The optimal time to sidetrack into a different layer from an already producing horizon with secondary recovery mechanism of waterflooding is evaluated with the uncertainties embedded in Probabilities of success (POS) including economic, operational, technical and reservoir properties. Previous literatures are majorly primary recovery and secondary recovery by waterflooding in which production profiles were represented by empirical and analytical models. However, not all recovery mechanisms can be sufficiently reproduced by these models and this introduces and explains the need for the use of proxy models to predict cumulative production and net-present-value (NPV). The peculiarity of this study is the application of decision analysis/tree with multiple terminal branches to both production and injection sidetrack, where NPV is estimated under the influence of change of recovery mechanism due to sidetrack (recompletion) to another possibly non-communicating zone or layer with uncertainty of reservoir properties and production discontinuity from the already producing horizon. By and large, sidetrack time adds in acute non-linearity on the NPV. Multi–objective functions of proxy models over time-intervals for the impacted terminal branches, known as split design was applied to evaluate when to carry out a well sidetrack operation under risk and uncertainty. This was adopted to resolve severe non-linearity of the NPV and the multi-objective function of EMV by a standard optimization algorithm in a spreadsheet. The final results gave a satisfactory match to the simulation results. In order to get a perfect match through more improvements on performance there is a need for large computation times and the decision must be made depending on the required result. Monte- Carlo simulation analysis shows that optimal sidetrack time is at the early production life.

This research is about biogeochemistry which investigates the relationship of heavy metals concentration contained within plants versus soil samples in the selected area of Sokor, Kelantan. The identified lithology of the study area is argillaceous and calcareous units and the geological structures of folding which contribute to the current bed dipping and hydrothermal alteration through joint infilling has indicated an ore deposit region. Four sets of soil and plant samples had been collected and characterized through X-Ray Diffraction, X-Ray Fluorescence and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry respectively. The main composition of soil is clay minerals, kaolinite, dickite and pyrophyliite which can indicate argillic alteration and possible supergene enrichment for ore deposition. Phyllic alteration has also been found in area close to the study area with mineral assemblage of pyrite, quartz and sericite. A relationship between the geomorphology, plant morphology and the ore element content in the soil also have been discussed. The metal elements concentration is found higher in lower elevation except aluminium and iron; the differential morphology of Melastoma Malabathricum can indicate iron concentration in the soil.

Diesel engines are principally employed in industries, transportation and agricultural fields because of their high efficiency and reliability. However, too much of smoke and nitric oxide emissions is one of the drawbacks. To regulate pollution and other negative effects of diesel engines, alternative fuels have come into existence. Ethanol produced from sugarcane in the biomass process is a recent example of it, due to its high octane number. But using raw ethanol is not a quality fuel for a solid ignition engine. It can be converted through a dehydration process to produce Diethyl Ether (DEE), which is an excellent compression-ignition fuel with a higher energy level than ethanol. DEE having a starting problem can’t be used directly in large amounts in diesel engines, but using it in small amounts is an advantage. This paper highlights the performance of blended pyrolysis oil with diesel fuel in the combination of DEE used in a mono cylinder four-stroke diesel engine. The pyrolysis process was used to extract the pyro oil from the Mosambi peel biomass. The oil has been extracted from Mosambi peel at the reaction temperature of 750˚C, in other words, the fast pyrolysis process. The study was conducted on composition of MDEE5 (5%MPPO+5%DEE+90D),MDEE10(10%MPPO+5%DEE+85%D) and MDEE15 (15% MPPO + 5%DEE + 80% D). Characteristics of the above combinations, MDEE5, MDEE10, and MDEE15 were analyzed and the properties like viscosity, density, flashpoint, fire point FTIR analysis of oils are also recorded. The blending of pyrolysis oil and DEE are mixed with diesel fuel with its volume. All the blended fuels were tested at 1500 rpm single-cylinder diesel engine. The maximum power output of brake thermal efficiency was recorded as 31.5% with MDEE5 as it was 30.0% with BD. The emission of smoke and NOx were considerably reduced.

The conceptualization of the domain knowledge “selection and placement of a crop” was carried out. The model contains ontological entities – classes and the relationships between classes, presented in the Unified Modeling Language format. The model describes five classes – “Crop”, “Crop biology”, “Conditions for growth and development”, “Control actions”, and “Placement”, as well as a list of characteristics that affect the performance targets of factors. An algorithm based on the control matrix has been proposed. With the participation of an expert, values from zero to one were assigned for seven factors of “Control actions”, based on the assumption that the control actions affect 22 factors of three other classes: “Crop biology”, “Conditions for growth and development”, and “Placement”. A crop selection can be performed by comparing these matrices with each other. A flow diagram for the preparation of decisions for crop cultivation management, which includes 84 control action chains, has been proposed. Each of these chains was also rated from zero to one for conformity with a certain ideal agronomic strategy. According to these estimates, it is possible to obtain the strongest and weakest strategies for the decision-maker. The structural management of crop selection and placement does not include changing of the models that calculate numbers in the final tables for each crop, but rather is the development of criteria for the presence of the class characteristics in the table for the domain knowledge. Adding or removing characteristics for each crop changes ratings and total values. Artificial intelligence identifies a set of strategies according to the algorithm of their evaluation, which was developed with the participation of an expert.

Published: December 2019

Historically the contribution of anesthesiology is undeniable, however, often related perioperative practical skills are not the only components of intensive care. Today, the skills of a trained intensivist have enormous diversity. Actually too big to be owned by a classic specialty, whatever. Intensive medicine has become a unique, complex multidisciplinary profession with different backgrounds transcending a host of other specialties. Anesthesiology could be a leader in some contexts, however, seems to be a leadership to be regained, in other scenarios, intensive medicine is already hopelessly individualized, and stands out. Considering the heterogeneous development and policies around the world, currently no other specialty is in a position to consider itself naturally competent to assume the responsibility of conducting an ICU.
Pain assessment in critically ill patients in low resource countries
Authors: Afshan Gauhar , Siddiqui Ali Sarfraz
Published: December 2019

We attempted to review the published literature to find out the status of pain assessment in critically ill patients (CIPs) managing in ICUs of low resource countries. We used broad electronic database (2004-2018) from common search engines. Evidence showed that 33%-61% of the patients in ICU experienced pain at rest and among them 10%-33% of patients experienced moderate to severe pain in developed countries. Prevalence of pain is expected to be high in low resource countries due to huge disease burden of CIPs. The gold standard of pain assessment is self-reporting; however, this is not possible when patients in ICU are unable to communicate. Alternatively, Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) and Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT) can be used in this population. These methods/tools are being used in developed countries, however, no evidence is available in low resource countries. The dynamic nature of pain in ICU patients justifies regular pain assessment in all ICU settings. Authors strongly recommend that pain should be objectively assessed in all ICU patients regardless of age and gender using reliable and validated tools like BPS or CPOT.Citation: Afshan G, Siddiqui S.

Published: December 2019

Papilomatose canina é uma patologia infectocontagiosa causada pelo papilomavírus e caracterizada por neoformações benignas cutâneas na cavidade oral, lábios, faringe, esôfago e trato genital. Esta enfermidade é espécie-específica, de caráter autolimitante, com regressão entre quatro e oito semanas após o surgimento das lesões; em alguns casos, porém, pode se tornar crônica, causando disfagia e até obstrução faringeana. Sua transmissão se dá por meio de contato direto ou indireto com secreções ou sangue advindo de animais contaminados. O diagnóstico é obtido com a associação de aspectos clínicos e exame histopatológico. Devido ao potencial autolimitante, diferentes protocolos de tratamento são descritos, dentre eles, imunoestimulantes, autovacinas, ressecção cirúrgica, fármacos antivirais e auto-hemoterapia. Este trabalho descreve um caso de papilomatose com enfoque na falha na utilização da vacina autógena associada à Propionibacterium acnes.
Avaliação termográfica da influência do exercício em regiões articulares de membros posteriores de cães hígidos
Authors: Germano Bruno , Navarro Alves de Souza Alexandre , Maria Matera Julia
Published: December 2019

Quando um exercício é realizado ocorrem diversas contrações musculares, transformando a energia química proveniente da dieta em energia cinética. Porém, nenhum organismo consegue uma eficiência de 100% nesse processo, sendo assim, o restante da energia é convertida em energia térmica, gerando calor, que será transportado para tecidos mais superficiais e dissipado através da pele, essa liberação de energia pode ser captada com o emprego da termografia, que registra a emissão de radiação infravermelha, indicando a temperatura corporal. Este estudo observou o comportamento térmico das regiões articulares de membros posteriores de cães saudáveis submetidos a diversas atividades e avaliou quanto cada articulação é exigida para a realização desses exercícios. Doze animais saudáveis foram submetidos a vários tipos de atividades: subir escadas, descer rampas, sentar e levantar, e caminhar. Foram medidas as temperaturas corporais de região das articulações coxofemoral, do joelho e tibiotársica, de ambos os lados dos animais, antes e após os exercíos. Posteriormente à mensuração e análise estatística dos resultados foi observada apenas uma pequena alteração térmica entre as articulações antes e após o exercício, sugerindo que o exercício leve necessita de menor exigência das articulações estudadas do que o exercício intenso, como reportado por outros estudos.

Published: December 2019

The insect attack is one of the main factors responsible for the loss of corn grain stored after harvest, thus sustainable strategies such as natural extracts can be used as cheap methods of control. This study evaluated the effects caused by Spathodea campanulata nectar extracts on the maize weevil Sitophilus zeamais to the preference test and mortality was used completely randomized design with 10 replications and treatments solutions of 0, 5, 10, 30 to 50% nectar under study. He noted that the preference index was lower in the first 3 hours of evaluation and the highest concentration of extract (50%), resulting in a possible repellent effect, but with the potential loss in subsequent evaluations. Already mortality was increased from the concentration of 30%, but the number of dead insects was low, indicating low efficiency. However, the percentage of perforated grains was reduced at the highest concentration and decreasing interfering insect feeding.

ОСОБЕННОСТИ СБАЛАНСИРОВАННОГО РЕГИОНАЛЬНОГО РАЗВИТИЯ В КОНТЕКСТЕ БЮДЖЕТНОГО ПЛАНИРОВАНИЯ
Authors: Литовка Наталья , Никаева Разет
Published: December 2019

В последние годы особо актуализировалась проблема сбалансированного развития депрессивных регионов. Это требует оперативной разработки федеральных государственных и региональных целевых программ, и инвестиционных проектов, реализация коих способна удовлетворить требования бюджетной, коммерческой и социо-эколого-экономической целесообразности. В этой связи, на наш взгляд, необходимо разработать средства и методы построения сбалансированного развития региональной социо-эколого-экономической системы, позволяющие соблюсти мезоэкономические пропорции, выдерживать параметры индикативного планирования, выполнять налоговые, договорные и прочие обязательства. Пожалуй, в последние годы в нашей стране из-за депрессивного состояния большей части субъектов РФ особо актуализировались поиски путей обеспечения сбалансированного развития территорий. В целом всевозможные подходы к этой актуальной теме исследования можно свести к необходимости надлежащего бюджетного планирования и распределения бюджетных средств. И это понятно, ибо непосредственно сами трансфертные платежи можно рассматривать как один из самых распространенных инструментов, предназначенных, в т.ч., и для устранения всевозможных диспропорций мезо- и макроэкономического развития. Прежде, чем начать разработку формулировки концептуальных положений сбалансированного развития необходимо сосредоточиться на уточнении предмета исследования. На наш взгляд, одним из наиболее значимых для достижения сбалансированности регионального развития выступают организационно-экономические условия. Речь идет о необходимости, в первую очередь, совершенствования организационных условий - ведь не секрет, что до сих пор основами структурного формирования органов государственной исполнительной власти являются административные формы сорокалетней давности. Надо отметить, что сбалансированному развитию территориального развития не всегда уделялось в прежние годы достойного внимания, ибо оно не входило тогда еще в список приоритетных направлений. Как правило, в этот период все внимание органов власти акцентировалось на отраслевое развитие... Все это и позволило сосредоточиться на выбранной нами статье.

Zadebiutowała w Warszawie w latach 30. XX wieku. W okresie II wojny światowej stała się jedną z ofiar Holocaustu. Legenda Ginczanki skupia uwagę na jej tragicznym losie i wczesnej śmierci w wieku zaledwie 27 lat. Niemniej jednak, twórczość poetycka tej autorki zasługuje na nasze uznanie. Jest ostatnimi laty doceniana przez badaczy. Poliszczuk rozważa w swoim tekście artystyczno-płciowy kryzys tożsamości Ginczanki, wyraźnie obecny w jej twórczości. Językowa i kulturowa orientacja Ginczanki skłaniała ją do wyboru polskości. Doznane przez poetkę prześladowanie na gruncie rasowym, a także potrzeba poznania korzeni kierowały ją w stronę kultury żydowskiej. Natomiast język rodzinny łączył ze światem kultury rosyjskiej, którą traktowała z dystansem. Tak czy inaczej, Zuzanna Ginczanka doznała swego rodzaju stanu „heroicznej zdrady”, zarówno wobec swego pochodzenia, jak i języka. Obecnie jej oryginalna postać po raz kolejny intryguje badaczy oraz interpretatorów, a poezję artystki warto dziś odczytywać jako szczególny rodzaj palimpsestu kulturowego.
Dyskursywne praktyki kultury masowej w eseju
Authors: Szewczenko Tetiana
Published: December 2019

W artykule analizowane są praktyki dyskursywne kultury mass mediów we współczesnych ukraińskich dramato-esejach (эссе-драме). Zostało tu też przeprowadzone badanie performatywności esejów literackich pod kątem ich cech dramatycznych. Szewczenko skupia się również na kwestii aktywnego oddziaływania owych form literackich na wyobraźnię, emocje i podświadomość czytelnika. Bada ponadto ich dialogowość, przybierającą niekiedy cechy „monodialogowości”. Niniejsze metody kultury masowej transformują się bowiem w poetyce dramatoesejów, tworząc zarazem nowy, duchowo-mentalny kod mowy.
Encyklopedyczna wykładnia symboliki orła w twórczości Mikołaja Reja i Marcina Bielskiego
Authors: Zagożdżon-Łyszczarz Joanna
Published: December 2019

Tematem artykułu jest symbolika orła rozpatrywana na tle dawnej tradycji encyklopedycznej. Zestawienie erudycyjnych treści z zakresu historii naturalnej z fragmentami dzieł Mikołaja Reja i Marcina Bielskiego przynosi interesujące spostrzeżenia. Powszechnie wiadomo, że uniwersalny charakter symboliki orła jako emblematu władzy w kulturze staropolskiej zajmował wyjątkowe miejsce w heraldycznym zwierzyńcu. Jednakże, alegoryczne wykładnie związane z motywem tego królewskiego ptaka w utworach naszych pisarzy okazują się wykraczać poza tradycyjnie przyjęte interpretacje. Wydaje się bowiem, że symbol orła w poetyckim ujęciu Reja i Bielskiego stanowił przede wszystkim emblemat ptaka niebieskiego, co miało stanowić zapowiedź głębokiej przemiany duchowej całego naszego narodu. Wiele także wskazuje na to, że akwilarna symbolika stanowiła niezwykle nośny element konstrukcyjny w dawnych dziełach encyklopedycznych.
Czytając „Kroniki”
Authors: Mika Ewelina
Published: December 2019

Ewelina Mika dokonuje w swoim artykule recenzji książki Jarosława Ławskiego zatytułowanej "Miłosz: kroniki istnienia. Sylwy" (2014). Lektura prezentowanego tu tekstu potwierdza, że jest to – zdaniem badaczki – książka będąca tyleż efektem prywatnych pytań, wątpliwości i namysłu, co naukowa, a wybrana przez Ławskiego forma sylwy udatnie mieści wnikliwą refleksję wynikłą z osobistej lektury i wrażliwie zgłębioną oraz naukowo udokumentowaną interpretację. Sylwa usprawiedliwia, a może po prostu uprawomocnia i uwydatnia, tę cechę założoną, cechę tekstu interpretacyjnego, jaką jest wyraźnie wybrzmiewający osobisty ton badacza. Autor nie unika ujawniania siebie, występuje jako badacz niekryjący się z własną pasją badawczą, wykorzystujący możliwości warsztatu polonistycznego w pogłębianiu lektury, ale równie – a może najpierw? – ufający swojej intuicji i wyobraźni czytelnika-pasjonata, będącego jednocześnie literaturoznawcą.
Książka zabawka, książka wzbogacona. Wyobraźnia – obraz – sztuka edytorska
Authors: Zarych Elżbieta
Published: December 2019

„Książka zabawka” to określenie bardzo pojemne i pod wieloma względami nieprecyzyjne, co wynika między innymi z różnorodności stosowanych w niej technik i rozwiązań edytorskich, pochodzenia zaliczanych do niej typów (z odmiennych źródeł i czasów), a także kwestii prawnych i handlowych. Zaproponowany i opisany został więc termin „książka wzbogacona” pozwalający rozwiązać wiele problematycznych kwestii, jak również podział wykraczający poza stosowane klasyfikacje opierające się jedynie na stronie technicznej i rozwiązaniach edytorskich i poligraficznych (w gruncie rzeczy służebnych). Podjęto też wiele ważnych zagadnień towarzyszących tego typu książce, w tym: źródła jej poszczególnych grup, nośność pewnych tematów, postaci i obrazów skłaniających do tworzenia książek wzbogaconych, relacje obrazu i tekstu, rozumienie zabawki i relacje między książką (kodeksem) a zabawką, związki sztuki edytorskiej z wyobraźnią, nauką i rozrywką, zagadnienie odbioru oraz dziecięcego i dorosłego odbiorcy. Szeroko pojęta książka zabawka, książka wzbogacona nie funkcjonuje bowiem jedynie w pokoju dziecięcym i na marginesie nauki, ale na pograniczu wielu dyscyplin: sztuki, edytorstwa, historii książki, literaturoznawstwa, pedagogiki, psychologii, projektowania, teorii gier, mediów, a także nauk społecznych, stąd warto podejść do niej interdyscyplinarnie.
Ocalić od zapomnienia… "Cudowne bajki" Adolfa Dygasińskiego w perspektywie współczesnych studiów nad literaturą dla młodego czytelnika
Authors: Gierczak Sylwia Katarzyna
Published: December 2019

Celem artykułu jest prezentacja mnogości oraz różnorodności sposobów obrazowania, zastosowanych przez Adolfa Dygasińskiego w "Cudownych bajkach" – zbiorze dziewięciu opowieści dla młodego czytelnikautrzymanych w atmosferze baśniowości i cudowności. Autorka referatu koncentruje swoje analizy wokół literackiej wizji miłości, elementów fantastycznych, portretów zwierzęcych i tonacji grozy. Przekonuje, że„magiczną” kompozycję warto ocalić od zapomnienia, sygnalizując liczne walory edukacyjne i wychowawcze składających się na nią tekstów. Proponuje włączenie zbioru do szkolnej edukacji polonistycznej, zauważajednak, że wymaga on pewnych modyfikacji w warstwach leksykalnej oraz graficznej. Baśniowe opowieści pokazuje w kontekście wybranych współczesnych koncepcji interpretacyjnych, na przykład hermeneutykispod znaku Gadamera, studiów intertekstualnych, tendencji posthumanistycznych czy zwrotu etycznego.
Syjoniści chrześcijańscy w Europie środkowo-wschodniej (1876-1884). Przyczynek do powstania Hibbat Syjon, pierwszego ruchu syjonistycznego
Authors: Steele Philip Earl
Published: December 2019

W swoim artykule Philip Earl Steele analizuje udział syjonistów chrześcijańskich w Europie środkowo-wschodniej w latach 1876–1884, czyli w dobie rozwijającego się ruchu syjonistycznego, znanego jako „Hibbat Syjon”. Interesuje go więc dążenie wśród Żydów dawnych guberni Rosji carskiej oraz Rumunii do osadnictwa w Palestynie, a zwłaszcza zachęcanie ich do tego ze strony angielskich syjonistów-chrześcijan. Idee syjonizmu rozpatruje badacz szeroko – w kontekście literacko-historyczno-polityczno-religijnym. Ukazuje on przede wszystkim wpływ powieści "Daniel Deronda" autorstwa George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) na środkowoeuropejski ruch syjonistyczny, wraz ze wpływem Laurence’a Oliphanta – okrzykniętego przez Żydów „mesjaszem”, „drugim Cyrusem” i „Samsonem” – oraz wielebnego William Hechlera (najlepiej pamiętanego jako bliskiego współpracownika Theodora Herzla), który w 1882 roku spotkał się z Leonem Pinskerem i miał rolę w przekonania go do Palestyny jako terytorium dla żydowskiego państwa, jakie Pinsker postulował w swoim dziele "Auto-emancypacja". Jako zwieńczenie pierwszego stadium nowonarodzonego ruchu Steele traktuje słynną konferencję Howewe Syjon, która odbyła się w Katowicach w 1884 roku, pod przewodnictwem Pinskera oraz rabina Samuela Mohylewera z Białegostoku.

Perceptions of Efficacious Teachers Regarding Their Experiences of Professional Development: A Narrative Inquiry
Authors: Jan Alam  , Syed Muhammad Aamir  , Shahzad Saqib
Published: December 2019

This qualitative investigation followed a narrative inquiry research approach to determine how 5 teachers, identified as efficacious and committed to life-long learning, perceived the experiences of their professional development. In-depth interviews were conducted to answer two research questions: 1) how do efficacious teachers perceive professional development experiences? 2) which professional development experiences do efficacious teachers consider the most and least important in terms of improving instruction? Data analyses included transcribing, coding, and constructing five narratives. Findings indicated that teachers value professional development experiences that offer relevant knowledge, time for reflective thinking, practical knowledge, and empowerment to make better choices regarding instruction. It was also highlighted that the lack of time, and lack of discussing ideas or problems with colleagues was barriers teachers confronted when applying new learning. On these bases some suggestions were made to be given due consideration.
Intuitiveness of geospatial uncertainty visualizations: a user study on point symbols
Authors: Brus Jan , Kučera Michal , Popelka Stanislav
Published: December 2019

Be understanding of uncertainty, or the difference between a real geographic phenomenon and the user’s understanding of that phenomenon, is essential for those who work with spatial data. From this perspective, map symbols can be used as a tool for providing information about the level of uncertainty. Nevertheless, communicating uncertainty to the user in this way can be a challenging task. Be main aim of the paper is to propose intuitive symbols to represent uncertainty. Bis goal is achieved by user testing of specially compiled point symbol sets. Emphasis is given to the intuitiveness and easy interpretation of proposed symbols. Symbols are part of a user-centered eye-tracking experiment designed to evaluate the suitability of the proposed solutions. Eye-tracking data is analyzed to determine the subject’s performance in reading the map symbols. Be analyses include the evaluation of observed parameters, user preferences, and cognitive metrics. Based on these, the most appropriate methods for designing point symbols are recommended and discussed.
Research into map-analysis strategies: theory- and data-driven approaches
Authors: Havelková Lenka , Hanus Martin
Published: December 2019

This study focuses on the strategies used during an analysis of four types of thematic maps (line symbols, area-shading, choropleths, and diagram maps) on the basis of the use of eyetracking technology. Moreover, it discusses the use of data-driven (spatial and spatiotemporal) and theory-driven (spatiotemporal) methodological approaches to research on the topic and aims to verify their applicability experimentally. The results of the experiment assist in identifying the main merits and limits of these approaches and serve to supplement and expand the results of prior studies. It is apparent that the strategies selected by users, when analyzing maps, are highly individualized and are distinguished by the frequent flitting of the eyes between the individual parts of the task. Among other things, it was discovered that most attention was paid to the task instructions and the map, and that the most frequently utilized sequence of eye movement was: task, map, (scale/north arrow, legend), answers.
Technological infrastructure supporting the story network principle of the Atlas of the Ageing Society
Authors: Zanda Adriana , Lutz Jonas , Heymann Alesya , Bleisch Susanne
Published: December 2019

Atlases have a long tradition of showing and linking information for the exploration of various mostly spatially related topics. The Atlas of the Ageing Society is an interactive platform illustrating age related data. It enables individuals to explore facts and information related to age and the ageing society. To support content representation as well as a diverse audience, we developed the “story network principle”, which embeds annotated visualizations into a network of information in order to allow storytelling with data. Enabling the exploration of such a multifaceted and highly interconnected data landscape, however, posed some technical challenges. This paper describes and discusses a back-end implementation that meets the requirements of the story network principle from a technical perspective. We detail and exemplify the design and implementation of the atlas infrastructure to enable others to benefit from our developments and approaches to the challenges. The story network principle is potentially applicable to a range of applications such as other atlases or digital portfolios.
