Madera, hormigón, composición y sistema
Authors:   , Noetzly Christian
Published: November 2020

La arquitectura proyectada por Mario Soto y Raúl Rivarola, en la provincia de Misiones, se recorta contra la provincialización de los territorios nacionales, la vinculación entre Estado y arquitectura; el entrecruzamiento entre técnica y política; el proceso de “invención de las tradiciones”, la “cuestión nacional”, el dilema de los estilos y el debate por la elección de los espacios cívicos representativos para la expresión de los “lenguajes nacionales”. Es posible estudiar, a través de su obra, las múltiples discusiones que tensaban la disciplina, atravesada por las transformaciones políticas, económicas y culturales. El escenario geopolítico nacional, producido por la formación de nuevas provincias, en concomitancia con un mundo que se reconstruía luego de la segunda posguerra, introdujo nuevos temas y necesidades. La arquitectura debía brindar respuestas a las demandas de una sociedad que exigía incorporar a sus edificios, criterios de serialidad, indeterminación, flexibilidad y crecimiento ilimitado. Una generación de arquitectos, surgida en los inicios de 1950, debió enfrentarse a los desafíos que este escenario les propuso. Motivando la reestructuración de su proceder disciplinar, puesto en tensión por una mirada que descubría una modernidad incipiente, confrontada por una formación atravesada por un academicismo debilitado. Estableciéndose un espacio de transición, parafraseando a Banham, una “zona de silencio”, en la que se sucedieron interesantes transformaciones. Si una de las problemáticas de la década de 1950, es el pasaje de la grilla estructural a la resistencia por forma, la arquitectura de Soto y Rivarola, ofrece un claro ejemplo de este debate. El caso de las escuelas y las hosterías, oficia de prototipo de estructura resuelta a partir de una retícula de madera; mientras que la cubierta de la escuela en Leandro N Alem, aporta el modelo de estructura plástica construida en hormigón armado. Se verifican múltiples cambios en la reflexión disciplinar y en el modo de concebir el proyecto. Variados temas jalonan la práctica profesional: el pasaje de un pensamiento bidimensional a uno tridimensional en la concepción de edificios. La disolución del imperativo: programa y forma. La aparición de una arquitectura de partes funcionales ensambladas, vinculadas a partir de ejes materializados por las circulaciones. La supervivencia de los conceptos de “partido” y el repertorio “beaux arts” tamizados por nuevos requerimientos, permiten vislumbrar la problemática y contradicciones de los períodos de cambio. Partido, Carácter, serialidad e indeterminación, pero también “Madera, Hormigón, Composición y Sistema” son los grandes temas que atravesaron la época y la arquitectura de Soto y Rivarola. Ellos brindaron ajustadas respuestas, conformándose en verdaderos intérpretes de las demandas que el momento exigía, produciendo una arquitectura de profunda modernidad, anclando permanencias vestigios y referencias, en un presente que necesita redescubrirlas.

Students are individuals who are studying well in tertiary institutions. During the academic process, students will complete the final project at the undergraduate level of the thesis called the final student. Students must continue the final project to complete their academic education. One problem that arises in the final student is anxiety. Anxiety is an emotional response that arises due to some stressors of students while working on their thesis such as feeling confused, low motivation, difficulty in solving problems when facing thesis. One popular complementary therapy for overcoming anxiety is mindfulness therapy. Vigilance therapy can reduce difficulties in encouraging awareness and not reactivating the surrounding situations. This study aims to study whether there is support for mindfulness therapy for anxiety in the final year students of STIKes Wira Medika Bali. This type of research is a pre-designed research in the form of one group research before the test. The population of this research is the active students of class VII of class 9. The technique of taking the sample of the study was using porpusive sampling with Wilcoxon test. The results obtained were significant p-value = 0.002 which means p-value <α = 0.05, the results of the analysis showed there were differences in levels of anxiety before and given mindfulness therapy to final-level students. Based on the results of the study, attention therapy is suggested as an alternative therapy in an effort to help final students.
Data Collection in Sensor-Cloud: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: Ali Ihsan
Published: November 2020

The integration of cloud computing and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to create Sensorcloud helps in extending the data processing capability and storage capability of WSNs. Knowing how weak
WSNs are with regards to communication ability, how to collect and upload sensory data to the cloud in
limited time has become an issue in Sensor-cloud. In the last decade, with increasing interest by researchers
in the domain, a considerable amount of research works have been conducted and published in the research
domain. The main objective of this study is to systematically review the current research on data collection
in Sensor-cloud. Hence, the study also aims at identifying, categorizing, and synthesizing important studies
in the field of study. Accordingly, an evidence-based methodology is utilized in this study. By doing so, 43
relevant studies were identified and retrieved to answer the formulated research questions. The systematic
methodology offers a methodical and rigorous study selection and evaluation process that is repeatable
and precise. The result shows that research on data collection in Sensor-cloud is relatively consistent with
stable output in the last five years. Ten proposal contributions were identified with System, Framework, and
Algorithm being the most used by the selected studies. In conclusion, key research challenges and future
research directions were identified and discussed for researchers to propose effective solutions to the existing
challenges. Although research on data collection in Sensor-cloud is gaining some traction in recent years,
the works in the domain are not sufficient and concrete proposals are needed to improve data collection.
Powered Knee and Ankle Prosthesis with Adaptive Control Enables Climbing Stairs with Different Stair Heights, Cadences, and Gait Patterns
Authors: Hood Sarah , Gabert Lukas , Lenzi Tommaso
Published: November 2020

Powered prostheses can enable individuals with
above-knee amputations to ascend stairs step-over-step. To accomplish this
task, available stair ascent controllers impose a pre-defined joint impedance
behavior or follow a pre-programmed position trajectory. These control approaches
have proved successful in the laboratory. However, they are not robust to
changes in stair height or cadence, which is essential for real-world
ambulation. Here we present an adaptive stair ascent controller that enables
individuals with above-knee amputations to climb stairs of varying stair
heights at their preferred cadence and with their preferred gait pattern. We
found that modulating the prosthesis knee and ankle position as a function of the
user’s thigh in swing provides toe clearance for varying stair heights. In stance,
modulating the torque-angle relationship as a function of the prosthesis knee
position at foot contact provides sufficient torque assistance for climbing stairs
of different heights. Furthermore, the proposed controller enables individuals
to climb stairs at their preferred cadence and gait pattern, such as
step-by-step, step-over-step, and two-steps. The proposed adaptive stair controller
may improve the robustness of powered prostheses to environmental and human
variance, enabling powered prostheses to more easily move from the lab to the
real-world.

Salerno: il porto e le metamorfosi del waterfront
Authors: Russo Maria
Published: November 2020

The port of Salerno, one of the largest on the Tyrrhenian coast, was implanted in the Middle Ages west of the city. Deteriorated over time due to neglect and serious problems of cover-up afflicting the area, it was replanted after the unification of Italy, creating a closed basin with the mouth turned to the east. The wrong orientation and the massive landfill phenomena supervening, led to the severe erosion of the eastern beach, on which it stood the city. In order to cope with the phenomena, in the last decades of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, multiple defense interventions were carried out by sheltered cliffs that filled the coast with the total metamorphosis of the coastal strip.
Spatial configurations and flows in the morphogenetic processes of settlements. A planning experience on the Tuscan coast.
Authors: Saragosa Claudio , Chiti Michela
Published: November 2020

The effects of climate change are appearing before us and show the fragility of settlements that are no longer able to manage natural phenomena and therefore their increasingly effect on them. The process of morphogenesis of cities has sedimented spatial configurations, which over time have lost the ability to manage a dynamic balance with the metabolism of the reference environment. The contribution presents a research study aimed at the planning of the Tuscan coast, in which, a novel methodology is proposed for the regeneration of patterns no longer able to manage the current metabolic flows.

Published: November 2020

The main objective to this work is to establish a relationship between shoreline evolution and sediment wear. The shoreline evolution trend is similar to of the results obtained by the accelerated particle wear test (APW). However, the relationship between the number of APW test cycles and the years of shoreline evolution is not clear. In Guardamar beach the ratio (years/cycles) is 9.7, in Marineta Casiana beach (it is 5.6, and in Arenal beach it is 3. Differences may be due to the different mineralogical composition and morphology of the sand particles.

Impact of cliff erosion on marine sediment composition - indication of local coastline evolution (Vrgada Island, Croatia)
Authors: Pikelj Kristina , Furčić Nina
Published: November 2020

Erosive coastal cliffs formed in soft-rocks sediments along the generally carbonaceous Eastern Adriatic are a rare feature. The one from the Vrgada Island gave rise to the idea that local seabed surface sediment may reflect the composition of the cliff sediment. First results of sedimentological analyses showed that sediment samples collected on both sides of the cliff contain material eroded mostly from the eastern side of the cliff. Subsequent longshore drift caused by dominant waves likely sort fallen material, transporting its finer fractions to the northern side and further into the sea.

The 7 years monitoring-conservation-information program in the special B zone of Ieranto bay (belonging to the Marine Protected Area Punta Campanella - Naples, Italy) shows good results in terms of reducing illegal activities (such as illegal fishing, unauthorized boating, pollution and anchoring) and promoting environmental awareness for visitors. This 3-way management model represents one of the best practices of the MPA that could be applied to other MPAs in order to improve the correct usage of a protected area and to decrease/control the illegal actions and protect the environment
5 anni di monitoraggio, controllo e prevenzione della pesca illegale nel Parco Sommerso di Gaiola (Golfo di Napoli)

The Gaiola Underwater Park is a small Marine Protected Area located in Naples (Italy), funded in 2002 to preserve the biological and archaeological heritage. In fact, because of the metropolitan context in which it is integrated, the area is subject to constant anthropic pressure, which often results in illegal activities, especially in the fishing sector. In this work, the results of 5 years of monitoring and control of illegal fishing inside the MPA are presented. This research had an important impulse in 2015, thanks to the collected data and to the methodology developed within the Gaiola MedPAN Project. The experience acquired in these years resulted in the funding of the StAMM Project, a permanent station for the monitoring, control and prevention of environmental offences in the MPA.
Renewable power sources in coastal areas. A viability assessment in the scope of needs and regulations
Authors: Bono Andrea , Marini Martino
Published: November 2020

The work deals with renewable energy project, in the context of the deregulated energy market. Special attention is focused on renewables and on the situation in Italy from the standards point of view. The set up of a wind farm and a PV plant in coastal Sardinian area for both electricity and desalinated water production is studied. The convenience of fuelling desalination plants through renewables is investigated by taking into account additional on-side trading instruments. A model to simulate the operation wind and PV systems is applied both to calculate the produced energy and to assess the performance of a desalination plant, namely a reverse osmosis plant driven with PV and wind sources that works in a small island site.
Careening areas in marinas, anchorages, and private shipyards. Status of implementation of the MSFD measure
Authors: Droit Julie
Published: November 2020

Ship careening, which consists of stripping antifouling paint, generates waste. These residues contain different chemical contaminants that can have an impact on the marine environment. The implementation of the Marine Environment Strategy Framework Directive has been declined through the adoption of Action Plans. Cerema was mandated by the Ministry of Ecology to carry out a national study identifying the level of equipment in fairing areas of marinas, anchorages and private shipyards. The data collected are available on the Geolittoral site: www.geolittoral.developpement-durable.gouv.fr

Published: November 2020

This study focuses on the use of remote sensing to generate coastal erosion risk maps for Pianosa Island (Tuscany) and Piscinas dune system (Sardinia). The method made use of both ancillary and satellite data (Sentinel-2), in addition to SAR images (COSMO SkyMed and Sentinel-1B). TOA radiance products were atmospherically corrected and processed using Sen2Coral and BOMBER in order to map different marine substrates and bathymetry. The coastal erosion risk maps have been generated based on these output and the results confirm that the coasts of these sites don’t have coastal erosion problems.
Are teachers agents of change? Teacher training and the gender dimension in adult education: Italy and Nigeria in comparison
Authors: Simeon-Fayomi Bolanle C. , Guerrini Valentina , Tonelli Denise
Published: November 2020

Adult education can play a fundamental role in changing existing gender hierarchies, breaking down gender stereotypes, and promoting gender equality. Teachers can be important agents of change, but they not only have to be aware of their behaviours, attitudes, and views, they also have to be able to understand the specific needs and interests of learners, to use gender-based methods, and to implement practices free of gender stereotypes.
In order to do this, adequate education and training are needed, but both in Italy and Nigeria, gender issues are not part of the education and training curriculum, and much remains to be done for raising awareness of this issue.
Fostering critical reflection in the frame of transformative learning in adult education: Italian and Nigerian comparative case studies
Authors: Akinsooto Tajudeen , Tino Concetta , Fedeli Monica
Published: November 2020

Critical reflection (CR) is an important process for making decisions on complex issues that influence individuals and societal life. The ability to inform our perceptions and thoughts through the results of critical reflection on our assumptions is fundamentally important in order to face the challenges connected to adult life (Kreber, 2012). Under the perspective of transformative learning (Mezirow & Associates, 2000), the paper discusses the similarities and differences between the ways in which the Italian and Nigerian higher education systems support students’ critical reflection. The results show how the two systems are on the right track to implementing the process at the micro and meso levels.
Advertising Adult Education Offerings in a Portuguese Qualifica Centre using Social Networking Tools
Authors: Silva Geraldine
Published: November 2020

In the context of adult education, Qualifica Centres throughout Portugal are responsible for the dissemination of adult education pathways available to adult learners. There is a huge variety of dissemination tools. Leaflets, informational notes in the region's newspapers, establishment of partnerships, advertising spots on the radio, and the use of social networks are some of the methods used by centres. This paper on good practices outlines the advertising efforts made by the Qualifica Centre of Azambuja using social networking, specifically the centre’s Facebook account, and their results.
The Community Education Program: A reflection on good practice in the USA
Authors: Douglas Miriam
Published: November 2020

This good practice essay puts the Community Education Program (CEP) as a focus for comparison between West Virginia (USA) and Germany/European Union (EU). The essay is a combination of reflections on qualification frameworks, learning outcomes, lifelong learners/learning, transnational organisations, the Scottish Framework, a number of good practices, and accreditation from a research and practical perspective. Despite substantial research efforts, a national qualifications framework (NQF) or accrediting body for the CEP could not be identified in the US. The goal is to continue research on a national and international level. In the meantime, the good practice efforts, established through various features, continue to apply.
Bahasa Dan Kebenaran Menurut John Langshaw Austin
Authors: Widyarsono Antonius
Published: November 2020

Abstrak: John Langshaw Austin menjadi terkenal sebagai filosof Lingkaran Oxford yang menekankan pentingnya tuturan performatif. Namun dalam artikelnya “Truth” (1950) ia menggunakan teori korespondensi dalam memahami masalah kebenaran. Austin mengkritik Strawson yang menggunakan teori deflasioner tentang kebenaran berdasarkan analisis mengenai pentingnya tuturan performatif. Dalam tulisan ini akan dijelaskan mengapa Austin lebih memilih teori korespondensi dari pada teori deflasioner dalam memahami kebenaran. Juga akan ditunjukkan sumbangan khas Austin yang membarui teori korespondensi umum yang menggunakan metafora “cermin” dan “peta” realitas dengan menekankan sifat konvensional ide korespondensi. Menurut penulis, hal ini merupakan suatu usaha yang serius dan berguna dalam mengartikulasikan cara kita menggunakan simbol-simbol bahasa yang ditentukan secara sewenang-wenang untuk merepresentasikan realitas dunia.

 

Kata-kata Kunci: Kebenaran, teori korespondensi, teori koherensi, teori deflasioner, teori tindak-tutur, aspek ilokusioner bahasa, tuturan deskriptif, tuturan performatif, konvensi deskriptif, konvensi demonstratif.

 

Abstract: John Langshaw Austin is an “Ordinary Language Philosopher” of Oxford, who is famous for emphasizing the importance of performative statements. In his article, “Truth” (1950), however, he used correspondence theory for understanding the problem of truth. Austin criticized Strawson, who uses the deflationary theory of truth that is compatible with the analysis of performative utterances. This article will explain why Austin chooses the correspondence theory of truth rather than deflationary one. It will also elaborate Austin’s specific contribution in changing the version of the correspondence theory, which uses the metaphor of “mirroring” or “mapping”’ the world, to a conventional correspondence theory. It is, in my opinion, a serious and notable attempt to articulate our use of arbitrary symbols in the representation of brute reality.

Keywords: Truth, correspondence theory, coherence theory, deflationary theory, speech-act theory, the illocutionary aspect of language, descriptive utterance, performative utterance, descriptive convention, demonstrative convention.
