description: A decapitation test was used to assess control-pollinated seedlings’ growth in Dacryodes edulis. Thirty nine weeks after sowing, pot-grown seedlings belonging to 13 control-pollinated progenies from 4 provenances were decapitated by removal the shoot apex or the uppermost node, leaving shoots of uniform height of 40 cm. The stem size (height and diameter) were measured and the number of leaves counted weekly for a period of 39 weeks after sowing (WAS) in the nursery. Then, the length and number of lateral shoots (twigs) subsequently formed were measured during a period of 2 to 8 weeks after decapitation (WAD) in a net house to determine the branching frequency. Previous to decapitation, seedling height did not showed significant variation (P>0.05) in all crosses combined, 39 WAS. However, seedling collar diameter and number of leaves showed significant variation (p<0.05). Eight weeks after decapitation, only the number of vigorous twigs showed significant variation (p<0.05) in all crosses combined. The number of weeks after decapitation was the strong predictor of the shoot elongation. According to the conceptual basis of the decapitation test interpretation, the “Sprouting and the Dominance Phases” were not observed in the present study. In fact, D. edulis showed a synchronal shoot growth after decapitation. This habit could be used as a predictive test according to the relationship between branching habit and harvest index.

Adaptive simulation

description: The objective of my research thesis was to add aqueous chemistry models to a General Purpose Adaptive Reservoir Simulator (GPAS) developed at the University of Texas. GPAS is an implicit, compositional, equation-of-state, parallel simulator that can run efficiently on a range of platforms from a single PC to massively parallel computers or clusters of PCs. Additional species added to the simulator were tracer, polymer and surfactant. The methodology adopted was to treat each of these species as an aqueous component with special properties calculated in a chemical module. This chemical module takes into account the flux across each grid interface, the phase saturations, phase densities and the upstream locations for each gridblock and uses the one-point upstream weighting numerical method. This is a clever way of calculating the polymer and tracer properties because it imports the flow parameters already calculated in the host simulator. The convection part of the mass conservation equation is solved explicitly at the end of each Newtonian iteration for every timestep. The polymer properties partially modeled in the chemical module are aqueous phase viscosity, polymer adsorption, aqueous phase permeability reduction and the inaccessible pore volume. Comparisons with analytical solutions were made to verify the correctness of the mathematical formulation, the finite-difference schemes and the code and to compare the accuracy and efficiency of the different methods. Both continuous injection and tracer slug concentration profiles and history numerical results were compared with analytical solutions and with the UTCHEM simulator numerical output and were generally in good agreement. Numerical results from GP AS for polymer flooding were also compared with analytical solution.

description: In this paper we study the problem of supporting effective and scalable visualization for the rapidly increasing volumes of urban data. From an extensive literature study, we find that the existing solutions suffer from at least one of the drawbacks below: (i) loss of interesting structures/outliers due to sampling; (ii) supporting heatmaps only, which provides limited information; and (iii) no notion of real-world geography semantics (e.g., country, state, city) is captured in the visualization result as well as the underlying index. Therefore, we propose ConcaveCubes, a cluster-based data cube to support interactive visualization of large-scale multidimensional urban data. Specifically, we devise an appropriate visualization abstraction and visualization design based on clusters. We propose a novel concave hull construction method to support boundary based cluster map visualization, where real-world geographical semantics are preserved without any information loss. Instead of calculating the clusters on demand, ConcaveCubes (re)utilizes existing calculation and visualization results to efficiently support different kinds of user interactions. We conduct extensive experiments using real-world datasets and show the efficiency and effectiveness of ConcaveCubes by comparing with the state-of-the-art cube-based solutions.

description: A paradox in the study of violent radicalization is that while each of the empirical findings can be explained from multiple theories, very few theories can explain a relevant number of these findings simultaneously. In this paper functional behavior assessment is applied to violent radical behavior, trying to find out the factors responsible for its initial learning and subsequent maintenance. Specifically, a radicalization model is proposed, which can explain a wide range of observed phenomena, accommodate apparent exceptions, and obtain testable consequences. It also allows challenging some firmly rooted ideas, as the alleged existence of aggressive influence practices, or brainwashing. Finally, the model is also able to provide valuable predictions for subsequent investigation, such as those related to the reversibility of the process of radicalization.

description: Виктимологическая профилактика внутрисемейного насилия должна занять одно из приоритетных мест в системе мер противодействия преступности. Насилие в семье представляет собой комплексное явление, эффективно бороться с которым можно лишь объединив усилия различных субъектов, в том числе и не являющихся непосредственными субъектами профилактики. Комплексная система виктимологических мер гражданских институтов должна быть направлена на создание надлежащих условий для защиты несовершеннолетней жертвы от любых проявлений насилия в семье. Акцент должен быть сделан и на
преодоление негативных явлений, которые создают предпосылки для применения насилия в отношении несовершеннолетних членов семьи. Не являясь субъектами предупреждения преступлений, гражданские институты, тем не менее, играют особую роль в защите детей даже в рамках их семей. В работе освещены проблемные аспекты деятельности отдельных субъектов виктимологической профилактики насилия против детей в рамках семьи, обращено внимание на несовершенство правового регулирования данной
деятельности. Автором приведены некоторые предложения для повышения качества виктимологической профилактики внутрисемейного насилия в отношении детей.

Specifying dynamic security properties of web service based systems

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The security characteristics of web service based systems depend on those of the individual web services (WS) involved and the way in which they are related to each other. In principle, the security characteristics of WS or systems can be expressed in security properties that are published and available to external parties. Only by knowing the security properties of the individual WS another WS can invoke it (if it satisfies certain security requirements and capabilities) and the overall system’s security properties can be analysed and deduced. In our earlier work, we have developed the security characterisation language, SCL, to specify the static security properties of software components and systems. In this paper, we use SCL for describing security properties of WS and further enhance this language with the capability of specifying the dynamic security characteristics. The extended version of SCL (E-SCL) incorporates such features as time, time intervals, time sequence, probability, runtime conditions, and alternative security properties. Furthermore, we have developed the WS security ontology and applied it together with E-SCL to publish the dynamic security properties of WS using OWL-S and analyse them dynamically. Our approach is illustrated with an example email system.

description: Deliverable 2.3 outlines the technical and functional requirements for a wearable system to monitor, detect, and prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This was achieved through analysing contractual obligations, patient-centric use cases, regulatory frameworks, clinical guidelines, and clinician consultations, while ensuring methodological and technical feasibility.The analysis of over 190 literature sources revealed that a universal system integrating multiple measurement methods—compression duplex ultrasound, electrical impedance (EIP), and light reflection rheography (LRR)-based venous occlusion plethysmography—would be beneficial. These methods will share common modules, including a wearable tissue compression actuator (TCA) and a central hub (CHI) with software for medical specialists. An extended reality and serious game module (XGM) is also proposed for DVT prophylaxis.Key innovations include operator-independent, compression ultrasound scanning for DVT detection, which would replace manual monitoring. This method’s feasibility depends on vein visibility during scans, particularly in supine patients, with potential solutions involving automatic calf compression and Doppler ultrasound monitoring. Hydrogel disposable pads are suggested to address issues with drying ultrasound gel. In addition, EIP and LRR venous occlusion plethysmography will enable automated DVT screening while sharing the TCA across modalities. Investigational studies are needed to define optimal patient and sensor positioning. Exploring passive monitoring methods through mechanical or electrical stimulation may enhance venous flow.DVT prophylaxis is also emphasized, with the potential to improve venous flow through mechanical and/or electrical stimulation. Integrating serious games into the ThrombUS+ platform could enhance both prevention and rehabilitation for immobilized patients.The identified module-based requirements will inform the further development of the ThrombUS+ system, with detailed specifications to be outlined in Deliverable D6.1, “Product Design Specifications.”

description: Filter media exhibit strong particle-size dependent capture characteristics that have a complicated dependence to filter properties and operating conditions. As simulation-based determination of the filtration characteristics of real media is very challenging, accurate experimental approaches are critically necessary. Conventionally, filter penetration measurements were made using test particles extracted from a differential mobility analyzer (DMA) and measuring the ratio of particle counts downstream of the filter to that upstream. Size-dependent filter penetration can be directly determined from these measurements if the DMA was operated at high resolution and the contribution of multiply charged particles was negligible. The accuracy of this well-established approach has, however, never been fully assessed. In this study, the influence of multiply charged particles to the filter efficiency measurements is determined using a system-modeling approach. The model results suggest that the contribution of multiply charged particles could significantly influence penetration results when the mode size of the test particles entering the DMA or the most penetrating particle size (MPPS) of the test filter are larger than ∼100 nm. Under such conditions, even if multiply charged particles constitute a small fraction of the test aerosol, they can significantly skew filter penetration results. For accurate calculation of filter penetration, two approaches are proposed: an improved filter test protocol and a new multiple-charge correction approach for calculation of size-dependent filter penetration from mobility-based measurements. The validity of the proposed approaches is established with experimental data.Copyright 2015 American Association for Aerosol Research

title: The Intercultural Alternative to Multiculturalism and its Limits

Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst

Subjects: subject: Social and Cultural Anthropology

description: Intercultural policies have gained salience in integration and regional development strategies in cities such as Berlin and in EU and European policy networks. Critiquing multiculturalism for having produced segregation by recognizing cultural communities, proponents of interculturalism (e.g. Wood and Landry 2008) emphasize the importance of intercultural exchange and an individual right to cultural identity combined with equality of opportunity as well as the political advertising of the value of diversity. This value, it is argued, is also economic, as intercultural exchange sparks creativity, which fosters innovation, which enhances competitiveness. Intercultural cities, it is posited, are moreover attractive to investors and the high-skilled. Based on research in Berlin and the analysis of EU documents, this paper examines why policy-makers have come to embrace interculturalism as an alternative to multiculturalism and the limits it entails for the recognition of diversity. It argues that despite its seeming inclusivity, interculturalism poses limits to what counts as support-worthy diversity which derive from liberal and neoliberal norms and the political prioritization of increased competitiveness in the neoliberal economy. Interculturalism thus feeds into the dismantling of welfare entitlements as well as processes of gentrification in the city that challenge the right to place of particular immigrant populations. Diversity in the intercultural frame thus appears as a partial concept built around particular notions of culture and class. This also becomes apparent in the anxiety that intercultural policies and policy-makers continue to betray about difference (see Eriksen 2006) - as opposed to diversity in the above sense.

description: A geographically diverse western adult sample (n=546) from Australia, New Zealand, the British Isles and North America reported comparable self-aspects, coping styles, recent stress and health states. Latent class analysis identified 3 cluster groups characterized by strong (n=231), medium (168) and weak (n = 147) patterns of self and coping, or Self-Coping Complexity (SCC). All SCC clusters reported similar recent stress and physical health, but the Low SCC group reported the poorest social, emotional, cognitive and sexual well-being, while the Medium and High SCC groups reported the greatest well-being. In the face of comparable stress, those with greater SCC enjoyed better psychosocial health.

description: Our objective was to apply the rigorous test developed by Browne (1992) to determine whether the circumplex model fits Big Five personality data. This test has yet to be applied to personality data. Another objective was to determine whether blended items explained correlations among the Big Five traits. We used two working adult samples, the Eugene-Springfield Community Sample and the Professional Worker Career Experience Survey. Fit to the circumplex was tested via Browne's (1992) procedure. Circumplexes were graphed to identify items with loadings on multiple traits (blended items), and to determine whether removing these items changed five-factor model (FFM) trait intercorrelations. In both samples, the circumplex structure fit the FFM traits well. Each sample had items with dual-factor loadings (8 items in the first sample, 21 in the second). Removing blended items had little effect on construct-level intercorrelations among FFM traits. We conclude that rigorous tests show that the fit of personality data to the circumplex model is good. This finding means the circumplex model is competitive with the factor model in understanding the organization of personality traits. The circumplex structure also provides a theoretically and empirically sound rationale for evaluating intercorrelations among FFM traits. Even after eliminating blended items, FFM personality traits remained correlated.

description: People’s general tendencies to view others as cold-hearted and manipulative (rather than affectionate and trustworthy) may explain defection in social dilemma situations. To capture idiosyncratic tendencies in other-perceptions, we collected mutual judgments in groups of unacquainted individuals in two studies (N1 = 83, N2 = 413) and extracted perceiver effect scores using the Social Relations Model. In both studies, participants later played a public goods game. In Study 1, perceiver effects predicted cooperation beyond self-reported and group-related control variables. However, results were not replicated in a preregistered second study with higher power and a more diverse sample. We discuss implicit group norms as a likely explanation for the inconsistent findings and suggest future directions for addressing generalized expectations in social dilemmas.

description: Euthanasia in zebrafish (Danio rerio) younger than 5 days post fertilization (dpf) is poorly described in the literature, and standardized protocols are lacking, most likely because larvae not capable of independent feeding are often not protected under national legislations. We assessed the euthanasia efficacy in laboratories in different countries of a one hour anesthetic overdose immersion with buffered lidocaine hydrochloride (1 g/L, with or without 50 mL/L of ethanol), buffered tricaine (1 g/L), clove oil (0.1%), benzocaine (1 g/L), or 2-phenoxyethanol (3 mL/L), as well as the efficacy of hypothermic shock (one hour immersion) and electrical stunning (for one minute), on zebrafish at <12 h post fertilization (hpf), 24 hpf, and 4 dpf. Based on the survival/recovery rates 24 h after treatment, the most effective methods were clove oil, lidocaine with ethanol, and electrical stunning. For 4 dpf larvae, signs of aversion during treatment demonstrated that all anesthetics, except lidocaine, induced aversive behavior. Therefore, the most suited euthanasic treatment was lidocaine hydrochloride 1 g/L, buffered with 2 g/L of sodium bicarbonate and mixed with 50 mL/L of ethanol, which euthanized both embryos and larvae in an efficient and stress-free manner. Electrical stunning also euthanized embryos and larvae efficiently and without signs of aversion; this method needs further assessment in other laboratories to draw firm conclusions.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that all three complexes feature “AgAg” subunits extended by bpp ligands in two-dimensional (2-D) cation layers, which are embedded by the PHBU−, PHSU2−, or CHDA2− ligands of different lengths. Adjacent 2-D layers with pillar-shaped fillers are mutually interdigitated to 3-D H-bonded supramolecular coordination polymers with 1-D pores. As the length of the pillar-shaped fillers increases from 5.6, 6.4 to 7.3 Å, the dimensions of the pores range from 5.0 × 3.7 Å (narrow slit), 8.7 × 5.6 Å (elliptical) to 13.4 × 6.8 Å (quadrangular), and the solvent-accessible void volumes range from 3.6, 31.8 to 36.4% of the crystal volumes. The 1-D pores are filled with guest water molecules. The guest water molecules in 1 are discrete. Centrosymmetric water tapes and chiral right-handed 21 helical water tapes are observed in 2 and 3, respectively. Thermal and photoluminescent properties, as well as lead(II) adsorption, are also discussed.

Damp mergers: Recent gaseous mergers without significant globular cluster formation?

description: Here we test the idea that new globular clusters (GCs) are formed in the same gaseous ('wet') mergers or interactions that give rise to the young stellar populations seen in the central regions of many early-type galaxies. We compare mean GC colors with the age of the central galaxy starburst. The red GC subpopulation reveals remarkably constant mean colors independent of galaxy age. A scenario in which the red GC subpopulation is a combination of old and new GCs (formed in the same event as the central galaxy starburst) cannot be ruled out, although this would require an age-metallicity relation for the newly formed GCs that is steeper than the Galactic relation. However, the data are also well described by a scenario in which most red GCs are old, and few, if any, are formed in recent gaseous mergers. This is consistent with the old ages inferred from some spectroscopic studies of GCs in external systems. The event that induced the central galaxy starburst may have therefore involved insufficient gas mass for significant GC formation. We term such gas-poor events 'damp' mergers.

description: Long-slit spectra have been obtained with the Keck telescope for a sample of 11 early-type galaxies covering a range in luminosity. Rotation velocity and velocity dispersions, together with 20 Lick line-strength gradients have been measured to two effective radius. We transform line-strength gradients into age, metallicity and α/Fe. Galaxies show very shallow age gradients, strong metallicity gradients, and both positive and negative α/Fe gradients, which cannot be explained with simple outside-in scenarios of galaxy formation. We explore the correlation of the gradients with other global parameters of the galaxies, finding different behaviour for the two families of galaxies, luminous (boxy, core inner profile) and less luminous (disky, cuspy inner profile) galaxies.

description: A detailed imaging analysis of the globular cluster (GC) system of the Sombrero galaxy (NGC 4594) has been accomplished using a six-image mosaic from the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys. The quality of the data is such that contamination by foreground stars and background galaxies is negligible for all but the faintest 5% of the GC luminosity function. This enables the study of an effectively pure sample of 659 GCs until ~2 mag fainter than the turnover magnitude, which occurs at MVTOM = -7.60 ± 0.06 for an assumed m - M = 29.77. Two GC metallicity subpopulations are easily distinguishable, with the metal-poor subpopulation exhibiting a smaller intrinsic dispersion in color compared to the metal-rich subpopulation. There are three new discoveries. (1) A metal-poor GC color-magnitude trend has been observed. (2) The fact that the metal-rich GCs are ~17% smaller than the metal-poor ones for small projected galactocentric radii (less than ~2') has been confirmed. However, the median half-light radii of the two subpopulations become identical at ~3' from the center. This is most easily explained if the size difference is the result of projection effects. (3) The brightest (MV < -9.0) members of the GC system show a size-magnitude upturn, where the average GC size increases with increasing luminosity. Evidence is presented that supports an intrinsic origin for this feature rather than being a result of accreted dwarf elliptical nuclei. In addition, the metal-rich GCs show a shallower positive size-magnitude trend, similar to what is found in previous studies of young star clusters.

description: Three coordination polymers, {[Ag2(R–PHBU)(S–PHBU)(bpp)2]·H2O}n (1, racemic), {[Ag2(R–PHSU)0.5(S–PHSU)0.5(bpp)2]·2H2O}n (2, racemic) and {[Ag2(CHDA)(bpp)2]·9H2O}n (3, homochiral) (HPHBU = 2–phenylbutyric acid, H2PHSU = 2–phenylsuccinic acid, H2CHDA = 1,1–cyclohexanediacetic acid, bpp = 1,3–bis(4–pyridyl)propane), have been synthesized by solution reactions of Ag(I) with bpp and rac–PHBU–, rac–PHSU2– or CHDA2–. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that all three complexes feature “Ag⋅⋅⋅Ag” subunits extended by bpp ligands in two dimensional (2D) [Ag2(bpp)2]n2n+ cation layers, which are embedded by the PHBU–, PHSU2– or CHDA2– ligands of different lengths. Adjacent 2D layers with pillar-shaped fillers are mutually interdigitated to 3D H-bonded supramolecular coordination polymers with 1D pores. As the length of the pillar-shaped fillers increases from 5.6 Å, 6.4 Å to 7.3 Å, the dimensions of the pores range from 5.0 × 3.7 Å (narrow slit), 8.7 × 5.6 Å (elliptical) to 13.4 × 6.8 Å (quadrangular), and the solvent-accessible void volumes range from 3.6%, 31.8% to 36.4% of the crystal volumes. The 1D pores are filled with guest water molecules. The guest water molecules in 1 are discrete. Centrosymmetric water tapes and chiral right-handed 21 helical water tapes are observed in 2 and 3, respectively. Thermal and photoluminescent properties, as well as lead(II) adsorption, are also discussed.

description: In this article, we report the synthesis of the first examples of room temperature liquid crystal dimers based on cholesterol and pentaalkynylbenzene linked via flexible alkyl spacers. The thermal behaviour and mesomorphic properties of the newly synthesised compounds were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarised optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction studies. All the synthesised dimers showed nematic (N*) phase at room temperature and exhibited excellent fluorescent emission properties. The steady-state anisotropy and fluorescence lifetime were measured in order to gain further insights into the supramolecular arrangement of these dimers.

description: This study documents the event chronology and causes of land-use change in a deltaic region of the Philippines since the beginnings of aquaculture in the late nineteenth century. Satellite images and topographic maps spanning the period 1972–2013 were processed to map fishponds and the natural habitats over which they have encroached. Historical archives were consulted and interviews were conducted to understand the historical exploitation of local natural resources and the reasons behind the recorded land changes. Results showed that aquaculture developed in the late nineteenth century and expanded subsequently across the landscape under a succession of forcing factors. The global market, for example, played an early role but a number of land-use changes were also a direct response to changing environmental constraints and natural hazards. These cumulative events have promoted continuous gain in favor of aquaculture, to the detriment of other land-use options.

description: A series of dinuclear Pt(II) complexes bridged with polyethyleneglycol ether of the type [ClPt(tpy)O(CH2CH2O)n(tpy)PtCl]Cl2 where n = 1 (Ptdteg), 2 (Ptdtdeg), 3 (Ptdtteg), 4 (Ptdttteg), and linker-free complex, (Ptdt) (where tpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine), were synthesized and characterized to investigate the role of bridging polyethyleneglycol ether linker on the substitution reactivity of dinuclear Pt(II) complexes. Substitution reactions were studied using thiourea nucleophiles, viz. thiourea (TU), 1,3-dimethyl-2-thiourea (DMTU), 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-2-thiourea (TMTU) under pseudo-first-order conditions as a function of concentration and temperature by conventional stopped-flow reaction analyzer. The reactions gave single exponential fits following the rate law kobs = k2[Nu]. Introduction of polyethyleneglycol ether linker decreases the electrophilicity of the platinum center and the whole complex. The results obtained indicate that the rate of substitution is controlled by both electronic and steric hindrance which increases with the length of the linker. Experimental results are supported by density functional theory calculations and structures obtained at B3LYP/LANL2DZ level. The order of the reactivity of the nucleophiles is TU > DMTU > TMTU. The magnitude and the size of the enthalpy of activation and entropy of activation support an associative mode of mechanism, where bond formation in the transition state is favored.

description: In this paper, we study a duopolistic market of suppliers competing for the business of a retailer. The retailer sets the order cycle and quantities from each supplier to minimize its annual costs. Different from other studies in the literature, our work simultaneously considers the order size restriction and the benefit of order consolidation, and shows non-trivial pricing behaviour of the suppliers under different settings. Under asymmetric information setting, we formulate the pricing problem of the preferred supplier as a non-linear programming problem and use Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions to find the optimal solution. In general, unless the preferred supplier has high-order size limit, it prefers sharing the market with its competitor when retailer’s demand, benefit of order consolidation or fixed cost of ordering from the preferred supplier is high. We model the symmetric information setting as a two-agent non-zero sum pricing game and establish the equilibrium conditions. We show that a supplier might set a ‘threshold price’ to capture the entire market if its per unit fixed ordering cost is sufficiently small. Finally, we prove that there exists a joint-order Nash equilibrium only if the suppliers set identical prices low enough to make the retailer place full-size orders from both.
