description: The red palm weevil (RPW) Rhyncophorus ferrugineus, is a serious pest of palms. RPW is native to Asia, but over the last few decades it has spread to the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, where it has caused major economic damage. This pest was accidentally introduced to the Caribbean (Curacao and Aruba) probably around 2008 through trade in ornamental palms. In these localities, the pest has caused considerable damage and death to several palm species, and it now poses a serious threat to the rest of the region. This paper provides a brief summary of the current knowledge of the pest with particular reference to the neotropics.

 Type locality: l’Océan des Grandes Indes.
 Material in MHNG, Lamarck collection: 2 syntypes MHNG INVE 51707 (ex MHNG 1098/9) (figured herein, Fig. 11A – B); 1098/9/1: 120 mm; 1098/9/2: 111.3 mm. One probable syntype MHNG INVE 51706 (ex MHNG 1098/8) (figured herein, Fig. 11C), 128.5 mm. Locality on the label: Océan Indien.
 Remarks: According to Rosalie de Lamarck, her father’s collection contained three specimens. G. Mermod (former curator of molluscs at MHNG) noted that the specimen 1098/9/1 is the one figured in the Tableau, while it is difficult to say which one of these three was figured by Kiener. We have some doubts as to whether 1098/9/1 is the figured specimen since the size does not quite match. On the other hand, specimen 1098/9/2 bears a faded handwritten inscription by Lamarck inside its aperture, and thus is surely one of his original specimens.
 Current taxonomic position: Fusinus tuberculatus (Lamarck, 1822); placed in Fusinus by Melvill (1928): 107. Unnecessarily renamed Fusus maculiferus by Tapparone - Canefri (1875). Locality is east Africa.

description: We present a legged motion planning approach for quadrupedal locomotion over challenging terrain. We decompose the problem into body action planning and footstep planning. We use a lattice representation together with a set of defined body movement primitives for computing a body action plan. The lattice representation allows us to plan versatile movements that ensure feasibility for every possible plan. To this end, we propose a set of rules that define the footstep search regions and footstep sequence given a body action. We use Anytime Repairing A* (ARA*) search that guarantees bounded suboptimal plans. Our main contribution is a planning approach that generates on-line versatile movements. Experimental trials demonstrate the performance of our planning approach in a set of challenging terrain conditions. The terrain information and plans are computed on-line and on-board.

description: We show that every biorthogonal wavelet determines a representation by operators on Hilbert space satisfying simple identities, which captures the established relationship between orthogonal wavelets and Cuntz-algebra representations in that special case. Each of these representations is shown to have tractable finite-dimensional co-invariant doubly-cyclic subspaces. Further, motivated by these representations, we introduce a general Fock-space Hilbert space construction which yields creation operators containing the Cuntz--Toeplitz isometries as a special case.

description: We characterize for the first time the torus properties of an ultra-hard X-ray (14-195 keV) volume-limited (DL<40 Mpc) sample of 24 Seyfert (Sy) galaxies (BCS40 sample). The sample was selected from the Swift/BAT nine month catalog. We use high angular resolution nuclear infrared (IR) photometry and N-band spectroscopy, the CLUMPY torus models and a Bayesian tool to characterize the properties of the nuclear dust. In the case of the Sy1s we estimate the accretion disk contribution to the subarcsecond resolution nuclear IR SEDs (~0.4'') which is, on average, 46+-28, 23+-13 and 11+-5% in the J-, H- and K-bands, respectively. This indicates that the accretion disk templates that assume a steep fall for longer wavelengths than 1 micron might underestimate its contribution to the near-IR emission. Using both optical (broad vs narrow lines) and X-ray (unabsorbed vs absorbed) classifications, we compare the global posterior distribution of the torus model parameters. We confirm that Sy2s have larger values of the torus covering factor (CT~0.95) than Sy1s (CT~0.65) in our volume-limited Seyfert sample. These findings are independent of whether we use an optical or X-ray classification. We find that the torus covering factor remains essentially constant within the errors in our luminosity range and there is no clear dependence with the Eddington ratio. Finally, we find tentative evidence that even an ultra hard X-ray selection is missing a significant fraction of highly absorbed type 2 sources with very high covering factor tori.

description: When a potential for a scalar field has two local minima there arise spherical shell-type solutions of the classical field equations due to gravitational attraction. We establish such solutions numerically in a space which is asymptotically de Sitter. It generically arises when the energy scale characterizing the scalar field potential is much less than the Planck scale. It is shown that the mirror image of the shell appears in the other half of the Penrose diagram. The configuration is smooth everywhere with no physical singularity.

description: We study the interplay of interactions and topology in a pseudo-spin Weyl system, obtained from a minimally modified Hubbard model, using the numerically exact auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method complemented by mean-field theory. We find that the pseudo-spin plays a key role in the pairing mechanism, and its effect is reflected in the structure of the pairing amplitude. An attractive on-site interaction leads to pairing between quasiparticles carrying opposite spin and opposite topological charge, resulting in the formation of real-spin singlet pairs that are a mixture of pseudo-spin singlet and pseudo-spin triplet. Our results provide a detailed characterization of the exotic pairing behavior in this system, and represent an important step towards a more complete understanding of superconductivity in the context of topological band structures, which will help guide searches for topological superconductivity in real materials and ultracold atoms.

description: A study has been conducted for the purpose of developing a design for the TRIUMF main magnet coils which was to result in a minimum capital investment when the costs of the coils and the power supply were added together. Two basic designs were considered, one being the more conventional design employing extruded square hollow conductor, the other making use of rectangular conductor bars. The conventional design was found to be unsuitable for the TRIUMF coils due to lack of space for the large number of water circuits that would be needed in order to prevent excessive temperature rise and destructive shear forces to develop within the coil. In addition, the coils would have to be wound at the site due to their large size, making the fabrication work unduly expensive. The rectangular bar design permits the coils to be divided into segments, thus making it feasible to do the manufacturing work in a coil manufacturer’s plant. Minimum capital investment is achieved if the coils are made in 120-degree segments using extruded aluminum as conductor material. Sixty-degree segments are more expensive than 120-degree segments but offer certain advantages which are not found in the 60-degree segment version. Thus, the magnetic field irregularities produced in the segment junction areas occur in six places, which is preferable to having the field distortion in only three places. The 60-degree segments also provide a desirable flexibility between all magnet sectors permitting individual height adjustment of the magnets. The cost of power supplies with various output characteristics has been estimated. Two preliminary cost estimates were received from two power supply manufacturers. These estimates were based on a power supply with an output current of 16,000 amperes and an output power of 2 megawatts. As a result of the findings, it has been recommended that extruded bar aluminum conductor be employed in the fabrication of the coils and that 60-degree segments be used. The conductors should be insulated from each other and from ground by means of glass-epoxy laminates. It is also proposed that the insulation be reinforced by expoxy potting of the coil segments. The epoxy should be formulated to give maximum radiation resistance, and alumina grains should be used to further enhance this property. Bolted flexible copper connectors have been recommended for use between coil segments. The recommended coil design is shown on various figures and drawings included in the report along with graphs demonstrating power demands, capital investment costs and operating costs for different conductor materials and different number of coil turns.

description: We calculate magnetization in magnetically doped semiconductors assuming a local exchange model of carrier-mediated ferromagnetic mechanism and using a number of complementary theoretical approaches. In general, we find that the results of our mean-field calculations, particularly the dynamical mean field theory results, give excellent qualitative agreement with the experimentally observed magnetization in systems with itinerant charge carriers, such as Ga_{1-x}Mn_xAs with 0.03 < x < 0.07, whereas our percolation-theory-based calculations agree well with the existing data in strongly insulating materials, such as Ge_{1-x}Mn_x. We comment on the issue of non-mean-field like magnetization curves and on the observed incomplete saturation magnetization values in diluted magnetic semiconductors from our theoretical perspective. In agreement with experimental observations, we find the carrier density to be the crucial parameter determining the magnetization behavior. Our calculated dependence of magnetization on external magnetic field is also in excellent agreement with the existing experimental data.

description: Agricultural data systems remain based upon now obsolete concepts. In particular, the "full-time, family farm" is still organizing concepts for much of the farm data system, and for agricultural policies. Yet farming has clearly bifurcated into: a relatively small number of large farms that produce the majority of the food and fiber; and a large number of small part-time farms that depend mainly on off-farm income for household well-being. Both types are family farms, but they are not the family farms of the past. It is broadly recognized that large farms pose complex challenges for data collection and policy. But small farms are also complex. While small farms may not account for much production they are important for land use issues and for maintaining political support for farm policy. As agricultural policy evolves beyond support commodities it is important to have a better understanding of the heterogeneity of agriculture. This will require more attention to how we define farming, farmers and the objectives of policy.

description: We prove that fairly general spaces of tilings of R^d are fiber bundles over the torus T^d, with totally disconnected fiber. This was conjectured (in a weaker form) in [W3], and proved in certain cases. In fact, we show that each such space is homeomorphic to the d-fold suspension of a Z^d subshift (or equivalently, a tiling space whose tiles are marked unit d-cubes). The only restrictions on our tiling spaces are that 1) the tiles are assumed to be polygons (polyhedra if d>2) that meet full-edge to full-edge (or full-face to full-face), 2) only a finite number of tile types are allowed, and 3) each tile type appears in only a finite number of orientations. The proof is constructive, and we illustrate it by constructing a `square' version of the Penrose tiling system.

description: We present a framework for dynamic quadrupedal locomotion over challenging terrain, where the choice of appropriate footholds is crucial for the success of the behaviour. We build a model of the environment on-line and on-board using an efficient occupancy grid representation. We use Any-time-Repairing A* (ARA*) to search over a tree of possible actions, choose a rough body path and select the locally-best footholds accordingly. We run a n-step lookahead optimization of the body trajectory using a dynamic stability metric, the Zero Moment Point (ZMP), that generates natural dynamic whole-body motions. A combination of floating-base inverse dynamics and virtual model control accurately executes the desired motions on an actively compliant system. Experimental trials show that this framework allows us to traverse terrains at nearly 6 times the speed of our previous work, evaluated over the same set of trials.

description: We study the number of lattice points in integer dilates of the rational polytope $P = (x_1,...,x_n) \in \R_{\geq 0}^n : \sum_{k=1}^n x_k a_k \leq 1$, where $a_1,...,a_n$ are positive integers. This polytope is closely related to the linear Diophantine problem of Frobenius: given relatively prime positive integers $a_1,...,a_n$, find the largest value of t (the Frobenius number) such that $m_1 a_1 + ... + m_n a_n = t$ has no solution in positive integers $m_1,...,m_n$. This is equivalent to the problem of finding the largest dilate tP such that the facet $\sum_{k=1}^n x_k a_k = t$ contains no lattice point. We present two methods for computing the Ehrhart quasipolynomials of P which count the integer points in the dilated polytope and its interior. Within the computations a Dedekind-like finite Fourier sum appears. We obtain a reciprocity law for these sums, generalizing a theorem of Gessel. As a corollary of our formulas, we rederive the reciprocity law for Zagier's higher-dimensional Dedekind sums. Finally, we find bounds for the Fourier-Dedekind sums and use them to give new bounds for the Frobenius number.

description: With the commercialization of agriculture, women are increasingly disadvantaged because of persistent gender-disparities in access to productive resources. Farmer collective action that intends to improve smallholder access to markets and technology could potentially accelerate this trend. Here, we use survey data of small-scale banana producers in Kenya to investigate the gender implications of recently established farmer groups. Traditionally, banana has been a women’s crop in Kenya. Our results confirm that the groups contribute to increasing male control over banana. While male control over banana revenues does not affect household food security, it has a negative marginal effect on dietary quality. We demonstrate that the negative gender implications of farmer groups can be reduced or avoided when women are group members themselves. In the poorest income segments, group membership even seems to have a positive effect on female-controlled income share. Some policy implications towards gender mainstreaming of farmer collective action are discussed.

 Diagnosis. The forewing length is 5.5–7.0 mm. The maculation (Fig. 7) is mostly gray with an orange antemedial spot in the posterior half of the forewing (not a completely transverse band), lined with black proximally. The male maxillary palpi have elongate hair-pencils. The gnathos (Fig. 35) is y-shaped, with a short dorsal subapical process. The corpus bursae (Fig. 57) is weakly constricted between the anterior and posterior lobes, and the ductus bursae is dilated half its length, as far as the posterior end of the corpus bursae. A small signum is present at the juncture of the dilated section of the ductus bursae. The posterior margin of the antrum (Fig. 73) is narrow with short, recurved lateral projections.

description: This report reflects a sharp rise in activities following the announcement on April 16 by the Honourable Jean-Luc Pepin, Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources that funds had been approved. Shortly afterwards, the terms of reference of the TRIUMF Board of Management were ratified by the Boards of Governors of the four participating universities, and the Board proceeded to appoint an Operating Committee for the project. Group leaders responsible for the different areas of research and development were appointed. Progress in the cyclotron and beam transport design has been increasing during the latter part of the year as specialist staff have joined. A Building Committee has been set up and a conceptual building and site layout completed. Specifications for the first stage Office/Laboratory building are ready for call of tenders. A Safety Committee has been appointed and has prepared a proposal concerning the safety requirements of the facility. Engineering firms have been awarded contracts for detailed design of the buildings, cyclotron and ancillary equipment. A project management office has been set up and has completed a first critical path schedule. Five Users Groups have been organized among the interested scientists in the North West. These groups have been examining the experimental use of the facility and the conceptual building layout. Special mention must be made of the completion of the first TRIUMF physics experiment. With extraordinary help from the Rutherford Laboratory, using their Proton Linear Accelerator precise measurements have been made of the lifetime of the H⁻ ion under conditions which pertain to the outer orbit radius for TRIUMF. These measurements were completed most expeditiously and in time to make the necessary adjustments to the cyclotron parameters without delay to our project. On the basis of progress we have already made, I am confident that 1969 will see us a substantial way towards completion of the engineering design of TRIUMF.

description: In the framework of the hierarchical model the intra-cluster medium properties of galaxy clusters are tightly linked to structure formation, which makes X-ray surveys well suited for cosmological studies. To constrain cosmological parameters accurately by use of galaxy clusters in X-ray surveys, a better understanding of selection effects related to the detection method is needed. We aim at a better understanding of galaxy cluster morphologies to include corrections between the different core types and covariances with X-ray luminosities in selection functions. We stress the morphological deviations between a newly described surface brightness (SB) profile characterization and a commonly used single $β$-model. We investigate a novel approach to describe SB profiles, where the excess cool-core emission in the galaxy cluster centres is modelled using wavelet decomposition. Morphological parameters and the residuals are compared to classical single $β$-models. Using single $β$-models to describe the ensemble of overall SB profiles leads on average to a non-zero bias ($0.032 \pm 0.003$) in the outer part of the clusters, i.e. a $\sim 3\%$ systematic difference in the SB at large radii. In addition $β$-models show a general trend towards underestimating the flux in the outskirts for smaller core radii. Fixing the $β$ parameter to $2/3$ doubles the bias and increases the residuals from a single $β$-model up to more than $40\%$. Modelling the core region in the fitting procedure reduces the impact of these two effects significantly. We find a positive scaling between shape parameters and temperature, as well as a negative correlation ($\sim-0.4$) between extent and luminosity. Our non-parametric analysis of the self-similar scaled emission measure profiles indicates no systematic core-type differences of median profiles in the galaxy clusters outskirts.

Eine Methodik zur Unterstützung der Suche und Auswahl von Partnern für kooperative Produktinnovationsprojekte. A methodology for partner selection in collaborative product innovation projects [online]
Creators: name: Schweinberger, Dirk
Publisher: name: Universität Karlsruhe (TH)
Year: 2002

description: Die Kooperative Produktinnovation (KoPi) erlaubt es Unternehmen, gemeinsam mit kompetenten externen Partnern, technische Produkte mit Innovationspotenzial markt­ und anforderungsgerecht zu entwickeln. Hierzu wird die Erarbeitung von Teilsystemen, zu deren Realisierung spezielles Know­how und Technologie im eigenen Unternehmen nicht wirtschaftlich verfügbar ist, bewusst an Dritte vergeben, die in diesen Bereichen über Kernkompetenzen verfügen. Vom Auffinden des bestgeeigneten Partners und der Kenntnis, welche Risiken mit diesem im Hinblick auf das individuelle Kooperationsprojekt bestehen, hängt im Wesentlichen der Erfolg einer solchen Kooperation ab. Bis heute existieren jedoch keine methodischen Hilfsmittel, die den Prozess der Partnersuche­ und Auswahl innerhalb der o.g. Thematik effektiv unterstützen. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Entwicklung einer Methodik beschrieben, die es produktentwicklungsbetreibenden Industrieunternehmen erlaubt, Kooperationspartner für Produktinno-vationsprojekte gezielt zu finden, deren Eignung für das individuelle Projekt detailliert zu erfassen, das mit der individuellen Kooperation verbundene Risiken­ und Chancenpotenzial zu erkennen sowie beim Vorliegen mehrerer potenzieller Kandidaten den Optimalpartner zu identifizieren. Ausgehend von der Analyse der Partnerauswahlproblematik innerhalb kooperativer Produktinnovationsprojekte werden hierzu zunächst relevante Einflussfaktoren auf die Kooperation und somit auf die Partnerwahl abgeleitet. Diese Einflussfaktoren bilden die Basis für die Bildung von Anforderungen die von einem Partner idealerweise zu erfüllen sind und das "Wunschprofil" bilden. Die sog. "Kandidatenpotenzialanalyse" erlaubt es schließlich, das tatsächliche Profil eines Kandidaten zu ermitteln. Hierbei wird auch aufgezeigt, wie mit Hilfe der "Fuzzy­Logic" die Problematik des unscharfen Charakters von zu beurteilenden unternehmerischen Merkmalen, behandelt werden kann. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wird dargestellt, wie die umfangreiche theoretische Methodik in einer multimodularen Software komfortabel nutzbar wird. Die hierin realisierte "Drei­Ebenen­Betrachtungsweise". Anforderungen­Indikatoren­Merkmale ermöglicht das Identifizieren von Ursachen für "misfits" unter den Partnern bereits im Projektvorfeld. Durch Anwendung des erarbeiteten Maßnahmenkataloges besteht dann die Möglichkeit zur Minimierung der erkannten Risiken.
