Applied Fluid Therapy in Bovine Practice
Creators: name: Bucholtz, David C.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1982

description: The physiologic value of fluid therapy has been well documented. However, the practical application of fluid treatment under field conditions leaves most bovine practitioners raising skeptical eyebrows. My purpose, in this presentation, is to peel the "ivory tower" label from fluid therapeutics, and re-tag it as a useful and cost effective addition to daily bovine practice.

description: Long short-term volume forecasting is essential for companies regarding their logistics service operations. It is crucial for logistic companies to predict the volumes of goods that will be delivered to various centers at any given day, as this will assist in managing the efficiency of their business operations. This research aims to create a forecasting model for outbound logistics volumes by utilizing design science research methodology in building 3 machine-learning models and evaluating the performance of the models . The dataset is provided by Tetra Pak AB, the World's leading food processing and packaging solutions company,. Research methods were mainly quantitative, based on statistical data and numerical calculations. Three algorithms were implemented: which are encoder–decoder networks based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (ConvLSTM), and Convolutional Neural Network Long ShortTerm Memory (CNN-LSTM). Comparisons are made with the average Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for six distribution centers (DC) of Tetra Pak. Results obtained from encoder–decoder networks based on LSTM are compared to results obtained by encoder–decoder networks based on ConvLSTM and CNN-LSTM. The three algorithms performed very well, considering the loss of the Train and Test with our multivariate time series dataset. However, based on the average score of the RMSE, there are slight differences between algorithms for all DCs.

The HR function in Australia : supports and barriers to strategic HRM integration
Creators: name: Sheehan, C
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The transition from personnel management to Human Resource Management (HRM) has activated considerable discussion and debate within the academic literature about the strategic positioning of, and responsibility for, HRM activity (Beer, 1997; Dyer & Holder, 1988; Guest 1987; 1989). Specifically, effective HRM integration involves active HR representation in strategic decision-making processes, HR policies that cohere and the acceptance of HRM responsibilities by line managers and employees as part of their everyday life (Schuler, 1992). Despite the evidence that there has been some shift towards this goal, there is good reason to believe that the HR function is yet to make the full transition from administrator to strategic partner (Johnson, 2000; Kochan & Dyer, 2001; Storey, 2001;). In an environment where core competencies and competitive advantage are being increasingly linked to effective HRM activity (Boxall & Purcell, 2000), it is critical that barriers to the full realisation of HRM integration be understood and investigated. The two broad aims of this thesis are to analyse the status, and processes underlying, strategic HRM integration in Australian organisations and to contribute to the theory development in strategic human resource management (SHRM). First, the analysis of strategic HRM integration involved an initial large-scale survey of the membership of the Australian Human Resource Institute (AHRI). The results of the survey revealed that senior HR managers were supportive of strategic FIRM initiatives. Using a more qualitative approach, follow-up in-depth interviews with senior HR, finance and line managers in 13 case organisations helped to clarify the variables that impact on the success or otherwise of FIRM integration. Results revealed that although it may be important that senior HR managers agree with strategic FIRM initiatives and that organisational structures are put in place to facilitate strategic HRM integration, unless there are deeper shifts in levels of strategic HRM commitment by HR managers and other senior business executives, the transition to strategic HRM integration may not be successful. The second broad aim of the thesis, theory development, draws from the thesis results. Using ideas from the change literature, a model is developed of the proposed influences on strategic HRM integration. The argument supporting the model is that the decision to implement a strategic FIRM approach requires a certain set of symbolic gestures and ritualistic changes. These symbolic changes, however, do not always necessarily result in desired outcomes: symbolic adjustments must be accompanied by deeper levels of change. The research holds a number of practical implications for HR professionals and senior business executives.

description: Via a combination of various experimental and theoretical techniques, a peculiar, identical temperature scale T* is found to exist in all complex lead-based relaxor ferroelectrics. T* corresponds to a nanoscale phase transition due to random fields. Interestingly, T* also exists in other oxides with extraordinary properties, such as giant magnetoresistivity or superconductivity. By analogy with such latter systems, the giant piezoelectricity related to relaxors might originate from proximity competing states effect.

Formation and Drainage of Glacier Dammed Dań Zhùr (Donjek) Lake, Yukon

description: Dań Zhùr (Donjek) Glacier, located in the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon, is a surge-type glacier that undergoes cyclical periods of rapid advance over a period of ~1-2 years, followed by retreat for a period of ~10 years (Kochtitzky et al., 2019). Dań Zhùr Chù’ (Donjek River) runs perpendicular to the terminus of the glacier and past surges have, at times, caused the terminus to advance enough to block the river, leading to the formation of an ice-dammed lake (Kochtitzky et al., 2020). The glacier most recently surged between 2012 and 2014, and since then Dań Zhùr Lake has drained three times: in 2017, 2018 and 2019. When a glacier dam fails, the drainage of the lake can be catastrophic and cause flooding downstream. In the case of Dań Zhùr Lake, the most recent drainage event occurred on July 13th, 2019, when the ~2.45 km2 lake drained in less than 36 hours and created an ice canyon through the glacier terminus. Time-lapse cameras and pressure sensors were used to capture the drainage event, and air photos taken during the melt season (June and September) were used to construct digital elevation models (DEMs) of the glacier terminus, lake, and lake basin. The method of drainage for the 2019 event was determined to be flotation of the terminus, leading to rapid subglacial drainage of the lake. There were also noticeable changes in water extent downstream during the 2019 event, meaning that there is a potential risk to downstream recreational users. Because of the formation of a large ice canyon after the 2019 drainage, it is very unlikely that that the lake will reform until the next surge, which is anticipated to occur around 2024. Following that surge, the size of Dań Zhùr Lake is expected to increase during the next quiescent phase, as the continued glacier recession will expose a larger basin for the lake to form in, and flotation will continue to be a likely mechanism for drainage. However, in the long term it is unlikely that ice-dammed lakes will continue to form at Dań Zhùr Glacier, as there is a trend of the maximum terminus extent during each surge being smaller than the previous one, meaning that the glacier will no longer block the flow of Dań Zhùr Chù’.

description: Prolapsed vagina is a problem for all of us involved in large animal practice. Our treatment procedures are probably not much difference than anyone else. We treat most of these cases in our haul-in facility at the clinic. Our facilities are not elaborate, but functional, allowing us to do about 75 % of our large animal work at the clinic. I feel this is about the only way a mixed practice can survive continuing to do large animal work.

Hairball Surgery In Calves

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1982

description: In Montana beef herds we occassionally see an unthrifty condition develop in one-to four-week old calves as a result of pyloric obstruction by masses of ingested hair and other foreign materials. These calves are often passed over as being "poor doers'' and the condition goes undiagnosed and untreated more often than not. It isn't until a rancher has a small epidemic of these calves that he will think anything of it. Some will be dragged off to a gully with the rancher shrugging it off as a normal loss of a calf that "ain't never been quite right". Others will linger on and continue to be "poor doers" that eventually outgrow the problem. In either case the calf is unprofitable at best and often a total loss.

It is shown that arbitrary-spin gauge field in (anti)-de Sitter space, massless or partially-massless, can be described by a single connection. A 'one-to-one' correspondence between the connections of the (anti)-de Sitter algebra and the gauge fields is established. The gauge symmetry is manifest and auxiliary fields are automatically included in the formalism.

description: Tracheal collapse is a condition that has been infrequently reported in cattle but has been well recognized in horses and in coy breeds of dogs. Animals affected with this condition have a tracheal lumen which is reduced in diameter because of a change in the normal architecture in the tracheal rings. Three cases of tracheal collapse were observed at Kansas State University ranging in age from two weeks to four months with the following breeds being involved: Simmental, Limousine, and Maine-Anjou Shorthorn Cross. All calves had exhibited clinical signs of respirarory difficulty shortly following birth, and the condition was unresponsive co antibiotic therapy, other respirarory supportive drugs, and a tracheoromy.

description: In a trial to determine the effect of zeranol implants on weight gains from birth to 180 days of age, 269 male Holstein calves were assigned randomly to one of three groups: a) 56 intact calves, b) 106 castrated calves implanted at birth and again at 90 days with 36 mg zeranol, and c) 107 castrated controls. All calves were weighed at 0, 28, 56, 90, and 180 days of age. Zeranol implanted steers averaged 9.2% greater average daily gain at 90 days and 9. 5% greater at the end of the trial than control steers. Intact male calves' weight gains were intermediate between the two steer groups. There was no correlation between implant status, total protein of blood serum, mortality, birth weight, or parity of the dam. During the first 180 days of age, implanting Holstein calves with zeranol at birth and repeated at 90 days can return upwards of $14.89 per dollar invested. (Key words: Zeranol, dairy beef, total serum protein, colostrum, mortality, weight gain.)

description: There has been an increasingly severe clinical problem with paratuberculosis for several purebred beef breeders who are clients of the Field Service Section, Department of Clinical Veterinary Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Illinois. Several approaches have been made to estimate the significance of the disease and its impact on both management and health status of these herds. Preliminary studies to assess the significance of paratuberculosis in Illinois in herds without previous history of clinical J ohne' s disease indicated one third (5 / 15 ) had one or more cows shedding the causative organism. Based on this finding, a statistically designed random sampling study was begun to assess the extent of the disease in Illinois cattle herds. Partial results at this time indicate approximately 31 % of Illinois herds sampled have one or more cows shedding Mycobacterium paratuberculosis.

Year: 1982

description: Recent investigations by researchers at the University of Idaho Department of Veterinary Science have revealed extremely low tissue selenium levels in cattle maintained on forage grown on selenium deficient areas in Idaho and Washington. Significant elevations of tissue selenium were evident 60 days following initiation of selenium supplementation using levels of 50 ppm and 90 ppm. Very little or no response was seen at levels of 20 ppm. Calves from dams that had access to a 90-ppm selenium-salt mix were blood sampled within three days of birth and found to have adequate tissue selenium levels, suggesting that in the bovine animal, significant placental transfer occurs.

description: This paper paraphrases from this author's perspective some of the derivations of

Andre-Marie Ampere relating to formulation of what became known as "Ampere's Force Law".

It is compared to Neumann's Force Law and it is shown that both are equivalent in force

predictions between parallel wires, but not for collinear (in-line) wire segments. Ampere's Force Law

predicts a repelling force for collinear wire segments; Neumann's Force Law predicts an attractive

force, not in agreement with the interpretation of observations by Ampere and other investigators.
State Transitions in Bright Galactic X-ray Binaries: Luminosities Span by Two Orders of Magnitude

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: Using X-ray monitoring observations with the ASM on board the RXTE and the BAT on board the Swift, we are able to study the spectral state transitions occurred in about 20 bright persistent and transient black hole and neutron star binaries. We have confirmed that there is a correlation between the X-ray luminosity corresponding to the hard-to-soft transition and the X-ray luminosity of the following soft state. This correlation holds over a luminosity range spanning by two orders of magnitude, with no indication of a flux saturation or cut-off. We have also found that the transition luminosity correlates with the rate of increase in the X-ray luminosity during the rising phase of an outburst or flare, implying that the origin of the variation of the transition luminosity is associated with non-stationary accretion in both transient sources and persistent sources. The correlation between the luminosity corresponding to the end of the soft-to-hard transition and the peak luminosity of the preceding soft state is found insignificant. The results suggest that the hysteresis effect of spectral state transitions is primarily driven by non-stationary accretion when the mass accretion rate increases rather than the mass accretion rate decreases. Our results also imply that Galactic X-ray binaries can reach more luminous hard states during outbursts of higher luminosities and of similar rise time scales as those observed. Based on the correlations, we speculate that bright hard state beyond the Eddington luminosity will be observed in Galactic binaries in the next century. We also suggest that some ultra-luminous X-ray sources in nearby galaxies, which stay in the hard states during bright, short flares, harbor stellar-mass compact stars.

Twenty-nine other dairy cows (controls) were treated in a similar manner but saline was injected rather than GnRH or PGF2 alpha. Blood samples were taken for progresterone analysis before each injection and approximately 30 hours after the PGF2 alpha or second saline injection. The reproductive tract was evaluated by rectal palpation at the time of each injection. Only cows without obvious uterine infection were used and any pathological conditions that developed subsequently were treated after the experimental period. The cows were inseminated at the first estrus after 135-40 days postpartum.

description: This experiment was an attempt to provide additional information on the nutritional etiopathogenesis of abomasal displacement in cattle and stimulate more attention to the prepartum and early postpartum feeding of cattle to prevent abomasal displacement. The objectives of this study were: ( 1) to determine the effect of various rations on abomasal electromyographic activity, contractile strength and intraluminal pressure changes and ( 2) to determine the relationship of rumen volatile fatty acid (VFA) concentration and abomasal VF A concentration to abomasal motility. Contrary to Swenson's findings we did not see an increase in abomasal contractions during a corn silage diet, neither on grass diet. We can therefore seriously question the theory that cows on an increased concentrate diet have decreased abomasal motility which predisposes them to abomasal displacement.

description: Each of three cows fitted with a rumen cannula were maintained on a constant diet for two weeks prior to the experiment. Each cow was given 4, 8 and 16 mg/ kg cimetidine and probantheline bromide to determine the effects of these drugs on acid secretion. Samples were aspirated every 30 minutes from the abomasum and rumen for one hour prior to receiving the drug and for 5 ½ hours after the treatment. The pH measurements were completed in duplicate on a Model 5 Corning pH Meter. The samples were also analyzed for chloride concentration. Neither probanthelirie nor cimetidine had any significant effect on abomasal pH, suggesting neither drug would be of value in treating abomasal ulcers.

General microscopic expressions for the FE coefficients are obtained in the case of the uniaxial and biaxial nematic phases composed of C_2v molecules. The expressions involve the one-particle distribution function and the potential energy of two-body short-range interactions. In the case of the biaxial nematic phase, six basic deformations produce FE polarization but there are only five independent FE coefficients.

Oxytetracycline Levels in Healthy and Diseased Calves

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1982

description: This project was designed to investigate the effects of disease on the tissue concentrations, serum concentrations, and pharmacokinetics of oxytetracycline (OTC) in pneumonic calves. In reviewing the results of this study it is apparent that there was a poor correlation between serum concentrations and tissue concentrations at 24 hours at this dose (Table I). If the tissue:serum concentration ratios are examined, it is obvious that the serum concentrations were poor predictors of tissue concentrations at this time. The tissue levels varied from 2 to IO times greater than the concurrent serum concentration. If the ratios for the diseased lung are compared to those of the healthy lung it can be seen that the serum concentrations as predictors of tissue concentrations was even more variable in diseased animals. The 24 hour tissue concentrations were considerably higher (2. 96 times) than the 24 hour serum concentrations. This raises a question regarding redosing of OTC at 12 or 24 hours based on declining serum concentrations.

description: Ram pressure stripping of the multiphase ISM is studied in the perturbed Virgo cluster spiral galaxy NGC 4438. This galaxy underwent a tidal interaction ~100 Myr ago and is now strongly affected by ram pressure stripping. Deep VLA radio continuum observations at 6 and 20 cm are presented. We detect prominent extraplanar emission to the west of the galactic center, which extends twice as far as the other tracers of extraplanar material. The spectral index of the extraplanar emission does not steepen with increasing distance from the galaxy. This implies in situ re-acceleration of relativistic electrons. The comparison with multiwavelength observations shows that the magnetic field and the warm ionized interstellar medium traced by Halpha emission are closely linked. The kinematics of the northern extraplanar Halpha emission, which is ascribed to star formation, follow those of the extraplanar CO emission. In the western and southern extraplanar regions, the Halpha measured velocities are greater than those of the CO lines. We suggest that the ionized gas of this region is excited by ram pressure. The spatial and velocity offsets are consistent with a scenario where the diffuse ionized gas is more efficiently pushed by ram pressure stripping than the neutral gas. We suggest that the recently found radio-deficient regions compared to 24 mum emission are due to this difference in stripping efficiency.

description: Purpose: Telehealth services experienced exponential growth during the COVID-19 pandemic. This survey examined the resulting evolution in the technology, connectivity, implementation of services, and attitudes of pediatric speech-language pathology clinicians using synchronous videoconferencing. Method: The Telehealth Services: Pediatric Provider Survey participants were 259 speech-language clinicians in a variety of employment settings from across the country and abroad. Analyses identified telehealth barriers eliminated and those that persisted during the pandemic, advantages, and disadvantages of remote delivery of evaluation and treatment services, the most common telehealth technology used by clinicians and their clients to access care, and clinicians’ predictions about the optimization and future of telehealth.Results: Elimination of regulatory and insurance hurdles allowed children from varying socioeconomic backgrounds living in rural, suburban, and urban areas access to telehealth. Telehealth technology shifted from computers with external hardware and specialized software to commercially available equipment, such as handheld portable devices with built-in audiovisual components and publicly available videoconferencing platforms. However, connectivity of these devices continued to be problematic, and lack of technology prevented some children from accessing care. Judgments about the appropriateness and effectiveness of evaluations and treatments varied based on the age and communication disorder of a child. Although some participants expressed uncertainty about the effectiveness of telehealth compared with in-person care, telehealth was widely recognized as a viable delivery method.Conclusions: Although clinicians reported many advantages of telehealth, some barriers identified reported prior to COVID-19 still persist. Clinicians anticipate that new developments have the potential to continue improving telehealth service delivery, bolstering the viability of telehealth long after the COVID-19 pandemic is gone.

description: To investigate Majorana fermionic excitations of a $p_x+ip_y$ superconductor, the Bogoliubov-de-Gennes equation is solved on a sphere for two cases: (i) a vortex-antivortex pair at opposite poles and (ii) an edge near the south pole and an antivortex at the north pole. The vortex cores support a state of two Majorana fermions, the energy of which decreases exponentially with the radius of the sphere, independently of a moderate disorder potential. The tunneling conductance of an electron into the superconductor near the position of a vortex is computed for finite temperature, and is compared to the case of an {\it s}-wave superconductor. The zero bias conductance peak of the antivortex is half that of the vortex. This effect can be used as a probe of the order parameter symmetry, and as a direct measurement of the Majorana fermion.

Diagnosis of Trichomoniasis

description: Trichomoniasis is a venereal disease of cattle characterized by infertility, early embryonic death and occasionally by pyometra and abortion. The etiological agent is a protozoan, Tritnchomonas fetus (T. fetus). Diagnosis of trichomonad pyometra by rectal palpation is a method not emphasized enough by most articles or text books. A skilled palpator will find this indeed a highly accurate method. Direct examination of the protozoan from an aborted fetus, or the pus from a pyometra, as well as culture in Diamonds media from preputial smegma of the bull or cervicovaginal mucus of infected cows is accurate in obtaining a diagnosis. Perhaps the disease shouldPerhaps the disease should be of reportable status because many infected cattle are sold through auction, or private treaty, only to spread the disease to other herds.

Bovine Rumensin Toxicity

description: In reviewing the epidemiological findings on this case of monensin toxicity, it is postulated that the reason for the increased number of deaths occurring in the yearling heifer group, is a dose/weight relationship. The other factor involved is that this group of animals received the very last portion of liquid supplement at the bottom of the tank. The deaths in the yearling heifers were primarily in the larger, more aggressive heifers. This, of course, puts some question on the dose relationship but when viewing the total amount of feed bunk availability, the smaller heifers were not allowed to the first feeding which contained the toxic level of monensin. The other groups where death losses occured were in the two year old heifers with calves at side and the yearling steers. The yearling steers and cull cows running together again indicates a dose/weight relationship. Although the two year old heifers with calves at side were heavier, it is postulated there may be some relationship due to stress on this particular group of animals.

Parturition: A Mechanism Review
Creators: name: Putnam, Marshall R.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1982

description: The role of the practitioner in food animal practice involves the health care of individual animals as well as the management and care of herds or flocks. Health care of individual animals often affords the opportunity to assume a management role if the practitioner is alert and prepared. Practitioners should seek ways to increase their role in the management of food animal production as the cost of individual care is becoming prohibitive in all but a select few animals. An adequate understanding of the parturition process allows practitioners to properly train clients in parturition management to maximize production and minimize losses. There is enough good work concerning the effect of parturition on productivity to make substantiated recommendations aimed at increasing the producers' profitability.

Qubit-oscillator dynamics in the dispersive regime: analytical theory beyond rotating-wave approximation

description: We generalize the dispersive theory of the Jaynes-Cummings model beyond the frequently employed rotating-wave approximation (RWA) in the coupling between the two-level system and the resonator. For a detuning sufficiently larger than the qubit-oscillator coupling, we diagonalize the non-RWA Hamiltonian and discuss the differences to the known RWA results. Our results extend the regime in which dispersive qubit readout is possible. If several qubits are coupled to one resonator, an effective qubit-qubit interaction of Ising type emerges, whereas RWA leads to isotropic interaction. This impacts on the entanglement characteristics of the qubits.

description: A complete list of the so-called Lorentz invariance relations between parton distribution functions is given and some of their consequences are discussed, such as the Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule. The violation of these relations is considered in a model independent way. It is shown that several Lorentz invariance relations are not violated in a generalized Wandzura-Wilczek approximation, indicating that numerically their violation may be small.

description: We demonstrate electronic cooling of 1D phonon modes in suspended nanowires for the first time, using normal metal--insulator--superconductor (NIS) tunnel junctions. Simultaneous cooling of both electrons and phonons to a common temperature was achieved. In comparison with non-suspended devices, better cooling performance is achieved in the whole operating range of bath temperatures between 0.1-0.7 K. The observed low-temperature thermal transport characteristics are consistent with scattering of ballistic phonons at the nanowire-bulk contact as being the mechanism limiting thermal transport. At the lowest bath temperature of the experiment $\sim$ 100 mK, both phonons and electrons in the beam were cooled down to 42 mK, which is below the refrigerator bath temperature.

description: A common assumption in the existing network coding literature is that the users are cooperative and non-selfish. However, this assumption can be violated in practice. In this paper, we analyze inter-session network coding in a wired network using game theory. We assume selfish users acting strategically to maximize their own utility, leading to a resource allocation game among users. In particular, we study the well-known butterfly network topology where a bottleneck link is shared by several network coding and routing flows. We prove the existence of a Nash equilibrium for a wide range of utility functions. We show that the number of Nash equilibria can be large (even infinite) for certain choices of system parameters. This is in sharp contrast to a similar game setting with traditional packet forwarding where the Nash equilibrium is always unique. We then characterize the worst-case efficiency bounds, i.e., the Price-of-Anarchy (PoA), compared to an optimal and cooperative network design. We show that by using a novel discriminatory pricing scheme which charges encoded and forwarded packets differently, we can improve the PoA. However, regardless of the discriminatory pricing scheme being used, the PoA is still worse than for the case when network coding is not applied. This implies that, although inter-session network coding can improve performance compared to ordinary routing, it is significantly more sensitive to users' strategic behaviour. For example, in a butterfly network where the side links have zero cost, the efficiency can be as low as 25%. If the side links have non-zero cost, then the efficiency can further reduce to only 20%. These results generalize the well-known result of guaranteed 67% worst-case efficiency for traditional packet forwarding networks.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: A discussion is presented to illustrate the relationships among landform, soil, vegetation and water chemistry in the intermittent permafrost zone of the Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories. Two study areas were examined in this region, one in the vicinity of Wrigley and the other in the vicinity of Fort Simpson, N.W.T. A catenary sequence of soils and vegetation occurring as a transect on five distinctive landforms were examined in the Wrigley area. The transect extended from 1170 m above sea level downslope to 500 m above sea level. The five landforms were: an alpine meadow, an area of stone stripe and stone ring formation, a colluvial slope, a coalescing fan and an area of polygonal bog formation. Information on chemical water quality is presented for each of these areas for the parameters pH, O₂, Ca, Mg, Na, K, Cl, F and NO₃. Chemical water quality presented for the Fort Simpson study area allows for the differentiation of different types of organic terrain based on the dissolved load of the saturated organic materials. The polygonal bog landform initially examined in the Wrigley area formed one of the differentiated types of organic terrain. The results are discussed with reference to organic terrain morphology and the distribution of permafrost in the study area.
