Authors: NOUR Abdelkader , BENANANE Abdelkader , VARUM Humberto
Published: August 2021

The influence of chained masonry walls, which represents a special case of masonry infill without gap, on the seismic response of reinforced concrete buildings is extremely important due to their wide use in this type of building. We can consider the period of building as the key parameter to study this influence. In this article, we had carried out a comparative study of several 2D models of a multi-storey reinforced concrete building with a brick chained masonry wall using the response spectrum method in the ETABS finite element software, following the prescriptions of the current Algerian seismic code. This study included the use of the number of spans, the span length, the number of storeys, the thickness of the chained masonry wall, the ground soft storey, the openings in the walls, and the short column for studying the influence of these to the walls. The values from the numerical simulation were compared with those from the formula of the period of building, provided by both the Algerian and European codes. Based on the results obtained, we were able to assess the influence of chained masonry walls on the seismic response on this type of buildings. Through this article, we have concluded that these walls have a great influence on the overall behavior of reinforced concrete buildings under seismic loading.
HIGHLIGHTS

Clarify the importance of numerical simulation of chained masonry walls in the design of reinforced concrete buildings
Give recommendations to the current Algerian seismic code for properly design the infilled buildings with chained masonry
Know the great danger marked in the current conceptions, which neglect these walls in the phase of conception
Give to the infilled reinforced concrete buildings an adequate design in case of earthquake loadings

This study was conducted to have a detailed analysis of the geotechnical properties of expansive soil and fly ash from Sipat thermal power plant. It reported the findings of laboratory studies on certain common physical and geotechnical properties. The chemical properties and morphology of the black cotton soil (BCS) and fly ash is also determined using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction test. The geotechnical test includes determining specific gravity, particle size distribution, moisture content, standard proctor test, free swell index, and Atterberg’s limit. The different compositions of expansive soil with fly ash, yellow soil, moorum, and sand are studied. BCS was evaluated with fly ash, fly ash and sand, BCS with yellow soil, and moorum and fly ash. The study also analyzed the details and results of different tests conducted on soil samples. The results showed that strength and fly ash are inversely proportional; as fly ash increases, strength decreases, and vice versa. Fly ash was added from 20 to 80 % by replacing expansive soil by weight. The results indicated that expansive soil can be stabilized by the addition of fly ash to a limit of 10 to 20 %.

HIGHLIGHTS

The XRD And SEM results shows the mineral present in the FlyAsh and Expansive soil

E-learning: An effective mode of teaching English as a Second Language
Authors: Yumnam Rosy
Published: August 2021

The benefits of e-learning in teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) are huge. The outbreak of the dreaded COVID19 pandemic has forced schools, colleges and universities to temporarily remain closed to fight the contagion. E-learning or online learning is a learning method which has been employed in such a difficult scenario to continue the teaching-learning process. E-learning uses various tools and systems to optimize the teaching-learning process through online platforms. For teaching ESL, the teachers should explore collaborative learning, communicative language teaching, and communicative task-based language teaching to enable learners to effectively participate in the e-learning process. The use of these approaches engages the students to interact and perform the assigned tasks enabling them to effectively learn the language in the online platform. The paper explores the various e-learning practices into making effective teaching of English as a second language. Various e-learning tools like the internet, video conferencing platforms like Zoom, Google Meet and Webex, Google Classroom, YouTube, podcast and vodcast, online-boards, mobile phones, and social networking sites like WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter are explored to efficiently teach English as a second language. Further, the study investigated and analyzed an ESL classroom where various e-learning tools are used.
An Improved Atmospheric Corrosion Prediction Model Considering Various Environmental Factors
Authors: Ji Zi-Guang , Ma Xiao-Bing , Zhou Kun , Cai Yi-Kun
Published: August 2021

There are obvious differences in the corrosion process of materials in different climatic regions, and it is of great significance to establish the corrosion process model considering the effects of environmental factors to improve environmental adaptability. However, many existing models do not take comprehensive environmental factors into account, and the selection of environmental factors in these corrosion models is not sufficiently investigated. Meanwhile, the comparison of models is also based on goodness-of-fit. In order to improve the atmospheric corrosion prediction model and use an improved method to judge the suitable model instead of traditional goodness-of-fit, this paper first studies the effects of various atmospheric environment factors on corrosion loss. Then a corrosion prediction model considering the influence of various atmospheric environment factors is proposed, and the fitting effect is compared with the previous model with experimental data. Considering that the best fitting cannot guarantee the best prediction, a new criterion of model selection is also proposed for corrosion model confirmation. Corrosion prediction results reveal that the proposed model is more effective than the existing models. Finally, the influence of the environmental factors on the model output is discussed by sensitivity analysis.

Published: August 2021

Residual stress is a contributor to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and a common byproduct of additive manufacturing (AM). Here the relationship between residual stress and SCC susceptibility in laser powder bed fusion AM 316L stainless steel was studied through immersion in saturated boiling magnesium chloride per ASTM G36-94. The residual stress was varied by changing the sample height for the as-built condition and additionally by heat treatments at 600°C, 800°C, and 1,200°C to control, and in some cases reduce, residual stress. In general, all samples in the as-built condition showed susceptibility to SCC with the thinner, lower residual stress samples showing shallower cracks and crack propagation occurring perpendicular to melt tracks due to local residual stress fields. The heat-treated samples showed a reduction in residual stress for the 800°C and 1,200°C samples. Both were free of cracks after >300 h of immersion in MgCl2, while the 600°C sample showed similar cracking to their as-built counterpart. Geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density analysis indicates that the dislocation density may play a major role in the SCC susceptibility.

Psoriasis is a chronic dermatological condition that cause scaly red patches on the different parts of body. It always tends in cycles of months wherein winter aggravation is most common then it subsides for a while then again relapse or remission. The exact identity of the factors causing psoriasis is not established but the fact that T cell activates the release of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, interferon-γ and IL-2 has been identified. Cytokine, TNF- α plays a key role in keratinocyte proliferation and other vascular changes in psoriasis. TNF-α protein levels has been found on higher side in psoriasis lesions, intraepidermal Langerhans cells and dermal dendrocytes. The available treatment options for suppressing TNF-α are given only by IV/SC route like adalimumab, infliximab and etanercept also costlier and give only symptomatic relief for a shorter period of time. Hence, we need a pharmacologically active, therapeutically safe and cost-effective agent for long term use. Against all the available data, Spironolactone an aldosterone antagonist has been found to fulfill all the necessary conditions to be used as TNF- α antagonist, a noticeable suppressive effect on TNF- α receptor along with several pro-inflammatory cytokines. Such findings encouraged beginning of clinical studies of spironolactone as TNF- 𝛼 antagonist in patients with psoriasis.

Published: August 2021

Background: This study aimed to determine the serum levels of lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes (LDH1, LDH2, LDH3, LDH4, and LDH5) and their contribution to the total lactate dehydrogenase enzyme elevation observed in COVID-19 patients. Design of study: This study was conducted in collaboration between Al-Nahrain University/College of Medicine/Chemistry and Biochemistry Department and Al- Yarmouk Teaching Hospital, Baghdad, Iraq. The study included 90 patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection: 45 with severe symptoms, and 45 with mild symptoms during the period from February 2021 to June 2021. The different LDH isoenzymes (LDH1, LDH2, LDH3, LDH4, and LDH5) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Results: This study showed high correlation between total lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) enzyme and disease progression and severity in patients with COVID-19. The study also showed significantly higher levels of the lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes (LDH1, LDH3, and LDH4) in patients with severe symptoms. Conclusion: This study suggests that elevation of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients with COVID-19 may be associated with the release of more than one of LDH isoenzymes into the bloodstream, therefore the use of total LDH as a specific biomarker for lung affectation in patients with COVID-19 is not specific, but the assay of all LDH isoenzymes could give a better understanding of the tissues most affected by the virus.

Published: August 2021

The microstrip patch array antenna is usually designed as a broadside radiator. The radiating area of the patch can be of any planar shape from elliptical to square, but rectangular is preferred over other shapes. When elements of antenna are repeated, it is called as an array of antennas. When the distance between antennas is reduced, mutual coupling effect occurs. This effect occurs when the distance between the antennas is less than 0.5and this affects the gain and efficiency of the antennas. This effect can be reduced by using metamaterials. To reduce the mutual coupling between the antenna elements the metamaterial structure is artificially designed to obtain negative permittivity and permeability using HFSS and the results are verified using MATLAB. These metamaterials are placed between the patch elements of 1×2 circularly polarized array antenna when the distance between the patches is 0.2 for both RT duroid and FR4 epoxy substrate for 5GHz resonant frequency.

Samuel, un juez penitente al servicio de Mefistófeles, Iustitia y Verité
Authors: RAMÍREZ VÉLEZ ALEJANDRO
Published: August 2021

En este ensayo se aborda la relación que existe entre el rol del juez y el cine, a partir de un cortometraje realizado por Martín Agudelo Ramírez titulado Un guardián frente al espejo. Se procurará esbozar las dificultades a las que se enfrenta un juez en la dirección de un proceso que está mediado por la constante disyuntiva entre verdad, la justicia y el derecho. Para tal efecto se analizan textos filosóficos y películas que tienen relación con el saber jurídico. Se muestra cómo, a partir del principio del juez tropos y de la reflexión en torno a la moral y al sentimiento de justicia, los juristas pueden afrontar y despejar algunos obstáculos epistemológicos y pragmáticos presentes en la labor de las autoridades jurisdiccionales. Igualmente, se contrasta la situación de lo que se ha considerado como «decisiones justas» frente a las dificultades que surgen del arraigo al planteamiento normativista del Estado decimonónico.

RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN COMMUTER CYCLING PREVALENCE IN POLAND AND SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
Authors: Piątkowska Monika , Biernat Elżbieta
Published: August 2021

The study aims to analyses the prevalence of the Polish adult population in cycling in terms of their socio-demographic characteristics. This can make an important contribution to the dissemination of this environmentally, socially and economically sustainable form of physical activity, and in building national recommendations. The study was based on the representative data from the Ministry of Sport and Tourism of the Republic of Poland from five large-scale surveys in years 2014-2018. The sample comprised 7,347 Poles aged 15-69. In each survey long version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire was used. The independence tests and non-parametric test were applied to search for statistically significant difference between the studied variables. In order to capture relationships between commuter cycling prevalence and a set of explanatory variables, a predictive model was built. The prevalence of the Polish adult population in commuting by bicycle systematically increases (in 2014 ̶ 16.3%; in 2015 ̶ 17.4%; in 2016 – 21.5%; in 2017 ̶ 19.9%; in 2018 ̶ 29.8%). The average energy expenditure of this effort is also increasing. Poles most often cycle 1-3 times a week (17.7% once a week; 23% ̶ twice a week; 18.2% ̶ 3 times a week). There are no statistical differences in this regard, neither by the number of cycling days nor by the gender. Hierarchically, the most important factor in determining whether someone does or does not commute by bike, is age. People who are the most probable to cycle are those aged 15-29 (30%), and among them, people living in villages (35%), with primary education (42.6%). In the 30-59 age group, 20.6% are active. They are usually from the countryside (24.3%), mostly women (27%). Among people aged 60 or more, 14.2% cycle. Most often they are men (17.3%). National recommendations should be developed for individual age groups. Educational and motivational programs (scope depending on age), practical classes increasing the self-confidence of bicycle traffic participants and activities improving the bicycle infrastructure (including the implementation of intermodal transport) are necessary.
IMPACT OF ACTIVE REHABILITATION ON WHEELCHAIR DISTANCE IN MEN WITH SPINAL CORD INJURY AT THE CERVICAL OR THORACIC LEVELS
Authors: Wendt Michal , Banio Adrianna , Waszak Malgorzata
Published: August 2021

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of Active Rehabilitation (AR) on wheelchair distance in men with spinal cord injury (SCI) at the cervical or thoracic levels.
The research group consisted of 30 men with cervical or thoracic SCI. All the participants completed the "1st level" rehabilitation camp in Spała (12 days). A modified Cooper test was used twice: the day before and the day after the AR camp. AR had increased the distance covered in a wheelchair in men with thoracic (18%) and
cervical (29%) SCI. The percentage of change in the Cooper test result due to AR has a statistically significant dependency on the degree of impairment of spinal cord function according to the ASIA scale (parametric test: p=0.0131, nonparametric test p=0.0018). The level of SCI does not significantly differentiate this variable (parametric test: p=0.3418, nonparametric test p=0.0673). Contrary to expectations, men with SCI at cervical level improved more, which suggests that AR is a valuable therapeutic component in the rehabilitation of patients with SCI. The wheelchair distance improvement due to AR depends more on the degree of impairment of the spinal cord function than on the level of the SCI itself.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various forms of physical activity (PA) among male students in physical education (PE) programs offered by universities in Poland, Hungary and the United Kingdom. The study involved 200 full-time male university students (mean age: 19.86±0.82), enrolled in nine different PA programs. The participants’ anthropometric traits and body composition parameters were determined with the InBody analyser. Based on the students’ physiological parameters, the effectiveness of various types of PA was measured with Suunto. Ambit3 peak heart rate monitors during 60 minutes of physical exertion. The average values of body mass, body mass index (BMI), body fat mass (BFM), percent body fat (PBF), waist hip ratio (WHR), and visceral fat (VFL) were significantly (p<0.05) lower in students who performed
jogging, followed by sauna (JFBS) and martial arts than in the remaining PA groups. Minutes of difficult and very difficult intensities were highest in martial art students, followed by jogging students, and they were significantly (p<0.05) higher than the values noted in the remaining PA groups (golf, bodybuilding/fitness, swimming, general PE classes, cycling and individual training). Physiological parameters were significantly (p<0.05) lowest in golf players and students who trained individually. Martial arts and JFBS are the most effective types of PA among male university students. Students performing martial arts and JFBS were characterized by the lowest relative, body fat, whereas students who practiced swimming had the highest body fat levels in the population sample.

Authors: Kantanista Adam , Borowiec Joanna
Published: August 2021

The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between adolescents’ frequency of participation in physical education and physical activity and their amount of screen time. The study included 1,502 girls and 1,379 boys aged 14–16 years. We measured the participants’ frequency of participation in physical education classes, physical activity, and sedentary behavior by means of a questionnaire-based survey. We found that
participation in physical education classes was associated with higher levels of physical activity in boys and girls, less time spent on electronic devices in both genders, and less time devoted to watching TV in girls. Girls participated in physical education classes more often, had lower levels of physical activity, and spent less time on sedentary activities than boys. In conclusion, increasing the frequency of participation in physical education
classes may be an effective strategy for reducing physical inactivity and sedentary lifestyles in adolescents.

Assessments are often unable to assess what is really meant to be graded, even it seems that it is just giving a score. In fact, a real assessment is needed according to the results shown by students. This study aims to analyze the planning and implementation of authentic assessments as well as the obstacles faced in Islamic religious learning at SMP Negeri 4 Pematangsiantar. The study used a qualitative descriptive study, collecting data through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques through data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The results of the study explain that the planning of authentic assessment is done by first compiling an instrument based on the learning objectives that have been set, but in this case the teacher only modifies the instrument that has been approved by the curriculum development team of the city education office. Implementation is carried out by applying performance learning such as fardhu kifyah practice, ability tests in the form of non-tests, or observation sheets. Some of the obstacles faced by the large number of students who want to be assessed, personal value bias, difficulty in scoring management. The point is that authentic assessment is in accordance with the characteristics of Islamic education learning which does require performance-based or practice-based assessments.

Teaching and Learning of Chemistry: The Hybridity of Third Space Approach
Authors: Kampamba Royda
Published: August 2021

This article explored diversity and hybridity in the third space as a teaching resource. Students bring to the classroom or third space their diverse sociocultural issues, knowledge levels of chemistry, and socioeconomic status. Educators also bring to the third space their university knowledge and culture. Hence, a classroom or third space is a hybrid. The intersection of the students’ activity systems and educators’ activity systems created a third space. Activity systems are social practices that include the norms, values, divisions of labour, and community goals. The study intended to explore the negotiations by chemistry educators and first-year students in teaching-learning of acids-bases reactions. It is a topic that most students experience challenges from secondary school to graduate level. Acids-bases are one of the threshold concepts. Qualitative research was employed in the study. Data were collected through classroom observations. A thematic approach was employed to analyse data. Five chemistry educators and their classes were purposely sampled. Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) was employed to unpack group dynamics in a Zambian university. Interactions in the learning spaces generated constraints, tensions, diversity, and affordances for both educators and students. The findings suggest that hybridity may be a resource in teaching acids-bases threshold concepts. Educators should understand students’ knowledge and cultural diversities. Researchers can investigate how students’ different acids-bases knowledge levels can promote success in chemistry.
Human Mobility Towards Turkey: A Retrospective Endeavor to Understand
Authors: ILIK BİLBEN Merve Suzan
Published: August 2021

Last decade, Turkey experienced the most extensive migration raids in its history. The transition of Turkey from a migrant-sending country to a transit and target country is one of the most referenced periodization practices in the literature. However, Anatolia has a history of migration with very different experiences by its location. Human mobility is inherent to the structure of this geography, even though its quality and quantity have changed and transformed in the historical process. Therefore, it is important to understand that Turkey, which is home to the most significant number of forced migrants in the twenty-first century, is historically a country of migration. Hence, in this article that attempts to understand human mobility towards Turkey, we have focused on Turkey's changing position on the international migration scheme after summarizing the migration flows before and during the republic period to capture the holistic perspective. Based on the current research, reports, and statistical data, this article seeks a better understanding of the possibility and sustainability of social cohesion and integration in Turkey, in a global world characterized by uncertainties, risks, and pursuits.
