Manipulation of the arbitrary scattering angle based on all-dielectric transmissive Pancharatnam Berry phase coding metasurfaces in the visible range
Authors: Tian Ying , Jing Xufeng , Yu Hao , Gan Haiyong , Li Chenxia , Hong Zhi
Published: September 2020

In order to improve the transmitted efficiency of the metasurface in the visible range, an all-dielectric Pancharatnam-Berry phase unit structure was proposed. Using these Pancharatnam-Berry phase element particles with different rotation angles, all-dielectric encoding metasurfaces can be constructed. The encoding metasurface connects the physical coding particles with digital coding in digital signal processing. The manipulation of the continuous transmission angle requires the continuous change of the encoding metasurface period. Since the size of encoding particles on the coded metasurfaces cannot be designed to be infinitesimally small, it is impossible to obtain the continuously changing period of the coded metasurfaces. To manipulate effectively and freely the angle of scattering in the visible range, Fourier convolution principle in digital signal processing was introduced on all-dielectric encoding metasurfaces with Pancharatnam-Berry phase meta-atoms. The addition and subtraction operations on two initial encoding sequences can be implemented to obtain a new encoding sequence. The manipulation of the arbitrary scattering pattern after Fourier convolution operations on different encoding sequences can be realized, especially for larger abnormal deflection angles. The checkerboard encoding metasurface was also designed to further prove the applicability of the Fourier convolution principle. Moreover, by using the proposed all-dielectric highly efficient Pancharatnam-Berry phase encoding meta-atoms, these coded particles with different rotation angles can be precisely arranged to build the generators of the orbital angular momentum beam with different topological charges.

Editorial: From Exceptional Cases to Everyday Abuses: Labour exploitation in the global economy
Authors: Quirk Joel , Robinson Caroline , Thibos Cameron
Published: September 2020

This article introduces a special issue on economic systems and everyday abuses of labour rights. In recent decades, neoliberal policies have transformed both the world economy and the world of work. Hard-won rights and protections have been eroded by deregulation, outsourcing, and subcontracting. New forms of unstable, isolated, and insecure work have emerged. This introduction examines the driving forces behind the increasing prominence of precarious work, the accelerating role of migrant labour within global economic systems, and the political relationship between everyday abuses and forms of severe exploitation which have recently come to be defined as human trafficking and modern slavery. We argue that a singular focus upon individual cases of extreme exploitation is unlikely to be effective, and can also draw attention away from the larger systems, interests, and abuses that are associated with the smooth and regular operations of the global economy. We also suggest that at least some of the energies which have recently been expended debating the contentious category of ‘modern slavery’ could be usefully redirected towards lower profile interventions concerned with worker and migrant rights. There are never going to be simple or straightforward solutions to labour abuses, so it is necessary to take many bumpy paths simultaneously, with small steps forward and some steps backward.
Hematology and serum biochemistry of free-range brown-throated sloths in two urban areas in Brazil
Authors: Pereira Kissia Ferreira , Silva Ita de Oliveira e , Silva Fernanda de Fátima Rodrigues , Silva Vinicius Herold Dornelas e , Castro Carla Soraia Soares de , Boere Vanner
Published: September 2020

Background and Aim: The brown-throated sloth (Bradypus variegatus) is widely distributed in three biomes: The Amazon, Atlantic Forest, and Caatinga. Some subpopulations are isolated in urban areas in Brazil, usually in squares and small woods. Due to the scarcity of reference values, an investigation was carried out on the hematology and blood biochemistry of brown-throated sloths from urban areas.

Materials and Methods: Blood was collected by venipuncture in the femoral vein from 19 brown-throated sloths for hematological and biochemical analyses, living in two municipalities; Teófilo Otoni (TO) (Minas Gerais State) and Rio Tinto (RT) (Paraíba state), in the Atlantic Forest biome, Brazil. The samples were analyzed in specialized veterinary laboratories using automatic cell counters and slide fixation staining methods.

Results: The two subpopulations of brown-throated sloths had no significant differences in most hematological values, with the exception of a higher leukocyte concentration (p<0.01) in the RT sub-population. The difference in leukocyte concentration suggests an idiosyncratic effect, as the animals were healthy and the stress of the capture was acute, not chronic. The concentrations of urea, creatinine, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were similar (p<0.05) in brown-throated sloths from TO and RT. Likewise, the liver enzyme concentrations (ALP, alanine transaminase [ALT], and aspartate transaminase [AST]) did not differ between the two subpopulations (p<0.05).

Conclusion: Compared to another study, brown-throated sloths from TO and RT have higher plasma concentrations of ALT and ALP, suggestive of a hepatic overload. Hematological and blood biochemical findings of TO and RT can be used as clinical reference values for brown-throated sloths living in an urban environment.

Published: September 2020

Just like the plough breaking the grounds, many Nigerian cities have been transformed by the use of automobile. Cars have reshaped public realms and remodelled the nation’s landscape, creating a bizarre unpaved erstwhile versions of centuries ago. The rising dominance of automobile is well revealed by their imprints on the urban land use patterns. However, the invention of the mass-produced automobile was a breakthrough in mobility and comfort; the modern consequences of its heavy use has led to a dramatic increase in accident death rates, the use of fossil fuels, social isolation, community disconnection, obesity, environmental pollution, urban sprawl and urban decay. This research, therefore provides an insight into some of the causes of over-dependence on automobile and its impact on the lives of city dwellers using Achara Layout in Enugu as a case study. The target goal is to proffer solution to remedy this obvious lack of foresight on urban transportation system. Using a descriptive research method that utilizes both primary and secondary data, the study through surveys, x-rayed why the increase in automobile dependence. Furthermore, it reveals that although the use of automobile is advantageous, the consequence of over dependency is far more overwhelming. The research results note that four fundamental policies will address successfully and specifically automobile dependency imposed by local conditions. It concludes that the gross accommodation of urban land to automobile be redressed and the expensive sterility of excessive motorized traffic be eliminated and advocates for an eco-friendly alternative means of city transportation.  Keywords: Urban, Automobile Dependency, Planning, City Dwellers, Transportation

A Study on Flexible Cluster Units for Refugees Camps
Authors: Ammoun Maamoun , Uzunoğlu Kozan
Published: September 2020

According to the UNHCR reports in 2017, 65.3 million people are forced to migrate away from their homes. The other dramatic identification is that 22.5 million refugees had to survive in other countries in refugee camps. The shelters that are used in these camps are most of the time temporary shelters which are used during natural disasters (earthquakes, fire, floods, etc.). However, it has been proved that refugees spend minimum 5 years in these camps. Some records mention that 2 generations may spend their lives in these inhumane conditions of camps. All these problems force the review the organization of refugee camps deeply from the architectural point of view. Conceptually, flexibility in architecture basically aims to satisfy physical and psycho-social needs of users. In this study, the design principles of sustainable refugee camps were discussed and flexible design of shelters and clusters considering different family sizes and family needs were developed.

Authors: Vilks Andrejs , Kipāne Aldona
Published: September 2020

The socio-economic processes in the world and in Europe are highly dynamic and are aimed at a sustainable development of society. The sustainable and balanced development of society determines the need for the development of coherent and objectively justified elements of the legal system, including the creation of a new legal framework, the permanent reform of law enforcement authorities, and the use of national and international legal practices in socio-economic activities. At present the sustainable development of society is affected by a new socially unfavourable phenomenon COVID-19  that has a global impact on all regions of the world and almost all spheres of life. International organizations and national institutions must be responsible, courageous and determined in tackling the challenges of the crisis and in building a new generation. The global crisis can be a unique opportunity not only to successfully overcome its consequences, but also to ensure a transition to a fair, climate-neutral and digital sustainable Europe. In this context innovative thinking, successful use of modern technologies, transition to new models of social, economic, political and legal governance are needed. In general, this will contribute to the development of the sustainable society based on a full legal framework. Research aim: to identify the current state of the sustainable development of society, including the impact of COVID-19, by modelling the potential development of it, in accordance with the perspective of transnational socio-economic development. Research methods: study of legal literature and literary sources, the Internet resources, method of modelling, as well as descriptive and analytical methods.

Traces of Social Sustainability in Garden Cities- Karlsruhe as a Case Study
Authors: Bagheri Mahsa
Published: September 2020

Discussions about sustainable communities as a significant measure in social sustainability began in the 2000s. Sustainable communities are defined as places in which existing and future generations would like to work and live. They contribute to the well-being and quality of life and offer equal opportunities to their residents. The definitions are similar to the objectives of one of the most influential movements in the history of urban planning: the Garden City. The principles of the Garden City are applicable to new and existing towns and its concept has been adopted in different contexts until today. Therefore, many lessons can be learnt regarding sustainable urbanism by studying social sustainability in this type of urban settlement. As a first step towards this aim, this paper studies the experience of living in the Garden City of Karlsruhe today. A survey was conducted among the current inhabitants. The study shows a high level of satisfaction and the tendency for a long residency in the Garden City because of the reasons like ample greenery, central location, and quietness of the settlement. The results will be used as the first dataset for developing a framework for urban social sustainability in the Garden Cities.

Influencers - Contemporary Authorities of the Young Generation?
Authors: Garwol Katarzyna
Published: September 2020

Over the past decade computers and smartphones connected to the internet have become widespread, that is why they are now an inseparable element of all ages people's life, especially young people who do not remember the times when such devices were not used. It is commonly used saying that present-day youth "were born with a smartphone in their hands." In the Network young people lead their social life, search for information on various topics and also watch social networking sites, where so-called influencers i.e. network celebrities run their thematic profiles. Content posted by influencers is not always valuable and it happens that they cross the law line and push the boundaries of good taste. An example can be currently popular “patostreams” i.e. live broadcasts, during which behaviors considered as social deviations are presented such as domestic violence, alcohol libations or vulgar discussions. The goal of influencers is to arouse interest in their profile in social media which translates into the number of followers and in turn is supposed to contribute followers’ decisions (e.g. shopping) and opinions on the topics presented. Young people, who have no experience and critical overview and their maturity is just developing, often spend many hours a week in the virtual space watching influencer messages. The article will attempt to answer the questions on how young people approach the content presented by influencers, whether influencers shape followers opinions and decisions in various aspects of life and whether they are authorities to be imitated and trusted.

Water Resources Management in Vulnerable Ecosystems: Quiroz River Basin, Piura
Authors: Tostes Marta , Espejo Mirian , Macedo Enrique , Torres Fidel
Published: September 2020

According to the IPCC (2014), access to water resources is increasingly limited due to the effects of climate change; in consequence, vulnerability of ecosystems and their inhabitants increases. Thus, it is necessary to develop socio-organizational capacities to mitigate and adapt to this scenario, where retribution mechanisms for ecosystem services (MRSE for its Spanish acronym) become more relevant. The research attempts to analyze the coordination among agents involved in sustainable water resources management, to face climate change vulnerability in high biodiversity areas. For this purpose, the implementation of the Quiroz-Chira water fund will be studied as a case that generates institutionalism for sustainability of this mechanism and that represents an important social innovation that can be replicated. The methodology has a descriptive scope and applies qualitative techniques that complement secondary sources systematized with WebQDA software. Results indicate high vulnerability of the analyzed basin districts and a correct governance in this innovation, both with a sustainable development approach oriented to conservation of water potential. This implies good articulation for implementation of the MRSE and promotion of interests’ unification between contributors and water resources retributive entities.

Published: September 2020

The bankruptcy estate of the debtor spouse is all property belonging to him both on the basis ofindividual and joint ownership, including unfulfilled property obligations. The composition of the propertyof spouses is determined by the rules of family law, taking into account the legal regulation of certain typesof property, which requires special attention when forming the bankruptcy estate of the debtor spouse. Thebankruptcy estate may include the property of a citizen, making up his share in the total property, which maybe levied in accordance with civil law, family law. Family relations are built on the principle of community,which affects the implementation of bankruptcy law. To foreclose on the share of the debtor spouse, it isnecessary to separate the share of the debtor spouse from the common property, while the bankruptcy lawallows the sale of common property with the subsequent payment of funds to the debtor’s spouse.

Published: September 2020

Tendo como objeto de reflexões a formação inicial, este artigo propõe-se a discutir sobre manifestações de futuros professores diante de uma situação desencadeadora de aprendizagem relativa a grandezas e medidas, especificamente sobre volume. No espaço do Clube de Matemática da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), acadêmicos participaram de estudos e ações relacionadas ao ensino e aprendizagem de matemática, pautados na Teoria Histórico-Cultural, especialmente na Teoria da Atividade e na Atividade Orientadora de Ensino, originando os dados empíricos deste trabalho. A análise apresentou indicativos de que futuros professores, quando colocados diante de situações desencadeadoras de aprendizagem, nem sempre superam o apelo ao material sensorial como única forma de busca de solução, o que caracteriza o pensamento empírico. Como decorrência dos resultados, aponta-se, na formação inicial, a relevância do acesso a espaços que possibilitem reflexões que permitam ir para além dos conhecimentos considerados como aprofundamentos da futura área de ensino.

Os desafios corporativos impostos pela competitividade econômica global, somados ao enfrentamento das desigualdades sociais e dos problemas ambientais, vêm crescendo e se tornando cada vez mais uma forma silenciosa de seleção no ambiente de negócios. Nesse sentido, uma evolução da consciência da sociedade e dos governos para uma mudança de noção, no que se refere ao comportamento social, principalmente voltado para a forma de consumo, tem levado as empresas a repensar a forma como desenvolvem seus novos produtos. Dessa interação entre a busca das empresas por inovação e a necessidade mundial de adequação ao “triple bottom line” surge a Ecoinovação. O objetivo deste trabalho é avaliar o que tem sido estudado e aplicado em Ecoinovação, analisando alguns trabalhos realizados entre 2011 e 2015. Este trabalho tem um caráter exploratório, por meio de revisão bibliográfica, com foco em um tema específico, com estrutura de pesquisa baseada em palavras-chave. Por meio dos resultados encontrados, o trabalho conclui que as ecoinovações devem ser financeiramente viáveis, ter suas diretrizes voltadas para o desempenho do negócio e ser motivadas pelo conhecimento que os gestores envolvidos no projeto devem ter sobre a empresa, com sua visão pautada e orientada sobre os recursos disponíveis.

Published: September 2020

This retrospective study evaluated the feasibility of surgical endoepicardial linear ablation for ventricular tachycardia in patients with postinfarction left ventricular aneurysm.

Sixty-four patients with multivessel coronary artery disease and left ventricular aneurysm but no mural thrombosis of the aneurysm or valve disease were treated at our institution from March 2012 through July 2015. All underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and left ventricular aneurysm repair by linear plication. Twenty-three patients (35.9%) had ventricular tachycardia and underwent surgical endoepicardial linear ablation on the beating heart guided by epicardial substrate mapping with the Carto 3 system. The remaining 41 patients (64.1%) composed the no-ablation group. The effectiveness of surgical linear ablation in the ablation group was evaluated. Safety and clinical outcomes were evaluated and compared between the groups.

The ventricular tachycardia recurrence rate in the ablation group was 17.4% in the immediate postoperative period and 23.8% at last follow-up (39 ± 21 mo). Early (<30-d) mortality rates were 8.7% in the ablation group and 4.9% in the no-ablation group (P=0.41); the respective late mortality rates were 19.1% and 18% (P=0.70). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that preoperatively poor left ventricular function was an independent risk factor for early and late death in both groups. The groups were similar in terms of the need for postoperative mechanical circulatory support, intensive care unit stay, and cumulative survival rate.

We conclude that, for carefully selected candidates, surgical endoepicardial linear ablation combined with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and left ventricular aneurysm linear plication is a feasible treatment for ventricular tachycardia with postinfarction left ventricular aneurysm.

The tourism sector is one of the national development priority sectors because it contributes to foreign exchange earnings, the development of business areas, and the absorption of investment and labor. In 2018 the tourism sector will become the second largest foreign exchange earner after oil palm. Foreign exchange contributed by the tourism sector in 2018 was US $ 19.29 billion, an increase of 15.4%. The increase in contributions was driven by an increase in the number of foreign tourist arrivals by 12.58%, domestic tourists by 12.37%, and from investment. Therefore it is necessary to study the forecasting of the number of tourists after seeing the great potential generated from the tourism sector. The data forecast is data on the number of tourists in Central Java, both foreign and domestic data. Both data shows the tendency of an upward trend pattern. So that both data can be analyzed using B-DESmethods (Brown's Double Exponential Smoothing) and B-WEMA (Brown's Weighted Exponential Moving Average)that are optimized with LM (Levenberg-Marquardt). Both methods are able to analyze trend patterned data without assumptions making it easier in the analysis process. In addition, the two methods in previous studies were able to produce a small forecasting accuracy. The MAPE (Mean Absolute Percentage Error) value out sample is used to compare the forecasting results of the two methods. The results of the implementation of LM optimization on the data of the number of domestic tourists obtained the optimal parameter value of the B-DES method is 0.21944386 with MAPE out sample 16.26516% and B-WEMA method is 0.219441 with MAPE out sample 16.26515%. While the data on the number of foreign tourists obtained the optimal parameter value of the B-DES method was 0.26213368 with the MAPE out of the sample 23.61278% and the B-WEMA method was 0.26213367 with the MAPE out the sample 23.61278%. This means that both methods have a good level of forecasting accuracy in the data on the number of domestic tourists and an adequate level of accuracy in the data on the number of foreign tourists. Keywords : B-DES, B-WEMA, Levenberg-Marquardt, Tourists in Central Java

Text mining is a variation on a field called data mining that tries to find interesting patterns from large databases. Indonesian President affirmed that the capital would be moved to East Kalimantan on August 26, 2019. That planning would receive pros and cons from public. Sentiment analysis is part of text mining that typically involves taking data from opinion, comment, or response. Sentiment analysis is the choice to do on this topic to get results about the public’s opinion. As the most used social media in Indonesia, Youtube is able to be data source by crawling the comments on a video uploaded by Kompas TV channel. Those comments were crawled on October 15, 2019, and selected 1500 latest comments (August 26 – October 12, 2019). The selected comments get transformed by using data pre-processing technique that involves case folding, removing mention, unescaping HTML, removing numbers, removing punctuation, text normalization, stripping whitespace, stopwords removal, tokenizing, and stemming. Labeling of sentiment class uses the sentiment scoring technique. The number of negative comments is 849, while the number of positive comments is 651. The ratio between training data and testing data is 80%: 20%. The classification method used to do sentiment analysis is the Naive Bayes Classifier for Bernoulli and Multinomial model. Bernoulli model only uses occurrence information, whereas the multinomial model keeps track of multiple occurrences. The results show that Bernoulli Naïve Bayes has a 93,45% level of sensitivity (recall) and Multinomial Naïve Bayes has a 90,19% level of sensitivity (recall). It means that both Bernoulli and Multinomial have a good result for this research. Keywords: Text Mining, Relocation of Indonesia’s Capital, Youtube, Bernoulli Naïve Bayes, Multinomial Naïve Bayes, Sensitivity (Recall).

Time series is a type of data collected according to the sequence of times in a certain time span. Time series data can be used as a predictor of future conditions. Analysis of time series data, one of the ARIMA units, is a parametric method that requires an assumption to get valid results. Data stationarity is one of the factors that must be fulfilled. Wavelet is a non-parametric method that is able to represent time and frequency information simultaneously, so that it can analyze non-stationary data. This research presents forecasting the price of red chili in Central Java using ARIMA and wavelet with the approach of the Multiscale Autoregressive (MAR) model. The best model is the one with the smallest MSE value. The results showed that the ARIMA(0,1,1) model was said to be the best model with MSE = 2252142. However, because the assumption of normality is not fulfilled, an alternative process is done with wavelet. Wavelet approach results show that the MAR model Haar filter level (j) = 4 with MSE = 2175906 is better than Daubechies 4 filter 4 level (j) = 1 with MSE = 3999669. Therefore, the Haar wavelet is considered better in the time series analysis. Keyword : ARIMA, wavelet, MAR, forecasting, MSE

YouTube is one of the most popular online platforms today. The popularity of YouTube has makes it an effective advertising medium. In April 2019, Socialblade released the top 250 YouTube channels in Indonesia based on their gradations with various characteristics. YouTube channel data will be grouped into several clusters to make it easier for advertisers to choose channels with characteristics as needed. The purpose of this study is to determine the best number of clusters and determine their characteristics. The method used is the k-Modes cluster analysis with values k = 3, 4, 5, ..., 8. The k-Modes method can group objects that have categorical type variables into relatively homogeneous groups. The best number of clusters (k) can be checked using the Davies Bouldin Index (DBI). Based on the analysis carried out, obtained the best number of six clusters with a Davies-Bouldin Index value of 1.080509. The most recommended cluster for advertising is cluster 6, which has grade A characteristics, gold title, and has an estimated annual income of 5 million USD < income ≤ 10 million USD.

Control chart is one of the effective statistical tools to overcome the problem of process quality in a production. Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (MEWMA) control chart is an effective quality control tool in processes with more than one variable and correlated (multivariate). The MEWMA control chart has a weight value (λ) which makes this chart more sensitive in detecting small shifts process mean. The weight (λ) has values ranging from 0 to 1 ( ), where this weight will be given to each data. The MEWMA control chart in this study was used to form a control chart by the product defects percentage of grade B and grade B at PT. Pismatex Textile Industry Pekalongan. In this study, GUI Matlab was formed to assist the computational process in forming MEWMA control charts to control the quality of production at  PT. Pismatex Textile Industry Pekalongan. Based on the result, the optimal weight is obtained at the weight value λ = 0.9. Keywords: Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (MEWMA), Weight (λ), GUI Matlab, Percentage of product defects.

Import is one of the efforts of an area to meet the needs of its population in order to stabilize prices and maintain stock availability. The value of imports in Central Java throughout 2016 amounted to 8811.05 Million US Dollars. The value of imports in Central Java is the top 10 in all provinces in Indonesia with a percentage of 6.50%. Import data in Central Java is included in the time series data category. To maintain the stability of imports in Central Java, it is deemed necessary to make a plan based on a statistical model. One of the time series models that can be applied is the fuzzy time series model with the Chen method approach and the S. R. Singh method because the method is suitable for cyclical patterned data with monthly time periods such as Import data in Central Java. Important concepts in the preparation of the model are fuzzy sets, membership functions, set basic operators, fuzzy variables, universe sets and domains. The fuzzy time series modeling procedure is carried out through several stages, namely the determination of universe discourse which is divided into several intervals, then defines the fuzzy set so that it can be performed fuzzification. After that the fuzzy logical relations and fuzzy logical group relations are determined. The accuracy calculation in both methods uses symmetric Mean Absolute Percentage Error (sMAPE). In this study the sMAPE value obtained in the Fuzzy Time Series Chen method of 10.95% means that it shows good forecasting ability. While the sMAPE value on the Fuzzy Time Series method of S. R. Singh method by 5.50% shows very good forecasting ability. It can be concluded that the sMAPE value in the S. R. Singh fuzzy time series method is better than the Chen method.Keywords: Import value, fuzzy time series , Chen, S. R. Singh, sMAPE
