title: The Reaction of Some Sodium Salts of Fatty Acids and Benzoic Acid With α-Bromobenzyl Cyanide
Creators: name: Perkins, Richard W.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1953

description: Fife and O'Shaughnessy have made a serices of di-esters by allowing the sodium salts of various fatty acids to react with ethyl monochloracetate according to the following equation:
RCO2 Na + ClCH2 CO2 C2 H5  -----------> RCO2CH2CO2 C2 H5  + NaCL
The mechanism of the reaction appears to be ionic and to involve the attack of an RCO2- ion on the carbon atom to which the chlorine atom is attached. As the RCO2- approaches this carbon atom the chlorine atom moves away and leaves as a chloride ion. This reaction appears to be similar to the Williamson synthesis of ethers:

description: Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) at 5 K in B-fields up to 7 T, we investigate the local density of states of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) created by Cs adsorption on p-type InSb(110). The 2DES, which in contrast to previous STS studies exhibits a 2D Fermi level, shows standing waves at B = 0 T with corrugations decreasing with energy and with wave numbers in accordance with theory. In magnetic field percolating drift states are observed within the disorder broadened Landau levels. Due to the large electric field perpendicular to the surface, a beating pattern of the Landau levels is found and explained quantitatively by Rashba spin splitting within the lowest 2DES subband. The Rashba splitting does not contribute significantly to the standing wave patterns in accordance with theory.

description: For more than 50 years the Delta N gamma form factors have been studied experimentally, theoretically, and phenomenologically. Although there has been substantial progress in understanding their behavior, there remains much work to be done. A major tool used in many investigations is the Jones-Scadron Delta rest frame parametrization of the three Delta N gamma form factors. We point out that many studies utilizing this parametrization may not account for Wigner rotations and the consequent helicity mixing that ensues when the Delta is not at rest.

description: Molybdenum may function as a catalyst in promoting and controlling some of the complex chemical reactions that go on in living systems. The lack of understanding which exists about these reactions is due to their obvious complexity and to the extremely minute quantities of molybdenum involved. Traces of molybdenum have been shown to have spectacular results on the growth of plants when added to certain soils. This metal is also required for the growth of azobacter, the nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

description: Abstract

In the era of sustainable technology, energy-efficient green data centers are critical for minimizing environmental impact while maintaining high-performance computing capabilities. This paper explores the integration of Machine Learning (ML) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to optimize load forecasting in these data centers. By leveraging advanced ML algorithms and IoT sensors, we aim to predict computational load with high accuracy, enabling dynamic resource allocation and energy optimization. This approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also significantly reduces energy consumption and carbon footprint. Our results demonstrate that incorporating ML and IoT for load forecasting improves predictive accuracy and facilitates more sustainable data center operations. This paper provides valuable insights into the practical application of these technologies, offering a blueprint for future advancements in green data center management.

description: Carbon is an extremely versatile element and carbon allotropes are very useful in all aspects of life and scientific research. T-carbon is a novel carbon allotrope with many appealing properties. Since the proposal of T-carbon, there has been a lot of intensive studies devoted to its physical, chemical, optical, magnetic, thermoelectrical and topological properties and possible applications in diverse areas in recent years. In this review, we provide a comprehensive review on the advances of the experiments, intriguing properties and various potential applications of T-carbon in energy storage, optoelectronics, thermoelectrics, topological states, etc. As intercalation and doping are effective methods to modify the electronic structure of materials or even to convert into sparkly different new structures or phases, we also discuss different atom doped T-carbon, which exhibit more intriguing properties and lead to promising potential applications in solar cells, photocatalysis, magnetism, superconductivity and so on. In addition, it is interesting to mention that the hydrogenated T-carbon molecules werefound to be possibly related to the physical origin of the UV extinction feature in interstellar medium that has been the half-century long unsolved puzzle. Many novel derivative structures either derived or inspired from T-carbon are included as well. Finally, we give prospects and outlook for future directions of study on T-carbon and related structures.

description: The double perovskite Sr2CrReO6 is an interesting material for spintronics, showing ferrimagnetism up to 635 K with a predicted high spin polarization of about 86%. We fabricated Sr2CrReO6 epitaxial films by pulsed laser deposition on (001)-oriented SrTiO3 substrates. Phase-pure films with optimum crystallographic and magnetic properties were obtained by growing at a substrate temperature of 700 degree C in pure O2 of 6.6x10-4 mbar. The films are c-axis oriented, coherently strained, and show less than 20% anti-site defects. The magnetization curves reveal high saturation magnetization of 0.8 muB per formula unit and high coercivity of 1.1 T, as well as a strong magnetic anisotropy.

description: Although Living Labs have emerged as resilient research and innovation infrastructures and have proved to be a “key” to the integration of research and innovation processes in real-life settings, they still fail to provide and function according to unified and harmonized processes that are easily accessible and exploitable by academic and industry researchers. Towards this end, VITALISE aims to create the first Harmonization guidelines for Living Labs that will facilitate the access of researchers to the provided infrastructures. This document presents the work performed for the Harmonization of the way Living Labs work for the first semester of VITALISE. The initial work of Harmonization aims to establish the state-of-the-art for the Living Lab services, methods and tools that will be used. This is also used as a baseline upon which the Standard versions will continue evolving throughout VITALISE and beyond. Another important aspect presented in this deliverable is the methodological framework that will be followed in the Harmonization process.

description: We study the propagation of the scalar modes around a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker universe for general modifications of gravity in the presence of a real scalar field. In general, there will be two propagating scalar perturbation fields, which will have in total four degrees of freedom. Two of these degrees will have a superluminal propagation--with k-dependent speed of propagation--whereas the other two will travel with the speed of light. Therefore, the scalar degrees of freedom do not modify the general feature of modified gravity models: the appearance of modes whose frequency depends on the second power of the modulus of the wave vector. Constraints are given and special cases are discussed.

description: It is known that there are nonlinear wave equations with localized solitary wave solutions. Some of these solitary waves are stable (with respect to a small perturbation of initial data) and have nonzero spin (nonzero intrinsic angular momentum in the center of momentum frame). In this paper we consider vector-valued solitary wave solutions to a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation and investigate the behavior of these spinning solitary waves under the influence of an externally imposed uniform magnetic field. We find that the only stationary spinning solitary wave solutions have spin parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetic field direction.

The political Thomas Hardy : a study of the Wessex novels and comparison with Boris Pasternak
Creators: name: Cobley, John R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis puts forward the case for a political reading of Thomas Hardy's Wessex Novels. Although the political aspects of these novels cannot be seen as his main preoccupation, it is argued that an awareness of the political motivation of Hardy is necessary for a proper and responsible reading. Through biographical and textual material, and through a comparison of Hardy with Boris Pasternak, it can be shown that a consistent political theme runs through the Wessex novels from the beginning to the end. The main reason why this political theme has not been generally appreciated is attributed to a misconception about Hardy's role as a novelist. For too long Hardy has been popularly described as a defender of the peasant or rustic. In fact, Hardy's interest was with those people who were just above the lowest class. Since he was himself from this slightly higher class, he was naturally sensitive to their difficulties in social improvement. Hardy therefore attacked the systems in society that protected the wealth and power for the middle and upper classes at the expense of the poorer people. The first chapter follows Hardy's early career both as an architect in London, where he developed strong political views that tended towards socialism, and as an aspiring novelist in a market which would not accept expression of those political views. The early novels show evidence of his suppressed political anger as Hardy lapses into outbursts of bitter social satire. The satire disappears after The Hand of Ethelberta when the novels complete a gradual movement towards tragedy. This meant that the discord between the early novels' general optimism and his political anger was eliminated. As a harmonious part of the later novels, Hardy's political attitudes are not so easily discerned. For this reason a special critical approach is needed. The second chapter compares Hardy's novels and political views with those of Boris Pasternak. Pasternak's poetic political novel provides a model for analysing the later more poetic Wessex Novels. Utilising the genre of the "lyrical novel," it is shown how the poet-novelist often pays less attention to narrative development and concentrates on shaping his central concerns within a symbolic structure. The third chapter makes a political reading of Tess of the D'Urbervilles based on the political attitudes established in the first chapter, and on the techniques of the lyrical novel defined in the second. The consistency of Hardy's political views in the Wessex Novels becomes apparent as the same concerns of the early novels are found through an analysis of the novel's symbolic structure.
L'obbligazione doganale

Subjects: IUS/12 Diritto tributario

description: Le competenze della Comunità europea nell’ambito tributario doganale tendono normalmente ad espandersi a discapito della sovranità fiscale degli Stati membri. Il diritto doganale è stato uno dei primi ambiti giuridici in cui le competenze nazionali sono state avocate a livello comunitario. In Italia e in Belgio, normative e procedure di livello statale continuano tuttavia ad essere presenti.  
La ricerca si propone di evidenziare gli attriti e le differenze che distinguono il sistema Comunitario doganale dai sistemi nazionali. Sono stati in particolare esaminati i meccanismi di applicazione del diritto comunitario negli Stati membri (con riferimento all’Italia e al Belgio). Una parte della trattazione, poi, è stata dedicata alla dimensione nazionale. Si è così cercato di evidenziare le differenze tra previsioni nazionali in materia doganale nel diritto italiano e belga. 
La ricerca sugli aspetti statici e dinamici dell’obbligazione doganale si è così confrontata con i seguenti aspetti:
- la necessità di ricostruire a livello comunitario una teoria dell’obbligazione doganale, al fine di confrontarla, in un’ottica di coerenza, con la possibilità di mantenere un limite alla libera circolazione delle merci. Quest’ultima, infatti, si confronta e in parte trova una giustificazione nella tutela degli interessi finanziari della Comunità. 
- la riconduzione del modello comunitario ad una teoria generale tributaria. Il tributo doganale deve essere esaminato sulla base della legislazione comunitaria, che prevede una disciplina puntuale. Si tratta della base di partenza per verificare gli aspetti di disciplina del tributo in materia di soggetto passivo, presupposto, modello di attuazione, liquidazione, rimborso.
- la comparazione delle discipline nazionali italiana e belga. La coerenza, propria delle tradizioni giuridiche nazionali, non risulta essere sempre salvaguardata. Si prospetta pertanto un attrito tra gli ordinamenti nazionali e quello comunitario.

description: PSR J0205+6449 is a young rotation-powered pulsar in SNR 3C 58. It is one of only three young (<10,000 year old) pulsars which are so far detected in the radio and the classical X-ray bands, as well as at hard X-rays above 20 keV and at high-energy (>100 MeV) $γ$-rays. The other two young pulsars are the Crab and PSR B1509-58. Our aim is to derive the timing and spectral characteristics of PSR J0205+6449 over the broad X-ray band from ~0.5 to ~270 keV. We used all publicly available RXTE observations of PSR J0205+6449 to first generate accurate ephemerides over the period September 30, 2000 - March 18, 2006. Next, phase-folding procedures yielded pulse profiles using data from RXTE PCA and HEXTE, and XMM-Newton EPIC PN. While our timing solutions are consistent with earlier results, our work shows sharper structures in the PCA X-ray profile. The X-ray pulse profile consists of two sharp pulses, separated in phase by 0.488(2), which can be described with 2 asymmetric Lorentzians, each with the rising wing steeper than the trailing wing, and full-width-half-maximum 1.41(5) ms and 2.35(22) ms, respectively. We find an indication for a flux increase by a factor ~2, about 3.5 sigma above the time-averaged value, for the second, weaker pulse during a two-week interval, while its pulse shape did not change. The spectrum of the pulsed X-ray emission is of non-thermal origin, exhibiting a power-law shape with photon index Gamma = 1.03(2) over the energy band ~0.5 to ~270 keV. In the energy band covered with the PCA (~3-30 keV) the spectra of the two pulses have the same photon index, namely, 1.04(3) and 1.10(8), respectively.

description: L- Histidine is a very important amino acid and is widely distributed in living systems. In the growth and multiplication of animal cells, it was found that L-histidine is one of the amino acids that must be present. From the kinetic studies of certain enzymes such as chymotrypsin and ribonuclease, it has been proposed that the imidazolyl group of the histidine residue may serve as the basic electron donor, and that the histidine residue in some cases may be the active site of the enzyme. The interactions of L-histidine with heavy metal ions, including Ni (II) (1), Zn (II) (1, 2), Fe (II) (1), Cu (II) (3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10), Mn (II) (6), Cd (II) (3, 4) and Co (II) (1, 11, 12), have been investigated.

In this paper, we aim to reveal the applied models of conceptual metaphor in Avicenna’s philosophical discourse through his human experience in logical thinking by adopting the major metaphorical classes formed from the three types of metaphor, structural, directional, and ontological, according to the linguistic structures. We found that his logical language is full of metaphorical structures with different dimensions, such as clarification, influence, persuasion, motivation, and suspense, because its basis on material foundation perceived by senses makes it more effective in terms of influence and persuasion.

description: We present a comprehensive angle-resolved photoemission study of the three-dimensional electronic structure of Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2. The wide range of dopings covered by this study, x=0 to x=0.3, allows to extract systematic features of the electronic structure. We show that there are three different hole pockets around the G point, the two inner ones being nearly degenerate and rather two dimensional, the outer one presenting a strong three dimensional character. The structure of the electron pockets is clarified by studying high doping contents, where they are enlarged. They are found to be essentially circular and two dimensional. From the size of the pockets, we deduce the number of holes and electrons present at the various dopings. We find that the net number of carriers is in good agreement with the bulk stoichiometry, but that the number of each species (holes and electrons) is smaller than predicted by theory. Finally, we discuss the quality of nesting in the different regions of the phase diagram. The presence of the third hole pocket significantly weakens the nesting at x=0, so that it may not be a crucial ingredient in the formation of the Spin Density Wave. On the other hand, superconductivity seems to be favored by the coexistence of two-dimensional hole and electron pockets of similar sizes.

description: We investigate the impact of many-body interactions on group-velocity slowdown achieved via electromagnetically induced transparency in quantum dots using three different coupling-probe schemes (ladder, V, and Lambda, respectively). We find that for all schemes many-body interactions have an important impact on the slow light properties. In the case of the Lambda and V schemes, the minimum required coupling power to achieve slow light is significantly reduced by many-body interactions. V type schemes are found to be generally preferable due to a favorable redistribution of carriers in energy space.

description: We study the breaking of time-reversal invariance (TRI) by the application of a magnetic field in the quantum kicked rotor (QKR), using Izrailev's finite-dimensional model. There is a continuous crossover from TRI to time-reversal non-invariance (TRNI) in the spectral and eigenvector fluctuations of the QKR. We show that the properties of this TRI $\rightarrow$ TRNI transition depend on $α^2/N$, where $α$ is the chaos parameter of the QKR and $N$ is the dimensionality of the evolution operator matrix. For $α^2/N \gtrsim N$, the transition coincides with that in random matrix theory. For $α^2/N < N$, the transition shows a marked deviation from random matrix theory. Further, the speed of this transition as a function of the magnetic field is significantly enhanced as $α^2/N$ decreases.
AN APPROACH FOR SOLVING BILEVEL LINEAR FRACTIONAL PROGRAMMING PROBLEMS USING PENTAGONAL INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY NUMBER

description: Abstract

This study presents a novel methodology for addressing intuitionistic fuzzy bilevel linear fractional programming problems (IFBLFPP). The proposed approach utilizes pentagonal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers to represent the cost coefficients of the objective function, resource constraints, and technological coefficients. To solve the IFBLFPP, the problem is first transformed into an intuitionistic fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem (IFBLPP), which is subsequently converted into a crisp bilevel linear fractional programming problem (CBLFPP) through a rigorously defined accuracy function. Several theorems are established to demonstrate that an efficient solution of the CBLFPP also serves as an efficient solution for the IFBLFPP. By applying Zimmermann's technique along with suitable non-linear membership functions, the CBLFPP is further simplified into a single-objective linear programming problem. The practicality and effectiveness of the proposed methodology are illustrated through a numerical example.

description: Molybdenum is very important in the life processes of both plants and animals. It acts as a catalyst in promoting and controlling many biological reactions in living cells, but exactly what it does and how it functions are not well understood. In the past because of the obvious complexity of the reactions concerned and the extremely minute quantities of molybdenum involved, its presence was long undetected. Lately, molybdenum has drawn special attention on account of its effects on metabolic processes, particularly of plants. In this regard, molybdenum has been shown to be present in four enzymes: nitrate reductase (JJ), xanthine oxidase (39), aldehyde oxidase (28), and hydrogenase (41).

description: Abstract 

Women in leadership can be understood as an embodiment of Agape in leadership. This article delves into the dynamic landscape of women in leadership roles, interpreting their influence through the prism of Agape - a concept rooted in selfless love and compassion. By scrutinizing the transformative impact of women leaders across diverse sectors, the narrative accentuates their distinct qualities, such as compassion, empathy, and selflessness, which resonate with the foundational tenets of Agape. The intersection of women in leadership and agape principles is  evident in corporate settings, where companies led by women demonstrate higher levels of employee satisfaction and innovation. The political arena also witnesses the influence of women leaders advocating for social justice and inclusivity. In education, women in leadership roles champion holistic approaches, nurturing not only academic excellence but also emotional intelligence. The article emphasizes the positive organizational transformations resulting from the infusion of agape into leadership, fostering sustainable and effective governance. Despite historical challenges, the 21st century has seen a paradigm shift, acknowledging and leveraging the value of diverse perspectives women bring to leadership. The article underscores the importance of challenging gender stereotypes, promoting diversity, and recognizing the business case for gender inclusivity. The manifestation of agape in women’s leadership extends beyond organizational boundaries, contributing to societal progress, ethical business practices, and global cooperation. The amalgamation of women in leadership and agape principles represents a profound shift in leadership paradigms, emphasizing compassion, empathy, selflessness, and a commitment to the greater good.

description: The origin of the Hall effect in many itinerant ferromagnets is still not resolved, with an anomalous contribution from the sample magnetization that can exhibit extrinsic or intrinsic behavior. We report the first mid-infared (MIR) measurements of the complex Hall ($θ_H$), Faraday ($θ_F$), and Kerr ($θ_K$) angles, as well as the Hall conductivity ($σ_{xy}$) in a SrRuO$_3$ film in the 115-1400 meV energy range. The magnetic field, temperature, and frequency dependence of the Hall effect is explored. The MIR magneto-optical response shows very strong frequency dependence, including sign changes. Below 200 meV, the MIR $θ_H (T)$ changes sign between 120 and 150 K, as is observed in dc Hall measurements. Above 200 meV, the temperature dependence of $θ_H$ is similar to that of the dc magnetization and the measurements are in good agreement with predictions from a band calculation for the intrinsic anomalous Hall effect (AHE). The temperature and frequency dependence of the measured Hall effect suggests that whereas the behavior above 200 meV is consistent with an intrinsic AHE, the extrinsic AHE plays an important role in the lower energy response.

A parallel orientation of a linear polarized laser and the molecular axis is considered. Within the dipole and the fixed-nuclei approximations the time-dependent Schrödinger equation describing the electronic motion is solved in full dimensionality and compared to simpler models. A dramatic break-down of the single-active-electron approximation is found and explained to be due to the inadequate description of the final continuum states.

description: Abstract

Acne vulgaris (AV) is a prevalent dermatological condition that impacts individuals across all age groups. It is a dermatological disorder characterized by the inflammation of the sebaceous glands and hair follicles. Several research have attempted to investigate the relationship between nutritional status and AV. This study examines the relationship between body mass index, fat mass, mid-upper arm circumference, waist circumference, and the severity of acne vulgaris in medical students. This study utilized a cross-sectional technique. Anthropometric measurements encompass body mass index (BMI), fat mass, mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), and waist circumference. The severity of AV was assessed using the Lehman Acne grading standards. The association between variables was assessed by bivariate analysis using the Somers' d test. The subject for this study consisted of 115 preclinical medical students. The average age was 20.5±0.89 years. The results indicated that there was no significant correlation seen between BMI, fat mass, waist circumference, MUAC, or severity of AV in either subject. This study has demonstrated that anthropometric parameters were not reliable indicators of the severity of AV. Further inquiry is necessary to explore additional factors that could potentially contribute to the severity of acne.

description: Nonextensive statistical mechanics has been a source of investigation in mathematical structures such as deformed algebraic structures. In this work, we present some consequences of $q$-operations on the construction of $q$-numbers for all numerical sets. Based on such a construction, we present a new product that distributes over the $q$-sum. Finally, we present different patterns of $q$-Pascal's triangles, based on $q$-sum, whose elements are $q$-numbers.

title: Time Course of Enzyme Catalyzed Reactions: The Stoichiometry A --> P + Q
Creators: name: Tuttle, Tamra
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: The feasibility of using an integrated rate equation to analyze the kinetics of a second-order, enzyme-catalyzed reaction has been investigated. The inducible arginine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli B. was chosen for this study because it catalyzes an irreversible reaction with stoichiometry A --> P + Q, the simplest second order case. Values for five of the eight possible kinetic constants were determined from 21 time courses. Of the remaining three, the uncompetitive product inhibition constant for CO2 was shown to be between O and 0.06, while the values of the competitive product inhibition for CO2 and the uncompetitive constant for arginine, agmatine and CO2 simultaneously do not appear to be appreciably different from zero. Initial rate analysis of the time courses gave similar results.
The results obtained by varying the initial agmatine concentration at a low initial arginine concentration were not consistent with the rest of the data. This appears to be due to a. fundamental difference in the behavior of the enzyme under those conditions rather than to a problem associated with the analysis.

description: The force-free parameter $α$, also known as helicity parameter or twist parameter, bears the same sign as the magnetic helicity under some restrictive conditions. The single global value of $α$ for a whole active region gives the degree of twist per unit axial length. We investigate the effect of polarimetric noise on the calculation of global $α$ value and magnetic energy of an analytical bipole. The analytical bipole has been generated using the force-free field approximation with a known value of constant $α$ and magnetic energy. The magnetic parameters obtained from the analytical bipole are used to generate Stokes profiles from the Unno-Rachkovsky solutions for polarized radiative transfer equations. Then we add random noise of the order of 10$^{-3}$ of the continuum intensity (I$_{c}$) in these profiles to simulate the real profiles obtained by modern spectropolarimeters like Hinode (SOT/SP), SVM (USO), ASP, DLSP, POLIS, SOLIS etc. These noisy profiles are then inverted using a Milne-Eddington inversion code to retrieve the magnetic parameters. Hundred realizations of this process of adding random noise and polarimetric inversion is repeated to study the distribution of error in global $α$ and magnetic energy values. The results show that : (1). the sign of $α$ is not influenced by polarimetric noise and very accurate values of global twist can be calculated, and (2). accurate estimation of magnetic energy with uncertainty as low as 0.5% is possible under the force-free condition.

description: Although small spacecraft are small in size and light in weight compared to the conventional satellites, they can offer lots of possibilities for space exploration, scientific observation, data collection and telecommunication. Also, they cost a lot less money than the conventional satellites, and the scientific missions can be planned in a relatively short period of time by using the COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) materials. However, there is a big challenge for the small spacecraft that is the limited surface area of the small spacecraft and the outnumbered components to be mounted on the surface of the small spacecraft. The most obvious one is that the competition for the limited real estate between the antenna and solar cells.
UAVs, also known as drones, have become so popular that it is not only used for military and scientific applications, but also they are available for recreational use for ordinary people. Although they are getting smaller in size so that one can put them in his pocket or on his palm, they are becoming multifunctional, which requires more sensors to be mounted on the surface of the drone to achieve its multifunctionality. For example, a recreational drone can not only take pictures and videos, but also it can transmit the picture or video in real time to the operator, which needs a camera to take the picture or videos and needs an antenna to transmit the recorded data to the operator. This requires that the limited surface area needs to be efficiently used in order to accommodate the multiple needed components. This thesis presented a faster, better and cheaper way of inkjet printing conformal antennas on the cover glass of the solar cells of the small spacecraft or on the wing or other parts of the UAV body to integrate the antenna with the solar panels of the CubeSats or with or directly printing the antenna on the UAV body to efficiently use the limited real estate. Several meshed and solid patch antennas printed on a space certified AF32 glass substrate using the printing procedure outlined in this thesis and measured to verify the effectiveness of the inkjet printing procedures. A high gain reflectarray with optical transparency of 95% was inkjet printed on space certified AF32 glass and BOROFLOAT glass and measured to verify the antenna performance and solar panel efficiency. Measurement results showed that the inkjet printed reflectarray integrated on top of the solar panel has a gain of 21.5 dB. The solar panel efficiency was dropped by around 6% due to the inkjet printed reflectarray on glass.
A simple conformal dual-band antenna for UAV application was designed with ANSYS HFSS and fabricated in the lab using a foam substrate. The measured antenna performances agreed well with the simulation results. This dual-band antenna also can be inkjet printed directly on the wing or other parts of the UAVs using the printing techniques discussed in this thesis.

description: The Cache County Study on Memory in Aging, funded by the National Institute on Aging, studied longitudinal changes in memory and aging over 12 years’ follow-up in a population-based sample of 5,092 older adults in semirural Cache County, UT. Among the extensive interview procedures, researchers collected information regarding the participants’ demographics, health, genetic factors, diet, physical activity, and cognitive abilities. This study has allowed researchers to investigate how genetic and modifiable lifestyle factors interact to predict health, cognitive function, and psychological wellbeing in older adults.
Diet and exercise are important lifestyle factors in maintaining cognitive health and psychological wellbeing throughout the lifespan, including late-life. The current investigation primarily focused on the link between these lifestyle factors and specific genes in predicting cognitive decline and risk for depression among older adults. Older adults are at risk for cognitive and mood changes as they age and certain genes may increase their vulnerability to these changes. However, it is possible that an older adult’s lifestyle behaviors regarding dietary pattern and physical activity may be protective against such genetic vulnerabilities. The genes investigated in this study are related to the production of a protein in the brain that promotes cell growth and survival. A better understanding of the relationship between lifestyle and genetic factors in late-life cognitive decline and depression may offer a better conceptualization of healthy aging and lead to more targeted diet and exercise recommendations. The present study found that engagement in moderate-vigorous physical activity was associated with slower cognitive decline whereas vigorous physical activity was associated with reduced risk for depression. Further, a specific gene was related to worse cognitive functioning among sedentary individuals. Alternatively, greater adherence to the dietary pattern investigated in our study did not reduce risk for depression and was beneficial for cognition in males only.

description: Research software are vital outputs of the research endeavour. They are often integral to the generation of research data, and rely on the same technical and social infrastructure to disseminate, cultivate, and coordinate activities. While adherence of research software to the ideals of openness and FAIRness should be per se intellegitur, only recently have efforts been started to ensure they are afforded the same long-term preservation and stewardship as other research outputs. However, research software engineers are yet to view making their software FAIR and Open as normative and in their interests. The value of adding PIDs to research software to expose both citation metrics and their interconnections with other research entities is expected to increase researcher buy-in and drive change.

 In her presentation, Gabi shows how DataCite supports research software as a resource type. A recording of the presentation can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaUdaQ-lI1E&t=1294s

description: ABSTRACTSpot-urinary biomarkers are crucial in medical, epidemiological, and environmental studies, but their variability due to hydration levels requires precise dilution adjustments. Traditional methods, like conventional creatinine correction (CCRC), are limited in compensating for variations in urine concentration, causing substantial inconsistencies, particularly at the extremes of the diuresis spectrum. While the WHO recommendation of restricting the creatinine (CRN) range to 0.3–3 g/L aims to ensure result stability, this attempt not only necessitates the exclusion of a large proportion of samples but still allows for significant result fluctuations within the accepted range.This study introduces a novel variable power functional creatinine correction method (V-PFCRC) to normalize analytes to 1 g/L CRN by utilizing uncorrected analyte levels and two analyte-specific coefficients, c and d. Based on extensive urinary total weight arsenic data (n = 5553), the mathematical derivation of these coefficients is detailed in this paper and forms the foundation of the corrective V-PFCRC formulas. The generalizability of V-PFCRC was evaluated using large spot-urinary datasets for four additional metals and an extensive dataset of urinary iodine levels (n > 58000) and blood iodine. Validation against conventional methods—assessing vital statistical data, residual CRN bias, and correlations with concurrently detected blood levels of total arsenic and iodine— demonstrated the superior performance of V-PFCRC in reducing residual CRN bias and enhancing blood-urine correlations.The V-PFCRC method effectively addresses non-linear hydration bias and the exposure-dependent variability of this bias, providing a more accurate representation of exposure and supply levels. The adaptability and efficiency of V-PFCRC suggest its broad applicability across various scientific disciplines, potentially transforming the precision and reliability of urinary biomarker assessments.
