title: Monetary Policy in an Estimated DSGE Model with a Financial Accelerator
Creators: name: Christensen, Ian
name: Dib, Ali
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2006

description: The authors estimate a sticky-price dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium model with a financial accelerator, à la Bernanke, Gertler, and Gilchrist (1999), to assess the importance of financial frictions in the amplification and propagation of the effects of transitory shocks. Structural parameters of two models, one with and one without a financial accelerator, are estimated using a maximum-likelihood procedure and post-1979 U.S. data. The estimation and simulation results provide some quantitative evidence in favour of the financial-accelerator model. The financial accelerator appears to play an important role in investment fluctuations, but its importance for output depends on the nature of the initial shock.
description: Les auteurs estiment un modèle d'équilibre général dynamique et stochastique où les prix sont rigides et qui intègre un mécanisme d'accélérateur financier, à la Bernanke, Gertler et Gilchrist (1999), afin d'évaluer l'importance des frictions financières dans l'amplification et la propagation des effets des chocs transitoires. Les paramètres structurels des deux modèles étudiés (dont l'un comporte un mécanisme d'accélérateur financier et l'autre pas) sont estimés au moyen de la méthode du maximum de vraisemblance à partir de données américaines remontant jusqu'à 1979. Les résultats des estimations et des simulations effectuées sont favorables, en termes quantitatifs, au modèle de l'accélérateur financier. Ce mécanisme semble jouer un rôle déterminant dans les fluctuations de l'investissement, mais son importance du point de vue de la production dépend de la nature du choc initial.

description: To remedy the lack of a measure that jointly assesses the psychological status and impact of migration stressors among forced migrants, we developed and tested the Screening of Refugees Self-Report (ScoRE-SR) Questionnaire. Four institutions with expertise on posttraumatic symptomatology and/or migration stressors developed the ScoRE-SR through an iterative process also involving consultation with migrants and experts. The measure consists of 54 items on functioning, migration stressors, and posttraumatic symptomatology. It was administered in English, Danish, Arabic, Farsi, Dari, and Tamil to migrants (N = 149) from different countries and residency types (citizen, permanent resident, holder of temporary protection visa, and Asylum Seeker) at refugee assistance institutions in Australia and Denmark. The measure’s internal psychometric properties were evaluated through confirmatory factor analyses and test-retest (at 2–3 months) intraclass correlations. Its convergent validity was evaluated through correlating the measure with questionnaires expected to relate to it. The original 13 theoretical factors of the Score-SR showed adequate model-data fit, but CFAs indicated that a factor structure with 6 broader factors was more appropriate. These factors (emotional distress, anger, concerns about family/friends in other countries, concerns about family/friends in country of resettlement, adjustment/resettlement/practical difficulties, and impairment) were internally consistent, showed adequate temporal stability, and correlated as expected with measures of posttraumatic symptomatology and well-being. The ScoRE-SR is a valid measure of different types of migrants’ distress and/or adjustment, filling a current gap and providing essential information for migrants’ guidance and treatment.

 Description. Adult: length of body 21 to 25 mm; forewing 29 to 33 mm, hindwing 27 to 31 mm. Coloration: body dark brown to black with yellow markings; labrum and clypeus yellow; frons black; vertex with midline black, an anterior black bar and a central black bar with narrow pale spot each side of posterior midline; antenna black; pronotum with broad pale stripe each side of midline, irregular pale streak outside this along posterior one-half; scutellum with lateral pale spots; abdomen black; wing venation almost wholly dark brown, subcosta (especially) with intermediate pale brown areas; hindwing with two broad preapical black bands; femur dark brown with narrow pale preapical band; foretibia and midtibia with two dark brown bands; mesotibia pale except apex; tarsus dark brown except at base of basal tarsomere and distal tarsomere; abdomen black. Chaetotaxy: ocular rim without supraocular setae; forefemur with few, if any, long white setae on anterior face; female lateral gonapophysis with about ten thickened setae; posterior gonapophysis with about twelve thickened apical setae. Structure: antenna slender, club moderately developed; pronotum longer than broad; wings broad; legs slender, distal tarsomere about equal to basitarsus; tibial spurs apically curved, extending at least to apex of tarsomere II; pretarsal claws curved, slightly shorter than tibial spurs; male genitalia long and slender; parameres protuberant with few setae; female with ectoproct not ornamented; posterior gonapophysis large, broad; sternite VII deep; pregenital plate broad and deep, with pronounced dorsolateral arms.
 Larva: with complex color pattern; mesoscutum with tuft of setae medially borne on a stalk.
 Distribution. Australia (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria).
 New record. AUSTRALIA. New South Wales: Pilliga Nature Reserve, 34 km. north Coonabarabran, New South Wales, September 23, 2005, R. Miller & L. Stange, reared (1f, FSCA).
 Discussion. The color pattern of the wings, especially the two broad preapical bands on the hindwing is distinctive. The larva was found in coarse sand. The fact that only one larva was found near the entrance to the cave (Zone 1) suggests that this is not typical behavior for this species.

Serrated Glass Facades: the Influence of Façade Morphology on Aesthetic Quality
Creators: name: Brzezicki, Marcin
Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings
Year: 2018

description: Serrated building envelopes are a very eye-catching element of contemporary architecture. This type of façade in plan resembles the edges of a serrated blade, hence the name. Serrated facades substantially influence the building’s tectonics understood as the relationship between the structural and the artistic form. They also have a major impact both on building physics (increased surface of heat exchange compared to flat facades, solar avoidance – decreased solar gains if properly designed) and on visual appeal. This article examines façade morphology and analyzes the influence of its geometry on the aesthetic quality of the envelope. The morphological analysis includes the serration angle between the wings (acute or obtuse), wing proportions, and façade depth. An exceptional feature of serrated façades is that the optical phenomena on the façade change depending on the viewing angle. This paper discusses various perceptual zones that produce different phenomena, e.g.: (i) single wing visibility, (ii) mutual wing self-reflection, (iii) primary and secondary virtual The presented paper is based on case studies with special attention to morphological and qualitative analysis. Cases serve as visual (photographs) and graphical illustrations(diagrammatic drawings). The paper also includes a brief presentation of selected recently completed case studies.

title: How Far Can Forecasting Models Forecast? Forecast Content Horizons for Some Important Macroeconomic Variables
Creators: name: Galbraith, John W.
name: Tkacz, Greg
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2007

description: For stationary transformations of variables, there exists a maximum horizon beyond which forecasts can provide no more information about the variable than is present in the unconditional mean. Meteorological forecasts, typically excepting only experimental or exploratory situations, are not reported beyond this horizon; by contrast, little generally accepted information about such maximum horizons is available for economic variables. The authors estimate such content horizons for a variety of economic variables, and compare these with the maximum horizons that they observe reported in a large sample of empirical economic forecasting studies. The authors find that many published studies provide forecasts exceeding, often by substantial margins, their estimates of the content horizon for the particular variable and frequency. The authors suggest some simple reporting practices for forecasts that could potentially bring greater transparency to the process of making and interpreting economic forecasts.
description: Lorsque les variables sont stationnarisées, il existe un horizon maximal au delà duquel les prévisions ne contiennent pas plus d’information au sujet de la variable étudiée que la moyenne non conditionnelle. Les prévisions météorologiques sont rarement fournies au delà de cet horizon, sauf dans un contexte expérimental ou exploratoire. Par contraste, on dispose de très peu d’information pertinente sur ces horizons maximaux dans le cas des prévisions économiques. Les auteurs estiment de tels horizons maximaux pour une gamme de variables économiques et les comparent à ceux retenus dans un large éventail de travaux de prévision empiriques. Ils constatent que, dans bon nombre des études publiées, les horizons de prévision dépassent, souvent de façon appréciable, l’horizon maximal qu’ils ont estimé pour la variable économique et la fréquence considérées. Les auteurs suggèrent l’adoption de certaines règles simples qui pourraient conférer une plus grande transparence au processus d’élaboration et d’interprétation des prévisions économiques.

description: We consider a generalized statistical mechanics model for the creation process of cosmic rays which takes into account local temperature fluctuations. This model yields Tsallis statistics for the cosmic ray spectrum. It predicts an entropic index q given by q=11/9 at largest energies (equivalent to a spectral index of alpha=5/2), and an effective temperature given by (5/9)T_H, where kT_H approximately equal to 180 MeV is the Hagedorn temperature measured in collider experiments. Our theoretically obtained formula is in very good agreement with the experimentally measured energy spectrum of primary cosmic rays.

Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings
Year: 2018

description: The economy globalizes. The industries concentrate. The productions become uniform. Cultural specificities disappear. About architecture and glass in architecture, it is the same phenomenon. Is this movement good or not? It is too late to ask the question. This dynamic is irreversible. Nevertheless, in certain cases, on certain projects, it is possible to bring more esthetic, sensibility, humanity and culture. The 100 years of Ferro’s experience in material science provide such base for creativity with outstanding material solutions like s1de ONE and LustReflex. Since 20 years, the Barrois Glass studio works to create bridges between crafts and industry with the objective in esthetic, sensibility, humanity and culture. Associate the rigor and the efficiency of the industry with the creativity and the sensibility of crafts. A decade of s1de ONE projects proving the durability at challenging environmental conditions is reviewed. The latest material developments and application technologies providing new opportunities for creativity is shown. The three outstanding projects—La canopée les Halles in Paris, Le frac in Marseille, Le musée de la Romanité in Nîmes— are presented in detail. Those projects were all studied with the objective to work otherwise.

description: We state and explain the total rate at which a charged non-rotating black hole emits charged particles, taking into account both Hawking radiation and Schwinger pair production simultaneously. We give concrete formulae for this emission rate in certain limits, with the greatest simplification occurring when the black hole is much larger than the particle's Compton wavelength. We provide an interpretation of the result in terms of a tunnelling process, both through the black hole horizon and the surrounding electric field, and comment on how suppression due to tunnelling modifies the emission spectrum.

title: Do We Need the IMF to Resolve a Crisis? Lessons from Past Episodes of Debt Restructuring
Creators: name: Maier, Philipp
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2007

description: This study investigate how debt restructurings have evolved over the decades. Debtors and creditors have a long history of engaging an outsider – a “third party”, such as the IMF – to organise and facilitate debt restructurings. As we show, the importance of these “third parties” has grown over time. At the same time, the financial environment has evolved rapidly, and financial markets have become more liquid and better able to spread risk in recent decades. In today's economic environment, the financial system of many advanced countries is better isolated from the negative consequences of a lengthy restructuring process. Consequently, from the perspective of creditor countries, the fact that “third parties” can facilitate and shorten the restructuring process has become less valuable. That said, emerging economies still benefit from involving a “third party”, as this might help to overcome coordination problems among creditors and signal that the local authorities are effectively dealing with the crisis, which might help to restore confidence. This holds all the more since creditors have better access to litigation nowadays than during earlier episodes of debt restructurings.
description: Nous examinons comment les schémas de restructuration de la dette ont évolué au cours des décennies. Débiteurs et créanciers ont depuis longtemps l'habitude de confier à un tiers, tel le FMI, le soin d'organiser et de faciliter la restructuration d'une dette. Nous montrons que ces tiers ont été appelés à jouer un rôle de plus en plus important au fil des ans. Parallèlement, durant les dernières décennies, le contexte financier a connu une transformation rapide, et les marchés financiers sont devenus plus liquides et mieux à même de répartir les risques. Dans l'environnement économique d'aujourd'hui, le système financier de nombreux pays avancés est mieux protégé contre les conséquences négatives que peut avoir un long processus de restructuration. Par conséquent, la capacité des tiers à faciliter et à accélérer ce processus a perdu de son attrait aux yeux des pays créanciers. Cela dit, les économies émergentes bénéficient toujours de l'intervention de ces tiers. Ces derniers, en effet, peuvent les aider à surmonter les problèmes de coordination entre les créanciers et envoyer le signal que les autorités locales prennent des mesures adéquates pour gérer la crise, ce qui peut contribuer à rétablir la confiance. Ce rôle est d'autant plus important que les créanciers ont aujourd'hui plus de recours qu'ils n'en avaient autrefois face aux débiteurs qui restructurent leur dette.

description: While psychiatric treatment mostly focuses on mental health, comorbid somatic conditions are frequent and often undertreated. This study aimed to bridge the gap by assessing the feasibility of medical consultations for psychiatric inpatients and to identify somatic and lifestyle-related conditions, as well as abnormal paraclinical findings. Secondly, we aimed to identify psychiatric treatments and diagnoses associated with metabolic outcomes. Patients admitted to Department of Psychiatry Vejle, Denmark, between October 2022 and December 2023 were invited to participate in a medical consultation. The consultations gathered data on comorbidities and lifestyle, including smoking habits, alcohol and drug use, and body metrics. Additionally, information on medical treatment and biochemical markers was collected. A total of 238 patients were enrolled [mean age 48.2 ± 18.6 years; 50.8% were men]. Health assessment revealed that 111 (46.6%) were active smokers and 129 (54.2%) had a body mass index (BMI) of ≥ 25 kg/m2. Biochemical analysis showed that 78 (32.8%) had vitamin D levels below 50 nmol/L and 89 (38%) had a low-density lipoprotein level >3 mmol/L. Patients treated with two or more antipsychotic drugs had a significantly higher BMI (4.6 kg/m2, 95% CI: 0.8–8.3) compared with individuals not taking antipsychotic medication. The study demonstrates that medical consultations for hospitalized psychiatric patients are feasible and important, revealing abnormal biochemical markers and significant somatic comorbidities and lifestyle-related conditions. These findings suggest that routine medical assessments could enhance patient treatment and care and guide targeted interventions for metabolic and somatic health issues in psychiatric settings.
Explicit dynamic modelling of architectural glazing subject to blast loading

Publisher: name: Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings
Year: 2016

description: The response of an architectural glazing panel to dynamic loading, such as that from explosions, is analysed using an explicit dynamic finite element algorithm coded into a computer program. This software allows for the simulation of various glazing types, and is capable of predicting displacements and stresses up to cracking of the glass and the hazard level experienced by occupants. A variety of support conditions are available, along with several methods of specifying the blast load. Details and challenges of the numerical algorithm and coding are presented, together with the verification procedure that was performed through comparisons with results from analyses using general-purpose finite element programs and from available literature. In parallel, experimentation was performed to determine the dynamic mechanical properties of glass by testing the material in a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar.

Year: 2007

description: Loan-level data on the uncollateralized overnight loan market is generated using payment data from Canada's Large Value Transfer System (LVTS) and a modified version of the methodology proposed in Furfine (1999). There were on average just under 100 loans extended in this market each day from March 2004 to March 2006 for a total daily value of about $5 billion. This makes the market slightly larger than the brokered repo market but only about one-tenth of the estimate for the direct trade repo market. The implied uncollateralized overnight rate was found to be remarkably stable relative to other measures of the overnight rate. Loan rates are found to vary with market conditions, the size of the loan, and the type (big vs. small) of the borrower and lender.
description: En se fondant sur les données relatives aux paiements du système canadien de transfert de paiements de grande valeur (le STPGV) et sur une variante de la méthode proposée par Furfine (1999), les auteurs génèrent un ensemble de données concernant les transactions conclues sur le marché des prêts à un jour non garantis. En moyenne, un peu moins de 100 prêts ont été consentis chaque jour sur ce marché entre mars 2004 et mars 2006, et le montant quotidien total de ces prêts avoisinait les 5 milliards de dollars. La taille de ce marché est ainsi légèrement supérieure à celle du marché des opérations de pension effectuées par l'entremise d'un intermédiaire, mais ne représente qu'environ un dixième de la taille estimée du marché des opérations de pension directes. Le taux des prêts à un jour non garantis calculé à partir de l'ensemble de données des auteurs se révèle remarquablement stable par rapport à d'autres indicateurs du taux du financement à un jour. Les taux des prêts varient selon les conditions du marché, la taille du prêt et le type d'emprunteur et de prêteur (gros ou petit).

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2007

description: This paper asks: What is the effect of government policy on output and inequality in an environment with education and labor-supply decisions? The answer is given in a general equilibrium model, consistent with the post 1960s facts on male wage inequality and labor supply in the U.S. In the model, education and labor-supply decisions depend on progressive income taxation, the education system, the social security system, and technology-driven wage differentials. Government policies affect output and inequality through two channels. First, a policy change leads to an asymmetric adjustment of working hours and savings of schooled and unschooled individuals. Second, there is a redistribution of the workforce between schooled and unschooled workers. Using a battery of proposed government policies, we demonstrate that skill redistribution dampens the response of wage inequality to a policy change and amplifies the response of output by an additional 1 to 2 percent.
description: Les auteurs cherchent à cerner l'effet des politiques des pouvoirs publics sur la production et l'inégalité dans une économie où les agents ont à choisir entre les études et le travail. Pour y parvenir, ils recourent à un modèle d'équilibre général dont les résultats cadrent avec les faits qui caractérisent à partir de 1961 l'inégalité des salaires et l'offre de travail dans la population masculine aux États-Unis. Dans ce modèle, le choix entre les études et le travail est fonction de plusieurs facteurs : la progressivité de l'impôt sur le revenu, le système éducatif, le régime de sécurité sociale et les écarts salariaux attribuables à l'évolution de la technologie. Par ses politiques, l'État influe sur la production et l'inégalité de deux manières. Toute modification apportée à l'une de ses politiques induit d'abord un ajustement asymétrique du nombre d'heures travaillées et de l'épargne parmi les hommes scolarisés et non scolarisés. Elle entraîne ensuite une redistribution de la main-d'oeuvre entre ces deux groupes de travailleurs. À partir de la simulation de divers scénarios, les auteurs montrent que la hausse de la proportion des travailleurs scolarisés atténue l'incidence d'un changement de politique sur les écarts salariaux mais amplifie la réaction de la production d'un ou de deux points de pourcentage.

Mapping Observations of DNC and HN^13C in Dark Cloud Cores

description: We present results of mapping observations of the DNC, HN^13C, and H^13CO^+ lines (J=1-0) toward 4 nearby dark cloud cores, TMC-1, L1512, L1544, and L63, along with observations of the DNC and HN^13C lines (J=2-1) toward selected positions. By use of statistical equilibrium calculations based on the LVG model, the H_2 densities are derived to be (1.4-5.5)*10^5 cm^-3, and the [DNC]/[HN^13C] ratios are derived to be 1.25-5.44 with a typical uncertainty by a factor of 2. The observed [DNC]/[HNC] ratios range from 0.02 to 0.09, assuming the [^12C]/[^13C] ratio of 60. Distributions of DNC and HN^13C are generally similar to each other, whereas the distribution of H^13CO^+ is more extended than those of DNC and HN^13C, indicating that they reside in an inner part of the cores than HCO^+. The [DNC]/[HN^13C] ratio is rather constant within each core, although a small systematic gradients are observed in TMC-1 and L63. Particularly, no such systematic gradient is found in L1512 and L1544, where a significant effect of depletion of molecules is reported toward the central part of the cores. This suggests that the [DNC]/[HNC] ratio would not be very sensitive to depletion factor, unlike the [DCO^+]/[HCO^+] ratio. On the other hand, the core to core variation of the [DNC]/[HNC] ratio, which range an order of magnitude, is more remarkable than the variation within each core. These results are interpreted qualitatively by a combination of three competing time-dependent processes; gas-phase deuterium fractionation, depletion of molecules onto grain surface, and dynamical evolution of a core.

description: Climatic loads on Insulated Glazed Units (IGU) have been investigated since the early 1990s. Beginning in 1996 a German technical guideline defined the procedure to respect climatic loads in static design of IGUs. Furthermore the required values of climatic changes and thermal changes of Double Glazed Units (DGU) have been determined. In practice, those values have been applied to other systems like Triple Glazed Units (TGU) as well as Double Skin Facades (DSF). In the last two decade’s those values haven not changed. This paper presents the results of a study on IGU’s in summer conditions, evaluating the thermal performance recent constructions. The upgrade from DGU to TGU causes a significant change of the thermal behavior. By adding a third glass layer, the middle glass gets insulated on both sides. In case of solar radiation the middle glass layer absorbs energy and is disabled to release energy. As a result, higher temperatures can be reached on TGU. By considering ventilated or not ventilated DSF’s, external or internal shading devices can influence further changes in the thermal behavior. This paper shows the development of an iterative calculation model by including present European standards. The model is able to deal with factors mentioned above. The results of different facade studies are shown and compared to the DIN 18008 standard. Furthermore the ongoing changes through European prestandards were discussed. Over all the study shows that a more sophisticated approach is necessary to determine correct temperature and climatic loads.

description: The saving of energy has been an important topic for the last years. However, not only for building constructions but also in the field of naval architecture the energy revolution affected the used materials. Insulation glass units (IGU) are used on ships, because of their increased thermal insulation value, but their known problem of durability remains. Already after a few years, naval insulating glass units fog up on the inner site of the glass panes and get unusable. The insulating glass units are exposed to higher stress in the naval environment compared with building constructions. We have to consider comparatively high wind loads that results in thick glass packages. The dead weight of the outer panes are usually transferred via the edge sealant. Structural Sealant Glazing Systems (SSGS) without mechanical self-weight support are commonly used. Furthermore, there is the contact with saline water and high UV-radiation. Because of the movement of the ships around the world, the climatic load assumptions for stationary buildings do not apply. All these loads cause a pillow effect and stress the edge sealant to a point of an increased moisture transfer into the cavity. We conducted two-month artificial ageing tests according to DIN EN 1279-2. The experimental investigation included 67 insulating glass units and reference specimens, which are composed of 4 mm fully tempered glass and 12 mm cavity between the panes. The scope included bent and connected spacers, a variety of secondary sealant systems with an emphasis on novel permanent pressure equalisation structures. After the tests, it was possible to compare the moisture penetration of different edge sealant systems. Furthermore, we compared the aged with reference insulating glass units. We used these data to analyse the impact of the artificial ageing program on the sealants durability. The experimental investigation shows that the climatic loads have a strong influence on the gas transfer through the edge sealants of the insulating glass units. Systems, which enable the insulating glass unit to connect the gas cavity with the ambient air, absorb less moisture compared with reference systems. The results will allow us to evolve more durable sealant systems. Additionally, we can optimise the artificial ageing program for marine glazing products.

description: For the use in structural glazing (SSG) applications a new generation of warm edge system has been developed. This new technology is a spacer system based on polyisobutylene, especially designed for silicone sealed units, which replaces the conventional edge seal components: metal or plastic spacer, desiccant and primary sealant. In contrast to these components, this hot applied spacer system is an integrated polymer matrix incorporating the desiccant, which meets the high requirements regarding long term stability and in particular the demands for noble gas tightness of insulating glass units (IGUs) with silicone secondary sealant. In contrast to rigid spacer frames, this new spacer generation utilizes the whole inner gap size of the IGU to absorb movements caused by environmental stresses and allows full flexibility in shape of IGU. Excellent durability of the edge seal is insured by a chemical bond of the spacer matrix to glass and silicone secondary sealants. Due to the computer controlled application and the low permeability of the spacer the IGUs fulfil the requirements of the EN 1279-3 (gas tightness) even under standard mass production process conditions. This allows for an especially easy production even of triple IGUs, large formats and free shape designs with outstanding accuracy. The innovative reactive thermoplastic spacer is a new milestone in IGU technology with excellent durable energy efficiency for façades and contributes a significant step towards energy sustainability in building envelopes.

title: Exporting and FDI with Endogenous Productivity

description: This paper provides an analysis of how a firm’s decision to serve a foreign market by exporting or by engaging in foreign direct investment (FDI) affects firm productivity, when productivity is endogeneous as a function of training. The main result of our paper is that, with endogeneous productivity, exporting results in lower productivity than does FDI, but exporting may result in higher or lower employment and output than does FDI. We also show that FDI has lower employment, higher training, higher wages and higher productivity than does production for the home market. A further interesting and unexpected result of our model is that exporting results in the same level of training and productivity as does production for the home market. However, under the same demand conditions, the exporting firm employs less labour for foreign production than for home production and, consequently, output for the foreign market is lower than output for the home market. In addition, we investigate the firm's decision to serve the foreign market by exporting or by engaging in FDI and determine parameter values for which either regime is chosen.
description: Les auteures analysent comment la décision d'une firme de s'engager sur un marché extérieur par la voie de l'exportation ou d'un investissement direct à l'étranger influe sur sa productivité, lorsque celle-ci est déterminée de façon endogène par la formation. L'étude révèle que, si la productivité est endogène, les entreprises exportatrices sont moins productives que les entreprises qui investissent directement à l'étranger; toutefois, les niveaux d'emploi et de production des premières sont aussi élevés que ceux des secondes. Les auteures montrent par ailleurs que l'investissement direct à l'étranger s'accompagne de niveaux de formation, de salaire et de productivité supérieurs à ceux qu'implique la production de biens destinés au marché intérieur, mais que le nombre des emplois est moindre. Autre résultat intéressant et inattendu du modèle, l'activité d'exportation se caractérise par les mêmes niveaux de formation et de productivité que la production tournée vers le marché national. Toutefois, sous des conditions de demande équivalentes, la société exportatrice affecte moins de main-d'oeuvre à la production de biens d'exportation qu'à celle de biens destinés au marché intérieur, de sorte qu'elle produit davantage pour celui-ci que pour le marché extérieur. Les auteures étudient également les facteurs soustendant la décision d'une entreprise d'exporter ou d'investir directement à l'étranger et déterminent les valeurs des paramètres qui président au choix de l'un ou de l'autre régime.

description: TRIBE NEMOLEONTINI BANKS 1911   Distribution. Afrotropical; Palaearctic; Oriental; Australian; Nearctic; Neotropical.
 Discussion. This is the largest tribe of antlions with species in all parts of the temperate to tropical world except for the Neantarctic Region (Chile and southern Argentina). This tribe is characterized by having the forewing vein 1A bending at sharp angle toward 3A (except some Xantholeon), only 1 or 2 presectoral crossveins in the hindwing, and lacking the male pilula axillaris. In Australia there are three genera containing cave dwelling antlions. These are Eophanes Banks, Stenoleon Tillyard, and Xantholeon Tillyard. Probably all the species of these genera are adapted to living in caves or rock overhangs. Elsewhere, cave dwelling nemoleontine genera are known only from the Western Hemisphere represented by Eremoleon Banks which is a speciose genus with nearly all of the reared species living in caves.

description: The aim was to explore if self-rated psychological symptoms in military veterans covary strong enough with established PTSD scales to make a symptom checklist a useful screening tool. A Swedish sample of military veterans (n = 1,859) responded to a questionnaire which contained a checklist of ten psychological symptoms and a test of PTSD indication. The items measured the situation during the last month. All symptoms had the following response choices: 1 (Never), 2 (Seldom), 3 (Sometimes), 4 (Often) and 5 (Very often). The choices Often and Very often were combined and form the basis of the analysis. The majority of individuals in the military sample reported that they had not experienced any of the ten psychological symptoms often or very often during the last month. Approximately 5% of the men and 9% of the women scored five symptoms or more. Among the men who reported five symptoms or more, about one third scored above a higher established PTSD cut-off value (PCL-4 > 44). The psychological symptom checklist represents a new approach to PTSD indication screening and identification of individuals who may need further support. Clinical assessment of PTSD would be a necessary complement for those that indicate further need. Study strengths include a large sample, use of established scales and a straightforward and simple statistical analysis. The checklist is easy to administer and score. After a brief introduction, it takes about two minutes to complete.

description: The increasing demand for use of laminated glass in building facades is the driving force for new interlayers testing and their implementation. Architects’ and engineers’ requests require searching for new solutions and processes of lamination. Intelligent facades, electrochromic windows, integrated photovoltaics, integrated lighting, enhanced solar control, acoustic pollution reduction, wires incorporation, use of special sealants and glues are some of the design drivers of new laminated structures. Laminated safety glass is composed of two or more glass panes bonded by one or more interlayers. The interlayers are typically soft polymers like polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), polyurethane (PU) or ionomer. Today, there are many interlayers on the market with a large variation in their properties. For some projects, it is a challenging task to choose the optimal interlayer.
