Comparison of Mechanical and Interfacial Properties on Chemical Structures of Acrylic and Epoxy Adhesives

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

접착제는 구조물에 두 가지 복합재료를 연결하는 데 사용된다. 과거의 연결방식인 볼트, 리벳, 그리고 핫 멜트 방식과는 다르게 접착제의 경우 위와 같은 재료를 필요로 하지 않는다. 이는 복합재료의 경량화 및 연결부위로 인한 응력 집중점이 없다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 아크릴계 및 비스페놀-A형 에폭시계 접착제, 더 나아가 탄소나노튜브 강화재를 투입했을 때에 기계적 및 계면특성을 파악하였다. 접착제 자체의 기계적 강도 변화를 보았고, 전단 및 전단 피로실험을 통하여 물리적 특성을 파악하였다. 전단 실험 후에 파단면을 반사현미경을 통하여 관찰하였다. 실험결과 비스페놀-A계 에폭시 접착제를 사용했을 때의 인장강도 및 기계적 피로 저항성이 아크릴 접착제 보다 좋은 것을 확인했다. 또한 탄소나노튜브 입자를 에폭시 접착제에 첨가했을 때 기계적 향상을 확인했다. An adhesive can be used to connect two different materials in structures. In comparing with other connecting methods, such as bolt, rivet, and hot melting, the adhesive does not need to use them. It leads to reduce the weight and decrease the stress concentration along the connecting line. This work studied the comparison of mechanical and interfacial properties of commonly-used two adhesives, acrylic type and bisphenol-A epoxy type. Tensile and flexural strength of neat adhesives were also compared. Lap shear test of two adhesives was deduced from the measurement of tensile and fatigue tests. After testing, the failure patterns of adhesive surfaces were observed by a microscope. Tensile strength and mechanical fatigue resistance at using bisphenol-A epoxy adhesive were better than acrylic adhesive. Also adding CNT reinforcement in epoxy adhesive can anticipate mechanical improvement.

Examining the antecedents of shopping excitement and affiliation intentions in shopping malls

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

In response to our limited understanding of the role of servicescape and socialscape in influencing customer-to-customer interactions (Nicholls, 2010), this paper examines the effect of servicescape, socialscape, personal aspects (i.e. involvement) and other mall-related factors (i.e. tenant variety) on shopping excitement and affiliation intentions. A total of 403 valid responses were collected by the means of a survey, using a systematic sample from four regional shopping malls to avoid the single-site limitation in the extant literature. The data was analysed by the means of PLS-SEM. The findings showed that shopping involvement, tenant variety and ambient, rather than design and social, aspects were found associated with shopping excitement. Interestingly, pleasantness of music, design and social aspects were found to encourage affiliation intentions, while perceptions of other ambient factors (e.g. lighting, scent) were found to discourage these intentions. Shopping excitement was found to be the dominant driver of affiliation intentions.
[A study of family support, health state and medical care among functionally dependent elderly in Shanghai, China].

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The effect of family caregiver's attitudes to elderly on health conditions of functionally dependent elderly, relationships between family support and perceived burden among family caregivers, and factors related to family support were analyzed. Support in this study was defined as help directed at helping functionally dependent elderly achieve independence or self-care. In 1989, a survey was conducted of family caregivers in Shanghai. Functionally dependent elderly were collected by screening of people aged 65 years old and over, and family caregivers who were able to provide support as defined above were included as subjects (n = 468). The following results were obtained: 1. Caregivers with positive attitudes for support had a higher proportion having the ability to obtain physician care compared to those with low family support. The proportion of persons with bedfast condition, cognitive impairment, and abnormal behaviors did not appear to have a relationships to level of family support. 2. There was only a weak relation between family support and perceived burden scale of caregivers. 3. Among all factors, the strongest relationship to family support was with educational background. The health of caregivers and the family relationship between caregivers and functionally dependent elderly were also related to level of family support.
Re-Visiting the Site of the Former Soviet Prison Camp in Tambov

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article examines visits by French people to the former Soviet prison camp in Tambov, Russia, where Alsatians-Mosellans men were imprisoned during World War II. Because the memory of these prisoners of war, conscripted by force into the German army during the war is disappearing together with the witnesses, some survivors organized in the 1990s journeys to the Tambov former prison camp, called “pilgrimages.“ There are currently two kinds of pilgrimages: pilgrimages for survivors of the camp and their close relatives and pilgrimages for grandchildren of former Tambov inmates. This article suggests that the pilgrims, confronting their past, are engaged with a process of identity making, and that pilgrimage provides pilgrims with the opportunity to confront their grief for the dead or their sense of injustice and to let go of the past. The article concludes that with the pilgrimage the value of Tambov as a place of death is re-evaluated.
The prevalence and the risk factors of the cervical colonization by the genital mycoplasmas among pregnant women from Eastern Croatia.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of the genital mycoplasmas cervical colonization among the pregnant women from the Eastern Croatia and to evaluate its correlation with the demographic and the behavioural risk factors. Study was conducted from March 2010 to April 2011 at the Microbiology Department of the Institute of Public Health for the Osijek-Baranja County. The study included 456 pregnant women in the first and the second trimester of pregnancy. Demographic data and data on their possible risk behaviour during the lifetime were collected with the usage of an anonymous questionnaire consisting of the 16 questions. The Mycoplasma Duo kit test was used to diagnose the mycoplasma infections. Due to the fact that the results were generally similar for the women with U. urealyticum or M. hominis and in order to dichotomize the analyses, 164 (36%) participants with U. urealyticum, M. hominis or both were considered positive, whereas 292 (64%) participants without U. urealyticum or M. hominis were considered negative. A higher genital mycoplasmas prevalence was statistically significantly associated with the younger group of the pregnant women (16-29 y), 5 or more sexual partners during lifetime and the age on the first intercourse < or = 16. The study has showed that both the demographic and the behavioural risk factors were associated with the higher genital mycoplasmas colonization in the observed population.
Numerical analysis of the vertex models for simulating grain boundary networks

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Polycrystalline materials undergoing coarsening can be represented as evolving networks of grain boundaries, whose statistical characteristics determine macroscopic materials properties. The process of formation of various statistical distributions is extremely complex and is strongly influenced by topological changes in the network. This work is an attempt to elucidate the role of these changes by conducting a thorough numerical investigation of one of the simplest types of grain growth simulation models, called vertex models. While having obvious limitations in terms of its ability to represent realistic systems, the vertex model enables full control over topological transitions and retains essential geometric features of the network. We formulate a self-consistent vertex model and investigate the role of microscopic parameters on the mesoscale network behavior. This study sheds light onto several important questions, such as how statistics are affected by the choice of temporal and spatial resolution and rules governing topological changes. Statistical analysis of the data produced by the simulation is performed for both isotropic and anisotropic grain boundary energy.

Evaluation of the Diagnostic Value of Abdominal Sonographic Measurement of Lower Uterine Segment Thickness in Uterine Rupture during Caesarean Section and Determine its Associated Factors

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction:The measurement of the lower uterine segment (LUS) thickness before labor predicts hazardous complications of vaginal birth after cesarean section (VBAC). Vaginal birth after cesarean is one of the most effective methods used to reduce the incidence of cesarean section. Therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate the diagnostic value of sonographic measurement of lower uterine segment (LUS) thickness in uterine rupture during cesarean section and its associated factors in women with and without previous cesarean section. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted among 168 pregnant women in two groups of with and without the history of cesarean section (84 individuals per group) referred to Ardabil Alavi Hospital, Ardabil, Iran, in 2016. The thickness of the LUS was determined through transabdominal ultrasonography between the gestational ages of 36 to 40 weeks. At the time of cesarean section, the thickness of the women’s LUS and newborns’ weight and Apgar score were measured and recorded. Additionally, uterine rupture was recorded in patients with the past history of cesarean section. Moreover, the relationship between the LUS thickness and maternal age, gestational age, the indication for previous cesarean section, interdelivery interval, embryo weight, and abnormalities of erythrocyte were determined. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and t-test in SPSS software, version 16. Results: According to the pre-operative assessments, the LUS thickness in the women with and without the history of cesarean section were 4.26±1.99 mm and 6.11±1.6 mm, respectively (P˂0.001). According to the findings obtained from sonography before and during the operation, there was a significant difference between the groups in terms of LUS thickness (P 0.05). Based on the results, the LUS thickness of 1.8 mm was considered as the critical cutoff value for predicting uterine rupture. Conclusion: The measurement ofLUS thickness is a non-invasive technique to predict the uterine rupture, which leads to increased rate of VBAC.
Temporal structure in the speech of persons with Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type (DAT)

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Although cognitive and language processes in dementia have been studied extensively, the question of motor speech degeneration in the course of dementing illness is a relatively unexplored area. The potential for early dissociation of motor functions of language at the level of speech production has not been explored; an interaction between motor speech and language production and perception changes should inform our understanding of the deterioration in dementia. In previous reports on two persons with DAT, we have shown inconsistent final lengthening and effects of syllable-final consonant voicing on vowel duration for one of the two speakers. We recorded one of the speakers again, and his speech was markedly slower. In this report, we expand our analysis to include three additional persons with mild-to-moderate DAT, from whom a series of 4-word phrases containing a target word occurring in phrase-medial or phrase final position was elicited. We will present the results of our analysis of final lengthening, compensatory shortening, and the effects of final consonant voicing on vowel duration.
A Review on Management of Psychosis using Pharmacological Strategies

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Psychosis are very common in medical problem about Forty percent of the people that, have anxiety or depression which are associated to physical illness. By which, psychiatric problem is an important part of medical attention and many people usually have psychiatric drugs associated to other treatments. In reality, research which is to be done in Nineteen Seventy-Four demonstrated that integrated therapy (i.e. combined use of medication and psychotherapy) is not harmful to the patient, but is actually useful. However, the conflict between pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy had already made a great disservice to patients, sometimes delaying the required drug treatment (e.g. the importance of duration of untreated psychosis for the prognosis of schizophrenia) or other avoiding effective psychological interventions that could lead to a better quality of life and reduce the risk of suicide. This may be the case when considering dialectical behaviour therapy or exposure and response prevention techniques in cognitive behavioural therapy for borderline personality disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder, respectively. Unfortunately, today, despite a muchvaunted integration of treatments, on the one hand we often deal with reductionist attitudes that judge psychotherapy as irrelevant and consider drug therapy alone sufficient for treatment.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Purpose: To investigate the cytotoxic activity of the essential oil of Chenopodium ambrosioides L. against human breast cancer MCF-7 cells.Methods: Cytotoxicity was characterized by 50 % inhibition (IC50) of human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7) using 3-(4,5-dimethylthaizol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Apoptosis was analysed by Hoechst33258 staining and DNA ladder. MCF-7 cellular superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) vitality and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were evaluated.Results: The essential oil was cytotoxic to MCF-7 cell line. A dose- and time-dependent inhibition was observed with IC50 values of 18.75, 9.45 and 10.50 μg/ml at 6, 24 and 48 h, respectively. Analyses by Hoechst33258 staining and DNA ladder indicate that the essential oil induced apoptosis. SOD vitality significantly decreased (p< 0.05) by 51 % when the concentration of the essential oil increased from 1.25 to 12.5 μg/ml while CAT vitality significantly increased (p < 0.05) by 71 % when essential oil concentration was similarly increased. The MDA content of each treatment group, when compare to control, did not show any significant difference (p < 0.05).Conclusion: The essential oil of C. ambrosioides was cytotoxic to MCF-7 cell line and induced apoptosis.Keywords: Chenopodium ambrosioides L., Essential oil, Cytotoxicity, Apoptosis, Breast cancer, MCF-7 cells.
A Review of Resilience and Long-Term Planning in Power and Water Systems in the United States

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

There is recognition among power and water utilities that the frequency and magnitude of high consequence and low probability events could increase as a result of climate change. The interconnected nature of energy-water systems raises the possibility of cascading failures, increasing complexity and risks. Resilience and long-term planning are important ways of weathering the effects of climate change. First, to understand more about resilience, we reviewed existing literature on resilience definitions, metrics, and modeling, focusing on integrated water-power systems. Second, to understand how resilience and planning are being applied in practice, we interviewed utilities and organized, curated, and synthesized the interview data to arrive at several key findings, which are presented here. We found that there is not a consistent definition for resilience, yet it is something that utilities regularly plan for, often with different names and varying methods/measures. However, there is a tangible shift in the industry towards defining and determining measurable resilience metrics. While the exact metrics are a work in progress, utilities are taking steps forward by (1) putting people and culture at the center of resilience, (2) recognizing their own interdependencies, and (3) pursuing better cross-sector collaboration.
PWE-147 Human Herpesvirus and Adenovirus Unique Genetic Sequences Detected in Hepatocellular Cancer Genomes

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most common cause of hepatocellular cancer (HCC) in the western world. HCV is an RNA virus that does not integrate with human DNA and so the oncogenic mechanisms of HCV remain unclear. Next generation sequencing (NGS) provides a flexible platform and generates large amounts of data at a relatively small time and constantly reducing costs. The role of viral infection is well established in the aetiology of a wide range of tumours. In this study we investigate DNA of HCV driven HCC for the possibility of integration of all known viral genomes. Methods Bar-coded DNA libraries from 41 samples of various stages of development of HCC from 6 different patients were sequenced in parallel using NGS. One to two million 74bp reads per genome were generated. The reads were aligned to all known viral genomes downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information using Burrows-Wheeler Aligner (BWA). Reads with mapping scores of < 37 were discarded. Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) was used to test if the sequences that aligned to viral genomes belonged to the human genome or any other viruses apart from the identified virus. Only those reads were the BWA alignment matched the leading BLAST hit were considered Results Six test samples mapped to unique sequences from Human herpesvirus 6. The test samples included a single HCC and 5 pre-malignant nodules from 2 different patients. Six test samples mapped to unique sequences of Human Adenovirus (6/41). The test samples in this case included 4 HCCS and a 2 premalignant nodules from 2 different patients. A single dysplastic nodule mapped to Human papillomavirus. Conclusion DNA from HCV driven HCC was searched for all viral genome sequences only Human Herpes 6, Human Adenovirus and Human pappilomavirus were found in a small number of cases. Further studies are needed to understand their relation to HCV hepatocarcinogenesis. Disclosure of Interest None Declared.
Hypertension Induced by Extensive Medial Anteromedian Hypothalamic Destruction in the Rat

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

1. Extensive lesions in medial anteromedian hypothalamus induced severe to moderate hypertension in Wistar rats. 2. Sites of lesions indispensable to the production of hypertension proved to be anterior hypothalamic area, ventromedial nucleus, anteromedian part of arcuate nucleus and periventricular nucleus located medial to these nuclei, while the lesions involving pituitary stalk, posterior portion of arcuate nucleus and large portions of mammillary region prevented the development. 3. This hypertension was potentiated by, or in some instances, dependent on salt loading. 4. In the hypertensive animals, remark-able adrenal hypertrophy was present in association with increased plasma corticosterone. Increase in plasma corticosterone was also detected in the hypothalamus-lesioned animals in the early hypertensive stage. 5. Adrenal glomerular zone was atrophied in many rats, subjected to medial anteromedian hypothalamic destructions. 6. Renal lesions, such as thickened capsules and basement membranes of proximal convolutions, often resulting in tubular deteriorations and cystic dilations, were observed in the animals with medial anteromedian hypothalamic lesions, regardless of whether they were hypertensive or not. 7. Vascular lesions detected in the rats which developed hypertension following hypothalamic lesions, were periarteritis nodosa, arteriolar necrosis, productive arteriolitis with or without fibrinoid necrosis and glomerular necrosis. 8. It is concluded that the augmented adrenocortical secretion, probably in conse-quence of eliminated corticoids feed-back mechanism due to hypothalamic lesions, plays the major role in the pathogenesis of this hypertension.
