Sensitivity analysis of blast loading parameters and their trends as uncertainty increases
No full textA sensitivity analysis of blast loading parameters is performed to determine which of the parameters' uncertainty has the greatest effect on
the maximum deflection of an aluminum plate subjected to a blast load. A numerical simulation using the Monte Carlo method is used to obtain the ensemble averages of the probabilistic runs. The random variables were given a uniform distribution. Two simplified loading models are used. The first has an instantaneous rise with an exponential decay, represented by the modified Friedlander equation. The second loading model has a linear rise with an exponential decay. Both of these models are simulated with three different blast scaled values, giving a total of six different cases.
In addition, the deflection trends due to the loading parameters as uncertainty increases is quantified. Probability density functions of the
maximum deflection are also presented. The probabilistic results and trends are also explained using deterministic methods. It appears that the duration time of the loading models is generally the most sensitive parameter to uncertainty.M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 103-105)
Wuli, elan and Inerti : the Karoninka approach to sustainability
No full text106 leaves : ill. ; 28 cm.Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 88-99).Using a counter and post development lens, the author discusses indigenous peoples' relationships with the natural world, with particular focus on ecological spirituality and environmental restrictions. The author suggests that, in recent literature on sustainable development, indigenous peoples generally have been categorized as 'Mother Earth' worshipping societies. Based on ethnographic field research conducted in Basse Cassamance, Senegal and The Gambia, the author proposes that non-accumulating , indigenous groups like the Karoninkas offer a fresh outlook on sustainability that transcends mainstream generalizations, and provides relevant insights into the indigenous 'problematique'. In Wuli, Elan & Inerti , the case of the Karoninkas illustrates that alternative approaches to sustainable development are found in cultures of non-accumulation
Studying based on Prophet's Hadith Perspective:
No full textThis discussion is intended to determine the degree of the Prophet's hadith. in Sunan Ibnu Majah No. 220. This hadith explains the virtues of scholars and the urge to study. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method. Researchers used data collection techniques based on information in literary sources in hadith books, books, journals, seminar results, and discussions with experts relevant to the research theme. The data obtained then the researcher analyzes through qualitative data analysis through the data interpretation process, and the researcher provides an adequate explanation. Based on the results of the discussion, the hadith of the Prophet. in Sunan Ibnu Majah No. 220 is a dhaif hadith because in the hadith there is' illat (defect), a break in sanad, and a defect in the hadith narrator. From several lines of supporting hadith, none of the hadiths can raise the hadith's degree because all of them are weak in nature. From several lines of supporting hadith, none of the hadiths can raise the hadith's degree because all of them are weak in nature. However, according to some scholars, hadith dha'if can be used as hujjah (practiced) only for the basis of the virtue of charity (Fadla'il amal). The implication of this paper is to clarify the law (quality) of the Prophet's hadith. in Sunan Ibnu Majah No. 220. Hadith that has been in Takhrij can be scientifically accounted for its quality, so that it is no longer hesitant to be used as a source of Islamic law after the Al-Qur'an

Early versus Late initiation of direct oral Anticoagulants in post-ischaemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillatioN (ELAN) : Protocol for an international, multicentre, randomised-controlled, two-arm, open, assessor-blinded trial
No full textRationale: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are highly effective in preventing ischaemic strokes in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is unclear how soon they should be started after acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). Early initiation may reduce early risk of recurrence but might increase the risk of haemorrhagic complications. Aim: To estimate the safety and efficacy of early initiation of DOACs compared to late guideline-based initiation in people with AIS related to AF. Methods and design: An international, multicentre, randomised (1:1) controlled, two-arm, open, assessor-blinded trial is being conducted. Early treatment is defined as DOAC initiation within 48 h of a minor or moderate stroke, or at day 6-7 following major stroke. Late treatment is defined as DOAC initiation after day 3-4 following minor stroke, after day 6-7 following moderate stroke and after day 12-14 following major stroke. Severity of stroke is defined according to imaging assessment of infarct size. Sample size: ELAN will randomise 2000 participants 1:1 to early versus late initiation of DOACs. This assumes a risk difference of 0.5% favouring the early arm, allowing an upper limit of the 95% confidence interval up to 1.5% based on the Miettinen & Nurminen formula. Outcomes: The primary outcome is a composite of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage, major extracranial bleeding, recurrent ischaemic stroke, systemic embolism or vascular death at 30 +/- 3 days after randomisation. Secondary outcomes include the individual components of the primary outcome at 30 +/- 3 and 90 +/- 7 days and functional status at 90 +/- 7 days. Discussion: ELAN will estimate whether there is a clinically important difference in safety and efficacy outcomes following early anticoagulation with a DOAC compared to late guideline-based treatment in neuroimaging-selected people with an AIS due to AF.Peer reviewe
