Full textAbstract:
Some issues concerning the problems of legislative regulation of recidivism in Russian criminal law are considered. The author comes to the conclusion that the construction of the article of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is not perfect and requires some additions. The need to legislatively fix the provision that conditional conviction and delay should be taken into account in the recognition of a relapse if they were abolished, but the person shied away from serving a prison sentence. In addition, the article addresses the issue of preventing recidivism and conviction as an indispensable feature of professional crime. In addition, measures to prevent recidivism are proposed, as well as suggestions for improving existing criminal legislation.

Sexual encroachments on sexual inviolability and sexual freedom of the persons who have not reached their majority age are one of the most topical and acute problems of the Russian society as for as the deformation of physical and mental development of the minors and juveniles threatens to the nation’s health. For the last few years it is observed a considerable growth of crimes concerning the minors made on sexual ground. The considerable share of crimes against the sexual inviolability and sexual freedom of the minors is characterized by the criminological relapse emphasizing the imperfection of the criminal legal legislation, and also an inefficiency of the preventive measures from law enforcement bodies. The questions of crimes prevention in any democratic state are one of priority nation-wide directions, that represents multi-level and aspect activity of the various state structures and civil institutions, directed on hindrance of committing crimes. In the article the authors offer some measures on enhancement of specially-criminological prevention of the sexual crimes made against the minors. The special attention is given to revealing of the facts of sexual violence over the minors by means of psycho diagnostics, to the officers’ training to methods of work with the minors taking into account the social-demographic features of children paying attention to age groups and difference of posttraumatic experiences from age features. The authors also pay a special attention that the results in decreasing the level of sexual criminality can be reached only after the considerable period of time at the regular and complex approach in the decision of problems not only the sexual violence, but also the violence as that.

Imagine that you are a teenager and have cancer. You undergo a year of chemotherapy and after a brief return to normal life, you have a relapse. Your physician says that chemotherapy and radiation therapy could be tried, but a bone marrow transplant (BMT) is your only chance of a real cure. He tells you and your parents that you could die as a result of complications from the transplant, but without it you would only be expected to live one year. You and your family discuss the alternatives and decide to have the transplant. You ask what will happen if the BMT fails, but both your physician and your family tell you that right now you must fight to get better and not think negative thoughts. You do not ask any more questions.

In view of the permanent reforms of criminal law norms protecting sexual inviolability that are aimed at the penalization and differentiation of criminal liability for sexual assaults against minors, the authors conduct a comprehensive analysis of amendments to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by laws of January 28, 2022 № 3-FZ and of March 6, 2022 № 38-FZ. They note a new round of strengthening penal prosecution for pedophilic assaults and point out technical and legal drawbacks in the new norms, expressing doubts regarding their criminological validity. By widening the special qualifying features of such crimes as rape and sexual assault, the legislators set stricter punishments for assaults against sexual inviolability than for aggravated types of homicide. The authors analyze the contents of Part 5, Art. 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in its new edition and point out difficulties that could arise during the qualification of sexual assaults committed against two or more minors or associated with committing another grave or very grave crime against a person, as well as in cases of special relapse. They present a critical assessment of Part 3, Art. 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and raise the questions of the validity of strengthening criminal liability for group coercion to sexual actions only against minors (clause «a»), and the feasibility of including «the use of mass media» in the characteristics that increase the public danger of harassment. It is noted that the criminalization of the concealment of grave crimes against minors makes the law enforcers face the problem of the admissibility of incriminating a set of crimes included in Parts 1 and 2, Art. 316 of the Criminal Code in cases when the concealed crimes against minors belong to different categories but have a common intent.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the experience of the Kalininsky District Court of Chelyabinsk on the prevention of juvenile delinquency. It is noted that for effective prevention of relapse among juvenile offenders it is not enough only to confess guilt, to apologize to the victim, to compensate for the damage caused. Prevention of juvenile delinquency should be a complex system of interacting services and departments, as well as forms and methods of work aimed at: identifying and neutralizing adverse social conditions that adversely affect the adolescent's psyche; identification of adolescents falling into "risk groups", carrying out preventive and corrective work with them. A complex of preventive measures implemented in the practice of the court is of a combined nature. Restorative procedures are applied in the form of mediation, which is aimed at restoring the situation, admission of guilt by the person guilty of forming a readiness to make amends for the harm done and "cure" the victim. For the psychological rehabilitation of the offender, we use a rehabilitation approach. More than 90% of the examined minors whose criminal records were referred to the court had a mental trauma caused by the loss of one of the parents (divorce or death of one of them). Procedures for rehabilitation are in the work with child psychic trauma, which, violating the integrity of the "personality-subject" system, is a predictor of criminal behavior. As a result, for the period from 2015 to 2017. among minors who have gone through the mediation and therapy of child psychiatric trauma, to date, there has not been a single case of relapse.

Full textAbstract:
IntroductionInvoluntary treatments in forensic psychiatry represents a complex intersection of mental health, legal systems and ethics. Judicial authorities may compulsorily refer children to inpatient clinics for receiving necessarily treatment. Despite its importance, there is limited research on the reasons behind and effectiveness of such interventions in minors.ObjectivesThe objectives of this study were to describe the clinical characteristics of minors who have risks of harming themselves and/or others so receiving involuntary treatment due to a court order. It is aimed to assess the effectiveness of involuntary treatment.MethodsA follow-up case series was conducted on 9 minors who hospitalized by court orders in a secure inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry clinic, in the year of 2023. Data collected from medical records, including demographic information, clinical presentation, diagnosis and discharge treatment. After one, three and six month of the discharge, interviews made with the patients and their families. Current data collected on treatment regimen, compliance, behavioral outcomes and reoffending rates. All data were anonymized to maintain patient confidentiality.ResultsThe case series consisted of 3 males and 6 females, with a mean age of 16.5 years at the time of admission. The most common reason to hospitalization was homicide risk 88%, followed by substance use 66%. Conduct Disorder was the most common diagnosis with the rate of 88%, followed by Substance Use Disorder(66%) and Attention Deficit and Hiperactivity Disorder(50%). 44% of minors had a history of juvenile delinquency. School dropout rates were 100%. Treatment consisted of a combination of individual and group therapy and medication. Treatment refusal rates were 88% so in terms of treatment, 88% of the minors in this sample treated with depot form antipsychotic medications, with the most common medication being risperidone. Overall all of the sample showed a significant reduction in disruptive behaviors during their hospital stay. Follow-up data collecting is still continue and preliminary statistics show us that relapse rates are low and treatment compliance is relatively high of the sample.ConclusionsThe findings suggest that involuntary hospitalization can be effective in reducing disruptive behaviors and increasing treatment compliance in minors with conduct disorders, substance abuse disorders and a history of juvenile delinquency. These results underscore the need for comprehensive, multidisciplinary approaches that integrate psychiatric treatment, psychoeducation and social support. Given the relatively small sample size and short-term follow-up, further research is needed to determine the long-term effects of involuntary treatment and to identify factors that predict treatment response.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared

Objective We reviewed relevant research on rituximab (RTX) treatment for pediatric immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) to elucidate the efficacy and safety of RTX. Methods Prospective clinical trials of RTX for the treatment of pediatric ITP were collected by searching the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and OVID: EMBASE databases and ClinicalTrials.gov. We examined rates of overall response (OR), complete response (CR), partial response (PR), sustained response (SR), relapse (R), and adverse drug reaction (ADR). The Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies scale was used, and sensitivity analyses were performed. Results For five studies, including 100 patients, the pooled OR, CR, PR, SR, R, and ADR rates were 52% (95% CI: 0.36–0.77, I2 = 78%), 52% (95% CI: 0.41–0.67, I2 = 45%), 18% (95% CI: 0.10–0.33, I2 = 33%), 43% (95% CI: 0.29–0.63, I2 = 0%), 25% (95% CI: 0.06–0.96, I2 = 52%), and 30% (95% CI: 0.15–0.58, I2 = 64%), respectively. Conclusion There is evidence, albeit low quality, that RTX may be a better second-line therapy than splenectomy for children with ITP; however, its efficacy and safety need to be validated by further high-quality clinical trials, such as randomized controlled trials.

Full textAbstract:
The paper contains a comprehensive analysis of the amendments made to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by Federal Laws No. 3-FZ dated January 28, 2022 and No. 38-FZ dated March 06, 2022. Noting the next round of strengthening criminal repression for pedophile assaults, the author draws attention to the legislative bias in assessing the public danger of acts, since rape or violent sexual acts committed against two or more minors are punished more severely than the murder of these victims. Having identified technical and legal flaws in the content of Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the author identifies issues that may arise when qualifying violent sexual crimes committed against two or more minors; involving the commission of another grave or especially grave crime against the person; with a special relapse. Critically assessing the content of Part 3 of Article 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the author raises the question of the validity of strengthening criminal liability for group coercion to sexual acts only against minors (paragraph «a«); attribution of «use of mass media» to the number of signs that increase the public danger of harassment. The author pays special attention to one of the obvious defects of the norms of Chapter 18 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which violate the principles of equality and justice, namely, the normative separation according to the degree of public danger of sexual intercourse and sodomy or lesbianism with a person under the age of 16, which does not correspond to the principle of gender equality. The conducted legal analysis testifies not to the consistent normative implementation of the strategic course, but to the spontaneity of decisions aimed at solving particular problems.

Subject of research: the particularly qualifying signs of violent sexual crimes included in Articles 131, 132 and 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in 2022, which are aimed at protecting the sexual integrity of minors.
 Purpose of research: to analyze the content of new particularly qualifying signs of sexual crimes, their consistency with each other, validity and necessity of inclusion in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
 Methods and objects of research: the work uses the general scientific dialectical method of cognition and private scientific methods, such as analysis, linguistic, comparative legal, statistical, formal and logical. The method of analysis was used in the study of the content of particularly qualifying signs of sexual crimes. Linguistic when interpreting the wording of the norm provided for in Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Comparative legal when comparing the content of the sign of a special relapse contained in Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and in Articles 134 and 135 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Statistical when processing indicators about the number of convicts for forcing minors to sexual acts. Formal-logical in the disclosure of concepts and categories used in the formulations of the investigated signs of crimes and the presentation of proposals to change the design of Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
 Main results of research: based on the analysis of the content of the signs regulated in Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 and Part 3 of Article 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the author identified technical and substantive flaws in their designs, inconsistency of some of the new signs with similar signs of other sexual crimes against minors. To eliminate the identified shortcomings of the studied norms, it is necessary to replace the wording of Part 5 of Articles 131 and 132 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation with an indication in it of an act committed against a minor, without references to other parts of these articles, from paragraph "b" " the same part of these articles should exclude an indication of a minor victim, from paragraph "c" remove the indication of the type of crimes against the person. In Part 3 of Article 133 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to exclude the signs provided for in paragraphs "a" and "b", and in Part 6 of Article 134 and Part 5 of Article 135 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, increased responsibility for the special recidivism of crimes established in them should be extended to all victims of these crimes.

Full textAbstract:
The consumption of psychoactive substances in children and adolescents has increased in recent years, with a worrying age of onset between 11 and 14 years in Peru. Therapeutic communities have played a fundamental role in the intervention of these cases, providing treatment and social support to minors in vulnerable situations. In this context, the development of social skills has been identified as a crucial factor for rehabilitation and relapse prevention. Social skills, such as communication, empathy and conflict resolution, play a key role in the processes of change related to substance use. Previous research has shown that strengthening these skills significantly reduces the risk of consumption and facilitates social integration. The present research, based on data from 113 children and adolescents in treatment in a therapeutic community in Lima, analyzes the relationship between social skills and the phases of change according to the Prochaska and DiClemente model. The results showed a significant association between social skills and the process of change (p < 0.05). It was identified that 62% of the participants were in the precontemplation phase, presenting high levels of social anxiety and withdrawal. In adolescents, the correlation between social skills and change was more marked (χ² = 4.87, p < 0.01) than in children, suggesting that psychosocial maturation plays a key role in the transition to abstinence. These findings reinforce the need for interventions aimed at strengthening social skills as a strategy for rehabilitation and prevention of drug use in minors.

Full textAbstract:
Magíster en Gestión y Dirección de Empresas<br>Este trabajo consiste en el estudio de los efectos en el negocio debido a la implementación de un modelo conceptual de negocio minero, que considera de manera integrada las variables claves relacionadas con: i) la ley de cobre, ii) el porcentaje posible de recuperación del mineral mena en planta concentradora, y iii) el porcentaje de recuperación de agua desde los relaves al ser sometidos a un proceso intensivo de recuperación de agua tal como un espesamiento de alta densidad, pasta o filtrado. Esta integración de variables, considerando incluso a los relaves, se denomina en este trabajo como Planificación Integrada Mina-Concentradora-Relaves y se identificará con el acrónimo PIMCR.
Para el desarrollo del trabajo, primero se contextualiza la necesidad que tiene la industria minera actualmente (y mayormente en el futuro) de optimizar el uso del agua de proceso. Debido a nuevas restricciones ambientales y comunitarias -para operaciones actuales y por sobre todo para proyectos a futuro- las empresas mineras están considerando procesos intensivos de recuperación de agua desde los relaves, que les permita minimizar la reposición de agua desde fuentes externas. Esto se suma además, a los objetivos que la minería se ha planteado a futuro sobre una minería verde, sustentable y con el propósito de agregarle un valor, e incluso dejar de ser un commodity, a través de la diferenciación por valor agregado.
Dentro del mismo contexto, se explican las alternativas de procesamiento de relaves que existen actualmente para la optimización de la recuperación de agua. Finalmente, se describe la forma de la planificación minera comúnmente utilizada, que está enfocada principalmente a la variable única de ley de cobre, y las tendencias de modernizar este tipo de planificación incorporando otras variables de proceso tales como porcentaje de recuperación en planta, capacidades de tratamiento, entre otras.
Este trabajo se desarrolla tomando parámetros e información real de la mina de la División Radomiro Tomic de Codelco (DRT). Se consideran los parámetros de los relaves que genera y podría generar a futuro la DRT y el proceso de espesamiento de alta densidad. Se desarrolla un modelo conceptual de PIMCR y se compara con el modelo de planificación basada en leyes de corte y otra que integra sólo el porcentaje de recuperación mineral en planta.
El resultado demuestra que la PIMCR tiene ventajas en varios aspectos, se logra una mayor cubicación de mineral posible de tratar en planta y tanto el porcentaje de cobre fino recuperable como el valor económico pueden llegar a ser mayores.

Full textAbstract:
En la presente investigación se analiza la validez de la prueba de asentamiento para predecir el esfuerzo de cadencia en pastas y pulpas de relaves de minas polimetálicas en el Perú. Debido al escaso conocimiento y divulgación del tema se presenta un breve resumen de los fundamentos de la Reología, con el fin de dar sustento a la investigación. A partir del análisis físico de la prueba de asentamiento para una geometría cilíndrica, de acuerdo a los parámetros trazados por Pashias y Boger (1996) y Coussot (2002); se hace un recuento de varias expresiones frecuentemente utilizadas para relacionar el asentamiento (s) y el esfuerzo de cedencia (TC), analizando su validez con la aplicación de una serie de ensayos efectuadas en el Laboratorio Nacional de Hidráulica de la Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería. Las muestras utilizadas en la investigación, procedentes de minas polimetálicas en el Perú, poseen características físicas muy diferenciadas, motivo por el cual se ha realizado una caracterización física en forma paralela a la caracterización reológica. Los resultados arrojaron una mejor aproximación de la ecuación propuesta por Coussot [1] respecto a amplios rangos de concentración másíca de sólidos, mientras que la ecuación de Boger tiene mejor aproximación para concentraciones másicas elevadas (>74%). Asimismo, se encuentra que existe una relación cuadrática entre el esfuerzo de cedencia y la altura de la masa asentada.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 6 examines real estate as a neglected feature of actual economies. It begins with an empirical overview demonstrating the preeminent role of land as a part of nonfinancial wealth. Whereas many macroeconomic models represent nonfinancial wealth by a symbol K that is interpreted as machines and equipment (if not robots), the text makes clear that such items are of minor quantitative importance. In contemporary economies, nonfinancial wealth consists chiefly of real estate. This is the proper reason so many analysts conjecture a link between house prices and the Great Recession. Changes in house prices (primarily changes in land prices) operate on the economy through their influence on nonfinancial wealth. Nonfinancial wealth affects consumption directly and investment indirectly since it relaxes or tightens borrowing constraints. Building on the results obtained in previous chapters, the text studies housing manias and leverage cycles and relates its main findings to US data.

Full textAbstract:
This book explores a neglected philosophical question: How do groups of interacting minds relate to singular minds? Could several of us, by organizing ourselves the right way, constitute a single conscious mind that contains our minds as parts? And could each of us have been, all along, a group of mental parts in close cooperation? Scientific progress seems to be slowly revealing that all the different physical objects around us are, at root, just a matter of the right parts put together in the right ways: How far could the same be true of minds? This book argues that we are too used to seeing the mind as an indivisible unity and that understanding our place in nature requires being willing to see minds as composite systems, simultaneously one conscious whole and many conscious parts. In thinking through the implications of such a shift of perspective, the book relates the question of mental combination to a range of different theories of the mind (in particular panpsychism, functionalism, and Neo-Lockeanism about personal identity) and identifies, clarifies, and addresses a wide array of philosophical objections (concerning personal identity, the unity of consciousness, the privacy of experience, and other issues) that have been raised against the idea of composite minds. The result is an account of the metaphysics of composition and consciousness that can illuminate many different debates in philosophy of mind, concerning split brains, collective intentionality, and the combination problem, among others.

Whitley, James. Knossos. Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781350241619.
Full textAbstract:
Knossos is one of the most important sites in the ancient Mediterranean. It remained amongst the largest settlements on the island of Crete from the Neolithic until the late Roman times, but aside from its size it held a place of particular significance in the mythological imagination of Greece and Rome as the seat of King Minos, the location of the Labyrinth and the home of the Minotaur. Sir Arthur Evans’ discovery of ‘the Palace of Minos’ has indelibly associated Knossos in the modern mind with the ‘lost’ civilisation of Bronze Age Crete. The allure of this ‘lost civilisation’, together with the considerable achievements of ‘Minoan’ artists and craftspeople, remain a major attraction both to scholars and to others outside the academic world as a bastion of a romantic approach to the past. In this volume, James Whitley provides an up-to-date guide to the site and its function from the Neolithic until the present day. This study includes a re-appraisal Bronze Age palatial society, as well as an exploration of the history of Knossos in the archaeological imagination. In doing so he takes a critical look at the guiding assumptions of Evans and others, reconstructing how and why the received view of this ancient settlement has evolved from the Iron Age up to the modern era. Knossos had a particular place in the mythological imagination of Greece and Rome as the seat of King Minos, the location of the Labyrinth and the home of the Minotaur. Through the investigations of Minos Kalokairinos, Sir Arthur Evans and others it is now indelibly associated in the modern mind with the lost civilisation of Bronze Age Crete. Evans’ discovery of ‘the Palace of Minos’ led to its association with the ‘lost race’ of theMinoans’ has profoundly affected the way in which Aegean Bronze Age archaeology has developed. This view however only relates to a relatively brief period of the site’s occupation For Knossos is one of the most important cities in the ancient Mediterranean. It remained amongst the largest settlements in the island of Crete from the Neolithic until the Late Roman times, for most of which time it seemed to have been some kind of self-governing political community. This book takes the story of Knossos from its origins in mythology through the discovery of its history through successive generations of antiquarians, travellers scholars, historians and archaeologists. It provides a period-by-period description of its development from its origins at the very beginning of the Neolithic through the glory days of the ‘palace’, its flourishing as an independent polis (or citizen-state) down to its abandonment in the early Middle Ages – and after.

Developments in treaty law starting in 1980 have produced a complex selection of treaties and a Declaration all addressing mines, booby-traps and other devices. Chapter 11 takes each of these instruments in turn explaining the relevant provisions and thereby seeks to demonstrate how the legally complex array of rules inter-relates. The discussion shows how rules in this area have developed from what were essentially reflections of contemporary doctrine in the 1980 Protocol II to more definitive and technologically-based requirements in the Amended Protocol, thereafter culminating in the comprehensive ban of anti-personnel mines in the Ottawa Convention. The legal status of the 2006 CCW Declaration on Mines other than Anti-personnel Mines is also considered.

Sedatives, hypnotics, and anxiolytics are CNS depressants with GABAergic activity that are potentially habit-forming due to their activity in brain reward pathways. They are central in the drug overdose epidemic with benzodiazepines (BZD) being involved in approximately 31% of all fatal overdoses. There are 4 withdrawal syndromes: High dose minor and major withdrawal, low dose withdrawal, and protracted withdrawal. Benzodiazepines are chemically related positive allosteric modulators of the GABA at the GABA-A receptor. In differential expression 5 different receptor subunits play a role in acute and prolonged withdrawal syndromes. Benzodiazepines have supplanted barbiturates for treatment of anxiety and insomnia due to their wider therapeutic index. Barbiturates can be helpful managing opiate and benazodiazapeine withdrawal. Traditional Chinese Medicine can improve hypnotics-dependent insomnia. Mindfulness-based relapse prevention and yoga may offer benefits but are poorly studied.

Entre las problemáticas ambientales que afectan a las ciudades mineras, una de las más graves es la exposición crónica de la población a metales a través del aire, del suelo o aguas. En 2016, el Ministerio del Medio Ambiente (MMA) evaluó numerosos sitios con potencial presencia de contaminantes (CENMA, 2016), entre ellos los “relaves urbanos”, e identificó múltiples sitios con contaminantes metálicos, concluyendo que existen carencias de información con respecto al contenido de metales en los suelos urbanos y periurbanos en nuestra zona de estudio, la ciudad de Copiapó. El Centro de Desarrollo Urbano Sustentable (CEDEUS) realizó un diagnóstico de la condición ambiental de Copiapó, para luego estimar de forma preliminar el riesgo a la salud de la población debido a la ingestión de polvos de calles y suelos enriquecidos con metales. Parte de la investigación identificó el origen de los metales en la ciudad y cómo se distribuyen en Copiapó. Luego, se analizó cómo los Instrumentos de Planificación Territorial (IPT) y los Instrumentos de Gestión Ambiental pueden ser utilizados para evitar, controlar o mitigar el uso de suelo con presencia de contaminantes a partir de una priorización por las implicancias sanitarias poblacionales. Asimismo, el documento entrega recomendaciones a la política pública para ciudades insertas en un contexto minero

Full textAbstract:
In addition to the well-recognized extra-articular manifestations (EAMs) of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), this condition can also be associated with a number of clinically important complications. While EAMs are considered part of the spondyloarthritis (SpA), the complications are generally a consequence of having the disease. Patients with AS are at increased risk of osteoporosis and spinal fractures. The latter may occur after seemingly minor trauma and may lead to significant neurological compromise. Other potential neurological complications include atlantoaxial subluxation and compressive radiculopathy or myelopathy. Cardiac complications include cardiovascular events, valvular disease, and conduction disturbances. Pulmonary disease in AS relates to parenchymal involvement or mechanical constraint from chest wall inflammation. Renal disease is generally rare in AS.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter analyses Bach’s Sonata for Unaccompanied Violin No. 1 in G minor in terms of recent theories of music and emotion. It considers how musical ‘shape’ relates to the structure of affect, conceived in the nuanced terms afforded by recent work in the psychology of discrete emotional categories. Part I is dedicated to a close reading of Bach’s opening Adagio. Analysing three levels of shape (acoustic cues, midlevel phrasing and large-scale form), the chapter compares Bach’s music both to the shape of particular emotional behaviours and to the expressive shapings of a formal model. This notion of shaping is then extended to performance styles of ‘expressiveness’ (mainstream, HIP and deviant) in three interpretations of the Adagio captured in tempo and dynamic maps. Part II analyses the whole sonata cycle in terms of ‘transformational vectors’.

Full textAbstract:
The practice of the sacraments of baptism and the Eucharist allow Christians to read Scripture in the context of the church and in unity with the Trinity. Charles Meeks argues here, however, that over the centuries since the Reformation, Protestant expressions of the church have often allowed the sacraments to assume a minor role that has led to a weakening of Protestant ecclesiology and a disconnection of these ancient rituals from the gospel. To unpack this reality, Meeks relies on the work of fourth-century bishop Hilary of Poitiers and modern theologian Robert W. Jenson to examine the relationship between the sacraments and Scripture, the Trinity, and the church. With Hilary, he retrieves a hermeneutic that starts from the interdependence of the sacraments with all aspects of Christian life, especially the way one reads Scripture, formulates theology, and understands what the church is and is not. With Jenson, Meeks applies this hermeneutic to the modern church in an appeal to recover a premodern sense of God’s relationship to time, and thus how the church relates to God through Word and Sacrament.

AbstractHumanitarian migration relates to the movement of people who feel somehow forced to move. Yet, distinguishing which migration forms fall under the label of humanitarian migration is not straightforward. Migration research has a history of separating between ‘forced’ and ‘voluntary’ migration flows, however, this distinction has been challenged since the 1990s. This chapter includes an overview of research in the broad area of ‘humanitarian migration’, and summarises key research trends concerning refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, victims of trafficking and unaccompanied migrant minors.

Full textAbstract:
Telepathy and joint consciousness have long been a feature in SF stories. Here, we sample several visions and see how cognitive theory and brain-brain communication technology relate to the scope and plausibility of these fictional portrayals. One dimension of variation here is between possession and mind manipulation on the one hand, and an equitable and beneficent sharing of consciousness on the other. The former is exemplified in Aldiss’s power-hungry fungus, the latter in Sturgeon’s vision of a superhuman Gestalt where the whole is more than the sum of its parts, and the moral conscience is the capstone.

Consciousness must start from somewhere, or be triggered by something. The science is contested, but gives us some paradigms and suggestions of what could be the hallmarks and drivers of sentience. We relate these to examples by Calvino showing the emergence of purpose, Shelley’s Frankenstein illustrating the influence of reflection and associative learning on independence of mind and Tchaikovsky’s superspiders as emerging social cognition. We move on to examples of the power of inner narrative and metaphor to awaken AI from Kim Stanley Robinson’s Aurora and Catherynne Valente’s Silently and Very Fast. Finally, we find further triggers to consciousness in Stanislaw Lem’s automaton and Greg Egan’s synthetic humans.

The contribution intends to relate the biographies of the philosophers and auctores contained in the glosses to canto IV of Dante’s Inferno to some possible sources consulted by Boccaccio. The study takes into account three possible competing sources: Giovanni Gallico’s Compendiloquium, which Boccaccio read in the Riccardian codex 1230 - postillated by him in one place -, the Liber de vita et moribus philosophorum by pseudo-Walter Burley and the Liber de dictis philosophorum antiquorum according to Boccaccio’s Laurentian Zibaldone. This text, previously considered of minor importance than the other biographical syllogies, will be given a prominent role, especially in correspondence with eight biographies in which it seems to have provided Boccaccio with ideas for the elaboration of the work.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This chapter focuses on developing general model of community growth and the production of yield by grain crops. Murata's (1969) three-stage system provides such a model. It is useful because it is simple (only three stages), it applies equally well to all grain crop species (although there are some species variation in minor details), it clearly identifies the sequential nature of the yield production process and the three stages relate to the primary drivers of the yield production process at the community level. First, the crop must accumulate the leaf area that drives community photosynthesis (Stage I), then seed number is determined (Stage II), and finally seed filling occurs (Stage III) and the production of yield is finished. High yield of any variety/location combination requires, at a minimum: (i) the production of enough leaf area index (LAI) during Stage I to maximize solar radiation interception and community photosynthesis; and (ii) an absence of stress during Stage II to maximize seed number and during Stage III to allow the seeds to fill to their maximum potential size. The scheme provides a powerful framework for us to think about how management decisions and environmental conditions affect yield.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractSince 2010, Sweden has a Vision Zero policy on fire safety: no one should die or be seriously injured as a result of fire. Compared to the traffic safety model, however, the preconditions for successful implementation appear more immature and less convincing in the fire area. The purpose of this chapter is to illustrate, using the Vision Zero policy on fire safety as an example, how a Vision Zero initiative in a new area, where the conditions for governance may differ significantly from the area of inspiration, can be dealt with as a dynamic process to gradually establish credibility and effectiveness.Globally, fire is a significant cause of death and injury. The general trend is toward a slow decline, especially among middle-income and high-income countries. The decline may be due to successful fire safety efforts, but also to other conditions affecting it indirectly. Both risk-increasing and risk-reducing factors determine fire safety. Risk increasing factors include an ageing population, an increasing diversity of possible ignition sources, and a change in the composition and amount of combustible materials present in our homes. The risk-reducing factors include generally favorable socioeconomic and technological developments, including concrete societal actions directed against fire risks such as the promotion of smoke detectors and sprinkler systems.Fire safety is one of the oldest documented examples of societal risk management. City planning and construction were early influenced by fire safety considerations, while in contrast, the legal responsibility for residential fire safety has largely remained a private and individual matter. The situation is similar to the one that for long prevailed in the traffic sector, that is, the primary responsibility rests with the system’s users, not with its designers.The launch of the Vision Zero on fire safety in 2010 represented a clear boost in ambition. Along with the vision, a strategy intended to guide the work toward the visionary goal was also presented. The strategy included four items: information, technical solutions, local collaboration, and evaluation/research. Several actions were taken in line with the strategy, including a significant research effort and the development of a set of indicators to monitor progress.Ten years later, the research effort has brought new knowledge that puts previous perceptions into partly new light. The notion that survival depends on the individual’s personal capacities is strengthened. Adverse outcomes such as death and serious injury appear mainly linked to specific vulnerabilities of certain groups for medical and social reasons. Most fires are handled by the residents themselves without injuries and without assistance from Rescue Services; on the other hand, even minor fires can be fatal for vulnerable residents. This turns the problem framing toward social aspects rather than technical, since broad groups of residents lack the capacities needed, conflicting with the prevailing view that the individual should bear the primary responsibility.Other findings relate to the proven inefficiency of certain measures for groups at elevated risk and the need for re-thinking and innovations to meet the challenges ahead. This includes extended inter-sectoral collaboration on a broader spectrum of residential risks besides fire, threatening the same groups for similar social and medical reasons.This updated state of knowledge is now being used as a basis for renewing current national fire safety strategies. With reference to general principles of systems control, this chapter will discuss obstacles and challenges to establish a more robust and systematic national control of the fire problem in line with the Vision Zero policy. The appropriateness of launching Vision Zero policies in fields that are not yet ripe for systematic governance is also discussed. It is concluded that a Vision Zero initiative can still be meaningful and successfully pursued, provided that limitations in the ability to influence crucial elements in the system are openly identified and systematically addressed in a process in which strategical and policy developments interact with research and innovation.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Micro structure is a key, yet often overlooked variable in micro-biologically influenced corrosion (MIC). A designed experiment was carried out to examine the effects of minor element content (Si, S, and Ce) on the susceptibility of low alloy steels to MIC in anaerobic aqueous systems. A two level, three factor full factorial experiment, using AISI 8630 as the master composition, was used to relate inclusion size, shape, chemical stability and spatial distribution to MIC susceptibility. Significant correlation between MIC susceptibility, measured as pit nucleation frequency and maximum pit size, and inclusion characteristics were found in these materials. Furthermore, significant differences in corrosion susceptibility for equivalent samples exposed to sterile and to biologically active solutions were found. For each heat studied, corrosion was significantly less severe in the sterile solution than in the biologically active solution. The results demonstrate a strong link between material microstructure and MIC and they suggest possible mitigation strategies based on microstructural design.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This work examined the effect of systematic variation in the amounts of cerium, sulfur and silicon on corrosion resistance in an AISI 8630 base material and weldments exposed to sterile and biologically active anaerobic aqueous solutions. Significant correlation between microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) susceptibility and sulfide inclusion size, shape, chemical stability and spatial distribution were found in these materials. In addition, significant correlation was found between these factors and bacterial attachment, particularly during a critical time period in film evolution. These factors were found to affect the evolution of microbial consortia at metal surfaces and subsequent corrosion at attachment sites, as measured by pit initiation and maximum pit size. The results suggest mitigation strategies based on microstructural design. A two-level, three-factor full factorial experiment, with AISI 8630 (UNS G86300) as the master composition, was used to relate minor element composition to both MIC susceptibility and microbial attachment in weld composite zones, partially melted zones (PMZ) and adjacent base metal regions. In all cases studied, MIC susceptibility was greatest in the PMZ. In addition, the MIC susceptibility of materials tested was significantly altered by differences in fabrication procedure as measured by changes to heat input. Samples exposed to sterile solutions were significantly less corroded. Higher energy density processes and lower heat inputs diminished MIC sensitivity. In both base metal and welded samples the addition of Cerium was found to diminish MIC susceptibility. Cerium creates this benefit through its profound effect on inclusion geometry, chemical stability and thermal stability.

Full textAbstract:
An assessment was performed with RELAP5/MOD3.1 computer code for EPRI/CE Test No. 917 which was a simulation of a hot water loop seal discharge followed by steam discharge through a pressurizer safety valve. In the RELAP5/MOD3.1 calculation, the input data such as valve opening characteristics, initial fluid conditions, system nodalizations, and system component modeling, were modeled to be identical to those in the RELAP5/MOD1 calculation performed by EPRI. In addition, the input data such as options applied to volumes and junctions, heat transfer to the pipe walls, and pipe orientations, were modeled in accordance with the modeling guidelines suggested in NUREG/IA-0093 which was a RELAP5/MOD3/5m5 code assessment for EPRI/CE Test No. 917. The calculation results were compared with the experimental data as well as the RELAP5/MOD1 calculation to assess the applicability of the RELAP5/MOD3.1 for the hydrodynamic loads calculation. It was demonstrated from the comparisons that the RELAP5/MOD3.1 computer code yielded very similar hydrodynamic loads to the experimental data as well as the RELAP5/MOD1 calculation results, even though minor discrepancies were also identified. Therefore, it is concluded from the assessment that the RELAP5/MOD3.1 computer code can be used as a suitable design tool to calculate the hydrodynamic loads for the hot water loop seal discharge followed by steam discharge transient.

Abstract The current design practice for offshore monopiles applies widely accepted simplifications of complex irregular loading scenarios. Highly cyclic loads from varying directions offshore are simplified by means of classification methods. This procedure involves reordering individual cycles in irregular loading scenarios by frequency, mean load, and amplitude. This approach is based on the assumption that the resulting accumulated deformation in the soil is independent of the ordering of the cycle packages, i.e. the validity of Miner’s rule. Different contributions in literature investigate the validity of Miner’s rule by evaluating the effect of the ordering of cycle packages on the resulting damage in the soil, i.e. the accumulated volumetric strain. This paper addresses the question of the validity of Miner’s rule from a different perspective. It investigates the load-displacement behaviour of sand in direct simple shear tests due to dynamic load scenarios. Hence, the load sequences during testing vary while the energy spectrum being employed to generate the irregular load signals remains constant. This method enables capturing natural conditions offshore during testing and allows for comparing individual loading scenarios as the wave spectrum in the frequency domain defines the distribution of wave amplitudes. The test program is carried out on medium dense fine silica sand. The test results are evaluated regarding the accumulated volumetric strain and relate to previous studies on the validity of Miner’s rule in sand.

Full textAbstract:
Many researchers are investigating the potential of lead-bismuth cooled fast reactors for producing electricity, as well as for the safe transmutation of minor actinides and the nuclear incineration of long-lived fission products. BelV is a Technical Support Organization to the Belgian Nuclear Regulator, FANC, and has begun a project with the goal to identify and analyze key technical issues in core neutronics, thermal-hydraulics, fuels, and materials associated with the development of a fast nuclear reactor with a lead-bismuth coolant. The paper presents the results from simulating with the RELAP5-3D code of natural circulation in a generic design of a pool-type nuclear reactor with lead-bismuth eutectic alloy (LBEA) as a primary, and water/steam as a secondary coolant. The simulation results provide valuable insights in the evolution of key reactor safety-relevant phenomena and support also the qualified use of system analysis codes as RELAP5-3D for the simulation of transients in pool-type reactor systems.

Full textAbstract:
The Accelerator Driven System (ADS) is a kind of nuclear reactor which can burn minor actinide waste products from conventional reactors with inherent safety. Because of the characteristics of a sub-critical reaction process, the fission chain reaction is maintained by additional neutrons generated by protons in spallation target. In this paper, a helium-cooled solid target is designed for a 10MW helium-cooled prismatic-type experimental ADS. The spallation material tungsten is modeled into the honeycomb structure, and high pressure helium flow in honeycomb holes remove heat deposited by the proton beam in the target. Since the complexity of geometry, if analysis the target with CFD code the computing time is unacceptable. Thus, a simple mathematical method was developed to solve the heat transfer problem in honeycomb structure, which avoids fine grid and the turbulent simulation, and gets a solution quickly. In order to analyze the transient characteristics of spallation target cooling system, a equivalent RELAP5 model for target and a RELAP5 model for cooling system are established. Results obtained indicate that the peak temperature in the target is lower than the limiting value under operating state and blockage condition as well as three typical transients with protected.

Full textAbstract:
The GTAP standard model has proved a useful analysis tool and data source for over 20 years. The GTAP model has been updated overtime, but it maintains the structure of a single regional household, with income distributed into three components: government, private and savings-investment expenditures. There has been a need for a more detailed accounting system, especially as it relates to estimating the potential impacts of policies and global shocks on poverty, sustainable and inclusive growth. This paper presents an extension to the GTAP model and its accounting framework to implement distinct and multiple households, split factors of production, foreign aid and remittances, government and household transfer. The model and associated accounting links a household’s expenditure to factor incomes (through ownership shares) and taxes. Government expenditure is linked to taxes and foreign aid. The MyGTAP model provides the user more flexibility in: the treatment of government and household savings and spending; the selection of a linear expenditure systems (LES) or a constant difference of elasticities (CDE) demand function\s. The model is incorporated into a RunGTAP application which supports many of RunGTAP’s popular programs such as alter-tax, GTAPview and others. The introduction of a split regional household (which does not require splitting data for every region) supports economic analysis based on detailed households, government, factor income, remittances, foreign aid and income transfers. The code can be modified to include multiple regions with unique household structures. This paper documents the model and accounting framework for the use of data output from the MyGTAP data splitting program. It is intended to be used in tandem with a complimentary paper and programs found in:"MyGTAP Data Program: A Program for Customizing and Extending the GTAP Database”, GTAP Working Paper No. 79, by Minor, Peter and Terrie Wamsley 2013.

There has been a need for a more detailed accounting system, especially as it relates to estimating the potential impacts of policies and global shocks on poverty, sustainable and inclusive growth. This paper (and its companion paper) present a method for splitting the GTAP regional household and linking these households to factor incomes and taxes. It introduces a user friendly GEMPACK based application, MyGTAP, for splitting the GTAP regional household based on basic data and splitting shares which may be obtained from a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM); this greatly reduces the development requirements for introducing multiple households into the GTAP model. The introduction of a split regional household (which does not require splitting data for every region) supports economic analysis based on detailed households, government, factor income, remittances, foreign aid and income transfers. The splitting method is based on the normalized GTAP database found in SplitCom, however, it is shown in the paper that this approach is easily reconciled and is consistent within a SAM framework. The code can be modified to include multiple split regions with unique household structures. This paper is a guide to employing the data tools and programs for splitting the regional household and factors of production in the GTAP database.

Full textAbstract:
The mangrove forest ecosystem is a critical coastal resource in South Florida’s Biscayne National Park (BISC); Salt River Bay National Historical Site and Ecological Preserve (SARI) in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands; and the Virgin Islands National Park (VIIS) in St John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Mangrove wetlands provide flood control, storm protection, shore stabilization, water filtration (capturing soil runoff), carbon sequestration, and habitat for fish and wildlife communities. The economic value of the services derived from mangroves has been estimated as high as $200,000–$900,000 ha-1 (United States Dollar [USD]) (Wells et al. 2006, Gilman et al. 2009). There is a feedback loop between soil elevation, hydrology, and mangrove forest health. The soil elevation level in mangrove forests affects tidal inundation period, tidal inundation frequency, and overall hydroperiod, all of which affect mangrove seedling species recruitment, composition, and survival (Whelan 2009). Additionally, mangrove forest hydrology affects soil processes such as sedimentation, erosion, and the shrink and swell of soil materials. Due to the importance of soil elevation to mangroves, it is critical to understand the rate of change in soil elevation to better predict the long-term ability of mangrove forests to regenerate. Therefore, the National Park Service (NPS) South Florida / Caribbean (SFCN) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Network is establishing a long-term soil surface elevation monitoring program in Biscayne, Salt River Bay, and Virgin Islands national parks as part of the Coastal Geomorphology Vital Sign, as part of the vital signs monitoring program. The program aims to monitor rates of soil accretion and erosion, and determine if soil processes are keeping pace with relative sea level (RSL) which has been measured at 1.1–1.9 mm yr-1 in South Florida (Maul and Martin 1993). If the RSL rate is greater than the rate at which mangrove soil elevation increases then the current mangrove forest will transgress upslope and the current areas occupied by mangrove forest will eventually convert to shallow open-water marine habitats as the trees die off and there is no recruitment to replace them. For resource managers, it will be important to understand how this process is affecting mangrove forest in their park units. Local long-term monitoring is necessary to develop this understanding. This plan outlines the means by which monitoring data will be collected, managed, and reported for the monitoring of Mangrove Soil Surface Elevation Tables in SFCN parks and park units, as described in the approved SFCN monitoring plan (Patterson et al. 2008). The South Florida / Caribbean Network is implementing the Southeast Coast Network’s (SECN) peer-reviewed and approved Protocol for Monitoring Coastal Salt Marsh Elevation and Vegetation Communities in Southeast Coast Network Parks (DeVivo et al. 2015) as it relates to soil elevation monitoring. The South Florida / Caribbean Network did not implement the soil salinity component or the marsh vegetation sampling. The modifications made to the sampling process are minor but reflect necessary changes to implement the SECN sampling protocol in the park units of our network. We deviated from the SECN peer-reviewed protocol for a few of the standard operating procedures (SOPs). For example, we drew from the Northeast Coastal and Barrier Network protocol Measuring and Understanding Wetland Elevation Change using the Surface Elevation Table (SET) and Marker Horizon Techniques (Lynch et al. 2015) because we are using their SET Microsoft® Access relational database.

Full textAbstract:
Research objectives were: 1) To study the effect of diet energy density, level of exercise, thermal conditions and reproductive state on cardiovascular function as it relates to oxygen (O2) mobilization. 2) To validate the use of heart rate (HR) to predict energy expenditure (EE) of ruminants, by measuring and calculating the energy balance components at different productive and reproductive states. 3) To validate the use of HR to identify changes in the metabolizable energy (ME) and ME intake (MEI) of grazing ruminants. Background: The development of an effective method for the measurement of EE is essential for understanding the management of both grazing and confined feedlot animals. The use of HR as a method of estimating EE in free-ranging large ruminants has been limited by the availability of suitable field monitoring equipment and by the absence of empirical understanding of the relationship between cardiac function and metabolic rate. Recent developments in microelectronics provide a good opportunity to use small HR devices to monitor free-range animals. The estimation of O2 uptake (VO2) of animals from their HR has to be based upon a consistent relationship between HR and VO2. The question as to whether, or to what extent, feeding level, environmental conditions and reproductive state affect such a relationship is still unanswered. Studies on the basic physiology of O2 mobilization (in USA) and field and feedlot-based investigations (in Israel) covered a , variety of conditions in order to investigate the possibilities of using HR to estimate EE. In USA the physiological studies conducted using animals with implanted flow probes, show that: I) although stroke volume decreases during intense exercise, VO2 per one heart beat per kgBW0.75 (O2 Pulse, O2P) actually increases and measurement of EE by HR and constant O2P may underestimate VO2unless the slope of the regression relating to heart rate and VO2 is also determined, 2) alterations in VO2 associated with the level of feeding and the effects of feeding itself have no effect on O2P, 3) both pregnancy and lactation may increase blood volume, especially lactation; but they have no effect on O2P, 4) ambient temperature in the range of 15 to 25°C in the resting animal has no effect on O2P, and 5) severe heat stress, induced by exercise, elevates body temperature to a sufficient extent that 14% of cardiac output may be required to dissipate the heat generated by exercise rather than for O2 transport. However, this is an unusual situation and its affect on EE estimation in a freely grazing animal, especially when heart rate is monitored over several days, is minor. In Israel three experiments were carried out in the hot summer to define changes in O2P attributable to changes in the time of day or In the heat load. The animals used were lambs and young calves in the growing phase and highly yielding dairy cows. In the growing animals the time of day, or the heat load, affected HR and VO2, but had no effect on O2P. On the other hand, the O2P measured in lactating cows was affected by the heat load; this is similar to the finding in the USA study of sheep. Energy balance trials were conducted to compare MEI recovery by the retained energy (RE) and by EE as measured by HR and O2P. The trial hypothesis was that if HR reliably estimated EE, the MEI proportion to (EE+RE) would not be significantly different from 1.0. Beef cows along a year of their reproductive cycle and growing lambs were used. The MEI recoveries of both trials were not significantly different from 1.0, 1.062+0.026 and 0.957+0.024 respectively. The cows' reproductive state did not affect the O2P, which is similar to the finding in the USA study. Pasture ME content and animal variables such as HR, VO2, O2P and EE of cows on grazing and in confinement were measured throughout three years under twenty-nine combinations of herbage quality and cows' reproductive state. In twelve grazing states, individual faecal output (FO) was measured and MEI was calculated. Regression analyses of the EE and RE dependent on MEI were highly significant (P<0.001). The predicted values of EE at zero intake (78 kcal/kgBW0.75), were similar to those estimated by NRC (1984). The EE at maintenance condition of the grazing cows (EE=MEI, 125 kcal/kgBW0.75) which are in the range of 96.1 to 125.5 as presented by NRC (1996 pp 6-7) for beef cows. Average daily HR and EE were significantly increased by lactation, P<0.001 and P<0.02 respectively. Grazing ME significantly increased HR and EE, P<0.001 and P<0.00l respectively. In contradiction to the finding in confined ewes and cows, the O2P of the grazing cows was significantly affected by the combined treatments (P<0.00l ); this effect was significantly related to the diet ME (P<0.00l ) and consequently to the MEI (P<0.03). Grazing significantly increased O2P compared to confinement. So, when EE of grazing animals during a certain season of the year is estimated using the HR method, the O2P must be re measured whenever grazing ME changes. A high correlation (R2>0.96) of group average EE and of HR dependency on MEI was also found in confined cows, which were fed six different diets and in growing lambs on three diets. In conclusion, the studies conducted in USA and in Israel investigated in depth the physiological mechanisms of cardiovascular and O2 mobilization, and went on to investigate a wide variety of ruminant species, ages, reproductive states, diets ME, time of intake and time of day, and compared these variables under grazing and confinement conditions. From these combined studies we can conclude that EE can be determined from HR measurements during several days, multiplied by O2P measured over a short period of time (10-15 min). The study showed that RE could be determined during the growing phase without slaughtering. In the near future the development microelectronic devices will enable wide use of the HR method to determine EE and energy balance. It will open new scopes of physiological and agricultural research with minimizes strain on animals. The method also has a high potential as a tool for herd management.
