Radial anisotropy along the Tethyan margin

SUMMARY

We estimate radial anisotropy along the Tethyan margin by jointly fitting regional S and Love waveform trains and fundamental-mode Love-wave group velocities. About 3600 wave trains with S and Love waves and 5700 Love-wave group velocity dispersion curves are jointly inverted for SH-velocity perturbations from a pre-existing, 3-D SV-velocity model. These perturbations are predominantly positive (SH faster than SV) and consistent with PREM, but our model also shows significant lateral variation in radial anisotropy that appears to be correlated with tectonic environment. SH waves travel faster than SV wave beneath backarc basins, oceans and orogenic belts such as the Tyrrhenian and Pannonian basins, the Ionian Sea, the Alps, the Apennines, the Dinarides and the Caucasus. The Algero-Provencal basin, however, is underlain by faster SV velocity. Faster SV velocity of radial anisotropy is also detected within cratons such as the East European platform and the Arabian shield. Beneath hotspots we detect a change in radial anisotropic polarity with depth, which may be caused by transition between the lattice-preferred orientation from horizontal deformation in the asthenosphere and the shape-preferred orientation from vertically oriented melt channels in the lithosphere. We also find significant portion of radial anisotropy within subducting slabs depends on the slab's dip angle.
Photoelectrochemical responses of doped and coated titanium dioxide composite nanotube anodes

Abstract Nanostructured photoelectrochemical anodes were made from titanium dioxide nanotubes doped with various metals including Fe, Cu, Ni, Ag, and added with polyaniline to enhance the photosensitivity. The TiO2 nanotubes were obtained through electrochemical oxidation of Ti foil in a glycerol aqueous solution. Electroplating followed by high temperature treatment induced element substitution approach was used to achieve doping effect. Transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray diffraction analysis were performed to reveal the structure and obtain the composition information. To examine the photoelectrochemical response, the anode was polarized at the constant bias voltages of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 V and under the exposure of both ultraviolet and visible light. Linear scan was also performed in the potential range of 0–2 V. It is found that Fe, Ni, and Cu doped and polyaniline covered nanotubes show obvious photoelectrochemical activities. Polyaniline covered nanotube anode has better performance than others. Cu-doped anode shows the highest current density in the linear scan voltage range.
Neurofilaments in health and neurodegenerative diseases

Neurofilaments (NFs) are a highly dynamic cytoskeletal network, which exhibits essential functions in neurons and are key actors in neurodegeneration. NFs are not only a genetic cause of neuronal death in human, their abnormal aggregation is an early pathological hallmark in disease, and their genetic removal from axons has shown spectacular benefits in delaying disease onset, extending survival and restoring neurological functions in mouse models.  In this project, I propose the concept that the defects in NF transport and degradation are the causes of neurodegeneration. I will tackle the live dynamic of these processes in health and disease in a meaningful in vivo context, using the zebrafish. Combining state-of-the-art and innovative live-imaging and proteomic methodologies in zebrafish, our program has three major goals. First, we will study the dynamic of NF transport along the axons and its spatial regulation by myelinating cells, with novel zebrafish lines expressing fluorescently labeled NFs. Second, we will decipher the mechanisms of NF degradation by generating a zebrafish line overexpressing gigaxonin, an E3 ligase adaptor we found to destroy the stable NF network, and by designing a new proteomic methodology in zebrafish. Finally, we will investigate NF dysfunctions and their pathological roles in disease, by generating models for neurodegenerative diseases carrying NF mutations and using the methodologies described above. I anticipate that interventions on NF dynamics will substantially reverse neurodegeneration, and proofs of concept will be obtained by overexpressing gigaxonin in our disease zebrafish models and through drug screening.  Thus, this ERC project will generate forefront knowledge in the field of NFs and neurodegeneration and will provide a highly significant platform for therapeutic intervention on NFs, for the benefit of most neurodegenerative diseases.

Leveraging the Value of World Heritage Sites in the Regions for the Benefit of All.

World Heritage Sites are important promoters of regional development, both economically, as they attract tourism, and socially, as cornerstones of regional identity. However, it is often difficult for sites with a World Heritage status to convey the abstract and complex concept of World Heritage to their local communities or to visitors and tourists. This can often be traced back to a lack of novel approaches to unlock the wealth of knowledge encased in cultural heritage resources. Most approaches to convey the stories of World Heritage sites have utilised new media and technologies in a static top-down fashion. This leaves little room for active community participation. In contrast to these conventional methods HERITAGE ALIVE! seeks to engage citizens and visitors actively in a cultural dialogue to increase their awareness and understanding of the shared heritage and regional identity. The bottom-up approach involves all actors, including stakeholders from the tourism sector, regional development and spatial planning agencies, local communities and local industries (such as handcrafts) as well as educational and youth organisations. HERITAGE ALIVE! comprises a network of World Heritage sites in urban environments in the CADSES area; in some of these sites, city districts have World Heritage status, and in other sites only certain monuments. The project also includes sites which have applied for World Heritage status (Corfu/Ionian Islands, Perperikon/Kardjali). HERITAGE ALIVE! will establish a transregional network of partners from EU Member States and Non-EU Member States to better utilise the regions’ World Heritage status to stimulate economic prosperity, to strengthen social cohesion and to promote  regional identity.
Multiparametric imaging of glioblastoma tumour heterogeneity for supporting treatment decisions and accurate prognostic estimation

Glioblastoma is not only the most frequent but also the most malignant tumour originating in the Central Nervous System. Due to the extremely complex and heterogeneous molecular biology of this tumour “the same treatment for all” approach does not work well in this disease, and standard of care is not always the best option. The intra-patient tumor heterogeneity is one of the responsible factors for the high aggressiveness of these lethal solid tumors and their resistance against effective therapies. In this context, additional efforts are needed for generate novel strategies able to define more tailored personalized treatments that facilitate higher safety and efficacy for relevant sub-populations.
GLIOHAB project will develop an artificial intelligence based medical device able to monitor the functional state of the glioblastoma at pixel level. This software will be built on technologies previously co-developed, validated, and patented by the researcher. GLIOHAB will join best experts in the field, in a multidisciplinary and eminently clinical environment, which will provide the optimum conditions for a holistic approach to the solution. This proposal includes both the transfer of knowledge to the host institution and the training of the candidate in new advanced techniques. GLIOHAB results will contribute to monitor the response of highly aggressive tumours to complex treatments, and generate stratification strategies to select treatment responder patients.
Design of hyper tall onshore wind turbine towers

HYPER TOWER is a very promising project that will lead to a radical increase in the wind turbine tower height and consequently to an increase in the energy potential harvested by wind structures. The project reaches its aims of constructing taller, more robust and economical towers by realizing 6 work packages that are formulated and developed in 2 years. In approaching the ""20-20-20"" targets, more and more energy has to come from sustainable energy sources and since ""The taller the wind tower is, the greener the energy is"", a constant trend of taller wind energy structures is observed. The civil engineers' challenge of constructing taller structures, with heavier machinery hanging at greater heights has led to the need of evolution of a new tower configuration that can reassure the structure's robustness along with a feasible construction schedule.
Hyper Tower proposes the elaboration of a new-age tower cross-section and construction methodology, which are elaborated within the project's work packages. Assessment of existing tower configuration is performed, the proposal of a new-age tower section is elaborated, numerical and experimental results are assessed and compared to traditional tower configuration results and the final tower configuration is formulated.
Quantum electrodynamics and plasmonic resonance of metallic nanostructures

Plasmonic resonance of a metallic nanostructure results from coherent motion of its conduction electrons driven by incident light. At the resonance, the induced dipole in the nanostructure is proportional to the number of the conduction electrons, hence $10^{7}$ times larger than that in an atom. The interaction energy between the induced dipole and fluctuating virtual field of the incident light can reach a few tenths of an eV. Therefore, the classical electromagnetism dominating the field becomes inadequate. We argue that quantum electrodynamics (QED) should be used instead as the fundamental theory to describe the virtual field and its interaction with the electrons. Based on QED, we derive analytic expressions for the plasmonic resonant frequency, which depends on three easily accessible material parameters. The analytic theory reproduces very well the experimental data, and can be used for rational design of materials.
A APLICAÇÃO DO TRATADO INTERAMERICANO DE ASSISTÊNCIA RECÍPROCA (TIAR) À CRISE VENEZUELANA DE 2019

Resumo Este artigo trata da aplicação do Tratado Interamericano de Assistência Recíproca (TIAR) à situação interna da Venezuela em 2019 após a adesão do país por solicitação do autointitulado governo interino da Assembleia Nacional Venezuelana (ANV). É analisada a compatibilidade da aplicação do TIAR pela ANV e pelo Órgão de Consulta com o direito internacional. Em especial são examinadas as possibilidades de aplicação do TIAR aventadas no caso venezuelano pelo exercício da legítima defesa coletiva ou em razão da existência de “fato ou situação que possa pôr em perigo a paz de América”, bem como as hipóteses de intervenção armada e medidas coercitivas como medidas passíveis de serem adotadas no caso em questão, tais quais as sanções efetivamente adotadas pelo Órgão de Consulta em setembro e dezembro de 2019. A metodologia empregada para análise é normativa, feita com base nas normas do TIAR, interpretadas segundo seu objetivo, trabalhos preparatórios e prática subsequente das partes, além de normas do direito internacional geral. Conclui-se que o emprego do TIAR no caso em questão e a adoção de eventuais medidas coercitivas nele baseadas são contrários ao direito internacional em razão da inexistência de hipóteses normativas válidas no instrumento que justifiquem sua aplicação à situação concreta.
A comparative study of the non-isothermal degradation of natural rubber from Mangabeira (Hancornia speciosa Gomes) and Seringueira (Hevea brasiliensis)

Due to the increasing search for alternative sources of natural rubber (NR) whose properties are similar to Hevea brasiliesis, several sources have been studied in the past few years. Among them, Mangabeira (Hancornia speciosa Gomes), which is native to Amazon rainforest and other regions of Brazil, has a potential as another viable rubber source. As a continuation of a series of comparative studies between Hancornia and Hevea (clone RRIM 600) these two species by our research team, their thermal behavior was analyzed by thermogravimetry (TG) using Flynn–Wall–Ozawa’s approach in order to obtain kinetic parameters (reaction order, pre-exponential factor and activation energy) of the decomposition process. Results indicated that the thermal behavior of NR from Hancornia was comparable to Hevea with some differences observed as follows: reaction order for Hancornia was higher than for Hevea at the beginning of degradation and very close for temperatures over 350 °C; activation energy and pre-exponential factor had the same trend, i.e., increased with increasing degree of conversion remaining almost constant between 20 and 70% and then increasing for higher degrees, although Hevea was slightly more thermally stable than Hancornia. These major influences in the degradation process in the early stage are attributed to differences in non-rubber constituents present in these two species.

Welfare housing policies for senior citizens

The EU is presently facing unprecedented demographic changes that will have a major impact on society and economy. One important factor of demographic change are today’s longer life expectancy. The improved health profile of younger generations holds out the hope that senior citizens of the future will remain self-sufficient for longer and will thus be able to remain in their own homes, a trend already visible today. While high intensity care is likely to be increasingly concentrated towards the end-of-life period, cities and regions in the EU need appropriate social and housing policies and services to support senior citizens in their desire to live in their own homes. Overall objective / Objectif général The operation "WELHOPS – Welfare housing policies for senior citizens" aims at promoting better housing and living conditions for senior citizens in the EU. More specifically, it aims at collecting and benchmarking relevant regional experiences, identifying and transferring good practice and defining guidelines for planning and carrying out housing projects for senior citizens, which will be tested in a series of pilot activities. Expected results / Résultats attendus WELHOPS results in higher capacity and better know-how concerning housing of senior citizens in the participating regions. Improved policies and housing conditions support independence and foster a better quality of life in the urban context. The creation of a European network of experts and local actors ensures consistency and promotes communication, training, coordination and sharing of experiences among partners and also not participating regions, Activities include “regional diagnoses” to analyse the situation of housing interventions for senior citizens in the partner countries. Partners define a new Welfare Model and elaborate associated guidelines for the construction of economically sustainable housing interventions for senior citizens. Partners also develop a series of pilot projects to apply the new Model according to their own territorial, social, legislative and regional characteristics.
Determination and evaluation of orthometric height derived from Malaysian Continuously Operating Reference Station of MyRTKnet / Mohd Zainee Zainal

Traditional levelling in determination of heighting is time consuming, labor intensive and costly. With the advent of Global Positioning System (GPS) technology coordinate in 3D can be obtained with reasonable accuracy. This study investigates
the capability of GPS as a tool of obtaining heights value. Static and Real-Time Kinematic with Virtual Reference Station (RTK VRS) technique of GPS observation is chosen for height determination. For static observation mode, absolute and relative
GPS heighting concepts are investigated. Only absolute GPS heighting concept is investigated in RTK VRS mode. The study area comprises of Negeri Sembilan and Melaka in Peninsular Malaysia. In this study, it is shown that static mode of GPS
observation utilizing the absolute GPS heighting concept can achieve heighting difference between observed and known height in the range of -0.131 m and 0.045 m. The Root Mean Square (RMS) value for static mode using absolute GPS heighting
concept is ±0.079 m. Static mode using relative GPS heighting concept gives mean relative accuracy of 2.6 ppm. In this study, the duration of GPS observation for point positioning is also investigated. For 5 hours of GPS observation, it is capable of
determining height in the first-order accuracy points with less than 1.1 km (0.010. m). Using RTK VRS method of observation, the range of height difference is between -0.005 m and -0.202 m. The results also show that there are no significant differences between broadcast and precise ephemeris. From this research, it is possible to do GPS heighting in study area

Humidity sensing properties of Cu2O-PEPC nanocomposite films

A blend of copper oxide nanopowder (Cu2O), 3 wt.%, and poly-N-epoxypropylcarbazole (PEPC), 2 wt.%, in benzol was drop-casted on glass substrates with pre-deposited surface-type silver electrodes for the fabrication of Cu2O-PEPC nanocomposite thin films. The thicknesses of the Cu2O-PEPC films were in the range of 10–13 μm. The effect of humidity on the electrical properties of the nanocomposite films was investigated by measuring the capacitance and dissipation of the samples at two different frequencies of the applied voltage: 120 Hz and 1 kHz. The AC resistance of the samples was determined from the dissipation values, and the DC resistance was measured directly. The effect of ageing on the humidity sensing properties of the nanocomposite was observed. After ageing, it was observed that at 120 Hz and 1 kHz, under a humidity of up to 86% RH, the capacitance of the cell increased by 85 and 8 times, and the resistance decreased by 345 and 157 times, accordingly, with respect to 30% RH conditions. It was found that with an increase in frequency, the capacitance and resistance of the samples decreased. It is assumed that the humidity response of the cell is associated with the diffusion of water vapors and doping of the semiconductor nanocomposite by water molecules.
