The transport of liquefied natural gas (LNG) has significant impact on traffic capacity of waterways, especially the approach channels shared by LNG carriers and other types of ships (general cargo ships, container ships, etc.). Few studies take the behavioral characteristics of LNG carriers and their impacts into consideration. In this paper, we propose a framework for capacity analysis of shared approach channels based on the spatial–temporal consumption method. It consists of three modules: (1) the tide module predicts the tidal height and tidal time for identifying the time windows for LNG carriers; (2) the spatial–temporal consumption module is introduced to calculate the capacity of approach channels; (3) the LNG carrier navigation module is for analyzing the characteristics of LNG carriers and the impact on the capacity of approach channels. A spatial–temporal indexed chart is designed to visualize the utilization of the spatial–temporal resources. A case study on the approach channel of Yueqing Bay near the east coast of China is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the framework. The utilization rates of the approach channel and the impact of LNG carriers are presented using our method. The results of the case study indicate that the proposed traffic capacity analyzing framework can provide support for making traffic management strategies.

Behavioral characteristic is one of the important targets in conceptual design and re-design of electromechanical products. To summarize the knowledge of behavior characteristics of electromechanical products, this paper proposed the concepts of behavioral effect, elemental behavior and behavioral chain. It made the modification to classical Petri nets, then analyzed and expressed the behavior characteristics using the modified Petri nets. Finally, a case study of an electric nail-gun was conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed methodologies.

In conceptual mechanical design process, designers sometimes focus their attentions on mapping a sub-function or functional unit to a single mechanism or system, and ignore the interfaces among the structural elements. This paper first summarized the behavioral characteristic of the interfaces in energy, mechanics, kinematics by analyzing the roles, classification and connection styles of such interfaces. Subsequently, it introduced the concepts of function and free surface, and gave the interface design process. Finally, a case study was conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed methodologies.

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the theoretical-practical articulation of the continuous learning of leadership in undergraduate Nursing. Methods: Case study carried out at a Northeast federal public university. For data collection, semi-structured interview techniques, workshops, and document analysis were applied. Forty Nursing students participated in the interviews, and 26 in the workshops. The data were submitted to Minayo’s operative analysis using the Nvivo software. Peter Senge’s concepts were adopted. Results: The students demonstrated a greater understanding of the theme throughout the course and recognized contributing elements to the continuous learning of leadership, such as behavioral characteristics and the use of methodological approaches integrated with theoretical and practical spaces. Final considerations: The teaching of leadership is relevant in Nursing education, and this has been recognized by students, but still requires changes for it to become operational, with an improvement and a theoretical-practical integration of the cultivated experiences, suitable to the reality of the craft.

Perkembangan sensori merupakan perkembangan penting bagi individu. Sejak lahir, individu mulai memproses informasi sensori yang diperoleh dari lingkungan. Setiap informasi yang diterima sensori individu akan diintegrasikan dan diolah di otak sehingga menampilkan respons perilaku adaptif. Integrasi sensori dapat membantu individu untuk menguasai kemampuan dasar, seperti bahasa, pengendalian emosi, dan kemampuan berhitung. Masalah dalam integrasi sensori berkaitan dengan masalah dalam pemrosesan informasi sensori yang dikenal sebagai Regulatory Sensory Processing Disorder (RSPD). Ketika individu mengalami masalah dalam pemrosesan informasi sensori, maka individu akan mengalami hambatan baik dalam keberfungsiannya sehari-hari maupun perkembangannya. Masalah sensori dapat dikenali sejak dini melalui karakteristik perilaku yang ditampilkan anak. Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran perilaku anak dengan Regulatory Sensory Processing Disorder. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini berjumlah satu orang yang merupakan pasien anak pada Klinik Tumbuh Kembang X. Metode pengambilan data menggunakan observasi, wawancara, dan asesmen psikologi. Ada pun sumber informasi diperoleh langsung melalui partisipan, orangtua, dan terapis. Untuk mengetahui gambaran fungsi sensori pada partisipan, peneliti menggunakan daftar observasi wawancara yang tertera pada ICDL-DMIC (2005). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa partisipan yang terlibat dalam penelitian ini mengalami gangguan pemrosesan sensori dengan tipe sensory-seeking. Partisipan penelitian menampilkan perilaku yang sangat aktif bergerak dan kesulitan memberikan atensi pada tugas yang diberikan. Hal tersebut berdampak pada performa akademis dan interaksi sosial yang dimiliki. Sensory development is an important development for individuals. From birth, individuals begin to process sensory information obtained from the environment. Every information received by an individual sensory receptor will be integrated and processed in the brain so that it displays an adaptive behavioral response. Sensory integration can help individuals to master basic abilities, such as language, emotional control, and numeracy skills. Problems in sensory integration are related to problems in processing sensory information known as Regulatory Sensory Processing Disorder (RSPD). When individuals experience problems in processing sensory information, individuals will experience obstacles both in their daily functioning and development. Sensory problems can be recognized early on through the behavioral characteristics displayed by children. Therefore, this study aims to describe the behaviour of children with Regulatory Sensory Processing Disorder. This research is a qualitative research with case study method. The sole participant in this study is a pediatric patient in the Growth and Development Clinic X. Data collection used observation, interviews, and psychological assessment. Information was also obtained directly through participants, parents, and therapists. To find out the description of sensory functions in participants, researchers used the interview observation list listed in ICDL-DMIC (2005). The results showed that the participants involved in this study experienced sensory-seeking type sensory processing disorders. Participant displayed very active behavior and difficulty in attending to the tasks assigned. This has an impact on academic performance and social interactions.
