Abstract:
A general strike spearheaded by those controlling the railroads forced tsarist autocracy to its knees in 1905. This tactic, unprecedented in Russian history, was born in Saratov early that year. Saratov's pioneering role derived from an operative principle of solidarity across class, caste, professional, and political lines. However much the crowds filling Saratov's streets resembled those elsewhere, protesters in the middle Volga city came away from the strike after Bloody Sunday with something unique—they had wrung major concessions from local administrators. The economic victory belonged to the men and women of the Riazan'-Urals Railroad who, significantly, had acted together. Their mutually reinforcing interactions, their wedding of economic and political demands framed an effective mechanism for conducting a general strike.

Abstract:
Objectives: Workers’ strike is a global phenomenon since antiquity. In Nigeria, health-care sector has been rocked by series of strikes spanning variable periods with immeasurable losses. Ethical consideration and inter-professional rivalry are the main concern attracting much debate in the health sector. The objectives of the study were to determine the trend of health worker’s strike actions, the main agitators, and to make some recommendations. Material and Methods: This was a retrospective study of the labor ward records of the Jos University Teaching Hospital from January 1, 1985, to December 31, 2019, duration of 35 years. The data were collated and analyzed using simple percentages and the figures corrected to the nearest decimal point. Results: A total of 42 strike actions, about 2 strikes/year. The trend shows a multi-modal pattern, with the highest peak of 5 strikes in 2004 and 2013. There were cumulatively 58.5 months of strikes out of the 442 months of the period of study, giving a percentage of 13.2%. While doctors had more frequent strikes (52.3%), non-doctors under the umbrella of Joint Health Sector Union and nurse/midwives accounted for over half (58.1%) of the duration of the strikes. The resident doctors are the main agitators of doctors’ strike accounting for about half (45.2%) of the total health workers’ strikes, while NMA accounted for only 3 (9.4.%). Most strike actions occur at the end of the year, with spill into the first quarter of the following year. Conclusion: Health workers’ strike remains a perennial problem. Inter-professional rivalry is a major challenge in the health sector with far reaching implication without immediate government intervention. Addressing challenges in the residency training program will go a long way in reducing doctors’ unrest in the health sector.

ObjectivesTo examine the impacts of the four episodes of industrial action by English junior doctors in early 2016.DesignDescriptive retrospective study of admitted patient care, accident and emergency (A&E) and outpatient activity in English hospitals.SettingAll hospitals across England.ParticipantsAll patients who attended A&E or outpatient appointments or those who were admitted to hospital during the 3-week period surrounding each of the four strikes (12 January, 10 February, 9–10 March and 26–27 April, excluding weekends).Main outcome measuresRaw numbers and percentage changes of outpatient appointments and cancellations, A&E visits, admitted patients and all inhospital mortality on strike days compared with patient activity on the same weekday in the weeks before and after the strikes.ResultsThere were 3.4 million admissions, 27 million outpatient appointments and 3.4 million A&E attendances over the four 3-week periods analysed. Across the four strikes, there were 31 651 fewer admissions (−9.1%), 23 895 fewer A&E attendances (−6.8%) and 173 462 fewer outpatient appointments (−6.0%) than expected. Additionally, 101 109 more outpatient appointments were cancelled by hospitals than expected (+52%). The 26–27 April strike, where emergency services were also affected, showed the largest impacts on regular service. Mortality did not measurably increase on strike days. Regional analysis showed that services in the Yorkshire and the Humber region were disproportionately more affected by the industrial action.ConclusionsIndustrial action by junior doctors during early 2016 caused a significant impact on the provision of healthcare provided by English hospitals. We also observed regional variations in how these strikes affected providers.

Abstract:
Abstract The series of earthquakes that occurred in Meade County, Kentucky, in January and March of 1990, are the first events in an otherwise aseismic area. First motions recorded for the three largest events in January suggest a predominantly strike-slip mechanism with a pressure axis of trend = 275° and plunge = 14° , and a tension axis of trend = 178° and plunge = 31°. A comparison between the mechanisms for the Meade county events and those shown in Taylor et al. (1989) for the southeastern Illinois area, indicates a continuity in the regional deviatoric stress from southeastern Illinois into north-central Kentucky. This finding conflicts with that previously suggested by Ault et al. (1985) who proposed that the two areas were in regions of differing stress regimes.

Abstract:
On 31 January 1919 a demonstration in Glasgow in support of an unofficial strike for a 40-hour working week descended into violence, the ‘Battle of George Square’, probably set off by an ill-judged police baton charge. Troops called by the Sheriff of Lanarkshire began to arrive late that evening, and six tanks arrived on the following Monday. The ‘Battle’ and the subsequent military deployment have entered the mythology of Scottish socialism and, more recently, of Scottish nationalism. The strike had an overtly political aim: to force the Government to step in to regulate industry. Many in government believed that it had a more profoundly political, or even revolutionary aim. No detailed account of the troop deployment has yet been written, and in this gap mythology has flourished. This paper is intended to fill that gap and to challenge the myths.

Abstract:
In the spring of 1878 male political prisoners in the Peter and Paul Fortress of St. Petersburg went on hunger strike to protest against the oppressive conditions in which they were held by the tsarist regime. After three days, news of the strike reached the prisoners' families, who appealed for relief to the director of military police, General N. V. Mezentsev. The director dismissed their pleas and reportedly declared of the hunger strikers, “Let them die; I have already ordered coffins for them all.” It was a volatile period of repression and reprisal in the Russian revolutionary movement. The tsarist regime had cracked down on the revolutionary populists, thenarodniki, and the era of terrorism had just begun in St. Petersburg that January, when Vera Zasulich shot and seriously wounded the city's governor. The hunger strikers were among a group of 193 revolutionaries who had been recently tried for treason and sentenced to various forms of punishment, including hard labor and imprisonment in Siberia. In these circumstances the news of Mezentsev's response spread quickly beyond the strikers' families, soon reaching a would-be terrorist and former artillery officer, Sergius Kravchinskii. Kravchinskii killed Mezentsev with a dagger on a city street, then fled Russia and made his way to Great Britain, a haven for Russian revolutionaries since Alexander Herzen had arrived in 1852 and established the first Russian revolutionary press abroad. Kravchinskii likewise wrote against the tsarist regime, under the pen name Sergius Stepniak, and in 1890 he became the editor of a new, London-based periodical,Free Russia. Its first number chronicled a dramatic series of hunger strikes led by female revolutionaries imprisoned at Kara in the Trans-Baikál of eastern Siberia. These strikes had culminated in the death of one woman after she was flogged and in five suicides by female and male political prisoners who, after the death of their comrade, had ended their hunger strikes to eat poison. Having been inspired to terror by his sympathy for revolutionary hunger strikers, Stepniak, like other Russian exiles, believed that the hunger strike would win sympathy and support for Russian revolutionaries in Britain.

Abstract:
The Mw7.9 Alaska earthquake at 09:31:40 UTC on 23 January 2018 occurred as the result of strike slip faulting within the shallow lithosphere of the Pacific plate. Global positioning system (GPS) data were used to calculate the slant total electron contents above the epicenter. The singular spectrum analysis (SSA) method was used to extract detailed ionospheric disturbance information, and to monitor the co-seismic ionospheric disturbances (CIDs) of the Alaska earthquake. The results show that the near-field CIDs were detected 8–12 min after the main shock, and the typical compression-rarefaction wave (N-shaped wave) appeared. The ionospheric disturbances propagate to the southwest at a horizontal velocity of 2.61 km/s within 500 km from the epicenter. The maximum amplitude of CIDs appears about 0.16 TECU (1TECU = 1016 el m−2) near the epicenter, and gradually decreases with the location of sub-ionospheric points (SIPs) far away from the epicenter. The attenuation rate of amplitude slows down as the distance between the SIPs and the epicenter increases. The direction of the CIDs caused by strike-slip faults may be affected by the horizontal direction of fault slip. The propagation characteristics of the ionospheric disturbance in the Alaska earthquake may be related to the complex conditions of focal mechanisms and fault location.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter will focus on the politico-cultural legacies of the Sunningdale Agreement, a period defined by a strange blend of strife and cooperation. It will frame the experiment as a culmination of a certain kind of O’Neillite Unionism, wrenched down by the May 1974 Ulster Workers’ Council strike. The chapter will take into account some of the early promising workings of the Assembly, such as the higher-education motion introduced in January 1974 by one of the last bastions of the Labour tradition within Northern Irish constitutional politics, David Bleakley. This will lead on to the second focus of the chapter, the political emergence of Loyalist groups and the rather more ominous (and certainly more enduring) developments arising from the illegal activities of the same groups, as the Protestant working class continued its fragmentation along class lines, between the forces of law and criminality, and even in language with the appellation ‘Loyalist’ now termed to differentiate Unionist politicians from the paramilitaries. The ambiguous cultural effect on Irish Republicanism will also be considered, exemplified by the Pearse-esque admiration for the strikers rising up against Unionist elites expressed by the Provisional IRA’s Dáithí Ó Conaill. The chapter will fuse high political material with newspapers and memoir, bringing in cultural depictions of the period – such as Stewart Parker’s play Pentecost (1987) – which provide an alternative flavour of life at the time, simultaneously highlighting how the reactions to Sunningdale were rather more complex than has hitherto been presented.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter looks at the rise of the black campus movement. University of Michigan (UM) leaders were not ready for black campus activism; they took comfort in the fact that black activism was still something unfolding off campus. That all changed in the late 1960s. Black activism that took over buildings and shut down classes threatened university operations. The black campus activists also offered more radical visions of inclusion than federal bureaucrats had. They wanted to create an institution that saw racial justice as the driving force of its mission. A new president led the University of Michigan through these protests. Arriving at the university in January of 1968, Robben Fleming introduced a new managerial strategy to co-opt activism. His efforts worked briefly to stem the tide of black student protests in the late 1960s, but they ultimately failed when Fleming did not provide the types of policies and initiatives that would satisfy activists. By 1970, black student activists organized the most successful student strike in the university's history, calling into question whether UM leaders could retain control of the meaning and character of racial inclusion.

Abstract:
When Spain declared war to Britain on June 21, 1779, the Spanish empire had been already supporting the American patriots for several years. Money and supplies were channelled both through Gardoqui & Sons, a Spanish firm with long standing commercial ties with Boston, and New Orleans from where they went up the Mississippi and then by land to George Washington’s Continental Army in the East. In order to prevent a British attack against Spanish Louisiana, Bernardo de Gálvez launched a pre-emptive strike against the ill-prepared and little defended British outposts of Fort Manchac (September 7, 1779) and Baton Rouge (September 21, 1779) that quickly surrendered. The next objective, Mobile, had stronger defenses so reinforcements were needed from Cuba. The high command on the island, however doubted both the operation, and the commander. More so, on January 1780, the Spanish forces that sailed from New Orleans were mostly wrecked by a storm. Despite this setback, Gálvez continued his march towards Mobile and after the arrival of the long-awaited reinforcements and supplies from Havana he was able to start the siege by late February 1780. On March 13, the Spanish artillery was able to breach Fort Charlotte’s walls and the British garrison surrendered.

Israel security remained a pawn of the superpowers’ rivalry even after its military victory in the campaign. However, if it had not won either political or a diplomatic victory. The Eisenhower administration was haunted by the nightmare of losing the middle East to the Soviets which would deny the west vital Arab oil. Consequently, the US pressed Israel to withdraw from Sinai, to the extent of threatening economic sanctions. The Soviet Union could punish Israel by trying to expel it from the UN. Israel’s government, particularly Ben-Gurion, said that the withdrawal from the Sinai peninsula, the straits of Tiran and the Gaza strips should be conditioned on a strong security arrangement. Israel had no choice but to succumb to the pressures of the superpowers.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the Baltic Sea coast measurements taken during the period between 2008 and 2015. The formation of the strip of the Northern breakwater - Giruliai during this period was influenced by the Hurricane Felix on January 10 of 2015. Describing the Baltic Sea coast strip dynamics trends, the Baltic Sea coastline change during the period between 2008 and 2015 was selected and calculated on the basis of the measurements results. Analysis of the erosive and accumulation processes of strip from the northern breakwater to Giruliai strip was provided. The carried out data of the Baltic Sea coast changes analysis show that seacoast limits are constantly changing. Reasons for the changes: swell, prevailing winds, extreme climatic events, underwater currents movement. The replenishment of the Baltic seacoast spatial data set during the period between 2008 and 2013 with the revised spatial data of the period between 2014 and 2015 showed that during the months of January during the period between 2008 and 2015 the 4 km long strip of the Baltic Sea coast (from the Northern breakwater to Giruliai) decreased by 3.7075 ha, in the Ist Melnrage area, the 0.7 km long strip of coastline has moved more than 30 m inland. It was found that in the southern half of the researched section erosional processes prevailed, while in the northern part – both erosional and accumulative ones.

Abstract:
As of January 1, 2008 idling of the main vehicle engine for the purpose of powering sleeper cabin amenities by any truck over 10,000 lbs (4,500 kg) within the borders of the state of California is prohibited unless strict emissions standards are met. Following California’s lead, a number of other states have also passed legislation restricting idling time and emissions. In anticipation of tighter idling legislation and rising fuel prices, idle-reduction technologies are garnering an increasing market share. These include auxiliary battery-electric power systems, primary vehicle battery systems, truck-stop electrification, diesel-fueled auxiliary power systems, and fuel-fired heaters. In this paper the current state of anti-idling technology is reviewed. Off the shelf systems are compared in an attempt to discern which is more advantageous in terms of factors such as lifetime cost, lifetime cost per hour, and payback period.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Company X is a company engaged in drilling mud, due to the high intensity of work and an unhealthy lifestyle, occupational health and safety (OHS) becomes a problem. In 2018, employees were facing cholesterol, triglycerides, hypertension, obesity and hyperuricemia problems and in addition, there were three employees experiencing heart attacks, one stroke, two employees experiencing kidney dysfunction, and one employee experiencing gallstones. Meanwhile, the OHS program in the company has not been implemented optimally. There was a decline in the trend of sports programs participation from January 2018 (75%) to January 2019 (25%). It is necessary to improve and develop OHS based on the RAPCRIEC method (Recognition, Analysis, Planning, Communication, Preparation, Implementation, Evaluation, and Continuity) to reduce the percentage of employees who experience cholesterol, triglycerides, hypertension, and obesity. Subjects and Methods: This was a quantitative design carried out at PT X conducted in June-December 2019. The study subjects were all 69 employees of PT X. The independent variable of the study was the health program. The dependent variables of the study were cholesterol levels, triglycerides, hypertension, obesity and employee hyperuricemia. Data on cholesterol, triglycerides, hypertension, obesity and hyperuricemia were obtained from medical check-ups. Data were analyzed using the percentage reduction in the number of employees who experience cholesterol, triglycerides, hypertension, obesity and hyperuricemia. Results: In the results of the medical check-up in 2018, it was found that the most health problems were cholesterol (37%), triglycerides (22%), hypertension (11.5%), obesity (7.5%), and hyperuricemia (7.2%). After the using of RAPCRIEC method, in December 2019 a medical check-up was conducted and showed the decrease health problems percentage among workers. They were experienced cholesterol (21.7%), triglycerides (11.6%), hypertension (7.2%), obesity (5.7%) and hyperuricemia (2.8%). Conclusion: The development of a health program using the RAPCRIEC method at company X has reduced the percentage of employees who experience cholesterol, triglycerides, hypertension, and obesity.

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of this paper is to discuss and outline how downhole pressure data conveyed through the wired drill pipe (WDP) telemetry system was used by the Snorre Expansion Project (SEP) team to drill pressure restrictive reservoirs safely and efficiently. An original equipment manufacturers (OEM) WDP system was deployed on a ram rig for SEP late summer 2019 for the 24 well campaign. Drilling at six separate templates scattered between Snorre A and B, formation, well path and pressure regimes, differ significantly throughout the project. SEP divided its year into two phases: drilling during the Autumn and Winter seasons, and completion during Spring and Summer. To monitor and act on the changes in pressure, real-time along the string sensors were utilized through the WDP system. In conjunction with the newly developed prototype data while tripping (DWT) tool, constant 0.5 Hz pressure data was transferred real-time from downhole to the decision makers on the rig and onshore, both while drilling and tripping. Allowing for continuous surveillance of the downhole condition proved crucial during the first reservoir section of the project that was drilled during a heavy Winter storm in January 2020. As well as gauging the effectiveness of the hole cleaning, the downhole impact of rig heave was also measured by the pressure sensors. The sensors showed that 1.5 to 2.0 m rig heave would result in up to ±20 bar fluctuation of the lowermost sensor, risking downhole pressure to go below the pore pressure of the formation. Acting on the real-time information, the rig halted drilling and pulled the string to the shoe, waiting out the weather. Swab pressures were measured while tripping and used to adjust the string speed, avoiding proximity to the pore pressure. The drilling program was subsequently changed, postponing most challenging reservoir sections to the spring, thereby avoiding a similar situation or worse.

Abstract:
Foreign object strikes are one of the major aviation incidents that cause tremendous risk to both the aircraft and passengers, the adverse implications of which can ripple through the aviation industry. The demand for air transportation has been on the rise, leading to foreign object ingestion into the engines becoming one of the most threatening scenarios. In January 2009, Flight 1549 took off from LaGuardia Airport in New York City and struck a flock of Canadian Geese during takeoff. Both engines ingested birds, resulting in mid-air catastrophic engine failure. Fortunately, none of the damaged engine components penetrated into the cabin and the aircraft successfully completed an emergency landing on the Hudson River without incurring any casualties. In this work, explicit finite element strategies have been adopted to model the Fluid-Solid Interactions (FSI) present in a bird ingestion scenario. Taking into account the fluidic composition of bird bodies, a proper methodology to model the Fluid-Solid Interaction was implemented. The investigations were aimed to understand the significance of impact force histograms in an accurately represented model, analyze shockwave propagations and reflections during the impact window, and perform parametric studies to highlight a superior representation for the Fluid-Solid Interaction (FSI). The paper presents a modern explicit finite element methodology adopted to accurately model bird ingestion into a complex turbomachinery forward section and analyze subsequent failure sequencing of the relevant structural components within the system.

Abstract:
Increased shipboard electricity demand, for propulsion, navigational electronics, reduced crew size, and other purposes, has created a need for marinized gas turbine generator sets. The LM500 is a versatile 4 MW class aeroderivative gas turbine with a solid track record. The LM500 gas turbine is now equipped with a dual-redundant 21st century digital control system, which also manages the gas turbine generator set. In addition, to improve combustor life at a rated power, the marinized LM500 was modified for the engineering development model (EDM), and the turbine hot section components proven in the CF34-3B — the life improved model of its aero engine counterpart, may be offered for production. The gas turbine has been fully integrated on a common base with a 4 MW generator and all auxiliary equipment. An epicyclic gearbox was used to reduce power turbine output speed from 7000 RPM to the 1800 RPM required at the four-pole generator. The auxiliary equipment layout was designed to minimize weight and allow for ease of maintenance. Gas turbine engine testing was completed in August 2004. Operational string testing of the integrated gas turbine generator set was completed in January 2005, with full power plant testing scheduled for 2005 at the Land Based Test Site, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, by the customer. This paper describes and discusses the gas turbine generator set (genset) design, development, and production plans, as well as the benefits of the packaged power plant and potential applications.

Abstract:
This paper describes the results of the train-to-train impact test conducted at the Transportation Technology Center in Pueblo, Colorado on January 31, 2002. In this test, a cab car-led train, initially moving at 30 mph, collided with a standing locomotive-led train. The initially moving train included a cab car, three coach cars, and a trailing locomotive, while the initially standing train included a locomotive and two open-top hopper cars. The hopper cars were ballasted with earth such that the two trains weighed the same, approximately 635 kips each. The cars were instrumented with strain gauges, accelerometers, and string potentiometers, to measure the deformation of critical structural elements, the longitudinal, vertical, and lateral car body accelerations, and the displacements of the truck suspensions. The test included test dummies in the operator’s seat of the impacted locomotive, in forward-facing conventional commuter passenger seats in the cab car and first coach car, and in intercity passenger seats modified with lap and shoulder belts in the first coach car. During the train-to-train test, the cab car overrode the locomotive; the underframe of the cab car sustained approximately 22 feet of crush and the first three coupled connections sawtooth buckled. The short hood of the locomotive remained essentially intact, while there was approximately 12 inches of crush of the windshield center post. There was nearly no damage to the other equipment used in the test. The measured response of the trains compare closely with predictions made with simulation models.

Abstract:
Purpose: To explore the reasons of hysterectomy and indications of post-hysterectomy radiotherapy in carcinoma cervix cases. Methods: From January 2013 to May 2015, medical records of 64 cases of carcinoma cervix (post-hysterectomy) who were referred for radiotherapy to our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Medical records of 64 cases were reviewed. The median age was 47 years. In 45% of females hysterectomy was done in towns, but in majority of cases (55%) hysterectomy was done in different cities of Rajasthan. Simple hysterectomy was done in 31 of (48%) cases. Wertheim’s hysterectomy was done in remaining 33 cases (52%). 15 cases (23%) were treated by IMRT technique, while remaining 87% cases were treated by 3DCRT technique to dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions followed by CVS brachytherapy. All cases also received concurrent chemotherapy. Reason for hysterectomy was analyzed. In 32 (50%) cases, biopsy from gross lesion at cervix or PAP smear test was not done before surgery. In 32 cases (50%) understaging of the tumor or inadequate staging before hysterectomy was performed. Histopathology report analysis revealed that in 9 cases (14%) primary tumor size was less than 4 cm, in 27 cases (64%) there was no comment on pT size, in 22% cases primary tumor was larger than 4 cm. Surprisingly in one case the pT size was 7 cm. LVSI was not seen in 18 cases (28%), positive in 20 case (31%) and with no comment in 26 cases. More than 50% of stroma thickness was involved in 54 cases (84%), and in remaining 10 cases there was no comment on stroma invasion. In 33 cases (52%) pelvic lymphadenectomy was done, in 48% cases lymph nodes were not addressed in surgery. In 36 cases (56%) pelvic lymph node metastasis was seen either in preoperative imaging (USG/CT scan) or in histopathology. Median follow-up duration was 6 months. Locoregional failure was seen in 10 cases (16%), 6 cases (9%) also developed distant metastasis. Conclusion: Failure to perform biopsy from gross lesion at or under staging/inadequate staging before surgery was the main reasons for inappropriate hysterectomy for carcinoma cervix. Inappropriate hysterectomy followed by chemo-radiotherapy resulted in poor tumor control rate as in our study, 1 out of every 4 patients failed loco-regionally with median follow up of 6 months. Strict adherence to guidelines for cervical cancer diagnosis and treatment is advised to prevent inappropriate hysterectomy.
