Common and Comprehensive European Definition of Hate-Speech Alternative Proposal
Authors: Teršek Andraž 
Published: August 2020

AbstractEurope needs to define the term and legal (criminal & constitutional) concept of “hate speech” precisely. The definition must be written in legal literature and in legislation. It must also be offered by the European Constitutional Courts and, last but not least, by the ECtHR. A descriptive definition offered inter alia by the ECtHR judgement in case of Vejdeland vs. Sweden (2012) was only a guidance. The new ECtHR judgement in the case of Carl Jóhann Lilliendahl vs. Iceland (11th of June 2020) addressed “homophobic speech” as “hate speech” directly. By combining the ECtHR case-law on freedom of expression in the last five years with understanding of this concept in the Slovenian Criminal Code (and with only subordinated reference to the understanding of this term by the European Commission) the author offers an alternative proposal for a new, common and comprehensive European definition of “hate speech.”

Abstract
Fatigue tests were carried out on compression mouldings supplied by a leading polymer manufacturer. They were made from three batches of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with weight-average relative molar masses,

, of about 0.6 × 106, 5 × 106 and 9 × 106. In 10 mm thick compact tension specimens, crack propagation was so erratic that it was impossible to follow standard procedure, where crack-tip stress intensity amplitude, ΔK, is raised incrementally, and the resulting crack propagation rate, da/dN, increases, following the Paris equation, where a is crack length and N is number of cycles. Instead, most of the tests were conducted at fixed high values of ΔK. Typically, da/dN then started at a high level, but decreased irregularly during the test. Micrographs of fracture surfaces showed that crack propagation was sporadic in these specimens. In one test, at ΔK = 2.3 MPa m0.5, there were crack-arrest marks at intervals Δa of about 2 μm, while the number of cycles between individual growth steps increased from 1 to more than 1000 and the fracture surface showed increasing evidence of plastic deformation. It is concluded that sporadic crack propagation was caused by energy-dissipating crazing, which was initiated close to the crack tip under plane strain conditions in mouldings that were not fully consolidated. By contrast, fatigue crack propagation in 4 mm thick specimens followed the Paris equation approximately. The results from all four reports on this project are reviewed, and the possibility of using fatigue testing as a quality assurance procedure for melt-processed UHMWPE is discussed.

Published: August 2020

AbstractArterial tissue delamination, manifested as the fracture failure between arterial layers, is an important process of the atherosclerotic plaque rupture, leading to potential life-threatening clinical consequences. Numerous models have been used to characterize the arterial tissue delamination fracture failure. However, only a few have investigated the effect of cohesive zone model (CZM) shapes on predicting the delamination behavior of the arterial wall. In this study, four types of CZMs (triangular, trapezoidal, linear–exponential, and exponential–linear) were investigated to compare their prediction of the arterial wall fracture failure. The Holzapfel–Gasser–Ogden (HGO) model was adopted for modeling the mechanical behavior of the aortic bulk material. The CZMs optimized during the comparison of the aortic media delamination simulations were also used to perform the comparative study of the mouse plaque delamination and human fibrous cap delamination. The results show that: (1) the numerical predicted the relationships of force–displacement in the delamination behaviors based on the triangular, trapezoidal, linear–exponential, and exponential–linear CZMs match well with the experimental measurements. (2) The traction–separation relationship results simulated by the four types of CZMs could react well as the corresponding CZM shapes. (3) The predicted load–load point displacement curves using the triangular and exponential–linear CZMs are in good agreement with the experimental data, relative to the other two shapes of CZMs. All these provide a new method combined with the factor of shape in the cohesive models to simulate the crack propagation behaviors and can capture the arterial tissue failure response well.

AbstractIn order to obtain the influence of different seismic motion input modes on the performance of isolated structures with different seismic measures, the two aspects from near-fault seismic motion velocity pulse input and different dimension seismic motion input modes are studied. The finite element model of traditional seismic and base isolation frame structure with different aspect ratios is established. The actual near-seismic strong earthquake record with forward directional effect and slipping speed pulse is used as the input method of structural seismic motion to carry out nonlinear dynamics. The different dimensional seismic motion input method is selected as the quantitative, the tensile–compression stiffness ratio is the variable, and the time-history analysis of the isolation performance of a high-rise isolated structure is carried out. The experimental results show that for structures with an aspect ratio H/B of 1, 2, 3, and 4, the smaller the aspect ratio is, the better the damping effect is; the different dimensional vibration input has less isolation performance for the isolation bearing. From small to large, it is: one-dimensional vibration input, two-dimensional vibration input, three-dimensional vibration input.

Published: August 2020

AbstractReluctance forces are the main cause of vibration in electrical machines. The influence of magnetostriction is still the matter of controversy. In the article, program Ansys (typical for finite element method) was used to analyze stator deformation due to magnetic forces (Maxwell and magnetostriction) for the different boundaries and different methods by taking into account the windings in the mechanical model. Different parameters of numerical model are important factors affecting the level of magnetostriction deformation.

Abstract
Neodymium niobate NdNbO4 (NNO) and tantalate NdTaO4 (NTO) thin films (~100 nm) were prepared by sol-gel/spin-coating process on Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3/Al2O3 substrates with annealing at 1000°C. The precursors of films were synthesized using Nb or Ta tartrate complexes. The XRD results of NNO and NTO films confirmed tetragonal T-NdNbO4 and T-NdTaO4 phases, respectively, with traces of monoclinic MNdNbO4 and M´-NdTaO4. The surface morphology and topography were investigated by SEM and AFM analysis. NTO was smoother with roughness 5.24 nm in comparison with NNO (6.95 nm). In the microstructure of NNO, small spherical (~ 20-50 nm) T-NdNbO4 and larger needle-like particles (~100 nm) of M-NdNbO4 phase were observed. The compact clusters composed of fine spherical T-NdTaO4 particles (~ 50 nm) and cuboidal M´-NdTaO4 particles (~ 100 nm) were found in NTO. The results of this work can contribute to formation of different polymorphs of films for the application in environmental electrolytic thin film devices.

Abstract
The influence of die wall lubrication during warm die compaction on densification, microstructure and mechanical properties of three low alloy ferrous powders was investigated. Specimens were sintered at 1250°C. Die wall lubrication leads to higher green and sintered density and enhances the dimensional stability. It does not affect the microstructure of the matrix, while pores are smaller and more rounded than in bulk lubricated specimens. In TRS tests, both strength and deformation are higher in die wall lubricated specimens than bulk lubricated ones.
Virus, bats and drugs

Abstract
Apart from SARS-Co-V-2 coronavirus, bats also host many highly virulent zoonotic pathogens. A matter of rising concern is the detrimental impact of pharmaceuticals in the environment, as they can have major impact at low concentrations. Insectivorous bats are among the wildlife animals likely to be exposed due to the bioaccumulation through the food web. Bat’s behaviour might be deeply affected by human psychoactive drugs. Current massive antiviral use activity will increase environmental concentrations of these pharmaceuticals, for whose potential eco-toxicological consequences are scarce. We need to study the complex interrelation between people, bats, drugs, viruses, and their shared environment.
Storytelling: representaciones mediáticas de las memorias en Colombia
Authors: Pardo Abril Neyla Graciela 
Published: August 2020

Abstract
Collective memories are multiple discursive practices, in which social representations about a common past are used to build and maintain cohesion and identity of groups socio-historically located at a socio-culturally determined moment and to project future in frameworks of rights and dignity. It is understood that the memories articulated to the Colombian armed conflict are diverse: different stories of violence, oppression and resistance of peoples, communities and groups are identified and made explicit. Thirty media narratives distributed in the ElTiempo.com Special “Thirty encounters with peace” (2017) comprise the universe of research. The sample is made up of seven narratives that propose the sense of testimony. The selected format is storytelling, which is built in the special edition of the newspaper as a communication proposal for the reconstruction of the social fabric, within the year after the signing of the Peace Agreement between the National Government and the FARC-EP (post-agreement). The research is nucleated on situations of rights violations linked to the conflict, and the proposals derived from these narratives, as regards the overcoming of the exercises of violence to which they refer. The analysis is assumed from the principles of Multimodal and Multimedia Critical Discourse Studies (MMCDS). The forms of representation in the discourses, their multimodal articulations and the multimedia implications in the production of meanings are articulated; the final aim is to derive sociopolitical consequences of the discursive proposal, constructed and socialized in the narratives of the special edition of the newspaper.
Die Empfehlungen des Fintech-Rates zur Regulierung von Blockchains im Lichte ungeklärter Fragen der Haftung
Authors: Thießen Friedrich 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThis paper examines the recommendations of the German Fintech Council of March 2019 regarding a future blockchain strategy for Germany. The recommendations are the Fintech Council’s response to the German government’s wish to develop a blockchain strategy. The proposals contain many valuable elements, whereby the principle of liability is neglected. Cases from the short history of blockchain applications prove severe problems and show the extent to which the principle of liability is violated. Liability is one of the fundamental pillars of functioning market economies. There seems to be a tendency in Europe to underrate or under-emphasise the principle of liability when innovative digital developments are looked at. As long as developments are at the experimental stage, there is no objection to this. But in real operation, adequate liability is indispensable. It is the aim of this article to recall this.
Was bedeuten die Vertrauensguteigenschaften der Jahresabschlussprüfung für die Regulierung der Wirtschaftsprüferhaftung?
Authors: Ritzer-Angerer Petra 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThe annual audit is the auditors’ main activity. It includes risk analysis, planning and execution. Credence goods are special goods or services whose suppliers have superior information about the quality, e. g. therapies or repairs. The customer cannot evaluate whether the service was appropriate. As the audit is sophisticated and a professional act, it is reasonable to assume that the auditor is better informed. Hence the audit can be considered a credence good. This article discusses two questions: Does the audit comply with the characteristics of credence goods and can regulation – especially of the auditor’s liability – mitigate the audit market problems caused by this?
Local Design Principles at Hippocampal Synapses Revealed by an Energy-Information Trade-Off
Authors: Mahajan Gaurang , Nadkarni Suhita 
Published: August 2020

AbstractSynapses across different brain regions display distinct structure-function relationships. We investigated the interplay of fundamental design constraints that shape the transmission properties of the excitatory CA3-CA1 pyramidal cell connection, a prototypic synapse for studying the mechanisms of learning in the mammalian hippocampus. This small synapse is characterized by probabilistic release of transmitter, which is markedly facilitated in response to naturally occurring trains of action potentials. Based on a physiologically motivated computational model of the rat CA3 presynaptic terminal, we show how unreliability and short-term dynamics of vesicular release work together to regulate the trade-off of information transfer versus energy use. We propose that individual CA3-CA1 synapses are designed to operate near the maximum possible capacity of information transmission in an efficient manner. Experimental measurements reveal a wide range of vesicular release probabilities at hippocampal synapses, which may be a necessary consequence of long-term plasticity and homeostatic mechanisms that manifest as presynaptic modifications of the release probability. We show that the timescales and magnitude of short-term plasticity (STP) render synaptic information transfer nearly independent of differences in release probability. Thus, individual synapses transmit optimally while maintaining a heterogeneous distribution of presynaptic strengths indicative of synaptically-encoded memory representations. Our results support the view that organizing principles that are evident on higher scales of neural organization percolate down to the design of an individual synapse.
1 Corinthians 10:1–4: The Rhetorical-Poetic Effect of Vividness and Emotions in Paul's Exhortation to Monotheism in the Context of 10:1–22
Authors: Córdova Nélida Naveros 
Published: August 2020

In 1 Cor. 10:1–22, Paul deals with the role of Christ and his relationship to God. This is an important ethical topic that Paul deems necessary to discuss with the Corinthian believers. In order to make an effective, thus persuasive, argument, he follows the ancient Greco-Roman tradition of rhetoric and poetics. I argue that vv. 1–4 is Paul's introduction to his vivid representation of monotheism (vv. 5–22). As he presents his narrative of the wilderness events, he employs various rhetorical-poetic techniques to evoke in his hearers imaginative and emotional experiences that will transport them into a higher level of ethical consciousness, a new monotheistic reality in Christ.

Creative Problem Solving (CPS) learning model supports students to focus on learning and skill processes. CPS learning, students could select, process, and develop their responses in solving a problem creatively. Metacognition plays an important role in CPS since it could monitor students in selecting and using strategy to improve further cognitive performance. This research aims to find out effectiveness of CPS learning model on mathematics creative thinking skill reviewed from students’ metacognitions. This mixed method research used sequential explanatory design. The population consisted of VIII graders at SMP N 4 Kudus. The samples consisted of experimental class with CPS learning and control class with discovery learning. The first stage of thr research was quantitative data collection. It were done using test and questionnaires to categorized the subject. The next stage was qualitative data collections which were done by using questionnaires and interview. Data of quantitative data were triangulated with the qualitative data to gain the goal of the research. The findings showed that CPS model was effective to improve creative thinking skill reviewed from students’ metacognitions. Students with high metacognition in the experimental class are more creative than the control class. CPS learning can improve students' creative thinking through the stages of idea finding to acceptance finding, because students can find new ideas and choose the right solution from some of the ideas they have. Mathematics creative thinking skill of the students with high metacognition shown form the students’ ability in writing problem solving skill of creative questions logically and could provide other notions. Students with medium category have the similar achievement but can correct errors; meanwhile students with low metacognition can wrote problem solving skill of creative questions quite logically and still have problems in giving ideas.

Authors: Elmore Amanda L. , Tanner Jean Paul , Lowry Joseph , Lake-Burger Heather , Kirby Russell S. , Hudak Mark L. , Sappenfield William M. , Salemi Jason L. 
Published: August 2020

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
The increase in neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) has underscored the need for NAS surveillance programs, but many rely on passive surveillance using unverified diagnosis codes. Few studies have evaluated the validity of these codes, and no study has assessed the recently proposed Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) case definition. The Florida Birth Defects Registry investigated the accuracy of International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification codes related to NAS (P96.1 and P04.49) and assessed the sensitivity of the CSTE case definition.

METHODS:
We identified a sample of infants born during 2016 coded with P96.1 and/or P04.49. Record review was completed for 128 cases coded with P96.1, 68 with P04.49, and 7 with both codes. Lacking consensus regarding a gold standard definition of NAS, we used clinical data to classify each case using the Florida and CSTE definitions. The code-specific accuracy was measured by using the positive predictive value (PPV). The clinical characteristics indicative of NAS were compared for case classification based on both definitions.

RESULTS:
By using the Florida definition, the overall PPV was 68% but varied by code: 95.3% for P96.1 and 13.2% for P04.49. The overall (47.8%) and code-specific PPVs were lower by using the CSTE definition. Comparison of clinical characteristics demonstrated that 60.7% of cases classified as no NAS by using the CSTE definition had robust clinical signs of NAS. In our sample, the CSTE case definition underestimated NAS prevalence.

CONCLUSIONS:
Only the P96.1 International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification code displayed high accuracy. Discordance in NAS case definitions and surveillance methodologies may result in erroneous comparisons and conclusions that negatively impact NAS-related surveillance and research.

Published: August 2020

En el presente trabajo se realiza la caracterización del comportamiento ante el desgaste por deslizamiento en seco de un acero inoxidable súper dúplex. Los ensayos fueron desarrollados en un tribómetro tipo bola sobre anillo. Como material del anillo se empleó el acero inoxidable dúplex tipo SAF 2507 sin tratamiento térmico y como material para la bola se usó el acero AISI 52100. Los ensayos se realizaron sin lubricante en condiciones de ambiente (aire), temperatura y humedad estándar de laboratorio. Los parámetros seleccionados, a fin de estudiar sus efectos en el coeficiente desgaste por deslizamiento, fueron: velocidad de deslizamiento (0,9 m/s y 2 m/s), carga normal (9 N, 19 N y 29 N) y distancias de deslizamiento (500 m, 1000 m y 2000 m). Se empleó un diseño experimental de Taguchi con nueve tratamientos y dos réplicas. En la caracterización del acero SAF 2507 se obtuvo valores del coeficiente de desgaste en el intervalo desde 0,19588 x 10-12 m2/N hasta 0,72381 x 10-12 m2/N, para las condiciones evaluadas. El factor que más afecta el coeficiente de desgaste es la velocidad de deslizamiento. El mecanismo de desgaste identificado para el SAF 2507 es de adhesión y delaminación de alta velocidad.

Published: August 2020

Background and Study Aim. The aerobic fitness in soccer is an important performance component. The aerobic endurance level of players may positively effect performance of critical match activities. The examination of Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test (YYIRT) performance of young soccer players at different playing positions was aimed in this study.
Material and Methods. The research group was consisted of 75 young soccer players playing at U-21 category of professional soccer teams at different leagues. The soccer players at 5 different playing positions participated in study voluntarily (centerback: n=15, fullback: midfielder: n=15, winger: n=15, forward: n=15). The YYIRT (level 1) was performed for determination aerobic endurance parameters (covered distance during test, maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) and maximal aerobic speed (MAS) of players. The one-way ANOVA analysis was used for comparison between playing positions of YYIRT parameters.
Results. It was determined that difference between YYIRT parameters of players at different playing positions was non-significant (p>0.05). However, the midfielders covered more distance (2425,33±440,42 m) than forward (2146,67±339,64 m), winger (2137,33±615,18 m), fullback (2056,00±512,43 m) and centerback (1960,00±313,51 m) players. The positional requirements of midfielders may be decisive on covered distance during YYIRT.
Conclusions. Consequently, it may be said that the young soccer players at different playing positions had similar YYIRT performance and the playing position effect on YYIRT performance could vary depending on league level and individual features of players.
