description: State-owned enterprises (SOEs) play a crucial role in Uzbekistan’s economy, contributing significantly to GDP, employment, and public services. Despite ongoing reforms, the financial performance of SOEs remains a pressing concern, with a substantial number experiencing operational inefficiencies, losses, and reliance on state support. This study analyzes SOE trends from 2019 to 2023, focusing on their financial health, sectoral performance, and the extent of government interventions. While some SOEs, particularly in the mining and metallurgy sectors, have remained profitable, others, especially in the energy sector, have struggled due to inefficiencies and state-mandated social obligations.

description: During the first year of life, infants undergo perceptual narrowing in the domains of speech and face perception. This is typically characterized by improvements in infants' abilities in discriminating among stimuli of familiar types, such as native speech tones and same-race faces. Simultaneously, infants begin to decline in their ability to discriminate among stimuli of types with which they have little experience, such as nonnative tones and other-race faces. The similarity in time-frames during which perceptual narrowing seems to occur in the domains of speech and face perception has led some researchers to hypothesize that the perceptual narrowing in these domains could be driven by shared domain-general processes. To explore this hypothesis, we tested 53 Caucasian 9-month-old infants from monolingual German households on their ability to discriminate among non-native Cantonese speech tones, as well among same-race German faces and other-race Chinese faces. We tested the infants using an infant-controlled habituation-dishabituation paradigm, with infants' preferences for looking at novel stimuli versus the habituated stimuli (dishabituation scores) acting as indicators of discrimination ability. As expected for their age, infants were able to discriminate between same-race faces, but not between other-race faces or non-native speech tones. Most interestingly, we found that infants' dishabituation scores for the non-native speech tones and other-race faces showed significant positive correlations, while the dishabituation scores for non-native speech tones and same-race faces did not. These results therefore support the hypothesis that shared domain-general mechanisms may drive perceptual narrowing in the domains of speech and face perception.

description: In this report, we investigate small proteins involved in bacterial alternative respiratory systems that improve the enzymatic efficiency through better anchorage and multimerization of membrane components. Using the small protein TorE of the respiratory TMAO reductase system as a model, we discovered that TorE is part of a subfamily of small proteins that are present in proteobacteria in which they play a similar role for bacterial respiratory systems. We reveal by microscopy that, in Shewanella oneidensis MR1, alternative respiratory systems are evenly distributed in the membrane contrary to what has been described for Escherichia coli. Thus, the better efficiency of the respiratory systems observed in the presence of the small proteins is not due to a specific localization in the membrane, but rather to the formation of membranous complexes formed by TorE homologs with their c-type cytochrome partner protein. By an in vivo approach combining Clear Native electrophoresis and fluorescent translational fusions, we determined the 4: 4 stoichiometry of the complexes. In addition, mild solubilization of the cytochrome indicates that the presence of the small protein reinforces its anchoring to the membrane. Therefore, assembly of the complex induced by this small protein improves the efficiency of the respiratory system.

description: Although hydrologic models provide hypothesis testing of complex dynamics occurring at catchments, fresh-water quality modeling is still incipient at many subtropical headwaters. In Brazil, a few modeling studies assess freshwater nutrients, limiting policies on hydrologic ecosystem services. This paper aims to compare freshwater quality scenarios under different land-use and land-cover (LULC) change, one of them related to ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA), in Brazilian headwaters. Using the spatially semi-distributed Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, nitrate, total phosphorous (TP) and sediment were modeled in catchments ranging from 7.2 to 1037 km(2). These head-waters were eligible areas of the Brazilian payment for ecosystem services (PES) projects in the Cantareira water supply system, which had supplied water to 9 million people in the Sao Paulo metropolitan region (SPMR). We considered SWAT modeling of three LULC scenarios: (i) recent past scenario (S1), with historical LULC in 1990; (ii) current land-use scenario (S2), with LULC for the period 2010-2015 with field validation; and (iii) future land-use scenario with PES (S2 + EbA). This latter scenario proposed forest cover restoration through EbA following the river basin plan by 2035. These three LULC scenarios were tested with a selected record of rainfall and evapotranspiration observed in 2006-2014, with the occurrence of extreme droughts. To assess hydrologic services, we proposed the hydrologic service index (HSI), as a new composite metric comparing water pollution levels (WPL) for reference catchments, related to the grey water footprint (greyWF) and water yield. On the one hand, water quality simulations allowed for the regionalization of greyWF at spatial scales under LULC scenarios. According to the critical threshold, HSI identified areas as less or more sustainable catchments. On the other hand, conservation practices simulated through the S2 + EbA scenario envisaged not only additional and viable best management practices (BMP), but also preventive decision-making at the headwaters of water supply systems.

description: To improve the angular separation capability of radar sensors, large apertures with respect to the wavelength are increasingly used. With the help of MIMO operation, even larger virtual apertures than the physical ones are realized. This improvement in performance requires an extremely accurate calibration setup in order to avoid systematic errors and to achieve the best possible performance of the sensor. Thus, robotic arms are increasingly used for accurate characterizations of antennas due to their high position accuracy. In this work, an efficient method for the alignment of radar sensor and radar target is outlined which is within the repeatability range of the robot arm deployed for calibration measurements amounting to only 50 micro meters.
Second-mode Waves in Hypersonic Boundary Layers: Energy Balance, Kinematics and Mechanics

Year: 2025
Subjects: classificationCode: 400106
subject: Hypersonic propulsion and hypersonic aerothermodynamics

description: This study explores the influence of wall temperature on second-mode instabilities during hypersonic boundary layer transition. Direct numerical simulations (DNS), supported by linear stability theory, are conducted over a sharp cone in Mach 6 flow. A second-order disturbance energy equation, closed using DNS data, reveals the mechanisms of energy production and transport that drive instability growth. Results show that second-mode waves behave as trapped acoustic disturbances, with trapping enhanced under colder wall conditions due to stronger velocity gradients. Energy production relies on in-phase velocity and temperature fluctuations at the inflection line, with energy transported downward to sustain near-wall pressure fluctuations. Phase relationships are crucial: a ninety-degree phase difference between pressure and wall-normal velocity indicates standing wave formation. Colder walls maintain the phase structure needed for strong coupling and resonance, promoting instability growth. In contrast, heated walls disrupt this phasing, stabilizing the flow. Nonlinear effects eventually limit growth, leading to energy saturation.

description: The lateral and vertical temperature distribution in Oman is so far only poorly understood, particularly in the area between Muscat and the Batinah coast, which is the area of this study and which is composed of Cenozoic sediments developed as part of a foreland basin of the Makran Thrust Zone. Temperature logs (T-logs) were run and physical rock properties of the sediments were analyzed to understand the temperature distribution, thermal and hydraulic properties, and heat-transport processes within the sedimentary cover of northern Oman. An advective component is evident in the otherwise conduction-dominated geothermal play system, and is caused by both topography and density driven flow. Calculated temperature gradients (T-gradients) in two wells that represent conductive conditions are 18.7 and 19.5 degrees C km(-1), corresponding to about 70-90 degrees C at 2000-3000 m depth. This indicates a geothermal potential that can be used for energy intensive applications like cooling or water desalinization. Sedimentation in the foreland basin was initiated after the obduction of the Semail Ophiolite in the late Campanian, and reflects the complex history of alternating periods of transgressive and regressive sequences with erosion of the Oman Mountains. Thermal and hydraulic parameters were analyzed of the basin's heterogeneous clastic and carbonate sedimentary sequence. Surface heat-flow values of 46.4 and 47.9 mW m(-2) were calculated from the T-logs and calculated thermal conductivity values in two wells. The results of this study serve as a starting point for assessing different geothermal applications that may be suitable for northern Oman.

description: Salt marshes filter pollutants, protect coastlines against storm surges, and sequester carbon, yet are under threat from sea level rise and anthropogenic modification. The sustained existence of the salt marsh ecosystem depends on the topographic evolution of marsh platforms. Quantifying marsh platform topography is vital for improving the management of these valuable landscapes. The determination of platform boundaries currently relies on supervised classification methods requiring near-infrared data to detect vegetation, or demands labour-intensive field surveys and digitisation. We propose a novel, unsupervised method to reproducibly isolate salt marsh scarps and platforms from a digital elevation model (DEM), referred to as Topographic Identification of Platforms (TIP). Field observations and numerical models show that salt marshes mature into subhorizontal platforms delineated by subvertical scarps. Based on this premise, we identify scarps as lines of local maxima on a slope raster, then fill landmasses from the scarps upward, thus isolating mature marsh platforms. We test the TIP method using lidar-derived DEMs from six salt marshes in England with varying tidal ranges and geometries, for which topographic platforms were manually isolated from tidal flats. Agreement between manual and unsupervised classification exceeds 94% for DEM resolutions of 1 m, with all but one site maintaining an accuracy superior to 90% for resolutions up to 3 m. For resolutions of 1 m, platforms detected with the TIP method are comparable in surface area to digitised platforms and have similar elevation distributions. We also find that our method allows for the accurate detection of local block failures as small as 3 times the DEM resolution. Detailed inspection reveals that although tidal creeks were digitised as part of the marsh platform, unsupervised classification categorises them as part of the tidal flat, causing an increase in false negatives and overall platform perimeter. This suggests our method may benefit from combination with existing creek detection algorithms. Fallen blocks and high tidal flat portions, associated with potential pioneer zones, can also lead to differences between our method and supervised mapping. Although pioneer zones prove difficult to classify using a topographic method, we suggest that these transition areas should be considered when analysing erosion and accretion processes, particularly in the case of incipient marsh platforms. Ultimately, we have shown that unsupervised classification of marsh platforms from high-resolution topography is possible and sufficient to monitor and analyse topographic evolution.

description: The economic assessment of the impacts of storm surges and sea-level rise in coastal cities requires high-level information on the damage and protection costs associated with varying flood heights. We provide a systematically and consistently calculated dataset of macroscale damage and protection cost curves for the 600 largest European coastal cities opening the perspective for a wide range of applications. Offering the first comprehensive dataset to include the costs of dike protection, we provide the underpinning information to run comparative assessments of costs and benefits of coastal adaptation. Aggregate cost curves for coastal flooding at the city-level are commonly regarded as by-products of impact assessments and are generally not published as a standalone dataset. Hence, our work also aims at initiating a more critical discussion on the availability and derivation of cost curves.

description: In automated driving, the safety and robustness of the overall system are among the most important key challenges today. To tackle these safety and robustness challenges, the monitoring and self-assessment of all modules in the automated system is necessary. Tracking surrounding objects as part of the environmental perception is a key module in automated systems. Thus, this work presents a novel overall concept and framework for self-assessment in multi-object tracking based on the subjective logic theory. The self-assessment concept is comprehensively discussed and evaluated by simulations and real-world data of the KITTI dataset, showing the relevance of this proposed method.

description: Losses due to floods have dramatically increased over the past decades, and losses of companies, comprising direct and indirect losses, have a large share of the total economic losses. Thus, there is an urgent need to gain more quantitative knowledge about flood losses, particularly losses caused by business interruption, in order to mitigate the economic loss of companies. However, business interruption caused by floods is rarely assessed because of a lack of sufficiently detailed data. A survey was undertaken to explore processes influencing business interruption, which collected information on 557 companies affected by the severe flood in June 2013 in Germany. Based on this data set, the study aims to assess the business interruption of directly affected companies by means of a Random Forests model. Variables that influence the duration and costs of business interruption were identified by the variable importance measures of Random Forests. Additionally, Random Forest-based models were developed and tested for their capacity to estimate business interruption duration and associated costs. The water level was found to be the most important variable influencing the duration of business interruption. Other important variables, relating to the estimation of business interruption duration, are the warning time, perceived danger of flood recurrence and inundation duration. In contrast, the amount of business interruption costs is strongly influenced by the size of the company, as assessed by the number of employees, emergency measures undertaken by the company and the fraction of customers within a 50 km radius. These results provide useful information and methods for companies to mitigate their losses from business interruption. However, the heterogeneity of companies is relatively high, and sector-specific analyses were not possible due to the small sample size. Therefore, further sector-specific analyses on the basis of more flood loss data of companies are recommended.

description: A p-n junction, induced in graphene by gating, works to contrast the edge states of electrons and holes on each side of it. In a magnetic field those edge states carry two species of persistent current, which are intimately tied to the edge-mode spectra. We study how those persistent currents change along each side of the junction as the Fermi level is varied, with special emphasis on the electron-hole conjugation property of the Dirac electrons. A close look is made into the electromagnetic response of the valence band filled with negative-energy electrons, or the Dirac sea, which as a whole turns out to be electrically inactive while showing intrinsic orbital diamagnetism. Recently, in experiment, it became possible to observe local currents in planar samples by use of a nanoscale magnetometer. The p-n junctions in graphene and related atomic layers, via detection of associated microscopic currents, will be a useful platform for exploring many-body quantum phenomena.

description: In medical imaging, accurate diagnosis heavily relies on effective image enhancement techniques, particularly for X-ray images. Existing methods often suffer from various challenges such as sacrificing global image characteristics over local image characteristics or vice versa. In this paper, we present a novel approach, called G-CLAHE (Global-Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization), which perfectly suits medical imaging with a focus on X-rays. This method adapts from Global Histogram Equalization (GHE) and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) to take both advantages and avoid weakness to preserve local and global characteristics. Experimental results show that it can significantly improve current state-of-the-art algorithms to effectively address their limitations and enhance the contrast and quality of X-ray images for diagnostic accuracy.

Selbst in den entlegensten Ecken des Landes stehen buddhistische Tempel, viele Thailänder tragen ein Ebenbild Buddhas um den Hals und in fast jedem Geschäft oder Haus steht eine Buddhafigur. Aber der Buddhismus scheint immer mehr zu einem Ritual zu verkommen. Und von materieller Entsagung kaum eine Spur. In fast keinem Land in Südostasien scheint die westliche Konsumkultur so eingeschlagen zu haben wie in Thailand.

Using Difference-in-Differences to Identify Causal Effects of COVID-19 Policies
Creators: name: Goodman-Bacon, Andrew
name: Marcus, Jan
Publisher: name: Survey Research Methods
Year: 2020

description: Policymakers have implemented a wide range of non-pharmaceutical interventions to fight the spread of COVID-19. Variation in policies across jurisdictions and over time strongly suggests a difference-in-differences (DD) research design to estimate causal effects of counter-COVID measures. We discuss threats to the validity of these DD designs and make recommendations about how researchers can avoid bias, interpret results accurately, and provide sound guidance to policymakers seeking to protect public health and facilitate an eventual economic recovery.

description: To minimize coverage and participation biases, this web survey adopted two complementary sampling strategies: (a) SMS invitations to random-number mobile phones, and (b) Internet advertisements targeting specific sociodemographic groups. This combination of aleatory selection from a rather comprehensive sampling frame, on one hand, and responsive definition of target profiles, on the other, largely succeeded in adjusting the sample to relevant population parameters, albeit with the noteworthy exception of education level.

description: Themen wie Arbeitsbeziehungen, Sicherheit am Arbeitsplatz und Sozialversicherung sind von der thailändischen Politik lange vernachlässigt worden. So wurde erst 1993 das längst überfällige Arbeits- und Sozialministerium gegründet, während sich bis dahin lediglich einige Abteilungen des Innenministeriums mit diesen Problemen beschäftigten.

Challenges for higher education collaborators aiming for graduates to enter the workforce equipped with appropriate international and multi-cultural skills
Creators: name: Dibley, Carole
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In this paper it is my intention to discuss whether the students in the partnership between China University of Mining and Technology (CUMT) and Swinburne University of Technology (SUT) graduate with skills that will see them as cross-culturally sensitive and able to perform professionally and/or socially in an international and multi-cultural context. In the Education Working Paper No. 8, July 2007 for Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Marginson and Marijk van der Wende state “it is no longer possible for nations or for individual higher education institutions to completely seal themselves off from global effect”. As CUMT and SUT degrees, that form part of the partnership, are concerned with Business Management and Electronic Commerce both universities undoubtedly recognise the importance of the cross-culturally sensitive skills as our students prepare to work in a global workforce.

title: Co-crystallisation of benzoic acid with sodium benzoate : the significance of stoichiometry
Creators: name: Butterhof, Christian

description: Currently the synthesis of co-crystals is receiving considerable attention. We studied co-crystallisation of benzoic acid with sodium benzoate in different ratios and with different crystallisation techniques. A crystalline co-crystal, composed of two equivalents of benzoic acid and one equivalent of sodium benzoate (2 HBz·1 NaBz) could be identified and structurally characterised. By concomitant coordination of benzoate and benzoic acid the coordination needs of the cation could be satisfied. However, even with a 2[thin space (1/6-em)]:[thin space (1/6-em)]1 ratio, an octahedral environment could only be realised by sharing an edge in a dimer. The dimers are connected to one-dimensional tapes which in turn are packed in a distorted hexagonal arrangement. Only with a ratio of two neutral benzoic acid ligands and one benzoate can the coordination requirements of the sodium cation and charge neutrality be assured at the same time.
title: Visual Perception of Thick Transparent Materials

description: Under typical viewing conditions, human observers readily distinguish between materials such as silk, marmalade, or granite, an achievement of the visual system that is poorly understood. Recognizing transparent materials is especially challenging. Previous work on the perception of transparency has focused on objects composed of flat, infinitely thin filters. In the experiments reported here, we considered thick transparent objects, such as ice cubes, which are irregular in shape and can vary in refractive index. An important part of the visual evidence signaling the presence of such objects is distortions in the perceived shape of other objects in the scene. We propose a new class of visual cues derived from the distortion field induced by thick transparent objects, and we provide experimental evidence that cues arising from the distortion field predict both the successes and the failures of human perception in judging refractive indices.

description: Carbon dots (CDs) shows great application potential with their unique and excellent performances. Coal and its derivatives are rich in aromatic ring structure, which is suitable for preparing CDs in microstructure. Coal burning dust from coal-fired power plants can be utilized as a rich resource to separate and extract CDs. It has been shown in our results that there have two main possible mechanisms for the formation of CDs in coal burning dust. One is the self-assembly of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons contained in coal or produced by incomplete combustion of coal. The other mechanism is that the bridge bonds linking different aromatic structures in coal are breaking which would form CDs with different functional groups when the coals are burning at high temperature. Under violet light excitation at 310-340 nm or red light at 610-640 nm, CDs extracted from coal burning dust can emit purple fluorescence around 410 nm. The mechanism of up-conversion fluorescence emission of CDs is due to a two-photon absorption process. The recycling of CDs from coal burning dust from coal-fired power plants are not only good to protect environment but also would be helpful for mass production of CDs.
title:  Il contenuto immateriale del cibo. Nuove sfide per l’innovazione del settore agroalimentare
Creators: name: Giarè  , Francesca
Publisher: name: RomaTrE-Press

description: I cambiamenti socio-culturali incidono significativamente sulla produzione e sul consumo di cibo e sollecitano l’individuazione e introduzione di innovazioni non solo di tipo tecnologico, ma anche organizzative e sociali. L’evoluzione della struttura delle famiglie, l’aumento di scelte di consumo differenziate legate a patologie vere o presunte, mode, scelte etiche, ma anche scelte critiche, il crescente carattere multiculturale ed etnico della nostra società determinano un cambiamento nelle caratteristiche intrinseche del cibo, ma anche nella quantità e qualità di servizi ad esso connessi. Il cibo, inoltre, tende sempre più a fare riferimento a valori ed orizzonti di senso, che ne condizionano la produzione, la trasformazione e commercializzazione, oltre, ovviamente, il consumo sia per quanto riguarda i luoghi in cui avviene la consumazione del pasto sia per quanto riguarda le modalità stesse del consumo. Il contributo presenta alcuni elementi del dibattito in corso sul tema, con un approfondimento specifico sulla dimensione sociale dell’innovazione nel settore agroalimentare e su quegli elementi di innovazione “immateriale” che avvicinano il cibo alle comunità.

description: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has a massive impact on society. To curb the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, unprecedented containment measures are being taken by governments around the world. These measures and the fear of the disease itself are likely affecting the economy, social inequality, mental and physical health, and even people’s perception of good democratic governance. Equally unprecedented is the speed at which these massive changes take place and the lack of statistical evidence that accompanies them. Within days of the first containment measures in Germany, the German Internet Panel (GIP) launched the Mannheim Corona Study (MCS), a daily rotating panel study of the general adult population of approximately 3,600 respondents. Its data and reports now inform the crisis cabinet of the German government and are the basis for groundbreaking social and economic research. This paper gives insights into the MCS methodology and data quality.
