description: Reducing drink driving amongst motorcyclists has been deemed as a potential area for improving road traffic safety in most developing countries. However, research efforts paid on determining the underlying factors of drink driving intention amongst this road user group has been still scant. To fill this gap, this study explored the factors influencing motorcyclists’ intention to drink and drive in Vietnam. A questionnaire survey was conducted with a sample of 451 Vietnamese motorcycle riders. The theory of planned behavior (TPB) was utilized as a frame of reference to address this issue. Apart from the TPB standard variables (i.e., attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control) and extended TPB variables which have been previously investigated in literature (i.e., descriptive norm, past behavior, and risk perception), the present research introduced four extended factors to TPB including social sanctions, physical loss, perception of drink driving enforcement, and perceived ability to influence traffic police to avoid punishment. The results showed significant effects of attitudes toward drink driving, perceived behavioral control, past behavior and social sanctions on motorcyclists’ drink driving intention. In addition, the data showed that both new context-based variables (i.e., “perception of drink driving enforcement” and “perceived ability to influence traffic police to avoid punishment”) were significantly related to drink driving intention. Various underlying factors of motorcyclists’ intention to drink and drive were identified under the TPB framework. The findings provide useful information for road safety interventions in Vietnam. In particular, making enforcement activities more visible to motorcyclists and putting more effort into reducing corruption and other illegal activities in the traffic police sector could be effective measures for obtaining desirable drink driving behaviors.

description: The set ${1, 25, 49}$ is a 3-term collection of integers which forms an arithmetic progression of perfect squares. We view the set ${(1,1), (5,25), (7,49)}$ as a 3-term collection of rational points on the parabola $y=x^2$ whose $y$-coordinates form an arithmetic progression. In this exposition, we provide a generalization to 3-term arithmetic progressions on arbitrary conic sections $\mathcal C$ with respect to a linear rational map $\ell: \mathcal C \to \mathbb P^1$. We explain how this construction is related to rational points on the universal elliptic curve $Y^2 + 4XY + 4kY = X^3 + kX^2$ classifying those curves possessing a rational 4-torsion point.

description: We use Renewal Theory for the estimation and interpretation of the flare rate from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) soft X-ray flare catalogue. It is found, that in addition to the flare rate variability with the solar cycles, a much faster variation occurs. The fast variation on time scales of days and hours down to minute scale appears to be comparable with time intervals between two successive flares (waiting times). The detected fast non-stationarity of the flaring rate is discussed in the framework of the previously published stochastic models of the waiting time dynamics.

description: Road traffic injuries (RTIs) are the leading cause of mortality among children and adolescents. This study aimed to identify and compare the age-specific epidemiology, clinical characteristics and factors related to severe RTIs among children and adolescents who had RTIs. This multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted using data collected between January 2011 and December 2018 in the Emergency Department-based Injury In-depth Surveillance registry in South Korea. A total of 66,632 participants younger than 19 years who presented with RTIs to emergency departments (EDs) were classified under three age groups: preschoolers (age 0–6 years, n = 18,694), elementary school student (age 7–12 years, n = 21,251), and middle and high school student (age 13–18 years, n = 26,687). Data on demographic and injury-related factors were analyzed, and multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the factors related to severe RTIs, which were defined as the Excess Mortality Ratio-based Injury Severity Score ≥16. RTIs among children and adolescents were more common in boys (71.0%), during weekdays (39.7%), in the summer (31.1%), and between 12 noon and 6 pm (47.9%). The most common type of road users were passengers (preschoolers, 46.4%) and cyclists (age 7–12 years and age 13–18 years, 50.1% and 36.2%, respectively). The proportion of head injury was highest in the preschoolers group (57.3%). The length of ED stay, Excess Mortality Ratio-adjusted Injury Severity Score, and the proportion of intensive care unit admission increased with age. Nighttime (0–6 am), vulnerable road users (motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians), and use of emergency medical services were significantly associated with severe injury. The three age groups of patients younger than 19 years with RTIs differed in the types of road user, proportions of injured body regions, and clinical outcomes. In an effort to reduce RTIs to children and adolescents, age-specific focused intervention should be considered. Additionally, the injury severity was found to be associated with nighttime occurrence, vulnerable road users, ED visit through emergency medical services, and nonuse of safety devices across all age group.

description: The paper aims to examine the interdependent relationship between the usage of the seatbelt restraint system and severities of the driver-injury in single-vehicle crashes. This paper developed a comprehensive joint econometric structure − a joint random parameters binary probit-binary probit model − that allows for the simultaneous examination of injury severity of the driver in a crash, and taking into account the fact that seat belt use can be endogenous to the outcomes of driver injury. The developed model is tested using data on drivers-injury severities involved in single-vehicle crashes in Thailand from 2012-2017. In terms of the interdependent relationship between seatbelt use status and driver-injury severities, the findings suggest that drivers who do not use seat belts may demonstrate more dangerous or aggressive driving behaviors (such as speeding), subsequently increasing their likelihood of involvement in severe or fatal crashes. Additionally, the result also shows that drivers who are involved in speeding-related crashes are less likely to wear a seatbelt and have a higher risk of sustaining severe and fatal injuries. The findings also reveal that in crashes, drivers who are young, or operating trucks are less likely to be wearing their seat belts. The study also indicates that severe and fatal crashes are associated with factors such as elderly drivers, alcohol involvement, unbelted drivers, fatigue, depressed medians, and barrier medians. Conversely, a crash in a U-turn area, driving a passenger car, pickup truck, or large truck, or colliding with a guardrail reduces the likelihood of severe and fatal injuries. Neglecting the hidden endogenous effect in statistical analyses could result in an overestimation of the impact of seat belt usage on crash-injury outcomes. The findings of this study can provide valuable insights for relevant authorities aiming to improve driver safety.

description: The objective of this study was to characterize driving safety and the factors affecting it among physicians in combat units in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), who have high workloads and substantial sleep deprivation, which could influence driving safety. This cross-sectional study included physicians in combat units who had a personal vehicle equipped with an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS). The study outcomes included events such as drowsy driving or falling asleep while driving, as well as motor vehicle accidents (MVAs), obtained from self-reports from digital questionnaires, and objective ADAS driving safety scores. Sleep hours, burnout scores (Maslach Burnout Inventory), combat activity levels, and demographic characteristics were obtained through digital questionnaires, and their effects on the outcomes were analyzed. Sixty-four military combat unit physicians were included in the study. No differences in drowsy driving, MVAs, or ADAS scores were found between the 2 combat activity level groups. The results showed that 82% of participants reported dozing off while driving, and this was positively correlated with accelerations (β = 0.19; P = .004) and negatively correlated (adjusted R2 = 21%) with hours of sleep (β = −0.28; P = .001). Eleven percent reported experiencing MVAs, none of whom required hospitalization. The mean ADAS safety score was 87.17 ± 7.54, and this was positively correlated with the cynicism score (β = 1.45; P = .04; adjusted R2 = 4.7%). No association between dozing off/falling asleep while driving and the reported MVAs was found (P = .10 and P = .27, respectively). Physicians in combat units have a low incidence of MVAs and high ADAS scores. This may be attributed to the high safety climate enforced in military units. However, the high rate of dozing off while driving highlights the importance of addressing driving safety in this population.

description: Considering the growth of digital marketing, the present study was conducted by webometrics approach. In this study Iranian university library websites are analyzed from the standpoint of Google search engine optimization (SEO). Moreover, identifying the effective factors of Google SEO is done.
The number of 30 effective components on Google SEO was obtained by using the agreement between two intelligent online SEO analysis tools ‘SEOsitecheckup’ and ‘SEOPtimer’, with a reliability coefficient of 0.77. The number of 17 components were identified with the help of texts and the library method (the numbers of 12 components were common in both methods). The research community consisted of 42 library websites of Iranian universities affiliated with the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology located in major cities of Iran. The data collection tools were the online analysis databases ‘SEOptimer’, ‘Ahrefs’, ‘Similarweb’, and ‘W3 Consortium’ (in addition to the checklist and identified components). The members of the community were analyzed from the standpoint of the 34 measurable components by SEO analysis tools (no need for the manager or administrator of the same website) on the cross-sectional study for six months at the beginning of the year 2020). ‘Excel’ and ‘LibreOffice Click’ software were used to analyze the data.
None of the websites of Iran's university libraries got the final SEO score of 75 out of 100. Only thirty-three percent of Iranian university library websites had observed the ‘digital security certificate’ effective component on SEO. The websites of the central library of Sharif university of technology, and the digital library of Shahid Beheshti university were ranked respectively, from standpoint of the final Google SEO score. Connecting the website to various social networks such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, is necessary to improve Google's SEO score, but it is not sufficient (only one effective component).
The components affecting Google SEO can be divided into two groups. The first category can be adjusted by the administrators of the library website (including 29 components of the checklist offered in this present study and 1 component of the library website's compliance with the rules of the W3 consortium). The second category (including 4 components: ‘bounce rate’, ‘average visit duration’, ‘number of pages indexed in Google’, and ‘number of clicks or visits of uses) can be measured by the feedback of other websites or clicking of the users. Improving SEO-effective components along with having rich content will be valuable together with each other.

description: We study the instrumental features of photons from the peak observed at $E_γ=130$ GeV in the spectrum of Fermi-LAT data. We use the {\sc sPlots} algorithm to reconstruct -- seperately for the photons in the peak and for background photons -- the distributions of incident angles, the recorded time, features of the spacecraft position, the zenith angles, the conversion type and details of the energy and direction reconstruction. The presence of a striking feature or cluster in such a variable would suggest an instrumental cause for the peak. In the publically available data, we find several suggestive features which may inform further studies by instrumental experts, though the size of the signal sample is too small to draw statistically significant conclusions.

description: The fundamental resonances of rapidly rotating Kerr black holes in the eikonal limit are derived analytically. We show that there exists a critical value, $μ_c=\sqrt{{15-\sqrt{193}\over{2}}}$, for the dimensionless ratio $μ\equiv m/l$ between the azimuthal harmonic index $m$ and the spheroidal harmonic index $l$ of the perturbation mode, above which the perturbations become long lived. In particular, it is proved that above $μ_c$ the imaginary parts of the quasinormal frequencies scale like the black-hole temperature: $ω_I(n;μ>μ_c)=2πT_{BH}(n+{1\over 2})$. This implies that for perturbations modes in the interval $μ_c

description: People often fail to employ the best strategies to understand the minds of others. One such overlooked strategy includes perspective getting (i.e., directly asking others what they think). In one experiment conducted virtually, I tested interpersonal accuracy and confidence among participants in the United States and China. Participants were recruited in pairs. One person within each pair was randomly assigned to the role of predictor and asked to predict how their partner would respond to a series of statements about their activity preferences. Pairs were then randomly assigned to one of three conditions: 1) Perspective Getting - All (predictors were instructed to directly ask their partner about each statement), 2) Perspective Getting - Choice (predictors were given the option to directly ask their partner about selected statements), or 3) Control (predictors did not get perspective). Results revealed that predictors were significantly more accurate in predicting their partner’s responses if they got perspective. That is, predictors in the Perspective Getting - All and Choice conditions were more accurate than predictors in the Control condition. In the Perspective Getting - Choice condition, predictors were more accurate on statements they directly got perspective on versus not. Turning to confidence, predictors were overconfident about the accuracy of their predictions in all conditions. Finally, the patterns of results did not vary by country; however, predictors in the United States were overall more accurate than predictors in China. As these results demonstrate, people do not have accurate insight into the effectiveness of getting perspective which has consequences for how we decide to understand and learn about the minds of others.

description: Young drivers are overrepresented in road traffic crashes and fatalities. Distracted driving, including use of a smartphone while driving (SWD), is a major risk factor for crashes for this age group. We evaluated a web-based tool (Drive in the Moment or DITM) designed to reduce SWD among young drivers. A pretest-posttest experimental design with a follow-up was used to assess the efficacy of the DITM intervention on SWD intentions and behaviors, and perceived risk (of having a crash and of being apprehended by the police) associated with SWD. One hundred and eighty young drivers (aged 17-25 years old) were randomly assigned to either the DITM intervention or a control group where participants completed an unrelated activity. Self-reported measures of SWD and perceptions of risk were obtained pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention and at a follow-up 25 days after the intervention. Participants who engaged with the DITM showed a significant reduction in the number of times they used their SWD at follow-up compared to their pre-intervention scores. Future intentions to SWD were also reduced from pre-intervention to post-intervention and follow-up. There was also an increase in the perceived risk of SWD following the intervention. Our evaluation of DITM suggests that the intervention had an impact on reducing SWD among young drivers. Further research is needed to establish which particular elements of the DITM are associated with reductions in SWD and whether similar findings would be identified in other age groups.

description: This study addresses the significant contribution of chemical production and use to environmental degradation and human health impacts, emphasizing the shift towards green chemicals and sustainable processes. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is identified as a central method for estimating the environmental impact of products, processes, and services over their entire life cycle. The study particularly focuses on the challenges in obtaining reliable and complete data sets for life cycle inventory, especially for technologies or chemicals at an early stage of development. A systematic literature review was conducted, analyzing publications since 2008. This review aimed to identify methods to reduce data gaps in chemical process inputs and outputs, with a focus on knowledge engineering and data mining, process simulation, predictive LCA using machine learning and multivariate statistics, and computer-aided molecular design. These methods were evaluated for their potential in generating accurate and comprehensive data for LCA. The study found that these methods can be effectively combined to improve the accuracy and reliability of LCA data generation. The applicability of these methods at different Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) was also explored. Despite the uncertainties associated with some methods, such as predictive LCA and computer-aided molecular design, their application is deemed useful at various development stages. The study concludes by emphasizing the role of these methodologies in developing best practices for generating reliable LCA data, supporting informed decision-making towards sustainable chemical production. It also highlights the importance of open science practices in enhancing the transparency and reproducibility of LCA results, which is crucial for addressing potential uncertainties and advancing the field of green chemistry and sustainable processes.

description: In this paper, we study the impact of the inclusion of the recently measured beta decay properties of the $^{102;104;105;106;107}$Tc, $^{105}$Mo, and $^{101}$Nb nuclei in an updated calculation of the antineutrino energy spectra of the four fissible isotopes $^{235, 238}$U, and $^{239,241}$Pu. These actinides are the main contributors to the fission processes in Pressurized Water Reactors. The beta feeding probabilities of the above-mentioned Tc, Mo and Nb isotopes have been found to play a major role in the $γ$ component of the decay heat of $^{239}$Pu, solving a large part of the $γ$ discrepancy in the 4 to 3000\,s range. They have been measured using the Total Absorption Technique (TAS), avoiding the Pandemonium effect. The calculations are performed using the information available nowadays in the nuclear databases, summing all the contributions of the beta decay branches of the fission products. Our results provide a new prediction of the antineutrino energy spectra of $^{235}$U, $^{239,241}$Pu and in particular of $^{238}$U for which no measurement has been published yet. We conclude that new TAS measurements are mandatory to improve the reliability of the predicted spectra.

title: Introductory Lectures: Applying Perturbation and Related Methods to Rationally Describe the “Teapot Effect” Under Capillary and Weak Viscous Action
Creators: name: Scheichl, Bernhard

description: Three lectures on: Introduction and brief overview of the topic of the course. Two examples: (1) "waterfall" as a potential flow (conformal mapping, series truncation method); (2) multi-scale stall of a thin film (free viscous-inviscid interaction, Stokes flow near contact line, Moffatt eddies, "teapot effect").
description: We exemplify the rigorous treatment of capillarity-driven free-surface flows by considering the “teapot effect” as an appealing daily-life phenomenon . To this end, we formulate the problem in full, elucidate its structure for small viscous influence in a first step and then refine the results by scrutinising the underlying potential flow in due detail. Finally, we address the subtleties arising when it comes to the rational inclusion of viscous effects so as to sort the real flow out of a one-parametric class of inviscid-flow solutions (so-called selection problem). This approach shall demonstrate the successful, systematic treatment of complex flow problems, involving a variety of disparate length scales. Amongst others, it is demonstrated how the correctly performed abstraction process can unveil unexpected mechanisms and deepen the understanding of known physical phenomena. Many intriguing questions associated with the effect in focus are found as not settled conclusively yet. This calls for further analytical and numerical progress.

description: We prove an upper bound on sums of squares of minors of {+1, -1} matrices. The bound is sharp for Hadamard matrices, a result due to de Launey and Levin (2009), but our proof is simpler. We give several corollaries relevant to minors of Hadamard matrices, and generalise a result of Turan on determinants of random {+1,-1} matrices.

description: The observation of earth skimming neutrinos has been proposed as a rather sensitive method to detect ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic neutrinos. Energetic cosmic neutrinos can interact inside the rock and produce leptons via a charged current interaction. In the case of an incoming electron neutrino undergoing a charged current interaction, the produced UHE electron will induce an underground electromagnetic shower. At high energy (above 7.7 TeV in standard rock), such showers are subject to LPM (Landau, Pomeranchuk and Migdal) suppression of the radiative processes cross sections (bremsstrahlung and pair production). The consequence of this suppression is that showers are elongated. This effect will increase the detection probability of such events allowing deeper showers to emerge with detectable energies. On the other hand, the photonuclear processes which are usually neglected in electromagnetic showers with respect to radiative processes, turn out to become dominant in the LPM regime and will reduce the shower length. In this work, we have performed a complete Monte Carlo study of an underground shower induced by UHE electrons by taking into account both the LPM suppression and the photonuclear interaction. We will discuss the effects of both of these processes on the shower length and on the detectability of such events by ground arrays or fluorescence telescopes. We show that limits on neutrino fluxes that were obtained using simulations that were obviously neglecting photonuclear processes are overoptimistic and should be corrected.

A systematic and evidence-based approach to assessment of NHS organisational readiness to commence haemodynamic remote monitoring through cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) in routine heart failure care. (SEARCH-HF)
Creators: name: Brahmbhatt, Darshan Harshad
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Background & Aims It is hypothesised that successful remote monitoring (RM) of patients with heart failure (HF) using cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) is related to the context within which the technology is used and integrated into decision-making. There is currently little guidance on how a UK clinic should perform high quality RM. The aim of this project was to provide an evidence-based approach to RM of HF patients by 1) identifying necessary pre-requisite competence to facilitate successful introduction of RM; 2) mapping a care pathway in an NHS setting for CIED-based RM of patients with HF; and 3) developing an assessment matrix of key requirements for optimal CIED-based RM. Methods A mixed-methods study was undertaken incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data from the process of CIED-based RM. Quantitative data were gained from a systematic review of literature on facilitators of, and barriers to, high quality RM. A process mapping workshop was undertaken at the Royal Brompton Hospital to identify the intricacies of the clinical pathway at an experienced RM centre. These data were supplemented by semi-structured interviews with patients and healthcare professionals to develop important themes on RM of HF patients to give a coherent interpretation of the RM process studied. Results After identifying 64 relevant publications and undertaking a process-mapping exercise on initiation of RM and responding to an alert, interviews with 12 patients and seven healthcare professionals were undertaken. The key themes emerging from these data were incorporated into a model RM pathway and pathway-anchored assessment framework. Conclusions This is the first study to investigate barriers to, and facilitators of, high quality CIED-based RM in a UK HF clinic. The tools generated from this study will allow other NHS centres to assess the key organisational, educational and data processing requirements to ensure high quality RM.

description: Recent transport experiments have demonstrated that the rhombohedral stacking trilayer graphene is an insulator with an intrinsic gap of 6meV and the Bernal stacking trilayer one is a metal. We propose a Hubbard model with a moderate $U$ for layered graphene sheets, and show that the model well explains the experiments of the stacking dependent energy gap. The on-site Coulomb repulsion drives the metallic phase of the non-interacting system to a weak surface antiferromagnetic insulator for the rhombohedral stacking layers, but does not alter the metallic phase for the Bernal stacking layers.

description: This year marks 25 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall and with it, the Iron Curtain. The Cold War left a mark on Europe that is still visible today. The ‘holding hostage’ of much of East and Central Europe by Soviet Communist ideology has, since its collapse, left some former communist states struggling to realise true democracy; leaving them on the periphery of a uniting Europe. For the majority of the former Eastern Bloc, European Union (EU) accession has been the reward for successful transition to liberal democracy. However, for the successor of the Soviet Union, this has not been the case. Despite Communism failing in Russia, as it did across the expanse of Eastern Europe; Russia has sought neither EU membership nor liberal democracy. With a pitiable reputation for human rights, fragile relations with neighbouring states and political backsliding into authoritarianism, it is a pertinent time to consider why Russia has chosen such a solitary path. As Europe embraces an increasingly united agenda, events unfolding in Ukraine seem to signal that “...a slow divorce between Russia and the West is quietly underway.” The preceding observations have led to the following research question; “Why have some former Communist states achieved greater levels of democracy than others?” This paper sets out to explore the causes of variance in democracy in former Eastern Bloc states focusing, in this instance, on the theme of memory; ‘collective’ and ‘historical’, to determine a possible correlation between ‘memory policy’; that is, how states remember certain historical events; and democracy.

description: Private quantum channels are the quantum analogue of the classical one-time pad. Conditional expectations and trace vectors are notions that have been part of operator algebra theory for several decades. We show that the theory of conditional expectations and trace vectors is intimately related to that of private quantum channels. Specifically we give a new geometric characterization of single qubit private quantum channels that relies on trace vectors. We further show that trace vectors completely describe the private states for quantum channels that are themselves conditional expectations. We also discuss several examples.
