Design of a mechanism for converting the energy of knee motions by using electroactive polymers
Authors: Armbruster Pascal , Oster Yannick , Vogt Marcel , Pylatiuk Christian 
Published: March 2017

AbstractHarvesting energy from human body motions has become a promising option to prolong battery life for powering medical devices for autonomy. Up to now, different generating principles including dielectric electroactive polymers (DEAPs) have been suggested for energy conversion. However, there is a lack of mechanisms that are specifically designed to convert energy with DEAPs. In a proof of concept study, a mechanical system was designed for stretching DEAPs in those phases of the gait cycle, in which the muscles mainly perform negative work. Rotational movements of the knee joint are transformed into linear movements by using a cable pull. The DEAP can be charged during the stretching phase and discharged during releasing and allows for the conversion of kinetic energy into electric energy. To evaluate the concept, tests were conducted. It was found that the developed body energy harvesting (BEH) system has a performance in the range of 24–40 μW at normal walking speed. The converted energy is sufficient for powering sensors in medical devices such as active orthoses or prostheses.
Concept of uncertainty in relation to the foresight research
Authors: Magruk Andrzej 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Uncertainty is one of the most important features of many areas of social and economic life, especially in the forward-looking context. On the one hand, the degree of uncertainty is associated with the objective essence of randomness of the phenomenon, and on the other, with the subjective perspective of a man. Future-oriented perception of human activities is laden with an incomplete specificity of the analysed phenomena, their volatility, and lack of continuity. A man is unable to determine, with complete certainty, the further course of these phenomena. According to the author of this article, in order to significantly reduce the uncertainty while making strategic decisions in a complex environment, we should focus our actions on the future through systemic research of foresight. This article attempts to answer the following research questions: 1) What is the relationship between foresight studies in the system perspective to studies of the uncertainty? 2) What classes of foresight methods enable the research of uncertainty in the process of system inquiry of the future? This study conducted deductive reasoning based on the results of the analysis methods and criticism of literature.
Increased vulnerability to wildfires and post fire hydro-geomorphic processes in Portuguese mountain regions: what has changed?
Authors: Nunes A. N. , Lourenço L. 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The main objectives of this study were to understand the frequency of forest fires, post-fire off-site hydrological response and erosional processes from a social and ecological perspective in two basins located in the central cordillera, Portugal. It also discusses the driving forces that contribute towards increasing the social-ecological vulnerability of systems in the face of hazards and emphasizes the importance of learning from disasters. Based on the historical incidence of wildfires, it is possible to identify several areas affected by two, three or four fires, since 1975. Following the two major fires, in 1987 and 2005, flash floods, intense soil erosion and sedimentation processes were generated, causing severe damage. Significant socioeconomic, political and ecological changes have been affecting mountain regions in the last decades. Approximately 80% of the population and more than 90% of the livestock have disappeared, common lands have been afforested with Pinus pinaster, and several agricultural plots have been abandoned. These factors have all contributed towards creating non- or submanaged landscapes that have led to a dramatic increase in the magnitude and frequency of wildfires and to post-fire hydrological and erosional processes when heavy rainfall occurs. Moreover, the low population density, high level of population ageing and very fire-prone vegetation that now covers large areas of both basins, contribute to a situation of extreme socio-ecological vulnerability, meaning that disasters will continue to occur unless resilience can be restored to improve the capacity to cope with this high susceptibility to hazards.
Verbal number in Goemai (West Chadic)
Authors: Hellwig Birgit 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Chadic languages are known for marking verbal number, and Goemai is no exception. When comparing Goemai to other Chadic languages, however, several differences emerge: the inventory is exceptionally large; the verbs come from all lexical fields; and they are used to indicate participant number rather than event number. Contrary to expectations, the marking of participant number does not only cover intransitive subjects and transitive objects, but also some transitive subjects and peripheral arguments. These patterns have a semantic basis, and this chapter explores the interaction of verbal number, transitivity and semantic roles in Goemai.
On verbal and nominal plurality in languages of the Bade-Ngizim group
Authors: Ziegelmeyer Georg 
Published: March 2017

AbstractThis paper illustrates formation processes of verbal and nominal plurals in West Chadic languages of the Bade-Ngizim group. Examples are drawn from Gashua Bade, Western Bade, and Ngizim. It is demonstrated that verbal and nominal plurals in these languages synchronically employ similar morphological processes, i. e. reduplication of a CV syllable to the left. While this is the only process attested with verbal plurals, noun plurals frequently employ additional suffixes. Beyond that, formation processes of plural imperatives are outlined. We conclude that formation processes can adequately be described while their actual functions and their use in discourse are still rather fuzzy.

AbstractTo elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), we recruited 86 subjects with varying degrees of hepatic steatosis (HS). We obtained experimental data on lipoprotein fluxes and used these individual measurements as personalized constraints of a hepatocyte genome‐scale metabolic model to investigate metabolic differences in liver, taking into account its interactions with other tissues. Our systems level analysis predicted an altered demand for NAD+ and glutathione (GSH) in subjects with high HS. Our analysis and metabolomic measurements showed that plasma levels of glycine, serine, and associated metabolites are negatively correlated with HS, suggesting that these GSH metabolism precursors might be limiting. Quantification of the hepatic expression levels of the associated enzymes further pointed to altered de novo GSH synthesis. To assess the effect of GSH and NAD+ repletion on the development of NAFLD, we added precursors for GSH and NAD+ biosynthesis to the Western diet and demonstrated that supplementation prevents HS in mice. In a proof‐of‐concept human study, we found improved liver function and decreased HS after supplementation with serine (a precursor to glycine) and hereby propose a strategy for NAFLD treatment.
Das Subventionsrecht der WTO: Ordnung des Welthandels und Schutz des Wettbewerbs
Authors: Stoll Peter-Tobias 
Published: March 2017

Zusammenfassung
Eine Stärkung der amerikanischen Industrie durch Reform der Unternehmensbesteuerung, Maßnahmen zur Förderung erneuerbarer Energien und die globale Stahlkrise – das alles sind aktuelle Anwendungsfälle des Subventionsrechts der Welthandelsorganisation (WTO). Die zwei letztgenannten Problemkonstellationen mögen zwar vertraut klingen. Insgesamt aber scheint das WTO-Recht als wesentlicher Teil des internationalen Handelsrechts von den Vorstellungen und Realitäten unserer europäischen und deutschen Ordnung der Märkte mit dem Wettbewerbs- und Beihilfenrecht weit entfernt zu sein. Dies trifft auf das Kartellrecht im engeren Sinne uneingeschränkt zu. Im Hinblick auf das Subventions- bzw. Beihilfenrecht hat aber das internationale Recht mit den Subventionsregeln der WTO durchaus etwas zu bieten. Wenngleich die WTO-Regelungen über Subventionen von ganz anderen systemischen Grundlagen ausgehen, können die sehr konkreten und in der Streitbeilegung erprobten Regelungen durchaus einen Ordnungsbeitrag leisten. Das internationale Recht ist damit in einem Bereich stark ausgeprägt, den das europäische Recht ebenbürtig neben das Kartellrecht stellt, während das deutsche Recht insoweit eher schwach entwickelt ist. Der folgende Beitrag soll Grundlagen und Praxis des WTO-Subventionsrechts mit Seitenblicken auf das europäische Beihilfenrecht erläutern und in seiner Bedeutung würdigen.
Verbandsautonomie im Verhältnis gegenüber Dritten – Kein Spiel ohne (kartell-)rechtliche Grenzen!
Authors: Heermann Peter W. 
Published: March 2017

Zusammenfassung
Auf unterschiedliche Weise nehmen Sportverbände – zumeist unter Bezugnahme auf die Verbandsautonomie – über ihre Statuten auf das Verhalten Dritter Einfluss. Diese sind zum einen regelmäßig nicht unmittelbare oder mittelbare Verbandsmitglieder und nehmen zum anderen aber doch in unterschiedlicher Weise auf den ökonomischen Erfolg des Sportbetriebs Einfluss. Durch entsprechende Verbandsstatuten können etwa folgende Gruppen in ihren wirtschaftlichen Aktivitäten betroffen sein: potentielle Sponsoren, Sportartikelhersteller, Spielervermittler, Investoren (z. B. bei Fußballclubs), Medien und verbandsunabhängige Veranstalter von Sportwettkämpfen.
Im Hinblick auf derartige Konstellationen stellen sich folgende, nachfolgend zu beantwortende Fragen: Worauf basiert die Normsetzungsgewalt des Sportverbandes? Inwieweit erfolgt die Normsetzung von Sportverbänden innerhalb der Grenzen der Verbandsautonomie? Welche rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen gelten bei Überschreiten dieser Grenzen? Wie ist eine kartellrechtliche Inhalts- und Ausübungskontrolle auszugestalten, die als Ausgleich für das Legitimationsdefizit derartiger Verbandsstatuten mit mittelbaren Drittwirkungen geboten ist?
TV Brasil e a configuração da rede nacional de televisão pública na Região Sul
Authors: Lopes Ivonete Da Silva 
Published: March 2017

Este artigo discute um dos princípios constitutivos da radiodifusão pública, a universalidade de acesso, a partir da análise da cobertura geográfica da rede nacional de televisão pública na Região Sul. Destaca que a região possui a segunda maior quantidade de emissoras públicas do país, 28 TVs Educativas, no entanto apenas quatro delas integram a rede pública liderada pela TV Brasil. O cenário indica que universalizar a cobertura ainda representa um desafio a ser superado pela TV Brasil quase uma década depois de sua implantação.

Preliminary Economic Evaluation for Mexico's Mature Fields
Authors: Alvarado Kelvis , Bravo Christian , Sandoval Erika 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
Mexican energy reform has opened an ambitious transformation process, authorizing private investment for exploration and extraction of hydrocarbon under different type of contracts. This transformation has led IOC's, NOC's and newcomers to enter in Mexico in order to achieve best field development plans for production increase in onshore, offshore and unconventional fields.
The objective of this study is to analyze winner's economics expectations for 25 matures fields of Round 1-Tender 3. Within the framework of this tender, winners offered royalty values higher than 60% for 14 fields, from 40% to 60% for 6 fields and lower than 40% in 5 fields, while Mexican government requested minimum royalties from 1% to 10% for all fields. The evaluation took into account the bidding offers (royalties and minimum work plan), economics and technical variables in order to build a 20 years full cycle preliminary economic analysis.
A tailored analysis was done for each field, where production profiles took into account: drilling and workover wells based on minimum work plan and reservoir technical challenges (pressure depletion, geological complexity, fluid type, well productivity and facility capacity), combining with economics variables expected, such as: CAPEX (e.g. wells drilling and workovers costs, facilities revamping, etc.), OPEX (e.g. lifting cost, treatment water/gas, etc.), royalties, oil price for future selling (Mexican basket), in order to generate more suitable development plan according to bidding process.
For each field an operating margin (from 3.4 to 28.3 USD/STB) and development-operational cost (from 10.5 to 82.1 USD/STB) were estimated considering average Mexican basket in 50 USD/STB, for this consideration 15 fields would have the chance to have positive gross income, the remaining 10 fields, does not have any possibility to make any profit.
Although results of this study were not considered for decision making, a visualization of the status of each field is shown, allowing to know the expectations of each winner. 11 fields have high chance to be operated by the first or second winner with investment ranging between USD 5 and 43 million, on the other hand, 14 fields have high potential to be returned immediately or after 2 years evaluation period with potential investment varying from USD 6 to 73 million. These results indicate that in most of the cases royalties offered by bidders exceeded the government expectations, leading a tight scenario beyond economic feasibility of these fields.
A New Method For Calculating Individual Layer Permeability and Skin in a Multilayered Reservoir Using Production Logging Data: The Delta Transient Method
Authors: Galvao Mauricio S. , Guimaraes Ciro S. 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
In this work an analytical solution for the inverse problem of a heterogeneous reservoir, composed by several infinite acting homogenous layers, is presented. The solution comprises a small set of ordinary algebraic equations, providing an explicit solution for the inverse problem. The layers may differ in thickness, porosity, fluid viscosity, total compressibility and initial pressure, which are input data. The proposed Method calculates the radial permeability and the wellbore skin factor for each individual layer and requires Production Logging data.
The Method's outcomes are important for both mature fields and new discoveries, providing valuable information for enhanced oil recovery techniques and accurate data for geological modeling. In addition, the method is a useful tool for assessing acid job diversion performance, especially on carbonate reservoirs, where acidizing procedures are largely employed.
The proposed Delta Transient Method focuses on providing simple calculations and delivering robust results. Operational feasibility of data acquisition has also been taken into account for the development of the Method. The main features of the present work are:
The Method calculates the permeability and skin for each individual layer, for an unlimited number of layers; The Method has been designed to be applied to a relatively short single rate flow period (only few hours of drawdown/injection); There is no need for rate changes. Nonetheless, the Method works with rate changes, as long as the principle of superposition is considered; Only two PLT (production-logging tool) flow profiles at distinct times are required for full application of the Method. No stationary data are needed; The calculations for each layer are performed with a small set of algebraic equations, which can be easily modeled in any ordinary spreadsheet software. No graph analyses are required.
The Method has a strong operational-practical drive, which consists of demanding only few hours of rig time for data acquisition. Moreover, once permeability and skin for each layer are obtained, a reasonableness check is provided as a final step to the Method. The purpose of this check is to guarantee reliability on the resulting outcomes. Issues concerning formation crossflow, wellbore storage and high transmissibility systems are also addressed. A successful case study is presented, where it took only 10 hours to acquire all necessary data.
Real-Time Monitoring Enables Control and Evaluation of Cementing Operations
Authors: Torres J. L , Martinez F.. , Yepez S. X. , Cardoso O. F. , Moretti F.. , Contreras Escalante J. R. 
Published: March 2017

Abstract
The importance of real-time cementing monitoring was discounted by the oil & gas industry for years, until the Deepwater Horizon accident in 2010. The subsequent updates to US federal regulation 30 CFR Part 250 (released in 2016) caused a re-evaluation of the importance of real-time cementing services because of the role real-time well monitoring plays in the safety of critical well operations including cementing.
Currently, cement job monitoring is limited to the acquisition of pressure, rate, and density measurements. Based on those measurements, a basic evaluation is performed during the job. A new software tool has been developed to improve the ability to make real-time interpretation to diagnose critical job parameters while the cement job is in progress.
Acquisition of real-time data for cementing has evolved by using simulation models, which have helped to predict unstable wellbore conditions. These simulations enable both the well operator and service provider to take immediate decisions to eliminate or at least reduce an inadequate zonal isolation, which will affect the future of the well in the completion and productivity phases.
The objective of this paper is to explain and demonstrate how the integration of cementing real-time data acquisition and cement design can be used as a successful technology to monitor and control critical job parameters like pressure behavior, flow rates, and equivalent circulating density (ECD) at different depths.
The combined data can be broadcast to anywhere the operator is located to remotely follow the job execution and to perform hydraulic simulations and pressure match interpretation. At the same time, this process helps to ensure flawless service delivery and quality assurance during the cement job, providing critical information while delivering greater certainty and reduced risk of costly errors.
A new real-time software tool was designed using an innovative platform that brings together cross-domain workflows based on a data management layer extended across different disciplines: petrophysics, geology, drilling, reservoir and production engineering, and geophysics. The platform offers a tightly integrated environment and it is the foundation for integrating future development of well-centric applications.
Locking versus Non-locking Neutralization Plates with Limited Excision and Internal Fixation for Treatment of Extra-articular Type a Distal Tibial Fractures
Authors: Zhou Kai-hua , Chen Nong 
Published: March 2017

Purpose:
This study aimed to compare the clinical, radiologic, and cost-effectiveness results between locking and non-locking plates for the treatment of extra-articular type A distal tibial fractures.

Methods:
We performed a retrospective review of AO/OTA 42-A1, A2 distal tibial fractures treated by plates from January 2011 to June 2013. Patients were divided to the locking plate group or the non-locking plate group. Clinical outcomes, radiographic outcomes, and hospitalization fee were compared between the two plates groups.

Results:
28 patients were treated with a locking plate and 23 patients were treated with a non-locking plate. The mean follow-up was 18.8 months (12-23 months). There were no significant differences between the groups in surgical time, bleeding, bone union time, or AOFAS scores. The cost of the locking plate was ¥24,648.41 ± 6,812.95 and the cost of the non-locking plate was ¥11,642 ± 3,162.57, p < 0.001. Each group had one patient that experienced superficial infection these wounds were readily healed by oral antibiotics and dressing changes. To date, five patients in the locking group and ten patients in the non-locking group had sensations of metal stimulation or other discomfort (X2 = 3.99, p < 0.05) Until the last follow-up, 14 patients in the locking plate group and 18 patients in the non-locking plate group had their plates removed or wanted to remove their plates (X2 = 4.31, p < 0.05).

Conclusion:
The use of locking or non-locking plates provides a similar outcome in the treatment of distal fractures. However the locking plate is much more expensive than the non-locking plate.
