Published: April 2020

AbstractThe hydrologic behaviour of the Brahmani River basin (BRB) (39,633.90 km2), India was assessed for the base period (1970–1999) and future climate scenarios (2050) using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). Monthly streamflow data of 2000–2009 and 2010–2012 was used for calibration and validation, respectively, and performed satisfactorily with Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (ENS) of 0.52–0.55. The projected future climatic outcomes of the HadGEM2-ES model indicated that minimum temperature, maximum temperature, and precipitation may increase by 1.11–3.72 °C, 0.27–2.89 °C, and 16–263 mm, respectively, by 2050. The mean annual streamflow over the basin may increase by 20.86, 11.29, 4.45, and 37.94% under representative concentration pathway (RCP) 2.6, 4.5, 6.0, and 8.5, respectively, whereas the sediment yield is likely to increase by 23.34, 10.53, 2.45, and 27.62% under RCP 2.6, 4.5, 6.0, and 8.5, respectively, signifying RCP 8.5 to be the most adverse scenario for the BRB. Moreover, a ten-fold increase in environmental flow (defined as Q90) by the mid-century period is expected under the RCP 8.5 scenario. The vulnerable area assessment revealed that the increase in moderate and high erosion-prone regions will be more prevalent in the mid-century. The methodology developed herein could be successfully implemented for identification and prioritization of critical zones in worldwide river basins.

Published: April 2020

Abstract
In this study, the authors designed and applied a new irrigation method called capillary wicking irrigation (CWI), which used microfiber fabric as the source material of irrigation. At present, the effects of CWI on soil moisture, plant growth and surface temperature of a green roof with rain storage are not clear. An experiment was conducted on a green roof in Guangzhou. The authors set three transparent Plexiglas containers (A, B and C) with a side length of 1.5 m as an experimental frame on the roof. The authors put ‘steering wheel’ microfiber CWI in containers A and C, which were planted with Sedum lineare Thunb and Fittonia verschaffeltii, respectively. Container B with no CWI was planted with Sedum lineare Thunb. Results indicated that CWI could increase soil water content and make the variation of soil water content gentle in the containers on the roof. The green roof with rain storage had the function of heat preservation in winter and cooling effect in summer, especially for the green roof with CWI. Compared with container B, container A gave better plant growth, for ‘steering wheel’ microfiber CWI can basically provide automatic and suitable water supply for the plant. Therefore, CWI is an effective infiltration irrigation technique for roof greening.

Published: April 2020

Objective:
This study aims to investigate the use of 3D printing techniques for the fabrication of physical breast phantoms, suitable for conventional and phase contrast breast imaging. Such phantoms could provide essential information for the design, development and optimization of emerging X-ray imaging modalities.

Materials and Methods:
Physical phantoms were constructed using two 3D printing techniques: Fused Deposition Modeling and Stereolithography. Eight materials suitable for 3D printing, including thermoplastic filaments and photopolymer resins, were investigated for the optimal representation of breast tissues, based on their attenuation and refractive characteristics. The phantoms consisted of a 3D-printed mold, which was then manually filled with paraffin wax. Additionally, a 3D complex-patterned layer and details representing abnormalities were embedded in different depths. Images of the phantoms were obtained in attenuation and phase contrast mode. Experiments were conducted using an X-ray microfocus tube with Tungsten anode set to 55kVp, combined with a photon-counting detector. The distance between source and detector was 56.5cm. The images were acquired at different object-to-detector distances starting from 5cm up to 40cm in a free space propagation set-up.

Results and Conclusion:
Results show that among all combinations with paraffin used as an adipose substitute, phantoms created with the Stereolithography technique and resins (especially Flex) as glandular equivalent, were found to be more appropriate for both attenuation and phase contrast imaging. The edge enhancement effect was well observed in the experimental images acquired at 35cm object-to-detector distance, indicating the potential for improved feature visualization using this set-up in phase contrast compared to attenuation mode.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menginvestigasi kinerja teknologi integrasi Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Bed Reactor (UASB) dengan elektrokoagulasi-flotasi (ECF) sebagai unit pengolah air limbah industri karton box dalam berbagai kondisi operasi. Sebelum diaplikasikan, unit UASB diawali dengan proses aklimatisasi selama 7 hari menggunakan dua jenis substrat, yaitu gula dan pati. Operasional UASB secara kontinyu dilakukan pada berbagai OLR dan HRT konstan (24 jam). Air limbah terproses UASB kemudian dielektroflotasi menggunakan anoda alumunium (Al) dan besi (Fe). Optimalisasi proses ECF dikaji pada berbagai variabel pH dan waktu elektrolisis. Proses UASB dengan susbtrat pati menunjukkan efektivitas aklimatasi yang tinggi dibanding subtrat gula. Kondisi steady-state akan tercapai setelah 6 hari operasional dengan efisiensi penurunan COD 91% dan OLR 25 kg COD/m3 hari. Aplikasi UASB secara kontinyu telah mampu menurunkan COD 94% dengan waktu tinggal 24 jam. Proses ECF mampu menurunkan COD air limbah terolah UASB sekitar 70-81%. Kondisi optimum penurunan COD tercapai pada pH 7,5 untuk anoda Al dan pH 6 atau 9 untuk anoda Fe. Penambahan waktu elektrolisis di atas 10 menit sangat mempengaruhi efektivitas penurunan COD untuk anoda Fe sedangkan anoda Al tidak terjadi penurunan yang signifikan. Jumlah sludge yang dihasilkan oleh proses ECFsebanyak 4 kg/m3 untuk anoda Al dan 5 kg/m3 untuk anoda Fe. Biaya kebutuhan energi berkisar antara 4,5 hingga 18 kWh/m3dan konsumsi elektroda sebanyak 0,17 kg Al/m3 atau 0,515 kg Fe/m3. Integrasi UASB dan ECF berpotensi untuk diaplikasikan sebagai sistem pengolahan air limbah industri karton box yang efektif.

Published: April 2020

Abstract. Aim. The possibility of obtaining the regressive part of the elastic (regressiveprogressive) characteristic under axial loading in the initial period is studied by applying an elastic rod having an initial curvature under vertical compressive load. The objective of the study is to determine the static characteristics of such a rod without taking the resistance forces into account. Method. To solve the problem, the elliptic parameters method was used to make a comparison with a solution obtained using the finite element method in the ANSYS engineering simulation software. Results. A technique was developed for assessing the strain state and displacements of a flexible rod with initial curvature in order to study the regression-progressive characteristic of various elastic systems having initial curvature for their effective use in determining oscillations. Conclusion. The obtained technique can be used to determine the deformed state of an elastic flexible rod having initial curvature and displacement of the point of application of force. At the same time, by setting various initial parameters of the flexible rod in order to obtain a regressive-progressive characteristic, significant displacements can be obtained in the subcritical region when the axial load does not exceed the Euler force for this flexible rod

Published: April 2020

Background
The recent outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has become an international pandemic. So far, little is known about the role of an internet approach in COVID-19 participatory surveillance.

Objective
The aim of this study is to investigate whether an online survey can provide population-level information for observing prevalence trends during the early phase of an outbreak and identifying potential risk factors of COVID-19 infection.

Methods
A 10-item online questionnaire was developed according to medical guidelines and relevant publications. It was distributed between January 24 and February 17, 2020. The characteristics of respondents and temporal changes of various questionnaire-derived indicators were analyzed.

Results
A total of 18,161 questionnaires were returned, including 6.45% (n=1171) from Wuhan City. Geographical distributions of the respondents were consistent with the population per province (R2=0.61, P<.001). History of contact significantly decreased with time, both outside Wuhan City (R2=0.35, P=.002) and outside Hubei Province (R2=0.42, P<.001). The percentage of respondents reporting a fever peaked around February 8 (R2=0.57, P<.001) and increased with a history of contact in the areas outside Wuhan City (risk ratio 1.31, 95% CI 1.13-1.52, P<.001). Male sex, advanced age, and lung diseases were associated with a higher risk of fever in the general population with a history of contact.

Conclusions
This study shows the usefulness of an online questionnaire for the surveillance of outbreaks like COVID-19 by providing information about trends of the disease and aiding the identification of potential risk factors.

Published: April 2020

Background
Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is characterized by joint contractures present in at least two body areas. In addition to these contractures, individuals with AMC can have decreased muscle mass, leading to limitations in activities of daily living. Exercise has the potential to maintain or improve the range of motion and muscle strength. However, this type of intervention necessitates frequent follow ups that are currently difficult to provide for youths with AMC because they often live far from a specialized hospital. To overcome this distance challenge, telecommunication technologies can be used to deliver rehabilitation remotely, which is called telerehabilitation. The study protocol for one such type of rehabilitation will be presented in this paper.

Objective
This pilot study aims to (1) evaluate the feasibility of using telerehabilitation to provide a home exercise program for youths with AMC, and (2) assess the effectiveness of a home exercise program.

Methods
A total of 10 youths aged 8-21 years with AMC will be recruited. The intervention consists of a 12-week individualized home-based exercise program delivered remotely using telerehabilitation. At baseline, youths will complete the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents and the Pediatrics Outcomes Data Collection Instrument to assess pain, function, and level of physical activity. During the first telerehabilitation meeting, the rehabilitation therapists will measure range of motion using a virtual goniometer and assess the youth’s functional level. The therapists will then use the Goal Attainment Scale to set objectives and develop the individualized intervention. Follow ups will occur every 3 weeks to make sure exercises are performed safely and to progress the exercises when needed. At the end of the 12-week intervention, rehabilitation therapists will re-evaluate the youth using the same outcome measures as the initial evaluation. The youths will be asked to complete the same questionnaires, with the addition of questions about their satisfaction regarding the intervention. Nonparametric and descriptive statistics will be used to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness.

Results
Ethics approval was obtained in October 2018. Recruitment and data collection started in January 2019 and was completed in May 2020.

Conclusions
This pilot study will help us learn how a large-scale project may work in practice to improve outcomes in physical activity, pain, and function, and goal attainment among youths with AMC, thus informing a future clinical trial.
