Model-based analysis of cerebrovascular diseases combining 3D and 4D MRA datasets
Authors: Forkert Nils D. 
Published: June 2015

Abstract
The cerebral stroke is a major cause for death and
disability. Clinical diagnosis, therapy, and research of stroke can
considerably benefit from modern image acquisition methods, which
enable a detailed analysis of cerebral blood vessel anatomy as well as
an examination of macrovascular and tissue blood flow
dynamics. However, visual screening of these datasets can be complex
and time-consuming due to the vast amount of data. This article
provides an overview of a dissertation, which addresses the problem of
an automatic combined analysis and visualization of high-resolution 3D
and spatiotemporal (4D) image sequences from the same patient to
support diagnosis, treatment decision, and research of cerebrovascular
diseases. Therefore, automatic methods for the cerebrovascular
segmentation, analysis of the cerebral blood flow and tissue
perfusion, as well as the combined quantitative analysis and
visualization of the vessel morphology and blood flow dynamics were
developed. Apart from a potential clinical application, the developed
methods have already proven useful in multiple clinical research
studies.

Authors: Rădulescu G.M.T. , Rădulescu A.T.G. , Rădulescu M.V.G. , Naş Sanda 
Published: June 2015

Abstract
Structural Health Monitoring is an extremely complex and relatively expensive activity, and the current offer of tools, methods and technologies is varied, which can lead to a virtually high number of structural monitoring systems that can be customized for each case. In time, the monitoring of bridges became the engine for the development of SHM tools, methods and technologies, or manager monitoring systems. The case study, in continuous quasi-static condition, was performed on Incheon Grand Bridge South Korea. Tracking the behaviour of an objective under the influence of sunshine is performed by VCE Vienna Consulting Engineers ZT GmbH. This paper presents the effect of sunshine on a steel structural element, the first lamella front North line, by comparing data pairs that reflect the cause: steel temperature and the effect: the movement of a sensor mounted on the structural element. The analysis was performed using several software dedicated to mathematical modelling, trying to establish different mathematical models that can be tested and validated.
Territory Lost – Climate Change and the Violation of Self-determination Rights
Authors: Dietrich Frank , Wündisch Joachim 
Published: June 2015

Abstract
Inhabitants of low-lying islands flooded due to anthropogenic climate change will lose their territory and thereby their ability to exercise their right to political self-determination. This paper addresses the normative questions which arise when climate change threatens territorial rights. It explores whether the loss of statehood supports a claim to territorial compensation, and if so, how it can be satisfied. The paper concludes that such claims are well founded and that they should be met by providing compensatory territories. After introducing a differentiation between land rights and territorial rights, previous theoretical responses to the problem of sinking islands are criticized. It is argued that states may be required to give up parts of their territory as compensation. The paper develops criteria of sufficiency for compensatory territories and proposes to base their selection process on a negative auction. Since it is unlikely that unsettled compensatory territories that meet the specified requirements are available, the rights of their original inhabitants are discussed.
Young People’s Narratives of Media and Identity
Authors: Schofield Daniel , Kupiainen Reijo 
Published: June 2015

Abstract
The article explores how upper secondary students use the learning activity mediagraphy to reflect on their identity and on media as constraining and enabling factors in their social practice. In mediagraphy, the students research four generations of their own families, including themselves. They write a mediagraphy essay on the differences and similarities across the generations in media use and turning points in individuals’ lives, in addition to societal and media-related developments. Data from student products and interviews are analysed through three “identity dilemmas” that any identity claim faces: the constant navigation between 1) continuity and change, 2) sameness and difference with regard to others, and 3) agency as “person-to-world” and “world-to-person”. The findings suggest that mediagraphy is a type of identity work that can potentially help students develop an agentive identity in a time of insecurity, with rapidly shifting social and cultural conditions and increasing media density.
On the Extent to which the Presence of Intermediate-stop(s) Air Travel Products Influences the Pricing of Nonstop Air Travel Products
Authors: Gayle Philip G. , Wu Chi-Yin 
Published: June 2015

AbstractAnalysts of air travel markets, which include antitrust authorities, are interested in understanding the extent to which the presence of intermediate stop(s) products influences the pricing of nonstop products. This paper uses a structural econometric model to investigate the potential pricing interdependence between these two product types in domestic air travel markets. Counterfactual experiments using the estimated model suggest that in many (but far from a majority) markets the current prices of nonstop products are at least 5% lower than they would otherwise be owing to the presence of intermediate-stop(s) products.
Refinement by atomicity
Authors: Yuen Pui Sum 
Published: June 2015

Abstract
Besides the commonly employed refinement by minimization of the R factor, there is refinement by atomicity. These two refinements lead to two refined structures. Both structures are reasonable and close to each other. The differences between the results of these two refinements are significant. Refinement by atomicity is used as a supplement to refinement by minimization of R factor. For any crystal structure determined by minimization of R factor or other method, with all atoms determined and occupancy of each site equal to 1, in principle, refinement by atomicity should be applied. The purpose is to improve the atomic coordinates. It remains for the X-ray crystallographers to devise a procedure to obtain an improved structure from these two refined structures. The procedure can then be applied to all crystal structures reported in the literatures, or will be published in the future. This means that most articles in X-ray crystallography need to be improved. Many articles and books in other disciplines directly or indirectly contain or use structural informations, such as bond lengths and bond angles, obtained in X-ray crystallography. All these articles and books need to be revised.
Die Antwort der Debrecener neuen Orthodoxie auf den theologischen Liberalismus in Ungarn
Authors: Kovács Ábrahám 
Published: June 2015

AbstractThe Response of Debrecen New Orthodoxy to Liberal Theology in Hungary. The Reformed Church of Hungary was not exempt from the impact of various theological schools of Western Europe during the nineteenth century. The historical theological school of Tübingen, the Swiss liberal and moderate theology and the Dutch ‘moderne theologie’ held a great sway on Hungarian Protestantism in particularly Reformed Theology. Parallel to this development another and distinct trend appeared as a response to the challenges posed by liberal theology, which preferred traditional theological stances. In consequence not only liberal theology but also orthodox, evangelical, and pietist theologies were transferred from England, Scotland, Switzerland, Germany and France to Hungary. While Germany experienced already in the 1840s and 1850 serious theological debates, Hungarian Protestantism was late to encounter a similar debate due to the political-historical situation. It is only after the Ausgleich (1867), the Agreement between Austrian and Hungarian aristocracy that in the era of political and national freedom theological debates surfaced and became really intense. The fiercest theological debate unfolded between the liberal theologians led by Mór Ballagi, a professor in Budapest, and the neo-orthodoxy of Debrecen Reformed University where Imre Révész sen., a local minister and Ferenc Balogh, professor of Dogma and Church History became the leading voices. This pioneering study seeks to demonstrate how the response of Debrecen neo-orthodoxy came into being in response to extremely liberal form of theology, which was organised and promoted by Mór Ballagi (Moritz Bloch), a convert from Judaism to Christianity
„Und das Geheimnis der Liebe ist größer als das Geheimnis des Todes“. Religion, Sexualität und Kunst – München um 1900
Authors: Rohls Jan 
Published: June 2015

AbstractAround 1900 the relation between religion and sexuality became a favorite subject of art. Munich was the place where some of the most relevant works of art where produced at this time. In 1905 the opera “Salome” was composed by the Munichborn Richard Strauß, based on Oscar Wilde’s drama and dealing with the relation between sexual love, religion and death. In quite a different way Oscar Panizza’s “Liebeskonzil” is concerned with the same topic. Here it is not the decadent court of Herodes with John the Baptist as religious prophet and Salome falling in deadly love with him but the oversexualized Vatican at the time of Alexander Borgia punished by God with the syphilis. Religion and sexuality also form the background of the Wedekind’s unfinished “Ella”, an early stage of the development of his famous “Lulu”, and they play a central role in Thomas Mann’s novel “Gladius Dei”, a byproduct of his drama “Fiorenza”. Here sexuality and art are represented by the Florentine court ofLorenzo de’ Medici whereas the friar Savonarola is the representative of the religious opposition
Monte Carlo Calculations on Models for High Energy Atomic Reactions
Authors: Rowland F. S. , Coulter P. 
Published: June 2015

Summary
A Monte Carlo calculation has been performed to evaluate the yields expected from the kinetic theory of hot atom reactions for various combinations of parameters. The calculations here have been performed for the elastic, isotropic model and for an isotropic, pseudoelastic model in which the maximum energy loss is treated as a free parameter. The total hot yield, Y,
is given for a pure Compound with sufficient accuracy to be useful by the formula Y = 1 - exp (- I/α). The hot yield from recoil tritium reaction with A
diluted by helium is approximately given by YA
= 1 - exp(-ƒAIA/αAB
). This formula falls to describe recoil tritium behavior in other inert gases because of changing values of αAB
in the reactive chemical range.
206Hg als Verzweigungsglied in der Uran-Radium-Zerfallreihe
Authors: Wolf Gerhard Κ. , Lux Franz 
Published: June 2015

Zusammenfassung
Das auf Grund der α-Verzweigung von 210Pb (RaD) zu erwartende 206Hg konnte in gut meßbarer Menge aus 100 mC RaD abgetrennt werden. Die Trennung läßt sich sehr rasch in zwei Sehritten durchführen. Zunächst wird die Hauptmenge RaE und RaF vom RaD durch Adsorption an einer HgO-Säule und anschließend nach Zusatz von Hg-Träger das RaD mit den Resten des RaE, RaF, RaE" vom 206Hg durch mehrstufige Fällung (Dauer 5 Minuten) getrennt. Die Halbwertszeit wurde aus γ- und β-Messungen zu 8,1 ± 0,4 min bestimmt. Das -γ-Spektrum zeigt eine Linie bei 310±10 KeV. Aus dem Zerfallszyklus ergibt sich die Maximalenergie der /i-Strahlung zu 0,98 bzw. 1,29 MeV. Für die α-Verzweigungsrate von RaD wurde der Wert (2,7 ±0,6)・10-8 gefunden. Die möglichen Energieniveauschemata des 206Tl werden im Zusammenhang mit den Meßergebnissen diskutiert.
Production of Energetic Atoms by Multiple Collisions
Authors: Wotzak G. P. , Kostin M. D. 
Published: June 2015

Summary
The production of energetic atoms in the epithermal energy region by a high-energy atomic beam is considered by using the Boltzmann equation. Solutions of the Boltzmann equation show that numerous epithermal atoms may be generated as a result of scattering collisions in which an energetic atom transfers kinetic energy to a struck atom. For a system in which all the reactive and non-reactive cross sections have the same energy dependence and in which the thermal motion of the struck atoms can be neglected, numerical results obtained from a stochastic computer program confirm the analytical results for the asymptotic region and give detailed information on the energy dependence of the collision density for the non-asymptotic region near the source. Numerical calculations of reaction yields for a gaseous system containing two atomic species are also presented.

Les biens communaux et la "réaction seigneuriale" en Artois
Authors: Sallmann Jean-Michel 
Published: June 2015

"Common land and the feudal nobility's "reaction" in Artois".
Either directly by the means of mere confiscation and the use of their "droit de triage", or indirectly by the means of the ruthless extension of their "droit de plantis", the Artois feudal nobility added to their estates about 5000 hectares of common land (that is 40% of the total common land of the province) during the three decades that preceded the French Revolution. This does not characterize a "reactionary" conception of the privileged classes but rather the evolution of the feudal nobility in a capitalistic direction, in which regrouping of the land and speculation on the forests appear as being the most effective means of ensuring the highest rate of profit.
L'accumulation du capital dans l'indiennage au XVIIIème siècle
Authors: Caspard Pierre 
Published: June 2015

Pierre Caspard, "Kapitaalgroei in de Indische maatschappijen van de 18de eeuw".
Na een aarzelend begin speelden de Indische maatschappijen in de tweede helft van de 18de eeuw de roi van krachtige kapitaalpolen. Zij boden op een markt in voile expansie producten aan waarop zij een ruime winstmarge hadden en konden zo in de jaren 1760 hun eigen belangrijke groei financieren. Wegens veranderingen in de productie en op de markt nam de kapitaalvorming in de laatste jaren van de eeuw af , er ging kapitaal naar andere sectoren en de banken begonnen een meer aktieve roi te spelen in de financiering van de ondernemingen.
Le Moyen Age dans les paysages ruraux auvergnats
Authors: Aubrun Michel , Charbonnier Pierre , Fournier Gabriel 
Published: June 2015

Les auteurs ont recherché les vestiges médiévaux encore visibles dans les paysages auvergnats. La conquête du sol a été pratiquement achevée dans le courant des Xlème-Xllème et XI Même siècles : le peuplement a atteint alors ses limites extrêmes sous la forme de gros villages dans la plaine, de hameaux dans les moyennes montagnes, d'habitat temporaire dans les pacages d'estive.
Cette mise en place du peuplement s'est faite par retouches successives qui se sont traduites par la formation de finages réunissant des parcelles de cultures et des terres vaines, dans un cadre paroissial plus ou moins contraignant, et par un reclassement des lieux habités dont certains ont disparu.
Réceptions et inscriptions à la bourgeoisie de Lille aux XIVème et XVème siècles
Authors: Desportes Pierre 
Published: June 2015

The object of this study is to provide students with a complete series of figures concerning the receptions to the Lille "bourgeoisie", either through hereditary rights or by purchase, between 1291 and 1499, a series completed through the systematic confrontation of all available material, mainly the "registres aux bourgeois" and the yearly municipal accounts.
The critical survey of these sources yields some relatively new conclusions :
— the fee required of the sons of "bourgeois" to take over their father's "bourgeoisie", essentially of a symbolical character, was never altered and remained immutably fixed to 4 "sous" and 2 "deniers".
— the particularly heavy entrance fee set, since the XIII century, as an obstacle to the entry of outsiders, has been progressively lowered down since the XV century through the joined influence of monetary depreciation and of a fraud whose existence could not yet be entirely proved.
— the evolution of the "bourgeois" population of Lille in the XIV and XV centuries is in perfect agreement with the opinions generally held upon the evolution of town populations in France during this period.
Health information needs of professional nurses required at the point of care
Authors: Ricks Esmeralda , Ten Ham Wilma 
Published: June 2015

Background: Professional nurses work in dynamic environments and need to keep up to date with relevant information for practice in nursing to render quality patient care. Keeping up to date with current information is often challenging because of heavy workload, diverse information needs and the accessibility of the required information at the point of care. Objectives: The aim of the study was to explore and describe the information needs of professional nurses at the point of care in order to make recommendations to stakeholders to develop a mobile library accessible by means of smart phones when needed. Method: The researcher utilised a quantitative, descriptive survey design to conduct this study. The target population comprised 757 professional nurses employed at a state hospital. Simple random sampling was used to select a sample of the wards, units and departments for inclusion in the study. A convenience sample of 250 participants was selected. Two hundred and fifty structured self-administered questionnaires were distributed amongst the participants. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the data. Results: A total of 136 completed questionnaires were returned. The findings highlighted the types and accessible sources of information. Information needs of professional nurses were identified such as: extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis, multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis, HIV, antiretrovirals and all chronic lifestyle diseases. Conclusion: This study has enabled the researcher to identify the information needs required by professional nurses at the point of care to enhance the delivery of patient care. The research results were used to develop a mobile library that could be accessed by professional nurses.
Geospatial Data Quality Guarantee
Authors: Plante Katherine , Gervais Marc 
Published: June 2015

Geospatial data has become ubiquitous in our society and abundantly used by public institutions fulfilling their mandates as well as citizen managing their day-to-day affairs. But the dissemination of geospatial data raises certain issues surrounding the nature of the contract involved along with the quality guarantees that may be applicable. Should this data be treated as a tangible or intangible asset? Would the standard guarantees defined by our legislation apply if it were considered intangible? What about the specific characteristics of geospatial data? How simple would it be to guarantee its quality? This article presents an overview of geospatial data quality guarantees under Quebec law. We will first address the intrinsic characteristics of geospatial data, the concepts of quality guarantees and precision, along with implied and conventional guarantees. Next, we will investigate the potential effects of various contract categories on the scope, if not the very existence, of quality guarantees. The results of the analysis hold that a number of quality guarantee variations are possible and that some legal uncertainties remain, which further complicates the dissemination of geospatial data for any organization that seeks to do so.
Design Formulas for Broadband Concentric Circular-Loops Antennas
Authors: Ali Hamed S. M. , Osman A. A. 
Published: June 2015

This paper presents a simple formulas for designing broadband concentric circular-loops antennas (CCLAs). The loop dimensions for widest bandwidth are expressented in terms of the resonance frequency of the driven loop. The analysis addresses both cases CCLAs with and without ground planes. The presented formulas are employed to design multiple CCLAs. For example, a 3-elements CCLA of a maximum radius of 6.34 cm can be designed to operate with a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) < 2 over a frequencies band of a fractional bandwidth of 16.9% with a minimum directivity of 3.9 dB. Addionationally, a 4-elements CCLA of maximum radius of 15 cm can be design to operate in the frequency band extending from 825 MHz to 991 MHz (fractional bandwidth of 18.3%) with a VSWR < 2 and directivity higher than 5.2 dB over the entire band. Furthermore, the analysis shows that a 3-elements CCLA backed with a conducting ground plane improves the fractional bandwidth to 19.6% and directivity to 9.15 dB over the band of interest. The analytical results on designed antennas are validated with simulation results obtained by using the AN-SOF antenna simulation software. An excellent agreement is observed between analytical and AN-SOF simulations results.

AbstractThe seamless integration of advanced triboelectric nanogenerators with fiber material has propelled the rapid advancement of intelligent wearable electronics. The overheating and mechanical abrasion associated with prolonged operation poses a significant challenge for conventional fiber‐based triboelectric materials. Aramid fibers, characterized by high thermal stability, ultra‐high mechanical strength, and excellent insulating properties, can effectively compensate for the limitations of triboelectric materials. However, the intrinsic advantages of aramid fiber triboelectric materials and their general structural design strategies have not yet to be comprehensively elucidated. In this review, the synthesis methods and development history of aramid fiber triboelectric materials in recent years are summarized. Importantly, the unique advantages and development potential of aramid fibers as triboelectric materials are systematically discussed, particularly regarding high‐temperature resistance, high strength, and electrical insulation. Furthermore, the latest advancements in the structural design and performance modulation of aramid fiber triboelectric materials are presented. The aramid fiber‐based self‐powered wearable electronics in high‐temperature warning, impact monitoring, and human energy harvesting are summarized. Finally, the challenges and opportunities facing the future development of aramid fiber‐based triboelectric nanogenerators are discussed.
