Cost Estimation in Engineer-to-Order
Manufacturing
Authors: Hooshmand Yousef , Köhler Peter , Korff-Krumm Andrea 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
In Engineer-to-Order (ETO) manufacturing the
price of products must be defined during early stages of
product design and during the bidding process, thus an
overestimation of product development (PD) costs may
lead to the loss of orders and an underestimation causes
a profit loss. What many ETO systems have in common is
that the products have to be developed based on different
customer requirements so that each order usually results
in a new variant. Furthermore, many customer requirement
change-requests may arise in different phases of the
PD, which is to be considered properly. Thus it is utmost
important for ETO systems to have an accurate cost estimation
in first stages of the product design and to be able
to determine the cost of customer requirement changes in
different phases of PD. This paper aims to present a cost estimation
methodology as well as a cost estimation model,
which estimate the cost of products by relative comparison
of the attributes of new product variants with the attributes
of standard product variants. In addition, as a necessity
in ETO manufacturing, the cost calculation of customer
requirement changes in different phases of PD is integrated
in the presented method.

Published: March 2016

Abstract
This paper analyzes the laminar, incompressible
mixed convective transport inside vertical channel in an
electrically conducting fluid saturated porous medium. In
addition, this model incorporates the combined effects of
Soret, Hall current and Joule heating. The nonlinear governing
equations and their related boundary conditions
are initially cast into a dimensionless form using suitable
similarity transformations and hence solved using Adomian
Decomposition Method (ADM). In order to explore
the influence of various parameters on fluid flow properties,
quantitative analysis is exhibited graphically and
shown in tabular form.
Investigation of combined heat and mass transfer between
vertical parallel plates in a two-layer flow of couple stress
nanofluid
Authors: Khan Najeeb Alam , Sultan Faqiha , Riaz Fatima , Jamil Muhammad 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
This study is an investigation of fully-developed
laminar flow in a two-layer vertical channel; one part filled
with couple stress nanofluid and the other part with clear
couple stress fluid. The flow is examined for combined
heat and mass transfer using uniform wall temperature
and concentration boundary conditions. Optimal homotopy
analysis method (OHAM) is used to solve the nonlinear
coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) governing
the flow in each region. This method is based on
the homotopy analysis method (HAM)which is an effective
method to analytically approximate the solution of highly
nonlinear problems. The influence of pertinent parameters
is observed on velocity, temperature, and concentration
distributions, specifically, the effect of Brownian parameter
on couple stress fluid is mentioned.
Specifying the Auslander–Reiten translation for complexes of modules
Authors: Salarian Shokrollah , Vahed Razieh 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
We describe explicitly the Auslander–Reiten translation in the category of bounded complexes of finitely generated maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules, 𝐂b(CM R), over a commutative local Cohen–Macaulay ring R with a canonical module ω. Then the Auslander–Reiten formula is generalized for complexes in 𝐂b(CM R) and we prove the existence theorem of Auslander–Reiten sequences.
As an application of our results, we investigate the existence of Auslander–Reiten triangles in the category of perfect complexes as a full triangulated subcategory of 𝐃b(mod R).
Some remarks on quasi-Frobenius rings
Authors: Zhu Zhanmin 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
We give some new characterizations
of quasi-Frobenius rings by means of YJ-injective rings and JGP-injective rings, respectively. For example, we show that a two-sided YJ-injective right noetherian ring is quasi-Frobenius, which gives an affirmative answer to an open question asked by Roger Yue Chi Ming; a right CF, semiregular, right JGP-injective ring is quasi-Frobenius, which improves the result on p-injective rings obtained by Jianlong Chen. Moreover, a series of conditions is given under which a left noetherian left mininjective right JGP-injective ring is quasi-Frobenius.

Abstract
The paper is concerned with some aspects of the theory of
elementary volume from the measure-theoretical standpoint. It is shown
that there exists a nontrivial solution of Cauchy's functional equation, nonmeasurable
with respect to every translation invariant measure on the real line, extending the one-dimensional
Lebesgue measure.
Improving Rheological and Baking Properties of Gluten-Free Breads Using Defatted Hazelnut Flour with Various Gums
Authors: Tunç Merve T. , Kahyaoglu Talip 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
Defatted hazelnut flour (DHF) in different levels (5 %, 10 % and 15 %) of locust bean, guar and xanthan gum were added in rice-based gluten-free formulations to improve rheological properties of dough and baking properties of bread. The rheological characteristics of dough samples were determined by steady flow curves and dynamic tests. The baking properties of breads were evaluated by specific volume, Textural Profile Analysis (TPA) parameters and color values. The rheological measurements showed that all gluten-free dough had pseudoplastic behavior. Specific volume values of breads ranged from 2.20 to 2.83 cm3/g. Gum addition enhanced the specific volume of gluten-free breads. Hardness values of gluten-free breads ranged from 1,069.80 to 3,135.88 g and DHF addition of gluten-free formulations caused significant decrease of the hardness values of breads (p < 0.05). DHF addition in gluten-free formulations made bread crumb darker than bread without DHF and gum. DHF addition also increased a and b values of gluten-free bread’s crumb.

Fracture and Mechanical Characteristics Degradation of Glass Fiber Reinforced Petroleum epoxy Pipes
Authors: Abdellah Mohammed Y. , Hassan Mohamed K. , Alsoufi Mohammad S. 
Published: March 2016

AbstractPipes made from glass fiber reinforced polymer have a competitive role in the petroleum industry. These types of pipes mainly be set up underground to carry waste water in petroleum field. The environment of the pipes underground besides the effect of water condensed with chlorine gas creates chemical corrosion (degradation) for composite polymeric pipes. The chemical corrosion in such polymeric material is in the form of degradation in fracture and mechanical characteristics. Therefore, the degree of corrosion is determined through its effect on the mechanical and fracture properties of glass fiber reinforced pipes. Therefore, tension and bending tests are performed to obtain the mechanical properties of (GRP) before and after corrosion and a compact tension test is carried out to obtain the fracture toughness of such material. As well as the tests are performed before and after immersion in corrosive waste petroleum water for about 1,440 h. The degradation that is induced in the mechanical and fracture properties are observed. The measured fracture toughness in the compact tension test is influenced by the effect of the corrosion water. Alternatively, a bending test is more acceptable for such brittle material.

Published: March 2016

Abstract
Signals from Global Navigational Satellite Systems
(GNSS) when integrated with surface meteorological
parameters can be used to sense atmospheric water
vapour. Using gLAB software and employing precise point
positioning techniques, zenith troposphere delays (ZTD)
for a GPS base station at KNUST, Kumasi have been computed
and used to retrieve Precipitable Water (PW). The
PW values obtained were compared with products from
ERA-Interim and NCEP reanalysis data. The correlation
coefficients, r, determined from these comparisons were
0.839 and 0.729 for ERA-interim and NCEP respectively.
This study has demonstrated that water vapour can be
retrieved with high precision from GNSS signal. Furthermore,
a location map have been produced to serve as a
guide in adopting and installing GNSS base stations in
Ghana to achieve a country wide coverage of GNSS based
water vapour monitoring.
An upwind-based scheme for solving the oblique
derivative boundary-value problem related to
physical geodesy
Authors: Macák Marek , Čunderlík Róbert , Mikula Karol , Minarechová Zuzana 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
The paper presents a novel original upwindbased
approach for solving the oblique derivative boundary
value problem by the finite volume method. In this approach,
the oblique derivative boundary condition is interpreted
as a stationary advection equation for the unknown
disturbing potential. Its approximation is then performed
by using the first order upwind scheme taking into account
information from inflow parts of the finite volume boundary
only. When the numerical scheme is derived, numerical
simulations in 2D and 3D domains are performed and
the experimental order of convergence of the proposed algorithm
is studied. Moreover a comparison with a solution
by the central scheme previously used for this kind
of problem is performed. Finally we present numerical experiments
dealing with the global and local gravity field
modelling.
More confounders at global and decadal scales in
detecting recent sea level accelerations
Authors: Bâki Iz H. 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
The residuals of 27 globally distributed long tide
gauge recordswere scrutinized after removing the globally
compounding effect of the periodic lunar node tides and
almost periodic solar radiation’s sub and superharmonics
from the tide gauge data. The spectral analysis of the
residuals revealed additional unmodeled periodicities at
decadal scales, 19 of which are within the close range of
12–14 years, at 27 tide gauge stations. The amplitudes of
the periodicitieswere subsequently estimated for the spectrally
detected periods and they were found to be statistically
significant (p «0.05) for 18 out of 27 globally distributed
tide gauge stations. It was shown that the estimated
amplitudes at different localities may have biased
the outcome of all the previous studies based on tide gauge
or satellite altimetry data that did not account for these periodicities,
within the range −0.5 – 0.5 mm/yr., acting as
another confounder in detecting 21st century sea level rise.

Integrated optical biosensor for rapid detection of bacteria

Published: March 2016

AbstractIn medical diagnostics, rapid detection of pathogenic bacteria from body fluids is one of the basic issues. Most state-of-the-art methods require optical labeling, increasing the complexity, duration and cost of the analysis. Therefore, there is a strong need for developing selective sensory devices based on label-free techniques, in order to increase the speed, and reduce the cost of detection. In a recent paper, we have shown that an integrated optical Mach-Zehnder interferometer, a highly sensitive all-optical device made of a cheap photopolymer, can be used as a powerful lab-on-a-chip tool for specific, labelfree detection of proteins. By proper modifications of this technique, our interferometric biosensor was combined with a microfluidic system allowing the rapid and specific detection of bacteria from solutions, having the surface of the sensor functionalized by bacterium-specific antibodies. The experiments proved that the biosensor was able to detect Escherichia coli bacteria at concentrations of 106 cfu/ml within a few minutes, that makes our device an appropriate tool for fast, label-free detection of bacteria from body fluids such as urine or sputum. On the other hand, possible applications of the device may not be restricted to medical microbiology, since bacterial identification is an important task in microbial forensics, criminal investigations, bio-terrorism threats and in environmental studies, as well.

An efficient algorithm for solving fractional differential equations with boundary conditions
Authors: Alkan Sertan , Yildirim Kenan , Secer Aydin 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
In this paper, a sinc-collocation method is described to determine the approximate solution of fractional order boundary value problem (FBVP). The results obtained are presented as two new theorems. The fractional derivatives are defined in the Caputo sense, which is often used in fractional calculus. In order to demonstrate the efficiency and capacity of the present method, it is applied to some FBVP with variable coefficients. Obtained results are compared to exact solutions as well as Cubic Spline solutions. The comparisons can be used to conclude that sinc-collocation method is powerful and promising method for determining the approximate solutions of FBVPs in different types of scenarios.

Time-consistency of risk measures with GARCH volatilities and their estimation
Authors: Klüppelberg Claudia , Zhang Jianing 
Published: March 2016

Abstract
In this paper we study time-consistent risk measures for returns that are given by a GARCH(1,1) model. We present a construction of risk measures based on their static counterparts that overcomes the lack of time-consistency. We then study in detail our construction for the risk measures Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Average Value-at-Risk (AVaR). While in the VaR case we can derive an analytical formula for its time-consistent counterpart, in the AVaR case we derive lower and upper bounds to its time-consistent version. Furthermore, we incorporate techniques from extreme value theory (EVT) to allow for a more tail-geared statistical analysis of the corresponding risk measures. We conclude with an application of our results to a data set of stock prices.
Crystal structures of 3-(2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-(m- and p-nitrophenyl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones: different roles of the oxygen atoms

Published: March 2016

Abstract
The crystal structures of two isomeric 3-(2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethyl)-2-(aryl)-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one compounds (1: aryl=4-O2NC6H4; 2: aryl=3-O2NC6H4) are reported. In both these nonplanar, compounds, the carbonyl oxygen is involved in intramolecular C–H···O hydrogen bonds. However, there are significant differences in the sets of intermolecular interactions, in particular the roles of the oxygen atoms, exhibited by the two compounds. Thus in 1, a dioxolyl oxygen and the two nitro group oxygen atoms are each involved in different chain forming C–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds, while the carbonyl oxygen atom is not involved in any intermolecular interaction. In 2, the dioxolyl oxygen atom is involved in the formation of centrosymmetric dimers, the carbonyl oxygen in three different C–H···O hydrogen bonds and the nitro group oxygens in two N–O···π(aryl) interactions. Compound 2 exhibits also C–H···π(phenyl), π(phenyl)···π(phenyl) and π(benzodioxolyl)···π(benzodioxolyl) interactions, while in 1 only the latter interaction is present. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P21/a with Z=4, while compound 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group, P1̅, with Z=2.
Creation and Salvation in Hebrews
Authors: Filtvedt Ole Jakob 
Published: March 2016

Abstract:
Der Aufsatz sucht die Ansicht infrage zu stellen, dass der Hebräerbrief eine negative Sicht auf die Schöpfung habe. Zunächst wird das Verhältnis zwischen Jesu Rolle als Mitschöpfer aller Dinge und seiner Stellung als eschatologischer Erbe aller Dinge untersucht. Sodann wird die Tatsache in den Blick genommen, dass sich der Hebräerbrief auf die Schöpfungserzählung der Genesis bezieht, um eines seiner eschatologischen Hauptthemen zu entwickeln, nämlich die Vorstellung, dass Gottes Volk immer noch eine Sabbatruhe erwartet. In einem weiteren Schritt wendet sich der Aufsatz der kultischen Interpretation des Christusgeschehens zu und fragt, ob der im Hebräerbrief für das Christusgeschehen angenommene räumliche Kontext voraussetzt, dass Christus die Schöpfung verlässt, um einen unerschaffenen oder immateriellen Bereich zu betreten. Schließlich fragt der Beitrag nach dem zukünftigen Schicksal der Schöpfung.
Coupling spatial segregation with synthetic circuits to control bacterial survival

Published: March 2016

AbstractEngineered bacteria have great potential for medical and environmental applications. Fulfilling this potential requires controllability over engineered behaviors and scalability of the engineered systems. Here, we present a platform technology, microbial swarmbot, which employs spatial arrangement to control the growth dynamics of engineered bacteria. As a proof of principle, we demonstrated a safeguard strategy to prevent unintended bacterial proliferation. In particular, we adopted several synthetic gene circuits to program collective survival in Escherichia coli: the engineered bacteria could only survive when present at sufficiently high population densities. When encapsulated by permeable membranes, these bacteria can sense the local environment and respond accordingly. The cells inside the microbial swarmbot capsules will survive due to their high densities. Those escaping from a capsule, however, will be killed due to a decrease in their densities. We demonstrate that this design concept is modular and readily generalizable. Our work lays the foundation for engineering integrated and programmable control of hybrid biological–material systems for diverse applications.
Examination of the Comorbidity of Mental Illness and Somatic Conditions in Hospitalized Children in the United States Using the Kids’ Inpatient Database, 2009
Authors: Sztein Dina M. , Lane Wendy G. 
Published: March 2016

OBJECTIVE:
To examine the associations between mental and physical illness in hospitalized children.

METHODS:
The data for this analysis came from the 2009 Kids’ Inpatient Database (KID). Any child with an International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision code indicative of depressive, anxiety, or bipolar disorders or a diagnosis of sickle cell disease, diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2, asthma, or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were included. Using SAS software, we performed χ2 tests and multivariable logistic regression to determine degrees of association.

RESULTS:
Children discharged with sickle cell disease, asthma, diabetes mellitus type 1, diabetes mellitus type 2, and ADHD were 0.94, 2.76, 3.50, 6.37, and 38.39 times more likely to have a comorbid anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder diagnosis than other hospitalized children, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS:
Children with several chronic physical illnesses (asthma, diabetes mellitus type 1, diabetes mellitus type 2) and mental illnesses (ADHD) have higher odds of being discharged from the hospital with a comorbid mood or anxiety disorder compared with other children discharged from the hospital. It is therefore important to screen children hospitalized with chronic medical conditions for comorbid mental illness to ensure optimal clinical care, to improve overall health and long-term outcomes for these children.
