Stability Analysis of a Slurry Trench in Cohesive-Frictional Soils
Authors: Li Wei , Zhang Chengping 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
The slurry trench has become increasingly common in underground engineering and the stability of a slurry trench has been an important design issue. Although many studies have focused on the overall stability of a slurry trench, few of that are related to its local stability. Based on the limit analysis, both two dimensional and three dimensional rotational failure mechanisms for the local failure of a slurry trench in a sandwiched weak layer are proposed, and the upper solutions of 2D and 3D safety factors for local failure mechanisms are derived to evaluate the stability of a slurry trench. Moreover, a numerical analysis combined with the strength reduction technique is performed to investigate the local stability and the local failure process of a slurry trench. The proposed analytical method is verified through the comparison with the results of FLAC3D. Finally, a parametric study on the influences of geometric and geologic parameters on the local stability of the slurry trench are investigated. The results show that the investigation on the local stability of a slurry trench is effective and reasonable, which can provide a reference for the engineers in the practical engineering.

Abstract
Cenozoic basalt regions contain various natural resources that can be used for socio-economic development. Different quantitative and qualitative methods have been applied to understand the geological and geomorphological characteristics of basalt formations. Nowadays the integration of remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) has become a powerful method to distinguish geological formations. In this paper, authors combined satellite and fieldwork data to analyze the structure and morphology of highland geological formations in order to distinguish two main volcanic eruption episodes. Based on remote sensing analysis in this study, different spectral band ratios were generated to select the best one for basalt classification. Lastly, two spectral combinations (including band ratios 4/3, 6/2, 7/4 in Landsat 8 and 3/2, 5/1, 7/3 in Landsat 7) were chosen for the Maximum Likelihood classification. The final geological map based on the integration of Landsat 7 and 8 outcomes shows precisely the boundary of the basalt formations with the accuracy up to 93.7%. This outcome contributed significantly to the correction of geological maps. In further studies, authors suggest the integration of Landsat 7 and 8 data in geological studies and natural resource and environmental management at both local and regional scales.
The Common Law (And Not Roman) Origins of Amicus Curiae in International Law – Debunking a Fake News Item
Authors: Crema Luigi 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
The possibility for private entities interested in international trials but without the legal requirements to participate as a party was precluded, in a classical vision of international law made for states and addressed to states. At present, however, with some notable exceptions, several international jurisdictions allow for the submission of amicus curiae briefs. These briefs were introduced to international courts by common law lawyers. Legal literature generally identifies it as an institution of classical Roman law. This paper will show that this assumption is, however, doubtful. An examination of the sources cited by an important dictionary and other decades-old legal scholarship relied upon today as establishing the Roman origins of amicus curiae, and a fresh study of Roman and later continental European primary sources reveal a different picture: in reality, there is neither a basis for grounding the amicus curiae in Roman law, nor is there a basis for grounding it in the medieval continental ius commune. The primary source is most likely English common law and, not surprisingly, it was common law lawyers who introduced the briefs into international litigation.

Published: December 2019

Abstract

Background
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus continues to increase every year, including in Indonesia. To prevent complications of diabetes mellitus, patients need to adhere to therapy. The aim of this study was to assess patient adherence to diabetes mellitus drug therapy at Tanjung Karang Primary Health Care Center, Mataram.

Methods
A total of 60 participants were recruited in April–May 2019. The inclusion criteria of respondents were patients who were diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, treated at Tanjung Karang Primary Health Care Center for more than 1 month, and aged at least 18 years. Assessment of adherence to therapy was carried out using a validated questionnaire, which was the Adherence to Refill Medication Scale (ARMS) questionnaire. The scale used was the Likert scale (1–4) with a score range of 12–48. The higher the total score, the lower the compliance.

Results
The average age of the respondents was 54.97 years. The average ARMS score was 19.52 ± 5.688 with the lowest score of 12 and the highest score of 33. Among all respondents, only 8.3% had good adherence (total score of 12). Based on the subscales, the average score for refilling medicine and intentional nonadherence in taking medicine was 7.18 ± 2.383, the unintentional nonadherence in taking medicine was 8.13 ± 2.764, and the persistence in refilling medicine was 4.12 ± 1.738.

Conclusions
Patient medication adherence to the treatment of diabetes mellitus needs to be improved. An approach through healthcare professionals can be achieved so that the therapeutic outcome will be achieved.
Lost in Migration – Mirandese at a Crossroads
Authors: Martins Cláudia , Ferreira Sérgio 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
The linguistic rights of Mirandese were enshrined in Portugal in 1999, though its “discovery” dates back to the very end of the 19th century at the hands of Leite de Vasconcellos. For centuries, it was the first or only language spoken by people living in the northeast of Portugal, particularly the district of Miranda do Douro. As a minority language, it has always moved among three dimensions. On the one hand, the need to assert and defend this language and have it acknowledged by the country, which proudly believe(d) in their monolingual history. Unavoidably, this has ensued the action of translation, especially active from the mid of the 20th century onwards, with an emphasis on the translation of the Bible and Portuguese canonical literature, as well as other renowned literary forms (e.g. The Adventures of Asterix). Finally, the third axis lies in migration, either within Portugal or abroad. Between the 1950s and the 1960s, Mirandese people were forced to leave Miranda do Douro and villages in the outskirts in the thousands. They fled not only due to the deeply entrenched poverty, but also the almost complete absence of future prospects, enhanced by the fact that they were regarded as not speaking “good” Portuguese, but rather a “charra” language, and as ignorant backward people. This period coincided with the building of dams on the river Douro and the cultural and linguistic shock that stemmed from this forceful contact, which exacerbated their sense of not belonging and of social shame. Bearing all this in mind, we seek to approach the role that migration played not only in the assertion of Mirandese as a language in its own right, but also in the empowerment of new generations of Mirandese people, highly qualified and politically engaged in the defence of this minority language, some of whom were former migrants. Thus, we aim to depict Mirandese’s political situation before and after the endorsement of the Portuguese Law no. 7/99.
Bidirectional Optogenetically-Induced Plasticity of Evoked Responses in the Rat Medial Prefrontal Cortex Can Impair or Enhance Cognitive Set-Shifting

Published: December 2019

AbstractChronic stress compromises cognition, including executive function mediated in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). To investigate mechanisms underlying these processes, we use chronic unpredictable stress (CUS), which reduces activity in the mPFC and impairs cognitive set-shifting, a measure of cognitive flexibility in laboratory rats. It has been shown that CUS attenuates the local electrical field potential response evoked in the mPFC by stimulation of the ascending excitatory afferent from the mediodorsal thalamus (MDT). Thus, in this study, to investigate the role that such changes in afferent-evoked responsivity of the mPFC might play in the cognitive deficits induced by CUS, we used optogenetics to directly induce plastic changes in the thalamic-mPFC afferent pathway. Glutamatergic neurons in the MDT were virally-induced to express the ChETA variant of channelrhodopsin. Then, to first validate the optogenetic induction of plasticity, long-term depression (LTD) or long-term potentiation (LTP) were induced by laser stimulation of ChETA-expressing terminals in the mPFC of anesthetized rats. In subsequent experiments, induction of opto-LTD in awake animals produced set-shifting deficits similar to those induced by CUS. By contrast, inducing opto-LTP in rats that had received prior CUS treatment corrected the stress-induced deficit in set-shifting. These results suggest that stress-induced plasticity in the thalamic-mPFC pathway is sufficient to produce stress-induced cognitive deficits, and may represent a novel target for effective therapeutic intervention to correct cognitive impairment in stress-related psychiatric disorders.

The topic of this study is Anxiety and Defense Mechanism as A Means of Constructing Psychological Thriller in Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train. The objectives of this study are to describe how anxiety and defense mechanism are described in Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train and to explain how anxiety and defense mechanism construct psychological thriller as represented in Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train. The object of the study is a novel entitled The Girl on the Train written by Paula Hawkins. This study is descriptive qualitative study by applying Freudian psychoanalytic theory. The data of the study were collected by reading, identifying, interpreting, and inventorying citations from the novel. Further, the data were analyzed based on Freudian psychoanalytic theory by describing anxiety and defense mechanism described in the novel. The data were also analysed by explaining how anxiety and defense mechanism construct psychological thriller. The results show there are three kinds of anxiety and six kinds of defense mechanism. Moreover, the results prove that those anxieties and defense mechanisms become a means of constructing psychological thriller since they make the characters suffer from psychological problem and become unreliable narrator, create plot twist, and make the novel become thrilling.

Keywords: Psychological thriller; Freudian psychoanalysis; Anxiety; Defense Mechanism.
The Psychological Development of The Main Character of Becoming A Gang Leader through Frustration; Reflections on Dashner’s “The Maze Runner”

Published: December 2019

In this study, the writer emphasized the psychological development of the main character reflected in the story. Then the main character must convince the other, there is a better place outside the Glade. Therefore, this study aims to analyze how the process of psychological developments of being a leader through frustration and to analyze how the main character shows an ability to lead. This is a qualitative study using psychoanalytic approach by Sigmund Freud. The writer collected the data relating to the psychological development from frustration to being a leader by using The Maze Runner novel. The secondary data were taken from some sources, such as books, dictionary, encyclopedia, and also articles related to this research. Meanwhile the procedures for collecting data were done by reading, identifying, inventorying, classifying, selecting and reporting. In conducting the study, Freud’s psychoanalysis including id, ego, and superego are employed to reveal the main character frustration and shows the leadership ability in The Maze Runner. The findings of the analysis showed that; first, the causes of frustration are anxiety, hatred, and fear. It had been found that frustration was the results of the superego pressure that cannot be controlled by the ego. The frustration can be dangerous if the person who is frustrated does not fight against the pressure he gets. Second, there are seven leading ability which found in the novel such as having a purpose, curiosity, fairness, giving the suggestion, appreciates, and source of inspiration. Thomas is able to control the pressure from superego and his desire from id. He can make a good decision for his ego whether yielding his id or obey the superego. Then, he does not only focus on his frustration, but he can develop from frustration to be a good leader.

Published: December 2019

The aim of the study is to find out the type of illocutionary speech acts that used by native speakers and non-native speakers in Ellen Show. It also analyzes the identifier and the cross-cultural pragmatic background of the speeches. The subjects of the study are BTS as non-native speakers, One Direction and Ellen as native speakers. The study uses qualitative descriptive methods. The result indicated only four types of illocutionary speech acts that found in the videos, representatives, directives, commissive, and expressive. The proposition is dominated by representative’s speech acts with 59.7%, and the second is expressive speech acts with 30.1%. While commissive 5.3% and the last, directives speech acts are 4.9%. The each types of illocutionary speech acts have different identifier. First, expressive speech acts have based of the real situation, giving information, and giving opinion. Second, directives speech acts have direct, request or demand, and suggest or advice. Third, commissive speech acts has expecting future action and promising future action. And the last, expressive speech acts have emotion and attitude. Directives speech acts was not found because Ellen as a host of the show did not change the social status of the guests.

A controvérsia sobre as forças vivas e a primeira obra de Kant: na fronteira entre metafísica e ciência
Authors: Ribeiro Elton Cândido 
Published: December 2019

O presente artigo se propõe a oferecer uma abordagem introdutória da primeira obra de Immanuel Kant, os Pensamentos sobre a verdadeira estimação das forças vivas, publicada em 1749. Num primeiro momento, procura-se compreender as possíveis motivações de Kant ao publicar este trabalho em língua vernácula – mesmo em meio a dificuldades financeiras – a partir do ambiente da Universidade de Königsberg. Em seguida, alude-se brevemente ao contexto histórico-filosófico da controvérsia sobre as forças vivas que, basicamente, consistia numa diferença entre cartesianos e leibnizianos a respeito da mensuração da força de um corpo em movimento. Por fim, apresenta-se a posição de Kant no debate, tal como se encontra na referida obra, avaliando-a em seus aspectos científico, metafísico e metodológico. A tese central consiste em afirmar que, ainda que o primeiro escrito de Kant apresente lacunas no tocante ao conhecimento científico de seu tempo, oferece aportes interessantes para a compreensão do desenvolvimento filosófico do autor.

A essência do humano: identidade, memória, testemunho e trauma na obra “é isto um homem?” de primo Lévi
Authors: Camargo Cássio Michel Dos Santos 
Published: December 2019

Este artigo tem como objetivo a partir da análise da obra “É isto um homem?” de Primo Lévi, estabelecer ligação entre os conceitos de memória e identidade, destacando como lógica interna do campo de Auschwitz a impossibilidade de manutenção da identidade individual. Busca demonstrar como a “vivência irracional” dentro dos campos de concentração constitui uma memória traumática, a partir da análise dos testemunhos de Lévi, com os trabalhos dos autores referenciais na temática memória coletiva e individual, identidade e memória traumática. Entre estes utilizei Halbawachs e Catroga no contexto da constituição e usos da memória; M. Pollack para as questões da identidade; Paul Ricouer no tocante ao trabalho de luto e perdão; Sigmunt Baumann nos aspectos sobre o holocausto; H. Arendt sobre a violência e seus aspectos coercivos e Eric Hobsbawn, em um contexto histórico da Segunda Guerra.

On exponential decay of the variance of BLUE for the mean of a stationary sequence
Authors: Babayan Nikolay , Ginovyan Mamikon S. 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
In this paper, we obtain necessary as well as sufficient conditions for exponential rate of decrease of the variance of the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) for the unknown mean of a stationary sequence possessing a spectral density. In particular, we show that a necessary condition for variance of BLUE to decrease to zero exponentially is that the spectral density vanishes on a set of positive Lebesgue measure in any vicinity of zero.
Music Iconography, Opera, Gender and Cultural Revolution – The Case Study of the Kwok On Collection (Portugal)
Authors: Rocha Luzia Aurora 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
This study aims to revisit the creation of opera, symphonic versions of opera and ballet (yangbanxi) during the period of the Cultural Revolution of Mao's China. Beginning with the Kwok Collection (Fundação Oriente, Portugal), I aim to establish a new vision of the yangbanxi (production and reception) by means of an analysis of sources with musical iconography. The focus of the study is on questions of gender and the way in which the feminine was an indispensable tool for the construction and dissemination of the idea of a new nation-state. This study thus aims to make a new contribution to the area, showing how the construction of new opera heroines, communist and of the proletariat, is built on the image of the first “heroine-villain” constructed by the regime, Jiang Qing, the fourth wife of Mao Zedong. The title chosen demonstrates the paradox of the importance of woman in opera and in politics at a time when the only image to be left to posterity was that of a dominant male hero, Mao Zedong.
El modelo de agronegocios en los oasis de Mendoza (Argentina). Notas para una ecosíntesis territorial
Authors: Larsimont Robin 
Published: December 2019

Los márgenes de los oasis de la provincia de Mendoza adquirieron estas últimas décadas especial relevancia como focos de inversiones del Modelo de Agronegocios. Éste se destacó como el protagonista de una verdadera conquista en zonas periféricas de los oasis, expandiendo la frontera agrícola en base la adquisición de terrenos seleccionados por sus características edáficas, la explotación de aguas subterráneas y la aplicación de modernos sistemas de riego. Protagonizada por la llamada nueva vitivinicultura -caracterizada por la producción de vinos de alta calidad enológica y orientada al mercado internacional- esta dinámica se evidenció también en otros sectores frutícolas u hortícolas.

En base a una triangulación de datos cualitativos provenientes de fuentes primarias y secundarias indagamos las formas mediantes las cuales la expansión del Modelo de agronegocios incide material, discursiva y simbólicamente en la reconfiguración de la ruralidad en la provincia. Analizamos estas transformaciones en el marco de una eco-sintesis territorial, argumentando que la territorialidad del Modelo de Agronegocios actúa de manera confinada, zonal y en red.
