description: As the capabilities of hypersonics vehicles have become the forefront domain of contention, each nation is seeking to mobilize the ability to rapidly develop hypersonic vehicles. However, the high degree of cost and challenges of the flight regime have slowed down the flight test cycle for new hypersonic vehicle designs. With improvements to computational modeling and integration of digital engineering, such as NASA's Configuration Based Aerodynamics (CBAERO) tool, the ability to supplement the design and testing phase of the flight test cycle becomes possible. However, it is still vital to efficiently test designs to maximize system knowledge using a systematic approach to investigate the design space. The use of a sequential design of experiments (DOE) allows for the model complexity and fidelity to grow by block, efficiently arriving at accurate conclusions without wasted test points. With the combination of a power analysis and iterative model analysis, the sequential strategy enables accelerated learning, statistically accurate modeling, and robustness to help reduce risk for testing. Two analyses of alternative design cases of hypersonic geometries were used with computational simulation of sequential DOE. The CBAERO results for both cases demonstrated efficient and accurate modeling of flight characteristic metrics, including a factor-response model with less than 6% normalized root mean squared error, optimal geometry design, and model uncertainty validation. Despite limitations from being a lower fidelity analysis than typical ground testing, the benefits gained from being time efficient and cost-effective open up possibilities to accelerate the flight test cycle using computational modeling. This methodology may also provide insight into risk reduction analysis and improvements in digital engineering with higher fidelity data from ground testing and even flight testing.
Un metodo di stima degli intervalli genesici
Creators: name: Ventisette, M.

Year: 2013

description: In order to calculate birth intervals it would be necessary to know the distribution of women by birth age, child birth orders and completed parity. As this peculiarity generally is not known, for the calculation of birth intervals we resort to the formulation of hypotheses on mean age of fertility at last child birth. In the recent fertility trend such hypotheses seem unsatisfactory as they lead, for some Tuscan birth cohorts of women, to evidently wrong estimation of birth intervals. Therefore we suggest a different procedure that permits, using ratios calculated by the data of the fertility table for which we want to measure birth intervals, to partition women with j children in two groups: those who have stopped their fertility and those who have carried on their fertility. Applied to the data of Tuscan birth cohorts of women, the method we suggest leads to satisfactory results apparently better than those obtained with other methods.

Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: In dynamically control field, the effectiveness of closed loop control is based on good knowledge of system parameters; it is then important to detect parameters changes, chiefly in off-line estimation field. According to the physical structure of plants represented by closed loop autoregressive models the system parameters may be divided into four classes: level and dynamic of transform system, level and dynamic of control system. This gives rise to four kinds of parameter ruptures, where rupture means step-change from one state to another. In the present paper the on-line rupture detection and classification problem is solved by means of a multiple decision procedure which enables the user to localize the rupture area.

Subjects: Bioakkumulation

description: The increasing application of nanomaterials and the notion that their distinct features compared to larger sized counterparts should be considered in safety assessment, has led to the development of risk assessment frameworks that are specific to nanomaterials. These frameworks aim to prioritise, rank or assess the safety of a nanomaterial efficiently by targeting critical information in order to conserve resources. The present overview shows that each nanomaterial framework has its own scope, advantages and disadvantages and all except one lack details such as decision criteria to come to conclusions and enable actual application. Those frameworks directed towards gaining information and making decisions on regulatory submissions at national and EU level are principally of interest. Additionally, those aimed at informing decision-making in the innovation chain are important. This manuscript also discusses issues relevant for exposure and hazard assessment of nanomaterials such as life cycle, bioaccumulation and delivered dose that should be considered in risk assessment frameworks. Elements for improving the feasibility to perform risk assessment in practice include standardised testing, knowledge on in vitro-in vivo comparison and functional assays. With this information and the need to increase the efficiency in risk assessment, future perspectives are outlined. Grouping and read-across approaches can bring some efficiency compared to a case-by-case approach. However, science is at present not advanced enough to fully substantiate decision criteria and specific protocols needed to considerably increase the efficiency. A possible way forward would be to pursue the development of a pragmatic and internationally accepted nanomaterial decision framework with decision criteria that can only be partially scientifically based. This would require the cooperation of policy makers, scientists and industry. © 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

description: L'usage d'un échangeur air-sol (EAHE) ou puits canadien couplé à un système de ventilation mécanique permet d'amortir et de déphaser la variation périodique de la température extérieure. Cela permet de préchauffer l'air de ventilation en période hivernale et de le rafraîchir en période estivale, entraînant des économies d'énergie. Cependant, durant certaines périodes, des condensats vont apparaître dans le puits, s'écouler dans celui-ci et s'accumuler en fin de puits. Ces condensats vont former un biotope propice au développement de micro-organismes dont certains sont pathogènes et peuvent contaminer l'air de ventilation. L'étude proposée a donc pour objectif de caractériser en volume et température sur une période de deux ans (année sèche et année humide) le biotope présent en fin de puits à l'aide de modélisations numériques. Ces conditions sont ensuite comparées aux conditions de développement des micro-organismes pathogènes identifiés dans les condensats. Pour atteindre cet objectif, différents modèles numériques ont été établis. Premièrement la partie horizontale du puits dans laquelle a lieu l'essentiel des transferts de chaleur et de masse, ainsi que la modélisation de l'écoulement des condensats dans cette partie du puits. Deuxièmement la géométrie particulière de la fin du puits où s'accumulent les condensats et où auront également lieu des transferts de chaleur et de masse. L'écoulement de l'air à l'interface des condensats varie en fonction de la quantité de condensats présents en fin de puits. Les transferts de chaleur convectifs peuvent donc être de types forcés, naturels ou mixtes et faire également varier les transferts de masse. Les modélisations numériques ont pu être validées à l'aide de relevés expérimentaux réalisés sur une installation témoin. Celle-ci est constituée de deux tuyaux enterrés à une profondeur allant de 1,25 m à l'entrée à 2 m à la sortie sur une longueur de 25 m. La pente de 3 \% permet l'évacuation des condensats et les concentre dans un volume à base cylindrique. L'analyse des micro-organismes a eu lieu sur différentes stations (air extérieur, condensat, sortie de puits, air intérieur). Les échantillons prélevés ont fait l'objet d'une extraction d'ADN, d'un séquençage et d'un traitement bio-informatique pour identifier les micro-organismes (bactéries et fungi). Les espèces bactériennes et fongiques identifiées ont été comparées aux bases de données FAPROTAX et FUNGUILD pour identifier les pathogènes et ce sont les normes allemandes TRBA 460 et 466 qui ont permis le classement des micro-organismes pathogènes en fonction de leur niveau de risques pour l'homme.

description: Family caregivers of persons with dementia (PwD) experience three-times more post-acute care transitions (PACT) to skilled nursing facilities than other caregivers. During Covid-19, visitation policies drastically changed, limiting family caregiver engagement. This was a widespread experience; yet, few studies have examined dementia family caregivers’ perceptions of PACT engagement during Covid-19 restrictions. This qualitative study focused the findings and lessons learned about the meaning of engagement, barriers, facilitators, and support needs during Covid-19, using an interpretive descriptive approach.

description: This study aimed to evaluate the antidepressant-like and antioxidant potential of the aqueous leaf extract of Morus nigra L. in rats subjected to unpredictable chronic mild stress (UCMS). Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups, control and stressed, and treated with saline or aqueous extract of M. nigra. The dose administered was 10 mg/kg daily by gavage for 5 weeks concurrently with UCMS. M. nigra extract which showed syringic acid, quercetin, and rutin, as major phenolic compounds decreased the immobility time without changes in locomotor activity of stressed rats, in the forced swimming and open field tests, respectively. In addition, the extract diminished carbonylated proteins, lipid peroxidation, and nitrite levels in the brains of rats subjected to UCMS. These data reinforced antidepressant-like properties with the involvement of oxidative stress modulation by M. nigra extract pointing it as a possible new adjuvant treatment for depression.

description: When the problem of estimating the parameters of a probability distribution is not easy because of too many parameters or the complexity of the analytical form of the distribution, the preliminary estimation of some parameters can usefully simplify the general estimation problem. We consider some very general probability densities which are regularly varying at + oo  or at the endpoint of their  support, with index a, and having a shape parameter k. In the paper we obtain some relations between k and a. Since a takes the meaning of parameter of regular variation of the upper tail of the distributions and it can be estimated in the context of the tail estimation of a distribution, then the shape parameter k can also be estimated directly by means the above said relations.

description: The concept of resolution has been recently introduced (see Zanella (1988)) as a possible criterion for comparing the most usual descriptive normalized measures of association like those of Goodman-Kruskal, Cramèr, Mortara and of the entropic type.
For a given contingency table, the paper refers to the problem of the existence of directions along which Mortara's measure of association is more (not less) resolving than any of the others above mentioned (admissibility). In the first part of the paper stationary directions, for which the resolution function of Mortara's measure of association takes its maximum value, are found. The second part of the study deals with the comparison of the above mentioned measures of association along the former stationary directions and that is done from a theoretical as well as numerical point of view. The following conclusion has been reached Mortara's measure of association can be considered as being admissible in regard to the others, as far as square contingency tables are concerned.

description: Over two-thirds of children have experienced at least one traumatic event by the age of 16 (Samhsa, 2022). Addressing the impact of such trauma is necessary to the prevention of future childhood adversities. This project traces toxic stress’ historical exploration to the crucial Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) study conducted by Kaiser Permanente and the CDC in the 1990s. The understanding of the profound connection between childhood trauma and adult health conditions teaches the population to be mindful of toxic stress and how it can negatively impact development. The ACEs Study’s contributions sparked opportunities for mental health programs to offer life-changing services. Collaborating with mental health professionals from Ni2C, a nonprofit dedicated to integral coaching and trauma-informed programs, the project focuses on designing an original curriculum workbook. This workbook project explores resilient methods to heal trauma of clients from different locations around the world from NI2C’s R.E.P.A.I.R program. The material is to provide healing practices to participants developing reflection prompts for coaching sessions. Combining psychological principles with artistic expression, the workbook was inspired from the 60-page curriculum used in their pilot program that aims to inspire resilience. Utilizing design, evidence-based insights on interpersonal trauma, and somatic grounding techniques, the workbook will be used for future cohorts.
Is ratio of the maximum to the minimum of two normal sample variance a viable alternative to F-ratio test?

description: Pandey and Bhattacharya (1986) derived the distribution of the ratio of the maximum to the minimum of two independent normal sample variances for testing the equality of their population variances. However, the usual test statistic is the F-ratio —the ratio of the two sample variances. In real applications of the F-ratio test, it is customary to use the larger sample variance in the numerator (McClave and Dietrich, II (1988), p. 460). In this short note, we show that if, instead of using the F-ratio test, one uses the ratio of the maximum to the minimum of two sample variances as a test statistic, the power of the test is very small questioning the viability of the test as an alternative to the F-ratio test.

Comprendre le comportement du matériau terre à différentes échelles est fondamental pour aspirer à son intégration et sa valorisation dans l'architecture de demain. Ce travail rapporte les résultats d'une caractérisation physique et thermique de blocs de terre comprimée (BTC) produits avec les terres issues du chantier du Grand Paris. De plus, ces résultats sont utilisés pour simuler le comportement des parois en BTC à l'aide du logiciel de simulation Delphin. Grâce à la simulation, il est possible d'estimer le comportement statique et dynamique des parois en BTC dans un climat de référence. Enfin, les résultats des simulations sont comparés avec des mesures faites sur parois en BTC grandeur nature. Cette paroi a été testée à l'intérieur d'une boîte chaude gardée dans laquelle ont été reproduites des conditions de température similaires à celles simulées. Finalement, la comparaison entre les deux ensembles de résultats, effectuée en termes de résistance thermique et de paramètres dynamiques (facteur d'atténuation et déphasage), est présentée.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The gay panic - or homosexual advance – defence has allowed people literally to get away with murder. It's given them a way to convince juries they were provoked to kill because a homosexual person propositioned them. In an alarming number of cases, juries were convinced that an advance by a gay - or supposedly gay - man was sufficient provocation for killing him. Juries have opted instead to convict the defendant of the lesser offence of manslaughter. Over the past 14 years this practice has been abolished across Australia’s states and territories; Queensland is the latest state to do so. In this episode of Change Agents, Andrew Dodd speaks to Catholic priest Fr Paul Kelly and Sydney barrister David Buchanan, SC, about how they did it.

title: Development of Frameworks for Data-led Predictive Modelling of Complex Compounds and Structures at Different Scales
Creators: name: Qing, X
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2026

description: The main work reported in this thesis is focused on first-principles calculation for establishing the effects of point defects and doping on the structures and properties of Mo2C and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of different materials in Fe-Cr-Ni system, including single crystals and polycrystal structures. The first principles method was adopted to investigate the structure and energy of point defects and defect complexes in molybdenum β-Mo2C. Systematic data (Mulliken atomic charge, bond population, DOS, Band structures, magnetic moments) is developed, and the effects of a range of substitutional doping elements on the magnetic properties of Mo₂C is analysed. Based on the energy and structural data, the SV-Mo model (substituting Mo with V) is a preferable point defect in Mo2C. The dopant (Fe, Cr, Co, Ni, W)-specific local magnetic moments data indicate that dopants with higher unpaired d-electrons, such as Fe, Co, are more effective at enhancing the magnetic properties of Mo₂C and the doping elements have a similar effect on the magnetic moment for 3D and 2D Mo2C structures. 

The work on molecular dynamics modelling is focused on program development to predict the melting process, phase changes, and mechanical behaviour of the Fe-Ni-Cr system. The data covered single crystals and polycrystalline grain structures of Fe, Fe-Ni or Fe-Ni-Cr compositions. Python program for extracting common neighbour analysis (CNA) and Radial Distribution Function (RDF) is presented and used to develop systematic structural and phase data related to melting simulation and different mechanical deformation. User interfaces have been developed for MD simulation of single crystals and polycrystals. The use of the models to parametrically study the phase changes in samples of different shapes and boundary conditions is presented and analysed. The key issues such as compositional effects, potential energy and phase changes under the more complex boundaries are discussed and future work is highlighted.

description: Background: CD276 is an immune checkpoint molecule. Elevated CD276 expression by urothelial carcinoma is associated with poor prognosis, but little is known about its expression across different tumor stages. We therefore investigated CD276 expression in bladder cancer (BC) cells and in tissue samples of BC stages from pT2 to pT4. Methods: CD276 expression was explored in 4 urothelial cancer cell lines and 4 primary normal urothelial cell populations by quantitative RT-PCR, Western blot and flow cytometry. CD276 was investigated in bladder tumors from 98 patients by immunohistochemistry using a score (0–300) incorporating both, staining intensity and area of CD276 staining. Normal appearing urothelium in the bladder of the same patients served as controls. Results: The urothelial carcinoma cell lines expressed significantly higher levels of CD276 on transcript (p < 0.006), total protein levels (p < 0.005), and on the cell surface (p < 0.02) when compared to normal urothelial cells. In pT2–T4 tumor tissue samples, CD276 was overexpressed (median score 185) when compared to corresponding healthy tissues from the same patients (median score 50; p < 0.001). No significant differences in CD276 expression were recorded in late, locally advanced ≥ pT3a tumors (median score 185) versus organ-confined < pT3a tumors (median score 190), but it was significantly lower in the normal urothelial tissue associated with ≥ pT3a tumors (median score 40) versus < pT3a tumors (median score 80; p < 0.05). Conclusion: CD276 expression is significantly elevated in urothelial carcinoma cells in all stages but varies between individuals considerably. Reduced CD276 expression in normal urothelial cells may imply that these cells would be protected from CD276-mediated immuno therapies.

Year: 2024

description: This research is for the study of different type of structural scheme of structural slab considering architectural aesthetic, functional requirement with optimal design solution. Most of the time the architect wishes to fit aesthetic appearance of his design in structural scheme, with other services for functional requirement. A few architects don’t bother about structural scheme, by considering hiding the structure with other cosmetic treatment, false ceiling. These cosmetic treatments are additional expenses in the project cost. A structural design can be said to be unique design, which will fulfil the requirement of architectural appearance, other services/ functional requirement without other expenses.

An alternative of conventional beam slab can be with flat slab, waffle slab, wide beam slab.

This paper describes the analysis of a commercial building with different types of structural slab design. The study of different type if slabs has been considered based on aesthetic appearance, economical, ease in construction. The behaviour of building was investigated using STAAD Pro connect software. For modelling and analysis of old Traditional slab flat slab, Waffle slab and one-way ribbed slab structural, STAAD Pro connect. The dead load, live load Seismic and wind load considered as per Indian codes IS 456: 2000 IS 1893 & IS 875: 1987 (all parts). Study result will be summarized in conclusion part of this paper.

description: This article points out that the interval of confidence for the Gini concentration ratio —proposed by Gastwirth et al.—is an asymptotically ultra-conservative confidence interval.
It has in fact been shown the probability of the confidence interval tends asymptotically to one.
This result has been empirically checked by using the methodology based on the simulation of the sample space. The simulations carried out on three models for income distribution that is Pareto, Log-normal and Dagum, allowed us to remark that the number of samples required to verify the asymptotic convergence increases with the increase of the number of income classes into which the sample is divided.
The number of samples in which the confidence level of the interval examined was equal to one is considerably lower than the numbers usually considered in real analysis of income distribution.

A new clustering criterior based on the distance matrix
Creators: name: La Tona, L.
name: Mineo, A.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: A new clustering method of a distance matrix is proposed here. The algorithm is based on the arrangement of the original entities in increasing order along a line of minimum distance and on permuting the elements of the distance matrix. The clustering is made with the constraint that the clusters must be formed by contiguous entities of the arranged series. Some applications to real problems prove the good properties of the new method both for the provided final partitions and for the strong reduction of calculations.

description: This is a technical documentation for the compact metadata schema (minISA) defined by Scientific Data for serving essential summary information about a dataset associated with a Data Descriptor article. The JSON schema expressed specification retains a number of core descriptors defined by the ISA model, but condenses the metadata elements to enable researchers without familiarity with the ISA model to record key characteristics about their generated data in this structured metadata format.
On some properties of the Moran index
Creators: name: Morin, D.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: The Moran index which is often used to detect spatial autocorrelation among geographical  data in the main focus of this paper. In this article, we will derive exact and simple expression for the corresponding moments when the vector of observations is from a multivariate exchangeable population. We will also derive the distribution function of some ratios of quadratic forms, which like the Moran index are function of commuting matrices.

On accelerating sequential procedures for point estimation: the normal case
Creators: name: Hamdy, H. I.
name: Son, M. S.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: An accelerated sequential procedure is proposed to save the number of sampling  operations we would have observed had the purely sequential procedures been used. The method  is outlined as it pertains to the point estimation of the unknown normal mean. We supplement our theoretical findings with simulations to study the moderate sample size performance of the proposed procedure.

Denatalità e invecchiamento nella provincia di Modena
Creators: name: Paltrinieri, R.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: The Italian demographic reality has made evident an "unhealthy" situation which would obviously get worse with the birth-rate decreasing even further. The research was intended to verify if evidence does exists, such as to supply at least an inversion trend of the phenomenon. The province of Modena, made of 47 districts, was taken as an example. As shown by some scientific surveys, Modena is one of the most advanced at a socio-economic level. The detailed nature of the survey required a specific and through examination by a   previous partition of the  of the territory (according to its altitude and the tipologies of the districts) and the calculation of the indices of the demographics dynamics in its essential components, as  well as regarding to the "renewal of the working population" of those areas. From the contrasting typologies, a progressive growth of the birth-rate has become evident in the semi-urban and  urban districts for the considerable decrease of the same phenomenon in the semi-rural districts. However, the optimistic trend will have to face serious obstacles in order to a reproductive behaviour appearing irreversible. In the meantime it cannot be excluded that the individual might come to attach "social value" to procreation, perhaps with the help of government provisions of a socioeconomic nature.

On the definition and some justification of the Likelihood Principle
Creators: name: Frosini, B. V.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2013

description: Two points have been raised about the Likelihood Principle (LP). The first relates to the definition of LP: it has been shown that one of the two available definitions is hardly acceptable outside a strictly Bayesian context. The cue for the second issue is taken from Birnbaum's proof (and other similar proofs) that the LP - in its strong version - is implied by other more fundamental principles, which most statisticians tend to accept; some of these principles or axioms, after subjection to severe critical discussion, have been recognized as inadequate for general agreement. Moreover, it is shown that Birnbaum's proof - as well as others with the same demonstration structure - is logically false.

description: Residual sweet lime peels after the extraction of essential oil by solvent free microwave extraction were used for developing biodegradable film. Glycerol as a plasticizer, soya lecithin as an emulsifier and sweet lime essential oil (0, 1, 2 and 3%) as an active agent was employed. Developed films were analyzed for their mechanical, barrier and antimicrobial properties. The films (with 3% essential oil) which reported highest antimicrobial property against E. coli (24.24 ± 2.69 mm) were wrapped on fish fillet and stored at the refrigerated condition for 12 days. The quality of fish fillets was evaluated every 4 days and compared with polyethylene wrapped and control fish fillets. The active film wrapped sample showed less surface microbial count (3.28 ± 0.16 log cfu/cm²) compared to polyethylene wrapped sample. The hardness values were increased during storage and cohesiveness and springiness of all wrapped samples decreased from day 0 to day 12.

title: Bystander Obligations at the Domestic and International Level Compared

Subjects: Völkerrecht

description: Goettingen Journal of International Law; Vol. 6, no. 1, page 47-79
description: This article examines whether States have a legal obligation to assist victims of serious breaches of fundamental obligations owed to the international community as a whole. This so-called ‘bystander State responsibility’ is compared with a similar legal obligation to assist victims at the domestic level. First, the method of comparing the legal obligations of international bystander States with the legal obligations of domestic bystanders is examined. Is it appropriate to compare the two legal frameworks, and why (not)? What can we learn from such a comparison? After these preliminary remarks, the types of situation in which bystander intervention is – or ought to be – legally required are identified in general terms. This is followed by an exposé of the raisons d’être of bystander obligations. After having looked at reasons why bystanders ought to intervene in theory, the article analyzes justifications for not intervening in practice, both at the domestic and international level. Finally, the different stages of bystander intervention are compared. First, the bystander must be aware of the need to intervene, then the bystander must accept personal responsibility to do so, and then the bystander has to choose the appropriate type of assistance.
