description: ABSTRACT: This scoping review will aim to inform a deeper understanding of the varied experiences of ageing in place for older adults in Australia and New Zealand. The review will evaluate older adults’ experiences of ageing in place as well as their understanding of and expectations of ageing in place. The review will also look at how ageing in place affects older adults’ mental health, life satisfaction, wellbeing, and overall ability to adapt well to ageing. This protocol will follow the process outlined by the Joanna Briggs Institute Methods Manual for Scoping Reviews as well as guidelines published by Arksey and O’Malley. Findings will be reported using the guidelines provided in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The search will include three electronic databases: CINAL, PsychINFO and Medline. Reference list searching will be conducted to reduce the possibility of missed literature. Papers will be restricted to those published in English that have been peer reviewed. Grey literature will not be included. The authors will extract themes and concepts to establish where the current literature stands and to identify research gaps and directions for future research and policy.

description: Objective: Identify prognostic factors for delayed healing of complex wound types in adults. Introduction: The high prevalence of persons with wounds and its consequences for person's quality of life makes the issue a relevant focus of attention for healthcare professionals. In this way, by knowing the prognostic factors, the individual risk of complications can be predicted, making it possible to alert to imminent delays and guide decision-making, helping healthcare professionals and the person himself. Inclusion criteria: This review will consider all quantitative and mix studies that include adults with complex, chronic or difficult to heal wounds and report the prognostic factors for delayed healing in any care settings. Methods: Scoping review according to Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology and guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist. Published studies will be searched through Medline, CINAHL, Nursing & Allied Health Database, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Web of Science and, also will include unpublished in repositories, Google Scholar, and wound care or tissue viability societies. Full texts included in Portuguese, Spanish, French and English in the last 5 years. The selection of articles will be carried out by two reviewers independently, using EndNoteWeb and Rayyan and will use a table designed by the authors for data collection. Prognostic factors will be presented in graphs by years and publication locations, study design, wound types, and measurement methods.

description: We have characterized in depth the time response of three detectors equipped with cylindrical LaBr$_{3}$ (Ce) crystals with dimensions of 1-in. in height and 1-in. in diameter, and having nominal Ce doping concentration of 5%, 8% and 10%. Measurements were performed at $^{60}$Co and $^{22}$Na γ-ray energies against a fast BaF$_{2}$ reference detector. The time resolution was optimized by the choice of the photomultiplier bias voltage and the fine tuning of the parameters of the constant fraction discriminator, namely the zero-crossing and the external delay. We report here on the optimal time resolution of the three crystals. It is observed that timing properties are influenced by the amount of Ce doping and the crystal homogeneity. For the crystal with 8% of Ce doping the use of the ORTEC 935 CFD at very shorts delays in addition to the Hamamatsu R9779 PMT has made it possible to improve the LaBr$_{3}$(Ce) time resolution from the best literature value at 60Co photon energies to below 100 ps.

description: Interactive Recommender Systems (IRSs) have attracted a lot of attention, due to their ability to model interactive processes between users and recommender systems. Numerous approaches have adopted Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms, as these can directly maximize users' cumulative rewards. In IRS, researchers commonly utilize publicly available review datasets to compare and evaluate algorithms. However, user feedback provided in public datasets merely includes instant responses (e.g., a rating), with no inclusion of delayed responses (e.g., the dwell time and the lifetime value). Thus, the question remains whether these review datasets are an appropriate choice to evaluate the long-term effects of the IRS. In this work, we revisited experiments on IRS with review datasets and compared RL-based models with a simple reward model that greedily recommends the item with the highest one-step reward. Following extensive analysis, we can reveal three main findings: First, a simple greedy reward model consistently outperforms RL-based models in maximizing cumulative rewards. Second, applying higher weighting to long-term rewards leads to a degradation of recommendation performance. Third, user feedbacks have mere long-term effects on the benchmark datasets. Based on our findings, we conclude that a dataset has to be carefully verified and that a simple greedy baseline should be included for a proper evaluation of RL-based IRS approaches.

description: We obtain classes of black hole solutions constructed from multiplets of scalar fields in 2+1 / 3+1 dimensions. The multi-component scalars don't undergo a symmetry breaking so that only the isotropic modulus is effective. The Lagrangian is supplemented by a self-interacting potential which plays significant role in obtaining the exact solutions. In 2+1 / 3+1 dimensions doublet / triplet of scalars is effective which enriches the available black hole spacetimes and creates useful Liouville weighted field theoretic models.

description: This article, in an effort to foster discussion on potential implications for weather communication methods, seeks to provide for meteorologists a thorough overview and analysis of the characteristics of Autism Spectrum Conditions. ASC impacts cognitive development and communication ability, and although prevalence has increased steadily in recent years, little attention has been paid to it by the weather community in discussions to improve overall weather communication. With our analysis, we hope to communicate to meteorologists some of the challenges faced by individuals with ASC, which may affect their receipt of weather communication, and identify areas where potential research at the intersection of meteorology and ASC may occur so that the weather preparedness needs of these populations can be more effectively met. This paper argues ASC should be an important consideration for the weather enterprise as many of its characteristics suggest that those with the condition are at higher risk than others in times of dangerous weather.

description: Glass transition is accompanied by a rapid growth of the structural relaxation time and a concomitant decrease of configurational entropy. It remains unclear whether the transition has a thermodynamic origin, and whether the dynamic arrest is associated with the growth of a certain static order. Using granular packing as a model hard-sphere glass, we show the glass transition as a thermodynamic phase transition with a "hidden" polytetrahedral order. This polytetrahedral order is spatially correlated with the slow dynamics. It is geometrically frustrated and has a peculiar fractal dimension. Additionally, as the packing fraction increases, its growth follows an entropy-driven nucleation process, similar to that of the random first-order transition theory. Our study essentially identifies a long-sought-after structural glass order in hard-sphere glasses.

description: Thin-film based phase plates are meanwhile a widespread tool to enhance the contrast of weak-phase objects in transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The thin film usually consists of amorphous carbon, which suffers from quick degeneration under the intense electron-beam illumination. Recent investigations have focused on the search for alternative materials with an improved material stability. This work presents thin-film based phase plates fabricated from metallic glass alloys, which are characterized by a high electrical conductivity and an amorphous structure. Thin films of the zirconium-based alloy Zr65.0Al7.5Cu27.5 (ZAC) are prepared and their phase-shifting properties are tested. The ZAC-alloy film is investigated by different TEM techniques, which reveal a range of beneficial characteristics. Particularly favorable is the small probability for inelastic plasmon scattering, which is promising to improve the performance of thin-film based phase plates in phase-contrast TEM.

description: Swarm robotics is envisioned to automate a large number of dirty, dangerous, and dull tasks. Robots have limited energy, computation capability, and communication resources. Therefore, current swarm robotics have a small number of robots, which can only provide limited spatio-temporal information. In this paper, we propose to leverage the mobile edge computing to alleviate the computation burden. We develop an effective solution based on a mobility-aware deep reinforcement learning model at the edge server side for computing scheduling and resource. Our results show that the proposed approach can meet delay requirements and guarantee computation precision by using minimum robot energy.

Modelling the Galactic disc: perturbed distribution functions in the presence of spiral arms

description: Starting from an axisymmetric equilibrium distribution function (DF) in action space, representing a Milky Way thin disc stellar population, we use the linearized Boltzmann equation to explicitly compute the response to a three-dimensional spiral potential in terms of the perturbed DF. This DF, valid away from the main resonances, allows us to investigate a snapshot of the velocity distribution at any given point in three-dimensional configuration space. Moreover, the first order moments of the DF give rise to non-zero radial and vertical bulk flows -- namely breathing modes -- qualitatively similar to those recently observed in the extended Solar neighbourhood. We show that these analytically predicted mean stellar motions are in agreement with the outcome of test-particle simulations. Moreover, we estimate for the first time the reduction factor for the vertical bulk motions of a stellar population compared to the case of a cold fluid. Such an explicit expression for the full perturbed DF of a thin disc stellar population in the presence of spiral arms will be helpful in order to dynamically interpret the detailed information on the Milky Way disc stellar kinematics that will be provided by upcoming large astrometric and spectroscopic surveys of the Galaxy.

Language-sensitive teaching as an emergent response to increasing linguistic diversity in Irish post-primary schools: challenges, opportunities and implications for teacher education

description: The 21st century has been characterised by an unprecedented growth in transnational migration with education systems in many countries challenged to address the implications of this ongoing global phenomenon. This paper reports on a recent study that was undertaken amongst teachers and school managers in post-primary state schools in Ireland to explore the current position regarding language-sensitive teaching as an emergent response to the growing reality of linguistic diversity in schools. Bottom-up research of this kind is vital as it can shed light on the perceptions and experiences of the key stakeholders involved in order to determine their related professional needs and shape future directions in teacher education in this area. The key findings show that language-sensitive teaching remains in its infancy in the Irish post-primary educational context with an urgent need for teacher awareness-raising and upskilling in relation to this approach and its implementation in different subject classrooms. The research has also indicated that language support teachers can play a central role in developing language-sensitive teaching at the whole school level but this potential remains largely under-exploited in the Irish post-primary educational context.

description: Electrooxidation is an attractive technique that can be effectively applied for the treatment of persistent organic contaminants, but its implementation in practice is limited by the lack of efficient and low cost anode material that would not lead to the generation of chlorinated by products. Herein, we developed a novel anode based on TiO2 nanotube array NTA coated with Mo-doped MnxOy, and applied it for electrooxidation of persistent organic contaminants. The Ti TiO2 NTA MnxOyMo anode outperformed the commercial Ti IrOxPt anode and effectively oxidized organic contaminants, with a significantly reduced electric energy per order, and avoiding chlorine evolution reaction. Mo doping played a key role in the excellent performance of the synthesized anode as it favored the formation of oxygen vacancies in the host lattice and Mn and Mo species redox couples, which increased the oxidizing power of the anode and ensured its complete stability.

description: Metal-graphene-metal photodetectors utilize photocurrent generated near the graphene/metal junctions and have many advantages including high speed and broad-band operation. Here, we report on photocurrent generation at ABA/ABC stacking domain junctions in tri-layer graphene with a responsivity of 0.18 A/W. Unlike usual metal-graphene-metal devices, the photocurrent is generated in the middle of the graphene channel, not confined to the vicinity of the metal electrodes. The magnitude and the direction of the photocurrent depend on the back-gate bias. Theoretical calculations show that there is a built-in band offset between the two stacking domains, and the dominant mechanism of the photocurrent is the photo-thermoelectric effect due to the Seebeck coefficient difference.
