Intermodal Green Alliance - Fostering Nodes

Focus on Nodes: Transport nodes as nucleus, start and ending point, for most of the freight transport. Freight transport in nodes has to be organized in a coordinated way by taking into account different transport scales.
 
Challenges throughout the CE-area:  Terminals and ports have difficulties to contain the quickly growing freight transport volumes (and thereby channelling these volumes onto sustainable transport modes), due to capacity restraints through planning restrictions. Communication gaps between different actors and stakeholder and a lack in harmonization, especially regarding the incorporation into TEN-T networks Lack of widely known solutions on a technical level, to make transhipment and last mile transport greener.

Objectives, Outputs and approach:
Facilitating the alignment between regional interest and EC recommendations on freight transport and regional development. Build capacity and ensure the transfer of knowledge on solutions and opportunities across authorities and freight stakeholders
Improving coordination among planning authorities and freight transport stakeholders to increase multimodal and sustainable freight solutions for deployment in the CE region, by harmonizing planning methods along the demands of spatial planning, as well as intermodal terminal processes and the demands of the immediate spatial surroundings of the terminals
Demonstrating and exchanging methods, processes and technology-implementation-approaches between intermodal terminals throughout the CE region. Thereby harmonizing methods and helping terminals to adapt to the future demands of growing freight transport flows and the necessity to organize terminal processes in a environmently-friendly way.

Innovation: Highly innovative, tangible demonstrators, harmonization of planning approaches.

Transnational Value: Cooperation and exchange of new technological approaches, methods, strategies and policies.
O efeito da temperatura do ar na mortalidade por doenças cerebrovasculares no Brasil entre 1996-2017

Cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) are one of the leading causes of mortality globally. Air temperature is one of the risk factors for CVD; however, few studies have investigated the relationship between air temperature and mortality from these diseases in Brazil. This time series study investigated the relationship between air temperature and CVD mortality in 10 microregions located across Brazil's five regions during the period 1996 to 2017 using mortality data from the national health information system, DATASUS and daily mean temperature data. The association between mean air temperature and mortality from CVD was measured using generalized additive models with Poisson distribution and relative and attributable risks were estimated together with 95% confidence intervals using distributed lag non-linear models and a 14-day lag. There were 531,733 deaths from CVD during the study period, 21,220 of which (11,138-30,546) were attributable to air temperature. Minimum mortality temperatures ranged from 20.1ºC in Curitiba to 29.6ºC in Belém. Associations between suboptimal air temperatures and increased risk of death from CVD were observed in all of Brazil's five regions. Relative risk from the cold was highest in Manaus (RR 1.53; 1.22-1.91) and Campo Grande (RR 1.52; 1.18-1.94), while relative risk from heat was highest in Manaus (RR 1.75; 1.35-2.26) and Brasília (RR 1.36; 1.15-1.60).As doenças cerebrovasculares (DCV) estão entre as principais causas de mortalidade no mundo e a temperatura do ar é um dos seus fatores de risco, embora sua relação seja pouco estudada no Brasil. Este artigo objetiva investigar a relação entre temperatura do ar e mortalidade por DCV em 10 microrregiões nas cinco grandes regiões brasileiras. Foi realizado estudo de séries temporais com os óbitos diários por DCV e a média diária de temperatura do ar no período de 1996 a 2017. Foram utilizando dados do Departamento de Informática do SUS (DATASUS) e modelos aditivos generalizados com distribuição de Poisson e os riscos relativos e atribuíveis foram estimados (com intervalo de confiança de 95%) até uma defasagem de 14 dias com modelos DLNM (distributed lag non-linear models). No período ocorreram 531.733 óbitos por DCV nestas microrregiões, dos quais 21.220 (11.138-30.546) atribuíveis à temperatura do ar. As temperaturas de mortalidade mínima variaram entre 20,1°C em Curitiba a 29,6°C em Belém. Foram observadas associações entre temperaturas não ótimas do ar e aumento no risco de óbito em todas as cinco regiões brasileiras, destacando Manaus com risco relativo (RR) 1,53 (1,22-1,91) e Campo Grande com RR 1,52 (1,18-1,94) no frio, e Manaus com RR 1,75 (1,35-2,26) e Brasília com RR 1,36 (1,15-1,60) no calor.
Speed-path analysis for multi-path failed latches with random variation

In processor and high-end chip designs, path delay difference between pre-silicon and post-silicon have become an important issue. Identifying the factors for the difference with speed limiting paths is required to achieve target performance. A statistical diagnosis framework, called speed-path analysis, identifies them. Speed-path analysis uses fail data from at-speed delay test with silicon samples. Since at-speed delay test activates multiple paths simultaneously, it makes many failed latches with multiple sensitized paths. We will refer to these failed latches as multi-path failed latches. Previous works have not discussed how to handle multi-path failed latches because they are discussions under the assumption that path delay differences are obtained correctly. Generating additional test patterns to activate a single path for each latch is a very time-consuming task. Without using multi-path failed latches from at-speed delay test, the fatal factors for path delay differences with speed limiting paths can be missed because the number of non multi-path failed latches is small. This paper proposes methods for handling multi-path failed latches. By experiments based on a test processor design, we can deal with 12% of the timing-critical latches adopted as failed latches while 1% using only non multi-path failed latches.
Evidenced based management of hearing impairments:  public health pοlicy making based on fusing big data analytics and simulation.

Hearing Loss (HL) is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases and the 5th cause of disability. HL increases the risk of cognitive decline, mental illness, and depression, and leads to social isolation, unemployment/early retirement, loss of income and work discrimination. 
The pre-eminent management strategy for HL is the provision of Hearing Aids (HAs), although their use is often problematic, costly and with poor overall benefits.
The holistic management of HL requires appropriate public health policies for HL prevention, early diagnosis, long-term treatment and rehabilitation; detection and prevention of cognitive decline; protection from noise; and socioeconomic inclusion of HL patients. However, currently the evidential basis for forming such policies is limited. Holistic HL management policies require the analysis of heterogeneous data, including HA usage, noise (TTS) episodes, audiological, physiological, cognitive, clinical and medication, personal, behavioural, life style, occupational and environmental data.

EVOTION has access to big datasets of such data from five different organisations and will support their continuous update by real time data produced by sensors and HAs used by HL patients. 

To utilise these data in forming holistic HL management policies, EVOTION aims to develop an integrated platform supporting: (a) the analysis of the above datasets to enable the identification of causal and other effects amongst them, (b) policy decision making focusing on the selection of effective interventions related to the holistic management of HL, based on the outcomes of (a) and the formulation of related public health policies, and (c) the specification and monitoring of such policies in a sustainable manner. To achieve this aim, EVOTION also brings together public health policy organisations, experts and authorities supporting the formation of the targeted policies and the validation of the EVOTION support for it.
ODOMETER SYSTEM FOR A MOBILE APPARATUS

An odometer system for a mobile apparatus (1) is described. The odometer system comprises a distance determining device (2, 30) configured to transmit a beam of radiation (13) from a stationary measurement reference point (3) remote from the mobile apparatus (1) to a target surface (4) at the mobile apparatus (1) and to determine, from reflected radiation (15) of the beam (13) off the target surface (4), a measurement value of an instantaneous separation distance (D m ) between the target surface (4) and the stationary measurement reference point (3). The system further comprises data receiving means (7', 9) at the mobile apparatus (1) and communication means (7) for wirelessly communicating the measurement value to the data receiving means (7', 9) at the mobile apparatus (1). The data receiving means (7') comprises offsetting or zeroing means (10, 9) for identifying a reference start point (21) for measuring a travelled distance (Dt) of the mobile apparatus (1) along a path, and for determining the travelled distance (Dt), using subsequently received measurement values, with respect to the identified start point (21).
Students Exploration on Campus Legibility

Abstract University Campuses are significant functional areas of cities. Successfully designed campuses help to balance university's academic, research and service missions with its educational services and raise learning performances. Campuses’ high level of design and planning service has close relation with its legibility. Kevin Lynch, one of the leading theorists who had research on place legibility used cognitive mapping as a tool and defined five fundamental elements, have great influence on place legibility. In this study, Black Sea Technical University is selected as the research area and its legibility level has determined. Aim of this study is to define the legibility level of the campus by students perceptions. In this context, Lynch's five fundamental legibility elements directed students to generate cognitive maps of the campus, and each student's perception level on campus area is determined. Respondent group include students from Architecture, and Urban and Regional Planning departments have contributed this study. End product is the analysis of the cognitive maps, produced by each student, based on legibility elements. The result of the analysis legibility map of the campus has created, and the legibility level of the campus area is determined. Following, the results are classified as the areas with high, medium and low cognition. Finally, possibility of raising university's educational and research activities through design are discussed.
Burden of influenza, healthcare seeking behaviour and hygiene measures during the A(H1N1)2009 pandemic in France: a population based study

Abstract Background Influenza surveillance systems do not allow the identification of the true burden of illness caused by influenza in the community because they are restricted to consulting cases. A study was conducted to estimate the incidence and the burden of self-defined influenza, and to describe healthcare seeking behavior for self-defined influenza during the A(H1N1)2009 pandemic in the French population. Methods We conducted a random-based retrospective cross-sectional telephone survey between May 2009 and April 2010 among a random sample of the French population. Results For the 10 076 people included, 107 episodes of self-defined influenza were reported. The annual incidence of self-defined influenza was estimated at 13 942 cases per 100 000 inhabitants (CI95% 10 947 – 16 961), 62.1% (CI95% 50.5 – 72.5) of cases consulted a physician and 11.3% (CI95% 5.5 - 21.7) used a face mask. Following recommendations, 37.5% (CI95% 35.5 – 39.5) of people in the survey reported washing their hands more often during the pandemic season, and there was a positive association with being vaccinated against A(H1N1)2009 influenza, being a women, being a child (&lt; 15 years) or living in a big city (≥ 100 000 inhabitants). Conclusions Self-defined influenza causes a significant burden of illness in the French population and is a frequent cause for consultation. These results allow a more accurate interpretation of influenza surveillance data and an opportunity to adapt future health education messages.
Leg stretching apparatus

Disclosed are two separate leg supporting members which are independently pivotally connected to a base assembly. At their pivotal connection with the base assembly they are further provided with a disk assembly having a cable attached thereto. The cable from each leg supporting member is attached through guide means to a crank assembly which, during operation, forces the leg supporting members apart stretching the legs of a user of a device into a "split" position. The crank assembly housing is pivotally mounted such that when the housing is moved forward and/or rearward, the cable path of both cables is lengthened a small amount, providing the user with a controlled minute additional stretching movement. The leg supporting members during non-use are retractable partially into the base assembly and a torso retaining seat back assembly can be folded flat. The crank housing assembly can also be folded down on top of the seat back assembly providing a very compact storage configuration. In a preferred embodiment, a friction brake device is affixed to the crank assembly such that the user can straighten his legs away from the "split" position, thus strengthening his leg muscles as well as stretching them.

Low-power signal integrity trainings for multi-clock source-synchronous memory systems

Advanced high-speed multi-clock source-synchronous systems such as GDDR5 employ different trainings to ensure the signal integrity for high bandwidth applications. Through these trainings proper timing relationships among data and clocks are defined in the initialization phase. In this paper, a multi-clock synchronization training using phase interpolator (PI)-based phase-locked loop (PLL) architecture is proposed, which consumes 11.7 times less power and 27 times less area than other works. In addition, an adaptive equalization training is introduced for a GDDR5 memory system to compensate for inter-symbol interference (ISI). For the low power design, the equalizers are applied only in the memory controller utilizing the existing GDDR5 memory interface. This system architecture aimed of low-power design is verified by using least mean square (LMS) and pilot signal/peak detection. Results show that LMS algorithm improves the vertical and horizontal eye opening by more than 30% and 10%, respectively.

CARBURETOR VACUUM SHUTOFF CONTROL VALVE

A carburetor vacuum shutoff control valve for motor vehicles includes a snap-action spring which senses the the sudden vacuum increase in the carburetor each time the vehicle decelerates. The spring opens the valve during deceleration to allow air to pass through the valve from the atmosphere and immediately prevent the normal fuel mixture from being pulled in through either the idle or high-speed carburetor jets. Thus, during deceleration no gasoline is used, resulting in better fuel economy and no exhaust gas or crankcase emissions.
GAMUT MAXIMIZING BLACK GENERATION FOR PRINTERS

Gamut maximizing black generation for printers. Generating device dependent data from device independent data uses both chromatic curves and achromatic curves, which are independently controllable and which each include a color space curve and a black curve. The achromatic and chromatic curves are generated using a set of input parameters. Once the curves are generated, the final color space values are generated using an interpolation between the achromatic curves and the chromatic curves.

Innovative technical solutions for improved train dynamics and operation of longer freight trains

DYNAFREIGHT stands for Innovative technical solutions for improved train DYNAmics and operation of longer FREIGHt Trains. The project will provide inputs for the development of the next railway freight propulsion concepts within S2R. Two main areas will be addressed: 
1. Freight running gear for locomotives: DYNAFREIGHT will design and develop the necessary concepts that will allow a locomotive freight bogie to reduce wheel and track wear, to have lower noise and lower LCC, by focusing on:
• Materials with freight vehicle applicability that allow a lighter bogie frame.
• Noise optimized wheelsets and absorbing structures to reduce running gear related noise.
• Passive and mechatronic systems for radial steering, improving running performances compared to conventional bogies. Reduction of wheel wear and damage, improved traction in curves and reduced resistance to motion in sharp curves will be achieved. 
• Monitoring of the most maintenance cost-intensive bogie elements, reducing LCC and improving the reliability and availability of the locomotive.
2. Operation of long freight trains: following the outcomes of MARATHON, DYNAFREIGHT will prepare the path for regular operations of long freight trains:
• Defining functional, technical and homologation requirements for a radio remote controlled system.
• Proposing safety precautions in train configuration and brake application by simulating the longitudinal forces and the derailment risk of long freight trains.
• Identifying infrastructure adaptions for the operation of long freight trains.
By the end of the project, the main achievements will be:
• Improved performances: traction, speed, running dynamics and wheel/rail efforts 
• Reduced rail freight noise at the source
• Enhance capacity/traffic throughput with the operation of longer trains
• Reduced of operation and maintenance costs (reduce wheel and rail wear, smarter maintenance, etc.)
