description: Bei 165 Inkontinenzpatientinnen (Dranginkontinenz, Mischinkontinenz, Stressinkontinenz, Deszensus) wurde mit der Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-26) und dem Levels of Emotional Awarenesse Scale (LEAS) die Alexithymie, mit dem Beck Depressions Inventar (BDI) die Depression, dem State-Trait-Anxiety Inventory (STAI) die Ängstlichkeit und dem Kings Health Questionnaire die Lebensqualität erhoben. Folgende Hypothesen resultierten als nicht signifikant: * Die 4 Diagnosegruppen unterschieden sich in der TAS-26 nicht in ihrer alexithymen Ausprägung * Die 4 Diagnosegruppen unterschieden sich in der STAI nicht in ihrer Ängstlichkeit * Die 4 Diagnosegruppen unterschieden sich im Kings Health Questionnnaire nicht in ihrer Lebensqualität Folgende Hypothesen resultierten als signifikant: * Die Gruppe der Deszensus Patientinnen hatte signifikant niedrigere emotionale Entwicklungswerte (p = 0.012) in der LEAS als die 3 anderen Diagnosegruppen. Das eta2 von 0.102 entspricht einem tendenziell hohen Effekt. Somit ist dieser Unterschied klinisch relevant. * Die Gruppe der Mischinkontinenzpatientinnen war signifikant depressiver (p = 0.039) als die Gruppe der Deszensus Patientinnen. Mit einem eta2 von 0.067 entspricht dieser Unterschied einem mittel starken Effekt und ist somit klinisch relevant. * Die TAS-26 korreliert mit der STAI und dem BDI, nicht so die LEAS- Dieses Ergebnis wirft die messmethodisch Frage auf ob beide Instrumente nicht unterschiedliche Konstrukte messen?

description: Ziel der Studie: Das Ziel dieser Evaluierungsstudie war es, die PAS-ADD-C und die ABC hinsichtlich eines neuen Gütekriteriums, nämlich dem der Feasibility, zu untersuchen. Dies dient der Qualitätssicherung und Verbesserung von klinischen Instrumenten. Weiters soll sich dies auch in der Qualität des Outcomes wiederspiegeln. Die Qualität von klinischen Instrumenten bei Personen mit IB hat weitreichende Folgen für die Person, aber auch für die Institute und das gesamte Gesundheitssystem. Methode: Zur Evaluation der Instrumente PAS-ADD-C und ABC wurde ein Feasibility Fragebogen erstellt, mit dem die BetreuerInnen von Menschen mit IB des Pomona II Folgeprojektes befragt wurden. Dieser besteht insgesamt aus drei Skalen: Benutzerfreundlichkeit, Anwendbarkeit und Akzeptanz. Teilweise wurden die Fragbögen direkt bei der POMONA II Folgestudie (2009) beigelegt. Dem Großteil der teilnehmenden Personen wurde der Fragebogen, nach telefonischer Ankündigung, per Post zugeschickt. Die Instrumente sollten hinsichtlich den Skalen Benutzerfreundlichkeit, Anwendbarkeit und Akzeptanz beurteilt werden. Die Auswertung der Daten erfolgte hauptsächlich mittels deskriptiven Statistikmaßen. Ergebnisse: Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass beide Instrumente, PAS-ADD-C und ABC, das Gütekriterium der Feasibility gut erfüllen. Beide Fragebögen wurden nahezu gleich gut bewertet. Am besten wurde die Skala Benutzerfreundlichkeit beurteilt. Aber auch die anderen Dimensionen der Feasibility, Anwendbarkeit und Akzeptanz, wurden als gut erachtet. Weiters gab es keinen signifikanten Zusammenhang zwischen der Arbeitserfahrung der Betreuungspersonen und der Bewertung der Instrumente PAS-ADD-C und ABC. Konklusion: Nach dem in der Arbeit präsentiertem Konzept der Feasibility, wurden die Instrumente, PAS-ADD-C und ABC als gut bewertet.
Low velocity and high velocity impact of composites and fibre metal laminates for commercial aircraft structures

description: Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRPs) and Fibre Metal Laminates (FMLs) are gradually replacing the conventional metallic materials from fabricating the primary structures of modern passenger aircraft due to their brilliant properties, for example, excellent strength-to-weight ratio. However, its isotropic characteristics might make associated structures perform complicated failure mechanisms under impact loading. Therefore, a better understanding of this mechanism is urgent for its widespread application in the aviation industry. Driven by this, a series of impact tests with various impact velocities were carried out in this project. The Unidirectional (UD) Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) were tested under the drop-weight tower, in which impactors with different geometries were employed. Damage details were acquired by C-scanning, White light Interferometry (WLI), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Optical Microscopy (OM). It was demonstrated that impactor geometry has a considerable influence on the dynamic response and damage behaviour of CFRP panels under low-velocity impact. Furthermore, woven fabric CFRP and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) panels with different dimensions, and the FMLs combined with aluminium plates and woven GFRPs were tested for their ballistic impact performance by employing the gas-gun facility. Panels' out-of-plane displacement during the impact events was recorded in detail via the Three-dimensional (3D) Digital Image Correlation (DIC) implemented by a couple of high-speed cameras. In particular, the oblique high-velocity impacts were conducted to investigate the differences between oblique and normal impacts. Results show that target dimensions, impact energy and impact angles significantly affect these materials' ballistic impact performance.

description: Road environment segmentation plays a significant role in autonomous driving. Numerous works based on Fully Convolutional Networks (FCNs) and Transformer architectures have been proposed to leverage local and global contextual learning for efficient and accurate semantic segmentation. In both architectures, the encoder often relies heavily on extracting continuous representations from the image, which limits the ability to represent meaningful discrete information. To address this limitation, we propose segmentation of the autonomous driving environment using vector quantization. Vector quantization offers three primary advantages for road environment segmentation. (1) Each continuous feature from the encoder is mapped to a discrete vector from the codebook, helping the model discover distinct features more easily than with complex continuous features. (2) Since a discrete feature acts as compressed versions of the encoder's continuous features, they also compress noise or outliers, enhancing the image segmentation task. (3) Vector quantization encourages the latent space to form coarse clusters of continuous features, forcing the model to group similar features, making the learned representations more structured for the decoding process. In this work, we combined vector quantization with the lightweight image segmentation model MobileUNETR and used it as a baseline model for comparison to demonstrate its efficiency. Through experiments, we achieved 77.0 % mIoU on Cityscapes, outperforming the baseline by 2.9 % without increasing the model's initial size or complexity.

description: Flow boiling within microchannels is an efficient heat removal mechanism by utilizing the latent heat of the fluid. Numerical simulations can resolve the small temporal and spatial scales of the vapor bubbles in the flow boiling process, thus accessing many details of the flow which is unattainable experimentally. Most of the previous studies of flow boiling heat transfer used straight microchannels, even though curved microchannels have potential to further enhance the heat transfer performance. In this study, the flow boiling heat transfer in wavy microchannels is studied via numerical simulation by focusing on the growth of the vapor bubbles. Straight and wavy microchannels are considered for comparison and analysis. The numerical simulations are conducted using the finite volume method to solve the flow and the heat transfer, and the volume of fluid (VOF) method to capture the interface dynamics. The effects of key dimensionless numbers on bubble growth rate and wall heat transfer are quantified, including the Weber number, the Capillary number, and the Jakob number. The results indicate that the wavy structure of the microchannel has a strong effect on the bubble growth and the wall heat transfer in microchannels. As the waviness of the microchannel increases, the bubble grows faster because of the bubble deformation by the wavy channel, the bubble moves faster due to the bubble expansion, and the heat transfer is enhanced by the perturbation of the bubble to the flow. With the large velocity perpendicular to the channel flow direction induced by the waviness, the local Nusselt number of the wavy channel could be high up to 2.6 times higher than the straight channel.

description: Contextual help is effective for learning how to use GUIs by showing instructions and highlights on the actual inter- face rather than in a separate viewer. However, end-users and third-party tech support typically cannot create contex- tual help to assist other users because it requires program- ming skill and source code access. We present a creation tool for contextual help that allows users to apply common computer skills—taking screenshots and writing simple scripts. We perform pixel analysis on screenshots to make this tool applicable to a wide range of applications and plat- forms without source code access. We evaluated the tool’s usability with three groups of participants: developers, in- structors, and tech support. We further validated the ap- plicability of our tool with 60 real tasks supported by the tech support of a university campus.

description: Schulbücher sind wesentliche Druckwerke des pädagogischen Alltags. Sie dienen den Lehrenden als struktureller und inhaltlicher Raster für Lehrinhalte. Den SchülerInnen sollten sie Unterstützung bieten: um Verstandenes zu wiederholen, Nichtverstandenes selbstständig zu erarbeiten und um gelerntes Wissen zu festigen. Für all diese Funktionen kommt der Lesekompetenz eine Schlüsselfunktion zu. Der Grad unserer Bildung fußt nicht zuletzt auf Sprach- und Lesekompetenz. Die soziokulturelle Struktur hat sich (nicht nur) in Österreich während der letzten Jahrzehnte enorm verändert. Im selben Zeitraum hat sich auch die Medienlandschaft („Neue Medien“) gewandelt. All diese Veränderungen des Kommunikationsalltags zeigen auch enorme Einflüsse auf unser Perzeptionsverhalten. Die Facebook-, YouTube- und MTV-Generation denkt vermehrt in Bildern und Animationen. Diese Veränderungen spiegeln sich in der Sprache, im Aufbau und in der Struktur von Schulbüchern aber nicht wider. Im Februar 2010 wurde in der Neuen Mittelschule Lasaberg Tamsweg in Salzburg ein Pilotprojekt, gemeinsam mit SchülerInnen und LehrerInnen, umgesetzt. Eine Modellstadt namens „Menschhausen“ diente als metaphorisches Modell, um 10-14-jährigen SchülerInnen biologische Zusammenhänge des menschlichen Organismus zu vermitteln. Ziel war es, gemeinsam mit rund 150 SchülerInnen innerhalb einer Woche die Biologie des Menschen zu erarbeiten, über Gesundheit und Krankheit zu sprechen und über gesunde und schlechte Ernährung zu diskutieren. 21 Wochen nach Abwicklung dieser gemeinsamen Projektwoche wurde eine „Erfolgskontrolle“ durch einen Fragbogen durchgeführt. Zum Vergleich wurden 14-jährige SchülerInnen zweier weiterer Hauptschulen demselben „Verständnis-Test“ unterzogen. Die 14-jährigen SchülerInnen der Projektschule schnitten bei diesem Test besser ab als die Gleichaltrigen der beiden Vergleichsschulen. Auch die 12-jährigen SchülerInnen der Projektschule zeigten im Kollektiv ein besseres inhaltliches Verständnis des Biologie-Lernstoffes als die um zwei Jahre älteren Jugendlichen in den Vergleichsschulen.

description: The micro-explosion of emulsion droplets plays an important role in promoting atomization, improving combustion efficiency, and reducing pollutant emissions. In this experimental study of the micro-explosion of emulsion droplets, we find that mist can be generated during the heating of emulsion droplets, and the mist generation is closely related to the micro-explosion process. Combined analysis from high-speed images, gas chromatography, and droplet temperature variation shows that the mist generation is due to the condensation of vapor into small droplets as the temperature decreases. Two micro-explosion modes are observed, intense micro-explosion with a large amount of mist and weak micro-explosion with a small amount of mist. Different emulsified fuels are tested, and mist can be produced for all the emulsified fuels. The mist is quantitatively analyzed via digital image processing. According to the mist concentration curve in the micro-explosion process, the micro-explosion mode can be distinguished. The effects of the water and surfactant contents in the emulsion droplets are studied, and the mists are used to characterize the micro-explosion. Increasing the water content can promote the vaporization of the water phase, increase the strength of micro-explosion, and result in a large amount of mist. Increasing the surfactant content can improve the stability of the emulsion droplet, reduce the probability of intense micro-explosion, and hence reduce the mist concentration.

description: Vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cad) expression at endothelial adherens junctions (AJs) stabilizes endothelial barrier. Inflammatory mediators induced VE-cad phosphorylation and ubiquitination promotes its degradation; which in turn destabilizes endothelial barrier to trigger vascular inflammatory responses. However, the intrinsic molecular mechanisms involved in maintaining the basal endothelial barrier stability and the repair of endothelial barrier after vascular injury are poorly understood. Here, we generated endothelial cell (EC)-restricted Tnfaip3 (A20) knockout (A20ΔEC) mice and showed the pivotal role of the deubiquitinase (DUB) function of A20 in regulating the expression of VE-cad at AJs. A20ΔEC mice failed to survive sub-lethal dose of LPS challenge. Consistent with this observation, A20ΔEC mice displayed uncontrolled lung vascular leak and persistent PMN sequestration in lungs in response to LPS. In support of these findings, we observed markedly reduced VE-cad expression in lungs of A20ΔEC mice. Liposome mediated in vivo delivery of WT-A20 but not DUB-inactive (C103A-A20) mutant construct restored VE-cad expression in lungs, suppressed LPS induced lung vascular leak and sequestration of PMNs in lungs of A20ΔEC mice. Further, A20 knockdown in human lung microvascular ECs resulted increased VE-cad phosphorylation on Y685 and Y731, and loss VE-cad expression at AJs. Forced expression of WT-A20 but not DUB-inactive mutant in ECs prevented VE-cad ubiquitination and degradation. Since induced A20 expression promotes resolution of inflammation, we studied the mechanism of A20 induction in response to TLR4 activation in ECs. Here we observed that IRAK-M-mediated NF-κB activation independent of TAK1 is essential for A20 expression in ECs. Importantly, silencing of IRAK-M in mouse lung microvessels suppressed expression of A20 and VE-cad and augmented LPS induced lung vascular inflammatory responses. These findings support that targeting endothelial-A20 expression is a potential therapeutic strategy to restore endothelial barrier integrity in acute lung injury.

description: Droplet breakup is important in many natural and industrial processes, but the current classification of breakup regimes, especially the intermediate breakup regime, is ambiguous. In this study, the transitions of breakup regimes for viscous droplets are investigated experimentally using high-speed imaging taken from a side view and a 45$^{\circ}$ view. Based on the morphology change in the middle of the droplet, the breakup regimes are classified into no-breakup, bag breakup, bag-stamen, low-order multimode, high-order multimode, and shear-stripping breakup. The droplet morphologies in different regimes and the corresponding transitions are discussed in detail. The droplet viscosity dissipates the kinetic energy transferred by the airflow during the initial droplet flattening, and affects the development of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability wave after the flattening. Through the analysis of the droplet deformation and the Rayleigh-Taylor instability with the droplet viscosity taken into account, the transition conditions of different regimes are obtained in a regime map. By further considering the relative velocity loss between the droplet and the airflow, the ranges of the dual-bag breakup in the low-order multimode regime and the droplet retraction in the bag-stamen regime are determined.

description: Evidence in the literature suggests an integrated e-tutorial is more effective than a paper- or video-based tutorial among younger people. Yet, relatively little is known about the effectiveness of an integrated e-tutorial on the older population. This study explored the applicability of an integrated e-tutorial to an older population, focusing on the content area of e-health literacy. A specific integrated e- tutorial, the Online Tutorial Overlay Presenter (OnTOP), was used to add an overlay to the NIHSeniorHealth.gov Website. Features of the overlay were examined thoroughly in seven 2-hour-long participatory design sessions with ten older adults. Several participatory design techniques were used to elicit participants’ preferences for design features of the OnTOP tutorial. These techniques included drawing on the board, voice recording and integration, and peer instruction. Three major themes emerged: 1) using contextual cues to facilitate learning; 2) tailoring to accommodate the learner’s literacy level; and 3) enhancing existing interfaces with multimedia cues. These findings improved the design of OnTOP. They also contribute to the multimedia learning literature, generating empirical evidence about the effects of multimedia learning among the understudied older adult population.

description: This article focuses on different anisotropic models within the framework of a specific modified $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{T},\mathcal{R}_{ζγ}\mathcal{T}^{ζγ})$ gravity theory. The study adopts a static spherically symmetric spacetime to determine the field equations for two different modified models: (i) $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{T},\mathcal{R}_{ζγ}\mathcal{T}^{ζγ})=\mathcal{R}+η\mathcal{R}_{ζγ}\mathcal{T}^{ζγ}$, and (ii) $f(\mathcal{R},\mathcal{T},\mathcal{R}_{ζγ}\mathcal{T}^{ζγ})=\mathcal{R}(1+η\mathcal{R}_{ζγ}\mathcal{T}^{ζγ})$, where $η$ is a constant parameter. To address the additional degrees of freedom in the field equations and obtain their corresponding unique solution, the Durgapal-Fuloria spacetime geometry and MIT bag model are utilized. Matching conditions are applied to determine unknown constants within the chosen spacetime geometry. We adopt a certain range of model parameters to analyze the physical characteristics of the developed models in the interior distribution of a particular compact star candidate 4U 1820-30. Energy conditions and some other tests are also implemented to ensure their viability and stability. Additionally, the disappearing radial pressure constraint is employed to find the values of the model parameter, aligning with the observed information of an array of stars. The study concludes that both of our models are well-behaved and satisfy all necessary conditions, and thus we observe them suitable for the modeling of astrophysical objects.

Machine learning methodology for thermochemistry in turbulent combustion
Creators: name: Ding, Tianjie
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2022

description: Many turbulent combustion simulation methods require the direct numeric integration of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to compute the chemical source term. To obtain accurate simulation results, a complex chemical mechanism with multiple species and a large number of reactions is mandatory, which leads to a large and usually stiff set of ODEs. The direct integration process using such mechanisms is highly time-demanding and has become the most expensive element of a simulation, which hampers the large-scale industrial applications of these simulation methods. In the present work, a new machine learning methodology based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) is proposed for speeding up thermochemistry computations in turbulent combustion simulations. ANNs have been applied for chemistry tabulation in many works, but their employment in complex combustion problems is still limited mainly because of two factors: generalisation and accuracy. The ANN methodology in this work is developed to tackle these two issues. Regarding the first issue, a hybrid flamelet/random data (HFRD) method is proposed for generating the training dataset. The random element can endow the resulting ANNs with increased capacity for generalisation. Regarding the issue of accuracy, a multiple multilayer perceptron (MMLP) approach is developed where several multilayer perceptrons are trained for each species to predict composition states with different magnitudes of concentration changes or initial concentrations, and it is shown that this method can significantly reduce the prediction errors. The proposed approach is used to simulate a wide range of combustion problems, including 1-D laminar flames and different types of turbulent diffusion flames. The methodology is also applied to different fuels/mechanisms, including methane, methane/hydrogen blended fuel, and dimethyl ether. The range of problems simulated indicates that the approach has a great capacity for generalisation. The excellent agreement between ANN simulation results and direct integration simulation results for both major species and minor species fully manifests the high accuracy feature of the methodology. Finally, great savings in computational costs are observed. A speed-up ratio of more than 10 was attained for the reaction step. Such time reduction means that real-time thermochemistry computation is longer an obstacle to turbulent combustion simulations.

Anomala aeneotincta Fairmaire, 1883: 7. Carne 1958: 172; Cassis & Weir 1992: 363.
Diagnosis. Anomala aeneotincta is distinguished from the remaining Australia Anomala species by the combination of the following characters: clypeus hardly reflexed along anterior margin (Fig. 3H); protibia with single tooth along external margin (Fig. 3E); pronotum with marginal bead at base incomplete medially (Fig. 4B) and with lighter, pale yellow lateral margins (Fig. 4G); pygidium dark brown with two longitudinal yellow stripes (Fig. 4F); phallobase about as long as the parameres with broad well-sclerotised ventral plate (Fig 3F, G).
Material examined. New Britain: Rabaul (3, ANIC).
Distribution. New Britain, Papua New Guinea, Australia.
Notes: Carne (1958) records A. aeneotincta from Gordonvale (QLD) and Moore River (WA) but we have not been able to locate these specimens. We have seen old specimens without date from Redlynch, York Peninsula and W. Australia (without locality) that agree with the type description and will key out to this species, but are consistently larger and greener than the specimens from the type locality New Britain.

description: There is growing interest in developing statistical estimators that achieve exponential concentration around a population target even when the data distribution has heavier than exponential tails. More recent activity has focused on extending such ideas beyond Euclidean spaces to Hilbert spaces and Riemannian manifolds. In this work, we show that such exponential concentration in presence of heavy tails can be achieved over a broader class of parameter spaces called CAT($κ$) spaces, a very general metric space equipped with the minimal essential geometric structure for our purpose, while being sufficiently broad to encompass most typical examples encountered in statistics and machine learning. The key technique is to develop and exploit a general concentration bound for the Fréchet median in CAT($κ$) spaces. We illustrate our theory through a number of examples, and provide empirical support through simulation studies.
