Maximizing projects’ profitability, environmental score, and quality: a multi-project scheduling and material ordering problem

Published: April 2023

Abstract
The proper trade-off between various project costs is often disregarded when planning projects. This leads to several detrimental effects, such as inaccurate planning and higher total cost, far more significant in a multi-project environment. To overcome this limitation, this study proposes a combined approach for the multi-project scheduling and material ordering problem (MPSMOP), which maintains the proper trade-off among various costs. Moreover, the environmental impact and project quality objectives are optimized alongside the economic criterion. The proposed methodology involves three stages: (a) quantifying the environmental performance of suppliers; (b) measuring the activities’ quality through the Construction Quality Assessment System approach; and (c) building and solving the mathematical model of the MPSMOP. The MPSMOP is modeled as a tri-objective optimization approach aiming to determine project scheduling and material ordering decisions so that the net present value, environmental score, and total quality of implemented projects are maximized simultaneously. As the proposed model comes into the nondeterministic polynomial optimization problem category, two powerful metaheuristics are customized and used to solve the problem. The efficiency of both algorithms was assessed on several datasets. The proposed framework is applied to railway construction projects in Iran as a case study, which presents the validity of the model and the decision-making options provided to managers.

Abstract
This study investigates spatio-temporal variations of PM10 mass concentrations and associated metal(oid)s, δ13C carbon isotope ratios, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), total organic carbon (TOC) and equivalent black carbon (eBC) concentrations over a half year period (from March 2017 to October 2017) in two residential areas of Medellín (MED-1 and MED-2) and Itagüí municipality (ITA-1 and ITA-2) at a tropical narrow valley (Aburrá Valley, Colombia), where few data are available. A total of 104 samples were analysed by using validated analytical methodologies, providing valuable data for PM10 chemical characterisation. Metal(oid)s concentrations were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) after acid digestion, and PAHs concentrations were measured by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS) after Pressurised Hot Water Extraction (PHWE) and Membrane Assisted Solvent Extraction (MASE). Mean PM10 mass concentration ranged from 37.0 µg m−3 to 45.7 µg m−3 in ITA-2 and MED-2 sites, respectively. Al, Ca, Mg and Na (from 6249 ng m−3 for Mg at MED-1 site to 10,506 ng m−3 for Ca at MED-2 site) were the major elements in PM10 samples, whilst As, Be, Bi, Co, Cs, Li, Ni, Sb, Se, Tl and V were found at trace levels (< 5.4 ng m−3). Benzo[g,h,i] perylene (BghiP), benzo[b + j]fluoranthene (BbjF) and indene(1,2,3-c,d)pyrene (IcdP) were the most profuse PAHs in PM10 samples, with average concentrations of 0.82–0.86, 0.60–0.78 and 0.47–0.58 ng m−3, respectively. Results observed in the four sampling sites showed a similar dispersion pattern of pollutants, with temporal fluctuations which seems to be associated to the meteorology of the valley. A PM source apportionment study were carried out by using the positive matrix factorization (PMF) model, pointing to re-suspended dust, combustion processes, quarry activity and secondary aerosols as PM10 sources in the study area. Among them, combustion was the major PM10 contribution (accounting from 32.1 to 32.9% in ITA-1 and ITA-2, respectively), followed by secondary aerosols (accounting for 13.2% and 23.3% ITA-1 and MED-1, respectively). Finally, a moderate carcinogenic risk was observed for PM10-bound PAHs exposure via inhalation, whereas significant carcinogenic risk was estimated for carcinogenic metal(oid)s exposure in the area during the sampling period.

Published: April 2023

AbstractWildflowers in uncultivated field margin are important resources supporting both pest and non-pest thrips populations in agroecosystems. Environmental factors related to wildflowers have never been used as predictors to model pest thrips density in adjacent crops. Wild and cultivated flowers were sampled in strawberry field agroecosystem in Orléans Island, near Quebec City, Canada. Pest flower thripsFrankliniella intonsaandF. triticihad a wide wildflower host range, with preferences towardLeucanthemum vulgare,Trifolium pratense,Sonchus asper, andCichorium intybus. Regression modeling revealed significant positive relationships between pest thrips density on specific wildflowers (Vicia cracca,Sinapis arvensis,S. asper,C. intybus,L. vulgare) and their density in strawberry flowers. Furthermore, thrips density within the crop decreased with distance from uncultivated field margin. Regarding crop management, knowing the associations between thrips pests and preferred wild flora as well as their spatial distribution in strawberry fields is an undeniable advantage.

AbstractThe purpose of this study is to establish and test a reference data set of dental development of Qatari subjects aged between 5 and 25 years. Radiographs of individuals aged between 5 and 25 years were re-used to establish a reference data set (RDS). A scheme comprising 8 tooth development stages (TDS) was used to assess all the teeth on the left side of the maxilla and mandible. The accuracy of dental age estimation (DAE) was tested with a separate sample of radiographs – the validation sample (VS) comprised 50 females and 50 males of known chronological age (CA). Dental panoramic tomographs (DPT) of 1,597 Qataris were assessed. The summary data for the individual TDS comprising the number (n-tds), mean ($$\overline{\mathrm{x} }$$

-tds), standard deviation (sd-tds), 0th%-ile (the minimum), 25th%-ile, 50th%-ile (the median), 75th%-ile, and 100th%-ile (the maximum) were used to estimate the age of the VS subjects using the simple average method (SAM). There is a significant difference in dental age of 4.8 months in the female group when compared to the CA. The difference in the male group is 4.5 months. This shows similar differences to assessments of other ancestral or ethnic groups.
Long-time follow-up of patients with untreated peripheral T cell lymphoma following chidamide combined with cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, vindesine, prednisone, and etoposide therapy: a single-center propensity score-matching study

Abstract
Purpose

This is a retrospective, single-center PSM study evaluating the efficacy and safety of chidamide combined with the CHOEP (C-CHOEP) regimen versus the single CHOEP regimen in patients with untreated peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCL).

Patients
Patients newly diagnosed with PTCL between January 2015 and June 2021 were recruited, and were 1:1 divided into C-CHOEP and CHOEP groups according to their first-line chemotherapy regimens. The PSM method was used to match the baseline variables to balance the confounding factors.

Results

A cohort of 33 patients each in the C-CHOEP and CHOEP groups was generated after propensity score-matching (PSM). The complete remission (CR) rates of the C-CHOEP regimen were higher than that of the CHOEP regimen (56.3 vs. 25.8%, p = 0.014), whereas the duration of response of the C-CHOEP group was shorter (median DOR 30 vs. 57 months), resulting in roughly similar progression-free survival (PFS) and (overall survival) OS between the two groups. The responding patients who received chidamide maintenance therapy showed a trend of superior PFS and OS compared with patients who did not receive maintenance therapy.

Conclusions

The C-CHOEP regimen was well tolerated but failed to show advantages over the CHOEP regimen in patients with untreated PTCL; however, the chidamide maintenance may contribute to a more durable response and stable long-term survival.

AbstractA detailed geological-depositional model and a clear understanding of the depositional elements of reservoirs decrease the drilling risks in the development of oil and gas fields. Building an effective geological model is a challenge in West El-Burullus (WEB) area because of its complicated reservoir, which consists of turbidite incised canyons system of Pliocene shales intercalated with sands. These canyons have occurred due to turbidity currents associated with the basin slope forming Kafr El-Sheikh Formation. Deducting the geological-depositional model and basins architecture is carried out utilizing the integration of seismic geomorphology, seismic facies analysis, sequence stratigraphy, and petrophysical analysis. The available datasets comprise a 3D seismic cube and logs of the WEB-1 well. Analyses of these data revealed various lithological facies relations and their paleo-depositional environments. This study demonstrated that Kafr El-Sheik Formation comprises a third-order sequence of turbidite units in-filling a canyon named WEB canyon with five sedimentary facies components: basal lobe through the incised old canyon, amalgamated channels fill, followed by splays, lobes, levees either proximal or distal facies, then the last plugged channels. Time–frequency spectral decomposition of time slices at the base and the top of the WEB canyon assisted the description of the litho-morphological and facies distribution of the concealed Kafr El-Sheikh Formation turbidity incisions and recognized reservoir trending and the canyon fairway. The turbidity facies with high reservoir quality was found in the overbank sedimentary distribution channels such as proximal levees and splays that reflected good to excellent petrophysical reservoir characteristics.

Published: April 2023

AbstractThe Internet of Things is an ecosystem that connects billions of smart devices, meters, and sensors. These devices and sensors collect and share data for use and evaluation by organizations in different industry sectors. Humans may use the IoT to live and work more intelligently and gain total control over their lives. Consequently, IoT can be used to connect devices and integrate them with new digital technologies for customers. On the other hand, smart utility companies in the electric, gas, and water sectors need to deliver services more efficiently and analyze their operations in a way that can help optimize performance, detect growing problems in real time, and initiate fixes to avoid unplanned service interruptions. Building actual smart metering networks is costly and time-consuming. Therefore, in this paper, a new Smart Utilities Traffic Scheduling Algorithm (SUTSA) is proposed. To minimize the system complexity, the model is based on narrowband power line communication, in which a wired hidden network sends data across power lines. A simulation is performed using OPNET Modeler 14.5 to evaluate the proposed model. The results proved that the proposed model is highly scalable and achieves full network-bandwidth utilization in different situations based on different application requirements.

Published: April 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Im Rettungsdienst (RD) sind psychische Belastungen im Arbeitsalltag im besonderen Maße vertreten. Für einen umfassenden Blick auf die mentale Gesundheit und um Gesundheitsbeeinträchtigungen durch arbeitsbezogene Belastungen zu erkennen, ist das Wohlbefinden eine wichtige Größe. In dieser Befragung sollten Zusammenhänge zwischen subjektivem Wohlbefinden und dem arbeitsbezogenen Verhaltens- und Erlebensmuster untersucht werden. Ziel war es, Interventionsbereiche für die Gesundheitsförderung aufzuzeigen und einen Beitrag zur Primärprävention im RD zu leisten.

Methodik
In einer Online-Umfrage wurden 508 Einsatzkräfte im RD befragt. Das Durchschnittsalter der teilnehmenden Personen betrug 32,8 ± 9,16 Jahre. Mit Hilfe des AVEM-Fragebogens (arbeitsbezogenes Verhaltens- und Erlebensmuster) konnten 381 der befragten Einsatzkräfte einem der 4 AVEM-Muster (A, B, G und S) und 127 (25,5 %) keinem Muster zugeordnet werden. Anhand dieser Eingruppierung wurden Unterschiede in der Ausprägung des Wohlbefindens mit dem WHO-5-Fragebogen analysiert.

Ergebnisse
In der Gesamtstichprobe ergab sich für mehr als 83,9 % (426) der befragten Personen ein gutes subjektives Wohlbefinden. Es ließen sich jedoch signifikante Unterschiede zwischen dem subjektiven Wohlbefinden der 4 AVEM-Muster nachweisen. Hierbei gaben besonders Einsatzkräfte mit dem gesundheitsförderlichen Muster G signifikant besseres Wohlbefinden an, als solche mit gesundheitsbeeinträchtigenden Musterausprägungen (B und A). Persönliche Eigenschaften wie das Alter und Dienstjahre zeigten keine signifikanten Zusammenhänge zum Wohlbefinden.

Diskussion
In der Betrachtung der Zusammenhänge des subjektiven Wohlbefindens mit den AVEM-Muster-Ausprägungen der befragten Personen ergaben sich deutliche Interventionsbereiche für die Gesundheitsförderung bei den Risikomustern A und B.

AbstractConsidering the prevalence and increased use of online social networking sites (SNSs), the present study investigated the association between visiting SNSs and users’ subjective wellbeing. Data were collected from 251 participants and were analyzed using partial least square-based structural equation modeling. The findings showed that there was no significant direct influence of SNS use on users’ subjective wellbeing. Additionally, the study found a significant mediating influence of passion on the association between SNS visits and subjective wellbeing. Moreover, the study did not find any significant negative mediating impact of obsession with SNS visits and association with subjective wellbeing. Among various personality traits, openness to experience had a positive moderating impact and neuroticism had a negative moderating impact on the association between SNS visits and subjective wellbeing among SNS users. The study provides implications for managers and parents regarding improved SNS use and increased subjective wellbeing.

Published: April 2023

AbstractExploiting plants by-product properties for combined crop growth regulation and pest management could represent a strategy for a more sustainable agriculture. The present study investigated the potential activity (at different product concentrations) of a novel pine wood distillate (PWD) obtained as an industrial by-product, on multiple targets in the agroecosystem. In the weed species, Sylibum marianum, PWD stimulated a more than twofold increase of seed germination and seedling development, while it was able to inhibit by up to 70% the growth of the soil-borne plant pathogen Fusarium culmorum on durum wheat seedlings. PWD was also able to induce behavioural changes in mature females of the fruit fly Ceratitis capitata, with a significant reduction in the visit and oviposition rate on treated orange fruits (53% and 62% less, respectively). Analysis of PWD chemical composition suggested a role of phenolic compounds in the observed species-specific effects. Taken together, these results support a multivalent exploitation of wood distillates in the management of important crops of the Mediterranean area, aligning with both circular economy and environmental protection principles.Please confirm if the author names are presented accurately and in the correct sequence (given name, middle name/initial, family name).

A generalization of Kruskal’s theorem on tensor decomposition
Authors: Lovitz Benjamin , Petrov Fedor 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
Kruskal’s theorem states that a sum of product tensors constitutes a unique tensor rank decomposition if the so-called k-ranks of the product tensors are large. We prove a ‘splitting theorem’ for sets of product tensors, in which the k-rank condition of Kruskal’s theorem is weakened to the standard notion of rank, and the conclusion of uniqueness is relaxed to the statement that the set of product tensors splits (i.e., is disconnected as a matroid). Our splitting theorem implies a generalization of Kruskal’s theorem. While several extensions of Kruskal’s theorem are already present in the literature, all of these use Kruskal’s original permutation lemma and hence still cannot certify uniqueness when the k-ranks are below a certain threshold. Our generalization uses a completely new proof technique, contains many of these extensions and can certify uniqueness below this threshold. We obtain several other useful results on tensor decompositions as consequences of our splitting theorem. We prove sharp lower bounds on tensor rank and Waring rank, which extend Sylvester’s matrix rank inequality to tensors. We also prove novel uniqueness results for nonrank tensor decompositions.

Abstract
Participatory research denotes the engagement and meaningful involvement of the community of interest across multiple stages of investigation, from design to data collection, analysis, and publication. Traditionally, people with first-hand experience of psychiatric diagnoses, service users, and those living with a psychosocial disability have been seen objects rather than agents of research and knowledge production, despite the ethical and practical benefits of their involvement. The state of the art of knowledge about participatory research in mental health Brazil is poorly understood outside of its local context. The purpose of this article was to conduct a scoping review of participatory and user-led research in mental health in Brazil. We identified 20 articles that met eligibility criteria. Participation in research was not treated as separate from participation in shaping mental health policy, driving care, or the broader right to fully participate in societal life and enjoy social and civil rights. Studies identified several obstacles to full participation, including the biomedical model, primacy of academic and scientific knowledge, and systemic barriers. Our extraction, charting, and synthesis yielded four themes: power, knowledge, autonomy, and empowerment. Participation in this context must address the intersecting vulnerabilities experienced by those who are both Brazilian and labeled as having a mental illness. Participatory research and Global South leadership must foreground local epistemologies that can contribute to the global debate about participation and mental health research.
Dual Evolutionary Foundations of Political Ideology Predict Divergent Responses to COVID-19
Authors: Fischer Kyle , Chaudhuri Ananish , Atkinson Quentin D. 
Published: April 2023

AbstractPolitical conservatives' opposition to COVID-19 restrictions is puzzling given the well-documented links between conservatism and conformity, threat sensitivity, and pathogen aversion. We propose a resolution based on the Dual Foundations Theory of ideology, which holds that ideology comprises two dimensions, one reflecting trade-offs between threat-driven conformity and individualism, and another reflecting trade-offs between empathy-driven cooperation and competition. We test predictions derived from this theory in a UK sample using individuals' responses to COVID-19 and widely-used measures of the two dimensions – ‘right-wing authoritarianism’ (RWA) and ‘social dominance orientation’ (SDO), respectively. Consistent with our predictions, we show that RWA, but not SDO, increased following the pandemic and that high-RWA conservatives do display more concerned, conformist, pro-lockdown attitudes, while high-SDO conservatives display less empathic, cooperative attitudes and are anti-lockdown. This helps explain paradoxical prior results and highlights how a focus on unidimensional ideology can mask divergent motives across the ideological landscape.
