description: Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an important and recognized risk factor for tuberculosis (TB). India is a high TB burden country along with an increased prevalence of diabetes in its population. The current study aimed to study the diagnostic profile and treatment outcomes of tuberculosis in diabetics (TBDM) as compared to that in non-diabetics. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis from clinical records of TB patients diagnosed between November 2016 to April 2018 (eighteen months) was carried out in a tertiary care teaching institute. Results : Out of a total 1592 TB patients diagnosed during the study period, 66 (4.15 %) patients were diabetics. Amongst them, 49 patients had declared outcomes and were analyzed further. 98 TB patients without diabetes, diagnosed during the same period, were selected randomly in 1:2 ratio as the control group. There were 26(53%) microbiologically confirmed TB patients and 23(47%) clinically diagnosed TB cases among diabetics as compared to 43(43.87%) microbiologically confirmed TB patients and 55(56.12%) clinically diagnosed TB cases among non-diabetics. There were 41(83.63%) pulmonary and 8(16.32%) extra- pulmonary TB cases among diabetics as compared to 56 (57.14%) pulmonary and 41(42.85%) extra-pulmonary TB cases among non-diabetics. Among diabetics, 39 (79.59%) patients were newly diagnosed and 10(20.40%) patients were retreatment cases of TB whereas 80(81.63 %) patients were newly diagnosed and 18(18.36 %) patients were retreatment cases of TB among non- diabetics. Poor treatment outcome of TB was seen in 14 (28.57%) diabetics as compared to 10(10.2%) non-diabetics. Discussion: Diabetics are at an increased risk of developing pulmonary TB. TB is associated with poor treatment outcome in diabetics. Conclusion: A robust screening of diabetics for TB is imperative and the healthcare provider must be well aware of the diagnostic spectrum and possible poor treatment outcomes of TB in these patients.

description: We discuss a fundamentally new approach for the measurement of electric (E) fields that will lead to the development of a broadband, direct SI-traceable, compact, self-calibrating E-field probe (sensor). This approach is based on the interaction of radio frequency (RF) fields with alkali atoms excited to Rydberg states. The RF field causes an energy splitting of the Rydberg states via the Autler-Townes effect and we detect the splitting via electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). In effect, alkali atoms placed in a vapor cell act like an RF-to-optical transducer, converting an RF E-field strength measurement to an optical frequency measurement. We demonstrate the broadband nature of this approach by showing that one small vapor cell can be used to measure E-field strengths over a wide range of frequencies: 1 GHz to 500 GHz. The technique is validated by comparing experimental data to both numerical simulations and far-field calculations for various frequencies. We also discuss various applications, including: a direct traceable measurement, the ability to measure both weak and strong field strengths, compact form factors of the probe, and sub-wavelength imaging and field mapping.

description: Several intracellular pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, damage endomembranes to access the cytosol and subvert innate immune responses. The host counteracts endomembrane damage by recruiting repair machineries that retain the pathogen inside the vacuole. Here, we show that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi protein oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and its Dictyostelium discoideum homolog OSBP8 are recruited to the Mycobacterium-containing vacuole (MCV) dependent on the presence of the ESX-1 secretion system, suggesting that their mobilization is associated with membrane damage. Lack of OSBP8 causes a hyperaccumulation of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) on the MCV and decreased cell viability. OSBP8-depleted cells had reduced lysosomal and degradative capabilities of their vacuoles that favored mycobacterial growth. In agreement with a potential role of OSBP8 in membrane repair, human macrophages infected with M. tuberculosis recruited OSBP in an ESX-1-dependent manner. These findings identified an ER-dependent repair mechanism for restoring MCVs in which OSBP8 functions to equilibrate PI4P levels on damaged membranes. IMPORTANCE Tuberculosis still remains a global burden and is one of the top infectious diseases from a single pathogen. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent, has perfected many ways to replicate and persist within its host. While mycobacteria induce vacuole damage to evade the toxic environment and eventually escape into the cytosol, the host recruits repair machineries to restore the MCV membrane. However, how lipids are delivered for membrane repair is poorly understood. Using advanced fluorescence imaging and volumetric correlative approaches, we demonstrate that this involves the recruitment of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi lipid transfer protein OSBP8 in the Dictyostelium discoideum/Mycobacterium marinum system. Strikingly, depletion of OSBP8 affects lysosomal function accelerating mycobacterial growth. This indicates that an ER-dependent repair pathway constitutes a host defense mechanism against intracellular pathogens such as M. tuberculosis.

description: A reconstruction algorithm has been developed to capitalize on advances in Cherenkov technology for reactor antineutrino detection. Large gadolinium-doped water (Gd-H$_2$O) Cherenkov detectors are a developing technology which use Gd loading to increase the visibility of the neutrons produced in inverse beta decay (IBD) interactions, which produce positron-neutron pairs coincident in time and space. In this paper, we describe the reconstruction which uses the combined light from both events in an IBD pair to accurately reconstruct the interaction vertex. The algorithm has been applied to the reconstruction of reactor antineutrinos in Gd-H$_2$O and in Gd-doped water-based liquid scintillator (Gd-WbLS), an advanced detector medium which is also currently in development. Compared to a single-event reconstruction, the combined reconstruction improves vertex resolution for reactor IBD positrons by up to a factor of 4.5 at the lowest energies. IBD-neutron vertex resolution was found to improve by more than 30% in most instances. Powerful background rejection with the coincidence reconstruction can be achieved by requiring a minimum quality of fit. This was found to reject up to 94% of accidental coincidences of uncorrelated background events, while retaining at least 97.5% of the IBD signal pairs.

description: In this note we discuss the potential application of antineutrino monitoring to the Iranian heavy water reactor at Arak, the IR-40, as a non-proliferation measure. We demonstrate that an above ground detector positioned right outside the IR-40 reactor building could meet and in some cases significantly exceed the verification goals identified by IAEA for plutonium production or diversion from declared inventories. In addition to monitoring the reactor during operation, observing antineutrino emissions from long-lived fission products could also allow monitoring the reactor when it is shutdown. Antineutrino monitoring could also be used to distinguish different levels of fuel enrichment. Most importantly, these capabilities would not require a complete reactor operational history and could provide a means to re-establish continuity of knowledge in safeguards conclusions should this become necessary.

description: More than 200 years after von Humboldt's pioneering work on the treeline, our understanding of the cold distribution limit of upright plant growth is still incomplete. Here, we use wood anatomical techniques to estimate the degree of stem cell wall lignification in 1770 plant species from six continents. Contrary to the frequent belief that small plants are less lignified, we show that cell wall lignification in 'woody' herbs varies considerably. Although trees and shrubs always exhibit lignified cell walls in their upright stems, small plants above the treeline may contain less lignin. Our findings suggest that extremely cold growing season temperatures can reduce the ability of plants to lignify their secondary cell walls. Corroborating experimental and observational evidence, this study proposes to revisit existing theories about the thermal distribution limit of upright plant growth and to consider biochemical and biomechanical factors for explaining the global treeline position.

description: Abstract We propose a new mechanism that adapts to string theory a perturbative method for stabilizing moduli without leaving the domain of perturbative control, thereby evading the ‘Dine-Seiberg’ problem. The only required nonperturbative information comes from the standard renormalization-group resummation of leading logarithms that allow us simultaneously to work to a fixed order in the perturbative parameter α and to all orders in α ln τ where τ is a large extra-dimensional modulus. The resulting potential is naturally minimized for moduli of order τ ~ e1/α and so can be exponentially large given $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O (10) input parameters. The mechanism relies on accidental low-energy scaling symmetries known to be generic and so is robust against UV details. The resulting compactifications generically break supersymmetry and 4D de Sitter solutions are relatively easy to achieve without additional uplifting. Variations on the theme lead to inflationary scenarios for which the size of the stabilized moduli differ significantly before and after inflation and so provide a dynamical mechanism whereby inflationary scales are much larger than late-time physical (e.g. supersymmetry breaking) scales, with this hierarchy contingent on past cosmic evolution with the inflaton playing a secondary late-time role as a relaxation field. We apply this formalism to warped D3-$$ \overline{\mathrm{D}3} $$ D 3 ¯ inflation using non-linearly realized supersymmetry to describe the antibrane tension and the Coulomb interaction, and show how doing so our perturbative modulus stabilization mechanism evades the η-problem that usually plagues this scenario. We speculate about the relevance of our formalism to tachyon condensation at later stages of brane-antibrane annihilation.

description: We analyze the measured spectra of $π^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $p$($\bar p$) in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt {s}$ = 0.9, 2.76 and 7 TeV, in the light of blast-wave model to extract the transverse radial flow velocity and kinetic temperature at freeze-out for the system formed in $pp$ collisions. The dependency of the blast-wave parameters on average charged particle multiplicity of event sample or the `centrality' of collisions has been studied and compared with results of similar analysis in nucleus-nucleus ($AA$) and proton-nucleus ($pA$) collisions. We analyze the spectra of $K_{s}^0$, $Λ$($\bar Λ$) and $Ξ^-$ also to see the dependence of blast-wave description on the species of produced particles. Within the framework of the blast-wave model, the study reveals indication of collective behavior for high-multiplicity events in $pp$ collisions at LHC. Strong transverse radial flow in high multiplicity $pp$ collisions and its comparison with that in $pA$ and $AA$ collisions match with predictions from a very recent theoretical work [Shuryak and Zahed 2013 arXiv:1301.4470] that addresses the conditions for applicability of hydrodynamics in $pp$ and $pA$ collisions.

description: Ground-based gravitational wave detectors are sensitive to a narrow range of frequencies, effectively taking a snapshot of merging compact-object binary dynamics just before merger. We demonstrate that by adopting analysis parameters that naturally characterize this 'picture', the physical parameters of the system can be extracted more efficiently from the gravitational wave data, and interpreted more easily. We assess the performance of MCMC parameter estimation in this physically intuitive coordinate system, defined by (a) a frame anchored on the binary's spins and orbital angular momentum and (b) a time at which the detectors are most sensitive to the binary's gravitational wave emission. Using anticipated noise curves for the advanced-generation LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave detectors, we find that this careful choice of reference frame and reference time significantly improves parameter estimation efficiency for BNS, NS-BH, and BBH signals.

description: Deriving a well-constrained differential emission measure (DEM) distribution for solar flares has historically been difficult, primarily because no single instrument is sensitive to the full range of coronal temperatures observed in flares, from $\lesssim$2 to $\gtrsim$50 MK. We present a new technique, combining extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectra from the EUV Variability Experiment (EVE) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory with X-ray spectra from the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI), to derive, for the first time, a self-consistent, well-constrained DEM for jointly-observed solar flares. EVE is sensitive to ~2-25 MK thermal plasma emission, and RHESSI to $\gtrsim$10 MK; together, the two instruments cover the full range of flare coronal plasma temperatures. We have validated the new technique on artificial test data, and apply it to two X-class flares from solar cycle 24 to determine the flare DEM and its temporal evolution; the constraints on the thermal emission derived from the EVE data also constrain the low-energy cutoff of the non-thermal electrons, a crucial parameter for flare energetics. The DEM analysis can also be used to predict the soft X-ray flux in the poorly-observed ~0.4-5 nm range, with important applications for geospace science.

title: Legislative Duration in the European Union: A Policy Complexity Approach to the Analysis of Legislative Efficiency
Creators: name: Hobmaier, Tobias
Publisher: name: Universitätsbibliothek der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München
Year: 2023

description: The European Union must be decisive, efficient, and responsive with its legislative decision-making, especially during crises, to avoid losing legitimacy, acknowledgement by its populace, and to fend off looming threats of disintegration endeavors by Eurosceptics. Previous research on the EU’s policymaking efficiency has focused on the influence of qualified majority voting, the use of directives, political conflict in the Council and the impact of the eastern enlargement or the treaties on the legislative duration. Until very recently, the central subject of this research field, namely the policy proposals themselves, has been left unattended. Now, this thesis paper steps in to close the research gap of how efficiently differently complex policy proposals are processed in interaction with legal, institutional, and political variables. For the analysis, the Euplex dataset is employed and survival analytical methods, such as Cox Proportional Hazards models with time-varying covariates and post-estimation survival curves building on Cox regressions are applied. The thesis clearly shows that regulations, QMV and the special legislative procedure are better suited to process both simple and complex policy proposals than their counterparts and that political conflict in the Council heavily influences the EU’s ability to process simple and complex legislation.

description: In this Letter, we experimentally investigate the collapse of initially dry granular media into water and the subsequent impulse waves. We systematically characterize the influence of the slope angle and the granular material on the initial amplitude of the generated leading wave and the evolution of its amplitude during the propagation. The experiments show that whereas the evolution of the leading wave during the propagation is well predicted by a solution of the linearized Korteweg-de Vries equation, the generation of the wave is more complicated to describe. Our results suggest that the internal properties of the granular media and the interplay with the surrounding fluid are important parameters for the generation of waves at low velocity impacts. Moreover, the amplitude of the leading wave reaches a maximum value at large slope angle. The runout distance of the collapse is also shown to be smaller in the presence of water than under totally dry conditions. This study provides a first insight into tsunamis generated by subaerial landslides at low Froude number.

description: Ordinal patterns serve as a robust symbolic transformation technique, enabling the unveiling of latent dynamics within time series data. This methodology involves constructing histograms of patterns, followed by the calculation of both entropy and statistical complexity—an avenue yet to be fully understood in terms of its statistical properties. While asymptotic results can be derived by assuming a multinomial distribution for histogram proportions, the challenge emerges from the non-independence present in the sequence of ordinal patterns. Consequently, the direct application of the multinomial assumption is questionable. This study focuses on the computation of the asymptotic distribution of permutation entropy, considering the inherent patterns’ correlation structure. Furthermore, the research delves into a comparative analysis, pitting this distribution against the entropy derived from a multinomial law. We present simulation algorithms for sampling time series with prescribed histograms of patterns and transition probabilities between them. Through this analysis, we better understand the intricacies of ordinal patterns and their statistical attributes.

description: We study the phenomenology of dark matter in the Littlest Higgs model with T-parity after the discovery of Higgs boson. We analyze the relic abundance of dark matter, focusing on the effects of coannihilaitons with T-odd fermions. After determining the parameter space that predicts the correct relic abundance measured by WMAP and Planck collaborations, we evaluate the elastic scattering cross section between dark matter and nucleon. In comparison with experimental results, we find that the lower mass of dark matter is constrained mildly by LUX 2013 while the future XENON experiment has potential to explore most of the parameter space for both T-odd lepton and T-odd quark coannihilation scenarios. We also study the collider signatures of T-odd fermion pair production at the LHC. Even though the production cross sections are large, it turns out very challenging to search for these T-odd fermions directly at the collider because the visible charged leptons or jets are very soft. Furthermore, we show that, with an extra hard jet radiated out from the initial state, the T-odd quark pair production can contribute significantly to mono-jet plus missing energy search at the LHC.

description: The paper on the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) marks the inception of a series consisting of five papers, crafted in collaboration with the Brussels-based think tank ECIPE. In each paper we will evaluate the costs arising from the extra-territorial impact of EU internal market regulations on neighbouring regions engaging in trade with the EU. Central to our exploration is the proposition of means to alleviate this regulatory burden for the neighbourhood. Our aim is to provide a sharper perspective on the implications of the “Brussels Effect” on the EU’s neighbourhood during this era of escalating geopolitical tensions.
Accordingly, the CBAM paper explores how countries in the EU’s neighbourhood are being impacted by the CBAM as well as how the EU can design and introduce measures to support these countries in their efforts to implement adjustment policies to mitigate the CBAM’s negative consequences on their trade and welfare.
The countries analysed include the Western Balkans (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Kosovo) and Turkey, the Eastern Partnership (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine), and the Southern Neighbourhood (Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, and Tunisia).

description: Background: Warfarin was used for decades to prevent stroke in high risk AF patients, recent guidelines and published data is recommending use of NOACs like Rivaroxaban as an alternative to Warfarin, Its use is increasing world over because of its predictable action, less food and drug interaction and no need of monitoring for dose adjustments, considering these facts we planned to conduct a study to see the frequency of use of Rivaroxaban in our local population of AF patients with risk of stroke calculated by CHA2DS2-VASc score.Method: This cross-sectional study was done at National Institute of Cardiovascular disease (NICVD) from May 2017 to September 2017 included 137 non-valvular AF patients with high risk of stroke calculated by applying CHA2DS2-VASc score more than or equal to 2. Clinical details and information about anticoagulant medications prescribed to them was also obtained. SPSS 19 was used for the analysis, descriptive statistics such as mean ±SD, frequency and percentages were calculated. Z-test, t-test, and chi-square test were used for the assessment and comparison of data. Two sided p-value of 0.05 was considered for statistical significance. Results: Total 137 patient were included 50.4% (69) were male, 104 (75.91%) out of 137 were on Anticoagulant therapy, with 86 (62.77%) were on Warfarin and only 18 (13.14%) were taking Rivaroxaban. Conclusion: Our study showed very small percentage of non valvular AF patients with risk of stroke were prescribed Rivaroxaban. It’s important to update our treating Physicians about this novel agent which is shown to be equally effective and safe in comparison to warfarin, and easy to prescribe without monitoring to reduce stroke risk.

description: In two-phase flow, the presence of inter-phasal surface - the interface - causes additional terms to appear in LES formulation. Those terms were ignored in contemporary works, for the lack of model and because the authors expected them to be of negligible influence. However, it has been recently shown by a priori DNS simulations that the negligibility assumption can be challenged. In the present work, a model for one of the sub-grid two-phase specific terms is proposed, using deconvolution of the velocity field and advection of the interface using that field. Using the model, the term can be included into LES. A brief presentation of the model is followed by numerical tests that assess the model's performance by comparison with a priori DNS results

description: Abstract: Musculoskeletal pain is the most common complaint presented to the health practitioner. It is well-known that untreated or under-treated pain can have a significant negative impact on an individual’s quality of life (QoL). Objectives: The current study aimed to assess the clinical response of Nuberol Forte® (paracetamol 650 mg + orphenadrine 50 mg) to musculoskeletal pain in routine Pakistani practice and its impact on improving the patient’s QoL. Methods: A prospective, observational multicenter study (NFORT-EFFECT: Safety & Efficacy of Nuberol Forte in Pain Management). Three hundred ninety-nine patients with known prescreened musculoskeletal pain were recruited from 10 major healthcare facilities across six (6) major cities of Pakistan, as per the inclusion/exclusion criteria. After the baseline visit (Visit 1), the patients were followed up one to two weeks (Visit 2) after the treatment as per the physician's discretion. Data were collected using the Case Report Form (CRF) designed for the study, and adverse events (AEs) were also monitored to assess drug safety. Pain intensity was assessed through a visual analog scale (VAS), and QoL was assessed using the Muscle and Joint Measure (MJM) scale. Results: Out of 399 enrolled patients, 49.4% were males and 50.6% were females with a mean age of 47.24 ± 14.20 years. Most patients were presented with knee osteoarthritis (OA), i.e., 148 (38%), followed by backache 70 (18.2%). A significant reduction in the mean pain score was observed after treatment with the combination of paracetamol and orphenadrine (p<0.05). Furthermore, an overall improvement in the patient’s QoL was also observed. During the study, only 10 patients reported mild adverse events (AEs), namely, dryness of the mouth, dizziness, gastric irritation, tachycardia, restlessness, etc. Conclusion: The combination of paracetamol and orphenadrine (Nuberol Forte) exhibited effective pain management among patients with musculoskeletal conditions and improved their QoL.
On the properties of the interstellar medium in extremely metal-poor blue compact dwarf galaxies: GMOS-IFU spectroscopy and SDSS photometry of the double-knot galaxy HS 2236+1344

description: The main goal of this study is to carry out a spatially resolved investigation of the warm interstellar medium (ISM) in the extremely metal-poor Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD) galaxy HS 2236+1344. Special emphasis is laid on the analysis of the spatial distribution of chemical abundances, emission-line ratios and kinematics of the ISM, and to the recent star-forming activity in this galaxy. This study is based on optical integral field unit spectroscopy data from Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph at the Gemini North telescope and archival Sloan Digital Sky Survey images. The data were obtained in two different positions across the galaxy, obtaining a total 4 arcsec X 8 arcsec field which encompasses most of its ISM. Emission-line maps and broad-band images obtained in this study indicate that HS 2236+1344 hosts three Giant HII regions. Our data also reveal some faint curved features in the BCD periphery that might be due to tidal perturbations or expanding ionized-gas shells. The ISM velocity field shows systematic gradients along the major axis of the BCD, with its south-eastern and north-western half differing by ~80 km/s in their recessional velocity. The Ha and Hb equivalent width distribution in the central part of HS 2236+1344 is consistent with a very young (~3 Myr) burst. Our surface photometry analysis indicates that the ongoing starburst provides ~50% of the total optical emission, similar to other BCDs. It also reveals an underlying lower-surface brightness component with moderately red colors, which suggest that the galaxy has undergone previous star formation. We derive an integrated oxygen abundance of 12+log(O/H)=7.53\pm0.06 and a nitrogen-to-oxygen ratio of log(N/O)=-1.57\pm0.19. Our results are consistent, within the uncertainties, with a homogeneous distribution of oxygen and nitrogen within the ISM of the galaxy. (abridged)

description: Energy spectra and transport properties of armchair nanotubes with curvature induced spin-orbit interaction are investigated thoroughly. The spin-orbit interaction consists of two terms: the first one preserves the spin symmetry in rotating frame, while the second one breaks it. It is found that the both terms are equally important: i)at scattering on the potential step which mimics a long-range potential in the nanotubes; ii)at transport via nanotube quantum dots. It is shown that an armchair nanotube with the first spin-orbit term works as an ideal spin-filter, while the second term produces a parasitic inductance.

description: For two electrically small nonreciprocal scatterers an analytical electromagnetic model of polarizabilities is developed. Both particles are bianisotropic: the so-called Tellegen-omega particle and moving-chiral particle. Analytical results are compared to the full-wave numerical simulations. Both models satisfy to main physical restrictions and leave no doubts in the possibility to realize these particles experimentally. This paper is a necessary step towards applications of nonreciprocal bianisotropic particles such as perfect electromagnetic isolators, twist polarizers, thin-sheet phase shifters, and other devices.

description: Recent work has developed a nonlinear hydrodynamic fluctuation theory for a chain of coupled anharmonic oscillators governing the conserved fields, namely stretch, momentum, and energy. The linear theory yields two propagating sound modes and one diffusing heat mode. In contrast, the nonlinear theory predicts that, at long times, the sound mode correlations satisfy Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) scaling, while the heat mode correlations satisfies Levy-walk scaling. In the present contribution we report on molecular dynamics simulations of Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chains to compute various spatiotemporal correlation functions and compare them with the predictions of the theory. We find very good agreement in many cases, but also some deviations.

description: In this paper, we examine the practice and promises of digital phenotyping. We build on work on the 'data self' to focus on a medical domain in which the value and nature of knowledge and relations with data have been played out with particular persistence, that of Alzheimer's disease research. Drawing on research with researchers and developers, we consider the intersection of hopes and concerns related to both digital tools and Alzheimer's disease using the metaphor of the 'data shadow'. We suggest that as a tool for engaging with the nature of the data self, the shadow is usefully able to capture both the dynamic and distorted nature of data representations, and the unease and concern associated with encounters between individuals or groups and data about them. We then consider what the data shadow 'is' in relation to ageing data subjects, and the nature of the representation of the individual's cognitive state and dementia risk that is produced by digital tools. Second, we consider what the data shadow 'does', through researchers and practitioners' discussions of digital phenotyping practices in the dementia field as alternately empowering, enabling and threatening.

description: The observed temporary dark streaks on some dune slopes on Mars may be due to thin sheets of water (or some other liquid) trickling downhill. This note corrects conceptual errors in a previous paper (Möhlmann and Kereszturi 2010, Icarus 207, 654-658) which affect the velocity profile of such flows, and produce over-estimates of their depths and mass fluxes by factors of almost two.
