Enhanced Optical Frequency References for Next Generations of Gravity Missions
Authors: Wegehaupt Timm , Sachit Sariga , Heinzel Gerhard , Braxmaier Claus , Grosse Jens
Published: September 2022

Aboard GRACE-FO, the first and up to now only intersatellite laser ranging interferometer (LRI) was launched in 2018. Developed as a technology demonstrator, it exceeds the performance of the actual main instrument, which is based on microwave ranging (MWI), by several orders of magnitude. Therefore, the LRI will most likely be the prime technology for next generations of gravity missions, opening up further optimization opportunities, but also new challenges.

In a future mission, the central axis will not be occupied by a microwave system, allowing new interferometer layouts as e.g. an on-axis design. Beside the layout, the frequency reference of the laser plays a crucial role. Currently, optical cavities that provide high frequency stability are used, while at the same time only small portion of the available size- mass- and power-budget is required for the laser stabilization unit. However, relative frequency references also bring some disadvantages that make absolute references a possible alternative, especially when the MWI is no longer available. Relative references are dependent on external environmental influences, which can be suppressed on short timescales by a well-designed setup, while on long timescales they become apparent and influence the so-called scale-factor. The scale-factor corresponds to the absolute frequency of the laser and affects the conversion of the phase measurement into a length change and therefore the performance of the LRI. Absolute frequency references based on molecular iodine or hybrid references consisting of a cavity and a molecular iodine spectroscopy unit would suppress these dependencies and will simultaneously ease up the initial acquisition process of the LRI.

We will discuss possible alternatives to optical cavities for next generation gravity missions and will outline the advantages and disadvantages of the different technologies. In addition, we analyze proposed technologies that would allow a readout of the absolute frequency of optical cavities in space and underline these with first measurement results from the laboratory.
Future changes in the mean and variability of extreme rainfall indices over the Guinea Coast and role of the Atlantic equatorial mode
Authors: Worou Koffi , Fichefet Thierry , Goosse Hugues
Published: September 2022

Abstract. The occurrence of climate extremes could have dramatic impacts on various sectors such as agriculture, water supply, and energy production. Over the last decades, less frequent and more intense rainfalls have been observed in the coastal areas of West Africa (the Guinea Coast). Part of this variability in the extreme rainfalls can be related to the Atlantic equatorial mode (AEM) whose positive phases are associated with an enhancement of the mean rainfall over the Guinea Coast and an increase in the intensity and frequency of rainfall events. The climate models that participate in the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) simulate reasonably well the rainfall extremes over the Guinea Coast and West Africa. However, less attention has been paid to the evaluation of the modelled rainfall extremes associated with the AEM under different climate conditions, while the variability of the AEM is expected to decrease in the future. Here, we use historical and SSP5-8.5 simulations from 24 models that contributed to CMIP6 to investigate the near-term, mid-term and long-term future links between the AEM and the extreme rainfall events over the Guinea Coast. The extreme rainfall responses to the AEM are reasonably well represented over the 1995–2014 period, although there are substantial biases in their magnitudes. Future changes indicate an increase in the mean and variability of the majority of the extreme indices over the Guinea Coast. The average across the 12 indices of their percentage of long-term changes in mean and variability equals to +10.46 % and +16.44 %, respectively. By contrast, the decreased variability of the AEM in a warmer climate leads to a reduced magnitude of the rainfall extreme responses associated to AEM over the Guinea Coast. The multi-model median values of the long-term changes in the variance explained by the AEM for the different extreme indices range between −8.25 % and −64.97 %. As a consequence, while in absolute there is a projected increase in the variability of most of the extreme rainfall indices, the contribution of the AEM to this variability weakens in a warmer future climate.
Probabilistic temporal extrapolation of fatigue damage of offshore wind turbine substructures based on strain measurements
Authors: Hübler Clemens , Rolfes Raimund
Published: September 2022

Abstract. Substructures of offshore wind turbines are becoming older and beginning to reach their design lifetimes. Hence, lifetime extensions for offshore wind turbines are becoming not only an interesting research topic but also a relevant option for industry. To make well-founded decisions on possible lifetime extensions, precise fatigue damage predictions are required. In contrast to the design phase, fatigue damage predictions can be based not only on aeroelastic simulations but also on strain measurements. Nonetheless, strain-measurement-based fatigue damage assessments for lifetime extensions have been rarely conducted so far. Simulation-based approaches are much more common, although current standards explicitly recommend the use of measurement-based approaches as well. For measurement-based approaches, the main challenge is that strain data are limited. This means that measurements are only available for a limited period and only at some specific hotspot locations. Hence, spatial and temporal extrapolations are required. Available procedures are not yet standardised and in most cases not validated. This work focusses on extrapolations in time. Several methods for the extrapolation of fatigue damage are assessed. The methods are intended to extrapolate fatigue damage calculated for a limited time period using strain measurement data to a longer time period or another time period, where no such data are available. This could be, for example, a future period, a period prior to the installation of strain gauges or a period after some sensors have failed. The methods are validated using several years of strain measurement data from the German offshore wind farm Alpha Ventus. The performance and user-friendliness of the various methods are compared. It is shown that fatigue damage can be predicted accurately and reliably for periods where no strain data are available. Best results are achieved if wind speed correlations are taken into account by applying a binning approach and if a least some winter months of strain data are available.

Authors: Aurélio Paganella Marco , Cristina Franco Amaral Silvia
Published: September 2022

O objetivo do estudo é compreender como o Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE) é executado nas escolas municipais da região sul da capital paulista, a partir das suas diretrizes institucionais. Para tanto, realizou-se entrevistas semiestruturadas com Professores de Educação Física, um representando a equipe Docente, e com Coordenadores Pedagógicos ou Diretores, um representando a gestão da Unidade. Os dados foram analisados no sentido de correlacionar as orientações do PSE com o que efetivamente ocorre na prática cotidiana. Constatou-se que, por um lado, o Município aderiu ao programa, mas, por outro, os agentes pesquisados não receberam (in)formações, de forma que o PSE não foi implantado na região estudada, havendo, assim, um hiato entre a formulação e a execução desta política pública.

Authors: Usman Muhammad , Saboor Abdul , Mohsin Abdul Qayyum , Afzal Anila
Published: September 2022

Livestock is adopted and managed extensively in rural and peri-urban areas of different countries as a source of livelihood and to fulfill a family's nutritional requirements. Its management is a full-time job for performing special activities requiring the involvement of both men and women. Women’s role is very important, especially in small-scale production to generate family income and cater the nutritional needs. The current study aims to analyse the role of women in livestock production. For this purpose, a sample of 456 respondents was collected from Punjab's northern, central, and southern regions. Multiple regression analysis is used to assess the impact of women's participation on livestock income. The assessment shows that overall women's participation in livestock production activities was greater compared to men in all regions of Punjab except marketing. Similarly, women’s age, livestock ownerships, participation in livestock activities, access to input markets, and women’s education are the factors that have a positive and significant impact on livestock income. Women's participation can be much more productive by increasing women's empowerment in resources like livestock ownership, access to easy credit and opportunities like market access, access to non-farm income opportunities, and access to training and information.

Others Here with Us: Prince’s Relationship with His Black Audience
Authors: Cummings Kamilah
Published: September 2022

During the mid-1980s, as Prince cemented his position among the biggest pop stars of all time, some critics bandied about an unsubstantiated theory that once he achieved crossover fame, Prince abandoned his Black audience. However, Prince’s presence in Black media, his performance on Billboard charts, and his own words refute this misconception. It is impossible to fully understand or appreciate the legendary first decade of Prince’s career without acknowledging the importance of his Black audience. Yet, his relationship with this audience remains largely ignored by the white critical and scholarly establishments as well as the Prince Estate. Therefore, this article argues that while the massive crossover success of 1999 and Purple Rain allowed Prince to expand his audience, his reign would have been impossible without the ardent support of his Black audience—his first and most loyal audience.
From Dirty Mind to Dirty Computer: Prince’s Profound Influence on Janelle Monáe
Authors: Clifford Natalie
Published: September 2022

I argue that the groundwork Prince laid in his first decade created a foundation for queer and gender expansive Black artists like Janelle Monáe to be successful. First, I explore how Prince and Monáe center sex positivity and pleasure in their respective work. Second, I highlight their shared belief in artists’ responsibility to reflect the times politically, as Nina Simone so famously stated. Third, I illuminate how both artists insist upon navigating society through pathways grounded in opposition to racial capitalism, with a vision of how we can collectively build a more just world. In this third section, I focus on adrienne maree brown’s book Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good. Regarding methodology, I analyze lyrics, imagery, and historical context from both artists’ albums. This interdisciplinary exploration is valuable to artist-activists within critical race studies, media studies, gender and sexuality studies, and anyone dedicated to preserving the legacy of Prince.
Comedy as a Practice of Care
Authors: Leng Kirsten
Published: September 2022

This article considers comedy as a practice of care. Its analysis focuses on major US late-night talk shows produced during the early months of the coronavirus pandemic. Drawing on interdisciplinary feminist scholarship about care and autobiographical reflection, I argue that comedy plays important roles in cultivating capacities for physical, emotional, and intellectual development; maintaining social ties; supporting well-being; and sustaining reproductive activities. I further suggest that bringing comedy and care together within a common frame can expand our understanding of the relationship between performer and audience as well as our definition of what constitutes care.

Stability characterization of a fractional-order viral system with the non-cytolytic immune assumption
Authors: Naim Mouhcine , Sabbar Yassine , Zeb Anwar
Published: September 2022

This article deals with a Caputo fractional-order viral model that incorporates the non-cytolytic immune hypothesis and the mechanism of viral replication inhibition. Firstly, we establish the existence, uniqueness, non-negativity, and boundedness of the solutions of the proposed viral model. Then, we point out that our model has the following three equilibrium points: equilibrium point without virus, equilibrium state without immune system, and equilibrium point activated by immunity with humoral feedback. By presenting two critical quantities, the asymptotic stability of all said steady points is examined. Finally, we examine the finesse of our results by highlighting the impact of fractional derivatives on the stability of the corresponding steady points.

Published: September 2022

Emergency events are one of the most important factors that affect the formation of the mental image among the public towards the institutions due to the value they play in forming opinions and forming real impressions towards them. It is also considered an important factor in creating positive behavior of individuals toward the institution. The appearance of e-learning and the use of electronic applications is a qualitative leap in the method of education. The method of e-learning was adopted, especially in the Covid-19 crisis, when education stopped as a result of the epidemic, forcing to rely on the e-learning mechanism and making it an alternative to traditional education for the sustainability of education for generations by adopting the means and methods that were used in educational institutions (schools) in the application of e-learning mechanisms.

Valproic acid (VPA) is one of the most commonly used antiepileptic drugs and has broad indications for various types of epilepsy. Despite its broad spectrum, one of the most widely reported side effects of VPA is weight gain. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of demographic characteristics on genetic factors of CYP2C19 polymorphism in gender and weight changes. The research method used is analytic observational with a cross sectional study design involving two different groups and compared at the same time. Statistical analysis in this study using multiple linear regression. In observational results, it was known that the type of valproic acid (regular valproic acid and extended release) and free testosterone levels had a statistically significant effect on CYP2C19 polymorphisms (p < 0.05) in the body group. Meanwhile, in the gender group, it was found that female gender with a family history of obesity had a significant influence on the incidence of CYP2C19 polymorphisms, while characteristics such as age, dose, duration of therapy, type of epilepsy, free-testosterone levels, and total estradiol levels did not have a significant effect on CYP2C19 polymorphisms. Cytochrome (CYP) P450 enzymes play an important role in VPA metabolism).

Ilegalidades no comércio online de abelhas sem ferrão no Brasil
Authors: Carvalho Antônio Freire
Published: September 2022

• Abelhas sem ferrão são comercializadas pela internet no Brasil. Este comércio tem misturado populações e introduzido espécies, proporciona a disseminação de simbiontes e doenças e majoritariamente não cumpre legislações nacionais.• Ao menos 33 espécies de abelhas sem ferrão têm sido visadas pelo comércio digital; oito outras não foram confirmadas. Todas as transações encontradas estão na internet de superfície e a maioria dos vendedores não cumprem os requerimentos legais. Tais resultados sugerem pouca necessidade de anonimato dos vendedores, um fato que sustenta conclusões sobre a recorrente falta de aplicação de leis ambientais contra o comércio ilegal de vida selvagem no país.• Zonas geográficas críticas no Brasil, onde se concentram os vendedores de colmeias sem ferrão sem autorização, estão principalmente na Mata Atlântica. Medidas políticas urgentes e avaliações científicas são necessárias tanto para a conservação das abelhas quanto para o controle do risco de patógenos. A estratégia mais promissora para evitar as ameaças relacionadas ao movimento das abelhas é a sensibilização dos meliponicultores.

O dark tourism surge como uma alternativa de turismo, sendo apresentado sob a forma de experiências carregadas de misticismo e simbologias, remetendo às memórias, histórias e contos, tematizados sob o aspecto sombrio e passados de geração para geração. Diversos autores como: Seaton (1996), Blom (2000), Tarlow (2005), Stone (2009; 2012), Sharpley (2009), interpretam as dimensões compreendidas no âmbito do dark tourism, que cooperam nas fundamentações teóricas contidas neste trabalho. Nesse contexto, coloca-se em cena a cidade de Recife, Pernambuco (PE - Brasil), que evoca narrativas assombradas, construindo o imaginário individual e coletivo, edificado pela obra do escritor pernambucano Gilberto Freyre, que concretiza o olhar do dark nas ruas, vielas e prédios do Recife antigo. Neste cenário imaginativo e pavoroso, o presente artigo objetiva avaliar o filme e o website “Recife Assombrado” como ferramentas potenciais de promoção para o segmento de dark tourism em Recife. Este estudo de caráter qualitativo e descritivo, obteve resultados por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com o diretor do longa-metragem e com os produtores do website, tendo sido realizado entre os meses de maio e junho de 2020. Como principais resultados, percebeu-se que as ferramentas em estudo têm potencial contributivo para a promoção do dark tourism em Recife. Elas têm promovido o imaginário das pessoas que acessam o conteúdo disponibilizado, uma vez que os materiais dispostos na plataforma funcionam como subsídios para criar produtos turísticos como os ofertados pela agência de turismo, tais como tour e eventos mal-assombrados. Sugere-se, pois, que novos estudos sejam feitos, tendo como base a relação do poder público e privado pelas iniciativas estudadas nesta pesquisa, bem como estudos que possam focar nas empresas que ofertam serviços e na demanda turísticas deste segmento em Recife.

Social forestry (SF) in Bangladesh is designed as a development strategy to promote the bio-socioeconomic conditions through poverty alleviation and better distribution of income. Success of this program depends on the active participation of the target people. SF program was initiated in Sakhipur Upazila of Tangail district in 1988-89. The study revealed that people are participating in SF activities organized by government and non-government organizations (NGOs) and are getting different types of benefits from the program. Of the respondents 80% are engaged in Forest Department’s and 20% are engaged in NGOs’ SF program. Among the participants 90% are male and 10% are female. Of the participants 80% are farmers, 11% are service holders and only 9% are housewives. In the study area participatory woodlot program involved majority (62%) of the participants, followed by sal forest coppice system (26%) and agroforestry (12%). SF plantation has increased overall income of the participants and now they are very careful to protect their plots against damages.

The fecundity of Glossogobius giuris (Hamilton) was estimated from 60 gravid females collected from local markets of Khulna during May to July 2005. Total length (TL), standard length (SL), total weight (W) and gonad weight (GW) were recorded and standard methods were used to calculate the fecundity and length-weight relationship. The fecundity of the species ranged from 39,173 (total length of 14.4 cm, body weight 22.79 g and egg weight 1.49 g ) to 557,892 (total length of 24.06 cm, body weight 104.56 g and egg weight 11.5 g). The mean fecundity was recorded as 280,315.89±102,223.51. The total gonad weight varied from 1.49 g to 11.5 g where the weight of the left lobe and right lobe of the ovary varied significantly (p<=0.05; t-value= - 2.536, equal variances assumed) from 0.7 g to 4.98 g and 0.71 g to 5.06 g respectively. The mean total egg weight was calculated at 5.99±1.82 g where the mean left lobe was calculated at 2.75±0.91 g and right lobe 3.17±0.90 g. The condition factor varied from 4.47 to 9.69 and the mean value was 8.09±0.72. The regression equation for total length and fecundity of the fish was estimated as F = 39,515.10 T – 531,548.17 (r = 0.683), Standard length and fecundity estimated as F = 50,366.48 S –502,295.20 (r = 0.664), Body weight and fecundity estimated as F = 4,430.22 W – 35,322.55 (r = 0.715), Gonad weight and fecundity estimated as F = 51,556.05 G – 28,762.62 (r =0.918), fecundity and condition factor estimated as F = 213,986.53 + 8,203.75 cf (r = 0.058). The diameter of the eggs of the left lobe varied from 5.3 to 8.6 µm with a mean of 7.4±0.6 µm while the right lobe varied from 5.1 to 8.9 µm with a mean of 7.2±0.8 µm. At 5% level of significance, log value of fecundity-gonad weight and fecundity-condition factor showed the most and the least significant relationship respectively.

Small Scale Water Resources Development Sector Project (SSWRDSP), with the aim of flood control, drainage and irrigation has been introduced during 1996-2002 in Bangladesh by the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) of ministry of local government and rural development. This study was undertaken for assessing the impacts of saline water subprojects on fisheries production. The study was carried out in two saline water subprojects in Khulna district based on primary and secondary data. The primary data was taken through Focus Group Discussion. Different indicators viz. fisheries area, fish species, fish production and fishers were used to evaluate the impacts of the subprojects on fisheries development. The year 1999 has been considered as the pre-project and 2004 as the post-project study period. Both the diversity and production of open water capture fishery have been decreased in the subprojects area. Different fish species have become rare in all the subprojects. However, the culture fishery has increased due to implementation of the project. The capture fishery in the Bagachra-Badurgacha Flood Control and Drainage (FCD) subproject area has totally been lost but the production of culture fishery has increased by 13%. In Narayankhali FCD subproject the production of capture fishery has been decreased by 87.8% while the production of culture fishery has increased by 7.10%. The number of fish farmers has increased but the number of fishers has declined in all the subproject areas. Some suggestions regarding the development of culture fishery and protection of capture fishery have been suggested.

Published: September 2022

Steady and unsteady solutions of the thermal flows through a curved duct with various aspect ratios are numerically studied by using the spectral method over a wide range of the Dean number, Dn. A temperature difference is applied across the vertical sidewalls for the Grashof number Gr = 100, 500 and 1000, where the outer wall is heated and the inner wall is cooled. Firstly, steady solutions are obtained by the Newton-Raphson iteration method. As a result, we obtain multiple branches of steady solutions with multi-vortex solutions on various branches. Then, we perform time evolution calculations with a view to study the non-linear behavior of the unsteady solutions. It is found that time periodic solutions appear when Dn or Gr is increased. If they are increased further, the chaotic solution is obtained. For large aspect ratios, however, chaotic solutions occur for small Dn or for small Gr.

An investigation on variation (temporal and spatial) in the contents of some selected inorganic nutrients (nitrite, nitrate, ammonium, phosphate and silicate) was carried out in the lower Meghna river estuary, Bangladesh during September 2001 to May 2002 (covering an annual cycle). All the nutrients studied showed irregular pattern of temporal and spatial fluctuations where most of the nutrients showed peak values during premonsoon and trough values during monsoon. A decreasing trend in nutrient concentrations was observed towards the sea in all the seasons.
