Abstract:
The load history that blade/disk contacts in jet engine attachment hardware are subject to can be very complex. Using finite element method (FEM) to track changes in the contact tractions due to changing loads can be computationally very expensive. For two-dimensional plane-strain contact problems with friction involving similar/dissimilar isotropic materials, the contact tractions can be related to the initial gap function and the slip function using coupled Cauchy singular integral equations (SIEs). The effect of load history on the contact tractions is illustrated by presenting results for an example fretting “mission.” For the case of dissimilar isotropic materials the mission results show the effect of the coupling between the shear traction and the contact pressure.

Abstract:
As immersive technologies have become ubiquitous today, traditional museums are finding success augmenting existing exhibits to increase visitors’ satisfaction. However, due to the immutable nature of house museums, and their tendency to place visitors in direct contact with historical artifacts, museum managers are seeking original approaches to cultural preservation. Implementing mixed reality systems into historic house museums is one such approach. The goal of this study is to develop and test a conceptual matrix that guides how designers use the affordances of mixed reality systems to create experiences that align with the range of historical narratives found in house museums. Experiences that can contribute to improving visitors’ satisfaction, self-interpretation, and understanding of the homeowner’s life and the community within which they lived. Building on human-centered design methods, the researcher developed and tested a prototype of an augmented reality (AR) mobile application centered on the Pope House Museum in Raleigh, North Carolina. The outcome of the research suggests house museum visitors should have agency in deciding the lens through which they experience the variety of historical narratives present in the home.

Abstract:
Fretting is a frictional contact phenomenon that leads to damage at the contact region between two nominally-clamped surfaces subjected to oscillatory motion of small amplitudes. The region of contact between the blade and the disk at the dovetail joint is one of the critical locations for fretting damage. The nominally flat geometry of contacting surfaces in the dovetail causes high contact stress levels near the edges of contact. A numerical approach based on the solution to singular integral equations that characterize the two-dimensional plane strain elastic contact of two similar isotropic surfaces presents itself as an efficient technique to obtain the sharp near-surface stress gradients associated with the geometric transitions. Due to its ability to analyze contacts of any two arbitrary smooth surfaces and its computational efficiency, it can be used as a powerful design tool to analyze the effects of various factors like shape of the contact surface and load histories on fretting. The calculations made using the stresses obtained from the above technique are consistent with the results of the experiments conducted in the laboratory.

Abstract:
Background: Present study was designed as to determine the probability and relative risk of COVID-19 in suspects with positive contacts history. Methods: A cross sectional observational study was conducted in district Nowshera on COVID-19 suspects/patients. A total of 365 suspects/patients were included from Feb 10 to April 20, 2020. All the data was uploaded on SPSS version 25 that was designed for this particular study. Results: Out of total 365, 264(72.3%) were males and 101(27.7%) females. The descriptive statistics of age with mean and standard deviation was 35+16 years. 12/41(29.26%) positive cases were recorded in age>55 years of age. Historyof contact with positive COVID-19 patients was contributing in35/41(85.36%) confirmed cases. There was a significant relation of an increase in age with viral infectivity (Chi-Square=11.48, p=0.009). A strong relationship of positive close contact history with COVID-19 infection (Chi-Square=19.56, p=0.001) was recorded. The probability of the infection with 2019-nCoV in patients with close contact history was 6.12 times more than suspects with no contact history (OR=6.12, 95%CI, 2.5-14.9). The relative risk of infection was (rr=1.75, 95%CI, 1.4-2.07) in suspects with positive contacts as compared to no contacts history (rr=0.28, 95%CI, 0.1-0.6). Conclusion: The probability, relative risk and correlation of history of contacts with strong suspects/ COVID-19 patients increase the chances of infectivity with 2019nCoV in folds.

LATE IN 1839, George Catlin arrived in London from New York with a collection of Native American artifacts, costumes, and some six hundred portraits and other paintings. Executed during the previous eight years in the Prairies and the Rockies, they showed the appearance, habitat and customs of various tribes. Catlin rented the Egyptian Hall, in Piccadilly, set up a wigwam made of twenty or more ornamented buffalo skins in the center, and proceeded to mount his exhibition. Initially attracting a good deal of favorable attention, it ran for two years before touring England, Scotland, Ireland, and finally France.

Abstract:
Background: The highest new case of leprosy in Indonesia was occupied by East Java Province for four consecutive years, with the number of new leprosy patients as many as 3880 in 2017. Purpose: This study aims to determine the characteristics of individual factors and risks factor for new leprosy cases. Methods: This research is observational analytic research with case control research design. The population of the case is new lepers that were diagnosed since January-September 2018. Meanwhile, the control population is skin poli patients who have not been diagnosed with leprosy and tuberculosis. Sampling technique used was simple random sampling. Variables studied were individual characteristics (age, gender, income) and individual risk factors including immunization status, contact history and population status. Results: Majority of the (57.90%) case respondents never received BCG immunization. 78.90% of the respondents case had history of contact with lepers before. 89.50% of respondents in cases and controls were permanent residents in Mojokerto Regency. Results of analysis of immunization status and contact history has significant influence to the new leprosy case. Status of not having BCG immunization (OR= 5.16; 95% CI= 1.23 <OR <21.55), p= 0.04) and history of having contact with lepers (OR= 6.43; 95% CI= 1, 52 <OR <27.24), p= 0.02) significantly affected new cases leprosy. Conclusion: There is an influence between non-immunization status and history of contact with new leprosy cases. It is important to carry out early detection of individuals in contact with lepers, especially household contacts and recommendations for repeated BCG vaccination

Abstract:
The purpose of this project was to evaluate the pattern of transmission in patients suffering from Multidrug resistant (MDR) Tuberculosis by assessing their contact information. Data were obtained and analyzed from 164 individuals suffering from MDR TB. Records were scanned to evaluate the presence ofa close contact with known history of Tuberculosis. Tabulations and analysis were performed in Microsoft Excel® and online calculators. Analysis of contact data showed that only 36% of the patients had a close contact with a known Tuberculosis patient. Chi-square test did not show any association between history ofpresence of a contact and the patients’ gender (p>0.5). Among the cases with established exposure with a TB patient among close contacts, 17.5% females and 12.5% males reported exposure with a contact outside the close family. Majority of patients were unaware of the presence of a known contact in their vicinity. There was no association between knowledge about exposure and patients’ gender. The study shows that efforts of active case finding should be employed to find the hidden cases of Tuberculosis in the society to stop the spread by those patients, who are unaware of their disease.

Abstract:
We have correlated the motility of the leading edge of fibroblasts, monitored by phase-contrast cinematography, with the relative distributions of several cytoskeletal elements (vinculin, tubulin, and actin) as well as with the contact patterns determined by interference reflection microscopy. This analysis has revealed the involvement of both ruffles and microspikes, as well as microtubules in the initiation of focal contact formation. Nascent vinculin sites within the leading edge or at its base, taken as primordial cell-substrate contacts, were invariably colocalized with sites that showed a history of transient, prolonged, or cyclic ruffling activity. Extended microspike structures, often preceded the formation of ruffles. Immunofluorescent labeling indicated that some of these primordial contacts were in close apposition to the ends of microtubules that penetrated into the leading edge. By fluorescence and electron microscopy short bundles of actin filaments found at the base of the leading edge were identified as presumptive, primordial contacts. It is concluded that ruffles and microspikes, either independently or in combination, initiate and mark the sites for future contact. Plaque proteins then accumulate (within 10-30 s) at the contract site and, beneath ruffles, induce localized bundling of actin filaments. We propose that all primordial contacts support traction for leading edge protrusion but that only some persist long enough to nucleate stress fiber assembly. Microtubules are postulated as the elements that select, stabilize, and potentiate the formation of these latter, long-lived contacts.

Abstract:
This paper discusses the historical borrowing of an enclitic across unrelated Papuan languages spoken along the lower Sogeram River in the Middle Ramu region of present-day Madang Province, Papua New Guinea. The enclitic *=a, which attached to the right edge of a prosodic unit, was borrowed from the Ramu family into the ancestor of three modern Sogeram languages. Both morphological and prosodic substance were borrowed, as was the dual functionality of the enclitic – as a pragmatic marker in independent utterances and a linking device on dependent domains. We discuss the clitic’s formal and functional properties as evidence for its contact-induced origin and subsequent historical development in western Sogeram, as well as the implications of these developments for our understanding of morphological and pragmatic borrowing. The complexities of this borrowing event highlight the potential for theories of language contact to benefit from collaborative research on previously unstudied contact areas.

Abstract:
The present paper represents a continuation of Sofonea and Matei's paper (Sofonea, M. and Matei, A. (2011) History-dependent quasivariational inequalities arising in contact mechanics. Eur. J. Appl. Math. 22, 471–491). There a new class of variational inequalities involving history-dependent operators was considered, an abstract existence and uniqueness result was proved and it was completed with a regularity result. Moreover, these results were used in the analysis of various frictional and frictionless models of contact. In this current paper we present a penalization method in the study of such inequalities. We start with an example which motivates our study; it concerns a mathematical model which describes the quasistatic contact between a viscoelastic body and a foundation; the material's behaviour is modelled with a constitutive law with long memory, the contact is frictionless and is modelled with a multivalued normal compliance condition and unilateral constraint. Then we introduce the abstract variational inequalities together with their penalizations. We prove the unique solvability of the penalized problems and the convergence of their solutions to the solution of the original problem, as the penalization parameter converges to zero. Finally, we turn back to our contact model, apply our abstract results in the study of this problem and provide their mechanical interpretation.

ABSTRACTWhile it has long been noted that Chinese Buddhist translations contain many new lexical and syntactic elements that were created due to the contact between Indic and Chinese languages during the translation process, few attempts have been made to systematically explore the major mechanisms of such contact-induced creations. This paper examines six mechanisms of contact-induced lexical creations and three mechanisms of contact-induced syntactic creations in Chinese Buddhist translations. All of these mechanisms have parallels in non-Sinitic language contacts. The parallels demonstrate that Chinese Buddhist translations and non-Sinitic language contacts show striking similarities in the ways in which they brought about new lexical and syntactic elements.

Abstract: The idea of the contact zone has already been of interest for archaeologists for a long time, but rarely had they been applied to the study of the so-called Westhallstattkreis. Both the ‘contact zone’ as well as the Westhallstattkreis have generally been understood as geographically definable spaces: the first one as a space where cultural encounter unfolded its transformative potential; the second one as a space where particular types of objects and features were found. Based on the understanding of spaces of encounter by Marie Louise Pratt and Richard White, the ‘contact zone’ will be redefined for the study of the Westhallstattkreis. We suggest dissolving the ‘contact zones’ from geographically defined spaces and seeing them — as well as the Westhallstattkreis — as performative spaces.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTTuberculosis remains one of diseases with highest mortality among other. Indonesia had categorized in one of high burden countries since 2013. WHO estimated the annual global burden of childhood tuberculosis in 2012 was approximately530.000 cases and that up to 74.000 children died that year. The last three years tuberculosis incidence in Jember increased. In 2014, 6,5% of total tuberculosis incidence was childhood tuberculosis. Childhood tuberculosis is a major component in controlling tuberculosis. The objective of this study is to analyze determining factors of childhood tuberculosis incidence in Jember. This study is an analytical observational study using case-control design. The object of this study is children aged 0–14 years who diagnosed with tuberculosis in Jember Paru Hospital. Sampling taken by simple random sampling method. Sampel consisting 24 cases and 48 control. The independent variables is child nutritional status, contact history, long-term contact, and proximity contact. Analysis using Logistic Regression test to determine the influence between two variables. The results show that childhood tuberculosis incidence determined by contact history (p = 0,000; OR = 26,6), long-term contact (p = 0,000; OR = 69), and proximity contact (p = 0,000; OR = 27,1). The conclusion is, contact history, long-term contact, proximity contact determine childhood tuberculosis in Jember. Stakeholder have to do active case finding to break the chain of tuberculosis transmission with early household contact detection.Keywords: nutritional status, childhood tuberculosis, contact history, long-term contact, and proximity contact

Abstract:
In Delay tolerant network having intermittent connectivity so there is no guarantee of finding a complete communication path that connecting the source and destination. There no any end to end connectivity for delay-tolerant network selection of routing protocol is important to deliver the message in an efficient way and increases chance to deliver a message to the destination. Some existing routing protocols improve the delivery ratio but it also increases the overhead. Our paper proposed Contact History Based Routing (CHBR) that use Neighborhood Index and Time varying properties such as temporal distance, Temporal Diameter and centrality for benchmarking the existing routing protocol. First, temporal metrics are evaluated for synthetic and real trace data. Then CHBR protocol is compared with the Epidemic and PROPHET for delivery ratio, overhead and the number of messages dropped. This has been carried using Opportunistic Network Environment simulator under real and synthetic datasets.

Abstract:
We consider a class of quasi-variational inequalities arising in a large number of mathematical models, which describe quasi-static processes of contact between a deformable body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The novelty lies in the special structure of these inequalities that involve a history-dependent term as well as in the fact that the inequalities are formulated on the unbounded interval of time [0, +∞). We prove an existence and uniqueness result of the solution, then we complete it with a regularity result. The proofs are based on arguments of monotonicity and convexity, combined with a fixed point result obtained in [22]. We also describe a number of quasi-static frictional contact problems in which we model the material's behaviour with an elastic or viscoelastic constitutive law. The contact is modelled with normal compliance, with normal damped response or with the Signorini condition, as well, associated to versions of Coulomb's law of dry friction or to the frictionless condition. We prove that all these models cast in the abstract setting of history-dependent quasi-variational inequalities, with a convenient choice of spaces and operators. Then, we apply the abstract results in order to prove the unique weak solvability of each contact problem.
