Creators: name: Keresztes, Melissa

Year: 2022

description: The prevalence of mental health including anxiety, depression, and stress are a growing concern in the United States. Women specifically, experience mental health issues at higher levels than men as well as bear the responsibility of influencing the weight-related behaviors of their children. Limited research has investigated anxiety, depression, and stress in mothers of school age children with the current literature primarily related to pre- and postpartum mothers. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the relationships of mental health characteristics with weight-related cognitions, home environments, and behaviors of mothers with school-age children (6 to 11 years-old). Mothers (N=531) with school-age children engaged in the online home “Home Obesogenicity Measure of EnvironmentS”- 2 (HOMES-2) survey, consisting of various scales evaluating health status, weight-related cognitions, behaviors, and home environment characteristics. Overall, mothers clustered into four groups revealed an incline of anxiety, depression and stress symptoms as cluster groups increased. Mothers with poorer symptoms of mental health had a decline in general health rating, had more days of poor physical and mental health, and more days of health impaired activities. Maternal findings on how weight-related cognitions, home environment characteristics, and behaviors differed by maternal mental health status revealed a negative trend in those mothers reporting poorer mental health. Family mealtime was less frequent at home and home environment characteristics were less than ideal in mothers with poorer mental health. Mothers with greater mental health symptoms had more availability of sugar-sweetened beverages, consumed more sugar-sweetened beverages as did their children, and had more family meals in unhealthy locations. Study results of maternal weight-related behaviors showed that mothers with poorer mental health got less sleep and had poorer eating behaviors. Likewise, children of mothers with poorer mental health paralleled these findings when comparing child health weight related behaviors. The study findings suggest that maternal mental health has strong links to maternal weight-related cognitions, maternal and child health behaviors, and home environments. Thus, maternal mental health status should be considered when assessing nutritional health and addressed in interventions seeking to improve nutritional health.

description: The development of biometrics is growing rapidly. The recognition as non-trivial element in biometrics is not only using fingerprints, but also human face. The purpose of this research is to implement both Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) methods in the face recognition system with a combination of features extraction. CBIR method interprets images by exploiting several features. The feature usually consists of texture, color, and shape. This research utilizes color, texture, shape and shape coordinate features of the image. The proposed algorithms are HSV Color Histogram, Color Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (CLCM), Eccentricity, Metric, and Hierarchical Centroid. SVM method is used to train and classify the extracted vectors. The result shows that the proposed system is 95% accurate in recognizing faces with different resolutions.

Publisher: name: TEM Journal
Year: 2019

description: The problem of irregular sitting position of pupils during classes in schools occurs in everyday life, depending on the use of a workbench, which results in deepening the problems of a spinal column loading. Spinal load analysis was performed by a software simulation depending on a seating position in the school bench. Processing the data in Excel, the current utilization of the workbench surface was determined and then a new design offered. The results of the work offer a completely new design of the school bench with a special emphasis on the surface of the workbench, as well as the optimum seating position for pupils during classes, resulting in spinal relief and an increased seating comfort.

description: Although the Sun's polar magnetic fields are thought to provide important clues for understanding the 11-year sunspot cycle, including the observed variations of its amplitude and period, the current database of high-quality polar-field measurements spans relatively few sunspot cycles. In this paper we address this deficiency by consolidating Mount Wilson Observatory polar faculae data from four data reduction campaigns, validating it through a comparison with facular data counted automatically from MDI intensitygrams, and calibrating it against polar field measurements taken by the Wilcox Solar Observatory and average polar field and total polar flux calculated using MDI line-of-sight magnetograms. Our results show that the consolidated polar facular measurements are in excellent agreement with both polar field and polar flux estimates, making them an ideal proxy to study the evolution of the polar magnetic field. Additionally, we combine this database with sunspot area measurements to study the role of the polar magnetic flux in the evolution of the heliospheric magnetic field (HMF). We find that there is a strong correlation between HMF and polar flux at solar minimum and that, taken together, polar flux and sunspot area are better at explaining the evolution of the HMF during the last century than sunspot area alone.

Effect of elastomeric bridge bearings on fatigue cracking of supporting steel members

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: This study investigated the root cause behind unique fatigue cracking in the upper flange of the floor beam of a bridge with steel superstructure and concrete deck, particularly at the bolt holes of the replacement elastomeric bearings under stringers, following a major deck rehabilitation. Such rehabilitation is common for extending service life of highway bridges. The replacement bearing assembly was restrained to the floor beam upper flange using high strength bolts that were specified to be pretensioned to 35 kips. The critical stresses in the floor beam upper flange and the bearing assembly under the stringer due to AASHTO HL-93 loading were determined by 3D FEA of a local model of the structure including a part of the stringer, the elastomeric bearing assembly under the stringer and part of a floor beam. The reinforced elastomeric bearing was modeled including the elastomer layers and the reinforcing steel shims. The elastomer material was modeled as incompressible and hyper elastic. Effect of bolt pretension was considered.The analyses demonstrated that the main reason for the cracking of the floor beam upper flange and bolt fracture was pretensioning of the high strength bolts in the elastomeric bearing system. Deformation of the bearings under live load introduced bending and high cyclic stresses in the bolts that led to fatigue cracking from the root of the bolt threads. The large stress range in the bolts also introduced high stress ranges in the floor beam upper flange around the bolt holes, and at the end of the bearing stiffener-to-flange connection, leading to fatigue cracking. Among several retrofit options evaluated for mitigating the observed cracking, releasing the pretension of the elastomeric bearing bolts was found to be the most cost effective. The efficacy of this retrofit was further verified by investigating crack propagation under live load employing 3D FEA. Based on this research it is recommended that elastomeric bridge bearings and its assembly, while becoming increasingly popular in recent years, should be adequately detailed to prevent unintended consequences due to their interaction with the supporting steel members.

description: We construct a lattice kinetic scheme to study electronic flow in graphene. For this purpose, we first derive a basis of orthogonal polynomials, using as weight function the ultrarelativistic Fermi-Dirac distribution at rest. Later, we use these polynomials to expand the respective distribution in a moving frame, for both cases, undoped and doped graphene. In order to discretize the Boltzmann equation and make feasible the numerical implementation, we reduce the number of discrete points in momentum space to 18 by applying a Gaussian quadrature, finding that the family of representative wave (2+1)-vectors, that satisfies the quadrature, reconstructs a honeycomb lattice. The procedure and discrete model are validated by solving the Riemann problem, finding excellent agreement with other numerical models. In addition, we have extended the Riemann problem to the case of different dopings, finding that by increasing the chemical potential, the electronic fluid behaves as if it increases its effective viscosity.

description: Schriftliche Stellungnahme
- zum Antrag: "Mindestlohn sichern – Umgehungen verhindern" der Fraktion "Die Linke"  (Drucksache 18/4183)
- zur Unterrichtung durch das Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales "Bericht des IAB"  (Ausschussdrucksache 18 (11)504)

Kurz gefasst

Der zum 01.01.2015 eingeführte gesetzliche Mindestlohn ist nicht nur gut „verkraftet“ worden, sondern wirkt selbst auch als Motor der robusten privaten Nachfrage. Fraglich ist allerdings, ob der Mindestlohn auch in allen Betrieben real umgesetzt wird und es nicht zu Versuchen kommt, ihn zu umgehen.

Vor allem für geringfügig Beschäftigte, Frauen und Unqualifizierte sowie die Beschäftigten in den typischen Niedriglohnbranchen brachte der Mindestlohn merkliche Einkommenserhöhungen. Diese können – bei gegebener Arbeitszeit – sehr schnell dazu führen, dass die Geringfügigkeitsschwelle überschritten wird. Da das Monatseinkommen nicht höher als 450 Euro liegen darf, errechnet sich eine maximale regelmäßige Arbeitszeit von 52,9 Stunden im Monat bzw. 12,3 Stunden in der Woche, bis zu der die Arbeitnehmer keine Steuern und Sozialversicherungsbeiträge zahlen müssen.

Auffällig ist, dass nach Einführung des Mindestlohns gerade in den sogenannten Niedriglohnbranchen die geringfügige Nebenbeschäftigung durch diese Zeitbegrenzung nicht zurückgegangen ist, sondern sich sogar erhöht hat. Offenbar gibt es große Anreize, die Stundenzahl fehlerhaft anzugeben – einerseits für die Arbeitgeber von Vorteil, weil sie effektive Stundenlöhne unterhalb des Mindestlohns zahlen, und anderseits für die Beschäftigten, weil sie keinen Einbruch bei ihren Nettoverdiensten hinnehmen müssen.

Diese Konstellation verhindert einen Ausbruch aus dem „gläsernen Gefängnis“ der Minijobs, obgleich der Übergang in ein reguläres Beschäftigungsverhältnis arbeitsmarkt- und sozialpolitisch erwünscht und für die Beschäftigten in längerfristiger Sicht vorteilhaft wäre. An der Arbeitszeitdokumentation bei den Minijobs muss deshalb unbedingt festgehalten werden, notwendig ist eine wirksame Kontrolle. Lösen lässt sich dieses Problem aber nur durch die überfällige Neuregelung sowohl der geringfügigen Beschäftigung als auch des Steuerrechts.

description: A time and space inhomogeneous Markov process is a Feller evolution process, if the corresponding evolution system on the continuous functions vanishing at infinity is strongly continuous. We discuss generators of such systems and show that under mild conditions on the generators a Feller evolution can be approximated by Markov chains with Lévy increments. The result is based on the approximation of the time homogeneous space-time process corresponding to a Feller evolution process. In particular, we show that a $d$-dimensional Feller evolution corresponds to a $d+1$-dimensional Feller process. It is remarkable that, in general, this Feller process has a generator with discontinuous symbol.

description: Aim of the research was measuring the heat transfer coefficient of the external walls at the Mechanical Engineering Faculty building with heat flow method, in order to obtain the real value of heat transfer coefficient. After performing the measuring according to the ISO 9869 for in-situ measurement, the average measured heat transfer coefficient was 0.23 W/m2K, which is lower value compared to the calculated one, 0.33 W/m2K, according to the program (KiExpert). Difference between values is the result of limitations in selection of materials and because heat accumulation in building elements is not sufficiently considered in algorithms of the program.

description: We have characterized the amount, spatial distribution and kinematics of the molecular gas in the merging, double nucleus type 2 quasar SDSS J0025-10 at z=0.30 using the CO(1-0) transition, based on data obtained with ATCA. This is one of the scarce examples of quasar host galaxies where the CO emission has been resolved spatially at any redshift. We infer a molecular gas mass M(H2) = (6 +/- 1) x 1e9 Msun, which is distributed in two main reservoirs separated by ~9 kpc. ~60% of the gas is in the central region, associated with the QSO nucleus and/or the intermediate region between the two nuclei. The other 40% is associated with the northern tidal tail and is therefore unsettled. With its high infrared luminosity L(IR) = (1.1 +/- 0.3) x 1e12 Lsun, SDSS J0025-10 is an analogue of local luminous LIRGs and ULIRGs. On the other hand, the clear evidence for an ongoing major merger of two gas rich progenitors, the high L(IR) dominated by a starburst, the massive reservoir of molecular gas with a large fraction still unsettled, and the quasar activity are all properties consistent with a transition phase in the (U)LIRG-optical QSO evolutionary scenario. We propose that we are observing the system during a particular transient phase, prior to more advanced mergers where the nuclei have already coalesced. We argue that a fraction of the molecular gas reservoir is associated with a tidal dwarf galaxy identified in the optical HST image at the tip of the northern tidal tail. The formation of such structures is predicted by simulations of colliding galaxies.

description: While the use of statistical physics methods to analyze large corpora has been useful to unveil many patterns in texts, no comprehensive investigation has been performed investigating the properties of statistical measurements across different languages and texts. In this study we propose a framework that aims at determining if a text is compatible with a natural language and which languages are closest to it, without any knowledge of the meaning of the words. The approach is based on three types of statistical measurements, i.e. obtained from first-order statistics of word properties in a text, from the topology of complex networks representing text, and from intermittency concepts where text is treated as a time series. Comparative experiments were performed with the New Testament in 15 different languages and with distinct books in English and Portuguese in order to quantify the dependency of the different measurements on the language and on the story being told in the book. The metrics found to be informative in distinguishing real texts from their shuffled versions include assortativity, degree and selectivity of words. As an illustration, we analyze an undeciphered medieval manuscript known as the Voynich Manuscript. We show that it is mostly compatible with natural languages and incompatible with random texts. We also obtain candidates for key-words of the Voynich Manuscript which could be helpful in the effort of deciphering it. Because we were able to identify statistical measurements that are more dependent on the syntax than on the semantics, the framework may also serve for text analysis in language-dependent applications.

description: Aims: A strong, hard X-ray flare was discovered (IGR J12580+0134) by INTEGRAL in 2011, and is associated to NGC 4845, a Seyfert 2 galaxy never detected at high-energy previously. To understand what happened we observed this event in the X-ray band on several occasions. Methods: Follow-up observations with XMM-Newton, Swift, and MAXI are presented together with the INTEGRAL data. Long and short term variability are analysed and the event wide band spectral shape modelled. Results: The spectrum of the source can be described with an absorbed (N_H ~ 7x10^22 cm^{-2}) power law (Γ\simeq 2.2), characteristic of an accreting source, plus a soft X-ray excess, likely to be of diffuse nature. The hard X-ray flux increased to maximum in a few weeks and decreased over a year, with the evolution expected for a tidal disruption event. The fast variations observed near the flare maximum allowed us to estimate the mass of the central black hole in NGC 4845 as ~ 3x10^5 Msun. The observed flare corresponds to the disruption of about 10% of an object with a mass of 14-30 Jupiter. The hard X-ray emission should come from a corona forming around the accretion flow close to the black hole. This is the first tidal event where such a corona has been observed.

description: We study steady state of the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with inhomogeneous hopping rates associated with sites (site-wise disorder). Using the fact that the non-normalized steady-state weights which solve the master equation are polynomials in all the hopping rates, we propose a general method for calculating their first few lowest coefficients exactly. In case of binary disorder where all slow sites share the same hopping rate r<1, we apply this method to calculate steady-state current up to the quadratic term in r for some particular disorder configurations. For the most general (non-binary) disorder, we show that in the low-current regime the current is determined solely by the current-minimizing subset of equal hopping rates, regardless of other hopping rates. Our approach can be readily applied to any other driven diffusive system with unidirectional hopping if one can identify a hopping rate such that the current vanishes when this rate is set to zero.

description: The symmetry of the alignment mechanism in systems of polar self-propelled particles determines the possible macroscopic large-scale patterns that can emerge. Here we compare polar and apolar alignment.

Despite these similarities, there are essential differences like the symmetry of the ordered phase and the stability of the bands.

description: Ensuring data correctness over partitioned distributed database systems is a classical problem. Classical solutions proposed to solve this problem are mainly adopting locking or blocking techniques. These techniques are not suitable for cloud environments as they produce terrible response times; due to the long latency and faultiness of wide area network connections among cloud datacenters. One way to improve performance is to restrict access of users-bases to specific datacenters and avoid data sharing between datacenters. However, conflicts might appear when data is replicated between datacenters; nevertheless change propagation timeliness is not guaranteed. Such problems created data uncertainty on cloud environments. Managing data uncertainty is one of the main obstacles for supporting global distributed transactions on the clouds. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes an quota-based approach for managing data uncertainty on the clouds that guarantees global data correctness without global locking or blocking. To decouple service developers from the hassles of managing data uncertainty, we propose to use a new platform service (i.e. Data Consistency as a Service (DCaaS)) to encapsulate the proposed approach. DCaaS service also ensures SaaS services cloud portability, as it works as a cloud adapter between SaaS service instances. Experiments show that proposed approach realized by the DCaaS service provides much better response time when compared with classical locking and blocking techniques.

description: Kurz gefasst:

    Mit 8,50 € wurde das Niveau des Mindestlohns in Deutschland im Vergleich zu den ähnlich entwickelten westlichen Nachbarländern eher niedrig angesetzt. Trotzdem lag die Betroffenheit hier mit 18,9 Prozent wesentlich höher als in anderen EU-Ländern (dort meist deutlich unter 10 Prozent). Nach IAQ-Berechnungen verdienten 2013 rund 6,3 Millionen abhängig Beschäftigte weniger als 8,50 € pro Stunde.

    Der Mindestlohn hat ganz offensichtlich zu deutlichen Lohnerhöhungen im unteren Einkommensbereich geführt. Zum Teil kam es zu zweistelligen Erhöhungen der Stundenverdienste, wie etwa bei den vollzeitbeschäftigten Frauen im ostdeutschen Handel und Gastgewerbe. Die überdurchschnittlichen Verdienstzuwächse im unteren Lohnbereich belegen nachdrücklich, dass der Mindestlohn bei vielen Geringverdienern angekommen ist.

    Zu dem befürchteten Beschäftigungseinbruch auf dem Arbeitsmarkt infolge des Mindestlohns ist es nicht gekommen. Im Gegenteil: die Beschäftigung wächst weiterhin und kein Trendbruch ist erkennbar. Die Zunahme erfolgte vor allem bei der sozialversicherungspflichtigen Beschäftigung.

    Probleme ergeben sich zum Teil bei Umsetzung und Kontrolle des Mindestlohns. Die unzureichende Präzisierung der Anrechenbarkeit von Zulagen und Sonderzahlungen erschwert die Umsetzung. Wichtige Voraussetzungen für eine Kontrolle des Mindestlohns sowie abschreckende Sanktionen sind im Mindestlohngesetz mit der Aufzeichnungspflicht der Arbeitszeit bei geringfügig Beschäftigten, der Generalunternehmerhaftung sowie den Bußgeldvorschriften geschaffen worden.

    Umgehungen des Mindestlohns scheinen überwiegend durch eine unzureichende Aufzeichnung der Arbeitszeit zu erfolgen. Dabei geht es nicht nur um die tägliche und wöchentliche Arbeitszeit und unbezahlte Überstunden, sondern vor allem auch um die Bezahlung von Urlaub, Feier- und Krankheitstagen. Da viele Betriebe den rechtlichen Sonderstatus der geringfügig Beschäftigten zum Anlass nehmen, diese gesetzeswidrig anders zu behandeln, muss eine Reform der Minijobs auf die Tagesordnung gesetzt werden.

description: Observations support the view that feedback, in the form of radio outbursts from active nuclei in central galaxies, prevents catastrophic cooling of gas and rapid star formation in many groups and clusters of galaxies. Variations in jet power drive a succession of weak shocks that can heat regions close to the active galactic nuclei (AGN). On larger scales, shocks fade into sound waves. The Braginskii viscosity determines a well-defined sound damping rate in the weakly magnetized intracluster medium (ICM) that can provide sufficient heating on larger scales. It is argued that weak shocks and sound dissipation are the main means by which radio AGN heat the ICM, in which case, the power spectrum of AGN outbursts plays a central role in AGN feedback.

description: We present observations of the full January 2010 transit of HD80606b from the Canadian microsatellite, Microvariability and Oscillations of Stars (MOST). By employing a space-based telescope, we monitor the entire transit thus limiting systematic errors that result from ground observations. We determine measurements for the planetary radius (R_{p}=0.987\pm0.061R_{Jup}) and inclination (i=89.283^{o}\pm0.024) by constraining our fits with the observed parameters of different groups. Our measured mid-transit time of 2455210.6449\pm0.0034 HJD is consistant with the 2010 Spitzer results and is 20 minutes earlier than predicted by groups who observed the June 2009 transit.

description: We present an implementation of localized atomic orbital basis sets in the projector augmented wave (PAW) formalism within the density functional theory (DFT). The implementation in the real-space GPAW code provides a complementary basis set to the accurate but computationally more demanding grid representation. The possibility to switch seamlessly between the two representations implies that simulations employing the local basis can be fine tuned at the end of the calculation by switching to the grid, thereby combining the strength of the two representations for optimal performance. The implementation is tested by calculating atomization energies and equilibrium bulk properties of a variety of molecules and solids, comparing to the grid results. Finally, it is demonstrated how a grid-quality structure optimization can be performed with significantly reduced computational effort by switching between the grid and basis representations.

description: Nowadays, the worlds scientific community has been publishing an enormous number of papers in different scientific fields. In such environment, it is essential to know which databases are equally efficient and objective for literature searches. It seems that two most extensive databases are Web of Science and Scopus. Besides searching the literature, these two databases used to rank journals in terms of their productivity and the total citations received to indicate the journals impact, prestige or influence. This article attempts to provide a comprehensive comparison of these databases to answer frequent questions which researchers ask, such as: How Web of Science and Scopus are different? In which aspects these two databases are similar? Or, if the researchers are forced to choose one of them, which one should they prefer? For answering these questions, these two databases will be compared based on their qualitative and quantitative characteristics.

description: We use different numerical approaches to calculate the double occupancy and mag- netic susceptibility as a function of a bias voltage in an Anderson impurity model. Specifically, we compare results from the Matsubara-voltage quantum Monte-Carlo approach (MV-QMC), the scattering-states numerical renormalization group (SNRG), and real-time quantum Monte-Carlo (RT-QMC), covering Coulomb repulsions ranging from the weak-coupling well into the strong- coupling regime. We observe a distinctly different behavior of the double occupancy and the magnetic response. The former measures charge fluctuations and thus only indirectly exhibits the Kondo scale, while the latter exhibits structures on the scale of the equilibrium Kondo tempera- ture. The Matsubara-voltage approach and the scattering-states numerical renormalization group yield consistent values for the magnetic susceptibility in the Kondo limit. On the other hand, all three numerical methods produce different results for the behavior of charge fluctuations in strongly interacting dots out of equilibrium.

description: This study aims to determine the research mapping regarding the Financial Value Added (FVA) ratio in Islamic and Conventional Banking using a mix-method approach, namely the VOSviewer bibliometric study and Library Research. Data analysis techniques include: (1) mapping the distribution of journal publications around the FVA ratio; (2) mapping the results of the VOSviewer bibliometric visualization around the FVA ratio based on the number of clusters and their items; and (3) mapping research topics around the FVA ratio using a Library Research study. The results showed that: (1) based on the distribution of journal publications, there were 25 journal publications regarding the FVA ratio; (2) based on the mapping of the VOSviewer bibliometric study, the network visualization results around the FVA ratio are divided into 4 clusters and 82 topic items; (3) based on the mapping of Library Research studies, there are 2 topics around the influence of the FVA ratio and 2 topics about the determinants of the FVA ratio. The implications and contributions of this research are to map research topics around FVA ratios in Islamic and Conventional Banking which are often or rarely researched by researchers so that they can be a reference for subsequent researchers.

description: We present a new classification method for quasar identification in the EROS-2 and MACHO datasets based on a boosted version of Random Forest classifier. We use a set of variability features including parameters of a continuous auto regressive model. We prove that continuous auto regressive parameters are very important discriminators in the classification process. We create two training sets (one for EROS-2 and one for MACHO datasets) using known quasars found in the LMC. Our model's accuracy in both EROS-2 and MACHO training sets is about 90% precision and 86% recall, improving the state of the art models accuracy in quasar detection. We apply the model on the complete, including 28 million objects, EROS-2 and MACHO LMC datasets, finding 1160 and 2551 candidates respectively. To further validate our list of candidates, we crossmatched our list with a previous 663 known strong candidates, getting 74% of matches for MACHO and 40% in EROS-2. The main difference on matching level is because EROS-2 is a slightly shallower survey which translates to significantly lower signal-to-noise ratio lightcurves.

description: We show that for any $λ\in \mathbb{C}$ with $|λ|<1$ there exists an analytic expanding circle map such that the eigenvalues of the associated transfer operator (acting on holomorphic functions) are precisely the nonnegative powers of $λ$ and $\barλ$. As a consequence we obtain a counterexample to a variant of a conjecture of Mayer on the reality of spectra of transfer operators.

description: For the logarithmically singular parabolic equation \[ u_t-Δ\ln u=0\qquad\text{weakly in}\ \ E\times(0,T], \] we establish a Harnack type estimate in the $L^1_{loc}$ topology, and we show that the solutions are locally analytic in the space variables and differentiable in time. The main assumption is that $\ln u$ possesses a sufficiently high degree of integrability, namely \begin{equation*} \ln u\in L^\infty_{loc}\big(0,T;L^p_{loc}(E)\big) \quad\text{for some} p\ge1. \end{equation*} These two properties are known for solutions of singular porous medium type equations ($0
