Sociedades del ruido
Authors: Pinzón Garrido Juliana
Published: May 2019

En el presente escrito se plantea una crítica al excesivo ruido de las sociedades en la era de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (tic). Para ello se propone una ampliación del concepto de ruido que permita incluir el exceso de información propiciado por el alcance omnipotente de las tic, así como una revalorización del silencio que posibilite configurarlo como condición del pensar libre. Con miras a dichas ampliaciones conceptuales se recurre a José Gimeno y Paul Virilio para delinear los perfiles de la relación entre las tic y la vida cotidiana, mostrando cómo la creciente dependencia e influencia de la tecnología es una característica cada vez más dominante de la sociedad, que posibilita una comunicación e información excesivas, incesantes, que cada vez se insertan más profundamente en la vida y se niegan a dejarnos solos ni un instante. Posteriormente, para repensar la relación entre ruido y silencio, se acude al músico y filósofo John Cage y a Friedrich Nietzsche. Con su ayuda se establece una relación entre el silencio y el pensamiento. Finalmente, aludiendo al concepto de sociedad de control propuesto por Hardt y Negri en Imperio, se afirma que el ruido que caracteriza a las sociedades contemporáneas puede ser visto como otro modo de control social y político.

Authors: Rivera-Godoy Jorge Alberto , Mamián-Cerón Lizeth Carolina , Rojas-Zapata Cristhian Andrés
Published: May 2019

La investigación que se sintetiza en este artículo tiene como objetivo conocer los factores que influyen sobre el valor económico de la industria de confecciones en Colombia, durante el período 2010-2016, siguiendo como metodología un análisis de los indicadores contables y de valor económico agregado que miden su crecimiento, eficiencia, eficacia y efectividad. Los indicadores contables evidencian que esta industria fue exitosa porque creció y generó rentabilidades contables en cada uno de los años; la variabilidad anual de su efectividad dependió principalmente de la eficacia en la gestión de costos y gastos. Sin embargo, se encontró que destruyó valor económico agregado (EVA) en cada año porque el costo de los recursos financieros fue superior a la rentabilidad del activo neto operacional, lo cual arrojó como saldo un valor de mercado agregado negativo en el septenio. La destrucción de EVA fue fluctuante, resultado de variaciones en la utilidad operacional después de impuestos y en el costo de capital presentadas bajo un continuo crecimiento del activo neto operacional. Los hallazgos podrían fortalecerse si se realizaran estudios similares para grupos de empresas más homogéneos en cuanto al tamaño, edad y ubicación geográfica.

Adsorptive removal of cationic malachite green (MG) dye from aqueous solution in a continuous TU-poly(AN-coAA) packed-bed column was studied. The influences of solution pH (2-9), inlet MG concentration (25-80 mg/L), bed depth (4-8 cm) and linear flow rate (1.5-5.0 mL/min) were investigated via assessment of the column breakthrough curves. Low pH and short bed depth, high MG concentration and flow rate led to early breakthrough of MG. According to correlation coefficients (R2) and sum of the squares of the errors (SSE) values, Thomas and Yoon-Nelson dynamic models are more suitable to describe the column experimental data compared to the Bohart-Adams model. TU-poly(AN-co-AA) exhibited effective separation of MG from the liquid phase and displayed high adsorption capacities after five regeneration cycles.

With the broad application of dry dedusting of blast furnace gas (BFG), the issue of BFG pipeline corrosion comes up because of chlorine in the BFG. Existing methods in preventing the corrosion, such as spraying alkali or installing corrosion-resistant materials, require a significant amount of investment. This paper conducted a novel thermal analysis of the corrosion mechanism to support the study on corrosion prevention without using additional materials. Firstly, thermal models were established to reflect the relationships among the amount of condensation water, the mass transfer rate, the concentration of chloride ion and the ambient temperature. Secondly, the relationship between BFG temperature and the corrosion rate was obtained via a cyclic exposure experiment. Key factors that affect the pipeline corrosion under various BFG temperatures were identified. Finally, a control scheme of the BFG temperature was proposed to avoid the chlorine corrosion.

Low cycle fatigue is the most important failure mode in Aviation/Industrial engine rotary turbine parts. In this paper, the influence of Pt-aluminide coating parameters on high temperature low cycle fatigue behavior of superalloy Rene?80 which is used to manufacture turbine blades, has been investigated. For this purpose, initial platinum layers of different thicknesses (2?m and 8?m) were coated on fatigue specimens. Then the aluminizing process was performed with two conditions of low temperature-high activity and high temperature-low activity. The results of microstructure investigations performed by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction phase analysis indicated a three-layer structure for the coating (bi-phase (Ni,Pt)Al+PtAl2, single-phase (Ni,Pt)Al and interdiffusion zone) with different chemical compositions at both thicknesses of the platinum layer and using both aluminizing methods. Also, the results of low cycle fatigue tests at 871?C, R=0 and strain rate of 2?10 -3 s-1 showed a decline in fatigue properties in coated specimens as compared to uncoated sample, at total strains of 0.4, 0.8, and 1.2%. This reduction was lower in the low temperature-high activity with platinum layer thickness of 2?m, while it was more significant in the high temperature-low activity with the platinum layer thickness of 8?m. The fractography studies on coated and uncoated specimens indicated a mixed mode of ductile and brittle fracture.

The CCT and two DCCT diagrams were constructed for the HSLA steel containing Cr, V, Nb, and N microadditions, taking into account industrial processing parameters of this material in a seamless tubes rolling mill. The typical finish hot rolling temperature of 1173 K was used for the construction of the standard CCT diagram and the effect of previous austenite deformation at this temperature was evaluated in the DCCT diagram. Another DCCT diagram was developed after heating at 1553 K, followed by plastic deformation at 1173 K. The prior austenite grain size in the hot rolled material after heating at 1173 K was approx. 10 ?m, the heating of the as-cast material at 1553 K resulted in the prior austenite grain size over 200 ?m. The effect of the previous austenite deformation after low-temperature heating on the CCT diagram was negligible. The high-temperature heating showed a great influence on the austenite decomposition processes. The Ferrite-start temperature was significantly reduced at high cooling rates and the preferred decomposition of coarse grained austenite to acicular ferrite suppressed the bainite transformation at medium cooling rates. The developed DCCT diagrams can be used for the prediction of austenite decomposition products during the cooling of the seamless tubes from the finish rolling temperature. The CCT diagram can be utilized for the quality heat treatment of tubes.

Background/Aim. The influenza virus is often the cause of exacerbations among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, especially during the winter season. However, vaccination rates are still below recommended even in developed countries. The aim of the study was to determine the rates and examine the effectiveness of immunization against seasonal influenza in preventing exacerbations among COPD patients in Serbia. Methods. The prospective cohort study of stable COPD outpatients was conducted over three years (between October 1, 2014, and September 30, 2017) at the Polyclinic Department of Institute for Pulmonary Diseases of Vojvodina, Sremska Kamenica, Serbia. The rates and effects of seasonal flu vaccination on COPD exacerbation rates were evaluated using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, taking into account comorbidity, age, and body mass index (BMI). Results. The study included 840 patients. The flu vaccination rate was 37.1%. Exacerbations occurred more frequently in unvaccinated patients [176 (31.9%) vs. 375 (68.1%), p = 0.043]. In elderly vaccinated patients (? 65 years) there were fewer exacerbations compared to unvaccinated patients [89 (56.0%) vs. 188 (69.4%), p = 0.005]. Lower frequency of exacerbations was also observed in vaccinated patients with comorbidities [165 (61.1%) vs. 327 (69.4%), p = 0.021] and low BMI [27 (64.3%) vs. 78 (83.9%), p = 0.011]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified BMI < 21 kg/m2 [relative risk (RR): 0.490; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.318?0.758; p = 0.001] and heart failure (RR: 2.734; 95% CI: 1.121?6.669; p = 0.027) as independent predictors of COPD exacerbations. Conclusion. Immunization for seasonal influenza in Serbia is below recommended rates. Flu vaccination was associated with a significant reduction in COPD exacerbation rates, particularly in elderly patients and patients with heart failure and low BMI.

Pembangunan infrastruktur jalan yang melalui wilayah kabupaten merupakan kegiatan pembangunan multi pihak dan multi dampak, sehingga pemerintah harus memperhatikan banyak aspek apabila melaksanakan pembangunan. Dalam rangka mencapai tujuan perencanaan pembangunan infrastruktur jalan, diperlukan partisipasi atau keterlibatan seluruh masyarakat sebagai pelaku pembangunan. Keikutsertaan masyarakat dalam pembangunan adalah kesadaran yang tidak bisa muncul dengan sendirinya, oleh  karena itu kesadaran tersebut harus dibimbing dan diarahkan dengan dukungan peraturan perundang-undangan yang tersistem dalam kerangka hukum nasionalIsu strategis yang menjadi permasalahan pokok perencanaan pembangunan infrastruktur jalan yang terjadi selama ini adalah : adanya inkonsistensi antar kebijakan, rendahnya tingkat keterlibatan para pelaku dan partisipasi masyarakat, ketidakselarasan antara perencanaan program dan pembiayaan, kurang transparan dan kurang efektifnya penilaian kinerja kebijakan. Secara umum mekanisme perencanaan pembangunan nasional, daerah, dan sektoral harus disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan, karakteristik, kondisi, potensi daerah, yang selanjutnya secara bertahap perencanaan pembangunan sektoral dan daerah menjadi bagian dari perencanaan pembangunan nasional. Perencanaan pembangunan sektoral, khususnya pembangunan infrastuktur jalan, tidak terlepas dari sistem perencanaan pembangunan nasional, karena perencanaan pembangunan sektoral yang dibidangi oleh kementerian negara maupun pemerintah daerah melalui mekanisme yang sama dengan sistem perencanaan pembangunan nasional. Kata kunci : Pembangunan infrastruktur jalan, pembangunan nasional
TRUMP’S BORDER WALL: THE FLURRY LOSS OF IMMIGRANTS’ RIGHTS AND RESHAPING IMMIGRATION LAW
Authors: Febriyanti Irma
Published: May 2019

Penggunaan istilah “hak asasi manusia Amerika Serikat (AS)” selalu mendatangkan kebingungan yang samar dan sering kali juga kerugian. Hal ini terjadi karena pengertian kontemporer advoksi hak asasi manusia telah terlibat pelanggaran kritik di negara lain dan klaim mereka atas pelanggaran hak asasi manusia yang diarahkan oleh AS, bukan kepada pemerintah AS itu sendiri. Presiden terpilih AS, Donald Trump, mendeklarasikan serangkaian kebijakan dalam dan luar negeri yang berkaitan dengan pelanggaran hak asasi manusia yang selama beberapa tahun terakhir ini telah mengalami kebuntuan. Salah satu kebijakan tersebut adalah U.S. - Mexico border wall (tembok perbatasan AS - Meksiko) yang telah ditandatangani sebagai perintah eksekutif untuk “penghalang fisik yang tidak bisa dilewati” pada tanggal 25 Januari 2017 dan bersikeras agar Meksiko akan mengganti Amerika atas biaya tersebut. Tindakan ini menyebabkan pelanggaran hak asasi manusia dimana berbagai macam negara secara global telah serius menentang hal ini dan juga bahkan berusaha untuk memperebutkan hak asasi mereka atau warga negara lain yang membutuhkan dukungan.
