"Más que un medio de locomoción”: estética y ética del avión en la literatura moderna
Authors: Nitsch Wolfram 
Published: August 2021

Desde 1909, cuando el aviador francés Blériot logró cruzar el Canal de la Mancha, el avión no ha dejado de fascinar a los escritores. Dos aspectos del vehí­culo recién inventado despertaron un interés particular en la historia literaria de la aviación. Si para varios poetas y novelistas modernos el avión es “más que un medio de locomoción”, como observa el poeta piloto Saint-Exupéry, lo es a la vez por razones éticas y estéticas. Por un lado, se celebra el aero ­plano como un medio de acción que posibilita transgredir los lí­mites del mundo y de sí­ mismo; por otro, se presenta como un medio de percepción que permite ver la tierra y el cielo de una manera distinta. El presente artí­culo trata de aclarar estos dos ví­nculos entre la aeronáutica y la literatura mediante algunos textos publicados antes y después de los bombardeos de la segunda guerra mundial, en particular La vuelta a Europa en avión (1929) de Manuel Chaves Nogales, Terre des hommes (1939) de Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Estrella distante (1996) de Roberto Bolaño y Le Jardin des Plantes (1998) de Claude Simon.

Abstract

Background and Purpose
There are few studies addressing the rate of application of bone allograft and its use; hence, the present study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of using bone allograft and autograft in patients with long bone fracture.

Method
In this clinical trial study, all patients who underwent bone graft surgery with the diagnosed long bone fractures of upper and lower limbs at Shahid Beheshti Hospital were included in the research. Patients were divided into two groups, autograft and allograft, according to type of treatment. They were evaluated for their union, complications, and range of motion.

Results
In the present study, 124 people were studied. Among them, 100 patients were eligible and included in the study. The allograft and autograft groups did not have any statistical significant differences in terms of age, sex, location, causes of fracture, and surgical methods. Results of the present research on patients in terms of fracture site indicated that there was no significant relationship between the two groups in rate of union (P = 0.18). Allograft and autograft had no difference in terms of complications. Studied range of motion indicated that patients were not different in terms of their ranges of motion.

Conclusion
Based on findings of the present study, allograft could be a suitable substitute for the autograft. The two graft methods were similar in terms of complications, union, and ranges of motion.
Role of the Histological Variant for the Prognosis and Course of the Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
Authors: Yordanov M. , Ananiev J. , Robeva R. 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
The focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is characterized by a morphological heterogeneity, most likely reflecting different pathogenetic mechanisms. The Colombian classification distinguishes five morphological types – non-specific (not otherwise specified or classical), perihilar, cellular, a tubular pole (tip) one and a collapsing one. Eighty-one (81) patients were studied. Their distribution according to the histological variant showed the highest frequency of the non-specific (classical) variant – 70.4%, followed by the perihilar variant – 27.20%, the cellular variant – 1.2% and the collapsing variant – 1.2%. No patients with tip lesions were identified. There were significant differences in the creatinine levels and the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) at the beginning and at the end of the follow-up between patients with the perihilar and the non-specific variants. Patients with the perihilar variant had a better treatment response with a high percentage of patients achieving complete remission – 59.1%. Patients with the non-specific variant had a high chance of treatment failure – 26.3% had no effect from treatment. The results of the study give grounds to assume that the histological variant affects the clinical picture, course and therapeutic response in patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. It could be used as a prognostic marker of disease behavior and guide the clinician in treatment decisions.

Published: August 2021

Abstract

Background
The antipsychotic olanzapine is a first-line drug in the treatment of schizophrenia while blonanserin is indicated in resistant cases of schizophrenia when the first line antipsychotics have failed. There are very limited studies available world-wide as well as in India that compare blonanserin with other antipsychotics in the setting of schizophrenia.

Aims
To study the efficacy, safety and tolerability of olanzapine and blonanserin in Schizophrenia. Settings and Design: The study was a prospective, observational, parallel group study done on schizophrenia patients aged between 18-50 years of both sexes at an outpatient Department of Psychiatry, in a tertiary medical college. The study was conducted from February 2015 to October 2016, with follow ups at weeks 4, 8 and 12.

Materials and Methods
The efficacy parameters were measured by the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) and the Clinical Global Impression (CGI) rating. The safety parameters included the vital signs, haematological profile, lipid profile, blood sugar monitoring. Adverse drug reactions and compliance to therapy was observed through-out the study period. Appropriate statistical tests were applied to detect any significant within and between group differences using Microsoft Excel 2007 and SPSS version 17.

Results
There was significant decrease in the mean total score on the BPRS and CGI-S in the blonanserin arm at the 2nd and last follow up visit (p value < 0.001). Compliance was good in both groups (≤ 20% missed pills). Overall, 77 treatment-emergent adverse events were present from 56 patients. Twenty three subjects of the blonanserin arm and 33 subjects in the olanzapine arm at least experienced one adverse event (p = 0.006), metabolic adverse effects were more common with olanzapine, whereas insomnia, headache and somnolence were more often seen with blonanserin.

Conclusions
In the present study, blonanserin provided significantly better outcomes than olanzapine with respect to BPRS, CGI-S scores.

Authors: Ghinea Cristina , Paduret Sergiu 
Published: August 2021

Abstract
The separation of four waste plastic samples - Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), Polycarbonates (PC), and Polyamides (PA) resulting from electrical products in three bicomponent plastic mixtures (PVC-ABS, PVC – PA, and PVC - PC) was performed by using four different flotation solutions (5%, 10%, 20%, and 30% concentration) of CaCl2. Furthermore, the waste plastic samples were analyzed in terms of density, specific volume, particle size, initial water content, and water absorption capacity, while the flotation solutions were analyzed in terms of pH, density, electrical conductivity, and refractive index. Results showed that from the analyzed waste plastic samples, the PVC sample has the highest density (1.3823 g/cm3), followed by PC (1.2034 g/cm3) and PA (1.0607 g/cm3), while the ABS (0.9723 g/cm3) presented the lowest value. The highest recovery rate was obtained for the PVC samples (98.10 % - 99.75 %) when it was mixed with ABS, whereas the highest purity was measured for ABS samples (98.29 % - 99.76%) in the case of the same mixture.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
After a dry spring, in June 2020 several intense storms occurred at the headwaters of the small basins of the Muráň and Zdychava rivers in the territory of the Muránska planina National Park (Slaná River basin, Slovakia). In the first part of the study– according to a hydrological survey made by the authors after the flash flood – the peak discharge was reconstructed at several Muráň River profiles. Next, the flash flood waves were reconstructed by the rainfall-runoff model NLC (non-linear cascade). The results of modelling based on field investigations show that, despite the extreme precipitation event (108 mm per 1 hour at the precipitation gauging station at Predná Hora), the peak flow rates were not exceptional in selected profiles on the Muráň River. The fact that extreme precipitation above 120 mm fell in a relatively very small area at the division of the Muráň and Zdychava rivers’ water contributed to this result. In the second part, a catastrophic 1000-year rainfall event scenario on the Zdychava River basin has been prepared. In analysing time series and identifying T-year daily rainfall depths, daily data was used from six precipitation stations in the vicinity of Muránska planina. Then, the 1000-year discharge of the Zdychava at Revúca was simulated by the calibrated NLC model. In such an extreme precipitation scenario, the peak flow rate would reach 105.15 m3 s−1, i.e. with a specific runoff of 1.78 m3 s−1 km–2. The total runoff in an 18-hour period would be 1.119 million m3, representing 21.11% of the rainfall (5.301 million m3).

Abstract
The permeable pavement is a compensatory drainage technique for urban waters that aims to control runoff and to ensure ideal hydrological conditions. This work had as main objectives to evaluate the infiltration capacity of a permeable pavement (PP) at real scale, through analytical and numerical modeling. It relies on water infiltration experiments and related modeling for the hydrodynamic characterization of the coating layer (saturated hydraulic conductivity, Ks
, and sorptivity, S). A large panel of analytical and numerical models was considered, and several estimates were obtained. Then, the criteria for the evaluation of the maintenance requirement of the permeable pavements were computed for all the Ks
-estimates considering the NCRS standards (assessment of permeability levels). The results indicated nice fits and accurate estimates for both the saturated hydraulic conductivity and the sorptivity. However, the Ks
-estimates depended on the considered model and led to contrasting results in terms of classification. For 8 of the 9 models, the value of the Ks
-estimate leads to the classification of “Group A” of the NCRS soil classification, meaning a very permeable material. In contrasts, the last method (numerical inverse modeling) classified the permeable pavement as “Group D”, i.e., soils with low permeability. Those results show the importance of the selection of characterization methods regarding the assessment of the hydrological classification of permeable pavements.
Power Module Temperature in Simulation of Robotic Manufacturing Application

Published: August 2021

Abstract
The paper presents a lifetime consumption estimation model of 6 degrees of freedom industrial robot arm. The primary goal of the research is to provide estimated lifetime data of semiconductor power modules of robot axis power supply circuit, providing new opportunities for cost-saving, predictive maintenance, with highly customized input for different manufacturing applications. Evaluation of thermal stress and estimation of isolated gate bipolar transistor current are completed, based on MATLAB model translating KUKA robot program code to electrical energy consumption, which is a novel approach. Energy losses are considered in the model to provide accuracy of the inverter load current. The simulation results prove that lifetime consumption depends on a robot application type, for more agile movement programs with large power amplitudes, such as handling, the degradation in power modules is significant compared to slower applications, such as gluing or welding. Various options for future development are suggested and considered in the paper.

Abstract
Feeding young animals is a very important stage during their growing-up period, but in order to provide them with essential nutrients, they are fed with liquid feeds, whole milk substitute in particular (WMS). The technique for reconstituting WMS consists of dissolving it in water followed by mixing, but it is significant to follow the cooking recipe strictly, so it is necessary to develop a system with a feeding (dosing) device that will make it possible to solve this problem. Theoretical and experimental studies of the feeding device have been conducted in order to optimize the technological process of mixing liquid feed. Theoretically, the quality of determining the mixture during dosing was established for the purpose of further research. The influence of the design and technological parameters of the feeding device was experimentally studied, and its efficiency was evaluated. It was found that as the inclination angle α increases from 67,50 to 700, the rotation speed n being from 850 to 1500 min−1, the maximum probability of staying in the tolerance field ΔP=96% is reached, and feed discharge Q ranges from 540 to 660 kg h−1. The research makes it possible to develop a feeding device at the design stage, meeting the requirements of the recipe, having high discharge rates and the lowest energy consumption.

Published: August 2021

Abstract
Birch plywood has a wide range of applications for interior and exterior use. The demand for plywood with improved fire protection properties and good visual appearance is increasing year by year. The impregnation at high pressure of the whole plywood panels is one of the options to achieve it. The aim of this study was to develop good visual looking birch plywood product for interior design purposes as well evaluate different influencing factors to reaction to fire properties of fire-retardant treated birch plywood. This study consists of three parts. At the first stage, high pressure industrially impregnated plywood properties were studied by two influencing factors – distribution of fire retardant in plywood panel plane and sanding process influence on reaction to fire performance of product. At the second stage, seven different industrial finishing systems were selected for covering high-pressure impregnated birch plywood and their effect on fire reaction performance was studied. In addition, two surface coating systems were studied on standard birch plywood substrate. At the third stage, intumescent coating consumption effect on reaction to fire performance was studied. The reaction to fire performance of birch plywood was evaluated by performing a flammability test using the Single Burning Item test according to EN 13823:2010. It was found that high pressure impregnation of plywood cannot ensure even saturation of fire retardant throughout the sheet, which significantly affects the fire performance of product. The impact of different finishing materials to reaction to fire performance has been described by the results of this research.
