L1 English speaker participation in ELF interaction: a single case analysis of dyadic institutional talk
Authors: Kimura Daisuke 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
This conversation analytic study explores the nexus of goal orientation and linguistic identity (particularly of L1 English speakers) in ELF interaction. While goal orientation constitutes a hallmark of ELF scholarship, the latter notion has received limited scholarly attention. To address this gap, this study examines a dyadic, institutional interaction between two students in the United States (L1 British English and L1 Arabic) who met for an intercultural conversation assigned by their instructors. In the interest of accomplishing the goal of obtaining intercultural information, the participants did not bring their differences in linguistic identity to the fore of the interaction, while it was also found that the pursuit of an institutional goal can at times manifest itself as orientations to linguistic norms. The examination of these overt orientations to the institutional goal is followed by a study of deviant cases in which the L1 speaking participant appeared to make relevant his superior linguistic identity at first glance. While they could be interpreted as claims of linguistic superiority, a closer look revealed that these instances also reflected the participants’ cooperative orientations to the emergent communicative needs so as to jointly accomplish the shared goal. Highlighting the problem of presuming a correlation between interactional behavior and linguistic identity, the study suggests the need for the analyst to withhold his/her preconceptions about interactants’ identities. Further research involving diverse groups of interactants, including L1 speakers of English, is needed to contribute to the recent theoretical developments that characterize ELF interaction as situated within diverse linguacultural ecologies and power dynamics.

Abstract

Objective:
To determine the rate of chromosomal cytogenetic abnormalities in fetuses with late onset abnormal sonographic findings.

Design:
Retrospective cohort of women who underwent amniocentesis at or beyond 23 weeks of gestation, for fetal karyotype and chromosomal microarray analysis, indicated due to late onset abnormal sonographic findings.

Results:
All 103 fetuses had a normal karyotype. Ninety-five women also had chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) performed. The detection rate of abnormal CMA (5/95, 5.3%) was similar to that of women who underwent amniocentesis due to abnormal early onset ultrasound findings detected at routine prenatal screening tests during the first or early second trimester (7.3%, P=0.46) and significantly higher than that for women who underwent amniocentesis and CMA upon request, without a medical indication for CMA (0.99%, P<0.0001).

Conclusions:
Late onset sonographic findings are an indication for amniocentesis, and if performed, CMA should be applied to evaluate fetuses with late onset abnormal sonographic findings.
Trace Elemental Characterization of Maltese Pottery from the Late Neolithic to Middle Bronze Age
Authors: Pirone Frederick S. , Tykot Robert H. 
Published: September 2017

AbstractThe aim of this research was to determine the provenance of Maltese ceramics and to determine the role pottery played in Maltese prehistoric trade and interaction networks. This study involved 236 Maltese ceramic samples, 19 geological clay samples from Ġnejna Bay & Selmun along with 18 ceramic samples from Ognina, Sicily, and four Sicilian clay samples from the outskirts of Siracusa that were nondestructively analyzed using a portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) spectrometer in order to determine their trace elemental compositions (Th, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr and Nb). The results of this analysis were statistically analyzed using principal component analysis in order to ascertain relationships in the chemical compositions among the samples. The results of this analysis indicate that the majority of all the Maltese ceramic samples have a local Maltese provenance and that pottery played a more significant role in defining the nature of Malta’s trade relationships during the Bronze Age. The following study has provided new insights into Malta’s role in trade and interaction networks from the late Neolithic to the Bronze Age and has allowed for new ideas in explaining the cultural change observed from the Temple Period to the Bronze Age.
Geophysical Prediction Technology Based on Organic Carbon Content in Source Rocks of the Huizhou Sag, the South China Sea
Authors: Yang Wei , Gong Xiao-xing , Peng Fei-fei 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
Due to the high exploration cost, limited number of wells for source rocks drilling and scarce test samples for the Total Organic Carbon Content (TOC) in the Huizhou sag, the TOC prediction of source rocks in this area and the assessment of resource potentials of the basin are faced with great challenges. In the study of TOC prediction, predecessors usually adopted the logging assessment method, since the data is only confined to a “point” and the regional prediction of the source bed in the seismic profile largely depends on the recognition of seismic facies, making it difficult to quantify TOC. In this study, we combined source rock geological characteristics, logging and seismic response and built the mathematical relation between quasi TOC curve and seismic data based on the TOC logging date of a single well and its internal seismic attribute. The result suggested that it was not purely a linear relationship that was adhered to by predecessors, but was shown as a complicated non-linear relationship. Therefore, the neural network algorithm and SVMs were introduced to obtain the optimum relationship between the quasi TOC curve and the seismic attribute. Then the goal of TOC prediction can be realized with the method of seismic inversion.

Published: September 2017

Abstract
Under the bad sea conditions and weak Beidou navigation signal environment, it is difficult to locate the ship on the sea, and the Beidou navigation system can’t work well. Beidou pseudolite system can improve the performance of Beidou navigation system as a navigation signal transmitter fixed on the ground, the signal of which can improve satellite positioning constellation structure, and improve the system availability reliability and precision. In order to ensure the interoperability and non-correlation of the Beidou pseudolite and the Beidou navigation system, the pseudolite ranging-codes should be selected in the same code space of the satellite ranging-codes and the residual pseudo random code generated by the 2 taps design scheme does not satisfy the performance requirements of the ranging-codes. To solve this issue, a combined design scheme with 3 taps is proposed, and 12 kinds of pseudolite ranging-codes are optimally selected according to the optimum design parameters of ranging-codes. The waveform and correlation of the selected pseudolite ranging-codes are analyzed by MATLAB, the acquisition simulation is carried out by using the new pseudolite ranging-codes. The experimental results show that the new 3-taps based ranging codes design scheme behaves a good balance, correlation and spectral characteristics.

Published: September 2017

Abstract
At present, ship model tests are based on the normal mode at home and abroad. With the development and application of abnormal hydraulic model, it is necessary to study abnormal ship model. The similarity criterion of abnormal ship model is deduced from the similarity theory of normal hydraulic model in this paper. Some factors that affect the maneuverability of the abnormal ship model are discussed by theoretical analysis of ship maneuvering. The influence of the K and T index of different variable rate on the abnormal ship model maneuvering and the dimensional effect of the abnormal ship model are obtained, which can be used as a reference for the study of the abnormal ship model.

Published: September 2017

Zusammenfassung
Zur Bestimmung des dynamischen Verhaltens von Berührungsthermometern existieren standardisierte Messvorrichtungen. Die auf diese Weise ermittelten Thermometerkennwerte ermöglichen den Vergleich unterschiedlicher Thermometer. Mit dem Ansprechverhalten unter realen Einbaubedingungen haben die so ermittelten Kennwerte jedoch oft wenig zu tun. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird das dynamische Verhalten unterschiedlicher Berührungsthermometer in unterschiedlichen Einbausituationen miteinander verglichen. Dabei kommen ein Temperatursprung an der Thermometer-Außenseite, sowie ein sogenannter Loop-Current-Step-Response-Test (LCSR-Test) zum Einsatz. Der LCSR-Test kann hier gerade unter Einbaubedingungen eine Aussage über das Ansprechverhalten eines Thermometers liefern.

Abstract
Ecological Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) applied in the assessment of the impact of products on the environment is a technique that allows for the evaluation of the environmental impact of polymeric flocculants used in industrial wastewater treatment. The possibility of conducting a full life cycle and thus manufacturing process analysis allows for reliable and accurate identification of the sources of environmental hazards and the impact of new products on the environment. Newly synthesized waste-based polymers are water soluble and possess the properties of flocculants, while reducing the parameters in industrial wastewater. In the paper, there are presented the results of the analysis conducted using LCA technique for the assessment of the impact of modified waste phenol formaldehyde resin (Novolak) on the environment. LCA technique was used to assess the impact of the new flocculant applied in the process of metallurgical wastewater treatment taking into account the environmental impact of the flocculant manufacturing process.
Accumulation of Heavy Metals by Small Mammals the Background and Polluted Territories of the Urals
Authors: Kovalchuk L. A. , Mikshevich N. V. 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
Accumulation of heavy metals (Cu, Zn, Cd) in hemopoietic-competent organs of ecologically contrast species of small mammals (Clethrionomys glareolus, Sorex araneus, Apodemus uralensis) from natural populations of the Middle and South Urals were considered. The content of exogenous and essential trace elements in animal tissues (a liver, kidney, a spleen) was determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. It has been shown that bioaccumulation of heavy metals in organs of insectivores significantly differs from it of bank voles and wood mice. The smallest total content of heavy metals is shown in wood mice in technogenic territories of the Middle Urals. The submitted data demonstrate the competitive mechanism of the Cu, Zn, Cd. The increased concentrations of endogenous trace elements (copper, zinc) in relation to a toxicant (cadmium), other things being equal, reduce cadmium accumulation level in the tissues Sorex araneus.
Nonclassical t-Dependent Energy Integral of q″+aq′+b(t)q+c(t)qn
=0
Authors: Casetta Leonardo 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
In the present note, we address the general nonlinear oscillator of the form q″+aq′+b(t)q+c(t)qn
=0, where q as well as the coefficients b(t) and c(t) are complex or real-valued functions of the real variable t; a is a real constant, and n is a real number. By starting with a certain Hamiltonian function, we discuss conditions on the functions b(t) and c(t) for which such differential equation becomes able to admit a nonclassical energy integral – i.e. a t-dependent energy integral. A method to inversely elicit the corresponding conservative solutions of this differential equation is consequently established, and two examples addressing periodic conservative solutions are shown.

AbstractThis research investigates molecular parameters such as equilibrium structure, dipole moment, rotational constant, harmonic frequency, adiabatic electron affinity, atomisation energy, and ionisation potential of some identified diatomic molecules in interstellar/circumstellar medium. A theoretical understanding of the molecular properties of the investigated molecules is obtained using the popular B3LYP hybrid density functional with four basis sets: 6-311++G(2df,2pd), 6-311++G(3df,3pd), cc-pVTZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ. The computed data conform very well with available experimental and theoretical results. The accuracy of the B3LYP functional on the studied molecular systems are ±0.006 Å for the bond length, ±0.044 D for the dipole moment, ±0.854 GHz for the rotational constant, ±59 cm−1for the harmonic frequency, ±2.03 kcal/mol for the electron affinity, ±4.74 kcal/mol for atomisation energy, and ±3.19 kcal/mol for ionisation potential.
Paul Michael Kurtz: „Was wir von dem Siege erhoffen“. Eine Stellungnahme Hermann Gunkels zur Zeit des Ersten Weltkriegs
Authors: Kurtz Paul Michael 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
In an opinion piece penned at the Great War’s onset yet apparently unpublished until now, the historian of religion Hermann Gunkel outlined the opportunities he saw for the German people in anticipation of their triumph. He believed this war could consummate what the Napoleonic Wars and the Unification of Germany had not. Gunkel hoped for true German unity, more liberal domestic politics, and spiritual restoration. Further still, he referred to a resurgence of piety on account of the conflict. On the Great War’s centenary, this documentation speaks to the mobilizing, nationalist activities of Gunkel in particular and of academicians and theologians more generally.
Salivary oxidative analysis and periodontal status in children with atopy
Authors: Nazaryan Rozana , Kryvenko Liudmyla 
Published: September 2017

Background and aims
Prevalence of atopic diseases is progressively increasing in children with unclear clinical picture in oral cavity. This study aimed to find correlation between the total antioxidant and periodontal status in the saliva of periodontally compromised with atopy.

Materials and methods
The groups consisted of patients of atopic diseases and gingivitis (ADG), of atopic diseases without gingivitis (AD), and healthy controls (HC). The level of gingival inflammation was evaluated using the sulcus bleeding index (SBI) reported by Mühlemann and Son. Glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were estimated in saliva.

Results
The mean salivary MDA levels of group HC was significantly lower compared with group ADG and AD (P < 0.05). Similarly, in the case of salivary GSH, marker levels revealed a significant decrease (P < 0.05) when mean values in the control group (5.12 ± 0.66 µmol/L) were compared with the ADG (2.31 ± 0.44 µmol/L) and AD groups (2.69 ± 0.56 µmol/L). The SOD activity was significantly lower in the ADG and AD groups compared with HC.

Discussion
As there was no significant difference in the level of SOD concentration between groups, we suggest that antioxidant imbalance is primarily explained by atopic disease.

Conclusion
The results showed changes in antioxidant balance in children with atopy.

ABSTRAK PREDIKSI KARAKTERISTIK TERMOFLUIDA PROSES PERPINDAHAN PANAS DI DALAM RUANG BAKAR INCINERATOR. Penanganan limbah padat dengan proses pembakaran merupakan salah satu cara yang efektif sampai saat ini, instalasi incinerator masih menjadi perlatan pilihan yang dipergunakan untuk proses pembakaran. Namun penggunaan incinerator sebagai alat pembakaran sampah harus direncanakan dengan baik, karena efek yang dihasilkan adalah produk-produk destruktif yang justru bernilai negatif terhadap lingkungan. Mengingat proses pembakaran yang sangat kompleks di dalam incinerator, maka dilakukan simulasi dengan membuat suatu pemodelan menggunakan perangkat lunak compu-tational fluid dinamics (Fluent). Simulasi ini bertujuan untuk melihat karakteristik termo fluida yang terjadi di dalam ruang bakar incinerator meliputi variabel-variabel antara lain distribusi temperatur, sifat-sifat fisik fluida dan jenis aliran ( laminer atau turbulen ). Variabel-variabel tersebut akan mempengaruhi harga koefisien perpindahan panas konveksi (h). Perhitungan karakteristik termofluida yang meliputi panas yang mengalir (Q) dan koefisien perpindahan panas (h) pada tiga (3) titik pengukuran arah aksial diperoleh hasil koefisien perpindahan panas konveksi di ruang bagian dalam lebih besar 10 kali dari koefisien perpindahan panas konveksi di ruang bagian luar antara bata dalam dan bata luar. ABSTRACT THERMOFLUID characteristic prediction oF heat transfeR in the combustion chamber of incinerator. Handling of solid waste with the combustion process by installing the incinerator, is one effective way at present. However, the use of incinerators as a means of burning waste should be well planned, because of the resulted destructive products that have a negative impact to the environment. Considering the complexity process of combustion in the incinerator, the process simulation is done by using Computational fluid Dynamics software (Fluent). This simulation is proposed to obtain thermofluid characteristics such as variable temperature distribution, physical properties of the fluid and flow pattern (laminer or turbulent). These variables will affect the convection heat transfer coefficient (h). The Calculation characteristics of termofluida such as heat flow (Q) and coefficient heat transfer (h) on three (3) points in axial direction obtained the coefficient heat transfer convection inner space is greater 10 times than the coefficient heat transfer convection outer space between the inner brick and the outer brick.

Gostaria de dedicar este volume a toda uma nova geração de seres humanos que, em nosso milênio, nascem imersos em um mundo onde a inclusão digital é uma das principais frentes de investimento de muitos governos no mundo. Em boa parte das escolas, públicas ou não, a presença do computador já é uma realidade. O governo uruguaio, para citar um caso que conheci de perto, já distribuiu pequenos notebooks à grande maioria das crianças matriculadas na rede pública de ensino: não é incomum se observar antenas wireless nas escolas, o que permite as crianças se conectarem a internet durante as aulas, nos intervalos ou enquanto esperam seus pais à porta do colégio. Acesso aberto sem censuras e sem controle. Eu mesma checava emails na porta de um desses colégios, mas não posso fazer isto (ainda) nas cantinas ou bibliotecas da UNICAMP usando meu laptop.
