Evaluation of the Suitability of the Strain-Gauge Method for Measuring Deformations during the Fatigue Tests of Aviation Composite Structures
Authors: Rośkowicz Marek , Leszczyński Piotr 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
The paper discusses the results of selected fatigue tests of a motor glider’s insulated spar structure. The results of the experimental tests were used to assess the potential of the strain-gauge method for diagnosing the spar damage involving the unbolting of one of metal fittings in the spar pin. The usefulness of the deformation measurement method in the composite structure diagnostic process was confirmed, while simultaneously drawing attention to the need for conducting a process optimizing the number of sensors and their distribution on a tested object, in the context of the sensitivity of diagnostic signals received.
Design and Strength Analysis of Curved-Root Concept for Compressor Rotor Blade in Gas Turbine
Authors: Wdowiński Wojciech , Szymczyk Elżbieta , Jachimowicz Jerzy , Moneta Grzegorz 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
The motivation of the article is fatigue and fretting issue of the compressor rotor blades and disks. These phenomena can be caused by high contact pressures leading to fretting occurring on contact faces in the lock (blade-disk connection, attachment of the blade to the disk). Additionally, geometrical notches and high cyclic loading can initiate cracks and lead to engine failures. The paper presents finite element static and modal analyses of the axial compressor 3rd rotor stage (disk and blades) of the K-15 turbine engine. The analyses were performed for the original trapezoidal/dovetail lock geometry and its two modifications (new lock concepts) to optimize the stress state of the disk-blade assembly. The cyclic symmetry formulation was used to reduce modelling and computational effort.

Published: August 2018

Abstract
Fullerenes and heteroatom doped fullerenes exhibit high potential as drug delivery agents in sensor technology and medical applications. We investigated, using density functional theory, the possible interaction sites and the nature of interaction, adsorption energy assessments, band gap energy evaluations, charge transfer analyses, and some diagnostic vibrational band assignments for valproic acid (VPA) and aluminum, silicon, and boron decorated fullerene systems. The present research shows that VPA has strong interaction with the doped fullerene cages particularly at its carbonyl edge. Therefore, these doped fullerenes can be suggested as possible drug delivery agents.

Abstract
In this article, ZnO thin-film deposition on a glass substrate was done using microwave induced oxygen plasma based CVD system. The prepared thin-films were tested in terms of crystallinity and optical properties by varying the microwave power. The effect of power variation on the morphology and size of final products was carefully investigated. The crystal structure, chemical composition and morphology of the final products were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). This technique confirmed the presence of hexagonal ZnO nanocrystals in all the thin-films. The minimum crystallite grain size as obtained from the XRD measurements was ~9.7 nm and the average diameter was ~18 nm.
An experimental study of the chipping process with focus on energy consumption and chipping angles
Authors: Nyström Jonas L. , Gradin Per A. , Thörnberg Benny 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
A series of chipping experiments were performed under both dynamic and quasi-static conditions in a laboratory wood chipper (dynamic) and in a MTS-servohydraulic testing machine (quasi-static). One aim with the experiments was to investigate the rate dependency of the energy consumption during chipping. Another aim was to try to determine the load per unit knife edge length required to initiate cutting. The experiments were carried out using different combinations of spout and edge angles. It was found that for large edge angles (keeping the spout angle constant at

30
°

30^\circ

) there was a slight rate dependency such that the energy consumption was larger at higher cutting rates which is quite in opposite of what is expected if wood is assumed to be a viscoelastic material. It was also found that to determine the force at initiation of cutting, is not a trivial task. Both Acoustic Emission monitoring and visual inspection was used to this end. The wood species used in this study was pine (Pinus silvestris).
Time-Dependency in Producers’ Price Adjustments: Evidence from Micro Panel Data
Authors: Nilsen Øivind A. , Pettersen Per Marius , Bratlie Joakim 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
Existing micro evidence of firms’ price changes tends to show a downward sloping hazard rate – the longer the price of a product has remained the same, the less likely it is that the price will change. Using a panel of Norwegian plant- and product-specific prices, we also find a downward sloping hazard when applying a Kaplan–Meier model. After having controlled for both observed and unobserved characteristics, we find flat hazards with spikes in the first and twelfth months. This suggests time-dependent price-setting by at least some of the producers. The spike after 12 months might be explained by seasonal demand effects, but also by the pricing season effect related to information acquisition and processing, negotiation and signing of price contracts. The revealed price adjustment pattern is at odds with the predictions of the Calvo model, a central element in many dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models, as this assumes constant frequencies of price adjustments over time. Our empirical findings instead point to a modified Calvo model where firms in some periods experience lower menu costs. Finally, the empirical findings may have implications for the effectiveness of monetary policy interventions.
Motivation Modulates Brain Networks in Response to Faces Varying in Race and Status: A Multivariate Approach

Published: August 2018

AbstractPrevious behavioral and neuroimaging work indicates that individuals who are externally motivated to respond without racial prejudice tend not to spontaneously regulate their prejudice and prefer to focus on nonracial attributes when evaluating others. This fMRI multivariate analysis used partial least squares analysis to examine the distributed neural processing of race and a relevant but ostensibly nonracial attribute (i.e., socioeconomic status) as a function of the perceiver’s external motivation. Sixty-one white male participants (Homo sapiens) privately formed impressions of black and white male faces ascribed with high or low status. Across all conditions, greater external motivation was associated with reduced coactivation of brain regions believed to support emotion regulation (rostral anterior cingulate cortex), introspection (middle cingulate), and social cognition (temporal pole, medial prefrontal cortex). The reduced involvement of this network irrespective of target race and status suggests that external motivation is related to the participant’s overall approach to impression formation in an interracial context. The findings highlight the importance of examining network coactivation in understanding the role of external motivation in impression formation, among other interracial social processes.
Confirming the presence of a fourth species of non-native house gecko of the genus Hemidactylus Oken, 1817 (Squamata, Gekkonidae) in Colombia
Authors: Vásquez-Restrepo Juan D. , Lapwong Yingyod 
Published: August 2018

The Indo-Pacific Gecko, Hemidactylus garnotii Duméril & Bibron, 1836, is a species of house gecko native to Southeast Asia and Pacific Islands. As with many of its congeners, this gecko species has been accidentally introduced to other parts of the world. In January 2018, several photographs of “H. frenatus” from Colombia posted in iNaturalist.org, were noticed to have some morphological features related to H. garnotii. This discrepancy led us to inspect museum specimens and to confirm the presence of H. garnotii for more than a decade in Colombia.

Relevance. The number of elderly patients with acute cholecystitis is constantly increasing, in spite of the success achieved in the diagnosis and treatment of this pathology. The possibilities for radical treatment of patients with high operational anesthesia risk are substantially limited.
The aim of the study was to conduct comparative analysis of the quality of life of patients after transcutaneous-transhepaticmicrocholecystostomy and traditional cholecystostomy with thermal mucoclasia of the gallbladder.
Materials and methods. The quality of life of 31 patients with high operational anesthesia risk following transcutaneous-transhepaticmicrocholecystostomy (TTMC) and traditional cholecystostomy with thermal mucoclasia of the gallbladder (TCTMG), was studied. All patients were divided into two groups: the first group consisted of 20 (64.5%) patients who underwent TTMC, the second one included 11 (35.5%) patients who underwent TCTMG. Quality of life of patients was studied with the help of the questionnaire using the SF-36 Health Status Survey 4 months after TTMC or TCTMG. Statistical processing of the results was carried out using the program Microsoft Office Excel -2013.
Results and its discussion. The physical component of health (physical functioning, role functioning due to physical condition, pain intensity, general health) was 64.25% higher in patients of Group II than in patients of Group I (p = 0.001), and the psychological Health component (mental health, role functioning due to emotional state, social functioning, vital activity) was also (68.05%) higher in Group II (p = 0.004).

Conclusions. The use of the method of thermal mucoclasia of the gallbladder in patients with high operational anesthesia risk allows to achieve higher quality indices compared to patients who underwent TTMC, since after demucotization of the gallbladder cavity it is obliterated due to hyperplasia of the connective tissue of the lamina propria or submucosa, thereby finally solving the problem of acute cholecystitis in this category of patients.

Relevance. The prevalence of cholelithiasis increases with age and reaches 25-30% in elderly and senile patients [1]. The "golden standard" of surgical intervention for acute cholecystitis, by right, is considered to be video-laparoscopic cholecystectomy, but with severe concomitant pathology, video-laparoscopic cholecystectomy is limited. Even with the "open" cholecystectomy in patients older than 60 years, lethality is 5-10 times higher than in young people [4]. In connection with this, an alternative method of treatment of OX in patients of older age groups was proposed - thermal mucoclasiа of the gallbladder.
Aim. To carry out complex analysis of the results of laboratory and ultrasound methods of clinical examination in elderly patients with acute cholecystitis (AC) depending on two main types of surgical treatment: video laparoscopic cholecystectomia or thermal mucoclasia of a gall bladder.
Materials and methods. The results of the red and white blood counts, the assessment of biochemical blood parameters, immune markers and the outcomes of ultrasound examination of the gall bladder before operation and after different periods following this treatment were analyzed in elderly patients who were admitted urgently to the surgical units of the Kursk city hospitals.
Results and its discussion. In patients who underwent traditional cholecystostomy with the thermal mucoclasia lower values of erythrocytes, hemoglobin and general protein levels were detected demonstrating the presence of anemia. In this group the secondary immunodeficiency with alterations of the T-cell immunity was noted. These changes are most probably related to aging since the average age of these patients was about 10 years more than in the VLHE group. Patients who were operated by VLHE were admitted to hospitals with more pronounced changes of biochemical blood parameters, i.e. with higher levels of bilirubin, ACT, ALT and amylase.
Conclusions. The results of the present study can be used for the choice of the surgical operation and for the pre-operatory treatment of elderly patients with acute cholecystitis.

Amaç: Gebelerin,
gestasyonel diabetes mellitus (GDM) taraması için
kullanılan 75g oral glukoz tolerans testini (OGTT) yaptırmasında etkili olan
faktörleri incelemeyi amaçladık.Gereç
ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya
Düzce Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi antenatal takip polikliniğine baş
vuran ve GDM taraması için 75 g OGTT yaptırmayı kabul
eden 129 ve GDM taraması için 75 g OGTT yaptırmayan 133 olmak üzere toplam 262
gebe dahil edildi. Gebelerin demografik özellikleri, eğitim düzeyleri ve gelir
seviyeleri araştırıldı.Bulgular: OGTT
yapılan grupta GDM sıklığı %7.9’du (n=10). OGTT
yaptıran grupta VKİ daha yüksekti ve gruplar arasındaki fark istatistiksel
olarak anlamlıydı (29.17 ± 5.67 vs. 26.93 ± 4.02; p= 0.003). Gruplar eğitim seviyeleri
açısından karşılaştırıldığında, OGTT yaptıran grupta yalnızca
okur-yazar olan gebelerin oranı daha yüksekti (8.5% vs. 0; p=0.004). OGTT
yaptırmayan grupta bunun en sık nedeni 57.8%
oranında testin bebeğe zarar vereceği endişesiydi (n=77), ikinci
sıklıkta bu testin özellikle görsel medyada yer alan bazı sağlık personelleri tarafından önerilmemesi geliyordu (30.8%,
n=41).

Sonuç: Son
yıllarda gebelerin GDM taraması için OGTT yaptırma oranları düşmektedir. Bunun
başlıca nedenleri arasında özellikle görsel medyada var olan bilgi kirliliği ve
gebelerin sağlık personeli tarafından yeterinde
bilgilendirilmemesi gösterilebilir. Bu nedenle sağlık bakımını sağlayan tüm
paydaşlar tarafından prekonsepsiyonel dönemden başlayarak gebelik esnasında
halkın yanlış bilgi edinmesinin önüne geçecek programlar ortaya koymalı ve bu konudaki bilgi kirliliğinin ortadan kaldırılmalıdır.
Penetapan Tersangka pada Peradilan Koneksitas dalam Perkara Tindak Pidana Korupsi
Authors: Mawarni Yusnita 
Published: August 2018

Corruption is a criminal act, not only committed by civilians, but also by military members. Members of the military utilize procedural law called connectivity, in which cases are examined through the mechanism of connectivity. Neglecting the mechanism of connectivity results in uncertain legal implementation. The arrangement of the existing connectivity mechanism within the legislation includes the establishment of a permanent team: public court officials and military court officials whose implementation is considered complicated. While one official’s handling of cases would be considered corrupt, they instead commit the act of splitsing (the separated settlement of the case). The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), as an institution, has the authority to control and coordinate corruption criminal cases. In the case of a criminal act of connectivity, related to corruption cases handled by KPK investigators and military investigators, although it may not be examined through the mechanism of connectivity, it is still valid because the determination of the suspect on the offender is based on sufficient initial evidence. Yet, this connectivity mechanism is necessary so that the examination of the case will be a set of intact connectivity, stated in the legislation that regulates the handling of the crime of connectivity in order to sustain justice for all parties.

A difícil aritmética do corpo e da linguagem: reflexões sobre o input e a aquisição de linguagem
Authors: Faria Núbia Rabelo Bakker 
Published: August 2018

From the point of view of reflection on Language Acquisition, the thesis that inspires this article brings to discussion the impossibility of searching for reconciliation between two natures differently conceived for body and language – the body, as a sensitive organism is in the domain of biology, whereas language, with its structures and categories, is in the realms of linguistics. In this case, to the area of language acquisition is left the ungrateful and fruitless task of operating the relationship between those two different natures. That task limits itself to the operations of addition or subtraction. In order to conduct such reflection, two theories were called into play: Chomsky’s, whose research in linguistics was responsible for the consolidation of the area of language acquisition and Skinner’s, which is the trigger for Chomsky’s option for the rationalist principles in search for an answer to the question of how a child masters the complex structures of a language disclosed by means of formalization applied to linguistics which signals the entrance of that author in the area of linguistics.

The analysis of methods of reception of longitudinal biases/profile of road important for carrying out of modelling of movement of the vehicle on the basis of geodetic charts, gaugings of roads by means of the geodetic equipment, use mobile laboratories is carried out, radar scanning of the earth, data read-out from the electronic control package of the car and the estimation of their accuracy is given. It is noticed that the listed modes are labour-consuming and Expenses and not always provide necessary accuracy. So in case of use of the popular data of radar scanning of the earth from companions the error can reach 30–50%. Though in the future in process of perfection of accuracy of sounding and availability of the information the given mode is represented to the most perspective.The method of registration of cross-sections/biases of the big sites of roads in the course of movement of the vehicle on the basis of microcontroller Arduino Due, the gauge of speedups and discharge angles MPU-6050 and data recording on a SD- card is offered, application of the combined processing of the information on the basis of the developed programs in language With in the microcontroller and in module S-Function Builder in package Matlab/Simulink is considered.By means of the offered methods registration of biases of road of difficult character by extent of 10 km is spent. And for the same road the method of use of a chart of radar scanning of the earth constructs a road cross-section. Comparison of results of methods of use of speedups and radar scanning of the earth is spent.Good coincidence of character of change of a cross-section of road and sredne-quadratic and maximum values of heights of a cross-section of the road, received on the offered methods (a toe-out of 7–20%) is revealed.
