subject: Industrial and product design

description: Twice a year over 50 million migratory shorebirds journey across the globe along common routes known as flyways. Throughout their journey, these birds require a number of ‘staging’ sites to locate sufficient food sources and roost during extensive travel periods. Increasing coastal development, disturbance and sea-level rise are impacting the availability of important staging sites, leading to significant declines in important migratory birdlife (Birdlife Australia, 2019).
In response to these loss figures, bird conservation company Birdlife Australia have begun trials providing supplementary (artificial) habitat for migratory shorebirds through a floating roost strategy. Adapted from commercial long-line oyster bags, this strategy currently utilises a product manufactured with materials that risk contributing to micro-plastic accumulation in marine ecosystems. This presents a misalignment to Birdlife’s conservation ethos and demonstrates the need for environmentally optimal design interventions.

In collaboration with conservation science experts from Birdlife Australia, this project seeks to design a next-generation floating roost system; eliminating the need for plastics in favour of alternate (environmentally benign) materials and processes engaging near-site production opportunities. Located within a sustainability framework, this redesign draws upon Industrial Design Engineering and Design for Environment research methods to inform suitable material and redesign considerations. Experimental design research and prototyping illuminate material testing, capabilities and in-context use; while partner interviews, ecosystem management methods and modes of thinking - investigate and underpin the project’s localised, and shorebird conservation-focused design outcome.

This research and informed design outcome aims to expand upon existing climate adaptation strategies through low-impact material and manufacturing possibilities; with hopes to further stimulate biodiversity and sustainability support initiatives, protecting critical wildlife within evolving landscapes.

description: With the introduction of tools like the DLF’s Digitization Cost Calculator, forecasting and fundraising for digitization projects can be achieved with transparency and clarity. However, estimating and articulating the considerable long-term expenses of digital preservation lags behind. The surfeit of digital materials entering cultural heritage institutions introduce significant costs that rapidly outstrip the costs of digitization, and these costs are challenging to represent clearly at the outset of a project–either due to obscure technical details, the array of pricing options for storage and preservation systems, and the impossibility of predicting the price of "keeping it forever." In our library, we are in the early stages of developing a cost model for digital preservation systems loosely aligned to the costs of systems and activities within the NDSA Levels of Digital Preservation framework. This work is intended to articulate the ongoing costs of desirable and essential digital curation activities to digital project stakeholders, as well as administrators–with the ultimate goal of sustainable funding for responsible digital preservation. Our "Digital Preservation Cost Calculator" has been successfully used to estimate project expenditures in preparation for grant applications and philanthropic financing requests.We are exploring prospective features that can transition this tool from a local budgeting tool to a full-fledged digital preservation application. This paper will introduce our use case and requirements, current development challenges, and propose a prospective roadmap and options for community engagement

description: Public administration is classified into a specific organizational form that follows the development of all civilizations. Today, more than ever, we deal with creating a new model of public administration. The reform of public administration intends to achieve the model adjusted to the needs of society, based on lawful solutions, and real conditions. The EU integration process puts a pressure on public administration to deliver better service, with more and more demands to increase the skills of employees, to make performance of duties and tasks more effective, adhering to the principles of good governance.
This paper presents a study of administrative body's organizational culture, based on the selected standpoint that the organizational culture is defined as a set of values, norms and beliefs in which the servants in administrative body share the same opinion. This brought ten characteristic values that can be shaped into the mission of observed local self-government (public administration) unit. We tried to estimate through this research how civil servants perceive these ten values, and whether they like it or not.

description: For achieving business success and sustainability, companies should increase their focus on aligning business strategy with information technology (IT) governance. Consequently, there has been an increase of interest in IT governance adoption and the usage of COBIT framework. In order to investigate the reasons, ways and differences of COBIT framework implementation in financial sector companies, we have conducted a longitudinal research in form of case studies within two banks and two insurance companies. The results reveal an increase in COBIT maturity levels for all observed companies during the five year period, but with significant differences in the level and speed of its adoption. This research indicate the importance of true strategic IT and business alignment for increasing IT governance maturity and opportunities for business model innovation, which makes the practical contribution of the paper.

subject: Experimental methods in fluid flow, heat and mass transfer

description: The miniaturisation of electronic devices has resulted in the need for improved micro- and nanoscale heat transfer solutions. Various cooling techniques have been analysed in recent years, and the data suggests that forced convective and spray liquid cooling will play a crucial role in thermal management practices. Due to their unique properties, ferrofluids, known as magnetite nanofluids, have garnered interest as potential heat transfer solutions. These suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles in a liquid carrier can respond to external magnetic fields, altering their thermal properties and behaviour. This makes ferrofluids an attractive option for heat transfer, as they can be controlled and manipulated in ways impossible with conventional liquids. Based on this information, this thesis is divided into two main areas: convective heat transfer and droplet impingement using a ferrofluid. The goal is to understand the convective heat transfer characteristics of ferrofluids in a microchannel under a magnetic field and analyse the heat transfer of the ferrofluid droplets. Simulations and experimental studies have been used to determine the heat transfer performance of ferrofluids in a microchannel under different external magnetic fields. The impact of magnetic fields on the heat transfer characteristics of the ferrofluid droplets will be studied under microscale conditions. The droplets’ size and their impingement velocity will be controlled to ensure consistent conditions. The temperature of the solid surface has been measured to determine the heat transfer performance of the ferrofluid droplets.

The results of this research provide insight into the impact of magnetic fields on the heat transfer characteristics of ferrofluids under microscale conditions. This information will be helpful for engineers and researchers in the field of thermal management, as it will provide a foundation for the design of more effective and efficient cooling systems for electronic devices.

description: The increasing demands in building and civil engineering – with regard to the growing amount of legal requirements and the needs of a flexible usage of the building - requires an optimisation of all processes during the planning and construction phases. This aim can be only reached by transferring of innovative information and communication technologies in the field of cooperation of all partners in a building project. In this article the enhancement of the existing planning processes based on an improved information management is introduced. Since the late 90ies the availability of hardware and software infrastructures for a networkbased cooperation, e.g. email, in small and middle-sized companies increased the problems of an unstructured communication in the planning and construction processes. These problems have not been solved by the usage of the upcoming project communication systems either, which are often used as a simple medium for data transfer. Because of the easy way of distributing documents to all planning partners a huge amount of files and subsequent versions can be stored so that the planners often have to scope with an information overflow. The underlying hierarchical structures based on simple files stored in tree views are not sufficient for an adequate representation of the different specific views of the planners and the management of relationships between the three information domains building structure, costs and time schedules. ..

description: Piezoelectric resonators based on langasite (LGS) crystals has been employed in numerous sensing applications including pressure, gas and liquid. However, the inherent flaw of LGS related to spurious modes often reduces the performance of such resonators, especially at higher temperatures. This thesis investigates novel non-uniform electrode designs and materials to suppress the spurious modes, and develop robust LGS resonators that can operate at high temperatures with minimal damage. The overall structure involves the systematic design, development and characterization of these resonators for harsh environmental conditions.

Subjects: public service design; institutional design; FOCJ; microeconomic FOCJ models; functional reform; territorial reform

description: One of the newer suggestions for the design of public economic units refers to Functional Overlapping Competing Jurisdictions (FOCJs), which are instruments to shape cooperation of jurisdictions, e.g. municipalities.
The study clarifies important types of FOCJ. It concentrates on FOCJs where the members are municipalities. How useful such FOCJs are for designing public services depends on the composition of members, their decision concept of cooperation, the task of the FOCJ, the resources devoted to the FOCJ and the development phase of the FOCJ. For better understanding of those determinants, a microeconomic theory is needed. Therefore, the authors formulate models of FOCJ establishment, FOCJ operation and FOCJ competition for clients and members. The authors present already existing models and extensions of them based on the models in public choice and location theory, cooperation and game theory, and market theory to cover oligopolistic situations.

description: At present the ECB is striving, through its so-called zero interest rate policy, to avoid deflationary developments because, as past experience shows, a further price decay would be expected to lead to bankruptcies and be a strain on the real economy. Complementary quantitative easing (QE) and the resulting drop in returns on bought up securities will hopefully lead to the commercial banks giving more credits to small and medium-sized enterprises which are unable to, or have difficulty in financing themselves through bonds. Reducing the margin between interest income and refinancing costs to the lowest level possible has caused serious problems for credit institutions. The same applies, due to the reduced interest rates on loans, to the insurance companies and pension funds, which tend to invest conservatively. — Zero interest rate policy, which in itself is a contradiction of the principles of a market economy, should be relinquished as soon as possible. A return to a monetary policy which does not lead to misallocation and structural distortions is urgently necessary.

GENETICS: Extra Chromosomal Inheritance
Creators: name: Sanyal, Tanmay
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: 1. Overview

Focuses on the concept of extra chromosomal inheritance, also known as cytoplasmic inheritance.

Key topics include introduction, types, definitions, importance, and roles of extrachromosomal genes.

2. Introduction

Extranuclear inheritance deviates from Mendelian principles and involves genetic influences outside the nuclear DNA.

Genes responsible for this type of inheritance are located in cytoplasmic organelles like chloroplasts and mitochondria.

Key Forms:

Organelle heredity (via mitochondria or chloroplasts, usually maternal).

Infectious heredity (symbiotic or parasitic associations).

Maternal effect (phenotypic influence determined by maternal genotype).

3. Types of Extrachromosomal Inheritance

Cytoplasmic Inheritance: Traits inherited via the cytoplasm.

Mitochondrial Inheritance: Uniparental, typically maternal.

Chloroplast Inheritance: Similar to mitochondria.

Infectious Particles: Includes entities like kappa particles in Paramecium.

Episome and Plasmid: Non-nuclear DNA influencing phenotypic traits.

4. Kappa Particles in Paramecium

Extensively studied by T. M. Sonneborn.

Killer Strain: Contains kappa particles, producing a toxic substance (paramecin).

Sensitive Strain: Lacks kappa particles, does not produce paramecin.

Transmission involves cytoplasmic bridges during rare conjugation, unlike normal conjugation.

5. Human Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)

First part of the human genome sequenced, comprising 16,569 base pairs encoding 13 proteins, rRNA, and tRNA.

Distinct from nuclear DNA due to its maternal inheritance pattern and faster evolution.

Functional Insights:

Encodes key components of the mitochondrial machinery.

Mutations in mtDNA are linked to diseases like Parkinson's, diabetes, and Alzheimer's.

6. Mitochondrial Inheritance

Primarily maternal as the ovum contributes the cytoplasm during fertilization.

Disorders related to mtDNA mutations are rarely transmitted by males.

Mutations affect high-energy-demand tissues, leading to syndromes like:

Leigh syndrome

Progressive external ophthalmoplegia

Exercise-induced muscle pain

7. Key Observations

Extrachromosomal inheritance is distinct in its maternal inheritance pattern and deviation from nuclear gene mapping.

Understanding mtDNA and its inheritance sheds light on evolutionary biology and medical genetics.

8. Conclusion

Extrachromosomal inheritance highlights the genetic contributions beyond nuclear DNA.

The killer trait in Paramecium and mtDNA inheritance in humans exemplify the diverse applications of this concept.

description: We live under the influence of natural cycles caused by the rotation of our planet and its revolution around the sun. The nature of our nearest star is also subject to cyclical change. This article presents a study of a correlation between sunspot cycles and foreign tourists arrivals in Slovenia, based on historical data between sunspot cycles and sea salt production in Slovenia’s Municipality of Piran during the Maunder Minimum period (1645–1715). The production of salt by the solar evaporation of brine in salt pans and tourist industry are seasonal economic activities that are affected by changes to the weather. The paper looks at sea salt production in Piran during a particular period in the past. The repetition of the sea salt production in the past is not possible. For this reason, the study uses mathematical tools and an additional case study, which analyses arrivals of foreign tourists to Slovenia over the past 65 years (1948–2012). The study has two purposes: to identify a linear correlation coefficient, which provides evidence of a correlation between arrivals of foreign tourists to Slovenia and sunspot cycles and to develop a causal loop diagram (CLD) or so called qualitative model of a complex tourism system, which shows the interdependency of sunspot cycles, tourism system, and quality of life.

description: Tracked medical ultrasound allows for cost-effective and radiation-free imaging of anatomy featuring a very high spatial resolution. To overcome the limitations of the small field-of-view, sonographers can acquire multiple adjacent sweeps and compound them into a single volumetric representation. However, due to the inherent local and non-uniform compression of the underlying anatomy (caused by the ultrasound probe) the adjacent sweeps often exhibit poor alignment and discontinuities. We propose a novel decompression model to compensate for probe pressure related artifacts. It incorporates domain knowledge of the global acquisition pattern for regularization and allows for seamless stitching of multiple overlapping 3D freehand sweeps into one volume. The resulting extended field-of-view visualization provides the clinician with spatial context so that the relationship between individual features are easier to understand. Our experiments show that the resulting extended field-of-view reconstructions have a superior image quality in terms of alignment and continuity of the visible anatomy compared to the original acquisitions. Comparison to ground truth MRI data demonstrates the plausibility of our non-rigid decompression model.

description: In this paper we introduce a novel augmented-reality (AR) system for the sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy. The AR system consists of a cubic recording device with integrated stereo near-infrared (NIR) and stereo color cameras, an head mounted display (HMD) for visualizing the SLN information directly into the physicians view and a controlling software application. The labeling of the SLN is achieved using the fluorescent dye indocyanine green (ICG). The dye accumulates in the SLN where it is excited to fluorescence by applying infrared light. The fluorescence is recorded from two directions by the NIR stereo cameras using appropriate filters. Applying the known rigid camera geometry, an ICG depth map can be generated from the camera images, thus creating a live 3D representation of the SLN. The representation is then superimposed to the physicians field of view, by applying a series of coordinate system transformations, that are determined in four separate system calibration steps. To compensate for the head motion, the recording systems is continuously tracked by a single camera on the HMD using fiducial markers. Because the system does not require additional monitors, the physicians attention is kept solely on the operation site. This can potentially decrease the intervention time and render the procedure safer for the patient.

description: Motivated by the potential of holographic augmented reality (AR) to offer an immersive 3D appreciation of morphology and anatomy, the purpose of this work is to develop and assess an interface for image-based planning of prostate interventions with a head-mounted display (HMD). The computational system is a data and command pipeline that links a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner/data and the operator, that includes modules dedicated to image processing and segmentation, structure rendering, trajectory planning and spatial co-registration. The interface was developed with the Unity3D Engine (C#) and deployed and tested on a HoloLens HMD. For ergonomics in the surgical suite, the system was endowed with hands-free interactive manipulation of images and the holographic scene via hand gestures and voice commands. The system was tested in silico using MRI and ultrasound datasets of prostate phantoms. The holographic AR scene rendered by the HoloLens HMD was subjectively found superior to desktop-based volume or 3D rendering with regard to structure detection and appreciation of spatial relationships, planning access paths and manual co-registration of MRI and Ultrasound. By inspecting the virtual trajectory superimposed to rendered structures and MR images, the operator observes collisions of the needle path with vital structures (e.g. urethra) and adjusts accordingly. Holographic AR interfacing with wireless HMD endowed with hands-free gesture and voice control is a promising technology. Studies need to systematically assess the clinical merit of such systems and needed functionalities.

description: Computer-Aided-Diagnosis (CAD) systems supporting the diagnostic process are widespread in radiology. Digital Pathology is still behind in the introduction of such solutions. Several studies investigated pathologists' behavior but only a few aimed to improve the diagnostic and report process with novel applications. In this work we designed and implemented a first protocol-based CAD viewer supported by visual analytics. The system targets the optimization of the diagnostic workflow in breast cancer diagnosis by means of three image analysis features that belong to the standard grading system (Nottingham Histologic Grade). A pathologist's routine was tracked during the examination of breast cancer tissue slides and diagnostic traces were analyzed from a qualitative perspective. Accordingly, a set of generic requirements was elicited to define the design and the implementation of the CAD-Viewer. A first qualitative evaluation conducted with five pathologists shows that the interface suffices the diagnostic workflow and diminishes the manual effort. We present promising evidence of the usefulness of our CAD-viewer and opportunities for its extension and integration in clinical practice. As a conclusion, the findings demonstrate that it is feasibile to optimize the Nottingham Grading workflow and, generally, the histological diagnosis by integrating computational pathology data with visual analytics techniques.

description: User studies are often required in biomedical visualization application papers in order to provide evidence for the utility of the presented approach. An important aspect is how well depth information can be perceived, as depth encoding is important to enable an understandable representation of complex data. Unfortunately, in practice there is often little time available to perform such studies, and setting up and conducting user studies may be labor-intensive. In addition, it can be challenging to reach enough participants to support the contribution claims of the paper. In this paper, we propose a system that allows biomedical visualization researchers to quickly generate perceptual task-based user studies for novel surface visualizations, and to perform the resulting experiment via a web interface. This approach helps to reduce effort in the setup of user studies themselves, and at the same time leverages a web-based approach that can help researchers attract more participants to their study. We demonstrate our system using the specific application of depth judgment tasks to evaluate vascular surface visualizations, since there is a lot of recent interest in this area. However, the system is also generally applicable for conducting other task-based user studies in biomedical visualization.
