Mémoire communiste des Espagnols à Villeurbanne
Authors: Herrera Yonathan Alonzo
Published: April 2024

Pendant les années 1930, dans un contexte de montée du fascisme en Europe et de Guerre d’Espagne (1936-1939), le Parti communiste français (PCF) devient un pôle d’information et d’action pour soutenir l’immigration espagnole en France. Sa stratégie d’intervention à Villeurbanne a été développée et conçue de manière unitaire par la relation et les accords entre les communistes français et la coalition des partis du Front populaire, et de façon indépendante puisqu’elle se définissait principalement par les décisions prises au sein du PCF, en contradiction avec la politique nationale de non-intervention. Cette indépendance a contribué à la consolidation des communistes à Villeurbanne, commune de la banlieue lyonnaise. Ses institutions, notamment la mairie et le conseil municipal, se sont mobilisées en faveur de l’Espagne républicaine au travers de campagnes de sensibilisation et de propagande. Celles-ci visaient à recruter des volontaires prêts à combattre le franquisme, ainsi qu’à créer des réseaux d’aide aux exilés installés à Villeurbanne et aux Espagnols restés de l’autre côté des Pyrénées Les communistes villeurbannais ont également favorisé l’adhésion au PCF d’Espagnols nés à Villeurbanne. Ceux-ci ont joué un rôle clé dans la construction d’un tissu social entre la population immigrée locale et les citoyens français.

Authors: Schaeverbeke Marie
Published: April 2024

L’histoire récente du Cône sud, étudié ici comme l’ensemble géographique comprenant l’Argentine, le Chili et l’Uruguay, conduit à penser l’archive en relation avec la mémoire. En effet, l’archive, en tant que lieu et ensemble de documents, garde en mémoire des informations. Seront ici étudiés différents moments et acteurs de la constitution des archives, depuis les dictatures aux retours aux démocraties afin d’analyser différentes logiques : archivages, création, destruction d’archives, déclassification, reconnaissance de la valeur des archives, etc. Nous nous proposons ici d’offrir une réflexion sur le lien entre archives et mémoires, en étudiant divers moments et diverses échelles (nationales et internationales) afin de cerner les enjeux du geste archivistique, de l’institution et de la publicisation. Ce travail nous permettra de revenir sur les différentes difficultés mais aussi les différentes initiatives, qu’elles soient sociales, associatives ou institutionnelles, donnant à voir la constellation des acteurs de la mémoire ainsi que des archives. Ces dernières se présentent comme des objets à valeurs multiples, allant de la connaissance historique, à l’accès individuel à l’information et à la réparation symbolique.

Published: April 2024

In order to study the effect of population disturbance on the filling performance of the seed metering device, this paper uses the pneumatic precision seed metering device as the model, and uses EDEM software to simulate the population movement of three different seed metering devices. The bench test was carried out at different pressures at 12 km/h and at different speeds at 3.5 kPa. The results show that the designed seed disk with grooves has the most intense disturbance and the highest qualified rate. In order to verify the performance of the disk, full factor tests are carried out on the air pressure and speed, The test results show that when the operating speed is 10~12 km/h and the positive pressure is 3~3.5 kPa, the leakage rate is no higher than 5.42%, the replay rate is no higher than 0.42%, and the qualified rate is no lower than 94.58%. When the operating speed is 14 ~ 16 km/h and the positive pressure is 3.5~4 kPa, the leakage rate is not higher than 6.7%, the replay rate is not higher than 1.04%, and the pass rate is not lower than 93.12%. All the indicators are better than the national standard.

Published: April 2024

O objetivo deste estudo foi associar a percepção de barreiras para atividade física no lazer (AFL) com o status de peso de trabalhadores industriários. Participaram 885 trabalhadores de ambos os sexos (515 mulheres). Além das barreiras à AFL, foram analisados o IMC auto referido e variáveis sociodemográficas. Estratificadas pelo status de peso, motivos como falta de interesse em praticar (p = 0,004), falta de habilidades físicas (p = 0,044), preocupação com a aparência durante a prática (p < 0,001) e medo de lesionar-se (p = 0,002) foram significantemente mais frequentes entre os obesos, em comparação aos eutróficos. Ainda, quanto maior o IMC de mulheres, mais barreiras para AFL são percebidas (r = 0,119; p = 0,009). Concluiu-se que a composição corporal é um fator que está associado às AFL de trabalhadores obesos. Além disso, em mulheres, o impacto da relação entre a percepção de barreiras e o status de peso parece maior.

Published: April 2024

In the aim of realizing minimally invasive needles, a hollow microneedle mimicking a mosquito’s proboscis was developed by a thermal nanoimprinting method using the polylactic acid (PLA) of a biodegradable thermoplastic. A mold was proposed and developed, which consisted of a soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) body and a hard acrylic center pillar for creating the hole. Note that, if a mold is made of a single PDMS, the pillar cannot withstand the imprint pressure and tilts. By imprinting the mold against a PLA sheet, a hollow structure with a high aspect ratio of five (i.e., outer/inner diameter: 200/100 μm; height: 1,000 μm) with a sharp tip and jagged edge was successfully achieved.

Authors:   , Lama Supreet
Published: April 2024

Design briefing is an essential stage in the building project process (RIBA Plan of Work) and an important activity to ensure that the design and project meet the clients’ requirements, design principles and relevant building regulations. In order to deliver a successful building project, it is crucial to effectively understand and capture the overall requirements of the client, and to integrate design, construction, and operation experience in the early stage of design. However, there are some issues with the design briefing methods and techniques that have not been fully resolved. After reviewing some of the advantages of Building Information Modelling (BIM), this study aims to explore BIM-based design briefing methods and techniques through the development of a BIM-based design briefing prototype to promote the efficiency and quality of design briefing and eventually improve the performance of building projects. The study is based on the principles and research methods of software engineering. It started with a series of comprehensive interviews to capture the existing gaps, demands, functionalities and relevant datasets for this proposed BIM-based design briefing prototype tool. Based on the outcomes of the interviews as well as findings from literature, an integrated system framework has been developed in this project to illustrate the major functions and databases for the proposed tool. Eventually, a prototype was developed with Dynamo based on Autodesk Revit. It partially demonstrates the key functionality of this BIM�based design briefing tool. The analyses and discussions address the effect of this BIM-based design method & tool, and the impact on the design briefing process, the overall building project processes, and the potential improvements in the performance and sustainability of a building project delivery. This study has made potential contributions towards the identification of issues in the existing design briefing processes and methods, and improvement of the design briefing stage with the development of the system framework and the BIM-based design briefing method & techniques. Through this development of the prototype tool, this study demonstrates the implementation of BIM in design briefing and evaluates the demand and feasibility of BIM-based design briefing. Finally, this study explores the potential behind implementing BIM in AI-based design.

Published: April 2024

El diseño de políticas climáticas urbanas, crucial para la transición hacia la sostenibilidad, se ve moldeado por las características específicas de las ciudades, marcadas por desigualdades estructurales y un sesgo de género evidente. La planificación cuidadosa de estrategias para mitigar y adaptar las ciudades al cambio climático es esencial, ya que su implementación puede tener repercusiones no deseadas en la igualdad de género. La inclusión de criterios de género no solo potencia la efectividad en la elección y diseño de políticas climáticas, sino que también logra equilibrar propuestas técnicas con aquellas centradas en la gobernanza. La participación de equipos multidisciplinarios en la formulación de políticas emerge como un elemento clave para garantizar un diseño equitativo y eficiente en su implementación. Este enfoque coordinado y holístico facilita una acción efectiva ante la intersección entre el cambio climático y el género en las políticas urbanas. La convergencia de estas perspectivas se posiciona como esencial para abordar integralmente los desafíos interconectados del cambio climático y la igualdad de género en el marco de la transición justa hacia la sostenibilidad.

Lung cancer detection often relies on interpreting subtle nodules in CT scans, a task demanding precise segmentation tools beyond simple image classification models. While existing methods utilizing other architectures might achieve decent accuracy, they often struggle with limited CT scan datasets and scalability, hindering their real-world impact. Our paper addresses the imperative need for enhanced lung cancer detection by integrating the Efficient U-Net architecture, which is implemented to achieve better results on image classification tasks while using low computational resources, it means achieve high accuracy can be achieved with few parameters and makes computation less expensive compared to other models, with the Luna16 dataset. Our proposed model excels in feature extraction and overcoming vanishing gradients, ensuring sharper and more accurate nodule segmentation in CT scans. The Luna16 dataset, a diverse and annotated benchmark, facilitates comprehensive learning and adaptability to various nodule types and imaging conditions.

Authors: Patel Monal , Parekh Falguni
Published: April 2024

The forecasting of flooding plays a pivotal role in the field of hydrology and serves as an essential measure for preventing any possible flood damage. This study presents an analysis of the utilization of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to prevent floods in river basins. ANFIS represents a hybrid approach that combines elements of neural networks and fuzzy logic methodologies for the purpose of analyzing and comparing input and output data. Performance evaluation of ANFIS is based on the ratio of Discrepancy Ratio (D) along with the determination coefficient (R2), Coefficient of correlation (R), and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Results: The best ANFIS model was the one that gave the best results during training. The RMSE was 622.43, with a correlation coefficient of 0.93 and an R2 of 0.86. Nevertheless, its validation performance demonstrated slightly elevated RMSE figures and lower correlation and R2 values, with RMSE at 2847.99, R at 0.91, and R2 at 0.83. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model with three transfer functions (SIGMOID, HYPERBOLIC TANGENT, and LINEAR) is developed and evaluated based on R = correlation and MSE = mean squared error. Furthermore, the study also entails the development of a flood model for the research area, consisting of 38 cross profiles for a detailed analysis of the river’s profile and flood inundation. This analysis aims to provide precise recommendations for flood protection measures.

Aim: Endothelial dysfunction has been associated with both cerebrovascular pathology and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the connection between circulating endothelial cells and the risk of AD remains uncertain. The objective was to leverage data from the Framingham Heart Study to investigate various circulating endothelial subtypes and their potential correlations with the risk of AD. Methods: The study conducted data analyses using Cox proportional hazard regression and linear regression methods. Additionally, genome-wide association study (GWAS) was carried out to further explore the data. Results: Among the eleven distinct circulating endothelial subtypes, only circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) expressing CD34+CD133+ were found to be negatively and dose-dependently associated with reduced AD risk. This association persisted even after adjusting for age, sex, years of education, apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 status, and various vascular diseases. Particularly noteworthy was the significant association observed in individuals with hypertension and cerebral microbleeds. Consistently, positive associations were identified between CD34+CD133+ EPCs and specific brain regions, such as higher proportions of circulating CD34+CD133+ cells correlating with increased volumes of white matter and the hippocampus. Additionally, a GWAS study unveiled that CD34+CD133+ cells influenced AD risk specifically in individuals with homozygous genotypes for variants in two stem cell-related genes: kirre like nephrin family adhesion molecule 3 (KIRREL3, rs580382 CC and rs4144611 TT) and exocyst complex component 6B (EXOC6B, rs61619102 CC). Conclusions: The findings suggest that circulating CD34+CD133+ EPCs possess a protective effect and may offer a new therapeutic avenue for AD, especially in individuals with vascular pathology and those carrying specific genotypes of KIRREL3 and EXOC6B genes.
Assessing Strategic Business and IT Alignment: Validation of a Novel Model across Moroccan Enterprises
Authors: Benkhayat Aouatif
Published: April 2024

Strategic alignment between Business and IT remains a critical factor for organizational effectiveness, but measuring it often presents a complex challenge. This paper evaluates the model we proposed in previous work to measure the degree of alignment between Business strategy and IT initiatives. We applied the model to a selection of Moroccan companies. We compared the alignment scores obtained with those from the established Strategic Alignment Maturity Model (SAMM) using Cohen’s Kappa and simple linear regression for comparative analysis. This study demonstrates our model’s effectiveness in evaluating continuous scores and provides substantial concordance in categorical maturity assessments. Our validation confirms that our model can apply to various business contexts, paving the way for further refinement to evaluate business-IT alignment strategies.

BACKGROUND

The success of liver resection relies on the ability of the remnant liver to regenerate. Most of the knowledge regarding the pathophysiological basis of liver regeneration comes from rodent studies, and data on humans are scarce. Additionally, there is limited knowledge about the preoperative factors that influence postoperative regeneration.

AIM

To quantify postoperative remnant liver volume by the latest volumetric software and investigate perioperative factors that affect posthepatectomy liver regeneration.

METHODS

A total of 268 patients who received partial hepatectomy were enrolled. Patients were grouped into right hepatectomy/trisegmentectomy (RH/Tri), left hepatectomy (LH), segmentectomy (Seg), and subsegmentectomy/nonanatomical hepatectomy (Sub/Non) groups. The regeneration index (RI) and late regeneration rate were defined as (postoperative liver volume)/[total functional liver volume (TFLV)] × 100 and (RI at 6-months - RI at 3-months)/RI at 6-months, respectively. The lower 25th percentile of RI and the higher 25th percentile of late regeneration rate in each group were defined as “low regeneration” and “delayed regeneration”. “Restoration to the original size” was defined as regeneration of the liver volume by more than 90% of the TFLV at 12 months postsurgery.

RESULTS

The numbers of patients in the RH/Tri, LH, Seg, and Sub/Non groups were 41, 53, 99 and 75, respectively. The RI plateaued at 3 months in the LH, Seg, and Sub/Non groups, whereas the RI increased until 12 months in the RH/Tri group. According to our multivariate analysis, the preoperative albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score was an independent factor for low regeneration at 3 months [odds ratio (OR) 95%CI = 2.80 (1.17-6.69), P = 0.02; per 1.0 up] and 12 months [OR = 2.27 (1.01-5.09), P = 0.04; per 1.0 up]. Multivariate analysis revealed that only liver resection percentage [OR = 1.03 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.04] was associated with delayed regeneration. Furthermore, multivariate analysis demonstrated that the preoperative ALBI score [OR = 2.63 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.02; per 1.0 up] and liver resection percentage [OR = 1.02 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.04; per 1.0 up] were found to be independent risk factors associated with volume restoration failure.

CONCLUSION

Liver regeneration posthepatectomy was determined by the resection percentage and preoperative ALBI score. This knowledge helps surgeons decide the timing and type of rehepatectomy for recurrent cases.

Семена более устойчивы к стрессу, чем взрослые растения. Поэтому растения часто сохраняют свои семена в почве. В частности, устойчивые почвенные семенные банки позволяют не только эффективно продлить срок хранения семян и сохранить их всхожесть, но и продлить период прорастания семян, тем самым снижая риски, с которыми сталкиваются семена во время прорастания, и способствуя обновлению и восстановлению популяции. Однако семена Tamarix ramosissima и Salix purpurea имеют короткий период прорастания, могут быстро прорастать в широком диапазоне температур и имеют «оппортунистическую» стратегию прорастания, поэтому они не могут сформировать стабильный почвенный банк семян. Tamarix ramosissima, напротив, может давать высоковсхожесть семян как в весенний, так и в летний репродуктивный сезоны, а семена, полученные от летних цветков в августе-сентябре, сохраняют более 80% жизнеспособности в начале зимы (ноябрь, через 2 месяца после созревания). Исследования показали, что температура ниже нуля является оптимальной для сохранения семян многих деревьев и кустарников сухими в течение длительного периода времени, обеспечивая хорошую всхожесть семян. Когда следующей весной температура повысится и снег растает, жизнеспособные семена летних цветов гарантированно прорастут и успешно укоренятся ранней весной. Репродуктивная стратегия Tamarix ramosissima и Salix purpurea, связанная с непрерывным цветением и плодоношением, позволяет ему создать «живой банк семян», а его тактика быстрого прорастания гарантирует прорастание сеянцев в благоприятных условиях для репродуктивного успеха.

The purpose of this study is to explore the factors and benefits that can encourage the building management team to adopt the solar energy usage in Malaysia. Solar energy has been long introduced to the industry as a practical renewable technology, but the adoption rate is still low in Malaysia due to the dependence on oil and fossil fuels. Thus, costs and benefits of solar energy application and the best solar panels to be used in Malaysia have been explored for practitioners’ reference to improve the adoption rate. Mixed method was adopted in this study. First, quantitative method was adopted where 200 sets of online questionnaire survey were distributed to the public to collect the information about the solar energy application. Next, a semi-structured interview was carried out to further investigate the reliability of collected data. Based on the findings of the questionnaires, the most significant benefits of solar energy are renewable and clean source of energy, eco-friendly, and cost saving. The results indicated that Mono-crystalline silicon cell is the most popular type of solar panel that widely used in Malaysia. However, the adoption of solar energy is low due to the high initial cost and insufficient knowledge and awareness among citizens. Through the results of this study, the adoption of solar energy can be doubled in future as the results reveal the factors and benefits that could help the policy makers to utilize the implementation of solar energy in residential buildings that massively consuming the energy in daily basis.

As an introduction to this project, the growth-related traits, such as above-ground biomass and leaf area, are critical indicators to characterize the growth of indoor lettuce plants. Currently, non-destructive methods for estimating growth-related traits are subject to limitations in that the methods are susceptible to noise and heavily rely on manually designed features. It is also one of the problem statements in this project. Based on this project the next problem is manual control of nutrients may cause quality issues to the lettuce plant. If the nutrient supply is too much or less, it will disturb the growth of the lettuce plant either the lettuce plant is dead or stunted. This project is about urban farming growth monitoring system using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Internet of Things (IoT). In this project, a method for monitoring the growth of indoor lettuce plants was proposed by using digital images and an ANN using Deep Learning Architecture. DLA is mostly developed by the software of MATLAB or Python to insert and run the coding. DLA is mostly used for image detection, pattern recognition, and natural language processing through the graph for Neural Network. Next, the Internet of Things (IoT) is a medium to store images of indoor lettuce plant growth into the Cloud (Google Drive). Furthermore, it takes indoor lettuce plant images as the input, an ANN was trained to learn the relationship between images and the corresponding growth- related traits with other fixed parameters. The pH level parameters were controlled by other fixed parameters to take the images of indoor lettuce plant growth. The parameters used in this project are temperature and humidity. This helps to compare the results of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), widely adopted methods were also used. Concisely, this project is expected to develop the Deep Learning Architecture using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with digital images as a robust tool for the monitoring of the growth of indoor lettuce plants every 30 minutes per day. Generally, focused on an urban farming growth monitoring system using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and the Internet of Things (IoT).

The main aim of this study was to establish a framework to improve the service delivery on the maintenance of roads and storm drains in Lusaka by establishing the factors that impact the quality of service delivery and how these can be implemented by the Roads and Storm Drain Department on maintenance. The study included data collection and analysis of two additional councils such as Ndola City Council and Kafue Town Council to further substantiate the findings. The study considered four factors which included service quality as the dependent variable; and financing factors, administrative factors and institutional capacity as independent variables. The study made use of secondary data which was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire and followed a mixed methods research design. Data analysis was done using descriptive analysis and mean and standard deviation analysis for quantitative data alongside qualitative data analysis. In order to ensure an inclusive approach to improve the timely provision of road and storm drain maintenance in the bid to ensure improved service delivery, the study argues that first and foremost, stakeholder engagement should be prioritized. Matters should be considered on merit and based on urgency. The study further notes that locality and having the right logistics in terms of equipment and manpower available so the timeliness is a constrained factor. However, this can only be achieved given the adoption of a deliberate systematic and approved framework on roads and storm drain maintenance. The study further outlines that the framework should ensure to avoid tedious processes but should ensure to maintain high integrity of the processes through transparency and accountability. The study further finds that there is need for a clearly defined source of funding for matters relevant to road and storm drain maintenance, having a dedicated fund and should further have an emergency fund available solely for the purposes of roads and storm drain maintenance.
