Colour Preference of Online Consumers: a Cross- Cultural Perspective
Authors: Broeder Peter , Scherp Evelien 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
This study focuses on the influence of colour on the online purchasing intention of consumers. The literature review about colour associations showed that several factors could play a mediating role in the relationship between colour and purchasing intention. Two of these factors are emotion and trust, which have been shown in previous studies to have a relationship both with certain colours and with online purchasing intention. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between colour and online purchasing intention, taking into account the influence of emotion, trust and cultural differences between Western and Asian cultures. The method used to investigate these relationships was an online survey, which has been conducted amongst 522 participants from seven countries that can be separated in Western (The Netherlands, Germany and United Kingdom) and Asian (China, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia) cultures. The survey asked the participants about their cultural background, attitudes towards the product and message, emotions, level of trust, colour influences and experience. When filling in the survey, an image was presented to the participants that showed an online shopping background, a coloured context and a simple digital photo camera. Only the coloured context of this image varied amongst the participants; every participant answered the questions being exposed to one colour: red, yellow or blue. The results of the study showed that the direct relationship between colour and online purchasing intention was supported only for the colour yellow and that emotion indeed played a mediating role between colour and online purchasing intention, although no clear relationships could be defined between colours on the one hand and emotion and trust on the other hand. Concerning the cultural differences, results on emotion were found for both Western and Asian cultures, but trust was shown to influence the relationship between colour and online purchasing intention only for Asian consumers. The results partly confirmed the findings of previous studies, but also highlighted areas that need to be studied in more detail or by using another method. Overall, the study showed that colour does influence online purchasing intention, so companies should consider this when persuading consumers to buy their products.

Published: March 2018

Abstract
First years of specialised retail (in terms of department stores or shopping centres) either that we discuss of the period before the communist regime or that during the regime period itself it is a reality that both benefit from few relevant evidences. As a parallel to those times, the time frame starting from 1990, is the one that provides us with many more details, and like this allowing us to develop an accurate portrait of those retail days. The objectives of the current study is to identify the GLA distribution in the panel of the evaluated cities (as in comparison to the Activ Property Services - APS study) and starting from here to illustrate the existing retail agglomeration in those 24 major cities of Romania. The work behind the proposed paper implied a market research using personal expertise for this field, internet resources, retail magazines, specialised retail agency studies so that to be able to point out, as accurately as possible, all relevant information related to the retail field of activity. Among the conclusions that this study provides, starting with the analysis of the existing shopping centre stock (in the major cities of Romania) and comparing these results with those from the research conducted by APS, in 2017, we find out that more than 77% of the entire GLA of this retail sector is located in those 24 major cities analysed in the current study.
Fine Arts: 1. Art During the Transition Period Between Paleolithic and Neolithicon the Territory of Romania
Authors: Olaru Ioana-Iulia 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
This material refers to one of the many transition periods from the History of Art on the territory of Romania - that is the period which separates Paleolithic from Neolithic: Epi-Paleolithic, with its endcalled (and accepted, first of all!) by some researchers: Mesolithic. As we will see, we will refer to the art of this moment of great complexity and diversity. From an artistic pointof view, Epi-Paleolithic already has tools which can be placed in the category of technical beauty, as far as form is concerned, precision becomes more and more important,and also the skillfulness of their production and the delicate, refined finishing; also connected to the artistic side of the period, the interest for beauty for creating geometrical-abstract decorations increases, obviously becoming a coherent ornamental motif. In the final phase of Epi-Paleolithic, the Mesolithic period comes with an art which is different from the one of the culture Schela Cladovei, characterized by ornaments with simple geometrical motifs, liniar incisions, oblique or in a network, this geometry leading to the main compositional textures of decoration of the oldest phase of the future Neolithic culture Criș.
Education: 10. Implementation of Formative – Innovative Praxeology in Artistic Education: The Topical Desideratum
Authors: Bularga Tatiana 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Modern education, especially the artistic one, has a stringent need of an innovative praxeology, which, unlike the receptive praxeology, does not take over the rough theoretical and methodological approaches, but obliges the practitioner to gather from the available sources only the ideas of perceived essences, so that later to come before pupils with new actional options. Such a praxeology becomes more than just a practical act, because it puts the teacher in the role of interim manager function between theory and practice. In this hypostasis, the practitioner fully corresponds to praxeologic rigors, which are reduced to the specifics of the logistic design and achievement of artistic action.
Education: 11. Artistic Education, A Promoter for the Development of School Creativity from the Intercultural Perspective
Authors: Paşca Eugenia Maria 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
The main aims of artistic education are almost similar in all European countries. Almost all countries mention “artistic skills, knowledge and understanding”, “critical appreciation”, “cultural heritage”, “individual expression/identity”, “cultural diversity” and “creativity” as objectives. However, “arts and permanent learning/interest” are mentioned only in 15 curricula. The various initiatives and recommendations for the development of artistic and cultural education in European countries are based on information on the establishment of national organizations and networks to promote artistic education and the development of partnerships between schools, artistic/cultural organizations and artists. Cultural identity as well as the development of creativity are a priority through such approaches.
A Strut Finite Element for Exact Incompressible Isotropic Hyperelastic Analysis
Authors: Arcaro Vinicius F. , Ferrazzo Pietro C. 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
This text describes a mathematical model of a strut finite element for isotropic incompressible hyperelastic materials. The invariants of the Right Cauchy-Green deformation tensor are written in terms of nodal displacements. The equilibrium problem is formulated as an unconstrained nonlinear programming problem, where the objective function is the total potential energy of the structure and the nodal displacements are the unknowns. The constraint for incompressibility is satisfied exactly, thereby eliminating the need for a penalty function. The results of the examples calculated by the proposed mathematical model show five significant digits in agreement when compared with commercial finite element analysis software.

Published: March 2018

Abstract
The cost of road construction and expenditures on the maintenance of pavements, i.e., their whole life cost, represents a lot of money. The paper describes a procedure for a pavement management system with degradation models and estimates the length of time for the rehabilitation of an asphalt pavement. Using a theory of pavement mechanics, we calculated the stresses and strains on the layers of two pavement models. High modulus asphalt concrete, an asphalt mix with a high binder content, and an asphalt mix with binder modifications are new road building materials. Prolonging the time for the rehabilitation of pavements is possible.

Program swasembada daging sapi, telah memacu berkembangnya usaha peternakan sapi potong lokal. Sedangkan usaha penggemukan sapi impor ikut berkembang karena adanya target untuk memenuhi kebutuhan daging sapi perkapita sebanyak 2,2 kg. Hasil ikutannya adalah meningkatnya timbulan limbah kandang yang merupakan campuran antara alas kandang dengan kotoran sapi. Limbah kandang yang utamanya kotoran sapi, merupakan bahan baku utama pada pembuatan pupuk organik. Namun pembuatan pupuk organik berbahan baku limbah kandang bukanlah tanpa masalah. Untuk itulah penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan mengetahui karakteristik pupuk organik berbahan baku limbah kandang, mengevaluasi faktor positif dan negatifnya; serta memberikan masukan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pupuk organiknya. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa kandungan unsur hara makro utama, kadar Fe, pH dan keberadaan mikroba fungsionalnya memenuhi Permentan 70 tahun 2011. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa pupuk organik yang dibuat dari pupuk kandang memiliki kualitas yang baik. Pada sisi lain, keberadaan mikroba kontaminan (E. coli dan Salmonella sp), positif pada pukan segar dan negatif pada pukan kering dan pupuk organik. Selain itu, analisa tingkat kematangan menyimpulkan bahwa pupuk organik yang diteliti belum mencirikan pupuk yang sudah stabil atau matang. Kedua hal tersebut merupakan permasalahan yang sering dihadapi pada pembuatan pupuk organik berbahan baku limbah kandang. Pemecahannya adalah memperpanjang waktu proses dekomposisinya sampai diperoleh pupuk yang memenuhi kriteria pupuk organik (kompos) matang, dengan menggunakan teknologi composting. Proses dekomposisinya akan berjalan secara aerobik sehingga menghasilkan suhu tinggi yang dapat membunuh mikroba patogen (kontaminan) dan bibit gulma.

Impeller merupakan bagian dari pompa sentrifugal yang digunakan Â untuk kapal laut dan telah mengalami korosi seragam secara signifikan setelah satu tahun pengoperasian. Impeller terbuat dari ASTM B198-13A, grade C87400 yang merupakan jenis silicon brass. Hasil pemeriksaan visual menunjukkan bahwa seluruh permukaan kecuali pada bagian yang dilindungi oleh cat mengalami proses korosi di seluruh permukaan.Â Sedangkan pemeriksaan SEM menunjukkan adanya selective etching fasa-fasa tertentu. Hal pemeriksaan tersebut juga dikonfirmasi dengan pemeriksaan metalografi dimana menunjukkan adanya leaching dari fasa yang kaya akan unsur zinc mendekati zona terekspos. Oleh karena itu, mekanime korosi yang terjadi mengarah pada dezincfication. Analisis kimia dari material impeller menunjukkan bahwa material impeller yang diperiksa bukan jenis ASTM B584-836, namun agak mirip komposisi ASTM dimana merupakan jenis silicon brass dan merupakan jenis material kuningan yang tidak tahan serangan klorida tidak seperti leaded red brass.

Battery is the most important component in the sub marine energy system. Up to now, majority of the sub marine are still using lead acid battery as the power source or propulsion, due to more safe in application as very high capacity of single cell (i.e. 10.000 â€“ 15.000 Ah). The drawbacks of aqueous based battery, which utilize liquid electrolyte, are because of having produced the hydrogen gas during charging process, in which it caused the electrolyte solution to becomeÂ dry and reduced the performance of battery. In addition that the hydrogen gas generated in the sub marine was dangerous. Therefore, the aim ofÂ this research is how to reduce or eliminate of those drawbacks by modifying kind of the liquid electrolyte by using gel electrolyte. The gel electrolyte was synthesized to reduce the evaporation of electrolyte and to avoid the leaking when submarine maneuver.Â The gel electrolyte Â was made by using inorganic nanoporous MCM-41. It was synthesized by hydrothermal method, using Tetraethylortosilicate (TEOS) as silica sources, Cethyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as organic template and H2SO4 as catalyst. The MCM-41 lead acid battery gave a result of Â OCV ca. 2,1 V.
TINJAUAN UNJUK KERJA HIDRODINAMIKA PADA PENGEMBANGAN AWAL DESAIN RANPUR AMPHIBI BERODA BAN

Published: March 2018

Kendaraan tempur (ranpur) ampibi jenis AAPC (Amphibious Armored Personal Carrier) adalah ranpur militer pengangkut personel untuk mendukung operasi tempur serta dapat dimanfaatkan untuk mobilisasi penyeberangan basah pada perairan dangkal. Secara teknis ranpur-AAPC harus mampu beroperasi di darat maupun air dan dapat dikembangkan lebih lanjut untuk operasi ampibi pendaratan personil dari kapal ke pantai. Ranpur berbobot total 10,5 ton ini mempunyai kapasitas mengangkut 10 personil, dilengkapi sistem persenjataan kaliber 12,7mm dan dapat melaju di darat dengan kecepatan 110 km/jan dan dirancang berkecepatan 9 km/jam di air. Pada tulisan ini secara perhitungan numerik dikaji khususnya aspek unjuk kerja hidrodinamika ranpur saat beroperasi di air (amphibious mode), terutama karakteristik hidrostatika yang menyangkut Â aspek daya apung, aspek stabilitas serta aspek besar tenaga penggerak. Ketiga hal ini penting dikaji untuk menjamin kenyamanan maupun keselamatan saat ranpur-AAPC beroperasi di air. Dengan dirancang memiliki berat konstruksi dan muatan penuh, maka dari prediksi perhitungan hidrostatika, ranpur-AAPC mencapai sarat air /tinggi ketenggelaman maksimum 1,5 m, disini badan ranpur tercelup hingga bukaan pintu masuk personil, namun demikian ranpur masih mempunyai cadangan daya apung. Dari hasil prediksi kemampuan stabilitas menunjukkan bahwa, pada kondisi titik berat ranpur terletak disekitar 1,25 m dari garis dasar, meski kondisi ranpur oleng Â± 60o, lengan stabilitas ranpur masih mencapi nilai optimum aman. Namun demikian dengan bobot penuh 10,5 ton, untuk ranpur dapat melaju di air pada kecepatan 9 km/jam, diprediksi ranpur memerlukan daya penggerak cukup besar Â± 1600 HP. Dengan tenaga penggerak ranpur-AAPC terpasang hanya sebesar 215 HP, maka kecepatan operasi di air dinilai tidak akan dapat terpenuhi. Untuk itu bobot, bentuk dan kecepatan operasi ranpur perlu ditinjau kembali. Secara umum unjuk kerja hidrodinamika pengembangan awal desain ranpur-AAPC untuk misi ampibi cukup baik.

Развитие солнечной вспышки из анализа спектральных линий и солнечные космические лучи
Authors: Подгорный И.М. , Подгорный А.И. 
Published: March 2018

100-летние исследования космических лучей (КЛ) не привели к пониманию физики ускорения частиц. Ускорение в ударных волнах остается недоказанной гипотезой. Протоны на Солнце ускоряются до энергии ∼20 ГэВ. Вычисленный для ускорения во вспышечном токовом слое в короне и измеренный на нейтронных мониторах спектры совпадают при скорости пересоединения 107 см/с. Нет никаких оснований полагать, что механизмы ускорения галактических и солнечных космических лучей различны. Протоны от западных вспышек приходят без столкновений вдоль линии магнитного поля с запаздыванием равным времени пролета. Фотографии в спектральных линиях ионизованного железа показывают образование предвспышечного состояния. Из исследований эмиссии линий высокоионизованных ионов железа следует, что условия для появления вспышки создаются в короне над активной областью, когда численное МГД-моделирование демонстрирует накопление энергии для вспышки над активной областью в токовом слое. Резкое локальное увеличение температуры короны при вспышке до 20 МК демонстрируют спектральные линии 17-18 раз ионизованного железа.
Система глобального тока в активной области

Published: March 2018

По SHARP-магнитограммам трех компонент полного вектора магнитного поля, полученным по данным наблюдений HMI/SDO, нами исследованы магнитные поля и вертикальные электрические токи области NOAA 12473.
Первый этап работы предусматривал вычисление и анализ структуры вертикальных электрических токов в фотосфере исследуемой активной области (АО). Расчет вертикальных токов выполнялся интегральным методом с использованием данных о Bx- и By-компонентах вектора магнитного поля области. Вычисленные токи оказались более мелкоструктурными, чем магнитные поля, и хорошо сбалансированными (разбаланс 0.022 %). Низкий разбаланс токов позволил сделать вывод о замкнутости локальных токовых структур в низких петлях.
На втором этапе нами восстановлено потенциальное магнитное поле и проведено сравнение потенциального поля с наблюдаемым горизонтальным магнитным полем исследуемой АО. Выявлена регулярная вихревая структура непотенциальной компоненты наблюдаемого магнитного поля вокруг лидера АО, связанная с наличием глобального электрического тока. Глобальный ток в лидере области оказался положительным по знаку (направленным на наблюдателя) и равным 6 × 1012 А по абсолютной величине. Учитывая низкий разбаланс токов в области, можно предположить, что глобальный ток замыкается через хромосферу и корону на остальной части АО и может быть связан с непотенциальностью магнитных полей в верхних слоях атмосферы Солнца.
