AbstractThis study proposes a new method for the uncertainty estimation of coseismic slip distribution on the plate interface deduced from real-time global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data and explores its application for tsunami inundation prediction. Jointly developed by the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan and Tohoku University, REGARD (REal-time GEONET Analysis system for Rapid Deformation monitoring) estimates coseismic fault models (a single rectangular fault model and slip distribution model) in real time to support tsunami prediction. The estimated results are adopted as part of the Disaster Information System, which is used by the Cabinet Office of the Government of Japan to assess tsunami inundation and damage. However, the REGARD system currently struggles to estimate the quantitative uncertainty of the estimated result, although the obtained result should contain both observation and modeling errors caused by the model settings. Understanding such quantitative uncertainties based on the input data is essential for utilizing this resource for disaster response. We developed an algorithm that estimates the coseismic slip distribution and its uncertainties using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. We focused on the Nankai Trough of southwest Japan, where megathrust earthquakes have repeatedly occurred, and used simulation data to assume a Hoei-type earthquake. We divided the 2951 rectangular subfaults on the plate interface and designed a multistage sampling flow with stepwise perturbation groups. As a result, we successfully estimated the slip distribution and its uncertainty at the 95% confidence interval of the posterior probability density function. Furthermore, we developed a new visualization procedure that shows the risk of tsunami inundation and the probability on a map. Under the algorithm, we regarded the Markov chain Monte Carlo samples as individual fault models and clustered them using the k-means approach to obtain different tsunami source scenarios. We then calculated the parallel tsunami inundations and integrated the results on the map. This map, which expresses the uncertainties of tsunami inundation caused by uncertainties in the coseismic fault estimation, offers quantitative and real time insights into possible worst-case scenarios.

AbstractEnglish is regarded as a compulsory subject in Bangladesh, which learning starts at the very early stage of a learner. However, after spending almost 12 years in learning English, learners’ oral skill is not seen up to the mark when they enter the university for tertiary education. Sometimes, they are noticed to have their unwillingness to communicate with others. Hence, the current study aims to explore the experiences of Bangladeshi university students’ willingness to communicate (WTC) by employing a multiple case study method. 10 undergraduate students from a private university were interviewed. Apart from semi-structured interview, classroom observations were also carried out for data collection. The obtained data were analysed through the content analysis process. The findings show that students’ earlier experiences of learning English have been positive; however, they think grammar-based English learning is an obstacle in the development of their oral communication. The study also reveals that learners’ WTC is greatly influenced by classroom environment that enhances or declines their interest to communicate with others. Based on the findings, the study suggests that incorporating more drills in English classes by engaging learners with real-life based conversations, dialogues and so forth can enhance learners’ WTC. Hence, learners’ real voice would help the policymakers and language instructors to take the issue into consideration and way-out timely measures.
GIS and remote sensing coupled with analytical hierarchy process (AHP) for the selection of appropriate sites for landfills: a case study in the province of Ouarzazate, Morocco

Published: February 2022

AbstractThe province of Ouarzazate has a population of 10,744 and is divided into 17 communes (15 rural communes and 2 urban communes), the majority of which have a population of less than 2000 people. Currently, more than 42% of the total population does not have access to a controlled landfill that meets all the socio-environmental criteria defined by Law 28-00 and its implementing regulations. The most typical landfills are located in small villages that resemble illegal dumps or dark areas close to the inhabitants. Moreover, in 2009, a controlled landfill was established near the city of Ouarzazate. Over time, urban extensions tend to move towards the site of the landfill following the development plans of the city, which influences the environmental life and health of the new population. Indeed, this landfill is considered to be located in the wrong place according to the results of our study; it does not meet all the main socio-environmental criteria. For these reasons, this study was conducted to identify appropriate landfill sites and waste transfer centers using geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing coupled with multi-criteria evaluation techniques such as AHP. Eleven criteria were selected, including distance to protected areas, wind direction, subsurface geology, lineament density, distance to surface water (river systems and dams), soil quality, distance to roads, elevation, and slope. The rasters of all the criteria were prepared, processed, and overlaid in the GIS environment by assigning each parameter its weight according to its importance. In the field, five sites have been provisionally selected, but only sites D and B have been given higher priority because of their geographical location, large surface area, geological imperviousness, zero risks, better soil quality, distance from any protection zone, any water point or hydrographic network, and their accessibility by provincial roads. These sites are located very close to the province’s waste hubs, which helps reduce the cost of transporting waste to the new landfill.

Published: February 2022

Introduction/AimsSelf-harm is a growing issue and remains a complex phenomenon in contemporary society. Understanding this behaviour may present challenges to staff providing care and support to patients who self-harm. There is an absence of a detailed review on staff attitudes, beliefs and responses towards self-harm. The aim of this review was to explore and critically appraise research on how staff attitudes impact on care provision.MethodsElectronic databases were searched and relevant literature were critically analysed to gather evidence to address this review.ResultsThis review identified lack of training, staff support and limited resources as contributory factors to negative attitudes and hostility towards self-harm patients.ConclusionsReasons for self-harm may be misconstrued, resulting to unhelpful responses and patients being ascribed stigmatising labels. Understanding factors that contribute to these unhelpful responses allows for the development of core strategies that enhances effective care.

Published: February 2022

Introduction This study aimed to assess the trend of percutaneous and open surgical procedures for peripheral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) performed in NHS hospitals in England between 2012 and 2018. Methods Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) is a freely available data warehouse that represents the whole population of England served by the NHS. Data from the HES database was obtained and analysed for all hospital episodes between 2012 and 2018 for the total number and trend of ‘primary diagnosis’, and ‘primary procedures and interventions’ identified for peripheral AVMs. Results Over the period studied, there was an increase in the total number of admissions for peripheral AVMs; total primary diagnosis increased from 2242 to 2857 per year. Open surgery remained more commonly performed than percutaneous procedures throughout the studied period. However, the overall percentage of primary procedures and interventions being percutaneous in this period increased from 29.8% to 41.0% per year. The increase in the number of percutaneous procedures per year seemed to occur in both children (from 43 to 124) and adults (from 408 to 492) over the course of the study period. Conclusions This study concluded that open surgery remained the most commonly performed primary procedure for peripheral AVMs, although there was an increasing trend for percutaneous procedures in NHS hospitals in England. The increase in the number and percentage of percutaneous procedures for peripheral AVMs was likely to have significant resource implications for the provision of care for patients with peripheral AVMs in NHS hospitals.
PRÁTICAS DE CUIDADO DE SI DE HOMENS FRENTE AO ADOECIMENTO CRÔNICO: REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA

Published: February 2022

O homem traz consigo estereótipos enraizados há séculos em nossa culturapatriarcal, cujas práticas se baseiam em crenças e valores do que é ser masculino. A doença é considerada um sinal de fraqueza, pois a força masculina se ampara a ideia de invulnerabilidade. Nesse sentido, os homens na nossa sociedade têm o problema de reconhecer suas necessidades, cultivando o pensamento mágico da (im) possibilidade de adoecer (Figueredo, 2017).

Wie der Mensch zu Gottes Ebenbild wurde. Demokratisierungsprozesse im antiken Israel
Authors: Schmid Konrad 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
With the idea in Genesis 1 that all human beings are created in the image of God - instead of just the king - the Bible formulates an early conceptual prerequisite of egalitarianism, which forms the anthropological foundation of any democracy. Genesis 1 democratizes the traditional ideology of kingship and renders every human capable of (king-like) responsible rule. Important factors in the intellectual history of ancient Israel that prepared the way for the idea of the likeness of all human beings to God can be found: (1) in the subversive reception of Assyrian treaty theology and its transfer to the relationship between God and people; (2) in the criticism of kings within biblical prophecy, which was confirmed as factual by the fall of Judah and Jerusalem in 587 BCE; and (3) in the increasingly critical stance toward slavery in the Torah, which ideally brought the position of slaves ever closer to that of free people.

Becoming a citizen: Education, Politics and Developmental Psychology
Abstract: Considering the Honnethian thesis that there is today a disconnexion between Education and Politics, and asserting a strong link between these fields in the thought of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in this work we present some aspects of how, for him, it is possible for a human, as a member of the species, to become a citizen. Then, relying on Nussbaum's critique of the fact that many educational proposals do not make developmental psychology explicit, we suggest a link between Education, Politics and psychological ideas in Rousseau. Ahead, we bring elements of Jean Piaget's psychogenetic research, proposing that this type of research allows a strengthening of the nexus between the fields of Education, Politics and, now, Developmental Psychology, contributing to the still current discussion about becoming a citizen.

Preterm twins with antenatal presentation of Pearson syndrome
Authors: Castro Leonor , Ferreira Ana C. , Cohen Álvaro , Macedo Israel J. , Tomé Teresa 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

Objectives
Pearson syndrome is a mitochondrial cytopathy with multisystemic involvement that typically presents in infancy and has poor prognosis. We aim to present a case that is distinct due to the timing of presentation and associated anomalies.

Case presentation
We report the case of preterm monochorionic twins with transfusion dependent fetal anemia that had post-natal multisystem dysfunction which led to the diagnosis of Pearson syndrome.

Conclusions
This case highlights the possibility of antenatal presentation of Pearson syndrome, which should be considered in cases of severe fetal anemia without an apparent cause.
Transformation behavior of two Ni–Mn–Ga alloys

Published: February 2022

Abstract
The transformation behavior of Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 and Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 was studied with ac magnetic susceptibility, differential scanning calorimetry, in-situ optical microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The liquidus, solidus and L21⟶B2’ temperatures were detected for the alloys. The transformation enthalpies of melting, solidification and martensitic/reverse reactions were determined. In Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 the magnetic transition was clearly below the parent to martensite phase transformation and did not have hysteresis. The transformation sequence is suggested as Pparam ⟶Tparam ⟶ Tferrom with reverse reactions in respective order. In Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 the temperatures of the magnetic transition and structural phase transformations are close to each other and the Curie temperature shows a hysteresis of 9 K during cooling-heating cycle. Based on the combined measurements, the transformation sequences are assumed to be during cooling Pparam ⟶ 7Mparam ⟶ 7Mferrom ⟶ Tferrom and Tferrom ⟶ Tparam ⟶ 7Mparam ⟶ Pparam during heating. Consequently, the hysteresis in the magnetic transition is explained with the intermartensitic reaction and the difference of the Curie points of 7M and T phases.
Nanophotonics-inspired all-silicon waveguide platforms for terahertz integrated systems

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Recent advances in silicon (Si) microphotonics have enabled novel devices for the terahertz (THz) range based on dielectric waveguides. In the past couple of years, dielectric waveguides have become commonplace for THz systems to mitigate issues in efficiency, size, and cost of integration and packaging using metal-based waveguides. Therefore, THz systems have progressively evolved from cumbersome collections of discreet components to THz-wave integrated circuits. This gradual transition of THz systems from numerous components to compact integrated circuits has been facilitated at each step by incredible advances in all-Si waveguides allowing low-loss, low dispersion, and single-mode waveguiding operation. As such, all-Si waveguides position themselves as highly efficient interconnects to realize THz integrated circuits and further large-scale integration in the THz range. This review article intends to reevaluate the evolution stages of THz integrated circuits and systems based on all-Si waveguides.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSC) offer a promising solution for building integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) due to its high photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE). However, increasing the transparency of their functional layers dramatically decreases the PCE. Here, a computer controlled laser patterning method was proposed to directly turn PSC modules into semitransparent and with aesthetic artificial pattern, without additional complexities to the conventional PSCs fabrication process. A structured ST-PSC achieving a champion PCE of 17.5% with average visible transparency (AVT) of 18.2%, and a mini-module with 5 × 5 cm2 delivering a PCE of 9.1% with AVT of 37.7% were demonstrated. Rationally designed aesthetic patterns were imprinted on mini-modules, achieving a PCE of 14.4%. These results reveal a new route for low-cost facile fabricating high performance large-area aesthetic BIPV modules, and represent a big step forward toward the fabrication of solar cells with high efficiency and high transparency.

Abstract
Impression creep testing is now an established, small-scale testing technique in which the indentation rate of a rectangular indenter can be converted into an equivalent uniaxial creep strain rate. Its increasing use and practical application to power plants has led to a need for standardization. This paper reports on activity by six laboratories currently using the technique to produce a CEN Workshop Agreement covering this testing methodology. Consensus is being sought on the details of the test itself, both in the form of the original single step test and in the form of the more complex stepped stress test, which can provide data at multiple test conditions in the same specimen. Associated matters being addressed include the standardization of specimen and indenter sizes; a standard methodology for measuring the indentation rate and the creep strain rate, with an appropriate validity check; and an agreement on a pretest rig hysteresis check. A further activity will define a maximum indentation depth, supported by finite element analysis. The agreed impression creep test procedure will be used in an interlaboratory “Round Robin” exercise on selected materials.

AbstractThe International Atomic Energy Agency implements safeguard measures to verify the compliance of Member States to their international legal obligations using nuclear material and technology only for peaceful purposes. These safeguard measures, i.a., include analytical measurements of individual micrometer- and submicrometer particles taken by the IAEA on swipe samples during safeguard inspections at nuclear facilities. To ensure the quality control of the analytical results from particle analysis and to further develop mass spectrometric analysis methods, microparticles with well-defined properties as microparticulate reference materials are required. Therefore, mixed lanthanide/uranium oxide microparticles were produced as a first step towards composite reference materials with small amounts of fission products, Pu or Th. A deep understanding of the incorporation mechanisms of dopants into U3O8 structure is essential in this regard. Therefore, bulk-scale comparison materials were produced and doped with lanthanides by co-precipitation methods and systematically investigated by TG, XRD, and Raman. These results will be integrated into the particle production process to design well-defined microparticulate mixed-oxide reference materials.
