Published: June 2019

Abstract
The growing demands for the training of students and the need for continuous improvement of the quality of university education make it necessary to find and apply more effective educational technologies and practices based on the correlation of teaching with the student’s profile and his/her individual Learning Style. This article discusses the topic of relevance of personalized e-learning. It describes Learning Styles and looks at the Felder– Silverman model in more detail. The article contains the results of student surveys on the basis of which the interrelation between the Index of Learning Styles and academic performance is analysed. The relation between performance and learning styles according to the Felder-Silverman Learning Style Model is shown: in some specialties, students with sequential learning style have higher academic performance than students with global learning style, as well as students with mild learning style preferences on the Activist/Reflector dimension.
Assumptions for the Fiber Movement Model in the Drawing Mechanism Field in Modified Regulation Systems
Authors: Idzik Marek 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The paper presents assumptions for the fiber movement model in the drawing mechanism field, aiming at establishing a regulation equation with a modified operation algorithm of the short-term draft regulator of slivers made of staple fibers. The model takes into account the sliver retardation phenomena and makes it possible to increase the evenness of slivers feeding successive machines in the technological process. As a result of this, the evenness of yarn will be increased contributing to an improvement in the quality of flat textile fabrics. This model, despite simplifying assumptions, sufficiently precisely presents the phenomenon of reducing the effect of drawing waves on the distribution of the linear mass of the fiber stream.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
In this study, polypropylene meltblown nonwoven fabrics with different structure parameters such as fiber diameter, pore size, and areal density were prepared by the industrial production line. The morphology of meltblown nonwoven fibers was evaluated by using scanning electron microscope, and the diameter of fibers was analyzed by using image-pro plus software from at least 200 measurements. The pore size of nonwoven fabric was characterized by a CFP-1500AE type pore size analyzer. The filtration efficiency and pressure drop were evaluated by TSI8130 automatic filter. The results showed that the pressure drop of nonwoven fabrics decreased with the increase in pore size; the filtration efficiency and the pressure drop had a positive correlation with the areal density. However, when the areal density is in the range of 27–29 g/m2, both filtration efficiency and pressure drop decreased with the increase of areal density; when the areal density was kept constant, the filtration efficiency decreased as the pore size decreased; when the pore size of the meltblown nonwoven fabric is less than 17 μm, the filtration efficiency increased as the pore diameter decreased; when the pore diameter of the nonwoven fabric is larger than 17 μm. In a wide range, the pressure drop decreased as the fiber diameter decreased.
On Phenomenal Functionalism about the Properties of Virtual and Non-virtual Objects
Authors: Ney Alyssa 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
According to phenomenal functionalism, whether some object or event has a given property is determined by the kinds of sensory experiences such objects or events typically cause in normal perceivers in normal viewing conditions. This paper challenges this position and, more specifically, David Chalmers’s use of it in arguing for what he calls virtual realism.
The Transition into Virtual Reality
Authors: Silcox Mark 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
In “The Virtual and the Real,” David Chalmers argues that there is an epistemic and ontological parity between VR and ordinary reality. My argument here is that, whatever the plausibility of these claims, they provide no basis for supposing that there is a similar parity of value. Careful reflection upon certain aspects of the transition that individuals make from interacting with real-world, physical environments to interacting with VR provides a basis for thinking that, to the extent that there are good reasons to deny the reality of virtual objects, there are also reasons to place a correspondingly higher value upon the experience of interacting with a VR environment. Chalmers’ assumption to the contrary arises from a subtle misrepresentation of how the phenomenon of cognitive penetration works in the perception of virtual objects, and from an unwillingness to acknowledge how our attitudes toward virtual environments are conditioned by the values we adopt when engaged in gameplay.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
Land use changes are local phenomena with global impact. They have an impact in a cumulative sense on biodiversity or soil degradation. This study aimed to examine the effects of different land-uses (arable land, permanent grasslands, abandoned grasslands, forest land) on the selected biotic and abiotic soil parameters in the Slovak mountain study sites Liptovská Teplička and Tajov. Biotic (microbial community structure, earthworm number and fresh body biomass, arthropod number and fresh body biomass), and abiotic chemical soil parameters (pH, total organic carbon, total nitrogen, nutrients) were measured. According to MALDI-TOF (Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight), several bacterial strains were identified. Mutual relations between soil microorganisms and soil biotic and abiotic properties determined by different land uses were analysed. Microbial response expressed as average well-colour development (AWCD) values indicated relations between higher microbial diversity and higher nutrient availability at both study sites. In the comparison of land use types, permanent grasslands (PG) showed the lowest microbial activity in the depth of 0–0.1 m. But in the depth of 0.2-0.3 m in PG of both study sites, the higher microbial activity was recorded compared to the depth of 0-0.1 m. In addition, lower AWCD values in PG were in line with the lower available P and K content but higher earthworm density and biomass.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
This article is devoted to works on using natural user interfaces (NUI) in computer support systems of aircraft service. The concept of such interfaces involves the usage in human-machine communication the same measures as in the communication between people, that is sound or gesture. In the case of gesture communication, it is indispensable to adopt methods related to computer vision algorithms. One of them is a three-dimensional reconstruction of objects based on processing techniques of a pair of two-dimensional images. The above method and the results of its application were presented to obtain a three-dimensional cloud of points describing the hand shape. The obtained software will constitute an element of gesture classifier based on the analysis of the spatial location of the acquired points of the cloud.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
The paper describes operational efficiency research of city buses from two manufacturers during the 6 years of operation under real conditions. The presented operational efficiency assessment model includes unplanned incidental repairs costs, downtime costs, as well as the likelihood of losing customer-passenger’s trust. The results of the efficiency calculations were used to estimate the expected costs of buses’ incapacity risk. It has been demonstrated that the operational efficiency and incapacity risk costs can be a criterion for the optimal period of operation, as well as the criterion of comparison of bus makes in a transport company.
Identifying the Reference Time for Determining the Compressive Strength of Concrete Containing Different Types of Cements
Authors: Ionescu Anca , Apostu Adelina , Georgescu Dan Paul 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The compressive strength of the concrete measured at 28 days is the criterion for assessing the concrete class, and these values will be acceptable precise indications for other physical and mechanical characteristics of the concrete. In addition to the factors the compressive strength of concrete varies on (such as: the characteristics and proportion of constituents, the placement conditions and subsequent treatment and testing conditions), the concrete class should also depend on the type of cement contained and the concrete strength evolution over time. Due to the fact that concretes with composite cements have a slower evolution of compressive strength and a significant strength increase after 28 days, concretes with different types of cements and mineral admixtures were tested for compression after 28 days in order to determine the reference time for such tests – and thus the concrete’s class.
“Family Silver” or Artefacts (in) Memories of Forcibly Displaced Germans
Authors: Kreisslová Sandra , Nosková Jana 
Published: June 2019

AbstractThe study deals with the transmission of family memory in three three-generation families of Germans forcibly displaced from Czechoslovakia, in which the oldest generation, the so-called generation of experience, actually experienced the migration movement after the end of World War II. In the study, the family is seen as a specific social framework in which the past is retrieved. Generations are characterized in a biological sequence, with only the oldest “generation of experience” defined by Karl Mannheim. The research of generational family memory focuses on the actor’s reception through an analysis and interpretation of narrative and oral-history interviews with representatives of generations while exploring the way family memory is mediated. Specifically, the authors inquire into the role the memory media play in their materialised form, i.e. artefacts that act as an impulse and source of remembrance narrative, in the process of generational transmission of memories in families. The focus here is on remembrance narratives related to the forced displacement, which thematise material artefacts, with the focus being not only on what artefacts there are in connection with the recollection of this historical process and what stories are related to them, but also the effort to uncover the meaning and the function of these artefacts during family remembrance.

ABSTRACTBackground: High duration of training performed by swimmers with dominant freestyle stroke, resulted in significant number of shoulder rotation movement. The presence of continous movement that occurs in the shoulder of swimmers can cause the risk of shoulder injury, known as swimmer’s shoulder. The presence of shoulder injuries among swimmers resulting a decrease in functional ability on the shoulder of swimmers. The training of shoulder girdle dynamic stabilization and prone scapular stabilization is a training that can be used to improve the functional ability among swimmers shoulders. Method: This study used randomized pre test and post test control group design. This study performed on 20 swimmers that diagnosed of swimmer shoulder injury which divided into 2 groups. Treatment Group was given shoulder girdle dynamic stabilization and Control Group was given prone scapular stabilization training. Shoulder functional ability was measured using SPADI and analized on each group. Result: This research showed that every functional training that was given to each sample groups giving an effect to improving shoulder functional ability post swimmer’s shoulder injury among swimmers. There are significant alteration in Treatment Group and Control Group from pre to post test, both was obtained (p< 0.001). There is significant difference from post test between Treatment Group and Control Group, came with (p=0.001). Conclusion: Shoulder girdle dynamic stabilization better than prone scapular stabilization training in improving the functional ability of the shoulder post swimmer shoulder injury among freestyle stroke swimmer athlete in West Kalimantan.

<p>Now more and more cancers are being diagnosed in Nepal. But it is hard to assess the burden of cancer in national context based on available data. The available hospital based information neither shows the magnitude of the problem nor there has been any community-based study in the past. First time in Nepal population based Cancer registry (PBCR) was started in 15 districts of different geographical region i.e. Himal, Pahad, Tarai, which covered the 25.8% of total population of the nation. Therefore, outcome of this study can be used to infer an overall situation of cancer in Nepal.</p> <p>In the year 2013-14, cancer cases were reported from data source institutions for the process of population based cancer registration. Among them the cases were verified by name, age, sex and disease i.e. topography/morphology. Cases were collected</p> <p>from projected areas and multiple entry were excluded from data base and total 5089 (2469+2620) cases were analyzed for the purpose. The mean age at diagnosis in 2013 was 53.9 years and 53.2 years in 2014, whereas; mean age in average for 2013-14 was 53.6 years.</p> <p> In the year 2013, the most frequent form of cancer for both sexes was bronchus & lung 15.7%, followed by cervix uteri 11.0%, and breast 7.6%. Among the female cases cervix uteri cancer 20.0% was the most frequent, followed by breast 13.5% and bronchus & lung cancer 12.9%. Similarly, bronchus & lung cancer 15.8% was the most common cancer among males, followed by stomach 6.1% and larynx cancer 4.3%. The most prevalent age group in male 70-74 years 19.9%, while in female it was in same age group 70-74 years 13.4%. </p> <p>In the year 2014, the leading sites of cancer for both sexes was bronchus & lung 13.7%, followed by cervix uteri 10.5%, and breast 9.5%. Among the female cases cervix uteri cancer 18.0% was the most frequent, followed by breast 15.5% and bronchus & lung cancer 11.8%. Similarly, bronchus & lung cancer 16.5% was the most common cancer among males, followed by stomach 7.4% and larynx cancer 5.3%. The most prevalent age group in male 70-74 years 11.3%, while in female it was in same age group 60-64 years 12.3%. The present data provide population based cancer burden in Nepal. According to findings, cancer of bronchus& lung was the most common topography of cancer followed by cervix uteri and breast for both sex in 2013-14.</p>
