Oil-shales

description: In spite of the fact that the commercial production of hydrocarbon products from oil-shale has been carried on for more than sixty years, practically no work has been done in an effort to determine the fundamental chemical dynamic principles involved in the transformation of the original organic matter in the shale into the final product, oil.  It is true that considerable research has been done to establish relationships between the variable conditions of retorting such as temperature, rate, site of particles, removal of vapors, etc., and the quality and quantity of the resulting products. This work has however been of essentially an empirical nature and has failed to throw much light upon the primary changes which take place in the oil forming constituents previous to distillation. The fact that at the present time there are approximately one hundred patented retorts in this country alone, shows that the conceptions of the nature of the changes involved in the various steps of the thermal decomposition of oil-shale are very indefinite and quite numerous.

description: Climate change impacts on agricultural production will shape the challenges of reaching food security and reducing poverty across households in the future. Existing literature lacks analysis of these impacts on different household groups under consideration of changing socio-economic developments. Here, we analyze how crop yield shifts induced by climate change will affect different household types in three low and low middle-income countries, namely Vietnam, Ethiopia and Bolivia. The long-run analysis is based on a recursive-dynamic Computable General Equilibrium model. We first construct a baseline scenario projecting global socio-economic developments up to 2050. From there, we implement business-as-usual climate change shocks on crop yields. In the baseline, all households benefit from welfare increases over time. Adding climate change induced yield changes reveals impacts different in size and direction depending on the level of the households’ income and on the share of income generated in agriculture. We find that the composition of the factor income is of large importance for the vulnerability of households to climate change, as, the loss for non-agricultural households is highest in absolute terms. The complementary comparative static analysis shows smaller absolute and relative effects for most households as the differentiated factor income growth over time is not considered, which makes household types more or less vulnerable. A sensitivity analysis varying the severity of climate change impacts on yields confirms that more negative yield shifts exacerbate the situation of the most vulnerable households. Furthermore, it underlines that yield shocks on staple crops are of major importance for the welfare effect. Our findings reveal the need for differentiated interventions to mitigate consequences especially for the most vulnerable households.

Oil-shale, Colorado

description: There has been a considerable amount of investigation into the kinetics and mechanisms of oil shale decomposition and into the effects of various experimental parameters on the nature of the product oils. There is a need, however, for further kinetic study of Colorado oil shales. Also the methods used by most of the past investigators place considerable doubt on the validity of their kinetic interpretations. Studies of the in situ method of retorting oil shale have been carried out for many years but a method suggested by Mr. J. L. Dougan,  the use of heated natural gas in an in situ decomposition is untested. The purpose of the study reported in this thesis was two-fold. First an attempt was made to learn more about the basic nature of the pyrolysis of oil shale kerogen. There were indications that the kinetic and mechanistic treatments given to the decomposition of oil shale by early investigators did not fit the actual situation. A re-examination of the kinetics of kerogen decomposition by monitoring the gaseous products as a function of time was attempted. Also it was hoped that a model could be proposed which would better explain the data collected by earlier investigators. Secondly, the intent was to learn more about the parameters involved in the in situ removal of kerogen from oil shale using natural gas as the heating medium.

description: Subjective wellbeing (SWB) represents an individual's perception of wellness that is supported by homeostatic mechanisms. These mechanisms are proposed to be maintained by low negative affect and high positive affect, although less is known about these mechanisms and SWB in autism. The current cross-sectional study aimed to compare patterns of positive affect, negative affect (Positive Affect and Negative Affect Scale), and SWB (Personal Wellbeing Index-School Children) between autistic (n = 53) and non-autistic (n = 49) individuals aged 10–22 years (Mage = 13.97, SD = 3.13). Between-group t-tests revealed that compared with same-age peers, autistic participants scored lower SWB overall (p < 0.001). In both groups average SWB scores fell into the higher range, however, autistic participants were three-times more likely to fall below this range when compared to non-autistic participants. Negative affect had a higher intercept in the autistic sample, but no difference in slopes were observed. A hierarchical multiple regression revealed that diagnosis, positive affect, and negative affect significantly predicted SWB in our sample. Between-group t-tests found no significant difference in positive affect or negative affect across age between the autistic and non-autistic samples. In autistic participants, positive affect increased across age as SWB decreased, whilst negative affect remained stable, a pattern inconsistent with homeostatic SWB. The current study is overall consistent with the homeostatic explanation for SWB within autism; however, we identified potential differences between autistic and non-autistic participants in the contribution of positive affect and negative affect to homeostatic protect mood across development.

description: A phytochemical investigation of the liana of Artabotrys thomsonii led to the isolation of a new oxoberberine alkaloid, 2,10-dihydroxy-3,9-dimethoxy-8-oxo-protoberberine (7), along with six known compounds. Their chemical structures were elucidated by 1 D and 2 D NMR spectroscopic methods and HRESI-MSn data analysis. Compounds 4 and 7 were selected for further in vitro investigations. In accordance with expectations from their chemical structures, compounds 7 and 4 showed a clear antioxidant activity in a cell-free assay, with compound 7 being 7-fold more active than 4. Cytotoxicity, cytostatic and genotoxic effects only occurred at high micromolar concentrations of 50 µM or more. Compound 7 was slightly less effective than compound 4. A low micromolar concentration of 10 µM did not cause any damaging cellular effects but showed potential for a protection against the micronucleus-inducing effect of reactive oxygen species hydrogen peroxide, although not to a significant extent.

description: This was a cross-sectional descriptive investigation designed to describe the symptoms reported by women in the perimenopausal transition.  Seventy-eight women completed a 2-part questionnaire concerning their experiences with menopause.  The first part contained an open-ended question asking the women to list symptoms that they attributed to menopause.  The second portion contained a checklist of menopausal symptoms adapted from the Blatt  menopausal Index and was administered after the women had returned the open-ended section.  Severity of symptoms was assessed on both portions of the questionnaire.  Analysis of the open-ended questionnaires revealed 45 different symptoms.  The  most frequently reported systems on the open-ended questionnaire were found on the checklist portion, as well.  A significantly larger number of symptoms were retorted on the checklist and women who used hormones or vasoactive drugs rated their symptoms as more serve.  Demographic data and lifestyle characteristics were analyzed; however, it was found that lifestyle traits did not affect the women's perceptions of menopausal experiences.

description: This study sought to determine factors that are correlated with measures of functional adaptation following a residential treatment program for the adolescent substance abuse.  The aim of the study was to determine if there were distinct variables which could have predictive value for success in treatment.  Subjects consisted of a convenience sample of 31 post treatment adolescents who were hospitalized between June 1985 and January 1986.  A variety of treatment modalities were utilized in the agency and 1 year of aftercare services was offered to clients and their families. A follow-up questionnaire was administered to monitor post treatment recovery and was utilized to assess functional adaptation in the sample.  Chi-square and t tests were utilized to analyze the data and although statistical significance could not be established, several interesting trends emerged.  The data suggested that the phenomenon of adolescent substance abuse is complex and that singular theories are inadequate to explain its existence.

description: I. GENERAL STATEMENT CONCERNING INVESTIGATIONS•  1 • The Cooperative Agreement:**  At the last session of the Utah State Legislature  a bill was passed appropriating $10,000.00 to the University of Utah for Coal Research. The bill, however, carried the reservation that the State money would be available when an equal amount was made available from some other source to match this appropriation.  The Utah Coal Producers Association agreed to match  this money, at least in part, in order to start investigations which would develop better coal burning methods and better equipment, so that coal as a fuel can more successfully meet the competition of other fuels now on the market. A Department of Coal Research was then organized at the University of Utah under the direction of Dr. D. A. Lyon, Director of the Utah Engineering Experiment Station*. Prof. E. H. Beokstrand,  head of the Mechanical Engineering Dept., and Dr. Thomas B. Brighton, head of the Department of Metallurgy, were placed as Senior Investigators, and the writer, Otto Duke, was employed as Research Fellow to conduct the investigations in cooperation with the senior investigators and the Utah Coal Producers Association*

description: Phytochemical investigation of Sophora secundiflora alkaloid fraction led to isolation of one new quinolizidine alkaloid (1) 13-methoxyanagyrine together with six known ones (2–7). The insecticidal activity of 70% methanol extract of leaves of S. secundiflora, S. tomentosa and the isolated alkaloids were assessed against 3rd instar larvae of Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae) using different concentrations and mortality rate was recorded. Sophora tomentosa extract showed highest mortality rate with median lethal concentration LC50 3.11 ppm after 24 h and 0.66 ppm after 48 h and anagyrine (6) exhibited remarkably insecticidal activity with LC50 value of 3.42 ppm after 24 h of exposure. Additionally, cytotoxic activity of alkaloid fraction of S. secundiflora, S. tomentosa and isolated alkaloids was also studied using crystal violet assay against MCF-7 and HEPG-2 cell lines. Anagyrine (6) exhibited IC50 values of 27.3 ± 0.7 and 30.2 ± 0.9 µg/mL against MCF-7 and HEPG-2 cancer cells, respectively.

Geology, Uintah Basin (Utah and Colo.)

description: A native hydrocarbon occurs in the petroliferrous Uintah Basin of eastern Utah that has exerted a perceptible effect on the economy of the State of Utah as well as the western United States. This hydrocarbon which has been known by several names, the most common being gilsonite, occurs in such vast quantities and has so many potential uses that it cannot much longer be overlooked as one of the minor resources of the West. To throw off the stigma of being only "an asphalt to be used as an asphalt" gilsonite must be analyzed as a matrix of resins, as a container of unsaturated molecules as well as a tried and proved asphalt. Those persons delving into the mysteries of this native asphaltite must accustom themselves with its idiosyncracies viz., losing many valuable constituents upon prolonged exposure to the atmosphere. To realize the full potentialities of gilsonite all studies must be made with the thought in mind that this is a unique hydrocarbon with characteristics all its own.

Iron ore concentrate

description: A new ironmaking technology is under development at the University of Utah. This process produces iron directly from fine iron ore concentrate by a gas-solid  suspension reduction, utilizing hydrogen as the main reducing agent for high reactivity and for the elimination of carbon dioxide emissions during ironmaking operation and also pursuing the direct use of concentrate to bypass the problematic pelletization/sintering and cokemaking steps in the steel industry. The technology is aimed at producing iron as a feed to the steelmaking process, eventually replacing the blast furnace. The purpose of this research was to perform the feasibility tests of the proposed process in terms of the material and energy balances and the kinetics of concentrate particle reduction by hydrogen, together with preliminary scale-up tests. The material and energy balance calculations have shown that the process would drastically reduce energy consumption compared with that required by the blast furnace and lower environmental pollution, especially CO2 emission, from the steel industry. The kinetic feasibility tests have also verified that the reduction rate of concentrate particles by hydrogen is sufficiently fast for a suspension reduction process and forms the most important basis  for the new technology. Finally, the preliminary scale-up tests have shown that the scale-up of the proposed process is plausible if a proper method of heat supply is applied.

Local cohomology

Frobenius action

description: Grothendieck's theory of local cohomology has applications to basic questions such as determining the minimal number of polynomial equations needed to define an algebraic set. These modules are typically not finitely generated, and a question of Huneke asks whether they have finitely many associated prime ideals. This was settled in the negative by Singh, who constructed a local cohomology module that has prime-torsion for each prime integer. We extend this work in Chapter 1 by showing that the module in question contains a copy of each finitely generated abelian group. Moreover, the module has a natural fine grading, and we are able to show that each finitely generated abelian group embeds into a single graded component.   In Chapter 2 we study F-injectivity, i.e., the property that the Frobenius action on local cohomology modules is injective. We obtain an effective criterion to determine if a diagonal subalgebra of a bigraded hypersurface is F-injective; such subalgebras provide a rich source  of examples of various F-singularities, and thus form a natural testing ground for various questions and conjectures related to classes of singularities defined via the Frobenius map.  Chapter 3 is an investigation of the tight closure properties of rings of invariants of finite groups acting linearly on polynomial rings over fields of positive characteristic.

Mobile Emulab

description: Network simulation continues to be the dominant method of experimental evaluation in wireless networking. However, much research has established the failure of simulator models to adequately express wireless signal propagation. These shortcomings can lead to incomplete evaluation of wireless protocols and applications. When wireless research includes mobility, real evaluation becomes still more difficult due to the difficulty of  creating and controlling mobile nodes in a real environment. The primary goal of Mobile Emulab, the testbed presented in this thesis, is to encourage  real mobile wireless research in the wireless community and provide a sound, usable testbed platform for experimentation. Mobile Emulab is both software designed to control and monitor a mobile wireless testbed, and a testbed providing access to mobile  wireless resources. The testbed consists of several robots, each with a small computer and small wireless devices called motes, manueverable in an area surrounded by fixed motes. Through a variety of interfaces, remote researchers can control these robots interactively over the Web. Mobile Emulab provides an overhead tracking system that localizes the robots to within 1 cm, providing repeatable positioning and valuable knowledge to researchers studying how signal propagation affects their experiments. Additional software tools that were developed to ease the evaluation process for wireless sensor network researchers can be used by Mobile Emulab experimenters. Finally, the testbed extends Emulab, which provides researchers with well-known experimental interfaces and automation capabilities.  This thesis presents Mobile Emulab's design and implementation, and establishes its usability and utility through several experiments.

Software Design

description: A database is designed and implemented for storing and managing echocardiographic reports in a relationship database environment. The database uses a frame data structure to represent patient findings. A discourse based methodology for developing frames and dictionaries is developed and a hierarchical dictionary for echocardiography is created. A database capture application for automatically creating database records from free text echocardiographic reports is designed and implemented in a modular way that allows integration of all knowledge bases in the database system. An accuracy rate of approximately 90% is achieved. Accuracy is measured as a ratio of the number of good records to the ideal total number of records from the processed reports. The implications of the database design on clinical use are explored. Important issues in knowledge representation and text understanding are discussed throughout.

description: This study aimed to investigate whether cranberry extract could reduce lower urinary tract (LUT) and gastro-intestinal (GI) signs in feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC). Twenty-one client-owned cats were randomly allocated to two groups: a treated group (T, n = 10) receiving daily an oral nutritional supplement containing cranberry extract and a control group (C, n = 11). Owners were trained to recognise daily LUT and GI signs. Physical examination, urinalysis and bladder ultrasonography were performed at day 0 (T0), 15 (T15), 30 (T30), 60 (T60). Both groups showed an improvement for dysuria and periuria from T0 to T30 (p < 0.05), but only in cats of the T group, LUT signs disappeared at T60. A significant improvement in the T group was also observed for GI signs and bladder ultrasonography at T60 (p = 0.03). Urinalysis did not show any significant differences. This preliminary study suggests that cranberry could be effective in reducing LUT and GI signs in FIC.

description: Several direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been approved by the European Medicines Agency since 2008. The aim of the present cost-effectiveness-analysis was to analyze apixaban compared to other DOACs and vitamin K antagonists (warfarin) in Austria. A cost-utility-model was developed to simulate lifetime-costs and quality-adjusted-life-years of DOACs and warfarin, based on a published Markov-Model and 23 randomized trials with 94,656 atrial-fibrillation (AF) patients. Each year, a patient has a probability of suffering a clinically relevant (extracranial) bleed, an intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), an ischemic stroke or a myocardial infarction (MI), remaining healthy, or deceasing. Direct-costs (2018€) were derived from published sources from the payer’s perspective. In the base-case, warfarin had the lowest cost of 12,968 € (95%-CI±593 €) followed by apixaban (15,269 €±661 €), edoxaban (15,534 €±641 €), dabigatran (15,687 €±667 €), and rivaroxaban (17,522 €±764 €). Apixaban had the highest quality-adjusted-life-years estimate at 5.45 (SD, 0.06). In a Monte-Carlo probabilistic sensitivity analysis, apixaban was cost-effective vs. edoxaban, dabigatran, warfarin, and rivaroxaban in 85.6%, 79.0%, 76.4%, and 61.2% of the simulations, respectively. In patients with AF and an increased risk of stroke, prophylaxis with apixaban was highly cost-effective from the perspective of the Austrian health-care system.

Oil-shales of the United States and methods of testing

Subjects: Oil-shales, United States

description: Acquaintanceship with the oil-shales of the United States is only just "being formed". Their possibilities as future producers of a substitute for petroleum will depend obviously on future demands for the products that can be synthetically made from the very complex organic material of the oil-shales. It is necessary that products from shale oil be made which closely resemble petroleum products as regards their commercial usefulness. There may be other uses, however, for shale oil products. The subject of oil-shales is of wide interest and much is published by able contributors on the economic, commercial, and technical problems, yet there can be little doubt that the solution of the chemical problems is only just begun.

description: 1. Attempts have been made to produce anaphylaxis in guinea pigs by the  injections of mixtures of drugs and autologous blood.  These attempts were unsuccessful.  2. Efforts were made to produce degenerative changes in the bone marrow and alterations in the blood by injection of homologous bone marrow in rabbits and guinea pigs.  These efforts were unsuccessful.  3. The influence of  bone marrow antisera upon the blood and bone marrow was observed in rabbits, guinea pigs, and swine.  In rabbits a prompt and profound pancytopenia occurred after the injection of swine and guinea pig antiserum.  With the continuous intravenous administration of bone marrow antiserum in rabbits, only a profound hemolytic anemia was observed, the leukocytes and platelets being normal in the blood.  The bond marrow revealed erythroid hyperplasia.  4. The influence of chloramphenicol and its "diamine" congener upon the rate of growth and leukocyte count of weanling rats were observed.  The development of anorexia, course and discolored hair, abdominal distension and diarrhea appeared to be due to the influence of the drug.  Significant alterations in the leukocytes, did not appear to occur in relation to the administration of the drug.

description: Aerial parts and roots from three Ranunculus species were extracted with 70% ethanol. The phytochemical composition was investigated using GC-MS and multivariate data analysis. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were also assessed. The in vitro inhibitory properties were evaluated as nitrite concentration in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cell line. All the samples induced concentration-dependent inhibitory effects, with R. sceleratus aerial parts extract being the most interesting sample (IC50 = 22.08 ± 1.32 µg/mL), even more active than the reference compound indomethacin. A very good activity was also observed for R. sardous and R. ficaria aerial parts extracts (IC50 = 51.61 ± 3.12 µg/mL and 84.55 ± 3.40 µg/mL). A lesser but noteworthy potential was also demonstrated for the root extracts. The results suggest that Ranunculus hydroalcoholic extracts are able to inhibit nitrite accumulation and may be useful in preventing inflammatory diseases mediated by excessive production of NO.
Relationship between scores on a nurse-psychiatric patient interaction inventory and nurse performance

Psychiatric nursing

description: The study was an attempt to further validate the Nurse-Psychiatric Patient Interaction Inventory (NPPII).  The NPPII is an 18-item, empirically derived inventory designed to measure the extent to which a nurse can select potentially therapeutic verbal responses in nurse-psychiatric patient situations.  In the original development in the inventory, baccalaureate nursing students performed significantly better than diploma or associated degree students on the inventory.  This was interpreted as a very limited validity check..  A further validity check of the NPPI was measured in the present  study by correlating scores on the NPPII with performance rating of a group of registered nurses who were employed on hospital psychiatric units.  The performance ratings were scores on the Nurse Performance Description Scales (NPDS).  During the first phase of the study, the NPPII was given to the nurses.  During the second phase, the immediate supervisors of the subjects completed the NPDS as an evaluation of the nurse's overall nursing performance.  The NPPII and the NPDS were expected to correlate highly on the assumption that the nurse who is effective in nurse-patient relationships with other people in the work situation, and would be judged a "good" nurse by her supervisor.  Product moment correlations were calculated between the NPPII scores and the NPDS total and subscale scores.  There was no tendency for high scorers on the NPPII to receive high NPDS ratings.  When the ten high scorers and the ten low scorers on the NPDS were compared, the mean scores on the NPPII for these two groups were equal.  Several possible explanations were offered for lack of expected correlations between the NPPII and the NPDS scores.  The NPDS may not be an appropriate tool for evaluation of specific psychiatric nursing skills.  Another explanation offered was that the lack of correlation may indicate that a nurse who is a potentially therapeutic force in nurse-patient interactions, as measured by the NPPII, is not necessarily an effective nurse in other important aspects of nursing.  However, further research was recommended to determine the validity of the NPPII.  Another possible reason for the lack of correlation was the rater error, "halo," which could have favored qualities other than those measured by the NPPII.  Contrary to predictions, the associated program graduates had the highest mean score, followed by the baccalaureate and diploma program graduates.  However, sample sizes were too small to make a meaningful comparison of the group means.

description: Ausgehend von der Geste des Zurkunsterklärens erörtert der Aufsatz probehalber eine analoge Deixis in der Literatur und diskutiert ihre Relevanz für die Bewertung computergenerierter Texte. Entgegen der Ansicht, dass Computer oder KI-Systeme allein aufgrund qualitativ hochwertigen Outputs als Autor:innen anerkannt werden könnten, betont er die Notwendigkeit sozialer Anerkennung in einer Urteilsgemeinschaft. Als Alternative zum Turing-Test, der auf dem Paradigma der Täuschung beruht, steht dann der Durkheim-Test, der auf das Paradigma der Kosozialität setzt. Erst, wenn die zurkunsterklärende Geste einer Maschine auch als deiktisches Urteil im starken Sinne aufgefasst wird, kann plausiblerweise von Computerautorschaft die Rede sein.
