Taxonomic Revision of Subtribe Compsomantina Giglio-Tos, 1915 (Mantodea: Gonypetidae: Gonypetinae: Gonypetini)
Creators: name: Anderson, Kris
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Entomology

description: Abstract. Taxonomic revision of the subtribe Compsomantina (Gonypetidae: Gonypetinae: Gonypetini) addresses contradictions within the current definition of Compsomantis and redefines its scope along biogeographical parameters, particularly the Wallace and Huxley Lines. New genera and species are proposed, including Macrolatens n. gen., with species such as Macrolatens brunneri n. comb., Macrolatens tanimbari n. sp., and Macrolatens timorensis n. sp. Additionally, Opsomantis is reinstated as a distinct genus with Opsomantis mindoroensis n. comb. and Opsomantis palawanicus n. sp. Two new genera further expands the subtribe: Costavirens n. gen. from the mountainous regions of India and China that includes Costavirens sikkimensis n. sp. and Costavirens sinomontana n. sp. respectively, and Nigrocincta n. gen., which includes Nigrocincta ceylonica (Uvarov, 1927) n. comb. from Sri Lanka. The revision also synonymizes Compsomantis crassiceps with Hapalomantis semirufula and describes Compsogusa nigrovarius n. sp.

description: Mit der seit 2017 geltenden Policy zum Forschungsdatenmanagement empfiehlt das Deutsche Institut für Erwachsenenbildung (DIE) seinen Forschenden die Erstellung FAIRer Daten. In den vergangenen Jahren konnten so erste (Forschungs-)Datensätze einer Nachnutzung durch Dritte zugeführt werden. Es wurde jedoch auch beobachtet, dass durch die Vielzahl an Maßnahmen und einzuhaltender (gesetzlicher) Regelungen sowie einer zusätzlichen Dokumentation der Prozesse und Daten FDM oft als zusätzliche Last empfunden wird. Dieses Spannungsfeld hat zu einer erweiterten, zentralen Unterstützungsstruktur in Form von begleitender, persönlicher Beratung und des Angebots von Hilfsmitteln geführt. Seit 2024 wird am DIE für das Forschungsdatenmanagement der von ihm in einem Kooperationsprojekt großer Institutionen der Bildungsforschung mitentwickelte „Standardisierte Datenmanagementplan für die Bildungsforschung“ (Stamp) eingesetzt. Dieses Werkzeug hat den Anspruch, als „One Stop Shop“ einem Forschungsprojekt in allen Phasen niederschwellig sämtliche nötigen Maßnahmen und Prozesse projektspezifisch aufzuzeigen, vertiefende Informationen sowie weiterführende Materialien an die Hand zu geben.

Der Vortrag geht zunächst auf das Spannungsfeld zwischen den Interessen der Forschenden und den Anforderungen des Forschungsdatenmanagements ein, beleuchtet das institutionelle Beratungsangebot des DIE und stellt den Stamp als disziplinspezifische Lösung zum FDM vor. In einem weiteren Teil wird erörtert, ob der Stamp den formulierten Ansprüchen an ein niederschwelliges FDM gerecht werden kann. Reicht das vorgestellte Instrument aus, das skizzierte Spannungsfeld aufzulösen? Profitieren sowohl Forschende als auch die Beratenden von den angebotenen Hilfsmaterialien und kann der Stamp nach Beendigung des Prozesses dazu beitragen, dass seitens des Instituts mehr und „fairere“ Datensätze einer Nachnutzung zugeführt werden können? Hierzu werden auch Ergebnisse einer ersten Evaluation des Stamps einfließen, die im Winter 2024/25 durchgeführt wird und die Interviews zur Nutzung des Instruments auswertet.

description: In the current climate of heightened terrorist activity, the deliberate release or threat of biological agents like viruses, bacteria, fungi, or their toxins to induce sickness or death among civilians has become a genuine possibility. The most crucial action during a bioterrorist strike is early warning. The possibility of such an occurrence in dental setting is underestimated. Methods and Materials: Seventy five graduate students participated in the research. In a survey on zoonotic diseases, participants were asked whether they were familiar with the transmission from person to person, if the diseases caused significant morbidity and mortality, whether they were simple to produce and disseminate, and whether they posed a high risk of infection. Results: Graph Prism was used to examine the data. A single proportion test was used to determine the “Aware Not Aware” group. The first 10 questions assessed dentists objective knowledge of bioterrorism. The importance of the last six questions was determined by their analysis of dentists’ preparedness and desire to respond to a bioterrorism associated occurrence via perceived knowledge. Conclusion: Given the real danger they may face, dentists needed to be vigilant regarding the prevention, detection, and treatment of zoonotic illnesses transmitted in their offices or as a vector while being commended for their courage in the face of adversity.

description: Is Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) substantially different from Metropolis Monte Carlo dynamics? This is a fundamental question at the time of understanding the most used training algorithm in the field of Machine Learning, but it received no answer until now. Here we show that in discrete optimization and inference problems, the dynamics of an SGD-like algorithm resemble very closely that of Metropolis Monte Carlo with a properly chosen temperature, which depends on the mini-batch size. This quantitative matching holds both at equilibrium and in the out-of-equilibrium regime, despite the two algorithms having fundamental differences (e.g.\ SGD does not satisfy detailed balance). Such equivalence allows us to use results about performances and limits of Monte Carlo algorithms to optimize the mini-batch size in the SGD-like algorithm and make it efficient at recovering the signal in hard inference problems.

description: Synchrotron radiation facilities provide highly polarized X-ray beams across a wide energy range. However, the exact type and degree of polarization varies according to the beamline and experimental setup. To accurately determine the angle and degree of linear polarization, a portable X-ray polarimeter has been developed. This setup consists of a Silicon Drift Detector that rotates around a target made of high-density polyethylene. The imprint generated in the angular distribution of scattered photons at a 90-degree angle from the target has been exploited to determine the beam polarization. Measurements were conducted at the GALAXIES beamline of the SOLEIL Synchrotron. The expected angular distribution of the scattered photons for a given beam polarization was obtained through simulations using the Geant4 simulation toolkit. An excellent agreement between simulations and the collected data has been obtained, validating the setup and enabling a precise determination of the beam polarization.

description: Water treatment processes in chemical engineering play a critical role in addressing environmental challenges and ensuring the sustainability of water resources. This paper examines simulation-driven strategies aimed at enhancing water treatment processes within the domain of chemical engineering. By leveraging advanced simulation techniques and methodologies, engineers can optimize the design, operation, and performance of water treatment systems, thereby mitigating environmental impacts and improving overall efficiency. The review highlights the importance of addressing environmental challenges through innovative approaches in water treatment processes. It underscores the role of simulation-driven strategies in chemical engineering to achieve sustainable solutions for water management. Through a comprehensive review of simulation techniques and case studies, this paper elucidates how simulation-driven approaches can enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of water treatment processes. Furthermore, the review emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of this research, bridging chemical engineering principles with environmental science and technology. By integrating simulation tools with knowledge of water chemistry, fluid dynamics, and process engineering, engineers can develop robust strategies for optimizing water treatment processes while minimizing environmental footprints. Key topics covered include the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), process simulation software, and advanced modeling techniques in the analysis and design of water treatment systems. Case studies illustrating the successful implementation of simulation-driven strategies in various water treatment applications are presented to provide practical insights and demonstrate the potential benefits. Overall, this paper underscores the pivotal role of simulation-driven strategies in advancing water treatment processes in chemical engineering. It advocates for the adoption of innovative approaches to address environmental challenges and promote sustainability in water management practices within the oil and gas industry and other sectors reliant on chemical engineering processes.

The proposed eye-tracking system is based on machine learning algorithms, a standard webcam, and two personal computers that constitute, respectively, the "Measurement Sub-System" performing the test on the patients and the "Test Management Sub-System" used by medical staff for configuring the test protocol, recording the patient data, monitoring the test and storing the test results. The system also integrates an stress estimator based on the measurement of heart rate variability obtained with photoplethysmography.
title: The Development and History of Transportation in Ceylon: A Study of Roads and Railways 1800-1905.
Creators: name: Munasinghe T. G. Indrani
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1972

description: The aim of this Thesis is to analyse the development or the road and rail transport in Ceylon during the period 1800-1905. In addition to detailing the actual development and the associated problems of capital, labour, land and material, it also sheds light on a host of relevant variables as the close relationship with the plantation economy, the purposes and policy of the Government, railways operation and economic and social effects. In the development of roads, we trace how the simple clearing of the jungle to effect a pathway in the initial period, evolved into a comprehensive system of road building where construction of durable strong surfaces, drainage and levelling, and the erection of permanent bridges became normal features. In dealing with roads we emphasize the role of and the problems associated with the requisition of labour as it was the major factor involved. The construction of railways, their ownership and operation by the Government, involved discussions of high finance - loan capital, sinking funds, contracts - and operational procedure - the rate policy, railway maintenance, management, accounting etc. The intricate details involved and the fact that railways came to supersede roads as the major scope of government activity made us to devote more attention on railways. Our study reveals that the concentration of the transport network in plantation regions was an outcome of the then existing circumstances and does not reflect any prejudice against the native population. The concluding chapter points out that the high profits from railway undertakings were large enough even to offset recurrent losses on road maintenance in addition to meeting the repayment of interest on capital and maintenance of railways. Finally, our study while recognising the achievement in transport development during the period as significant, qualifies that there were many regions left without adequate transport facilities.

description: The Internal Linear Combination (ILC) method is commonly employed to extract the cosmic microwave background (CMB) signal from multi-frequency observation maps. However, the performance of the ILC method tends to degrade when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is relatively low, particularly when measuring the primordial $B$-modes to detect the primordial gravitational waves. To address this issue, an enhanced version of the ILC method, known as constrained ILC, is proposed. This method is designed to be more suitable for situations with low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by incorporating additional prior foreground information. In our study, we have modified the constraint Needlet ILC method and successfully improved its performance at low SNR. We illustrate our methods using mock data generated from the combination of WMAP, Planck and a ground-based experiment in the northern hemisphere, and the chosen noise level for the ground-based experiment are very conservative which can be easily achieved in the very near future. The results show that the level of foreground residual can be well controlled. In comparison to the standard NILC method, which introduces a bias to the tensor-to-scalar ratio ($r$) of approximately $0.05$, the constrained NILC method exhibits a significantly reduced bias of only around $5\times10^{-3}$ towards $r$ which is much smaller than the statistical error.

title: The Effects of an Adoption in Hindu and English Law: A Comparative Study.
Creators: name: Capoor, Vishvanath
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1972

description: The subject of the thesis has been dealt with under ten chapters. In each of the chapters the Hindu law has been discussed in its various aspects, including the Smriti law on the subject, the views of the commentators, the judicial decisions and the position under the Anglo- Hindu law, the present law under the Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act 1956, and compared with the corresponding English and other laws on the subject. I have considered or referred to about seven hundred judicial decisions and also given ray own views and suggestions wherever appropriate The first chapter deals, among other toxics, with the object of adoption, and the sources and history of the Hindu and English Adoption laws. The next few chapters deal with the comparative effects of adoption in the two legal systems in the child's natural and adoptive families and the adoptee's right to succeed to relations in the maternal and paternal families of the adoptive father. Chapter Vi deals exhaustively with the important question of the doctrine of 'relation back' from its inception to the latest Supreme Court decisions and the views of different writers on the subject and my own. Other topics- include ante-adoption agreements and the effect of adoption in forms other than the dattaka. I have shown the close similarity between the present day Hindu and English laws of adoption especially in so far as the effects of the institution are concerned as compared to many other countries where the laws are not as strictly logical. I have also discussed why the adoption of daughters should have been recognised even under the Pre-HAMA period. In the concluding chapter I have discussed various current problems especially the necessity of having an adoption law in India for communities other than Hindus also, who at present have no legally recognised adoption law. I have suggested that there should be, for a period, a two-fold legal institution of adoption, one based upon the Sastra (the Dattaka form) and available to Hindus and another of a purely secular kind available to all persons subject to Indian law in this regard, including the Hindus. This appears to me to be the most feasible course to be adopted under the present circumstances in India.

title: "Democratisation" and "Enterprisation" in the Chinese Industrial Enterprise - A Socio-Political Perspective.
Creators: name: Brugger, William
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1971

description: In 1948 the twin policies of "democratisation" and "enterprisation" were put forward for application in Chinese industrial enterprises in the liberated areas. This essay explores the meaning of these two policies in the period of New Democracy down to the first year of the first Five Year Plan (1949-53). "Democratisation" is examined in terms of the establishment of factory management committees and the Democratic Reform Movement which sought to remove "feudal elements" from factory management. We note that a switch occurred from a representative to a participatory definition of democracy. The term "enterprisation" is examined in terms of the establishment of a unified command structure within industrial enterprises, the adoption of a Soviet model of incentive and planning and the conclusion of intra-enterprise contractual agreements. Finally, an attempt is made to specify the roles of enterprise Party and union organisations. The essay notes that throughout the period there occurred a contradiction between policy and resources which was most marked with regard to technically and politically competent personnel. This lack of necessary resources made elements of the Soviet model unrealistic in a Chinese context and sometimes resulted in patterns of organisation and incentive which were not at all in accordance with the prescriptions of that model. The adoption of the Soviet model was further complicated by the rural tradition of the Chinese Communist Party and constant reference is made in this essay both to Yenan in the 1940s and to later periods when older views on organisation and incentive reasserted themselves and when it was seen that many of the problems that began to occur in this early period demanded radical solution. The focus of this essay is political (concerned with power) and sociological (concerned with roles and structures) and relies heavily on secondary sources for economic analysis.

description: All-inorganic halide perovskites have received a lot of attention as attractive alternatives to overcome the stability issues of hybrid halide perovskites that are commonly associated with organic cations. To find a compromise between the optoelectronic properties of CsPbI$_{3}$ and CsPbBr$_{3}$, perovskites with CsPb(Br$_{\rm{x}}$I$_{\rm{1-x}}$)$_{3}$ mixed compositions are commonly used. An additional benefit is that, without sacrificing the optoelectronic properties for applications such as solar cells or LEDs, small amounts of Br in CsPbI$_{3}$ can prevent the inorganic perovskite from degrading to a photoinactive nonperovskite yellow phase. Despite indications that strain in the perovskite lattice plays a role in the stabilization of the material, a full understanding of such strain is lacking. Here we develop a reactive force field (ReaxFF) for perovskites starting from our previous work for CsPbI$_{3}$, we extend this force field to CsPbBr$_{3}$ and mixed CsPb(Br$_{\rm{x}}$I$_{\rm{1-x}}$)$_{3}$ compounds. This force field is used in large-scale molecular dynamics simulations to study perovskite phase transitions and the internal ion dynamics associated with the phase transitions. We find that an increase of the Br content lowers the temperature at which the perovskite reaches a cubic structure. Specifically, by substituting Br for I, the smaller ionic radius of Br induces a strain in the lattice that changes the internal dynamics of the octahedra. Importantly, this effect propagates through the perovskite lattice ranging up to distances of 2 nm, explaining why small concentrations of Br in CsPb(Br$_{\rm{x}}$I$_{\rm{1-x}}$)$_{3}$ (x $\leq$ 1/4) have a significant impact on the phase stability of mixed halide perovskites.

Resilience is critical, as throughout our lives, encountering challenging situations is inevitable. Acting in accordance with one’s true self could potentially decrease dissonance between one’s actions and values. This study aims to better understand the relationship between authenticity and resilience through a naturalistic observational study of video-game live streamers. Gamers who took ownership of their mistakes were classified as authentic, as a common trait of authentic individuals is being true to oneself (Vannini & Franzese, 2008). We hypothesized that video game players who verbally take ownership of their in-game mistakes would have higher resilience scores, as measured by the number of optimistic statements, compared to those who do not take ownership. The results indicate that taking ownership of our mistakes could potentially make us more resilient. Further, these results give validity to examining resilience and authenticity in other domains beyond video games through an experimental design. Taking ownership of mistakes helps foster resilience and therefore it has implications for school-based programs and for parents to encourage their children to be transparent about their faults.

description: As environmental concerns continue to escalate, the integration of sustainability principles into project management practices has emerged as a crucial endeavor across various industries. In the realm of Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, where energy consumption and environmental impact are significant, the incorporation of sustainable practices presents both challenges and opportunities. This review provides an overview of the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating sustainability into HVAC project management. Challenges in integrating sustainability into HVAC project management stem from various factors, including technological limitations, cost considerations, and organizational barriers. Technologically, the adoption of sustainable HVAC solutions often requires investments in advanced equipment and systems, which may not always be readily available or affordable for all projects. Additionally, the upfront costs of implementing sustainable practices can be perceived as prohibitive, especially in industries where budget constraints are prevalent. Moreover, organizational inertia and resistance to change pose significant challenges, as stakeholders may be hesitant to deviate from traditional HVAC methodologies. Despite these challenges, there exist ample opportunities for integrating sustainability into HVAC project management. Advancements in technology, such as the development of energy-efficient HVAC systems and renewable energy integration, provide opportunities to reduce environmental impact while enhancing operational efficiency. Furthermore, the growing emphasis on green building certifications, such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), incentivizes the adoption of sustainable HVAC practices by offering recognition and financial benefits to projects that meet stringent sustainability criteria. Moreover, the increasing awareness of environmental issues and regulatory requirements underscores the importance of integrating sustainability into HVAC project management. By aligning with regulatory standards and industry best practices, organizations can mitigate risks associated with non-compliance while enhancing their reputation as environmentally responsible entities. While challenges persist, the integration of sustainability into HVAC project management presents significant opportunities for organizations to mitigate environmental impact, enhance operational efficiency, and foster a culture of innovation. By addressing these challenges proactively and leveraging available opportunities, organizations can position themselves as leaders in sustainable HVAC project management.

description: We propose a mechanism for engineering chiral interactions in Rydberg atoms via a directional antiblockade condition, where an atom can change its state only if an atom to its right (or left) is excited. The scalability of our scheme enables us to explore the many-body dynamics of kinetically constrained models with unidirectional character. We observe non-ergodic behavior via either scars, confinement, or localization, upon simply tuning the strength of two driving fields acting on the atoms. We discuss how our mechanism persists in the presence of classical noise and how the degree of chirality in the interactions can be tuned, opening towards the frontier of directional, strongly correlated, quantum mechanics using neutral atoms arrays.

description: Recent works like [1] and [2] have explore the possibility of generating 2D illusion image using diffusion based method. But 3D illusion remain unexplored. We investigate the problem of texturing and modeling three-dimensional objects to create illusions. Using a differentiable renderer, an image of an object, such as a cube, may be rendered from several camera positions. We use optimization based method like in [2] to train the texture map of a 3D object and generate illusion with given prompts and camera view. This approach can be extended to various other transformations of the scene, such as by using several configurations of a Rubik’s cube as views, or by viewing several reflective cylinders over a flat texture. We provide quantitative and qualitative assessments of the quality of our illusions through thorough experimentation with a variety of prompts and views. Additionally, we illustrate the effectiveness of our illusions in the real world.

title: The Contributions of the Army to National Integration in Israel: The Case of Oriental Jews.
Creators: name: Roumani, Maurice Moise
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1971

description: It is the purpose of this study to establish how the Army in Israel contributes to the National Integration of Jews who originated in the Middle East and in North Africa and who arrived in Israel en masse after the foundation of the State. To assess this contribution, three steps are followed: 1) The establishment of a methodology as an analytical tool to determine what is meant in Israel by National Integration and the nature of the political formula. 2) The description of three main branches of the Army apparatus, together with their activities, 3) The activities of the Army are evaluated in terms of the political formula in order to determine the direction and success of its contribution to the process of National Integration. The findings of this study show that no soldier is allowed to leave the Army without proficiency and literacy in the Hebrew language, elementary education and some form of vocational training. The IDF ensures that the discharged soldier can earn his living and become a useful member of the society. Recruits are made aware not only of their rights in a democratic society, but also of their obligations towards that society. A strong identification with the land together with knowledge of the land and its history are imparted to all soldiers, both academically and empirically. On the other hand, the IDF's contribution in the areas of education and economic specialization have not been sufficient to integrate Orientals with Ashkenazim, The progress of National Integration has been hindered by the exclusion from the Army of "uneducated" women, the majority of whom are Oriental; by the Army's lack of contribution to ecological dispersion, and by its lack of receptivity to the Oriental's culture and beliefs.
Quantifying the time-varying association between objectively measured physical activity and mortality in US older adults over a 12-year follow-up period: the NHANES 2003–2006 study

description: Objectively measuring physical activity (PA) has consistently shown an association with reduced all-cause mortality risk in cross-sectional studies. However, the strength of this association may change over time. We quantify the time-varying, covariate-adjusted association between the total volume of PA and all-cause mortality over a 12-year follow-up period using Cox regression with a time varying effect of population-referenced quantile total activity count adjusted for traditional risk factors. Analyses focus on participants 50–84 years old with adequate accelerometer wear time and without missing covariates. The findings suggest that (1) the use of baseline PA in Cox models with long follow-up periods may be inappropriate without time-varying effects and (2) the use of accelerometry derived volume of PA in risk score calculations may be most appropriate for short-term to medium-term risk scores.
