description: In this Letter we explore the potential of probing new light force-carriers, with spin-independent couplings to the electron and the neutron, using precision isotope shift spectroscopy. We develop a formalism to interpret linear King plots as bounds on new physics with minimal theory inputs. We focus only on bounding the new physics contributions that can be calculated independently of the Standard Model nuclear effects. We apply our method to existing Ca$^+$ data and project its sensitivity to possibly existing new bosons using narrow transitions in other atoms and ions (specifically, Sr and Yb). Future measurements are expected to improve the relative precision by five orders of magnitude, and can potentially lead to an unprecedented sensitivity for bosons within the 10 keV to 10 MeV mass range.

description: Différentes solutions existent pour renforcer la résistance de la zone euro aux chocs économiques. Elles consistent à doter la zone euro d’une capacité budgétaire centralisée qui puisse jouer une fonction de stabilisation macroéconomique. À cet effet, la Commission européenne propose d’ajouter une ligne au budget de l’Union européenne (UE). Le Fonds monétaire international suggère un "fonds pour les mauvais jours". Des économistes se sont intéressés à d’autres solutions telles qu’un système commun d’assurance chômage ou un budget propre de la zone euro. Cet article discute l’utilité et le réalisme de ces solutions.
Adaptations to postural and manual control during tool use
Creators: name: Liddy, Joshua James
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Motor control

description: Tool use is an important area of research in psychology, neurophysiology, and motor behavior because it provides insights into the organization of perception, cognition, and action. Tool use research has traditionally focused on the neural structures or cognitive processes that contribute to body-tool integration, while there has been comparatively little interest in motor control. When tool use actions are studied, adaptations have mainly been examined at the level of manual control, while postural control and multi-segment coordination have received less attention. Examining these components of behavior in the context of tool use is vital for developing a better understanding of how humans integrate tools into goal-directed actions.The goals of this dissertation were to 1) characterize adaptations to postural control over time when performing a manual task with a tool under different levels of postural constraint and determine their relation to manual task performance, 2) examine postural-manual coupling under different levels of postural constraint during tool use, and 3) determine how multi-segment coordination supports postural stability and suprapostural task performance under different levels of postural constraint during tool use. To address these questions, we adopted a sensorimotor adaptation paradigm to examine postural-manual control and multi-segment coordination before, during, and after an extended bout of tool use.Tool-use adaptations were found to extend beyond the end-effector. Postural control played a crucial role in facilitating improvements in the manual control of tools. Placing constraints on posture interfered with these adaptations, disrupting the coordination of postural-manual behaviors during tool use. However, multi-segment coordination was modified to overcome this challenge and facilitate postural stability and manual performance. These results demonstrate that healthy young adults are capable of flexibly recruiting and exploiting available degrees of freedom in a task-dependent manner the potential challenges associated with integrating tools into movements. This dissertation provides preliminary support for the importance of considering postural control in tool use actions and highlights the utility of examining interactions across multiple levels of motor behavior—postural control, manual control, postural-manual coupling, and multi-segment coordination—to elucidate how tools are integrated into complex, goal-directed behaviors.

Adverse Effects

description: Psoriasis is an incurable skin disease affecting about 2-3% of the world's population. Interleukin 17 (IL-17) is a proinflammatory cytokine recognized to play a crucial role in psoriasis etiology and evolution. Monoclonal antibodies targeting IL-17A (secukinumab, ixekizumab) or its receptor (brodalumab) are available for treating psoriasis. However, their high costs, impossibility of use by topical route, and associated adverse events generate a need for identifying new anti-IL17 natural molecules. The goal of this study was to expand on earlier studies showing the beneficial effects of raw pyrolysis bio-oil on regulating IL-8 levels in keratinocytes via inhibiting IL-17. The investigation started by examining the side effects and pharmacological interactions of traditional herbal therapies for psoriasis. The bio-oil fractionation procedure was then revised and improved in the research to produce five different bio-oil fractions, each of which was characterized and put to the test on keratinocytes stimulated with IL-17. The most consistent anti-IL-17 action was seen in the aqueous fraction, which contained three pure compounds. The levels of IL-8 were effectively modulated by the mixture of two of these compounds, namely, acetic acid and acetol. According to RNA-Seq data, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity was found to be negatively regulated by 29 genes. This study was successful in locating effective anti-IL-17 molecules and offering details on their potential mechanisms of action.

Subjects: Corporate governance. Financial reporting. Voluntary disclosure. SME. Italian literature. Strategic perspective.

description: In most studies, the relationships between voluntary disclosure in financial reporting and two main characteristics of the firms are examined. One characteristic is the size of the company, and the other is the company’s listing status. Thus, large and listed firms are extensively investigated in worldwide literature. Less attention is paid to small and medium sized entities which are more than the 90% of the firms both in developed and undeveloped countries.

Purpose of the paper – The paper aims to analyze main factors, both country-specific and not, influencing financial reporting quality and voluntary disclosure in Italian small and medium size entities.

Design/methodology/approach – The paper offer a strategic point of view on the variables influencing voluntary disclosure and financial reporting quality in Italian context. Such variables and the set of cause-effect relationships connecting them are examined on the basis of mainstream literature approaches referring to corporate governance, information systems, internal auditing, accounting regulation, earnings management, and stakeholder theory, by reviewing empirical and theoretical literature.

Findings. The paper focussed on the variables influencing corporate disclosure and financial reporting. A systematic model is proposed.

Research limitations/implications – The study is based on a theoretical basis. Future research aimed at examining, by surveys and case studies, relationships between the variables of the model needs, in order to explain and predict corporate financial disclosures in Italian small and medium sized entities, are planned.

Practical implications – The comprehensive framework developed in this study for organizing and evaluating voluntary disclosures and financial reporting quality is an initial step in the direction of examining both phenomena from a strategic perspective.

Originality/Value - The paper proposes a model of analysis whose systematic structure is not yet developed in the literature

description: With the upsurge of greenhouse gas emissions and rapid depletion of fossil fuels, the pressure on the transportation industry to develop new vehicles with improved fuel economy without sacriﬁcing performance is on the rise. Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs), which employ an internal combustion engine as well as an electric motor as power sources, are becoming increasingly popular alternatives to traditional engine only vehicles. However, the presence of multiple power sources makes HEVs more complex. A signiﬁcant task in developing an HEV is designing a power management strategy, deﬁned as a control system tasked with the responsibility of eﬃciently splitting the power/torque demand from the separate energy sources. Five diﬀerent types of power management strategies, which were developed previously, are reviewed in this work, including dynamic programming, equivalent consumption minimization strategy, proportional state-of-charge algorithm, regression modeling and long short term memory modeling. The eﬀects of these power management strategies on the vehicle performance are studied using a simpliﬁed model of the vehicle. This work also proposes an original power management strategy development using a genetic algorithm. This power management strategy is compared to dynamic programming and several similarities and diﬀerences are observed in the results of dynamic programming and genetic algorithm. For a particular drive cycle, the implementation of the genetic algorithm strategy on the vehicle model leads to a vehicle speed proﬁle that almost matches the original speed proﬁle of that drive cycle.

Identifying Extracellular Matrix Protein Dynamics in Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophy for Regenerative Therapies

Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Biomedical engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Skeletal muscle regeneration is hindered in severe injuries and degenerative diseases, including volumetric muscle loss (VML), due to the failure of current treatments to induce functional tissue growth. Various biological functions in skeletal muscle are supported by the extracellular matrix (ECM), a collection of proteins and glycosaminoglycans. In vivo studies on murine plantaris muscle hypertrophy indicate that ECM remodeling facilitates muscle growth, but a global analysis of ECM protein dynamics during skeletal muscle hypertrophy and repair are unknown. Understanding this influence of the ECM can establish instructive cues for regenerative therapies. Here, we define global proteomic changes throughout stages of plantaris muscle hypertrophy, with an emphasis on characterizing ECM proteins. Synergistic ablation of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles induced a compensatory hypertrophic effect causing a 40% mass increase in the plantaris muscle 28 days post injury. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry revealed the differential abundance of 1233 proteins, including 99 ECM proteins, across five time points. After two days of injury, a significant increase of ECM glycoproteins was observed although the overall collagen abundance decreased. Throughout the duration of injury, the relative abundance of type I collagen decreased while there was an increase of proteins associated with type I collagen fibrillogenesis (types III and V) and basement membrane (types IV and VI). Collectively, these results provide a better understanding of ECM dynamics throughout skeletal muscle hypertrophy. Future studies will evaluate protein synthesis by using non-canonical amino acids to identify newly synthesized proteins. Temporal analysis of protein dynamics symbolic to injury and tissue growth will provide tissue engineers with precise information to develop successful regenerative therapies to restore functional muscle in VML.

description: Sustainability practices have become a focal point for companies globally. Traditionally the adoption of these practices had been forced by environmental regulations, but gradually businesses have started to realise that sustainability can have far-reaching impacts on the social and economic dimensions of those businesses and society at large. Under the umbrella of corporate sustainability, organisations are failing to sharpen their focus to extract the maximum benefits. They are trying to achieve these benefits through better Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) rankings, but this approach may not provide any competitive advantage to those businesses. To achieve a competitive advantage, businesses should have unique, inimitable capabilities that are versatile enough to sense the market dynamics, seize new opportunities, and transform businesses to outperform their competitors. These capabilities are known as dynamic capabilities. Sustainability must be treated as a dynamic capability to respond to changing market dynamics and opportunities. This research has investigated the drivers of dynamic capabilities and corporate sustainability to integrate their common themes and has developed a framework for organisations to successfully convert their sustainability practices into dynamic capabilities for sustained competitive advantage. This research has employed a Dynamic Capabilities (DC) theory lens and acts as a foundation of the “Sustainable Dynamic Capabilities” concept for future research. Through an extensive systematic literature review and by analysing expert interviews, a framework has been put forward to achieve sustained competitive advantage through utilising sustainable dynamic capabilities and achieving corporate sustainability, affirming that 1) sustainable dynamic capabilities lead to sustained competitive advantage, 2) sustainable dynamic capabilities lead to corporate sustainability, 3) corporate sustainability leads to sustainable dynamic capabilities, and 4) corporate sustainability acts as a mediator between sustainable dynamic capabilities and sustained competitive advantage.
The Effect of Fatigue Loading on Electrical Impedance in Open-Hole Carbon Nanofiber-Modified Glass Fiber/Epoxy Composites
Creators: name: Karnik, Ishan Tanay
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: Aerospace materials

description: Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) materials are ideal for the aerospace and automotive industries which require high-strength structures with exceptional specific properties. The unfortunate reality is composite materials are susceptible to complex failure modes and difficult-to-predict damage growth as a result of their heterogeneity and anisotropy. Thus, robust structural health monitoring (SHM) for in-operation tracking of damage formation and accumulation is important for these materials. Self-sensing materials are a strong candidate to replace traditional composite SHM because they do not suffer from the disadvantages of point-based sensing. The piezoresistive effect in nanofiller-modified materials is a common approach to material self-sensing. Research to date in piezoresistivity has predominantly focused on the direct current (DC) response of such materials. This is an important limitation because alternating current (AC) has important advantages – it inherently possesses more information (AC data can relate both impedance magnitude and phase to damage), AC effects can be leveraged for improved damage sensitivity, and AC interrogation can reduce power requirements. Therefore, to develop knowledge that will facilitate the transition to AC, this work explores the effect of high-cycle
fatigue loading on the AC response of carbon nanofiber (CNF)-modified glass fiber/epoxy laminates. In this study, impedance magnitude and phase angle are measured along the length and through the thickness of composite specimens with an open-hole stress concentration
subjected to tension fatigue-loading up to 10 MHz. The collected impedance data is fit to an equivalent circuit model as a function of cycle. These results show that high-cycle fatigue loading does indeed have an appreciable effect on the equivalent circuit behavior of the material. However, clear and definitive trends were not observed thereby suggesting that further research is needed into the basic mechanisms of AC transport in nanocomposites if frequency-dependent transport is to be used to track fatigue loading.

description: Synchrotron radiation and inverse Compton (IC) scattering are the two most essential radiation mechanisms in high energy astrophysics. Synchrotron radiation typically dominates lower energy emission, up to GeV, and IC scattering dominates higher energy gamma-ray emission. In this work, radiation codes are developed to calculate broadband synchrotron and IC spectra for relativistic astrophysical sources: Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) and Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). Our robust radiation code takes into account varying intrinsic plasma properties (e.g., magnetic field evolution), various inverse Compton processes (synchrotron self-Compton and external Compton) while accounting for Klein-Nishina effects, as well as relativistic bulk motion of the emitting plasma.

description: I argue that sich vorstellen (‘imagine’) in German, similar to English imagine , has a use as a fiction verb and a use as a verb of thinking. I follow Vendler (Rev Métaphys Morale 84(2):161–173, 1979) in assuming that the fiction verbs like vorstellen can be used to report acts of subjective imagination (imagined inner experiences) and acts of objective imagination (imagined outer experiences). For sich vorstellen as a verb of thinking we have to distinguish between a use on which it introduces an activity and takes interrogative complements and DPs on a concealed question interpretation as arguments and a use on which it introduces an attitudinal state that can be characterized as betting on the truth of a proposition in a given subject matter. Given the differences in grammar and interpretation I argue that we have to distinguish four lexical entries for German sich vorstellen : imagine EXP-SBJ, imagine EXP-OBJ, imagine PROP-ACT, imagine PROP-STATE. Having laid out all the necessary distinctions to account for the data, I discuss the prospects of reducing the number of lexical entries. I propose that imagine EXP-SBJand imagine EXP-OBJcould be reduced to imagine PROP-ACTif we assume that all reports of experiential imagining can be reduced to reports of propositional imagining that combine the predicate imagine PROP-ACTwith a question of the kind ‘what would it be like?’, following an idea in D’Ambrosio and Stoljar (Synthese 199:12923–12944, 2021). Under this assumption only two lexical entries are needed: an entry for imagine PROP-ACT, a rogative predicate that introduces activities, and imagine PROP-STATEan attitude predicate that takes propositions as arguments and introduces an attitudinal state. The overall result is that the grammar and interpretation of the fiction verb sich vorstellen is much closer to verbs of thinking than one might imagine.

description: Black women appear to be less likely than other groups to report sexual violence (Catalano et al., 2009). There are a number of factors that may potentially impact Black women’s reporting sexual violence, such as fear of shame or rejection from religious congregations or social groups, fear of police officers, and a history of violence amongst family members that may normalize sexual violence to the level of not reporting (Truman & Morgan, 2016). This study examined the connection between the strong Black women’s ideal, trust of law enforcement, and Black identity on Black women’s attitudes towards reporting sexual violence among 112 women. In this study, I also explored the impact of previous sexual violence on Black women’s attitudes towards reporting sexual violence. The responses from participants showed that whether or not someone had experienced sexual violence was a significant predictor of people’s attitudes towards reporting. The participants were significantly more likely to have negative attitudes towards reporting if they had previously experienced sexual violence. In addition, the relationship between mistrust of police and negative attitudes towards reporting sexual violence was more significant when the Black female participant had experienced sexual violence. Future studies should continue to explore the impact of experiencing sexual violence on Black women’s attitudes towards reporting.

description: The paper analyses trade between the most developed economies of the world. The analysis is based on the previously proposed model of international trade. This model of international trade is based on the theory of general economic equilibrium. The demand for goods in this model is built on the import of goods by each of the countries participating in the trade. The structure of supply of goods in this model is determined by the structure of exports of each country. It is proved that in such a model, given a certain structure of supply and demand, there exists a so-called ideal equilibrium state in which the trade balance of each country is zero. Under certain conditions on the structure of supply and demand, there is an equilibrium state in which each country have a strictly positive trade balance. Among the equilibrium states under a certain structure of supply and demand, there are some that differ from the ones described above. Such states are characterized by the fact that there is an inequitable distribution of income between the participants in the trade. Such states are called degenerate. In this paper, based on the previously proposed model of international trade, an analysis of the dynamics of international trade of 8 of the world's most developed economies is made. It is shown that trade between these countries was not in a state of economic equilibrium. The found relative equilibrium price vector turned out to be very degenerate, which indicates the unequal exchange of goods on the market of the 8 studied countries. An analysis of the dynamics of supply to the market of the world's most developed economies showed an increase in China's share. The same applies to the share of demand.

description: As buildings have almost come to a saturation point in most developed countries, the management and maintenance of existing buildings have become the major problem of the field. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the underlying technology to solve this problem. It is a 3D semantic representation of building construction and facilities that contributes to not only the design phase but also the construction and maintenance phases, such as life-cycle management and building energy performance measurement. This study aims at the processes of creating as-built BIM models, which are constructed after the design phase. Point cloud, a set of points in 3D space, is an intermediate product of as-built BIM models that is often acquired by 3D laser scanning and photogrammetry. A raw point cloud typically requires further procedures, e.g. registration, segmentation, classification, etc. In terms of segmentation and classification, machine learning methodologies are trending due to the enhanced speed of computation. However, supervised machine learning methodologies require labelling the training point clouds in advance, which is time-consuming and often leads to inevitable errors. And due to the complexity and uncertainty of real-world environments, the attributes of one point vary from the attributes of others. These situations make it difficult to analyze how one single attribute contributes to the result of segmentation and classification. This study developed a method of producing point clouds from a fast-generating 3D virtual indoor environment using procedural modeling. This research focused on two attributes of simulated point clouds, point density and the level of random errors. According to Silverman (1986), point density is associated with the point features around each output raster cell. The number of points within a neighborhood divided the area of the neighborhood is the point density. However, in this study, there was a little different. The point density was defined as the number of points on a surface divided by the surface area. And the unit is points per square meters (pts/m2). This research compared the performances of a machine learning segmentation and classification algorithm on ten different point cloud datasets. The mean loss and accuracy of segmentation and classification were analyzed and evaluated to show how the point density and level of random errors affect the performance of the segmentation and classification models. Moreover, the real-world point cloud data were used as additional data to evaluate the applicability of produced models.

description: CAL (Computer Assisted Learning) programs are widespread today in schools and families due to the effectiveness of CAL programs in improving students’ learning and task performance. The flourishing of CAL programs in education has brought large amounts of students’ learning data including log data, performance data, mouse movement data, eye movement data, video data, etc. These data can present students’ learning or problem-solving processes and reflect underlying cognitive processes. These data are valuable resources for educators to comprehend students’ learning and difficulties. However, few data analysis methods can analyze and present CAL data for educators quickly and clearly. Traditional video analysis methods can be time-consuming. Current visualization analysis methods are limited to simple charts or visualizations of a single data type. In this dissertation, I propose a visual learning analytic approach to analyze and present students' problem-solving data from CAL programs. More specifically, a visualization system was developed to present students’ problem-solving data, including eye movement, mouse movement, and performance data, to help educational researchers understand student problem-solving processes and identify students’ problem-solving strategies and difficulties. An evaluation experiment was conducted to compare the visualization system with traditional video analysis methods. Seven educational researchers were recruited to diagnose students’ problem-solving patterns, strategies, and difficulties using either the visualization system or video. The diagnosis task loads and evaluators’ diagnosis processes were measured and the evaluators were interviewed. The results showed that analyzing student problem-solving tasks using the proposed visualization method was significantly quicker than using the video method. In addition, diagnosis using the visualization system can achieve results at least as reliable as the video analysis method. Evaluators’ preferences between the two methods are summarized and illustrated in the dissertation. Finally, the implications of the visual analytic approach in education and data visualization areas are discussed.
