The Hamiltonian Field Theory of the Von Mises Wave Equation: Analytical and Computational Issues
Authors: Cherubini Christian , Filippi Simonetta 
Published: March 2016

AbstractThe Von Mises quasi-linear second order wave equation, which completely describes an irrotational, compressible and barotropic classical perfect fluid, can be derived from a nontrivial least action principle for the velocity scalar potential only, in contrast to existing analog formulations which are expressed in terms of coupled density and velocity fields. In this article, the classicalHamiltonian field theory specifically associated to such an equation is developed in the polytropic case and numerically verified in a simplified situation. The existence of such a mathematical structure suggests new theoretical schemes possibly useful for performing numerical integrations of fluid dynamical equations. Moreover it justifies possible new functional forms for Lagrangian densities and associated Hamiltonian functions in other theoretical classical physics contexts.
Česko-německé kontakty ve světle antroponymie českých zemí
Authors: Pleskalová Jana 
Published: March 2016

Diachronní pohled na česko-německé vztahy s ohledem na antroponymii českých zemí odhalil jejich nejzávažnější důsledky ve sféře vlastních jmen osobních. 1) Byl to především společný základní repertoár křestních jmen, který se vytvářel v těsném kontaktu česky mluvících obyvatel s německými příchozími a pod sjednocujícím vlivem římskokatolické církve. V něm zaujímala významné místo jména církevní (např. Jan/Johannes/Johann, Nicolaus/Mikuláš, Petr/Peter/Petrus, Margaretha/Markéta, Katharina/Kateřina) a jména německá (Henricus/Heinrich, Albertus/Albert/Albrecht, Ulricus/Ulrich), u česky mluvících obyvatel užívaná ve větší míře jen do konce 18. stol. Naopak v německém prostředí byla akceptována – ovšem jen v malé míře – nejvýznamnější církevní jména česká (Václav/Wenzel, Ludmila, Vojtěch). 2. Vyspělejší způsob identifikace osoby pomocí dvoučlenného jména (křestní jméno + příjmí, později dědičné příjmení – Johannes Schwarz), který preferovalo německy mluvící obyvatelstvo českých zemí již od 14. stol., ovlivnil a zároveň uspíšil zavádění dvoujmennosti v českém prostředí (Jan Kohout), ovšem jen u mužských zástupců rodiny. – Tyto těsné českoněmecké kontakty skončily po druhé světové válce v r. 1945 vyhoštěním Němců z České republiky. Od té doby jsou v ČR křestní jména německého původu spíše ojedinělá, udržují se většinou jen rodinnou tradicí (otec Karel, syn Karel, podobně Jindřich, Oldřich a další).
Odslik hrvatsko-mađarskih dodira u hrvatskim prezimenima
Authors: Frančić Anđela 
Published: March 2016

U uvodnome dijelu rada autorica se kratko osvrće na povijest hrvatskih prezimena te na hrvatsko-mađarske jezične dodire i njihovo proučavanje. Pretkazivi rezultat višestoljetnoga državnog zajedništva Hrvata i Mađara jesu i hungarizmi, od kojih je samo manji dio sastavnica leksika hrvatskoga standardnog jezika (npr. bunda, cikla, cipela, čipka, čopor, karika, kočija, korov, lopov, palačinka, šator, soba). O hrvatsko-mađarskim dodirima na svoj specifičan način svjedoči i hrvatska onimija (npr. ojkonimi Madžarevo, Banfi, Daruvar, Varaždin, Laslovo, Farkaševac). Dio onimijske ukupnosti jesu i prezimena temeljena na mađarskim elementima (npr. Balog, Gazdić, Janušić, Kanižaj, Matjašec, Nagy, Palfi, Pišpek, Pongračić, Sabolčec, Vargek). Središnji je dio rada motivacijsko-semantička i tvorbena klasifikacija u hrvatskome prezimenskom fondu zasvjedočenih prezimena s mađarskim elementima popraćena odabranim primjerima. Uzimajući u obzir stupanj prilagođenosti u prezime ugrađenih mađarskih leksema hrvatskomu jeziku, tvorbenu strukturu tih prezimena, potvrđenost leksika mađarskoga podrijetla u hrvatskoj povijesnoj leksikografiji i sadašnjim hrvatskim govorima – pretpostavlja se da su neka na hungarizmima temeljena prezimena nastala u Hrvatskoj, a neka su u različitim razdobljima unesena u hrvatski prezimenik doseobom svojih nositelja. U zaključnome se dijelu rada, uz ostalo, ističe potreba daljnjega popisivanja i istraživanja hungarizama u hrvatskim nestandardnojezičnim govorima te u svekolikome imenskom mozaiku.
Innovation Practices in Saudi Arabian Businesses

<p>In today’s business “Innovation” is a buzzword; business people can’t live without it. Innovation management as such has recently gained much attention from the academic researchers, industry and the governments of the different countries; because of its functionality in sustaining the organizations, its growth as well to enjoy a competitive edge.</p><p>The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia even today is looked upon as a mere crude oil supplier by the outside world. Saudi Arabia made significant changes in its development in all the fields including business. The country now made a mark as one of the emerging and fast developing nations in the world.</p><p>The country which has been very popular in mere trade and which is striving to establish its stance in business would be good example for academic interest to investigate empirically as to what type of practices of innovation exists in its all legal forms of business organizations of Saudi Arabia and also to have an over view of innovation scenario in Saudi Arabia businesses.</p><p>The Research carried on through an empirical study designed for the purpose. One hundred business organization of all types (Eg: Public, Private, Semi-government, Partnership firms, etc.) were chosen randomly. From each organization two respondents were chosen totaling to the sample size of two hundred.</p><p>Since the main objective of the research is to find the practices of innovation in Saudi Arabian business organizations a few practices were asked to the respondents through the structured questionnaire to know the level of perceptions of the respondents on a Likert’s five point scale. At the outset the results are promising in Saudi Arabia, the business organizations are paving the way for innovation in their businesses. Within the study when compared with the practices it is found that practices touching upon teams and team work are measuring low. Regarding the types of innovation there is mixed results.</p><p>Probably this is the first empirical study in Saudi Arabia which has made an attempt to enquire into innovation practices through an exhaustive but a simple study.</p><p> </p>

Back home? Changes in the housing situations after release
Although good and stable housing is one of the requirements for successful reintegration, research on the relation between imprisonment and housing is scarce. This study gains insight into the housing situation of Dutch prisoners before and after their incarceration. Data are used from 886 male Prison Project participants, who were interviewed both during and six months after detention. Changes in housing appear to be common; 52 percent of the prisoners has a different housing situation after release (compared to before detention). Changes in housing remain frequent during the six months post-release. The importance of good aftercare in the transition from prison to stable housing is underlined by these results.
Josep Maria Sostres: práctica, reflexión y docencia de la arquitectura
Authors: García-Escudero Daniel , Bardí Milà Berta 
Published: March 2016

El pasado 15 de mayo de 2015 se cumplía el centenario del nacimiento Josep Maria Sostres. Fue un profesor de historia del arte y la arquitectura, un crítico informado y lúcido, un arquitecto abnegado y cuidadoso. Sus proyectos partían de unos depurados principios de clara vocación didáctica. A partir de esos principios, Sostres hablaba de sus obras con distancia y precisión, convirtiéndolas en herramientas de estudio y aprendizaje, en ejemplos de un conocimiento acumulativo fruto de la tradición moderna. Con motivo de la efeméride, se acaba de publicar el libro Josep Maria Sostres: Centenario, unos estudios críticos en torno a su figura, pensamiento y obra. Desde diversos ángulos, el libro pretende colaborar en la construcción de un conocimiento más completo de un arquitecto que hoy en día continúa siendo marginal. Un arquitecto que frente a los discursos dominantes de la transversalidad, la creatividad y la innovación, reivindicaba que la única especialidad original del arquitecto es la Arquitectura.
On the 15th May of 2015 the birth centenary of Josep Maria Sostres was fulfilled. He was a professor of history art and architecture, and informed and lucid critical, an unselfish and careful architect. His projects where based on refined notions with a clear didactic vocation. From these principles, Sostres talked of his work with distance and accuracy, and he made them tools of studying and learning, made them examples of an accumulative knowledge of the modern tradition. To mark the anniversary, the book Josep Maria Sostres: centenario has just been published, with some critical studies about his figure, his thought and his work. From various angles, the book aims to build a more complete knowledge of an architect today remains marginal. An architect who was against dominant discourses of transversality, creativity and innovation, he claimed that the only original speciality of the architect is Architecture.
Las voces y los ecos: sobre música y arquitectura
Authors: Arnau Joaquín 
Published: March 2016

La vida humana, a solas o en sociedad, se desenvuelve en un rumor permanente: la vida “suena”. Y la arquitectura, a su servicio, “resuena” con ella. Acomodar la resonancia de un recinto cualquiera a los rumores propios de sus habitantes en el ejercicio de sus tareas es un principio de buena habitación que al arquitecto importa observar. La referencia a la música, y a los espacios que a ella se destinan, contribuye en este sentido a afinar nuestra sensibilidad al respecto. Proponemos, pues, en este artículo entender la arquitectura como una “segunda” caja de resonancia, semejante en su función a la de un instrumento, y que “atempera” cada espacio habitable, dotándolo en su caso de la acústica que le conviene. Lo que sin duda ha de redundar en el bienestar obtenido.
Human life, on its own or in society, develops amidst a permanent murmur: life “sounds”. And architecture at its service, “resonates” with it. Accommodating the resonance of any given space to the murmurs of its inhabitants in the exercise of their activities is a principle of proper inhabiting that architects are to observe. The reference to music and the spaces intended for it, contributes in this sense to refine our sensitivity in this regard. Thus, in this article, we suggest to understand architecture as a “second” resonance box, similar in its function to that of an instrument, and which tempers each habitable space, providing the appropriate acoustics, which will undoubtedly reflect in the resulting comfort.
Un recorrido por los planos de suelo miesianos
Authors: Ros Ballesteros Jordi 
Published: March 2016

A lo largo de su trayectoria profesional Mies mantuvo una estricta observancia en relación a los dos planos horizontales que acotaron sistemáticamente su arquitectura, el del suelo y el de la cubierta, al punto de que sus atributos formales así como la interrelación que establecen definen en gran medida su arquitectura. El plano de la cubierta ha sido el que ha suscitado un mayor análisis y reconocimiento mientras que el otro plano horizontal, el del suelo, ha sido significativamente menos explorado a pesar de su indiscutiblemente relevancia.
En la arquitectura de Mies, la plataforma es sistemáticamente utilizada como un espacio de mediación con el lugar y, a su vez, como espacio de transición desde el que construir el sistema de aproximación a su arquitectura.
Plataforma y acceso constituyen un binomio inseparable, prevalente en la construcción de las plantas bajas de su arquitectura. La plataforma se convierte, por tanto, en el umbral de su arquitectura.
Throughout his professional career Mies maintained a strict observance regarding the two horizontal planes which systematically delimited his architecture, the ground level and the roof. The roof plane has raised more analysis and recognition, while the other horizontal plane, the ground level, has been significantly less explored despite his indisputable relevance .
In Mies architecture's the platform is systematically used
as a mediation space, interacting with the site and defining the edge of the project and, as a transition space, building the visual approach system of the compound.
Ritmos a ras de suelo
Authors: Gómez Escoda Eulalia Maria 
Published: March 2016

A través de una calle recta dentro de la malla ortogonal como la que ilustra el artículo se puede explicar cómo las tiendas que ocupan las plantas bajas modifican constantemente el aspecto y su relación con la calle y caracterizan el paisaje a ras de suelo, pese a la aparente alineación de fachadas y a la permanencia en la medida del parcelario. Las intervenciones de adición, sustracción y modificación son intercambiables de un local a otro: cada tienda actúa para diferenciarse de las de al lado y así conseguir captar la atención de los paseantes, y lo hace mediante estrategias que contribuyen a hacer que dentro y fuera se entrelacen y tomen las funciones los unos de los otros, colonizando el espacio urbano, pero también ensanchando la calle y convirtiendo el comercio en espacio colectivo.
A straight street within the orthogonal grid like the one illustrating this article is useful to express how the stores occupying the ground level are constantly modifying their aspect and their relationship with the street. The operations of addition, subtraction and modification are interchangeab le from one place to another. Each store tries to be different from the one next to it and thus to capture the attention of passersby, doing so through strategies contributing to weave the inside and the outside together; colonizing the urban space, but also widening the street and transforming the commercial activity into a collective space.

Cuadernos de faltriquera: recorridos perceptivos de un mundo íntimo: dibujos de Manolo Baquero
Authors: Baquero Iñaki 
Published: March 2016

La exposición que se desarrolló en el COAA de Zaragoza, durante el mes de octubre, se entiende como un pequeño resumen de la secuencia “análisis, síntesis, dibujo” que Manolo Baquero habrá repetido unas 15.000 veces, en los últimos 40 años.
En ella se exponían unos documentos difíciles de calificar. El artista los llama “cuadernos de faltriquera”. Podemos tener la tentación de compararlos a los cuadernos de viaje a Oriente de LeCorbusier pero, a pesar de que también son relatos de viaje, los de Manolo, son diferentes. Posiblemente están más cercanos a unas memorias dibujadas y, por qué no, también escritas… Es determinante para entenderlos como los documentos que relatan una vida, que los vemos llenos de recuerdos de los lugares visitados y de anotaciones de las experiencias vividas en el momento de la producción pictórica -…que frío!!!- o de reflexiones personales acerca de un momento emocional.
The exhibition held at Zaragoza 's COAA in the month of October is understood as a brief summary of the sequence "analysis, synthesis , sketch" that Manolo Baquero has probably carried out over 15.000 times throughout the last 40 years .
The documents exhibited are difficult to describe . The artist calls them "pocket journals ". One might be tempted to compare them to Le Corbusier's journals
during his travels to the East, but, although they are both travel journals, the ones by Manolo are different. They
are probably closer to sketched -and , why not, also written- memoirs ... lt is essenti I to understand them as documents that record a lite, that we see full of memories from the places visited and notes about the experiences lived at the moment of the pictorial production- ... so
cold!!!- or of personal reflections on an emotional moment.

Authors: Olek Michael J 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
A review article on multiple sclerosis (MS) is difficult because the pace of current research in the evaluation and treatment of the disease has acceleratedgreatly in the past 5 years. The rapidly expanding field of immunology together with the plethora of new drug trials makes the task of including all relevantmaterial impossible. This first of a two-part article will include several sections on MS, including an overview, pathophysiology, diagnostic evaluation, and clinical parameters. The second part, to appear in the December issue, will look at treatment strategies and future directions.
Pharmacologic management of diabetes mellitus
Authors: Face Robert Mozersky, P 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
Recently, the number of agents to treat type 2 diabetes has increased markedly. In the past, the only agents practitioners had available to treat patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were insulin and sulfonylureas. Today, three additional classes of agents with a total of six new drugs are available: acarbose, migital, repaglinide,metformin hydrochloride, troglitazone, and rosiglitazone. In the not-too-distant future, several other agents will be available for treating patients with diabetes. These new agents will allow physicians to control their diabetic patients' blood sugar levels without the need for insulin injections. This article reviews the new agents and provides practical suggestions regarding their use as monotherapy or in combination therapy.
Growth process of hydrogenated amorphous carbon films synthesized by atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced CVD using nitrogen and helium as a dilution gas
Authors: Mori Takanori , Sakurai Takachika , Sato Taiki , Shirakura Akira , Suzuki Tetsuya 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
Hydrogenated amorphous carbon films with various thicknesses were synthesized by dielectric barrier discharge-based plasma deposition under atmospheric pressure diluted with nitrogen (N2) and helium (He) at various pulse frequencies. The C2H2/N2 film showed cauliflower-like-particles that grew bigger with the increase in film’s thickness. At 5 kHz, the film with a thickness of 2.7 µm and smooth surface was synthesized. On the other hand, the films synthesized from C2H2/He had a smooth surface and was densely packed with domed particles. The domed particles extended with the increase in the film thickness, enabling it to grow successfully to 37 µm with a smooth surface.
On the limits of applicability of drift-diffusion based hot carrier degradation modeling
Authors: Jech Markus , Sharma Prateek , Tyaginov Stanislav , Rudolf Florian , Grasser Tibor 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
We study the limits of the applicability of a drift-diffusion (DD) based model for hot-carrier degradation (HCD). In this approach the rigorous but computationally expensive solution of the Boltzmann transport equation is replaced by an analytic expression for the carrier energy distribution function. On the one hand, we already showed that the simplified version of our HCD model is quite successful for LDMOS devices. On the other hand, hot carrier degradation models based on the drift-diffusion and energy transport schemes were shown to fail for planar MOSFETs with gate lengths of 0.5–2.0 µm. To investigate the limits of validity of the DD-based HCD model, we use planar nMOSFETs of an identical topology but with different gate lengths of 2.0, 1.5, and 1.0 µm. We show that, although the model is able to adequately represent the linear and saturation drain current changes in the 2.0 µm transistor, it starts to fail for gate lengths shorter than 1.5 µm and becomes completely inadequate for the 1.0 µm device.
High speed vision processor with reconfigurable processing element array based on full-custom distributed memory
Authors: Chen Zhe , Yang Jie , Shi Cong , Qin Qi , Liu Liyuan , Wu Nanjian 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
In this paper, a hybrid vision processor based on a compact full-custom distributed memory for near-sensor high-speed image processing is proposed. The proposed processor consists of a reconfigurable processing element (PE) array, a row processor (RP) array, and a dual-core microprocessor. The PE array includes two-dimensional processing elements with a compact full-custom distributed memory. It supports real-time reconfiguration between the PE array and the self-organized map (SOM) neural network. The vision processor is fabricated using a 0.18 µm CMOS technology. The circuit area of the distributed memory is reduced markedly into 1/3 of that of the conventional memory so that the circuit area of the vision processor is reduced by 44.2%. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed design achieves correct functions.
