Authors: Rezouki Sedqi Esmaeel , Hassan Jinan Kata'a 
Published: December 2019

Shortage in funds after the declining in oil prices since 2014, made Iraq government encourage private sector engagement in financing infrastructure projects through PPP. However, private sector reluctance was notable. Therefore, this research is conducted to assess if Iraq is a supportive environment for PPP projects development. 25 risk factors of PPP projects have been listed and organized within a questionnaire that was conducted with a participation of 98 respondents from public, private institutions and academics. Means comparison was used to rank and identify respondent agreement on assessing the level of importance of these risk factors, also nonparametric tests were used. Findings indicated that all respondents groups have agreed on ranking corruption on the top of barriers that government should deal with to ensure the success of PPP projects. Afterward scarcity of private funds came in the first place followed by insufficient public administration processes and then by the lack of legal framework followed by the delays in acquisition of land and while the lack of sovereign guarantee came at the fifth place. The perceptions of survey groups’ respondents concerning the importance of risk factors differ , where both public and academics respondents have serious concerns regarding the private sector capacity to carry out the task and the availability of private funds. On the other hand the private sector concerns the availability of government incentives to support for infrastructure PPP projects. Overall findings indicated that government must work on building a solid enabling environment before the initiation of PPP approach in Iraq.
Finite Element Analysis of Beam – Column Joints Reinforced with GFRP Reinforcements
Authors: R. Balamuralikrishnan , J. Saravanan 
Published: December 2019

Glass Fibre Reinforcement Polymer (GFRP) reinforcements are currently used as internal reinforcements for all flexural members due to their resistance to corrosion, high strength to weight ratios, the ability to handle easily and better fatigue performance under repeated loading conditions. Further, these GFRP reinforcements prove to be the better alternative to conventional reinforcements. The design methodology for flexural components has already come in the form of codal specifications. But the design code has not been specified for beam-column joints reinforced internally with GFRP reinforcements. The present study is aimed to assess the behaviour of exterior beam-column joint reinforced internally with GFRP reinforcements numerically using the ABAQUS software for different properties of materials, loading and support conditions. The mechanical properties of these reinforcements are well documented and are utilized for modelling analysis. Although plenty of literature is available for predicting the joint shear strength of beam-column joints reinforced with conventional reinforcements numerically, but no such study is carried for GFRP reinforced beam-columns joints. As an attempt, modelling of beam-column joint with steel and with GFRP rebars is carried out using ABAQUS software. The behaviour of joints under monotonically increasing static and cyclic load conditions. Interpretation of all analytical findings with results obtained from experiments. The analysis and design of beam-column joints reinforced with GFRP reinforcements are carried out by strut and tie model. Strut and Tie models are based on the models for the steel reinforced beam-column joints. The resulting strut and tie model developed for the GFRP reinforced beam-column joints predicts joint shear strength. Joint shear strength values obtained from the experiments are compared with the analytical results for both the beam-column joints reinforced with steel and GFRP reinforcements. The joint shear strength predicted by the analytical tool ABAQUS is also validated with experimental results.

Published: December 2019

In this study, an experimental investigation had conducted for six high strength laced reinforced concrete one-way slabs to discover the behavior of laced structural members after being exposed to fire flame (high temperature). Self-compacted concrete (SCC) had used to achieve easy casting and high strength concrete. All the adopted specimens were identical in their compressive strength of ( , geometric layout 2000 750 150 mm and reinforcement specifics except those of lacing steel content, three ratios of laced steel reinforcement of (0.0021, 0.0040 and 0.0060) were adopted. Three specimens were fired with a steady state temperature of for two hours duration and then after the specimens were cooled suddenly by spraying water. The simply supported slabs were tested for flexure behavior with two line loads applied in the middle third of the slab (four-point bending test). The average residual percentage of cubic compression strength and splitting tensile strength were 57.5% and 50% respectively. The outcomes indicated that the residual bending strength of the burned slabs with laced ratios (0.0021, 0.004, 0.006) were (72.56, 70.54 and 70.82%) respectively. However; an increase in the deflection was gained to be (11.34, 14.67 and 17.22%) respectively with respect to non-burned specimens.

Published: December 2019

En respuesta a la necesidad de una gestión para los residuos sólidos orgánicos generados en la ciudad de Quito, el siguiente trabajo propone un proceso para convertir las cáscaras de naranjas que son generadas por los vendedores de jugo en la ciudad de Quito, en materia prima para la obtención de pectina cítrica y de esta forma, darle valor agregado. En Ecuador no existe una planta productora de pectina, lo que obliga a las industrias que utilizan este producto, a importarlo a un costo desde 17 dólares el medio kilo. En la ciudad de Quito, según el censo realizado por la Policía Nacional en el 2016, existen aproximadamente 600 vendedores ambulantes de jugo de naranja, quienes generan aproximadamente 16200 kg diarios de residuos lo que es igual a 5913 toneladas al año. Se propone el diseño de una planta piloto para la obtención de pectina por hidrólisis ácida a partir de los residuos de la naranja; para esto, como primer paso, se realiza en el laboratorio la optimización del proceso, con el fin de determinar el ciclo de producción, esto servirá como base para la realización del diseño a escala piloto, basándose principalmente en la termodinámica y la cinética de las reacciones. Finalmente, se presenta un estudio económico para determinar su viabilidad en el Distrito Metropolitano de Quito.

Published: December 2019

En el presente artículo se demuestra la eficacia en la aplicación de nueva tecnología acida no corrosiva biodegradable para la limpieza de pozos petroleros. Para ello se ha realizado ensayos de laboratorio sobre cupones metálicos con incrustaciones de carbonatos comparando frente a un ácido convencional. De los resultados obtenidos se evidencio que el ácido no corrosivo biodegradable obtuvo mayor eliminación de carbonatos y menor corrosión al metal. Posterior se muestra una prueba de campo sobre un equipo con corrosión y carbonatos, dejando en remojo por un lapso de 24 horas se observó una limpieza integra del equipo.
Adicional, se realizó un ensayo de compatibilidades con crudo de la cuenca oriente del ecuador observando excelente separación de fases, buena tensión interfacial y poca o nula adsorción en las paredes de la botella de prueba. Por último, se evidencia los resultados de un histórico de producción de un pozo al cual se realizó el cambio de limpiezas acidas convencionales a limpiezas acidas con producto biodegradable no corrosivo.
El histórico de producción muestra que con ácido convencional se obtuvo una caída de producción de 150 bbpd mientras que con el producto no corrosivo biodegradable la caída de producción fue de 80 bppd. Dentro de las conclusiones se pone de manifiesto que el uso de ácido no corrosivo biodegradable elimina las incrustaciones presentes en los pozos petroleros sin causar corrosión en los equipos mecánicos y con su propiedad biodegradable facilita la operación en campo.

Introducción: Los tumores pediátricos primarios del sistema nervioso central (SNC), ocupan el segundo lugar en frecuencia, superados solamente por las neoplasias hematológicas. Objetivo: Realizar una revisión y análisis de la literatura médica existente sobre tumores del SNC en población entre los 0 y 14 años centrado en la epidemiologia, factores etiológicos, manifestaciones clínicas y diagnóstico. Metodología: Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, MedlinePlus, BIREME y red interna de trabajos de grados y tesis de la Universidad Industrial de Santander. Además, se realizó revisión de las páginas de los entes gubernamentales encargados del registro epidemiológico sobre cáncer nacional e internacional. Resultados: Los tumores de SNC en la población pediátrica son la segunda causa de muerte infantil solo superado por la leucemia; tienen una clínica y factores etiológicos bien establecidos. La epidemiología no difiere en el mundo. Los síntomas más frecuentes son vómito, cefalea, ataxia, síntomas visuales y alteraciones motoras. Los factores etiológicos más representativos son virus, síndromes genéticos, infecciones maternas y perinatales, exposición a radiación electromagnética e ionizante; algunos son muy discutidos como la presencia de trauma al momento del nacimiento. Además, existen documentados factores protectores tales como consumo de antioxidantes, frutas y verduras, e historia reportada de alergias. Conclusiones: El adecuado entrenamiento a los médicos de atención primaria en la identificación de los signos y síntomas para la sospecha y diagnóstico de los estadios iniciales de estos tumores pueden disminuir los índices de mortalidad.

Published: December 2019

This paper analysesthe use of the Russian functional marker ved’based on the Russian-Italian parallel corpus within the Russian National Corpus. Data show that in over 50% of examplesved’is used to enhance the illocutionary strength of a sentence, helping the inferential processof a relation of motive with the preceding phrase. Ved’ also occurs in bothinterrogative sentences in order to verify knowledge, with different pragmatic effects depending on the context, and complexsentences, where itacquires a factual meaning and functions as a text cohesion device. Theextensiverange of possibleItalian translations ofved' is a sign of its languagespecificity.
Deictic and Epistemic Distance in Polish
Authors: Bocale Paola 
Published: December 2019

This work investigates the range of pragmatic contexts in which the Polish distal deicticTAM‘there’ appears and argues that these environments share the feature of epistemic uncertainty, which is the semantic common denominator to all sub-modes of irrealis. The use of TAM in contexts of epistemic uncertainty is motivated by its central meaning.TAM can not only convey semantic distance (spatial) with respect to a proposition, but also epistemic distance, i.e. it can absolve the speakers from the responsibility for the truth of the utterance. Epistemic distance is the feature triggering the expansion of uses from one conceptual domain to another.

Authors: Sacchini Mirko 
Published: December 2019

In this work the derived Old-Russian verbs with the prefixes iz- and iz- of Slovo o Polku Igoreve are determined in their semantic and aspectual meaning. It will be shown that as a matter of fact the prefixes iz- and vy- are to be understood as two stilistic forms of a unique prefix iz-/vy-, whose four types of semantic value (only-spatial, spatial-resultative, temporal-resultative, only-resultative) conditionate not only the lexical meaning of its derived verbs but also the morphofunctional derivation of their aspectual pairs. The semantic and morphofunctional description of the verbs with iz-/vy- of Slovo will be shown in vocabulary articles.

Published: December 2019

The problem of studying the development of stroke in men of working age working in conditions of high occupational risk is relevant.The aim of the study was to develop a method for predicting the development of stroke in men working under the influence of electromagnetic fields of industrial frequency.We examined 98 men who had professional contact with the factor of electromagnetic radiation (EMI) of industrial frequency, aged 30 to 65 years, with work experience of 5 years or more. Two groups were identified: the first group — 56 stroke patients, the second group — 42 men diagnosed with chronic cerebral ischemia. Using the method of sequential inclusion of the studied risk factors (ForwardStepwise), those that made an independent significant contribution to the development of stroke were selected. Based on the results obtained, a logistic regression formula was created that determines the probability of stroke in patients working on installation, repair, maintenance of electrical networks and electrical equipment.The presence of influence on stroke development of the following factors was established: patient’s age (β-coefficient=–0,112, p=0,013), total cholesterol level (β-coefficient=0,782, p=0,009), smoking factor (β-coefficient=–2,8, p=0,001), alcohol abuse factor (β-coefficient=3,84, p=0,0001), presence of arterial hypertension of 2–3 degrees (β-coefficient=2,63, p=0,002). In the patient, the values of these 5 parameters are determined, then these values are substituted into the appropriate formula to calculate the value of p (X). A p (X) value greater than 0.32 indicates a high risk of stroke. The sensitivity of the proposed method was 71.4%, specificity–73.8%.The proposed method for predicting the development of stroke in men whose professional activity is associated with the installation, repair, maintenance of electrical networks and electrical equipment, can be used in medical practice: the patient is determined by the value of 5 parameters (patient’s age, total cholesterol, a history of exposure to smoke, factors alcohol abuse, arterial hypertension of 2–3 degrees), then these values are substituted into the appropriate formula. The calculation of the p (X) value can be implemented in the Excel table processor

Published: December 2019

Unlike the previous study in determinant of labor absorption, which focused on economic sector and took up regional scope, this paper examines the impact of Gross Domestic Product, Foreign Direct Investment and Minimum Wages on labor absorption in Indonesia which take the national scope and aggregate labor by using secondary series of time series data (1990-2015). This study contributes to the limited literature on aggregate employment and national scope as the impact of the minimum wage, GDP, FDI in developing countries, especially in Indonesia. By using multiple linear regression models, surprisingly, we find that GDP and Minimum Wages have a positive and significant impact to increase employment while FDI does not affect employment in Indonesia.

Authors: Ganegama Pasan 
Published: December 2019

The study adopts a Focus group discussion than the more dominant quantitative data in studying Western Australian Business landscape and it’s local and global disrupters, repellents and extractors are exhaustively and critically analyzed. In order to ascertain needed competencies to navigate the next industrial revolution, current practices of government and non-government initiatives can be Juxtaposed to rowing and rafting phenomena. The current global strategic HR perspective should be focused, fast and flexible but the Australian Government and most corporate conglomerates view are it should be Safe, Slow and Strict. People make sense of their world where human actions are based upon the person's interpretation of events, societal meanings, intentions and beliefs (Gill and Johnson 20101; Denzin and Lincoln, 20052). The Australian public’s belief in navigating the next industrial revolution and the effect of Government policy-making is analyzed critically in this paper. The following two questions being answered with practical disparity and in the end, adjusted accordingly to make sense to the layman terms. First “Why we need to reimagine Human Resource Management perspective?” was unveiled. Secondly, the key features of future Human Resource Management were questioned. Thirdly what should the Australian corporates and Governments do differently to assimilate our workforce to reap benefits from the next industrial revolution is discussed. Finally championing the change using the right blend of leadership style and scale of change discussed in length to add clarity to the perspective.
