Streamlines in the Two-Dimensional Spreading of a Thin Fluid Film: Blowing and Suction Velocity Proportional to the Height

The two-dimensional spreading under gravity of a thin fluid film with suction (fluid leak-off) or blowing (fluid injection) at the base is considered. The thin fluid film approximation is imposed. The height of the thin film satisfies a nonlinear diffusion equation with a source/sink term. The Lie point symmetries of the nonlinear diffusion equation are derived and exist, which provided the fluid velocity at the base, vn satisfies a first order linear partial differential equation. The general form has algebraic time dependence while a special case has exponential time dependence. The solution in which vn is proportional to the height of the thin film is studied. The width of the base always increases with time even for suction while the height decreases with time for sufficiently weak blowing. The streamlines of the fluid flow inside the thin film are plotted by first solving a cubic equation. For sufficiently weak blowing there is a dividing streamline, emanating from the stagnation point on the centre line which separates the fluid flow into two regions, a lower region consisting of rising fluid and dominated by fluid injection at the base and an upper region consisting of descending fluid and dominated by spreading due to gravity. For sufficiently strong blowing the lower region expands to completely fill the whole thin film.
Europarl-ASR: A Large Corpus of Parliamentary Debates for Streaming ASR Benchmarking and Speech Data Filtering/Verbatimization

We introduce Europarl-ASR, a large speech and text corpus of parliamentary debates including 1 300 hours of transcribed speeches and 70 million tokens of text in English extracted from European Parliament sessions. The training set is labelled with the Parliament’s non-fully-verbatim official transcripts, timealigned. As verbatimness is critical for acoustic model training, we also provide automatically noise-filtered and automatically verbatimized transcripts of all speeches based on speech data filtering and verbatimization techniques. Additionally, 18 hours of transcribed speeches were manually verbatimized to build reliable speaker-dependent and speaker-independent development/test sets for streaming ASR benchmarking. The availability of manual non-verbatim and verbatim transcripts for dev/test speeches makes this corpus useful for the assessment of automatic filtering and verbatimization techniques. This paper describes the corpus and its creation, and provides off-line and streaming ASR baselines for both the speaker-dependent and speaker-independent tasks using the three training transcription sets. The corpus is publicly released under an open licence.
Parallel Evolution of Allometric Trajectories of Trophic Morphology between Sympatric Morphs of Mesoamerican Astyanax (Characidae)

Parallel evolution of the body shape and trophic-related traits has been detected between sympatric pairs of lake-dwelling characin fishes in Mesoamerica. Here, we evaluated the variation in and the ontogenetic allometric trajectories of trophic morphology between sympatric Astyanax morphs (elongate and deep-body) in two geographic systems, Lake Catemaco (Mexico) and San Juan River basin (Nicaragua and Costa Rica). Using geometric morphometrics, we determined the shape variation and disparity in the premaxillary bone, and the patterns of allometric trajectories between morphs in each system. We found a higher differentiation and disparity in the premaxilla shape between morphs from San Juan River basin than between the Lake Catemaco ones. We found shared (parallel evolution) patterns of divergence between systems, which included allometric trajectories showing a positive correlation between the premaxilla shape and log centroid size, as well as trajectories being extended in the elongated-body morph (truncated in the deep-body morph). Regarding the unique patterns of divergence, we recovered parallel allometric trajectories between morphs from Lake Catemaco, while the San Juan River basin morphs showed divergent trajectories. Our results are congruent with the hypothesis that divergence in trophic morphology can be considered a triggering factor in the divergence in the genus Astyanax from Mesoamerica.

Prevalence and survival of Listeria monocytogenes
 in various types of cheese-A review

26 Since the publication of Regulation (EC) N°2073/2005, RTE food allowing the development of Listeria 27 monocytogenes, including cheese, have to be exempt of the pathogen in 25g. This review was carried out in 28 order to gather studies on the prevalence of the pathogen in various types of cheese in Europe, while also 29 including data about the situation in other continents. Given that Regulation (EC) N°2073/2005 distinguishes 30 cheeses allowing or not the survival of L. monocytogenes based on pH and water activity (aw), the review also 31 focuses on the determinants of this growth/no growth in the same types of cheese. 32 33

Effect of brassinolide application on antioxidant characteristics and endogenous hormones of Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvelev under different light intensity regimes

Different light and shade intensities are the main constraints to achieve potential biomass accumulation in Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvelev. An experiment was conducted to explain the physiochemical and morphological adversity triggered by various light intensities. Adverse impacts were lessened with exogenous brassinolide (BR). Treatments consisted of 100% natural light (T0), 100% natural light + 0.1 mg L-1 BR (BT0), light shade (70% natural light) (T1), light shade + BR (70% natural light + 0.1 mg L-1 BR) (BT1), moderate shade (50% natural light) (T2), and moderate shade + BR (50% natural light + 0.1 mg L-1 BR) (BT2). These were completely randomized design treatments with five replicates. Results showed that dry biomass production and endogenous hormone levels (abscisic acid [ABA], zeatin riboside [ZR], gibberellic acid [GA], and indole acetic acid [IAA]) increased, while osmolyte accumulation (soluble sugars and proteins, free amino acids, and proline), antioxidant activity (peroxidase [POD], superoxide dismutase [SOD], and catalase [CAT]), and lipid peroxidation decreased under shade at T0. Treatment T1 depicted the most promising results for these attributes. However, biomass accumulation (33%-56%), osmotic substances (soluble sugars,13%-38%; soluble proteins, 9%-41%; free amino acids, 8%-16%; proline, 11%-41%), and antioxidant enzyme activities (POD, 11%-14%; SOD, 3%-33%; CAT, 4%-23%) increased. On the other hand, lipid peroxidation was reduced by BR application, as indicated by decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) content (7%-31%) and relative conductivity (7%-19%) under both natural and shade conditions. Likewise, the biosynthesis of ABA (2%-22%), ZR (11%-24%), and GA (30%-50%) improved under exogenous BR compared with the control. The IAA contents (22%-28%) decreased under foliar-applied BR compared with the control. Results suggested that light to moderate shade improved the biomass production and physiological performance of L. chinensis, while BR application exhibited further improvement.
Incorporating Uncertainty in the Economic Evaluation of Capital Investments for Water-Use Efficiency Improvements

Long-run investments in water-use efficiency (WUE) are risky, particularly where water is required as a secure input. State-of-nature representations of supply outcomes provide an increased understanding of the vulnerability of capital and water users to adverse events. Using Californian data, we couple cost-benefit analysis to a state-contingent analysis approach to explore the riskiness of WUE investment payoffs and cash-flow outcomes when frequencies of states of nature change over the investment course. Critically, this allows us to represent decision-maker adaptation in the face of risk and uncertainty and the role of subsidy policy in those decisions.
Perception Survey of Virtual Reality Simulation with Malocclusion Models

The purpose of this study was to develop prototype of virtual reality(VR) simulation with malocclusion models and evaluate its applicability. Task abilities, task completion time, and a satisfaction survey were compared between dentist trainees and dental students. Participants were instructed to observe virtual malocclusion models and then performed three tasks to diagnose the type of malocclusion, determine clinical findings and develop treatment plans. Their satisfaction with the simulation experience were evaluated using a questionnaire containing five questions. Task abilities of trainees related to clinical features and treatment plans were significantly higher than that of students(p < 0.01). In both groups, the task completion time for the second case was significantly reduced compared to that for the first case(p < 0.01). The satisfaction survey showed high scores and positive responses for this simulation in both groups. If the prototype of VR simulation is continuously advanced, it will be applicable for orthodontic education in pediatric dentistry.
Electrospinning preparation of a large surface area, hierarchically porous, and interconnected carbon nanofibrous network using polysulfone as a sacrificial polymer for high performance supercapacitors

Carbon nanofibrous mats (CNFMs) are prepared by electrospinning of blended precursor of polyacrylonitrile and polysulfone (PSF) followed by pre-oxidation stabilization and carbonization. Addition of PSF as a sacrificial polymer leads to CNFMs with high surface area, large numbers of micropores and mesopores, good degree of carbonization, and interconnected fibrous network, due to the high decomposition temperature, release of SO2 during decomposition, and large amount of carbon residue of PSF during carbonization. The electrochemical characterization shows that the CNFM electrode has a specific capacitance of 272 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1 with 74% of the specific capacitance retained at 50 A g−1 in 2.0 M KOH electrolyte. The CNFM electrodes have excellent cycling durability with 100% capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles.
The Aromatization of Propene Via Nano-Size HZSM-5

Zeolite (ZSM) catalysts are known to convert small-size alkenes, e.g., propene, into aromatic hydrocarbons, specifically benzene, toluene and xylenes (BTX), with both high efficiency and specificity. The efficiency of conventional and hierarchical nano-size ZSM-5 for propene aromatization was compared in this study using a Design of Experiments (DOE) approach combined with detailed product analysis. Contrary to our expectations, the former showed a significantly greater BTX yield than the latter. Analysis of the obtained data by DOE and additional experiments with soybean oil cracking using both catalyst types indicated that a reason for the observed reduced activity of nano-scale zeolites may be tenacious water adsorption, which may reduce the catalyst active site availability to the substrate.
Improving Multilingual Transformer Transducer Models by Reducing Language Confusions

In end-to-end multilingual speech recognition, the hypotheses in one language could include word tokens from other languages. Language confusions happen even more frequently when language identifier (LID) is not present during inference. In this paper, we explore to reduce language confusions without using LID in model inference by creating models with multiple output heads and use sequence probability to select the correct head for output hypotheses. We propose head grouping to merge several language outputs into one head to save runtime cost. Head groups are decided by the distances among language clusters learned through language embedding vectors to separate confusable languages apart. We further propose prediction network sharing for languages from the same family. By jointly applying head grouping and prediction network sharing, training data from the same family languages is better shared while confusable languages are divided into different heads to reduce language confusions. Our experiments demonstrate that our multilingual transformer transducer models based on multi-head outputs achieve on average 7.8% and 10.9% relative word error rate reductions without LID being used in inference from one-head baseline model with affordably increased runtime cost on 10 European languages.
Glaucoma screening skills among general ophthalmologists - How general should it be?

Purpose: To compare the glaucoma assessment skills among general ophthalmologists in their referral patients over 5 years. Methods: This was a retrospective auditing of the electronic medical record database. Details of consecutive new glaucoma patients seen in the glaucoma services of a tertiary eye care institute in 2013 and 2018 were collected. Details of each patient included the clinical presentation, baseline intra-ocular pressure (IOP), type and severity of glaucoma, referral details, gonioscopy, HVF (Humphrey visual field) data, and the number of medications. Statistical tests used were the Chi-square test and T test using SPSS version 22. Results: Of 28,886 medical records screened, 211 and 568 new glaucoma patients were retrieved in 2013 and 2018, respectively. The patients presenting in 2018 were younger (58.1 ± 15.4 years) at presentation than in 2013 (65.6 ± 15.2 years), P < 0.01, and also had higher baseline IOP (IOP ≥40 mm Hg was found in 9.5% in 2018 versus 2.4% in 2013; P < 0.01). The percentage of eyes with presenting visual acuity worse than 20/400 or 20/600 was higher in the patients presenting in 2018 (22.2% vs. 15.1%; P = 0.03). Although primary glaucoma predominated in both periods, the number of eyes referred to as disc suspects showed an increase in 2018 (4.7% to 14.4%; P < 0.01). Among 195 and 517 referrals in 2013 and 2018, respectively, the documentation of clinical findings were dismally poor in both the groups in terms of absent gonioscopy (99% vs. 98.2%, P = 0.4), absent disc details (89.6% vs. 91%, P = 0.5), or absent visual field analysis (79.1% vs. 74.8%, P = 0.2). However, the missing IOP values were significantly better in the latter year (77.3% vs. 57.2%; P < 0.01). Conclusion: The increase in the number of new glaucoma patients and referrals did not show a corresponding improvement in documentation of findings except for IOP recording among general ophthalmologists. Hence, we need to re-emphasize the training of general ophthalmologists on basic glaucoma evaluation to improve their referral ability.
“If you fulfill your promise, I will be an asset for you”: exploring the relationship between psychological contract fulfillment and individual ambidexterity

PurposeHealthcare is a vital sector in any economy, and the healthcare industry employees should be treated well. Work policies and practices shape the psychological contract (PC) of an individual. The purpose of this paper is to explore healthcare employees' PC fulfillment from the lenses of work practices and how it affects their ambidextrous behavior (explorative and exploitative activities). Design/methodology/approachThis study follows a mix-method research design. First, the authors conducted telephonic interviews to enlist the PC fulfillment items, and after checking the reliability and validity, the authors conducted the survey using a descriptive research design. The sampling method was snowball sampling, where 786 respondents from 6 hospitals were surveyed, and AMOS (analysis of a moment structures) 20 was used for the structural equation modeling (SEM). FindingsFor the healthcare sector employees, a sense of belongingness has contributed the highest in exploration activities followed by work–life balance, rewards and managerial support. Work–life balance has contributed highest in exploitation activities, followed by a sense of belongingness, teamwork and managerial support.Research limitations/implicationsThe study offers important implications for researchers and employers of the healthcare sector and highlights the significance of the PC fulfillment, leading to the employees' ambidextrous behavior. There was no prior work that had empirically proved the relationship between PC fulfillment and ambidextrous behavior.Originality/valueIn the study, an attempt was made to identify the healthcare industry's work practices and how that is associated with explorative and exploitive ambidextrous behavior. The paper instigates the imperative deliberation on PC fulfillment and ambidextrous behavior for healthcare sector employees.
Supporting Nickel To Replace Platinum on Zeolite Nanosponges for Catalytic Hydroisomerization of n-Dodecane

Hydroisomerization of linear paraffins to branched isomers is an important petrochemical process, which commonly uses a microporous zeolite catalyst supported with Pt metal nanoparticles. Although attempts were made in the past to find an alternative to costly Pt, replacement with low-cost metals was not successful for conventional bulk zeolites, due to the low metal dispersion resulting in poor catalytic performance. Here, we demonstrate that Ni can replace Pt when it is supported on zeolites with uniform mesopores. Ni-supported MFI-, *MRE-, and TON-type zeolites possessing mesopores showed the same or even better catalytic performance in comparison to that of Pt-supported conventional MFI, *MRE, and TON zeolites, respectively. The Ni-supported zeolites exhibited even better branched isomer yields, despite low Ni loading. This result is ascribed to the confinement or sandwiching effect of Ni nanoparticles by the mesopore walls in the zeolites, which stabilizes the highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles.
Non-invasive aberration correction and adaptive ultrasound imaging with a time reversal virtual array

Abstract Strong acoustical aberrations such as induced by multi-mode waveguides or the human skull can significantly reduce the quality of or prevent effective ultrasoundbased imaging. We propose a novel non-invasive calibration method that utilizes two independent acoustical accesses and a time reversal virtual array (TRVA) for adaptive wavefront correction. Numerical characterization and a model experiment utilizing this method show an improvement of the lateral resolution and the peak to background ratio by up to 35% and 10% respectively.
Cognitive Penetration and Cognitive Realism

The paper addresses the issue of theory-ladenness of observation/experimentation. Motivated by a naturalistic reading of Thomas Kuhn's insights into the same topic, I draw on cognitive neuroscience (predictive coding under Free Energy Principle) to scrutinise theory-ladenness. I equate theory-ladenness with the cognitive penetrability of perceptual inferences and argue that strong theory-ladenness prevails only under uncertain circumstances. This understanding of theory-ladenness is in line with Thomas Kuhn's view on the same subject as well as a cognitive version of modest realism rather than downright antirealism.
Impact of Elimination of Dividend Distribution Tax on Indian Corporate Firms Amid COVID Disruptions

Economic fallouts from COVID-19 have been unprecedented across all industries, with a handful of exceptions. The present study attempts to capture the impact of dividend distribution tax elimination, introduced through the Indian Finance Act 2020, on corporate dividend behavior in India. It explores the determinants of dividend payouts, changing payout decisions, dividend behavior of regular payers, and the prevalence of factors associated with changing payouts. Out of the top 1000 firms, based on their market capitalization at the Bombay Stock Exchange, 509 non-financial firms pursuing consistent dividend payments from 2015 to 2019 are analyzed. The study also examines the dividend behavior of regular payers exhibiting a stable or step-up payout from 2015 to 2019. COVID’s impact on the firm’s financial performance and sentiments seems to dominate, suppressing investors’ expectations of enhanced payouts associated with dividend distribution tax advantages, with considerable reductions in payouts and omissions shown by regular and irregular payers in 2020 and 2021 vis-à-vis the preceding years. The findings signify that the dividend payouts of sample firms are positively associated with the firms’ size, MBV ratio, and past dividends, and negatively allied with free cash flows and the EBITDA margin. Regular payers are observed to be more sensitive to past dividends. The study lends credence to the conservatism and prevalence of signaling and catering theories in the dividend behavior of Indian corporate firms.
Peripheral perception as discriminant factor of tactical behaviour efficiency of young soccer players

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to verify whether there are differences in peripheral perception according to the tactical behaviour efficiency of young soccer players with similar formal practice time and competitive level. The sample comprised eighty male soccer players from Brazilian soccer clubs. The Vienna Test System was used to assess players’ peripheral perception. The System of Tactical Assessment in Soccer was used to assess players’ tactical behaviour efficiency. Participants were categorised as less and more tactically efficient, and both groups were compared according to their peripheral perception. We found that the tactically more efficient players displayed higher levels of peripheral perception regarding the visual field, reaction time, and tracking deviation measures, in comparison to the tactically less efficient ones. It is concluded that even under similar practice and competitive conditions, there are differences in peripheral perception between players, according to their tactical behaviour efficiency. Our findings suggest that tactically more efficient players display superior levels of peripheral perception and, consequently, better game performance.
