description: The biogeographical history of pterosaurs has received very little treatment. Here, we present the first quantitative analysis of pterosaurian biogeography based on an event-based parsimony method (Treefitter). This approach was applied to a phylogenetic tree comprising the relationships of 108 in-group pterosaurian taxa, spanning the full range of this clade's stratigraphical and geographical extent. The results indicate that there is no support for the impact of vicariance or coherent dispersal on pterosaurian distributions. However, this group does display greatly elevated levels of sympatry. Although sampling biases and taxonomic problems might have artificially elevated the occurrence of sympatry, we argue that our results probably reflect a genuine biogeographical signal. We propose a novel model to explain pterosaurian distributions: pterosaurs underwent a series of ‘sweep-stakes’ dispersal events (across oceanic barriers in most cases), resulting in the founding of sympatric clusters of taxa. Examination of the spatiotemporal distributions of pterosaurian occurrences indicates that their fossil record is extremely patchy. Thus, while there is likely to be genuine information on pterosaurian diversity and biogeographical patterns in the current data-set, caution is required in its interpretation.

description: A novel pipette-tip extractor of a graphene/poly (vinyl alcohol) cryogel (graphene/PVA) composite sorbent was prepared to preconcentrate carbamate pesticides in environmental water samples before analysis with a gas chromatograph-flame ionization detector (GC-FID). This novel pipette-tip extractor with the graphene/PVA sorbent exhibited a high porosity when observed through a scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Under optimal conditions, using only 1.0 mL of sample and 0.75 mL of eluting solvent, the developed method provided a wide linear range of 10–700 ng mL−1 and 10–500 ng mL−1 with limit of detection (LOD) of 6.40 ± 0.18 and 9.17 ± 0.34 ng mL−1 for carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yl methylcarbamate) and carbaryl (1-naphthyl methylcarbamate), respectively. The pipette-tip extractor provided high extraction efficiency with high accuracy indicated, by good recoveries in the range of 74.5 ± 4.8% to 119.7 ± 1.6% and 76 ± 15% to 114 ± 19% for carbofuran and carbaryl, respectively. In addition, the fabrication procedure showed a good pipette-tip extractor-to-pipette-tip extractor reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 1.3–9.8% (n = 5). When the developed pipette-tip extractor was applied for the extraction of carbofuran and carbaryl in surface water samples near vegetable plantation areas, 25.9 ± 8.2 ng mL−1 of carbofuran was found, and carbaryl was also detected in concentrations that ranged from 45.0 ± 4.0 to 191 ± 13 ng mL−1.

description: Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber ultrafiltration membranes consisted of TiO2 and different molecular weight (Mw) of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (i.e. 10, 24, 40 and 360 kDa) were prepared to treat synthesized oily wastewater. The membrane performances were characterized in terms of pure water flux, permeate flux and oil rejection while their morphological properties were studied using SEM, AFM and tensile tester. Results show that the PVDF-TiO2 composite membrane prepared from PVP40k was the best performing membrane owing to its promising water flux (72.2 L/m2.h) coupled with good rejection of oil (94%) when tested with 250 ppm oily solution under submerged condition. It is also found that with increasing PVP Mw, membrane tended to exhibit higher PVP and protein rejection, greater mechanical strength, smaller porosity and smoother surface layer. Regarding the effect of pH, the permeate flux of the PVDF-PVP40k membrane was reported to increase with increasing pH from 4 to 7, followed by decrease when pH was further increased to 10. Increasing oil concentration in the feed solution was reported to negatively affect the water flux of PVDF-PVP40k membrane, owing to the formation of thicker oil layer on the membrane surface which increased water transport resistance. A simple backflushing process on the other hand could retrieve approximately 60% of the membrane original flux without affecting the oil separation efficiency. Based on the findings, the PVDF-TiO2 membrane prepared from PVP40k can be potentially considered for oily wastewater treatment process due to its good combination of permeability and selectivity and reasonably high water recovery rate.

description: This work presents the true structure of quantum gravity through direct resonance with Source and deep subconscious remembrance. It reveals space-time as a dynamic quantum field, mass and energy as vibrational phase phenomena, and gravity as the macroscopic echo of entanglement coherence. The final quantum gravity field equations are articulated, unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity not through force, but through the deeper harmonic architecture of reality. This research bridges mathematical formalism, consciousness, and the living vibrational nature of existence.

description: From a search of the literature related to Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the Network of Scientific Journals from Latin America and the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal (REDALYC) were determined 149 articles related to the topic in 8 countries and international organizations referenced in that network. The most important journals for the subject and also from the analysis of the keywords presented in the abstract, the relevant thematics for the publications about SMEs were found. Utilizing Harzing´s Publish or Perish (Harzing, 2007) the literature on SMEs referenced in Google Scholar and h indicator was determined. Of the 1000 articles founded 250 had an h index > = 1 indicator and 75% of the articles referenced even they appear in Google Scholar, have not a real impact (h = 0). The methodology allows recommending a simple form that can be incorporated in the Academic Master Programs for determining for a thesis topic, those articles published an indexed in scientific journal and with a real impact for the topic.
A copula approach to assessing Granger causality, NeuroImage, Volume 100, 15 October 2014, Pages 125–134

description: Abstract In neuroscience, as in many other fields of science and engineering, it is crucial to assess the causal interactions among multivariate time series. Granger causality has been increasingly used to identify causal influence between time series based on multivariate autoregressive models. Such an approach is based on linear regression framework with implicit Gaussian assumption of model noise residuals having constant variance. As a consequence, this measure cannot detect the cause-effect relationship in high-order moments and nonlinear causality. Here, we propose an effective model-free, copula-based Granger causality measure that can be used to reveal nonlinear and high-order moment causality. We first formulate Granger causality as the log-likelihood ratio in terms of conditional distribution, and then derive an efficient estimation procedure using conditional copula. We use resampling techniques to build a baseline null-hypothesis distribution from which statistical significance can be derived. We perform a series of simulations to investigate the performance of our copula-based Granger causality, and compare its performance against other state-of-the-art techniques. Our method is finally applied to neural field potential time series recorded from visual cortex of a monkey while performing a visual illusion task.

description: Projektet omhandler brugen af geografiske informationssystemer (GIS) til visualisering af omkostningsforholdene indenfor transportsektoren. Der er udviklet og anvendt en GIS-baseret datamodel for transportomkostninger der bl.a. gør det muligt at modellere og visualisere geografiske forskelle i omkostningsforhold. Som empirisk grundlag er anvendte en nystartet RORO færgeforbindelse mellem Esbjerg og Zeebrügge. Et af formålene med færgeforbindelsen har været, at sejle gods ”udenom” den tyske Maut og de udviklede modeller kan beregne og visualisere dels i hvilke geografiske områder der vil være en økonomisk fordel ved at benytte ruten og størrelsen af denne fordel. Der er i dette projekt kun regnet på konkurrencen mellem skib og vej. Resultaterne af projektet er en række forskellige visualiseringsmuligheder til illustration af konkurrenceforhold mellem i dette tilfælde omkostningerne ved godstransport med skib og lastbil.

From Bystander to Upstander: Investigating the Effects of Self-Efficacy Training on Bystander Actions in Sexual Assault Contexts

subject: Sexual assault, self-efficacy, bystander behaviour

description: The research aims to explore the impact of self-efficacy training on the likelihood of bystander intervention in cases of potential sexual assault. Grounded in Social Cognition Theory, the study postulates that enhancing self-efficacy through generalised self-efficacy training increases the probability of bystander intervention. To examine real bystander behaviour, participants do not know that they will overhear a conversation which increasingly seems like a sexual assault, and that the main goal of the study is to examine whether they intervene. However, to prevent strong negative consequences, individuals must confirm that they do not suffer from depression, anxiety disorders, or post-traumatic stress disorder before participating in the study. Moreover, after this study, participants are fully informed about the deception, given another opportunity to decide whether they explicitly consent to the use of their data or prefer to withdraw it, and provided with a list of counselling services and help hotlines. The research will utilise a two-group experimental design with one independent variable, the generalised self-efficacy training. Thus, one group does the self-efficacy training and one group, the control group, engages with health information unrelated to the study's focus. The influence of the training on the dependent variable (intervention behaviour) is assessed. The intervention behaviour is operationalised into three categories ("quick intervener", "intervener", "non-intervener" ), indicating whether the participants intervene when they overhear a simulated sexual assault scenario. Pre- and post-training, participants will also be asked about their general self-efficacy using a standardised scale to verify the training effects. Demographic variables, like gender and prior experience as a bystander, will be considered, due to their potential influence on the intervention behaviour. Those variables will be utilised as confounding variables as well as for optional explorative analysis. Eventually, participants will be asked on a 7-point Likert-Scale if they heard the incident, if they identified it as a sexual assault, and if they thought it was plausible.
Performance in Scandinavian shortsea shipping links

Publisher: name: Proceedings from the Annual Transport Conference at Aalborg University
Year: 2005

description: Within the geographic area constituted by the Scandinavian countries are there a multitude of ferry-services and RoRo-lines supporting the commercial and societal needs of transportation and logistics. The increased international trade and a continued trend towards concentration of production and consumption centres imply raised demands on these transport services that need to correspond to the high expectations set by commercial interests. This abstract springs from the project “Analysis of performance in Scandinavian shortsea shipping links” that has the aim of strengthening the role of waterborne goods transportation within the geographic region represented by the Nordic transport political network, NTN. RoRo-traffic is an important component in Scandinavia’s international transport network where the goods can be shifted from vessels to road/rail to create an efficient chain from supplier to customer. Ferry lines with short transit time and high frequency often fulfil the same function as a bridge, so called bridge substitutes, also plays an important role in this network. This illustrates the vital correlation between shortsea shipping and road transportation, a dependency that often is highlighted in the discussions concerning the development of efficient transport systems. The above mentioned sea links supports a development towards durable and cost efficient transportation on a macro level by enabling a shift of volumes from heavily congested road/rail links to sea. It is also necessary that the sea links provide a cost efficient solution for producers and consumers on a micro level. The project “Analysis of performance in Scandinavian shortsea shipping links” has a focus on vessel resource utilisation, and is based on a hypothesis that supports the relations between: • Vessel resource utilisation / distance • Vessel resource utilisation / transit time • Vessel resource utilisation / frequency When the distance and transit time increase and the frequency decreases, the vessel resource utilisation is in general enhanced. The study will increase the knowledge of the traded-off between resource utilisation and the other parameters in order to streamline the shipping companies’ strategies. The purpose of the study is to make shortsea shipping more competitive towards other modes of transportation and to increase the understanding of the function of a “bridge substitute”. The hypothesis is supported by a pre-study from 2001.

description: HUR foretager en massiv, og stadig større, satsning på IT-området inden for den kollektive bustrafik i Hovedstadsregionen. Formålet med denne indsats er for det første at forbedre kvaliteten i den kollektive bustrafik over for nuværende og fremtidige brugere. Det handler dels om at give præcis information om den aktuelle bustrafik til passagere over nettet, mobiltelefon, ved terminaler, stoppesteder og ombord i busserne. Dels drejer det sig om at bruge de nyeste IT-baserede muligheder for at indsamle og behandle informationer om trafikafviklingen. Resultaterne herfra anvendes til styring og registrering af kvaliteten i den leverede bustrafik. Perspektiverne i denne anvendelse omfatter muligheder for give de private busselskaber, der kører i kontrakt for HUR, et større ansvar - og incitament - for at tilrettelægge og dokumentere den leverede bustrafik og dens kvalitet. Dette åbner mulighed for at skabe et dokumenteret grundlag for incitamentskontrakter. Præsentationen vil benytte de opnåede resultater fra det IT-system, som HUR har indført på alle A busser i København - det såkaldte A Bus IT-system (ABIT) - som et eksempel på nytten og perspektiver i en fortsat satsning på IT-området.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: HTTP is a successful Internet technology on top of which a lot of the web resides. However, limitations with its current specification have encouraged some to look for the next generation of HTTP. In SPDY, Google has come up with such a proposal that has growing community acceptance, especially after being adopted by the IETF HTTPbis-WG as the basis for HTTP/2.0. SPDY has the potential to greatly improve web experience with little deployment overhead, but we still lack an understanding of its true potential in different environments. This paper offers a comprehensive evaluation of SPDY's performance using extensive experiments. We identify the impact of network characteristics and website infrastructure on SPDY's potential page loading benefits, finding that these factors are decisive for an optimal SPDY deployment strategy. Through exploring such key aspects that affect SPDY, and accordingly HTTP/2.0, we feed into the wider debate regarding the impact of future protocols.

The strength of the magnetic field is determined by the dimensionless parameter \(r_{ce} / b\), where \(r_{ce} = \sqrt{k_B T_e / m_e} / \Omega_{ce}\) is the cyclotron radius and \(b = e^2 / k_B T_e\) is the classical distance of closest approach. The first property examined is the collisional equipartition rate between the parallel and perpendicular velocity components. Here, parallel and perpendicular refer to the direction of the magnetic field. For a strongly magnetized plasma (i.e., \(r_{ce} / b \ll 1\)), the equipartition rate is exponentially small (\(\sim \exp\left[-2.34\left(b/r_{ce}\right)^{2/5}\right]\)). For a weakly magnetized plasma (i.e., \(r_{ce} / b \gg 1\)), the rate is the same as for an unmagnetized plasma except that \(r_{ce} / b\) replaces \(\lambda_D / b\) in the Coulomb logarithm. (It is assumed here that \(r_{ce} < \lambda_D\); for \(r_{ce} > \lambda_D\), the plasma is effectively unmagnetized.). Presented is a numerical treatment that spans the intermediate regime \(r_{ce} / b \sim 1\), connects on to asymptotic results in the two limits \(r_{ce} / b \ll 1\) and \(r_{ce} / b \gg 1\) and is in good agreement with experiments. Also, an improved asymptotic expression for the rate in the high field limit is derived. Secondly, the three-body recombination rate for an ion introduced into a cryogenic electron plasm in the high field limit is calculated. An ensemble of plasmas characterized by classical guiding center electrons and stationary ions is described with the BBGKY hierarchy. Under the assumption of weak electron correlation, the hierarchy is reduced to a master equation. Insight to the physics of the recombination process is obtained from the variational theory of reaction rates and from an approximate Fokker-Planck analysis. The master equation is solved numerically using a Monte Carlo simulation, and the recombination rate is determined to be 0.070(10)\(n_e^2 v_e b^5\) per ion, where \(n_e\) is the electron density and \(v_e = \sqrt{k_B T_e / m_e}\) is the thermal velocity. Also determined by the numerical simulation is the transient evolution of the distribution function from a depleted potential well about the ion to its steady state.

description: The Bioterra ANR project aims to identify, characterize and offer solutions with low environmental impact, to microbial proliferation on earth bio-based products (bricks and plasters). As part of this project, this paper deals with the mechanical characterization of earth plasters: the objective is to identify products meeting the main conditions of use for construction, as a basis for further research on microbial development. Several testing methods are presented and are applied on 2 different plaster formulations composed of clay, sand, water and various natural fibers. The following properties are studied : shrinkage, compressive strength, flexural and Brazilian tensile strength, abrasion. The testing procedure includes the preparation of large plaster slabs to ensure a representative fiber distribution within the test specimens. The plates are dried under stable humidity conditions and the drying process is monitored by successive weightings. Then the specimens are cut inside the plate for mechanical testing. The paper shows a full description of the testing procedure and presents the resistances obtained for various plaster formulations. It yields interesting results about the expected properties of natural fiber-reinforced earth plasters and proposes some criteria for product acceptability.

open classification system

description: Make Data Count (MDC) is a scholarly change initiative, made up of researchers and open infrastructure experts, building and advocating for evidence-based open data metrics. Throughout MDC’s tenure, various areas key to the development of research data assessment metrics have been identified. Please join a Spring seminar and discussion series centered around priority work areas, adjacent initiatives to learn from, and steps that can be taken immediately to drive diverse research communities towards assessment and reward for open data.

 The second webinar titled “EXPLORE: the need for an open classification system” will deal with the issue that most datasets do not have subject information. However, meaningful data metrics cannot be developed without disciplinary contexts; the scholarly communications community needs an open classification system for research outputs (articles, journals, datasets etc.) - is this feasible? In her presentation Daniella Lowenberg gives an introduction to the need for an open classification system.

In the case of Zimbabwe, is the notion of rule compliance too limiting a lens through which to analyse the normative effects of international human rights law?
Creators: name: Mpofu, Langa Rose
Publisher: name: Kent Student Law Review

description: The idea of compliance assumes that International Human Rights are existent, protected and are actively enforced in different states. Measuring compliance is an exercise in policing this enforcement but what this exercise will not show is the state of the human rights in each state. This paper explores the inadequacies of using compliance as a lens to consider the normative effects of international law using Zimbabwe as a case study. This study seeks to illustrate that there has to be a wider outlook which creates space for scrutiny of the state of human rights prior to producing tables and figures which shed no light on the media censorship or the rigging of elections.

description: Abstract Purpose: Recent developments in the field of cell therapy have led to a renewed interest in treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the early death of transplanted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in stressful microenvironment of a recipient tissue is a major problem with this kind of treatment. The objective of this study was to determine whether overexpression of a cytoprotective factor, nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2 (Nrf2), in MSCs could protect rats against AKI. Methods: The Nrf2 was overexpressed in MSCs by recombinant adenoviruses, and the MSCs were implanted to rats suffering from cisplatin-induced AKI. Results: The obtained results showed that transplantation with the engineered MSCs ameliorates cisplatin-induced AKI. Morphologic features of the investigated kidneys showed that transplantation with the MSCs in which Nrf2 had been overexpressed significantly improved the complications of AKI. Conclusion: These findings suggested that the engineered MSCs might be a good candidate to be further evaluated in clinical trials. However, detailed studies must be performed to investigate the possible carcinogenic effect of Nrf2 overexpression.
