The cultural and creative economy in Brussels-Capital Region

This article is aimed at describing the cultural and creative (CC) economy in the Brussels-Capital Region (BCR). It provides a basis for discussions regarding this part of the economy, and the policy choices which affect it. Analysing the number of firms, turnover, value added or employment for the period 2008-2014 we observe that the share of the CC economy in Brussels remained larger than in Flanders and Wallonia, but this share has also decreased more quickly than in both other regions. The parts of the CC economy in Brussels which have been more resilient distinguish themselves through high value added per worker. This is the case in particular for sectors with a strong cultural and creative content, such as performing arts, the audiovisual sector and advertising and architecture. These activities are also the ones which make Brussels stand out with respect to the other regions. Regional differences, in particular for sectors such as the audiovisual sector, might be explained by the more urban character of Brussels compared to the other regions and by its role as capital.
Data Economy Alps Strategy to stimulate participation competitiveness and new business in Alpine Space

We are living in the Data Economy (DE) era as the most valuable resource is not anymore Oil but Data as stated also by the EU Commissioner for digital economy: “the DE will unleash its full potential and double its value to 4 per cent of GDP in 2020”. The impact of DE application is relevant if we consider AS and its territorial challenges. With 80 million the AS has specific needs in providing valuable and on time quality service to the population (es. weather prevention, mobility, hydrogeological issues, etc). A contribute can come from Open Data/Linked Open Data (OD/LOD) exploitation: they are a “mine” of information available with the e-government policies and - if elaborated and packed – con become a source of value services for the public actors and the markets. Nowadays in AS exist several local initiatives using OD/LOD in different sectors. Nevertheless, no clear impact is registered and integrated and efficient solutions are missing. The effect of the DE on digital policy strategy at macro regional level is also still poor. Scope of DEAS is to improve the value of using OD/LOD for public service and business, raise competitiveness of the AS with their exploitation and improve AS Digital Agenda. DEAS will strengthen the single digital market focusing on strategic sectors for AS which can benefit from the use of LOD (such as climate protection, tourism, mobility). With DEAS the public & private sectors will boost the creation of new disruptive and customer-oriented services/products for all. Concrete outputs are the AS methodology on LOD, platform and the DEAS Strategy able to promote the availability of relevant OD/LOD and their exploitation. DEAS involves in co-creation processes all quadruple helix actors. The territorial, social and economic features of AS allow the creation of local pilot in combi with transnational ones able to stimulate cross-border and cross-sectorial innovation to raise competitiveness of AS economy.
The Party Wall etc. Act 1996

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to consider the procedures under section 17 of the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 (“The Act”) for enforcement proceedings to recover an awarded sum. This paper will demonstrate that the procedure is unclear and confusing to the party wall surveyors, the magistrates, the county court officers and the legal profession who express conflicting views on the appropriate method of enforcement. The intent of this paper is to examine and explain the procedures that will allow the recovery of costs and other contingencies, as a civil debt within the Magistrates’ Court, with a comparison of the more traditional route of the County Court.Design/methodology/approach – The author has reviewed the relevant sections of the statutory acts and the limited publications that discuss and promote various methods of enforcement of actions that have been awarded and are recoverable summarily as a civil debt. Accordingly, the options to enforce payment within the magistrates’ and county courts wil...

Satellites and nuclear information. production, communication and reception of nuclear-related information generated with satellites.

In our societies in which information is ubiquitous, satellites are still a matter of national pride and prestige, but they are also scientific laboratories, commercial projects, services’ providers, and part of global information infrastructures. Satellites are part and parcel of knowledge society.  In particular, satellite images and calibrated measurements contribute to generate technical information about nuclear accidents, as well as to convey the public perception of them, forge debates on nuclear energy, its management and its risks, and shape environmental, regulatory and political action. Satellite data are both resources that enable regulators and policy-makers to act during and after nuclear crises as well as instruments to communicate with the large public.  But how policy guidance is carried out to manage nuclear situations and how public perception of nuclear risks is constructed from, through and with satellite data?  By focusing on the information generated and consumed in the aftermath of two nuclear accidents (Chernobyl 1986 and Fukushima 2011), this project aims to explore in detail the processes that transform satellite raw data into knowledge, allowing us to understand how satellite information is produced, analysed, rendered evident, disseminated and consumed. Such historically informed comparative study will provide understanding of the historical evolution of the production, circulation and reception of satellite data and their actual impact in the contexts of both defining political action and framing public opinion related to nuclear issues. This innovative study will not only enhance our academic understanding of space, nuclear and information history (and their connections), but also alert us to how knowledge from space is generated as it is transformed into information that is used to advance multiple intellectual, institutional and policy-related objectives in different social and cultural contexts.

Un passé national pour le « bolsonarismo » : les usages politiques de l'indépendance dans le Brésil contemporain

Dans cet article, j'analyse les usages du passé dans le Brésil contemporain, en prenant comme étude de cas la manière dont l'histoire de l'indépendance brésilienne (1822) est manipulée par des secteurs d'extrême droite qui configurent l'idéologie politique du « bolsonarismo ». L'un de ces secteurs est représenté ici par Brasil Paralelo, une maison de production de contenu audiovisuel qui agit dans le contexte des soi-disant « guerres culturelles » dans la société brésilienne. Je soutiens que cette façon d'utiliser le passé fonctionne comme une mythologie politique qui cherche à manipuler et à moraliser l'histoire.
UV-Induced Change in the Electronic Structure of SrTiO3at Low Temperature Probed by Resonant X-ray Emission Spectroscopy

Both Ti \(L\) and Kβ resonant x-ray emission spectra (RXES) of SrTiO3 were measured at low temperature, \(T\leq 40\) K. Regardless of the \(d^{0}\)-ness of a Ti4+ ion, a \(dd\) excitation peak in Ti \(L\) RXES is irreversibly created by UV irradiation, directly indicating a mixture of the \(d^{1}L\) electronic configuration under reduced symmetry around a Ti4+ ion, where \(L\) denotes an oxygen hole. This mixture can also be evidenced by the UV-induced change in the relative intensity of two charge-transfer peaks observed in Ti Kβ RXES. A similar change is reported for a cubic-to-tetragonal ferroelectric phase transition in BaTiO3. We therefore conclude that the local ferroelectric moment, i.e., displacement of a Ti4+ ion in an oxygen octahedron, is induced in SrTiO3 by UV irradiation at low temperature.
Investigations of a practical wind-induced fatigue calculation based on nonlinear time domain dynamic analysis and a full wind-directional scatter diagram

By performing the nonlinear time domain dynamic analysis, and calculating the wind-induced fatigue using the procedure presented by this author, this paper investigates the influences from different drag coefficient specification systems. The study shows that the drag coefficient specified by Norsok is more conservative than that of the DnV system, mainly due to Norsok's rough categories of the drag coefficient values varying with the Reynolds number. Furthermore, the effects of time increment step length, time duration for simulation as well as the flexibility of wind strut-main flare boom connections are also investigated. By comparing the fatigue life from dynamic analysis with its static counterpart (without taking into account the inertia effects of the structural and non-structural installations), the significance of the contribution from the structure's dynamic response can be identified. It is suggested that the modelling of secondary structures such as a flare and vent line must be carefully cons...
Doses de nitrogênio em cevada

A nutrição é um fator limitante na produção e qualidade de sementes de cevada. Nesse sentido, é necessário um adequado suprimento de nitrogênio para a obtenção de produtividade e qualidade fisiológica de sementes. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar as respostas de duas cultivares de cevada, BRS Brau e BRS Cauê, em diferentes doses de adubação nitrogenada, inferindo sobre a produtividade e a qualidade fisiológica nas diferentes situações. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi de blocos ao acaso, em esquema fatorial 2x4, (duas cultivares X quatro doses de nitrogênio) e os tratamentos consistiram na combinação de duas cultivares (BRS Cauê e BRS Brau) e quatro doses de nitrogênio, totalizando oito tratamentos. O experimento foi conduzido no município de Capão do Leão e a coleta de dados para avaliação da resposta das plantas às doses de nitrogênio quanto ao rendimento e qualidade fisiológica de sementes de cevada, foram analisados no Laboratório de Análise de Sementes do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciência e Tecnologia de Sementes. As cultivares BRS Brau e BRS Cauê apresentaram diferentes exigências de nitrogênio para as variáveis altura de planta, rendimento por planta e rendimento total. Em relação à qualidade fisiológica de sementes, a utilização de diferentes doses de nitrogênio não afetou significativamente a germinação e o vigor das sementes. Porém, para as expressões isoenzimáticas, as diferentes doses de adubação nitrogenada influenciaram as plântulas de cevada. Palavras-chave: Hordeum vulgare; adubação nitrogenada; qualidade fisiológica; expressões isoenzimáticas.
A mosasaur from the Maastrichtian Fox Hills Formation of the northern Western Interior Seaway of the United States and the synonymy of <i>Mosasaurus maximus</i> with <i>Mosasaurus hoffmanni</i> (Reptilia: Mosasauridae)

Abstract We report here a large mosasaur skull, preserved three-dimensionally in a concretion recovered from Ziebach County, South Dakota, USA. This fossil represents the first articulated mosasaur skull from the Trail City Member of the Fox Hills Formation and the first definitive occurrence of Mosasaurus hoffmanni Mantell, 1829 from that area and the northernmost occurrence in the Western Interior Seaway, greatly extending the paleobiogeographic range of this taxon. The age of this specimen is determined to be between 68.3 and 67.6 Ma based on the associated invertebrate fauna. Although previous authors have suggested synonomy of the North American Mosasaurus maximus Cope, 1869 and the European M. hoffmanni, this is the most comprehensive analysis to date and is based on comparisons with Mosasaurus specimens recovered across the Northern Hemisphere, allowing an emended diagnosis of the species M . hoffmanni. Minor differences are considered individual variation or to reflect ontogenetic stage, including slender dentaries in some individuals, range of development of the C-shaped notch of the coronoid and differences in the shape of the supratemporal fenestra.

High efficiency electrical motor

WHYLOT is a French SME founded in 2011 and is located in the south-west part of France in Cambes. The company is specialized in the development of different products in the technical field of electromagnetism among which miniature electric motors has been the subject of an important R&D project. Within 4 years WHYLOT’s R&D has patented 24 innovations regarding these products. 
Regarding the electric engines, the company has developed highly innovative concepts concerning the system electromagnetic topology and architecture. The main patents registered concern an aluminium block material winding (replacing the coper coil), a material composite rotor or a new permanent magnet topology. These important breakthroughs allowed the company to realize engines much lighter and smaller than existing products for a high power and efficiency. Compared to McLaren’s F1 electric motor, which is considered the best motor within the worldwide F1 competition and on the market, WHYLOT’s engine is 30% lighter and smaller. In the same time, WHYLOT’s offers a mechanical torque and power respectively 10 N.m and 10 Kw higher. This engine is made of standard material and, as it is smaller, requires less rare-earth metals, which makes its cost also very low and competitive on the market. 
Regarding the carbon impact, the transportation sector represents 22% of the global CO2 emission. One of the main solutions to reduce this impact will be the expansion of the electric vehicle market. The latter will reach 5.7 % of the vehicle total European market in 2020. WHYLOT’s engines totally respond to the market’s needs and will enhance electric vehicle and contribute strongly to the reduction of CO2 emissions. 
WHYLOT now has a fully operational proof of concept but need know to perform a feasibility study to define and validate the best marketing strategy to adopt during the first SME instrument. Afterwards, the company will aim the SME instrument phase 2 and 3
The role of the tax system in a greener future

Ahead of the commencement of action against climate change in 2020 under the Paris Agreement, COP24 saw nations come together to design the rule book for global emissions reductions. Australia also reinforced its commitment to the Paris Agreement and its emission reduction targets. Critical to this is the design of the rules for international trade in emissions permits or credits, which were due to be agreed in Madrid as part of the COP25 in December 2019. However, the participants failed to come to any consensus, getting caught up in technical issues such as the rules for carbon market mechanisms. Instead we wait for an intersessional meeting in Bonn in June 2020 and COP26 in Glasgow in November 2020. The tax policy approach and framework adopted in relation to the energy transition, including for example the introduction and tax treatment of any carbon price or emissions trading scheme, has the potential to either support or distort the ultimate objectives of the transition. So, what does the transition to a greener future mean for the tax mix and how it will it impact the revenues of government? What role does tax play in the energy transition? What are the current rules in Australia and how do they compare to other fiscal regimes globally? How can existing rules in Australia be adapted to best support the effective design of carbon pricing policies? What reforms are necessary?
Firms' Locational Choice and Infrastructure Development in Rwanda

Agglomeration economies are among the most important factors to increase firm productivity. However, there is little evidence supportive of this in Africa. By applying the conditional and nested logit models, this paper examines the relationship between firm locations and infrastructure accessibility in Rwanda. It is found that agglomeration economies matter to even one of the smallest countries in Africa. It is also found that infrastructure availability has an important role in affecting the firm location decision. Electricity access and transport connectivity to the domestic and international markets are found to be important to attract new investment. In addition, the quality of local labor supplied, measured by educational attainment, is found as an important determinant of firm location, while the effect of labor costs remains inconclusive.
WEDGE-SHAPED TILE SPACER

The disclosure relates to tile spacing devices for insertion between tiles being spaced apart from one another and/or from other features on a surface. The spacers include a wedge portion and a tongue portion. Unlike previous wedges used for tile spacing, at least one face of the wedge described herein is indented. When inserted between adjacent tiles, at least the indented portion of the face will not contact a tile, which can minimize adhesion of grout, mortar, and adhesives to the spacer, facilitating its removal. The tongue portion of the spacer extends beyond the face of adjacent flat tiles, even when the entire wedge portion is inserted into the inter-tile space. The tongue portion can be gripped by a user to facilitate removal of the spacer from set tiles.
Text-Filled Stacked Area Graphs

Text can add a significant amount of detail and value to an information visualization. In particular, it can integrate more of the data that a visualization is based on, and it can also integrate information that is personally relevant to readers of a visualization. This may influence readers to consider a visualization a detailed enrichment of their personal experience instead of an abstract representation of anonymous numbers. However, the integration of textual detail into a visualization is often very challenging. This work discusses one particular approach to this problem, namely text-filled stacked area graphs; i.e., graphs that feature stacked areas that are filled with small-typed text. Since these graphs allow for computing the text layout automatically, it is possible to include large amounts of textual detail with very little effort. We discuss the most important challenges and some solutions for the design of text-filled stacked area graphs with the help of an exemplary visualization of the genres, publication years, and titles of a database of several thousand PC games.
LED-Beleuchtungseinrichtung

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine modular aufgebaute LED-Beleuchtungseinrichtung mit einem länglichen Träger (12), wenigstens einem am Träger (12) gehaltenen LED-Modul (26) mit einem oder mehreren lichtemittierenden Halbleiterelementen als Lichtquelle, einer Steuerschaltung mit zumindest einem LED-Treiber für den Betrieb des LED-Moduls und Verbindungsmitteln (40), welche Ausgangsanschlüsse (60) der Steuerschaltung mit elektrischen Anschlüssen des LED-Moduls (26) verbinden. Die Steuerschaltung befindet sich in einem gesonderten Steuerschaltungs-Gehäuse (30A), das auswechselbar an dem Träger (12) gehalten ist. Das LED-Modul (26) ist außerhalb des Steuerschaltungs-Gehäuses (30A) ebenfalls auswechselbar an dem Träger (12) gehalten. Die im Steuerschaltungs-Gehäuse (30A) befindliche Steuerschaltung kann entstehende Wärme über das Steuerschaltungs-Gehäuse (30A) direkt an die Umgebungsluft abführen, ohne zur Erwärmung des LED-Moduls (26) nennenswert beizutragen. Die gute Wärmeableitung und die geringere Erwärmung des LED-Moduls (26) sorgt für eine lange Lebensdauer der Module, was zusammen mit der auswechselbaren Halterung am Träger zu niedrigen Wartungskosten und hoher Lichtausbeute sorgt führt.
