AbstractMit dem Ziel die Effizienz der Belebungsbecken von kommunalen Kläranlagen zu steigern, wird die Implementierung eines biologischen Modells (ASM1) in die CFD‐Software ANSYS CFX® zur Modellierung eines Belebungsbeckens vorgestellt und mit experimentellen Messdaten überprüft. Unter Beachtung der biologischen Prozesse, der Hydrodynamik und des Gas/flüssig‐Stoffübergangs wurden Simulationen durchgeführt und mit experimentellen Konzentrationsprofilen für Ammonium und Nitrat verglichen. Die getroffenen Annahmen werden detailliert erläutert. Das simulierte Ammoniumkonzentrationsprofil stimmt gut mit den gemessenen Werten überein. Für das Nitratprofil kommt es zu Abweichungen. Insgesamt übertrifft jedoch die CFD‐Simulation in der Vorhersagegenauigkeit herkömmliche 0D‐Simulationssoftware.
Co‐templating Ionothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Layered Aluminophosphate from a Protic Deep Eutectic Solvent
Authors: Li Yuan , Gong Xiangdong , Liu Lei , Dong Jinxiang 
Published: March 2016

AbstractProtic deep eutectic mixtures are usually composed of organic amine hydrochloride salts and hydrogen bond donors in a specific molar ratio. Ionothermal synthesis of aluminophosphate as an example, herein, was reported for the first time from an urea‐based protic eutectic mixture, consisting of diethylammonium chloride (DEACl) and 1,3‐dimethyl urea (DMU). As a result, a new two dimensional aluminophosphate with 4.8‐network, [CH3NH3]2[(C2H5)2NH2]Al3(PO4)4, has been successfully synthesized by co‐templating the DEA and methylamine in situ generated from the decomposition of DMU in the absence of HF. Compared to alkyl quaternary ammonium salts with more alkyl‐group connected with N atom, this kind of organic amine salts are more likely as the structure‐directing agents to synthesize aluminophosphates in urea‐based deep eutectic mixtures. It was also found that HF is crucial to the phase selectivity, a known compound with chain‐like structure was obtained with the single methylamine as a structure‐directing agent in the presence of HF. These materials were characterized by powder XRD, SEM, TG‐DSC, 13C CP‐MAS NMR and CHN analyses.
About the numerical robustness of biomedical benchmark cases: Interlaboratory FDA's idealized medical device
Authors: Zmijanovic Vladeta , Mendez Simon , Moureau Vincent , Nicoud Franck 
Published: March 2016

SummaryThe need for reliable approaches in numerical simulations stands out as a critical issue for the development and optimization of cardiovascular biomedical devices. This led the US Food and Drug Administration to undertake a programme of validation of computational fluid dynamics methods for transitional and turbulent flows. In the current investigation, large‐eddy simulation is used to simulate the flow in the first benchmark medical device, and results are confronted to the existing laboratory experiments. This idealized medical device has the particularity to feature transition to turbulence after a sudden expansion. The effects of numerical parameters and low‐level inlet perturbations are investigated. Results indicate a considerable impact of numerical aspects on the prediction of the location of the transition to turbulence. The study also demonstrates that injecting small perturbations at the inflow greatly improves the streamwise velocity estimation in the transition region and substantially contributes to the robustness of the flow statistical data.

A finite element model to investigate the effect of ulnar variance on distal radioulnar joint mechanics
Authors: Greybe Desney , Boland Michael R. , Wu Tim , Mithraratne Kumar 
Published: March 2016

SummaryUlnocarpal impaction syndrome involves excessive loading of the ulnocarpal joint. Ulnar shortening osteotomies are an effective way to reduce ulnocarpal loading but alter contact mechanics at the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). This study used a computational model to investigate the relationship between ulnar length and DRUJ mechanics. Detailed, finite element models of the radius and ulna bones were constructed from magnetic resonance imaging data. The length of the ulna bone model was increased and decreased up to 5 mm in 1 mm increments. A computational model was used to predict joint contact at the DRUJ for each ulnar length. Lengthening the ulna caused a slight decrease in DRUJ contact pressure, with a more substantial decrease in contact area. Shortening the ulna caused a substantial increase in contact area, with a smaller increase in DRUJ contact pressure. The location of contact on the radial sigmoid notch changed with 2 mm lengthening and 3 mm shortening. The results of this study demonstrate the sensitivity of DRUJ contact to ulnar length changes, which may explain the DRUJ cartilage degeneration that often follows ulnar osteotomies. The joint contact model implemented in this study allowed the relationship between ulnar length and DRUJ contact to be examined systematically, in a way that is difficult to achieve through cadaveric experimentation. The results confirmed published experimental data showing an increased DRUJ contact pressure with ulnar shortening. It is important that clinicians consider the influence of ulnar osteotomies, not only on ulnocarpal loading but also on DRUJ mechanics. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Color harmonies in packaging

Published: March 2016

AbstractThe goal of this research was to determine whether or not there was a difference between consumer preferences for color harmonies for products where external labels and visible product existed simultaneously. Using established color theory, transparent packages containing visible products with colored labels were evaluated. Eye tracking metrics and overall preference testing were used to assess these products. Eye tracking data yielded quantitative data that was statistically analyzed using analysis of variance. A post experiment survey was given to participants to collect demographics and additional data was completed through chi‐squared tests for association. No significant difference was found between color harmonies and preference, nor was there significance for the eye tracking metrics. These results of no significance are ideal for designers because it gives them the freedom to use their judgment when designing packaging labels. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: March 2016

ABSTRACTNeonatal handling is an experimental procedure used to analyze the effects of environmental interventions during early postpartum days (PPD). Long‐lasting effects of repeated stress exposure in the neonatal period on the maternal side are poorly studied in this model. The aim of this study was to verify if handling the pups induces enduring effects on damśstress responses, increasing their risk for depression. Dams were divided into two groups (NH‐Non‐handled and H‐Handled) based on the handling procedure (pups were handled for 1 min/per day from PPD1–PPD10) and then subdivided into four groups (NH, NH + S, H, and H + S) based on the exposure or not to restraint stress after weaning (1 hr/per day for 7 days, PPD22–PPD28). We analyzed damśbehavior in the forced swimming test (FST PPD29–PPD30), plasma basal corticosterone and BDNF levels, as well as adrenal weight (PPD31). The results show that handling alters the stress response of dams to acute and chronic stress, as evidenced by dams of the H group having increased immobility in the first day of FST (p < .001), similar to NH + S (p < .01). Dams of the H and H + S groups show decreased levels of corticosterone when compared to NH and NH + S groups (p < .05), but the H + S group shows an increased adrenal weight, suggesting an increased sensibility of the maternal organism to the chronic stress applied after weaning (p < .05). We show that handling may induce a long‐lasting effect on maternal stress response; these changes in the damśemotional reactivity increase their susceptibility for the development of psychiatric disorders such as depression. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Factors associated With the development of motor proficiency in school children of Kolkata: A cross‐sectional study to assess the role of chronic nutritional and socio‐economic status
Authors: Ghosh Satabdi , Ghosh Tusharkanti , Dutta Chowdhury Sutanu , Wrotniak Brian H. , Chandra Ananga Mohan 
Published: March 2016

ABSTRACTBackground: Development of coordinated movements is determined among others by individual growth and environmental factors, but the dynamic relationship between motor proficiency and potential contributing factors such as chronic nutritional status and socio‐economic status (SES) is not known in school children of Kolkata. Aim: To characterize the motor proficiency in school children of Kolkata and to investigate association of chronic nutritional and SES on motor proficiency. Methods: Motor proficiency in 843 school children of Kolkata aged 5–12 years was assessed by the Bruininks–Oseretsky Test of Motor‐Proficiency‐Second Edition‐Short Form (BOT‐2 SF). Chronic nutritional status was determined from height‐for‐age Z‐scores (HAZ) using WHO reference and SES was measured using the updated Kuppuswamy's scale. Results: Children's motor proficiency was poor compared with the reference values. Children classified as severely undernourished and children of lower SES were found to be “below average” and “well‐below average” in motor proficiency categories compared with normal nourished groups and children of upper SES. Children's BOT‐2 SF standardized scores decreased incrementally with the severity of chronic undernutrition and lower grades of SES. Conclusion: Chronic undernutrition and lower SES are associated with poorer motor proficiency in children. Understanding the complex interrelationships that shape childen's motor skills can help inform the development of health promotion programs and tailored interventions to help children reach their full potential. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Evolutionary ecology of aging: time to reconcile field and laboratory research
Authors: Reichard Martin 
Published: March 2016

AbstractAging is an increase in mortality risk with age due to a decline in vital functions. Research on aging has entered an exciting phase. Advances in biogerontology have demonstrated that proximate mechanisms of aging and interventions to modify lifespan are shared among species. In nature, aging patterns have proven more diverse than previously assumed. The paradigm that extrinsic mortality ultimately determines evolution of aging rates has been questioned and there appears to be a mismatch between intra‐ and inter‐specific patterns. The major challenges emerging in evolutionary ecology of aging are a lack of understanding of the complexity in functional senescence under natural conditions and unavailability of estimates of aging rates for matched populations exposed to natural and laboratory conditions. I argue that we need to reconcile laboratory and field‐based approaches to better understand (1) how aging rates (baseline mortality and the rate of increase in mortality with age) vary across populations within a species, (2) how genetic and environmental variation interact to modulate individual expression of aging rates, and (3) how much intraspecific variation in lifespan is attributable to an intrinsic (i.e., nonenvironmental) component. I suggest integration of laboratory and field assays using multiple matched populations of the same species, along with measures of functional declines.

Published: March 2016

AbstractDitch cleaning in drained peatland forests increases sediment loads and degrades water quality in headwater streams and lakes. A better understanding of the processes controlling ditch erosion and sediment transport in such systems is a prerequisite for proper peatland management. In order to relate hydrological observations to key erosion processes in headwater peatlands drained for forestry, a two‐year study was conducted in a nested sub‐catchment system (treated with ditch cleaning) and at two reference sites. The treated catchment was instrumented for continuous discharge and turbidity monitoring, erosion pin measurements of changes in ditch bed and banks and time‐integrated sampling of suspended sediment (SS) composition. The results showed that ditch cleaning clearly increased transient suspended sediment concentrations (SSCs) and suspended sediment yields (SSYs), and resulted in temporary storage of loosely deposited organic sediment in the ditch network. After exhaustion of this sediment storage, subaerial processes and erosion from ditch banks became dominant in producing sediment for transport. Recorded SSCs were higher on the rising limbs of event hydrographs throughout the study period, indicating that SS transport was limited by availability of erosion‐prone sediment. A strong positive correlation (R2 = 0.84, p < 0.001) between rainfall intensity (above a threshold of 1 mm h−1) and average SSC obtained on the rising limb of hydrographs for the sub‐catchment showed that soil detachment from ditch banks by raindrop impact can directly increase SSC in runoff. At the main catchment outlet, variation in SSC was best explained (R2 = 0.67, p < 0.05) by the linear combination of initial discharge (−), peak discharge (+) and the lag time from initial to peak discharge (−). Based on these factors, ditch cleaning slightly increased peak discharges and decreased transit times in the study catchment. The implications of the results for water pollution management in peatland forests are discussed. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Morphology and distribution of dolines on ultramafic rocks from airborne LiDAR data: the case of southern Grande Terre in New Caledonia (SW Pacific)
Authors: Jeanpert Julie , Genthon Pierre , Maurizot Pierre , Folio Jean‐Luc , Vendé‐Leclerc Myriam , Sérino Jeremy , Join Jean‐Lambert , Iseppi Marion 
Published: March 2016

AbstractDolines are closed geomorphological depressions which are surface manifestations of karstic systems. Usually developed on limestones, they also typify the morphology of the New Caledonian landscape, particularly on the southern massif of the main island (known as Massif du Sud). The specificity of dolines here lies in their development on ultramafic rocks. They are evidences of subsidence, suffosion and collapse phenomena resulting from dissolution weathering of peridotites. However, extensive underground drainage systems are still not yet recognized.Semi‐automatic mapping of dolines is carried out on a 148 km2 area of the Massif du Sud from a high accuracy LiDAR digital elevation model. In this area 8601 dolines ranging from 1 m2 to 2 km2 are identified and morphologically characterized with precision. Most are small, shallow and round‐shaped, yet more complex shapes are locally observed. Size distribution analysis allows the setting of a threshold of 20 000 m2 above which surface processes rather than chemical weathering control doline evolution. Doline density analysis reveals high concentrations on flat areas where ferricrete overlies the complete weathering profile, especially in the case of elevated rainy watersheds. Dolines are aligned and elongated along a north 135° ± 5° major fracture direction, which is inherited from the obduction of the Pacific Plate upper mantle in the Late Eocene.Finally, we propose a pioneering morphometric typology of dolines that provides important clues as to pseudokarstic activity. We define collapse, bowl‐shaped and flat bottom dolines. Collapse and bowl‐shaped dolines are assumed to denote active pseudokarst. They may widen and deepen, or eventually be filled by sediments. They are distinguished from flat bottom dolines that are partially to completely filled, which suggests that they are associated with paleo‐pseudokarsts. However the groundwater flow paths associated with the genesis and evolution of dolines must be clarified, thus collapse and bowl‐shaped dolines should be hydrologically monitored.

Soil organic matter content effects on dermal pesticide bioconcentration in American toads (Bufo americanus)

Published: March 2016

Abstract

Pesticides have been implicated as a major factor in global amphibian declines and may pose great risk to terrestrial phase amphibians moving to and from breeding ponds on agricultural landscapes. Dermal uptake from soil is known to occur in amphibians, but predicting pesticide availability and bioconcentration across soil types is not well understood. The present study was designed to compare uptake of 5 current-use pesticides (imidacloprid, atrazine, triadimefon, fipronil, and pendimethalin) in American toads (Bufo americanus) from exposure on soils with significant organic matter content differences (14.1% = high organic matter and 3.1% = low organic matter). We placed toads on high- or low-organic matter soil after applying individual current-use pesticides on the soil surface for an 8-h exposure duration. Whole body tissue homogenates and soils were extracted and analyzed using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry to determine pesticide tissue and soil concentration, as well as bioconcentration factor in toads. Tissue concentrations were greater on the low-organic matter soil than the high-organic matter soil across all pesticides (average ± standard error; 1.23 ± 0.35 ppm and 0.78 ± 0.23 ppm, respectively), and bioconcentration was significantly higher for toads on the low-organic matter soil (analysis of covariance p = 0.002). Soil organic matter is known to play a significant role in the mobility of pesticides and bioavailability to living organisms. Agricultural soils typically have relatively lower organic matter content and serve as a functional habitat for amphibians. The potential for pesticide accumulation in amphibians moving throughout agricultural landscapes may be greater and should be considered in conservation and policy efforts.

Calories and sugars in boba milk tea: implications for obesity risk in Asian Pacific Islanders
Authors: Min Jae Eun , Green David B. , Kim Loan 
Published: March 2016

AbstractIn the last several decades, obesity rates have reached epidemic proportions, and increases the risk for a host of comorbidities, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain kinds of cancers. Boba milk tea, first became popular in the 1990s throughout Asia, and has gained more popularity in the United States and in Europe since 2000. Currently, available nutrition data from online sites suggest this beverage contains high amounts of sugar and fat. One published nutrition study suggests that boba tea drinks are part of the larger group of sugar‐sweetened beverages (SSB) because these beverages are usually sweetened with high‐fructose corn syrup (HFCS). This study experimentally determined the sugar composition (sucrose, fructose, glucose, and melezitose) and calorific values of boba milk tea drinks and their components. Results suggested that boba drinks fit the US Dietary Guidelines definition of a SSB. One 16‐ounce boba drink exceeds the upper limit of added sugar intake recommended by the 2015 US Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. The high caloric and sugar content of boba beverages pose public health concerns as they have the potential to further exacerbate the childhood obesity epidemic. Nutrition education targeting Asian populations should give special attention to boba tea as a SSB. Also, prudent public health recommendations should be suggested for moderate consumption of these beverages. With the growing popularity of boba beverages in the United States, the findings from this study provide public health practitioners with valuable data on how boba beverages compare with other SSBs.
