Published: June 2020

This study was conducted in earthen ponds of shrimp hatchery belonging to the Basrah Agricultural Directorate, to find out the effect using of food additives omega-3 and Vitamin E on the performance of the growth and the quality of the produced larvae of the common carp Cyprinus carpio L.. Three treatments were used, the first treatment (T1) represented control without any food additives, the second treatment (T2) contained 5gm.Kg-1 diet of omega-3 fatty acids and the third treatment (T3) contained Vit. E was added at 200 mg.Kg-1 diet. The experiment lasted for 82 days. For each treatment three replicate were used and six common carp brood stock in each replicate. The productive parameters (body weight, weight gain, feed conversion rate, feed efficiency ratio% and specific and relative growth rate%) were measured. Results indicated an improvement in all production parameters and in the feed conversion efficiency of for T2 and T3, compared with the T1. The weight gain (526.39 gm.fish-1), feed conversion rate was 3.61 and feed efficiency ratio was 28.13% for the T2 which showed a significant differences (P<0.05) compared to the control, while T3 did not show significant differences (P>0.05 ) in comparison with both treatments T1 and T2; the specific and relative growth rate for T2 were 0.32%.day-1 and 30.81 %.day-1 respectively showed also a significant differences (P<0.05) compared with the control. These results showed that addition Vit. E to the diet improved the production parameters of common carp larvae better than in omega-3 and control treatments. The study concluded that addition omega-3 fatty acids at a concentration of 5gm Kg -1, and Vit. E at a concentration of 200 mg kg-1 to the diet enhanced the growth rates of common carp and improved larvae production.

In this study, Brachychiton populneus seedlings were subjected to drought stress for 90 Days and physiological and morphological characters analyzed to determine their response to water deficit. The growth characters including, height and diameter of shoots, the dry weight of shoots and roots as well as photosynthetic pigment and the leaves content of relative water content were measured to evaluate the effects of drought in the physiological growth of plant. The lowest means; 59 cm and 8 mm of shoot height and diameter respectively were recorded at 30% of water holding capacity of soil (WHC). Drought treated seedlings at both 60% and 30% WHC had lower dry weight of shoots; 9.54 and 8.24 g plant-1 respectively compared to the control. Consequently, the increase of drought conditions led to enhancement the growth of roots and roots to shoots ratio. The highest increase in the dry weight of roots and roots to shoots ratio were25.96 g plant-1 and 3.19 recorded under severe drought stress condition. Lowest amount of chlorophyll a; 2.94 mg g-1 F W recorded under 30% SWHC. It is found also the total content of chlorophyll in the leaves decreased significantly; 5.86 and 7.88 mg g-1 F W under both levels. While the highest ratio of chlorophyll a: b was 1.59 recorded at 60% SWHC. However, the lowest leave relative water content LRWC%; 86% was recorded under 30% SWHC. These findings may explain the characters of the early growth and physiological responses of, Brachychiton populneus to dehydration and facilitate the selection of drought-resistant tree families.

Published: June 2020

Cloud computing is a new technology which managed by a third party “cloud provider” to provide the clients with services anywhere, at any time, and under various circumstances. In order to provide clients with cloud resources and satisfy their needs, cloud computing employs virtualization and resource provisioning techniques. The process of providing clients with shared virtualized resources (hardware, software, and platform) is a big challenge for the cloud provider because of over-provision and under-provision problems. Therefore, this paper highlighted some proposed approaches and scheduling algorithms applied for resource allocation within cloud computing through virtualization in the datacenter. The paper also aims to explore the role of virtualization in providing resources effectively based on clients’ requirements. The results of these approaches showed that each proposed approach and scheduling algorithm has an obvious role in utilizing the shared resources of the cloud data center. The paper also explored that virtualization technique has a significant impact on enhancing the network performance, save the cost by reducing the number of Physical Machines (PM) in the datacenter, balance the load, conserve the server’s energy, and allocate resources actively thus satisfying the clients’ requirements. Based on our review, the availability of Virtual Machine (VM) resource and execution time of requests are the key factors to be considered in any optimal resource allocation algorithm. As a results of our analyzing for the proposed approaches is that the requests execution time and VM availability are main issues and should in consideration in any allocating resource approach.
Les enfants disparus du recensement français
Authors: Le Penven Eric 
Published: June 2020

La France a mis en œuvre, depuis 2004, une nouvelle méthode de recensement, un recensement dit « rénové », dont l’un des objets affiché était d’améliorer la qualité des résultats. Pourtant, depuis, un écart important et tendanciellement croissant s’observe entre le nombre de jeunes enfants de moins d’1 an selon le recensement et les statistiques de naissances précédemment enregistrées par les services d’état civil. Comment expliquer un tel phénomène ? Ce phénomène est-il géographiquement localisé ? Pour répondre à ces questions, sa géographie et les différentes causes possibles sont examinées
Diffusion des logiques néo-managériales et organisations policières
Authors: de Maillard Jacques 
Published: June 2020

Dans quelle mesure l'usage des instruments quantifiés et le suivi de la performance transforment-ils les modes de gouvernement des polices ? À partir d'une enquête au sein de la Préfecture de police de Paris et du Metropolitan Police Service de Londres, l'article questionne les effets des nouveaux dispositifs néo-managériaux sur deux dimensions de l'activité policière : les relations organisationnelles (capacité des dirigeants à contrôler l'activité vs. accroissement de l'autonomie) et la nature du mandat policier (focalisation sur la seule lutte contre la délinquance vs. approche plus large du mandat policier). Au total, ces dispositifs s'inscrivent principalement dans la réactivation, modernisée par les nouvelles technologies et une certaine sophistication managériale, des mécanismes bureaucratiques de contrôle et conduisent à une relative mise sous tension de l'organisation. Cependant, tant le style de management que la nature des indicateurs de performance diffèrent : dans les deux polices, l'acclimatation des techniques néo-managériales se traduit par des réinventions des modèles traditionnels.

Abstract
This research aims to explore the factors of electronic media affecting the buying behavior of consumers especially the females in Pakistan. It is generally believed that females build their buying behavior from print and electronic media specifically while taking impression from related news, television dramas, showbiz activities, commercials, advertisements, celebrities, and other tools. This study is an effort to measure the impact of effects of advertising aired on electronic media on women’s buying behavior in Karachi City. Overall, advertising has a great role in buying behavior. This quantitative research employs survey study as data collection tool from Karachi through random sampling. The researchers distributed 2000 questionnaires among females of academic departments of universities, housewives, journalists, teachers and students from various localities of Karachi. The results of the study showed that majority of the population was strongly affected by the commercials of various products aired on electronic media in Pakistan. A large number of females also opinionated that electronic media exploited their consumer and privacy rights and negatively led them to buy products which were not actually as per their requirements. The study was limited to the City of Karachi alone due to multiple factors including limited timeframe, however, this study may open new phenomena pertaining to this arena.

Published: June 2020

The microstructure and electrochemical properties of additively manufactured 22Cr duplex stainless steel (DSS) and 25Cr super duplex stainless steel (SDSS) produced by laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) are reported herein. The as-built microstructure is fully ferritic, while a 50/50 ferrite-austenite phase ratio was achieved by post heat treatment. The electrochemical response of DSS and SDSS prepared by L-PBF was investigated using cyclic potentiodynamic polarization (CPP) tests in 0.6 M NaCl solution and compared with the wrought counterparts. Both 22Cr DSS and 25Cr SDSS prepared by L-PBF showed comparable electrochemical response to their corresponding wrought alloys at room temperature. The findings herein demonstrate the feasibility of additive manufacturing as applied to DSS.
Thinking with Soils
Authors: Counihan Carole 
Published: June 2020

This book presents a novel and systematic social theory of soil, and is representative of the rising interest in ‘the material’ in social sciences. Bringing together new modes of ‘critical description’ with speculative practices and methods of inquiry, it contributes to the exploration of current transformations in socioecologies, as well as in political and artistic practices, in order to address global ecological change.
The chapters in this edited volume challenge scholars to attend more carefully to the ways in which they think about soil, both materially and theoretically. Contributors address a range of topics, including new ways of thinking about the politics of caring for soils; the ecological and symbiotic relations between soils; how the productive capacities and contested governance of soils are deployed as matters of political concern; and indigenous ways of knowing and being with soil.

Waarom leidt de strijd voor rechtvaardigheid tot meer rouwklachten?
Verlies van werk heeft een grote impact op psychische welzijn van mensen, wat zelfs kan leiden tot klachten rouw, depressie en angst. Hoe meer het ontslag als onrechtvaardig en onverwacht wordt ervaren, hoe groter de kans is dat de persoon vastloopt in het rouwproces bij baanverlies. De strijd voor rechtvaardigheid gaat vaak hand in hand met letselschade. Deze strijd kan ertoe leiden tot de persoon langer blijft hangen in boosheid en meer gebruik maakt van onhandige copingstijlen, en dat kan een negatieve impact hebben om de mentale gezondheid en belemmerend werken in de zoektocht naar een andere baan. Tijdige herkenning van signalen dat de persoon vast dreigt te lopen, kan dan ook veel leed besparen.

Mogelijkheden voor het beter waarborgen van het verschoningsrecht door beheerst gebruik van machine learning
Opsporingsdiensten moeten vaak geheimhouderstukken filteren uit grote hoeveelheden data. Auteurs bespreken de uitgangspunten en relevante opsporingsbelangen bij een dergelijke ‘schoning’. Artikel 98 Sv en artikel 126aa Sv vullen die uitgangspunten en belangen verschillend in. Machine learning is in staat om op basis van objectief gekozen startsets de schoning (deels) geautomatiseerd uit te voeren. Deze methode voorkomt dat opsporingsambtenaren onnodig kennisnemen van de inhoud van geheimhouderstukken en zorgt dat het opsporingsonderzoek niet onnodig vertraagt. Auteurs presenteren de eerste resultaten van een dergelijke schoning in Nederland, en bespreken hoe machine learning ook in het huidig wettelijk kader kan worden ingepast.

Interviews in interne onderzoeken vanuit advocatuurlijk perspectief
In praktisch ieder intern onderzoek rijst de vraag of interviews met werknemers moeten worden gehouden. Dat is begrijpelijk. Interviews zijn een van de meest krachtige instrumenten in de gereedschapskist van onderzoekende advocaten. Tegelijkertijd kleven aan interviews de nodige nadelen en zijn zij niet zonder risico’s voor het onderzoek. Een doordachte voorbereiding en uitvoer zijn cruciaal om de risico’s te minimaliseren en de waarde van interviews te maximaliseren. Strategie, ethiek en techniek staan daarbij centraal.

Abstract
BRT (Bus Rapid Transport) vehicles are a frequented microenvironment, it consists of exclusive lines for the transport of passengers in articulated buses. In many large cities of developing countries BRT vehicles are diesel operated buses emitting important amounts of PM2.5, a pollutant related with many health affectations. Evidence of high exposure levels have been reported onboard BRT vehicles, but detailed analysis of self-pollutions has not been developed. In this research, measurements of PM2.5 inside the BRT system of Bogota called TransMilenio were performed. Speed and location data were recorded in real-time. In-situ measurements were performed in 3 lines of the system: Av. El Dorado, Av. Caracas and Calle 80, in different seat locations inside the buses. PM2.5 concentrations above 120 µg/m3 were measured for all the cases studied. Values above the 24 h WHO (World Health Organization) recommendation were registered. Trips were determined to be between 20 to 40 minutes per passenger. A CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) model was implemented to simulate the exhaust emissions from the buses, 3 traffic velocities of BRT were evaluated: 20, 32 and 60 km/h. Measurements and simulation results were used to calculate the self-pollution ratios inside the vehicles. The rear of the buses was identified as the most polluted section onboard with a ratio of self-pollution about 35% average.

Published: June 2020

Chemical processes that could occur in the anode chamber of an electrolytic cell divided by a semi-permeable membrane when direct current passes through a water solution of weak mineralization are described. The interest concerns the possibility of a formation of chemical substances with strong oxidative action as O2 and H2O2, due to nascent oxygen. These substances can destroy the structure of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. The preservation of these properties for a long period of time without specific storage requirements makes the anolyte cheap and effective disinfection and therapeutic means.

Published: June 2020

Alpha emitting radionuclides have potential for the therapy of cancers because of their high linear energy transfer, and short range biologic effectiveness. Alpha emitter 225Ac(T1/2 = 10.0 days) is a potent nuclide for targeted radionuclide therapy. 225Ac excitation functions via 232Th (p,7np)225Th→225Ac, 232Th (p,6n2p)225Ac, 232Th (p,4nα)225Ac, 232Th (p,5n3p)225Th→ 225Ac, and 232Th (p,3nαp)225Ra→225Ac reactions were calculated by Empire 3.2 code up to 200MeV and compared with existing data. No single nuclear level density with a pre-equilibrium model produce results which agree with the existing experimental data all through the energy range. However, a hybrid of the different nuclear level densities with the Hybrid Monte Carlo Simulation (HMS) and the exciton PCROSS pre-equilibrium models at different energy range provide results which are in good agreement with the existing experimental data. Hence the preferred production route for the direct and indirect production of 225Ac has also been suggested.

Published: June 2020

AbstractThe efficient genesis of pluripotent cells or therapeutic cells for regenerative medicine involves several external manipulations and conditioning protocols, which drives down clinical applicability. Automated programming of the genesis by microscale physical forces and chronological biochemistry can increase clinical success. The design and fabrication of nested polysaccharide droplets (millimeter‐sized) with cell sustaining properties of natural tissues and intrinsic properties for time and space evolution of cell transformation signals between somatic cells, pluripotent cells and differentiated therapeutic cells in a swift and efficient manner without the need for laborious external manipulation are reported. Cells transform between phenotypic states by having single and double nested droplets constituted with extracellular matrix proteins and reprogramming, and differentiation factors infused chronologically across the droplet space. The cell transformation into germ layer cells and bone cells is successfully tested in vitro and in vivo and promotes the formation of new bone tissues. Thus, nested droplets with BMP‐2 loaded guests synthesize mineralized bone tissue plates along the length of a cranial non‐union bone defect at 4 weeks. The advantages of sequenced somatic cell reprogramming and differentiation inside an individual hydrogel module without external manipulation, promoted by formulating tissue mimetic physical, mechanical, and chemical microenvironments are shown.

AbstractTargeting areas of inflammation offers potential therapeutic and diagnostic benefits by maximizing drug and imaging marker on‐target effects while minimizing systemic exposure that can be associated with adverse side effects. This strategy is particularly beneficial in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here an inflammation‐targeting (IT) approach based on heparin‐coated human serum albumin nanoparticles (HEP‐HSA NPs) that utilize the increased intestinal permeability and changes in electrostatic interaction at the site of intestinal inflammation is described. Using small‐molecule and biologic drugs as a model for drug combination, the HEP‐HSA NPs demonstrate the capacity to load both drugs simultaneously; the dual‐drug loaded HEP‐HSA NPs exhibit a higher anti‐inflammatory effect than both of the single‐drug loaded NPs in vitro and selectively bind to inflamed intestine after enema administration in vivo in a murine model of colitis. Importantly, analyses of the physicochemical characteristics and targeting capacities of these NPs indicate that HEP coating modulates NP binding to the inflamed intestine, providing a foundation for future IT‐NP formulation development.
