description: Skilled ensemble musicians coordinate with high precision, even when improvising or interpreting loosely-defined notation. Successful coordination is supported primarily through shared attention to the musical output; however, musicians also interact visually, particularly when the musical timing is irregular. This study investigated the performance conditions that encourage visual signalling and interaction between ensemble members. Piano and clarinet duos rehearsed a new piece as their body motion was recorded. Analyses of head movement showed that performers communicated gesturally following held notes. Gesture patterns became more consistent as duos rehearsed, though consistency dropped again during a final performance given under no-visual-contact conditions. Movements were smoother and interperformer coordination was stronger during irregularly-timed passages than elsewhere in the piece, suggesting heightened visual interaction. Performers moved more after rehearsing than before, and more when they could see each other than when visual contact was occluded. Periods of temporal instability and increased familiarity with the music and co-performer seem to encourage visual interaction, while specific communicative gestures are integrated into performance routines through rehearsal. We propose that visual interaction may support successful ensemble performance by affirming coordination throughout periods of temporal instability and serving as a social motivator to promote creative risk-taking.

description: Cholesterol is a central building block in biomembranes, where it induces orientational order, slows diffusion, renders the membrane stiffer, and drives domain formation. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have played a crucial role in resolving these effects at the molecular level; yet, it has recently become evident that different MD force fields predict quantitatively different behavior. Although easily neglected, identifying such limitations is increasingly important as the field rapidly progresses toward simulations of complex membranes mimicking the in vivo conditions: pertinent multicomponent simulations must capture accurately the interactions between their fundamental building blocks, such as phospholipids and cholesterol. Here, we define quantitative quality measures for simulations of binary lipid mixtures in membranes against the C–H bond order parameters and lateral diffusion coefficients from NMR spectroscopy as well as the form factors from X-ray scattering. Based on these measures, we perform a systematic evaluation of the ability of commonly used force fields to describe the structure and dynamics of binary mixtures of palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC) and cholesterol. None of the tested force fields clearly outperforms the others across the tested properties and conditions. Still, the Slipids parameters provide the best overall performance in our tests, especially when dynamic properties are included in the evaluation. The quality evaluation metrics introduced in this work will, particularly, foster future force field development and refinement for multicomponent membranes using automated approaches.

description: Universal quantum error-correction requires the ability of manipulating entanglement of five or more particles. Although entanglement of three or four particles has been experimentally demonstrated and used to obtain the extreme contradiction between quantum mechanics and local realism, the realization of five-particle entanglement remains an experimental challenge. Meanwhile, a crucial experimental challenge in multi-party quantum communication and computation is the so-called open-destination teleportation. During open-destination teleportation, an unknown quantum state of a single particle is first teleported onto a N-particle coherent superposition to perform distributed quantum information processing. At a later stage this teleported state can be readout at any of the N particles for further applications by performing a projection measurement on the remaining N-1 particles. Here, we report a proof-of-principle demonstration of five-photon entanglement and open-destination teleportation. In the experiment, we use two entangled photon pairs to generate a four-photon entangled state, which is then combined with a single photon state to achieve the experimental goals. The methods developed in our experiment would have various applications e.g. in quantum secret sharing and measurement-based quantum computation.

description: The issue of deriving benefits from the fishery resource on a sustainable basis exists in most developing countries. This tends to create a major problem confronting both biologists and economists in managing the fishery. In respose to this issue, this paper explains one possible method to measure the economic benefits from the inland fishery managment. To model the fishery, a bieconomic approach is applied, and the potential applicability of the model in measuring economic benefits is discussed. Surplus production models developed by Schaefer (1954) and Fox (1970) are used. The biological model for the inland fishery starts with the assumption of zero rate of change in biomass all year and of an exact index of relative abundance. Economic models are developed by describing costs-returns of the fishery. Baised on the incorporated biological and economic models, the current fishery managment policy is evaluated and possible economic benefits are assessed.

description: Relation extraction (RE) from large text collections is an important tool for database curation, pathway reconstruction, or functional omics data analysis. In practice, RE often is part of a complex data analysis pipeline requiring specific adaptations like restricting the types of relations or the set of proteins to be considered. However, current systems are either non-programmable web sites or research code with fixed functionality. We present PEDL+, a user-friendly tool for extracting protein–protein and protein–chemical associations from PubMed articles. PEDL+ combines state-of-the-art NLP technology with adaptable ranking and filtering options and can easily be integrated into analysis pipelines. We evaluated PEDL+ in two pathway curation projects and found that 59% to 80% of its extractions were helpful.

description: The possible impacts of projected climate change on Australian agriculture are outlined. The characteristics of climate change that underpin the creation of economic impacts for agriculture are also described and discussed. Climate change is shown to generate spatially and temporally diverse impacts, with many regions likely to experience increased downside risk in agricultural production. Some regions, such as south-west Australia, are projected to be particularly at risk of adverse outcomes associated with climate change. The likely gradual unfolding of climate change, however, may provide farmers in many regions and industries with sufficient time to utilise or develop adaptation strategies. Many of these strategies are likely to be based on farmers’ current responses to climate variability. Investment in R&D and innovation are likely to be important ingredients in facilitating farmers’ adaptation to climate change. Farmers are likely to face additional costs of capital adjustment due to climate change and investment in long-lived climate-dependent agricultural assets such as irrigation infrastructure, new vineyards and timber plantations will become more problematic. Investing in ecological assets in rural regions, especially where these assets may become stranded by climate change, is also increasingly made problematic.
Pseudoenergy, Superenergy, and Energy Radiation via Gravitational Waves in General Relativity

description: For slowly spinning matter the rate of energy loss via radiation of gravitational waves is estimated in General Relativity (GR) within a generally covariant superenergy approach. This estimation differs from Einstein's Quadrupole Formula (EQF) by a suppression factor ($Π\ll1$). For a symmetric two-body-like distribution of scalar matter $Π$ is estimated to be $\ll(v/c)^2(r/R)^2$, where $v$ is orbital velocity of the bodies, $c$ - velocity of light, $r$ - radius of each body, and $R$ -- the inter-body distance. This contradiction with EQF is briefly discussed.

description: Current international frameworks including the Kyoto Protocol and the recently agreed Asia Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate are examined in this paper along with their capacity to mitigate emissions growth. The Partnership shows potential to reduce growth in greenhouse gas emissions by stimulating the enhanced development and uptake of cleaner, more efficient technologies. However, decoupling of economic growth from energy consumption via the uptake of very advanced technologies will be required if atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases are to be stabilised at relatively low levels.
In Australia’s services-dominated economy, should policymakers take any notice of agriculture?

Year: 2006

description: At the start of the twentieth century, agriculture was a very significant sector of the Australian economy, both in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and export terms. By the middle of that century, manufacturing had become dominant. By the end of the century, both had been overshadowed by the services sector, which since the 1970s has progressively expanded to the point where it is claimed to now account for almost 70% of national economic output, four out of every five jobs, and one fifth of exports. These statistics suggest that sectors such as farming and mining no longer matter in the national economy, and yet as the recent drought and the current minerals boom demonstrate, the national economic impact of shocks in these sectors can be much more significant than statistics suggest should be the case. A review of available statistics concerning the Agricultural sector, and linkages between different sectors of the economy provides some indications about why Agricultural sector shocks impact more widely on the economy. It also leads to the conclusion that there is a need for a much better understanding of the interdependencies of different sectors within the economy.

description: This tutorial provides an intuitive and concrete description of the phenomena of electromagnetic nonreciprocity that will be useful for readers with engineering or physics backgrounds. The notion of time reversal and its different definitions are discussed with special emphasis to its relationship with the reciprocity concept. Starting from the Onsager reciprocal relations generally applicable to many physical processes, we present the derivation of the Lorentz theorem and discuss other implications of reciprocity for electromagnetic systems. Next, we identify all possible routes towards engineering nonreciprocal devices and analyze in detail three of them: Based on external bias, based on nonlinear and time-variant systems. The principles of the operation of different nonreciprocal devices are explained. We address the similarity and fundamental difference between nonreciprocal effects and asymmetric transmission in reciprocal systems. In addition to the tutorial description of the topic, the manuscript also contains original findings. In particular, general classification of reciprocal and nonreciprocal phenomena in linear bianisotropic media based on the space- and time-reversal symmetries is presented. This classification serves as a powerful tool for drawing analogies between seemingly distinct effects having the same physical origin and can be used for predicting novel electromagnetic phenomena. Furthermore, electromagnetic reciprocity theorem for time-varying systems is derived and its applicability is discussed.

description: In the light of the recent WMAP results we update the constraints on a class of non standard BBN models with a simultaneous combination of non standard neutrino distributions and extra effective number of neutrinos in the expansion rate. These models can be described in terms of the two parameters Delta N_nu^tot, constrained by the primordial Helium abundance Y_p measurement, and Delta N_nu^rho, constrained by a combination of CMB and primordial Deuterium data. Small deviations from standard BBN are suggested. Different non standard scenarios can be distinguished by a measurement of the difference Delta N_nu^f_nu=Delta N_nu^tot-Delta N_nu^rho. From the current data we estimate Delta N_nu^f_nu simeq -1.4^{+0.9}_{-1.4}, mildly disfavouring solutions with a low expansion rate, characterized by Delta N_nu^f_nu=0 and negative Delta N_nu^rho. Active-sterile neutrino mixing could be a viable explanation only for high values of Y_p gtrsim 0.24. The existence of large positive neutrino chemical potentials xi_i sim 0.05, implying Delta N_nu^rho simeq 0, would be a possible explanation of the data within the analyzed class of non standard BBN models. Interestingly it would also provide a way to evade the cosmological bounds for `class A 3+1' four neutrino mixing models. A scenario with a decaying sterile neutrino is also considered.

description: Many irrigation areas are facing the problems of aging infrastructure and a declining revenue base from which to fund maintenance and repair activities. The push toward full cost recovery for storage and delivery services arising from water reform policies means that some supply utilities will need to consider the strategic rationalisation of infrastructure to remain viable in the long term. Consideration must also be given to the implementation of appropriate charging regimes for infrastructure access to ensure that irrigators are not sub-optimally excluded from the delivery system. Below the point of congestion, non-volumetric charges for access to irrigation infrastructure are analogous to a pricing regime for a non-rival but exclusive good. Two charging models for infrastructure access are analysed in this paper – socialised cost sharing and serial cost sharing – in the context of the efficient provision of a non-rival good. Findings indicate that over-rationalisation may occur under a socialised cost sharing model but that this potential is eliminated under a serial cost sharing model.

description: Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms and "serverless" cloud computing are becoming increasingly popular. Current FaaS offerings are targeted at stateless functions that do minimal I/O and communication. We argue that the benefits of serverless computing can be extended to a broader range of applications and algorithms. We present the design and implementation of Cloudburst, a stateful FaaS platform that provides familiar Python programming with low-latency mutable state and communication, while maintaining the autoscaling benefits of serverless computing. Cloudburst accomplishes this by leveraging Anna, an autoscaling key-value store, for state sharing and overlay routing combined with mutable caches co-located with function executors for data locality. Performant cache consistency emerges as a key challenge in this architecture. To this end, Cloudburst provides a combination of lattice-encapsulated state and new definitions and protocols for distributed session consistency. Empirical results on benchmarks and diverse applications show that Cloudburst makes stateful functions practical, reducing the state-management overheads of current FaaS platforms by orders of magnitude while also improving the state of the art in serverless consistency.

description: Many important economic problems concern an intertemporal choice between alternate dynamical systems. One example is determining the optimal management of alternative production technologies. This significance has motivated a substantial theoretical literature generalising the necessary conditions of Optimal Control Theory to multiple-phase problems. However, gaining detailed insight into their practical management is difficult because suitable numerical solution methods are not available. This paper resolves this deficiency through the development of a flexible and efficient computational algorithm based on a set of necessary conditions derived for finite-time multiple-phase systems. Its effectiveness is demonstrated in an application to a complex crop rotation problem.

description: There are no laws preventing a host government from seizing the capital of a foreign direct investment in its borders and then denying any compensation for the foreign investor. Why do we not see many more expropriations of investor capital by host governments? Compiling a database of expropriations within the minerals sectors of developing countries, I show that there is a cost for expropriation by a host government in the form of lower growth in the sectors of countries that expropriated in the past. It is possible to lose a bad reputation by a host government's actions after expropriation.

title: Biological Periodicity’s Atomic Mechanism Disposes of the “Current Theory” of Evolution

Publisher: name: Organisms. Journal of Biological Sciences
Year: 2021

description: Physics led the way in the creation of Molecular Biology by employing X-ray crystallography in the elucidation of the atomic structure of proteins and DNA. Now it is physics again, by using large accelerators of electrons and neutrons, that is transforming molecular biology into Atomic Biology. This transformation process is guided by the establishment of periodicity, a phenomenon that can now be shown to start with elementary particles, to extend to atoms and macromolecules, and to occur equally among living organisms including humans. Biological periodicity was established in the following properties: vision, regeneration, luminescence, flight, placenta, penis, plant carnivory and mental ability. Significant is that three of these properties do not start at the cell or the organism, as previously thought, but emerge already in crystals and minerals which have no genes, and where organization is decided by atomic and electronic interactions. The punctuated reappearance of a given property, which leads to periodicity, is based on its own evolution of DNA. This is demonstrated by the formation of the placenta, which in plants and in humans, is decided by the same DNA sequences. Also, vision, which appears in the simplest invertebrates as well as in humans results from the action of the same gene Pax6. It is this DNA homology which allows the reappearance of the same pattern, in the most different organisms. The law of periodicity which has been enunciated at the atomic level holds equally well for the periodicity found in living organisms allowing predictions.

description: Simulating the ozone variability at regional scales using chemistry transport models (CTMs) remains a challenge. We designed a multi-model intercomparison to evaluate, for the first time, four regional CTMs on a national scale for Germany. Simulations were conducted with LOTOS-EUROS, REM-CALGRID, COSMO-MUSCAT and WRF-Chem for January 1st to December 31st, 2019, using prescribed emission information. In general, all models show good performance in the operational evaluation with average temporal correlations of MDA8 O3 in the range of 0.77–0.87 and RMSE values between 16.3 μg m−3 and 20.6 μg m−3. On average, better models' skill has been observed for rural background stations than for the urban background stations as well as for springtime compared to summertime. Our study confirms that the ensemble mean provides a better model-measurement agreement than individual models. All models capture the larger local photochemical production in summer compared to springtime and observed differences between the urban and the rural background. We introduce a new indicator to evaluate the dynamic response of ozone to temperature. During summertime a large ensemble spread in the ozone sensitivities to temperature is found with (on average) an underestimation of the ozone sensitivity to temperature, which can be linked to a systematic underestimation of mid-level ozone concentrations. During springtime we observed an ozone episode that is not covered by the models which is likely due to deficiencies in the representation of background ozone in the models. We recommend to focus on a diagnostic evaluation aimed at the model descriptions for biogenic emissions and dry deposition as a follow up and to repeat the operational and dynamic analysis for longer timeframes.

The drought in 2010 has significant impact on the technical efficiency in the whole province; the performance score of each item in Liupanshui City and Southwest Guizhou is very low; the technical efficiency and management efficiency in most regions need to be improved. In order to improve the performance of financial support for agriculture, we need to ensure the scale of input; at the same time, provide appropriate preferential financial policies for agricultural infrastructure, especially the construction of rural water conservancy, development and promotion of agricultural science and technology, and other fields; adopt the way of special check and acceptance of supporting projects to strengthen the use management of the fund for agriculture.

description: The Plan S initiative is expected to radically change the market of scholarly periodicals, resulting in the abandoning of the subscription model in favour of the open access model. This transition poses new challenges, as well as sets new tasks for researchers, managers, librarians and scientific publishers, particularly in countries with transforming economies. In this study, we set out to estimate approximate costs and future prospects associated with the transition of Belarus and Ukraine towards open access to scientific information on the example of publications by researchers from these two countries in Elsevier journals. To this end, we accessed the Scopus database and selected all papers affiliated with Belarus and Ukraine published by Elsevier journals in 2018. Subsequently, we established which of these articles indicated a corresponding author from Ukraine or Belarus, as well as collected journal titles, correspondence addresses, access types and the APC fee for each article. In addition, funding sources were established for each open access article. This allowed us to determine the total amount of money that Ukraine and Belarus would have needed to pay so that all the articles of their researchers, which were published in Elsevier journals in 2018, were available in an open-access form. The obtained results show that Belarus and Ukraine are currently under-investing in the support of scientific publications and subscription to scientific resources, which is necessary for making a transition to the model of open access to scientific literature. The proposed method for calculating the expenses of publishing papers written by researchers from a given country in open access can be used in the preparation of transformative agreements with developing countries.

description: On the basis of financial, scientific and technological, and resource factors constraining modern agricultural development, we analyze a series of effective exploration in the plight of modern agriculture in China. Results show that significant achievements have been made through measures such as increasing agricultural investment, strengthening research and development and popularization of agricultural science and technology, enhancing capital construction, and great improvement has been made in agricultural production, farmers’ living, agricultural science and technology, agricultural industrialization and scale level of land. In line with these, we sum up following experience: insist on ensuring national grain security, increase agricultural investment to lay solid foundation for developing modern agriculture, speed up innovation in mechanism and system, and guide by types through proper planning in accordance with local conditions.

Processing and properties of bio based cellulose-epoxy composites
Creators: name: Terry, Joseph Stuart
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2023

description: Fibre reinforced plastic composites (FRPs) are widely used in engineering applications but there is vast opportunity to develop high performance composites with a lower environmental impact. In this thesis, the use of bio based epoxy as a matrix material, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) as rigid particle reinforcement (toughening filler) and regenerated cellulose fibres as a continuous fibre reinforcement have been examined. The three best performing commercially available bio based epoxy systems possessed good strength (> 68 MPa), tensile modulus (> 3 GPa), toughness (> 140 J m 2) and a reasonable Tg (> 70 °C) with bio based carbon content of 28 %, 39 % and 36.6 % respectively. These properties compare very well with conventional systems, and make them well suited for use in composite applications. MCC and CNC were added to a partially bio based epoxy, at 10 wt. % and 5 wt. % respectively. Different dispersion techniques were performed, and efficacy was compared via thermomechanical and mechanical testing, image analysis of optical micrographs and fractography. For MCC, the best dispersion method was dry sifting, whereas for CNC modified resins three roll milling was more effective. Use of cellulose as particle reinforcement provides an increase in system bio based content, a modest increase to tensile modulus (10 % to 20 %) and a large increase in fracture energy (more than 100 %), at expense of the tensile strain to failure and hence tensile strength, which reduced by up to 10 %. Continuous fibre composite panels were produced using a plain weave regenerated cellulose fabric within a partially bio based epoxy system. The resulting composite, with up to 78 wt. % bio content, shows much promise as it exhibited high tensile modulus and strength for a natural fibre reinforced composite, Et = 14.5 GPa ± 0.8 GPa and σt = 132.3 MPa ± 4.4 MPa respectively.

description: This study presents a critical review of disclosed, documented, and malicious cybersecurity incidents in the water sector to inform safeguarding efforts against cybersecurity threats. The review is presented within a technical context of industrial control system architectures, attack-defense models, and security solutions. Fifteen incidents were selected and analyzed through a search strategy that included a variety of public information sources ranging from federal investigation reports to scientific papers. For each individual incident, the situation, response, remediation, and lessons learned were compiled and described. The findings of this review indicate an increase in the frequency, diversity, and complexity of cyberthreats to the water sector. Although the emergence of new threats, such as ransomware or cryptojacking, was found, a recurrence of similar vulnerabilities and threats, such as insider threats, was also evident, emphasizing the need for an adaptive, cooperative, and comprehensive approach to water cyberdefense.

description: The forest products industry is an important component of local, state, regional, and national economies. Assessing the economic contributions of the forest products industry in the South, one of the leading timber producing region in the world, is crucial. Impact Analysis for Planning (IMPLAN), an input-output model, was used to assess the economic contribution of the forest products industry for the southern United States. Two aspects of economic contribution, direct impacts and the associated Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) multipliers, were compiled for three primary forest products industry sectors (lumber and wood products, paper and allied products, and wood furniture) for 2009, the most recent data available, and compared to study of the industry by Tilley and Munn (2007). The forest products industry proved to be an important source of employment and income for the South in 2009 despite of disproportionate impacts of the current recession. Results of this study will update the baseline economic information and will provide crucial information to concerned authority to strengthen the economic health of the industry.

description: The gravitational radiation-reaction force acting on perfect fluids at 3.5 post-Newtonian order is cast into a form which is directly applicable to numerical simulations. Extensive use is made of metric-coefficient changes induced by functional coordinate transformations, of the continuity equation, as well as of the equations of motion. We also present an expression appropriate for numerical simulations of the radiation field causing the worked out reaction force.
