Abstrak. Penelitian rekonstruksi bentuk Candi di Sumatera perlu dilakukan dikarenakan Candi di Sumatera umumnya hanya tersisa bagian kaki,  sehingga penelitian mengenai langgam dan terkait budaya sulit dilakukan. Selain itu kajian pemaknaan bentuk dan perumusan langgam arsitektur candi perlu dilakukan kajian morfologi terlebih dahulu. Permasalahan yang dijumpai pada situs percandian di Sumatera adalah tidak semua candi di Sumatera memiliki bentuk yang utuh melainkan mayoritas hanya menyisakan bagian dasar candi dan paling lengkap hanya badan candi, hal ini apabila dibiarkan maka masalah ini akan tetap mengambang tanpa ada solusi ke depan. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut diperlukan kajian tafsiran bentuk candi secara utuh. Dari beberapa penelitian umumnya menggunakan metode komparasi dengan melihat bangunan-bangunan candi di Indonesia akan tetapi metode  urutan rekonstruksi bentuk tidak begitu rinci, di dalam  penelitian ini metode yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dan bersifat penelitian lapangan. Adapun analisis data yang dilakukan menggunakan analisis morfologi dan komparasi, data hasil pengukuran candi Padang Roco dirumuskan angka perbandingannya. Berdasarkan hasil rekonstruksi ditemukan bahwa bentuk  Candi Padang Roco memiliki gaya arsitektur yang berbeda dari candi di Indonesia pada umumnya mulai dari bentuk punden berundak seperti tipe candi di Indo-Cina. Bentuk candi ini juga serupa dengan keberadaan struktur kuno yang berbentuk punden berundak yang ditemukan di Lampung dan memiliki analogi dengan perabotan tradisional di Palembang juga serupa dengan punden berundak.Kata Kunci : Rekonstruksi, Bentuk, Proporsi, Candi ABSTRACT. Research on the reconstruction of temple form in Sumatera needs to be done because the temples in Sumatera generally only left with the base of the temple, so research on culture and culture-related is difficult. Besides that, the study of the meaning of the form and formulation of the temple architectural style needs to be carried out morphological study first. The problem encountered in the ensemble site in Sumatera is that not all of them have a complete form, but the majority only leaves the leg and most complete only the body parts of the temple. This problem will remain floating without any future solutions. Based on these problems, the researchers tried to begin by enlightening the study of how the interpretation of the temple form, which left the foot of the temple became the appearance of the temple as a whole. From several studies generally using the comparative method by looking at temple buildings in Indonesia but the purpose of explanation of the order of the reconstruction process is not very detailed, in this study the method used is qualitative and is field research. As for the data analysis carried out using morphological and comparative analysis, the data from the measurement of Padang Roco temple were compared. Based on the result of the reconstruction it was found that the shape of the Padang Roco temple had a different architectural style from the temples in Indonesia, in general, ranging from the form of Punden terraces such as the type of temple in Indo-China. The shape of the temple is also similar to the existence of ancient structure in the form of Punden terrace found in Lampung and have an analogy with traditional furniture in Palembang which is also identical to Punden form.Keywords : Reconstruction, Form, Proportion, Candi

В статье рассматриваются изобразительные (образные) глаголы, участвующие в вербализации концепта «БОГАТЫРЬ» в эпическом тексте олонхо. Цель исследования – установление особенностей функционирования изобразительных глаголов в смысловом наполнении концепта и выявление наличия преемственности этих особенностей в якутских эпических текстах раннего и позднего периодов при сравнительном анализе. Для достижения поставленной цели использовались следующие методы исследования: метод концептуального анализа, метод сплошной выборки, компонентный анализ, метод семантического определения, метод контекстуального анализа, сравнительный метод. Выборка глаголов была произведена из текстов ранних записей – «Богатырь Тойон Нюргун» Н. Ф. Попова, «Нюргун Боотур Стремительный» К. Г. Оросина, «Ала Булкун богатырь» Т. В. Захарова – Чээбий, «Строптивый Кулун Куллустуур» И. Г. Теплоухова-Тимофеева; из поздних текстов олонхо – «Джирибинэ Боотур» В. О. Каратаева, «Сын лошади Богатырь Дыырай» И. И. Бурнашева – Тонг Суорун, «Кыырджыт Могучий» В. Н. Попова – Бочоох. В анализе было задействовано 13 изобразительных глаголов из ранних текстов и 27 глаголов из поздних текстов олонхо. Как показывает исследование, зафиксированные изобразительные глаголы привлечены для описания внешнего вида богатыря, его действий и движений. Кроме этого, в поздних текстах наблюдается использование изобразительных глаголов в описании телодвижений богатыря. Сравнительный анализ подтверждает сохранение преемственности в поздних текстах. Об этом свидетельствует, например, функционирование аналогичных изобразительных глаголов в описании телосложения богатыря. Изобразительные глаголы, как специальные речевые средства, способствуют лучшему раскрытию и пониманию содержания концепта «БОГАТЫРЬ». У сказителей поздних записей олонхо наблюдается обогащённый словарный запас, следовательно, они для полноты и яркости образа богатыря чаще прибегают к использованию изобразительных глаголов. The article deals with image-forming verbs involved in the verbalization of the concept of “BOGATYR” in the text of olonkho. The purpose of the study was to establish the features of the functioning of image-forming verbs in the semantic content of the concept and to identify the continuity of these features in the Yakut epic texts of the early and late periods in comparative analysis. To achieve this goal, the following research methods were used: the method of conceptual analysis, the method of continuous sampling, the component analysis, the method of semantic definition, the method of contextual analysis, and the comparative method. The selection of verbs was made from the texts of early recordings – “Bogatyr Toyon Nyurgun” by N. F. Popov, “Nyurgun Bootur the Swift” by K. G. Orosin, “Ala Bulkun bogatyr” by T. V. Zakharov – Cheebiy, “Kulun Kullustuur the Obstinate” by I. G. Teploukhov-Timofeev; from later texts – “Dzhiribine Bootur” by V. O. Karataev, “Son of a Horse Bogatyr Dyyray” by I. I. Burnashev – Tong Suorun, “The Mighty Kyyrdzhyt” by V. N. Popov – Bochookh. The analysis involved 13 image-forming verbs from early texts and 27 verbs from later olonkho texts. As the study shows, the fixed image-forming verbs are involved in describing the appearance of the bogatyr, his actions and movements. In addition, in later texts there is the use of image-forming verbs in describing the movement of the body parts of the bogatyr. Comparative analysis confirms the preservation of continuity in later texts. This is evidenced, for example, by the functioning of similar image-forming verbs in the description of the physical abilities of the bogatyr. Image-forming verbs, as special speech means, help to better reveal and understand the content of the concept “BOGATYR”. The olonkho-tellers of the later olonkho have an enriched vocabulary; therefore, for completeness and brightness of the image of the bogatyr, they more often resort to the use of image-forming verbs.

Purpose. To formalize the dependence of the eigenfrequencies of translational and torsional vibrations of the structural elements of the vibrating machine articulated by the connection node on their design parameters and mechanical characteristics, as well as regulatory requirements for vibration activity, strength and accuracy. To develop a method for selecting the design parameters of the elastic band element of the package, taking into account the specified values of the amplitude and frequency characteristics of the dynamic loads reproduced by the supporting structure and the coefficient of variation of the natural frequencies of translational and torsional vibrations. Methodology. The research is based on fundamental approaches of applied mechanics, machine dynamics and vibration reliability. Findings. The dependences of the eigenfrequencies of torsional vibrations of the body parts of the vibrating machine connected by the connection node on their design parameters and mechanical characteristics are obtained and analyzed. Vibrations around an axis orthogonal to the working direction of the node are considered. A comparative analysis of the natural frequencies of the node in the direction of the transmitted vibration and its circular vibrations from the design parameters and mechanical characteristics of the elastic band elements, their number in the package and the number of packages in the connection node is performed. Originality. It is in the fact that for the first time the dependences describing the natural frequencies of translational and torsional vibrations of the body parts of a vibrating machine, articulated by a package of elastic band elements, are obtained. Also the paradigm for the choice of design parameters and mechanical characteristics of the elastic band element of the package, which is based on the results of a comparative analysis of the eigenfrequencies of vibrations in the working and connected directions through their coefficient of variation is innovative. This made it possible to include the criterion of vibration reproduction accuracy, which is formalized through the coefficient of frequency variation, together with the criteria of strength and rigidity, in the methodology of synthesis of the structural scheme of the vibrating machine. Practical value. The proposed methodological solutions for the calculation and selection of design parameters and mechanical characteristics of tape elastic elements ensure the achievement of vibration activity indicators of articulated parts, as well as the ratio of natural vibration frequencies in the working and related directions at the level of the requirements of normative documents when upgrading existing machines and creating new modern equipment. As a result, the reliability, durability, safety, productivity and load-bearing capacity of machines, equipment and mechanisms of mining engineering, aviation, transport and space technology are increased.

Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer in which mostly damaged unpaired DNA starts mutating abnormally and staged an unprecedented proliferation of epithelial skin to form a malignant tumor. In epidemics of skin, pigment-forming melanocytes of basal cells start depleting and form uneven black or brown moles. Melanoma can further spread all over the body parts and could become hard to detect. In USA Melanoma kills an estimated 10,130 people annually. This challenge can be succumbed by using the certain anti-cancer drug. In this study design, cyclophosphamide were used as a model drug. But it has own limitation like mild to moderate use may cause severe cytopenia, hemorrhagic cystitis, neutropenia, alopecia and GI disturbance. This is a promising challenge, which is caused due to the increasing in plasma drug concentration above therapeutic level and due to no rate limiting steps involved in formulation design. In this study, we tried to modify drug release up to threefold and extended the release of drug by preparing and designing niosome based topical gel. In the presence of Dichloromethane, Span60 and cholesterol, the initial niosomes were prepared using vacuum evaporator. The optimum percentage drug entrapment efficacy, zeta potential, particle size was found to be 72.16%, 6.19mV, 1.67µm.Prepared niosomes were further characterized using TEM analyzer. The optimum batch of niosomes was selected and incorporated into topical gel preparation. Cold inversion method and Poloxamer -188 and HPMC as core polymers, were used to prepare cyclophosphamide niosome based topical gel. The formula was designed using Design expert 7.0.0 software and Box-Behnken Design model was selected. Almost all the evaluation parameters were studied and reported. The MTT shows good % cell growth inhibition by prepared niosome based gel against of A375 cell line. The drug release was extended up to 20th hours. Further as per ICH Q1A (R2), guideline 6 month stability studies were performed. The results were satisfactory and indicating a good formulation approach design was achieved for Melanoma treatment.

This paper provides an analysis of how cultural notions of the body and kinship conveyed through Western medical technologies and practices in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) bring together India's colonial history and its economic development through outsourcing, globalisation and instrumentalised notions of the reproductive body in transnational commercial surrogacy. Essential to this industry is the concept of the disembodied uterus that has arisen in scientific and medical practice, which allows for the logic of the ‘gestational carrier’ as a functional role in ART practices, and therefore in transnational medical fertility travel to India. Highlighting the instrumentalisation of the uterus as an alienable component of a body and subject – and therefore of women's bodies in surrogacy – helps elucidate some of the material and political stakes that accompany the growth of the fertility travel industry in India, where histories of privilege and difference converge. I conclude that the metaphors we use to structure our understanding of bodies and body parts impact how we imagine appropriate roles for people and their bodies in ways that are still deeply entangled with imperial histories of science, and these histories shape the contemporary disparities found in access to medical and legal protections among participants in transnational surrogacy arrangements.

To improve the workout efficiency and to provide the body movement suggestions to users in a “smart gym” environment, we propose to use a depth camera for capturing a user’s body parts and mount multiple inertial sensors on the body parts of a user to generate deadlift behavior models generated by a recurrent neural network structure. The contribution of this paper is trifold: 1) The multimodal sensing signals obtained from multiple devices are fused for generating the deadlift behavior classifiers, 2) the recurrent neural network structure can analyze the information from the synchronized skeletal and inertial sensing data, and 3) a Vaplab dataset is generated for evaluating the deadlift behaviors recognizing capability in the proposed method.

No one wants to be treated like an object, regarded as an item of property, or put up for sale. Yet many people frame personal autonomy in terms of self-ownership, representing themselves as property owners with the right to do as they wish with their bodies. Others do not use the language of property, but are similarly insistent on the rights of free individuals to decide for themselves whether to engage in commercial transactions for sex, reproduction, or organ sales. Drawing on analyses of rape, surrogacy, and markets in human organs, this book challenges notions of freedom based on ownership of our bodies and argues against the normalization of markets in bodily services and parts. The book explores the risks associated with metaphors of property and the reasons why the commodification of the body remains problematic. The book asks what is wrong with thinking of oneself as the owner of one's body? What is wrong with making our bodies available for rent or sale? What, if anything, is the difference between markets in sex, reproduction, or human body parts, and the other markets we commonly applaud? The book contends that body markets occupy the outer edges of a continuum that is, in some way, a feature of all labor markets. But it also emphasizes that we all have bodies, and considers the implications of this otherwise banal fact for equality. Bodies remind us of shared vulnerability, alerting us to the common experience of living as embodied beings in the same world. Examining the complex issue of body exceptionalism, the book demonstrates that treating the body as property makes human equality harder to comprehend.

Ayurveda in its principle has given importance to individualistic approach rather than generalize. Application of this examination can be clearly seem like even though two patients suffering from same disease, the treatment modality may change depending upon the results of Dashvidha Pariksha. Prakruti and Pramana both used in Dashvidha Pariksha. Both determine the health of the individual and Bala (strength) of Rogi (Patient). Ayurveda followed Swa-angula Pramana as the unit of measurement for measuring the different parts of the body which is prime step assessing patient before treatment. Sushruta and Charaka had stated different Angula Pramana of each Pratyanga (body parts). Specificity is the characteristic property of Swa-angula Pramana. This can be applicable in present era for example artificial limbs. A scientific research includes collection, compilation, analysis and lastly scrutiny of entire findings to arrive at a conclusion. Study of Pramana and its relation with Prakruti was conducted in 1000 volunteers using Prakruti Parkishan proforma with an objective of evaluation of Anguli Pramana in various Prakriti. It was observed co-relating Pramana in each Prakruti and Granthokta Pramana that there is no vast difference in measurement of head, upper limb and lower limb. The observational study shows closer relation of features with classical texts.

Romeo’s well-known excuse that he cannot dance because he has soles of lead is demonstrative of the autonomous volitional quality Shakespeare ascribes to body parts, his utilization of humoral somatic psychology, and the horizontally divided body according to early modern dance practice and theory. This chapter considers the autonomy of and disagreement between the body parts and the unruliness of the humors within Shakespeare’s dramas, particularly Romeo and Juliet. An understanding of the body as a house of conflicting parts can be applied to the feet of the dancing body in early modern times, as is evinced not only by literary texts, but dance manuals as well. The visuality dominating the dance floor provided opportunity for social advancement as well as ridicule, as contemporary sources document. Dance practice is compared with early modern swordplay in their shared approaches to the training and social significance of bodily proportion and rhythm.

Meditation practice is mental health training. It helps people to reduce stress and suppress negative thoughts. In this paper, we propose a camera-based meditation evaluation system, that helps meditators to improve their performance. We rely on two main criteria to measure the focus: the breathing characteristics (respiratory rate, breathing rhythmicity and stability), and the body movement. We introduce a contactless sensor to measure the respiratory rate based on a smartphone camera by detecting the chest keypoint at each frame, using an optical flow based algorithm to calculate the displacement between frames, filtering and de-noising the chest movement signal, and calculating the number of real peaks in this signal. We also present an approach to detecting the movement of different body parts (head, thorax, shoulders, elbows, wrists, stomach and knees). We have collected a non-annotated dataset for meditation practice videos consists of ninety videos and the annotated dataset consists of eight videos. The non-annotated dataset was categorized into beginner and professional meditators and was used for the development of the algorithm and for tuning the parameters. The annotated dataset was used for evaluation and showed that human activity during meditation practice could be correctly estimated by the presented approach and that the mean absolute error for the respiratory rate is around 1.75 BPM, which can be considered tolerable for the meditation application.
