description: Single occupancy vehicle (SOV) transportation is a key contributor to climate change and air pollution. Sustainable transportation (ST), commuting by any means other than SOV, could both slow climate change and enhance public health. The transtheoretical model (TTM) provides a useful framework for examining how people progress towards adopting ST. Short valid and reliable measures for ST decisional balance, self-efficacy, and climate change doubt were developed and their relationship with stages of change was examined. Two large university-based volunteer samples participated in measurement studies. Using multiple procedures, three brief internally consistent measures were developed: decisional balance, self-efficacy, and climate change doubt. The stages of change correctly discriminated both decisional balance and self-efficacy, as well as replicated hypothesized relationships. Climate change doubt did not vary by stages; however, it may prove useful in future studies. Results support the validation of these measures and the application of the TTM to ST.

description: A N3O Schiff base (L), 1:1 condensate of benzilmonohydrazone and 4-pyridine carboxaldehyde, and its Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ag(I) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and various spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structures of [ZnL2Br2] (1), [CdL2I2]·CH2Cl2, (2)·CH2Cl2 and [Ag(L)2]ClO4 (3) have been determined by using X-ray crystallography. The Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes show a tetrahedral configuration whereas in the asymmetric unit of 3, two independent coordination units of Ag(I) are present. Carbonyl – silver interaction, weak C-H∙∙∙O interaction and also π-π interaction are present in 3 in the solid state. The synthesized complexes have antibacterial activity against Klebsiellapneumoniae 114, Escherichi coli K88, Salmonella typhi ATCC 34, Bacillus subtilis UC564 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923. The results showed that in some cases the antibacterial activities of the complexes were comparable to standard antibiotics Tetracyclin and Streptomycin. The antifungal activities of the complexes were also studied for Aspergillusniger, Aspergillusoryzae, Penicilliumnotatum and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. MIC values of 1, 2·CH2Cl2 and 3 are less than the Nystatin standard.

description: [FeL3]·H2O (1) and [FeL2Q]·3H2O (2) (HL = sulfamethazine and HQ = 8-hydroxyquinoline) have been synthesized, characterized (elemental analysis, FT IR, UV-Vis., TGA, magnetic and conductivity) and tested for their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Theoretical calculations involving geometry optimization, natural orbital analysis, electronic spectra, and molecular electrostatic potential have been done at the DFT/B3LYP level of theory. The high 3d-electron contribution of 6.71 is accounted to L→dFe charge transfer. Coordination of HL to Fe(III) in 1 led to a significant decrease in the antibacterial activity, and presence of a secondary ligand in 2 completely abolished it.

Year: 2024

description: Software defect curves describe the behavior of the estimate of the number of remaining software defects as software testing proceeds. They are of two possible patterns: single-trapezoidal-like curves or multiple-trapezoidal-like curves. In this paper we present some necessary and/or sufficient conditions for software defect curves of the Goel-Okumoto NHPP model. These conditions can be used to predict the effect of the detection and removal of a software defect on the variations of the estimates of the number of remaining defects. A field software reliability dataset is used to justify the trapezoidal shape of software defect curves and our theoretical analyses. The results presented in this paper may provide useful feedback information for assessing software testing progress and have potentials in the emerging area of software cybernetics that explores the interplay between software and control.

description: Supplementary material of the paper published in: International Journal "Information Technologies & Knowledge" Vol.7, Number 1, 2013: 11-22. At present, all methods in Evolutionary Computation are bioinspired by the fundamental principles of neo-Darwinism, as well as by a vertical gene transfer. Virus transduction is one of the key mechanisms of horizontal gene propagation in microorganisms (e.g. bacteria). In the present paper, we model and simulate a transduction operator, exploring the possible role and usefulness of transduction in a genetic algorithm. The genetic algorithm including transduction has been named PETRI (abbreviation of Promoting Evolution Through Reiterated Infection). Our results showed how PETRI approaches higher fitness values as transduction probability comes close to 100%. The conclusion is that transduction improves the performance of a genetic algorithm, assuming a population divided among several sub-populations or ‘bacterial colonies’.

description: Supplementary material of the paper published in International Journal “Information Theories and Applications”, Vol. 17, Number 1, 2010: 49-61 One of the main problems in the statistical analysis of Evolutionary Computation (EC) experiments is the ‘statistical personality’ of data. A main feature of EC algorithms is the sampling of solutions from one generation to the next. Sampling is based on Holland’s schema theory, having a greater probability to be chosen those solutions with best-fitness (or evaluation) values. In consequence, simulation experiments result in biased samples with non-normal, highly skewed, and asymmetric distributions. Furthermore, the main problem arises with the noncompliance of one of the main premises of the central limit theorem, invalidating the statistical analysis based on the average fitness f of the solutions. In this paper, we address a tutorial or ‘How-to’ explaining the basics of the statistical analysis of data in EC. The use of nonparametric tests for comparing two or more medians combined with Exploratory Data Analysis is a good option, bearing in mind that we are only considering two experimental situations that are common in EC practitioners: (i) the performance evaluation of an algorithm and (ii) the multiple experiments comparison. The different approaches are illustrated with different examples (see http://bioinformatica.net/tests/survey.html) selected from Evolutionary Computation and the related field of Artificial Life.

title: Multi-fluid modelling of idealized convection
Creators: name: Shipley, Dan
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2022

description: Atmospheric convection is hugely important for weather and climate prediction, but
parametrizations of the process in weather and climate models often behave poorly.
Traditional parametrization assumptions break down at resolutions comparable to
the dominant energy-containing structures. Lack of understanding of this convective “grey zone” is one of the biggest barriers to improving our representation of
convection.
The grey zone is a concept that applies to any turbulent flow — dry or moist.
Therefore this thesis focuses on the simplest convection problem: Rayleigh-B´enard
convection (RBC). It is shown that RBC possesses remarkably similar grey zone
behaviour to that observed in numerical weather prediction models.
In convection, large portions of the turbulent fluxes are carried by coherent
structures. This motivates the split into “convection” and “environment” underlying traditional mass flux schemes, which can be generalized via conditional filtering.
Introducing explicit discontinuous fluid relabelling terms leads to a multi-fluid equation set that is more complete than those currently published. New expressions for
resolved relabelling terms are derived, and an argument is presented linking pressure
differences between fluids to an isotropic stress introduced by relabelling.
To show the validity of the multi-fluid approach, a 1D, time-dependent model
of RBC is developed. The model has one rising and one falling fluid, and assumes
that this split captures all subfilter variability. A scaling argument for the pressure
differences between fluids reduces the free parameters to two O(1) constants. After determining these constants, correct scalings of the domain-averaged heat and
momentum fluxes are predicted over six decades of buoyancy forcing. Thus even a
simple two-fluid model can capture the essentials of convection.
In 2D, the same model formulation improves initiation of convection across the
grey zone, and reduces sensitivity of heat and momentum fluxes to grid spacing,
compared to a single-fluid model with constant viscosity. It is shown that the closures successful in a single column do not provide sufficient constraint to maintain
the correct sign of vertical velocity in the grey zone. The need for better understanding of the relabelling terms and their resolution-dependence emerges as the
key barrier to progress.

using nickel-diimine catalysts. These polymers were characterised by DSC, SEC, WAXS and
preliminary stress-strain studies. The results show considerable decrease in melting temperature
and crystallinity when compared to standard HDPE or LDPE samples. This non-rigid structure is
responsible for the elastomeric properties of these materials. It was possible to show that

description: The COVID-19 pandemic created an unprecedented shock to capture fisheries and aquaculture sectors. This scoping review of 670 articles explored the spatial, temporal, and thematic coverage of this event. The search period was January 1, 2020 to February 7, 2022. Articles were mainly peer-reviewed journals (88%) with the remainder from the gray literature (12%). Studies were performed at the global (21%), multi-country (11%), national (45%), and sub-national (23%) levels. Most studies involved primary or secondary data collection (71%) and the remainder were either review articles (17%) or commentaries (12%). Among the studies using primary and secondary data, nearly half (49%) were performed in the first five months of the pandemic (March to July 2020), and 84% within the first year of the pandemic (March 2020–February 2021). There were many studies in South and Southeast Asia, Southern Europe, China, and the United States, and fewer studies in other regions. The pandemic created challenges and opportunities, with heterogeneity in impacts among industrial and small-scale sectors, production methods, geographies, value chains, and by gender. Cumulative impacts from climate change and conflicts contributed to pandemic-related hardships. Increased unemployment and inflation led to rising food insecurity for small-scale producers, fishworkers, and low-income households. Aquatic food intake was more severely affected than other food groups during lockdowns, and it decreased more in low- and middle-income countries than in high-income countries. Responses were diverse, reflecting the capacity and resources of a country, but in general there was unprecedented public support to sustain the private sector (i.e., income support, tax relief, subsidies). As this study focused mainly on the first year of the pandemic, future work is needed to identify which groups exited the pandemic stronger or weaker, what factors enabled some populations to bounce-back, how the crisis affected value chains, and the effectiveness of interventions.

A decision-theoretic approach to the test allocation problem in partition testing
Creators: name: Chen, Tsong

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: A partition testing strategy consists of two components: a partitioning scheme which determines the way in which the program’s input domain is partitioned into subdomains, and an allocation of test cases which determines the exact number of test cases selected from each subdomain. This paper investigates the problem of determining the test allocation when a particular partitioning scheme has been chosen. We show that this problem can be formulated as a classic problem of decision-making under uncertainty, and analyze several well known criteria to resolve this kind of problem. We present algorithms that solve the test allocation problem based on these criteria, and evaluate these criteria by means of a simulation experiment.We also discuss the applicability and implications of applying these criteria in the context of partition testing.
title: Gamified monetary reward designs: Offering certain versus chance‐based rewards

description: To motivate visitors to engage with websites, e‐tailers widely employ monetary rewards (e.g., vouchers, discounts) in their website designs. With advances in user interface technologies, many e‐tailers have started to offer gamified monetary reward designs (MRDs), which require visitors to earn the monetary reward by playing a game, rather than simply claiming the reward. However, little is known about whether and why gamified MRDs engage visitors compared to their non‐gamified counterpart. Even less is known about the effectiveness of gamified MRDs when providing certain or chance‐based rewards, in that visitors do or do not know what reward they will gain for successfully performing in the game. Drawing on cognitive evaluation theory, we investigate gamified MRDs with certain or chance‐based rewards and contrast them to non‐gamified MRDs with certain rewards in user registration systems. Our results from a multi‐method approach encompassing the complementary features of a randomised field experiment (N = 651) and a randomised online experiment (N = 330) demonstrate differential effects of the three investigated MRDs on user registration. Visitors encountering either type of gamified MRD are more likely to register than those encountering a non‐gamified MRD. Moreover, gamified MRDs with chance‐based rewards have the highest likelihood of user registrations. We also show that MRDs have distinct indirect effects on user registration via anticipated experiences of competence and sensation. Overall, the paper offers theoretical insights and practical guidance on how and why gamified MRDs are effective for e‐tailers.

description: Il volume raccoglie gli esiti del ciclo di seminari internazionali organizzato durante la pandemia all’interno della Scuola di Specializzazione in Beni Architettonici e del Paesaggio di Sapienza Università di Roma. Questa raccolta di testimonianze di studiosi, accademici e professionisti attivi nel campo del restauro architettonico in vari ambiti geoculturali, intende proporre la varietà di chiavi interpretative con cui è intesa oggi la conservazione del patrimonio architettonico nel contesto internazionale, pur senza la pretesa di ricostruire il quadro completo del “restauro nel mondo”, evidentemente troppo complesso e vasto per poter essere riassunto in poche pagine.

The volume collects the results of the series of international seminars organized during the pandemic within the courses of the Post-graduate School in Architectural Heritage and Landscape of Sapienza University of Rome. This collection of records on restoration proposed by scholars, academics, and professionals active in various geo-cultural contexts, aims at offering interpretation keys to different approaches to the conservation of architectural heritage in the international context, and not a complete framework of “conservation in the world”, which is evidently too complex and vast to be summarized in few pages.

description: A method for transforming continuous monitoring (CM) fine particulate matter (aerodynamic diameter <2.5 μm; PM2.5) data (i.e., by tapered element oscillating microbalance [TEOM]) obtained from the Canadian National Air Pollution Surveillance (NAPS) program to meet the data quality objective (DQO) of R2 > 0.8 against the co-located federal reference method (i.e., dichotomous air sampler) is described. By using a two-step linear regression to account for the effect of the ambient temperature, 16 out of the 23 examined sites met the common model adequacy threshold of R2 > 0.8. After the transformation, 20 out of the 23 examined sites met the DQO of R2 > 0.7, as recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A combined two-step statistical approach was also examined and revealed similar results. The methods described herein show that the CM data can be successfully transformed to meet DQOs for representative sites across Canada using year-round (both summer and winter) data. Implications:This study provides a transformation approach to correct ambient TEOM data against the federal reference method without dividing the ambient data according to warm and cold seasons. This transformation approach will significantly improve the correlation coefficient between TEOM and dichotomous air sampler data. It is possible that TEOM data at many Canadian locations can be transformed to meet the EPA data quality objective, thus making this transformation approach useful for comparisons of ambient PM data across jurisdictions.

description: Several researchers have studied suicide seasonality through different statistical approaches. In the present research, we performed a detailed statistical study of Brazilian suicide data registered from 1980 to 2010 using a new approach known as Threshold Bias Model (TBM). Eleven-year cyclic oscillations were observed in suicide rates that, at first sight, appear as being negatively correlated with the cycles of solar activity. Such oscillations are more noticeable for males although they also have been observed in the female rates.

description: A simple model (the Threshold Bias Model) was tested for comparative and predictive analyses of suicide rates by age. The model comprises of a six parameter distribution that was applied to the USA suicide rates by age for the years 2001 and 2002. Posteriorly, linear extrapolations are performed of the parameter values previously obtained for these years in order to estimate the values corresponding to the year 2003. The calculated distributions agreed reasonably well with the aggregate data. The model was also used to determine the age above which suicide rates become statistically observable in USA, Brazil and Sri Lanka.
A review of blast and impact of metallic and sandwich structures
Creators: name: Zhu, F.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In blast and impact, structures usually undergo large plastic deformations or failure, and they absorb considerable energy. In this paper, the characteristics of blast loads and corresponding structural response, as well as the current advances in this area, were briefly reviewed. The concept and effects of blast wave, the main means of blast impact, are introduced. Several critical structural responses are classified and briefly illustrated. The major experimental methods were introduced with a brief description of corresponding experimental devices such as ballistic pendulums and a wide range of sensors to measure impulse, pressure and acceleration and displacement of structures. Several commonly used analytical models were presented and compared to estimate the dynamic behaviour of structure under blast loading. The numerical approaches to analyze the structure responses to blast impact were also summarised with a number of available constitutive relations of explosive charge and material properties of structures.
The real-time city: Unlocking the potential of smart mobility

description: Cities around the world are increasingly becoming a complex network of systems that are instrumented and interconnected. An 'Internet of Things' comprising sensors and mobile devices all communicating with each other in real-time to enhance urban life and improve productivity and resilience. In transport, the convergence of physical and digital worlds is creating unprecedented opportunities to enhance the travel experience for millions of people and businesses every day. Disruptive and emerging forces - including automated self-driving, on-demand shared mobility and big data analytics are expected to change the mobility landscape and provide travellers with more choices to meet their travel needs while reducing reliance on building additional infrastructure. The coming together of these trends is providing new opportunities to 'sense the city' and unlock operational innovations and access to high-quality urban mobility. Through data mining, artificial intelligence and predictive analytics, smart mobility systems can help city managers monitor the performance of vital infrastructure, identify key areas where city services are lagging, and inform decision makers on how to manage city growth. This paper describes how digital innovations are providing opportunities to enable real-time measurement and analysis of urban mobility. The paper draws on practical applications, case studies and modelling results, and describes the major behavioural and technological changes, and the new mobility business models that would be required to achieve the desired targets and outcomes. The paper also discusses the implications of emerging mobility solutions such as 'vehicle autonomy' and 'autonomous shared mobility-on-demand'. Finally, the paper provides a critical reflection on the value derived from typical smart mobility 'use cases' and identifies the policy principles which are central to the success of smart mobility.

description: ABSTRACT:This study applies a mental models survey approach to assess public thinking about oil spills and oil spill response. Based on prior interdisciplinary oil spill response research, the study first applies qualitative interview results and a response risk decision model to the design of a survey instrument. The decision model considers controlled burning, public health and seafood safety. Surveying U.S. coastal residents (36,978 pairs of responses) through Google Insights identifies beliefs and gaps in understanding as well as related values and preferences about oil spills, and oil spill responses. A majority of respondents are concerned about economic impacts of major oil spills, and tend to see ocean ecosystems as fragile. They tend to see information about chemical dispersants as more important than ecological baseline information, and dispersants as toxic, persistent, and less effective than other response options. Although respondents regard laboratory studies as predictive of the effects of oil and of controlled burning, they are less confident that scientists agree on the toxicity and effectiveness of dispersants. The results illustrate opportunities to reframe discussions of oil spill response in terms of tradeoffs between response options, and new possibilities for assessing public opinions and beliefs during events.
title: Experimental studies on the infectibility of anopheles gambiae with malaria parasites
Creators: name: Graves, P
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 1980

description: The feasibility of introducing genes for refractoriness to malaria into populations of Anopheles gambiae s.s.. is studied. Morphologically wild-type strains of A. grunbiae s.s. refractory and susceptible to Plasmodimo yoelii nigeriensis were selected, although complete refractoriness was not achieved. In crosses between the strains refractoriness showed intermediate dominance. In a cage replacement experiment, the susceptibility of a population of A. gambiae s.s. to P. y. nigeriensis was reduced from 100% to 600% by 8 generations of releases of refractory males. The susceptibility of the population showed no reversion towards the original high level after 15 more generations of breeding without releases or artificial selection. This indicated that the low fitness which had been observed in the refractory strains was not conferred by the refractoriness genes, since these were able to recombine into a mere well-adapted genome. The population cage results were compared with those expected on a simple theoretical model. The reliability of a membrane-feeding technique for producing infections of P. falciuarum in A. gambiae s.s. was studied in The Gambia. It was observed that the infeotivity of P. falciparum gametooyte carriers depended largely on the gametocytaemia. Selection to produce a strain of A. gambiae s.s, completely refractory to P. falciparum did not succeed, and there were indications that the local strain had a low or zero frequency of genes for refractoriness. It was shown that strains refractory to P. y. nigeriensis were not refractory to P. falciparum. Oocyst counts of P. falciparum were found to be distributed according to the negative binomial distribution. The possible means of introducing refractoriness genes into mosquito populations are discussed, taking into account the fitness of refractory types both in the presence and absence of malaria infection.
