Authors: Ţilea Ioan , Varga Andreea , Voidăzan Septimiu , Huţanu Adina 
Published: August 2018

Abstract

Background: Twenty-four hours dynamic blood pressure (BP) behaviour displays dipper profile defined as nocturnal systolic BP (SBP) reduction>10% compared to daytime. Non-dipper profile, nocturnal absence of SBP fall, associates an increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated the concomitant association of inflammatory bio-markers - high-sensitivity- C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), Human Chitinase3-like1 (YKL-40) and autonomic nervous system (total brain-derived neurotrophic factor, BDNF) with respect to non-dipping blood pressure status.

Material and method: Using 24h automatic BP measurements, 80 known hypertensive patients were divided into two groups: dipper group included fifty-one dipper patients (age 55.6 ±13.5 years) and non-dipper group consisted of 29 non-dipper subjects (62.07±12.03 years). Serum levels of hs-CRP were evaluated with enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. Plasma levels of YKL-40 were measured by commercial sandwich ELISA using microplate coated with a monoclonal antibody for CHI3L1. Plasma levels of total BDNF were determined using quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunoassay. Statistical analysis of obtained data was performed.

Results: In the non-dipper group, a significant positive association with age over 60 years, hs-CRP values above 1.90 mg/dl was observed along with increased mean values of YKL-40. Non-dipper status is independently and statistically significantly associated with elevated levels of hs-CRP (OR: 3.248, 95% CI: 1.022-10.317, p=0.046) in multivariate odds ratio analysis. No statistically significant positive association between a median total BDNF plasma level of 1430 pg/ml and the non-dipper hypertension profile was identified.

Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that patients over 60 years, in particular, have a higher probability to present a non-dipping pattern of hypertension. hs-CRP and YKL-40 values are more likely to increase in the non-dipping hypertensive patients, and hs-CRP values above 1.9 mg/dl can identify the presence of a non-dipper blood pressure profile.

Published: August 2018

Abstract
One of the most important elements of road construction is its substructure, which constitutes the base on which the next layers of road are placed. Mixture of crushed-stone aggregate is very often used as material for substructure. The most frequently used type of aggregate is magma rocks, due to its good physical-mechanical properties. However, it is not always available, so it is substituted by sandstone or even concrete rubble aggregates. The bearing ratio CBR is a parameter determining the suitability of a certain aggregate for road substructure. It is also one of the most popular quality tests of aggregate as it does not require complex apparatus. This paper analyses the results of physical and geotechnical tests with particular focus on CBR bearing ratio of crushed aggregates and their application as substructure for road construction. There has also been an attempt to find the correlation between CBR bearing ratio and other physical and geometrical properties.
Material damping ratio from free-vibration method

Published: August 2018

Abstract
One important aspect of soil dynamics is attenuation or energy loses. This inherent dynamic property is essential in the analysis of soil behavior subjected to a dynamic load. Energy absorption in soils leads to the definition of an equivalent viscous damping ratio (D). In resonant column testing there are commonly two different approaches in measuring material damping: during a steady-state vibration (SSV), when the specimen is vibrated at its first mode; and during free-vibration decay (FVD). The study reports results associated with the small to medium strain range material damping from FVD method, i.e. there is a cut off the constant vibration of the specimen at resonance and the specimen is allowed to free-vibration mode while the decay strain amplitude during free-vibration is calculated. The experiments were conducted on cohesive soils (sasiCl, Cl, clSa) from various test sites located in Warsaw, Poland. All the specimens were subjected to torsional mode of vibration at their first natural frequency, at different mean effective stress. The authors paid particular attention to the number of successive cycles after the free-vibration of the material is initiated. They examined various propositions from the literature and compare the received damping values using different number of cycles of vibration. The results showed that the most stable values of material damping ratio can be obtained by selecting each time a line of best fit on the authors’ choice of number of free-vibration cycles. However, the number of these cycles should not exceed 10.

Authors: Kacprzak Grzegorz , Bodus Seweryn 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
In this paper, the problem of a pile-raft foundation of a high-rise building located in Warsaw in typical soil and water conditions was presented. In order to describe the soil–foundation interaction, regarding load distribution, an analysis was made based on finite element method (FEM) with the use of the hardening soil with small strain soil model (HSS) in the ZSoil and Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis (ARSA) program. The article contains basic information about the pile-raft foundation, description of ground-water conditions together with the estimated parameters for the HSS model of soil applied in ZSoil calculation. It also shows a block diagram, as a kind of algorithm, presenting the proceedings in designing, modelling and numerical analysis between ZSoil and ARSA program. Own load distribution analysis in CPRF elements based on the numerical procedure enables the comparison with the measurements results of the load distribution carried out by Mandolini with associates in 2005.
Determination of the heating pile numerical model parameters based on the laboratory strength tests of clay at low temperatures

Published: August 2018

Abstract
Heating piles combine the function of the foundation and the heat source. They acquire heat from the ground through in built the installation. Inside the installation is non-freezing liquid at low temperature. In connection with the above, piles and the surrounding soil are exposed to significant temperature changes. As a result of these changes, the mechanical parameters of the soil and the behavior of the pile and soil contact surface were changed. This affects directly the load capacity of the heating piles. To describe this effect, laboratory tests were carried out to determine the thermal and mechanical parameters of the soil at low temperatures. The results from laboratory tests were applied as material parameters in the Z_Soil program. Based on the analysis using the finite element method, it was found that there is an negative effect on the friction on the surface of pile associated with the heat transfer between the soil and the pile.

Distance and Fuzzy Classifiers Alliance: The Solution to Off-line Arabic Signature Verification System for Forensic Science
Authors: Darwish Saad Mohamed , Noori Zainab H 
Published: August 2018

Signature of a person is one of the most popular and legally accepted behavioral biometrics that provides secure means for verification and personal identification in many applications such as financial, commercial and legal transactions. The objective of the signature verification system is to classify between genuine and forgery that is often associated with intrapersonal and interpersonal variability. Unlike other languages, Arabic has unique features; it contains diacritics, ligatures, and overlapping. Because of lacking any form of dynamic information during the Arabic signature writing process, it will be more difficult to obtain higher verification accuracy. This paper addresses the above difficulty by introducing a novel Off-Line Arabic signature verification algorithm. Different from state-of-the-art works that adopt one-level of verification or multiple classifiers based on statistical learning theory; this work employs two-level of fuzzy set related verification. The level one verification depends on finding the total difference between the features extracted from the test signature and the mean values of each corresponding features in the training signatures (owning the same signature). Whereas, the level two verification relies on the output of the fuzzy logic module depending on the membership functions that has been created from the signature features in the training dataset for a specific signer. It is concluded from the experimental results that the verification system performs well and has the ability to reduce both False Acceptance Rate (FAR) and False Rejection Rate (FRR).
Usage and Development of Contemporary Hanyu Pinyin
Authors: Tham Wai Houng 
Published: August 2018

Hanyu is a type of language that is based on the Beijing phonetic system and has four distinguishable tones. As a result to date, the tool designed for the pronunciation of this Chinese language whether it is the past National Phonetic Alphabet or the contemporary Hanyu Pinyin, there is always the need to add the tone marks in order to distinguish the four tones. However, to add a symbol for the sake of pronunciation spells inconvenience, because Hanyu Pinyin is essentially composed of Latin alphabet. Unless there is a special facility, no ordinary English computer keyboard can manage to add tone marks together with typing at the same time. Hence, the tone marks can only be chosen from the symbols set in the computer (if any) or added manually after all typing has been completed. It is not only time consuming but also involves a lot of work and many a time, the tone mark is either wrongly added or omitted. If there is a way to write Hanyu Pinyin without the use of tone marks and yet be able to differentiate the four tones, it will save the trouble of having to add tone marks for the correct pronunciation. This new method may also help in making typing more convenient.

Published: August 2018

Education policy should be supported by educational actors
(teachers) who are at the forefront. Efforts to improve the quality of
education need to be done gradually based on the strategic plan.
One of the efforts to improve teachers' professionalism is through
the supervision of teaching. The principal in fostering teacher
professionalism is by way of coaching, including (1) developing
teachers’ knowledge by suporting them to persue higher education,
(2) developing teaching strategy by helping them make learning
device, and (3) developing teacher code of ethics by providing role
model.

سياسة التربية لابد أن يؤيدها عامل التربية الذي يوجد في المقدمة وهو المدرس
الذي يمارس عملية التعليم. ومحاولة ترقية جودة التربية لابد أن تنفذ تدريجيا
معتمدا على الخطة الاستراتيجية. ومحاولة ترقية كفاءة المدرس تكون بوسيلة
إشراف التعليم. ويمكن أن يقوم مدير المدرسة بتنمية كفائة المدرس عن طريق
الإشراف، ويشتمل على: 1( إشراف كفاءة المدرس العلمية، وذلك عن طريق
) تشجيعه في ترقية مستوى دراسته بمواصلة دراسته إلى المستوى الأعلى. 2
إشراف استراتيجية التعليم، وذلك عن طريق مساعدته في إيجاد والوسائل
التعليمية . 3 ( إشراف في الناحية السلوكية للمدرس، وذلك أن يكون مدير
المدرسة قدوة لغيره.

Kebijakan pendidikan harus ditopang oleh pelaku pendidikan yang
berada di front terdepan yakni guru melalui interaksinya dalam
pendidikan. Upaya meningkatkan mutu pendidikan perlu dilakukan
secara bertahap dengan mengacu pada rencana strategis. Salah
satu upaya peningkatan profesional guru adalah melalui supervisi
pengajaran. Kepala sekolah dalam membina profesionalisme guru
adalah dengan cara pembinaan, meliputi; 1) Pembinaan keilmuan
guru, yaitu salah satunya dengan cara mersupport/mendorong
peningkatan kualifikasi guru untuk meningkatkan pendidikan ke
jenjang yang lebih tinggi 2) Pembinaan strategi pengajaran, yaitu
dengan cara membantu guru dalam pembuatan perangkat
