Alexithymia is associated with lower confidence in both perceptual and emotion recognition tasks
Authors: Torunsky Nathan , Vilares Iris
Published: September 2020

Emotions play an important role in everyday decision-making, but emotional awareness can vary greatly between people. Alexithymia, a trait characterized by little or no awareness of one’s emotions, is broadly associated with poor mental health and increased risk of suicide. Alexithymia is fairly common, affecting as much as 10% of people in Western cultures. Understanding how alexithymia relates to decision-making may therefore have wide-reaching impacts on the quality of life for many individuals. We designed and preregistered a study that examined the relationship between alexithymia and decision-making across different task-types. Data were collected from a community sample (N = 123) and participants completed a social, an emotional, and a perceptual decision-making task, as well as a short alexithymia questionnaire. For each task, we considered multiple aspects of the decision-making process, examining participants’ accuracy, confidence, and metacognitive ability (i.e. the ability to retrospectively distinguish between correct and incorrect responses). We found no relationship between alexithymia and performance or metacognitive ability in any task. However, alexithymia was negatively correlated with confidence in both the perceptual and emotional tasks. Furthermore, confidence in one’s decision was strongly, positively correlated across task types, but both accuracy and metacognitive ability showed no relationship between tasks. These results suggest that confidence may be a trait-like, affective component of decision-making, while performance and metacognitive sensitivity appear more task-specific. Furthermore, our results challenge the current limitations of the alexithymia construct, suggesting that alexithymia may have consequences on cognitive processes beyond emotion recognition alone.
Age Inclusive Human Resource Practices, Age Diversity Climate, and Work Ability: Exploring Between- and Within-Person Indirect Effects
Authors: Rudolph Cort , Zacher Hannes
Published: September 2020

To address the challenges imposed by demographic change, organizations have become increasingly interested in maintaining and improving employees’ work ability across the working lifespan. Based on signaling and social exchange theories, we present a study that investigates the indirect influence of age inclusive human resource practices on work ability through age diversity climate. Using a six-wave longitudinal study of n = 355 employees, we model between- and within-person mediated effects using a random intercept cross-lagged panel model. The results of this analysis partially support our mediation hypothesis. Specifically, we found evidence that age diversity climate mediates the influence of age inclusive human resource practices on work ability at the between-, but not at the within-person level of analysis. These findings have implications for the development of human resource practices that benefit employees at various ages.
Analysis of the relationship between porosity and permeability in reservoir modeling using the petrophysical rock type approach
Authors: Salindeho Lena Maretha
Published: September 2020

The carbonate reservoir is one of the reservoir characters found in hydrocarbon fields in Indonesia. Carbonate reservoirs have complex porosity and permeability relationships. So it is necessary to do a special reservoir character that is different from the siliciclastic reservoir. Efforts that can be made to assist the development of this hydrocarbon field are to analyze the reservoir character in more detail using the petrophysical rock type (PRT) approach. This approach is used by combining geological elements such as the depositional environment, the petrophysical properties of the rock, as well as the fluid flow in it which is reflected by capillary pressure and water saturation. Modeling with this method is expected to be a method that can increase hydrocarbon production optimally in Xena Field. The object of research from Xena Field is Zone A2 which is included in the Parigi Formation. The Parigi Formation is one of the main hydrocarbon-producing reservoirs. The data used in this study are routine core analysis (RCAL) rock data on JLB-07, JLB-08, JLB-02, JLB-23 wells, wire log data (gamma-ray log, resistivity log, density log, neutron log) of 30 wells, and 2D seismic data. The depositional facies are divided into 2 facies, namely the margin reef platform facies and the interior platform facies. Identification of rock type (RT) using the flow zone indicator (FZI) method. The rock type in this field can be divided into 4 rock types, namely RT 1, RT 2, RT 3, RT 4 with RT 1 being able to drain the best fluid and RT 4 to drain the worst fluid. Reservoir property modeling is controlled by facies and rock type (RT) models. The margin reef platform facies are associated with RT 1 and RT 2. The interior platform facies are associated with RT 2 and RT 3.
Making theComing HomeMap

Published: September 2020

To mark Canada 150, the Canadian-American Center at the University of Maine released a new map, Coming Home to Indigenous Place Names in Canada. The map is intended to honour Indigenous place names in Canada and the assertion of Indigenous authority through place naming. It was made possible by permissions and contributions from First Nation, Métis, and Inuit communities, organizations, and language speakers. In this article, we explain how and why this map came to be made at the Canadian-American Center. We examine the methods we used to request and include place names and how this process in turn informed the design of the visual language of the map.
Decolonizing World Heritage Maps Using Indigenous Toponyms, Stories, and Interpretive Attributes
Authors: Palmer Mark , Korson Cadey
Published: September 2020

Maps and GIS used for the nomination and subsequent management of UNESCO World Heritage sites have primarily served bureaucratic resource management purposes. However, bureaucratic maps offer an opportunity to represent associative cultural landscapes, intangible cultural elements, and the geographies of Indigenous peoples. Indigenous toponyms can be found on many World Heritage maps for sites located within settler societies such as New Zealand, Australia, the United States, and Canada. Currently, bureaucratic heritage maps do not emphasize or even have a method for presenting the meaning and significance of Indigenous toponyms. Instead, the names are represented as static, inanimate objects void of meaning. This article presents archival evidence that bureaucratic state maps found within some UNESCO World Heritage nomination dossiers and resource management plans contain Indigenous cartographic elements that Indigenous communities could use as the basis for creating Indigital story maps.
Every Bus Stop a Tomb: Decolonial Cartographic Readings against Literary, Visual, and Virtual Colonial Claims to Space
Authors: Hunt Dallas
Published: September 2020

This article offers a decolonial reading of digital counter-mapping processes through an engagement with settler artist Sylvia Borda’s art installation, “Every Bus Stop in Surrey, BC.” By putting the theories of Michel de Certeau and Walter Benjamin into conversation with the research and insights of Indigenous feminist theorists Audra Simpson and Mishuana Goeman, I examine how counter-mapping efforts may contribute to and normalize the (settler) colonization of everyday life. I analyze Borda’s cartographic art project in order to illuminate the dispersal and (dis)placement of peoples in and across (virtual) urban spaces and examine how the experiences of these population distributions contribute to resistive artistic projects, and simultaneously how these art installations can reproduce settler colonial erasures, with Borda’s installation being an illustrative example. Using Borda’s text as a representative case, I advocate for the cultivation of a decolonial sensibility when engaging with digital cartography.

Published: September 2020

As long as VVER-440 reactors exist, their fuel design is subject to ongoing improvement. Efforts to find the optimal fuel design continue and encompass increasingly extending ranges of both geometry and material parameters of fuel assemblies. This paper presents the results of optimized radial enrichment profiling for RK3+ fuel assemblies and discusses whether it is absolutely necessary to use burnable absorbers (Gd2O3 rods) in fuel assemblies suggested for prospective fuel cycles. Regarding RK3+ and RK2 fuel assemblies, this paper also presents thermohydraulic data yielded by computations performed using SC-1 certified software for a VVER-440 seven-assembly core fragment. These computations show that - compared to RK2 assemblies of the same capacity - RK3+ assemblies with optimized enrichment profile have more uniform radial temperature distributions and lower maximum outlet temperatures.
Validation of new CMS5-VVER nuclear data library using critical experiments and X2 full-core benchmarkjh
Authors: Ferrer Rodolfo M. , Bahadir Tamer
Published: September 2020

Studsvik’s in-core fuel management code package CMS5- VVER, which includes the CASMO5-VVER lattice physics code and SIMULATE5-VVER three-dimensional nodal code, is currently in use for VVER-1000/1200 reactor analysis. Recently, a new commercially available CASMO5 nuclear data library has been generated based on the ENDF/B-VIII.0 evaluation. The ENDF/B-VIII.0 evaluation represents the state-ofthe- art in nuclear data and features new incident-neutron cross section evaluations from the CIELO project for 1H, 16O, 56Fe, 235U, 238U and 239Pu. A summary of the main features and validation of the new ENDF/B-VIII.0-based data library, referred to as E8R0 library, is presented in this work. Comparisons of predicted criticality and fission rate distributions to measurements from various hexagonal-lattice critical experiments, such as the ZR-6 (TIC) and P-Facility, show excellent agreement between the E8R0-based calculations and measurements. In addition, validation results are presented for CMS5-VVER using the new E8R0 library and the X2 VVER-1000 benchmark problem. These results indicate that the E8R0 library provides comparable accuracy to E7R1 results for the various reactor physics parameters such as critical boron concentration, temperature reactivity coefficients, and control rod worth.
Simulation of subcooled boiling in multiphase CFD code CFX / Simulation des unterkühlten Siedens im Mehrphasen-CFDCode CFX
Authors: Vyskočil L. , Železny V. , Zácha P.
Published: September 2020

This paper presents a validation of multiphase computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code Ansys CFX 18 on selected experiments with the subcooled boiling flow. Ansys CFX code can simulate multiphase flow by solving three balance equations for each phase (Euler-Euler approach). Boiling on the heated wall can be simulated with the model proposed by Kurul and Podowski. A set of mathematical models of physical phenomena in boiling bubbly flow was selected and tested on the following experiments with subcooled boiling: DEBORA experiments, ASU experiments, FRIGG FT-6a experiment, and Bartolomej et al. experiment. It was found out that CFX code can reasonably reproduce measured data in all these experiments. At the end of this paper, we present an application of this modeling approach to the real case with a complicated geometry: simulation of subcooled boiling in the VVER-1000 fuel assembly with bent rods

Communication Pedagogy: The Coronavirus Pandemic
Authors: Arnett Ron
Published: September 2020

In this historical moment defined by the coronavirus, the global community struggles with and against a seemingly invisible foe. Students, faculty, and administrators open the blinds on windows in the morning, witnessing the brightness of the sun and seemingly the clarity of a morning welcome. Yet, there lurks, not in the shadows, but in the brightness of the everyday sunshine, the possibility of sickness and death. This responsive essay weaves together my communicative rejoinders to the coronavirus and its implications for this challenging time in human history. I turn to the autoethnographic insights of Art Bochner and Carolyn Ellis (2016) to frame the theoretical rationale for a conversation that rests within the dialectic of fear and tenacious hope.
Intrusive Teaching: The Strain of Care Labor, Identity and the Emerging Majority in Higher Education
Authors: Goode Jayne , Denker Katherine , Cortese Daniel , Morris Kerri
Published: September 2020

United States publicly-funded higher education systems are experiencing increasing pressures. In response, higher education institutions have broadened their appeal to students less likely to attend college as part of their fiscal strategies. This growing student population consists of first-generation students and individuals from marginalized backgrounds who often enter college underprepared, and higher education must retain these emerging-majority students to ensure fiscal stability. When enrollment and retention are viewed from a business model, faculty duties expand into triage care and student emotional support. This qualitative investigation of faculty in a publicly-funded state university explores intrusive teaching practices marked by monitoring and intervening in their students’ emotional and social issues.

Production of 7-methylxanthine from Theobromine by Metabolically Engineered E. coli
Authors: Algharrawi Khalid Hussein Rheima , Subramanian Mani
Published: September 2020

In this work, a novel biocatalytic process for the production of 7-methylxanthines from theobromine, an economic feedstock has been developed. Bench scale production of 7-methlxanthine has been demonstrated. The biocatalytic process used in this work operates at 30 OC and atmospheric pressure, and is environmentally friendly. The biocatalyst was E. coli BL21(DE3) engineered with ndmB/D genes combinations. These modifications enabled specific N7- demethylation of theobromine to 7-methylxanthine. This production process consists of uniform fermentation conditions with a specific metabolically engineered strain, uniform induction of specific enzymes for 7-methylxanthine production, uniform recovery and preparation of biocatalyst for reaction and uniform recovery of pure 7-methylxanthine.

   Many E. coli BL21(DE3) strains metabolically engineered with single and/or multiple ndmB/D genes were tested for catalytic activity, and the best strains which had the higher activity were chosen to carry out the N-demethylation reaction of theobromine. Strain pBD2dDB had the highest activity for the production of 7-methylxanthine from theobromine. That strain was used to find the optimum amount of cells required to achieve complete conversion of theobromine to 7-methylxanthine within two hours. It was found that the optimum concentration of pBD2dDB strain to achieve 100% conversion of 0.5 mM theobromine to 7-methylxanthine was 5 mg/mL. The cell growth of pBD2dDB strain was studied using two different growth media, (Luria-Bertani Broth and Super Broth). Super broth was found to be the best medium to produce the highest amount of cell paste (1.5 g). Subsequently, the process was scaled up in which 2 L reaction volume was used to produce 7-methylxanthine (100% conversion) from 0.5 mM theobromine catalyzed by pBD2dDB strain. The reactions was carried out at 30 oC and 250 rpm shaker speed, and the reaction medium was 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH=7). 7-methylxanthines was separated by preparative chromatography with high recovery, and the product solution was collected, purified by drying at 120-140 oC for 4 hours and, recovered (127 mg). Purity of the isolated 7-methylxanthine was comparable to authentic standards with no contaminant peaks, as observed by HPLC, LC-MS, and NMR.

Published: September 2020

A rare disease is generally defined as a condition which affects about 1 among 2000 people and currently, there are approximately 5000–8000 rare diseases (RDs) affecting over 400 million people world-wide. Although RDs may arise from different causes such as infections and environmental factors, about 80% are caused by genetic abnormalities. In Tanzania, there are no reports of the types of RDs, their incidence, distribution and numbers of individuals affected. In addition, there have been no strategies to map RDs in the country and develop a definition that fits the local context. Public awareness and understanding of RDs are very limited, and these lead to poor management and stigmatisation of patients. To address the ongoing problems, Tanzania joined other countries world-wide and global partners to commemorate the rare diseases day (RDD) for the first time in 2016 and subsequently every year. Unlike previous years where the RDD was organised by Ali Kimara Rare Diseases Foundation (AKRDF) with few partners, in 2020, a bigger event was co-hosted by Ali AKRDF and Tanzania Human Genetics Organization together with government representatives and other multiple partners. The organisers, government representatives and participants proposed a national “Call for Action” with the overall goal of improving the lives of patients/individuals with RDs. The call focuses and aims to address 17 strategic issues that are broadly categorised into four areas. These include generating demographic data of individuals with RDs; advocating for policies and guidelines for diagnosis, care, treatment and health financing; developing policies supporting public education, awareness and advocacy; and strengthening research, innovation and public–private partnerships. If adopted and implemented, the potential impacts of these recommendations will include improved access to adequate and high-quality health and education services, and policies and guidelines to address the current and future challenges facing individuals with RDs and their families.

Salah satu upaya pemerintah dalam sektor transportasi adalah peningkatan kualitas layanan transportasi di jalan bebas hambatan (jalan tol) dengan memberlakukan pembayaran transaksi nontunai. Kebijakan ini bertujuan untuk kemudahan transaksi dan efisiensi waktu transaksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi kebijakan pembayaran non tunai, persepsi konsumen dan harapan dalam pelayanan di jalan tol. Metode penelitian adalah penelitian jenis survey dengan analisis sevara deskriptif kualitatif. Responden adalah pengguna jalan tol sebanyak 65 orang yang diperoleh dengan menggunakan kuisioner secara online. Hasil penelitian menjelaskan bahwa mayoritas masyarakat telah mengentahui kebijakan pembayaran non tunai ini. Namun dalam operasionalnya belum berjalan sesuai tujuan karena masih ditemukan penguna jalan tol yang gagal transaksi karena tidak membawa kartu atau saldo yang kurang. Persepsi masyarakat terhadap kebijakan sangat mendukung, namun menilai pelayanan pengelola rendah karena tidak menyiapkan fasilitas pengisian ulang, namun hanya penyediaan kartu baru. Masyarakat berharap pengelola jalan tol tetap menyediakan loket pembayaran tunai untuk mengantisipasi gagal transaksi.

PVDF sensor is a sensor that is often used to measure force, strain, vibration and heat. In this study, PVDF sensors with surface polarization are used to detect cutting forces on the machine. The PVDF sensor that has been polarized on the surface is placed in the chuck part of the engine. Measuring instrumen for testing and calibrating PVDF sensors is oscilloscope with increased loading and reduced axial and tangential directions. After the calibration process, the PVDF sensor was used to measure cutting force on drilling machine, and then the results were compared with the PCB piezotronics force sensor. The PVDF sensor output signal is measured and studied for its voltage using an oscilloscope, where the output signal is compared to the weight given to the PVDF sensor. From the results of these tests indicate that the maximum deviation in axial loading is 0.32V while the tangential loading is 0.31VKeywords.
