description: Developing resiliency in supply chains became vital in the recent years due to global diversification and vulnerability to risks. Firms need to identify, evaluate, and mitigate risks in supply chain to maintain continuity and create competitive advantage. Although the problem of supply chain disruptions has existed for a long time, less attention has been given by researchers in exploring the adoption of advanced technologies to build resilient supply chains. This study explored the potential of mitigating supply chain disruptions with the use of Industry 4.0 technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT) and Supply chain data analytics platform which develops digital twin environment for supply chains.
 This research gathered expert’s opinion on the resilience capabilities developed in supply chain by digital twin adoption, stages and practices involved in digital twin assimilation through Delphi survey with subject matter experts and supply chain practitioners. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants to attain deep understanding on the resilience capabilities gained by digital twin and stages in digital twin adoption. Comparison of the results from Delphi survey and interviews was carried out to synthesize the results to yield a comprehensive understanding of resilience capabilities gained through digital twin and adoption stages of supply chain digital twin. This research has conducted interviews with 21 subject matter experts and completed three rounds of Delphi survey (with participants n = 15, 11, 11 in three rounds respectively) to develop a framework for digital twin adoption to enhance supply chain resilience.
 This research determined that digital twin develops real-time monitoring and sensing capabilities, planning and decision support system, and automating decisions and action execution capabilities in supply chain. In addition, digital twin positively impacts resilience elements such as agility, supply chain reconfiguration, robustness, and collaboration in supply chain, which improves the supply chain performance. The results from this study were utilized to develop a framework for enabling supply chain resilience through digital twin. The framework included antecedents, consequences, and various moderators that impact digital twin adoption and diffusion in supply chains. Finally, this research developed a five-stage roadmap for adopting digital twin capabilities in supply chain.

description: Shock structures such as the bow shock and shock wave-boundary layer interactions (SWBLI) are a major cause of aerodynamic performance abatement and heating in supersonic flows. Which makes them a major concern for designers dealing with aerodynamic bodies in this regime. Furthermore, the leading edge is the most critical point of these bodies as it experiences the highest thermo-mechanical loads. In the present dissertation, a three-dimensional (3D) shock-vortex interaction appearing at the junction of an airfoil geometry bounded by a wall was studied. As well as the implications of applying flow control to it via leading edge injection.
The two-fold character of this interaction was used to divide the appoach in 2 steps: firstly study of the two-dimensional bow shock away from the wall and secondly tackle the full 3D SWBLI. In these 2 phases, a combination of numerical an experimantal tools were employed: steady and unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations, Detached-Eddy Simulations and experiments at the PETAL wind tunnel facility. For the 2D bow shock control, a systematic parametric study was carried out, varying the injection boundary conditions, injection slot geometry and frequency during pulsating blowing. Drag and thermal load reductions were achieved thanks to the leading edge injection, together with modification of the shock topology that were reported. The variation of the injection port size allowed the identification of a novel Coanda effect that makes the leading edge flow topology non-symmetric in spite of the perfect symmetry of the problem.
RANS and DES simulations were employed to study the mean and unsteady flow topology of the 3D SWBLI, respectively, both with and without leading edge injection. The effect of flow control on wall variables and flow structures was deeply analyzed, doing it for different thicknesses of the incoming boundary layer. The DES cases allowed to identify the low frequency shock motion for cases with and without flow control, linking it to the breathing mode of the horseshoe vortex system. To complete the analysis of the 3D SWBLI, the same geometries previously studied numerically were experimentally assessed in a newly designed Mach 4 wind tunnel test section. Both static pressure measurements and Schlieren imaging were obtained for the cases with and without leading edge injection. The expected trends and flow structures based on the literature and the previous numerical work were found, with some differences in the size of these structures as predicted by CFD and those found experimentally.

description: In 1741, a British fleet of around 124 ships attacked Cartagena. The purpose of the siege was to gain control of the Spanish port and eventually use it to invade inner colonial lands. The siege involved invasion by sea and land and was at first successful. There was one remaining obstacle to win the victory, the San Felipe de Barajas Castle. This attack resulted more difficult as it involved mobilization of British troops into the jungle, where soldiers were exposed to mosquitoes. As the battle progressed, the British army was forced to retreat as they had lost thousands of men, the majority from yellow fever virus, leading to a Spanish victory. This is just an example of how mosquitoes can influence the outcome of history. Even in our days, we see how the mosquitoes can affect the way we live and the tremor they can cause with outbreaks like Zika, yellow fever, chikungunya, or dengue viruses. As such, it is important to be prepared and develop strategies that would harm the tight mosquito-virus relationships. For that reason, understanding the life cycle of these viruses in the mosquito would provide targets for disease control. One of the major steps in the life cycle of the virus is the maturation process, which heavily relies on the host proteases. The objective of this dissertation was to identify the mosquito proteases that are necessary for the maturation of flaviviruses and alphaviruses. Given that multiple viral families utilize these proteases, disrupting their function would prove harmful for different viruses at once. In the mosquito, Aedes aegypti, there are three proprotein convertases, named furin1, furin2 and NC2. These proteases retain high similarity with the human and drosophila homologs and were initially hypothesized to be involved in the viral maturation process. Recombinant expression and enzymatic activity assays of these proteins showed that furin1 exhibited activity comparable to human furin but significantly higher than furin2, whereas NC2 was not active under the experimental conditions. Further, CRISPr knockouts in mosquito Aag2 cells revealed that furin1 but not furin2 is required for efficient maturation flaviviruses and alphaviruses, as reduced proteolytic cleavage is also reflected in reduced viral titer. Combined, these experiments suggest that furin1 has a role in the proteolytic cleavage of different families of arboviruses in mosquitoes and is associated with their maturation and infectivity. Attacking the maturation process of these viruses during the infection of the mosquito will change the history of vector-borne diseases control.

The role of geographic knowledge in sub-city level geolocation algorithms
Creators: name: DI ROCCO, LAURA

description: Geolocation of microblog messages has been largely investigated in the lit-
erature. Many solutions have been proposed that achieve good results at the

city-level. Existing approaches are mainly data-driven (i.e., they rely on a
training phase). However, the development of algorithms for geolocation at
sub-city level is still an open problem also due to the absence of good training

datasets. In this thesis, we investigate the role that external geographic know-
ledge can play in geolocation approaches. We show how di)erent geographical

data sources can be combined with a semantic layer to achieve reasonably
accurate sub-city level geolocation. Moreover, we propose a knowledge-based
method, called Sherloc, to accurately geolocate messages at sub-city level, by
exploiting the presence in the message of toponyms possibly referring to the
speci*c places in the target geographical area. Sherloc exploits the semantics
associated with toponyms contained in gazetteers and embeds them into a
metric space that captures the semantic distance among them. This allows
toponyms to be represented as points and indexed by a spatial access method,
allowing us to identify the semantically closest terms to a microblog message,
that also form a cluster with respect to their spatial locations. In contrast to
state-of-the-art methods, Sherloc requires no prior training, it is not limited
to geolocating on a *xed spatial grid and it experimentally demonstrated its
ability to infer the location at sub-city level with higher accuracy.
Design and assessment of an assistive wearable platform for acoustic spatial awareness

description: Partial hearing loss is a common condition: 360 Million people in the world suffer from disabling hearing loss. Recent technological advancements brought on the market hearing aids that improve speech understanding during conversations with a single human talker, or while watching television or during leisure activities. Nonetheless, very common acoustic scenarios such as noisy or crowded environments, or the presence of multiple surrounding talkers around the listener, are still problematic.
This Ph.D. thesis exposes the concept of a novel device which is complementary to hearing aids and has the aim of increasing the speech comprehension in noise for people with hearing impairment. It consists of a couple of microphone arrays embedded in the temples of a pair of glasses. It can be connected to hearing aids or used by earphones and provides an effective spatial segregation of sounds by means of an implementation of robust beamforming filter synthesis.
The experimental part of the thesis illustrates the three studies performed on participants with healthy hearing and hearing impairment to investigate the contribution of glasses spatial filtering to speech comprehension in noise and to compare it with previous art.
Symmetric and asymmetric sound filtering configurations were tested and the results showed that the use of binaural spatial filtering offered by the device can further improve the speech comprehension of hearing impaired listeners compared to in-the-ear hearing aids. Moreover, it can be useful also for people with healthy hearing, to handle conversations with two speakers in noisy contexts.

title: An Investigation of e-Government Adoption
in Bahrain and Evaluate the key Determining
Factors for Strategic Advantage
Creators: name: Kamali, Ali Mohamed Abbas
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2018

description: This study investigated the e-Government initiatives in developing countries and analysed
Bahrain’s government stance through a case study where the e-Government system is
considered as a core strategy. This research therefore sought to address citizens and
expatriates' adoption of e-Government services in Bahrain as one of developing countries,
which has spent millions of dollars to launch the e-Government initiative, in order to meet
the strategic objectives of Bahrain’s government vision 2030.
The study included an empirical study using exploratory method to comprehend how
citizens/expatriates of Bahrain accept the e-Government service, and evaluated the factors
influenced users to adopt this new technology (i.e. e-Service). The research also examined
the two aspects of the e-Government services and their stakeholders, including users and
service providers. Through a descriptive study, this qualitative case study methodology
was conducted via an interview with a key official in the e-Government authority in
Bahrain, and the focus group with four specialists in e-Government systems, to determine
the e-Government’s usability from the implementation aspects. The quantitative method,
on the other hand, was implemented through questionnaires with both citizens and
expatriates to determine the e-Government’s usability from the adoption aspects in
Bahrain.
The extended technology acceptance model (TAM) was used as predictive modelling and a
technique for analysing results of the user survey. The newly developed conceptual model
via a structural analysis indicated that citizens and expatriates in Bahrain are willing to
accept and use the e-Government system, and it is the most determinant methods of
peoples' intention with the system. However, the research indicated there are some issues
related to the trust and cultural constructs that need to be addressed by the government
based on the attitude of citizens and expatriates determined toward Behaviour Intention
(BI) directly, and through the perceived usefulness and ease of use. The research indicated
the common factors influence e-Government's adoption from both demand and supply
aspects in Bahrain, and the best solutions proposed by the respondents.
The conclusion of this study based on the findings comprised of a conceptual framework
that explained why the citizens and expatriates' adoption of e-Government services as the
core strategic enabler to Bahrain's vision 2030.

title: Exploring Learning in Practice to
support Construction Teachers’
Professional Development
Creators: name: Durrant, Karl Kenneth
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2015

description: I am a teacher trainer. I work for an FE institution that specialises in construction
education. In this study I report on an action research project carried out with the coparticipation
of the construction teachers (my students) with whom I work. I engage
with my students as I set out to nurture a professional development community of
practice, seeking to free them from conventional teacher development practices.
My informal approach to professional development, based on the principles of
theories of situated cognition, suggests learning through abstraction can occur in
formal and informal contexts and traverse contexts. At the start, I asked my students
to volunteer to work with me. On recruitment, I explained the purpose of my
research and discussed what I saw as the key ideas of communities of practice
explicitly. This provided the initial abstraction. Activity developed co-participants’
understanding of communities of practice, leading us to identify communities of
practice that we saw as influencing their developing teacher identity. Co-participants
then used this understanding in lesson-study activity. As we progressed, we agreed
that we had become a professional development community of practice.
Membership encouraged a proactive positive teacher identity, equipping coparticipants
with new tools for teaching. Co-participation was empowering. It
inspired the creation of innovative teaching resources (in-tune with their students’
identity) for proactive learning. Our powerful teaching community of practice formed
out of the initial abstract concept I provided, in collaborative negotiated activity.
Those co-participants who had recently completed formal teacher training became
central to our professional development community of practice. The engagement of
others was more peripheral. Co-participants who were more central had a greater
understanding of learning and were better equipped to teach their own students.
Legitimate peripheral participants learnt from these co-participants. At the same
time as my approach develops individual mental processes, it enculturates teachers
into our college. The project supported the development of critically reflective and
reflexive practitioners, with what look to be sustainable effects. Data provides insight into the bridges and barriers to establishing a professional development community
of practice and teacher identity formation.

description: La questione delle origini della formazione del futuro analitico tedesco espresso dalla perifrasi werden + infinito, che nel corso del XIV e del XV secolo prese il sopravvento sulle consuete perifrasi altotedesche medie werden + participio presente e verbo modale + infinito, � stata oggetto di numerosi studi. Il presente contributo si apre con una sintesi delle varie ipotesi avanzate negli anni circa l?insorgere e la diffusione della nuova perifrasi per poi passare ad esaminare ed approfondire quanto la formazione werden + infinito venisse effettivamente impiegata nel periodo protomoderno e se, al contempo, continuassero o meno a coesistere anche le altre modalit� per rendere il futuro in uso in epoca media (indicativo e congiuntivo presente, verbo modale + infinito). Base della ricerca � data dalla testimonianza offerta dalla tradizione manoscritta del cosiddetto Sprachbuch italo-tedesco di Meister J�rg. In particolare l?analisi, condotta sulle sole sezioni dialogiche, mira a dimostrare come la nuova perifrasi fosse gi� ampiamente usata in testi scritti del XV secolo, sebbene l?uso del presente indicativo, non solo come tempo dell?attualit�, ma anche come tempo indicante l?azione futura, fosse ancora particolarmente diffuso, soprattutto in quei testi dall?evidente finalit� pratica del tipo dello Sprachbuch in cui � forse possibile riscontrare costruzioni pi� orientate sulle forme parlate della lingua tedesca dell?epoca.
A Preliminary Phonological Sketch Of Va, An Angkuic Language
Creators: name: Hsiu, Andrew
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2015

description: The Northern Va language belongs to the Angkuic subgroup of the Palaungic branch of Austroasiatic (Hsiu 2015), and is spoken in Mojiang County of south-central Yunnan Province, China. The language name Va comes from the the speakers’ self-designated name (autonym), vaʔ⁵¹. Despite the speakers having the autonym vaʔ⁵¹, the Va language does not belong to the Waic subgroup. Va is also tonal unlike most Waic languages. Although this paper specifically describes Northern Va and not Southern Va, Northern Va will simply be referred to as Va in this paper. Unless noted otherwise, Va is used to Northern Va and not Southern Va specifically.

Speakers of Va are classified as ethnic Bulang by the Chinese government, and are also locally referred to by neighboring ethnic groups as the Bulang people (Hsiu 2015). According to my informant, there are about 600 Va households comprising approximately 2,000 individuals in Taihe Administrative Village 太和行政村 in Jingxing Township 景星乡, Mojiang County, Yunnan Province, China. The language is spoken vigorously by all age groups, including children. From my personal observations in the Va villages, on the EGIDS scale, Va would be considered to be at 6a (vigorous), but may be leaning towards 6b (threatened) due to widespread urban migration to Kunming city and Guangdong province.

The only previous documentation of Va is that of Simao (1990), an unpublished Chinese internal government manuscript1. Although Simao (1990) and I both have Va lexical data from the same village of Wamo, Simao (1990) differs significantly from mine. I have not found Simao (1990) to be usable since it contains many transcription errors.

Since no comprehensive sociolinguistic surveys or intelligibility tests have yet been conducted, it cannot be said if Northern Va and Southern Va are indeed separate languages. For now, the name “Va” will be used. No ISO 639-3 code exists for Northern Va as of now.

description: Background
Le perdite aeree prolungate (PAL) sono la principale causa di morbidit� dopo interventi di chirurgia polmonare che si traduce in un prolungamento dei tempi di ospedalizzazione e conseguente incremento della spesa sanitaria.
Differenti tecniche intraoperatorie e sigillanti chirurgici sono stati sviluppati per cercare di prevenire o ridurre l?incidenza delle perdite aeree post-operatorie.
Obiettivi
Questo studio vuole valutare la capacit� del gel piastrinico ottenuto da cordone ombelicale di riparare un danno pleurico in un modello in vitro ed in un modello animale.
Metodi
In vitro � stata confrontata la capacit� di riparazione del gel piastrinico rispetto alle condizioni standard di cultura di cellule mesoteliali umane dopo scratch assay.
Nel modello in vivo, il gel piastrinico derivante da sangue di cordone ombelicale � stato testato sperimentalmente su 53 ratti Wistar, dopo aver effettuato una lesione standardizzata sul polmone sinistro. Dopo sacrificio degli animali a tempistiche prestabilite sono state valutate alterazioni istologiche ed eventuali complicanze. Inoltre, sono stati analizzati cambiamenti nei fattori solubili dell?infiammazione.
Risultati
In vitro, il gel piastrinico ripara pi� velocemente il danno delle cellule mesoteliali rispetto ai controlli (24 vs 35 ore). In vivo, la formazione del nuovo tessuto mesoteliale � stata osservata dopo una media di 44�1 ore nel gruppo trattato rispetto a 130�2.5 ore del gruppo di controllo. La guarigione completa dei campioni trattati con gel piastrinico � stata evidenziata dopo 75�1 ore ora rispetto alle 160�6 ore dei casi controllo. Nel 43% dei trattati sono state rilevate aderenze pleuriche mentre solo nel 17% dei controlli. Alcuni fattori dell?infiammazione erano significativamente ridotti negli animali trattati.
Conclusioni
I risultati ottenuti dal nostro studio sembrano promuovere l?utilizzo del gel piastrinico e dei suoi fattori di crescita nei processi riparativi del tessuto pleurico, inoltre sembra stimolare lo sviluppo di aderenze pleuriche, particolarmente utili nella gestione delle perdite prolungate.
Ipotizziamo che il gel piastrinico giochi un duplice ruolo rilasciando citochine e fattori di crescita che promuovono un processo riparativo pi� rapido e di conseguenza riducono la flogosi.

description: INTRODUCTION A highly polymorphic microsatellite, comprising a variable length of a Cytosine-Adenosine (CA) repeat sequence, has been identified in the promoter region of IGF-I gene. The number of CA repeats ranges between 10 and 24 and the most common allele in the Caucasian population contains 19 CA (192 bp) repeats. Several studies investigated the relationship between this polymorphism and IGF-I levels, with conflicting results. Aim of this study was to investigate the influence of this polymorphism on clinical and biochemical characteristics in 88 acromegalic patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS Different genotypes were studied by microsatellite method and patients were divided in 3 groups: group A, homozygous for 192 bp allele (n=26, 29.2%), group B, with a number of repeats ?19 (n=36, 40%,) and group C, with a number of repeats ?19 (n=27, 30%). 98 healthy patients were analyzed as controls.
RESULTS No difference in the frequency of the different alleles was observed between patients and controls. In the acromegalic population the genotype did not influence IGF-I level at diagnosis. However, a worse of insulin sensitivity documented by a significant increase (p=0.01) in HOMA-IR was observed in group B (6.2�5.9) compared with group A (5.0�3.3) and C (4.0�3.1). Moreover, higher levels of total cholesterol and LDL (p=0.01 and p=0.01 respectively) were present in group B (233�49 and 168.5�46.6 respectively) compared to group C (175.3�43.4 and 104.0�38.2 respectively). Interestingly, the number of discrepant patients (high IGF-I and normal GH levels) during medical therapy was significantly higher in group B compared to groups A (p=0.02) and C (p=0.05).
CONCLUSION Different IGF-I genotypes do not account for a different presentation in acromegalic patients. Nevertheless, our data suggest that a number of CA repeat higher than 19 may be related to a worse glucidic and lipidic metabolism and to a partial disease control during medical treatment.

La Caverna delle Arene candide. Produzioni ceramiche e dinamiche di popolamento in Liguria occidentale nel corso del VI millennio BCE

description: The early Neolithic of the western Mediterranean is represented by a polymorphic set of cultural expressions, traditionally defined by the presence of impressed wares, that developed during the sixth millennium BCE. By tracing the morphological and decorative variability of these ceramic productions, it was possible to outline a model of arrhythmic progression of the Neolithic package diffusion, from east to west, characterized by a continuous renewal of its techno-cultural components.
Within this context, from the beginning of the sixth millennium BCE, Liguria is a particularly representative space of the social and cultural transformations that took place in the western Mediterranean and represents a privileged area for the untangling of the mechanisms of Neolithic diffusion in this area. This research focused on the technological analysis of ceramic production in order to decode the techno-economic systems of the Neolithic groups, through an integrated study, which was structured in two progressive and complementary levels, from infra-site to a regional scale.
Recent excavations at the Arene Candide cave (1997-2012) documented in detail a clear stratigraphic sequence related to the early Neolithic phases, providing new and consistent proxy data. The technological analysis of the ceramic assemblage resulting from these researches allowed for the reconstruction of the pottery production system in relation to the stratigraphic and chronological articulation, highlighting an evolution of technical and stylistic behaviours during the sixth millennium BCE. This led to the elaboration of a diachronic model, articulated in different chrono-cultural horizons, each characterized by specific techno-stylistic markers. The systematic revision of the pottery from the contemporary sites of the region, mainly distributed between the Finalese region and Val Pennavaira, and often neglected due to their absent or unreliable contextual documentation, was also implemented. This revision allowed for the clarification of the chronological and cultural attribution of these ceramic sets, providing new elements for a diachronic reconstruction of settlement dynamics, as well as of the organization and management of the territory during the sixth millennium BCE, and finally revealed cultural interactions with the western Mediterranean basin.
In general, the results obtained by this study increase, both quantitatively and qualitatively, the data relating to the early Neolithic stages of the region, unlocking the informative potential of a holistic approach to the analysis of the ceramic document, even when applied to remarkably fragmentary materials. These new results contribute to the ongoing debate on the complex phenomenon of the neolithization of the western Mediterranean.

description: Silicon carbide (SiC) is an industrially important non-oxide ceramic with an attractive combination of chemical stability, thermal fatigue resistance, high stiffness, and low density. Additionally, production of high toughness, near-net-shape, SiC/SiC composite structures is possible through liquid silicon (Si) melt infiltration into a SiC/carbon porous preform. Owing to a unique combination of properties, these composites have gained interest for applications such as gas turbines, heat shields, and automotive parts. However, dissolution of SiC into pure liquid Si is possible during infiltration leading to undesirable and inconsistent mechanical properties. Understanding the physicochemical interactions between SiC and Si-bearing liquids is necessary to mitigate the dissolution of SiC during the infiltration process. An experimental high-temperature apparatus was constructed to allow for precise vertical translation and rotation of SiC samples under a controlled atmosphere. Utilizing the apparatus, single crystal SiC wafers were immersed and rotated in Si melts of varying compositions to observe the rate-controlling mechanisms for dissolution. Careful attention was placed on maintaining precise melt composition allowing only fused silica and SiC to come in contact with the Si melts. Experimental results confirmed the rate controlling mechanism at 1450°C as being C transport away from the SiC/Si interface for the dissolution of single crystal 4H SiC in high?purity liquid Si. Values for the effective C solubility in high-purity Si melts were found to be between 66 and 119 ppmw, and effective diffusion coefficients for C in high-purity liquid Si were found to be between 8.1x10-6 and 1.3x10-4 cm2 /s. Similar experiments rotating single crystal 4H SiC wafers in 3 wt% B – containing Si melts were performed with the rate-controlling mechanism found to also be carbon transport away from the reaction interface. The effective C solubility in 3 wt% B- containing Si melts was found to be 94-173 ppmw and effective diffusion coefficients for C in 3 wt% B- containing Si liquid were found to be between 4.7x10-6 and 2.1x10-4 cm2 /s. Static immersion was also conducted on polycrystalline SiC samples prepared via hot pressing. Immersion studies revealed a relatively slow weight loss regime at short immersion times followed by an increased weight loss regime resulting from SiC grain fallout. Increased dissolution of polycrystalline SiC samples was observed after immersion in Si melts containing elements known to increase the C solubility in liquid Si and decreased dissolution was observed after immersion in Si melts containing elements known to decrease C solubility.
