description: We continue the study of the distribution of nonsupersymmetric flux vacua in IIb string theory compactified on Calabi-Yau manifolds, as in hep-th/0404116. We show that the basic structure of this problem is that of finding eigenvectors of the matrix of second derivatives of the superpotential, and that many features of the results are determined by features of the generic ensemble of such matrices, the CI ensemble of Altland and Zirnbauer originating in mesoscopic physics. We study some simple examples in detail, exhibiting various factors which can favor low or high scale supersymmetry breaking.

Permeability and durability of high volume fly ash concrete under an applied compressive stress
Creators: name: Biparva, Alireza
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The durability of concrete is one of its most important properties and has been an attractive subject for research in recent years. One of the criteria, which determine concrete durability, is permeability. Transport processes in concrete have been investigated for several decades. However, the correlation between transport coefficients and applied stress has received only little attention. The scope of this study encompassed two major research focuses. The first involved developing a test method capable of measuring the water permeability of concrete under an applied stress. The second involves investigating the permeability of high volume fly ash (HVFA) concrete at early ages. Two sets of tests were carried out. Special emphasis was placed on understanding the influence of stress application on the permeability of concrete at early ages (1-3 days). In the first set, four normal concrete mixes were investigated for effects of stress on early age concrete. In the second set, three high volume fly ash (HVFA) mixes were made to investigate the effects of fly ash on the permeability of fresh concrete. For each mixture, three 100 x 200 mm cylinders and 2 cylindrical hollow core specimens with a 50 mm diameter hollow cylindrical core at the center were cast. The cylindrical specimens were used to determine the compressive strength. The hollow core specimens were placed in specially designed cells such that water would permeate under pressure, and the collected water was drained out to a collection reservoir where its mass was measured by a computer-controlled scale. In the first set, one of the permeability cells was mounted in a testing machine to apply a certain compressive stress on the specimen during the test, but in the second set, permeability of normal concrete were compared with HVFA concrete without stress. Results indicated that the presence of a compressive stress below a certain threshold value decreased the permeability, but when the applied stress exceeded this threshold, a significant increase in the permeability occurred. Addition of fly ash as a supplementary cementing material due to the retardation and slow strength gain in concrete, increases the permeability of fly ash concrete at early ages.

description: Aquaticum Debrecen Thermal and Wellness Hotel is a very successful lodging property not only in Debrecen but also in the Northern Great Plain Region and in the Eastern part of Hungary and in point of fact in Hungary. In the past years Aquaticum Thermal and Wellness Hotel has been the leader in the region by revenue per available rooms (RevPAR). RevPAR indicates the overall performance of properties, accordingly it is the most commonly used statistical indicator in comparison to competitors in Hotel industry. In the past years, demand for Hotel rooms has changed. This changing has several signs. For instance the occupancy rate, the rate of domestic and foreign guests, the nationality of foreign guests, the time between booking and travelling, and many other demand patterns have changed. During the last year, the changing has been accelerated by the global economic crisis. Guests are waiting with their bookings hoping for better rates and last minute offers. The forecast of demand became much harder than ever before. These forecasts are basic ingredients of the revenue management systems, which systems are in use or will be in use by Hungarian Hotels. These systems are necessary to keep RevPAR at a higher level and to help Hotels to achieve better performance.

Black hole evaporation based upon a q-deformation description
Creators: name: Zhang, Xin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A toy model based upon the $q$-deformation description for studying the radiation spectrum of black hole is proposed. The starting point is to make an attempt to consider the spacetime noncommutativity in the vicinity of black hole horizon. We use a trick that all the spacetime noncommutative effects are ascribed to the modification of the behavior of the radiation field of black hole and a kind of q-deformed degrees of freedom are postulated to mimic the radiation particles that live on the noncommutative spacetime, meanwhile the background metric is preserved as usual. We calculate the radiation spectrum of Schwarzschild black hole in this framework. The new distribution deviates from the standard thermal spectrum evidently. The result indicates that some correlation effect will be introduced to the system if the noncommutativity is taken into account. In addition, an infrared cut-off of the spectrum is the prediction of the model.

description: Automatic instance segmentation is a problem that occurs in many biomedical applications. State-of-the-art approaches either perform semantic segmentation or refine object bounding boxes obtained from detection methods. Both suffer from crowded objects to varying degrees, merging adjacent objects or suppressing a valid object. In this work, we assign an embedding vector to each pixel through a deep neural network. The network is trained to output embedding vectors of similar directions for pixels from the same object, while adjacent objects are orthogonal in the embedding space, which effectively avoids the fusion of objects in a crowd. Our method yields state-of-the-art results even with a light-weighted backbone network on a cell segmentation (BBBC006 + DSB2018) and a leaf segmentation data set (CVPPP2017). The code and model weights are public available.

Fighting climate change through "patrimonialization": Study cases of the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica
Creators: name: HENRY, Laura
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The cocoa sector plays a significant role in the economies of Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. This study aimed to analyze ways to improve farmer's incomes and living conditions in a changing climate through a comparison of the cocoa sectors in these two countries. The research was based on fieldwork carried out over a period of 10 years and used an inductive methodology, including interviews, case studies, and landscape observation. The results revealed that both countries are trying to establish themselves in niche markets such as fine cocoa and/or organic cocoa, with a focus on quality as a means of differentiating themselves in a global market. The study also highlighted the importance of recognizing the sector and diversifying through tourism to find new resources. Furthermore, it was found that the way of fighting climate change is also through sector recognition and not only through technical improvements, as fine and flavour cocoa, organic and even more specialized: patrimonilized cocoa.

In this paper we consider the case of tangent (sphere) bundle over the real, complex and quaternionic space form and give a unified proof of the following property: all geodesic curvatures of projected curve are zero starting from k_3,k_6 and k_{10} for the real, complex and quaternionic space formes respectively.

description: Together with its partners, Szolnok College is planning to evaluate a new project for networking on the utilization of local natural resources. This project is based on a research work (using the findings of the surveys completed by the representatives of hosts living in the eastern part of Hungary). The project itself is based on the adaptation of the theory of tourism into practice by presenting existing natural values in the supply portfolio of tourist service providers. A unique natural environment can be found alongside a 120 km-long stretch of River Tisza. These natural values interlink and complete each other with respect to Lake Tisza and River Tisza. Regions and settlements situated further from the specified settlements are also rich in natural values which guests will definitely be pleased to get acquainted with. The six landscape centres (including LHH regions) alongside river Tisza (in the two regions) symbolise the interdependent system of the sample area of the project while a single landscape centre in the Pásztó Minor Region embodies a unique character. A register will be prepared for each landscape centre containing unique natural values that can be involved in the tourist supply and handicraft/economic activities (e.g. basket weaving, floodplain economy) that are or can be built on these natural values. A pictorial English/German-Hungarian professional dictionary summarises the distinctive nature of landscape centres. The education material demonstrating the registers is going to be developed both in conventional and electronic form; its spatial IT appearance on the Internet is considered a special feature. The education material will be supplemented with other information currently missing such as those related to environmentally friendly economy, and the legal context. The methodology allows the adaptation of the method in other regions, even in the whole country. The new qualifying and benchmarking system and the trademark managed by a profession-specific cluster that strengthens network co-operation and controls the development guarantee the achievement of high quality tourism.

description: Tourism is travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes. Tourism has become one of the major players in international commerce, and represents at the same time one of the main income sources for many developing countries. This growth goes hand in hand with an increasing diversification and competition among destinations (Unwto, 2010).Working and serving in this pumping industry means to understand and react to the needs of all these people moving around this “small” planet! Success is defined by those who understand these needs and fulfill them to the satisfaction. Unfortunately, our industry is rather slow and we can be characterized as reactive instead of innovative. We adapt too slow compared to other industries that define the needs of their costumers before the costumers actually calls for it!

description: A type of exponential correction to General Relativity gives viable modified gravity model of dark energy. The model behaves as $R-2Λ$ at large curvature where an effective cosmological constant appears, but it becomes zero in flat space time. The cosmic evolution of the main density parameters is consistent with current observations. The thin shell conditions for the Solar system were analyzed. Apart from satisfying cosmological and local gravity restrictions, the model may also show measurable differences with $Λ$CDM at recent times. The current value of the deviation parameter $m$ for scales relevant to the matter power spectrum can be larger than $10^{-6}$. The growth index of matter density perturbations is clearly different from that of the $Λ$CDM. The theoretical predictions of the model for the weighted growth rate were analyzed in the light of the $fσ_8$-tension.

description: A method is presented to search for a hypertorus symmetry axis by the alignment of distant objects. This offers greater sensitivity than previously proposed object-based methods that rely on accurate true distances. When applied to the catalog of objects with z > 1, we find no evidence for a compact dimension. We deduce a lower limit to the compact dimension size D > 0.9 of the distance to the cosmic horizon. This is consistent with independent constraints from the recent analysis of the WMAP microwave background data.

description: A four-dimensional plasma model able to describe the scrape-off layer region of tokamak devices at arbitrary collisionality is derived in the drift-reduced limit. The basis of the model is provided by a drift-kinetic equation that retains the full non-linear Coulomb collision operator and describes arbitrarily far from equilibrium distribution functions. By expanding the dependence of distribution function over the perpendicular velocity in a Laguerre polynomial basis and integrating over the perpendicular velocity, a set of four-dimensional moment equations for the expansion coefficients of the distribution function is obtained. The Coulomb collision operator, as well as Poisson's equation, are evaluated explicitly in terms of perpendicular velocity moments of the distribution function.

Saturation of azimuthal anisotropy in Au + Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 62 - 200 GeV

description: New measurements are presented for charged hadron azimuthal correlations at mid-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 62.4 and 200 GeV. They are compared to earlier measurements obtained at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV and in Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 17.2 GeV. Sizeable anisotropies are observed with centrality and transverse momentum (p_T) dependence characteristic of elliptic flow (v_2). For a broad range of centralities, the observed magnitudes and trends of the differential anisotropy, v_2(p_T), change very little over the collision energy range sqrt(s_NN) = 62-200 GeV, indicating saturation of the excitation function for v_2 at these energies. Such a saturation may be indicative of the dominance of a very soft equation of state for sqrt(s_NN) = 62-200 GeV.

Assume-se por hipótese que a intensificação do processo de modernização, favoreceu a concentração fundiária e a redução do número de pessoas ocupadas nos estabelecimentos agropecuários, prejudicando o desenvolvimento sócio-econômico dos pequenos municípios. A partir das análises realizadas foi possível confirmar os principais pressupostos assumidos. Constatou-se o agravamento da concentração fundiária a partir do aumento do tamanho médio dos estabelecimentos agropecuários e que os seus efeitos foram mais acentuados nos pequenos municípios.---------------------------------------------------This article aims to ascertain from the Census agricultural, 2006, If in recent years occurred intensification of structural changes paranaense agribusiness, ongoing since middle of the decade of 1970.

From the analyses it was possible to confirm the key assumptions made. It was the worsening concentration of land from the increase in the average size of farm establishments and that its effects were more pronounced in small municipalities.

description: Classical Novae (CNe) are the brightest manifestation of mass transfer onto a white dwarf in a cataclysmic variable (CV). As such, they are probes of the mass transfer rate, Mdot, and WD mass, Mwd, in these interacting binaries. Our calculations of the dependence of the CN ignition mass, Mign, on Mdot and Mwd yields the recurrence times of these explosions. We show that the observed CNe orbital period distribution is consistent with the interrupted magnetic braking evolutionary scenario, where at orbital periods Porb > 3 hr mass transfer is driven by angular momentum loss via a wind from the companion star and at Porb < 3 hr by gravitational radiation. About 50% of CNe occur in binaries accreting at Mdot ~= 10^{-9} Msun/yr with Porb = 3-4 hr, with the remaining 50% split evenly between Porb longer (higher Mdot) and shorter (lower Mdot) than this. This resolution of the relative contribution to the CN rate from different CVs tells us that 3(9)x10^5 CVs with WD mass 1.0(0.6)Msun are needed to produce one CN per year. Using the K-band specific CN rate measured in external galaxies, we find a CV birthrate of 2(4)x10^{-4}/yr per 10^{10}Lsun,K, very similar to the luminosity specific Type Ia supernova rate in elliptical galaxies. Likewise, we predict that there should be 60-180 CVs for every 10^6Lsun,K in an old stellar population, similar to the number of X-ray identified CVs in the globular cluster 47 Tuc, showing no overabundance relative to the field. Using a two-component steady state model of CV evolution we show that the fraction of CVs which are magnetic (22%) implies a birthrate of 8% relative to non-magnetic CVs, similar to the fraction of strongly magnetic field WDs.

description: Approximately 15%–30% of patients with lung cancer harbor mutations in the EGFR gene, but little is known about the characteristics, activation, and sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitors for many of the identified EGFR mutations. Using binding free energy calculations and microsecond-timescale molecular dynamic simulations on the EGFR-L747P mutation, we show that this mutation considerably stabilizes the active conformation via salt-bridge formation between K745 and E762.

description: New corrections to General Relativity are considered in the context of modified $f(R)$ gravity, that satisfy cosmological and local gravity constraints. The proposed models behave asymptotically as $R-2Λ$ at large curvature and show the vanishing of the cosmological constant at the flat spacetime limit. The chameleon mechanism and thin shell restrictions for local systems were analyzed, and bounds on the models were found. The steepness of the deviation parameter $m$ at late times leads to measurable signal of scalar-tensor regime in matter perturbations, that allows to detect departures form the $Λ$CDM model. The theoretical results for the evolution of the weighted growth rate $fσ_8(z)$, from the proposed models, were analyzed.

Opportunistic infection as a cause of transient viremia in chronically infected HIV patients under treatment with HAART

description: When highly active antiretroviral therapy is administered for long periods of time to HIV-1 infected patients, most patients achieve viral loads that are ``undetectable'' by standard assay (i.e., HIV-1 RNA $ < 50$ copies/ml). Yet despite exhibiting sustained viral loads below the level of detection, a number of these patients experience unexplained episodes of transient viremia or viral "blips". We propose here that transient activation of the immune system by opportunistic infection may explain these episodes of viremia. Indeed, immune activation by opportunistic infection may spur HIV replication, replenish viral reservoirs and contribute to accelerated disease progression. In order to investigate the effects of concurrent infection on chronically infected HIV patients under treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), we extend a simple dynamic model of the effects of vaccination on HIV infection [Jones and Perelson, JAIDS 31:369-377, 2002] to include growing pathogens. We then propose a more realistic model for immune cell expansion in the presence of pathogen, and include this in a set of competing models that allow low baseline viral loads in the presence of drug treatment. Programmed expansion of immune cells upon exposure to antigen is a feature not previously included in HIV models, and one that is especially important to consider when simulating an immune response to opportunistic infection. Using these models we show that viral blips with realistic duration and amplitude can be generated by concurrent infections in HAART treated patients.

A framework for evaluating the benefits of intelligent transportaton
Creators: name: Khoshons, Mohammad
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The incorporation of intelligent transportation systems into commercial vehicle operations (ITS/CVO) comprise many technologies that are designed to improve operational aspects of commercial vehicles and goods movement by streamlining the collection and exchange of vehicle/driver/carrier information (e.g., safety, registration, licensing, tax payment) via emerging technologies and information systems. Various time and cost savings in addition to enhanced safety and security of freight transportation system are just examples of the benefits from deploying these technologies; however, there is always considerable uncertainty about what the impacts of deployment will be and what can be achieved with new applications. The benefits and impacts of the ITS/CVO deployment can be demonstrated by evaluation. However, a review of the literature on ITS/CVO evaluation studies suggests that there have been inconsistencies among evaluators in all stages of evaluation processes from initial stages to reporting the benefits. For instance, lack of a consistent terminology among transportation professionals was found to be one of the issues in evaluation processes making the interpretation of the results difficult and sometimes misleading. Some of the other issues in evaluation studies include problems with availability and transferability of data, and uncertainties about new technologies and associated benefits for both public and private sectors. This thesis explores these issues, while attempting to address them by developing a framework for evaluating the benefits of ITS/CVO projects. The methodology for developing the framework involves the following major steps: 1. Review of available literature to document current evaluation practices and reported benefits to date; 2. Analyses of all ITS/CVO market packages under Canadian ITS Architecture to identify their potential benefits; 3. Identification of issues relating to deficiencies in existing ITS/CVO evaluation practices; 4. Development of an ITS/CVO evaluation framework that addresses the key issues identified; and 5. Undertaking of a case study to demonstrate the practicality of the developed framework. It is expected that the evaluation framework will assist evaluators to investigate the impacts of the proposed ITS/CVO deployment and to better quantify the benefits. The results of the evaluation should help decision makers to make future investment decisions on whether the deployment should be extended or dismantled.

description: Nesses últimos anos, o Brasil tornou-se o maior fornecedor de carne bovina para o mundo. A modernização do parque industrial de abate e o custo baixo da produção fazem com que o país se consolide como o “Frigorífico do Mundo”.Ao mesmo tempo, o eixo da produção pecuária no Brasil vem sofrendo alterações nos últimos anos. Enquanto, em São Paulo o rebanho decresceu, em Mato Grosso do Sul e Mato Grosso aumentou de 2003 para 2005. Uma das causas para o deslocamento da produção é a diminuição da competitividade da pecuária em relação a outras culturas. Os custos da pecuária aumentam mais que a receita, e, os índices produtivos da fazenda não melhoram o suficiente. De acordo com os resultados desta pesquisa, em São Paulo, as empresas pecuárias não obtêm a margem efetiva superior à proporcionada pela cana-de-açúcar. Quanto ao Mato Grosso do Sul, os casos de febre aftosa prejudicaram profundamente os pecuaristas desse estado. Dos painéis analisados, apenas as fazendas típicas de Barra do Garças e de Pontes e Lacerda, no Mato Grosso, se apresentaram competitivas, no curto prazo.--------------------------------------------------Since 2004, Brazil is the main beef exporter in the world, due to the combination of highly developed slaughterhouses system and low cost of production. At the same time, the main area of beef production in Brazil has changed. From 2003 to 2005, the number of steer decreased in the state of Sao Paulo and enlarged in the states of Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso. One of the reasons for this production reallocation is the lower cattle competitiveness in Sao Paulo state compared to other cultures. According to results of this paper, the sugar cane is more profitable than the cattle farming in that state. In the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, focus of FMD (Foot and Mouth Disease) have prejudiced farmers. Among the regions consulted in three states (SP, MS, and MT), only two, located at the Mato Grosso state (regions of Barra do Garças and Pontes e Lacerda) have presented competitiveness in short term.
