Thresholds: enhancing the experience at the Raymond Farm
Creators: name: Shapoval, Sonya Lubov
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: The transition from one space to another is a fundamental element of design that frames the view and the experience. Whether transitions occur inside or outside or between the two, these transitions, or thresholds, are unique to every site.This thesis is a study of thresholds at the Raymond Farm in Bucks County, Pennsylvania along a site transect that includes spaces both inside (the Raymond Farm Center) and outside. As the Raymond Farm Center has been expertly designed to connect to its surroundings it needs no adjustment. This thesis focuses on the study of spatial thresholds, but also stresses the importance of place to create a design that respects the existing beauty of the landscape. Multiple visits were made to the Farm in order to experience the site overall and locate the thresholds that define the experience. During the visits personal experiences were recorded and empirical data were collected to better identify things such as temperature changes, flora species, and the presence of sun or shade and how it affected space. Within this complex landscape, multiple layers of thresholds were identified at various scales. Some were more obvious, while others were hidden to the casual eye.The intention of the design is to draw more awareness to the existing thresholds within the landscape, by enhancing their presence through subtle design interventions that cause the visitor to pause and look again at their surroundings. Inspiration for elements within the design came from the work of the Antonin and Noémi Raymond and George Nakashima.

description: In this thesis an artificial cell is considered a complex chemical system constituted by three integrated subsystems: container, metabolism and information. A bottom-up approach is used to construct artificial cell-like systems through the design and testing of individual components, functionalities and subsystems. The overall objective of this work is to obtain life-like systems that support Darwinian evolution. To obtain critical artificial cell functionalities several types of subsystems, molecular components and tools were developed and tested. First a machine learning process is exploited as a tool to optimize two subsystems: container and metabolism. Then lipid vesicles and oil droplets are investigated as containers for artificial cells. In particular fusion and fission dynamics of the container subsystem are studied to establish mechanisms for a life-cycle that could support Darwinian evolution. The vesicle container system exploits electric charges to induce fusion and is shown to support a sustained compartmentalized gene expression system. The oil droplet containers are explored for physicochemical instabilities, which can be utilized to produce an iterative cycle of fusion and fission. Finally, a novel dynamic artificial cell container is developed and characterized based on dicarboxylic fatty acids. The molecules, components, methods and tools developed in this thesis provide a solid basis for further functional artificial cell integration and ultimately the assembly of a complete artificial cell that can show evolutionary dynamics.

title: Observation on the bacteriophage typing of mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from the socialist people's Libyan Arab Jamahiria
Creators: name: Elghoul, MT
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 1981

description: Strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from Libyan patients suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis were studied to determine strain variation. Susceptibility to mycobacteriophages was chosen as the principal method. Strains of mycobacteria were collected from a Libyan population in two batches at an extended interval, isolates from the first batch being made in 1976-77 and the second batch in 1979. Several bacteriophage types were recognised in each batch. The first group of isolates consisted principally of Type A strains of M.tuberculosis with only a few strains of Type B or Type Intermediate (I). The second batch, though showing high susceptibility to bacteriophage Type A (53% of isolates) also showed quite a high percentage to Type B (21%) and Type I (25.8%). A considerable change in bacteriophage susceptibility between the strains of the first and second batch was therefore demonstrated. The change was clear-cut in Tripoli, Zawia and Tarhuna, where both Type B and I increased. No correlation was observed between in-vitro drug resistance of the strains of bacteriophage types. Strain resistance to isoniazid was observed amongst all three bacteriophage types. No correlation -2-was demonstrable between the strains isolated from new and previously-diagnosed cases. A small study of M.tuberculosis strains isolated from patients in the expatriate group in the region under study revealed that bacteriophage Type A and I strains predominate among Algerians, Tunisians and Chadians, while Type I is the commonest among strains from Sudanese and Pakistani expatriates. Seventy-five per cent of the strains isolated from Egyptain expatriates were found to be susceptible to the bacteriophages lytic for Type B strains. It is concluded that bacteriophage Type B is rare in most of North Africa, with the exception of Egypt, while Type A is the most common.The increase of pulmonary tuberculosis among expatriates is suggested as a possible factor in the exchange of M.tuberculosis strains between the local population and the expatriate groups. This exchange hypothesis, formulated on the basis of the frequency c of different bacteriophage types, is discussed.

description: This article aims to analyse the possibility of patenting human embryos by analyzing the legislation on the subject and its legal prohibition. In assisted reproduction there is the possibility of genetic manipulation, because human gametes can be fertilized in the laboratory. Assuming that gametes, embryos and uterus for pregnancy are, for reasons of morals, ethics and law, outside of trade, for sure that the human embryo itself can not serve as an object of patenting. The assumption is sealing the patenting of human dignity and reason to maintain legal security. Nevertheless, the topic generates recurring controversy and discussion. The prohibition of patenting embryos is consistent with the idea of dignity, aimed at curbing the possibility of inventing Embryos for patenting, which could have superior characteristics after handling, such as super geniuses or super models. It is intended, therefore, to give an overview about the legal aspects of patenting human embryos, as well as analysis of its ethical aspects. For the study we used a literature and essentially doctrinal.

 While neither N- nor O-linked N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (D-GalNAc)-determined, native blood group A-like specificities have yet been demonstrated in prokaryotic microorganisms as a source of the human "natural" anti-A/B isoagglutinin production, the O-GalNAc glycan-bearing ovarian glycolipids, discovered in C57BL/10 mice, are complementary to the syngeneic anti-A-reactive, secretory immunoglobulin M (IgM), which does not appear in animals subjected to an ovariectomy prior to the onset of puberty. This murine anti-A “auto” antibody and the human innate or non-immune anti-A isoagglutinin show identical serological reaction patterns. In mouse and man, this molecule most likely gets its complementary footprints from the early growth-dependent, trans-species O-GalNAc glycosylation of proteins and subsequent GalNAc transferase depletion that completes the cell differentiation processes and results in release of complementary protein(s) involving the secretory IgM, which might establish this mechanism through expression of germline-specific serine residues and reveals the structure of the volatilely expressed, “lost” glycan. These early or first O-GalNAc glycosylations of proteins appear metabolically related to those of the mucin-type, “aberrant” monosaccharide GalNAcα1-O-Ser/Thr-R or Tn antigen and explain the anti-Tn cross-reactivity of anti-A-specific immunoglobulins and pronounced occurrence of cross-reactive anti-Tn antibody in the plasma of human histo (blood) group O. In fact, in the human blood group O, an A-allelic, phenotype-specific GalNAc glycosylation of plasma proteins does not occur and affect the levels of the anti-Tn antibody, which may function as a growth regulator that depending on its levels, initiates the process of growth inhibition through enzyme-substrate competition with subsequent trans-species O-GalNAc-glycosylations and mediates autologous cellular cytotoxicity.

description: The objectives of this study were to quantify real-world activity, fuel use, and emissions for heavy duty diesel roll-off refuse trucks; evaluate the contribution of duty cycles and emissions controls to variability in cycle average fuel use and emission rates; quantify the effect of vehicle weight on fuel use and emission rates; and compare empirical cycle average emission rates with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s MOVES emission factor model predictions. Measurements were made at 1 Hz on six trucks of model years 2005 to 2012, using onboard systems. The trucks traveled 870 miles, had an average speed of 16 mph, and collected 165 tons of trash. The average fuel economy was 4.4 mpg, which is approximately twice previously reported values for residential trash collection trucks. On average, 50% of time is spent idling and about 58% of emissions occur in urban areas. Newer trucks with selective catalytic reduction and diesel particulate filter had NOx and PM cycle average emission rates that were 80% lower and 95% lower, respectively, compared to older trucks without. On average, the combined can and trash weight was about 55% of chassis weight. The marginal effect of vehicle weight on fuel use and emissions is highest at low loads and decreases as load increases. Among 36 cycle average rates (6 trucks × 6 cycles), MOVES-predicted values and estimates based on real-world data have similar relative trends. MOVES-predicted CO2 emissions are similar to those of the real world, while NOx and PM emissions are, on average, 43% lower and 300% higher, respectively. The real-world data presented here can be used to estimate benefits of replacing old trucks with new trucks. Further, the data can be used to improve emission inventories and model predictions.Implications: In-use measurements of the real-world activity, fuel use, and emissions of heavy-duty diesel roll-off refuse trucks can be used to improve the accuracy of predictive models, such as MOVES, and emissions inventories. Further, the activity data from this study can be used to generate more representative duty cycles for more accurate chassis dynamometer testing. Comparisons of old and new model year diesel trucks are useful in analyzing the effect of fleet turnover. The analysis of effect of haul weight on fuel use can be used by fleet managers to optimize operations to reduce fuel cost.

description: Aircraft turbine engines are a significant source of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous emissions in the vicinity of airports and military installations. Hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) (e.g., formaldehyde, benzene, naphthalene and other compounds) associated with aircraft emissions are an environmental concern both in flight and at ground level. Therefore, effective sampling, identification, and accurate measurement of these trace species are important to assess their environmental impact. This effort evaluates two established ambient air sampling and analysis methods, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method TO-11A and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Method 1501, for potential use to quantify HAPs from aircraft turbine engines. The techniques were used to perform analysis of the exhaust from a T63 turboshaft engine, and were examined using certified gas standards transferred through the heated sampling systems used for engine exhaust gaseous emissions measurements. Test results show that the EPA Method TO-11A (for aldehydes) and NIOSH Method 1501 (for semivolatile hydrocarbons) were effective techniques for the sampling and analysis of most HAPs of interest. Both methods showed reasonable extraction efficiencies of HAP species from the sorbent tubes, with the exception of acrolein, styrene, and phenol, which were not well quantified. Formaldehyde measurements using dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) tubes (EPA method TO-11A) were accurate for gas-phase standards, and compared favorably to measurements using gas-phase Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. In general, these two standard methodologies proved to be suitable techniques for field measurement of turbine engine HAPs within a reasonable (5–10 minutes) sampling period. Details of the tests, the analysis methods, calibration procedures, and results from the gas standards and T63 engine tested using a conventional JP-8 jet fuel are provided.Implications: HAPs from aviation-related sources are important because of their adverse health and environmental impacts in and around airports and flight lines. Simpler, more convenient techniques to measure the important HAPs, especially aldehydes and volatile organic HAPs, are needed to provide information about their occurrence and assist in the development of engines that emit fewer harmful emissions.

The mimicry of these biopolymers is regarded as a strategy to design nontoxic and fully biodegradable food packaging films and coatings. To obtain cutin inspired materials we have used a natural occurring polyhydroxylated monomer like aleuritic (9,10,16-trihydroxypalmitic) acid and a direct and scalable synthesis route consisting in the noncatalyzed melt-condensation polymerization in air. To reduce the number of hydroxyl groups and to increase hydrophobicity, palmitic acid has been used as a capping agent. Aleuritic-palmitic polyhydroxyesteres films have been obtained and characterized.

To obtain cutin inspired materials we have used a natural occurring polyhydroxylated monomer like aleuritic (9,10,16-trihydroxypalmitic) acid and a direct and scalable synthesis route consisting in the noncatalyzed melt-condensation polymerization in air. To reduce the number of hydroxyl groups and to increase hydrophobicity, palmitic acid has been used as a capping agent. Aleuritic-palmitic polyhydroxyesteres films have been obtained and characterized by Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), solid state 13C Magic Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (13C MAS-NMR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and uniaxial tensile testing. Palmitic acid addition is found to have a direct effect on the water absorption capacity of samples but also on their structural weakening and tendency to side reactions like dehydration and oxidation. Blocking of chain propagation and branching points by palmitic units are proposed to be responsible for this behavior.

description: ABSTRACTAircraft turbine engines are a significant source of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous emissions in the vicinity of airports and military installations. Hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) (e.g. formaldehyde, benzene, naphthalene and other compounds) associated with aircraft emissions are an environmental concern both in-flight and at ground level. Therefore, effective sampling, identification and accurate measurement of these trace species are important to assess their environmental impact. This effort evaluates two established ambient air sampling and analysis methods, EPA Method TO-11A and NIOSH Method 1501, for potential use to quantify HAPs from aircraft turbine engines. The techniques were used to perform analysis of the exhaust from a T63 turboshaft engine, and were examined using certified gas standards transferred through the heated sampling systems used for engine exhaust gaseous emissions measurements. Test results show that the EPA method TO-11A (for aldehydes) and NIOSH Method 1501 (for semi-volatile hydrocarbons) were effective techniques for the sampling and analysis of most HAPs of interest. Both methods showed reasonable extraction efficiencies of HAP species from the sorbent tubes, with the exception of acrolein, styrene and phenol, which were not well quantified. Formaldehyde measurements using DNPH tubes (EPA method TO-11A) were accurate for gas phase standards, and compared favorably to measurements using gas phase FTIR. In general, these two standard methodologies proved to be suitable techniques for field measurement of turbine engine HAPs within a reasonable (5-10 minute) sampling period. Details of the tests, the analysis methods, calibration procedures and results from the gas standards and T63 engine tested using a conventional JP-8 jet fuel are provided. ImplicationsHAPs are important because of chemical contamination of the air in and around airports and flight lines. The development of simpler, more convenient ways to measure the important HAPs, especially aldehydes and volatile organic HAPs, may lead to more information about their occurrence due to aircraft emissions. It may also assist in the development of engines that emit fewer environmental emissions.

description: The objectives of this study were to: quantify real-world activity, fuel use, and emissions for heavy duty diesel roll-off refuse trucks; evaluate the contribution of duty cycles and emissions controls to variability in cycle average fuel use and emission rates; quantify the effect of vehicle weight on fuel use and emission rates; and compare empirical cycle average emission rates with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s MOVES emission factor model predictions. Measurements were made at 1 Hz on six trucks of model years 2005 to 2012, using onboard systems. The trucks traveled 870 miles, had an average speed of 16 mph, and collected 165 tons of trash. The average fuel economy was 4.4 mpg, which is approximately twice previously reported values for residential trash collection trucks. On average, 50% of time is spent idling and about 58% of emissions occur in urban areas. Newer trucks with selective catalytic reduction and diesel particulate filter had NOx and PM cycle average emission rates that were 80% lower and 95% lower, respectively, compared to older trucks without. On average, the combined can and trash weight was about 55% of chassis weight. The marginal effect of vehicle weight on fuel use and emissions is highest at low loads and decreases as load increases. Among 36 cycle average rates (6 trucks x 6 cycles), MOVES predicted values and estimates based on real-world data have similar relative trends. MOVES predicted CO2 emissions are similar to those of the real-world while NOx and PM emissions are, on average, 43% lower and 300% higher, respectively. The real-world data presented here can be used to estimate benefits of replacing old trucks with new trucks. Further, the data can be used to improve emission inventories and model predictions. ImplicationsIn-use measurements of the real-world activity, fuel use, and emissions of heavy-duty diesel roll-off refuse trucks can be used to improve the accuracy of predictive models, such as MOVES, and emissions inventories. Further, the activity data from this study can be used to generate more representative duty cycles for more accurate chassis dynamometer testing. Comparisons of old and new model year diesel trucks are useful in analyzing the effect of fleet turnover. The analysis of effect of haul weight on fuel use can be used by fleet managers to optimize operations to reduce fuel cost.

description: The aim of this paper is to analyze from an interdisciplinary paradigm the relationship between law and economic activity, particularly as this dialogue is established from what is common to them, namely state intervention. One realizes that this relationship is expressed through the power, in particular the interventionist power, a way of understanding what is called development in the face of modern society. What is the exercise of power by the state is prioritizing certain private economic groups, because if this works either as a negotiator ora consumer, the result of their action comes to impact development in a broad sense in certain regions. One can check that the connection between law and economic activity occurs through legal rules that have as much legal as political, since both are sides of the same institution prerogative, though sometimes technical excerpts may claim otherwise. The methodology will be observing the real concrete relations and the subsequent analysis of the theoretical as well as its reflection from the collation reality theory that underlie the practice in dialectical perspective.
Not so gigantic after all: Response to Lacovara et. al.

description: Lacovara et al. (2014) described a large juvenile titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur skeleton that they claimed was unusually enormous at ~60 tonnes. That mass estimate is too high by a factor of about two, and numerous other sauropods were larger, sometimes much larger, than the Dreadnoughtus holotype. Had Lacovara et al. estimated the mass of the juvenile Dreadnoughtus from a life volume estimate based on their digitized skeletal, or even their conventional restoration when scaled to the size of the vertebrae, then they would have arrived at a much lower and more realistic tonnage.

description: The business activity has aroused special interest of researchers as an object of study , especially as a means of social development in contemporary societies . Our Federal Constitution arguably actually participates in the construction of enterprise legal system today. So it is necessary to rethink his advances achieved and the expected harvest rights positivized in his chapter of the economic order , here in particular , those that should be targeted to micro and small enterprises . The article argues that followed the constitutional rights of its values and principles need to effectiveness, in particular the principle of differential treatment interpreted in the light of the principle of ability to pay tax for micro and small enterprises. This distinct class of entrepreneurs in their effectiveness requires positive discrimination to equal in free competition against other larger companies, and thus by its enormous social importance achieve the challenge to build new values to full employment, advance in the development socioeconomic and income distribution.

description: Objective: To carry out an inventory on the availability, challenges and needs of Dietary Assessment (DA) methods in Africa as a pre-requisite to provide evidence, and set directions (strategies) for implementing common dietary methods and support web-research infrastructure across countries.Methods: The inventory was performed within the framework of the “Africa's Study on Physical Activity and Dietary Assessment Methods” (AS-PADAM) project. It involves International Institutional and African networks. An inventory questionnaire was developed and disseminated through the networks. Eighteen countries responded to the dietary inventory questionnaire.Results: Various DA tools were reported in Africa, 24-Hour Dietary Recall and Food Frequency Questionnaire were the most commonly used. Few tools were validated and tested for reliability. Face-to-face interview was the common method of administration. No computerised software or other new (web) technologies were reported. No tools were standardised across countries.Conclusions: The lack of comparable DA methods across represented countries is a major obstacle to implement comprehensive and joint nutrition-related programmes for surveillance, programme evaluation, research and prevention. There is a need to develop new or adapt existing DA methods across countries by employing related research infrastructure that have been validated and standardised in other settings, with the view to standardizing methods for wider use.
