Abstract:
The interactions of a Spanish football team of the Second A (10 official games) are analyzed, evaluating possible behavioral patterns that appear in a regular way in high level football. Observational methodology was used, by Polar Coordinates Analysis, to discover and evaluate the relationships generated between a considered focal behavior and the different conditioned categories, describing behavioral masses among the players. The matches were observed and recorded with an ad hoc observation instrument. The relations of dual character between the players taken as (focal behaviors) right midfielder and forward and the other players (conditioned conducts) were analyzed. The results show differences in the relationship established based on the outcome of the match. Matches that end with a favorable result, the right midfielder takes center stage, as a node of intermediation between the right centre back, left center back, left midfielder, and second striker. In these, the forward is clear receiver in the actions of completion. With the result of the unfavorable match, the connection networks change, generating a network of reciprocal interaction wider and different between the aforementioned player, right midfielder and the rest of the components, with special relation in the players that occupy the right back, left back, right centre back, right winger, left winger, second striker and forward. In these games the striker acquires a role of greater collaboration in the creation in offensive phases, participating as a node in the game network with intermediation functions.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Using fully GPU N-body simulations, we demonstrate for the first time that subhaloes sink and transfer energy via dynamical friction into the centres of dwarf galaxies. This dynamical heating kicks any central massive black hole out to tens of parsecs, especially at early epochs (z = 1.5–3). This mechanism helps explain the observed off-centre black holes (BHs) in dwarf galaxies and also predicts that off-centre BHs are more common in higher mass dwarf galaxies since dynamical friction becomes significantly weaker and BHs take more time to sink back towards the centres of their host galaxies. One consequence of off-centre BHs during early epochs of dwarf galaxies is to quench any BH feedback.

Abstract Introduction Health-related absenteeism impacts individuals, companies, and society. Its consequences are reflected in the cost of benefits, substitutes, and reduced productivity. Research shows that musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are the most common work-related health problem reported by hospital staff. This study determines the groups at the Ljubljana University Medical Centre that are most susceptible to MSDs, especially low back pain. Methods Using data from the Health Data Centre of the Slovenian National Public Health Institute and the medical centre, this cross-sectional study analysed absenteeism among medical centre employees. The correlation between MSD / low-back pain risk factors and incidence was determined using logistic regression. An odds ratio was calculated to determine the probability of MSDs, most especially low back pain via sex, age, occupation, and education. Results Sick leave at the medical centre is higher than 5%, exceeding the Slovenian healthcare sector average. MSDs, as the main reason for absence, is significantly more frequent in women, non-medical staff, and employees with a maximum secondary school education. Among the MSDs, low back pain predominates as a reason for absence and is most frequent among nurses, midwives, and employees of 20 to 44.9 years old. Conclusion This study offers insight into the health status of medical centre employees. The high percentage of sick leave is mainly due to musculoskeletal disorders, including low back pain. This is an important basis for further monitoring and analysis of sick leave indicators and for planning systematic and continuous workplace health-promoting measures to manage ergonomic risk factors and reduce health-related absenteeism.

Abstract:
The City of Johannesburg is facing the simultaneous challenges of an increased generation of solid waste in the City, unemployment and the running out of land to dispose the waste. Of the solid waste that is generated, 50% is recyclable while only 10% is recycled (SOER, 2003: 69). Solid waste recycling is mainly performed through private sector initiatives in the City of Johannesburg. Consequently, there is no proper coordination with government initiatives. In order for South Africa to increase and sustain economic growth that would decrease unemployment, there should be a culture of entrepreneurship (Mass, G & Herrington M, 2006:7). Solid waste buy-back centres assist in addressing the challenges of dealing with the increased generation of solid waste and the scarcity of land for disposal. These centres also reduce the challenges of unemployment through promoting entrepreneurs to operate solid waste recycling businesses. Developed economies have managed to increase the rate of solid waste recycling to 60%. The problems associated with solid waste have been reduced by promoting recycling through a combination of legislation and setting-up of agencies to deal with solid waste recycling. South Africa has legislation and stated programmes to deal with solid waste recycling. Nevertheless, there has been complexity with implementing recycling. This is the result of a lack of co-ordination between the role-players involved in the value chain of solid waste recycling. In order for the City of Johannesburg to increase the recycling of solid waste from 10% to optimal rates of between 50% and 60%, there should be co-ordination of programmes amongst all the role players. In addition, there should also be skills provision to existing and potential entrepreneurs operating the solid waste buy-back centres. All spheres of government should promote solid waste recycling business to potential entrepreneurs and the public in order to recycle 40% of the recyclable solid waste that is not being recycled. The establishment of a solid waste buy-back centre in the City of Johannesburg is economically viable with some buy-back centre realising a net-profit of least R5 000 and some more than R30 000 per month. In order for the solid waste buy-back centre to realise a net-profit of more than R30 000 per month, there must be more than 40 tons of recyclable solid waste received by the buy-back centre per month. This study has indicated that solid waste buy-back centres rely on the economies of scale. This means that the more recyclable solid waste is received and sold by the solid waste buy-back centres, the more profitable it becomes.

Abstract:
Regeneration is a ubiquitous feature of the contemporary British state. Research, despite devoting much time to exploration of outcomes and effects, so far has neglected the mechanisms of the process itself. This thesis addresses this by charting developments in two marginal English coalfields over a period of 25 years. The coalfields provide a convenient site for the investigation of regeneration as they offer multiple critical sites and exhibit in particularly acute forms the effects of changing relationships between the central and the local state and thus exemplify the wider relationships between the state, the market and the locality. The choice of the coalfields in North West Leicestershire and East Kent as case studies was informed by their position in the coal mining industry at the beginning of the period of its major restructuring, the then recent evaluation on the recovery of the coalfields (Beatty et al., 2005) and their location in relation to national "identity" projects (e.g. the National Forest). The thesis employs the extended case method as outlined by Burawoy. On the basis of extensive archive research of local government documentation, semi-structured interviews with policy makers and civil society actors and a 6-month observation period in the Kent coalfield an understanding of regeneration as a multi-dimensional social process is delineated. Through the use of Bourdieu's notion of the field and different forms of capital (1984, 1986) the thesis offers an examination of regeneration as a sequence of contests in the economic, social and symbolic repositioning of localities in the social space. The combination of Bourdieu's and Burawoy's concepts allows exploring the systematicity of the regeneration process through the lens of place. It thus provides a framework for the analysis the spatially and temporally contingent outcomes of (1) processes of legitimisation, (2) the production of specific sets of social relations and (3) the operation of symbolic power in the context of different regeneration regimes.

Background: Protecting and promoting health in the workplace is imperative, both for individual employee health and workplace productivity. High rates of workplace injuries, particularly in environments where high levels of physical activity are required, point to the need for effective occupational interventions, minimization of workplace inhibitors that increase the risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), and occupational management checks to reduce the onset of MSDs in the workplace. However, for these measures to be successful, it would be important to identify individual and workplace-related factors associated with the development and duration of MSDs. Aim: To determine potential risk and protective factors associated with MSDs among employees in a workplace where heavy lifting is a key job function.

Abstract:
Dans le sillage de la décolonisation, les récits colonialistes ont systématiquement été réécrits à partir de perspectives autochtones. Ce phénomène est appelé « The Empire writes back to the centre » - une tendance qui s'affirme dans la critique postcoloniale à la fin du XXe siècle. L'objectif de ces actes de réécriture est de lire des textes colonialistes d'une manière barthesienne à l'envers, de déconstruire les dogmes orientalistes et colonialistes, et éventuellement créer un dialogue où il était seulement un monologue. Tourner le texte colonial dedans/dehors et le relire à travers la lentille d'un code ultérieur permet le texte postcolonial de déverrouiller son précurseur colonial et le changer de l'intérieur. Dans ce cadre critique, Heart of Darkness (1899) de Joseph Conrad a été un texte particulièrement influent pour Chinua Achebe et V. S. Naipaul. Leurs romans Things Fall Apart (1958) et A Bend in the River (1979) peuvent être considérés comme une réécriture du roman de Conrad. Cependant, avant d'examiner leurs différentes stratégies de réécriture, il serait utile de les localiser dans la tradition postcoloniale de la réécriture. Alors que Achebe se démarque clairement comme la figure de proue du mouvement, le romancier trinidadien est difficile à catégoriser. Est-ce que Naipaul réécrit, de façon à critiquer, ou d'une manière d'adopter et de justifier, l’idéologie impériale? Comme pas toute réécriture est une forme de « writing back » en termes de critique anticoloniale, la position de Naipaul continue d'être considérée comme l’énigmatique entre-deux d'un «insider» devenu «outsider». Prenant acte de ses différentes perceptions critiques peut devenir un moyen de mettre en évidence de manière efficace la lecture erronée d’Achebe et le détournement de Naipaul du modèle Conradien, un moyen de fixer un cadre pour la conversation simulée cette thèse vise à créer entre les trois romanciers
In the wake of decolonization, colonialist narratives have systematically been rewritten from indigenous perspectives. This phenomenon is referred to as “the Empire writes back to the centre” – a trend that asserted itself in late twentieth-century postcolonial criticism. The aim of such acts of writing back is to read colonialist texts in a Barthesian way inside-out or à l’envers, to deconstruct the Orientalist and colonialist dogmas, and eventually create a dialogue where there was only a monologue. Turning the colonial text inside-out and rereading it through the lens of a later code allows the postcolonial text to unlock the closures of its colonial precursor and change it from the inside. Under this critical scholarship, Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness (1899) has been a particularly influential text for Chinua Achebe and V. S. Naipaul. Their novels Things Fall Apart (1958) and A Bend in the River (1979) can be seen as a rewriting of Conrad’s novella. However, before examining their different rewriting strategies, it would be fruitful to locate them within the postcolonial tradition of rewriting. While Achebe clearly stands as the leading figure of the movement, the Trinidadian novelist is, in fact, difficult to pigeonhole. Does Naipaul write back to, that is criticize, or does he rewrite, and in a way adopt and justify, imperial ideology? Since not all rewriting involves writing back in terms of anti-colonial critique, Naipaul’s position continues to be explored as the enigmatic in-betweenness and double-edgedness of an “insider” turned “outsider.” Taking cognizance of these different critical perceptions can become a way to effectively highlight Achebe’s “(mis)-reading” and Naipaul’s “(mis)-appropriation” of Conrad, a way to set the framework for the simulated conversation this thesis seeks to create between the three novelists

Abstract:
Knowledge integration is rather a new and not fully explored  concept in  business management. However there are many scholars, who have  researched knowledge integration in recent decades. This thesis is conducted in order to draw attention towards knowledge integration and its processual phenomena. Moreover, some scholars have mentioned that knowledge integration is dynamic. The dynamics of knowledge integration lead to the fact that the actual knowledge integration process is also dynamic and constituted of performance practices, while being dependent on different factors and conditions. In further understanding, knowledge ingratiation process cannot be implemented in a straight forward lineal fashion. For this reason it changes during the time of the knowledge integration project implementation. The interest of this research is to find out how does the knowledge integration process change during the evolution ofproject. For this purpose, we have researched a real company’s project, the objective of which is to reach the knowledge integration amongst different back office teams in a newly established Shared Service Centre (SSC). The study led us through the discovery of different aspects of knowledge integration process, including challenges that occur during its implementation and mechanisms that are adopted as the project evolves. The analysis of existent theory and practical interpretation of the company’s project allowed us to conduct a visualization of the change of knowledge integration process. This visualization summarizes the occurrence of knowledge integration challenges, which call the company management to alternate different performance practices in combination with the use of practice-based coordination’s. In this essence it becomes visible, that as project evolves, the process of knowledge integration adopts a non-lineal progression. This in later perspective builds a reason to argue that the more knowledge is integrated more challenges occur in this integration process and as a result more mechanism are needed to be adopted to sustain successful knowledge integration in the project.

Abstract:
This article considers the impact of new technologies on the adolescent experience of live, literary theatre. Drawing together the work of theorists in literacies, new technologies and audience studies, together with brain research, and the results of a focus group of four secondary students who have seen four plays at Canada’s National Arts Centre, it examines the consequences of young people’s immersion in digital culture and the new mindset that often results. The expectation of instant access to data, inter-connectivity, stimulation and control can make it difficult for adolescents to decode the metaphorical aspects of a theatrical performance. The article concludes that language arts and dramatic arts educators have a key role in teaching students how to decode—and therefore enjoy and appreciate— a play.

An agent wants to form a connection with a predetermined set of target users over social media. Because forming a connection is known as "following" in social networks such as Twitter, we refer to this as the follow-back problem. The targets and their friends form a directed graph which we refer to as the "friends graph." The agent's goal is to get the targets to follow it, and it is allowed to interact with the targets and their friends. To understand what features impact the probability of an interaction resulting in a follow-back, we conduct an empirical analysis of several thousand interactions in Twitter. We build a model of the follow-back probabilities based upon this analysis which incorporates features such as the friend and follower count of the target and the neighborhood overlap of the target with the agent. We find optimal policies for simple network topologies such as directed acyclic graphs. For arbitrary directed graphs we develop integer programming heuristics that employ network centrality measures and a graph score we define as the follow-back score. We show that these heuristic policies perform well in simulation on a real Twitter network.

Abstract:
Noise induced hearing loss remains a concern within the employment sector, in spite of the preventability there of. In order to effectively prevent this debilitating disorder the risks need to be fully understood. One such area that requires investigation is the cash centres within the financial, banking industry. The aim of this research study was therefore to determine whether employees within the cash centres are exposed to noise levels that could be damaging to the auditory system and warrants the implementation of a hearing conservation programme. In order to investigate the noise levels emitted during cash management processes, the researcher obtained noise level recordings, with the use of the Cirrus CR110: A doseBadge Personal noise Dosimeter. Measurements were conducted to determine Lex8h dBA minimum and maximum as well as the peak SPL levels expressed in dBC. These measurements enabled the researcher to compare the noise levels to current legislation regarding noise exposure within the work place. The results revealed a mean Lex,8h of 75.87 dBA (SD=6.09) during the coin processing procedures, compared to 72.91 dBA (SD=8.79) during note processing. The maximum Lex,8h measured was 85.8 dBA. A mean peak sound pressure level of 133.4 dBC (SD = 9.81) was obtained during coin processing, compared to 129.3 dBC (SD = 8.27) during note processing. The maximum peak sound pressure level measured was 142.5 dBC. The data reveals that the noise levels in the bank cash centres do not exceed the SA legislative guidelines, but do still pose a risk for the development of NIHL as the noise levels exceed 75 dBA. As limited information is available regarding the noise exposure within the cash centres, this study highlights the need for further investigation, improved awareness regarding the noise exposure in the cash centres and the possible implementation of hearing conservation programmes within this industry.

Abstract:
Abstract 1 May 2017 hundreds of Muslim women wearing the veil took part in an International Workers’ Day demonstration in Gothenburg. The Swedish modernity project places a strong value on the idea of secularism. However, while secularism and Christianity become inseparable and part of the imagined Swedish community, Islam and Judaism are excluded from the Swedish and European centre. An EU verdict that sparked the idea of a 1 May demonstration is one example of this historical process. Muslim women wearing the veil are not counted in the modernist work of gender equality in Europe and Sweden. This example is especially serious, and violent, in Sweden, where gender equality is understood as a national quality. This version of modernity offers a bright future for the hegemonic centre and requires others to assimilate. The hundreds of Muslim women in the demonstration challenged the notions that modernity and Swedish gender equality must, by definition, be secular/Christian. The women—who addressed themselves as important historical political subjects—performed through the demonstration a decolonial alternative to the story of Swedish anti-religious modernity. The existence of more than one linear path to gender equality undermines the narrative of colonial modernity and Swedish white exceptionalism.

Abstract:
Short annular diffuser systems consisting of a conical expansion section with negative wall angles and a solid (full outer diameter) diffusing section were tested experimentally at several inlet swirl angles of 0–40°. Tests analyzed were completed over a range of inlet Reynolds number of Ret = 0.9–2.2 × 105 and considered fully turbulent. Performance — back pressure coefficient, outlet velocity uniformity, and total pressure loss — were appreciably depreciated for inlet swirl number larger than 0.7 and the average 10° curved vane swirler out-performed its straight vaned equivalent. Three centre bodies with length half that of the diffuser and different curvatures were manufactured. Similar performance was achieved but each centre body provided marginal improvements to a particular objective. Most notably, the centre body that gave an initial flow expansion angle of 14° resulted in 1–4% lower back pressure than the other two whose expansion angles were 12° and 16°.

Abstract:
The paper proposes a reading of the possible urban development of the historic centre of San Valentino in Abruzzo Citerore starting from the analysis of its architectural heritage. The image of a fortified hamlet surrounded by walls, represented in a painting dating back to the mid-nineteenth century, appears in cartographic reliefs and representations accessible at the local and extra regional archives. The reading of the current architectural set of givens, which are characterized by the continuous use of building techniques related to the processing of local limestones, seeks through comparison with the historic iconography to identify persistences and alterations of the urban fabric, tracing a possible developmental line of San Valentino in Abruzzo Citeriore from medieval castrum to Farnesiano fief up to the substantial interventions of modernization and revision of the historic center operated in the last century. The requests of functional and formal changes occurring at the turn of the nineteenth and twenteeth century implicates the dismantling of the walls, the typological change of the original building and of the urban layout and the loss of the urban imagine resulting consolidated in the collective memory. An awaking context of the main features of the historic and building development of this fortified reality in the Middle Adriatic area is today an indispensable step in this path of consciousness and awareness of the society regarding the urgent problem connected to the neglect and to the conservation of the historic centres.

Abstract:
<p>This pedestrian and cycle bridge spans the river in Eskilsuna connecting the historic, industrial area of Munktellstaden with the town centre, forming part of a rehabilitation of the area. The bridge was completed in 2016 on behalf of the City of Eskilstuna. The final design was chosen from three alternatives: the Landmark, the Industrial and the Transparent. All three options proposed were of steel, and all designs had to provide a 4.5m free deck width, maintain an unobstructed navigation channel of 5.0m wide by 3.35m high and a maximum slope of 5%. The Landmark proposal was an asymmetric cable stayed bridge with a 27m high, A- shaped, inclined steel pylon located on one bank with two planes of cables towards the steel deck and one plane of cables towards the back anchorage. The Industrial proposal was a variable height optimized truss , inclined outwards to provide a sensation of openness to the bridge user. The design finally chosen by the client was the Transparent. This bridge, unlike the other two, has two supports within the river that allows for a very slender deck. There is a central, low arch spanning 32m and an overall length of 65m. The arches are formed from two inclined box sections which are slightly curved on plan towards the supports. The railing is made up of a series of thin, steel plates connected via a stainless-steel handrail. The overall effect of transparency thus allows for a largely unobstructed view along the river. Due to the slender deck section a detailed dynamic analysis was carried out to check for possible pedestrian-induced vibrations.</p>

Abstract:
The objective of the current paper is to gain an understanding of the effects of inlet swirling flow on the flow field through short annular transition diffusers and nozzles. These devices are representative of the primary driving nozzles for certain exhaust ejector systems. It is known that strongly swirling flow can degrade ejector performance due to core separation. It is believed that minor changes in driving nozzle shape can improve ejector performance significantly. Two configurations of a diffuser/nozzle were tested experimentally and numerically under different swirl strengths. The two configurations were mounted on an annular flow wind tunnel. Two shapes of the annulus’ centre body end; square and elliptical, were used. Based on the hydraulic inlet diameter, average velocity and temperature in the annulus of the wind tunnel, the measurements were carried out at Mach range of 0.21 to 0.26 with Reynolds number of 2.3 to 2.7×105. Ansys14 was used for the CFD simulations. The measured velocity profiles in the annulus were used as input flow conditions in the CFD investigation. The RNG k-ε turbulence model was used in the CFD simulations. The measured velocity profiles at the device exit, and measured surface pressures on the annulus, duct and nozzle walls were compared with the CFD predictions. The measured back pressure coefficient and total pressure loss through the diffuser systems were compared with the CFD predictions. A reasonable agreement between the experimental data and numerical predictions was observed. It was found computationally that the size of the central recirculation zone behind the annulus centre body has negative effects on the diffuser performance under different swirl numbers. The square shape of the annulus’ centre body end increased the back pressure and total pressure loss coefficients over the elliptical shape. However, the flow uniformity at the duct and nozzle exits improved with the square shape over the elliptical end. These differences may have a significant effect on ejector pumping.
