description: La problématique de la solidité bancaire dans le contexte international en période de crise est particulièrement importante car les chocs économiques peuvent avoir des répercussions sur la santé financière des banques. Dans un contexte international, les déterminants d'efficacité de la solidité bancaire peuvent également inclure la coopération internationale entre les régulateurs et superviseurs bancaires, ainsi que la mise en place de normes et de standards internationaux pour assurer la stabilité financière à l'échelle mondiale. Les déterminants de la solidité bancaire au Maroc comprennent la réglementation prudentielle, la gouvernance institutionnelle, la gestion des risques, la qualité des actifs et la liquidité. Dans quelle mesure peut-ont construire un indice synthétique de solidité bancaire permettant de surveiller efficacement les banques marocaines et éviter ainsi toute crise financière ? Pour traiter cette problématique, nous avons opter pour une étude statistique comparative, rapprochant la situation au Maroc par rapport à celle des 24 pays de comparables, via un indice synthétique construit sur la base d’agglomération d’indices partiels homogènes avec des pondération égales, après normalisation empirique. L'étude a porté sur la comparaison du niveau de la solidité bancaire dans un échantillon de 24 pays y compris Maroc. Elle a montré. Les résultats mettent en évidence que l’évolution et la volatilité de l'ISB au Maroc, bien qu'elles restent insignifiantes, sont majoritairement dépendantes de celles de l’IAFP. De même globalement, le mauvais positionnement marocain à l’échelle du l’échantillon de pays de référence, avec un ISB relativement faible.

description: The role of general and lead designer of the recently inaugurated Paks-Kalocsa Danube Bridge in Hungary was undertaken by CÉH Zrt. The total length of the bridge is 946 m, of which the length of the extradosed river bridge is 440 m. Span arrangement of the extradosed river bridge is 119+200+119 m and the deck width is 20.86 m. The parabolically haunched stiffening girder is a composite dual cell box section comprised of corrugated steel webs and post tensioned in-situ rc. concrete bottom and top slabs. The extradosed river bridge superstructure was erected by the balanced cantilever method. In the presentation, superstructure camber control is presented on the below structural members:
- bespoke designed cable anchorage steel link members at rc. pylon heads
- general stiffening girder sections
- stiffening girder section with cast-in extradosed cable anchorage members
Regarding the pylon structure, the camber control of pylon formwork will be presented for each casting phase, the installation and adjustment of bespoke designed link members, as well as the spatial angle settings of cable anchorage plates. The comparison of proprietary saddle elements with the bespoke designed link member will be presented as well. In the presentation the vertical and horizontal camber setting routine will be explored for the general stiffening girder section. For the deck section with extradosed anchorage members, the site measurement and setting routine of the centreline of cable anchorage tubes along with optional adjustment of anchorage support plates will be presented. The presentation will explore the correction adjustment of the steel protective tubes that are cast-in the top deck plate with a shim plate rings to ensure the installation of the extradosed cables in later construction phases. In the presentation we discuss the designer’s data provision, geodetic measurement, site adjustment sequence and we provide the statement of quantities for the measurement points.

description: En 2006, le Maroc a mis en place une nouvelle politique industrielle afin de rendre l’industrie une source de croissance économique. La diversification de l’offre industrielle marocaine, une meilleure attractivité des investissements étrangers et l’amélioration de la compétitivité internationale de l’industrie nationale sont les principaux axes définis pour moderniser du tissu industriel national. Dix sept ans après où en est l’industrie marocaine ?D’un côté l’analyse documentaire réalisée nous a permis de dresser le chemin d’industrialisation parcouru par le Maroc en particulier les deux dernières décennies. D’un autre côté, l’analyse chiffrée des données statistiques montre que la richesse crée par l’industrialisation, la structure de la production industrielle, la valeur ajoutée créée, n’ont pas atteint les ambitions désirées. Par contre l’offre logistique et les mesures d’attractivité pour les investissements étrangers, ont contribué à la réussite du décollage des nouveaux métiers du Maroc dans l’automobile et l’aéronautique.

description: We present early-time, hour-to-day cadence spectroscopy of the nearby type II supernova (SN II) 2024ggi, which was discovered at a phase when the SN shock just emerged from the red-supergiant (RSG) progenitor star. Over the first few days after the first light, SN 2024ggi exhibited prominent narrow emission lines formed through intense and persistent photoionization of the nearby circumstellar material (CSM). In the first 63 hours, spectral lines of He, C, N, and O revealed a rapid rise in ionization, as a result of the progressive sweeping-up of the CSM by the shock. The duration of the IIn-like spectra indicates a dense and relatively confined CSM distribution extending up to $\sim 4 \times 10^{14}$ cm. Spectral modeling reveals a CSM mass loss rate at this region exceeding $5 \times 10^{-3}{\rm M}_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$ is required to reproduce low-ionization emissions, which dramatically exceeds that of an RSG. Analyzing H$α$ emission shift implies the velocity of the unshocked outer CSM to be between 20 and 40 km s$^{-1}$, matching the typical wind velocity of an RSG. The differences between the inner and outer layers of the CSM and an RSG progenitor highlight a complex mass loss history before the explosion of SN 2024ggi.

description: Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is vital for ensuring the safety and longevity of bridges, utilizing various sensor-based techniques to detect damage, assess performance, and monitor long-term deterioration. Traditional methods, such as visual inspections, lack precision and are prone to human error, whereas more advanced techniques like vibration-based monitoring, acoustic emission, strain gauges, and GNSS offer real-time damage detection and millimeter-level precision but often require complex planning and high costs. The presented 6D sensor, developed for infrastructure monitoring, accurately measures complex displacements and rotations, offering enhanced precision through a combination of machine learning and mathematical algorithms. When paired with low-cost, high-precision GNSS systems, it provides comprehensive real-time data on both localized and large-scale structural movements, improving insights into bridge behavior under various environmental conditions and loads.This paper explores the integration of 6D sensors with GNSS technology, discussing the advantages of real-time monitoring for predictive maintenance and presenting insights from ongoing project results.

description: Density functional theory (DFT) combined with non-equilibrium Greens functions (NEGF) is a powerful approach to model quantum transport under external bias potentials, at reasonable computational cost. In this work we present a new interface between the popular mixed Gaussian/plane wave electronic structure package CP2K and the NEGF code SMEAGOL, the most feature-rich implementation of DFT-NEGF available for CP2K to-date. The CP2K+SMEAGOL interface includes the implementation of current induced forces. We verify this implementation for a variety of systems: an infinite 1D Au wire, a parallel-plate capacitor and a Au-H2-Au junction. We find good agreement with SMEAGOL calculations performed with SIESTA for the same systems, and with the example of a solvated Au wire demonstrate for the first time that DFT-NEGF can be used to perform molecular dynamics simulations under bias of large-scale condensed phase systems under realistic operating conditions.

description: L’épidémie de Covid-19 et les mesures de confinement prises par la majorité des pays provoquent des tourments et des inquiétudes quant aux conséquences négatives attendues sur les économies, aux crises financières possibles et au ralentissement de la mondialisation. Il est question d’inquiétudes –compréhensibles– de pays riches. Certes, l’épidémie de Covid-19 se considère comme un choc mondial qui touche toutes les économies sans exception. En fait, les économies du monde vont en subir bien plus qu’on ne le croyait au départ. Cette situation exige une réponse politique prise de manière concertée et scrupuleusement coordonnée, à l’échelon mondiale, afin de réduire les préjudices infligés à la vie économique, protéger la stabilité financière et préparer le redémarrage économique une fois la pandémie sanitaire sous contrôle. Les gouvernements ont entamé la mise en œuvre de plusieurs mesures qui ont pour objectif d’enrayer les incidences économiques de cette crise. En réalité, les mesures qui ont pour but de soutenir la liquidité – garanties publiques et impositions différées pour les entreprises et les personnes – deviennent inéluctables. Donc, l’objectif du présent article est d’essayer d’éclaircir les mesures indispensables pour enrayer les retombées négatives de Covid-19 et par la suite de contribuer à une relance économique.

description: It is known that for the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ chain in the critical regime, the scaling limit of the vacuum Bethe roots yields an infinite set of numbers that coincide with the energy spectrum of the quantum mechanical 3D anharmonic oscillator. The discovery of this curious relation, among others, gave rise to the approach referred to as the ODE/IQFT (or ODE/IM) correspondence. Here we consider a multiparametric generalization of the Heisenberg spin chain, which is associated with the inhomogeneous six-vertex model. When quasi-periodic boundary conditions are imposed the lattice system may be explored within the Bethe Ansatz technique. We argue that for the critical spin chain, with a properly formulated scaling limit, the scaled Bethe roots for the ground state are described by second order differential equations, which are multi-parametric generalizations of the Schrödinger equation for the anharmonic oscillator.

description: Cet article analyse le niveau de compétitivité extérieure du Maroc dans son contexte régional et international. Malgré une politique économique ouverte et la signature de plusieurs accords de libre-échange, le Maroc continue de souffrir d'un déficit commercial structurel, attribuable à l’insuffisance de la diversification et de la valeur ajoutée au niveau des exportations. Néanmoins, le Maroc a réalisé une croissance significative des exportations de produits de haute technologie, en particulier dans le secteur automobile qui est devenu le principal secteur d'exportation du Maroc. De plus, le marché intérieur du pays a connu une évolution positive qui reflète la confiance des investisseurs étrangers et ce, grâce à une série de réformes économiques mises en place depuis les années 2000. Enfin, la modernisation du secteur privé et la convergence des stratégies sectorielles sont devenues des nécessités impérieuses pour améliorer davantage la compétitivité extérieure du Maroc et de relever les principaux défis qui font obstacles sa la position commerciale.

description: Small-sized box girders have been successfully used in steel and composite bridges for several decades. Internal pressure measurements on small-sized box girders have shown that there are seasonal and daily fluctuations in internal pressure. These pressure fluctuations cause bending stress on the longitudinal single-sided fillet welds. In Germany, this load case is considered by the regulation “RE-ING”. This regulation leads to an increase in the weld thickness. As part of the ongoing research project "Economic Dimensioning of Fillet Welds in Small-Sized Box Girders," this unplanned stress and the load-bearing capacity of single-sided welded fillet welds are investigated. The aim of the research project is to further develop the current design method in terms of material efficiency while maintaining the safety level of the Eurocode. This contribution presents the first results of the research project "Economic Dimensioning of Fillet Welds in Small-Sized Box Girders."

description: Cet article explore la volatilité des actions, en mettant l'accent sur l'impact des cours des filiales sur ceux de l'ONA (Organisation Nord-Africaine, Société Anonyme) au Maroc entre 2007 et 2009. Les filiales examinées comprennent Attijariwafa Bank, Agma Lahlou Tazi, Lesieur Cristal, Managem, Cosumar et Centrale Laitière. Initialement, nous avons utilisé un modèle de régression linéaire pour notre analyse. Cependant, en raison de la possible non-stationnarité des variables, susceptible de conduire à des régressions fallacieuses, nous avons adopté une approche révélant des relations de cointégration. Les modèles à correction d'erreur, combinant des termes en niveau et en taux de croissance, se sont avérés être le cadre le plus approprié pour notre analyse. En utilisant les modèles ECM pour étudier la dynamique de la volatilité, nous avons découvert que les cours des actions de quatre sociétés ont une influence significative sur la volatilité de l'ONA. Ces sociétés opèrent dans trois secteurs clés : financier, agro-alimentaire et minéral. De plus, notre analyse des chocs impulsionnels a révélé que la masse monétaire réagit positivement à un choc positif sur la base monétaire, le crédit à l'économie et les avoirs extérieurs nets. En outre, un choc positif sur le coefficient de l'ONA entraîne un effet positif sur les coefficients des variables qui évoluent de manière similaire au cours de l'ONA.

Publisher: name: University of Central Lancashire
Year: 2027

description: When a business pursues international expansion, it encounters a complex diversity of internationalisation factors and host-country aspects relevant to local adaptation, acceptance, and Cultural Tolerance (CT). CT is the concept of a nation accepting new and different values, different from those embedded in its culture through permission, co-existence, appreciation and respect for diversity. International enterprises face the effects of home-host Psychic Distance (PD) which obstructs the flow of information among countries and acts as a barrier on the International Small Medium Enterprise (SME)s’ learning processes (Dikova, 2009). The scope of this research is to identify the moderating role of CT on the effects of PD on SME performance. The primary objective of this research is to conceptualise a model and operationalise a measure of CT and test its impact on SME performance. This is accomplished through the development of a framework of CT by incorporating various dimensions and aspects into a complete CT model (CTM) followed by the construction of a composite index (CTI) encompassing multiple reliable indicators. Through a rigorous conceptual and empirical approach, the country-scores of EU countries are developed and presented into the CT Index (CTI), along with their evolution over years presenting considerable implications of upcoming trends. The CTI is then tested on international SMEs by focusing on a sample of 285 SMEs with 926 Foreign Subsidiaries (Fsubs) across the EU. The findings confirm the significance of CT in cross-cultural examinations through a positive impact on SME performance and a moderating impact on PD. This PhD addresses research gaps overlooking countries’ variation

description: Computational modelling for bridge analysis has evolved toward greater sophistication with complex three-dimensional FEM models. Recent software products allow modelling to be completed relatively quickly and easily. However, there are a number of issues that are not precisely clarified, including at the normative level in the Eurocodes. Such an issue is taking into consideration the soil-structure interaction in the horizontal and vertical directions under various types of actions, including the influence on the acceleration response spectra; determining and controlling the stiffness of railway bridges in the transverse direction; the interaction between the railway track and the bridge structure and the non-linear behaviour of the connection in the horizontal and vertical directions; horizontal reactions in railway bridge bearings from seismic actions, etc. This paper focuses on some aspects of the raised issues, regarding FEM modelling of bridges. Furthermore, recommendations for improving of accuracy of computational models are given.

description: A long-term measurement was conducted to search for $α$, double-$α$ and double-$β$ decays with $γ$ quanta emission in naturally occurring osmium isotopes. This study took advantage of two ultra-low background HPGe detectors and one ultra-low background BEGe detector at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) of the INFN. Over almost 5 years of data were taken using high-purity osmium samples of approximately 173 g. The half-life limits set for a decays of $^{184}$Os to the first $2^+$ 103.6 keV excited level of $^{180}$W ($T_{1/2} > 9.3 \times 10^{15}$ yr) and of $^{186}$Os to the first $2^+$ 100.1 keV of $^{182}$W ($T_{1/2} > 4.8 \times 10^{17}$ yr) exceed substantially the present theoretical predictions that are at level of $T_{1/2} \sim (0.6 - 3) \times 10^{15}$ yr for $^{184}$Os and $T_{1/2} \sim (0.3 - 2) \times 10^{17}$ yr for $^{186}$Os. New half-life limits on the 2EC and EC$β^+$ decay of $^{184}$Os to the ground and excited levels of $^{184}$W were set at level of $T_{1/2} > 10^{16} - 10^{17}$ yr; a lower limit on the $2β^-$ decay of $^{192}$Os to the $2^+$ 316.5 keV excited level of $^{192}$Pt was estimated as $T_{1/2} > 6.1 \times 10^{20}$ yr. The half-life limits for $2α$ decay of $^{189}$Os and $^{192}$Os were set for the first time at level of $T_{1/2} > 10^{20}$ yr.

Coagulation-flocculation process on a lattice: Monte Carlo simulations

description: Coagulation-flocculation, the physicochemical process widely used for purification a wastewater, is affected both by chemical details of involved polymers and by the statistics of their conformations on a large scale. The latter aspect is covered in this study by employing a coarse-grained modelling approach based on a combination of two paradigms of statistical mechanics. One is the self-avoiding walk (SAW) which generates a range of conformations for a linear polymer of $N_{\rm SAW}$ monomers. Another one is a non-trivial diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) process of $N_{\rm DLA}$ impurities (referred thereafter as "particles") which describes their coagulation occurring with the probability $0< p \leq 1$ ($p=1$ recovers a standard DLA). DLA of diffusive particles is complemented by their irreversible adsorption on the SAW monomers occurring with the probability equal to one, both processes resulting in formation of the DLA-SAW agglomerates. The dynamics of formation of such agglomerates, as well as their fractal dimensions and internal structure are of practical interest. We consider a range of related characteristics, such as: (i) absolute $N_a$ and relative $n_a$ adsorbing efficiencies of SAW; (ii) effective gyration radius $R_{g {\rm DLA-SAW}}$ of the DLA-SAW agglomerates; and (iii) the fractal dimension $D_{\rm DLA-SAW}$ of these aggregates. These are studied within a wide range for each parameter from a set $\{p,N_{\rm DLA},N_{\rm SAW}\}$.

description: Most optical spectropolarimeters built to date operate as long-slit or point-source instruments; they are inefficient for observations of extended objects such as galaxies and nebulae. 2D spectropolarimetry technique development is a major challenge in astronomical instrumentation. At the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) FiberLab, we are developing a spectropolarimetry capable Integral Field front-end called FiberPol(-6D) for the existing SpUpNIC spectrograph on the SAAO 1.9 m telescope. SpUpNIC is a general purpose 2 arc-minute long-slit spectrograph with a grating suite covering the wavelength range from 350 to 1000 nm and at spectral resolutions between 500 and 6000. FiberPol generates 6D observational data: x-y spatial dimensions, wavelength, and the three linear Stokes parameters $I$, $q$ and $u$. Using a rotating half-wave plate and a Wollaston prism, FiberPol executes two-channel polarimetry, and each channel is fed to an array of 14 fibers, corresponding to a field of view of $10\times20~arcseconds^2$ sampled with 2.9 arcsecond diameter fiber cores. These fiber arrays are then rerouted to form a pseudo-slit input to SpUpNIC. FiberPol aims to achieve a polarimetric accuracy of 0.1 % per spectral resolution bin. Further, it can also function as a non-polarimetric integral-field unit. The instrument design has been completed and it is currently being assembled and characterized in the lab. It is scheduled for on-sky commissioning in the second half of 2024. In this paper, we present the scientific and technical goals of FiberPol, its overall design and initial results from the lab assembly and testing. FiberPol is a low cost technology demonstrator, and the entire system predominantly employs small size, commercial off-the-shelve optics and optomechanical components. It can be modified and replicated for use on any existing spectrograph, especially on bigger telescopes.

Förster

description: This lecture was prepared as an introductory lecture for master's students in "Biomedical Imaging" program at the University of Turku. It is part of the course "Fluorescence in Bioanalytical Research"

Link to the course from University of Turku study guide: https://opas.peppi.utu.fi/en/course/BIMA5105/7803?period=2024-202

It is only the introduction and by no means comprehensive teaching material. This version of the slides does not include the application of Fluoresence Lifetime Microscopy (FLIM) in measuring FLIM.

Teaching plan:

I start with an activating exercise, linking to the previous lectures of the course and giving students motivation on why we need the microscopy technique I am teaching them today. We discuss fluorescence resonance energy transfer and how to measure that in biological applications to show interactions between molecules.

The teaching is based on giving a lecture and in between I ask students questions and try to keep them active and engaged. I have a soft toy with me that I hand to one student and if the students are not actively raising hands I ask them to circulate the toy to the next person answering the questions.  

As for the material I am using powerpoint slides, mentimeter online tool for brainstorming, short video clips or parts of londer videos, and interactive online demos that I have links to in slides.

At the end of the lecture I bring the same activating assignment up and ask them to redesign the experiment using the knowledge they learned today.
