Preparation of l-threonine

L-Threonine is prepared by cultivating Escherichia coli A.T.C.C. 13070 or 13071 under submerged aerobic conditions at temperatures between 20 and 40 DEG C. and at a pH of between 6 and 8 in an aqueous nutrient medium comprising sorbitol or mannitol, sources of nitrogen, magnesium, potassium and trace metals together with from 100 to 140 mg. of diaminopimelic acid per litre of nutrient medium when E. coli A.T.C.C. 13071 is used, or with from 100 to 250 m. of diaminopimelic acid and up to 100 mg. of L-methionine per litre of nutrient medium when E. coli A.T.C.C. 13070 is used. Yields are improved by the addition of Llycine, sucrose, cornsteep liquor and/or crude beet molasses to the nutrient medium. The product is purified by ion exchange techniques, small amounts of glycine, serine and glutamic acid being separated as by-products. Specification 610,527 is referred to.
SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF TANGENTIAL DIGGING FORCES OF THE BUCKET WHEEL EXCAVATOR SCHRS 1320 FOR DIFFERENT TERRACES

Researches in the field of economy of control of mining processes of minerals are continually met with a number of unsolved and newly arising problems. New deposits of brown coal are located at greater depths than before and are more difficult to mine. Problems in the field of rock mining stem from the greater diversity of rocks in mining, and it results in more difficult mining conditions. On the other hand, even greater demands are made to decrease the economic demand of mining. Current research is aimed at the most optimal utilization of energy provided on the bucket wheel of excavators, such that the energy demand of the mining process decreases, whilst preserving maximum performance. These requirements place greater demands on the precision of planning of mining and maximum economic efficiency. The presented article illustrates the possibilities of the utilization of Sobol sensitivity analysis during the investigation of the influence of the parameters of mining processes on tangential digging forces. Analyses are carried out for the mining process of bucket wheel excavator SchRs 1320. For purposes of the study, detailed measurements of operational parameters were performed on the excavator during a whole work cycle.
Mmwave communications in the built environments

The foreseen exponential growth of mobile data traffic will not be uniform across geographical areas, but is mainly concentrated in hot spots that are usually located in the built environments (BEs) such as central business districts, stations, airports, stadiums, dense urban environments, etc. This poses considerable challenges that we believe can be solved by ultra dense deployment of millimetre-wave (mmW) small-cells (SCs) in conjunction with massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) in 5G and beyond 5G (B5G) wireless networks. However, there are a number of research challenges that need to be addressed for a successful deployment of 5G/B5G wireless networks: even if the theoretical background of massive MIMO is by now rather complete, the actual performance characterization and measurements of mmW antenna arrays has not yet been fully addressed at either the component or system level; mmW radio channel measurements have
been performed but with limited time delay resolution, single antennas and over single radio links; and mmW bands have been considered for mobile communications, but the level of detail and diversity of BEs necessary for meaningful mmW SC deployment has not been fully exploited. Therefore, we propose here a research approach that combines the three disruptive key enabling technologies for 5G/B5G with the aim to answer fundamental questions that are still not well understood. 

Hence, the research objectives of the project are as follows: 
• Develop and test mmW MIMO and massive MIMO antennas.
• Characterize and model radio propagation channel at mmW bands for typical BEs (offices, homes, stations, airports).
• Theoretically analyse and optimise massive MIMO mmW SC performance in the BEs.
• Integrate massive MIMO mmW SC networks with their operating environments.
• Develop methods to retrofit existing buildings and to design new buildings for efficient high-capacity wireless communications in the BEs.
The Lens of Intrinsic Skill Atoms: A Method for Gameful Design

The idea that game design can inspire the design of motivating, enjoyable interactive systems has a long history in human-computer interaction. It currently experiences a renaissance as gameful design, often implemented through gamification, the use of game design elements in nongame contexts. Yet there is little research-based guidance on designing gameful systems. This article therefore reviews existing methods and identifies challenges and requirements for gameful design. It introduces a gameful design method that uses skill atoms and design lenses to identify challenges inherent in a user’s goal pursuit and restructure them to afford gameplay-characteristic motivating, enjoyable experiences. Two case studies illustrate the method. The article closes by outlining how gameful design might inform experience-driven design more generally.
CONTROL SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC DOORS

Secure system comprised of a microcontroller (1) which reads the opening (LA) and closing (LC) orders, (and the speed (V) of the mobile), a closing order relay (2) controlled by a transistor (5) and an opening relay (3) controlled by a transistor (6), both relays and transistors (5 and 6) being supplied by another transistor (7). The system supervises periodically by means of clock signals generated by the microcontroller (1) the status of the switching transistors, and controls that the orders given are definitive and coincide with the action achieved; if that is not the case, the system enters in an internal stopping routine of the microcontroller (1), cutting off the traction of the motor, and positioning the contacts of the relays in a secure position which prevents the inadvertent opening of an automatic door. In the case of a failure of the microcontroller, the relays are deactived.
Misconstruction Of Love And Lack Of Self-Esteem In Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye.

In The Bluest Eye, Toni Morrison explores a lot of themes, among which the misconstruction of love and the lack of self-esteem that are rampant in African American communities. Family love is crucial for the right emotional and psychological development of the offspring. When the parents are not virtuous and loving, the children will certainly grow up without being proud of who they are. They are also likely to lose their self-esteems, while longing for the white dominant culture in a racist society. That is the case of Pecola who craves for blue eyes because they represent the signs of real beauty that girls like her, who are ‘’ugly’’ dream of possessing. Pecola is so traumatized by the lack of family love and pride that she believes that she is less worth than the other girls. The consequences of that misconstruction of love and the lack of self-esteem have led the little girl to insanityin the racist white dominant American society.
Maximizing the upscaling and replication potential of high level urban transformation strategies

MAtchUP project aims at strengthening the planning processes for urban transformation, consolidating the benefits of deploying large scale demonstration projects of innovative technologies in the energy, mobility and ICT sectors, by means of substantially improved models for replication and upscaling, based on impacts evaluation, and ensuring the bankability of the solutions by means of innovative business models, which lead to achieve real deployment further than the pilots carried out in the lighthouse cities. With this, it is sought a high penetration of the validated technologies in those cities less prepared to adopt very innovative solutions and formalize it in a standard commitment, accompanied by capacity building strategies, to guarantee at least medium term implementation.

The expected results will be achieved working in parallel in demonstration and upscaling/replication levels, so the lighthouse cities (Valencia-Spain, Dresden-Germany and Antalya-Turkey) and followers (Ostend-Belgium, Herzliya-Israel, Skopje-FYROM and Kerava-Finland) will assume a huge commitment in this project in order to:  
- deploy innovative solutions in the energy, mobility and ICT sectors with a strong monitoring program to validate all of them, 
- develop very rigorous upscaling and replication plans that will be the basis to update at least the SEAPs/SECAPs, that are the major standard commitment at European level that a city can assume in terms of city transformation, and other existing city plans as Sustainable Mobility Plans or Digital Agendas.
Timing of unstructured transitions of control in automated driving

With automated driving systems, drivers may still be expected to resume full control of the vehicle. While structured transitions where drivers are given warning are desirable, it is critical to benchmark how drivers perform when transition of control is unstructured and occurs without advanced warning. In this study, we observed how participants (N=27) in a driving simulator performed after they were subjected to an emergency loss of automation. We tested three transition time conditions, with an unstructured transition of vehicle control occurring 2 seconds, 5 seconds, or 8 seconds before the participants encountered a road hazard that required the drivers' intervention. Few drivers in the 2 second condition were able to safely negotiate the road hazard situation, while the majority of drivers in 5 or 8 second conditions were able to navigate the hazard safely. Similarly, drivers in 2 second condition rated the vehicle to be less likeable than drivers in 5 and 8 second conditions. From the study results, we are able to narrow in on a minimum amount of time in which drivers can take over the control of vehicle safely and comfortably from the automated system in the advent of an impending road hazard.
Impact of high level penetration of wind turbines on power system transient stability

One of the most important aspects in power systems concerns their capability of maintaining their stability under large disturbances. System stability is a crucial aspect to consider when expanding a network, e.g. increasing the wind power penetration. Wind turbine generators differ from the Coal, Hydroelectric or any Conventional Power Plants in their amount of inertial contribution to the grid. As a result, the ability of the system to maintain a stable operation is declined with a large penetration of wind energy. In order to assess the levels of wind power penetration which endanger the capability of a system to overcome a disturbance, two standard models are designed in Power Factory software. The first model is used to characterize system components, the response of the wind turbines and thereupon to validate them, whereas the second is used to estimate the maximum levels of wind power penetration. Those levels mainly depend on the spinning reserve, the inertia of the system and the severity of the event. Rate of change of frequency will behave according to the status of those parameters.
Bacterial biofilms in porous structures: from biomechanics to control

The key ideas motivating this project are that: 1) precise control of the properties of porous systems can be obtained by exploiting bacteria and their fantastic abilities; 2) conversely, porous media (large surface to volume ratios, complex structures) could be a major part of bacterial synthetic biology, as a scaffold for growing large quantities of microorganisms in controlled bioreactors.

The main scientific obstacle to precise control of such processes is the lack of understanding of biophysical mechanisms in complex porous structures, even in the case of single-strain biofilms. The central hypothesis of this project is that a better fundamental understanding of biofilm biomechanics and physical ecology will yield a novel theoretical basis for engineering and control.

The first scientific objective is thus to gain insight into how fluid flow, transport phenomena and biofilms interact within connected multiscale heterogeneous structures - a major scientific challenge with wide-ranging implications. To this end, we will combine microfluidic and 3D printed micro-bioreactor experiments; fluorescence and X-ray imaging; high performance computing blending CFD, individual-based models and pore network approaches.

The second scientific objective is to create the primary building blocks toward a control theory of bacteria in porous media and innovative designs of microbial bioreactors. Building upon the previous objective, we first aim to extract from the complexity of biological responses the most universal engineering principles applying to such systems. We will then design a novel porous micro-bioreactor to demonstrate how the permeability and solute residence times can be controlled in a dynamic, reversible and stable way - an initial step toward controlling reaction rates.

We envision that this will unlock a new generation of biotechnologies and novel bioreactor designs enabling translation from proof-of-concept synthetic microbiology to industrial processes.

A NEW SUT CONSOLIDATION METHOD TESTED BY A DECOMPOSITION OF VALUE ADDED AND CO2EMBODIED IN EU27 EXPORTS

This paper develops a method to consolidate national supply–use tables (SUTs) into a single supra-regional SUT. The method deals with mirror trade statistics problems, such as the different valuation of imports and exports, and it corrects for double-counting re-exports. The method is tested by means of a decomposition of value added and CO2 emissions embodied in EU27 exports to third countries. When the national SUTs for the period 2000–2007 are used, neglecting intra-European Union spillover and feedback effects results in an underestimation of the embodied value added of 12–15%. Not consolidating the national tables properly leads to a further underestimation of 11–16%. With these underestimations removed, EU27 foreign exports still only explain around 11% of EU27 Gross Domestic Product, whereas they explain 17% of the EU27 CO2 emissions. Hence, the income benefits of these exports are, in relative terms, considerably smaller than their CO2 emission cost.
Plasma efficient nitrogen fixation

Industrial scale nitrogen fixation (NF) via the Haber-Bosch process dominates artificial fertilizer production and at present, enables yield enhancements which nourish over 40 % of the world population. Owing to the exceptional stability of molecular nitrogen’s triple bond the Haber-Bosch process is an energy intensive chemical process which accounts for 1-2 % of the world's energy production, consumes 2-3 % of the global natural gas output and emits more than 300 million tonnes of CO2. In light of an increasing population (and fertilizer demand) coupled with an urgency to reduce CO2 emissions, efforts to find alternative technologies for NF that offer the potential of reduced energy usage while minimizing greenhouse gas emissions have accelerated. Electrically powered plasma processes are considered as a promising alternative for delocalized fertilizer production, based on renewable energy, and more specifically for NO production. To-date, however, plasma designs for NF have not exceeded Haber-Bosch efficiencies. Pulsed powered microwave (MW) generated plasma technology offers some promise in this regard. Pulsing of the discharge power enables strategies which direct energy to primarily heat electrons (’non-thermal’ conditions) providing a far more efficient pathway to molecular bond breakage (and resulting NO production) than thermal effects. Indeed, reports on pulsed powered MW discharges have indicated an opportunity to tune electron energies to maximize molecular vibrational excitation, identified as an optimal route for energy efficiency in NO production. In a novel advance, plasma efficient nitrogen fixation ’PENFIX', proposes to interrogate ’pulsed’ powered atmospheric microwave (MW) plasma for nitric oxide (NO) production using air. Novel reactor designs informed by validated modelling will be of particular focus. Diagnostic and modelling activities will elucidate the fundamental physics while addressing the challenges of future industrial scale deployment.
Complexity and condition in algebra and numerics

This proposal connects three areas that are considered distant from each other: computational complexity, algebraic geometry, and numerics. In the last decade, it became clear that the fundamental questions of computational complexity (P vs NP) should be studied in algebraic settings, linking them to problems in algebraic geometry. Recent progress on this challenging and very difficult questions led to surprising progress in computational invariant theory, which we want to explore thoroughly. We expect this to lead to solutions of computational problems in invariant theory that currently are considered infeasible. The complexity of Hilbert's null cone (the set of ""singular objects'') appears of paramount importance here. These investigations will also shed new light on the foundational questions of algebraic complexity theory. As an essential new ingredient to achieve this, we will tackle the arising algebraic computational problems by means of approximate numeric computations, taking into account the concept of numerical condition.

A related goal of the proposal is to develop a theory of efficient and numerically stable algorithms in algebraic geometry that reflects the properties of structured systems of polynomial equations, possibly with singularities. While there are various heuristics, a satisfactory theory so far only exists for unstructured systems over the complex numbers (recent solution of Smale's 17th problem), which seriously limits its range of applications. In this framework, the quality of numerical algorithms is gauged by a probabilistic analysis that shows small average (or smoothed) running time. One of the main challenges here consists of a probabilistic study of random structured polynomial systems.  We will also develop and analyze numerical algorithms for finding or describing the set of real solutions, e.g., in terms of their homology.
Cirugía de la obesidad: condiciones, objetivos y límites

En estos últimos años la cirugía bariátrica ha evolucionado con rapidez debido a su eficacia incomparable para la pérdida de peso y las comorbilidades de la obesidad. Sin embargo, provoca un número no desdeñable de complicaciones, en particular digestivas, nutricionales y psicológicas, que requieren a la vez una preparación pluridisciplinar y un seguimiento a largo plazo. Francia se encuentra entre los países que realizan más intervenciones, con 60.000 cirugías al año. Forzosamente, el médico de familia se encuentra por lo tanto enfrentado al tratamiento de los pacientes intervenidos. Su papel es fundamental sobre todo porque el número de pacientes que no vuelven a la consulta tras la cirugía es muy importante, del orden del 50% a los 5 años. Existen muchas dudas en relación con la incidencia y la prevención de las complicaciones nutricionales y digestivas, especialmente con un riesgo de reflujo gastroesofágico y esófago de Barret en las cirugías restrictivas, y un riesgo de oclusión intestinal y carencias nutricionales en caso de derivación intestinal. Los conocimientos actuales no permiten considerar alternativas a la cirugía tan eficaces en un futuro inmediato. Son necesarias una mejor organización de los cuidados y una evaluación de las intervenciones con el fin de mejorar la relación beneficio/riesgo.
A revolutionary dyeing process to help the textile industry reduce its environmental impact

The fashion industry is the second largest polluter in the world. Dyeing processes cause major environmental damage because of the toxic chemicals in pigments. They also use up to 200 litres of water to colour just 1kg of fabric.
Colorifix solves these problems by introducing advanced synthetic biology to textile dyeing. We engineer the DNA responsible for colour in Nature into self-replicating microbes. The resulting engineered microbes produce, transfer and fix colorants in a unique and integrated process. Microbes are grown on an industrial scale using renewable feedstocks such as molasses. The process is biologically safe, uses zero toxic chemicals, reduces water consumption by 90% and cuts energy use by at least 20%.
Colorifix' target markets are very large and include sustainable high street fashion, luxury apparel, sportswear, and automotive textiles, amounting to global trade of €370 billion p.a. The provision of textile dyeing services in these markets is worth c. €10 billion p.a, and growing at a rate of c. 9% p.a.
The technology is highly scalable and low-cost compared to rival methods. This is because it avoids the cost of extracting and purifying pigments, and because the process is compatible with standard dye machines. The company will transform textile dyeing from one of the most environmentally harmful industries to an eco-friendly, sustainable process.
Commercial interest in Colorifix is extremely high. The company is already engaged in lab-scale trials with the largest global fashion brands and textile producers, including Stella McCartney, Filippa K, a global fibre producer and one of the world's largest automotive textiles producers. 
The Phase 2 project will provide the capital needed to construct and operate a pilot production facility, enabling testing for customers on pre-production volumes, and preparing full commercial scale-up of the technology in textile production around the world.
“Close-Knit” Defines a Healthy Native American Indian Family

In the United States, the most significant health disparities occur among members of the American Indian and Alaskan Native populations. Because their health beliefs, values, and cultural practices are learned within a family system, this study used a focused ethnography to explore American Indians’ perceptions of a healthy family. Seventeen interviews were performed with 21 adults residing on a reservation on the Northern Plains of the United States. Participant observation was conducted during 100 hr of fieldwork. All informants identified a healthy family as being “close-knit,” indicating that the major defining feature of these families is the degree of connectedness among members, immediate and extended. In this paper, we present adult tribal members’ descriptions of a healthy family. It is evident that culturally appropriate programs, which consider American Indians’ values/beliefs and build on community assets, are urgently needed to reduce health disparities.
