Unidade e propagação da motivação segundo John Stuart Mill: uma dimensão esquecida do utilitarismo
Creators: name: Rodrigues, João Da Rocha
Publisher: name: Gaudium Sciendi
Year: 2021

description: Um dos problemas éticos que continua a atormentar os filósofos é o que nos leva a agir com nobreza, generosidade ou compaixão—por oposição a cálculo, mesquinhez ou crueldade. Em estreita relação com esta questão está "o que conta como uma razão para agir?” e o papel da educação no comportamento altruísta que parece excluído pelo princípio da utilidade. O princípio da utilidade, apesar disso, tem ainda grande popularidade na definição de políticas públicas. Os proponentes do utilitarismo procuram explicar de que maneira o princípio da utilidade motiva a conduta humana. John Stuart Mill, na sua obra seminal, defende que os indivíduos são incentivados a agir moralmente através de "sanções", que podem ser externas ou internas. As sanções externas apresentadas por Mill incluem a simpatia e o medo de desagradar ao próximo. Este ensaio defende que todas nos podem levar a agir contrariamente ao princípio da utilidade que Mill defende—sendo, portanto, motivações contingentes. A "sanção" da consciência ou sanção interna é, pelo contrário, um sentimento subjectivo de dever que, mesmo no quadro utilitário de Mill, se inculca no sujeito através da educação. A educação moral consiste, para este filósofo, essencialmente na formação progressiva de uma associação entre a dor (latu sensu) e o incumprimento do dever. Esta associação não pode ser dissolvida pela análise crítica, pois enraíza-se num desejo de unidade fundamental presente na natureza humana. Mill considera que este desejo de unidade é característico da "idade moderna" em que ele próprio vive e que tal desejo se propaga por "contágio". Neste texto procura-se mostrar que a explicação que Mill apresenta desse processo de propagação não é satisfatória e que se pode mesmo afirmar que o autor presume uma psicologia humana demasiado optimista. Mesmo assim, a concepção de um "desejo contagioso", que fundamenta a motivação moral, é uma proposta original e potencialmente fecunda, representando uma grande inovação por parte de Mill—uma inovação que tem sido geralmente esquecida na literatura académica sobre o problema. Identificamos algumas das consequências deste olvido na conclusão.

 Remarks: Menacanthus stramineus was introduced to Chile and other countries by human agency with chickens and/or turkeys. Menacanthus stramineus is haematophagous (Wilson 1933); consequently, it can be a serious pest of captive birds by causing anaemia and transmitting microorganisms that cause disease (Derylo 1970; 1977).

description: We present a Next-to-Leading order perturbative QCD analysis of world data on the spin dependent structure functions $g_1^p, g_1^n$, and $g_1^d$, including the new experimental information on the $Q^2$ dependence of $g_1^n$. Careful attention is paid to the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. The data constrain the first moments of the polarized valence quark distributions, but only qualitatively constrain the polarized sea quark and gluon distributions. The NLO results are used to determine the $Q^2$ dependence of the ratio $g_1/F_1$ and evolve the experimental data to a constant $Q^2 = 5 GeV^2$. We determine the first moments of the polarized structure functions of the proton and neutron and find agreement with the Bjorken sum rule.

description: We extend the adiabatic regularization method by introducing an arbitrary mass scale $μ$ in the construction of the subtraction terms. This allows us to obtain, in a very robust way, the running of the coupling constants by demanding $μ$-invariance of the effective semiclassical (Maxwell-Einstein) equations. In particular, we get the running of the electric charge of perturbative quantum electrodynamics. Furthermore, the method brings about a renormalization of the cosmological constant and the Newtonian gravitational constant. The running obtained for these dimensionful coupling constants has new relevant (non-logarithmic) contributions, not predicted by dimensional regularization.

description: The variable-camber wing technology is a useful way to improve the aerodynamic performance of airplane. In order to fully understand and utilize this technology, more researches need to be done. This paper studies the impact of trailing-edge variable-camber wing on the aerodynamic drag and the drag components by numerical simulation. A far-field drag decomposition method based on CFD is used for study. The numerical calculations have revealed the inner relation between trailing edge camber of wing and aerodynamic drag. The research results are helpful to the design of variable-camber wing.

Distanciando-se da literatura infantil da época, dirigida a rapazes e profundamente imperialista, Burnett opta por empregar um discurso anti-imperialista. A Índia é constantemente criticada ao longo do romance pela autora, que utiliza temáticas, tais como o clima, a paisagem e a saúde das personagens, a fim de sublinhar o impacto negativo causado pelo império, tanto nas crianças como nas respectivas famílias. Iremos analisar estas temáticas, destacando as soluções apresentadas pela autora no tocante aos problemas aludidos pela mesma.

description: Employing the high spatio-temporal Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph 1330 Å observations, we investigated the jet-like features that occurred during the X8.2 class flare in NOAA active region (AR) 12673 on 2017 September 10. These jet-like features were rooted in the flare ribbons. We examined 15 features, and the mean values of the lifetimes, projected widths, lengths and velocities of these features were 87 s, 890 km, 2.7 Mm and 70 km s$^{-1}$, respectively. We also observed many jet-like features which happened during the X1.0 class flare on 2014 October 25. We studied the spectra at the base of a jet-like feature during its development. The Fe XXI 1354.08 Å line in the corona displays blueshift, while the Si IV 1402.77 Å line in the transition region exhibits redshift, which indicates the chromospheric evaporation. This is the first time that the jet-like features are reported to be rooted in the flare ribbons, and we suggest that these jet-like features were driven by the mechanism of chromospheric evaporation.

description: Regge theory provides a very simple and economical description of data for (i) the proton structure function with x<0.07 and all available Q^2 values, (ii) the charm structure function, and (iii) gamma p --> J/psi p. The data are all in agreement with the assumption that there is a second pomeron, with intercept about 1.4 . They suggest also that the contribution from the soft pomeron is higher twist. This means that there is an urgent need to make perturbative evolution compatible with Regge theory at small and not-so-small x, and to reassess the magnitude of higher-twist contributions at quite small x.

It explores how the virus interacts with shrimp cells by examining changes in protein production after infection. The study looks at how the virus hijacks the shrimp's cellular machinery to produce viral proteins instead of the prawn's own proteins. Additionally, this thesis reviews the effectiveness of various treatments tested so far. Finally, by combining current research and past studies, the author has developed a new dual-action treatment. This thesis also evaluates the effectiveness of this new treatment in preventing the virus from spreading.

description: Recently, there have been many works on the deep learning of statistical ensembles to determine the critical temperature of a possible phase transition. We analyze the detailed structure of an optimized deep learning machine and prove the basic equalities among the optimized machine parameters and the physical quantities of the statistical system. According to these equalities, we conclude that the bias parameters of the final full connection layer record the free energy of the statistical system as a function of temperature. We confirm these equalities in one- and two-dimensional Ising spin models and actually demonstrate that the deep learning machine reveals the critical temperature of the phase transition through the second difference of bias parameters, which is equivalent to the specific heat. Our results disprove the previous works claiming that the weight parameters of the full connection might play a role of the order parameter such as the spin expectation.

Nutritional programming
Lipid metabolism
Lipid traffic analysis

description: BACKGROUND: The paternal diet affects lipid metabolism in offspring for at least two generations through nutritional programming. However, we do not know how this is propagated to the offspring. OBJECTIVES: We tested the hypothesis that the changes in lipid metabolism that are driven by paternal diet are propagated through spermatozoa and not seminal plasma. METHODS: We applied an updated, purpose-built computational network analysis tool to characterise control of lipid metabolism systemically (Lipid Traffic Analysis v2.3) on a known mouse model of paternal nutritional programming. RESULTS: The analysis showed that the two possible routes for programming effects, the sperm (genes) and seminal plasma (influence on the uterine environment), both have a distinct effect on the offspring's lipid metabolism. Further, the programming effects in offspring suggest that changes in lipid distribution are more important than alterations in lipid biosynthesis. CONCLUSIONS: These results show how the uterine environment and genes both affect lipid metabolism in offspring, enhancing our understanding of the link between parental diet and metabolism in offspring.

description: The problem of the Fermi--edge singularity in a one--dimensional Tomonaga--Luttinger liquid is reconsidered. The backward scattering of the conduction band electrons on the impurity--like hole in the valence band is analyzed by mapping the problem onto a Coulomb gas theory. For the case when the electron--electron interaction is repulsive the obtained exponent of the one--dimensional Fermi--edge singularity appears to be different from the exponent found in the previous studies. It is shown that the infrared physics of the Fermi--edge singularity in the presence of backward scattering and electron--electron repulsion resembles the physics of the Kondo problem.

description: This text explores the presence of the Chinese community in Portugal, considering its specific characteristics and its evolution. Moreover, the individuality of this community motivated our interest in pursuing a research project, centred on the business community group established in this country. This study led to a transnational vision of the networks that interact in this field. The diversity of the migratory flows involved and the economic dimension prevailing throughout the entire Chinese diaspora compelled the analysis of their relationship in terms of European networks and the institutional link maintained with China itself.

description: In this paper, we develop homology groups for digital images based on cubical singular homology theory for topological spaces. Using this homology, we present digital Hurewicz theorem for the fundamental group of digital images. We also show that the homology functors developed in this paper satisfy properties that resemble the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms of homology theory, in particular, the homotopy and the excision axioms. We finally define axioms of digital homology theory.
Constraints on Earth-mass primordial black holes from OGLE 5-year microlensing events

description: We constrain the abundance of primordial black holes (PBH) using 2622 microlensing events obtained from 5-years observations of stars in the Galactic bulge by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE). The majority of microlensing events display a single or at least continuous population that has a peak around the light curve timescale $t_{\rm E}\simeq 20~{\rm days}$ and a wide distribution over the range $t_{\rm E}\simeq [1, 300]~{\rm days}$, while the data also indicates a second population of 6 ultrashort-timescale events in $t_{\rm E}\simeq [0.1,0.3]~{\rm days}$, which are advocated to be due to free-floating planets. We confirm that the main population of OGLE events can be well modeled by microlensing due to brown dwarfs, main sequence stars and stellar remnants (white dwarfs and neutron stars) in the standard Galactic bulge and disk models for their spatial and velocity distributions. Using the dark matter (DM) model for the Milky Way (MW) halo relative to the Galactic bulge/disk models, we obtain the tightest upper bound on the PBH abundance in the mass range $M_{\rm PBH}\simeq[10^{-6},10^{-3}]M_\odot$ (Earth-Jupiter mass range), if we employ null hypothesis that the OGLE data does not contain any PBH microlensing event. More interestingly, we also show that Earth-mass PBHs can well reproduce the 6 ultrashort-timescale events, without the need of free-floating planets, if the mass fraction of PBH to DM is at a per cent level, which is consistent with other constraints such as the microlensing search for Andromeda galaxy (M31) and the longer timescale OGLE events. Our result gives a hint of PBH existence, and can be confirmed or falsified by microlensing search for stars in M31, because M31 is towards the MW halo direction and should therefore contain a much less number of free-floating planets, even if exist, than the direction to the MW center.

description: Site-specific incorporation of distinct non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins via genetic code expansion requires mutually orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS)/tRNA pairs. Pyrrolysyl–tRNA synthetase (PylRS)/tRNAPyl pairs are ideal for genetic code expansion and have been extensively engineered for developing mutually orthogonal pairs. Here, we identify two novel PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs from extremely halophilic methyl-reducing euryarchaeal HMET1. In order to demonstrate that HMET1 PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs are functional and orthogonal in H. volcanii, we transformed plasmids encoding HMET1 PylRS/tRNAPyl pair and reporter protein SAMP1(G24amb), and cultured the cells in the presence and absence of 1 mM ncAA. Amber suppression ability of HMET1 PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs were assayed by monitoring the production of the full-length SAMP1(G24amb) and the SAMP1(G24amb)-MoaE conjugate via anti-Flag immunoblotting. LC-MS/MS confirmed that BocK (ncAA) was incorporated into the reporter protein at site-directed position. Thus, these two distinct PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs are functional in Haloferax volcanii, a model halophilic archaeon. Furthermore, by swapping these two PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs in the expression vector followed by anti-Flag immunoblotting, we found these two PylRS/tRNAPyl pairs are mutually orthogonal. Finally, we demonstrate HMET1 PylRS/tRNAPyl-derived pairs can decode two stop codons and incorporate distinct ncAAs. LC-MS/MS analysis of the purified reporter protein confirmed that BocK and 3-I-phe were incorporated at the TAA and TAG-directed positions respectively.

description: The size of horizontal tail is determined to meet stability and control requirements over the specified center-of-gravity range for a conventional jet trainer aircraft. Aircraft had to have inherent longitudinal stability throughout the flight envelope until the early 1970s. However, the concept of relaxed static stability (RSS) arose with the advent of active control technology (ACT). ACT allows aircraft to fly operationally with negative inherent airframe stability, that has the advantages of smaller tail volume, hence less weight. In this paper, tail sizing diagrams are created to find the minimum required horizontal tail size over a required CG range for both conventional aircraft and aircraft with RSS.

description: As data continues to grow in size and volume, there is an equally growing need to provide new technical solutions to support large data transfer within academic library data services. This search for digital solutions became even more urgent with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, as restrictions on contact meant that existing workflows were no longer possible in a remote environment. This presentation summarizes recent work by Scholars Portal, a consortial library technology service, to develop infrastructure to support the transfer of big data in delivering library data services to students and researchers. It will focus on the use of Globus, a large data transfer tool, and workflows for integration into two different data repository systems - Dataverse & Scholars GeoPortal. We will discuss current workflows for the transfer of large files, and some of the use cases in academic libraries both now and into the future.

description: Tradução de leaflet do projeto AGFORWARD - O sucesso da plantação das árvores nos sistemas agroflorestais não depende apenas da compra de plantas de boa qualidade. A mortalidade após a plantação pode atribuir-se principalmente a uma gestão anterior inadequada. A dessecação das raízes, ou a sua exposição a radiação excessiva, ao vento, ou à geada pode dificultar o desenvolvimento posterior das árvores jovens. As plantas devem ser manuseadas cuidadosamente desde que saem do viveiro até à plantação (incluindo o transporte) para evitar danos e a deterioração da sua qualidade. A plantação tem de ser feita no período de repouso vegetativo, ou seja, em geral, desde o outono até ao fim do inverno. Os agricultores devem evitar plantar nos períodos de risco de geada, quando o solo está encharcado ou demasiado seco, e durante períodos ventosos

Start-up flow in shallow deformable microchannels

description: Microfluidic systems are usually fabricated with soft materials that deform due to the fluid stresses. Recent experimental and theoretical studies on the steady flow in shallow deformable microchannels have shown that the flow rate is a nonlinear function of the pressure drop due to the deformation of the upper soft wall. Here, we extend the steady theory of Christov et al. (2018) by considering the start-up flow from rest, both in pressure-controlled and in flow-rate-controlled configurations. The characteristic scales and relevant parameters governing the transient flow are first identified, followed by the development of an unsteady lubrication theory assuming that the inertia of the fluid is negligible, and that the upper wall can be modeled as an elastic plate under pure bending satisfying the Kirchhoff-Love equation. The model is governed by two non-geometrical dimensionless numbers: a compliance parameter $β$, which compares the characteristic displacement of the upper wall with the undeformed channel height, and a parameter $γ$ that compares the inertia of the solid with its flexural rigidity. In the limit of negligible solid inertia, $γ\to 0$, a quasi-steady model is developed, whereby the fluid pressure satisfies a nonlinear diffusion equation, with $β$ as the only parameter, which admits a self-similar solution under pressure-controlled conditions. This simplified lubrication description is validated with coupled three-dimensional numerical simulations of the Navier equations for the elastic solid and the Navier-Stokes equations for the fluid. The agreement is very good when the hypotheses behind the model are satisfied. Unexpectedly, we find fair agreement even in cases where the solid and liquid inertia cannot be neglected.

STOCHASTIC COLLOCATION FOR THE STATISTICAL ASSESSMENT OF RLC CIRCUIT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY WITH MONTE CARLO METHOD
Creators: name: Dilyorjon Yuldashev Turin Polytechnic University in Tashkent
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The statistical assessment of electrical circuits, such as RLC circuits, is essential for understanding their behavior under uncertain conditions. In this paper, we explore the application of stochastic collocation (SC) as an alternative method for statistical assessment, comparing it with the widely used Monte Carlo method. SC offers an efficient approach for propagating uncertainties through complex mathematical models by approximating the solution at specified collocation points. We present a comparative study between SC and Monte Carlo in evaluating the statistical properties of RLC circuits, including parameters such as voltage, current, and power dissipation. Through numerical experiments, we demonstrate the accuracy and computational efficiency of SC in capturing the probabilistic behavior of RLC circuits, especially in scenarios with high-dimensional uncertainty. Additionally, we provide insights into the advantages and limitations of both methods, shedding light on their suitability for different applications in circuit analysis and design.
Coherent dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in high-finesse optical cavities

description: We study the mutual interaction of a Bose-Einstein condensed gas with a single mode of a high-finesse optical cavity. We show how the cavity transmission reflects condensate properties and calculate the self-consistent intra-cavity light field and condensate evolution. Solving the coupled condensate-cavity equations we find that while falling through the cavity, the condensate is adiabatically transfered into the ground state of the periodic optical potential. This allows time dependent non-destructive measurements on Bose-Einstein condensates with intriguing prospects for subsequent controlled manipulation.

The Politics of Conjugal Love: The Couple and the Modern Nation-state in Alaipayuthey
Creators: name: Bhanusree S. Kumar
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The paper delves into the portrayal of romantic relationships in cinema, particularly focusing on the depiction of heterosexual couples and its implications for modernity and the nation-state. It contrasts Western cinematic traditions, which often prioritize the independent couple as a symbol of modernity, with Indian cinema, where until the nineties, the autonomous couple was not recognized. Drawing on the works of various philosophers and scholars, the paper analyzes the conjugal relationship depicted in the Tamil movie "Alaipayuthey" (2000) directed by Mani Ratnam. Unlike many other films of its time, "Alaipayuthey" presents a modern conjugal relationship where the couple asserts autonomy from parental authority, despite facing challenges. The paper also explores the role of the state in legitimizing and preserving the couple's relationship, highlighting a decisive shift from traditional family dynamics. Through detailed analysis, the paper sheds light on broader societal constructs and their reflection in cinematic narratives.
General mathematical analysis on multiple solutions of interfering resonances combinations

description: When fitting cross sections with several resonances or interfering background and resonances, one usually obtains multiple solutions of parameters with equal fitting quality. In the present work, we find the source of multiple solutions for a combination of several resonances or interfering background and resonances by analyzing the mathematical structure of the Breit-Wigner function. We find that there are $2^n$ fitting solutions with equal quality for $n+1$ resonances, and the multiplicity of the interfering background and resonances depends on zeros of the amplitudes in the complex plane. We provide a simple, general method to infer all other solutions with equal fitting quality from a known solution.
