description: This paper presents a sensorized vision-enabled prosthetic hand aimed at replicating a natural hand's performance, functionality, appearance, and comfort. The design goal was to create an accessible substitution with a user-friendly interface requiring little to no training. Our mechanical hand uses a camera and embedded processors to perform most of these tasks. The interfaced pressure sensor is used to get pressure feedback and ensure a safe grasp of the object; an accelerometer is used to detect gestures and release the object. Unlike current EMG-based designs, the prototyped hand does not require personalized training. The details of the design, trade-offs, results, and informing the next iteration are presented in this paper.

description: La pandémie de COVID-19 a touché presque tous les pays du monde et de nombreux secteurs. Plusieurs entreprises ont arrêté ou restreint leurs activités, ce qui a entraîné un ralentissement dans tous les secteurs d'activité. Les conséquences de cette crise sont sans précédent et se font sentir dans le monde entier. Les entreprises marocaines ne sont pas exclues de ce bouleversement économique. Elles se retrouvent face à un défi majeur et s'ajustent rapidement pour faire face à l'urgence et adopter de nouvelles pratiques organisationnelles. Le présent article a pour objectif de montrer comment la crise de Covid-19 peut devenir une source d'innovation et un accélérateur de résilience pour des entreprises en quête de pérennité. Pour ce faire, nous avons choisi d'adopter une méthode qualitative au travers d'entretiens semi-directifs accompagnés de leur mode d'emploi de dirigeants et de responsables de six entreprises marocaines de la région de l'oriental. Les résultats de cette recherche mettent en évidence de l'importance de l'innovation comme un outil et d'une valeur organisationnelle fondamentale pour aider les entreprises marocaines à rester résilientes et compétitives face à la pandémie.

title: Social Abstractionism: Abstract Objects, Abstract Space, Sociological Potentialities
Creators: name: Waldock, Brian
Publisher: name: University of Central Lancashire
Year: 2024

description: Arthur Schopenhauer once stated, "we human beings always lead a second, abstract life alongside our concrete life”. When we separate life into that which is concrete and that which is abstract, abstract being that which has no concrete existence, we find that most social life is lived out via the abstract. With the intent of making a founding contribution to a new mode of sociological thought based on this notion, this purely theoretical thesis will explore the possibilities of social abstractionism. Social abstractionist principles will be outlined and demonstrated through utilising two concepts loosely based on Platonist philosophy and the work of Henri Lefebvre: abstract objects and abstract space, respectively. Regarding Platonism, I adopt and adjust the concept of abstract objects. In Platonist thinking, abstract objects have no spatiotemporality, are indestructible, and cannot be changed. Social abstractionism demonstrates that socially produced abstract objects are, in fact, spatial, temporal, malleable, destructible, and fictional. Furthermore, I refashion Henri Lefebvre’s concept of abstract space through a social abstractionist lens to show how abstract objects produced socially dominate abstract spaces. Both concepts, as foundational principles of social abstractionism, are then utilised to demonstrate a hierarchised abstract world through levels of abstract objects which I term the ‘Echelons of
Abstracta’ referring to the notion of each echelon being evermore socially exclusive. As many abstract objects are bureaucratic in nature, I theorise that these abstract objects, whilst not only dominating their own abstract space, also create abstract spaces for the individual which I term interstices. In turn, these interstices create a state of interstitiality through which our lives are imprisoned under a false consciousness of reified abstract objects; an objectively abstract fictional reality. Consequentially, interstitiality induces liminality, our experience of navigating abstract barriers and borders of the interstice. I see social abstractionist principles as contributing towards a mode of thinking capable of both reformulating existing foci of sociology across all areas, and as having significant potential to uncover many new areas of knowledge across the interdisciplinary landscape.

description: RoboPol is a four-channel, one-shot linear optical polarimeter that has been successfully operating since 2013 on the 1.3 m telescope at Skinakas Observatory in Crete, Greece. Using its unique optical system, it measures the linear Stokes parameters $q$ and $u$ in a single exposure with high polarimetric accuracy of 0.1% - 0.15% and 1 degree in polarization angle in the R broadband filter. Its performance marginally degrades in other broadband filters. The source of the current instrumental performance limit has been identified as unaccounted and variable instrumental polarization, most likely originating from factors such as temperature and gravity-induced instrument flexure. To improve the performance of RoboPol in all broadband filters, including R, we have developed a rotating half-wave plate calibrator system. This calibrator system is placed at the beginning of the instrument and enables modulation of polarimetric measurements by beam swapping between all four channels of RoboPol.
 Using the new calibrator system, we observed multiple polarimetric standard stars over two annual observing seasons with RoboPol. This has enabled us to achieve a polarimetric accuracy of better than 0.05 % in both $q$ and $u$, and 0.5 degrees in polarization angle across all filters, enhancing the instrument's performance by a factor of two to three.

description: The Gänstorbridge in Ulm is crossing the Danube with a maximum span of 82,40 m. Among others is the bridge instrumented with 20 ultrasound transducers for structural health monitoring. These special types of ultrasound waves allow for the monitoring of concrete structures with diffuse ultrasound (coda waves). The advantages of the method include large-scale coverage of the geometry by the ultrasound and at the same time immense sensitivity to a wide range of measurable variables. These characteristics of the technology, together with the widespread use of concrete and the aim of preserving aging infrastructure for as long as possible, underline the great potential of coda waves. Instrumented is a 12 m long field in the middle of the bridge. During a closure at night, loading experiments were performed with heavy trucks that were evaluated with a focus on damage detection. To do this, an inverse problem is solved whose solution allows for the localization of damages. The focus of the article is on the presentation of the method, challenges in practical application, and the results of the load tests.

description: Some blockchain networks employ a distributed consensus algorithm featuring Byzantine fault tolerance. Notably, certain public chains, such as Cosmos and Tezos, which operate on a proof-of-stake mechanism, have adopted this algorithm. While it is commonly assumed that these blockchains maintain a nearly constant block creation time, empirical analysis reveals fluctuations in this interval; this phenomenon has received limited attention. In this paper, we propose a mathematical model to account for the processes of block propagation and validation within Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus blockchains, aiming to theoretically analyze the probability distribution of block time. First, we propose stochastic processes governing the broadcasting communications among validator nodes. Consequently, we theoretically demonstrate that the probability distribution of broadcast time among validator nodes adheres to the Gumbel distribution. This finding indicates that the distribution of block time typically arises from convolving multiple Gumbel distributions. Additionally, we derive an approximate formula for the block time distribution suitable for data analysis purposes. By fitting this approximation to real-world block time data, we demonstrate the consistent estimation of block time distribution parameters.

description: As part of the project ``Modernization, reconstruction, and construction of the railway Belgrade - Subotica state border (Kelebija),'' a bridge designed for speeds of up to 200 km/h was constructed over the Danube-Tisa-Danube canal. The bridge, a two-track structure, features a truss continuous support on three spans totaling 154 meters (42+56+56). In the plan view, the bridge appears straight with straight abutments and skewed middle piers. The height between the top and bottom chord measures 9.0 meters, with a spacing of 12.5 meters between the main axes. The main girders are connected to cross beams at the bottom chord level and to wind bracing at the top chord level. The cross beams, composite members made from welded I-profiles and a concrete deck, provide additional support. The steel structure is supported on columns via spherical bearings. Due to operational requirements of the bridge, it became necessary to install a shock transmitter to absorb horizontal forces from braking, starting, and seismic activity. The bridge is supported by piles with a diameter of 1200 mm and lengths ranging from 20 to 23 meters.
To construct the middle pillars of the bridge, cofferdams were necessary in the canal. The steel structure was initially installed on the shore and then moved into its final position through longitudinal launching, facilitated by special temporary supports. The launching process involved the use of 12 sets of hydraulic presses and a launch grid beam to bridge the span during the structure's stretching.
This innovative construction method represents a new trend in bridge construction, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability throughout the project. The use of sustainable practices in both the design and construction phases ensures that the bridge aligns with modern environmental standards while providing essential infrastructure for the region.

description: More than half of the world’s population lives in cities, and this proportion is projected to reach 70% by 2050. This increased urbanisation has fuelled a growing divide among urban dwellers, bringing with it complex exclusions in terms of employment, social and political status within the cities. There is a growing need to transform urban environments into socially inclusive societies that prioritise the needs of the most vulnerable people. Many stakeholder attempts have been made to create more inclusive cities that promote social justice and equity through community gardens in urban areas. This study surveyed community garden farmers to assess the effectiveness of community gardens in addressing social inclusion in Bulawayo city. The results showed that community gardens in urban areas are an important policy tool for achieving social inclusion. The results will be significant to the academia, policymakers, local authorities, and community-based organisations.

description: To achieve realistic and economical results, dynamic assessments of railway bridges require input parameters in me-chanical models that accurately reflect reality. In this regard, the applied damping properties of the structure play a crucial role in predicting resonance effects and evaluating the compatibility between rolling stock and railway bridges. The EN 1991-2 standard specifies damping factors based on the type and span of the structure, but these values are often highly conservative and do not reflect actual conditions. As a result, in-situ measurements are often needed to reclassify bridges that appear critical in preliminary dynamic assessments as non-critical. However, determining damping factors from in-situ measurements often leads to variable results due to the measurement method used and the individual scope of action of the evaluating person interpreting the data. This contribution introduces new evaluation methods and analytical tools for determining damping factors from in-situ measurements, aiming to reduce the scatter of results and minimize the influence of the evaluator's individual scope of action. Based on data from a measurement campaign on 15 existing railway bridges, this contribution dis-cusses new evaluation methods for generating damping factors in both the time and frequency domains. The findings demonstrate that a well-defined evaluation algorithm can significantly reduce the scatter of results, and that the excita-tion method substantially impacts the determined damping factors. Additionally, the paper presents a novel approach for calculating the damping factor of railway bridges without requiring in-situ measurements. This mathematical de-termination of the damping factor offers a realistic alternative to overly conservative standards and enables a more accurate assessment of the dynamic behaviour of railway bridges.

description: Nell’ultima fase del Risorgimento, Francesco De Sanctis scopre nella Commedia di Dante la prima decisiva affermazione della dimensione moderna dell’individualità come fondamento della libertà civile e dell’unità politica di una nuova società italiana. Nell’ordinamento e nel cammino della Commedia De Sanctis riconosce così un paradigma etico fondamentale, in quanto la poesia dantesca tiene insieme «terra» e «cielo», la libera persona umana e la coscienza del generale. E in ciò la Commedia si distingue dalle precedenti visioni e leggende medievali, arrivando a interrogare la nostra coscienza pluralista di moderni.


In the last phase of the ‘Risorgimento’, Francesco De Sanctis discovers in Dante’s Commedia the first decisive affirmation of the modern concept of individuality as the basis for civil liberty and for the political unity of a new Italian society. In the organization and journey of the Commedia De Sanctis thus recognizes a fundamental ethical paradigm, in that Dante’s poetry keeps together «earth» and «heaven», the free human being and the knowledge of the general. And in this way the Commedia differs from previous medieval visions and legends, going so far as to question our pluralistic consciousness of moderns.

description: Esta investigación estudia la relación entre la estructura de liderazgo docente, a partir de los estilos de liderazgo de rango completo, y los resultados de la competencia emprendedora en los estudiantes universitarios, como medio para fomentar desde el aula de clase el emprendimiento. Para ello, el estudio se concentró en analizar esta relación con estudiantes y docentes, en una universidad reconocida durante más de 55 años por su aporte a la formación emprendedora. Aunque se realizaron diferentes acercamientos a la propuesta de investigación, el esquema final de estudio tuvo como eje principal, indagar a estudiantes matriculados en unidades de estudio de emprendimiento (N=434) su apreciación en el aula de clase, para determinar la relación entre la estructura del liderazgo que ejerce el docente y las competencias emprendedoras que se identifican en los estudiantes. Los resultados de la investigación muestran de forma coherente con otras investigaciones, como los estilos de liderazgo transformacional y pasivo evitador principalmente, tienen efectos en el desarrollo de competencias en los procesos pedagógicos. Es incuestionable el efecto que los docentes causan sobre sus estudiantes, pero poco se ha estudiado como el docente en su rol de líder impacta competencias y habilidades de comportamiento para la vida profesional.
description: This research studies the relationship between the structure of teacher leadership, based on full-range leadership styles, and the results of entrepreneurial competence in university students, to promote entrepreneurship from the classroom. To this end, the study focused on analyzing this relationship with students and teachers, at a university recognized for more than 55 years for its contribution to entrepreneurial training. Although different approaches were made to the research proposal, the final scheme of study had as its main axis, to inquire about the appreciation of students enrolled in entrepreneurship study units (N=434) in the classroom, to determine the relationship between the leadership structure exercised by the teacher and the entrepreneurial competencies that are identified in the students. The results of the research show, in a coherent way with other research, how transformational and passive avoidant leadership styles mainly have effects on the development of competencies in pedagogical processes. The effect that teachers have on their students is unquestionable, but little has been studied about how teachers in their role as leaders impact competencies and behavioral skills for professional life.

description: The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) addresses combinatorial optimization challenges by converting inputs to graphs. However, the optimal parameter searching process of QAOA is greatly affected by noise. Larger problems yield bigger graphs, requiring more qubits and making their outcomes highly noise-sensitive. This paper introduces Red-QAOA, leveraging energy landscape concentration via a simulated annealing-based graph reduction.
 Red-QAOA creates a smaller (distilled) graph with nearly identical parameters to the original graph. The distilled graph produces a smaller quantum circuit and thus reduces noise impact. At the end of the optimization, Red-QAOA employs the parameters from the distilled graph on the original graph and continues the parameter search on the original graph. Red-QAOA outperforms state-of-the-art Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based pooling techniques on 3200 real-world problems. Red-QAOA reduced node and edge counts by 28% and 37%, respectively, with a mean square error of only 2%.

description: During the second half of 2019, Hong Kong experienced an unprecedented extent of sociopolitical turmoil as pro-democracy activists protested against amendments to the city’s Fugitive Offenders Ordinance introduced by the first female Chief Executive of the city, Carrie Lam. While politics is discussed at various sites, I analyse the Hong Kong Golden Forum, the only online forum in Hong Kong that possesses a specific subculture (the “golden culture”) to understand if this subculture enhances the “golden rule”—the special way forum members treat others. Whether such a culture of reciprocity is indeed practised, including in times of sociopolitical turmoil, is, however, questionable given that the Forum hosts a much smaller number of female than male members and that offensive and misogynistic behaviours have long been reported in studies on related online forums. Drawing on Jürgen Habermas’s theory of the public sphere and more importantly, studies on misogyny, I ask: (1) is misogyny manifested in the Golden Forum? (2) What are the experiences of female forum members in the Golden Forum? (3) What are the motives of the forum members if engaging in misogyny? And (4) how do forum managers respond to and deal with misogynistic messages, if present? In response to the above research questions, I, first, utilise qualitative content analysis to identify if and how misogyny was manifested in the Golden Forum. Second, I use semistructured interview and qualitative survey to interrogate the viewpoints of the stakeholders of the Forum—forum members and managers—on misogyny in the Forum. In phase 1 of my research project, I explain that manifestations of misogyny in the Golden Forum are culturally specific and widespread. In phase 2, I find that forum members and managers are insensitive to misogyny, which leads to the normalisation of misogyny in the Forum. In conclusion, this thesis presents a comprehensive picture of misogyny in the Forum, raising awareness of both misogyny in the Golden Forum in particular and the manifold ways in which misogyny might also operate in other digital contexts around the world, by conceptualising misogyny as a form of distortion of the digital public sphere.

description: En su artículo 4.º la Ley 86 de 1989, “por la cual se dictan normas sobre sistemas de servicio público urbano de transporte masivo de pasajeros y se proveen recursos para su financiamiento”, estableció como requisito para que la Nación garantizara los créditos externos contratados por las entidades que fueran a desarrollar sistemas de transporte masivo, que estas entidades hubieran pignorado a su favor rentas en cuantía suficiente que cubrieran el pago de por lo menos el 80% del servicio de la deuda total del proyecto. Con el objeto de que los municipios y el Distrito Capital pudieran cumplir con ese requisito, en su artículo 5.º autorizó a los concejos municipales y al distrital para aumentar hasta en un 20% las bases gravables o las tarifas de los gravámenes de su competencia, y a cobrar una sobretasa al consumo de gasolina motor hasta del 20% de su precio al público sobre las ventas de Ecopetrol en la planta o plantas que abastecieran la zona de influencia del respectivo sistema, previo concepto del Consejo de Política Económica y Social –Conpes–.

description: The kth finite subset space of a topological space X is the space exp_k X of non-empty subsets of X of size at most k, topologised as a quotient of X^k. Using results from our earlier paper (math.GT/0210315) on the finite subset spaces of connected graphs we show that the kth finite subset space of a connected cell complex is (k-2)-connected, and (k-1)-connected if in addition the underlying space is simply connected. We expect exp_k X to be (k+m-2)-connected if X is an m-connected cell complex, and reduce proving this to the problem of proving it for finite wedges of (m+1)-spheres. Our results complement a theorem due to Handel that for path-connected Hausdorff X the map on pi_i induced by the inclusion exp_k X --> exp_{2k+1} X is zero for all k and i.

description: Multiple sclerosis progresses differently in each person, and we don't fully understand why. Understanding this is crucial for personalised care, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, and to find ways to stop the disease from worsening. In my PhD, I studied how genes modulate and predict disease severity. I observed that the central nervous system has a bigger role than the immune system in determining disease severity and showed that genes have small but potentially cumulative effects. I also identified specific genetic variations that could be helpful in predicting how well someone responds to treatment.

Le départ du dirigeant des PME familiales marocaines : contexte et performance de l’organisation

description: Au Maroc, les PME dites familiales ayant institué vers les années passées et qui arrivent aujourd’hui à l’étape du départ de leur dirigeant, vont se retrouver face à de nombreux changements au sein de leur organisation. Ce départ est susceptible d'avoir un effet important sur la performance de ces PMEF et ce selon le contexte dont lequel se fait cette transmission : départ subit ou mis à la retraite du dirigeant. Cet article a pour vocation de comprendre quelle est la nature du départ de dirigeant la plus performante et la plus propice pour la pérennité et la continuité intergénérationnelle des PME familiales ? Une étude empirique, fondée sur la méthode d’une étude exploratoire qualitative, est menée sur l'analyse de la performance post-départ du dirigeant de deux études de cas de PMEF marocaines ayant réussi leur passation intergénérationnelle. Les conclusions de la présente étude révèlent que le départ brutal d'un dirigeant crée une crise provisoire et est plus perturbateur qu'une transmission suite à son départ à la retraite, puisque dans ce dernier cas la PMEF anticipe l’événement tout en ayant un certain degré de contrôle, dans la mesure où les dossiers de retraite peuvent être préparés bien à l’avance.

description: "The bridge over Sava River on the highway Kuzmin - Sremska Raca (Serbia), designed by Institute of Transportation CIP, consists of two neighbour bridge structures; each has ~15m wide deck with 2 traffic lanes. The main bridge across Sava River, 330m length, having spans 90+150+90m, consists of 2 steel box beams with 5m constant depth. The trapezoidal single-cell box section, with both-sided cantilevers, has upper flange consisting orthotropic plate. Entire bridge steel structure (5500t) was fabricated in Doka Endustri factory in Turkiye. Two box beams were divided in 23 blocks each, consisting of 7 segments per block. The 21 blocks (15m length, 100-174t weight) and 2 blocks (7,5m length) were assembled at site. Afterwards, the blocks linked together by welding on the concrete platform, were protected for corrosion protection and prepared for the incremental launching. Applying an incremental launching method (ILM) with temporary steel pier in the river and hydraulic systems, the assembled successive sections of 2x15 meters long steel deck were launched into their final positions. The launching was carried out using cables and hydraulic pulling jacks installed on the pier in the river for pulling the bridge structure. The bridge structure was launched over sliding bearings with PTFE-stainless steel devices. The 13 stages of incremental launching process, designed by METALYAPI and DELING, was performed by METALYAPI.
