Entropy generation analysis in greenhouse environmental system
Authors: Tian Shujiao , Chang Yixiao , Zhang Riru , Zhang Zhijuan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
To minimize energy loss in a greenhouse environmental system, analyzing the entropy generation within the system is crucial. Based on the established mathematical model of the greenhouse environment, entropy generation in the greenhouse environment system is analyzed, and the irreversible energy loss in the greenhouse environment system is determined by viscous flow, heat and mass transfer. In the closed greenhouse environment at night, internal temperature change is small, and total entropy generation rate is small. Under different ventilation conditions during the day, the entropy generation is mainly concentrated near the ventilation window, with larger ventilation areas leading to higher entropy generation rates.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
With the depletion of fossil energy and the increasing attention of people to environmental pollution, it was urgent to find clean and non-polluting alternative energy. Solar photovoltaic power generation had the advantages of low cost, long life, no pollution and stability. This project designed a photovoltaic power station on the roof of a 200 kW industrial plant. 360 single-crystal 550W photovoltaic modules were selected, the installation inclination was 20°. Through PVsyst simulation, the total power generation in 25 years was 4.8884 million kWh and the average annual power generation was about 195,500 kWh.

Abstract
While mountain water faces threats posed by climate change, particularly in snow-dominated and glacierized systems, the role of groundwater (GW) in sustaining streamflow in these systems remains elusive. Changing mountain headwaters, marked by reduced snowpacks, retreating glaciers, shifting precipitation patterns, and rising temperatures, pose a crucial question: what is the resilience of streamflow in these mountains, and what role does GW play in this resilience? This is particularly uncertain in tropical high mountains where the seasonality of precipitation and glacier melt govern streamflow generation. A glacio-hydrological model was created using the Cold Regions Hydrological Modelling platform to investigate cryosphere-surface water–GW interactions in the Quilcayhuanca Basin, in Peru’s Cordillera Blanca. The model was forced by in-situ meteorological observations and parameterized using numerous data sources and process-based studies in the basin. Model results show that during the dry season, 37% of streamflow is generated from GW discharge, increasing to 56% during the lowest flows. Evapotranspiration is the largest mass flux from the basin at the peak of the dry season. Precipitation, temperature, and glacier change scenarios were used to assess the sensitivity of basin hydrology to climate change and glacier retreat. In a warmer, wetter, and nearly deglaciated future, Quilcayhuanca basin streamflow is expected to decrease by 4%–19% annually, with a larger volumetric change in overland and vadose zone flow than in GW flow. The range in values is more closely linked to uncertainty in precipitation change than temperature change. Despite a strong reduction in snow and ice contribution to streamflow with warming and deglaciation, the concomitant increase in precipitation can limit the changes in streamflow and GW flow, showcasing the resilience of the system to shifts in climate and glacier cover.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
We present an elegant and effective approach for the design of adiabatic waveguide couplers tailored for the heterogeneous integration of photonic building blocks. This method empowers users to incorporate the shortest taper(s) in their designs, while upholding optimal coupling efficiency. The technique assesses mode overlap between a minimum of two waveguides within the cross-section of any heterogeneous material stack, determining the necessary waveguide cross-sectional dimension to achieve optimal coupling efficiency. Two illustrative design applications are showcased and compared to a linear, concave, and convex taper for reference: a SiN-to-polymer structure exhibiting a 40% coupling improvement and a Si-to-GeSi structure having a 2.2 up to 5 times shorter length.
Elucidating the origin of laser-induced nonlinearities in propagation inside transparent media: a comparative numerical study of silicon and fused silica
Authors: Das Amlan , Yu Xiaoming 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The creation of localized bulk modification using femtosecond pulses inside semiconductors like silicon (Si) is quite challenging, whereas it is not difficult to achieve it for dielectric materials like fused silica (FS). This report addresses the fundamental origin of this issue. By taking a simple numerical approach, it has been found that in FS we can deliver stronger fluence due to self-focusing at higher power levels compared to Si. The origin for the above lies in the spatio-temporal pulse-splitting behavior, which is dominant in the case of FS at the focus, whereas, for Si, it is only effective after focus. We have also considered the influence of plasma and Kerr terms to elucidate the reason behind these nonlinearities. For the FS case, omission of Kerr term dominates, whereas, for Si, the influence of each term does not significantly create self-focusing like FS under a similar focusing condition. This study could provide an important guideline for researchers to understand the complexity of laser-matter interaction in transparent materials specifically being studied by many laser-processing industries.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Materials are the building blocks of various functional applications. With Moore’s Law approaching Si’s physical limits, traditional semiconductor-based monolithic three-dimensional (M3D) integrated circuits always suffer from the issues, including electrical performance (carrier scattering), chip-overheating (low heat conductivity), electromagnetic interference. Recently, two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDs) inherit the atomically-thin thickness of 2D materials and exhibit outstanding natures, such as smooth flatness (excellent compatibility), electronic property (thickness below 1 nm), absence of dangling bonds (decreasing carrier scattering), making them highly promising for next-generation functional devices in comparison with traditional bulk materials. Up to now, 2D TMD-based transistors have already exhibited the feasibility of replacing conventional one in terms of performances. Furthermore, the technology of large-area 2D TMDs films has been greatly successful, which lays the foundation for the fabrication of scalable 2D TMD-based devices. Besides, the scalable devices based on 2D TMDs also show the prospects of realizing ultra-high-density M3D integrated circuits owing to the presence of outstanding compatibility. Herein, we focus some thriving research areas and provide a systematic review of recent advances in the field of scalable electronic and optoelectronic devices based on 2D TMDs, including large-area synthesis, property modulation, large-scale device applications, and multifunctional device integration. The research in 2D TMDs has clearly exhibited the tremendous promise for scalable diversified applications. In addition, scalable 2D TMD-based devices in terms of mass production, controllability, reproducibility, and low-cost have also been highlighted, showing the importance and benefits in modern industry. Finally, we summarize the remaining challenges and discuss the future directions of scalable 2D TMDs devices.
Animal Politics
Authors: Sugiyama Nawa 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
It is time we take seriously the myriad of ways animal matter executed the “dirty work” of the state. Animal politics involved situated actions that established social differences among the public. Biological properties and physical human–animal encounters were essential to how each animal mediated the socially differentiated landscape and how personhood was constructed. For example, the domestication process fundamentally alters human–animal dynamics, and corporeal animal forms physically materialize such novel relationships. Each animal’s social positionality within a native classification system is inquired: the felid (jaguar and puma), the canid (wolf, dog, and coyote), the eagle, and the rattlesnake. The distinct distribution of its representation versus its corporeal animal form suggests discrete roles and degrees of engagement of each matter in animal politics. In addition, relevant biological and ecological factors pertinent to decoding animal matter helps substantiate a holistic interpretation of animal politics applied in subsequent chapters.
Isotope Evidence of Captivity
Authors: Sugiyama Nawa 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter presents stable isotope data of the Moon Pyramid faunal assemblage. Isotope-based dietary models provide a parallel line of evidence when pathological indicators of captivity are inconclusive and capture diachronic changes in the animal’s diet. Inter-species, as well as intra-species (primary versus secondary burial) patterns, are assessed. Generally, primary burials had statistically significant isotope values (δ13Ccarbonate, δ13Ccollagen, δ15Ncollagen), signaling higher levels of C4-based (maize) intake and higher trophic levels characteristic of anthropogenic diets. Secondary remains were typically composed of a more heterogeneous population with a relatively high proportion of wild-hunted individuals. The exception was the golden eagles that, as a group, demonstrated primary and secondary burials to be isotopically indistinguishable with clearly elevated values, which concurs with the zooarchaeological data of captivity among both burial types.
Penny Lane Is Her Real Name!
Authors: MacDonald Scott 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Penny Lane began as an experimental filmmaker, first making, as a student, The Abortion Diaries (2005), in which a group of women talk about their abortions; then memorable personal films—She Used to See Him Most Weekends (2007) about her absentee father; and The Voyagers (2010), a love letter to Brian Frye whom she would marry. With Frye, she collaborated on a documentary feature, Our Nixon (2013), that used archival, home-movies, shot by Richard Nixon’s staff about their trip to China with the president. Solo once again, Lane continued with Nuts! (2016), a bio-pic about a con artist who cons us! Then there was, The Pain of Others (2018), an exploration of YouTube posters’ claims that they suffer from a mysterious illness called “Morgellons”; then Hail Satan? (2019), an investigation of the Satanic Temple’s reputation as a hate group; and the HBO film Listening to Kenny G, focusing on issues about artistic purity, race, pop culture, and the “fascinating weirdo” whose beloved music is hated by many. Her newest, Confessions of a Good Samaritan (2024), documents Lane’s donation of a kidney.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
#monalisa (2020), the eleven-hour documentation of visitors to the Louvre gallery where the Mona Lisa is displayed, instigated by Jennifer Anderson and Vernon Lott, and shot in slow-motion by Nandan Rao with a GoPro camera, offers a motion study of a particular crowd with a shared interest and demonstrates how modern technology has transformed the museum experience. The result is a meditation on modernity, accompanied by an eleven-hour score by Peter Broderick and David Allred. Anderson/Lott’s earlier film, The Act of Becoming (2015), explores the international rediscovery of John Williams’s novel Stoner, fifty years after its publication.

Considerations for developing a health-system 503B outsourcing strategy
Authors: Pamphile Gilnou , Yaniv Angela , Burton Samantha , Boreen Christopher , Eggers Garrett 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Purpose
To provide guidance for health systems on how to develop a strategy for utilizing 503B outsourcing facilities for sterile product preparation.

Summary
Health-system pharmacies face an increasingly complex set of challenges related to providing sterile products to patients. New United States Pharmacopeia &lt;797&gt; regulations, increasing drug shortages, and an ongoing pharmacy technician workforce shortage have made sterile compounding more difficult than ever for health-system pharmacies. Outsourcing of production to 503B outsourcing facilities is one strategy pharmacy leaders can use to help navigate these challenges. However, there are many factors to consider when deciding whether to outsource a product and which 503B vendors are safe and reliable. The Cleveland Clinic Health System (CCHS) has developed a robust internal structure to appropriately vet 503B outsourcing facilities for safety and reliability, as well as standardized criteria used to determine which products will be outsourced. This article describes the tools CCHS has used to evaluate 503B outsourcing vendors and to evaluate individual products to determine the pros and cons of outsourcing vs insourcing. Additionally, general considerations regarding outsourcing are described.

Conclusion
Outsourcing to 503B facilities can be an effective strategy for navigating sterile compounding challenges but is not without some risk. Pharmacy leaders must develop a standardized approach to thoroughly evaluate 503B vendors and products to ensure their outsourcing strategy is both safe and cost-effective.
The Slithering Dead: Does locomotor performance affect post-capture death feigning in dice snakes (Natrix tessellata, Laurenti 1768)?

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Functional constraints between different types of antipredator behavior should be common, especially if they are on the opposite sides of the behavioral spectrum such as flight and post-capture immobility. We examined a potential compromise between post-capture immobility displays and sprint speed in dice snakes (Natrix tessellata), using a field-based approach. We sampled snakes (N = 238) from two populations: from a dense island population free of mammal predators, and from a less dense mainland population, preyed upon by both bird and mammal predators. We explored the effects of sexual maturity, temperature, body size, presence of palpable food in the gut, and injuries on the occurrence and duration of post-capture immobility as well as sprint speed. Our results confirm the existence of functional constraints between locomotor performance and post-capture immobility in dice snakes. Faster dice snakes start escaping promptly after release, while slower individuals utilize more passive antipredator behaviors such as death feigning. Local adaptations seem to have great influence on behavioral compromise, since the mammal-free island population exhibited a higher incidence of post-capture immobility and a significantly lower sprint speed, compared to the less dense mainland population. Additionally, immature individuals tended to avoid death feigning and their post-capture immobility lasted shorter compared to adult individuals. It remains to be seen how individuals adjust their behavior to accomodate locomotor constraints, and in which specific phases of the predator-prey interaction these adjustments occur.
Single catheter ablation of atrioventricular node in a patient with dextrocardia and permanent atrial fibrillation via peripheral vascular access using remote magnetic navigation: a case report
Authors: Raatikainen Pekka , Marjamaa Annukka , Tolppanen Heli , Karvonen Jarkko , Aro Aapo 
Published: September 2024

Abstract

Background
Cardiac interventions may be challenging in patients with congenital cardiac abnormalities. This case reports cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P) implantation and single catheter ablation of atrioventricular node (AVN) with remote magnetic navigation (RMN) via peripheral vascular access in a patient with Kartagener’s syndrome and permanent atrial fibrillation (AF).

Case summary
A 74-year-old male with situs inversus presented for treatment of permanent AF and severe heart failure. In echocardiography, left ventricular ejection fraction was 30%, and there was severe dyskinesia due to a left bundle branch block. After successful CRT-P implantation, we performed AVN ablation because biventricular (BiV) pacing was &lt;75% despite maximal rate control medication. The ablation catheter was inserted from the right basilic vein, and no other catheters were used. Despite peripheral vascular access, manipulation of the ablation catheter with RMN was easy, and the ablation was successful. After the ablation, BiV pacing instantly increased to 100%, and left ventricular function and symptomatic status improved gradually.

Conclusions
Cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker implantation and RMN-guided single catheter ablation of the AVN in a patient with dextrocardia via peripheral vascular access was effective and safe. The use of RMN and peripheral vascular access may offer important advantages also in other patient groups.
Productivity Growth and Workers’ Job Transitions: Evidence from Census Microdata
Authors: Albagli Elías , Canales Mario , Syverson Chad , Tapia Matías , Wlasiuk Juan 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
We use administrative data for Chile to provide novel insights on the relationship between job transitions and productivity differentials and quantify how different groups contribute to aggregate reallocation. While on average workers move to more productive firms, almost half of transitions are ‘down the productivity ladder’. Reallocation gains are mostly explained by a narrow subset of transitions: young, high-skilled workers generate the lion’s share of aggregate productivity gains. Workers with high turnover contribute proportionally the least. Therefore, while job reallocation yields a net benefit, it hides massive and heterogeneous gross flows, with many appearing to add little to aggregate efficiency.
Bite force transmission and mandible shape in grasshoppers, crickets, and allies is not driven by dietary niches

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Although species evolve in response to many intrinsic and extrinsic factors, frequently one factor has a dominating influence on a given organ system. In this context, mouthpart shape and function are thought to correlate strongly with dietary niche and this was advocated for decades, e.g., for insects. Orthoptera (grasshoppers, crickets, and allies) are a prominent case in this respect because mandible shape has been even used to predict feeding preferences. Here, we analyzed mandible shape, force transmission efficiency, and their potential correlation with dietary categories in a phylogenetic framework for 153 extant Orthoptera. The mechanical advantage profile was used as a descriptor of gnathal edge shape and bite force transmission efficiency in order to understand how mandible shape is linked to biting efficiency and diet, and how these traits are influenced by phylogeny and allometry. Results show that mandible shape, in fact, is a poor predictor of feeding ecology and phylogenetic history has a strong influence on gnathal edge shape. Being ancestrally phytophagous, Orthoptera evolved in an environment with food sources being always abundant so that selective pressures leading to more specialized mouthpart shapes and force transmission efficiencies were low.

Abstract

Background
People with HIV (PWH) experience faster physical decline than those without HIV (PWoH), despite antiretroviral therapy. We compared skeletal muscle density and area and their relationship with physical function among PWH and PWoH.

Methods
Quantitative computed tomography scans were performed at the L4–L5 spinal region and the thigh to evaluate muscle groups in Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study participants at baseline. Using exploratory factor analysis, we summarized aggregated muscle measures based on factor loadings. Longitudinal associations between muscle area and density with gait speed and grip strength were examined using multivariable linear regression models with generalized estimating equations, adjusting for demographics, HIV serostatus, and other health metrics.

Results
We included 798 men (61% of PWH). The median age was 54 years (interquartile range: 49–59), 61% were White, 32% Black, and 10% Hispanic. Among them, 22% had a body mass index over 30 kg/m2, and 14% had diabetes. Two factors emerged from the factor analysis explaining 55.9% of variance. Factor 1 (explained 32.5% of variance) encompassed all density measures. Factor 2 (explained 23.4% of variance) encompassed all area measures. Associations between muscle density and gait speed were more pronounced with aggregated measures than with individual ones. Specifically, each unit increase in overall muscle density correlated with a 0.028 m/s increase in gait speed (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.017, 0.038, p &lt; .01). Grip strength was associated with aggregated measures of both muscle density and area, with overall muscle density associated with a 1.88 kg increase in grip strength (95% CI: 1.29, 2.46, p &lt; .01), and overall muscle area with a 1.60 kg increase (95% CI: 1.02, 2.19, p &lt; .01).

Conclusions
Aggregated muscle density and area measurements were significantly associated with physical function. These correlations underscore the importance of interventions to enhance skeletal muscle to improve healthy aging for PWH and PWoH.
