Anne Carson’s Nox: Materiality and memory
Authors: Rapatzikou Tatiani G. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
This article focuses on Anne Carson’s Nox, a boxed book published in 2010. What makes it special is the physicality of its format as well as its multi-layered and polymorphous text that due to its fold-out construction invites readers to investigate the missing words and phrases, or the spaces left between its pasted documents so as to confront the experiences narrated and shared through them. This article discusses how Nox’s design allows an examination of the means by which stories can be told and traumatic events can be treated. In this way, the physicality of Carson’s Nox both preserves and enhances the memory of the personal experience it attempts to communicate, due to the various spatial arrangements it proposes of its verbal and visual materials.
To Tenant: Situating the Realtor Within
Authors: Fleet Darren 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
Under the guise of national and international capital flows, Vancouverites are reconstituted in the image of real estate speculation. This emerging subjectivity is a lens through which homelessness is criminalized, poverty is rationalized, and disruption is fetishized. This photo-essay steps into this gaze, offering a critical perspective on the transformation of housing from a discourse of rights to the language of finance.
Border, Theory, Contract: An Interview with Angela Mitropoulos
Authors: O’Brien Sean 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
This interview with Angela Mitropoulos explores contemporary questions of migration, border control, financial speculation, critical theory and political practice. Mitropoulos is a political theorist, academic and activist based in Sydney, Australia, whose work has examined shifts to post-Fordism and neoliberalism through a critical history of the contract and in relation to the shifting politics of the household. The interview also addresses her recent work, in her capacities as both an academic and an activist, which continues to confront the complex and evolving relationships between political economy, border control, and critical theory.

Abstract
In this paper we continue to advance the theory regarding the Riesz fractional gradient in the calculus of variations and fractional partial differential equations begun in an earlier work of the same name. In particular, we here establish an

Hardy inequality, obtain further regularity results for solutions of certain fractional PDE, demonstrate the existence of minimizers for integral functionals of the fractional gradient with non-linear dependence in the field, and also establish the existence of solutions to corresponding Euler–Lagrange equations obtained as conditions of minimality. In addition, we pose a number of open problems, the answers to which would fill in some gaps in the theory as well as to establish connections with more classical areas of study, including interpolation and the theory of Dirichlet forms.
Diffusive logistic equations with harvesting and heterogeneity under strong growth rate
Authors: Shabani Rokn-e-vafa Saeed , Tehrani Hossein T. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
We consider the equation

-\Delta u=au-b(x)u^{2}-ch(x)\quad\text{in }\Omega,\qquad u=0\quad\text{on }%
\partial\Omega,

where Ω is a smooth bounded domain in

{\mathbb{R}^{N}}

,

{b(x)}

and

{h(x)}

are nonnegative functions, and there exists

{\Omega_{0}\subset\subset\Omega}

such that

{\{x:b(x)=0\}=\overline{\Omega}_{0}}

.
We investigate the existence of positive solutions of this equation for c large under the strong growth rate assumption

{a\geq\lambda_{1}(\Omega_{0})}

, where

{\lambda_{1}(\Omega_{0})}

is the first eigenvalue of the

{-\Delta}

in

{\Omega_{0}}

with Dirichlet boundary condition.
We show that if

{h\equiv 0}

in

{\Omega\setminus\overline{\Omega}_{0}}

, then our equation has a unique positive solution for all c large, provided that a is in a right neighborhood of

{\lambda_{1}(\Omega_{0})}

.
For this purpose, we prove and utilize some new results on the positive solution set of this equation in the weak growth rate case.
Existence and concentration behavior of solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations with critical growth
Authors: Teng Kaimin , Yang Xiaofeng 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
In this paper, we study a class of quasilinear elliptic equations involving the Sobolev critical exponent

-\varepsilon^{p}\Delta_{p}u-\varepsilon^{p}\Delta_{p}(u^{2})u+V(x)\lvert u%
\rvert^{p-2}u=h(u)+\lvert u\rvert^{2p^{*}-2}u\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^{N},

where

{\Delta_{p}u=\operatorname{div}(\lvert\nabla u\rvert^{p-2}\nabla u)}

is the p-Laplace operator,

{p^{*}=\frac{Np}{N-p}}

(

{N\geq 3}

,

{N>p\geq 2}

) is the usual Sobolev critical exponent, the potential

{V(x)}

is a continuous function, and the nonlinearity

{h(u)}

is a nonnegative function of

{C^{1}}

class. Under some suitable assumptions on V and h, we establish the existence, multiplicity and concentration behavior of solutions by using combing variational methods and the theory of the Ljusternik–Schnirelman category.
Amazonisierung der Industriearbeit?

Published: April 2017

Zusammenfassung
Industrie 4.0 wird in der öffentlichen Diskussion meist im Sinne einer disruptiven Veranderung thematisiert. Unsere Fallstudie bei einem Montagewerk der Automobilindustrie, in dem wir Elemente der Industrie 4.0 verwirklicht sehen, offenbart hingegen starke Kontinuitäten zu vorangegangenen Paradigmen industrieller Organisation wie dem Lean-Production-Prinzip bzw. seiner Fortführung zu so genannten Build-to-order-Konzepten (BTO), die auf eine intelligente Verknüpfung von Kunden, Unternehmen und Zulieferern abstellen. Im untersuchten Werk impliziert das einen deutlichen Bedeutungszuwachs der Intralogistik, verbunden mit einem entsprechenden Beschäftigungsaufbau. Mit diesen Verschiebungen verändert sich auch der Charakter industrieller Arbeit. Neben der Montagetätigkeit und Maschinenführung entstehen neue Anforderungsprofile, die auf niedrigen Qualifikationen und schneller Einarbeitung beruhen. Das Szenario eines Nexus von individualisierter Produktion, Ablaufdeterminismus und einem Beschäftigungszuwachs in eher gering-qualifizierten Tätigkeiten der Intralogistik bezeichnen wir aufgrund struktureller Ähnlichkeiten zur Branche des Online-Handels als „Amazonisierung der Industriearbeit“.

A numerical model to assess the role of crack-tip hydrostatic stress and plastic deformation in environmental-assisted fatigue cracking
Authors: Baragetti Sergio , Villa Francesco 
Published: April 2017

AbstractTo better understand the mechanics of environmentally assisted cracking, and particularly hydrogen embrittlement, a correct description of the hydrostatic stress field is indispensable. The concentration of hydrogen in the proximity of the crack tip is indeed dependent of the hydrostatic stress effect on the microstructural lattice of the material. The overall parameters of the hydrostatic stress, including peak value, its location, gradient, and distribution size are fundamental to assess the effect on hydrogen distribution near the crack tip, specifically considering hydrogen-enhanced decohesion mechanism, or the HEDE mechanism. Hydrostatic stress is hence widely analysed in studies related to hydrogen embrittlement contribution in stress corrosion cracking or corrosion fatigue of metallic alloys. However, recent studies highlighted that the hydrogen-enhanced local plasticity (HELP) mechanism can be more relevant than HEDE in hydrogen-assisted fatigue failure of metallic alloys. In order to investigate the contribution of the HELP mechanism, detailed finite element modelling is reported for notched Ti-6Al-4V specimens, based on experimental fatigue data. The material is modelled with elastic-perfectly plastic behaviour, reproducing actual geometry of the notches and the fatigue crack, from measurements and replicas conducted during testing. Strain data are obtained in initial and final crack configuration, to discuss the HELP contribution on environmentally assisted cracking, and compare it with HEDE contribution linked to hydrostatic stress.

AbstractThis paper presents the electron beam misalignment study with respect to cathode position and cathode magnetic field of 42 GHz, 200 kW gyrotron. The performance of gyrotron is affected with the misalignment of cathode position. The simulation results confirm the tolerance of cathode misalignment with respect to the design parameters such as the transverse-to-axial velocity ratio, the maximum transverse velocity spread, etc.
Public-key cryptosystem based on invariants of diagonalizable groups
Authors: Marko František , Zubkov Alexandr N. , Juráš Martin 
Published: April 2017

AbstractWe develop a public-key cryptosystem based on invariants of diagonalizable groups and investigate properties of such a cryptosystem first over finite fields, then over number fields and finally over finite rings. We consider the security of these cryptosystem and show that it is necessary to restrict the set of parameters of the system to prevent various attacks (including linear algebra attacks and attacks based on the Euclidean algorithm).
Enzymatic grafting of kraft lignin as a wood bio-protection strategy. Part 2: effectiveness against wood destroying basidiomycetes. Effect of copper entrapment
Authors: Fernández-Costas Carmen , Palanti Sabrina , Sanromán María Ángeles , Moldes Diego 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
Enzymatic grafting of kraft lignin (KL) on wood surfaces is presented as a non-leachable wood protection treatment. Scots pine and European beech mini-blocks were treated with KL solution in the presence of laccase isolated from Myceliophthora thermophila and the formation of a stable interaction between wood and lignin was observed. Furthermore, the same strategy was employed to graft KL with the simultaneous entrapment of copper in the polymeric net formed. Enzymatic treatment diminished the leachability of the compounds in accordance with the EN 84 standard. The durability of the leached wood blocks was evaluated by accelerated decay tests. Samples with grafted lignin on the surface lost their antifungal activity in long-term exposure at the concentration tested. This observation is in contradiction to the preliminary tests, where KL seemed to have some biocidal activity. On the other hand, KL grafting in combination with copper entrapment improved the decay resistance and the copper leaching was reduced.
From Eco’s Aperturato Fractal Narrative: Recursion as a Tool of Order in Contemporary Narratives
Authors: Duarte German A. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
In 1962 Umberto Eco published his Opera aperta. Forma e indeterminazione nelle poetiche contemporanee, in which he dealt with the televised space and its influence on the development of plot in contemporary narratives. The analysis of the aesthetic of television led him to highlight the exclusive capacity of television to transmit events in real time: Live TV.Eco affirms in particular that through the editing in Live TV, the role of choice completely changes in comparison to what happens in the editing phase within the cinematographic narrative. In Live TV, choice becomes a proper composition, a form of narrative, a means of unifying in a discursive way a set of isolated images within the framework of a wider set of events taking place at the same time and intersecting one another. This impromptu narrative brings with it the use of some recursive forms, which represent an important narrative tool enabling a weaving of the narrative space. Eco identified those recursive forms in some jazz figures such as the riff, the recursive form of which allows for the creation of an organic composition full of improvisation. A few years later, the importance of figures of this kind was also noted by Deleuze-Guattari (1980), who posited that ritornello has an important function of organizing the exterior space, or chaotic space. Based on these considerations, this paper deals with the phenomenon of repetition, recursivity, and patterns, to bring these concepts into the construction of narrative spaces. The central point of the paper is that the birth of Live TV started a phenomenon of exteriorization of the inner data of the narrative construction. This phenomenon of externalization makes possible the understanding of data through spatial terms, and one starts to use recursive formulas to navigate it.
Integration and visualization of spatial data in LIFE
Authors: Lin Ying-Chi , Groß Anika , Kirsten Toralf 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
It is usually a challenging task to integrate and analyze huge amounts of heterogeneous data in large medical research
projects. Often meaningful new insights can be achieved by visualizing medical data on geographical maps. For instance in
epidemiological studies, data is often explored on a spatial dimension. LIFE is a large epidemiological study, managed by
the LIFE Research Center for Civilization Diseases at Leipzig University. The study investigates the health-related states
of the local population, e.g. by looking at the role of lifestyle factors on major civilization diseases. To allow for an
effective data exploration, the development of sophisticated data analysis and spatial visualization techniques is
necessary. Here, we present the interactive web application LIFE Spatial Data Visualization System (LIFE-SDVS)
that adds a geographical facet to the data integration and analysis workflow of the LIFE research project.

Policies for Happiness in the Global Village
Authors: Dima Bogdan , Dima Ştefana Maria 
Published: April 2017

AbstractThis article employs three different measures of life satisfaction viewed as proxy for social utility, in order to test for the possible non-linear interactions between the quality of public governance, as reflected by the World Bank indicators, and globalization, as captured by the KOF index, for a dataset of 99 countries for a time span between 2001 and 2010. We conclude that efficient and trustworthy public policies may enhance life satisfaction. Moreover, there may occur a synergy effect between ‘good’ governance and globalization (especially for those components describing social globalization), while there is no substitute for the failure of public policies, in terms of human development and growth (with the effects on human development being substantially more important than those corresponding to the increase in national wealth).

Authors: Hayat Mohammad Athar , Mankar Ankush A. 
Published: April 2017

Abstract
Robotic arms play a major role in today’s environment. Many robotic arms are used in industries, factories, and our surrounding environments. Many types of robotic arms are used for their particular purpose. Gearbox selection is very important in increasing the performance of robotic arms. Therefore, it is necessary to select the gearbox to improve the performance of robotic arms for everyday use. Thus, an efficient method is proposed to improve the performance of robotic arms for industries. This efficient method adaptively controls the gearbox to increase the performance of industrial robotic arms. The cuckoo search algorithm is an efficient method proposed to increase the performance of industrial robotic arms. By this method, we can improve the performance of industrial robotic arms and make use of these robotic arms in the modern world. The technique has been implemented in the working platform of MATLAB, and the results have been analyzed.

Abstract
CAST-256 (or CAST6) is a symmetric-key block cipher published in June 1998.
It was submitted as a candidate for Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). In
this paper, we will propose a new chosen text attack, the multiple
differential-zero correlation linear attack, to analyze the CAST-256 block
cipher. Our attack is the best-known attack on CAST-256 according to the
number of rounds without the weak-key assumption. We first construct a
30-round differential-zero correlation linear distinguisher. Based on the

Published: April 2017

Abstract
Highly evanescent waveguides with a subwavelength core thickness present a promising lab-on-chip solution for generating nanovolume trapping sites using overlapping evanescent fields. In this work, we experimentally studied Si3N4 waveguides whose sub-wavelength cross-sections and high aspect ratios support fundamental and higher order modes at a single excitation wavelength. Due to differing modal effective indices, these co-propagating modes interfere and generate beating patterns with significant evanescent field intensity. Using near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM), we map the structure of these beating modes in three dimensions. Our results demonstrate the potential of NSOM to optimize waveguide design for complex field trapping devices. By reducing the in-plane width, the population of competing modes decreases, resulting in a simplified spectrum of beating modes, such that waveguides with a width of 650 nm support three modes with two observed beats. Our results demonstrate the potential of NSOM to optimize waveguide design for complex field trapping devices.

Published: April 2017

Abstract
Introduction: Gait recovery is one of the main objectives in the rehabilitation of post-stroke patients. The study aim was to assess the correlations between gait speed in post-stroke hemiparetic patients and the level of motor control in the paretic lower limb, the time from stroke onset, the subjects’ age as well as the impairment of proprioception and visual field.
Materials and methods: This retrospective study was performed at the Clinical Rehabilitation Ward of the Regional Hospital No. 2 in Rzeszow. The study group consisted of 600 patients after a first stroke who walked independently. The measurements focused on gait speed assessed in a 10-meter walking test, motor control in the lower limb according to Brunnström recovery stages, proprioception in lower limbs, visual field as well as functional independence according to The Barthel Index.
Results: The study revealed a slight negative correlation between gait speed and the subjects’ age (r = − 0.25). No correlation was found between mean gait speed and the time from stroke onset. On the other hand, gait speed strongly correlated both with the level of motor control in the lower limb (p = 0.0008) and the incidence of impaired proprioception. Additionally, a strong statistically significant correlation between the patients’ gait speed and the level of functional independence was found with the use of The Barthel Index.
Conclusions: The level of motor control in the paretic lower limb and proprioception are vital factors affecting gait speed and functional independence. Patients with a higher level of functional independence demonstrated higher gait speed.
