Authors: Abdat Munifah , Jernita Tanti
Published: October 2019

Elderly is a natural process where changes in body tissue function include changes in oral tissues such as dry mouth, pale mucosa, mucosal thinning, attrition, and tooth loss. Maintaining the health of the oral cavity is one way to maintain body condition for the elderly. This study aims to determine the knowledge and behavior of oral health and oral health status in the elderly and its implications for general health. This study is an analytical study with a cross sectional approach, taking research subjects by purposive sampling and obtained 40 elderly people. The results showed that the average oral health status with poor criteria (DMF-T = 11,725; OHIS> 3.1 = 57.5%) and the elderly complained of impaired speech function, chewing and swallowing food. There is a significant relationship between knowledge and oral health behavior with DMFT (p = 0.85) and OHIS (p = 0.828). It was concluded that poor oral health status in the elderly could have implications for health problems both locally in the oral cavity and the body in general.Keywords: oral health status, elderly, health implications

Authors: Bahirrah Siti , Nainggolan Lidya Irani , Pasaribu Philiph
Published: October 2019

Periodontal ligaments are one of the supporting tissues of teeth that undergo remodeling during the tooth movement process. Vitamin C deficiency inhibits the regeneration of collagen fibers, which are important in tissue remodeling that affects the widening of the periodontal ligament space during the process of tooth movement. The widening of periodontal ligament space can be seen by taking radiographic photos. The purpose of this study was to determine the width of the periodontal ligament space of guinea pigs by administering vitamin C, without vitamin C, and the differences between the two groups. Those samples were grouped into four groups with observation times of 1, 4, 7, and 10 days, and each group consisted of the control group and vitamin C group. Those samples were paired with orthodontic separator rubber. After the specified time was completed, periapical radiographs were taken, and the width of the periodontal ligament space was measured by using Image J software. The mean width of the periodontal ligament space in the vitamin C group was smaller than the control group. Based on this study, it can be concluded that vitamin C has an effect on reducing periodontal ligament space in the process of tooth movement.

Authors: Triwahyuni Iin Eliana
Published: October 2019

As current technology cannot cure cancer completely, prevention becomes the main choice. To prevent the development of cell transformation into cancer cells, polyphenols that are widely found in cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao) can be used. IFNγ plays an important role in immunity against cancer. This study aims to see the ability of cocoa beans ethanol extract to increase the number of IFNγ expression in Balb/c mice undergoing cell transformation. This study used three groups Balb/c (n=4), namely K1 (normal control), K2 (negative control: injected with benzopyrene without ethanol extract of cocoa beans), and K3 (treatment: injected with benzopyrene, given 4mg/30gBW/po/day ethanol extract of cocoa beans). The mice were biopsied, and IFNγ expression was examined by immune histochemical method. The results showed that IFNγ expression increased significantly in K3. It can be concluded that ethanol extract of cocoa beans could increase IFNγ expression in Balb/c mice undergoing cell transformation.

Authors: Surya Indra , Hayeemasae Nabil
Published: October 2019

The reinforcement of natural rubber (NR) and epoxidized natural rubbers (ENRs) with silica or carbon black (CB) by using a semi-efficient sulfur accelerated vulcanization system has been carried out. It was found that silica caused a longer in cure time compared to CB and due to the dissimilarity of their surface chemistry, it was also found that silica and CB caused the difference in reinforcement effect to those rubbers. Silica caused in filled-vulcanizates of those rubbers with a higher modulus and lower tensile strength compared to their unfilled ones. On the other hand, CB caused enhancements in both modulus and tensile to those rubbers. The investigation on reinforcing efficiencies of those fillers on the rubbers found that the higher reinforcing efficiency of CB was attributed to its better degree of filler dispersion when compared to silica.

Pushover Experiment of Portal Structure with Brick Wall without and with Anchor for Non-Engineered Building
Authors: Hutajulu Marsaulina , Ansary Isa , Tarigan Johannes
Published: October 2019

Based on the findings in almost all earthquakes that hit Indonesia, the damaged and collapsed buildings were simple houses built spontaneously (non engineered building), where buildings are built based on practical experience without structural calculations. One form of damage to non-structural components and structures is the relationship between columns and brick walls, where cracks and separation between columns and walls occur due to no anchor. So the design of buildings in the future is safe from the dangers of earthquakes. For earthquakes that are not too large, the building is likely to remain standing with little damage. However, to anticipate a strong earthquake and reduce the adverse effects, the building of a walled wall must be built according to the provisions of earthquake-resistant building construction by providing reinforcement in certain parts such as mounting anchors from column to wall. To find out how much influence from the installation of the anchor from the column to the brick wall, an experimental study was carried out on the walls completed with a foundation, sloof, column and beam. There were 2 specimens, namely specimen that uses the anchor and do not use anchor, so it is expected to know the behavior of mounting anchors. From the test results obtained that a pushover load of 7540 kg and a displacement of 56.5 mm for specimens using anchor while for specimens that did not use anchor had pushover 5666 kg and a displacement of 48 mm. The conclusion is the installation of anchors between column and brick wall can increase

Authors: Putra Zulfazly , Tarigan Johannes
Published: October 2019

Abstract. The earthquake resistant steel frame structure is designed to be able to withstand large inelastic deformations in the case of an earthquake. The applicable regulations still allow the use of elastic design methods in the form of pushover analysis and time history analysis evaluation as the basis for the design. The building under consideration consists of six floors with the function as an office building. The location of the building is in Banda Aceh with soft soil conditions. The structural analysis used the help of the Extended Three Dimensional Analysis of Building System Program (ETABS). The method of analysis of steel portal structures used was pushover analysis. Analysis of the given load was static loading based on 1987 PPPURG, and earthquake dynamic loading used a variety of response spectrum procedure analysis based on SNI 03-1726-2012. Structural analysis was assumed to be the strong column weak beam concept. From the results of calculations, it is found that the steel portal structures (with and without braces) designed based on allowable interstory drift limits have met the requirements. The performance level of the steel portal structure without bracing was LS, while the performance level of the steel portal structure using bracing was IO. The largest amount of steel used in terms of weight was found in the case of a portal without braces.

Multiple faults detection and isolation approach applied to a kraft recovery boiler
Authors: THARRAULT YVON , AMAZOUZ MOULOUD
Published: October 2019

Recovery boilers play a key role in chemical pulp mills. Early detection of defects, such as water leaks, in a recovery boiler is critical to the prevention of explosions, which can occur when water reaches the molten smelt bed of the boiler. Early detection is difficult to achieve because of the complexity and the multitude of recovery boiler operating parameters. Multiple faults can occur in multiple components of the boiler simultaneously, and an efficient and robust fault isolation method is needed. In this paper, we present a new fault detection and isolation scheme for multiple faults. The proposed approach is based on principal component analysis (PCA), a popular fault detection technique. For fault detection, the Mahalanobis distance with an exponentially weighted moving average filter to reduce the false alarm rate is used. This filter is used to adapt the sensitivity of the fault detection scheme versus false alarm rate. For fault isolation, the reconstruction-based contribution is used. To avoid a combinatorial excess of faulty scenarios related to multiple faults, an iterative approach is used. This new method was validated using real data from a pulp and paper mill in Canada. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively detect sensor faults and water leakage.
The influence of paper surface energy on multicolor offset print mottling
Authors: GIGAC JURAJ , KASAJOVÁ MIROSLAVA , STANKOVSKÁ MONIKA
Published: October 2019

An evaluation of a series of commercial uncoated, semimatte, and glossy coated woodfree papers for the multicolor sheet-fed offset press is presented. This study is aimed at better understanding of mutual influences of surface free energy, paper surface roughness, and fountain solution on print mottling occurring in full-scale printing conditions. Each paper has unique structure in terms of surface roughness, porosity, and surface energy that are the result of manufacturing technology. At the point of contact of liquid with paper, the surface dynamic process of liquid absorption by paper occurs, involving phenomena such as wetting, penetration, diffusion, and swelling. Mottling of colored surface printed by cyan, magenta, yellow, and black inks copied the surface roughness of coated paper. Mottling in the second, third, and fourth printing units showed deviation from mottling in the first printing unit, depending on surface free energy of paper and on the frequency of paper-surface wetting by fountain solution before and after printing.
Trends in pulp and paper mill emissions of SO2 and NOx, 1980-2010
Authors: E. PINKERTON JOHN
Published: October 2019

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions from U.S. pulp and paper mills have been estimated from industry-wide surveys conducted every five years, beginning in 1980 and continuing through 2010. Between 1980 and 2010, total SO2 emissions declined by over 70%, while paper and paperboard production rose 35%. NOx emissions peaked in 1995, but fell by almost 40% over the next 15 years. Paper and paperboard
production only declined 7% over the same period. These downward emission trends resulted from several factors, including reductions in oil and coal use, declining oil and coal sulfur content, increased use of add-on SO2 and NOx control systems on boilers, growing use of combustion modification techniques to minimize emissions, improvements in energy efficiency, and declining pulp, paper, and paperboard production over the past 15 years.

Authors: S. BOLTON TODD , A. LOBO LLOYD , NICHOLSON DANIEL , W. MCCLARY ANDREW
Published: October 2019

The drainage of filtrates during mat formation in a brownstock washer directly impacts the washer’s productivity and indirectly affects its efficiency. In this paper, the role of entrained air on filtration through a formed mat during displacement as it occurs in brownstock washing was investigated. It was shown how chemical treatments, such as wash aids and fiber surface chemistry, influence air entrainment and, thereby, washer productivity and efficiency. By minimizing air entrained within a formed mat, displacement filtration rates and wash ratios were shown to improve. With this knowledge, washer operations can be improved through the design and selection of better treatments.

Authors: Mılovanovıc Gradimir
Published: October 2019

A summation/integration method for fast summing trigonometric series is presented. The basic idea in this method is to transform the series to an integral with respect to some weight function on $\RR_+$ and then to approximate such an integral by the appropriate quadrature formulas of Gaussian type. The construction of these quadrature rules, as well as  the corresponding orthogonal polynomials on $\RR_+$, are also considered. Finally, in order to illustrate the efficiency of the presented  summation/integration method two numerical examples are included.

Published: October 2019

The formation of a healthy lifestyle through education, the creation of health saving educational environment
is one of the priorities of the state policy in the field of education. Higher education institutions are the most effective institutions for the formation of a healthy lifestyle and health culture of student youth. As they are trying to
use their opportunities in the direction of harmonious development of psychophysical abilities of young people.
The directions concerning health saving and formation of student youth healthy lifestyle are described. These
include conducting and publishing annual monitoring studies on the health status of student youth and the spread
of negative phenomena in the youth environment; improvement of the regulatory framework; development of
scientific and methodological activities; intensifying the participation of student youth, communities and volunteers in the formation of a healthy lifestyle; a large-scale information campaign on promoting healthy lifestyles.
The structural components of the model of student youth healthy lifestyle formation are revealed, including
the following ones content, motivational and activity.
The structural components of the model of formation of a healthy lifestyle of student youth in the conditions
of a higher education institution, namely: content, motivational and activity, are revealed. Implementation of
structural components is carried out through research work, educational activities, orientation of student youth
to lead a healthy lifestyle and prevent harmful habits.
The article investigates the ways of model implementation of student youth healthy lifestyle formation by
means of physical culture in higher education institutions on the example of the faculty of physical culture and
sports of the Mykolaiv V.O. Sukhomlynskyi National University
The analysis of scientific and pedagogical, psychological, medical literature and literature on the theory of
physical education gives grounds to assert that a healthy lifestyle of student youth is not only a social problem,
but is an indicator of the general culture of man. Implementation of healthcare-saving pedagogical technologies
begins with students, especially in institutions of higher education in pedagogical direction. It is from educators
that the conscious attitude of the younger generation towards their own health, the formation of a culture of
health and healthcare preserves.
The prospects for further research will be to determine the effectiveness of the proposed model for the formation of the values of a healthy lifestyle in the process of physical education of student youth.
Verb-Framed Motion Events in Uralic (with special attention to Mari)
Authors: Bradley Jeremy
Published: October 2019

Uralic languages have been described as “satellite-framed” in general linguistic publications, meaning that the path of a motion event is typically not expressed by the verb of motion, but by an independent element – a particle, an affix, etc. – that accompanies the verb or verbal stem. While this assertion holds true for the critical mass of Uralic languages, it seems to be too broad – especially with respect to languages influenced by “verb-framed” Turkic languages, in which the verb of motion typically denotes the path. This paper aims to give a comprehensive overview of the expression of motion events in Mari, the presumably most heavily verb-framed extant Uralic language, and a brief overview of verb-framed motion events in other Uralic languages.

The Nation State of the Jewish People's Basic Law: A Threshhold of Elimination?
Authors: Sa'di Ahmad H.
Published: October 2019

The Nation State of the Jewish People's basic law, passed in July 2018, constitutes a landmark in the evolution of Israel's settler-colonial nationalism and self-presentation. The law underscores the shift Israel has made from aligning itself with the Western liberal order to embracing, even spearheading, a radical right-wing populist worldview. The Jewish exclusivity and racism that the law embodies, I argue, did not result from changes in Israel's political and demographic landscape in the last two decades. Rather their genesis could be traced back to the debates which took place soon after Israel's establishment. Since then the desire for Jewish exclusivity has not dwindled but had been masqueraded through ideas of Israel's inimitability. The article discusses the mutations of these debates and their legal and policy effects.
Orientalist Speech-acts and Israeli Middle East Studies: Cautions and Criticisms of Edward Said Beyond the Battle of Ideas
Authors: Clyne Eyal
Published: October 2019

Drawing on speech acts theory, this article discusses the illocutionary and perlocutionary forces of discursive practices with which certain academic circles seek to discredit the Saidian ‘Orientalism’ framework. Identifying the unusual value attached to Said as object of attachment or detachment, desirability and exceptionality, this analysis turns away from deliberations about ‘orientalism’ as a party in a battle of ideas, and studies common cautionary statements and other responses by peers as actions in the social (academic) world, that enculture and police expectations. Cautioning subjects about this framework, or conditioning its employment to preceding extensive pre-emptive complicating mitigations, in effect constructs this framework as undesirable and ‘risky’. While strong discursive reactions are not uncommon in academia, comparing them to treatments of less-controversial social theories reveals formulations, meanings and attentions which are arguably reserved for this ‘theory’. Conclusively, common dismissals, warnings and criticisms of Said and ‘Orientalism’ often exemplify Saidian claims, as they deploy the powerful advantage of enforcing hegemonic, and indeed Orientalist, views.
Person Perception, Attractiveness, and Assessment of Men with Tendency to Take Risks: Evolutionary Aspects
Authors: Apalkova Julia I.
Published: October 2019

The male behavioural strategy associated with physical risk is one of the universal foundations on which the ideas of masculinity established in society are based. Risk-taking propensity in general can signal a man's greater competitiveness, and physically risky actions can be perceived as "courageous" behavior and evidence of strength and athleticism. The results of a number of experimental studies and observations recorded sexual differences in risky behavior. In particular, young men are more likely to take physical risks than women. Evolutionary scientists have suggested that these differences may be a result of male competition for access to sexual partners. In this study we present an analysis of male and female physical risk assessments of men in the Russian sample (n = 701). Men and women were offered vignettes describing men who differed in risk-taking propensity. Respondents needed to assess the attractiveness of men in the context of long-term romantic and short-term (so-called "one night stand") relationships, as well as to assess their competitiveness, tendency to aggression, provisioning quality and a tendency to dangerous health behavior (alcohol abuse, unprotected sex, etc.). The degree of risk tolerance was significant in the evaluation of all the proposed parameters. Men who demonstrate an average degree of risk-taking propensity received the highest ratings for attractiveness for short-term relationships. Low-risk men were found to be more attractive in long-term relationships and able to provide the best quality of life. Men who choose a type of activity associated with constant physical risk and danger were assessed as the most aggressive and competitive. In addition, high risk propensity was associated with a higher propensity for unhealthy lifestyles and bad habits. Thus, male risk-taking behaviour affects men's social perception, attractiveness and quality assessment, and a high degree of risk-taking is not always perceived as a positive quality.
Current Situation and Prospects of Evidence-Based Medicine in Russia Assessed by Physicians and Patients
Authors: Vyatkina Natalia A.
Published: October 2019

The term "evidence-based medicine" is being increasingly used by various sources of information today, and becomes a discussion subject of professional communities and ordinary citizens. Apart from a brief insight into the origin and development of evidence-based medicine in the world and in Russia, the article deals with the anthropological analysis of the attitudes of the modern Russian physicians and patients towards both the understanding of the term and the current status, prospects and possible risks of the development of this discipline in our country. The views of respondents about the role of pharmaceutical companies, the state and the balance between the development and implementation of clinical guidelines and individual cases are considered. The article presents the arguments of patients about whether there is still a "physician blessed by God" and whether it is important for them that the person who they address for help works in the paradigm of evidence-based medicine. Physicians question whether healing itself is still an art, or evidence-based medicine has finally turned it into a business and well-organized mechanism, which could protect them from criminal prosecution in a critical situation.
Whose dance is the Lezginka? The etymology of the name, the origin of the dance and the nature of its choreography
Authors: Gadjimuradov Ilham
Published: October 2019

The article attempts to explain the special dance tradition of the mountaineers of the North Caucasus – a pair dance called “Lezginka” performed during weddings and other festive events. The etymology of the dance's name, its characteristic choreography as well as the origin of pair dance, which is partly an echo of the ancient pagan totemic imaginations, are investigated. A possible relationship between the characteristic choreography of the dance and the local eagle totem is shown.
Underground space and contemporary museum

Published: October 2019

Recently, museum designers engaged in exploring dungeons, following archaeologists and diggers. Such interest in transformation of the underground space into a museum space has not yet been sufficiently analyzed, so the article considers a variety of examples from the modern practice of turning underground spaces into museums. In addition to sociocultural examples related to the special features of the urban space or the preservation of a unique landscape, I would like to draw special attention to the importance of archetypes associated with underground spaces when designing a modern museum exposition.

The Migration Flows from the Italian Peninsula to Crimea (end of XVIII – beginning of XX centuries).
Authors: Zini Stefania , Khokhlov Nikita V.
Published: October 2019

The article is dedicated to the history of the Italians of Crimea. The history of the group is still little studied and rich in myths and legends. Our complex historical-anthropological and genetic study of the community allowed us to dispel some myths, which are widespread among the members of the community and far beyond it, and to recreate the history, geography and causes of migrations that took place in the XIX century. The historical part of the research was mainly based on sources and documents found in the Russian and Italian archives. We used documents from the State Archive of the Saratov Region, the State Archive of the Republic of Crimea, the Russian State Military Archive of Moscow, the state archives of Genova, Napoli, Bari, Turin, and the Vatican Secret Archive. Extensive and equally useful information was found in newspapers and other periodicals of the XIX–XX centuries from Russian and Italian library collections. Family archives of descendants of Italian migrants also provided valuable information. The article presents some of the materials found in the course of the study.
The article also deals with the problem of the size of the community, which is difficult to define both today and in the past.
The real costs of teaching medical students in general practice: a cost-collection survey of teaching practices across England
Authors: Rosenthal Joe , McKinley Robert K , Smyth Chris , Campbell John L
Published: October 2019

Background

Current funding arrangements for undergraduate medical student placements in general practice are widely regarded as outdated, inequitable, and in need of urgent review.

Aim

To undertake a detailed costing exercise to inform the setting of a national English tariff for undergraduate medical student placements in general practice.

Design and setting

A cost-collection survey in teaching practices across all regions of England between January 2017 and February 2017.

Method

A cost-collection template was sent to 50 selected teaching practices across all 25 medical schools in England following the development of a cost-collection tool and an initial pilot study. Detailed guidance on completion was provided for practices. Data were analysed by the Department of Health and Social Care.

Results

A total of 49 practices submitted data. The mean cost per half-day student placement in general practice was 111 GBP, 95% confidence interval = 100 to 121 (146 USD), with small differences between students in different years of study. Based on 10 sessions per student per week this equated to around 1100 GBP (1460 USD) per student placement week.

Conclusion

The costs of undergraduate placements in general practice are considerably greater than funding available at time of writing, and broadly comparable with secondary care funding in the same period. The actual cost of placing a medical student full time in general practice for a 37-week academic year is 40 700 GBP (53 640 USD) compared with the average payment rate of only 22 000 GBP (28 990 USD) per year at the time this study was undertaken.

Authors: Malik Ermansyah
Published: October 2019

The aim of the research were (1) to examine participants’ pragmatics competence toward English formal, neutral and formal request, (2) to find evidence of the participants’ lack of pragmatics competence toward various setting of English pragmatics situations.qualitative and quantitative methods were applied to analyze the result of the findings. English grammar competence test was given to determine the subjects’ grammar competence. The English pragmatic test was given to determine the subject’ competence on English pragmatic.the subjects of the research were grouped into 3 categories; group a, subjects whose English grammar competence are at basic level, group b, subjects whose English grammar competence are at intermediate level and group c, subjects whose English grammar competence are at advance level. Each group consists of 5 individuals, who have no prior information of the test model and the aims of the research. Ielts model test is administered before the pragmatic competence test, to groups the subjects of the research. There are 3 parts of the English pragmatic competence which researcher applied to determine the result of the research, (1) identifying formal, informal and neutral request utterances, (2) expressing willingness and unwillingness with reasons in using the utterances (3) answering appropriately to multiple questions.the result of the research shows different finding from each of the English grammar competence level. The research result unsurprisingly shows low level of pragmatics competence at intermediate and basic level of grammar competence. Different result showed at higher level whereas the relationship between grammar and pragmatic competence is strong.

Motivation, undoubtedly, plays a very crucial role in any learning process including second and foreign language learning. Such cruciality positions the maintaining and motivation raising in the integral part of learning and more so in the currently growing and more technologically advanced learning environments. This paper conceptually discussed the motivation raising strategies which have been employed toward English as second language (ESL) learners in two different dimensions, which are those strategies which depend on the role of an ESL teacher (i.e. pedagogical and material selection) and those which do not (i.e. parents, school institutions, media, and gender difference). Despite the existence of other external factors, we argue that teacher plays the decisive role on ESL learners’ motivation. From the critical review and more extended discussion, it is found that teacher’s awareness toward the cruciality of students’ motivation influences the strategies used by the teachers in order to raise motivation. The paper also re-emphasises the urgent needs for a more learner-centred learning as it is believed to have positive impact for learners’ motivation. This paper concludes by highlighting the significant contributions of the insights discussed within this study, especially for ESL teaching practitioners.

Promoción de la inversión privada y asociaciones publico privadas en la región Arequipa, como medios para la reducción de brechas de infraestructura y crecimiento económico.
Authors: Gambetta Paredes Brunno Alonso
Published: October 2019

Este articulo tiene por objetivo dar a conocer las implicancias referidas a la brecha de infraestructura por la que viene atravesando nuestra economía, la misma que viene afectando a diversos sectores productivos y al crecimiento económico de la región Arequipa y del país en su conjunto. Así mismo, se busca demostrar cómo ello puede ser paliado a través de la promoción de inversión privada y el desarrollo de Asociaciones Publico Privadas (APPs), las cuales deben ser llevadas a cabo tanto a nivel del gobierno nacional, a través de Proinversión y el Ministerio de Economia y Finanzas; y lo propio, a través de los gobiernos regionales y locales, mediante sus oficinas de promoción de la inversión privada (OPIP ́s). Todo lo anterior se encuentra enmarcado en la “Ley de Promoción de la Inversión Privada”, la cual entró en vigencia en el año 2008, mediante el Decreto Legislativo N°1012, el mismo que ha venido adquiriendo especialimportancia, debido a la coyuntura actual que experimenta nuestra economía, caracterizada por gobiernos subnacionales que en los últimos años, han venido percibiendo menores recursos públicos para la inversión en proyectos de infraestructura pública, limitando su capacidad de atender la problemática antes descrita. Finalmente, se detallan algunas acciones específicas que ha venido llevando a cabo la Gerencia Regional de Promoción de la Inversión Privada delGobierno Regional de Arequipa en esta materia, desde su creación hasta la actualidad, con el objetivo de contribuir a la reducción de las brechas en infraestructura y sobre todo al crecimiento económico nacional.

The Geostatistics provides effective tools for the solution of many problems of engineering in which the location in the space of the variable under study is considered, based on definitions of mathematics that provide the necessary foundation for its application. In particular, the Geostatistics are applied in the spatial estimation of the recoverable reserves of mineral deposits. The geostatistical methods that are used in the estimation of mineral deposits are implemented in industrial software and consider the evaluation of the complex geological structure, but these softwares only display the obtained results with an input data and do not exhibit the concepts thatthey use during the process or the methodology of its application. This happens particularly with the Kriging method, which is based on the assumption of strict stationarity, taking into account changes in the mean and local variations, therefore unreliable. In this study is established to review the Kriging method, its application in the estimation of the recoverable reserves of mining deposits and the relevance of the developed model established particularly in mines ofPeru, which use this method as part of the mining exploration for the evaluation of the feasibility of exploitation.
