Discovering patterns of play in netball with network motifs and association rules
Authors: Browne P. , Morgan S. , Bahnisch J. , Robertson S. 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
In netball, analysis of the movement of players and the ball across different court locations can provide information about trends otherwise hidden. This study aimed to develop a method to discover latent passing patterns in women’s netball. Data for both pass location and playing position were collected from centre passes during selected games in the 2016 Trans-Tasman Netball Championship season and 2017 Australian National Netball League. A motif analysis was used to characterise passing-sequence observations. This revealed that the most frequent, sequential passing style from a centre pass was the “ABCD” motif in an alphabetical system, or in a positional system “Centre–Goal Attack–Wing Attack–Goal Shooter” and rarely was the ball passed back to the player it was received from. An association rule mining was used to identify frequent ball movement sequences from a centre pass play. The most confident rule flowed down the right-hand side of the court, however seven of the ten most confident rules demonstrated a preference for ball movement down the left-hand side of the court. These results can offer objective insight into passing sequences, and potentially inform team strategy and tactics. This method can also be generalised to other invasion sports.
Test of a non-rectangular penalty area in the Euro 2016, Copa América 2016 and 2018 World Cup
Authors: Morales C. A. 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
A recent proposal for a new geometry of the penalty area for football (soccer) has been put to the test by analyzing games of the 2016 continental championships, the European and South American ones, and the 2018 FIFA World Cup which are by far the three most important nations tournaments in the sport. All matches after the first stage were analyzed and some instances were found in these critical or knockout matches in which the game and its fairness would have improved if the penalty area had been drawn according to mathematics or a measure of actual scoring chance.

Published: August 2019

Abstract
By analyzing the exploitation process of selected electronic devices (including those used in communication and radiolocation systems), it can be concluded that they operate in heterogeneous, often extreme conditions. Their operate in a full ability state depends not only on the reliability of the subsystems that create them, but also on the effective management of their exploitation, including vulnerability and resistance to the impact of strong electromagnetic pulses. The article proposes specific criteria containing indicators that enable the assessment of the strong electromagnetic pulses impact on the functioning of selected electronic devices.

Published: August 2019

Abstract
In reliability predicting field, the probabilistic approaches are based on data relating to the components which can be precisely known and validated by the return of experience REX, but in the case of complex systems with high-reliability precision such as mechatronic systems, uncertainties are inevitable and must be considered in order to predict with a degree of confidence the evaluated reliability. In this paper, firstly we present a brief review of the non-probabilistic approaches. Thereafter we present our methodology for assessing the reliability of the mechatronic system by taking into account the epistemic uncertainties (uncertainties in the reliability model and uncertainties in the reliability parameters) considered as a dynamic hybrid system and characterized by the existence of multi-domain interaction between its failed components. The key point in this study is to use an Evidential Network “EN” based on belief functions and the dynamic Bayesian network. Finally, an application is developed to illustrate the interest of the proposed methodology.

Published: August 2019

Abstract
Al doped ZnO (AZO) thin films were prepared on silica substrates by sol-gel method. The films showed a hexagonal wurtzite structure with a preferred orientation along c-axis. Suitable Al doping dramatically improved the crystal quality compared to the undoped ZnO films. Dependent on the Al dopant concentration, the diffraction peak of (0 0 2) plane in XRD spectra showed at first right-shifting and then left-shifting, which was attributed to the change in defect concentration induced by the Al dopant. Photocatalytic properties of the AZO film were characterized by degradation of methyl orange (MO) under simulated solar light. The transmittance of the films was enhanced by the Al doping, and the maximum transmittance of 80 % in the visible region was observed in the sample with Al concentration of 1.5 at.% (mole fraction). The film with 1.5 at.% Al doping achieved also maximum photocatalytic activity of 68.6 % under solar light. The changes in the film parameters can be attributed to the variation in defect concentration induced by different Al doping content.

Non-Cartesian Frame Transformation-Based Control of a Three-Phase Power Converter During Unbalanced Voltage Dip – Part I: Transformation Principles
Authors: Iwański Grzegorz , Maciejewski Paweł , Łuszczyk Tomasz 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
One of the currently investigated problems in power electronics-based electrical energy conversion is proper operation of electronic converters during grid voltage imbalance and harmonics. In classic control methods, it introduces oscillations of variables, resulting in the necessity to improve control systems with signals filtration and usually by application of resonant terms as part of current controllers. The paper presents a new approach to grid-connected inverter control based on transformation to a non-Cartesian frame, the parameters of which are correlated with grid voltage asymmetry. The proposed method results in resignation from resonant terms used as controllers and their replacement with proportional–integral terms for which anti-wind-up structures are significantly simpler than for oscillatory terms. The paper presents new transformation principles, features and some simulation results showing the waveforms of signals transformed to the new non-Cartesian frame.
Non-Cartesian Frame Transformation-Based Control of a Three-Phase Power Converter During Unbalanced Voltage Dip – Part II: Simulation And Experiment
Authors: Iwański Grzegorz , Maciejewski Paweł , Łuszczyk Tomasz 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
The paper presents a control method for the three-phase power converter operating under unbalanced grid voltage conditions. The method uses a new transformation to the non-Cartesian frame, which makes the controlled current vector components balanced in this frame even if originally the three-phase current is referenced as unbalanced. Furthermore, Park’s transformation makes the controlled variables constant, which allows to apply proportional–integral terms as current controllers independent of the required control target. Several control targets known from literature have been analyzed with regard to the required new transformation parameters, and the transformation parameters for all targets have been found. Simulation results are shown to prove the theoretical analysis, and the experimental test results are presented as practical validation of the proposed use of the non-Cartesian frame in control.

Published: August 2019

Abstract

Introduction. A balanced diet can help to prevent cardiovascular diseases. It particularly applies to the increased risk patients, including postmenopausal women with dyslipidaemia.

Aim. The aim of this study was to assess dietary habits, and consumption of selected nutrients which may have influence on the cardiovascular risk and determine nutritional knowledge in the group of women.

Material and methods. The study was conducted in 60 postmenopausal women with dyslipidaemia. The nutritional status was assessed on the basis of anthropometric measurements. The assessment of nutrition was evaluated using a 24-hour dietary recall during 4 days. Based on the authors’ questionnaire, dietary habits and the level of knowledge on the cardiovascular risk factors were assessed.

Results. The diet of the studied group of women was characterized by excessive supply of energy derived from fat and inappropriate supply of cholesterol, dietary fiber, sodium and vitamin D. Based on the assessed dietary habits, it was shown that the patients preferred foods with reduced fat content and mostly added salt for preparing their meals. Knowledge of factors affecting cardiovascular risk was insufficient.

Conclusions. Inadequate diet with insufficient nutritional knowledge in the studied group of women may significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases in the future.

Published: August 2019

Abstract
The profession of paramedic is a recent profession functioning in Poland since 1992. Over those 27 years the training, the role and responsibilities given to paramedics have undergone many changes. Initially, paramedics were trained in two-year colleges (post-secondary schools) and were not qualified to administer medical emergency treatment (medical rescue procedures) at the place of accidents. At present, they are educated at universities and are qualified to apply emergency medical treatment by themselves, inter alia to ensure the safe transport of the injured person in a life-threatening emergency, provide mental support to the injured, and carry out health education and promotion. Moreover, they are the core personnel of the State Medical Rescue System (PRM).
The goal of the study was to present the history of the establishment of paramedical profession and its current role and responsibilities in the PRM.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to examine, evaluate and compare the effects of administered dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors saxagliptin and sitagliptin on lipid status parameters and blood pressure in rats with streptozotocine induced diabetes mellitus type 2. Forty-eight Wistar albino rats were divided randomly into 4 groups: 1. group I: control healthy group; 2. group II: rats with diabetes mellitus type 2; 3. group III: rats with diabetes mellitus type 2+ treated with 0.6 mg/kg of sitagliptin; 4. group IV: rats with diabetes mellitus type 2 treated with 0.45 mg/kg of saxagliptin. The rats from experimental groups were fed with a high-fat diet for 4 weeks and after 6–8 h of starvation received one dose of streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneally (25 mg/kg body weight) to induce type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Animals with fasting glucose above 7 mmol/L and insulin over 6 mmol/L were included in the study as rats with T2DM. Upon completion of the experiments, the blood was collected from the anesthetized animals and serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TCH), high density lipoprotein (HDL), and low density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured using spectrophotometry and commercial kits. At the beginning of the study and the day before sacrificing animals, the blood pressure and heart rate were measured by a tail-cuff noninvasive method. DPP4 inhibitors, as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, were associated with modest reductions in DBP, LDL-C, TCH, and TGL and significant improvement in HDL, SBP and HR.

Published: August 2019

Both Thai and Javanese have been with lifelong cultural friendship for over 250 years. Thai people enjoyed the Panji storytelling since the late 1700’s andhave been using Panji as written Thai poetic literature and for court theatre over2 centuries. We shared the same brass knobbed gong culture with its pentatonic(Slendro) and septatonic (Pelog) equidistance scales. The angklung, bambooshaking instrument, were brought as a gift to royal children by HM King Rama the V to Siam since 1871 but the ensemble were not set up until our great court musician named Jangwang Sorn Silapa-banleng, took the instruments from Sunda West Java to Bangkok in 1908, later, he established the very first ThaiAngklung Ensemble played several songs he composed in pentatonic scalesame way he heard in the Javanese Islands. Since then, the bamboo angklungwere made with the Thai native bamboo followed by the nationwide uses. Thispaper describes the Angklung Journey from West Java to Thailand showing thehistoric photographs of Thai Angklung music teachers, their houses ofAngklungs and the music they composed. Today, Thai Angklung were used forchildren classroom music. DVD and Musical Disc of Thai Angklung will bedemonstrated, bringing both music knowledge and enjoyment to show thecross cultural examples of the two nations.

New observations of Tin Mineralization Potential Vis-à-Vis Ore Petrographic, Alteration and Geochemistry in the Southeastern part of Bastar Craton, Central India
Authors: Singh Abhimanyu , Singh Vinod K. 
Published: August 2019

The Tin mineralizations occur around the Katekalyan area, hosted in the acid magmatic rocks. The evolution differentiating granitic magma shows residual melt enrichment where end products intruded as pegmatites into the rocks. The different kind of pegmatite occur as simple unzoned, recrystallized (granitic pegmatite), and metasomatic greisenised and albitised pegmatites which emplaced within the pre-existing rocks of metabasic intrusive, granite (KG), granite gneiss (KGG). Sometimes it also found in metasediments as mineralised and non-mineralised characters along the fractures and foliation planes trending N-S, E-W and more frequently are observed NNW-SSE trends. Cassiterite is most important Tin-ore mineral and associated with pegmatites. Some cassiterite samples exhibit colourless to brown shades zoning which indicate multi stage growth. The cassiterite samples contain significant amounts of Sn, Nb, Ta with minor W.
The partial melting model shows that the variation 5 to 50% partial melting of bulk continental crust for KG as well as KGG rocks but bulk distribution coefficient for Sr (DSr) shows low i.e. <<10. The upper limit of partial melting of bulk crust estimates ~50 % for KG and KGG rocks are consistent with required rheological, critical melt percentage to leave the source region has decreased granite melt which were capable to mineralised tin ore elements. It is interesting to note that the SnF4 and SnCl4 probably not stable in presence of water under geologically reasonable conditions.
