“I have faith…”: An exploration of hopefulness in providing care for children with Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD)
Authors: Alias Noor Amiera , Dahlan Akehsan , Azizan Azliyana
Published: November 2017

Mothers who are having children with SpLD may have changes in their hopes since they may experience many dramatic changes in life circumstances. A semi-structured interview was conducted to explore mother's hopes in providing care children with SpLD. The data was analysed using six stages of the interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). The finding revealed that two superordinate themes emerged: "I have faith…" and "I'm expecting…" relating to different perspectives of hopes. A positive hope facilitates positive influence among mothers in providing care children with SpLD. Later, it postulated a better quality of life amongst mother in having children with SpLD.
Applying Persuasive Design Techniques to Change Data Entry Behaviour in Primary Care (Preprint)
Authors: St-Maurice Justin , Burns Catherine , Wolting Justin
Published: November 2017

BACKGROUND

Persuasive design (PD) is an approach that seeks to change the behaviours of users by using design and social influence. In primary care, clinician behaviours and attitudes are important precursors to structured data entry, and there is an impact on overall data quality. This research hypothesizes that PD could change data entry behaviours in clinicians and improve data quality.

OBJECTIVE

Our objective was to use PD principles to change clinician data-entry behaviours in a primary care environment and to increase data quality within a registry system.

METHODS

We performed a detailed systems analysis of the data-entry task by using cognitive work analysis (CWA). We used the results of this analysis with the Persuasive Systems Design (PSD) framework to describe the persuasion context. We identified several PD principles to be introduced in a new summary screen, which became part of the data entry workflow. As part of our experimental design, we defined three data quality measures (same-day entry, record completeness, and data validity) to measure changes in data quality and entry behaviour. We measured the impacts of the new screen with a paired pre/post t-test and generated XmR charts to contextualize the results.

RESULTS

53 users were shown the new screen during their data entry over the course of 10 weeks. Based on a pre-post analysis, the new summary screen successfully encouraged users to enter more of their data on the same day as their encounter. The percentage of same-day entries increased by 10.34% (P < 0.001). During the first month of the new screen, users compensated by sacrificing aspects of data completeness, before returning to normal in the second month. Improvements to record validity were marginal over the study period (P = 0.045). Statistical process control techniques allowed us to study the XmR charts to contextualize our results and understand trends throughout the study period.

CONCLUSIONS

By conducting a detailed systems analysis and introducing new PD elements into a data entry system, we demonstrated it was possible to change data-entry behavior and influence data quality in a reporting system. The results show that using PD concepts may be effective at influencing data entry behaviours in clinicians. There may be opportunities to continue improving this approach, and further work is required to perfect and test additional designs. Persuasive design is a viable approach to encourage clinician user change and could support better data capture in the field of medical informatics.
Public Trust and Regulatory Compliance
Authors: Widaningrum Ambar
Published: November 2017

Several studies have proven that public trust in government improves the level of policy or regulation acceptance and reduce administrative costs. In contexts where trust in government is high, citizens tend to be more willing to voluntarily comply with public policies. This article aims to explore issues of trust and distrust toward government, seen from the aspect of public compliance, both to rules or policies. The level of public trust toward government is expressed by giving its support through its conduct which complies with the existing rules. This study employed a case study research design, which was conducted in Yogyakarta, July 2015 – March 2016. It assessed the government regulation on Traffic and Road Transport and Local Regulation on Street Vendors Management. This study concludes that a number of non-compliant behaviors is a form of low publictrust in government. Disobedience is a representation of government failure to enforce the rule of law which resulted in some of the processes and procedures of public services that have not been followed by people. Level of public trust in the government regulation is an output of a variety of interrelated elements: the performance of the implemented regulation to solve public problems; consistency in the regulation’s enforcement and fairness, and government officials’ behavior, demonstrated through exemplary attitude.

Authors: Vukadinovic Maja , Markovic Slobodan
Published: November 2017

The study investigates the aesthetic experience of a dance performance from the perspective of both the dancers and the audience. The audience observed three short custom-made choreographies that were presented live and then watched the recorded versions, and judged them on an instrument designed to measure the aesthetic experience of dance. The choreographies were performed by six dancers. The dancers judged their own performances as well as the recorded versions of the performances. The analyses revealed that the dancers? aesthetic experience of a dance performance is similar when they perform choreography and watch it on video. On the other hand, the audience showed a higher sensitivity to live performance: they judged the live performance higher on all dimensions of aesthetic experience compared to their video presentation.
Psychometric properties of the Multidimensional Jealousy Scale (MJS) on a Serbian sample
Authors: Tosic-Radev Milica , Hedrih Vladimir
Published: November 2017

The goal of the current study was to examine psychometric properties of the Serbian version of the Multidimensional Jealousy Scale (MJS, Pfeiffer & Wong, 1989). For this purpose, 500 participants, aged 18?40, were asked to complete this version of MJS. In order to examine external validity of MJS, participants were asked to complete The Rosenberg?s self-esteem scale, The Big Five Inventory and the Love Attitudes Scale. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the three-factor structure of the instrument, but required the addition of a number of error covariance arguments to achieve fit. Another model was tested, after which acceptable fit levels were achieved with smaller number of error covariance arguments in the model. Internal consistency of subscales was high. Correlations with neuroticism, self-esteem and mania love styles are consistent with the theoretical expectations and previous results, suggesting good external validity of the instrument.

Authors: Miamoto Cristina B. , Marques Leandro S. , Abreu Lucas G. , Paiva Saul M.
Published: November 2017

Objective:

To evaluate and compare two treatment protocols to correct anterior dental crossbite in the mixed dentition.

Materials and Methods:

Thirty children, 8–10 years of age, participated. Individuals were divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of 15 children treated with an upper removable appliance with finger springs; group 2, 15 children treated by bonding resin-reinforced glass ionomer cement bite pads on the lower first molars. The 30 participants were evaluated before treatment (T1) and 12 months after treatment began (T2). The variables evaluated included overjet, perimeter of the maxillary arch, intercanine distances in the maxilla and mandible, SNA, SNB, ANB, and U1.NA. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, paired t-test and Student's t-test. Effect sizes and confidence intervals were also calculated.

Results:

Group 1 showed a significant increase in overjet (P < .001), intercanine distance in the maxilla (P = .006), intercanine distance in the mandible (P = .031), and U1.NA (P = .002). Group 2 showed a significant increase in overjet (P = .008), intercanine distance in the mandible (P = .005), and U1.NA (P < .001). For all the evaluated variables, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups.

Conclusions:

No significant differences were observed between the two protocols: use of a removable maxillary biteplate with finger springs and bonding of resin-reinforced glass ionomer cement bite pads on the lower first molars, for the correction of anterior crossbite in the mixed dentition.
Las redes sociales digitales como factor de proximidad entre la sociedad y los gobiernos subnacionales en México Digital / Social Networks as a Factor of Proximity Between Society and Subnational Governments in Mexico
Authors: Contreras Orozco Leticia
Published: November 2017

El uso de redes sociales digitales por parte de los gobiernos ha crecido en años recientes y, además, se ha convertido, por una parte, en una oportunidad para acercarse a la ciudadanía, pero, por otra, en un gran reto: ¿Qué redes sociales utilizar y para qué?El objetivo central de este trabajo fue conocer cuáles son las redes sociales más utilizadas por los gobiernos subnacionales en México y examinar la forma en que se usan, así como sus posibles limitaciones. Para lograrlo, se realizó un estudio exploratorio de las páginas web de cada uno de los gobiernos subnacionales para comprobar si en dicho portal se contemplaba a las redes sociales como una forma de poner en contacto a los ciudadanos con su gobierno. Una vez identificadas las redes sociales más utilizadas, se realizó un seguimiento de las publicaciones en Facebook (por ser la más utilizada) durante tres meses de los 32 gobiernos a fin de determinar cómo se usa esta red social.Las redes sociales más utilizada fueron: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube e Instagram. Solo un gobierno subnacional no utiliza actualmente ninguna de estas redes. Sin embargo, a pesar del potencial de estas herramientas, aún no constituyen un mecanismo de vinculación real entre gobierno y ciudadanos. Finalmente, se plantea una propuesta de estrategia para mejorar el uso de las redes sociales por parte de los gobiernos subnacionales.

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar Las Infantas (1998) de Lina Meruane como una recopilación de cuentos integrados que, bajo los preceptos de la estética barroca y neobarroca delineados por Severo Sarduy, se construye como un tejido de entrecruzamientos e hibridaciones entre diversas tradiciones, con un afán crítico y subversivo propio también de la posmodernidad. Lo clásico, sobre todo aquello relacionado con la literatura infantil, se adopta y se adapta a un nuevo contexto.
Adherence to the 24-Hour Movement Guidelines among 10- to 17-year-old Canadians
Authors: Janssen Ian , Roberts Karen C. , Thompson Wendy
Published: November 2017

Introduction

The Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth were
released in 2016. They contain specific recommendations on the daily time that 5- to
17-year-olds should devote to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, recreational screen
time, and sleep. The objective of this study was to estimate the proportion of Canadians
aged 10 to 17 years that meet the recommendations contained within the 24-Hour
Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth.

Methods

A nationally representative sample of 22 115 young people was examined.
Movement behaviour data were self-reported. Adherence to the guideline recommendations
were based on the following: accumulation of at least 60 minutes per day of
moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, no more than 2 hours per day of recreational
screen time, and 9 to 11 hours/night of uninterrupted sleep for those aged 10 to 13 years
or 8 to 10 hours/night for those aged 14 to 17 years.

Results

Only 3% of the sample met all three of the key recommendations contained in
the guidelines. Twenty-five percent met two of the recommendations, 51% met one of
the recommendations, and 21% met none of the three recommendations. More children
and youth met recommendations for sleep duration (66%) than for moderate-to-vigorous
physical activity (35%) and screen time (8%).

Conclusion

A small minority ($lt; 3%) of Canadians aged 10 to 17 years met all three of
the key recommendations contained in the 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for Children
and Youth.
Between worst and best: developing criteria to identify promising practices in health promotion and disease prevention for the Canadian Best Practices Portal
Authors: Fazal Nadia , Jackson Suzanne F. , Wong Katy , Yessis Jennifer , Jetha Nina
Published: November 2017

Introduction

In health promotion and chronic disease prevention, both best and promising
practices can provide critical insights into what works for enhancing the healthrelated
outcomes of individuals and communities, and how/why these practices work
in different situations and contexts.

Methods

The promising practices criteria were developed using the Public Health
Agency of Canada’s (PHAC’s) existing best practices criteria as the foundation. They
were modified and pilot tested (three rounds) using published interventions. Theoretical
and methodological issues and challenges were resolved via consultation and in-depth
discussions with a working group.

Results

The team established a set of promising practices criteria, which differentiated
from the best practices criteria via six specific measures.

Conclusion

While a number of complex challenges emerged in the development of
these criteria, they were thoroughly discussed, debated and resolved. The Canadian
Best Practices Portal’s screening criteria allow one to screen for both best and promising
practices in the fields of public health, health promotion, chronic disease prevention,
and potentially beyond.
LA RELATION TEXTE-IMAGE DANS LE ROMAN GRAPHIQUE "KERMESSE AU PARADIS" DE BIRGIT WEYHE
Authors: SCHNITZER Nathalie
Published: November 2017

The Relation Text-Picture in Birgit Weyhe’s Graphic Novel Kermesse au paradis. Graphic novels are a great success in Germany since the beginning of the 1990s. This paper focuses on the work of a representative of this new generation of authors who are contributing to the renewal of the genre in Germany. The reflexion concerns the complex relationships between text and picture in Kermesse au paradis. Although graphic novels are traditionally perceived as easy readings, intended to a young audience or lay readers, the analysis of the corpus shows that this is not true as far as Birgit Weyhe is concerned. In Kermesse au paradis, the picture is not intended to facilitate verbal comprehension, but to enrich it, whether by strengthening the implied dimension which is already noticeable in the text or by redirecting the interpretation and by raising contents which would not have been understandable without the associated images.
REZUMAT. Relaţia text – pictură în romanul grafic Chermeză în paradis de Birgit Weyhe. Romanul grafic cunoaște un succes remarcabil în Germania la începutul anilor ’90. Acest articol se concentrează asupra activității unui reprezentant al noii generații de autori, care contribuie la renașterea genului în această țară. Reflecția noastră se îndreptă spre relațiile complexe dintre text și imagine în Chermeză în paradis. Dacă banda desenată este în mod tradițional percepută ca o lectură facilă, destinată unei audiențe tinere sau puțin familiarizată cu lectura, analiza corpusului arată că nu un astfel de destinatar este vizat de Birgit Weyhe. În Chermeză în paradis, funcția imaginii nu este aceea de a facilita înțelegerea verbului, ci de a-l îmbogăți, fie prin întărirea dimensiunii implicite deja perceptibilă în text, fie prin reorientarea interpretării și transformarea acestui conținut care nu ar fi fost decodificabil fără imaginile asociate.

Published: November 2017

Comics and Transmission of Recent History: GDR, Fall of the Wall and Reunification. Through the analysis of three examples of graphic novels published recently in Germany, this paper shows how this medium can be an efficient mean for the transmission of the recent German history (life in GDR, fall of the Wall, Reunification) as well as for the discussion of questions such as the life under a dictatorship, the means of resistance, the implications of the choices to obey, rebel or become an accomplice, that individuals make under a repressive regime. The three examples allow us to establish a first typology, taking into account the authenticity and historical research on the one hand, and the educational concern and the actor’s role on the other hand.

WRITTEN ON THE BODY: ‘SOMATIC ELOQUENCE’ AND THE (DE)CONSTRUCTION OF GENDER IN ELIZA HAYWOOD’S “LOVE IN EXCESS”
Authors: GRASL Caterina M.
Published: November 2017

Written on the Body: ‘Somatic Eloquence’ and the (De)Construction of Gender in Eliza Haywood’s Love in Excess. This paper aims to position Haywood’s first novel in relation to its socio-cultural background and its place in the history of emotions. Haywood’s writing is characteristic of the eighteenth-century fascination with emotional expression through bodily signs. Insisting on the impossibility of encoding emotion in language, Haywood focuses on its somatic manifestations, forcing readers to fill the gaps from their own emotional experience. Implementing cognitive approaches to literature and cultural studies, my paper analyses the textual mechanisms that encourage reader involvement and engender sympathy, and shows how, in turn, these strategies elicit bodily displays of feeling in the audience and serve to interrogate and (de)construct established and emerging gender boundaries.
REZUMAT. Scris pe trup: ‘elocvența somatică’ și (de)construirea genului în Love in Excess de Eliza Haywood. Lucrarea de față își propune să poziționeze primul roman de Haywood în raport cu contextul socio-cultural și cu locul pe care îl ocupă în istoria trăirilor interioare. Scriitura Elizei Haywood este reprezentativă pentru fascinația pe care secolul optsprezece o manifestă pentru exprimarea trăirilor interioare prin semne corporale. Insistând pe imposibilitatea codificării emoțiilor în limbaj, Haywood se concentrează pe manifestările somatice ale acestora, obligându-și cititorii să compenseze lacunele cu propria lor experiență emoțională. Prin implementarea abordărilor cognitive în literatură și studii culturale, lucrarea mea analizează mecanismele textuale care încurajează implicarea cititorului și insuflă empatie, demonstrând, în același timp, cum, la rândul lor, aceste strategii stârnesc manifestări corporale ale emoțiilor în rândul cititorilor și servesc la interogarea și (de)construirea diferențelor de gen prestabilite și emergente.

Jan Patočka's Reversal of Dostoevsky and Charter 77
Authors: Majernik Jozef
Published: November 2017

Jan Patočka became politically active for the first time as a spokesperson of the dissident movement Charter 77. In this capacity he wrote several essays, the first of which, entitled "On the Matters of The Plastic People of the Universe and DG 307", I interpret as the explanation and justification of his turn toward political engagement. The following article is a reading of Patočka's essay that pays particular attention to a peculiar formal feature of the essay – namely that it's presented as a reversal of Dostoevsky's short story "The Dream of a Ridiculous Man". In reversing this story, Patočka shows us the two basic ways of human life and explains his political engagement as an action taken on behalf of the properly human way of life, which he calls "life in truth" or "the responsible life". The purpose of his political engagement thus wasn't defending human rights, but defending life in truth, to which human rights provide suitable conditions. "On the Matters…" also presents Patočka's assessment of the Communist regime with clarity and severity not seen elsewhere in his writings, and shows a shift in his views of youth and youthful rebellion.
Max Scheler and Jan Patočka on the First World War
Authors: Sternad Christian
Published: November 2017

The First World War was both an historical and a philosophical event. Philosophers engaged in what Kurt Flasch aptly called "the spiritual mobilization" of philosophy. Max Scheler was particularly important among these "war philosophers", given that he was the one who penned some of the most influential philosophical writings of the First World War, among them Der Genius des Krieges und der Deutsche Krieg. As I aim to show, Max Scheler's war writings were crucial for Jan Patočka's interpretation of the First World War in the sixth of his Heretical Essays. However, the importance of Scheler's war writings goes far beyond the First World War for Patočka, since they offer Patočka a far-reaching interpretation of the 'excessive' character of the 20th century. As I will show through the example of Max Scheler, the German war philosophers succumbed to a dangerously romantic conception of "force" – and it is this ominous force, which Patočka takes to lie at the root of the increasingly excessive character of the 20th and 21st centuries.
Consent and Deception
Authors: Jubb Robert
Published: November 2017

Tom Dougherty has recently defended the claim that all deception that is consequential for sex is seriously wrong. This discussion piece argues that deception does not have to seriously undermine consent and that when sexual deception is seriously wrong, that may not only be to do with its relation to consent. In doing so, it defends distinguishing between the seriousness of deceptions, whether these are sexual or in other areas of life, and so defends what Dougherty calls the lenient view.
Thomson's Trolley Problem
Authors: Graham Peter
Published: November 2017

No one has done more over the past four decades to draw attention to the importance of, and attempt to solve, a particularly vexing problem in ethics—the Trolley Problem—than Judith Jarvis Thomson. Though the problem is originally due to Philippa Foot (“The Problem of Abortion and the Doctrine of Double Effect”), Thomson showed how Foot’s simple solution would not do and offered some solutions of her own. No solution is uncontroversial and the problem remains a thorn in the side of non-consequentialist moral theory. Recently, however, Thomson has changed her mind about the problem. She no longer thinks she was right to reject Foot’s solution to it. I argue that, though illuminating, Thomson’s current take on the Trolley Problem is mistaken. I end with a solution to the problem that I find promising.

The assistance had not absorbed optimally yet for telematics MSMEs. One of the reasons was the data of telematics MSME which still separated in the several institutions. This research aimed to selection of assistance feasibility attributes using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) based on National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) data.  This data attributes conformed to the criteria of assistance feasibility which was implemented among by Ministry of Cooperative, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), and related institutions. The attributes involved the characteristic of technology, economics, human resources, partnerships, obstacles, prospect and other common conditions. The process of data preparation was needed involving cleaning, discretization, description and transformation of data. The AHP technique aimed to produce rankings and the value of attributes. The finding of this research showed that start-up essence and technology factors became the crucial attributes in the feasibility assessment. The other factors were the economy, human resources, partnerships and development planning. The findings of this research had given the new innovations; in addition of the scope of related substance Telematics Service MSMEs which was still studied limitedly, and the selection technique of assessment feasibility attributes based on Susenas data.

A 40.9 m ice core was recovered from Far East Rongbuk Glacier (FER), Qomolangma (Mount Everest), Himalaya, and an 80.4 m core from neighboring East Rongbuk Glacier (ER). Both are dated by seasonal variations of δ18O and major-ionic profiles, together with references of β-activity peaks. In this paper we compare the chemical records of these two cores to show post-depositional modification processes. The smoothed β18O profiles of the two cores show a similar trend. However, the mean β18O value of the FER core for the period 1954—96 is 3.12%o less than that of the corresponding part of the ER core, and the major-ionic profiles of the two cores differ considerably. We suggest that melting-away of the snow layer deposited during the pre-monsoon season may account for lower β18O values of the FER than of the ER core, and higher terrestrial ion concentrations in the FER core for the period 1957-63 may contribute to changes by chemical reactions in the presence of snowmelting. The significantly decreased NH4 and, to a lesser degree, SO42 concentrations in the FER core could be caused by the ion elution process that moved most chemicals away with runoff.
Improvement of ID3 Algorithm Based on Simplified Information Entropy and Coordination Degree

Published: November 2017

The decision tree algorithm is a core technology in data classification mining, and ID3 (Iterative Dichotomiser 3) algorithm is a famous one, which has achieved good results in the field of classification mining. Nevertheless, there exist some disadvantages of ID3 such as attributes biasing multi-values, high complexity, large scales, etc. In this paper, an improved ID3 algorithm is proposed that combines the simplified information entropy based on different weights with coordination degree in rough set theory. The traditional ID3 algorithm and the proposed one are fairly compared by using three common data samples as well as the decision tree classifiers. It is shown that the proposed algorithm has a better performance in the running time and tree structure, but not in accuracy than the ID3 algorithm, for the first two sample sets, which are small. For the third sample set that is large, the proposed algorithm improves the ID3 algorithm for all of the running time, tree structure and accuracy. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is effective and viable.

Published: November 2017

Pelvic radiation for cancer therapy can damage a variety of normal tissues. In this study, we demonstrate that radiation causes acute changes to pelvic fibroblasts such as the transformation to myofibroblasts and the induction of senescence, which persist months after radiation. The addition of the manganese porphyrin, MnTE-2-PyP, resulted in protection of these acute changes in fibroblasts and this protection persisted months following radiation exposure. Specifically, at two months post-radiation, MnTE-2-PyP inhibited the number of α-smooth muscle actin positive fibroblasts induced by radiation and at six months post-radiation, MnTE-2-PyP significantly reduced collagen deposition (fibrosis) in the skin and bladder tissues of irradiated mice. Radiation also resulted in changes to T cells. At two months post-radiation, there was a reduction of Th1-producing splenocytes, which resulted in reduced Th1:Th2 ratios. MnTE-2-PyP maintained Th1:Th2 ratios similar to unirradiated mice. At six months post-radiation, increased T cells were observed in the adipose tissues. MnTE-2-PyP treatment inhibited this increase. Thus, MnTE-2-PyP treatment maintains normal fibroblast function and T cell immunity months after radiation exposure. We believe that one of the reasons MnTE-2-PyP is a potent radioprotector is due to its protection of multiple cell types from radiation damage.
3-D Printed Fabry–Pérot Resonator Antenna with Paraboloid-Shape Superstrate for Wide Gain Bandwidth
Authors: Chen Qiang , Chen Xing , Xu Ke
Published: November 2017

A three-dimensional (3-D) printed Fabry–Pérot resonator antenna (FPRA), which designed with a paraboloid-shape superstrate for wide gain bandwidth is proposed. In comparison with the commonly-adopted planar superstrate, the paraboloid-shape superstrate is able to provide multiple resonant heights and thus satisfy the resonant condition of the FPRA in a wide frequency band. A FPRA working at 6 GHz is designed, fabricated, and tested. Considering the fabrication difficulty caused by its complex structure, the prototype antenna was fabricated by using the 3-D printing technology, i.e., all components of the prototype antenna were printed with photopolymer resin and then treated by the surface metallization process. Measurement results agree well with the simulation results, and show the 3-D printed FPRA has a |S11| < −10 dB impedance bandwidth of 12.4%, and a gain of 16.8 dBi at its working frequency of 6 GHz. Moreover, in comparison with the planar superstrate adopted in traditional FPRAs, the paraboloid-shape superstrate of the proposed FPRA significantly improves the 3-dB gain bandwidth from 6% to 22.2%.
Control Strategies for Enhancing Frequency Stability by DFIGs in a Power System with High Percentage of Wind Power Penetration

Published: November 2017

Nowadays, regarding high percentage of wind power penetration in power systems, operating conditions of power system necessitates wind turbine generators (WTGs) to contribute in frequency regulation of the system, similar to the conventional units. To reach this goal, active power output of WTGs must be controlled, but this issue distances the operating conditions of WTGs from maximum power point tracking (MPPT) mode. This paper initially presents a completed model of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) for dynamic studies in frequency stability analysis. Next, a coordinated control strategy to regulate active power command set point (Pcmd) for individual WTGs in a wind farm (WF) and a control strategy to regulate wind power output of DFIG upon operator’s request is presented. Stability is assured under different wind conditions in the proposed control strategy. Individual WTGs set point allocation is performed applying fuzzy logic controller (FLC), while emotional learning based intelligent controller is used in regulation of the coefficient in the DFIG to reach the best stability conditions. Simulation results, performed on a test system consisting of both conventional units and WTGs, validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy in comparison with other mentioned solutions.

This study proposes an optimization process of the Lithospermum erythrorhizon (LE) extraction with a higher purity of shikonin (SK). The influence of extraction temperature on the concentration of SK is examined, and an in vitro cell viability assay is used to examine the optimal concentration of SK. Afterwards, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/LE solutions at ratios of 90/10, 80/20, and 70/30 w/w are electrospun into LE electrospun nanofibrous membranes (LENMs). The optimal manufacture parameters of LENMs are evaluated based on the test results of in vitro drug release test and cell viability assay. The optimal concentration occurs when the extraction temperature is −10 °C. The purity of the LE extract reaches 53.8% and the concentration of SK is 1.07 mg/mL. Moreover, the cell viability of nanofibrous membranes significantly increases to 136.8% when 0.7 μM SK is used. The diameter of nanofibers of LENM is decreased by 43.9% when the ratio of PVA solution to LE extract is 70/30 (w/w). 80/20 (w/w) LENM has the maximum amount of drug release of 79% for a continuous period of 48 h. In particular, 90/10 (w/w) LENM can create the maximum cell proliferation of 157.5% in a 24-h in vitro cell viability assay. This suggests that LENM has great potential to be used in facilitating tissue regeneration and wound healing.
