COUPLING DEVICE FOR COUPLING CONTAINERS, PARTICULARLY CONTAINERS USED IN CARGO SHIPS

The invention relates to a coupling device for coupling containers, particularly for coupling containers used in cargo ships and land transport, in which coupling device (1) there is formed in the upper part of its body part (13) a fastening piece (2), by which the body part is fastenable in a corner piece (26) in a corner of a container (40) by rotating the body part around its vertical shaft, whereby the fastening piece fastens in the corner piece (26) of the container, and that in the body part is formed between its upper part and lower part a planar coupling plate (3), and that in the body part there is a cam part (6) for controlling the motion of the body part and for receiving substantially vertical forces between the containers (40, 41), and that in the body part is fitted a first rotating lever-like locking part (8) for preventing and/or releasing the motion of the body part and, in the body part, there is a second rotating lever- like locking part (5) for enabling and/or preventing the lateral motion of the body part and for receiving substantially vertical forces between the containers (40, 41), and which second lever-like locking part (5) is directly or indirectly in contact with the first lever-like locking part (8) so that, when the first locking part rotates, also the second lever-like locking part is able to rotate for enabling a locking mode and an unlocking mode.
Hamaraxonia, a new pseudocolumellate genus of Middle Devonian deep-water Rugosa (Anthozoa) from Morocco

The monotypic genus Hamaraxonia gen. nov., with type species Hamaraxonia africana sp. nov., is described, based on only four specimens, from the middle Eifelian (top Costapolygnathus costatus Zone to basal Tortodus australis Zone) of the Hamar Laghdad, Anti-Atlas, SE-Morocco. In its prominent axial boss and dissepiments in maturity, the new genus is unique among pre-Carboniferous ahermatypic Rugosa. It is classified within the still polyphyletic subfamily Columnaxoninae Weyer, 1980 of the family Cyathaxoniidae Milne-Edwards & Haime, 1850 (suborder Cyathaxoniina Spasskiy, 1977). Possible ancestors will probably be found among the neighbouring subfamily Laccophyllinae Grabau, 1928. For the moment, a phylogenetic line: Laccophyllum Simpson, 1900 → Hamarophyllum Berkowski, 2004 → gen. nov. pro Cyathaxonia hercynica Roemer, 1855 (Weyer & Zagora, 1990) → Hamaraxonia gen. nov. may be proposed, pending further records from other regions and additional intermediate taxa. The commonly used term columella (aseptal origin) and the nearly forgotten term pseudocolumella (septal origin) are redefined in the already morphogenetic sense of their authors (Milne-Edwards & Haime 1848) by selecting morpho-terminological types: Cyathaxonia cornu Michelin, 1847 (late Tournaisian), and Clisiophyllum keyserlingi M'Coy, 1849 (middle/late Visean).
Full next-to-leading-order calculations of Higgs boson decay rates in models with non-minimal scalar sectors

We present a complete set of decay rates of the Higgs boson with the mass of 125 GeV at the full next-to-leading order in a variety of extended Higgs models; i.e., a model with an additional real singlet scalar field, four types of two Higgs doublet models and the inert doublet model. All the one-loop contributions due to QCD and electroweak interactions as well as scalar interactions are taken into account, and the calculations are systematically performed. Branching ratios for all the decay modes are evaluated in these models, and patterns of deviations in each decay mode from the standard model predictions are comprehensively analyzed. We show how these models with extended Higgs sectors can be distinguished by using our calculation of the branching ratios and future precision measurements of the Higgs boson decays.
Carbon stock variation in forest plantations and native forests of the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest Ecoregion, Paraguay

El estudio del papel que juegan los suelos en la provisiÃ³n de servicios ecosistÃ©micos es incipiente en nuestro paÃ­s, y requiere una atenciÃ³n adecuada con Ã©nfasis desde el actuar acadÃ©mico y cientÃ­fico; pues constituyen el grupo de servicios ecosistÃ©micos mÃ¡s complejos por incluir procesos de formaciÃ³n y otros ciclos naturales relevantes (carbono, nitrÃ³geno y otros). Los antecedentes histÃ³ricos de los cambios de uso de la tierra en la RegiÃ³n Oriental y la actual tendencia progresiva en la RegiÃ³n Occidental conducen a proponer investigaciones que aporten a su valoraciÃ³n econÃ³mica y social con propÃ³sitos de protecciÃ³n y uso sostenible. La investigaciÃ³n se realizÃ³ en el departamento de Alto ParanÃ¡ y tuvo por objetivo estimar el stock de carbono y su variaciÃ³n para dos usos de la tierra (plantaciones forestales y bosques nativos) en la ecorregiÃ³n del Bosque AtlÃ¡ntico del Alto ParanÃ¡. Se empleÃ³ el modelo InVEST para la estimaciÃ³n del stock de carbono, con la utilizaciÃ³n de datos de cuatro reservorios de carbono (biomasa aÃ©rea y subterrÃ¡nea, hojarasca y carbono del suelo) provistos por el INFONA, y los mapas de uso de la tierra elaborados para los aÃ±os 1999 y 2014. Los resultados del modelo InVEST revelaron la liberaciÃ³n de 6,7 Mt de carbono almacenado en suelos de bosques, y 0,3 Mt de carbono fijado en suelos de plantaciones forestales. Como conclusiÃ³n existe una variaciÃ³n en stock de carbono de Ã¡reas bosques nativos y plantaciones forestales que puede ser explicada en parte por la influencia de factores climÃ¡ticos, litolÃ³gicos, topogrÃ¡ficos e hidrolÃ³gicos, asÃ­ como por caracterÃ­sticas de la vegetaciÃ³n, actividad microbiana y propiedades de los suelos relacionadas a prÃ¡cticas de manejo del mismo.

The sampling sites Siddarameshwar Colony and Kadapatti showed physicochemical parameters within the water quality standards and quality of water is good & fit for drinking purpose.
Rural Communities engaged with positive energy.

The inclusion of RES into energy mix of a certain area, region or state at policy level is not enough. The use of RES potential should be the horizontal principle of any development planning supported by EE measures; much like the environmental impact assessment has become a standard for any major development project.The increase of RES in energy mix will happen if it has strong social acceptance, showing clear socio-economic benefits for the area and is sustainable. This calls for a different approach to development planning with RES and EE at the core of any business planning and a way of translation of local (regional, state) vision into concrete development opportunities. In order to highlight different obstacles to RES planning and provide measures to overcome them complementary pilot actions in different countries will be implemented to tackle obstacles for the social acceptance of RES, and for the local development planning, development of local business according to new business models with RES at the core.Results will upgrade existing methods and approaches to RES planning to make a simple and comprehensive model called: COMPOSE - model for RES development planning.It will promote this concept to decision makers at different levels and also provide a concrete training for experts dealing with development planning on a daily basis.A policy paper to mainstream the results and a Memorandum of understanding will be delivered as part of the sustainability of the project.

Ubiquitous quantum communications

''It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future'' - Mark Twain.

Yet, Gordon Moore's predictions - known as Moore's Law - made in 1965 remained valid for half a century!

As a result, semi-conductor technology is approaching nano-scale
integration and on this journey to quantum futures the traveller
enters the world of quantum physics, where many of the phenomena are
rather different from those of classical physics. This proposal
contributes to the 'quantum jig-saw puzzle', with special emphasis on
the enabling techniques of ubiquitous quantum communications,
potentially leading to job- and wealth-creation on a similar scale to
the economic benefits of flawless classic wireless communications.

My ultimate goal as a telecommunications researcher is to build
bridges across the exciting fields of quantum physics, mathematics,
computer science and hardware aspects of quantum communications.
Specifically, the three Key Challenges of Work-Packages 1-3 on the new
concept of Pareto-optimum error control, secret key-distribution,
network coding and entanglement distribution will lead to creating
stepping-stones for the Grand Challenge of Work-Package 4, dedicated
to the support of quantum-communications for aircraft 'above the
clouds'.

Methodology: theoretical performance bounds will be established
 based on the hitherto unexplored Pareto-optimum quantum design
  philosophy using multi-component optimization. Explicitly, the
Pareto-front of optimal solutions will be found off-line, where none
of the conflicting parameters, such as the bit-error ratio, transmit
power, delay and implementation complexity can be improved without
degrading some of the others. A suite of new soft-decision aided
components will be conceived by invoking code-specific quantum
syndrome decoders to be designed for iterative soft-information
exchange without perturbing the fragile quantum states. Finally,
quantum-communications solutions will be created for drones and planes.
The molecular dynamics of membrane contact sites

The goal of this project is to obtain an atomistic structural and dynamical characterization of the inner workings of membrane contact sites (MCS) between intracellular organelles, in order to understand how molecular processes such as non-vesicular lipid transport at MCS might modulate lipid homeostatic processes at the whole-cell scale.
Investigation of the mechanisms taking place at MCS has emerged as a central topic in cellular biology in the last few years, and it has led to a large amount of novel cellular, biochemical and structural data that has drastically revolutionized our general understanding of lipid homeostasis in the cell. Yet, due to limitations of experimental methods, a high-resolution understanding of how MCS proteins work is still limited, and the specific molecular details of these mechanisms are still under intense debate, and especially concerning the specificity of lipid transport or the discrimination between lipid sensing and lipid transport.
To understand these processes with unprecedented molecular detail, I will develop high-throughput protocols based on atomistic and coarse-grain molecular dynamics simulations that leverage and take advantage of all the available, yet often scattered, experimental data.  With these approaches, that have not been used so far to investigate MCS because of the extreme complexity of these cellular machineries, I will obtain a detailed understanding of key molecular processes taking place at MCS, including the specificity of membrane binding, the mechanism of lipid uptake and release, the influence of confinement on protein activity, and the role of membrane lipid composition in the regulation of lipid transport.
This approach will drive forward our perception of the limits of structure-based in-silico methods, and it will contribute to our mechanistic understanding of key cellular biology processes by providing new quantitative results that are beyond the current possibilities of experimental approaches.
Position optimization for Moving Access Points

Wireless communication systems have penetrated into almost all parts of human live. They have become essential and pervasive and do affect both personal and professional aspects of our lives. While most types of wireless networks, such as cellular mobile communication networks, have been exhaustively studied and optimized, in order to handle various situations, there are also contexts, which require efficient handling, e.g. moving hotspots, areas that have lost their infrastructure and areas with hard morphology. The motivation for this work is the efficient handling of these important contexts by the use of Moving Access Points (MAPs). MAPs are capable of autonomously moving and establishing a radio network in short time, with limited centralized management. The radio network provides wireless access to users (based on femtocell concept), is based on ad-hoc connectivity (self-adapting mesh network concept), and has some elements acting as gateways to a wide-area infrastructure. The main purpose of this paper is to find the optimal position of the MAPs i.e. the ones which require minimum movement and telecommunication cost. In order to achieve this goal, an innovative algorithm that combines the well known Simulated Annealing algorithm with the Ant Colony Optimization, is proposed. Finally, the operation of the algorithm is validated through two indicative scenarios, where it is compared to the single Simulated Annealing and the Brute Force method, respectively.
Theory and empirics of asymmetry

Why is there a Volcker disinflation but no Bernanke re-inflation? It is not only because of the zero lower bound as a nascent literature is suggesting that monetary policy is more potent in a contractionary stance than in an expansionary stance away from the ZLB as well. But why? Why is it that central banks cut interest rates much faster than they raise them? Why does it seem like financial markets give much different responses to seemingly similar macroeconomic news at different times? Are these all related? 
This research project is about asymmetries in macroeconomics and finance. I will be working on these questions because our current understanding of these issues hints at some facets of asymmetries but is a long way from providing broad evidence and matching theories. I find these questions thoroughly interesting because the theory and empirical evidence we now have lets us ask the questions and understand their research and policy relevance but not yet satisfactorily answer them.
Most of our macroeconomic models are linearized and linear models (with exceptions that effectively make the model piece-wise linear) do not generate asymmetric anything. But the issue is not in the solution method: nonlinear solutions of standard models also do not produce asymmetric responses in noticeable ways. Hence, although by experience we understand there are likely sizable asymmetries in macroeconomic and financial outcomes, we have neither extensively documented these nor understood what brings them about. 

This research program, then, will consist of five distinct but related questions:
1.	Are there asymmetries due to the state of the business cycle and the nature of the shock?
2.	Do financial markets behave as if market participants perceive the world to be asymmetric?
3.	Do policymakers behave asymmetrically and if so why?
4.	To the extent that there are asymmetries, what brings them about?
5.	What kinds of policies should we be thinking of in a world with asymmetries?
Supporting eco-innovation to reduce food waste and promote a better resource efficient economy

The ECOWASTE4FOOD project brings together seven local and regional authorities from seven countries throughout Europe. Its ambition is to address the crucial issue of food waste, not only to stop an unacceptable situation which causes the loss of up to 50% of the agricultural production that keeps not consumed or is consumed in a wrong way regarding health concerns, but also to demonstrate that food waste could be at source of a resource efficient and environmentally friendly economy for the territories.
Local and regional authorities partners of the project are convinced of that and they work together, exchanging their experiences and learning from each other, to promote in their territories eco-innovation to reduce food waste, as a way to move toward a smart sustainable and inclusive growth. These public authorities have committed themselves to improve their own policies during the four years duration of the project, in particular by influencing or even by raising existing ERDF funds within their regional operational programme 2014-2020 or equivalent. 
Within each participating territory, a group of local stakeholders will be actively involved in the selection of good practice to be transferred and in the validation of the action plan to be implemented during the two last years. 
More generally, ECOWASTE4FOOD project is expected to provide valuable inputs for the debate on the future priorities of development of these territories to be discussed as of 2019.
THE ANGLO-AUSTRALIAN PLANET SEARCH. XXII. TWO NEW MULTI-PLANET SYSTEMS

We report the detection of two new planets from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search. These planets orbit two stars each previously known to host one planet. The new planet orbiting HD 142 has a period of 6005\pm427 days, and a minimum mass of 5.3M_Jup. HD142c is thus a new Jupiter analog: a gas-giant planet with a long period and low eccentricity (e = 0.21 \pm 0.07). The second planet in the HD 159868 system has a period of 352.3\pm1.3 days, and m sin i=0.73\pm0.05 M_Jup. In both of these systems, including the additional planets in the fitting process significantly reduced the eccentricity of the original planet. These systems are thus examples of how multiple-planet systems can masquerade as moderately eccentric single-planet systems.
Difference of Regional Economic Cycle of Large Country:Taking Chinese Provincial Data as an Example

Exploring the development of large country economy has become one of the hot issues in academic research nowadays. Taking typical large country―China as the research object, the paper studies the difference of regional economic cycle of large country in the light of 6 indexes in three aspects of cycle length, depth, and shape. The result shows that there are significant differences in cycle length, depth, and shape in regional economic cycle of China. In order to further understand regional economic cycle, the paper categorizes them by using Hierarchical Clustering Method, and the result shows that 28 areas of China are divided into 5 categories according to the 6 indexes measured.
Particle dynamics in the flow of complex suspensions

Particle laden flows are ubiquitous in nature and industrial applications. Particle trajectories determine transport in porous media or biomedical conducts and effective suspension properties dictate flow behavior in food processing or biofluid flow. For a better control it is necessary to know how to predict these processes from the involved particle and flow properties.  However, current theory is not able to capture the complexity of the applications and experiments have been carried out on too diverse systems for a unifying picture to emerge. A systematic experimental approach is now needed to improve the present understanding. 
In this experimental project, we will use novel microfabrication and characterization methods to obtain a set of complex anisotropic microscopic particles (complemented by selected bioparticles) with tunable properties, covering size, shape, deformability and activity. The transport of these particles isolated or in small concentrations will be studied in chosen microfluidic model flows of simple fluids or polymer solutions. The many degrees of freedom of this problem will be addressed by systematically combining different relevant particle and flow properties. The macroscopic properties of dilute suspensions are particularly interesting from a fundamental point of view as they are a direct consequence of the individual particle flow interaction and will be measured using original microfluidic rheometers of outstanding resolution. 
This project will lead to a comprehensive understanding of fluid structure interactions at small Reynolds number. Our findings will constitute the basis for novel numerical approaches based on experimentally validated hypotheses.  Using our knowledge, local flow sensors, targeted delivery and novel microfluidic filtration or separation devices can be designed. Combining particles of chosen properties and selected suspending fluids allows the fabrication of suspensions with unprecedented tailored properties.
