description: This paper analyzed the impact of farm and farmer characteristics on the acceptability to dairy farmers in the Netherlands of an all-risk insurance package and underlying specific categories of insurance coverage. The major farm characteristics considered were structural, operational and financial variables, while farmer age was the major farmer-specific characteristic analyzed. The specific insurance categories reviewed were damage, legal, disability, liability and health insurance. The results suggest that there are common and insurance-specific factors that can improve the design of insurance policies for dairy farmers.
title: 3D printing with steel - Additive Manufacturing for connections and structures

Year: 2024

description: Automated production is finding its way into the fabrication of structural steel. One robot holds attachments (stiffeners, end plates, etc.) on a steel beam or column and another robot produces weld seams. However, welding robots can also be used for Additive Manufacturing (Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing, WAAM). The wire electrode serves as a printing material. The Institute of Steel Construction and Materials Mechanics in Darmstadt is investigating how typical connecting elements for steel structures can be printed directly on steel beams using Additive Manufacturing with arc welding and robots. Furthermore, structural elements such as nodes for space frames can be printed and even complete structures, e.g. columns and a little bridge, have already been manufactured additively. The main focus is on determining suitable welding and process parameters. In addition, topology optimization is necessary in order to achieve good structures using a small amount of material. This is possible due to the free design prospects of WAAM, which opens up new design and production strategies.

description: We study the ground state properties of a one-dimensional Bose gas with N-body attractive contact interactions. By using the explicit form of the bright soliton solution of a generalized nonlinear Schroedinger equation, we compute the chemical potential and the ground state energy. For N=3, a localized soliton wave-function exists only for a critical value of the interaction strength: in this case the ground state has an infinite degeneracy that can be parameterized by the chemical potential. The stabilization of the bright soliton solution by an external harmonic trap is also discussed, and a comparison with the effect of N-body attractive contact interactions in higher dimensions is presented.

description: Stellar triples with massive stellar components are common, and can lead to sequential binary black-hole mergers. Here, we outline the evolution towards these sequential mergers, and explore these events in the context of gravitational-wave astronomy and the pair-instability mass gap. We find that binary black-hole mergers in the pair-instability mass gap can be of triple origin and therefore are not exclusively formed in dense dynamical environments. We discuss the sequential merger scenario in the context of the most massive gravitational-wave sources detected to date: GW170729 and GW190521. We propose that the progenitor of GW170729 is a low-metallicity field triple. We support the premise that GW190521 could not have been formed in the field. We conclude that triple stellar evolution is fundamental in the understanding of gravitational-wave sources, and likely, other energetic transientsas well.

description: Today there are many agricultural products in the market with different designations and certificates which are as a proof of product quality and adherence to health standards. However, consumers sometimes find it difficult to differentiate these certificates and they have variable degrees of trust for them. In this article we tried to determine the consumers' general degree of trust in food safety and in the health safety of the fruit offered in Croatia. A comparison is made between the trust degrees for domestic and imported fruit. Consumers also expressed their opinion about the need for various certificates that guarantee the health safety of food products. In this respect, we also tried to determine the various degrees of trust for different certificates. Finally, we tried to determine the degree of trust for different sale channels (city markets, supermarkets, specialized shops and direct marketing).

description: The structure of the dark energy equation of state phase plane holds important information on the nature of the physics. We explain the bounds of the freezing and thawing models of scalar field dark energy in terms of the tension between the steepness of the potential vs. the Hubble drag. Additionally, we extend the phase plane structure to modified gravity theories, examine trajectories of models with certain properties, and categorize regions in terms of scalar field hierarchical parameters, showing that dark energy is generically not a slow roll phenomenon.

Nanocrystalline Silicon Based Films for Renewable Energy Applications
Creators: name: Perani, Martina <1987>
Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2015
Subjects: FIS/03 Fisica della materia

description: The present thesis is focused on the study of innovative Si-based materials for third generation photovoltaics. In particular, silicon oxi-nitride (SiOxNy) thin films and multilayer of Silicon Rich Carbide (SRC)/Si have been characterized in view of their application in photovoltaics. SiOxNy is a promising material for applications in thin-film solar cells as well as for wafer based silicon solar cells, like silicon heterojunction solar cells. However, many issues relevant to the material properties have not been studied yet, such as the role of the deposition condition and precursor gas concentrations on the optical and electronic properties of the films, the composition and structure of the nanocrystals. The results presented in the thesis aim to clarify the effects of annealing and oxygen incorporation within nc-SiOxNy films on its properties in view of the photovoltaic applications. Silicon nano-crystals (Si NCs) embedded in a dielectric matrix were proposed as absorbers in all-Si multi-junction solar cells due to the quantum confinement capability of Si NCs, that allows a better match to the solar spectrum thanks to the size induced tunability of the band gap. Despite the efficient solar radiation absorption capability of this structure, its charge collection and transport properties has still to be fully demonstrated. The results presented in the thesis aim to the understanding of the transport mechanisms at macroscopic and microscopic scale. Experimental results on SiOxNy thin films and SRC/Si multilayers have been obtained at macroscopical and microscopical level using different characterizations techniques, such as Atomic Force Microscopy, Reflection and Transmission measurements, High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy, Energy-Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. The deep knowledge and improved understanding of the basic physical properties of these quite complex, multi-phase and multi-component systems, made by nanocrystals and amorphous phases, will contribute to improve the efficiency of Si based solar cells.

description: Studied in this thesis is the response of a specific spring-mass damper design used for the deployment of a lunar base. Several variations of the geometric model are employed including a linear decoupled, linear coupled, nonlinear decoupled, and nonlinear coupled model. What has been shown is that these models can help inform design of a base and to predict the motion of the lander and provide useful information on the positions, velocities, and accelerations of different parts of the structure. Additionally, a large portion of this research work includes the analysis of the slider-crank mechanism which can also be a useful model for the deployment of lunar bases.
An examination of differences in acute nicotine withdrawal symptoms between electronic nicotine delivery system and combustible cigarette use
Creators: name: Versella, Mark Vincent
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: Acute nicotine withdrawal symptoms have been identified as a barrier to cessation among combustible cigarette smokers. Despite its clinical relevance, work examining acute withdrawal manifestation in electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDs) users has been sparse. Of the few investigations that have examined withdrawal from ENDs broadly, findings indicate that its symptom intensity is less than withdrawal from combustible cigarettes. The current study aimed to examine multimodal differences in acute nicotine withdrawal symptoms between ENDs users and combustible cigarette smokers. Users of ENDs (n=24) or combustible cigarettes (n=10) completed assessments of autonomic reactivity when using nicotine ad-libitum, and after 24-hour abstention. Users also self-reported withdrawal intensity during abstention via ecological momentary assessment. ENDs and combustible cigarette users evinced differences in self-reported withdrawal symptom trajectory. ENDs users reported a more rapid decrease in positive affect than combustible cigarette users, and combustible cigarette users displaying trending effects suggesting a more rapid increase in sadness withdrawal symptoms than ENDs users during 24-hour abstention. No differences in autonomic reactivity were observed between groups. Generalization of findings is limited due to the small and unbalanced sample. However, this study suggests that ENDs and combustible cigarette users perceive differences in their withdrawal experiences, which merits continued investigation.

description: Telecommunication providers continuously evolve their network infrastructure by increasing performance, lowering time to market, providing new services, and reducing the cost of the infrastructure and its operation. Network function virtualization (NFV) on commodity hardware offers an attractive, low‐cost platform to establish innovations much faster than with purpose‐built hardware products. Unfortunately, implementing NFV on commodity processors does not match the performance requirements of the high‐throughput data plane components in large carrier access networks. Therefore, programmable hardware architectures like field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), network processors, and switch silicon supporting the flexibility of the P4 language offer a promising way to account for both performance requirements and the demand to quickly introduce innovations into networks. In this article, we propose a way to offer residential network access with programmable packet processing architectures. On the basis of the highly flexible P4 programming language, we present a design and open source implementation of a broadband network gateway (BNG) data plane that meets the challenging demands of BNGs in carrier‐grade environments. In addition, we introduce a concept of hybrid openBNG design, realizing the required hierarchical quality of service (HQoS) functionality in a subsequent FPGA. The proposed evaluation results show the desired performance characteristics, and our proposed design together with upcoming P4 hardware can offer a giant leap towards highest performance NFV network access.

description: Supply chain management has emerged as cross functional, cross company concept to improve coordination of entire value chains through coordinated actions of all companies in the value chain. It has received a major push from the availability of Internet-based information and communication technologies. The conditions in certain sectors are favorable for a realization of chain wide supply chain management. In other sectors, however, conditions are more complex and companies and value chains still struggle to exploit the potentials from supply chain management, in particular when it comes to cross enterprise coordination. This paper takes a complex supply network as example and discusses improvement potentials from supply chain management and developments in their implementation as well as barriers to the realization of chain wide supply chain management.

description: To comply with Section 402, Title 23 of the United States Code, each state is required to prepare a annual highway safety program. Kentucky's program, which includes identification, programming, budgeting, and evaluation of highway safety projects, is intended to have a positive impact on the reduction of traffic accidents. The first step in the program, problem identification, requires systematic, statistical analyses of accident records. In-depth analyses of accident data were performed, and 25 problem areas were investigated. Accident rates were found for counties and cities in the following categories: total accidents, fatal accidents, accidents by driver age and sex, and speed-, alcohol-, and drug-related accidents. In addition, rates were reported for accidents involving pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles, school buses, tractor-trailers, single-unit trucks, railroad trains, and emergency vehicles.

description: The exact ground state of the many-body Schrödinger equation for $N$ bosons on a one-dimensional ring interacting via pairwise $δ$-function interaction is presented for up to fifty particles. The solutions are obtained by solving Lieb and Liniger's system of coupled transcendental equations for finite $N$. The ground state energies for repulsive and attractive interaction are shown to be smoothly connected at the point of zero interaction strength, implying that the \emph{Bethe-ansatz} can be used also for attractive interaction for all cases studied. For repulsive interaction the exact energies are compared to (i) Lieb and Liniger's thermodynamic limit solution and (ii) the Tonks-Girardeau gas limit. It is found that the energy of the thermodynamic limit solution can differ substantially from that of the exact solution for finite $N$ when the interaction is weak or when $N$ is small. A simple relation between the Tonks-Girardeau gas limit and the solution for finite interaction strength is revealed. For attractive interaction we find that the true ground state energy is given to a good approximation by the energy of the system of $N$ attractive bosons on an infinite line, provided the interaction is stronger than the critical interaction strength of mean-field theory.

Raised Pavement Markers at High-Hazard Locations

Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky
Year: 1979
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: Even though a large number of potentially hazardous locations exist on rural, two-lane roads, guidelines have not been developed for use of raised pavement markers under night and during adverse weather conditions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of raised markers at a sharp curve and narrow bridge in Kentucky. Visual observations, speed data, encroachment data, and accident data were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the markers.  Extensive visual observations of the sharp curve and narrow bridge in this study have provided data to support recommendations for improved delineation at similar sites on rural, two-lane and four-lane roads. The best delineation found for sharp curves is to place raised markers on the centerline at 40-foot (12.2-m) spacings. At narrow bridge sites (bridge width less than approach width), raised markers should be placed at a decreasing spacing when approaching the bridge. The number of markers required and the location at which they should begin were also determined. A delineation improvement program for narrow bridges and sharp curves involving raised markers would mainly apply to rural areas. Snowplow damage could make use of conventional markers impractical.
How well do we know the age and mass distributions of the star cluster system in the Large Magellanic Cloud?

description: [ABRIDGED] The LMC star cluster system offers the unique opportunity to independently check the accuracy of age and mass determinations based on a number of complementary techniques, including isochrone analysis. Using our sophisticated tool for star cluster analysis based on broad-band spectral energy distributions (SEDs), we reanalyse the Hunter et al. (2003) LMC cluster photometry. Our main aim is to set the tightest limits yet on the accuracy of ABSOLUTE age determinations based on broad-band SEDs, and therefore on the usefulness of such an approach. Our broad-band SED fits yield reliable ages, with statistical absolute uncertainties within Delta[log(Age/yr)] = 0.4 overall. The systematic differences we find with respect to previous age determinations are caused by conversions of the observational photometry to a different filter system. The LMC's cluster formation rate (CFR) has been roughly constant outside of the well-known age gap between ~3 and 13 Gyr, when the CFR was a factor of ~5 lower. We derive the characteristic cluster disruption time-scale, log(t_4^dis/yr) = 9.9 +- 0.1, where t_dis = t_4^dis (M_cl/10^4 Msun)^0.62. This long characteristic disruption time-scale implies that we are observing the INITIAL cluster mass function (CMF). We conclude that the youngest mass and luminosity-limited LMC cluster subsets show shallower slopes than the slope of alpha = -2 expected (at least below masses of a few x 10^3 Msun), which is contrary to dynamical expectations. This may imply that the initial CMF slope of the LMC cluster system as a whole is NOT well represented by a power-law, although we cannot disentangle the unbound from the bound clusters at the youngest ages.

was discovered in the downstream section of the Ayeyarwady River, Myanmar (Figure 1). In particular, its sample (3 living specimens and 7 recently dead shells; lot RMBH biv1557) was collected on 15 February 2024 from an irrigation canal near Shwe Taung Hmaw Village, 16.6390°N, 95.4175°E (Figures 2-3). Additionally, one empty shell of this alien species was sampled on 14 February 2024 from an irrigation canal near the Yelegale Police Station, 16.7317°N, 95.5284°E. Intensive searching efforts of our team and local villagers failed to find any living specimen from the latter locality. Both canals are characterized by clay bottom and are connected with the Ayeyarwady River during the rainy season.
Our sample of P. exilis from an irrigation canal near Shwe Taung Hmaw Village is represented by large specimens, the approximate age of which ranges from 2 to 5 years (Table 1 and Figure 2). The three sequenced specimens from Myanmar belong to a single COI haplotype (Figure 4). This haplotype is identical to that recorded from a pond in the Luang River basin, Mekong Drainage, Udon Thani Province, Thailand (17.4544°N, 102.8772°E; COI acc. No OP589076) (Appendix 1).

description: Because the impact of Taiwan jointing WTO and Taiwanese initiative of health, nature and no burden of life principle, so as to spur Taiwan to start promoting new tide of drinking organic tea. However, the needs of the information concerning with risk perception for organic tea consumer are more curious, thus the organic tea industry should know what the demands and concerns of their consumers. Hence, the purposes of this paper are to analyze what the concerns for organic tea consumers are and what the risk perceptions for the organic tea consumers are. The data used by this paper were from the sampling survey to interview 387 consumers located in middle Taiwan. This paper adopted AIO (Activity, Interest, and Opinion) to analyze the characteristics of consumers and then use the theory of risk perception to identify its risk perception. As the results, this paper gets three segments of perception risk, i.e., financial risk oriented, physical risk oriented, and performance risk oriented. Final, this paper suggests organic tea sellers could build a construction of organic tea that includes the production and pack product to the sale process.

description: We study the detectability of primordial metal-free stars. Cosmological enrichment is a local process that takes place over an extended redshift range. While the duration of this transition depends on several unknown factors, in all cases late-forming metal-free stars are found in ~ 10^8 solar mass objects, which are just large enough to cool, but small enough to not be clustered near areas of previous star formation. We discuss the observational properties of these objects, some of which may have already been detected in ongoing Lyman-alpha surveys. If metal-free stars have masses between 140 and 260 solar masses, they are expected to end their lives as pair-production supernovae (PPSNe). Using the KEPLER code, we calculate a set of light curves for these objects. The peak luminosities of typical PPSNe are only slightly greater than those of Type Ia supernovae, but they remain bright much longer (~ 1 year) and have hydrogen lines. Ongoing supernova searches are able to place stringent limits on the fraction of very massive stars out to redshift 2. The planned Joint Dark Energy Mission satellite will be able to extend these constraints out to redshift 6

description: We study a class of decoherence process which admits a 3 dimensional holographic bulk. Starting from a thermo-field double dual to a wormhole, we prepare another thermo-field double which plays the role of environment. By allowing the energy flow between the original and environment thermo-field double, the entanglement of the original thermo-field double eventually decoheres. We model this decoherence by four-boundary wormhole geometries, and study the time-evolution of the moduli parameters to see the change of the entanglement pattern among subsystems. A notable feature of this holographic decoherence processes is that at the end point of the processes, the correlations of the original thermo-field double are lost completely both classically and also quantum mechanically. We also discuss distinguishability between thermo-field double state and thermo mixed double state, which contains only classical correlations, and construct a code subspace toy model for that.

description: Merging neutron stars are expected to produce hot, metastable remnants in rapid differential rotation, which subsequently cool and evolve into rigidly rotating neutron stars or collapse to black holes. Studying this metastable phase and its further evolution is essential for the prediction and interpretation of the electromagnetic, neutrino, and gravitational signals from such a merger. In this work, we model binary neutron star merger remnants and propose new rotation and thermal laws that describe post-merger remnants. Our framework is capable to reproduce quasi-equilibrium configurations for generic equations of state, rotation and temperature profiles, including nonbarotropic ones. We demonstrate that our results are in agreement with numerical relativity simulations concerning bulk remnant properties like the mass, angular momentum, and the formation of a massive accretion disk. Because of the low computational cost for our axisymmetric code compared to full 3+1-dimensional simulations, we can perform an extensive exploration of the binary neutron star remnant parameter space studying several hundred thousand configurations for different equation of states.

We further explore the idea that a non-linear resonance mechanism, operating in strong-gravity regime, is responsible for these quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs). By extending the multiple-scales analysis of Rebusco, we construct two-dimensional phase-space sections, which enable us to identify different topologies governing the system and to follow evolutionary tracks of the twin peaks. This suggests that the original (Abramowicz and Kluzniak) parametric-resonance scheme can be viewed as an ingenuous account of the QPOs model with an internal resonance. We show an example of internal resonance in a system with up to two critical points, and we describe a general technique that permits to treat other cases in a systematical manner. A separatrix divides the phase-space sections into regions of different topology: inside the libration region the evolutionary tracks bring the observed twin-peak frequencies to an exact rational ratio, whereas in the circulation region the observed frequencies remain off resonance. Our scheme predicts the power should cyclically be exchanged between the two oscillations. Likewise the high-frequency QPOs in neutron-star binaries, also in black-hole sources one expects, as a general property of the non-linear model, that slight detuning pushes the twin-peak frequencies out of sharp resonance.

Limits to magnetic quantum criticality from nuclear spins

description: The phenomenology of quantum phase transitions concerns physics at low temperatures and energies, and corresponding solid-state experiments often reach millikelvin temperatures. However, this is a scale where in many solids the influence of nuclear spins and their hyperfine interaction is no longer negligible. This may limit the observability of electronic quantum critical phenomena. Here we discuss how continuous magnetic quantum phase transitions get influenced, modified, or destroyed by the coupling to nuclear spins. We use simple yet paradigmatic spin models for magnetic quantum criticality and determine modifications to the phase diagram, the excitation spectrum, and thermodynamics due to the presence of nuclear spins. We estimate crossover scales below which purely electronic quantum criticality is no longer observable, and discuss the novel physics emerging at low temperatures. Our results are relevant for a variety of compounds displaying magnetic quantum phase transitions and, more generally, highlight the sensitivity of quantum critical systems to small perturbations.

description: The stability of colliding Bose-Einstein condensates is investigated. A set of coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations is thus considered, and analyzed via a perturbative approach. No assumption is made on the signs (or magnitudes) of the relevant parameters like the scattering lengths and the coupling coefficients. The formalism is therefore valid for asymmetric as well as symmetric coupled condensate wave states. A new set of explicit criteria is derived and analyzed. An extended instability region, in addition to an enhanced instability growth rate is predicted for unstable two component bosons, as compared to the individual (uncoupled) state.

The Volume of Black Holes

description: We propose a definition of volume for stationary spacetimes. The proposed volume is independent of the choice of stationary time-slicing, and applies even though the Killing vector may not be globally timelike. Moreover, it is constant in time, as well as simple: the volume of a spherical black hole in four dimensions turns out to be just ${4 \over 3} πr_+^3$. We then consider whether it is possible to construct spacetimes that have finite horizon area but infinite volume, by sending the radius to infinity while making discrete identifications to preserve the horizon area. We show that, in three or four dimensions, no such solutions exist that are not inconsistent in some way. We discuss the implications for the interpretation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy.

Accretion of the relativistic Vlasov gas onto a moving Schwarzschild black hole: Exact solutions

description: We derive an exact, axially symmetric solution representing stationary accretion of the relativistic, collisionless Vlasov gas onto a moving Schwarzschild black hole. The gas is assumed to be in thermal equilibrium at infinity, where it obeys the Maxwell-Jüttner distribution. The Vlasov equation is solved analytically in terms of suitable action-angle variables. We provide explicit expressions for the particle current density and accretion rates. In the limit of infinite asymptotic temperature of the gas, we recover the qualitative picture known form the relativistic Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion of the perfect gas with the ultra-hard equation of state, in which the mass accretion is proportional to the Lorentz factor associated with the black-hole velocity. For a finite asymptotic temperature, the mass accretion rate is not in general a monotonic function of the velocity of the black hole.

description: We perform a seismic study of the young massive $β$Cephei star HD 203664 with the goal to constrain its interior structure. Our study is based on a time series of 328 new Geneva 7-colour photometric data of the star spread over 496.8 days. The data confirm the frequency of the dominant mode of the star which we refine to $f_1=6.02885 $c d$^{-1}$. The mode has a large amplitude of 37 mmag in V and is unambiguously identified as a dipole mode ($\ell=2$) from its amplitude ratios and non-adiabatic computations. Besides $f_1$, we discover two additional new frequencies in the star with amplitudes above $4σ$: $f_2=6.82902 $c d$^{-1}$ and $f_3=4.81543 $c d$^{-1}$ or one of their daily aliases. The amplitudes of these two modes are only between 3 and 4 mmag which explains why they were not detected before. Their amplitude ratios are too uncertain for mode identification. We show that the observed oscillation spectrum of HD 203664 is compatible with standard stellar models but that we have insufficient information for asteroseismic inferences. Among the large-amplitude $β$Cephei stars, HD 203664 stands out as the only one rotating at a significant fraction of its critical rotation velocity ($\sim 40%$).
