SPINNING FRAME

A ring spinning frame has at least one group of equidistant spinning stations (11), a doffing device (14) for simultaneous interchange of bobbins (15) filled with yarn and empty bobbins (16) at each spinning station (11) and an endless conveyor (17) which runs past the spinning stations (11) and is automatically returned from one end of the groups of spinning stations (12) to the other. Vertical bobbin spindles (13) are mounted on the endless conveyor (17) at a distance from the spinning stations (11) such that when the bobbins on the endless conveyor (17) are doffed each spinning station (11) is aligned exactly with the corresponding bobbin spindle (13). Each bobbin spindle (13) is arranged on its own spindle carriage (18). Each spindle carriage (18) can be engaged with a corresponding driver (19) which is mounted in a position on the endless conveyor (17) such that when the driver (19) is engaged with the corresponding spindle carriage (18), the bobbin spindle (13) of this spindle carriage (18) is aligned exactly with the corresponding spinning station (11) in the doffing position of the endless conveyor (17).
Hydrogenation-induced microstructure changes of pseudo-binary (PrxMg1−x)Ni2 Laves compounds

Abstract Using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we systematically investigate hydrogenation-induced microstructural changes of pseudo-binary (Pr x Mg 1− x )Ni 2 Laves compounds varying x from 0.3 to 1.0, which lead to the averaged constituent atomic-size ratio R A / R B ranging 1.34–1.47 of the supposed AB 2 compound. It is empirically known for the AB 2 Laves compounds that hydrogen-induced-amorphization (HIA) takes place when the R A / R B exceeds 1.37. We find that, based on careful analyses of electron diffraction patterns and TEM images, the hydrogenation-processed microstructures of the (Pr x Mg 1− x )Ni 2 compounds exceeding the critical ratio are not pure amorphous but composed of Ni nano-crystals embedded in an amorphous matrix of hydride PrH 2 . This provides a direct evidence of hydrogenation-induced micro-phase separation (HIMPS), and accordingly it is suggested that HIA believed so far should be attributed to HIMPS phenomenon.
It’S not my fault i am aggressive, they picked on me: how early peer relations affect dna methylation and neurocognitive development in children

Think about the day you took your child to kindergarten for the first time. You were worried. Worried about the social experiences of your child. Would peers like your child, or would it get bullied, or rejected by classmates? 
Many children have positive social school experiences, but 10-15% of children become rejected, victim of bullying, have few friends and have poor relations with teachers. Such experiences have been linked to aggression development, but we poorly understand how.
I hypothesize that adverse social experiences in kindergarten and elementary school affect the neurobiology of children. Specifically, I aim to study how adverse social experiences (1) affect DNA methylation of genes implicated with stress regulation, and (2) affect neurocognitive functions underlying self-regulation, thereby increasing aggression. 
I will use a multidisciplinary approach to comprehensively study these hypotheses by using the strengths of twin-, observational and experimental studies. I will first study the impact of bully-victimization on children’s methylation of DNA and neurocognitive function development in monozygotic twins differing in bully-victimization, to test whether bully-victimization affects the neurobiology above and beyond possible genetic effects.
I will then focuses on cross-time influences of multiple social experiences on DNA methylation and neurocognitive functions. Adverse versus protective effects of peer- and teacher-relations on DNA methylation and neurocognitive functions will be studied to explore possible cascading, accentuation, and buffering effects. Further, sex differences will be addressed.
In the final set of (lab-experimental) studies I aim to unravel how DNA methylation of genes implicated with stress system responses, and altered neurocognitive functions lead to aggression by studying differences between chronically rejected and stable non-rejected children in stress-, and self-regulation following a social exclusion experience.
The Quest for World Order and Human Dignity in the Twenty-first Century: Constitutive Process and Individual Commitment

Given the breadth, sophistication, and idiosyncrasy, of this collection of lectures it should be treated as a general, but not introductory, analysis of public international law and will be attractive to scholars of the theory of international law. It is situated somewhere between a textbook covering core topics in international law and a collection of the author’s essays. As a consequence Reisman provides us with components of a theory of public international law but not the sustained and unified analysis we might expect of a monograph. As such it could be judged by two standards: whether it is synoptic enough to be a good survey and coherent enough to be considered a theory. As a survey Reisman’s book is usefully wide-ranging and consistently analytical but it is by no means comprehensive or systematic. As a theory, it should be seen as an interesting contribution to the New Haven School of international legal study, but a contribution that exposes the difficulties of finding normative unity within international law even using a principle as malleable as human dignity. It is, nonetheless, more than the sum of its parts and the distinctive character, and many incisive moments, of the work make it an attractive text. The New Haven School was, and is, a critical school of international law and politics offering an immanent critique of international law. International law must be assumed to be the law of a society if it is to be law at all. That society has functions, policies, goals, and values that can be disaggregated into the values of the individuals that inhabit them. These basic interests or values include ‘enlightenment’, ‘well being’, and ‘respect’ and can, in turn, be distilled into the idea of human dignity, sometimes meaning the sum of these values, sometime meaning a harmonious relationship between individuals and the system as a whole (a
Innovative method for affordable generation in ocean energy

The IMAGINE “Innovative Method for Affordable Generation IN ocean Energy” project aims at developing the Electro-Mechanical Generator (EMG), an innovative Power-Take Off (PTO) concept for wave energy applications able to convert slow speed, reciprocating linear motion into electricity. The EMG is based on the integration of a recirculating ballscrew and a permanent magnet generator, an architecture that dramatically improves average efficiency (70-85% also when working outside design conditions), reliability (20 years MTBF) and affordability (CAPEX reduction by over 50%) compared to state-of-the-art PTOs. During the IMAGINE project, the EMG technology will be demonstrated through the fabrication of a 250 kW prototype and its testing on a HardWare-In-the-Loop (HWIL) bench. This will allow progressing its TRL from 3 to 5. A range of Wave Energy Converters (WECs) will be emulated on the HWIL bench and the performance of the EMG, under the action of a robust control system, will be measured and extensively assessed. Furthermore, a FMECA analysis and a subsequent accelerated life test will prove the reliability of the system. HWIL tests will allow reducing technological risk in power rating increase, providing an intermediate step between tank tests and sea trials that represents a critical transition for wave energy development. Finally, a techno-economical assessment of the EMG and a complete Business Plan for commercialization will be developed. Such activities will be carried out by an international consortium with multi-disciplinary skills in marine energy, led by a leading-manufacturing company as Umbra Cuscinetti S.p.A.
The IMAGINE project is related to the topic “Developing the next generation technologies of renewable electricity and heating/cooling”, under the category “Ocean Energy: Development of advanced ocean energy subsystems: innovative power take-off systems and control strategies.
Resilient forest value chains –  enhancing resilience through natural and socio-economic responses

Climate change poses a major challenge for European forests, demonstrated by recent extreme events and forest disturbances of unprecedented intensity. As climate change continues, adverse impacts on the stability and production capacity of European forests could undermine the role of forests and the forest-based sector as a central pillar of the European Green Deal. To mitigate increasing disturbance risks, more effort is needed in prevention, particularly by improving the resilience of European forests and associated value chains. Forest owners need better guidance in adapting the management of their forests  to coping with climate-induced forest disturbances and changes in functioning. Similarly, the forest-based sector will require substantial innovation capacity to respond to changes in profitability, unpredictable wood flows, and a gradual change in tree species. There is an urgent need to improve the scientific understanding on how resilience of Europe’s forests and forest value chains can be improved. RESONATE aims to guide decision-making towards enhancing resilience of forests and forest value chains in response to four resilience challenges: i) changing suitability of tree species due to climate change; ii) increased risks of forest disturbances; iii) changing societal demand on forest products and ecosystem services; iv) biodiversity decline. With an integrated resilience and vulnerability assessment, RESONATE investigates how past and current site factors and management affect forest system resilience in different forest types and management systems across Europe. Based on scenario analysis, foresight studies with active stakeholder engagement, and policy analysis, future-oriented response strategies to enhance forest and forest value chain resilience will be elaborated. RESONATE further highlights and balances trade-offs in decision making and delivers user-oriented recommendations and decision support with tools including, e.g., a Resilience Dashboard.
Sequence stratigraphy of the Zhujiang formation in the Panyu area of the Pearl River Mouth Basin

One second-order sequence boundary and five third-order sequence boundaries have been identified in the Zhujiang formation in the Panyu low uplift of the Pearl River Mouth Basin based on drilling,logging and seismic data according to seismic reflection termination relationship,drilling and logging identification of the boundaries.Based on the establishment of isochronal stratigraphic framework,the main control factors have been discussed.It is believed that the Zhujiang formation in the Panyu low uplift of the Pearl River Mouth Basin was mainly dominated by eustatic sea level change and tectonic subsidence;the lowstand system tract tends to form good lithologic traps,which are favorable exploration targets in the study area.
Attenuated relationship between cardiac output and oxygen uptake during high-intensity exercise

Recent findings have challenged the belief that the cardiac output (CO) and oxygen consumption (VO(2) ) relationship is linear from rest to maximal exercise. The purpose of this study was to determine the CO and stroke volume (SV) response to a range of exercise intensities, 40-100% of VO(2max), during cycling.Ten well-trained cyclists performed a series of discontinuous exercise bouts to determine the CO and SV vs. VO(2) responses.The rate of increase in CO, relative to VO(2) , during exercise from 40 to 70% of VO(2max) was 4.4 ± 1.4 L L(-1). During exercise at 70-100% of VO(2max) , the rate of increase in CO was reduced to 2.1 ± 0.9 L L(-1) (P = 0.01). Stroke volume during exercise at 80-100% of VO(2max) was reduced by 7% when compared to exercise at 50-70% of VO(2max) (134 ± 5 vs. 143 ± 5 mL per beat, P = 0.02). Whole body arterial-venous O(2) difference increased significantly as intensity increased.The observation that the rate of increase in CO is reduced as exercise intensity increases suggests that cardiovascular performance displays signs of compromised function before maximal VO(2) is reached.
Implications of satellite sea-surface salinity observations for operational microwave radiometry

Global satellite sea-surface salinity (SSS) observations are now a reality; consequently, the influences of SSS on operational microwave radiometry need to be considered. At the same time, the in-progress transition of operational agencies from salinity-independent radiative transfer modeling (RTM) to a salinity-dependent RTM exposes non-negligible sources of error and uncertainty in past operational passive microwave retrievals; consequently, the impact of improved modeling of SSS influences on ocean surface permittivity, as a principal component of ocean surface emissivity, is examined. Both reductions and continuing elements of uncertainty due to SSS are explored. Ocean surface emissivity's interwoven dependencies on salinity, temperature, and frequency are highly nonlinear; consequently, impacts due to salinity will depend on the instrument, application, and situation.
Aeronautical cyber intrusion detection mechanism

ATC use of datalink is widely expanding over the years. Data communications are a key enabler sustaining SESAR/NextGen services, deployment being planned in the 2020+.  Legacy data transmission is not encrypted for existing datalink capabilities and protocol.  As a consequence, it is very hard to identify if failure is a malfunction or an attack.
However, civil aviation is an increasingly attractive target for cyber-attacks. New technologies such as e-enabled aircraft and modern CNS/ATM systems, together with trends towards greater connectivity, reliance on technology, common infrastructure underpinned with common technologies with common standards, etc. … are changing the risk landscape of the aviation system.

The consequences of a potential cyber-attack in civil aviation are wide and can include: 
(i) Lost of trust in new systems & concepts, limiting their successful deployment;
(ii) A 'domino effect' of failures across connected systems or common components;
(iii) Closure of the air traffic management system for unpredictable periods; …
Since there is not a 'silver bullet' technology that will secure the aeronautical domain,  it is essential to:
(i) Investigate measures to make the current systems more resilient against cyber-threats
(ii) To establish effective and automated solutions for intrusion detection; 
(iii) Promote its implementation worldwide and build trust across stakeholders.

Considering aforementioned challenges, the vACCINE Project aims to design an aircraft onboard security filter with an accuracy level of intrusion detection compatible with cyber protection objectives. The objective is to check/control data from the ground domain before authorizing them to enter the avionics domain not to compromise this level of safety.
Based modern digital transformation concepts and cyber-security technologies, the Project will deploy an innovative approach to catalyse the resilient of existing aeronautical communication systems against cyber-threat.
Monopolistic markups in the Polish food sector

Research background: Research background: Agro-food sectors are commonly considered as highly regulated, traditional and of strategic importance, mainly due to the food security issues. Changes in the related market structures are subject of constant interest because of their importance for competition and economic welfare of food producers and consumers. In Poland, a rising concentration among various branches of the food industry can be observed. Unfortunately, there is a lack of studies regarding the level of actually exerted market power.&#x0D; Purpose of the article: The main objective of the article was to depict the changes of the market power execution in the Polish food sector and its branches in the period 2002–2013.&#x0D; Methods: As a measure of market power, markups of price above the marginal cost were applied and for their estimation two methods were used, namely the Roeger method involving primal and dual Solow residuals and the method based on the marginal cost of labor. Yearly data from F-01 financial statements regarding 32 food sector branches and various accounting categories were used in the calculations.&#x0D; Findings and Value added: It was found that in the analyzed period the markup over marginal cost on average amounted to 9.75%, and it was increasing over time. The labor input category seemed to be not sufficient for the markup calculation. The evolution of the monopolistic power in the Polish food sector appears to be associated not only with the business cycle, but also with the sector developments accelerated by the accession to the EU. Moreover, the differences in results for the branches indicate a considerable heterogeneity in the Polish food industry companies pricing practices. The research constitutes the first trial of the measurement of both the Roeger markups in the Polish food sector branches and the labor markups changes in the Polish food sector.
Non-Invasive decoding of brain communication patterns to ease motor restoration after stroke

Human-computer interfaces are increasingly explored to facilitate interaction with the external world. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), bypassing the skeletomuscular system, are particularly promising for assisting paralyzed people in control and communication, but also for boosting neuromotor rehabilitation. 
Despite their potential, the societal impact of BCIs is dramatically limited by the poor usability in real-life applications. While many solutions have been proposed - from the identification of the best classification algorithm to the type of sensory feedback - the accuracy is still highly variable across subjects and BCIs cannot be used by everyone. Critically, these approaches have implicitly assumed that the user’s intent could be decoded by examining the activity of single brain areas. Today, we know that this is not true as the brain functioning essentially depends on a complex network of interactions between differently specialized areas. 
The grand challenge of this project is to develop a novel generation of BCIs that integrate the user’s brain network information for enhancing accuracy and usability. Based on this approach, we will experiment innovative BCI prototypes to restore the lost motor functions in patients suffering from stroke. 
This project relies on a unifying framework that analyses and models brain networks by means of analytical tools derived from graph theory and complex systems science. By recruiting diverse neuroimaging and experimental methods, within a modern computational framework, we aim to i) identify new control features for enhancing BCI accuracy, ii) study the brain dynamics of human learning for improving adaptive BCI architectures, and iii) optimize brain stimulation techniques for boosting BCI skill acquisition. 
This project can significantly improve BCI usability as well as determining how brain lesions compromise brain functioning and which solutions are most effective to unlock motor restoration after stroke.
The effect of AlN nucleation growth conditions on the inversion channel formation at the AlN/silicon interface

In recent years, GaN grown on silicon substrates (GaN-on-Si) managed to offer a commercial solution for harvesting the advantages of GaN-based devices whilst benefiting from the well-established silicon-based infrastructure. Although having an upper hand when it comes to cost, GaN-on-Si suffers from a vertical breakdown voltage which was found to be limited by the silicon substrate [1]. Earlier investigations showed that this breakdown is related to the formation of an inversion channel at the interface between the nucleation layer and the silicon substrate [2, 3]. This inversion layer acts as a source for electron injection during the application of high positive voltages relative to the substrate, thus leading to a premature breakdown. In this work we report on the characterization of this inversion channel and demonstrate that it can be suppressed by optimizing the growth conditions of the AlN nucleation layer. To obtain a deeper understanding of the inversion layer properties, two MOCVD AlN nucleation samples were grown on highly p-doped Silicon substrates, growth temperatures between 800 °C and 950 °C, while the desorption temperature was held at 950 °C. Vertical structures were then etched, with annealed Ti/Al/Ni/Au as ohmic contact to the silicon and Ni/Au Schottky contact to the AlN.
Cross-border sustainable management of wildlife resources

The project consists in the setting up of a Monitoring Committee across the Italian-Slovenian border to track the development of population trends, use of habitats, health and nutritional conditions of some interesting animal species from the point of view of wildlife (large carnivores) and game (wild ungulates). The project also aims at carrying out an analysis of hygienic-health conditions with regard to pathologies of wild ungulate species present in the area of reference, with special reference to zoonosis, common diseases among wild ungulates and domestic breeds (cattle) and diseases that are transmissible from animal to man. The population of wildlife species under examination live in the border area and therefore require to be managed according to common and shared criteria; for this reason, existing problems are examined and discussed by ad-hoc Joint Italian - Slovenian Commissions. The study, monitoring and the drawing up of scientific documentation are particularly important as they are the basis for the definition of harmonisation proposals of management systems, the conservation and fruition of the fauna and health assessment protocols in a cross-border context, as laid down in Community regulations in terms of protection of wildlife species. Considering the significant environmental and social role of the species under examination, the information gathered and the results achieved also aim at drawing up proposals for the eco-tourist development of the border area, through a number of initiatives of a promotional and informative nature. In this sense, the facility located in the village of Stupizza is used as the Visitors’ and Education Centre devoted to wildlife fauna. To this end, a thematic playground for children will be set up, as well as a “self-guided” educational thematic itinerary on large carnivores with the availability of bilingual guides. An illustrated book will also be produced as well as leaflets, posters, maps, and a short volume outlining the naturalistic paths present in the area of reference. A system of video-traps will also be put in place so as to allow the reproduction at the Visitors’ Centre of the images and sounds of wildlife as detected in the border area. Finally, a few structural interventions are planned to upgrade the path leading to the Visitors’ Centre.
