Rate of convergence of regularization procedures and ﬁnite element approximations for the total variation

Summary. We derive rates of convergence for regularization procedures (characterized by a parameter ε ) and ﬁnite element approximations of the total variation ﬂow, which arises from image processing, geometric analysis and materials sciences. Practically useful error estimates, which depend on 1 ε only in low polynomial orders, are established for the proposed fully discrete ﬁnite element approximations. As a result, scaling laws which relate mesh parameters to the regularization parameter are also obtained. Numerical experiments are provided to validate the theoretical results and show efﬁciency of the proposed numerical methods.
Efficacy and Safety of Cangrelor in Women Versus Men During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Insights From the Cangrelor versus Standard Therapy to Achieve Optimal Management of Platelet Inhibition (CHAMPION PHOENIX) Trial

Background —Cangrelor is an intravenous ADP receptor antagonist that leads to potent and reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation. The relative safety and efficacy of some antiplatelet drugs in women has been disputed. Methods and Results —The Cangrelor versus Standard Therapy to Achieve Optimal Management of Platelet Inhibition (CHAMPION PHOENIX) trial randomized 11 145 patients undergoing elective or urgent percutaneous coronary intervention to cangrelor or clopidogrel. The primary efficacy end point was the composite of death, myocardial infarction, ischemia-driven revascularization, or stent thrombosis at 48 hours; the key secondary end point was stent thrombosis at 48 hours. The primary safety end point was GUSTO severe bleeding at 48 hours. Of subjects analyzed, 3051 (28%) were female. Cangrelor reduced the odds of the primary end point by 35% in women (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.65; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48–0.89) and by 14% in men (OR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.70–1.05; P interaction=0.23) compared with clopidogrel. Cangrelor reduced the odds of stent thrombosis by 61% in women (OR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.20–0.77) and 16% in men (OR, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.53–1.33; P interaction=0.11). The odds of severe bleeding were similar in both women and men treated with cangrelor (0.3% versus 0.2%, P =0.30 [women]; 0.1% versus 0.1%, P =0.41 [men]; P interaction=0.88) versus clopidogrel. Cangrelor increased the odds of moderate bleeding in women (0.9% versus 0.3%, P =0.02), but not in men (0.2% versus 0.2%, P =0.68; P interaction=0.040). The net clinical benefit (primary efficacy and safety end point) favored cangrelor in both women (OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.50–0.92) 0.87; 95% 0.71–1.06; P interaction=0.26).
Progress in Fluid Power, Mechanisations and Mechatronics Synthesis of A Coil Spring Activated Starter for Use in An Internal Combustion Engine

INFO 2018 An internal combustion (IC) engine starting system requires an external torque to overcome the cranking resistance in order to commence the engine operation. Normally, this is achieved by applying an electrical starter motor powered by a battery that usually contains harmful chemicals. This may contribute to pollution like explosions, fires, leakages, as well as air poisoning. Alternatively, a spring offers mechanical energy storage capability through elastic deformation and it is well suited and proven in engine-starting application. Basically, a suitable spring may provide high power densities and has the ability to discharge quickly. Consequently, the focus here is on designing the compression spring that provides enough torque to turn the starter shaft in order to deliver the minimum torque required on engine starter pinion. Furthermore, the spring is analysed for fatigue using simulations in ANSYS. The analysis predicted that the mechanical starter life could withstand 317, 960 cycles of operation before failure. Next, the new concept of mechanical spring starter was developed in CATIA in order to design the compression spring as an energy storage device and also the other mechanisms like the locking mechanism and the connection to the
Coupling Inﬂuence on the dq Impedance Stability Analysis for the Three-Phase Grid-Connected Inverter

: The dq impedance stability analysis for a grid-connected current-control inverter is based on the impedance ratio matrix. However, the coupled matrix brings difﬁculties in deriving its eigenvalues for the analysis based on the general Nyquist criterion. If the couplings are ignored for simpliﬁcation, unacceptable errors will be present in the analysis. In this paper, the inﬂuence of the couplings on the dq impedance stability analysis is studied. To take the couplings into account simply, the determinant-based impedance stability analysis is used. The mechanism between the determinant of the impedance-ratio matrix and the inverter stability is unveiled. Compared to the eigenvalues-based analysis, only one determinant rather than two eigenvalue s-function is required for the stability analysis. One Nyquist plot or pole map can be applied to the determinant to check the right-half-plane poles. The accuracy of the determinant-based stability analysis is also checked by comparing with the state-space stability analysis method. For the stability analysis, the coupling inﬂuence on the current control, the phase-locked loop, and the grid impedance are studied. The errors can be 10% in the stability analysis if the couplings are ignored.
Review of Top-Down Method to Determine Atmospheric Emissions in Port. Case of Study: Port of Veracruz, Mexico

Indicators of environmental policies in force in Mexico, fossil fuels will continue to be used in industrial sectors, especially marine fuels, such as marine diesel oil, in port systems for some time. Considering this, we have evaluated several methods corresponding to a top-down system for determining fuel consumption and sulfur dioxide atmospheric emissions for the port of Veracruz in 2020 by type of ship on a daily resolution, considering a sulfur content of 0.5% mass by mass in marine fuel. After analyzing seven methods for determining sulfur dioxide atmospheric emission levels, Goldsworthy’s method was found to be the best option to characterize this port. The port system has two maritime zones, one of which is in expansion, which represented 55.66% of fuel consumption and 23.05% of atmospheric emissions according to the typology of vessels. We found that higher fuel consumption corresponded to container vessels, and tanker vessels represented higher atmospheric emission levels in the berthing position. The main differences that we found in the analysis of the seven methods of the top-down system corresponded to the load factor parameter, main and auxiliary engine power, and estimation of fuel consumption by type of vessel.
Evaluating Public Consultation in Urban Planning via Neural Language Models and Topic Modelling

Urban planning has the fundamental role of managing the cooperative development of ever bigger cities and the community’s cultures inhabiting those places. To make the best decisions, urban planners need to analyse relevant data and community responses, spread through abundant reports. This process can be labour intensive and might lead to overlooking less prominent but still relevant concerns of minorities. In this study, we present a Natural Language Processing framework to assist the analysis of consultation reports. The framework leverages state-of-the-art techniques that enable the urban planners to easily describe the issues of interest in free text and, as a result, to accurately identify the emerging concerns from different stakeholders. A first assessment of the London Plan’s Green Belt policy has shown the capability of detecting specific community interests about urban planner problems, allowing quick identification of minorities’ issues, otherwise overlooked due to the vast amount of data.
Using the single index model to create a short-term mine plan

How to effectively plan, sequence and schedule for extraction the areas within an underground mining operation is a financial reward-maximising issue for the mining community. The mining industry is one that has a heightened level of uncertainty due to the fact that the product is not known with certainty until after it has been produced. As a result, decisions on how to allocate the limited resources that are available in both the long-term and short-term must be made with less than perfect information. If the underground mine is divided into distinct areas, and each area is scheduled independently as a discrete, standalone area, the characteristics of the individual areas can be likened to those of a financial asset, having an expected return over a period of time, as well as risk associated with that return based on the uncertainty surrounding the underlying factors that contribute to its value. There are limited theoretical tools that allow mine planning professionals to confidently plan their extraction sequences in a manner that minimises the risk of stochastic changes in industry forces. As a result, this study proposes the use of the single index model (SIM) as part of the mine scheduling process, providing a tool to assist decision-makers in selecting optimum mine areas for inclusion in the short-term plan so that proper mining sequences can be established with the most effective allocation of resources. This process is similar to that of an investor considering a number of alternative assets for investment, and using the SIM to identify the assets to be included in their portfolio.
Biological Psychology Don ’ t judge me: Psychophysiological evidence of gender di ﬀ erences to social evaluative feedback

Human beings have a basic need for esteemed social connections, and receiving negative self-evaluative feed- back induces emotional distress. The aim of the current study is to measure eye movements (a physiological marker of attention allocation) and pupillary responses (a physiological marker of cognitive and emotional processing) as online and objective indices of participants ’ reaction to positive/negative social evaluations from the same or opposite sex. Following the paradigm, subjective mood ratings and heart rate variability (HRV) – as an objective index of regulatory e ﬀ ort- were measured. Results demonstrate clear gender-speci ﬁ c results in all measures. Eye-movements demonstrate that male participants respond more with other-focused attention (and speci ﬁ cally to male participants), whereas women respond more with self-focused attention following negative social evaluative feedback. Pupillary responses show that social evaluative feedback is speci ﬁ cally eliciting cognitive/a ﬀ ective processes in male participants to regulate emotional responses when provided by the opposite gender. Finally, following the paradigm, female (as compared to male) participants were more sub- jectively reactive to the paradigm (i.e., self-reports), and were less able to engage contextual- and goal related regulatory control of emotional responses (reduced HRV). Although the current study focused on psychiatrically healthy young adults, results may contribute to our understanding of sex di ﬀ erences in internalizing mental problems, such as rumination.
Identifying the Causes of the Spandex Breakage of Woven Garments and its Solutions

The aim of this research is to investigate the causes of the spandex breakage of woven garments while manufacturing and to find out their solutions.97% of cotton and 3% of spandex woven fabrics were used for making the woven garments. Woven garments of different stages like non-wash garments, garments with spandex breakage and garments without spandex breakage were used in this research for experiment. Performances of the elasticity of the spandex and its content were assessed using IR (Infrared Radiation) spectroscopy with the facilities of the FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) instrument in agreement with ASTM E168 Standard. Diffusion of infrared radiation delineates the elastic performances and its content on the garments with the standard specified in ASTM E168.Spandex portion of the denim garments has a tendency to go inside just after cutting since in this stage yarns do not have any tension. Sewing needle cut the yarns during stitching. The more the stitch per inch is, the more the spandex breakage is. Temperature of the needle increases while stitching and this increased temperature spoils the spandex portion by melting inside it. Higher temperature from dyeing bath spoils the spandex portion of the woven garments. Insufficient sewing allowance, incorrect sewing needle, improper machine tension, scrapping on garments, access temperature all the things were the cause of the spandex damage of the elastic garments.Using of special ball point needle, using of rotary knife while cutting, avoidance of using hot gun, avoiding chlorine bleach and stone wash, using of low temperature ironing, using of dummy while scrapping and all other steps mentioned in the research can be applied practically to overcome spandex breakage of garments.Due to having poor facilities of the testing laboratories only a few experiments with FTIR test were carried out in this research.This research is practiced based and the findings can be beneficial to the personnel involved in the textile industries who are responsible for the manufacture of spandex garments and to control of their properties. This research opened possible ways for the scholar to further study in this field.
A STUDY ON THE EFFICIENCY OF 3PL LOGISTICS OPERATIONS

: Third party logistics (3PL) has become an important source of competitive advantage, especially in supply chains. Based on the literature review, this study develops a research model from organizational theory to elaborate the cause and effect relationship between 3PL service quality, organizational effectiveness, and relationship management with service partners. After the measurement model is analyzed, the structural model is tested and confirmed. The testing and confirmation results show that the significant criteria that are related to 3PL organizational performance comprise three constructs: service quality (SQ), organizational effectiveness (OE), and relationship management (RM). The results indicate that the causal relationships between service quality, organizational effectiveness, and relationship management are important dimensions of 3PL organizational performance. The results also confirm the multidimensional measurement capacity of 3PL organizational success and support the application of the concept to organizational performance. relationship management. The study results indicate that the causal relationship between service quality, organizational effectiveness, and relationship management are three important aspects of 3PL organizational performance. The results confirm the multidimensional measurement of 3PL organizational success and provide support for the application of the conceptualization to 3PL organizational performance.
Forecasting with Reference to a Speciﬁc Climatology

Seasonalforecastsaremostcommonlyissuedasanomalieswithrespecttosomemultiyearreferenceperiod. However, different seasonal forecasting centers use different reference periods. This paper shows that for near-surface temperature, precipitation, and mean sea level pressure, over most regions of the world there is evidence that these differences between reference periods should not be ignored, especially when forecasters combine outputs from several prediction systems. Three methods are presented by which reference periods could be adjusted, and it is shown that the differences between the proposed methods are smaller than the errors that result from not correcting for different reference periods.
Performance analysis of spectral responses of a.cepa peel dyesensitized solar cells to liquid electrolytes

This study investigates the effect of variation of electrolyte on the output performance of A.cepa peel dye-sensitized solar cells. Four A.cepa dye-sensitized solar cells were sensitized with different liquid electrolytes. The criteria used for assessing their performance was the short circuit current (I sc ), open circuit voltage (V oc ), maximum power (P max ), fill factor (ff), output efficiency (ƞ) and the incident photon to conversion efficiency (IPCE). The responses produced by the A.cepa dye solar cells were varied. The most efficient electrolyte was Mercury chloride (HgCl 2 ) with an efficiency of 0.27%, potassium bromide (KBr) recorded the highest value in maximum power (P max ), fill factor (ff) and open circuit voltage (V oc ) with the following values: 38.09 W, 2.83 and 700 V respectively. HgCl 2 also had the highest I sc , with a value of 0.04 mA and the best IPCE was obtained with KCl with a value of 1.64%. The significance of this outcome is that, HgCl 2 and KCl electrolytes influenced the performance of A.cepa peel dye-sensitized solar cell by suppressing dye agglutination while KBr electrolyte improved A.cepa peel dye-sensitized solar cell’s electrochemical stability.
A New Meta-Paradigm for the Synthesis of Antenna Arrays for Future Wireless Communications

An innovative meta-paradigm is introduced to design unconventional capacity-driven antenna architectures for future multiuser communications. Toward this end, the problem of synthesizing the array layout and the excitations of the radiating elements is formulated in terms of the maximization of the communication quality depending on the actual Green’s function of the whole propagation scenario, including the antenna systems, instead of considering standard free-space conditions and related performance indexes. More specifically, a time-domain model of the electromagnetic environment is exploited to derive the expression of the link quality measure. The customization of the proposed meta-paradigm to two relevant and representative excitation-only synthesis problems, concerned with fully populated and contiguously clustered arrangements, is then presented. Some results from an exhaustive numerical validation are reported to illustrate features, potentialities, and limitations of the proposed approach also in comparison with the standard “free-space”-oriented methodology for array design.

The Vitamin D 3 Requirement of Broiler Breeders 1

An experiment was conducted with 25- to 66-wk-old Ross broiler breeders in an environment excluding ultraviolet light to determine the cholecalciferol (D 3 ) requirements for hen day egg production; hatchability; body weight of the progeny at 1 d; embryo mortality during the early (1 to 10 d of incubation), middle (11 to 15 d of incubation), and late stages (16 to 21 d of incubation) of development; egg weight; speciﬁc gravity; and body ash of the progeny at 1 d of age. Five levels of vitamin D 3 (125, 250, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 IU/kg of diet) were fed to hens from 25 to 66 wk of age. One additional group was fed no supplemental D 3 until 36 wk of age and was then changed to 4,000 IU/kg of diet. Separate regression analyses were performed for wk 27 to 36 (peak original design) and for wk 37 to 66 (postpeak production modiﬁed design). The D 3 levels for the predicted maximum hen day egg production during peak and postpeak were 1,424 and 2,804 IU/kg, respectively. The D 3 levels for the predicted maximum hatchability were 1,390 IU/ kg (peak) and 2,708 IU/kg (postpeak). The level of D 3 2006 85:674–692
Optimal Morphologic Response to Chemotherapy and Bevacizumab Correlates with Long Term Outcome in a Patient with Colorectal Liver Metastatic Cancer

Since the introduction of antiangiogenic agents, RECIST criteria sometimes are insufficient in assessing response to chemotherapy in colorectal liver metastases (CLM). According to CHOI criteria it has been seen that morphologic changes in tumor can predict pathologic response and long-term survival of CLM patients treated with chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab in resectable or unresectable disease. We present a case of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) treated with bevacizumab-containing chemotherapy that obtained an optimal morphologic response and long-term outcome.

Finally, quantitative imaging combined with classifier algorithms may be useful sufficient given the complexity and heterogeneity of tumors, so the ability to quantify complex systems will be of could be a useful tool for helping guide the management of cancer patients. Qualitative approaches alone are not . study demonstrates that mathematical modeling et al not. Although much more work needs to be done, the Tran tumors that were oncogene-addicted and hence were most likely to benefit from this treatment from those who did had been treated with oncoprotein-targeted therapy. Their model was able to differentiate patients who had lung mice that did not respond. They then extended this quantitative imaging approach to humans with lung cancer who support vector machine to accurately differentiate mice that responded to oncoprotein-targeted therapy from those survival and death pathways. The group then used quantitative imaging of mouse tumors to train an algorithm called for oncogene addiction could predict the distinct temporal relationships of signaling molecules from converging lymphoma cells in mice treated with oncoprotein-targeted therapies. They also showed that their mathematical model and cell death pathways in the tumors, Tran and colleagues were able to predict the clinical behavior of lung and premise that oncogene addiction could be deduced from the balance between converging signals from cell survival mathematically model the behavior of oncogene-addicted lung and lymphoma tumors.
