Sexualité, échange de pouvoir et science-fiction : Une étude SMiotique de quelques textes de science-fiction québécoise
Authors: Bérard Sylvie 
Published: August 2017

Cet article s’attarde à trois textes de science-fiction québécoise contemporaine mettant en scène une interaction
sadomasochiste: « La carte du tendre » d’Élisabeth Vonarburg, Lame d’Esther Rochon et La mue de
l'hermaphrodite de Karoline Georges. Combinant entre autres l’analyse du discours narratif, les théories
psychanalytiques, et l’étude de la performance, il s’intéresse non seulement à ce que la science-fiction nous dit de
la sexualité et du sadomasochisme, mais il tente de cerner ce que le sadomasochisme, en tant que cadre
d’analyse, peut nous apprendre à propos de l’écriture de science-fiction et, pourquoi pas, à propos de l’écriture en
général.
Unsteady Convective Diffusion with Interphase Mass Transfer in Casson Liquid
Authors: Roy Ashis Kumar , Saha Apu Kumar , Debnath Sudip 
Published: August 2017

This study aims to examine the dispersion of a passive contaminant of solute released in Casson liquid flow through a tube. The wall of the tube is taken to be chemically active where the flow is driven by the constant pressure gradient. To evaluate the transport coefficients, Aris-Barton’s Moment technique is considered, a finite difference implicit scheme is adopted to handle the differential equation arises in moment methodology. Also to confirm the results obtained by Aris-Barton’s method, the generalized dispersion model has been applied. Unlike the previous studies on dispersion in Casson liquid, the time-dependent behavior of the transport coefficients has been established. Some significant observations have been founded, e.g. exchange coefficient is independent of yield stress while the convection coefficient and dispersion coefficient are inversely proportional to yield stress. Results reveal that transport coefficients are enormously affected by wall absorption.
Adrenal Myelolipoma Diagnosed in a 72-Year-Old Patient with Abdominal Pain
Authors: Franca Tiago Galan de , Rocha Gabriela Ferreira , Calixto Sheyla Cristina De Souza 
Published: August 2017

BACKGROUND: Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare benign tumor formed by hematopoietic tissue and mature adipose tissue. Usually is insidious and found occasionally on image exams, therefore is also called incidentaloma. Image studies and anatomopathological exam are important to define the diagnosis of adrenal myelolipoma. This study’s objective was to report the case of this rare adrenal tumor and its main diagnostic means.
CASE: It was report case about a 72-year-old patient, whose initial symptom was diffuse abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, diagnosed with adrenal myelolipoma after image studies even in the absence of laboratory abnormalities, and submitted at a private hospital at Belém-PA.
CONCLUSIONS: The adrenal myelolipoma, due its usual asymptomatic characteristics or its no-specifics symptoms, requires a meticulous analysis concerning both diagnosis and treatment. Thus, our case report corroborates the importance of the image studies in front of an obscure and difficult diagnosis, especially the computed tomography, and anatomopathological evaluation, since they are essential to the best decision making and consequently a better prognosis of the patient.
Preliminary Evidence for a Virial Shock around the Coma Galaxy Cluster
Authors: Keshet Uri , Kushnir Doron , Loeb Abraham , Waxman Eli 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
Galaxy clusters, the largest gravitationally bound objects in the universe, are thought to grow by accreting mass from their surroundings through large-scale virial shocks. Due to electron acceleration in such a shock, it should appear as a γ-ray, hard X-ray, and radio ring, elongated toward the large-scale filaments feeding the cluster, coincident with a cutoff in the thermal Sunyaev–Zel’dovich (SZ) signal. However, no such signature was found until now, and the very existence of cluster virial shocks has remained a theory. We find preliminary evidence for a large γ-ray ring of

minor axis around the Coma cluster, elongated toward the large-scale filament connecting Coma and Abell 1367, detected at the nominal

confidence level (

using control signal simulations). The γ-ray ring correlates both with a synchrotron signal and with the SZ cutoff, but not with Galactic tracers. The γ-ray and radio signatures agree with analytic and numerical predictions if the shock deposits

of the thermal energy in relativistic electrons over a Hubble time and

in magnetic fields. The implied inverse Compton and synchrotron cumulative emission from similar shocks can contribute significantly to the diffuse extragalactic γ-ray and low-frequency radio backgrounds. Our results, if confirmed, reveal the prolate structure of the hot gas in Coma, the feeding pattern of the cluster, and properties of the surrounding large-scale voids and filaments. The anticipated detection of such shocks around other clusters would provide a powerful new cosmological probe.
Fast Magnetic Reconnection: “Ideal” Tearing and the Hall Effect
Authors: Pucci Fulvia , Velli Marco , Tenerani Anna 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
One of the main questions in magnetic reconnection is the origin of triggering behavior with on/off properties that, once it is activated, accounts for the fast magnetic energy conversion to kinetic and thermal energies at the heart of explosive events in astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. Over the past decade, progress has been made on the initiation of fast reconnection via the plasmoid instability and what has been called “ideal” tearing, which sets in once current sheets thin to a critical inverse aspect ratio

. As shown by Pucci & Velli, at

, the timescale for the instability to develop becomes of the order of the Alfvén time and independent of the Lundquist number (here defined in terms of current sheet length L). However, given the large values of S in natural plasmas, this transition might occur for thicknesses of the inner resistive singular layer that are comparable to the ion inertial length d

i
. When this occurs, Hall currents produce a three-dimensional quadrupole structure of the magnetic field, and the dispersive waves introduced by the Hall effect accelerate the instability. Here we present a linear study showing how the “ideal” tearing mode critical aspect ratio is modified when Hall effects are taken into account, including more general scaling laws of the growth rates in terms of sheet inverse aspect ratio: the critical inverse aspect ratio is amended to

, at which point the instability growth rate becomes Alfvénic and does not depend on either of the (small) parameters

. We discuss the implications of this generalized triggering aspect ratio for recently developed phase diagrams of magnetic reconnection.
Complex Network for Solar Active Regions
Authors: Daei Farhad , Safari Hossein , Dadashi Neda 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
In this paper we developed a complex network of solar active regions (ARs) to study various local and global properties of the network. The values of the Hurst exponent (0.8–0.9) were evaluated by both the detrended fluctuation analysis and the rescaled range analysis applied on the time series of the AR numbers. The findings suggest that ARs can be considered as a system of self-organized criticality (SOC). We constructed a growing network based on locations, occurrence times, and the lifetimes of 4227 ARs recorded from 1999 January 1 to 2017 April 14. The behavior of the clustering coefficient shows that the AR network is not a random network. The logarithmic behavior of the length scale has the characteristics of a so-called small-world network. It is found that the probability distribution of the node degrees for undirected networks follows the power law with exponents of about 3.7–4.2. This indicates the scale-free nature of the AR network. The scale-free and small-world properties of the AR network confirm that the system of ARs forms a system of SOC. Our results show that the occurrence probability of flares (classified by GOES class

, M, and X flares) in the position of the AR network hubs takes values greater than that obtained for other nodes.
Les banques et le financement des PME en France pendant les années 1920
Authors: Lescure Michel 
Published: August 2017

Quelle est la portée du “financial gap” dont ont été victimes les PME en matière d’endettement bancaire ? Pour tenter de répondre à cette question, l’article étudie l’importance et la nature des crédits bancaires dans le financement des entreprises clientes du Crédit National pendant les années 1920. Il montre que si la décennie étudiée est bien une période de transition partielle entre un financement par les banques régionales et un financement par les nouveaux établissements para-publics créés au lendemain de la guerre, cette transition s’ est mal passée. Ceci s’explique par le fait que les nouveaux établissements para-publics ont subi les mêmes contraintes de financement et de gestion que les banques commerciales.
Un exemple d’histoire d’entreprise en Italie : la Manifattura Lane G. Marzotto & Figli de Valdagne
Authors: Roverato Giorgio 
Published: August 2017

Fondé en 1836, la Manifattura Lane G. Marzotto & Figli est le principal producteur européen dans le travail de la laine, du lin et dans le vêtement masculin. Le cas Marzotto est représentatif de la situation Italienne de l’histoire de l’entreprise - une méfiance des dirigeante à l’égard de la recherche proposée et une richesse d’archives conservées de façon très fortuite. L’originalité de Marzotto s’explique par l’ancienneté, le maintien du contrôle familial du capital en dépit d’une expansion multinationale, le rayonnement de l’activité productive et la politique paternaliste tant envers les ouvriers qu’envers la population du lieu d’implantation du siège social. D’abord il a fallu obtenir le droit d’accéder aux archives et ensuite de procéder à une sorte d’élimination pour différencier les documents nécessaires à la reconstitution historique de l’entreprise. L’état des comptes mensuel, les dossiers des factures, les livres d’inventaire constituent les trois types de documents qui se sont révélés être particulièrement fructueux. Les documents comptables publics étant complètement hermétiques, les états comptables internes ont permis une estimation de la situation financière. Les factures ont permis de déterminer le rapport types de produits/prix et la répartition par région et type de client. Les livres d’inventaire ont permis de reconstituer la gamme de produits et les politiques de gestion, ainsi qu’une idée de la potentialité des services techniques. Les livres de copie des lettres et les rapports internes, qui couvrent presque un demi siècle, ont permis de repérer les nœuds essentiels de l’organisation de la production. Les archives graphiques (cartes, plans et photos) aident à apprécier la « modernité » de la structure de l’entreprise. Avant sa diversification dans le prêt-à-porter, Marzotto voulut limiter les interventions publicitaires directes, préférant les effets induits par ses initiatives dans le domaine de l’assistance et du social. Enfin, l’auteur souligne l’importance de l’histoire orale (entretiens) afin de guider le chercheur sur des pistes difficiles à trouver sur le seul biais des archives.
Le conseil, un espace professionnel autonome ?
Authors: Henry Odile 
Published: August 2017

Il est admis que les ingénieurs-conseils ont joué et jouent encore un rôle important dans l’importation et la diffusion des différentes façons de penser « l’organisation du travail ». Cependant, on ignore encore quelle a été la position occupée par les consultants dans les états successifs du rapport de forces entre le patronat, les ingénieur, les ouvriers et l’Etat et pourquoi, c’est-à-dire par quelle nécessité sociale, un espace professionnel du conseil s’est développé entre les deux guerres. Cet espace n’est pas homogène et se structure, dés les années 1920, entre deux pôles : l’un plus Intellectuel et lié à l’Etat et l’autre plus commercial et proche des attentes patronales. L’étude présentée ici obsédé comment ces deux pôles se sont progressivement consolidés au cours de l’histoire et souhaite apporter une première contribution à une analyse plus générale qui porterait sur la façon dont émerge, s’autonomise et se spécifie le champ du conseil.
« Vers nous, ni forteresse ni tour » : l’entrée de la recherche en sciences sociales à la Régie Renault (1948-1968)
Authors: Perriaux Anne-Sophie 
Published: August 2017

Chez Renault, cinq années seulement séparent les premières études sociologiques menées en 1948 à Billancourt de la création d’un « Service d’études des problèmes du personnel » à la Direction des Relations Sociales en 1953. L’idée selon laquelle la Régie Nationale est un lieu de recherche, y compris pour ses propres salariés, est défendue par son président, Pierre Lefaucheux. La recherche s’insère ainsi dans le projet de modernisation de l’entreprise, au moment même où autour de Georges Friedmann, la sociologie française découvre la recherche empirique. L’urgence d’élaborer une politique sociale ne rend que plus importante la tâche de ceux qui entrent au « Service d’Etudes ». Dotés d’une formation universitaire de haut niveau, le plus souvent littéraire, ceux-ci sont à la fois des chercheurs et des administrateurs. Insérés dans le monde de la recherche où ils présentent leurs études (qui portent aussi bien sur le travail que sur les conditions de vie des salariés), ce sont également eux qui accueillent les chercheurs en quête de « terrain » et, dès la fin des années 1950, les premiers chercheurs contractuels. Les recherches n’ont pas eu dans l’entreprise le rôle de « conseil social » escompté ; non seulement cette vocation semble s’être peu à peu émoussée, mais l’usage qui fut fait des recherches resta essentiellement documentaire.
Special Topic Interoperability and EHR: Combining openEHR, SNOMED, IHE, and Continua as approaches to interoperability on national eHealth
Authors: Stanimirović Dalibor , Beštek Mate 
Published: August 2017

SummaryObjectives: The main aims of the paper comprise the characterization and examination of the potential approaches regarding interoperability. This includes openEHR, SNOMED, IHE, and Continua as combined interoperability approaches, possibilities for their incorporation into the eHealth environment, and identification of the main success factors in the field, which are necessary for achieving required interoperability, and consequently, for the successful implementation of eHealth projects in general.Methods: The paper represents an in-depth analysis regarding the potential application of openEHR, SNOMED, IHE and Continua approaches in the development and implementation process of eHealth in Slovenia. The research method used is both exploratory and deductive in nature. The methodological framework is grounded on information retrieval with a special focus on research and charting of existing experience in the field, and sources, both electronic and written, which include interoperability concepts and related implementation issues.Results: The paper will try to answer the following inquiries that are complementing each other:1. Scrutiny of the potential approaches, which could alleviate the pertinent interoperability issues in the Slovenian eHealth context.2. Analyzing the possibilities (requirements) for their inclusion in the construction process for individual eHealth solutions.3. Identification and charting the main success factors in the interoperability field that critically influence development and implementation of eHealth projects in an efficient manner.Conclusions: Provided insights and identified success factors could serve as a constituent of the strategic starting points for continuous integration of interoperability principles into the healthcare domain. Moreover, the general implementation of the identified success factors could facilitate better penetration of ICT into the healthcare environment and enable the eHealth-based transformation of the health system especially in the countries which are still in an early phase of eHealth planning and development and are often confronted with differing interests, requirements, and contending strategies.Citation: Beštek M, Stanimirovic D.

A comparative survey of the impacts of extreme rainfall in two international case studies

Published: August 2017

Abstract. Flooding is assessed as the most important natural hazard in Europe, causing thousands of deaths, affecting millions of people and accounting for large economic losses in the past decade. Little is known about the damage processes associated with extreme rainfall in cities, due to a lack of accurate, comparable and consistent damage data. The objective of this study is to investigate the impacts of extreme rainfall on residential buildings and how affected households coped with these impacts in terms of precautionary and emergency actions. Analyses are based on a unique dataset of damage characteristics and a wide range of potential damage explaining variables at the household level, collected through computer-aided telephone interviews (CATI) and an online survey. Exploratory data analyses based on a total of 859 completed questionnaires in the cities of Münster (Germany) and Amsterdam (the Netherlands) revealed that the uptake of emergency measures is related to characteristics of the hazardous event. In case of high water levels, more efforts are made to reduce damage, while emergency response that aims to prevent damage is less likely to be effective. The difference in magnitude of the events in Münster and Amsterdam, in terms of rainfall intensity and water depth, is probably also the most important cause for the differences between the cities in terms of the suffered financial losses. Factors that significantly contributed to damage in at least one of the case studies are water contamination, the presence of a basement in the building and people's awareness of the upcoming event. Moreover, this study confirms conclusions by previous studies that people's experience with damaging events positively correlates with precautionary behaviour. For improving future damage data acquisition, we recommend the inclusion of cell phones in a CATI survey to avoid biased sampling towards certain age groups.

Abstract. Pleistocene ice complex permafrost deposits contain roughly a quarter of the organic carbon (OC) stored in permafrost (PF) terrain. When permafrost thaws, its OC is remobilized into the (aquatic) environment where it is available for degradation, transport or burial. Aquatic or coastal environments contain sedimentary reservoirs that can serve as archives of past climatic change. As permafrost thaw is increasing throughout the Arctic, these reservoirs are important locations to assess the fate of remobilized permafrost OC.We here present compound-specific deuterium (δ2H) analysis on leaf waxes as a tool to distinguish between OC released from thawing Pleistocene permafrost (ice complex deposits; ICD) and from thawing Holocene permafrost (from near-surface soils). Bulk geochemistry (%OC; δ13C; %total nitrogen, TN) was analyzed as well as the concentrations and δ2H signatures of long-chain n-alkanes (C21 to C33) and mid- to long-chain n-alkanoic acids (C16 to C30) extracted from both ICD-PF samples (n =  9) and modern vegetation and O-horizon (topsoil-PF) samples (n =  9) from across the northeast Siberian Arctic. Results show that these topsoil-PF samples have higher %OC, higher OC ∕ TN values and more depleted δ13C-OC values than ICD-PF samples, suggesting that these former samples trace a fresher soil and/or vegetation source. Whereas the two investigated sources differ on the bulk geochemical level, they are, however, virtually indistinguishable when using leaf wax concentrations and ratios. However, on the molecular isotope level, leaf wax biomarker δ2H values are statistically different between topsoil PF and ICD PF. For example, the mean δ2H value of C29 n-alkane was −246 ± 13 ‰ (mean ± SD) for topsoil PF and −280 ± 12 ‰ for ICD PF. With a dynamic isotopic range (difference between two sources) of 34 to 50 ‰; the isotopic fingerprints of individual, abundant, biomarker molecules from leaf waxes can thus serve as endmembers to distinguish between these two sources. We tested this molecular δ2H tracer along with another source-distinguishing approach, dual-carbon (δ13C–Δ14C) isotope composition of bulk OC, for a surface sediment transect in the Laptev Sea. Results show that general offshore patterns along the shelf-slope transect are similar, but the source apportionment between the approaches vary, which may highlight the advantages of either. This study indicates that the application of δ2H leaf wax values has potential to serve as a complementary quantitative measure of the source and differential fate of OC thawed out from different permafrost compartments.
