A hybrid assembly having improved cross talk characteristics comprises a substrate (101) having an upper surface (111). Conductive paths on the upper surface are provided for conducting high frequency signals. Regular polygons (501, 503) made of an electromagnetic band gap (EBG) material having slow wave characteristics are 5 deposited on the upper surface and form a lattice for tessellating the upper surface. Each of the polygons has a periphery. The polygons are separated along their periphery from adjacent polygons by an interspace and are covered with an insulating material. Second polygons (804,808), also made of an electromagnetic band gap material, are deposited over the insulating material. Vias (828) connect second polygons 10 to ground plane(307). Semiconductor structures (404,406) are mounted over the second polygons. The semiconductor structures have a plurality of electrical contacts with the conductive paths. The regular polygons can be hexagons, triangles, octagons or any other combination that forms a lattice and can be printed onto the substrate.

Il materiale redatto e promosso secondo queste finalita dovra portare alla nascita di un sistema turistico integrato.
Sabu: elephant boy, international icon

Sabu: Elephant Boy, International Icon will be the first full-length study of the career of Sabu, the first Indian to become an international film star. Born Selar Shaik Sabu in Karapur, Mysore, Southern India, on 27 January 1924, Sabu (also known as Sabu Dastagir) became one of the most popular international film stars of the late 1930s and 1940s, working first in England and then mainly in the United States until his death in 1963. Despite his significance as the first Indian actor to achieve international fame, Sabu has yet to receive serious critical recognition or evaluation. This book will examine an international star whose career reveals the effects of the mythologizing and typecasting of non-white performers in Anglo-American popular culture, and whose performances raise questions about the perception and appeal of the ‘natural’ performer, the ‘primitive’ child and the ‘exotic’ body. Sabu will address his stardom and his individual performances in relation to their immediate historical, political, cultural and industrial contexts. The book will also examine his significance today: Sabu’s legacy is controversial and contested due to the kinds of characters for which he is remembered—the native savage, the exotic sidekick-and the naive innocence that is often ascribed to his professional life. I will argue for the necessity of reassessing the full range of Sabu’s film work in order to properly address the meaning of his stardom and the pleasures of his performances.
Near-surface Geothermal Resources in the Territory of the Alpine Space

The Alpine region must tackle rising energy consumption and, accordingly, CO2 emissions reduction, related mostly to heating needs (mainly from residential and tourism sectors). The potential of renewable energy sources to handle this energy requirement has been discussed in some recent studies. However, the opportunity to utilize Near-Surface Geothermal Energy (NSGE) has not yet been properly highlighted. Moreover, differences in country-specific regulations and practices currently impede a successful increase of use of this technology._x000D_
_x000D_
The aim of the GRETA project is to demonstrate the potential of NSGE in the Alpine Space and to foster its integration into future energy plans at different administrative levels. For this purpose, transnational-congruent criteria will be defined for the efficient implementation and operation of NSGE systems. The same criteria will also be implemented to develop a spatial explicit assessment of the potential (technical, economic, environmental, social) of these systems in the Alpine region. The country-specific regulations and practices will be reviewed and the best-practice specifications will be summarized into guidelines through close interaction and continuous feedback with relevant stakeholders. The outputs of the project will serve to promote and guide the implementation of shallow geothermal energy into policy instruments, e.g., the energy plans of municipalities or planning bureaus.

Distributed Fault Detection and Isolation for Flocking in a Multi-robot System with Imperfect Communication

In this paper, we focus on distributed fault detection and isolation (FDI) for a multi-robot system where multiple robots execute a flocking task. Firstly, we propose a fault detection method based on the local-information-exchange and sensor-measurement technologies to cover cases of both perfect communication and imperfect communication. The two detection technologies can be adaptively selected according to the packet loss rate (PLR). Secondly, we design a fault isolation method, considering a situation in which faulty robots still influence the behaviours of other robots. Finally, a complete FDI scheme, based on the proposed detection and isolation methods, is simulated in various scenarios. The results demonstrate that our FDI scheme is effective.
Silver inhibition on recombinant flavin reductase from Citrobacter freundii A1

In this study, the flavin reductase (Fre) of Citrobatter freundii A1 was expressed in E. coli DH5a host with 1 mM IPTG induction. This recombinant protein was fused to 6xHis-tag, thus promising easier IMAC purification of the expressed enzyme. Flavin reductase catalyzes the reduction of free flavin using NADH to produce free reduced flavin. The purity of recombinant flavin reductase was observed using 15 % SDS-PAGE and the molecular weight of the target protein was determined to be 27.04 kDa. In this study, flavin reductase activity was measured at 340 nm (e340 = 6.22 mM-1cm-1) due to the oxidation of NADH. The effect of silver ions from silver nitrate (AgNO3) on the activity of flavin reductase was determined. As the concentration of silver ions increased, the relative activity and velocity of flavin reductase reaction decreased over time. Silver ions may inhibit flavin reductase irreversibly via unspecific binding to different amino acids. In conclusion, silver ions could be a potent inhibitor of flavin reductase of C. freundii A1.
Intimate Justice: A Critical Analysis of Sexual Satisfaction

This article elaborates an intimate justice framework to help guide research on sexual satisfaction. Using a critical historiography approach, I examine the etiology and development of the psychological construct of “satisfaction” over the last century and argue that social and political antecedents to satisfaction ratings are an essential and under-theorized aspect of research in this field. By examining what are considered to be the most influential definitions in life satisfaction research, I identify conceptual gaps, oversights, and disagreements that characterize this body of work, and specifically its theoretical treatment of inequity. Moving to the intimate domain, I argue that the field of sexual satisfaction must include theories and methods that systematically consider the role of social and sexual stigmas as antecedents to sexual satisfaction ratings. In the conclusion, building from existing social justice theories, I propose an intimate justice framework as a means to guide research that can highlight issues of entitlement and deservingness in sexual satisfaction research. This is particularly important as sexual satisfaction is increasingly used as an indicator of individual and relational well-being; however, this construct is presently limited and inadequately measured for women and men who experience limited sexual rights in the socio-political domain because of their gender and/or sexual minority status.
Aggregation of group members' opinions based on two principles

In this paper, group decision making is discussed from the view of aggregating the members' opinions. At first, the individual preferences are obtained by Interval Analytic Hierarchy Process (Interval AHP), which can handle subjective judgments and reflect uncertainty of information. The interval priority weights of alternatives are induced from the pairwise comparison matrix given by a decision maker easily. They help decision makers to reveal the differences and similarities between their own opinions and others concretely, and encourage them to reduce their communication barriers. Then, the individually obtained preferences are aggregated so as to reach the final group decision. The aggregation models from two viewpoints, such as decision makers and alternatives, are proposed. The former model emphasizes the members' consensus by reducing their dissatisfaction for the aggregation. The latter model emphasizes estimating the plausible values of alternatives by taking the essential part of many decision makers' opinions on each alternative.
Feasibility study on decentralised heat recovery

Despite a continued depletion of natural resources, ongoing increases in expenditures on energy and tighter legal constrains with regards to emission targets, more than half of the energy currently used in industrial plants, processes and engines all over the globe is wasted as residual heat or waste heat into the environment. 
En3, a young technology company, founded in 2009 in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany, has developed an expansion device for small scale Waste Heat Recovery systems (WHR-systems). Small scale means a net AC power rating of the WHR-system from about 1 to 50 kW. 
EN3’s WHR-system is based on the Clausius Rankine Cycle (CRC) or alternatively on the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology and can substantially improve the efficiency of industrial processes, engines and facilities. They lower the primary energy consumption, improve the efficiency of engines and processes, reduce emissions and protect the environment and resources.
The great advantage of the technology is the flexibility in terms of the heat source. In principle WHR-systems can be adapted to different kinds of heat sources. Above-average market potential for the environmentally friendly and CO2 neutral electricity and heat production is identified for waste heat delivered from exhaust gas of combustion engines. Further applications are seen in the power generation through biomass combustion as well as in the geothermal and solar thermal energy generation.
The objective of the overall innovation project (phase one to three) is to develop and commercialise EN3’s small scale WHR-technology. 
The objective of this feasibility study (phase one)  is an analysis of the market for EN3’s small scale WHR-systems in the EU leading to an elaborated business plan showing entry and growth markets in Europe and outlining a clear plan of EN’s path forward - both financially and technically. The primary objective of the feasibility study is to identify the best entry market in the EU.
Optimizing retail operation with real-time customer activity intelligence

Brick and mortar stores still generate 89% of the total volume of sales in Europe. Not knowing lost sales statistics creates a major blind spot. Not knowing lost sales statistics might lead to over/understaffing stores, stocking the wrong inventory and missing opportunities due to price or product placement. 
There is a clear need for lost sales based business intelligence that gives store managers the agility to optimize resources and maximize sales. They need lost sales and sales information to detect trends early and be proactive. 
Our technology SENSEI enables retailers to gather lost sales data and merge it with their sales data by using every store as a customer research lab, allowing the development of effective customer-centric strategies. SENSEI is built on 1) computer vision, 2) sensors and 3) in-store devices, and is able to provide precise information about how each visitor is interacting with the store space even if they don’t buy. 
We have identified our target market as the fashion and apparel retail chains, where store footprints are small (when compared with grocery), highly scalable due to multiple heavily standardized stores, and with a strong need and appetite to invest in data analytics and business intelligence. 
Smart cities involve optimizing information technology to better understand our infrastructures and the behaviors of people and to be able to make informed decisions that meet the needs of citizens, institutions, and companies with a view to the community and sustainable development. SENSEI does exactly that for stores. 
In the long run, our technology will definitely contribute to Smart Cities on a larger scale. The founders’ vision when creating SENSEI was to fill a gap in the market and that is destined to create real smart stores. They believe with high certainty that both market share and revenue projections will be achieved within the projected time frame. We are already using SENSEI with a series of pilot users.
Knowledge, Innovation, Territory

New scientific and technological powers outside the European territory are attracting considerable and increasing amounts of R&D investments. Against this background new opportunities arise but also the question of Europe’s ability to sustain a competitive edge in knowledge and innovation. The EC recognises the territorial dimension of the innovation and knowledge economy and its role in potential territorial development and cohesion in both, the Green Paper on the European Research Area as well as the Green Paper on Territorial Cohesion. Knowledge has in recent years become a key driver for growth of economic systems, and the access to knowledge is generally considered as a key condition for innovative activities in our modern economy. The project takes this policy context as a starting point to explore the territorial dimension of the innovation and knowledge economy. An overall concept is used including product innovation, process innovation and organisational innovation. This project will take into account the current state, patterns and potentials of regions with respect to the knowledge and innovation economy and identify new development opportunities through innovation for Europe and its territories.
Enzyme design and engineering by implementation of non-canonical amino acids in protein scaffolds

The design of enzymatic catalysts and protein therapeutics with tailored, new-to-nature properties is a long-standing goal in enzymology and cell biology. Nature generally uses 20 amino acids as building blocks for protein synthesis. However, this portfolio limits the options for engineering proteins with ‘un-natural’ activities. Recent developments in the expansion of the genetic code have the potential to revolutionise the design of novel enzymes; by reprogramming the genetic code, we could convey novel functionality into proteins and extend their properties. This project aims at incorporating thiazolium amino acids into the active site of a promiscuous and highly evolvable de novo enzyme, namely the RA95 (retro)-aldolase, for orchestrating organocatalytic transformations of clinical and industrial interest. Such reactions, conventionally mediated by non-enzymatic, small molecule N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysts require high temperature and catalyst loading. An engineered enzyme with the ability to catalyse such chemistry may overcome the drawbacks of these abiological catalysts, serving as a ‘greener’ biocatalytic alternative, and also perform the desired reactions in cells for medicinal purposes. This initiative will pave the way for development of general strategies for creating enzymes with unique properties and provide a tool-box for efficient, environmentally-friendly and bioorthogonal organocatalysed reactions. It is anticipated that the generated artificial biocatalysts will have attractive applications in research, medicine and industry.
CHAIN-STITCHED CARPET YARNS

Phonological competition within the word: Evidence from the phoneme similarity effect in spoken production

Theories of spoken production have not specifically addressed whether the phonemes of a word compete with each other for selection during phonological encoding (e.g., whether /t/ competes with /k/ in cat). Spoken production theories were evaluated and found to fall into three classes, theories positing (1) no competition, (2) competition among phonemes within the same syllable position, and (3) competition among all phonemes in a word. These predictions were tested by examining the effect of within-word phoneme similarity on oral reading reaction times using mixed-effects regression. Subjects took longer to begin uttering words containing similar phonemes than with dissimilar phonemes. This was true for consonant pairs in the onset, in the onset and coda, and in the onset and suffix. The results are most compatible with theories allowing all phonemes in a word to compete with each other. The possible relationship between these results and cross-linguistic patterns are also discussed.
RETRACTABLE BED

A retractable furniture unit, preferably a retractable bed (10) is disclosed having a frame (12), a platform (14) connected to the frame and means for moving (16) the platform between raised and lowered positions. Braces (30) secured to the frame support the platform when in the lowered position, preferably at a height sufficient to permit furniture to be situated thereunder. End members (24a and 24b) inhibit movement of the platform while the platform is in the lowered position. A collapsible desktop may also be secured to the retractable bed.
The Isotope-Effect in the Phase Transition of KH2PO4: New Insights from Ab Initio Path-Integral Simulations

We investigate the quantum-mechanical localization of 1H and 2H isotopes in the symmetric low-barrier hydrogen-bonds of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals in the paraelectric phase. The spatial density distributions of these hydrogen atoms are suspected to be responsible for the surprisingly large isotope effect observed for the ferroelectric phase transition in KDP. We employ ab initio path integral molecular dynamics simulations to obtain the nuclear real-space and momentum-space densities n(R) and n(k) of 1H and 2H, of which the latter densitites are compared to experimental neutron compton scattering data. Our results suggest a qualitative difference in the nature of the paraelectric phase in KDP between the two isotopes. Whereas both paraelectric states result from quantum delocalization, the essential difference is the change from a probably coherent to incoherent tunneling behavior of the hydrogen atoms across the hydrogen-bonds.
