Abstract:
Abstract This article is a response by the author to the contributions to the Historical Materialism symposium on Allegory and Ideology. The reply is framed in terms of the different theoretical strategies through which the articulation of ‘Marx’ and ‘Freud’ has been carried out, namely the precarious syntheses of Freudo-Marxism, the homological method pioneered by Lucien Goldmann, and the theory of allegorical levels and transcoding explored in Allegory and Ideology. It critically engages with the openings and challenges posed by the various contributions to the symposium, focusing in particular on matters of periodisation, and concluding with a reflection on how a theory of allegorical levels can be complemented by a materialist understanding of the ‘category’.

Abstract:
Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Friedrich Engels (1820-1895) created the philosophical conception of historical and dialectical materialism with a deep and critical theoretical and methodological perspective to understand the dynamics of reality. In this sense, the objective of this research is to understand the great transmutations of the historical processes of humanity. It is a bibliographical and documentary research. An electronic survey of articles, dissertations and theses was conducted in the SCIELO database and in the CAPES journal portal. Historical and dialectical materialism, from the methodological and educational point of view, seeks to understand the social production of the real and existence of humanity. At the same time, this method relates to various forms and modes of movement. In conclusion, it is believed that the method of historical and dialectical materialism is a kind of methodological skeleton more suitable for discussions about work and the metamorphoses of social phenomena, as well as for the conceptions of world and reality. The understanding of the real is not restricted to everything that is immediately given, observed, thought, perceived or felt.

Abstract:
This paper examines how the concept of dialectical materialism has evolved in the history of philosophy and its distinct features based on the work of Marx and Engels. Dialectical materialism, as a fundamental philosophical outlook of Marxism, is one of the greatest contributions of Marx and Engels in the history of philosophical discourse. The importance of dialectical materialism is far beyond imagination in analyzing the nature of things and human social development in a manner that conceiving social development against a linier and disconnected mode of cognition and things. As being foundational to Marxian thought, dialectical materialism deal in wide range of subjects, such as understanding of the nature of things and change, the nature of man and also the nature of social development. The aim of this paper is, therefore, to critically analyze the concepts of dialectical materialism in terms of its origin, evolution, and how it was understood by Marx and Engels in connection with its divergence from both mechanical materialism and metaphysical conception of the nature of things.

Abstract:
The ongoing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had a profound impact on people’s wellbeing. Here, we proposed that an individual characteristic might be associated with wellbeing; that is, materialism. Specifically, we conducted three studies (total N = 3219) to examine whether people with high levels of materialism would experience poorer wellbeing (i.e., anxiety and depression, in the current case). The results showed that materialism was positively associated with depression (Studies 1A, 1B and 2) and anxiety (Study 2). Moreover, such a relationship was mediated by people’s perceived threat of COVID-19 (Study 2). These findings were observed in both Chinese and American people. The findings are discussed in terms of their theoretical and practical contributions.

Abstract:
This article constitutes a substantial introduction to the thematic issue “Matters.” After introducing briefly the scattered constellation described by some as “new materialism” or “the material turn,” as well as its main concepts and methods, I offer a deconstructive reflection on “the turn” by challenging a series of theoretical gestures meant to coalesce the turn to materiality in contemporary continental philosophy—starting with the exclusion of the much maligned “linguistic turn” and the opposition to an “old” concept of matter presented as passive, inert, and mechanistic. I analyze how these two exclusions—precarious as they may be—allow for a relative coalescence of the new “scene” while betraying its essential heterogeneity and self-inadequacy. I thus interrogate the conditions that make the position of a “new” materialism possible, giving it force and necessity, while questioning what the production of this so-called novelty potentially obfuscates. After raising a series of questions related to new materialism’s conceptuality, I introduce the contributions that make up the thematic issue. I also provide a substantial bibliography to help the reader navigate the material turn as well as its various critiques from the perspectives of philosophical history, object-oriented ontology, social and ethico-political theory, deconstruction, critical race studies, or other perspectives on materialist theory.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Science and Engineering, 2007.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 40-41).
This thesis analyzes a sample of 15 fuel-handling events from the past ten years at commercial nuclear reactors with significant human error contributions in order to detail the contribution of human error to fuel-handling activities, emphasizing how latent conditions can directly contribute to events. In particular, procedural inaccuracies often create conditions that lead to the development of errors related to maintenance work practices. This would be of significant concern for a pre-closure safety assessment for a geologic repository for spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste, where many fuel-handling work activities would be performed. Specific emphasis is placed on fuel movement activities and control of ventilation systems, which could significantly impact worker and public health and safety in the case of a fuel-handling accident.

Abstract:
Los materiales absorbentes porosos son de gran interés en el campo de la acústica debido a su amplia aplicabilidad a muchos problemas de ingeniería de control de ruido. Algunos de estos problemas son la contaminación acústica excesiva en las infraestructuras de transporte (carreteras, vías de tren,…) o la falta de sistemas efectivos de reducción de ruido en los edificios (residenciales, oficinas,…). Ambos se han convertido en un problema de gran preocupación en la sociedad moderna no solo por los efectos nocivos sobre la salud humana sino también por el impacto negativo en el medio ambiente y su conservación. De hecho, el ajetreado ritmo de vida en nuestra sociedad actual ha hecho del ruido una de las principales fuentes de estrés y convertido éste en el principal enemigo del descanso, induciendo a su vez una mayor despreocupación hacia el cuidado y preservación de dicho medio ambiente. Con el fin de concienciar a nuestra sociedad y a los agentes que la conforman hacia un mejor uso de los recursos naturales, autoridades públicas nacionales e internacionales siguen trabajando en el desarrollo de normativas que ayuden a reducir este impacto negativo en el entorno. De hecho, la creciente necesidad de dispositivos que mejoren el aislamiento acústico ha motivado que comunidad científica e industria centren parte de sus esfuerzos en el desarrollo de nuevas e innovadores soluciones que reduzcan el ruido y ayuden a mejorar el bienestar de las personas. Así, se persigue que dichas soluciones garanticen una reducción de los niveles de ruido en los distintos ámbitos sociales siendo a su vez una condición de mayor peso que estas tengan un carácter sostenible y respetuoso con el medio. Algunos ejemplos de ello son los equipos de protección auditiva contra el ruido de maquinaria en áreas industriales, la reducción del ruido del tráfico en áreas urbanas e interurbanas utilizando barreras acústicas, o el aislamiento al ruido en edificios mediante soluciones constructivas mejoradas. En este contexto, el uso de materiales absorbentes porosos se ha convertido en una de las soluciones pasivas más extendidas para el control del ruido hasta la fecha. Por lo tanto, el estudio del comportamiento acústico de estos materiales porosos no solo constituye una prioridad en la etapa de diseño de dispositivos contra el ruido, sino también en la evaluación de su rendimiento como absorbente sonoro. En resumen, los casos de estudio analizados sirven tanto como una contribución al estudio de las propiedades acústicas de materiales absorbentes porosos, como para alentar el uso de algunos de los enfoques propuestos en problemas reales de ingeniería. Aunque aún queda trabajo por hacer para establecer los modelos y metodologías presentados, y por qué no, para hacerlos extensivos para su aplicabilidad en un marco multidisciplinario, queda patente su aportación en aras del bienestar social y el desarrollo humano.

Abstract:
Les microscopes champ proche micro-ondes sont des instruments émergents pour la caractérisation de matériaux. Dans ce travail, un microscope champ proche micro-ondes fait maison est d'abord décrit et analysé en termes de résolution et de largeur de bande de fréquences de fonctionnement. Ensuite, il est mis en œuvre pour la caractérisation d'une grande variété de matériaux tels que par exemple des métaux, des semi-conducteurs, des diélectriques, des liquides et des nanomatériaux 2D. Le système intégre un interférométre pour améliorer la sensibilité de la mesure pour des fréquences de fonctionnement couvrant la bande 2-18 GHz. La sensibilité et les différents modes de fonctionnement disponibles (contact, sans contact, environnement liquide) permettent d'adresser une grande variété de domaines d'applications. La résolution latérale obtenue par cet instrument est plus petite de plusieurs ordres de grandeur que la longueur d'onde de fonctionnement, ouvrant ainsi la voie à une caractérisation locale. Les propriétés électromagnétiques des matériaux ont été extraites en utilisant la méthode de perturbation et celle de la ligne de transmission. En particulier, les propriétés diélectriques de solutions salines aqueuses et l’impédance complexe du graphène ont été étudiées dans une large bande de fréquence. Ce microscope champ proche micro-ondes basé sur une méthode interférométrique qui permet une analyse quantitative des propriétés des matériaux de manière non-destructive peut adresser un grand éventail d’applications dans de nombreux domaines scientifiques. Enfin, l’ensemble des résultats montre que potentiellement la microscopie champ proche micro-ondes dispose des atouts pour devenir un outil de métrologie important pour la caractérisation en micro- et nano-électronique
Near-field microwave microscopes are emerging instruments for materials characterization. In this work, a home-made near-field microwave microscope is first described and analyzed in terms of resolution performance and frequency band of operation. Then, it is applied to the characterization of a large variety of materials such as metals, semiconductors, dielectrics, liquids and 2D nanomaterials. The system is based on an interferometric technique to improve the measurement sensitivity in the entire frequency range of operation spanning from 2 to 18 GHz. The sensitivity and the different operating modes available (contact, non-contact, liquid environment) allow addressing a large variety of application fields. The instrument allows a sub-wavelength lateral resolution which is more than two orders of magnitude smaller than the operating wavelength, opening the way to a local characterization. The cavity perturbation and transmission line approaches have been used to extract the electromagnetic properties of materials. In particular dielectric properties of saline aqueous solutions and complex impedance of graphene have been investigated in a broad frequency band. It provides a quantitative analysis of material properties in a non-destructive manner to address numerous applications in many scientific fields. Finally, all the results together show that the interferometer-based near-field microwave microscope has the potential to become an important metrology tool for characterizations in micro- and nano-electronics

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse a pour but de montrer comment des caractérisations nanomécaniques en AFM peuvent apporter une meilleure compréhension des relations structure-propriétés dans les polymères. Dans ce contexte, la technique elle-même et sa base théorique sont d'abord analysées pour mettre en œuvre une méthodologie robuste afin d'effectuer des mesures reproductibles. Deux études principales sont menées sur un thème commun : la compréhension des interactions entre les biopolymères et les liquides ioniques (ILs). Tout d'abord, la compatibilisation des mélanges PBAT/PLA par deux ILs différents (à savoir il-Cl et il-TMP) est étudiée. Les images AFM d'adhésion et de module local mettent en évidence les différentes microstructures, et soulignent que la compatibilisation résulte principalement d'une modification de l'interface PBAT/PLA, devenant une interphase cohésive. Ceci est dû à une interaction spécifique avec les cations et les anions de chaque liquide ionique, qui se situent préférentiellement au niveau de ces interphases. La deuxième étude porte plus précisément sur la modification du PBAT semi-cristallin par de petites quantités des mêmes liquides ioniques. Alors que il-TMP forme des nodules dissipatifs dispersés dans la matrice et une interphase cohésive avec celle-ci, il-Cl, miscible dans la phase amorphe du PBAT, augmente la mobilité de la chaîne dans la MAF (i.e. fraction amorphe mobile) et l'entrave dans la RAF confinée (i.e. fraction amorphe rigide), conduisant à des modifications intéressantes des propriétés macroscopiques. En plus de montrer certaines capacités intéressantes des ILs comme additifs dans les polymères, ces résultats dévoilent également un potentiel exceptionnel des caractérisations nanomécaniques en AFM pour la compréhension en profondeur des relations structure-propriétés dans les matériaux
This thesis work aims to show how nanomechanical characterizations in AFM can provide a better understanding of structure-properties relationships in polymers. In this context, the technique itself and the associated theoretical basis are first analyzed to implement a robust methodology in order to perform reproducible, quantitative measurements. Two main studies are carried out around a common topic: the understanding of the interactions between biopolymers and ionic liquids (ILs). First, the compatibilization of PBAT/PLA blends by two different ILs (namely il-Cl and il-TMP) is studied. Adhesion and local modulus mappings evidence the resulting microstructures, and highlight that the compatibilization mainly results from a modification of the PBAT/PLA interface, becoming a coherent interphase. This is due to specific interaction with the cations and the anions of each IL, which are preferentially located at those interphases. The second study is more specifically about the understanding of the modification of semicrystalline PBAT by the addition of small amounts of the same ionic liquids. While il-TMP forms dissipative nodules dispersed into the matrix with a cohesive interphase between both, il-Cl, miscible into the amorphous phase of PBAT, amplifies the chain mobility in the bulky MAF (i.e. Mobile Amorphous Fraction) and hinders it in the confined RAF (i.e. Rigid Amorphous Fraction), leading to interesting macroscopical properties modifications. More than showing some interesting capabilities of ILs as additives in polymers, those results also show an outstanding potential of AFM nanomechanical mappings for the in-deep understanding of structure-properties relationships in materials

Abstract:
This text proposes to overcome the wide-spread error of dismissing Marx’s critique of all materialism before him as being reductionist and therefore philosophically and scientifically unacceptable. Instead, it attempts to create a non-reductionist understanding and practice of materialism in philosophy — especially by referring to key contributions by Althusser and Bhaskar and by criticizing the ‘materialist illusion’ of the early Marx — thereby articulating another key element of the ‘finite Marxism’ defended by the author.

Abstract:
AbstractIn general, historians of science and historians of ideas do not focus on critical appraisals of scientific ideas such as vitalism and materialism from Catholic intellectuals in eastern and southeastern Europe, nor is there much comparative work available on how significant European ideas in the life sciences such as materialism and vitalism were understood and received outside of France, Germany, Italy and the UK. Insofar as such treatments are available, they focus on the contributions of nineteenth century vitalism and materialism to later twentieth ideologies, as well as trace the interactions of vitalism and various intersections with the development of genetics and evolutionary biology see Mosse (The culture of Western Europe: the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Westview Press, Boulder, 1988, Toward the final solution: a history of European racism. Howard Fertig Publisher, New York, 1978; Turda et al., Crafting humans: from genesis to eugenics and beyond. V&R Unipress, Goettingen, 2013). English and American eugenicists (such as William Caleb Saleeby), and scores of others underscored the importance of vitalism to the future science of “eugenics” (Saleeby, The progress of eugenics. Cassell, New York, 1914). Little has been written on materialism qua materialism or vitalism qua vitalism in eastern Europe.The Czech and Slovene cases are interesting for comparison insofar as both had national awakenings in the middle of the nineteenth century which were linguistic and scientific, while also being religious in nature (on the Czech case see David, Realism, tolerance, and liberalism in the Czech National awakening: legacies of the Bohemian reformation. Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore, 2010; on the Slovene case see Kann and David, Peoples of the Eastern Habsburg Lands, 1526-1918. University of Washington Press, Washington, 2010). In the case of many Catholic writers writing in Moravia, there are not only slight noticeable differences in word-choice and construction but a greater influence of scholastic Latin, all the more so in the works of nineteenth century Czech priests and bishops.In this case, German, Latin and literary Czech coexisted in the same texts. Thus, the presence of these three languages throws caution on the work on the work of Michael Gordin, who argues that scientific language went from Latin to German to vernacular. In Czech, Slovenian and Croatian cases, all three coexisted quite happily until the First World War, with the decades from the 1840s to the 1880s being particularly suited to linguistic flexibility, where oftentimes writers would put in parentheses a Latin or German word to make the meaning clear to the audience. Note however that these multiple paraphrases were often polemical in the case of discussions of materialism and vitalism.In Slovenia Čas (Time or The Times) ran from 1907 to 1942, running under the muscular editorship of Fr. Aleš Ušeničnik (1868–1952) devoted hundreds of pages often penned by Ušeničnik himself or his close collaborators to wide-ranging discussions of vitalism, materialism and its implied social and societal consequences. Like their Czech counterparts Fr. Matěj Procházka (1811–1889) and Fr. Antonín LenzMaterialismMechanismDynamism (1829–1901), materialism was often conjoined with "pantheism" and immorality. In both the Czech and the Slovene cases, materialism was viewed as a deep theological problem, as it made the Catholic account of the transformation of the Eucharistic sacrifice into the real presence untenable. In the Czech case, materialism was often conjoined with “bestiality” (bestialnost) and radical politics, especially agrarianism, while in the case of Ušeničnik and Slovene writers, materialism was conjoined with “parliamentarianism” and “democracy.” There is too an unexamined dialogue on vitalism, materialism and pan-Slavism which needs to be explored.Writing in 1914 in a review of O bistvu življenja (Concerning the essence of life) by the controversial Croatian biologist Boris Zarnik) Ušeničnik underscored that vitalism was an speculative outlook because it left the field of positive science and entered the speculative realm of philosophy. Ušeničnik writes that it was “Too bad” that Zarnik “tackles” the question of vitalism, as his zoological opinions are interesting but his philosophy was not “successful”. Ušeničnik concluded that vitalism was a rather old idea, which belonged more to the realm of philosophy and Thomistic theology then biology. It nonetheless seemed to provide a solution for the particular characteristics of life, especially its individuality. It was certainly preferable to all the dangers that materialism presented. Likewise in the Czech case, Emmanuel Radl (1873–1942) spent much of his life extolling the virtues of vitalism, up until his death in home confinement during the Nazi Protectorate. Vitalism too became bound up in the late nineteenth century rediscovery of early modern philosophy, which became an essential part of the development of new scientific consciousness and linguistic awareness right before the First World War in the Czech lands. Thus, by comparing the reception of these ideas together in two countries separated by ‘nationality’ but bounded by religion and active engagement with French and German ideas (especially Driesch), we can reconstruct not only receptions of vitalism and materialism, but articulate their political and theological valances.

Capes, David B. "TOLERANCE IN THE THEOLOGY AND THOUGHT OF A. J. CONYERS AND FETHULLAH GÜLEN (EXTENDED ABSTRACT)." In Muslim World in Transition: Contributions of the Gülen Movement. Leeds Metropolitan University Press, 2007. http://dx.doi.org/10.55207/fbvr3629.

Full text
Abstract:
In his book The Long Truce (Spence Publishing, 2001) the late A. J. Conyers argues that tolerance, as practiced in western democracies, is not a public virtue; it is a political strat- egy employed to establish power and guarantee profits. Tolerance, of course, seemed to be a reasonable response to the religious wars of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but tolerance based upon indifference to all values except political power and materialism relegated ultimate questions of meaning to private life. Conyers offers another model for tolerance based upon values and resources already resident in pre-Reformation Christianity. In this paper, we consider Conyer’s case against the modern, secular form of tolerance and its current practice. We examine his attempt to reclaim the practice of Christian tolerance based upon humility, hospitality and the “powerful fact” of the incarnation. Furthermore, we bring the late Conyers into dialog with Fethullah Gülen, a Muslim scholar, prolific writer and the source of inspiration for a transnational civil society movement. We explore how both Conyers and Gülen interpret their scriptures in order to fashion a theology and politi- cal ideology conducive to peaceful co-existence. Finally, because Gülen’s identity has been formed within the Sufi tradition, we reflect on the spiritual resources within Sufi spirituality that make dialog and toleration key values for him. Conyers locates various values, practices and convictions in the Christian message that pave the way for authentic toleration. These include humility, trust, reconciliation, the interrelat- edness of all things, the paradox of power--that is, that strength is found in weakness and greatness in service—hope, the inherent goodness of creation, and interfaith dialog. Conyers refers to this latter practice as developing “the listening heart” and “the open soul.” In his writings and oral addresses, Gülen prefers the term hoshgoru (literally, “good view”) to “tolerance.” Conceptually, the former term indicates actions of the heart and the mind that include empathy, inquisitiveness, reflection, consideration of the dialog partner’s context, and respect for their positions. The term “tolerance” does not capture the notion of hoshgoru. Elsewhere, Gülen finds even the concept of hoshgoru insufficient, and employs terms with more depth in interfaith relations, such as respect and an appreciation of the positions of your dialog partner. The resources Gülen references in the context of dialog and empathic acceptance include the Qur’an, the prophetic tradition, especially lives of the companions of the Prophet, the works of great Muslim scholars and Sufi masters, and finally, the history of Islamic civilization. Among his Qur’anic references, Gülen alludes to verses that tell the believers to represent hu- mility, peace and security, trustworthiness, compassion and forgiveness (The Qur’an, 25:63, 25:72, 28:55, 45:14, 17:84), to avoid armed conflicts and prefer peace (4:128), to maintain cordial relationships with the “people of the book,” and to avoid argumentation (29:46). But perhaps the most important references of Gülen with respect to interfaith relations are his readings of those verses that allow Muslims to fight others. Gülen positions these verses in historical context to point out one by one that their applicability is conditioned upon active hostility. In other words, in Gülen’s view, nowhere in the Qur’an does God allow fighting based on differences of faith. An important factor for Gülen’s embracing views of empathic acceptance and respect is his view of the inherent value of the human. Gülen’s message is essentially that every human person exists as a piece of art created by the Compassionate God, reflecting aspects of His compassion. He highlights love as the raison d’etre of the universe. “Love is the very reason of existence, and the most important bond among beings,” Gülen comments. A failure to approach fellow humans with love, therefore, implies a deficiency in our love of God and of those who are beloved to God. The lack of love for fellow human beings implies a lack of respect for this monumental work of art by God. Ultimately, to remain indifferent to the conditions and suffering of fellow human beings implies indifference to God himself. While advocating love of human beings as a pillar of human relations, Gülen maintains a balance. He distinguishes between the love of fellow human beings and our attitude toward some of their qualities or actions. Our love for a human being who inflicts suffering upon others does not mean that we remain silent toward his violent actions. On the contrary, our very love for that human being as a human being, as well as our love of those who suffer, necessitate that we participate actively in the elimination of suffering. In the end we argue that strong resonances are found in the notion of authentic toleration based on humility advocated by Conyers and the notion of hoshgoru in the writings of Gülen.

GAID, Salima. "THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF PHYSICS TO THE RISE AND DEVELOPMENT OF PHILOSOPHY AT THE OPENING OF THE MODERN ERA." In 2. IJHER-International Congress of Humanities and Educational Research. Rimar Academy, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.47832/ijhercongress2-4.

Full text
Abstract:
Modern Western philosophy is the third stage in the history of philosophy, and it begins at the beginning of the seventeenth century with Descartes. The reason why historians of philosophy have classified this philosophy in a third stage is that it represented a new type of philosophizing completely different from the philosophical pattern that prevailed in the middle Ages. The truth is that the rise of this new style of philosophizing did not come out of nothing, but it rather emerged from a set of objective reasons, including the religious reform and scientific advance or renaissance, that various sciences have witnessed; mainly physics in the forefront. Physics has known amazing developments thanks to great scientists; the most famous of them is Galileo, who is credited with establishing modern physics. The rise of modern physics led directly to the emergence of modern philosophy, and the developments that physics will know after the Renaissance will also be directly reflected in the development of philosophy. This point in particular is what we would like to study in this research paper, we will seek to demonstrate the close relations between philosophy and physics at the beginning of the modern era, to show through them the contributions of physics to the rise of modern philosophy, and its aftermath developments. These contributions appear in the fact that physics determines the subject of philosophy, its method in particular, and its identification of the various issues that it will raise, as well as the various theories and doctrines that it will construct to answer them. Key words: Mechanics, Materialism, Mechanism, Atomism, Expérimental Method, Empiricism.

Full text
Abstract:
Slip and fall accidents cost billions of dollars each year. Shoe-floor-lubricant friction has been shown to follow the Stribeck effect, operating primarily in the boundary and mixed-lubrication regimes. Two of the most important factors believed to significantly contribute to shoe-floor-lubricant friction in the boundary lubrication regime are adhesion and ploughing. Experiments were conducted using a pin-on-disk tribometer to quantify adhesion and ploughing contributions to shoe-floor friction in dry and lubricated conditions. The coefficient of friction between three shoe materials and two floor materials of different hardness and roughness were considered. Experiments were conducted under six lubricants for a sliding speed of 0.01 m/sec at ambient conditions. It was found that the contribution of adhesion and ploughing to shoe-floor-lubricant friction was significantly affected by material hardness, roughness, and lubricant properties. Material hardness and roughness are known to affect adhesion, with increased hardness or increased roughness typically resulting in decreased adhesion. The smoothest shoe material, while also being the hardest, resulted in the greatest adhesional contribution to friction. The roughest material, while also being the softest, resulted in the lowest adhesional contributions under dry conditions. Canola oil consistently resulted in the lowest percent of full adhesion and water consistently resulted in the highest percent of full adhesion, presumably due to the thickness, of the boundary lubrication layer. Ploughing contribution was dependent upon the hardness of the shoe and floor materials. A positive correlation was found between the shoe and floor hardness ratio and ploughing coefficient of friction.

Abstract:
The ‘Promoting Sustainable Building in Bangladesh’ (PSBiB) project was implemented together with 3 partner organizations between 2016 and 2019. It aimed to reduce the negative impacts of the construction and house building industry in Bangladesh on the environment, livelihoods and communities, by enabling a transition from unsustainable Traditional Bricks (TB) to sustainable Alternative Building Blocks (AB). This Effectiveness Review examines the effectiveness and relevance of the PSBiB project, with a focus on policy changes and contributions to strengthening the country’s resilience. It adopted the Participatory Impact Assessment and Learning Approach (PIALA) as well as Contribution Tracing. The results provide evidence that the project’s strategies and interventions were significant and relevant in achieving the necessary changes in policies and legislation for promoting sustainable building materials and halting the extraction of topsoil from fertile land and protected areas. The evaluation also investigates the project’s contributions to triggering the market and to the capacities of resilience. Find out more by reading the full report now.

Full text
Abstract:
The most commonly used fracture analyses procedure for the prediction of minimum arrest toughness and fracture speed for axially running cracks in line pipe materials for natural gas transmission pipeline applications is the Battelle Two-Curve approach. This analysis procedure incorporates the gas-decompression behavior with the fracture toughness of the pipe material to predict the minimum Charpy energy required for crack arrest. For this model, the effect of backfill on the propagating crack fracture speeds is lumped into one empirically based �backfill coefficient,� which does not distinguish different soil types or strengths. This report provides a better understanding of soil behavior and its affect on the fracture speed of running axial flaws in buried line pipe materials. The results from this program are combined with other full-scale experimental data in developing a modification to the treatment of backfill in the Battelle Two-Curve approach for calculating minimum arrest toughness. This first major improvement to the Battelle Two-Curve approach is incorporated into a computer code called PIPE-DFRAC.

Full text
Abstract:
A Grant Agreement between the Government of Australia and the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), the Stop Transboundary Animal Diseases and Zoonoses (STANDZ), initiative includes a rabies component with an overarching intended outcome of reducing dog rabies incidence in targeted areas. This initiative envisaged regional rabies activities in South-East Asia as well as specifically designed pilot projects in the Philippines, Myanmar and Cambodia. While remaining anchored to the envisioned outcome, its implementation from 2013 to 2016 also leveraged on the resources made available through the initiative to strategically generate tools, materials and examples that can potentially bridge long-standing gaps on dog rabies elimination in the region. This included developing approaches on rabies communication strategy, risk-based approach for the prioritization of mass dog vaccination, rabies case investigation, post-vaccination monitoring, building capacity through pilot vaccination projects, One Health operationalization at the grass-root level, and reinforcing high-level political support through regional and national rabies strategy development. These are briefly described in this paper and are also further detailed in a series of publications which individually document these approaches for future utility of the countries in the region, or wherever these may be deemed fitting. The STANDZ rabies initiative leaves behind a legacy of materials and mechanisms that can potentially contribute in strategically addressing rabies in the region and in achieving the global vision of eliminating dog-mediated human rabies by 2030.

Full text
Abstract:
Based on the investigation of the recent pipe failures, it was clear that HAZ softening was one of the contributing factors. To understand the factors that influence the susceptibility to HAZ softening, a simple weld bead-on-plate testing procedure achieving a full penetration weld was developed in in this project. Test conditions are designed to maximize the effect in an effort to identify line pipe materials that may be more or less resistant to HAZ softening in construction or in-service welding. This work provides industry with a standardized test to rank the relative susceptibility of pipe materials to HAZ softening and may be used as an acceptance test, a means of characterizing line pipe materials or identifying materials requiring greater attention to detail in weld procedure development or application to preclude significant HAZ softening.

Within this context, building resiliency should become a priority for the Caribbean countries. The series “Building a more resilient and low-carbon Caribbean”, focuses on improving the resiliency, sustainability and decarbonization of the construction industry in the Caribbean. The results show that increasing building resiliency is economically viable for the high-risk islands of the Caribbean, generating long term savings and increasing the infrastructure preparedness to the impacts of CC. Report 1 - Climate Resiliency and Building Materials in the Caribbean, presents a quantification of the economic losses caused by climate impact events in the Caribbean Region and correlate these figures with the most common construction materials, typically used in each of the countries building typologies. The losses caused by hurricanes concentrate mostly in the residential infrastructure and are mainly caused by weaknesses in roofs and their connection to the walls. The analysis suggests that improving the resiliency of outer walls and roofs in the Caribbean could significantly reduce the regions vulnerability to hurricanes and other climate impacts.
