Research the Integration of Geodetic and Geotechnical Methods in Monitoring the Horizontal Displacement of Diaphragm Walls

This article investigates the integration of geodetic and geotechnical methods for monitoringthe horizontal displacement of diaphragm walls. The results show that when the horizontal displacementis measured by the geotechnical method using an inclinometer sensor, the center point at the bottom ofthe guide pipe is usually chosen to be the origin to calculate displacements of the upper points. However,it is challenging to survey the bottom point for checking its stability directly. If this bottom point moves,the observation results will be incorrect. Thus, the guide pipe must be installed in the stable rock layer.But in the soft ground, this rock layer locates more deeply than the diaphragm walls, so the guide pipecannot be laid out at the required location. Geodetic methods can directly observe the displacement of thecenter point on the top of the guide pipe with absolute displacement values at high accuracy. Because thedisplacements of observation points are determined at stable benchmarks, these values are considered thepipe's displacement. Thus, an integrated solution allows the center point on the top of the pipe to be theorigin to calculate the displacements of different points located inside the diaphragm wall. Then, thecalculated values are calibrated back to the inclinometer observed values to achieve highly reliabledisplacement, which reflects the moving of diaphragm walls. An experiment integrating the geodetic andgeotechnical methods is conducted with an observation point at a depth of 20 meters at a construction sitein Ho Chi Minh city. The deviations of the top point that are observed by the two methods are -4.37millimeters and -3.69 millimeters on the X-axis and the Y-axis, respectively. The corrected observedresults prove that the integrated solution has a good efficiency in monitoring the horizontal displacementof diaphragm walls. The bottom point observed by an inclinometer is unconfident enough to choose to bea reference point.

Dairy productivity of Kazakh horse mares

The work aimed to establish the influence of udder parameters of Kazakh mares on their formation of dairy productivity and the growth rate of foals during the milk period. The cup-shaped udder is characterized by a large base (the udder circumference at the base is 70.3 cm), the symmetrical arrangement of both udder lobes, with well-developed cylindrical nipples, the nipples are widely spaced between the two lobes. The round shaped udder is instead characterized by conical and short nipples and a smaller udder volume. For four months of lactation, 1051 liters of commercial milk were produced from mares with cup-shaped udder, while 823.6 liters- with round-shaped udder.The observation results showed that foals from mares with the cup-shaped and round - shapedudders on the first day of life were 39.8 and 39.6 kg of live weight, respectively, then after a month, it doubles, reaching 82.5 and 79.5 kg. The highest indicators of absolute gain - 42.7 kg, average daily gain - 1.42 kg, and relative gain -107.3% were observed in offspring with a cup-shaped udder. In foals delivered from mares with a round-shaped udder, the gain rates (39.9; 1.33 kg and 100.7%, respectively) were slightly lower.

Development of Problem Based Learning (Pbl)-Based E-Module to Improve Critical Thinking Skills of Students In Biology Learning Class X Sman 1 Seberida Indragiri Hulu Regency

Critical thinking should be given to students as they age in the 21st century. The continued impact of perception shows that there are still many students who do not have the option to overcome their thinking, speaking, and logic skills. Observation results show that many students have not been able to utilize their intellectual ability to think critically. Furthermore, the evaluation questions that have been given by the teacher are not analyticalin nature, resulting in not triggering students to think critically. Problem Based Learning (PBL) is a model of learning that is suitable for stimulatingstudents' critical thinking. The purpose of this research that produces the E-module -based PBL valid, p practical and i effective. Type researchis development research. The Plomp model is the applied model.

Advantages and Challenges of Cooperative Learning in Two Different Cultures

Cooperative learning (CL) is a teaching and learning pedagogy that has been used widely in school but there is limited information on instructors’ perceptions of CL nor observations of how CL is implemented in higher education settings. In this study, we investigated the ad-vantages and challenges of embedding CL into instructors’ teaching in Iran and Australia. Data were collected through interview and observation. Results showed that despite challenges such as the lack of familiarity of CL and how it can be implemented in university curricula, issues associated with assessment, and time constraints, CL created an interactive, pleasant and safe environment for deep learning in both countries. The findings showed that there were challenges in Iran such as a tendency to use traditional approaches to teaching, insufficient understanding of how to establish teamwork, and a lack of up-to-date teaching resources. In Australia, changing courses, working with external students, catering for individual differences, and building positive relationships were some of the challenges of implementing CL. We believe that these challenges can be overcome if university instructors are prepared to address them.

Nomogram for Predicting Occurrence of Synchronous Liver Metastasis in Colorectal Cancer: A Single-center Retrospective Study Based on Pathological Factors

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to explore the risk factors for liver metastasis (LM) of colorectal cancer (CRC) and to construct a nomogram for predicting the occurrence of synchronous LM based on baseline and pathological information.MethodsThe baseline and pathological information of 3190 CRC patients from the Department of Colorectal Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between 2012 and 2020 were included. All patients were divided into development and validation cohorts with the 1:1 ratio. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were utilized to identify the potential predictors of LM in CRC patients. Using the R tool to create a predictive nomogram. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was calculated to describe the discriminability of the nomogram. A calibration curve was plotted to compare the predicted and observed results of the nomogram. Decision-making curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical effect of nomogram.ResultsThe nomogram consisted of six features including tumor site, vascular invasion (VI), T stage, N stage, preoperative CEA and CA-199 level. ROC curves for the LM nomogram indicated good discrimination in the development cohort (AUC = 0.885, 95% CI 0.854-0.916) and the validation cohort (AUC = 0.857, 95% CI 0.821-0.893). The calibration curve showed that the prediction results of the nomogram was in good agreement with the actual observation results. Moreover, the DCA curves determined the clinical application value of predictive nomogram.ConclusionsThe pathologic-based nomogram could help clinicians to predict the occurrence of synchronous LM in postoperative CRC patients and provide a reference to perform appropriate metastatic screening plans and rational therapeutic options for the special population.

Virtual Bronchoscopy as the Guide for Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy in Evaluating Tracheobronchial Disorders in the Bronchogenic Carcinoma

Fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) is one of the important modalities in helping to uphold the diagnosis and stadium of bronchogenic carcinoma. However, FOB has some limitations, namely invasive, time-consuming, requiring sedation, intolerable in patients who are critically ill, and difficult to evaluate distal airway side of severe stenosis. To identify the imaging capability of virtual bronchoscopy (VB) examinations in evaluating abnormalities in the tracheobronchial in bronchogenic carcinoma. Observational study with total sampling. Data was obtained from the histopathologic with diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma in 1 year. Retrospectively, the data were obtained from the archives of thoracic CT examinations in Radiology and FOB examination in Lung Operating Room. The variables assessed were the finding of mass of endobronchial based on its location, the main bronchi constriction, lobar bronchi constriction, segmental bronchi constriction, and compression/tracheal deformity. The results of VB were examined by three radiologists independently and were then compared with the results of FOB. The observation results of VB and FOB were used to analyse the degree of conformity. There is a low level of agreement on the finding of endobronchial mass, lobar bronchi and segmental bronchi constriction, sufficient level of agreement on the main bronchial constriction finding. VB has a limited capacity to evaluate abnormalities of the tracheobronchial compared with FOB, but VB has an advantage in evaluating the patency of the distal airway of severe obstruction.
