In orthopedic surgery and in particular in total hip arthroplasty, the implant fixation is carried out using a surgical cement called polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA). This cement has to insure a good adhesion between implant and bone and a good load distribution to the bone. By its fragile nature, the cement can easily break when it is subjected to a high stress gradient by presenting a craze zone in the vicinity of inclusion. The focus of this study is to analyze the effect of inclusion in some zone of cement in which the loading condition can lead to the crack opening leading to their propagation and consequently the aseptic loosening of the THR. In this study, the fracture behavior of the bone cement including a strange body (bone remain) from which the onset of a crack is supposed. The effect of loading condition, the geometry, the presence of both crack and inclusion on the stress distribution and the fracture behavior of the cement. Results show that the highest stresses are located around the sharp tip of bony inclusion. Most critical cracks are located in the middle of the cement mantle when they are subjected to one leg standing state loading during walking.

The study aims to determine the influence of intellectual capital and education on public financial services in increasing financial inclusion. This study applied a survey technique by selecting respondents according to the purposive sampling method. The number of respondents in this study was 500 people and came from various regions in Indonesia. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) techniques. The results indicate that intellectual capital has a positive effect on financial inclusion. Conversely, education about public financial services has no influence in increasing financial inclusion. The results of this study indicate that the success of financial inclusion programs in Indonesia is caused more by the role of public intellectual capital. Studies show that the public does not have the courage to be involved in banking institutions because the image of this institution tends to be inflexible in its operations. The results of this study are expected to make a real contribution, especially for the government and banks, that in order to achieve the success of the financial inclusion program in Indonesia; the related parties should educate the public directly to citizens who have not been reached by banking services continuously and with a more down to earth approach.

The main purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between financial inclusion and socio-economic and demographic factors. Ownership of bank accounts, availing of credit facility, and use of mobile banking were considered the major indicators of financial inclusion. To achieved this objective, the present study was conducted in the rural regions of three hill districts of Uttarakhand. 780 rural households were selected by using stratified and judgment sampling technique. To measure the association between the variables, binary logistic regression model was employed. The findings of the study revealed that there is a significant association of socio-economic variables with financial inclusion. The overall analysis of the study indicates that the likelihood of having bank account, usage of mobile banking facility, and availing credit facility increases with the increase in the financial literacy of an individual in hill rural regions of the state. Further, the study also indicates the vulnerability of women relative to that of men in both cases of mobile usage and availing credit. The findings of the study suggest to target the economically vulnerable section of population (as identified in case of having low financial inclusion) and enhancing the financial literacy in these regions.

First the notion of the A-monotonicity is applied to the approximation - solvability of a class of nonlinear variational inclusion problems, and then the convergence analysis is given based on a projection-like method. Results generalize nonlinear variational inclusions involving H-monotone mappings in the Hilbert space setting.

In this work, by using Xu's inequality, Nalder's results, the notion of $(A,\;{\eta})-accretive$ mappings and the new resolvent operator technique associated with $(A,\;{\eta})-accretive$ mappings due to Lan et al., we study the existence of solutions for a new class of $(A,\;{\eta})-accretive$ variational inclusion problems with non-accretive set-valued mappings and the convergence of the iterative sequences generated by the algorithms in Banach spaces. Our results are new and extend, improve and unify the corresponding results in this field.

The influences of various parameters such as inclusions, surface roughness, exposed areas and chloride ion concentrations on the initiation of pitting of Fe-17Cr alloy were investigated, using micro-droplet cell technique. Micro-droplet cell allows one to align the micro-electrode to the desired spot of the working electrode and measure directly local currents with the potentiodynamic polarization. Micro electrochemical tests were carried out at the inclusions after EDX analysis of inclusion. EDX analysis identified inclusions as Cr-oxides. It was found that some active inclusions among Cr-oxide inclusions acted as initiation sites for pitting corrosion. In addition, the rougher surface and the denser chloride ion concentration offered easier pit initiation sites, causing the more susceptible to pitting corrosion.

This paper is concerned with the existence of solutions to the following fractional differential inclusion $$\{-{\frac{d}{dx}}\(p_0D^{-{\beta}}_x(u^{\prime}(x)))+q_xD^{-{\beta}}_1(u^{\prime}(x))\){\in}{\partial}F_u(x,u),\;x{\in}(0,1),\\u(0)=u(1)=0,$$ where $_0D^{-{\beta}}_x$ and $_xD^{-{\beta}}_1$ are left and right Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals of order ${\beta}{\in}(0,1)$ respectively, 0 < p = 1 - q < 1 and $F:[0,1]{\times}{\mathbb{R}}{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{R}}$ is locally Lipschitz with respect to the second variable. Due to the general assumption on the constants p and q, the problem does not have a variational structure. Despite that, here we study it combining with an iterative technique and nonsmooth critical point theory, we obtain an existence result for the above problem under suitable assumptions. The result extends some corresponding results in the literatures.

The inclusion of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ $({\beta}-CyD)$ with prothionamide in aqueous phase was investigated by circular dichroism(CD), ultraviolet (UV) absorption, and solubility technique. The results suggested that a region of drug chromophore was located within the asymmetric center of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$. Solubility and spectral changes were quantitatively treated to obtain stoichiometric ratio, which was found to be 1 : 1, and formation constants which were determined by solubility, CD, and UV method were 257, 367, and 389 $M^{-1}$, respectively. Also, the formation constant of the inclusion complex was determined by CD method at various pH. The result was that $K_c$ depended upon the pH of medium, and this fact also supported that thioamide moiety was accomodated in the cavity of ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$.

In this paper, we study an iterative algorithm that is based on inertial proximal and contraction methods embellished with relaxation technique, for finding common solution of monotone variational inclusion, and fixed point problems of pseudocontractive mapping in real Hilbert spaces. We establish a strong convergence result of the proposed iterative method based on prediction stepsize conditions, and under some standard assumptions on the algorithm parameters. Finally, some special cases of general problem are given as applications. Our results improve and generalized some well-known and related results in literature.

In this paper, we study the problem of finding a common solution to a fixed point problem involving a finite family of ρ-demimetric operators and a split monotone inclusion problem with monotone and Lipschitz continuous operator in real Hilbert spaces. Motivated by the inertial technique and the Tseng method, a new and efficient iterative method for solving the aforementioned problem is introduced and studied. Also, we establish a strong convergence result of the proposed method under standard and mild conditions.
