Wilfried Steiner’s Der Weg nach Xanadu – an Austrian Campus Novel?
Authors: Fuchs Dieter 
Published: December 2019

This article focuses on Wilfried Steiner’s 2003 novel Der Weg nach Xanadu / The Way To Xanadu which appears to be an Austrian campus novel owing to the setting of the Austrian world of academia in its first part. Owing to its lack of local coloring, however, the Vienna-based plot of the first part does not feature a (stereo)typically ‘Austrian’ genius loci. Although this part of the text echoes features of the international campus novel tradition, it may be definitely not considered an Austrian campus novel. The second part of the novel is set in the Lake District, focuses on Coleridge’s Romantic poetry and the Doppelgänger-motif. Whereas the first part may be vaguely contextualized within the international campus novel tradition, the second part is deeply imbued with the Romantic tradition of the Künstlerroman or artist’s novel.
Refugee Experience in Alan Gratz’s Refugee and Gillian Cross’ After Tomorrow Margarete Rubik Summary As a response to recent
Authors: Rubik Margarete 
Published: December 2019

As a response to recent mass migratory movements, numerous children’s novels about refugees have been published in the last decades. The paper analyses two of these novels, Alan Gratz’s Refugee (2017) and Gillian Cross’s After Tomorrow (2013), and puts them into the context of the ‘transcultural turn’ in cultural studies. The paper also presents the results of a survey among university lecturers of various countries about the benefits, challenges and teaching aims of including migrant and refugee literature into the courses they teach.
On the flood peak distributions over China
Authors: Yang Long , Wang Lachun , Li Xiang , Gao Jie 
Published: December 2019

Abstract. Here we for the first time present a nationwide characterization of flood hazards across China. Our analysis is based on an exceptional dataset of 1120 stream gauging stations with continuous records of annual flood peaks for at least 50 years across the entire country. Our results are organized by centering on various aspects of flood peak distributions, including temporal changes in flood series and their spatial variations, the statistical distribution of extreme values, and the properties of storms that lead to annual flood peaks. These aspects altogether contribute to an improved understanding of flood hydrology under a changing environment over China and promote advances in flood science at the global scale. Historical changes in annual flood peaks demonstrate frequent abrupt changes rather than slowly varying trends. The dominance of decreasing annual flood peak magnitudes indicates a weakening tendency of flood hazards over China in recent decades. We model the upper tails of flood peaks based on the generalized extreme value (GEV) distributions. The GEV shape parameter is weakly dependent on drainage area, but it shows spatial splits tied to rainfall climatology between northern and southern China. Landfalling tropical cyclones play an important role in characterizing the upper-tail properties of flood peak distributions especially in northern China and southeastern coast, while the upper tails of flood peaks are dominated by extreme monsoon rainfall in southern China. Severe flood hazards associated with landfalling tropical cyclones are characterized by complex interactions of storm circulations with synoptic environments (i.e., mid-latitude baroclinic disturbances) and regional topography.
Vicente Poleró: pintor, restaurador y teórico
Authors: Moraleda Gamero María 
Published: December 2019

A mediados del siglo XIX se produce un importante avance en la configuración de la restauración de pintura como disciplina autónoma y se empiezan a aplicar criterios modernos. En el presente trabajo, nos enfocamos en el estudio de Vicente Poleró, pintor, restaurador y tratadista, cuya labor teórica es fundamental para entender esta evolución y profesionalización en el ámbito español.
Hacemos un estudio de su perfil biográfico, del que apenas se ha ocupado la historiografía, a partir de sus escritos y de algunas noticias documentales. Nació en Cádiz en 1824, pero vivió y desarrolló su carrera en Madrid, hasta su muerte en 1911. Formó parte de la Sala de Restauración del Real Museo, realizando labores de restauración, conservación y catalogación. Escribió el primer y más importante tratado de restauración en España, además de otros textos de interés museográfico, histórico-artístico y de protección del patrimonio artístico.
¿Para qué sirven los dictados? Representaciones de los futuros maestros de primaria
Authors: Cicres Jordi , Llach Sílvia 
Published: December 2019

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar los conocimientos y las creencias de los maestros de enseñanza primaria sobre el dictado, una actividad que ha sido objeto de diferentes visiones a través de distintas teorías de la enseñanza y el aprendizaje. Para ello, hemos diseñado un cuestionario compuesto por preguntas abiertas y lo hemos administrado a 150 estudiantes de segundo curso del grado de Maestro en Educación Primaria y del doble grado de Maestro en Educación Primaria y Maestro en Educación Infantil de la Universidad de Gerona (antes de realizar sus prácticas en las escuelas). Los resultados del cuestionario se han analizado mediante técnicas cualitativas y análisis estadístico de conglomerados jerárquicos. Los datos analizados revelan que la mayoría de los estudiantes solo conocen entre dos y tres dictados distintos, aunque algunos estudiantes llegan a mencionar hasta cinco. Considerando los usos del dictado, hemos observado que los estudiantes encuestados entienden que el uso predominante de esta actividad es mejorar o evaluar el conocimiento de la ortografía. Estos dos aspectos, los tipos y usos predominantes, también han sido agrupados por el análisis estadístico realizado. En relación con esto, el trabajo incluye recomendaciones finales para promover prácticas de dictado más variadas, para integrarlas de forma natural en prácticas pedagógicas coherentes de cada centro educativo, que estén de acuerdo con las visiones contemporáneas del aprendizaje.
Hepatoselüler Karsinom ve Diğer Karaciğer Tümörlerinin Ayrımında Difüzyon Ağırlıklı Manyetik Rezonans Görüntülemenin Etkinliği
Authors: ERDOĞAN Hasan , ARSLAN Serdar , DURMAZ Mehmet Sedat 
Published: December 2019

Amaç: Difüzyon ağırlıklı manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG), dokulardaki su moleküllerinin difüzyonuna bağlı hareketlerinin ölçümü prensibine dayanan bir MRG yönetimidir. Hepatoselüler karsinom (HSK), karaciğerin en sık görülen primer malign tümörü olup, erken evrede diğer lezyonlardan ayırt edilebilmesi küratif tedavi açısından çok önemlidir. Biz bu çalışmada, HSK'yı, metastaz, kolanjiokarsinom ve fokal nodüler hiperplazi (FNH) gibi diğer sık görülen karaciğer fokal lezyonlarından ayırt etmede difüzyon MRG'nin etkinliğini araştırmayı amaçladık.
Yöntemler: Histopatolojik olarak HSK, metastaz, kolanjiokarsinom ve FNH tanısı mevcut olan toplam 157 hastanın difüzyon MRG görüntüleri retrospektif olarak taranarak, lezyonların görünür difüzyon katsayısı (ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient) ölçümleri yapıldı. ADC değerleri istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırılarak, özellikle HSK'yı diğer lezyonlardan ayırt etmede ADC değerlerinin tanıya katkı sağlayıp sağlamadığı değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Ortalama ADC değerleri, çalışmamıza dahil ettiğimiz 38 HSK olgusunda 836,6 ± 182,4 x10-6 mm2/sn, 22 kolanjiokarsinom olgusunda 801,4 ± 239,4 x10-6 mm2/sn, 77 metastaz olgusunda 923,7 ± 279,0 x10-6 mm2/sn ve 20 FNH olgusunda 1202,9 ± 139,3 x10-6 mm2/sn olarak ölçüldü. HSK ile FNH'ın ADC değerleri arasında anlamlı istatistiksel fark saptandı. HSK ile diğer fokal lezyonlar arasında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark saptanmadı.
Sonuç: HSK'yı FNH'dan ayırt etmede ADC değerleri tanıya ek katkı sağlarken, HSK'yı kolanjiokarsinom ve metastazdan ayırt etmede ADC değerleri tanıya ek katkı sağlamamaktadır.
Akut İnmede Risk Faktörü ve Prognoz Üzerine Etkisi ile Magnezyum
Authors: ÖZTÜRK Ünal , AYDIN ÖZTÜRK Pınar , ASENA Muhammet 
Published: December 2019

Amaç: Serebrovasküler olay önemli bir morbidite ve mortalite nedenidir. Serebrovasküler hastalıkların
değiştirilebilen nedenlerinin belirlenmesi serebrovasküler olayın engellenmesi ve/veya morbidite ve mortalitenin
azaltılmasında önem arz etmektedir.
Magnezyumun hayvan modellerinde nöroproteksiyon sağladığına dair kanıtlar olsa da, serebrovasküler olay sırasında
magnezyum etkinliğine dair sınırlı klinik kanıt bulunmaktadır.
Bu çalışma ile serebrovasküler olayda magnezyumun değiştirilebilir bir risk faktörü olarak değerlendirilmesi ve
mortalite üzerine etkisinin olup olmadığının araştırılması planlandı.
Yöntemler: Retrospektif olan çalışmamıza 1203 hasta dahil edildi. Hastalar serebrovasküler olay ve kontrol olmak
üzere 2 gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların magnezyum düzeyleri yatışın birinci gününde ölçüldü. Çalışmaya hastaların yaşı,
cinsiyeti, serum magnezyum düzeyi, hipertansiyon/diyabet varlığı ve hastaların son durumu dahil edildi.
Bulgular: Hastaların %52,7’si erkek, %47,3’ü kadındı. Serebrovasküler olay grubunda E/K:0.94 olarak bulundu.
Serebrovasküler olayın %26,7’si hemorajik serebrovasküler olay, %73,3’ü iskemik serebrovasküler olay olarak takip
edilmiştir. Kontrol grubu ortalama serum magnezyum düzeyi 2,28 mg/dL, serebrovasküler olay grubu için ortalama
1,87 mg/dL’ydi. Kontrol grubunda diyabet oranı %5,6, serebrovasküler olay grubunda diyabet oranı %11,5 olarak
saptanmıştır. Kontrol grubunda hipertansiyon oranı %54,8, serebrovasküler olay grubunda hipertansiyon oranı
%60,9 olarak saptanmıştır. Kontrol grubunda mortalite oranı %1,6 iken serebrovasküler olay grubunda mortalite
oranı %20,8 olarak bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Serebrovasküler olay hastalarında erkek cinsiyet oranının literatürlerden düşük, hemorajik serebrovasküler
olay oranının literatürlerden yüksek olarak saptanması dikkat çekici bir özellikti. Düşük serum magnezyum düzeyinin
serebrovasküler olay için bir risk faktörü olabileceği ancak tek başına mortalite üzerine etkisi olmadığı gözlenmiştir.
Diyabetes mellitus ve hipertansiyonun serum magnezyum ile ilişkisinin olmaması, serebrovasküler olay hastalarında
mortalitenin literatürlerden düşük oranda saptandığı elde edilen diğer verilerdir.
La violence contre soi-même dans le terrorisme contemporain
Authors: Imbeault Marc 
Published: December 2019

Ce texte est une réflexion sur la « quête de la mort » dans le djihadisme contemporain. Cette quête serait, d’après Olivier Roy, l’élément fondamental du projet des jeunes générations de terroristes. Pour comprendre le phénomène, des textes de Freud et d’Hélène L’Heuillet sont d’abord analysés. Il en ressort que le terrorisme n’était pas, auparavant, associé à la volonté de mourir, mais plutôt à la volonté de combattre au risque de mourir, ce qui est différent. Cette approche est cependant problématique à certains égards. Car il est également vrai que la quête de la mort est une constante des « profondeurs » de la psyché humaine et, qu’en ce sens, il n’est pas surprenant de la voir ressurgir au sein du terrorisme et du djihadisme. Il est nécessaire de rappeler, avec Monique Lauret, l’importance d’utiliser avec prudence l’hypothèse freudienne de la pulsion de mort, sans oublier le cas particulier des femmes « volontaires de la mort ».
Le débat entre Gilles Kepel et Olivier Roy. Anatomie d’un désaccord
Authors: Boily Frédéric 
Published: December 2019

Cet article propose un examen des débats et controverses qui sont survenus entre deux spécialistes français, Gilles Kepel et Olivier Roy, reconnus pour leurs travaux sur l’islamisme. Il s’agit d’examiner les deux thèses opposées à la lumière de l’importance qui est accordée ou non à la variable idéologique afin d’expliquer les actes terroristes qui ont frappé la France et fait des centaines de victimes dans les dernières années. L’article se penche sur trois dimensions en particulier. La première concerne l’importance de l’idéologie islamiste comme facteur explicatif des actes de terreur, alors que la seconde explore celle de la révolution des technologies de l’information en tant que véhicule dans l’émergence du radicalisme. Enfin, la dernière section revient sur le profil sociologique et psychologique de ceux qui ont commis des actes terroristes afin de voir s’il faut parler de « fous de Dieu » ou de criminels. L’article permet ainsi de saisir les oppositions théoriques et sociologiques qui existent entre les lectures de Kepel et de Roy.
Le juge et la victime dans le cadre du processus de détermination de la peine
Authors: Dubé Richard , Garcia Margarida 
Published: December 2019

Dans le présent article, les auteurs ont voulu mieux connaître le point de vue des juges canadiens quant au rôle et à l’incidence de la déclaration des victimes d’actes criminels concernant le processus décisionnel de la détermination de la peine (sentencing). De plus en plus engagées dans ce processus, les victimes exercent-elles une influence en la matière ? Contribuent-elles au durcissement du régime des peines au Canada ? Quels avantages et désavantages les juges attribuent-ils à ce rapprochement victimaire ? Autant de questions qui ont été explorées à travers des entretiens qualitatifs réalisés auprès de magistrats canadiens. Les résultats obtenus laissent entrevoir certains risques certes, mais ils permettent en général de conclure en faveur d’un encadrement plutôt strict qui ne menace ni l’indépendance judiciaire ni les garanties juridiques du justiciable.

Price Spread for Capsicum in Akola District of Maharashtra
Authors: Chopde K. D. 
Published: December 2019

The price spread refers to the difference between the price received by the growers and the price paid by the consumers. It was observed that there were wide variations of price received by the growers and the price paid by the ultimate consumer. This study was conducted for estimation of marketing cost, marketing margin and price spread through different marketing channels of capsicum in Akola district. The study was based on primary data and secondary data for the year 2016-17, collected from the vegetable market of Patur, Barshitakli, Akola and Murtizapur tehsils in Akola districts of Maharashtra, the total 120 producers,10 wholesaler, 10 retailers were selected for the study. Two major marketing channels were identified for the capsicum i.e. channel-I: Producer→ Wholesaler→ Retailer→ Consumer, Channel-II: Producer→ Retailer →Consumer. The channel -I was found most important channel of distribution. Producer‘s share in consumer’s rupees was highest in channel II as compared to cannel I were worked out 68.11 and 56.79 per cent. Wide variation were observed in the constraints of capsicum growers. Price spread of capsicum not only show the cost and margins at different levels of marketing by different agencies but also show a clear picture of entire system of marketing of capsicum. Wide variation were observed in the problems faced by the capsicum growers. Lack of processing facilities, lack of storage facility, high commission charges, lack of financial facility etc. Thus establishment of modern regulated market along with proper storage facilities in nearby areas will go a long way in enhancing the income of the farmers. Higher marketing efficiency and better return to producers through direct marketing. This is a clear indicator for developing farmers market in the region and As such establishment of producers co-operation to reap the benefit from cultivation on marketing of capsicum crop is suggested.

Published: December 2019

AbstractSignificant efforts exist to develop living/non‐living composite materials—known as biohybrids—that can support and control the functionality of biological agents. To enable the production of broadly applicable biohybrid materials, new tools are required to improve replicability, scalability, and control. Here, the Hybrid Living Material (HLM) fabrication platform is presented, which integrates computational design, additive manufacturing, and synthetic biology to achieve replicable fabrication and control of biohybrids. The approach involves modification of multimaterial 3D‐printer descriptions to control the distribution of chemical signals within printed objects, and subsequent addition of hydrogel to object surfaces to immobilize engineered Escherichia coli and facilitate material‐driven chemical signaling. As a result, the platform demonstrates predictable, repeatable spatial control of protein expression across the surfaces of 3D‐printed objects. Custom‐developed orthogonal signaling resins and gene circuits enable multiplexed expression patterns. The platform also demonstrates a computational model of interaction between digitally controlled material distribution and genetic regulatory responses across 3D surfaces, providing a digital tool for HLM design and validation. Thus, the HLM approach produces biohybrid materials of wearable‐scale, self‐supporting 3D structure, and programmable biological surfaces that are replicable and customizable, thereby unlocking paths to apply industrial modeling and fabrication methods toward the design of living materials.

AbstractChitosan (CS) is a biocompatible, inexpensive organic polymer that is increasingly used in neural tissue applications. However, its intrinsic fluorescence has not yet been leveraged to facilitate localization of neural interface devices, a key procedure to ensure accurate analysis of neurophysiological signals. A process is developed to enable control of mechanical and chemical properties of CS‐based composites, generating freestanding films that are stable in aqueous environments and exhibit concentration‐dependent fluorescence intensity. The shape and location of CS‐coated probes are reliably visualized in vitro and in vivo using fluorescence microscopy. Furthermore, CS neural probe marking is fully compatible with classical immunohistochemical and histological techniques, enabling localization of high spatiotemporal resolution surface electrocorticography arrays in adult rats and mouse pups. CS composites have the potential to simplify and streamline experimental procedures required to efficiently acquire, localize, and interpret neurophysiological data.

AbstractControlling the selective one‐to‐one conjugation of RNA with nanoparticles is vital for future applications of RNA nanotechnology. Here, the monofunctionalization of a gold nanoparticle (AuNP) with a single copy of RNA is developed for ultrasensitive microRNA‐155 quantification using electrochemical surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (EC‐SERS). A single AuNP is conjugated with one copy of the packaging RNA (pRNA) three‐way junction (RNA 3WJ). pRNA 3WJ containing one strand of the 3WJ is connected to a Sephadex G100 aptamer and a biotin group at each arm (SEPapt/3WJ/Bio) which is then immobilized to the Sephadex G100 resin. The resulting complex is connected to streptavidin‐coated AuNP (STV/AuNP). Next, the STV/AuNP–Bio/3WJa is purified and reassembled with another 3WJ to form a single‐labeled 3WJ/AuNP. Later, the monoconjugate is immobilized onto the AuNP‐electrodeposited indium tin oxide coated substrate for detecting microRNA‐155 based on EC‐SERS. Application of an optimum potential of +0.2 V results in extraordinary amplification (≈7 times) of methylene blue (reporter) SERS signal compared to the normal SERS signal. As a result, a highly sensitive detection of 60 × 10−18 m microRNA‐155 in 1 h in serum based on monoconjugated AuNP/RNA is achieved. Thus, the monofunctionalization of RNA onto nanoparticle can provide a new methodology for biosensor construction and diverse RNA nanotechnology development.
Sustainable design of geothermal energy systems for electric power generation using life cycle optimization
Authors: Tian Xueyu , Meyer Taylor , Lee Hannah , You Fengqi 
Published: December 2019

AbstractThis article addresses the sustainable design of organic Rankine cycle‐based geothermal binary power systems under economic and environmental criteria. A novel superstructure with multiple heat source temperatures, working fluids, and heat rejection systems is proposed. Based on the superstructure, a life cycle optimization model is formulated as a mixed‐integer nonlinear fractional program (MINFP) to determine the optimal design. The nonconvex MINFP is efficiently solved by a tailored global optimization algorithm. Two case studies are considered to demonstrate the proposed modeling framework and solution algorithm. One case is based on a geothermal energy system located in California, and the other one is in New York (NY) State. The results show that the geothermal energy system in California is much more economically competitive than that in NY State. The difference in life cycle environmental impacts is less pronounced because the environmental impacts are less sensitive to geological conditions than the capital investments.
