description: Using turn signals to convey a driver’s intention to change lanes provides a direct and unambiguous way of communicating with nearby drivers. Nonetheless, past research has indicated that drivers may not always use their turn signals before starting a lane change. In this study, realistic driving data are analyzed to investigate turn signal usage during lane changes on highways in and around Gothenburg, Sweden. Turn signal usage is examined and factors that influence it are identified by employing Bayesian hierarchical modelling. The study found that drivers used their turn signal before changing lanes in 60% of cases, after starting the lane change in 33% of cases, and did not use it at all in 7% of cases. The Bayesian hierarchical modelling results indicate that various factors, such as the speed and direction of lane changes and the presence of surrounding vehicles, influence the usage of turn signals. The study concludes that understanding the factors affecting turn signal usage is crucial for improving traffic safety in current and future mixed traffic with autonomous vehicles. The study discusses the implications of findings concerning increasing turn signal compliance through general policy-making, improving existing in-vehicle technologies and including turn signal usage in Pay-As-You-Drive insurances.

description: Глобальные логистические цепи столкнулись с трудностями при введении инновационных технологий, влияющих на современные методы производства и способы оплаты в эпоху Индустрии 4.0, которая будет разрастаться и перейдёт в область геокосмических перевозок. Исследование, проведённое Deloitte в 2018 г., позволило сделать вывод, что новые технологии ведут к огромным изменениям и улучшениям в глобальной цепи поставок. Несмотря на то что многие инновации находятся на ранней стадии разработок и внедрения в экономически развитых и развивающихся странах, именно цифровые технологии окажут ускоряющее влияние на экономику (в ближайшем будущем ожидается их дальнейшая востребованность). Они также могут стать основой для формирования инновационных отраслей промышленности, которые перенесутся в космическое пространство, где не будут негативно сказываться на экологии. Цель статьи – проанализировать опыт современных специалистов-практиков по цепочкам поставок, чтобы определить текущий уровень внедрения ключевых технологий Индустрии 4.0 и сделать прогнозы относительно ожидаемого воздействия ИТ-сферы на процессы производства и уровень будущих инвестиций в данное направление, а также способы использования этих перспективных технологий в геокосмических перевозках.

description: Biofilms are known to be well-organized microbial communities embedded in an extracellular polymeric matrix, which supplies bacterial protection against external stressors. Biofilms are widespread and diverse, and despite the considerable large number of publications and efforts reported regarding composition, structure and cell-to-cell communication within biofilms in the last decades, the mechanisms of biofilm formation, the interaction and communication between bacteria are still not fully understood. This knowledge is required to understand why biofilms form and how we can combat them or how we can take advantage of these sessile communities, e.g. in biofuel cells. Therefore, in situ and real-time monitoring of nutrients, metabolites and quorum sensing molecules is of high importance, which may help to fill that knowledge gap. This review focuses on the potential of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) as a versatile method for in situ studies providing temporal and lateral resolution in order to elucidate cell-to-cell communication, microbial metabolism and antimicrobial impact, e.g. of antimicrobial coatings through the study of electrochemical active molecules. Given the complexity and diversity of biofilms, challenges and limitations will be also discussed.

description: The main object of this study was the investigation of the thermal recycling of commingled waste textile fibers, with the aim of the production of useful end products. DSC/TGA was applied to determine the thermal degradation characteristics of the commingled waste textile fibers and there are two peaks located at the temperature ranges of 299–360°C and 399–500°C. Commingled waste fiber was pyrolyzed in a nitrogen atmosphere in relation to three different temperatures (500, 600 and 700°C), heating rates (25 and 50°Cmin−1) and retention times (15 and 30 min). The effect of the experimental conditions such as pyrolysis temperature, heating rates and retention time on the formation of char and gas-liquid products were investigated and product yields were determined from the rate of the weight loss. The highest conversion rate 82.9 wt.% liquid-gas product and 17.1 wt.% char product was achieved at 700°C. Pyrolysis gases were taken for every 7, 15, 25 min and were analyzed for major component such as CO, CO2, CH4 and H2 by gas chromatography. The pyrolysis char called carbon black derived from the pyrolysis of commingled waste textile fibers were analyzed for a range of properties, including the elemental analysis, moisture content, ash content, calorific value and trace metal analysis.

description: On the basis of the kangaroo's pseudo-biped locomotion and its upright position, it could be assumed that the kangaroo might be an interesting model for spine research and that it may serve as a reasonable surrogate model for biomechanical in vitro tests. The purpose of this in vitro study was to provide biomechanical properties of the kangaroo spine and compare them with human spinal data from the literature. In addition, references to already published kangaroo anatomical spinal parameters will be discussed. Thirteen kangaroo spines from C4 to S4 were sectioned into single-motion segments. The specimens were tested by a spine tester under pure moments. The range of motion and neutral zone of each segment were determined in flexion and extension, right and left lateral bending and left and right axial rotation. Overall, we found greater flexibility in the kangaroo spine compared to the human spine. Similarities were only found in the cervical, lower thoracic and lumbar spinal regions. The range of motion of the kangaroo and human spines displayed comparable trends in the cervical (C4–C7), lower thoracic and lumbar regions independent of the motion plane. In the upper and middle thoracic regions, the flexibility of the kangaroo spine was considerably larger. These results suggested that the kangaroo specimens could be considered to be a surrogate, but only in particular cases, for biomechanical in vitro tests.

description: Ribosomal decoding is an essential process in every living cell. During protein synthesis the 30S ribosomal subunit needs to accomplish binding and accurate decoding of mRNAs. From mutational studies and high-resolution crystal structures nucleotides G530, A1492 and A1493 of the 16S rRNA came into focus as important elements for the decoding process. Recent crystallographic data challenged the so far accepted model for the decoding mechanism. To biochemically investigate decoding in greater detail we applied an in vitro reconstitution approach to modulate single chemical groups at A1492 and A1493. The modified ribosomes were subsequently tested for their ability to efficiently decode the mRNA. Unexpectedly, the ribosome was rather tolerant toward modifications of single groups either at the base or at the sugar moiety in terms of translation activity. Concerning translation fidelity, the elimination of single chemical groups involved in a hydrogen bonding network between the tRNA, mRNA and rRNA did not change the accuracy of the ribosome. These results indicate that the contribution of those chemical groups and the formed hydrogen bonds are not crucial for ribosomal decoding.

description: During the transition from parental care to independent life, the development of adequate foraging skills is a major challenge for many juvenile mammals. However, participating in their parents’ knowledge by applying social learning strategies might facilitate this task. For several mammals, communal foraging of adults and offspring is suggested to be an important mechanism in mediating foraging-related information. For the large mammalian taxon of bats, only little is known about foraging-related social learning processes during ontogeny. It is often suggested that following their mothers during foraging flights would represent a valuable option for juveniles to socially learn about foraging, e.g., where to find resource-rich foraging patches, but explicit tests are scarce. In the present study, we investigated the foraging behavior of juvenile flower-visiting bats (Glossophaga soricina) in a dry forest in Costa Rica. We tested whether recently volant, but still nursed pups perform foraging flights alone, or whether pups follow their mothers, which would enable pups to socially learn where to feed. For that, we trained mothers and pups to feed from artificial flowers with a RFID reading system and, subsequently, conducted a field experiment to test whether RFID-tagged mothers and pups visit these flowers communally or independently. Unexpectedly, pups often encountered and visited artificial flowers near the day roost, while mothers rarely did, suggesting that they foraged somewhere further away. Our results demonstrate that still nursed juveniles perform foraging flights apart from their mothers and might learn about the spatial distribution of food without participating in their mother’s knowledge, for instance, by following other conspecifics or applying individual learning strategies. An initial potential lack of foraging success in this period is likely compensated by the ongoing maternal provisioning with breast milk and regurgitated nectar during daytime. Our results contribute to the growing body of research on the ontogeny of mammalian foraging behavior in general.

description: Confinement of reaction spaces was achieved in a biomimetic manner by using liposome vesicles that are based on phospholipid bilayer membranes, similar to cellular compartments. Encapsulation of photosensitizer (PS) and substrate within the inner aqueous compartment of liposomes accelerated the photosensitized model reaction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) conversion to its oxidized form (NAD+) by one order of magnitude compared to classical homogeneous reaction conditions. Furthermore, it was found that the reaction proceeds around 40 % faster when the photosensitizer is dissolved in the inner aqueous compartment instead of being embedded within the phospholipid bilayer which is attributed to the diffusion behavior of singlet oxygen which acts as oxidant in this reaction. These experimental findings will allow for reaction and molecular systems design for photochemical and catalytic conversions and will be relevant in the context of creating artificial cellular compartments such as fully artificial chloroplasts.

description: Background
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) plays important roles in intestinal homeostasis, limiting tumour growth and promoting differentiation in the intestinal epithelium. Spineless, the Drosophila homolog of AHR, has only been studied in the context of development but not in the adult intestine.
Methods
The role of Spineless in the Drosophila midgut was studied by overexpression or inactivation of Spineless in infection and tumour models and RNA sequencing of sorted midgut progenitor cells.
Results
We show that spineless is upregulated in the adult intestinal epithelium after infection with Pseudomonas entomophila (P.e.). Spineless inactivation increased stem cell proliferation following infection-induced injury. Spineless overexpression limited intestinal stem cell proliferation and reduced survival after infection. In two tumour models, using either Notch RNAi or constitutively active Yorkie, Spineless suppressed tumour growth and doubled the lifespan of tumour-bearing flies. At the transcriptional level it reversed the gene expression changes induced in Yorkie tumours, counteracting cell proliferation and altered metabolism.
Conclusions
These findings demonstrate a new role for Spineless in the adult Drosophila midgut and highlight the evolutionarily conserved functions of AHR/Spineless in the control of proliferation and differentiation of the intestinal epithelium.

description: Large-scale data analysis problems have become increasingly common across many disciplines. While large volume of data offers more statistical power, it also brings computational challenges. The orthogonalizing expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm by Xiong et al. is an efficient method to deal with large-scale least-square problems from a design point of view. In this article, we propose a reformulation and generalization of the orthogonalizing EM algorithm. Computational complexity and convergence guarantees are established. The reformulation of the orthogonalizing EM algorithm leads to a reduction in computational complexity for least-square problems and penalized least-square problems. The reformulation, named the GOEM (generalized orthogonalizing EM) algorithm, can incorporate a wide variety of convex and nonconvex penalties, including the lasso, group lasso, and minimax concave penalty penalties. The GOEM algorithm is further extended to a wider class of models including generalized linear models and Cox's proportional hazards model. Synthetic and real data examples are included to illustrate its use and efficiency compared with standard techniques. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: Abstract Microgravity eases several constraints limiting experiments with ultracold and condensed atoms on ground. It enables extended times of flight without suspension and eliminates the gravitational sag for trapped atoms. These advantages motivated numerous initiatives to adapt and operate experimental setups on microgravity platforms. We describe the design of the payload, motivations for design choices, and capabilities of the Bose-Einstein Condensate and Cold Atom Laboratory (BECCAL), a NASA-DLR collaboration. BECCAL builds on the heritage of previous devices operated in microgravity, features rubidium and potassium, multiple options for magnetic and optical trapping, different methods for coherent manipulation, and will offer new perspectives for experiments on quantum optics, atom optics, and atom interferometry in the unique microgravity environment on board the International Space Station.

description: Passive sampling is one of the most efficient methods of monitoring pharmaceuticals in environmental water. The reliability of the process relies on a correctly performed calibration experiment and a well-defined sampling rate (Rs) for target analytes. Therefore, in this review the state-of-the-art methods of passive sampler calibration for the most popular pharmaceuticals: antibiotics, hormones, β-blockers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), along with the sampling rate variation, were presented. The advantages and difficulties in laboratory and field calibration were pointed out, according to the needs of control of the exact conditions. Sampling rate calculating equations and all the factors affecting the Rs value – temperature, flow, pH, salinity of the donor phase and biofouling – were discussed. Moreover, various calibration parameters gathered from the literature published in the last 16 years, including the device types, were tabled and compared. What is evident is that the sampling rate values for pharmaceuticals are impacted by several factors, whose influence is still unclear and unpredictable, while there is a big gap in experimental data. It appears that the calibration procedure needs to be improved, for example, there is a significant deficiency of PRCs (Performance Reference Compounds) for pharmaceuticals. One of the suggestions is to introduce correction factors for Rs values estimated in laboratory conditions.

description: Aims To conduct a pooled analysis to assess the performance of intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring (isCGM) in association with the rate of change in sensor glucose in a cohort of children, adolescents, and adults with type 1 diabetes. Material and Methods In this pooled analysis, isCGM system accuracy was assessed depending on the rate of change in sensor glucose. Clinical studies that have been investigating isCGM accuracy against blood glucose, accompanied with collection time points were included in this analysis. isCGM performance was assessed by means of median absolute relative difference (MedARD), Parkes error grid (PEG) and Bland-Altman plot analyses. Results Twelve studies comprising 311 participants were included, with a total of 15 837 paired measurements. The overall MedARD (interquartile range) was 12.7% (5.9-23.5) and MedARD differed significantly based on the rate of change in glucose (P < 0.001). An absolute difference of −22 mg/dL (−1.2 mmol/L) (95% limits of agreement [LoA] 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L), −103 mg/dL (−5.7 mmol/L)) was found when glucose was rapidly increasing (isCGM glucose minus reference blood glucose), while a −32 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) (95% LoA 116 mg/dL (6.4 mmol/L), −51 mg/dL (−2.8 mmol/L)) absolute difference was observed in periods of rapidly decreasing glucose. Conclusions The performance of isCGM was good when compared to reference blood glucose measurements. The rate of change in glucose for both increasing and decreasing glucose levels diminished isCGM performance, showing lower accuracy during high rates of glucose change.

description: With the motivation and the difficulties that currently exist in comprehending and utilizing the promising features of SNNs, we proposed a novel run-time multi-core architecture-based simulator called "RAVSim" (Runtime Analysis and Visualization Simulator), a cutting-edge SNN simulator, developed using LabVIEW and it is publicly available on their website as an official module. RAVSim is a runtime virtual simulation environment tool that enables the user to interact with the model, observe its behavior of output concentration, and modify the set of parametric values at any time while the simulation is in execution. Recently some popular tools have been presented, but we believe that none of the tools allow users to interact with the model simulation in run time.

description: Aims Since plants are compartmentalised organisms, failure of their hydraulic transport system could differ between organs. We test here whether xylem tissue of stems and roots differ in their drought-induced embolism resistance, and whether intact roots are equally resistant to embolism than root segments. Methods Embolism resistance of stem and root xylem was measured based on the pneumatic technique for Acer campestre, A. pseudoplatanus and Corylus avellana, comparing also intact roots and root segments of C. avellana. Moreover, we compared anatomical features such as interconduit pit membrane between roots and stems. Results We found a higher embolism resistance for roots than stems, although a significant difference was only found for A. pseudoplatanus. Interconduit pit membrane thickness was similar for both organs of the two Acer species, but pit membranes were thicker in roots than stems of C. avellana. Also, embolism resistance of an intact root network was similar to thick root segments for C. avellana. Conclusion Our observations show that root xylem is not more vulnerable to embolism than stem xylem, although more species need to be studied to test if this finding can be generalised. We also demonstrated that the pneumatic method can be applied to non-terminal plant samples.

description: Large-scale data analysis problems have become increasingly common across many disciplines. While large volume of data offers more statistical power, it also brings computational challenges. The orthogonalizing EM algorithm (Xiong et al. 2016) is an efficient method to deal with large-scale least squares problems from a design point of view. In this paper, we propose a reformulation and generalization of the orthogonalizing EM algorithm. Computational complexity and convergence guarantees are established. The reformulation of the orthogonalizing EM algorithm leads to a reduction in computational complexity for least squares problems and penalized least squares problems. The reformulation, named the GOEM (Generalized Orthogonalizing EM) algorithm, can incorporate a wide variety of convex and non-convex penalties, including the lasso, group lasso, and minimax concave penalty penalties. The GOEM algorithm is further extended to a wider class of models including generalized linear models and Cox's proportional hazards model. Synthetic and real data examples are included to illustrate its use and efficiency compared with standard techniques.

description: A coevolutionary perspective is adopted to understand the dynamics of exposure to mountain hazards in the European Alps. A spatially explicit, object-based temporal assessment of elements at risk to mountain hazards (river floods, torrential floods, and debris flows) in Austria and Switzerland is presented for the period from 1919 to 2012. The assessment is based on two different data sets: (1) hazard information adhering to legally binding land use planning restrictions and (2) information on building types combined from different national-level spatial data. We discuss these transdisciplinary dynamics and focus on economic, social, and institutional interdependencies and interactions between human and physical systems. Exposure changes in response to multiple drivers, including population growth and land use conflicts. The results show that whereas some regional assets are associated with a strong increase in exposure to hazards, others are characterized by a below-average level of exposure. The spatiotemporal results indicate relatively stable hot spots in the European Alps. These results coincide with the topography of the countries and with the respective range of economic activities and political settings. Furthermore, the differences between management approaches as a result of multiple institutional settings are discussed. A coevolutionary framework widens the explanatory power of multiple drivers to changes in exposure and risk and supports a shift from structural, security-based policies toward an integrated, risk-based natural hazard management system.

description: Для запуска общепланетарного транспортного средства (ОТС) с поверхности Земли необходима взлётно-посадочная площадка, которой должна послужить экваториальная эстакада. Для идеального старта важно, чтобы эстакада находилась на одном уровне на протяжении всей экваториальной линии. Однако, как и при прокладке любых глобальных транспортных магистралей, на пути её возведения могут встречаться горы, впадины и целые океаны. Следовательно, требуется построить оптимальную траекторию для преодоления всех неровностей земной поверхности с учётом характеристик ОТС, что и разбирается в данной статье.

description: Abstract Aims/hypothesis The aim of this work was to evaluate geographical variability and trends in the prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), between 2006 and 2016, at the diagnosis of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes in 13 countries over three continents. Methods An international retrospective study on DKA at diagnosis of diabetes was conducted. Data on age, sex, date of diabetes diagnosis, ethnic minority status and presence of DKA at diabetes onset were obtained from Australia, Austria, Czechia, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Norway, Slovenia, Sweden, USA and the UK (Wales). Mean prevalence was estimated for the entire period, both overall and by country, adjusted for sex and age group. Temporal trends in annual prevalence of DKA were estimated using logistic regression analysis for each country, before and after adjustment for sex, age group and ethnic minority status. Results During the study period, new-onset type 1 diabetes was diagnosed in 59,000 children (median age [interquartile range], 9.0 years [5.5–11.7]; male sex, 52.9%). The overall adjusted DKA prevalence was 29.9%, with the lowest prevalence in Sweden and Denmark and the highest in Luxembourg and Italy. The adjusted DKA prevalence significantly increased over time in Australia, Germany and the USA while it decreased in Italy. Preschool children, adolescents and children from ethnic minority groups were at highest risk of DKA at diabetes diagnosis in most countries. A significantly higher risk was also found for females in Denmark, Germany and Slovenia. Conclusions/interpretation DKA prevalence at type 1 diabetes diagnosis varied considerably across countries, albeit it was generally high and showed a slight increase between 2006 and 2016. Increased awareness of symptoms to prevent delay in diagnosis is warranted, especially in preschool children, adolescents and children from ethnic minority groups.

description: Создание замкнутой экосистемы подразумевает сложную и высокоорганизованную конфигурацию её элементов. Процессы, происходящие в ней, должны быть саморегулируемыми, а также самовозобновляемыми. В основе такой искусственно созданной системы – переход энергии, живого вещества и информации от одних организмов к другим. Адаптация в закрытых экосистемах является базисом существования всей системы. Следовательно, необходимо соблюсти условия развития организмов. В статье изучаются важные аспекты адаптивных процессов популяций при размещении их в закрытой экосистеме.

description: Разработка «космического» почвогрунта обусловлена необходимостью его использования в ЭкоКосмоДоме (ЭКД) многометровым слоем для защиты от метеоритов и в то же время для снижения общей массы плодородного пласта, что удешевит его доставку на орбиту. Предложены варианты почвогрунта, обладающие повышенной ударной вязкостью и уменьшенным весом по сравнению с обычной почвой. Запланированы эксперименты по изучению влияния созданного почвогрунта на растения. Обоснована возможность включения в состав почвогрунта, предназначенного для применения в ЭКД, недорогих и экологичных материалов.
