Female pelvic shape: Distinct types or nebulous cloud?
Authors: Kuliukas Algis , Kuliukas Lesley , Franklin Daniel , Flavel Ambika 
Published: July 2015

The objective of this study was to re-evaluate the Caldwell-Moloy (1933) classification of female pelvic shape, which has been traditionally, and still is currently, taught to students of midwifery and medicine. Using modern pelvimetric methodologies and geometric morphometric (GM) analysis techniques, we aim to elucidate whether these classic female pelvic types are an accurate reflection of the real morphometric variation present in the female human pelvis. GM analysis was carried out on sets of pelvic landmarks from scans of women living in a contemporary Western Australian population. Sixty-four anonymous female multi-detector computer tomography (MDCT) scans were used for most of the study and 51 male scans were also examined for comparison. Principle component analysis (PCA) found that there was no obvious clustering into the four distinct types of pelvis (gynaecoid, anthropoid, android and platypelloid) in the Caldwell-Moloy classification, but rather an amorphous, cloudy continuum of shape variation. Until more data is collected to confirm or deny the statistical significance of this shape variation, it is recommended that teachers and authors of midwifery, obstetrics and gynaecological texts be more cautious about continuing to promote the Caldwell-Moloy classification, as our results show no support for the long taught ‘four types’ of pelvis.
Paediatric death and dying: exploring coping strategies of health professionals and perceptions of support provision
Authors: Forster Elizabeth , Hafiz Alaa 
Published: July 2015

Without question a child's death is a devastating event for parents and families. Health professionals working with the dying child and family draw upon their expertise and experience to engage with children, parents and families on this painful journey. This is a delicate and sensitive area of practice and has strong and penetrating effects on health professionals. They employ physical, emotional, spiritual and problem solving strategies to continue to perform this role effectively and to protect their continued sense of wellbeing. Aim: To explore health professionals' perceptions of bereavement support surrounding the loss of a child. Methods: The research was underpinned by social constructionism. Semi-structured interviews were held with 10 health professionals including doctors, nurses and social workers who were directly involved in the care of the dying child and family in 7 cases of paediatric death. Health professional narratives were analysed consistent with Charmarz's (2006) approach. Results: For health professionals, constructions around coping emerged as peer support, personal coping strategies, family support, physical impact of support and spiritual beliefs. Analysis of the narratives also revealed health professionals' perceptions of their support provision. Conclusion: Health professionals involved in caring for dying children and their families use a variety of strategies to cope with the emotional and physical toll of providing support. They also engage in self-assessment to evaluate their support provision and this highlights the need for self-evaluation tools in paediatric palliative care.

Considerations about the relation between occlusal trauma and periodontal/peri-implant disease
Authors: Junqueira Rafael Binato , Saavedra Guilherme de Siqueira F. Anzaloni , De Macedo Nelson Luiz 
Published: July 2015

The occlusal trauma is an injury to the insertion apparatus as a result of excessive occlusal force, and its interaction with periodontal/peri-implant disease remains controversial topic in the literature. The aim of this study was to review the literature about the relationship between occlusal trauma and periodontal/peri-implant disease, through an analysis of experimental studies in humans and animals, as well as systematic reviews that discussed the role of occlusal factor as etiological or aggravating periodontal/peri-implant disease. It was concluded that, although not considered a cause for the development of periodontitis and peri-implantitis, occlusal trauma can exacerbate bone loss around the teeth or implants. Moreover, the diversity of methodologies in studies on the subject might contribute to the conflicting results available, highlighting the importance of standardization and more detailed research criteria.

Published: July 2015

Abstract
Currently there is a constant development in the field of aluminium alloys engineering. This results from, i.a., better understanding of the mechanisms that direct strengthening of these alloys and the role of microalloying. Now it is microalloying in aluminum alloys that is receiving a lot of attention. It affects substantially the macro- and microstructure and kinetics of phase transformation influencing the properties during production and its exploitation. 7xxx series aluminum alloys, based on the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu system, are high-strength alloys, moreover, the presence of Zr and Sr further increases their strength and improves resistance to cracking.
This study aims to present the changes of the properties, depending on the alloy chemical composition and the macro- and microstructure. Therefore, the characteristics in the field of hardness, tensile strength, yield strength and elongation are shown on selected examples. Observations were made on ingot samples obtained by semi-continuous casting, in the homogenized state.
Samples were prepared from aluminum alloys in accordance with PN-EN 573-3: 2013. The advantage of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys are undoubtedly good strength, Light-weight and resistance to corrosion. As widening of the already published studies it is sought to demonstrate the repeatability of the physical parameters in the whole volume of the sample.

Dual Weighted Residual Error Control for Frictional Contact Problems
Authors: Rademacher Andreas , Schröder Andreas 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In this paper goal-oriented error control based on the dual weighted residual error method (DWR) is applied to frictional contact problems. The derivation of DWR error controls is done for arbitrary discretization schemes
via the introduction of some discrete Lagrange multipliers describing the residual of the discretization.
The discrete Lagrange multipliers may be provided by a reconstruction in a post-processing step or by a discretization of a mixed formulation in which they are directly available. The error controls are defined for user-defined functionals (the quantities of interest) which
measure the error of the displacement field as well as the normal and tangential contact forces.
Numerical experiments confirm the applicability of the estimates within adaptive schemes.
The use of the axiophyte species concept to describe the ecological network of the Birmingham and Black Country of the UK West Midlands
Authors: Trueman Ian C. , Carvalho Sara , Slater Andrew 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The UK conurbation of Birmingham and the Black Country has recently been surveyed for a new Flora, on the basis of a 1 km square grid. The present paper uses the data to describe the ecological network of the conurbation. The total number of taxa per 1 km squares is shown to be moderately but significantly correlated, and the number of native taxa more strongly correlated, with the area of the previously-established network of protected sites. Nevertheless coincidence maps of total numbers or numbers of native species per 1 km square give only poor representations of the ecological network compared with maps of protected sites. Axiophytes are defined as plant species 90% restricted to conservation habitats and recorded in fewer than 25% of 2km × 2km squares in a county. Applying the concept to 1 km squares in Birmingham and the Black Country creates a list of 256 axiophytes. Numbers of axiophytes are shown to be more strongly correlated with areas of protected sites than total taxa or native taxa and a coincidence map of the axiophytes is found to provide a useful quantitative assessment of the ecological network. Maps of axiophytes are used to divide the network into core and linking areas and their use in consolidating and improving the botanical ecological network is explored.
Approaches to teaching high school students about environmental protection in the Greater Bielsko-Biała Metropolitan Area (Poland)
Authors: Tomczewska-Popowycz Natalia 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to assess the level of knowledge about local environmental protection among high school students in Bielsko-Biała and the surrounding areas. This sort of knowledge is part of the curriculum and is covered in various natural science school courses, such as geography, biology, chemistry, and social sciences. Various laws and regulations mandate that ecology is part of the secondary education curriculum – “Podstawa programowa kształcenia ogólnego” (2002, 2008 a, b). The Bielsko-Biała area is known for its valuable natural resources and natural attractions. It is home to twelve protected natural areas, including: two sanctuaries, two scenic landscape parks, four nature and landscape complexes, two unique endangered ecosystems, and two protected Natura 2000 areas, as well as 62 natural landmarks. The present paper presents results of a study that was conducted by means of a survey of Bielsko-Biała’s high school students with respect to their knowledge about these protected natural areas. The results of the study revealed that the vast majority of the students do not take an interest in environmental protection issues. Moreover, the high school students displayed unsatisfactory knowledge about the protected natural areas around their city. The survey revealed that the study subjects were unable to identify the types of natural protected areas surrounding their city, let alone list or name the specific sanctuaries or natural landmarks. These disappointing findings generalize for both the students who live in Bielsko-Biała, and those who live in the distant northern provinces of the region. The results of the study stress the need for field trips and other programs aimed at advancing students’ knowledge in this area. The need to incentivize teachers to organize field trips and other events of this kind is also highlited.
Frequency and temperature dependence of dielectric and electric properties of Ba2-xSm4+2x/3Ti8O24 with structural analysis

Published: July 2015

Abstract
Dielectric ceramics samples of barium titanium oxide doped with samarium, having a complex structural formula of Ba2-xSm4+2x/3Ti8O24 (referred to as BST), were fabricated by a high temperature solid-state reaction technique with varying x (0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6). X-ray diffraction technique was used to check the formation of particular phases. Scanning electron microscope technique was used to study the surface morphology of the samples. The samples were studied in a temperature range of 298 K to 623 K and frequency range of 10 KHz to 1 MHz. The dielectric constant (εr), loss tangent (tan δ), and AC conductivity (σAC) were measured on sintered disks of BST samples. The DC resistivity of different compositions was measured at room temperature. Detailed studies of dielectric and electrical properties showed that these properties are strongly dependent on composition, frequency and temperature. The compounds showed stable behavior in lower temperature range (up to 523 K), therefore, they can be used in practical applications in this temperature range.

Internet usage styles and attitudes toward globalization
Authors: Senejko Alicja , Chmielewska-Łuczak Dorota , Łoś Zbigniew 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Our article discusses the research results aimed at finding relations between Internet usage styles and attitudes toward globalization. The research included 597 people, aged 15 to 39 years, from Poland by using two methods: 1) The World-I Questionnaire (by A. Senejko, Z. Łoś) to diagnose attitudes toward globalization (accepting, critical, fearful); 2) The Internet-Interpersonal Relations Questionnaire (by D. Chmielewska-Łuczak) – diagnoses four categories of Internet usage styles (distanced, frustrated, omnipotent, ambivalent).
The research was based on an idiographic analysis focused on the results obtained for the specific people under examination.
The results revealed the relationships between the distanced and omnipotent Internet usage styles and the accepting attitude toward globalization; between the frustrated style and the critical attitude; and between the ambivalent style and the fearful attitude toward globalization. The ensuing discussion can be used to increase Internet user awareness that it is necessary to look for a strategy for coping with the challenges posed by the Internet that is best adjusted to a particular individual. The competence in choosing such an appropriate strategy is a valuable asset for any contemporary manager who would like to target his or her offer at a variety of customers representing different Internet usage styles.
Flexural Fatigue performance of Alkali Activated Slag Concrete mixes incorporating Copper Slag as Fine Aggregate

Published: July 2015

Abstract
The present investigation attempts a detailed study of mechanical properties and fatigue characteristics of a new class of Alkali Activated Slag Concrete (AASC) mixes incorporating Copper Slag (CS) as fine aggregates. The natural river sand is replaced with Copper Slag, upto 100% (by volume) as fine aggregate in these AASC mixes. The behavior of plain concrete prisms, cast with this range of AASC mixes under dynamic cyclic loads with sand/CS fine aggregates is studied and is compared with conventional OPC-based concrete specimens. The results indicate that incorporation of CS even upto 100% as fine aggregates, did not have any adverse effects on the mechanical properties of AASC mixes. The AASC mixes with CS displayed slightly better fatigue performance as compared to AASC mix with river sand. An attempt is also made herein to statistically describe the fatigue life data of AASC mixes using a 2-parameter Weibull distribution.

Authors: Demirci Kadir , Akgönül Mehmet , Akpinar Abdullah 
Published: July 2015

Background and aims
The usage of smartphones has increased rapidly in recent years, and this has brought about addiction. The aim of the current study was to investigate the relationship between smartphone use severity and sleep quality, depression, and anxiety in university students.

Methods
In total, 319 university students (203 females and 116 males; mean age = 20.5 ± 2.45) were included in the study. Participants were divided into the following three groups: a smartphone non-user group (n = 71, 22.3%), a low smartphone use group (n = 121, 37.9%), and a high smartphone use group (n = 127, 39.8%). All participants were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory; moreover, participants other than those in the smartphone non-user group were also assessed with the Smartphone Addiction Scale.

Results
The findings revealed that the Smartphone Addiction Scale scores of females were significantly higher than those of males. Depression, anxiety, and daytime dysfunction scores were higher in the high smartphone use group than in the low smartphone use group. Positive correlations were found between the Smartphone Addiction Scale scores and depression levels, anxiety levels, and some sleep quality scores.

Conclusions
The results indicate that depression, anxiety, and sleep quality may be associated with smartphone overuse. Such overuse may lead to depression and/or anxiety, which can in turn result in sleep problems. University students with high depression and anxiety scores should be carefully monitored for smartphone addiction.

El resurgir de la mujer fatal en publicidad: La reinvención de un mito
Authors: Hidalgo-Marí Tatiana 
Published: June 2015

<p>La representación de la “mujer fatal” es una imagen muy utilizada a la hora de poner en escena a la mujer en publicidad. El carácter seductor y persuasivo de este estereotipo femenino encaja perfectamente en la idiosincrasia publicitaria que pretende persuadir y/o seducir al receptor para motivarle la predisposición a la pieza. No obstante, la forma en que se representa la mujer fatal en publicidad se aleja, en muchos casos, de la esencia clásica que sustentó al arquetipo tradicional. Este artículo pretende dejar constancia de cómo se representa la mujer fatal en publicidad, cómo se distorsiona el carácter formal de dicho arquetipo y se exponen nuevos reflejos de mujeres fatales, siendo éstas copias inexactas del arquetipo tradicional que las sustenta.</p>
