description: Buildings are the largest consumer of energy and greatest contributor to climate change in the United States—consuming approximately half of energy produced and contributing close to half of all greenhouse gas emissions. Through computational modeling of millions of theoretical building designs, the choice of cladding material has been shown to hold great potential for reduction of a building’s embodied energy and emissions. This study looks to better inform building architects and engineers when making decisions regarding cladding selection, and introduce advanced material deterioration models into the life cycle assessment of building façade elements. Precast concrete is extensively used for non-structural architectural façades for its durability, speed of enclosure, and structural and aesthetic flexibility. Concrete panels usually require only minimum steel reinforcement due to small mechanical loads. To limit crack growth and resist thermal stresses, steel welded wire fabric (WWF) has conventionally been the reinforcement of choice. Recently, polymer fiber reinforcement has emerged as an effective alternative to reduce long term cracking, while providing increased impact, shatter, and abrasion resistance. While numerous studies have examined the advantages of concrete façade panels, comparative life cycle assessments (LCAs) of façade panels with WWF and fiber reinforcement have not been conducted. This paper contributes to a better understanding of panel environmental impacts by conducting an LCA of a WWF reinforced concrete façade panel reinforced with various polymeric fiber alternatives sourced from North America, Brazil, and China. One result of the study was identification of the durability of concrete façade panels as an important modeling factor. As such, a time dependent service-life model for the durability of each panel based on fiber properties, crack width, transport, and corrosion was implemented.

Design of Sustainable, Efficient, Safe, and Economically Viable Solution for Solar Street Lighting System

description: The combination of solar and LED lighting has enabled interest in the municipalities and governing authorities to consider solar LED lighting as economical and as an efficient choice to lighten streets. Stand-alone/decentralized solar solutions are very popular for these applications. However, these solutions suffer from poor performance due to dust accumulation and difficulty in accessing PV panels for regular maintenance. Further, these solutions need design change in pole’s mechanical structure, often built with customized PV panels and also oversized to take care of no-sunshine days i.e. 3−7 days. To overcome these drawbacks, centralized 230V AC or 48V DC systems have been installed in the field. However, 230V AC or 48V DC systems are inefficient either due to multiple power conversions in the power delivery path or higher distribution losses resulting in higher panel and battery capacities and hence higher cost. This paper proposes unique power architecture i.e. Centralized DC solar street lighting system on 220V DC distribution line, which is 15−20% more energy efficient than inverter based AC centralized solution. This efficiency gain results in less material usage such as lead (in battery), silicon, supporting metal frames, packaging material etc. leading to more environmentally friendly than existing technologies and also lower system capital cost. Further there is also possibility for grid interconnectivity, which will further lead to reduction in battery capacity and hence payback period will be lowered. AC grid system needs accurate prediction system to optimize green energy utilization. With AC backup, centralized system can be designed with only 25%−50% oversizing against 300%−500% in conventional system. Similarly to reduce the cost of electronics, Dual Function Converter (DFC) has been proposed. This results in reduction of number of components, footprint and controller size in centralized system by nearly 50% and enhances reliability by a factor of 2. The proposed solution results in lower solar array and battery capacities, smaller electronics footprints and lower demand of material resource in street lighting poles.

Recycling of Liquid Crystal Displays for Maximum Resource Recovery

description: Hundreds of millions of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) will reach their end of life in the next few years, and most of them have cold cathode fluorescent lamps as the backlights. The backlight lamps contain mercury, which makes shredding the entire unit cost prohibitive since special facilities are needed to avoid mercury release. The mercury containing lamps are located deep in the display panel, and enclosed in the metal frame. This slows down the dismantling process. Currently in the U.S. recyclers are lacking suitable equipment and tools that can speed up the recycling process to make it more profitable. To address this challenge, a research team at Purdue University has developed a four-step procedure for LCD monitor disassembling: 1) case opening, 2) circuit boards detaching, 3) backlight unit and screen assembly separating, and 4) liquid crystal removal and collecting. Appropriate tools for these steps have been designed and fabricated. All the tools can be readily built using low-cost tools available on the market. Using the tools developed the team was able to limit the total disassembling time to less than 4 minutes. Under current market conditions and commodity prices an average LCD monitor with a screen size of 14-18 inches, which represent more than 90% of LCD monitors collected has a breakeven disassembling time in the range of 3 to 5 minutes for a small to medium size e-waste recycler. To maximize recycler profit and resource efficiency, it is recommended that future efforts be focused on: 1) tool optimization for shorter disassembling time; 2) tool durability testing and improvement; 3) system integration; and 4) identifying niche applications of components and materials recovered. In theory similar procedure can be developed for LCD TVs. However, the backlights in LCD TVs are usually less protected and more fragile, which brings addition challenges to the recycling process.

description: This paper empirically models the determinants of “press freedom,” which is an important, if under-studied, institution of good governance. A free press plays a vital economic role in aggregating information, facilitating coordination, reducing transaction costs, increasing transparency, and holding economic and political elites accountable. Therefore actors who believe in sound economic governance should support the creation of an independent press, while those that seek to obscure bad information should oppose it. Drawing on the literature on the nexus of economic globalization and democracy, this study explains economic globalization’s impact on states’ calculations regarding press freedom. Economic globalization is modeled not as a single unified process, but rather as a disaggregated interrelated set of economic and political processes. Using panel data from the period 1993-2006, it finds empirical support for the significant influence of investment ratings, “market–seeking” foreign direct investment, and international aid in promoting press freedom. However these positive influences are countered by with the negative effects of trade liberalization, “efficiency-seeking” FDI, and social instability. Thus economic globalization generates contradictory pressures with respect to press freedom. This is because only certain types of international investment have an interest in greater transparency, while other processes such as trade liberalization can lead to a social backlash and instability, indirectly undermining globalizations positive influences. These results are robust with respect to different estimation techniques and alternative specifications.

description: Accurate modeling of the solvent environment for biological molecules is crucial for computational biology and drug design. A popular approach to achieve long simulation time scales for large system sizes is to incorporate the effect of the solvent in a mean-field fashion with implicit solvent models. However, a challenge with existing implicit solvent models is that they often lack accuracy or certain physical properties compared to explicit solvent models as the many-body effects of the neglected solvent molecules are difficult to model as a mean field. Here, we leverage machine learning (ML) and multi-scale coarse graining (CG) in order to learn implicit solvent models that can approximate the energetic and thermodynamic properties of a given explicit solvent model with arbitrary accuracy, given enough training data. Following the previous ML–CG models CGnet and CGSchnet, we introduce ISSNet, a graph neural network, to model the implicit solvent potential of mean force. ISSNet can learn from explicit solvent simulation data and be readily applied to molecular dynamics simulations. We compare the solute conformational distributions under different solvation treatments for two peptide systems. The results indicate that ISSNet models can outperform widely used generalized Born and surface area models in reproducing the thermodynamics of small protein systems with respect to explicit solvent. The success of this novel method demonstrates the potential benefit of applying machine learning methods in accurate modeling of solvent effects for in silico research and biomedical applications.

Globalization, Domestic Stability and Freedom of the Press
Creators: name: Lewis, Orion
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Sociology
subject: FOS: Sociology
subject: Economics

description: This chapter empirically models the determinants of “press freedom,” which is an important, if under-studied, institution of good governance. A free press plays a vital economic role in aggregating information, facilitating coordination, reducing transaction costs, increasing transparency, and holding economic and political elites accountable. Therefore actors who believe in sound economic governance should support the creation of an independent press, while those that seek to obscure bad information should oppose it. Drawing on the literature on the nexus of economic globalization and democracy, this study explains economic globalization’s impact on states’ calculations regarding press freedom. Economic globalization is modeled not as a single unified process, but rather as a disaggregated interrelated set of economic and political processes. Using panel data from the period 1993-2006, it finds empirical support for the significant influence of investment ratings, “market–seeking” foreign direct investment, and international aid in promoting press freedom. However these positive influences are countered by with the negative effects of trade liberalization, “efficiency-seeking” FDI, and social instability. Thus economic globalization generates contradictory pressures with respect to press freedom. This is because only certain types of international investment have an interest in greater transparency, while other processes such as trade liberalization can lead to a social backlash and instability, indirectly undermining globalizations positive influences. These results are robust with respect to different estimation techniques and alternative specifications.

description: Background: The COVID-19 pandemic and its associated lockdown measures impacted mental health worldwide. However, the temporal dynamics of causal factors that modulate mental health during lockdown are not well understood. Objective: We aimed to understand how a COVID-19 lockdown changes the temporal dynamics of loneliness and other factors affecting mental health. This is the first study that compares network characteristics between lockdown stages to prioritize mental health intervention targets. Methods: We combined ecological momentary assessments with wrist-worn motion tracking to investigate the mechanism and changes in network centrality of symptoms and behaviors before and during lockdown. A total of 258 participants who reported at least mild loneliness and distress were assessed 8 times a day for 7 consecutive days over a 213-day period from August 8, 2020, through March 9, 2021, in Germany, covering a “no-lockdown” and a “lockdown” stage. COVID-19–related worry, information-seeking, perceived restriction, and loneliness were assessed by digital visual analog scales ranging from 0 to 100. Social activity was assessed on a 7-point Likert scale, while physical activity was recorded from wrist-worn actigraphy devices. Results: We built a multilevel vector autoregressive model to estimate dynamic networks. To compare network characteristics between a no-lockdown stage and a lockdown stage, we performed permutation tests. During lockdown, loneliness had the highest impact within the network, as indicated by its centrality index (ie, an index to identify variables that have a strong influence on the other variables). Moreover, during lockdown, the centrality of loneliness significantly increased. Physical activity contributed to a decrease in loneliness amid the lockdown stage. Conclusions: The COVID-19 lockdown increased the central role of loneliness in triggering stress-related behaviors and cognition. Our study indicates that loneliness should be prioritized in mental health interventions during lockdown. Moreover, physical activity can serve as a buffer for loneliness amid social restrictions.

description: Capsule Bare ground increases artificial nest predation in olive groves.Aims To assess the effect of different soil management regimes on nest predation rates in olive groves.Methods We performed nest predation experiments with artificial nests during the breeding season in 2013, in two areas of southern Spain. Each artificial nest (n = 300) contained three quail Coturnix eggs, two of which were unmanipulated and the third one was emptied and injected with plaster. Predators were identified by marks on eggs filled with plaster.Results Ground nests were significantly more depredated, irrespective of the presence of ground cover; tree nests were less depredated in fields with ground cover. There was a clear difference in nest predators of ground and tree nests. Rodents were the most frequent predators of tree nests.Conclusion Lower predation rates of tree nests in orchards with ground cover are probably linked to a change in the foraging behaviour of rodents, which in these more complex habitats might be restricted by rodents' own risk of predation. This study underscores the important role of agricultural practices in preserving farmland bird communities, particularly tree-nesting species, suggesting that for this group, implementation of ground cover in olive groves might enhance breeding success by reducing nest predation rates.
