The Interactive Sphere for Three-Dimensional Control in Games and Virtual Reality
Authors: Brizolara Paulo L. S. , Miranda Leonardo Cunha de , Vasiljevic Gabriel Alves Mendes , Menezes Bruna Camila de
Published: October 2023

In electronic games, the controller is the mean through which the player can interact with the game’s virtual world, being an essential factor in all of the user experience. New controllers may, therefore, completely modify the player experience, also serving as a tool to investigate new ways of interacting with interactive systems of various purposes. In this context, this paper presents the Interactive Sphere, a spherical device to be employed specially with games and virtual reality environments. This novel device combines the pressing of certain regions of the sphere with gestural interaction, in addition to providing haptic, auditive and visual feedback. The paper describes all of the rationale behind the decisions taken during the design and development process of the device, in addition to the techniques employed for implementing the detection of the acts of pressing and moving the Interactive Sphere. In this project, accessible, low-cost materials and techniques were prioritized, which could be more easily adapted to other contexts. We envision that the lessons learned and the guidelines derived from its design and development process may assist in the idealization and construction of new ways of interacting, by providing a set of methods, techniques and technologies that were employed in the development of a new physical artifact of interaction presented in this work.

Published: October 2023

Nowadays, we are seeing radically interesting and promising changes in the treatment of patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2 D), which favorably modify the prognosis related to fundamentally neuro-nephro and cardiorenal outcomes. Since no more than two decades ago, the pharmacological armamentarium for the treatment of people with T2D has basically consisted of the use of biguanides, sulfonylureas, insulin sensitizers, and insulins. A great amount of information has been accumulated through the results of new molecules such as sodium/glucose co-transporter type-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), based on robust data arising from the experience of numerous studies, both clinical and experimental, as well as the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1ra), that has clearly shown multisystem benefits that improve the function of target organs and delay the onset of complications that ultimately impact the quality of life and the neuro-nephro-cardiovascular outcomes. In this review chapter, we not only highlight the different strategies for glucose control through SGLT2i, GLP-1ra or insulin, including even some fixed combinations, but also some information on different studies with GIP/GLP1 biagonist tirzepatide and on GIP/GLP1/Glucagon triagonist retatrutide primarily focused on weight loss, even though today, they are neither FDA approved nor a part of routine treatment.

Published: October 2023

Nearly and net zero energy buildings have been strongly studied in the global north, with generally a temperate climate, thus focusing on energy-efficiency measures for such climates. Few existing zero energy buildings can be found in tropical and humid climates, where most are ongoing state projects or research projects. Therefore, this chapter brings forth and analyzes the energy-efficiency measures implemented to retrofit buildings in tropical and humid climates to achieve zero-energy buildings. The first part analyzes the measures by energy measure according to building type and climate, envelope (passive and active cooling), energy systems, dampness and mold growth, occupant (thermal comfort and the occupant), renewable energy system (BIPV rooftop and facade BIPV installation), and retrofitting aspects. The second part presents and discusses a proposed framework for policy implementation for building retrofit toward NZEB in Panama based on current building regulations and research evidence, and the viability is assessed via a SWOT analysis.
A Review of Wind Turbine Icing Prediction Technology
Authors: Zhang Lidong , Xu Yimin , Zhao Yuze
Published: October 2023

The global wind energy business has grown considerably in recent years. Wind energy has a bright future as a major component of the renewable energy sector. However, one of the major barriers to the growth of wind energy is the freezing of wind turbine blades. The major solution to overcome the aforementioned problem will be to foresee wind turbine ice using existing anti-icing technologies. As a result, improving wind turbine ice prediction technology can assist wind farms in achieving more precise operation scheduling, avoiding needless shutdowns, and increasing power generation efficiency. Traditional wind turbine icing prediction methods have problems such as misjudgment and omission, while machine learning algorithms have higher accuracy and precision. Because of the rapid advancement of deep learning technology, machine learning algorithms have become an important tool for predicting wind turbine icing. However, in real applications, machine learning algorithms still face obstacles and limits such as inadequate data and poor model interpretability, which require additional study and refinement. This chapter discusses the application of machine learning algorithms in wind turbine icing prediction, provides a comprehensive description of the applicability and accuracy of various machine learning algorithms in wind turbine icing prediction, and summarizes the applications and advantages.

Authors: Mwangi John , K. Gachene Charles , M. Mureithi Stephen , Kiteme Boniface
Published: October 2023

Erosion by water is one of the most common types of soil degradation which occurs in all climatic regions and is widely considered to be a serious threat to the long-term viability of agriculture in many parts of the world. Lake Ol Bolossat in Nyandarua County, Kenya, is a high altitude lake that was formed on Rift Valley escarpment and faces the challenge of siltation due to increased soil erosion. Over the last few decades, the lake has been encroached and lake area has been overgrazed reducing the vegetation cover around the Lake. An assessment of spatial soil erosion loss was conducted using USLE model and GIS which showed that most parts of the Lake catchment have soil loss beyond tolerable levels of nine tons per year. The soil erosion range was between zero and 22, 525.5 tons per year. The land uses that were more vulnerable to soil loss are croplands, grazing lands with sparse vegetation and barelands which had soil loss ranges of 10–50 tons, 100 to 1000 tons and 500 to 22,525.5 tons per year respectively. The study recommended for immediate interventions by policy makers, researchers and development partners in curbing the soil loss problem.

Published: October 2023

Construction projects are fraught with uncertainties. This chapter’s objective is to demonstrate how uncertainty is managed in the construction phase of road projects. Three aspects of uncertainty management in the construction phase are examined: people and organization, management process, and tools and techniques. The specific importance of the construction phase is based on the fast changes and complexity of this phase. A longitudinal study of seven Norwegian road projects is performed. The projects were all large in terms of cost, each with costs of more than $100 million. Researchers evaluated how uncertainty emerged during the construction phase and how major uncertainties were appraised step by step during construction. In addition, this study contributes to a new recognition of important factors, which influences risk and opportunity management in large road projects by introducing a suggested conceptual framework.

Desarrollo de un modelo avanzado de cálculo acoplado para el análisis del comportamiento en la mar de aerogeneradores flotantes
Authors:   , Colom Cobb Jonathan
Published: October 2023

This thesis covers the implementation of a new tool to solve fluid problems capable of solving free-surface and fluid-solid interfaces. This tool is based on a Semi-Lagrangian Particle Finite Element Method (SL-PFEM) approach of solve the Navier-Stokes equations. In a similar fashion to the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) and its second generation version (PFEM-2), Lagrangian particles are used to solve the convection problem while a background mesh is used to solve the elliptic part of the Navier-Stokes equations. One of the objectives is that the tool must be efficient when calculating problems. This is managed by first developing the numerical scheme so that it is second order accurate in time and space and then optimising the implementation so that it can perform well in HPC environments.

To solve the general interface problems such as fluid-fluid, fluid-solid or the two combined, then an enrichment method is applied to the scheme. This, joined with an SL-PFEM variation of the Level-Set Method allows to accurately capture and compute these types of problems. This implementation leads to the ability to solve multi-body problems that can interact with multiple fluids.

Esta tesis trata sobre la implementación de una nueva herramienta para resolver problemas fluidodinámicos tratando, en particular, los problemas de interfaces fluido-fluido y sólido-fluido. Esta herramienta está basada en el "Semi-Lagrangian Particle Finite Element Method" (SL-PFEM) para resolver las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes. De manera similar al "Particle Finite Element Method" (PFEM) y su segunda versión (PFEM-2), partículas Lagrangianas son usadas para resolver el problema de convección mientras que una malla fija se usa para resolver la parte elíptica de las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes. Uno de los objetivos es que la herramienta debe ser capaz de resolver los problemas de manera eficiente. Para ello, primero se desarrolla el esquema numérico para que sea un esquema de segundo orden tanto en espacio y tiempo y, luego, se optimiza la implementación para obtener un buen rendimiento en entornos de supercomputación. Para resolver problemas de interfaces como los de fluido-fluido, solido-fluido o la combinación de ambas, un método de enriquecimiento es aplicado al esquema numérico. Esto, junto con una variación del método "Level-Set" aplicado al SL-PFEM permite capturar y calcular de forma precisa estos tipos de problemas. Además, esta implementación lleva a la capacidad de resolver problemas con más de un cuerpo que puedan interactuar con varios fluidos.
Fractura de compuestos polipropileno-talco
Authors:   , Velasco Perero José Ignacio
Published: October 2023

La investigación realizada en esta tesis se ha centrado en la caracterización de la fractura de materiales compuestos por una matriz de polipropileno homopolímero isotáctico y diferentes fracciones de partículas laminares de talco. Estos materiales se emplean en la actualidad para la fabricación de piezas por inyección, especialmente en el sector de automoción. Por extrusión de doble tornillo se prepararon dos series de materiales conteniendo diferentes fracciones de talco disperso, el cual fue previamente tratado con agentes de acoplamiento de tipo silano organofuncional para inducir adhesión en la interfase. Se preparó una serie equivalente con talco sin tratar con fines comparativos. Las probetas para los ensayos se obtuvieron mediante moldeo por inyección. Además de caracterizar térmica y mecánicamente dichos materiales, se ha estudiado la influencia del porcentaje de partículas, del grado de adhesión en la interfase, y de la velocidad de solicitación, sobre los valores de la tenacidad y energía de fractura, y se han identificado los micromecanismos responsables de su deformación y fractura. Los resultados obtenidos se discuten asimismo sobre la base de las características morfológicas y microestructurales observadas.

The investigation was focused on the characterization of the fracture of plastic materials made up of isotactic polypropylene (homopolymer) containing different fractions of lamellar talc particles. Because of their rigidity and low cost, these materials are used at the present time for the manufacture of injection-molding parts, especially for the automobile sector. Different fractions of talc were dispersed into the polypropylene matrix by using a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. Two series of composites were prepared with different fractions of both untreated and silane-treated talc. The surface treatment of the talc with organofunctional silane was previously performed in order to promote better interfacial adhesion in the composite. Standard (ASTM) test specimens were prepared by injection-molding. The composites were characterized thermally and mechanically. The influence of the talc percentage, the adhesion degree at the interface and the loading rate on the fracture toughness values was also studied. The micromechanisms responsible for the material deformation and crack propagation could also be identified. The obtained results are discussed on a basis of the morphological and microstructure characteristics.
Estudio de las averías provocadas a las mercancías transportadas en contenedores DRY BOX.
Authors:   , Martín Mallofré Juan
Published: October 2023

Hasta mediados del siglo pasado, el transporte de mercancías por vía marítima se realizaba en lo que se conoce como transporte de mercancías en régimen de carga general. Para ello se utilizaban los clásicos buques mercantes con tres, cuatro o cinco bodegas de carga con los correspondientes entrepuentes para estibar las mercancías. Estos buques estaban provistos de puntales y grúas para realizar las operaciones de carga y descarga en los distintos puertos de escala.

En la decada de los años 50, a partir de la introducción del contenedor como unidad de transporte, es cuando el transporte de mercancías por vía marítima da un importante vuelco; aparecen los buques portcontenedores, en la actualidad con capacidades de porte de hasta 8000 contenedores, y todo ello en detrimento del transporte de mercancías en régimen de carga general, hoy en día en vías de desaparición. Contenedores de distintas clases se utilizan para transportar cualquier tipo de mercancías a cualquier parte del mundo por vía marítima, ferrocarril o carretera en lo que se conoce como transporte multimodal.

La presente tesis, estructurada en cinco capitulos, se basa en el estudio de las averías o daños provocados a las mercancías transportadas en el tipo de contenedor dry box de 20' o 40'. Si bien son múltiples las ventajas aportadas al transporte de mercancías con la aparición del contenedor, también es cierto que en ocasiones estas mercancías son entregadas al receptor dañadas por causas de diversa índole. Las consecuencias inmediatas a la recepción de mercancias dañadas son las reclamaciones de los receptores a los transportistas vía compañias de seguros.

Es el estudio de los puntos débiles de los contenedores dry box de 20 y 40' a partir de la investigación, trabajo de campo y análisis de los resultados de un proceso estadístico en el cual se han valorado más de 2000 daños provocados a contenedores, lo que finalmente aporta las conclusiones y soluciones prácticas con el fin de intentar minimizar los daños provacados a las mercancías durante las distintas fases del transporte multimodal.

Over the last few decades, dermoscopy has been showed to facilitate the non-invasive diagnosis of both benign and malignant skin tumors, yet literature data mainly comes from studies on light phototypes. However, there is growing evidence that skin neoplasms may benefit from dermoscopic assessment even for skin of color. This systematic literature review evaluated published data in dark-skinned patients (dermoscopic features, used setting, pathological correlation, and level of evidence of studies), also providing a standardized and homogeneous terminology for reported dermoscopic findings. A total of 20 articles describing 46 different tumors (four melanocytic neoplasms, eight keratinocytic tumors, 15 adnexal cutaneous neoplasms, seven vascular tumors, four connective tissue tumors, and eight cystic neoplasms/others) for a total of 1724 instances were included in the analysis. Most of them showed a level of evidence of V (12 single case reports and six case series), with only two studies featuring a level of evidence of IV (case-control analysis). Additionally, this review also underlined that some neoplasms and phototypes are underrepresented in published analyses as they included only small samples and mainly certain tones of “dark skin” spectrum (especially phototype IV). Therefore, further studies considering such limitations are required for a better characterization.

Dermoscopy has been showed to facilitate the non-invasive recognition of several infectious disorders (infectiouscopy) thanks to the detection of peculiar clues. Although most of the knowledge on this topic comes from studies involving light-skinned patients, there is growing evidence about its use also in dark phototypes. This systematic literature review summarizes published data on dermoscopy of parasitic, bacterial, viral and fungal dermatoses (dermoscopic findings, used setting, pathological correlation, and level of evidence of studies) and provides a homogeneous terminology of reported dermoscopic features according to a standardized methodology. A total of 66 papers addressing 41 different dermatoses (14 bacterial, 5 viral, 11 fungal infections, and 11 parasitoses/bites and stings) and involving a total of 1096 instances were included in the analysis. The majority of them displayed a level of evidence of V (44 single case reports and 21 case series), with only 1 study showing a level of evidence of IV (case-control analysis). Moreover, our analysis also highlighted a high variability in the terminology used in the retrieved studies. Thus, although promising, further studies designed according to a systematic and standardized approach are needed for better characterization of dermoscopy of infectious skin infections.

Hair and scalp disorders are of significant interest for physicians dealing with dark phototypes due to their prevalence and potential aesthetic impact resulting from a higher tendency for scarring. In order to facilitate their non-invasive diagnosis, several dermoscopic studies have been published, yet data are sparse and no systematic analysis of the literature has been performed so far. This systematic literature review summarizes published data on trichoscopy of hair and scalp diseases (trichoscopic findings, used setting, pathological correlation, and level of evidence of studies). A total of 60 papers addressing 19 different disorders (eight non-cicatricial alopecias, nine cicatricial alopecias, and two hair shaft disorders) were assessed, for a total of 2636 instances. They included one cross-sectional analysis, 20 case-control studies, 25 case-series, and 14 single case-reports, so the level of evidence was V and IV in 65% and 33% of cases, respectively, with only one study showing a level of evidence of III. Notably, although there is a considerable body of literature on trichoscopy of hair/scalp diseases, our review underlined that potentially significant variables (e.g., disease stage or hair texture) are often not taken into account in published analyses, with possible biases on trichoscopic patterns, especially when it comes to hair shaft changes. Further analyses considering all such issues are therefore needed.

يشكل الصراع الامريكي – الايراني ميزة طبعت العلاقات بين البلدين لعقود طويلة، ولم تفلح مساعي اطراف عديدة برغماتية من الطرفين لتحسينها، حيث ان التعارض بين الطرفين لا يقتصر فقط على التعارض في المصالح وانما في الافكار والمبادئ، فكلاهما يرى في الآخر عدو يهدد منظومة القيم التي يتبناها، ويهدد امنه واستقراره، وبعد الاحتلال الامريكي للعراق عام 2003 مثل الأخير نقطة تنافس جديدة للطرفين خاصة وما يمثله العراق من منطقة ستراتيجية وحيوية مهمة طالما سعت القوى الدولية الى السيطرة عليه.                                                                        

وقد كان لصراع الارادات الامريكي – الايراني أثره الكبير على العراق خاصة وانه شهد حالة من عدم الاستقرار وغياب الامن والذي استغل من قبل عدد من القوى لتمرير مشاريعها. والذي كان له آثاره على الامن القومي العراقي الذي ظل رهينة المشاريع الاقليمية والدولية مستغلين بذلك ضعف الواقع العراقي غير المستقر، وهو ما يوجب على الادارات العراقي ان تعي له وتسعى الى تقليله الى اقصى حد ممكن وجعل الارادة العراقية هي الاولى لتحقيق المصلحة القومية العليا دون اي تدخل اجنبي آخر.

Published: October 2023

La naissance des grands crus dans le courant du xviiie siècle est un thème important de l’histoire viticole, à l’heure actuelle essentiellement abordé sous l’angle de la construction sociale, en l’occurrence marchande, de la qualité. À partir d’une controverse publiée en 1781 et 1782 dans les pages du Journal encyclopédique entre les vignerons du village de Vosne-Romanée et un certain Jacquinot de Chasan, propriétaire d’une vigne dans la paroisse, cet article propose d’éclairer une nouvelle facette de cette construction. On voit comment un entrepreneur, en l’espace de quelques années seulement, entre 1770 et 1780 a pu construire et baptiser de toutes pièces une vigne de qualité, le « clos des Varoilles », et comment il a su en faire la promotion à travers l’écrit, profitant de l’explosion du goût pour la lecture des classes aisées au xviiie siècle. En somme, cet épisode montre un contrepoint intéressant à propos de la construction de la qualité. Cette dernière n’apparaît pas seulement modulée par la demande du marché, mais aussi, dans ce cas construite du côté de l’offre, par le discours de producteurs qui investissent dans le capital culturel de leur produit.

В статье рассмотрены дополнительные требования по безаварийному функционированию производственных объектов, защите работающего населения, распространяются на объекты нефтяных и газовых месторождений с высоким содержанием в них продукции сероводорода, что влечет за собой необходимость использования специальных средств защиты людей и оборудования, а также установление в таких месторождениях санитарно-защитных зон. Границы этих зон определяется по специальной методике и путем расчета содержания сероводорода в воздухе при рассеивании во время аварийного выброса. Данная статья может быть использована для проектирования бурения нефтяных и газовых скважин, а также в период эксплуатации сероводорода содержащих месторождений с целью обеспечения безаварийного функционирования производственных объектов, защиты работающего населения.

Тип телосложения коров, ориентированный на выносливость и высокую продуктивность играет важную роль для эффективного производства продукции молочного скотоводства Линейный метод оценки экстерьера дает возможность получить объективное представление об отдельных животных и стадах в целом, позволяет зоотехникам-селекционерам вести корректирующий подбор с целью устранения отдельных недостатков экстерьера коров и влиять на тип телосложения животных. Правильное применение результатов оценки типа телосложения при селекции молочного скота способствует повышению продуктивности коров, легкому протеканию отелов и увеличению продолжительности их жизни. Этот метод также дает возможность оценивать и ранжировать быков-производителей по типу телосложения их дочерей, проводить отбор по признакам молочности.

В настоящее время проблема увеличения производства мяса и улучшения его качества является одной из важных в животноводстве. По научно-обоснованным нормам питания потребность человека в мясных продуктах составляет 74 кг в год. При этом говядина в рационе человека должна составлять 18, 9 % от общего потребления мяса. Эта задача должна решаться путем укрепления кормовой базы, роста поголовья скота, улучшение его породности, повышения продуктивности, интенсивного выращивания молодняка, а также широким применением промышленного скрещивания коров и сверхремонтных телок с быками мясных пород. Однако результативность скрещивания определенных пород в разных зонах страны не одинакова. Вопросы промышленного скрещивания необходимо изучать в зональном аспекте с учетом породы животных, условий кормления помесного молодняка.

Natural resources are an invaluable asset for every country. Utilisation of natural resources can also provide inspiration and innovation in the development of SMEs which is currently one of the important sectors in the Indonesian economy. This research will review the literature related to the potential of natural resources that can be utilised in the development of SMEs as well as strategies that can be used to develop SMEs by utilising natural resources. The research in question is primarily qualitative in nature. The techniques employed to acquire information involve attentive observation and meticulous note-taking, followed by analytical procedures such as data reduction, visualisation, and inference. The results showed that the potential in natural resource utilisation is huge and can provide significant benefits to the local and national economy. SMEs that utilise natural resources effectively and sustainably can increase the added value of products, improve product competitiveness in the global market, and create new jobs. The government, industry players, and the community collaborate in order to make use of natural resources as a source of inspiration and innovation in the process of developing SMEs

We study the maximum and antimaximum principles for the p-Laplacian operator under Steklov boundary conditions with an indefinite weight $$\displaylines{ -\Delta_p u + |u|^{p-2}u = 0 \quad \text{in }\Omega, \cr |\nabla u|^{p-2}\frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} = \lambda m(x)|u|^{p-2}u + h(x) \quad\text{on }\partial\Omega, }$$ where \(\Omega\) is a smooth bounded domain of \(\mathbb{R}^N\), N>1. After reviewing some elementary properties of the principal eigenvalues of the p-Laplacian under Steklov boundary conditions with an indefinite weight, we investigate the maximum and antimaximum principles for this problem. Also we give a characterization for the interval of the validity of the uniform antimaximum principle.

Corruption can be defined as bad habitual behavior and is a common phenomenon in society. This concern arises because the perpetrators of corruption exist in both government and private organizations and may also involve leaders of organizations who are role models for the younger generation. One of the efforts to reduce the increase in corruption cases is to focus on the legal aspect. However, there have not been many preventive efforts through education that have the potential to eradicate the "culture of corruption". Anti-corruption education is a preventive effort to increase self-awareness and integrity in the face of corrupt practices. The purpose of this study is to determine whether anti-corruption education can develop students' sensitivity and awareness of corruption issues. The research method is to combine collective self-reflective action research with student-centered learning, conducted in small groups, and realized through critical reflective actions of group members as individuals, and measure the learning outcomes. The participants in this study amounted to 25 students in one class. The results obtained show that students are able to identify corrupt practices based on individual and collective experiences. Documented student corruption includes cheating, tardiness and fraud. Participants were also able to identify the impact of corrupt practices on individuals and (groups). Participants realized that corruption can create a "domino effect" of corrupt behavior over time. At the reflection stage, participants revealed the existence of integrity values in the form of honesty, responsibility, consistency of attitudes and behavior, and religious values that are believed to prevent corrupt practices. Activities carried out in the form of socialization as a form of change in the management of student organizations that are clean and anti-corruption.
