Optimization of the Cool-Down Process for a System of Sintering Furnaces
Authors: Rogers Austin P. , Rasmussen Bryan P. 
Published: June 2018

Abstract
Sustainability in manufacturing systems involves the balance of energy, waste, and profit. This article presents a case study in which an industrial sintering process is optimized with respect to production, energy use, and material waste. The analysis proceeds by developing a physics-based furnace model, developing a cost function for optimization, and then considering the implementation costs associated with the solution. The furnace cycle time is reduced by optimally flowing the atmosphere gas through the furnace. A system of furnaces operating continuously is then considered, and the optimal control is modified in order to balance the profits with the implementation costs across a parallel set of furnaces. The implementation costs considered here include (1) the amount of gas storage required and (2) the size of the gas compressor required in order to implement the optimal control solution. The specific modeling and optimization methods used herein have broad application for thermal processes, and the general engineering approach should be used across the manufacturing sector to promote sustainability.

Published: July 2018

OBJECTIVES:
Shared care plans play an essential role in coordinating care across health care providers and settings for children with medical complexity (CMC). However, existing care plans often lack shared ownership, are out-of-date, and lack universal accessibility. In this study, we aimed to establish requirements for shared care plans to meet the information needs of caregivers and providers and to mitigate current information barriers when caring for CMC.

METHODS:
We followed a user-centered design methodology and conducted in-depth semistructured interviews with caregivers and providers of CMC who receive care at a tertiary care children’s hospital. We applied inductive, thematic analysis to identify salient themes. Analysis occurred concurrently with data collection; therefore, the interview guide was iteratively revised as new questions and themes emerged.

RESULTS:
Interviews were conducted with 17 caregivers and 22 providers. On the basis of participant perspectives, we identified 4 requirements for shared care plans that would help meet information needs and mitigate current information barriers when caring for CMC. These requirements included the following: (1) supporting the accessibility of care plans from multiple locations (eg, cloud-based) and from multiple devices, with alert and search features; (2) ensuring the organization is tailored to the specific user; (3) including collaborative functionality such as real-time, multiuser content management and secure messaging; and (4) storing care plans on a secure platform with caregiver-controlled permission settings.

CONCLUSIONS:
Although further studies are needed to understand the optimal design and implementation strategies, shared care plans that meet these specified requirements could mitigate perceived information barriers and improve care for CMC.
Overcoming the Grammar Barrier in Foreign Language Learning: The Role of Television Series
Authors: Azaryad Shechter Deborah 
Published: June 2018

Mastering the grammar of a foreign language requires learning the rules as well as the contexts within which the structures are used. Formal grammar instruction should therefore be augmented by exposing learners to authentic language. According to the literature, watching television series in the target language improves listening comprehension and enhances vocabulary acquisition. No study to date, however, has investigated the recursive use of one series, in the classroom and over an entire course, to explicitly teach grammar. Presenting apt pedagogical arguments substantiated by the literature on grammar instruction and evidence from the classroom, this article maintains that a television series can be an invaluable source of authentic language and an excellent means to teach grammar in context. It recommends using the dialogues in the scenes to teach and illustrate grammatical structures, especially those that are very different or do not exist in the learners’ mother tongue. The article also proposes giving students pertinent writing tasks and adequate corrective feedback to help them internalize these structures. Consistent with recent studies indicating a strong connection between emotion and cognition, this method raises the students’ motivation and enhances grammar learning; as such, it can supplant or complement conventional practices of grammar instruction and thereby warrants empirical studies. Finally, the article delineates directions for future research to elucidate how television series contribute to the teaching and learning of grammar.

Androcentrism of English proverbs and Anti-Proverbs with Gender Components
Authors: Kirsanova Maria 
Published: June 2018

Since the 20th century with the birth of feminism, gender studies have undergone analysis in many areas of knowledge. Special attention has been paid to the theory of androcentricity in the English language and the deficiency of female images in speech. In this article, the images of men and women presented by English proverbs and anti-proverbs are analyzed. The objective of this research is to find out if proverbs are androcentric and present male mindsets and world views. The other aim is to check whether anti-proverbs reflect the changing role of women in society. To fulfill these purposes, proverbs with gender components (man/woman, wife/husband, he/she etс.) were selected and underwent a semantic analysis. In order to reveal the evolution of the images of men and women we compared the images of men and women illustrated in proverbs with those shown in anti-proverbs with the same gender components. As a result, we came to the conclusion that both proverbs and anti-proverbs are androcentric; however, in anti-proverbs female opinions are more representative when compared to proverbs. To sum up, it is obvious that the role of women is changing and the changes are reflected in the language.

Gravity Models in R
Authors: Wölwer Anna-Lena , Breßlein Martin , Burgard Jan Pablo 
Published: June 2018

Gravity models are used to explain bilateral flows related to the sizes of bilateral partners, a measure of distance between them and other influences on interaction costs. The underlying idea is rather simple. The greater the masses of two bodies and the smaller the distance between them, the stronger they attract each other. This concept is applied to several research topics such as trade, migration or foreign direct investment. Even though the basic idea of gravity models is rather simple, they can become very complex when it comes to the choice of models or estimation methods. The package \textbf{gravity} targets to provide \proglang{R} users with the functions necessary to execute the most common estimation methods for gravity models, especially for cross-sectional data.

Gravitätsmodelle werden verwendet, um bilaterale Ströme zu erklären. Dabei werden sowohl die Größen und die Distanz der jeweiligen Partner als auch weitere Einflussfaktoren zur Erklärung herangezogen. Die zugrundeliegende Idee dieser Modelle beruht auf dem Gravitätsprinzip. Je schwerer zwei Körper und je kleiner deren Distanz zueinander, desto stärker ist ihre gegenseitige Anziehungskraft. Dieses Konzept wird auf verschiedene Forschungsreiche angewendet, so zum Beispiel Handel, Migration und ausländische Direktinvestitionen. Auch wenn die zugrundeliegende Idee von Gravitätsmodellen eher einfach ist, so kann deren Schätzung je nach Wahl des zugrundegelegten ökonomischen Zusammenhangs komplex werden. Das Paket \textbf{gravity} ermöglicht es \proglang{R}-Nutzern die gängigsten Verfahren für Gravitätsmodelle in der Querschnittsanalyse zu verwenden.

Published: June 2018

Portal venous gas in adults is associated with the development of abdominal compartment syndrome and can be used as a probable ultrasound diagnostic criterion. The case presents a patient aged 46 years after orthotopic heart transplant who developer abdominal syndrome in the intensive care unit postoperatively. Portal venous gas was a random finding during routine abdominal cavity ultrasound examination. Portal venous gas is a prognostically unfavorable sign. The early diagnosis can reduce the associated risk of death. Routine use of bedside ultrasound allows timely and accurately determining the presence of portal venous gas.
Arapkirli Hüseyin Avni’de Bilgi, Bilginin Kaynakları ve Değeri
Authors: Bozkurt Mustafa 
Published: June 2018

Osmanlının son dönemleri ve Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarında değişik eğitim kurumlarında kelam ilmi dersleri veren Arapkirli Hüseyin Avni, Mâtürîdî gelenekten gelmesine rağmen Eş’ari geleneğin önemli bir kolu olan felsefî-kelamın da son dönem önemli temsilcilerindendir. Bu çalışmada Hüseyin Avni’nin bilgi anlayışı, kendi eserleri temel alınarak ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.Hüseyin Avni, yapılan birçok bilgi tanımını eleştirmiştir. Mâtürîdî’ye ait olan tanımın güzel bir tanım olduğunu vurgulamıştır. Kendisi ise bilgi ile ilgili bir tanım denemesi yapmamıştır. Daha ziyade felsefe kelam tartışmalarının ve birbirlerine karşı reddiyelerin gündeme getirildiği tehâfüt geleneğine benzer bir bilgi tasnifi yapmaktadır.Bilginin kaynakları konusunda kelam geleneğine tam bir bağlılıkla bilginin kaynaklarının üç olduğunu belirtir. Bunların duyular, haber ve akıl olduğunu söyler. Bu kaynakların her birinin ayrı alanla ilgili bilgiler getirdiğini ve bu bilgilerin güvenilebilir kesin bilgiler olduğunu söyler. Duyuları tek tek ele alan Hüseyin Avni, kelamcıların kabul ettiği beş dış duyunun yanında İslam Filozoflarının kabul ettiği beş iç duyuya da yer vererek felsefî kelamın izlerini yansıtmaktadır. Haber konusuna özellikle de doğru haber konusuna değinerek resulün haberi ile daha ziyade hadisleri kastettiğini görmekteyiz. İlhamın sübjektif oluşu dolayısıyla kelamda delil olamayacağını belirtirken akıl hususunda hem kelamcıların hem de filozofların kabullerine yer vermektedir.

Educational Management Information System (EMIS) in Public Elementary School

Abstract - The study was conducted to determine the extent of effectiveness on the implementation of Education Management Information System (EMIS) as part of educational management functions in public elementary schools of Surigao Del Sur Philippines. Descriptive survey method using a researcher-made questionnaire was used. The respondents of the study were nine selected public elementary schools from the three clusters of Surigao Del Sur Division.
Findings revealed that from the eight (8) modules of EMIS, Pupil MIS received the highest mean while Finance MIS obtained the least as to the implementation of EMIS Modules. Planning and monitoring were found to be high as to the level of effectiveness of EMIS in public elementary schools. The study concludes that most of the public schools in Surigao Del Sur Division, regardless with its type, effectively implements EMIS Modules. However, Finance MIS requires further enrichment on planning, implementation, and evaluation. Hence, the study recommends strengthening of EMIS modules particularly on Finance MIS and establishment of sustainable EMIS by sharing the best practices in implementing the EMIS of the different schools.

Developing Small Towns as a Panacea to Poverty Reduction in Nigeria: A Focus on Itam And Ikot Ekpene in Akwaibom State, Nigeria
Authors: George Atelhe Atelhe, , Benyin Adah Akande, , Eyo Peter 
Published: July 2018

Nigeria’s economic development has most times been centred on promoting the expansion and growth of major cities in the country, while relegating the small towns to the background. Much attention has not been placed on rehabilitating and providing better living conditions for inhabitants of small towns. This has resulted in the continuous influx of goods and services into bigger cities, with the aim of finding greener pastures. This incidence invariably brings about overpopulation problems as encountered in these cities. Most of the poverty incidence experienced in Nigeria is often times situated in small towns where there are high level of income inequality and illiteracy. It is against this background the paper adopts a textual analysis to ascertain the rate of poverty incurred in small towns as a result of rural-urban migration. The paper also establishes the facts that developmental incentives in small towns is a panacea for equal development across the unit of the country. From the evidence in the paper, it is recommended that one way to reduce the poverty rate anchors on the need for government to ensure that measures for allocation of public investment across different sized urban agglomerations should be implemented selectively based on landmass so as to avoid over-crowding.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebutuhan anak usia dasar dan implikasinya terhadap penyelenggaraan pendidikan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian kualitatif jenis library research. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, kebutuhan anak usia dasar meliputi enam aspek yaitu, Pertama kebutuhan fisiologis seperti makanan, minuman, wahana permainan dan sebagainya. Kedua, kebutuhan perlindungan dan rasa aman seperti lingkungan yang asri, aman dan damai. Ketiga, kebutuhan akan rasa kasih sayang dan perhatian. Keempat, kebutuhan akan penghargaan atas segala tindakan atau prestasi. Kelima, kebutuhan aktualisasi diri seperti menunjukan kemampuan (ability) atau bakat (talent) yang dimiliki. Keenam yaitu kebutuhan akan rasa sukses. Setiap individu dan tingkatan usia anak memiliki level kebutuhan yang berbeda-beda, dikarenakan adanya perbedaan faktor usia, fisik, psikologi, keturunan dan lingkungan. Kebutuhan anak usia dasar sangat berkaitan dengan proses pendidikan anak. Pada usia dasar, anak memiliki kemampuan berifkir dan bergerak yang masih terbatas. Anak juga memiliki sifat yang egois, keras kepala, manja dan sensitif yang masih sangat tinggi. Hematnya, sebagai pihak eksternal, orang tua, guru maupun orang dewasa mesti memahami tingkat kebutuhan dan karakter anak, supaya tidak terjadi kesalahan dalam mendidik dan mengajar dalam rangka membentuk pribadi anak yang beriman, cerdas dan berkarakter.

Field Evidence for Frost‐Induced Cross‐Stress Tolerance in Canola
Authors: Fordyce Simon , Torrion Jessica , Lachowiec Jennifer , Miller Perry , Biddulph Ben , Carr Patrick 
Published: July 2018

Core Ideas
Frost events in June affected late‐flowering cultivars of canola.
Subsequent heat stress disproportionately affected early‐flowering cultivars.
Frost stress likely primed late‐flowering cultivars for subsequent heat stress.
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is most susceptible to frost damage from budding stage through early seed fill stage. In early June 2017, a late spring frost occurred while early‐flowering (EF) canola cultivars were at the flowering stage and late‐flowering (LF) cultivars were at the budding stage. A second frost 12 d later occurred after flowering had ended among EF cultivars but was still underway among LF cultivars. Subsequently, both EF and LF cultivars were exposed to high summer temperatures. There was a disproportionately greater negative impact from exposure to frost and subsequent heat stress among EF cultivars, indicating possible cross‐stress tolerance among LF cultivars. The LF cultivars were primed by frost for the heat that followed, while no priming was possible among EF cultivars since flowering was underway when the first stress (i.e., frost) occurred. If correct, this study represents the first known field evidence of frost‐induced cross‐stress tolerance in canola.
Late‐Season Nitrogen Application to Tobacco Produced in Fine‐Textured Soils

Published: July 2018

Core Ideas
Nitrogen is key to maximum leaf yield and quality.
Nitrogen management is currently based upon expected conditions.
Alternative strategies could improve N management.
Alternative strategies are not suitable for fine‐textured soil types.
Late‐season nitrogen (N) assimilation can greatly impact the yield and quality of flue‐cured tobacco, particularly in the fine‐textured Piedmont soils of North Carolina. Research was conducted in 2015 to 2016 to evaluate the effects of N application rate and number of N applications to the yield, quality, value, and leaf chemistry of flue‐cured tobacco. Liquid N (28% urea ammonium nitrate) was applied at 50, 70, and 90 lb N/acre. Each rate was either applied in two splits (0.5 rate 7–10 days after transplanting and 0.5 rate at layby) or three (0.5 rate 7–10 days after transplanting, a 0.25 rate at layby, and a 0.25 rate 2 weeks after layby) after transplanting. Cured leaf N concentration was similar at 50 and 70 lb N/acre (2.58 and 2.61%, respectively) but was increased in treatments receiving 90 lb N/acre (2.77%). Additionally, three N applications (2.73%) increased cured leaf N relative to two N applications (2.58%). The same treatment parameters did not impact yield or value but reduced cured leaf quality in one growing environment due to prolonged N assimilation. Results indicate that current recommendations for N application rates (50 lb/acre) and timings (split‐applied twice in equal portions) are adequate to obtain maximum yield, quality, and value on fine‐textured soils similar to those evaluated in this study.
