Formas e cores do imaginário na construção de um mito
Authors: Silva Vera Maria Tietzmann 
Published: July 2019

Este artigo pretende analisar a ilustração de Chico Moleque, um sonho de liberdade, de Maria Luiza Batista Bretas. Trata-se da história de um ex-escravo que comprou a sua alforria e a da sua família e fundou um quilombo em Goiás para abrigar outros negros que quisessem lá viver em liberdade. Apesar de a narrativa ser bastante simples e despretensiosa, as imagens criadas por Santiago Regis, devido a seu teor simbólico e místico, dão uma dimensão maior aos subentendidos da história.

Figurações da voragem em Duas Iguais (1998), de Cíntia Moscovich
Authors: Martins Gabriel Silveira 
Published: July 2019

O presente artigo busca explorar a temática da voragem na obra Duas iguais (1998), da escritora sul-rio-grandense Cíntia Moscovich (1958 –). Tomando a voragem como símbolo central da narrativa de Moscovich, buscamos identificar os diferentes elementos (alimentos, ritos de preparação, refeições, aromas etc.) presentes ao longo da trama e os modos pelos quais estabelecem vínculos com as diferentes relações entre a narradora-personagem Clara e os demais personagens da obra. De imediato, identificamos três diferentes polos em que o imaginário da comida aparece com significações distintas: no espaço familiar, na vida ao lado do marido e nas descrições da personagem Ana, com quem a protagonista vive um secreto caso de amor. Por fim, reforçamos a intrincada relação entre linguagem poética e discussão ética como um dos elementos de destaque da obra de Moscovich.

Published: July 2019

The process of energy saving mechanisms is been utilized by proper planning to transmit both critical clip and non-real infor-mation by reading overheads there by reducing throughput and bandwidth in large scale critical clip networks. The existing bundle sched-uling mythologies used were based on the First -in First-out (FIFO) manner in such cases the critical information at particular instant cannot be processed quickly but proposed system is designed in such a way it consists of three tier precedence structure .the critical in-formation bundles are placed in the higher status prioritizing queue and processed immediately and sent to the destination node where oth-er information bundles are given less precedence on the basis of position for non critical information bundles. The proposed scheme, ener-gy efficient in reducing the number of transmission by using merger technique. The lowest precedence bundles are processed after the higher precedence bundles. The proposed algorithm proves its uniqueness based on end -to-end delay than Energy efficient wake up scheduling MAC (EEWS) and Traffic Adaptive MAC protocol (TAMAC)

Published: July 2019

Batteries in renewable energy systems suffer problems that affect their service life and quality of performance. Therefore, battery management systems (BMS) are employed in battery-integrated systems to maintain optimal operating conditions by various dynamic impedance based battery models. These models require an accurate model parameter for BMS to work effectively. In this paper, two recently developed metaheuristic optimization, namely bird mating optimizer (BMO) and lightning search algorithm (LSA) is used effectively to determine the required parameters of well-known Randle’s battery model. Initially, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test for an EnerSys Cyclon lead-acid cell with a rated capacity of 2.5Ah is conducted using EZSTAT-pro Galvanostat/Potentiostat device from Nuvant systems Inc. Next, the Randle’s battery model parameters are obtained by BMO and LSA and its performances are evaluated. The results show that BMO and LSA can accurately find the model parameters. LSA obtains slightly more accurate results than BMO and converges much faster. However, for the same number of iterations, BMO takes less computation time than LSA. The optimized model can be used in BMS for fault finding and condition monitoring.
Simulation of Energy Dump Converter Topology for Switched Reluctance Motors
Authors: Ayob A , Abd Halim S , Yusof Y 
Published: July 2019

The switched reluctance machine (SRM) is the least expensive machine to produce yet it is very reliable. An SRM drive system has to be designed so that there is integration between the machine and the converter-controller configuration. This paper focuses on the resistor dump converter topology where most of the energy from the windings is dissipated in a resistor. A detailed analysis and simulation of the converter has been conducted and a design guideline for the proposed converter is laid out. The resistor dump converter has a low component count and this enables it to achieve a low cost converter. Simulation results show that for the resistor dump converter additional snubbers are required. This leads to an increase in complexity of the controller as more parameters need to be considered. Also, the addition of the passive components of the snubber makes the circuit less reliable and costly. For the purpose of just looking into detail on the behaviour of the converter, it is sufficient to look at the results of the simulation using a static inductor to model the SP-SRM. If cost is to be the priority, the most economical choice must be made but within limits of the application.

Published: July 2019

Detection of asphyxia in infant at an early stage is crucial to reduce the rate of infant morbidity. The information regarding asphyxia can be extracted from infant cry signals using support vector machine (SVM) combined with effective feature selection methods such as principal component analysis (PCA) or orthogonal least square (OLS). The performance of SVM in recognizing infant cry with asphyxia after undergone comprehensive identification of optimal parameters at the feature extraction and classification stages has not been reported. This paper describes the two stages of optimal parameter identification; at Mel-frequency Cepstral coefficient (MFCC) analysis stage, SVM with and without employing the PCA and OLS stages, and the performance of the SVM in recognizing infant cry with asphyxia resulted from all levels of optimal parameters identification. The SVM was first optimized after performing MFCC analysis to find the optimum parameters. Two types of kernels were used, the polynomial and RBF kernels. The subsequent SVM optimizations were conducted after PCA and OLS were employed. In the PCA, the significant features were selected using eigenvalue-one-criterion (EOC), cumulative percentage variance (CPV) and the Scree test (SCREE). The SVM performance was evaluated based on classification accuracy and computation time. The experimental results have shown that the optimized SVM was able to recognize the asphyxiated infant cry with an accuracy of 94.84% and computation time of 1.98s using PCA with EOC and RBF kernel.

Published: July 2019

The anaerobic digestibility of a targeted substrate, measured as methane yield is conducted via biochemical methane potential (BMP). In this study, the batch BMP test was conducted using Automatic Methane Potential Test System (AMPTS II) for 25 days and focused on the methane production from the digestion of food waste (FW, in the form of raw and diluted) at inoculum to substrate ratio (I/S) ratio of 2:0 and under mesophilic temperature. The results showed that solids (TS and VS) concentration reduced significantly due to the dilution. The ultimate methane yields from the digestion of raw FW and diluted FW were 1891.91ml CH4/gVS and 1983.96 ml CH4/gVS respectively. This showed that the dilution significantly improved the methane yield. In addition, the lag phase of the methane yield curve for both BMP tests was less than one (1) day, showing the good biodegradability of FW. The kinetic methane production from laboratory data and Modified Gompertz modelling fitted well. However, the kinetic equation parameters such as Mo, Rm and l from the model were slightly lower based on the observation of the laboratory data.

Published: July 2019

Ultrafine particles (UFPs) emission generated from devices such as printer and photocopy machines are known as potential risks to human health. However, limited information is available to study UFPs exposure generate from larger printer. Thus, this study aimed to determine the concentration of UFPs such as particle number (PN) and lung deposited surface area (LDSA) and investigates the influence of physical environment factors on UFPs in two types of offset lithographic printing rooms such as monochrome and color, across West Malaysia. The measurements of PN and LDSA were taken by using a condensation particle counter and the diffusion charger dosimeter during the printing activities. The mean values for PN and LDSA are 22215 particles/cm3 and 43 µm2/cm3, respectively. The exposure of UFPs from the monochrome room was found to be significantly higher than the color room (p < 0.001 for PN; p < 0.001 for LDSA) due to variation in the ventilation system. Based on correlation analysis, the physical environment factors, such as relative humidity, temperature, and air movement, were observed to influence the UFPs concentrations in printing room. The findings imply that a good selection of the ventilation system is important to minimize worker’s exposure to UFPs emission.

Driver’s Drowsiness Behaviour Detection by Using PSO/DPSO Algorithm for Urban Road System
Authors: Sudhakar J , Srinivasan S 
Published: July 2019

In recent years driver fatigue is one of the major causes for vehicle accidents in the world. A direct way of measuring driver fatigue is measuring the state of the driver drowsiness. So it is very important to detect the drowsiness of the driver to save life and property. In our system, this aims to develop a prototype of drowsiness detection system. This system is a real time system which captures image continuously and measures the state of the eye according to the specified algorithm and gives warning if required. Though there are several methods for measuring the drowsiness but this approach is completely non-intrusive which does not affect the driver in any way, hence giving the exact condition of the driver. For detection of drowsiness the each closure value of eye is considered. So when the closure of eye exceeds a certain amount then the driver is identified to be sleepy. The entire system is implemented using PSO, DPSO and FODPSO algorithm and detection of drowsiness behaviour of driver different eye state level.

Published: July 2019

Aim. Different sports have an ambiguous effect on joint mobility. This article deals with identifying the characteristics of limb joint mobility in skiers and skaters. Materials and methods. 46 athletes (27 skiers and 19 skaters) aged 18–24 participated in the study. All athletes had no complaints regarding their musculoskeletal system. The volume of movements in limb joints was measured with a goniometer. When measuring the angles of flexion and extension of the wrist, as well as plantar flexion and extension, the amplitude was estimated both in active and passive motion. The data obtained were processed with Statistica 10.0 application package and nonparametric statistical methods. Results. In all parameters of the wrist joint (except for passive flexion), statistically significant greater mobility was revealed in skiers (p < 0.0001). The amplitude of active knee flexion was prevalent in skaters (p < 0.0001). Plantar flexion / extension (both active and passive) was also higher in skaters (p < 0.0001) than in skiers. The function of the ankle joint in skaters bears the imprint of a stable motor specialization, which is manifested in the extremely high amplitude of foot extension. In both groups, the angle of wrist flexion, the angle of retraction in the hip joint and the angle of plantar flexion exceeded the norms. This is because these joints are the most used both in skiers and skaters. Conclusions. The features of joint mobility are associated with specific athletic shoes and locomotor specialization for skiers and skaters. Skiers demonstrate the increased mobility of wrist joints, while skaters possess the increased mobility of the knee and ankle.

Aim. The article deals with studying the features of sensorimotor integration and movement coordination in elite hockey players aged 15–16. Materials and methods. A prospective longitudinal study was performed in the competitive phase of preparation. Hockey players aged 15–16 participated in the study (n = 36; attackers and defenders). The control group consisted of 16-year-old students from the college of physical education (n = 15). We performed an examination with the help of NS-PsychoTest software and hardware equipment (Russia, Neurosoft). We assessed the functional status of cortical centers of the nervous system, as well as the speed and accuracy of simple and complex eye-motor reactions. We determined the level of sensorimotor and voluntary movement coordination with the help of tremorometry. Results. Compared to peers, hockey players aged 15–16 possess a higher level of functional indicators under interference conditions (p < 0.05 in all cases) and a better indicator of the concentration of excitation (p < 0.001). Hockey players are characterized by a better speed and accuracy of reaction under interference conditions (p < 0.001 in all cases) and better reaction to a moving object (p < 0.05 in all cases). Compared to peers not-involved in sports, elite hockey players aged 15–16 are characterized by a higher level of voluntary movement coordination with a static form of muscle contraction (p < 0.01). Conclusion. The specific conditions of the competitive activity of hockey players aged 15–16 contribute to an increase in the efficiency of the central nervous system under interference conditions by improving the concentration of excitation. Sensorimotor integration of the players of this age is also distinguished by better predictive accuracy in reactions to a moving object. The parietal-premotor level of movement regulation in hockey players develops in accordance with age-related features, while specific physical loads influence the improvement of voluntary movement coordination with a static form of muscle contraction.

Aim. The article deals with identifying the informative morphological criteria of selection in judo at the stage of athletic performance improvement. Materials and methods. We measured 42 athletes engaged in judo (body weight 66–73 kg, 18–25 years old, Candidate of Master of Sport or Master of Sport) by using complex anthropometric and somatometric techniques. For quickly trained athletes it took not more than 6 years for achieving the rank of Candidate of Master of Sport and not more than 8 years for achieving the rank of Master of Sport. Slowly trained athletes obtained the same rank of Candidate of Master of Sport for 7–9 years and that of Master of Sport for 9–11 years. Results. In both quickly and slowly trained athletes we revealed significant differences in partial, circumference, and transverse body size, body composition, and somatotype. We found out that the morphogenetic markers of fast trainability in judo include the following parameters: high values of humerus lengths (34.4 ± 0.23 cm) and thorax circumference (98.2 ± 1.68 cm), low content of adipose tissue (8.1 ± 0.3 %), and a high value of mesomorphy (5.8 ± 0.25 points). Conclusion. The results obtained allowed us to most effectively carry out the selection at the stage of athletic performance improvement and to predict the success of competitive activities in judo.

Published: July 2019

Aim. The article deals with justifying the application of the method for improving prick accuracy in young fencers during their technical and tactical preparation. Materials and methods. 30 beginners in fencing aged 8-9 participated in the pedagogical experiment. The experiment consisted of recording video and making graphical notes about the preferable actions of each athlete. Using special protocols, we registered the data obtained from video recordings where the pricks were regarded as a result of the attack actions described with special symbols. Results. The attack and counter-attack actions registered in 2017–2018, as well as their efficiency, signi­ficantly increased. This proves the increased rationality of the actions for preparing attacks and counter-attacks as their efficiency increased with a minimum volume. We revealed that there were statistically significant changes (p < 0.05) in prick accuracy. The initial average and low levels of prick efficiency turned into above average and high levels after the experiment. Conclusion. The tests demonstrated that prick performance, as a three-stage system of movements (start, hit the target, finish) for the direct defeat of a rival with the help of parrying and lunging, allows improving the efficiency of attacks in young fencers.
