidade de grande avanço da doença para essas regiões.

Authors: Aicega Dolores
Published: June 2020

El objetivo general de esta investigación es explorar los distintos desafíos que presenta la lectura para la traducción literaria a los estudiantes del Traductorado Público de una universidad nacional argentina. Para ello, se consideraron aportes de los estudios sobre la comprensión de textos y de la traductología, y se incorporó la perspectiva bajtiniana para abordar los textos y la traducción literaria. Se realizó un estudio exploratorio, cualitativo y transversal del que participaron 55 estudiantes del cuarto año de una universidad nacional argentina y se analizaron 55 traducciones que tales estudiantes produjeron en el marco de la cursada de Traducción Literaria 1. Los resultados obtenidos mediante el análisis de este corpus permiten concluir que la lectura como parte de la traducción literaria impone a los futuros traductores desafíos que se relacionan, por un lado, con la elaboración de los distintos niveles de representación de la información textual: estructura superficial, base del texto y modelo de situación. Por otra parte, la interpretación del texto fuente como artefacto lingüístico, sociocultural y literario que incorpora informaciones de diverso tipo genera desafíos adicionales a los estudiantes. Finalmente, estos desafíos dan cuenta de una competencia traductora aún en formación.Palabras clave: Traducción literaria; lectura; formación de traductores.
