Academic Voice Reimag(in)ed: Interest and Design in Artwork and Three Dimensional Artefacts
Authors: Archer Arlene 
Published: March 2018

AbstractAlthough ‘voice’ is a contested concept used in many different ways, it is often used to indicate degrees of authorial agency and, as such, is useful for exploring interest and design in artwork and three dimensional artefacts. This paper investigates the semiotic signifiers of voice in artwork, arguing that the notion of materiality is crucial for understanding voice in designed three dimensional artefacts. The methodological approach is multimodal social semiotics where meaning is seen to be made through the selection and configuration of modes in texts and through the interest of the sign-maker in a particular context. This position paper focuses on authorial engagement as realized through semiotic choices, and explores the relationship between creativity and constraints in sign-making. It also investigates ways in which voice is constructed intertextually through citation in artwork. It argues that in designed artefacts, citation takes the form of explicit or implicit negotiation with authoritative conventions, and it is also realised through sensory and connotative provenance. The overall aim is to find apt semiotic terms to talk about voice across modes, genres and domains. Identifying these semiotic tools and signifiers of voice may be useful in a number of domains, including the pedagogical where voice often instantiates the negotiation between students’ lifeworlds and the new ideas, contexts and genres they encounter.
Shelley’s Mask
Authors: Ward Ian 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
On the 16th August 1819, a crowd of around sixty thousand gathered outside Manchester to listen to the renowned radical Henry Hunt. When the crowd appeared to grow restless the authorities ordered in a regiment of Hussars. Eleven were killed, hundreds injured. The radical presses swiftly condemned the “Peterloo massacre.” So, away in Italy, did the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. The consequence of Shelley’s anger was one of the greatest poems of political protest in the English language. It was entitled The Mask of Anarchy. This article is about this poem. It asks why Shelley wrote it, what he wanted to say, and how he chose to say it.

In so doing, the contribution tries to answer some research questions: how are the constitutional systems of the UK and the US respectively portrayed in the two TV series? More generally, how can contemporary political dramas approach constitutional issues?
Turning Vanity Fair into The Cœlestial City: England’s Legal Narratives of the Body Politic from Bunyan to Thackeray
Authors: Nicolini Matteo 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
The article addresses the different narratives that characterize English constitutional history. It first examines the mainstream narrative, i. e., the retrospective reading of the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century constitutional events dispensed by jurists and politicians in an attempt to pack the Establishment Constitution. It then focuses on the alternative legal narratives about the Constitution elaborated during the Civil War and the Restoration. Among them, it ascertains John Bunyan’s impact on the Establishment Constitution. Bunyan was a member of the New Model Army, a radical, and a Puritan who ended up in prison. Despite this background, he exerted a strong influence on Victorian society and on Thackeray’s representation of the body politic. As a consequence, Bunyan entered the political discourse in the first half of the nineteenth century when politicians started to reform English representative institutions, and therefore became part of the Establishment Constitution.
Justice in Crisis? On the Popular Jurisprudence of Weimar Film
Authors: Howe Steven 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
This article explores how a selection of films produced in Germany during the period of the Weimar Republic represent and critique the criminal justice system. Its starting premise is that the cinema of the era emerges as an important site for the negotiation of the contemporary crisis of law and justice outside the parameters of official legal procedure and politics. Focusing on a set of key legal and ethical dilemmas surrounding particular paragraphs of the German Criminal Code (§ 218 on abortion, § 175 on homosexuality, § 51 on criminal responsibility attribution), the aim is to exemplify how certain representative films contain and disseminate a popular jurisprudence that both reflects and contributes to contemporary legal-political debate.
On the trail of grammaticalization in progress: hasel quebecome a compound relative pronoun in the history of Spanish prepositional relative clauses?
Authors: Arroyo José Luis Blas , Lahoz Javier Vellón 
Published: March 2018

AbstractIn this paper, we examine the grammatical status ofel quein Spanish prepositional relative clauses (el lugaren el quevivo) [the place where I live] from a variationist perspective of the theory of grammaticalization. At least from the nineteenth century onwards, several authors have defended the nature ofel queas a compound relative pronoun, even if these forms continue alternating today with others without the article [el lugaren quevivo], in contrast toel cual, a fully grammaticalized relative since the late fifteenth century.Based on a 3,200,000 word corpus of immediacy text (mainly private letters), we test the hypothesis ofel quebeing a case of grammaticalization in progress from a variationist point of view, examining in depth what happens inside the grammar and the socio-stylistic matrix in different periods of history, from 1700 to 1960. The idea underlying this approach is that the structure of changes as well as the grammaticalization in progress can be inferred from the comparative analysis between different quantitative magnitudes of functionally similar variants. To do so, we have performed three independent mixed-effects regression analyses (Rbrul), one for each century.The results of these comparative analyses confirm the progression ofel quein prepositional subordinate clauses between the early eighteenth century and the first half of the twentieth. Yet, this progression has taken place at a slow pace and, objectively, can only be described as moderate. Moreover, a number of elements of continuity in history are revealed, such as several conditioning factors that are systematically selected and with the same explanatory direction in all periods. This casts serious doubt on the existence of a grammaticalization in progress in the case ofel que, and sees the evolution as not essentially different from other morphosyntactic changes that have taken place in the history of Spanish.
The Introduction of SteriDefiTM: a Serious Game for Continuous Training of Sterilization Staff in French Hospitals

Published: March 2018

Abstract
Sterilization is a pharmaceutical discipline constantly evolving and requiring highly qualified staff. In response to the need highlighted by French sterilization heads, the French Society for Sterilization Science (SF2S) has developed a serious game called “SteriDefiTM”. To design the game, a literature review was carried out in order to determine the essential points to be included in its specifications. The second step was to launch the IT (Information Technology) development. In parallel, a database was drafted by a panel of 8 experts in the field of sterilization. At last, the version initially produced was tested over a two-month period. The accessibility, its settings and gameplay were evaluated and improved. Data have been collected to determine the number of user establishments and games played since it was on line. In addition, a multi-centre study is planned to measure the evolution of knowledge and the satisfaction of players with the game.
Dopamine dysregulation hypothesis: the common basis for motivational anhedonia in major depressive disorder and schizophrenia?
Authors: Szczypiński Jan Józef , Gola Mateusz 
Published: March 2018

AbstractAbnormalities in reward processing are crucial symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia (SCH). Recent neuroscientific findings regarding MDD have led to conclusions about two different symptoms related to reward processing: motivational and consummatory anhedonia, corresponding, respectively, to impaired motivation to obtain rewards (‘wanting’), and diminished satisfaction from consuming them (‘liking’). One can ask: which of these is common for MDD and SCH. In our review of the latest neuroscientific studies, we show that MDD and SCH do not share consummatory anhedonia, as SCH patients usually have unaltered liking. Therefore, we investigated whether motivational anhedonia is the common symptom across MDD and SCH. With regard to the similarities and differences between the neural mechanisms of MDD and SCH, here we expand the current knowledge of motivation deficits and present the common underlying mechanism of motivational anhedonia – the dopamine dysregulation hypothesis – stating that any prolonged dysregulation in tonic dopamine signaling that exceeds the given equilibrium can lead to striatal dysfunction and motivational anhedonia. The implications for further research and treatment of MDD and SCH are also discussed.
Differentiated non-differentiation: A diagrammatical approach to the trialectics of difference – from mono-dialectics to mono-trialectics
Authors: Mortier Thierry 
Published: March 2018

AbstractThere exist visual signs that have stood their ground throughout the ages for the simple reason that they fit the bill. They are evident or evidently true representations. The bill they fit are life, sentience, and sapience. Which is saying that it comes down to instinctive recognition, i.e., unexplainable, but unmistakably evident. They are true because we feel they are true. This paper attempts to counter the adage that “the obvious can only be explained to those that already understand it” by visually transforming the ancient sign best known as the “yin-yang sign” or Taijitu. The goal is to demonstrate that diagrammatical transformations reveal knowledge inherently present in the visual. In other words, an attempt to reinstate the status of diagram that the Taijitu originally had instead of an image, a visual, an emblem … labels that point more to what it demonstrates than to what it is, i.e., an actionable tool. To do so C. S. Peirce’s triadic sign will be juxtaposed to the sign under analysis, and his work on Existential Graphs will be used to orchestrate transformations, thus tapping into the diagrammatic nature of the sign. Following which, the similarities with Henri Lefebvre’s trialectics will be shown in the resulting diagrammatic transformations.
The expected adjacency and modularity matrices in the degree corrected stochastic block model
Authors: Fasino Dario , Tudisco Francesco 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
We provide explicit expressions for the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices that can be written as the Hadamard product of a block partitioned matrix with constant blocks and a rank one matrix. Such matrices arise as the expected adjacency or modularity matrices in certain random graph models that are widely used as benchmarks for community detection algorithms.
Temperature-induced phase transition of isonicotinamide-malonic acid (2/1) and supramolecular construct analysis of isonicotinamide structures
Authors: Chia Tze Shyang , Quah Ching Kheng 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
The isonicotinamide-malonic acid (2/1) co-crystal salt (2IN·C3) exhibits a first-order displacive structural phase transition from low-temperature triclinic P1̅ crystal structure to high-temperature monoclinic C2/c crystal structure and vice versa at the transition temperatures of 298 (1) and 295 (1) K, respectively, as determined by variable-temperature SCXRD analysis and DSC measurements. The asymmetric unit of 2IN·C3 comprises three malonic acid molecules and six isonicotinamide molecules at the low-temperature phase, and this is reduced to a half-molecule of malonic acid and an isonicotinamide molecule in the high-temperature phase. The carboxyl and pyridinium H atoms are disordered at both phases. The observed phase transition near room temperature is triggered by the molecular displacement of the isonicotinamide molecule and the syn-anti conformational transformation of the malonic acid molecule with deviation angles of 10.4 and 11.7°, respectively, which induced an energy change of 19.1 kJ mol−1 in the molecular cluster comprising a central isonicotinamide molecule and eight neighboring molecules. However, the total interaction energy of the molecular cluster of a central malonic acid molecule and eight neighboring molecules does not change significantly upon the phase transition. The molecules of isonicotinamide structures except IN·IN+·triazole
‒ form zero-dimensional finite arrays or one-dimensional chains as the primary supramolecular construct by carboxyl···pyridyl (−35.9 to −56.7 kJ mol−1) and carboxamide···carboxamide (−53.6 to −68.7 kJ mol−1) or carboxyl···carboxamide (−52.6 to −67.1 kJ mol−1) synthons.

Eine Renaissance völkischen Denkens?
Authors: Köck Julian 
Published: March 2018

ZusammenfassungIn diesem Essay wird auf die starke strukturelle Ähnlichkeit von Gedanken der äußersten Rechten (in Gestalt der Völkischen Bewegung) im späten 19. und 20. Jahrhundert und solchen hingewiesen, die heute überwiegend im linken politischen Spektrum zu finden sind. Sowohl der völkische Nationalismus als auch die „Identitätspolitik“ zielen auf die Konstruktion von Gruppen ab, denen normativer Charakter im Bezug auf ihre Mitglieder eingeräumt wird. Entsprechend werden Identitätsgruppen als die wesentlichen Träger von Gesellschaft und Staat angesehen – und nicht autarke Individuen. Der Essay formuliert abschließend die These, dass sich Rassisten und Antirassisten immer schwerer unterscheiden lassen, was letztlich nichts Gutes für Individualisten, die Vernunft und das Ideal einer aufgeklärten Gesellschaft mündiger Bürger bedeuten kann.
„Australien den Australiern“?
Authors: Kistenmacher Olaf 
Published: March 2018

ZusammenfassungDie Kommunistische Internationale orientierte sich in den 1920er Jahren theoretisch und praktisch an der Analyse des Imperialismus, die 1916 Wladimir I. Lenin in Der Imperialismus als höchstes Stadium des Kapitalismus vorgenommen hatte. Dabei existierte mit Rosa Luxemburgs 1912 vorgelegter Studie Die Akkumulation des Kapitals. Ein Beitrag zur ökonomischen Erklärung des Imperialismus ein alternativer Erklärungsansatz für die imperialistischen Tendenzen kapitalistischer Staaten. Dieser wurde allerdings kaum rezipiert. Auf der Grundlage von Lenins Analyse suchte die Komintern das Bündnis mit allen nationalen Befreiungsbewegungen, auch wenn diese nicht kommunistisch oder wie im Fall der arabischen Nationalbewegung im britischen Mandatsgebiet Palästina antikommunistisch waren. Luxemburg hingegen hatte schon vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg vor den Gefahren der „‚nationalen‘ Befreiung“ gewarnt und auch die Kommunistische Partei Russlands (Bolschewiki) deutlich für deren Politik des „Selbstbestimmungsrechts der Nationen“ kritisiert.
Islamischer Antirassismus
Authors: Perrefort Felix 
Published: March 2018

ZusammenfassungWeil es im Rassismusbegriff der Critical Whiteness beschlossen liegt, den Islam als „nicht-weiß“ und durch die „white supremacy“, also die westliche Zivilisation, unterdrückt zu betrachten, wird er nicht als vormoderne Herrschaftsideologie begriffen, sondern identitätspolitisch in kultureller Vielfalt aufgelöst. Die Kritik des Islams, des islamischen „Anderen“ und des Orients erscheint so als koloniale Wissensproduktion ohne triftigen Wirklichkeitsbezug. Im (Sprach-)Konstruktivismus verstrickt und deshalb ohne Bezug zum Universalismus, substituiert der Antirassismus die Kritik der Wirklichkeit durch eine ihrer Darstellung, und wird in seiner Unfähigkeit, die Islamisierung als reales und bedrohliches Phänomen zu reflektieren, zu einer Ideologie des gesellschaftlichen Appeasements ihr gegenüber.
Postkoloniale Normalisierung: Anmerkungen zur Debatte um eine koloniale Qualität von Nationalsozialismus und Holocaust
Authors: Klävers Steffen 
Published: March 2018

ZusammenfassungNeuere Forschungsansätze aus dem Bereich der vergleichenden Genozidforschung und der postkolonialen Studien postulieren, dass Nationalsozialismus und Holocaust eine koloniale Qualität aufwiesen. Von qualitativen Unterschieden zwischen kolonialer und nationalsozialistischer Herrschaft und Gewalt zu sprechen, wird mit wissenschaftlichem Eurozentrismus assoziiert. Die Vorstellung einer ‚Singularität’ des Holocausts wird abgelehnt. Die zentralen Annahmen solcher Ansätze werden im Artikel rekonstruiert, untersucht und mit Erkenntnissen der Holocaust- und Antisemitismusforschung kontrastiert. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Spezifik des modernen NS-Antisemitismus in komparativ-postkolonialen Analysen des Holocaust nicht adäquat aufgegriffen wird.

Abstract
Guillamó, E, Travier, N, Oviedo, GR, Fonseca-Nunes, A, Alamo, JM, Cos, F, Roca, A, Niño, O, Agudo, A, and Javierre, C. Physical test to estimate suitable workloads for an exercise program in breast cancer survivors. J Strength Cond Res 34(12): 3593–3599, 2020—Epidemiologic studies suggest that patients with breast cancer who gain weight after diagnosis have a higher risk of recurrence and death. Regular physical exercise can help minimize postdiagnosis weight gain. The objective of the study was to assess the effectiveness of a physical test for individualizing the workloads used during a fitness program. To continuously individualize the intensity of the training, a test was designed and integrated into the sessions. The test consisted in monitoring heart rate and workload during 2 bouts of cycling at moderate intensity. The workload parameters recorded during the tests were later used as reference values to plan the intensity of the next in-person training sessions. The 5 tests conducted during the 12 weeks of the intervention showed significant differences in intensity (F = 3.034, p = 0.047). Compared with the first evaluation, the intensities measured during the third, fourth, and fifth tests presented increases of 9.9% (p = 0.02), 13.2% (p = 0.019), and 17.5% (p = 0.002), respectively. A significant increase in workload with respect to body weight was observed in the physical assessment performed after the program (t = 13.2, p = 0.0001). The peak oxygen consumption with respect to body weight (peak V̇o
2) achieved by the subjects during the assessment at the end of the program had also increased (t = 9.72, p = 0.0001). The intensity test, introduced in the training sessions along with the physical exercise program, was an easy-to-use, practical tool for monitoring intensity. It allows an adjustment of the workload over the program period that respects the individual progression of each patient.
Assessment of Strengths of Crumb Rubber Concrete at Low Temperature

Published: March 2018

Abstract
The disposal of waste rubber has attracted a great deal attention because of the serious environmental problems caused by the growing overuse of rubber products. A feasible alternative that has caused concern is the incorporation of recycled materials into cementitious composites in civil construction. The performance of such materials at ambient temperature has been fully reported in the literature. However, limited data is available on the behaviors of crumb rubber concrete (CRC) at low temperature. This article studies the features of the cubic compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and tension-compression ratio of CRC specimens at ambient temperature of 20°C and low temperatures of 0°C and −30°C. By experimental tests, the effects of the rubber content and water-binder ratio on the mechanical properties were analyzed. It was shown that the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of CRC are significantly enhanced with the decrease of temperature, which is similar to the case of conventional concrete, but the trend of strength growth at low temperatures differs from the trend of strength growth at the ambient temperature of 20°C. The tension-compression ratio of CRC increases gradually with the temperature decrement, indicating that the CRC still exhibits excellent ductility at low temperature. As comparative analysis, it is known that when the water-binder ratio is 0.40, and the volume replacement rate of rubber substituted for fine aggregate is 20 %, the CRC presents optimal mechanical properties at a low temperature of −30°C. The assessment of the strengths of CRC at low temperatures may support the necessary experimental data for the application of CRC at low temperatures.
A Simple Approach to Performing Large Strain Cyclic Simple Shear Tests: Methodology and Experimental Results
Authors: Muhammad Waqas , Kang Jidong , Mishra Raja K. , Inal Kaan 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
A simple and efficient methodology has been proposed for characterizing the large strain cyclic simple shear behavior of engineering materials. The proposed methodology includes the use of a modified test specimen coupled with a digital image correlation system to measure the evolution of shear strains during cyclic simple shear deformation. The effectiveness and simplicity of the proposed testing procedure for cyclic simple shear testing lie in the fact that it does not require any custom test apparatus or fixtures to conduct cyclic simple shear tests. The proposed test sample for cyclic simple shear testing makes use of conventional tensile machine with standard grips to conduct the tests. Furthermore, the coupling of the digital image correlation system allows for full-field surface strain mapping, enabling measurement of shear strain evolution throughout the cyclic shear deformation, avoiding any complications associated with shear strain measurements using conventional extensometry techniques. The proposed methodology is successfully applied to characterize the large strain cyclic simple shear behavior of extruded aluminum alloy AA6063 in both T4 and T6 tempered conditions. The obtained cyclic simple shear results are further discussed in light of microstructure evolution during cyclic simple shear deformation.
