A Sialolith and a Megalith: a Report of Two Cases
Authors: Asif Jawaad Ahmed , Ahmad Paras , Noorani Tahir Yusuf 
Published: January 2020

Sialolithiasis is considered as one of the most frequently encountered diseases of the salivary glands. The most susceptible site is the submandibular gland and its duct. However, megaliths have been sparsely reported in the literature. This article portrays management of a sialolith and a megalith in a 26-year-old and a 59-year-old male patient, respectively. The sialolith in the first case case was 4 mm long, whereas the second case demonstrated a megalith measuring 46 mm at its greatest size. Follow-up revealed normal functioning and a painless gland in the first case, while the second case showed no eventful complications. It is interesting to know that both patients remained relatively pain-free, despite having such longstanding sialolith/megaliths. After removal of the small sialolith, the gland regained its normal functioning swiftly, whereas in the case of the megalith, the gland removal was mandatory because such a longstanding megalith led to irreversible functional injury to the gland. CPD/Clinical Relevance: A giant sialolith can be easily misdiagnosed as a submandibular infection or neoplasm, especially when the patient presents with a longstanding pain-free swelling. Hence, early and appropriate referral and investigation is necessary for early diagnosis and treatment.
Case report of a geminated premolar and hypodontia
Authors: Sinnott Paula , Sah Sunil , Barker Chris 
Published: January 2020

This case report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a non-syndromic unilateral geminated second premolar complicated by hypodontia of three second premolars. Gemination is defined as a developmental disturbance of the shape of teeth and is usually recognized as a partial cleavage of a single tooth germ resulting in one root and one pulp space with two partially or totally separated crowns. Hypodontia is defined as the developmental absence of one or more teeth, excluding the third molars. Geminations of maxillary second premolars are rarely reported. These dental anomalies can cause local malocclusion manifesting as crowding or spacing. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Diagnosis of dental anomalies such as gemination can be difficult. This paper discusses the diagnosis and management of one such case which involved CBCT.

Authors: Manfio Vanessa 
Published: January 2020

As paisagens são formadas a partir da relação homem e natureza, sendo uma forma visível das formas espaciais. As paisagens podem ser de diversos tipos, entre elas estão às paisagens vitícolas, que ganham, cada vez mais, destaque mundialmente, devido a importância e expansão da vitivinicultura. A produção de vinhos cria paisagens singulares e proporciona a implantação do enoturismo. No Douro, região portuguesa, a união entre vinho, paisagem e turismo é uma marca regional. Dessa forma, o presente estudo buscou discutir sobre estes três elementos presentes no Douro Vinhateiro, analisando a paisagem, as potencialidades e entraves do turismo vinícola. Para isto, foi utilizada a pesquisa bibliográfica e a visita ao espaço do Douro. Pretende-se com este trabalho contribuir para os estudos sobre a vitivinicultura do Douro, trazendo um novo olhar sobre a paisagem e o turismo regional.
Open Access publication workflow for academic books
Authors: Schrader Antonia , Grossmann Alexander , Reiche Michael , Böhm David 
Published: January 2020

A draft (final version) of an media-neutral as well as both cost-effective and personnel-efficient publications workflow for Open Access (OA) monograph publishing at university presses is presented. The workflow has been developed as a result of the research project
Open-Access-Hochschulverlagat the Leipzig University of Applied Sciences, Germany. The aim of the project is to develop a sustainable and adoptable workflow to enable universities to publish their publications as OA and printed books simultaneously in a state-of-the-art way and without any restrictions regarding the license, the variety of formats, print run etc.
Up to now, we have defined 17 process groupswith up to 9processes,which a university press has to consider when publishing OA books state-of-the-art. These processes have been shown on the poster (it is the final version of the project, two preliminary versionswerealready published in April and June 2019).
The arrangement and the arrows between the processes indicate in which order the processes should be ideally organised by the university presses. Since any university may adapt that workflow individually, it includes several possible ways by which an OA book can be published (see process group
Kaor
Qe at the poster). The visualisation of the publication workflow represents only a part of the results of our research project. In addition detailed descriptions for each process have been created, which explain a certain process in depth, e.g. who is responsible for it, what time it takes and what it may cost to complete the process. These detailed descriptions will be published elsewhere.

Authors: Fakhrunnas Faaza , Imron Mochamad Ali 
Published: January 2020

Islamic Rural Bank must deal with internal and external risks which will affect to the performance of the bank. This paper aims to assess the internal and external risks that influence to the bank performance. By adopting panel data analysis, the paper analyzes 21 biggest Islamic rural bank which as a representative of 21 provinces around Indonesia during 2013-2017 which result 420 observation period. Furthermore, Return on Asset (ROA) are utilized as dependent variable which represents Islamic rural bank’s performance. As independent variables, Non-Performing Financing (NPF) and Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) are applied as internal risk in Islamic rural bank. To analyze external risk, regional macroeconomic factors, Regional Economic Growth (REG) and Regional Inflation (RInf) are employed then Total Asset of Islamic rural bank (Size) is also used as complementary variable. Based on the analysis, this study finds that SRB has robust risk management through internal and external risk. However, REG has significant ROA that explains the performance of Islamic rural bank will depend on regional economic growth in each province.

Caracterización de las tramas urbanas de la ciudad de Manizales, Colombia (1849-2017)
Authors: Giraldo-Ospina Tania , Vásquez-Varela Luis Ricardo 
Published: January 2020

Resumen
Las investigaciones sobre la evolución morfológica de las ciudades colombianas se concentran en ciudades fundadas durante la época colonial española. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue caracterizar las formas urbanas y su relación con los espacios públicos, a partir de la topografía, la transformación ambiental, los procesos de gestión urbana y los desarrollos urbanísticos entre 1849 y 2017. Mediante el uso de un sistema de información geográfica (SIG), se hizo el análisis de superposición de capas, así como el mapa de pendientes y la caracterización de laderas. Se seleccionaron 24 barrios de 114. Como resultado se identificaron 8 tipologías de tramas urbanas, diferenciadas en 5 fases de crecimiento urbano. La trama de damero y los grandes movimientos de tierra se dejaron de emplear desde mediados del siglo XX. Las tramas posteriores tratan de adaptarse a las laderas con menos modificación del terreno, pero sin reducir el riesgo geotécnico. En cuanto al espacio público, muchas de las zonas verdes son laderas con espacios residuales que no cuentan con diseño de espacio público y no permiten el uso recreativo, al contrario de áreas localizadas en topografías planas, que favorecen el uso recreativo y sin tratamientos geotécnicos.

Abstract
Research on the morphological evolution of Colombian cities has focused on cities established in the Spanish colonial era. This article addresses the characterization of urban forms in Manizales. The authors use a geographic information system to obtain a slope map and the slope characterization with layer overlay analysis. Twenty-four out of the 114 neighborhoods of the city were selected, identifying eight typologies of urban networks throughout five phases of urban growth. The checkerboard network and its significant earthwork were discontinued since the mid-twentieth century. The subsequent urban networks try to adapt to the slopes with less modification of the terrain but without a reduction of the geotechnical risk. This interdisciplinary research becomes relevant for urban management insofar as no studies were found that integrate urban networks with slope characterization.

Marcin Wlazło, The economics of disability and the dis-course of eliminating inequalities and providing equal opportunities. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 25, Poznań 2019. Pp. 33-53. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.25.02
Disability results in certain economic consequences, which are analysed mainly because of the generation of cost. The economic situation of people with disabilities and their families is usually associated with negative effects of neoliberalism, or causing and strengthening social inequality and excluding people unattractive on the market. In this context, the relationship between technological progress, economic growth and diagnostic and therapeutic services are also analysed. The article presents various aspects of the economic discourse focused on disability. The analysis is based on examples that consolidate the traditional image of disability as a factor affecting low economic status, through a description of the market of services and goods for people with disabilities, to examples of economic success achieved by people with disabilities.

Edyta Nieduziak, Towards a radical life. The social and aesthetic themes in Helen Keller’s activity in defence of humanity. Interdisciplinary Contexts of Special Pedagogy, no. 25, Poznań 2019. Pp. 229-254. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 2300-391X. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14746/ikps.2019.25.10
The article is an attempt to describe three biographical motifs of H. Keller, referring to aesthetic experiences (R. Ingarden) caused by various experiences: tactile in contact with sculpture, haptic in contact with music, and literary. The starting point to consider, however, is the category of humanity in the sense of M.S. Archer. The reflexivity characteristic of humanity, combined with the aesthetic experience, makes the themes describe the non-aesthetic experiences of H. Keller. In the analysis, the author used H. Keller’s correspondence, her works, biographical sources, photographs and video recordings.
Evolutionary optimization of sliding contact positions in powered floor systems for mobile robots
Authors: Medvet Eric , Seriani Stefano , Bartoli Alberto , Gallina Paolo 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Mobile robotics is a rapidly expanding technology due to its potential for increased safety and lower costs. In many applications, power is supplied to the robot through sliding contacts and a powered floor. Deciding the positions of the contacts on the robot is a difficult task: for any position/orientation of the robot, at least one contact has to touch a positive strip and at least one a negative strip. In this work, we tackle the problem using Differential Evolution (DE). We formally define problem-specific constraints and objectives and then describe how to use DE for evolving contact positions that satisfy those constraints and maximize those objectives. We validate experimentally our proposal by applying it to three real robots and by studying the impact of the main problem parameters on the effectiveness of the evolved designs for the sliding contacts.
Applications of nanomaterials in corrosion protection coatings and inhibitors
Authors: Farag Ahmed A. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Various methodologies are practically used to control corrosion. Coatings are the most widely used to protect metals against corrosion. However, due to the weak resistance of polymer coating against the penetration of corrosive solution to the metal/coating interface, the long-term corrosion resistance of the polymer coating is reduced gradually. Recently, nanoparticles have been added to coatings to improve their chemical, mechanical and optical properties. Nanocoatings either have constituents in the nanoscale or are made out of layers that are under 100 nm. Nanocoatings are used effectively to lessen the impact of a corrosive environment due to its various preferences, such as surface hardness, adhesive quality, long haul and, additionally, high-temperature corrosion opposition, and to improve its tribological properties, and so forth. Moreover, nanocoatings can be utilized in more slender and smoother thickness, which permits adaptability in equipment design and lower upkeep and working expenses. This review covers applications related to the management of metal corrosion, including the use of nanomaterials to produce high-performance corrosion inhibitors and corrosion-resistant coatings.
Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Shell and Helical Coil Heat Exchanger Using non-Newtonian Nanofluids
Authors: Naik B. Anil Kumar , Vinod A. Venu 
Published: January 2020

AbstractNanofluids have gained much attention due to excellent thermal properties. In this study, natural convection heat transfer behavior of three different types of non-Newtonian nanofluids in a shell and helical coil heat exchanger has been investigated experimentally under unsteady state conditions. Nanofluids were prepared by dispersion of Al2O3, Fe2O3 and CuO nanoparticles in an aqueous solution of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) (base fluid). Nanofluids of different concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 wt%) were prepared by dispersing Al2O3, Fe2O3 and CuO nanoparticles in base fluid using probe sonication process. In the present study, the effect of shell-side nanofluid concentration, tube-side fluid (heating medium) temperature and flow rate parameters on heat transfer has been investigated.Results indicated that the addition of nanofluid has intensified heat transfer as indicated by the higher temperature of nanofluid when compared to base fluid. Out of the three materials used in the study, CuO nanofluid attained the highest temperature because of its higher thermal conductivity. Heat transfer rate decreased with time continuously for all the experimental conditions. Enhancement in heat transfer initially was higher compared to later times. At longer time the enhancement is less due to the lower buoyancy forces prevailing due to lower driving force. A maximum enhancement in heat transfer rate of 29.5 % has been obtained initially. The effect of nanofluid concentration on heat transfer rate with time exhibited different behavior compared to the effect of inlet temperature and flow rate.
Design of VRFT Based Feedback-feedforward Controllers for Enhancing Disturbance Rejection on Non-minimum Phase Systems
Authors: Chiluka Suresh Kumar , Seshagiri Rao A. , Seepana Murali Mohan , Uday Bhaskar Babu G. 
Published: January 2020

AbstractIn this work, Virtual Reference Feedback Tuning (VRFT) based feedback-feedforward controllers are designed for non-minimum phase systems to enhance the disturbance rejection. In model based design methods the feedforward controller is inverse of the plant model reduces the controller performance in the presence of uncertainties. The novelty of the work lies in to design VRFT based controllers independently for the feedforward structure, which decouples set point tracking and disturbance rejection. The optimal filter selection and algorithms to design the controllers were proposed with non-measurable disturbance signal using open loop experimental data. These controllers are applied to discrete time non-minimum phase Flexible Transmission System (FTS) with no load, half load and full load conditions. The simulation study on FTS with feedback and feedback plus feedforward structures evaluates the effectiveness of proposed controllers. The performance indices like Integral Absolute Error (IAE), Integral Square Error (ISE), Total Variance (TV), VRFT Objective Function (JVR) and Fragility Index (FI) are used to compare the controller’s performance. The simulation results indicate that proposed feedback plus feedforward controller is superior to feedback controller.

Authors: Manczarski Piotr , Lelicińska-Serafin Krystyna , Rolewicz-Kalińska Anna 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
The objective of the study is research on a biofilter existing at a mechanical-biological waste treatment plant in Radom. The paper presents results of research on the filling of the analysed biofilter (moisture, organic matter content, nutrient content, pH, grain size composition, and equivalent diameter), process gases (temperature, humidity and pH, concentrations of the main pollutants - ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, volatile organic compounds, acetic acid, ethanol) and operational parameters (flow rate, height of the biofilter layer, surface load, gas residence time in the filter bed). Irregularities were observed related to biofiltration efficiency, particularly resulting from improperly selected filling material and improper biofilter operation. The technological research permitted the identification of problems and determination of the requirement of performing necessary operational changes. Further works will involve the design, manufacture, and installation of an integrated biofilter with two-stage gas purification process (a classic biofilter and a semi-permeable membrane).
Approach to Precisely Model an Underwater Electric Dipole Source with TSS-FDTD
Authors: Zhang Shitian , Zheng Kuisong , Tu Xiaoyun , Yang Mingyue 
Published: January 2020

AbstractDue to the fields in the near-field area of an electric dipole source which is sharply and rapidly varying with distance, a novel approach to introduce an underwater low-frequency excited source is proposed in this paper. The approach is built up to combine the theoretical solution for an electric dipole in a conductive medium with the total-field scattered-field boundary to reduce the error in modeling the source. The spatial distributions of the magnetic field amplitude at a distance of 1 km above the sea surface are discussed. The numerical results verified the accuracy and validity of the approach by comparing with the results of the Sommerfeld numerical integration method.
Intertextuality and Digital Humanities
Authors: Schubert Charlotte 
Published: January 2020

AbstractProceeding from the debate on intertextuality, some considerations are presented here for Literary and Historical Studies that suggest a theory-driven approach applying algorithm-based procedures. It will be shown that methodical tensions between qualitative and quantitative approaches can be solved simultaneously in this way. On this basis, the approach combines intertextuality theory with an algorithm-based procedure (here a search based on Word Mover’s Distance).
The effect of nano-SiO2 on concrete properties: a review
Authors: Zhuang Chenglong , Chen Yu 
Published: January 2020

AbstractIn recent years, the addition of nanometer materials to concrete materials has attracted a group of increasing number of scholars’ research interests, and nano-SiO2is one of the research hotspots. In this paper, we briefly introduce the influence of nano-SiO2on setting time, slump, shrinkage, durability and mechanical properties of concrete. In addition, this review also includes the microstructure measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the content of various hydration products obtained by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The result shows that the setting time of nano-SiO2concrete is shortened, the slump is reduced and the shrinkage is improved owing to the high activity and nucleation of nano-SiO2. The improvement effect of nano-SiO2on concrete is remarkable, especially in the aspect of enhancing the durability of concrete. It should be noted that nano-SiO2shows limited improvement in the mechanical properties of concrete. In the end, this literature summary explains the macro performance of nano-silica modified concrete through microstructure.
