Published: September 2024

Neste estudo, buscou-se determinar a prevalência de dependência ao exercício em praticantes de programas de condicionamento extremo, analisando o impacto na qualidade de vida, o risco de lesões e a sensibilidade à dor. Foram avaliados 368 praticantes de Crossfit® e utilizados os questionários Exercise Addiction Inventory, para avaliar a dependência, o WHOQOL-bref, para avaliar a qualidade de vida, e, para avaliar os riscos de uma possível lesão musculoesquelética, foi utilizado o Questionário de Prontidão para o Esporte com Foco nas Lesões Musculoesqueléticas. Os dados foram analisados pelos testes Shapiro-Wilk, com correlação de Spearman e Odds Ratio (OR) e intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%). Todas as análises foram realizadas considerando um nível de significância de 5%. A prevalência de dependência foi de 14,40%, e foi encontrada correlação entre a dependência e o domínio físico (r = 0,125, p= 0,017) e entre o domínio ambiente e a dependência (r = -0,142, p= 0,006). Foi também encontrada uma associação do positivo para a dependência com o domínio ambiente (OR: 1,094, IC = 1,046-1,143). A prevalência de dependência ao exercício foi de 14,40%. A dependência pode influenciar de forma negativa no domínio ambiente e de forma positiva no domínio físico.

Published: September 2024

Background: Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common benign tumor of the parotid gland, followed by the submandibular gland, and rarely in the minor salivary glands. However, it has the potential to turn malignant. The minor salivary gland in the hard palate is a rare site for PA. Purpose: This report aims to describe the clinical and histopathology findings and treatment with surgical excision of long-standing PA on the hard palate. Case: 40-year-old woman with an asymptomatic 6 x 4 x 4 cm hard palate tumor mass that had remained untreated for ten years and had no preceding trauma. Case Management: The tumor mass was removed surgically by creating an excision opening of 2–3 mm between the mass margin and the maxillary bone periosteum, extending to the posterior palate. Histopathology findings confirmed the diagnosis of PA in the minor salivary gland and revealed typical characteristics associated with malignant transformation. Observation after one month showed that the surgical wound had healed, and no symptoms of recurrence were visible. Conclusion: PA is a benign salivary gland tumor that has the potential to expand extensively. Appropriate surgical excision can improve the prognosis.

Purpose. This article examines the use of English medium instruction (EMI) for teaching Japanese as a foreign language (JFL) by non-native speakers with a focus on multilingual classrooms. It also explores teachers’ positive and negative beliefs about using EMI in classroom settings for JFL instruction. Methods and procedure. 274 non-native Japanese language teachers from around the world (57 countries) voluntarily participated in a survey, answering a questionnaire on Google Forms and Jotform. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed. The research instrument was piloted before the main study and was found to be effective and adequate to elicit the desired data. The research questions aimed to identify whether there were any relationships between the use of EMI and the multilingual classroom. Findings. The results showed a clear correlation between the extensive use of EMI and the multilingual character of JFL classrooms. Translanguaging turned out to be a common practice adopted by non-native Japanese teachers regardless of the primary language of instruction. The article concludes that EMI can be a valuable tool for JFL instruction in multilingual classrooms. Based on the investigation of the teachers’ beliefs, the results showed a changing positive attitude towards English employed in JFL classrooms. Implications for research and practice. The findings can be used to further investigate EMI in JFL instructional practices in multilingual classrooms, improve the quality of JFL instruction and facilitate the integration of multilingual education into foreign language teaching. Future research can explore the effectiveness of EMI in different JFL contexts and investigate the impact of EMI on students’ language learning outcomes.

Published: September 2024

Objectives/ScopeThe paper uses concepts introduced in SPE-199446 (Hudson, 2020) and SPE-199401i (Hudson, 2020) to place driving into the proper category for risk assessment. The paper sets out why current approaches to managing the risk to operations posed by driving do not always produce the results desired. The paper then links this to the cultural level of the organisationsMethods, Procedures, ProcessThe paper considers the dimensionality of the risk spaces in which land transport operations operate. This includes barrier placement knowledge from SPE 197793 and uses the Detect-Decide-Act (DDA) concepts from the CCPS (Bow Ties in Risk Management: A Concept Book for Process Safety) the paper then examines where the loci of control are for the different dimensions. The paper then examines the organizational controls at the managerial levelii(L2) (Hudson, 2020).These results are compared to different high-risk operations to examine the difference in organizational control in the outcomes of those operations.Results, Observations, ConclusionsIn general, driving is seen to be an exceptional category in the hazards to which organisations are exposed. Depending on the operation type, driving can be the largest source of unmitigated riskiii (Hudson, 2010). The paper shows that the driving risk space is not only physically highly dimensional, but also that almost every single barrier to failure is procedural. Thus, the risk space can be considered to be complex.When compared to other operations with complex riskspace such as fixed wing operations or offshore helicopter operations, it becomes clear that organisations do not control the various risk dimensions to the same degree in driving operations. For example, the main external risk a pilot has to manage is weather, as the interactions with other aircraft are managed by air traffic control. However, a driver manages not only weather, but also navigation, road conditions, and most importantly other traffic.This means that the risk management controls required need to be of sufficient sophistication that organisations are able to:The paper contrasts these needs with the typical programs used to manage driving. The paper shows that proper management of dimensions within the span of control of the organisation can help improve the outcomes for organisations.Please explain how this paper will present novel (new) or additive information to the existing body of literature that can be of benefit to a practicing engineer.By placing driving in the correct risk space category (complex), the paper provides insight and understanding into why driving programs will or will not provide the outcomes desired. The paper shows what organisations should consider managing, as well as why current efforts are not delivering.
Improving Driving Behaviors Using AI-Enabled Dashcam Technology
Authors: Ordonez Alejo , Englehardt Eric 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This paper discusses how a global energy technology company implemented an artificial intelligence (AI) enabled dashcam initiative to improve identification of high-risk driving behaviors in order to focus on driver coaching efforts to further reduce automotive incident rates.
Historically, driver improvement technology has been effectively used to identify and monitor driver behavior such as speeding, sudden braking, harsh turns and hard acceleration which provided drivers and managers with feedback to help improve driver safety.
To achieve the next step change in driver performance improvement, the company partnered with a specialist provider of AI-enabled dual facing dashcam technology to utilize a more technological robust solution to identify and coach at-risk driving behaviors which could not be identified with existing driving improvement technology.
The implementation of AI-enabled camera-based technology has to be sensitively managed to ensure the workforce embrace the benefits of such systems. A soft launch implementation included a comprehensive communication campaign with frequently asked questions. The systematic use of facial blurring allowed drivers to become more comfortable with the adoption of this innovative technology in company vehicles.
Historical driver performance monitoring reports rated drivers based on metrics such as speeding, sudden braking, harsh turns, and hard acceleration. Exceptionally safe driving performance was indicated with 98% of drivers scoring well. The implementation of the dashcam AI technology incorporated distracted driving, mobile phone usage, and rolling stops within the driver performance report. With these additional criteria, the percentage of high performing drivers decreased to 65%.
The dual facing dashcams use AI technology to detect distraction events, which enables quick action and coaching of drivers to correct the behavior. The technology implementation resulted in a 98% improvement in detected distracted driver events. The technology also aided in identifying and intervening in fatigue related events and providing evidence in event investigation. In 2023, despite a 20% increase in driving mileage, a 28% reduction in overall automotive incident rate has been achieved.
The utilization of dashcam AI technology can enable a further step change improvement in driving behavior and performance making the roads safer for both company drivers and the local community.
Non-compliance in Complex Operations - A Case Study Led Discussion
Authors: Hudson T. G. L. , Hudson P. A. R. , Hudson P. T. W. 
Published: September 2024

AbstractObjectives/ScopeThe paper discusses the factors that contribute to non-compliant behaviour in complex operations. The anonymised results of a number of in-depth analyses and meta-analyses across multiple industries including Oil and Gas and Aviation are used to consider the organizational causes of non-compliance and the possible remedies available to organisations. These range from physical plant changes to amendments to contracting regimes.Methods, Procedures, ProcessSituations where non-compliance was more likely to occur were identified using investigation methods: meta-analysis of incidents using the Meeting Expectations modelthe procedures and practices questionnaire based upon the "Hearts and Minds" safety culture approacha series of workforce interviews and focus groupsphysical on-site observations as well as human factors analysis of the locations.The results are placed within the concepts of loci of control, span of control, and the risk dimensions managed to provide an understanding of what is driving non-compliance.Results, Observations, ConclusionsThe analysis points to the main drivers for non-compliance falling into a number of broad categories. Each of these categories have distinct contributing factors that have different organizational remedies.These categories are: Operational pressure: The workload in the environment creates the (perceived) need to create deviation from documented procedures to enable the execution of assigned tasks in a timely fashion.Physical environmental mismatches: The physical environment does not actually conform to the design standards that the procedures are written for.Complex interactions: The complexity of interactions between parties creates a breakdown in prioritization in tasking and the lack of lines of accountability creates confusion and non-compliant behaviours. The solutions for the different categories can be seen as the explicit acceptance that the space the organisation operates in is more complex than the rule set the workforce is subjected to.For operational pressure the organisation has to explicitly recognise the situations where the workload is too high. The most common place for this is in planning. This can then be remedied by either changing the workload or providing more resources.For Physical environment mismatches the organisation has to explicitly accept that not all rules are fit for purpose. The introduction of tools such as variance procedures provide the ability to remain in compliance with the reason for procedures rather than the procedures as written.For Complex interactions the organisation has to explicitly recognise that even simple operations can be subjected to highly complex interactions. By managing complex interactions and ensuring proper accountabilities organisations can limit their exposure to these situations. This often entails changes in key performance indicators and contract structures.Novel/Additive InformationThe paper describes non-obvious managerial solutions to non-compliance.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Well barriers are challenging and most of the barriers are below surface. With its efficient management system ADNOC Offshore has minimized the impact by efficient monitoring and mitigation strategies in place.
ADNOC offshore has established a Well Integrity management system which takes care of barrier management for the well life cycle. The company has a philosophy of always maintaining two barriers for oil and gas wells. Right from well design the effective and efficient barriers are designed based on the perceived hazards. During well construction the barriers are verified based on the expected performance standard. During production / injection operations the barriers are monitored, tested, and repaired in case of barrier failure. At the end of well life, it is plugged by proper barrier design to ensure no failures in future.
After the implementation of the management, gradual reduction in well risk has been demonstrated. All the well risks are mapped in a risk register with short-term and long-term actions to have a focused emphasis in monitoring and mitigating risks. Efficient tools have been developed to notify the engineers to take prompt actions.
The focus has been on remote monitoring systems with an aim for autonomous operations as our dream.
Due to efficient testing of barriers, there has been no uncontrolled external leak of hydrocarbon to the environment thereby reducing the methane emission which is one of the contributing factors for global warming.
Efficient systems have let us optimize the monitoring program by reducing human exposure at site.
In addition to achieving high HSE performance and improved KPI’s the company has been able to demonstrate the positive impact on the environment. This could be achieved by adoption of proactive measures which enhance integrity and result in a lower carbon footprint during our operations.
Novel Approach on Utilizing Reverse Osmosis Rejected Saline Stream for Mangrove Trees Restoration & Water Conservation Management

Water scarcity is a pressing global challenge that almost affect two thirds of the world’s population for at least one month each year [1][7]. This crisis is characterized by both the lack of sufficient water and fresh water to drink. This can be caused by many factors including water overuse, arid climates, population growth and water pollution.
Climate change is aggravating water scarcity by alerting the patterns of weather and water, causing droughts in many areas in the world and floods in other areas, excessive heat which melt glaciers and snow that supplies fresh water to the downstream communities and by next Year 4 billion people will face water shortages due to these factors and many others.
Depletion of freshwater resources, rivers and lakes drying, and destruction of wetlands are part of the significant environmental impacts caused by water scarcity. Furthermore, human activities and the advance of industrialization are accelerating the depletion of water resources at an unprecedented rate. According to World Wildlife Fund (WWF) agriculture is a major contributor to water scarcity, consuming around 2,650 billion m3 of the world’s accessible water reserves each year and increasing [2]. Which account for 68% of the global water consumption annually. This issue rises due to the inefficient irrigation in many areas causing more than 50% of the water used in agriculture to be wasted in excessive irrigation and unmanaged use of water [2][3]. industry comes in second, accounting for little less than 20% of the global water use. Energy generation, especially in thermodynamic power generation, demands substantial volumes of cooling water for industrial operations. This reliance poses a significant challenge as it amplifies water scarcity, particularly in regions where there's already a high demand for energy and limited water resources. Additionally, wastewater generation from industrial applications is polluting freshwater resources exacerbating water scarcity and environmental degradation. Lastly is domestic use which only accounts for 12% of the global water consumption on average. This percentage becomes less than 10% in the low and lower to middle classes where water scarcity is becoming a pressing issue [3]. Water consumption rate for domestic use has been increasing each year by 20% since 2000. This escalating demand is especially pronounced in low-income and developing countries, particularly in areas with high population densities and limited financial resources.
