ENHANCING ORGANISATIONAL PERFORMANCE IN THE DAIRY INDUSTRY: SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT APPROACH
Authors: Maina Charles , Njehia Prof, Benard K. , Eric Dr Bett Kiprotich
Published: October 2020

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the effects of supply chain management practices on the organizational performance underpinned on resource-based view theory (RBV).

Methodology: The study adopts descriptive and explanatory research design with purposive sampling and quantitative methods to collect primary data through crossed ended questionnaires from 109 dairy co-operatives in Kenya. Data collected was organized and cleaned using both excel and statistical package for social scientist (SPSS). Additionally, partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) techniques were used to analyze data in SmartPLS version 3.2 software, and the results for both descriptive and inferential were presented in tables.

Results: The result revealed that SCMPs has a positive and significant impact on Market performance (β=0.558), operational performance (β=0.371) and customer satisfaction (β=0.543). These results reveal that SCM practices are associated with high levels of organizational performance. Thus, SCM practices explain and predict the organizational performance of the dairy industry in Kenya. 

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study provides evidence of the building blocks of supply chain management practices and a framework of their implementation for performance improvement to the managers in the dairy industry.  Theoretically, the study contributes to the development and advancement of the theory of supply chain management (SCM) as well as validation of the Resource-based View (RBV). Policy-wise, the study provides directions for coming up with policies geared towards performance improvements in the dairy industry.
A Photographic Solo Comedy by Iiu Susiraja
Authors: Jernejšek Jasna
Published: October 2020

The article is a critical analysis of the work of Finnish photographer Iiu Susiraja based on her series Good Behaviour / Perfect Everyday Life and conversation with the author. Susiraja places herself and her personal life at the centre of her work. Her humorous and (self)ironical portraits can be seen as a critical reflection and a sarcastic commentary on socially desirable and to a large extent stereotypical ideas of femininity, beauty ideals, social roles such as being a housewife etc. and the relations of power that are implied in them. Her critique is on the one hand directed at conservative and patriarchal social values, but she at the same time poses a mirror to women who perpetuate these values by obsessively investing into their bodily beauty and who uncritically accept the traditional roles assigned to them. Her work thus addresses the question of the definition of “normality” – which because of her specific humorous approach – is best described as a solo comedy.
Camouflage, or the Temptation of Relationship
Authors: Mubi Brighenti Andrea
Published: October 2020

Usually, camouflage is interpreted within the frame of deceitful communication. Scholars have mainly provided accounts of camouflage based on strategic-tactical sign emissions within the frame of ecological competition. The dominant key is one of antagonism and belligerence, whereby camouflage and camouflage detection are described as a ‘semiotic arms race’. These views are grounded in a utilitarian means/ends scheme of either strategic or tactical nature. By contrast, in this piece, I invite to conceptualise camouflage as the temptation of relation. Approaching camouflage as a specifically social temptation suggests regarding it as something that inherently exists beyond the functional domain. Three illustrations from the art world of photography are provided: Leo Selvaggio’s URME Surveillance Project, Arno Rafael Minkkinen’s Continental Divide, and Matthew Barney’s Cremaster 5.
Perceiving Chameleons
Authors: Bayer Martin
Published: October 2020

For centuries, military uniforms had been colourful to differentiate friend from foe on the battlefield, but also as a distinguishing feature towards civil society. With technological progress and the advent of both aviation and improved photography a century ago, camouflage became a necessity. Artists and zoologists played a huge role in developing camouflage patterns. Today, most nations have a distinct national camouflage, and often, specific services or special forces have their very own uniforms as a sign of distinction. Nevertheless, many patterns can be traced back to the 1930s and 1940s. While fooling an observer is at the heart of military camouflage, it remains to be ambivalent, with its roles ranging from a desired cloak of invisibility to an indicator of power and prowess. In the past decades, camouflage has become synonymous with the military, and simultaneously, a global icon on its own, a political statement and an aspect of fashion.
A utilização da história da ciência e da investigação no ensino de ciências em espaços de educação não formal
Authors: Oliveira Adriano Dias de , Saito Claudia Akemi , Cirilo Ianna Gara , Friolani Poliana
Published: October 2020

Muitos autores legitimam o ensino por investigação em razão do seu potencial de promover a construção do conhecimento científico pelo próprio aluno. Um processo investigativo envolve fatores e habilidades como a realização de observações, proposição de hipóteses, uso de ferramentas para coleta, análise e interpretação de dados, proposição de respostas, explicações e a comunicação dos resultados. Um dos modos de articular o ensino investigativo com a natureza da ciência tem sido explorado por Allchin (2013). Os trabalhos desse autor focam a maneira como o professor deve desenvolver habilidades para ensinar sobre a natureza da ciência (NOS). Neste trabalho discorremos sobre as  especificidades de uma atividade investigativa elaborada na perspectiva da NOS no Museu de Microbiologia do Instituto Butantan. A forma como esses elementos encontram-se organizados evidencia quais são os limites e as potencialidades do uso dessas metodologias em espaços não formais de ensino.

Hypoxia resistance among the agedpatients with chronic obstructive lung disease: possibilities of using hypoxic trains
Authors: Dyba Iryna , Asanov Ervin , Asanova Seviliya , Holubova Juliya
Published: October 2020

Age-related morphological and functional changes in the body lead to the development of arterial hypoxemia, tissue hypoxia and hypoxic changes, which reduces the body's resistance to hypoxia and contributes to the development of lung diseases, in particular chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the elderly. The aim of the study was to clarify the effect of interval normobaric hypoxic training (INHT) on hypoxia resistance in elderly patients with COPD. The survey showed that with an increase in bronchial obstruction, the shifts of blood saturation during hypoxia increase. The course of INHT leads to increased resistance to hypoxia, and also increases the ventilation response to hypoxia in elderly patients with COPD.
Functional age and residual working capacity in pensioners
Authors: Tomarevska Olena , Poliakov Oleksandr
Published: October 2020

This investigation is dedicated to clarifying of physiological mechanisms of labor activity in subjects of a different gender and age with the purpose of a theoretical background of rational usage of human residual performance and rehabilitation of his health. When analyzing the tightness of the relationships, there is a stronger relationship between the residual performance and the calendar age than the rate of functional aging and calendar age. The study of concomitant influencing factors throughout life has been shown that the presence of labor or family migration within the region, within and between states; as well as indicators of the length of service, year, age, and reasons for retirement do not have reliable correlation with the rate of aging. Reliable correlation associations were found with continued retirement at the time of the study; with the year of termination of work; and the size of the total income of the examined individuals -associations in comparison with the relationship with the calendar age have a weaker connection with the rate of aging. With indicators of the class of tension and severity, type of work, class of intensity, class for differentiation of labor according to the ILO classification. Muscle strength and endurance in the women have expressed age dynamics. The muscle strength of the women is significantly slashed at 30-35 of years, and the muscle endurance remains stable up to 55-year’s age. For the men the dynamics of the muscle strength and endurance have no obvious age trend, and mostly depend from lifestyle, physical and labor activity. In functionally young subjects the working physical work capacity is 15-20% higher, compared to an average level, observed when the functional and calendar ages coincide. The age-related decline the physical working capacity in the older workers is decelerated owing to the selection of those who are functionally young and the elimination of those who age prematurely. The physiological capabilities that determine 47.54% of the actual performance of people aged 60 -89 years are reliably due to accelerated aging. Studies have shown high information content of using the indicator of residual performance in people over 60 years of age. A study of residual performance in people over 60 years of age showed that close to 57% of elderly people and 96.7% of senile people need ergonomic innovations in work and life to increase physical independence from outside help and compensate for age-related decline of working capacity.

Authors: Díaz Serna Julio Cesar
Published: October 2020

El cambio climático es un problema importante en la agricultura, y es necesario tomar medidas en diferentes aspectos para reducir sus efectos negativos (altas temperaturas, alto brillo solar, alta evaporación). Como consecuencia del cambio climático, la producción agrícola se verá afectada en un alto porcentaje, específicamente en la reducción del área disponible y en una menor productividad. En los últimos años, el estrés relacionado con el agua ha sido uno de los factores que ha influido negativamente en las actividades agrícolas en la finca Churimal, Roldanillo en el Departamento del Valle del Cauca en Colombia. La metodología consistió en: i) georreferenciación de los puntos ubicados en el área plantada 1, ii) análisis físico de las muestras de suelo en el laboratorio y, iii) la sistematización de los datos obtenidos en campo, mediante las herramientas de ArcGIS. Los métodos de interpolación espacial fueron utilizados en este estudio, apoyado por el software ArcGIS (Arcmap) y su herramienta de interpolación IDW, la cual es práctica, flexible y muestra como es la distribución espacial y la cuantificación de cada variable analizada en ambas capas de suelo y subsuelo. Además, se analizó la evolución histórica de la precipitación anual (2011 a 2016), junto con las propiedades físicas del suelo en el área de estudio. Con base en los requerimientos de agua del cultivo de caña de azúcar, se desarrolló un enfoque teórico de la aplicación de riego en el cultivo de la caña de azúcar.Se obtuvieron resultados que muestran las relaciones entre la planta, el clima y las características del suelo. Por lo tanto, se presentaron mapas que caracterizan las propiedades físicas del suelo en el área plantada. Se analizaron y graficaron los datos históricos de precipitación entre los años 2011 y 2016 y finalmente se determinaron las necesidades en agua del cultivo de caña de azúcar relacionado con el agua existente de la precipitación. Por lo anterior se concluyó que existe déficit hídrico en el cultivo de caña de azúcar en alto periodo de su fenología.

Published: October 2020

As a country with a majority Muslim population, Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr brings its own blessings. Economic activity has increased due to the high consumption of society, especially in related sectors, such as the food and beverage sector. Various studies, both national and international, were conducted to determine how the holiday affects in the capital market. The holiday effect is understood as a difference in yields or stock returns that occur abnormally due to a long holiday compared to other regular holidays. Long holidays in Indonesia occur during Eid al-Fitr. This study aims to determine whether the holiday effect occurs in the Indonesian capital market. Observation of data on the food & beverage sector in the Indonesian capital market was carried out by conducting the One Way ANNOVA test. The results of the calculation show  F = 0.203 and the significance of 0.653 is greater than a = 0.05, so that rejecting H1 is due to no significant influence or no holiday effect on the Indonesian capital market
Transferring Literacy and Subject Knowledge Between Disparate Educational Systems
Authors: Stephens Meredith
Published: October 2020

This is a retrospective longitudinal study of the education of two Australian third culture kids who attended local Japanese schools from preschool to the first year of high school. This is a postmodern account, set in the 21st century, of transition to a radically different educational system. Many postmodern accounts describe obtaining an education in a new country due to migration in order to escape persecution (e.g. Antin, 1997; Hoffman, 1989). In contrast, the current study explores an alternative educational choice made by parents who had relocated to a remote region of Japan for employment. The choice to educate their children locally was due to both an interest in and respect for the local culture, as well as convenience. This account concerns their daughters’ experience of the Japanese public school curriculum from the first year of primary school to the first year of high school, and how this equipped them for the final two years of high school and beyond. In particular, it addresses the ways in which they viewed their learning in Years 11 and 12, and at the tertiary level in Australia, to have been influenced by their experiences of the Japanese curriculum.

SPLIT-SPLIT PLOT ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECTS OF PROCESS PARAMETERS IN THE PRODUCTION OF POLYVINYL CHLORIDE-GRASS COMPOSITE
Authors: OLODU Dıckson Davıd , ALİYEGBENOMA Cyril
Published: October 2020

The interaction of process parameters in the production of polyvinyl chloride-grass composite poses great challenges in the polymeric industries. Most manufacturing processes of injection moulded polyvinyl chloride-grass composite products have been by trial and error due to inadequate knowledge in process parameters and their interactions. This study investigates the effects of process parameters such as percentage by volume of material, material type, barrel temperature and their interactions on the mechanical properties of the produced polyvinyl chloride-grass composite using split-split plot design. The results of the calculated Fisher’s ratio (F_cal) at significant value of 0.05 for the process parameters and their interactions ranges from -855.35 to 1.00, and were presented on ANOVA table. The results obtained shows that these process parameters contribute significantly to the production of Polyvinyl chloride-grass composite in polymeric industries.
No escape from categorization: an insider’s view of compounds
Authors: Nóbrega Vitor Augusto
Published: October 2020

There has been a surge of syntactic research on compounding, joining a large literature on the nature of roots and phase theory. In an attempt to probe into the syntactic domain for idiosyncratic interpretation and to account for lexical integrity effects, some recent studies on compounding have argued that root compounds are made up of two free acategorial roots directly merged in syntax, without undergoing categorization. The main goal of such an approach is to extend the phase domain in order to maintain two uncategorized roots awaiting further Merge operations. When a category head is merged on the top of this compounded structure, it will trigger its Spell-Out, and as a result, both roots will be identified as a single syntactic object for the purposes of movement and binding, and will be assigned a fixed, non-compositional interpretation. In this article, we argue that categorially non-individuated roots are not legitimate LF and PF objects, alongside Panagiotidis (2011, 2014, 2015). Consequently, any syntactic object made up of two or more uncategorized roots will induce formal crashing at the interfaces. We claim that root categorization cannot be analyzed neither as a matter of parametric variation, nor as an optional derivational step. Additionally, we propose that lexical integrity effects can be straightforwardly accounted if we assume that the unifying characteristic of compounds is the presence of a category head merged on the top of two categorized roots. Finally, we claim that non-compositional domains are not determined by categorization. Rather, non-compositionality is assigned at LF, through a set of LF instructions associated with roots in a particular syntactic environment.
Does ellipsis repair Head Movement constraint violations?
Authors: Mendes Gesoel
Published: October 2020

Using English data, I show that Head Movement Constraint violations cannot be repaired by deletion and compare this result with cases of salvation and non-salvation by ellipsis from previous literature. I then consider two possible sources for this lack of repair. The first is to take the Head Movement Constraint as a derivational constraint, and the second is to assimilate it into the Empty Category Principle (Chomsky 1986).
Remarks on some minimalist accounts for Binding
Authors: Rodrigues Cilene
Published: October 2020

The present paper is a reassessment of the empirical and theoretical arguments presented by some of main minimalist accounts for binding. Some if these accounts assume that the binding principles are conditions on LF representations, others argue that they are derived by narrow syntax computations. Despite that, I present some observations indicating that there is not yet a satisfactory minimalist account for binding. The amounted evidence indicates that binding is derivational. However, pragmatics seems also engaged in building coreferentiality.

Etiology and epidemiology of spinal cord injury in Korea
Authors: Shin Heesuk
Published: October 2020

Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is a catastrophic traumatic event that affects the physical and psychological well-being of individuals and results in considerable socio-economic losses. SCI is an incurable condition; therefore, prevention is critical. Thorough understanding of the epidemiology of SCI is essential to implement optimal preventive measures and effectively plan clinical services. The incidence of SCI was 54 and 40.2 cases per million population in the United States and Japan, respectively; however, national statistical data regarding SCI are unavailable in Korea. Considering that the incidence in Korea is similar to that observed in the United States or Japan, it is estimated that 2,000 to 2,500 new cases of SCI are observed in Korea annually. The male:female ratio is 3:1 to 5:1 in most countries and 3:1 in Korea. More than 50% of patients with SCI are aged <30 years at the time of the injury. However, the incidence of SCI is rapidly increasing in elderly individuals and in women. The most common causes of SCI in descending order of frequency include traffic accidents, falls, sports injuries, and violence. Incomplete injury is increasingly being observed in recent times in contrast to a higher incidence of complete injury reported previously. It is important to establish an accurate comprehensive statistical database in Korea, similar to The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, USA.
Evaluation and prognosis of spinal cord injury
Authors: Yoo Jeehyun
Published: October 2020

It is important to perform an accurate neurological assessment using the International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury (ISNCSCI) to judge the prognosis of spinal cord injury patients. We can gauge the prognosis for upper extremity function or gait ability according to the ISNCSCI results. ISNCSCI involves both sensory and motor examination, and it is performed with the patient in the supine position to enable a comparison between the initial and follow-up exams. The sensory exam is performed on the 28 key sensory points of dermatomes for light touch and pinprick. The motor exam is performed on 10 key muscles on each side. The sensory and motor levels for the right and left sides are determined according to the sensory and motor exam results. The neurological level of injury is the most caudal level of the cord at which both the motor and sensory functions are intact. Finally, the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) is determined. AIS A indicates complete injury, and AIS B, C, and D indicate incomplete injuries. Once the sensory and motor levels, neurological level of injury, and AIS scale of a spinal cord injury patient are determined through ISNCSCI, the patient's prognosis can be predicted based on those results. Furthermore, ISNCSCI performed at 72 hours after an injury yields the most significant prognostic factors.
Diagnosis of sarcopenia in primary health care
Authors: Won Chang Won
Published: October 2020

With aging, there is a loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, which leads to an increased risk of falls, fractures, long-term institutional care, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and even mortality. Sarcopenia has been defined as a condition characterized by low muscle mass together with low muscle strength and/or low muscle performance. In 2019, the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) published a consensus paper on the diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia. The AWGS 2019 guideline, in particular, presented strategies for case-finding and assessment, which could aid in the diagnosis of possible sarcopenia in primary care settings. AWGS 2019 proposed an algorithm that recommends calf circumference measurement (cut-off <34 cm in men, <33 cm in women) or the SARC-F (strength, assistance in walking, rising from a chair, climbing stairs, falls) questionnaire (cut-off ≥4), followed by handgrip strength measurement (cut-off <28 kg in men, <18 kg in women) or the 5-time chair stand test (≥12 seconds). Finally, “possible sarcopenia” is defined by either low muscle strength (handgrip strength) or low physical performance (5-time chair stand test). This paper will address the way in which sarcopenic patients can be identified and assessed practically in primary care settings.
Using a coupled large-eddy simulation–aerosol radiation model to investigate urban haze: sensitivity to aerosol loading and meteorological conditions

Abstract. The aerosol–radiation–meteorology feedback loop is the process by which aerosols interact with solar radiation to influence boundary layer meteorology. Through this feedback, aerosols cause cooling of the surface, resulting in reduced buoyant turbulence, enhanced atmospheric stratification and suppressed boundary layer growth. These changes in meteorology result in the accumulation of aerosols in a shallow boundary layer, which can enhance the extent of aerosol–radiation interactions. The feedback effect is thought to be important during periods of high aerosol concentrations, for example, during urban haze. However, direct quantification and isolation of the factors and processes affecting the feedback loop have thus far been limited to observations and low-resolution modelling studies. The coupled large-eddy simulation (LES)–aerosol model, the University of California, Los Angeles large-eddy simulation – Sectional Aerosol Scheme for Large Scale Applications (UCLALES-SALSA), allows for direct interpretation on the sensitivity of boundary layer dynamics to aerosol perturbations. In this work, UCLALES-SALSA has for the first time been explicitly set up to model the urban environment, including addition of an anthropogenic heat flux and treatment of heat storage terms, to examine the sensitivity of meteorology to the newly coupled aerosol–radiation scheme. We find that (a) sensitivity of boundary layer dynamics in the model to initial meteorological conditions is extremely high, (b) simulations with high aerosol loading (220 µg m−3) compared to low aerosol loading (55 µg m−3) cause overall surface cooling and a reduction in sensible heat flux, turbulent kinetic energy and planetary boundary layer height for all 3 d examined, and (c) initial meteorological conditions impact the vertical distribution of aerosols throughout the day.
Coherent diffraction imaging for enhanced fault and fracture network characterization
Authors: Schwarz Benjamin , Krawczyk Charlotte M.
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Faults and fractures represent unique features of the solid Earth and are especially pervasive in the shallow crust. Aside from directly relating to crustal dynamics and the systematic assessment of associated risk, fault and fracture networks enable the efficient migration of fluids and therefore have a direct impact on concrete topics relevant to society, including climate-change-mitigating measures like CO2 sequestration or geothermal exploration and production. Due to their small-scale complexity, fault zones and fracture networks are typically poorly resolved, and their presence can often only be inferred indirectly in seismic and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) subsurface reconstructions. We suggest a largely data-driven framework for the direct imaging of these features by making use of the faint and still often underexplored diffracted portion of the wave field. Finding inspiration in the fields of optics and visual perception, we introduce two different conceptual pathways for coherent diffraction imaging and discuss respective advantages and disadvantages in different contexts of application. At the heart of both of these strategies lies the assessment of data coherence, for which a range of quantitative measures is introduced. To illustrate the versatility and effectiveness of the approach for high-resolution geophysical imaging, several seismic and GPR field data examples are presented, in which the diffracted wave field sheds new light on crustal features like fluvial channels, erosional surfaces, and intricate fault and fracture networks on land and in the marine environment.
Towards the application of Stokes flow equations to structural restoration simulations

Published: October 2020

Abstract. Structural restoration is commonly used to assess the deformation of geological structures and to reconstruct past basin geometries. For this, geomechanical restoration considers faults as frictionless contact surfaces. To bring more physical behavior and better handle large deformations, we build on a reverse-time Stokes-based method, previously applied to restore salt structures with negative time step advection. We test the applicability of the method to structures including sediments of variable viscosity, faults and non-flat topography.
We present a simulation code that uses a combination of arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian methods and particle-in-cell methods, and is coupled with adaptive mesh refinement. It is used to apply the reverse-time Stokes-based method on simple two-dimensional geological cross-sections and shows that reasonable restored geometries can be obtained.
On the importance of snowpack stability, the frequency distribution of snowpack stability, and avalanche size in assessing the avalanche danger level
Authors: Techel Frank , Müller Karsten , Schweizer Jürg
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Consistency in assigning an avalanche danger level when forecasting or locally assessing avalanche hazard is essential but challenging to achieve, as relevant information is often scarce and must be interpreted in light of uncertainties.
Furthermore, the definitions of the danger levels, an ordinal variable, are vague and leave room for interpretation.
Decision tools developed to assist in assigning a danger level are primarily experience-based due to a lack of data.
Here, we address this lack of quantitative evidence by exploring a large data set of stability tests (N=9310) and avalanche observations (N=39 017) from two countries related to the three key factors that characterize avalanche danger:
snowpack stability, the frequency distribution of snowpack stability, and avalanche size.
We show that the frequency of the most unstable locations increases with increasing danger level.
However, a similarly clear relation between avalanche size and danger level was not found.
Only for the higher danger levels did the size of the largest avalanche per day and warning region increase.
Furthermore, we derive stability distributions typical for the danger levels 1-Low to 4-High using four stability classes (very poor, poor, fair, and good) and define frequency classes describing the frequency of the most unstable locations (none or nearly none, a few, several, and many).
Combining snowpack stability, the frequency of stability classes and avalanche size in a simulation experiment, typical descriptions for the four danger levels are obtained.
Finally, using the simulated stability distributions together with the largest avalanche size in a stepwise approach, we present a data-driven look-up table for avalanche danger assessment.
Our findings may aid in refining the definitions of the avalanche danger scale and in fostering its consistent usage.
Blackbird Fly: Paul McCartney's Legend, Billy Preston's Gospel, and Lead Belly's Blues
Authors: Kapurch Katie , Smith Jon Marc
Published: October 2020

This article explores the historical context, inspirations, and legacy of Paul McCartney's 1968 White Album song, “Blackbird.” We discover heretofore unexplored connections to the 1926 pop standard, “Bye Bye Blackbird,” as well as the potential for the Beatles' song to house a civil rights message, the nest McCartney tries to build for “Blackbird” in this century. To appreciate the song's availability for civil rights solidarity, we consider Billy Preston, whose cover aligns “Blackbird” with African American culture during the decades in which McCartney was not telling his “Blackbird” legend. Preston's gospel-infused cover, along with his own bird imagery in “Will It Go Round in Circles,” point toward the theme of flight-as-liberation in African American arts. This bird-theme is also exemplified by the folk ballad “Grey Goose,” famously performed and recorded by Lead Belly, a formative influence on the so-called British Invasion rockers. These connections reveal a thematic and political depth to “Blackbird,” illustrating the song's indebtedness to African American music and other arts.
