A technical analysis of stone artefacts from Yam Camp surface scatter and rockshelter, S.E. Cape York Peninsula
Authors: Pearson Warwick
Published: May 2020

Technological analyses of stone artefacts in Australia (e.g. Hiscock 1982; 1984; 1989) and more generally (e.g. Flenniken 1985) have yielded insights into prehistoric human behaviour not obtained by analyses which are more typologically oriented. To a large extent, previous work of this sort in S.E. Cape York Peninsula has been of the latter variety and have emphasized formal descriptions of assemblages over behavioural implications of technological change. Nevertheless, major changes in raw material use and artefact size and range have been demonstrated (Flood and Horsfall 1986; Rosenfeld et al 1981; Wright 1971a). By contrast, this paper targets aspects of two site assemblages in this region which were considered capable of yielding information concerning temporal changes in the way people have used stone for flaking. These aspects include raw material and artefact size and form (see Hiscock 1984).
Some Aboriginal walking tracks and camp sites in the Douglas Shire, North Queensland
Authors: McCracken C.R.
Published: May 2020

The Douglas Shire is a small coastal shire in the wet tropics of North Queensland, lying between Buchan Point in the south and Bloomfield in the north. It is dominated by steep rainforest-covered mountains with a narrow coastal strip, rising from sea level to 1370m in only 6km. Annual rainfall varies from 1000mm in the south to 3750mm in the north. It is a very well watered district with four main rivers and several good creeks, all of which are very fast-flowing. Before clearing began, two-thirds of the Shire was under heavy tropical rainforest, the other third was timbered grassland (eucalypt and wattle) with some melaleuca and mangrove swamps. There are also beaches, sand ridges, mangrove-lined rivers and creeks, and some salt pans.

As founding subscribers will know, the establishment of QAR in 1984 was prompted by my perception that too little substantive archaeological information was being published. Major journals were largely publishing overviews, preliminary reports and syntheses and a great deal of the detail pertaining to sites lay in theses and reports which were often difficult to access. Thus, over the past eight years QAR has provided a vehicle for the wider dissemination of such information, as least that which pertains to research in and adjacent to Queensland.

Authors: Mervin Lewis , Afzal Avid M. , Engkvist Ola , Bender Andreas
Published: May 2020

In the context of bioactivity prediction, the question of how to calibrate a score produced by a machine learning method into reliable probability of binding to a protein target is not yet satisfactorily addressed. In this study, we compared the performance of three such methods, namely Platt Scaling, Isotonic Regression and Venn-ABERS in calibrating prediction scores for ligand-target prediction comprising the Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machines and Random Forest algorithms with bioactivity data available at AstraZeneca (40 million data points (compound-target pairs) across 2112 targets). Performance was assessed using Stratified Shuffle Split (SSS) and Leave 20% of Scaffolds Out (L20SO) validation.
Multi-Targeting of Functional Cysteines in Multiple Conserved SARS-CoV-2 Domains by Clinically Safe Zn-ejectors

Published: May 2020

We present a near-term treatment strategy to tackle pandemic outbreaks of coronaviruses with no specific drugs/vaccines by combining evolutionary and physical principles to identify conserved viral domains containing druggable Zn-sites that can be targeted by clinically safe Zn-ejecting compounds. By applying this strategy to SARS-CoV-2 polyprotein-1ab, we predicted multiple labile Zn-sites in papain-like cysteine protease (PLpro), nsp10 transcription factor, and nsp13 helicase. These are attractive drug targets because they are highly conserved among coronaviruses and play vital structural/catalytic roles in viral proteins indispensable for viral replication. We show that five Zn-ejectors can release Zn2+ from PLpro and nsp10, and clinically-safe disulfiram and ebselen can not only covalently bind to the Zn-bound/catalytic cysteines in both proteins, but also inhibit PLpro protease activity. We propose combining disulfiram/ebselen with broad-spectrum antivirals/drugs to target different conserved domains acting at various stages of the virus life cycle to synergistically inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication and reduce the emergence of drug resistance.
Illuminating the Surface Corona of Biogenic Silver Nanoparticles
Authors: Rajput Sunil , McDermott Mark
Published: May 2020

Biogenic nanoparticles are attractive due to their unique surface chemistry compared to chemical counterparts. Underpinning the importance of the surface layer or corona is the interaction between the nanoparticles and the environment. The surface corona provides biological identity, physical structure, colloidal stability and a chemical scaffold for modification. Understanding the structure and composition of the corona that surrounds nanoparticles enables rational design for applications. Previous investigations examining biogenic nanoparticles have purported a coating comprised of biomolecules, however a defined structure is extremely limited. We address this limitation through a detailed examination involving both in situ analyses of silver nanoparticle dispersions (indirect) produced by Fusarium oxysporum and desorbing the surface corona (direct). Using a series of orthogonal characterization techniques we show evidence the surface corona of biogenic silver nanoparticles is comprised of a thin mixed layer of peptides and carbohydrates. We propose the origin of these peptides is from adaptive or protective proteins triggered by environmental stress. The differences and limitations in our two approaches are highlighted. Our findings make it clear that methods used to characterize the inherent surface corona of biogenic silver nanoparticles should be carefully documented for consistent and judicious interpretations.

Published: May 2020

By combining metal nodes and organic linkers one can make millions of different metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). At present over 90,000 MOFs have been synthesized and there are databases with over 500,000 predicted structures. This raises the question whether a new experimental or predicted structure adds new information. For MOF-chemists the chemical design space is a combination of pore geometry, metal nodes, organic linkers, and functional groups, but at present we do not have a formalism to quantify optimal coverage of chemical design space. In this work, we show how machine learning can be used to quantify similarities of MOFs. This quantification allows us to use techniques from ecology to analyse the chemical diversity of these materials in terms of diversity metrics. In particular, we show that this diversity analysis can identify biases in the databases, and how such bias can lead to incorrect conclusions. This formalism provides us with a simple and powerful practical guideline to see whether a set of new structures will have the potential for new insights, or constitute a relatively small variation of existing structures.
Machine Learning Models Correct Systematic Errors in Alchemical Perturbation Density Functional Theory Applications to Catalysis
Authors: Griego Charles D. , Zhao Lingyan , Saravanan Karthikeyan , Keith John
Published: May 2020

Alchemical perturbation density functional theory (APDFT) has great promise for enabling rapid and accurate computational screening of hypothetical catalyst sites, but first order approximations are unsatisfactorily inaccurate when alchemical derivatives are large. In this work, we analyze errors in first order APDFT calculation schemes for binding energies of CHx, NHx, OHx, and OOH adsorbates over a range of different coverages on hypothetical alloys based on a Pt(111) reference system. We then construct feature vectors by fingerprinting the dopant locations in the alloy and then use a data set of about 11,100 data points to train three different support vector regression machine learning models that correct systematic APDFT prediction errors for each of the three classes of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen based adsorbates. While uncorrected first order APDFT alone can approximate reasonably accurate adsorbate binding energies on up to 36 hypothetical alloys based on a single Kohn-Sham DFT calculation on a 3 × 3 unit cell for Pt(111), the machine learning-corrected APDFT in principle extends this number to more than 20,000 and provides a recipe for developing other machine learning models to aid future high throughput screening studies.

Published: May 2020

We demonstrate the preparation of anthanthrene derivatives with fused five-membered rings. These new derivatives are prepared by a palladium catalyzed cyclopentannulation reaction from precursors derived from the low-cost dye Vat Orange 3 (4,10-dibromoanthanthrone). The new cyclopenta-anthanthrene compounds possess reduced optical and electrochemical gaps (~0.9 eV) compared to anthanthrene derivatives and are electron acceptors with lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies of ~ -3.4 eV to -3.9 eV.

Published: May 2020

India’s population rate is increasing day by day. In near future, we could face serious problem of food and other daily necessities, hence the development of agriculture is necessary. Today, the farmers are suffering due to inconsistent rains and scarcity of water. The main objective of this paper is to provide an automatic irrigation system, thereby saving their time, money & power of the farmer. The traditional farm-land irrigation techniques require manual intervention. With the automated technology of irrigation, the human intervention can be minimized. There will be moisture sensors installed on the field. Whenever there is a change in water content of soil these sensors sense the change gives an interrupt signal to the micro-controller. As soil is recognized as one of the most valuable natural resource whose pH property used to describe the degree of acidity or basicity which affect nutrient availability and ultimately plant growth. For capturing the images, a camera is used and after processing the captured image the pH value of the soil is determined and accordingly crops or plants are suggested that can be grown in the field. Due to detection of soil pH value, we can reduce the chances of crops being destructed.

Stimulation of child's sexual imitation behavior through Neurolinguistic programming
Authors: Rustan Edhy
Published: May 2020

This study aims to determine the forms of child sexual imitation behavior, influencing factors and the role of parents and teachers in addressing the sexual imitation of children. This type of research is descriptive qualitative research using direct observation and interview methods as research data sources. The results of this study indicate that children engage in sexual imitation in the form of sexual movements. This behavior is caused by errors in parenting. Parenting is too permissive so that it does not allow the child to sleep alone as a result the child sees his parents having sexual relations and imitates them when playing or studying at school. In dealing with these behaviors, a Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) approach can be used where parents play a role in training the independence of children by (1) creating a pleasant atmosphere for children (2) giving positive suggestions through fairy tales. While in school teachers provide positive education and suggestions through learning programs in schools by integrating sexual education into the appropriate learning themes.

Analyzing the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) performance of a container ship
Authors: Tokuşlu Aydın
Published: May 2020

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has adopted a new regulation to prevent air pollution from ship emissions which concentrated on reducing green gas emissions from shipping for existing ships, and energy efficiency measures for the new ship. This new regulation imposes a measure which is called Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). This measure aims to reduce CO2 emissions and global environmental pollution by using fewer fossil fuels and less greenhouse gas emissions. EEDI is an implementation for all new ships larger than 400 GT. In this paper, one of the container ships in the Turkish maritime trade fleet was investigated and its emissions were estimated. The Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) of the ship was calculated. Some useful proposals have been presented to reduce the harmful effects of CO2 exhaust gas emission.

Authors: Genkal S. I.
Published: May 2020

Our analysis of published data and study of new materials on diatom previously attributed in the Russian literature to Thalassiosira bramaputrae (Ehrenberg) Hakansson et Locker have shown that it belongs to other Thalassiosira species, namely T. lacustris (Grunow) Hasle and has wider variability of main morphological features than was specified in its description. This has allowed the author to emend the diagnosis of T. lacustris and specify its distribution in Russia. The variety T. bramaputrae var. septentrionalis (Grunow) Makarova is considered here as T. hyperborea var. septentrionalis (Grunow) Hasle. The variety T. bramaputrae var. proximus (Makarova) Makarova is supposed to represent the largest cells of T. lacustris.

Purpose : infectious disease is a disease that must be wary of because it is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Some of the infectious diseases can be transmitted through the air, and in general, infectious diseases can cause death. This condition is getting worse with unhealthy environmental conditions that cause some acute infectious diseases that are dangerous to attack humans such as diseases originating in animals. hence, we must maintain a healthy body by maintaining personal hygiene and environment, eating healthy and nutritious food, and regular exercise. With that, we can avoid contracting infectious diseases or slow the spread.This disease can move from one person to another, transmission can occur directly or indirectly and can also be transmitted through intermediaries or liaison. Infectious diseases are usually characterized by the cause of a living disease and can move to attack the host (patient). Infectious diseases are caused by biological agents such as viruses, bacteria, or parasites and are not caused by physical factors such as burns or chemicals (poisoning).

Intradialytic haemodynamic instability is a significant clinical problem, leading to end-organ ischaemiaand contributing to morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis patients. Non-invasive continuous bloodpressure monitoring is not part of routine practice but may aid detection and prevention of significantfalls in blood pressure during dialysis. Brachial blood pressure is currently recorded intermittently duringhaemodialysis via a sphygmomanometer. Current methods of continuous non-invasive blood pressuremonitoring tend to restrict movement, can be sensitive to external disturbances and patient movement,and can be uncomfortable for the wearer. Additionally, poor patient blood circulation can lead to unreliable measurements. In this feasibility study we performed an initial validation of a novel methodand associated technology to continuously estimate blood pressure using pressure sensors in the extracorporeal dialysis circuit, which does not require any direct contact with the person receiving dialysistreatment.The paper describes the development of the measurement system and subsequent in vivo patient feasibility study with concurrent measurement validation by Finapres Nova experimental physiological measurement device. We identify a mathematical function to describe the relationship between arterial linepressure and brachial artery BP, which is confirmed in a patient study. The methodology presented requires no interfacing to proprietery dialysis machine systems, no sensors to be attached to the patient directly, and is robust to patient movement during treatment and also to the effects of the cyclical pressurewaveforms induced by the hemodialysis peristaltic blood pump. This represents a key enabling factor tothe development of a practical continuous blood pressure monitoring device for dialysis patients.

Hidden Among the Hidden: Transracially Adopted Korean American Adults Raising Multiracial Children
Authors: Wu Christine S. , Lee Samuel , Zhou Xiang , Kim JaeRan , Lee Heewon , Lee Richard M.
Published: May 2020

The parenting practices of both transracially adopted Korean American adults and multiracial families are often overlooked in developmental science, yet are important to address given that the majority of Korean adoptees are now adults with families of their own and given rapid increases in the multiracial population. This qualitative study examined the cultural socialization beliefs and practices among transracially adopted Korean Americans who are parents of multiracial Asian-White children. Drawing upon interviews with 31 Korean adoptee parents (29 female; Mage = 41.26), we identified four themes that capture parents’ understanding of their children’s multiracial identities, how that understanding subsequently shapes their cultural socialization practices, and how parents’ socialization beliefs and practices vary by developmental stage. These themes described the ways that parents’ cultural socialization practices were shaped by their children’s phenotypes, parents’ understanding of their children’s multiracial identities, geographic location, and the multiracial family context. This study also demonstrated how multiracial couples in our sample engaged in cultural socialization together. Results suggest that Korean adoptee parents largely acknowledged their children’s multiracial identities through labels, but primarily socialized children as monoracial minorities.
Korean adoptees as parents: Intergenerationality of ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization
Authors: Zhou Xiang , Kim JaeRan , Lee Heewon , Lee Richard M.
Published: May 2020

Objective: Utilizing a socialization framework, the study aims to understand the intergenerational patterns of ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization practices. Background: Understanding the impact of ethnicity, race, and adoption is a lifelong process for transracially, transnationally adopted individuals. Few studies, however, have explored how adult adoptees socialize their children on ethnicity, race, and adoption and to what extent this socialization is informed by their own transracial, transnational adoption experiences. Method: Based on 51 interviews, we investigated adopted Korean Americans’ reappraisal of their ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization experiences growing up transracially and transnationally, as well as their current ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization practices with their children. Results: Despite the generally limited ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization from White adoptive parents, we found via thematic analysis that Korean adoptee parents utilized strategies such as reculturation with their children, birth family involvement, and emphasis in multiculturalism in response to the needs for ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization in the next generation. Conclusion: These themes reflect the unique intergenerational transmission of ethnic heritage, racial experiences, and adoption history based on having grown up in transracial and transnational families of their own.Implications: Findings can inform evidence-based practice in working with adopted individuals and their families, particularly in addressing ethnic, racial, and adoption socialization practices.
Preprint of "Income Inequality Reduces Civic Honesty"
Authors: Du Hongfei , Chen Anli , Chi Peilian , King Ronnel B.
Published: May 2020

Income inequality has been shown to have a detrimental impact on a wide range of psychological, economic, and social outcomes. In this study, we focus on the role of income inequality in reducing civic honesty. Study 1 reanalyzed data of a “lost wallet” experiment conducted by Cohn, Maréchal, Tannenbaum, and Zünd (2019) in 355 cities spread across 40 countries. Multi-level analyses indicated that citizens in countries with higher income inequality were less likely to return a lost wallet. Study 2 examined the causal effects of income inequality by utilizing an experimental design. We found that income inequality reduced one’s personal desire to return a lost wallet. Convergent findings from two studies indicate the crucial role played by income inequality in reducing civic honesty.
Understandings of Democracy: New Norms and Participation in Changing Democracies
Authors: Zorell Carolin , van Deth Jan W.
Published: May 2020

The understanding of what democracy means has never been the same for all people and nations. However, contemporary developments suggest a fundamental shift. Preferences for a- and anti-democratic political parties and authoritarian(-like) relationships between politics and civil society are gaining support. Remarkably, these developments originate and thrive in the midst of exactly those democratic structures rejected. We therefore ask if there is a new understanding of democracy, and we empirically identify a discernible category of people who support illiberal understandings of democracy. These citizens with disparaging views of democracy reject democratic processes and actors, and weakly support common norms of citizenship. Yet, they are active in politics. Because we find that it is actual participation which stimulates the understandings of democracy, our results suggest that instead of attempting to exclude citizens with illiberal understandings of democracy from political arenas, meeting them there can offer the opportunity to nurture more liberal democratic orientations.
