Conclusion: Feeling Shame
Authors: Taylor Christin Marie
Published: January 2020

The “laws of King Cotton,” wrote Richard Wright in the midst of the Popular Front–era, “rule our lives” (38). True to a materialist motif, 12 Million Black Voices told the story (in picture and in prose) of the lives of a black working folk. “Black lives matter” was essentially the argument Wright made more than a half a century before the phrase was popularized by a hashtag. But the pervasive focus on materialism set poor black experiences apart from mainstream American feeling even though Wright attempted to render visible the depths of black humanity....
Actus Tragicus and the Making of an Israeli Comics Scene
Authors: Haworth Kevin
Published: January 2020

This chapter shows how Modan co-founded, with Yirmi Pinkus Actus Tragicus, the comics collective that introduced the world to Israeli comics. It explores how the Oslo Accord and the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin increased interest in Israeli culture and helped increase receptivity to Modan and other Israeli artists. It investigates Modan's early stories and her recurring theme of family secrets.
Exit Wounds
Authors: Haworth Kevin
Published: January 2020

This chapter discusses Modan's Jamilti a story of a suicide bombing and a kiss between an Israeli and Palestinian that challenges many taboos of Israeli society. It shows how that story led to Modan's first graphic novel, Exit Wounds. The chapter explores Numi, the complex female protagonist of Exit Wounds, and her relationship with Koby, as they search together for Koby's father in the aftermath of a suicide bombing. It also shows how Modan adapts Hergé's famous clear line style to tell a morally complex and psychologically nuanced story.
After Exit Wounds
Authors: Haworth Kevin
Published: January 2020

This chapter shows how, after Exit Wounds, Modan broadened her work to include comics journalism about an Israel-Gaza conflict, an autobiographical series for the New York Times, and her first solo children's book, which proved to be very popular in Israel. The chapter identifies how Modan's themes are reconfigured in these works, and how she continues to innovate the comics form in these projects. It also shows how her children's book subtly incorporates elements of Jewish and Israeli culture into a fantastic tale in which a little girl teaches the Queen of England how to enjoy a gluttonous meal.
Race and Radio
Authors: Baptiste Bala James , Ward Brian
Published: January 2020

Race and Radio: Pioneering Black Broadcasters in New Orleans explicates the emergence of blacks in broadcasting in New Orleans. The racial integration of changed the medium making it a channel for African American discourse, the music and interviews of local black musicians, and innovative black rhetoric. O.C.W. Taylor was the city's first black radio announcer. He hosted an unprecedented talk show, the “Negro Forum,” on WNOE beginning in 1946 and continuing for 22 years. Doctors, journalists, owners of funeral homes, directors of non-profits, and other professionals spoke. Clergy from various denominations discussed topics such as practical applications of Biblical stories. The guests inspired linked fate among listeners who had never heard African American voices on radio and believed they could also achieve. In 1949, listeners heard the arrival of Vernon "Dr. Daddy-O" Winslow's smooth, articulate, and disk jockey creative voice. The Fitzgerald Advertising Agency hired him to sell Jax beer to the black market using his show “Jivin’ with Jax” broadcast on WWEZ. He interviewed African American artists and played their music. After arriving from Chicago in 1953, Larry McKinley began informing blacks over WMRY of local activities of the Civil Rights Movement in the city. In 1957, he moved to WYLD which morphed into WMRY. This thick historiography situates Race and Radio within theories of racism, ideological hegemony, and marginalization, concepts explaining of why whites locked blacks out of the production and dissemination of media content.
Some Black Broadcasters Spoke Concerning the Civil Rights Movement
Authors: Baptiste Bala J.
Published: January 2020

The verdict is mixed concerning the extent black broadcasters in the city provided interpretation of issues related to the modern Civil Rights Movement between 1954–1968. The black press, owned by African Americans and relatively independent, covered civil rights news locally and nationally. For example Louisiana Weekly in New Orleans provided quotes from speeches, such as those delivered by Martin Luther King, Jr. The paper also published commentary concerning the movement. Nevertheless, broadcaster Larry McKinley produced programming targeting blacks. He was so moved by a King speech in 1957 that he attempted to join the rights group CORE, but could not "turn the other cheek." CORE representatives asked him to go on air and broadcast times and locations of rallies and other public meetings. McKinley also interview foots soldiers such as CORE member Jerome Smith who was terribly brutalized by white terrorists in Birmingham during the Freedom Rides in 1961.
Entertainment Content Required on Black-Focused Radio
Authors: Baptiste Bala J.
Published: January 2020

Black leadership's penchant for non-violence during the Movement was taken seriously in New Orleans. Despite riots in 125 cities after the murder of Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, New Orleans blacks did not engage in widespread civil disturbances. Announcers began playing gospel and hymns and referred to King as the gentle lamb, which contributed to near tranquillity that coalesced with black leadership’s non-violent rhetoric. The emergence of black-focused radio in New Orleans was similar to Birmingham. Later, In 1980, Inter Urban Broadcasting, the first black interest to own a local radio station, arrived, but white owned businesses, such as computer and electronics companies, refused to purchase time from Inter Urban which had acquired WYLD. A white station, WQUE, entered the market and captured black listenership. It broadcast strictly entertainment compared to WYLD which also broadcast news and public service programs. WYLD lost the battle. Blacks tuned into radio to be entertained.
The Friction of Money: Poverty and Failure in Early Faulkner
Authors: Jones Gavin
Published: January 2020

This essay explores Faulkner's early financial struggles with publication in context of the constellation of texts surrounding his short story "Spotted Horses" (1931). These various versions-some published, some unpublished drafts, some rewritten episodes in later novels-vary considerably in their attempts to represent the desperate poverty of an important family in the story: the Armstids. By developing an idea of textual "failure" that encompasses the various contradictions between Faulkner's depictions of the Armstids' special economic failure even among otherwise poor whites, the essay uncovers Faulkner's shifting attitudes toward the impact of money on human identity, personal relationships, and the creative process. Changes in plot detail and formal technique (especially narrative point of view) across different versions of a common story show how Faulkner's reaction to poverty varied from a haunting confusion to a recognition that his own aesthetic material, and economic livelihood, depended on the creativity of poor folk.
Moving Past the Crossroads: Law and Mississippi’s Modern Age
Authors: Ranney Joseph A.
Published: January 2020

Mississippi’s post-World War II legal history consists of two major struggles. The first was the long legal battle between Mississippi lawmakers and federal appellate courts that accompanied the political battle to end segregation (1950-70). The end of legal segregation and voting restrictions empowered black Mississippians and created a new, three-cornered political balance between blacks, white moderates and conservatives. The rise after 1960 of “expressive individualism,” a philosophy that valued individual autonomy over shared public values, triggered the second struggle. The battle between individualists and traditionalists has been fought on many fronts in Mississippi including rights of female and gay Mississippians, abortion rights and debates over the extent to which government may support private schools. Mississippi has mostly sided with traditionalists but has not been a leader on either side.
The “Handiness” of Tradition
Authors: Bronner Simon J.
Published: January 2020

Although acknowledged as being central to the study of folklore and folklife, tradition has been difficult to conceptualize.This chapter identifies a characteristic of tradition that can help-its metaphor of the hand rooted in its Roman customary origins.Whether "handed down," "handed over," or "handed up," tradition into the present day critically conveys the instrumental quality of keeping in touch.
Folkloristic Practices in a Converging Hyper Era
Authors: Bronner Simon J.
Published: January 2020

This chapter suggests a paradigm shift in folklore and folklife studies in the twenty-first century following the "era of communication" and "professionalization of time and space" in the twentieth century. Characterized as a "hyper era" represented by keywords of convergence, practice, and frame informed by digital culture rather than the previous period's analog signification of performance, symbol, and structure, the new epoch signals a turn toward an understanding of social praxis anticipated by intellectual movements in Europe and Asia. The American contribution is theorizing of individualism and organization in everyday life.
On Fanfiction and the Amateur/ Professional Divide
Authors: Ingram Shelley
Published: January 2020

One of the primary criticisms of fandom and fanfiction writers is that they are trespassing on grounds best left preserved for the “professionals.” Their very existence threatens the boundaries between expert and amateur, between trained artists and “usurpers.” This chapter surveys the debates surrounding the proper place of fanfiction and other fan-produced work in the hierarchy of both folklore studies and artistic production in general, arguing that such debates are an interesting corollary to discussions about fraudulent folklore and the amateur folklorist.
A Folkloristics of Death: Absence, Sustainability, and Ghosts in the Film Welcome to Pine Point
Authors: Mullins Willow G.
Published: January 2020

Welcome to Pine Point is a 2011 interactive web documentary about a Canadian town that was physically demolished when the mine closed and residents dispersed. As folklorists, we tend to seek continuation, preservation, sustainability and we see in stories like Pine Point the demise of a folk group in the face of class struggle. “Pine Point” the web video, however, suggests a story and a folk group may be more important in their absence than in their continuation. Putting Welcome to Pine Point into discussion with Jacque Derrida's "hauntology," this chapter explores the preservationism inherent in not only folklore but much of the arts and humanities.
White Folks: Literature’s Uncanny, Unhomely Folklore of Whiteness
Authors: Ingram Shelley
Published: January 2020

This chapter looks at moments of constructed uncanniness and unhomeliness in Russell Banks’s Affliction and Eudora Welty’s Delta Wedding, two American novels in which whiteness is inextricably linked to the creation, through acceptance or rejection, of folk groups. Using critical race theory, this chapter argues that the tendency to exempt the literature of white writers from dominant conversations about folklore and literature helps reaffirm a dangerous hierarchical system of power in which whiteness is marked as absence. It argues through a close read of fiction that whiteness is not absent—instead, it is an identity which is guarded and negotiated through negotiations of folk groups. Banks and Welty both construct a whiteness that has stability and variation, that reacts to the presence of a folk Other, and that becomes part of a vernacular language of identity for those inside, outside, and on the borders of their groups.

The St. Joan of Arc Parade, Gender, and Pride of Place
Authors: Roberts Robin , de Caro Frank
Published: January 2020

This chapter explores the history of the Joan of Arc parade, a women’s enterprise that celebrates the birthday of the famous saint, which happens to fall upon January 6th, Twelfth Night, the traditional commencement of the Carnival season. The parade runs through the French Quarter, concluding at the gilded Joan of Arc statue on Decatur Street (Joanie on a pony). The chapter looks at the feminist aspect of the group, which celebrates this female icon, a woman who spoke truth to power and actively fought against it. The parade also is significant for drawing upon European history in a way that underscores the French heritage of the city.
Reclaiming Life and History: The Amazons Benevolent Society and the Black Storyville Baby Dolls
Authors: Roberts Robin
Published: January 2020

This chapter focuses on The Amazons Social Aid and Benevolent Society and The Black Storyville Baby Dolls. The Amazons is group of breast cancer survivors, both natives and transplants, who provide support to other survivors while celebrating life through costuming and parading. Wearing breastplates and brandishing swords, the group commandeers a militaristic posture that exudes strength and power. While the group’s main focus is social aid and support, the members use Mardi Gras parades to make a public statement of women’s empowerment. The Black Storyville Baby Dolls, also founded by Dianne Honoré, draw directly on the African-American tradition of Baby Dolls, the historical practice of adult women dressing as young girls, in beautiful outfits made of satin, dancing in the streets, and acting tough (smoking cigars). Both groups exemplify the use of Carnival as an opportunity to resist gender and race stereotypes.

What Determines Sukuk Market Development? New Theoretical Insights
Authors: Aman Ameen Ullah , Naim Asmadi Mohamed , Isa Mohamad Yazid
Published: January 2020

In recent past, the Asian economies faced various financial crises, 1997 & 2008, because of underdeveloped or small capital markets. Most of the countries continued to heavily depend on the mere banking system for sovereign and corporate financing needs which made the region repeatedly vulnerable to the crises state. Therefore, the last decade has witnessed the remarkable growth in the alternative arrangement in the form sukuk and bond markets. The academic literature on the topic mainly focuses on bond market ignoring largely the determinants of sukuk market. Using content analysis approach, this conceptual study proposes the theoretical relationships of sukuk with some new possible determining factors along with some other factors which have not received enough attention in the literature. The study focuses on the dynamics of foreign capital inflows, macroeconomic and financial variables with respect to sukuk market development.

It is Jonathan Brown that has researched how process of canonization of Shahih Bukhari collection. In his research, Brown showed that Shahih Bukhari canon (convention measure of hadith authenticity) was established by long process time. Part of its processes is efforts to study critically the collection to discover its measure of hadith authenticity that al-Bukhari, as the author employed it and then to apply the measure to the hadith else. In the other hand, the notion of consensus (ijma’) used in legal scholars discourse of varied schools also played the impor- tant role to result authority of the collection. The authority of the collection also was supported by scholars declara- tion continously from generation to generation. Some of them are Abu Ishaq al-Isfarayani, Abu Nashr al-Wa’iliy and al-Juwaini.

Historical Pesticide Purchases for a New Jersey Apple Orchard from 1931-1936 and 1943-1945 with Notes on Remnant “Legacy” Pesticide Concentrations in Soil
Authors: Moskowitz, et al David
Published: January 2020

For more than a century (1905-1998) the Smith Farm in East Brunswick, New Jersey was well-known. At its peak it was the largest apple orchard in the state. The father and son proprietors, George and Lawrence Smith, were innovators, pioneering new and improved orchard management and apple growing techniques, and were dubbed “Apple Kings” and “Master Farmers” for their work. In 1998, the pesticide purchase records at the farm from 1931-1936 and 1943-1945 were serendipitously rescued from a dumpster. The receipts and other materials provide a historical glimpse of two time periods marked by rapid and significant changes in agricultural pesticides from largely naturally derived, to synthetic, a legacy of World War II chemical innovation. As cutting-edge orchardists, the Smith’s employed and experimented with the most up to date pest control methods of their time and their pesticide purchases reflect that. However, many of the chemicals used at the farm remain in soils for long periods after application. Soil sampling in 1998 identified extensive contamination from these “legacy” pesticides, an issue plaguing orchards across the United States. In 1999, with the oversight of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, the contaminated orchard soils were remediated as part of a process to develop the property for housing. The orchard is long gone now, and in its place there is a housing development known as Apple Ridge Estates (with streets named after apple varieties). The history of the pesticide purchases at the farm may provide an important lesson about how one generation’s innovation may be seen as a subsequent generation’s curse.

Caracterización de las tramas urbanas de la ciudad de Manizales, Colombia (1849-2017)
Authors: Giraldo-Ospina Tania , Vásquez-Varela Luis Ricardo
Published: January 2020

Resumen

Las investigaciones sobre la evolución morfológica de las ciudades colombianas se concentran en ciudades fundadas durante la época colonial española. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue caracterizar las formas urbanas y su relación con los espacios públicos, a partir de la topografía, la transformación ambiental, los procesos de gestión urbana y los desarrollos urbanísticos entre 1849 y 2017. Mediante el uso de un sistema de información geográfica (SIG), se hizo el análisis de superposición de capas, así como el mapa de pendientes y la caracterización de laderas. Se seleccionaron 24 barrios de 114. Como resultado se identificaron 8 tipologías de tramas urbanas, diferenciadas en 5 fases de crecimiento urbano. La trama de damero y los grandes movimientos de tierra se dejaron de emplear desde mediados del siglo XX. Las tramas posteriores tratan de adaptarse a las laderas con menos modificación del terreno, pero sin reducir el riesgo geotécnico. En cuanto al espacio público, muchas de las zonas verdes son laderas con espacios residuales que no cuentan con diseño de espacio público y no permiten el uso recreativo, al contrario de áreas localizadas en topografías planas, que favorecen el uso recreativo y sin tratamientos geotécnicos.

Palabras clave: desarrollo urbano, ecología urbana, espacio público, gestión del riesgo, morfología urbana, ordenamiento territorial, sistema de información geográfica (SIG), transformación ambiental

 

Abstract

Research on the morphological evolution of Colombian cities has focused on cities established in the Spanish colonial era. This article addresses the characterization of urban forms in Manizales. The authors use a geographic information system to obtain a slope map and the slope characterization with layer overlay analysis. Twenty-four out of the 114 neighborhoods of the city were selected, identifying eight typologies of urban networks throughout five phases of urban growth. The checkerboard network and its significant earthwork were discontinued since the mid-twentieth century. The subsequent urban networks try to adapt to the slopes with less modification of the terrain but without a reduction of the geotechnical risk. This interdisciplinary research becomes relevant for urban management insofar as no studies were found that integrate urban networks with slope characterization.

Keywords: urban Development; urban ecology; public space; risk management; urban morphology; territorial ordering; geographic information system (GIS); environmental transformation

Published: January 2020

Marcin Wlazło, The economics of disability and the dis-course of eliminating inequalities and providing equal opportunities. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 25, Poznań 2019. Pp. 33-53. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.25.02

Disability results in certain economic consequences, which are analysed mainly because of the generation of cost. The economic situation of people with disabilities and their families is usually associated with negative effects of neoliberalism, or causing and strengthening social inequality and excluding people unattractive on the market. In this context, the relationship between technological progress, economic growth and diagnostic and therapeutic services are also analysed. The article presents various aspects of the economic discourse focused on disability. The analysis is based on examples that consolidate the traditional image of disability as a factor affecting low economic status, through a description of the market of services and goods for people with disabilities, to examples of economic success achieved by people with disabilities.
Towards a radical life. The social and aesthetic themes in Helen Keller’s activity in defence of humanity

Edyta Nieduziak, Towards a radical life. The social and aesthetic themes in Helen Keller’s activity in defence of humanity. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 25, Poznań 2019. Pp. 229-254. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.25.10

The article is an attempt to describe three biographical motifs of H. Keller, referring to aesthetic experiences (R. Ingarden) caused by various experiences: tactile in contact with sculpture, haptic in contact with music, and literary. The starting point to consider, however, is the category of humanity in the sense of M.S. Archer. The reflexivity characteristic of humanity, combined with the aesthetic experience, makes the themes describe the non-aesthetic experiences of H. Keller. In the analysis, the author used H. Keller’s correspondence, her works, biographical sources, photographs and video recordings.
Polska emigracja w Wielkiej Brytanii – trudne początki edukacji narodowej na obczyźnie
Authors: Jastrzębska-Golonka Danuta
Published: January 2020

Tematem artykułu jest druga polska emigracja w Wielkiej Brytanii i wychowanie narodowe młodego pokolenia: zapoznanie z polskimi tradycjami, polską historią i ideą niepodległości. Celem emigrantów było zorganizowanie polskich szkół, w których dzieci uczyłyby się polskiej kultury, języka i literatury. Idea napotykała jednak wiele trudności, np. łączenie nauki w szkole polskiej i szkole angielskiej, złe warunki lokalowe, brak polskich podręczników, wpływ języka angielskiego, wstyd swojego języka, brak motywacji. Dydaktycy dyskutowali o czasie rozpoczęcia nauki języka polskiego, celach i metodach nauczania, programie, o roli rodziców, formie egzaminu z języka polskiego. Głównym celem edukacji emigracyjnej było nauczenie dzieci szacunku do mowy polskiej i polskiej kultury. Trudności zostały pokonane, o czym świadczy współczesna Polonia, która kształci dzieci w Polskich Szkołach Przedmiotów Ojczystych oraz PUNO i cały czas utrzymuje żywy kontakt z ojczyzną.

Osobowość nauczycieli a ich praca z dziećmi migrantami w szkole podstawowej
Authors: Pamuła-Behrens Małgorzata , Hennel-Brzozowska Agnieszka
Published: January 2020

Research on the personality of primary school teachers and on their level of competence in teaching migrant children, including their own migration experience and their attitudes toward training for better education of foreign pupils, was conducted in 2016, using Big Five NEO-FFI and a questionnaire constructed by the authors (PPNUC). The subjects work in a big Polish city and their school is attended by Ukrainian and Vietnamese migrant children; half of the teachers (called NU) have the migrant children in their classes, the other half do not (NN). The results have shown, among others, that NU teachers have higher extraversion scores than NN and that younger teachers have a more positive attitude toward training programs for educating migrant children.
Agnotologia pedagogiczna. Zarys problematyki. Trzy subiektywne opowieści
Authors: Kwieciński Zbigniew
Published: January 2020

The term „agnotology” was introduced by Robert Proctor. Agnotology is the study on the spread of ignorance, its social scope and impact, causes and effects. The author tried to analyze whether it is possible that ignorance is disseminated by schools, the principal institution of the Enlightenment, i.e. not only of equipping invididuals with broad knowledge, but of taking care of each individual’s ability to judge (critical thinking). The author discusses three examples of deliberate structural changes to indicate that school „reforms” may bring about effects opposite to the intended ones, have an offside effect of belated imitation and widespread side effects, which destroy the entire education system.

Published: January 2020

Günümüzde sağlık sektörü en önemli hizmet sektörlerinden biri durumundadır. Sağlık sektöründe hizmet veren hastanelerin, işletme maliyetlerinin önemli kısmını ilaç giderleri oluşturmaktadır. Hastanelerin daha iyi hizmet verebilmesi için stok kontrolünün sağlıklı yapılması gerekmektedir. Hem maliyet açısından hem de hastalar açısından hayati önem taşıyan ilaçların tespiti ve yönetimi hastanelerin asli görevlerindendir. Hastanelerdeki ilaç stoklarının kontrolünde çeşitli sınıflandırmalar bulundurmaktadır. En çok kullanılan yöntem ABC-VED yöntemidir. Bu yöntemde maliyet, tüketim ve kritiklik sınıflandırma kriterleri dikkate alınmaktadır. Diğer sektörlerde çok kriterli stok sınıflandırmasında tedarikçi ile ilgili faktörler de kullanılırken, sağlık sektöründe stok sınıflandırmasında bu üç kritere yeni bir kriter ekleyen çalışmalar sınırlıdır.

Haftalık, aylık veya üç aylık periyotlarda gözlenebilen zaman serilerinde kendini gösteren, her yıl az ya da çok kendini yineleyen yaklaşık periyodik örüntü mevsimsellik diye tanımlanabilir. Bu örüntünün zaman içersinde sabit kalmayıp, yıldan yıla değişim gösterebilme olasılığı analizini güçleştir. Ekonomik verilerde kendini gösteren mevsimsellik ya zaman serisi analizlerine geçilmeden seriden tamamen arındırılır ya da serinin izlediği temel yol kabul edilir ve bir model içinde açıklanır. Mevsimselliğin modellenmesi anlamına gelen bu görüşten hareket edilen makalede, modellemede kullanılan alternatif yaklaşımlar üzerinde durulmuştur. Deterministik, stokastik ve bütünleşik mevsimsel modelleme yöntemleri ele alınmış, ekonominin reel kesimindeki değişimleri ifade eden sanayi üretim endeksi verilerine uygulanmıştır. 1980.1 -

Evolutionary optimization of sliding contact positions in powered floor systems for mobile robots
Authors: Medvet Eric , Seriani Stefano , Bartoli Alberto , Gallina Paolo
Published: January 2020

Mobile robotics is a rapidly expanding technology due to its potential for increased safety and lower costs. In many applications, power is supplied to the robot through sliding contacts and a powered floor. Deciding the positions of the contacts on the robot is a difficult task: for any position/orientation of the robot, at least one contact has to touch a positive strip and at least one a negative strip. In this work, we tackle the problem using Differential Evolution (DE). We formally define problem-specific constraints and objectives and then describe how to use DE for evolving contact positions that satisfy those constraints and maximize those objectives. We validate experimentally our proposal by applying it to three real robots and by studying the impact of the main problem parameters on the effectiveness of the evolved designs for the sliding contacts.
Applications of nanomaterials in corrosion protection coatings and inhibitors
Authors: Farag Ahmed A.
Published: January 2020

Various methodologies are practically used to control corrosion. Coatings are the most widely used to protect metals against corrosion. However, due to the weak resistance of polymer coating against the penetration of corrosive solution to the metal/coating interface, the long-term corrosion resistance of the polymer coating is reduced gradually. Recently, nanoparticles have been added to coatings to improve their chemical, mechanical and optical properties. Nanocoatings either have constituents in the nanoscale or are made out of layers that are under 100 nm. Nanocoatings are used effectively to lessen the impact of a corrosive environment due to its various preferences, such as surface hardness, adhesive quality, long haul and, additionally, high-temperature corrosion opposition, and to improve its tribological properties, and so forth. Moreover, nanocoatings can be utilized in more slender and smoother thickness, which permits adaptability in equipment design and lower upkeep and working expenses. This review covers applications related to the management of metal corrosion, including the use of nanomaterials to produce high-performance corrosion inhibitors and corrosion-resistant coatings.
Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Shell and Helical Coil Heat Exchanger Using non-Newtonian Nanofluids
Authors: Naik B. Anil Kumar , Vinod A. Venu
Published: January 2020

Nanofluids have gained much attention due to excellent thermal properties. In this study, natural convection heat transfer behavior of three different types of non-Newtonian nanofluids in a shell and helical coil heat exchanger has been investigated experimentally under unsteady state conditions. Nanofluids were prepared by dispersion of Al2O3, Fe2O3 and CuO nanoparticles in an aqueous solution of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) (base fluid). Nanofluids of different concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 wt%) were prepared by dispersing Al2O3, Fe2O3 and CuO nanoparticles in base fluid using probe sonication process. In the present study, the effect of shell-side nanofluid concentration, tube-side fluid (heating medium) temperature and flow rate parameters on heat transfer has been investigated.

Results indicated that the addition of nanofluid has intensified heat transfer as indicated by the higher temperature of nanofluid when compared to base fluid. Out of the three materials used in the study, CuO nanofluid attained the highest temperature because of its higher thermal conductivity. Heat transfer rate decreased with time continuously for all the experimental conditions. Enhancement in heat transfer initially was higher compared to later times. At longer time the enhancement is less due to the lower buoyancy forces prevailing due to lower driving force. A maximum enhancement in heat transfer rate of 29.5 % has been obtained initially. The effect of nanofluid concentration on heat transfer rate with time exhibited different behavior compared to the effect of inlet temperature and flow rate.

Published: January 2020

In this work, Virtual Reference Feedback Tuning (VRFT) based feedback-feedforward controllers are designed for non-minimum phase systems to enhance the disturbance rejection. In model based design methods the feedforward controller is inverse of the plant model reduces the controller performance in the presence of uncertainties. The novelty of the work lies in to design VRFT based controllers independently for the feedforward structure, which decouples set point tracking and disturbance rejection. The optimal filter selection and algorithms to design the controllers were proposed with non-measurable disturbance signal using open loop experimental data. These controllers are applied to discrete time non-minimum phase Flexible Transmission System (FTS) with no load, half load and full load conditions. The simulation study on FTS with feedback and feedback plus feedforward structures evaluates the effectiveness of proposed controllers. The performance indices like Integral Absolute Error (IAE), Integral Square Error (ISE), Total Variance (TV), VRFT Objective Function (JVR) and Fragility Index (FI) are used to compare the controller’s performance. The simulation results indicate that proposed feedback plus feedforward controller is superior to feedback controller.

Published: January 2020

The objective of the study is research on a biofilter existing at a mechanical-biological waste treatment plant in Radom. The paper presents results of research on the filling of the analysed biofilter (moisture, organic matter content, nutrient content, pH, grain size composition, and equivalent diameter), process gases (temperature, humidity and pH, concentrations of the main pollutants - ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, volatile organic compounds, acetic acid, ethanol) and operational parameters (flow rate, height of the biofilter layer, surface load, gas residence time in the filter bed). Irregularities were observed related to biofiltration efficiency, particularly resulting from improperly selected filling material and improper biofilter operation. The technological research permitted the identification of problems and determination of the requirement of performing necessary operational changes. Further works will involve the design, manufacture, and installation of an integrated biofilter with two-stage gas purification process (a classic biofilter and a semi-permeable membrane).

Published: January 2020

Due to the fields in the near-field area of an electric dipole source which is sharply and rapidly varying with distance, a novel approach to introduce an underwater low-frequency excited source is proposed in this paper. The approach is built up to combine the theoretical solution for an electric dipole in a conductive medium with the total-field scattered-field boundary to reduce the error in modeling the source. The spatial distributions of the magnetic field amplitude at a distance of 1 km above the sea surface are discussed. The numerical results verified the accuracy and validity of the approach by comparing with the results of the Sommerfeld numerical integration method.
Intertextuality and Digital Humanities
Authors: Schubert Charlotte
Published: January 2020

Proceeding from the debate on intertextuality, some considerations are presented here for Literary and Historical Studies that suggest a theory-driven approach applying algorithm-based procedures. It will be shown that methodical tensions between qualitative and quantitative approaches can be solved simultaneously in this way. On this basis, the approach combines intertextuality theory with an algorithm-based procedure (here a search based on Word Mover’s Distance).

Authors: Zhuang Chenglong , Chen Yu
Published: January 2020

In recent years, the addition of nanometer materials to concrete materials has attracted a group of increasing number of scholars’ research interests, and nano-SiO2is one of the research hotspots. In this paper, we briefly introduce the influence of nano-SiO2on setting time, slump, shrinkage, durability and mechanical properties of concrete. In addition, this review also includes the microstructure measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the content of various hydration products obtained by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The result shows that the setting time of nano-SiO2concrete is shortened, the slump is reduced and the shrinkage is improved owing to the high activity and nucleation of nano-SiO2. The improvement effect of nano-SiO2on concrete is remarkable, especially in the aspect of enhancing the durability of concrete. It should be noted that nano-SiO2shows limited improvement in the mechanical properties of concrete. In the end, this literature summary explains the macro performance of nano-silica modified concrete through microstructure.
