Collective behavior of evaporating droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces

We study the evaporation dynamics of multiple water droplets deposited in ordered arrays or randomly distributed (sprayed) on superhydrophobic substrates (SHP) and smooth silicone wafers (SW). The evaluation of mass of the droplets as a function of time shows a power-law behavior with exponent 3/2, and from the prefactor of the power-law an evaporation rate can be determined. We find that the evaporation rate on a SHP surface is slower than a normal surface for both single droplet and collection of droplets. By dividing a large droplet into more smaller ones, the evaporation rate increases and the difference between the evaporation rates on SHP and SW surfaces becomes higher. The evaporation rates depend also on the distance between the droplets and increase with increasing this distance.
Theory of tunneling conductance of anomalous Rashba metal/superconductor junctions

We theoretically study charge conductance in anomalous Rashba metal (ARM)/superconductor junctions for various types of pairing symmetries in a superconductor. The exotic state dubbed ARM, where one of the spin-resolved Fermi surfaces is absent, is realized when the chemical potential is tuned both in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction (RSOI) and an exchange field. Although a fully polarized ferromagnet metal (FPFM) is also a system in which the electron's spin degrees of freedom are reduced by half, the electrons in an ARM have features that are distinct from those in a FPFM. For the ARM/spin-singlet superconductor junctions, the obtained tunneling conductance within the bulk energy gap is enhanced with the increase in magnitude of the RSOI. In particular, in $\text{ARM/}{d}_{xy}\text{-wave}$ superconductor junctions, the zero-bias conductance peak is enhanced due to the presence of the RSOI. For $\text{ARM/}{p}_{x}\text{-wave}$ superconductor junctions, the condition of the existence of the zero-bias conductance peak is significantly sensitive to the direction of the $\mathbit{d}$ vector of the ${p}_{x}\text{-wave}$ superconductor. Furthermore, the obtained conductance in ARM/chiral $p\text{-wave}$ superconductor junctions shows different behaviors as compared to those in ARM/helical $p\text{-wave}$ superconductor junctions. This feature serves as a guide to determine the spin structure of a Cooper pair in the spin-triplet superconductor ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}{\mathrm{RuO}}_{4}$.
HARRY POTTER" AND MORAL VALUES LEARNING: A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF THE RESPONSE OF CHILDREN AGED 11-13 YEARS AGAINST J.K. ROWLING BOOKS

"Harry Potter" and Moral Value Learning ​​is a qualitative study of the response of students aged 11-13 at an international Christian school in Bekasi, Indonesia, towards the phenomenal J.K Rowling text. Through the hermeneutic method, this research tried to seek the influence of Harry Potter texts, which are suspected of bringing adverse effects for their young readers. Besides, this research offers rational considerations to the authority in schools, especially regarding matters related to book censorship. Three things investigated in this study were the ability of students to think critically in making a distinction between fiction and facts in the Harry Potter text, the influence of the Harry Potter text on students' tendencies of violence and occultism, and finally about student learning of moral values ​​contained in the text. The data was collected through in-depth interviews with two male respondents and three female respondents aged 11-13 years with a high religious background, mediocre, and less significant religious background. It was found that all respondents were able to distinguish between fiction and facts in the Harry Potter texts, and there was no significant evidence that the texts influenced respondents' tendency for violence nor respondents' interest in occultism. This study also found that respondents were able to identify the moral values ​​contained in the text.
On the Early In Situ Formation of Pluto’s Small Satellites

The formation of Pluto’s small satellites—Styx, Nix, Keberos, and Hydra—remains a mystery. Their orbits are nearly circular and are near mean-motion resonances and nearly coplanar with Charon’s orbit. One scenario suggests that they all formed close to their current locations from a disk of debris that was ejected from the Charon-forming impact before the tidal evolution of Charon. The validity of this scenario is tested by performing N-body simulations with the small satellites treated as test particles and Pluto–Charon evolving tidally from an initial orbit at a few Pluto radii with initial eccentricity eC = 0 or 0.2. After tidal evolution, the free eccentricities efree of the test particles are extracted by applying fast Fourier transformation to the distance between the test particles and the center of mass of the system and compared with the current eccentricities of the four small satellites. The only surviving test particles with efree matching the eccentricities of the current satellites are those not affected by mean-motion resonances during the tidal evolution in a model with Pluto’s effective tidal dissipation function Q = 100 and an initial eC = 0.2 that is damped down rapidly. However, these test particles do not have any preference to be in or near 4:1, 5:1, and 6:1 resonances with Charon. An alternative scenario may be needed to explain the formation of Pluto’s small satellites.
Tritium distributions on W-coated divertor tiles used in the third JET ITER-like wall campaign

Tritium (T) distributions on tungsten (W)-coated plasma-facing tiles used in the third ITER-like wall campaign (2015–2016) of the Joint European Torus (JET) were examined by means of an imaging plate technique and β-ray induced x-ray spectrometry, and they were compared with the distributions after the second (2013–2014) campaign. Strong enrichment of T in beryllium (Be) deposition layers was observed after the second campaign. In contrast, T distributions after the third campaign was more uniform though Be deposition layers were visually recognized. The one of the possible explanations is enhanced desorption of T from Be deposition layers due to higher tile temperatures caused by higher energy input in the third campaign.
Time-dependent density functional theory for periodic systems

In this thesis the time-dependent version of density functional theory is described, which has been developed for crystalline non-metallic systems with periodicity in one to three dimensions. The application of this theory to the calculation of the optical reponse properties of a wide range of materials proved to be very successful. Zie: Summary
Analysis of Inspection and Maintenance Program for in-use motorcycle emissions in Indonesia

Motorcycle ownership increase rapidly in urban and rural areas of Indonesia during rapid growth of economic development. In order to reduce motorcycle exhaust emissions, Government of Indonesia and local government of several cities enacted Inspection and Maintenance program for in-use motorcycle. We apply bivariate probit model for the likelihood of CO and HC emission violations given a set of motorcycle characteristics which obtained from on-road measurement at Jakarta, Bandung and Surabaya in 2004. Maintenance quality and running kilometer per year play a significant role in determining the probability of emission test. Furthermore, GDP per capita and urban density influences personal motorcycle mobility per capita per year at city level data. Comparing estimation results among those cities, the results of Bandung differed significantly with Jakarta. In order to pass motorcycle emission test, empirical study confirm that high mobility at low population density is better than low mobility at high density of the city.

This study adopts per capita income as the proxy for economic development, while loans to private sectors, loans to government sectors, money supply, and lending interest rate were the financial deepening variables. We use the Ng-Perron and Augmented Dickey-Fuller Breakpoint Unit Root Tests to check the presence of unit root, and in determining the order of integration of the variables– I(d) in the presence of structural break for each variables respectively, while the T-Y augmented Granger non-causality test is used to reveal how causal effects flow in this study. Hence, taking into account the effect of structural breaks, we found that bank loans to government sectors and lending interest rates were stationary series as p < 0.01. We also found from the T-Y Granger non-causality results in its overall sense that the feedback hypothesis by contrast to prior studies holds in the developing country context. The feedback hypothesis establishes that bank loans and economic development Granger cause each other. In this paper, we recommended among other things that the monetary authorities should regulate the activities of bank deposits to ensure that they gear up the growth of loans to private sectors by examining factors, such as lending interest rate which can possibly undermine lending to these sectors; considering their role as key engine of economic growth in any developing economy.
ZFP 57 recognizes multiple and closely spaced sequence motif variants to maintain repressive epigenetic marks in mouse embryonic stem cells

Imprinting Control Regions (ICRs) need to maintain their parental allele-specific DNA methylation during early embryogenesis despite genome-wide demethylation and subsequent de novo methylation. ZFP57 and KAP1 are both required for maintaining the repressive DNA methylation and H3-lysine9-trimethylation (H3K9me3) at ICRs. In vitro, ZFP57 binds a specific hexanucleotide motif that is enriched at its genomic binding sites. We now demonstrate in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) that SNPs disrupting closely-spaced hexanucleotide motifs are associated with lack of ZFP57 binding and H3K9me3 enrichment. Through a transgenic approach in mouse ESCs, we further demonstrate that an ICR fragment containing three ZFP57 motif sequences recapitulates the original methylated or unmethylated status when integrated into the genome at an ectopic position. Mutation of Zfp57 or the hexanucleotide motifs led to loss of ZFP57 binding and DNA methylation of the transgene. Finally, we identified a sequence variant of the hexanucleotide motif that interacts with ZFP57 both in vivo and in vitro. The presence of multiple and closely located copies of ZFP57 motif variants emerges as a distinct characteristic that is required for the faithful maintenance of repressive epigenetic marks at ICRs and other ZFP57 binding
Aalborg Universitet A Flexible Frame Structure for 5 G Wide Area

In this paper we present a 5G frame structure designed for efficient support of users with highly diverse service requirements, including mobile broadband (MBB) data, mission critical communication (MCC), and massive machine communication (MMC). The proposed solution encompasses flexible multiplexing of users on a shared channel with dynamic adjustment of the transmission time interval (TTI) in coherence with the service requirements per link. This allows optimization of the fundamental trade-offs between spectral efficiency, latency, and reliability for each link. The frame structure is based on in-resource physical layer control signaling that follows the corresponding data transmission for each individual user. The principle of in-resource control signaling has numerous advantages; it presents a highly flexible and scalable solution, it allows joint beamforming for control and data transmission, as well as efficient time-frequency inter-cell interference coordination. Numerical results are presented, including simple comparison against LTE.
Deep Rule-Based Aerial Scene Classifier using High-Level Ensemble Feature Descriptor

In this paper, a new deep rule-based approach using high-level ensemble feature descriptor is proposed for aerial scene classification. By creating an ensemble of three pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks for feature extraction, the proposed approach is able to extract more discriminative representations from the local regions of aerial images. With a set of massively parallel IF…THEN rules built upon the prototypes identified through a self-organizing, nonparametric, transparent and highly human-interpretable learning process, the proposed approach is able to produce the state-of-the-art classification results on the unlabeled images outperforming the alternatives. Numerical examples on benchmark datasets demonstrate the strong performance of the proposed approach.
Estimates of numbers of masu salmon caught by recreational fishermen in the coastal area off Iburi, Hokkaido, Japan

: Recreational fishing for masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou has recently become popular in coastal areas of south-western Hokkaido, including the Iburi district. We sampled recreational party boats in the Iburi district in the winters of 1998–1999 and 1999–2000. Daily numbers of anglers and catches of masu salmon were provided by the captains of the fishing boats. On average, anglers caught approximately four masu salmon per day each year, and peak catches occurred from late January to early February. Estimated numbers (standard errors in parentheses) of masu salmon caught by recreational anglers in the Iburi district were 66 844 (11 685) in 1998–1999 and 57 454 (6559) in 1999–2000, equivalent to 12–13% of the total annual commercial catches of masu salmon in Hokkaido. High recreational catches illustrate the importance of evaluating this fishery in the assessment and management of masu salmon in Hokkaido.
Isolated Leg Monoparesis in a Patient with Atrial Fibrillation and Acute Ischemic Small Vessel Disease

Monoparesis is most commonly caused by dysfunction of the lower motor neurons (LMNs) which innervates the affected limb. This includes lesion affecting the anterior nuclei, ventral nerve roots, lumbosacral plexus, or peripheral nerve. Nevertheless, it can also be due to upper motor neuron lesion, typically seen in lesions of the spinal cord. In general, many conditions that cause hemiplegia, paraplegia or quadriplegia may begin as monoplegia. We illustrate an elderly patient with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and atrial fibrillation, who presented with acute monoparesis and radiological evidence suggestive of recent infarct and small vessel disease.
Omniscopes: Large area telescope arrays with only NlogN computational cost

We show that the class of antenna layouts for telescope arrays allowing cheap analysis hardware (with correlator cost scaling as NlogN rather than N{sup 2} with the number of antennas N) is encouragingly large, including not only previously discussed rectangular grids but also arbitrary hierarchies of such grids, with arbitrary rotations and shears at each level. We show that all correlations for such a 2D array with an n-level hierarchy can be efficiently computed via a fast Fourier transform in not two but 2n dimensions. This can allow major correlator cost reductions for science applications requiring exquisite sensitivity at widely separated angular scales, for example, 21 cm tomography (where short baselines are needed to probe the cosmological signal and long baselines are needed for point source removal), helping enable future 21 cm experiments with thousands or millions of cheap dipolelike antennas. Such hierarchical grids combine the angular resolution advantage of traditional array layouts with the cost advantage of a rectangular fast Fourier transform telescope. We also describe an algorithm for how a subclass of hierarchical arrays can efficiently use rotation synthesis to produce global sky maps with minimal noise and a well-characterized synthesized beam.

Assessing the quality of a student-generated question repository

We present results from a study that categorizes and assesses the quality of questions and explanations authored by students, in question repositories produced as part of the summative assessment in introductory physics courses over the past two years. Mapping question quality onto the levels in the cognitive domain of Bloom’s taxonomy, we nd that students produce questions of high quality. More than three-quarters of questions fall into categories beyond simple recall, in contrast to similar studies of student-authored content in dierent subject domains. Similarly, the quality of student-authored explanations for questions was also high, with approximately 60% of all explanations classied as being of high or outstanding quality. Overall, 75% of questions met

Creating space for interdisciplinary marine and coastal research: five dilemmas and suggested resolutions

SUMMARY Important changes are needed to disciplinary theories and methods to support interdisciplinary and integrated ocean and coastal management policies and implementation. This review argues that theories and methods should conform to a perspective that ocean management is a societal activity with diverse goals ideally informed by interdisciplinary information. The review focuses on the integrated coastal management (ICM) and marine ecosystem-based management (EBM) frameworks and the marine protected areas (MPA) management tool. It begins by suggesting that at present there is a notable imbalance in the degree of effort allocated to monitoring the ecological and social dimensions of ocean resource use and policy processes. Based on how Western society and an influential epistemic community construct ‘the environment’ and society's relation to the environment, natural sciences play an inordinately important role in the description of the problem and policy recommendations. The discourse advocating for a global networks of marine protected areas, without adequate consideration of society impacts and responses, represents an example of this imbalance. Rebalancing the contributions of scientific disciplines encounters various dilemmas with epistemological, methodological and sociological dimensions. The analysis concludes with suggestions for balancing ocean and coastal interdisciplinary research and reframing key issues, creating self reflexive and multidisciplinary research teams, and reworking educational programmes.
