description: This third issue of Aerospace Lab is dedicated to High Temperature Materials.
This is a class of materials that has been at the forefront of research and
development for almost fifty years at ONERA. A number of new materials and processes
were invented and world class research was performed throughout these years.
Concurrently, great progress has been made in the mechanics of materials to facilitate
lifing analysis. However, these aspects are not presented in this issue. The focus
here is on materials for propulsion, especially in the hot section of the turbines.
These materials cover a large variety of applications and many of them are already
being used, especially in aircraft engines. The purpose of the papers published in
this issue is to illustrate the state-of-the art, the progress made and the future
prospects for such materials and systems in propulsion systems.

description: Background: Gabapentinoids are increasingly incorporated into multimodal analgesia protocols for surgery. However, these drugs are not approved by the US FDA for use in managing surgical pain , and little is known regarding the effects of this off-label use on prolonged post-surgical opioid use following surgery.

Objectives: We estimate the association between preoperative day-of-surgery gabapentinoid administration on the risk of prolonged postsurgical opioid use.

Methods: We identified older adults (65+ years) undergoing surgery using electronic health records (EHR) from a large integrated healthcare system in the southeast (2016-2019) . Exposure to preoperative gabapentinoids was measured using inpatient medication administration records on the day of surgery, and the outcome of prolonged opioid use was measured using outpatient medication order s. We used stabilized inverse probability of treatment weights with 1% asymmetric trimming to adjust for patient demographics, baseline health indicators, preoperative pain score, and surgical details. We used log-binomial regression to estimate risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals (Cl) of prolonged opioid use comparing patients who received preoperative gabapentinoids to those who did not.

Results: Overall, 17,435 surgical patients met inclusion criteria, of whom 17.2% received preoperative gabapentinoids. The overall observed 90-day risk of prolonged opioid use following surgery was 1.20% (95% Cl: 1.05, 1.38) patients. The adjusted risk ratio of prolonged opioid use comparing patients who received a dose of preoperative gabapentinoids on the day of surgery to those who did not was 1.67 (95% Cl: 0.85,3.23).

Conclusions: Using data from a large integrated health system, we did not find evidence that preoperative gabapentinoids reduced the risk of prolonged opioid use in patients undergoing a broad range of surgeries. Off-label use of these medications to manage surgical pain should be carefully evaluated.

description: Background: Morphine-standardized analgesic doses are used in clinical practice and research to account for molecular potency. 90 milligrams of morphine equivalents (MME) per day are considered a “high dose” risk threshold in guidelines and laws. Theoretically total MME (numerator) is divided by days supply (denominator) to calculate daily MME. Although ubiquitously cited the “CDC definition” of daily MME lacks a clearly defined denominator.

Objectives: To assess the sensitivity of denominator-dependency on “high dose” classification across 4 competing definitions of daily MME.

Methods: To identify definitional variants, we examined text descriptions from 27 studies cited in the 2016 CDC Pain Management Guideline, literature, and electronic prescribing tools; our review yielded 4 unique definitions. Using Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs data (Jul-Sep 2018), we conducted a population-based cohort study of 3,916,461 patients who received outpatient opioid analgesics in California (CA) and Florida (FL). The binary outcome was whether patients were deemed “high dose” (>90 MME/day), which we compared across the 4 definitions. We calculated I^2 for heterogeneity attributable solely to definition, and stratified by extended/immediate release.

Results: In a simple example, a 30-day supply of 2 partially overlapping oxycodone prescriptions have daily MME varying across 4 definitions: 76mg (total days supply); 93mg (on-therapy days); 31mg (fixed observation window); or 105mg (maximum daily dose). Among 9,436,640 prescriptions, 42% overlapped, which led denominator definitions to impact daily MME values. Across definitions, average daily MME varied 3-fold [range: 17-52 (CA) and 23-65 mg (FL)]. Across the definitions, prevalence of “high dose” individuals ranged 5.9%-14.2% (FL) and 3.5%-10.3% (CA). Definitional variation would impact a hypothetical surveillance study trying to establish how much more “high dose” prescribing was present in FL than CA: from 34% to 79% more.
Meta-analyses revealed strong heterogeneity (I^2 range 86%-99%) based solely on MME definition, impacting immediate- and extended-release differentially. In the sensitivity analysis, including unit interval 90.0-to-90.9 in the boundary increased the “high dose” population fraction by 15.4%.

Conclusions: Previously unrecognized definitional variation confounds surveillance metrics and constrains real-world applicability of observational studies. While 90 MME may have cautionary mnemonic benefits, without harmonization of calculation, its utility is limited. Comparison between studies using daily MME requires explicit attention to definitional variation for validity.

description: Due to the rise of spherical cameras, monocular 360 depth estimation becomes an important technique for many applications (e.g., autonomous systems). Thus, state-of-the-art frameworks for monocular 360 depth estimation such as bi-projection fusion in BiFuse are proposed. To train such a framework, a large number of panoramas along with the corresponding depth ground truths captured by laser sensors are required, which highly increases the cost of data collection. Moreover, since such a data collection procedure is time-consuming, the scalability of extending these methods to different scenes becomes a challenge. To this end, self-training a network for monocular depth estimation from 360 videos is one way to alleviate this issue. However, there are no existing frameworks that incorporate bi-projection fusion into the self-training scheme, which highly limits the self-supervised performance since bi-projection fusion can leverage information from different projection types. In this paper, we propose BiFuse++ to explore the combination of bi-projection fusion and the self-training scenario. To be specific, we propose a new fusion module and Contrast-Aware Photometric Loss to improve the performance of BiFuse and increase the stability of self-training on real-world videos. We conduct both supervised and self-supervised experiments on benchmark datasets and achieve state-of-the-art performance.

description: We discuss phenomenological aspects of no-scale supergravity inflationary models motivated by compactified string models, in which the inflaton may be identified either as a Kähler modulus or an untwisted matter field, focusing on models that make predictions for the scalar spectral index $n_s$ and the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ that are similar to the Starobinsky model. We discuss possible patterns of soft supersymmetry breaking, exhibiting examples of the pure no-scale type $m_0 = B_0 = A_0 = 0$, of the CMSSM type with universal $A_0$ and $m_0 \ne 0$ at a high scale, and of the mSUGRA type with $A_0 = B_0 + m_0$ boundary conditions at the high input scale. These may be combined with a non-trivial gauge kinetic function that generates gaugino masses $m_{1/2} \ne 0$, or one may have a pure gravity mediation scenario where trilinear terms and gaugino masses are generated through anomalies. We also discuss inflaton decays and reheating, showing possible decay channels for the inflaton when it is either an untwisted matter field or a Kähler modulus. Reheating is very efficient if a matter field inflaton is directly coupled to MSSM fields, and both candidates lead to sufficient reheating in the presence of a non-trivial gauge kinetic function.

description: The third issue of Aerospace Lab is dedicated to high temperature materials.
Onera has been at the forefront of research and development for this
class of materials for the past five decades, especially for aerospace engine
applications. Starting in the mid 1960’s, many new materials and processes
were invented, and cutting-edge research was carried out during this period.
Similarly and concurrently, great progress has been made in mechanical
modeling and lifing analysis, but a description of these aspects will require
a full separate issue. The focus here is on materials in the hot sections of
compressors and turbines. These materials have a wide range of applications.
The purpose of the papers that follow is to illustrate the state-of-the art, the
progress made and the future outlook for such materials in propulsion systems.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study of Interaction between Model Rough Hydrophobic Surfaces
Creators: name: Berkowitz, Max

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: We study some aspects of hydrophobic interaction between molecular rough and flexible model surfaces. The model we use in this work is based on a model we used previously (Eun, C.; Berkowitz, M. L. J. Phys. Chem. B 2009, 113, 13222-13228), when we studied the interaction between model patches of lipid membranes. Our original model consisted of two graphene plates with attached polar headgroups; the plates were immersed in a water bath. The interaction between such plates can be considered as an example of a hydrophilic interaction. In the present work we modify our previous model by removing the charge from the zwitterionic headgroups. As a result of this procedure, the plate character changes; it becomes hydrophobic. By separating the total interaction (or potential of mean force, PMF) between plates into the direct and the water-mediated interactions we observe that the latter changes from repulsive to attractive, clearly emphasizing the important role of water as a medium. We also investigate the effect of roughness and flexibility of the headgroups on the interaction between plates and observe that roughness enhances the character of the hydrophobic interaction. The presence of a dewetting transition in a confined space between charge-removed plates confirms that the interaction between plates is strongly hydrophobic. In addition, we notice that there is a shallow local minimum in the PMF in case of charge-removed plates. We find that this minimum is associated with the configurational changes that flexible headgroups undergo, as the two plates are brought together.

description: Статья посвящена раскрытию художественных аспектов оппозиции реальное – виртуальное в произведениях русского киберпанка. Так, одним из таких художественных аспектов является образ главного героя, которому противопоставлена гротескно-фантастически изображаемая виртуальная реальность. При помощи приема контраста реального и гротескно-фантастически изображаемого виртуального пространства авторы показывают, что чувство любви для главного героя русского киберпанка – это часть реального, а не иллюзорного существования. Смысловая оппозиция реальное – виртуальное получает художественное выражение и в ситуациях, связанных с сюжетом, в которые попадает главный герой. В статье делается вывод, что еще один способ художественного выражения оппозиции реальное – виртуальное – это субъектная организации художественного мира.

description: We demonstrate a new procedure to derive accurate and precise surface gravities from high resolution spectra without the use of external constraints. Our analysis utilizes Spectroscopy Made Easy (SME) with robust spectral line constraints and uses an iterative process to mitigate degeneracies in the fitting process. We adopt an updated radiative transfer code, a new treatment for neutral perturber broadening, a line list with multiple gravity constraints and separate fitting for global stellar properties and abundance determinations. To investigate the sources of temperature dependent trends in determining log g noted in previous studies, we obtained Keck HIRES spectra of 42 Kepler asteroseismic stars. In comparison to asteroseismically determined log g our spectroscopic analysis has a constant offset of 0.01 dex with a root mean square (RMS) scatter of 0.05 dex. We also analyzed 30 spectra which had published surface gravities determined using the $a/R_*$ technique from planetary transits and found a constant offset of 0.06 dex and RMS scatter of 0.07 dex. The two samples covered effective temperatures between 5000K and 6700K with log g between 3.7 and 4.6.

Традиционные СМИ столкнулись с кризисом в первом десятилетии XXI века. Причинами ему послужили развитие цифровых каналов связи и мировой экономический кризис. Как и большинство медиарынков, с конца 1990-х рынок СМИ Великобритании переживал дигитализацию. Несмотря на глобальные изменения медиарынка, остались неизменными национальные особенности, связанные с медиапотреблением. Поскольку в рамках этой работы мы рассматриваем издание The Guardian, считаем важным исследовать в дальнейшем исключительно газетный медиарынок Британии, акцентируя внимание на национальных качественных изданиях. Глобальные изменения медиарынка не повлекли за собой значительных изменений на уровне национального рынка газет. Несомненно, все большую часть рыка СМИ Великобритании завоевывают электронные медиа, передающие информацию посредством кабельных соединений. Несмотря на это, Британский рынок газет держит высокую планку.

description: An important step in a phospholipid membrane pore formation by melittin antimicrobial peptide is a reorientation of the peptide from a surface into a transmembrane conformation. In this work we perform umbrella sampling simulations to calculate the potential of mean force (PMF) for the reorientation of melittin from a surface-bound state to a transmembrane state and provide a molecular level insight into understanding peptide and lipid properties that influence the existence of the free energy barrier. The PMFs were calculated for a peptide to lipid (P/L) ratio of 1/128 and 4/128. We observe that the free energy barrier is reduced when the P/L ratio increased. In addition, we study the cooperative effect; specifically we investigate if the barrier is smaller for a second melittin reorientation, given that another neighboring melittin was already in the transmembrane state. We observe that indeed the barrier of the PMF curve is reduced in this case, thus confirming the presence of a cooperative effect.

description: The evolution of language follows the rule of gradual change. Grammar, vocabulary, and lexical semantic shifts take place over time, resulting in a diachronic linguistic gap. As such, a considerable amount of texts are written in languages of different eras, which creates obstacles for natural language processing tasks, such as word segmentation and machine translation. Although the Chinese language has a long history, previous Chinese natural language processing research has primarily focused on tasks within a specific era. Therefore, we propose a cross-era learning framework for Chinese word segmentation (CWS), CROSSWISE, which uses the Switch-memory (SM) module to incorporate era-specific linguistic knowledge. Experiments on four corpora from different eras show that the performance of each corpus significantly improves. Further analyses also demonstrate that the SM can effectively integrate the knowledge of the eras into the neural network.

ON THE LEGACY OF FREE DIVISORS III: FUNCTIONS AND DIVISORS ON COMPLETE INTERSECTIONS
Creators: name: Damon, James
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: Many of the key properties of (complex) isolated complete intersection singularities are encoded in the discriminants of their versal unfoldings. This includes the Milnor number, monodromy, and deformation properties. An especially important property of discriminants and bifurcation sets which has important consequences for their topology is that they are free divisors, e.g. by the work of Arnold [A1], [A2], Saito [Sa], Looijenga [L], Bruce [Br], Terao [To], etc. Most of these results establishing freeness for both discriminants and bifurcation sets follow from a more general result concerning the freeness of discriminants for KV equivalence, which captures the equivalence of germs of varieties obtained as nonlinear sections of V [D5], [D6]. Furthermore, David Mond and this author [DM], [D2], [D5], [Mo] have shown the fundamental role of freeness for determining the topology of discriminants of mappings, and more generally nonisolated singularities arising as nonlinear sections of free divisors.
Estimation of missing markers in human motion capture

Year: 2006

description: Motion capture is a prevalent technique for capturing and analyzing human articulations. A common problem encountered in motion capture is that some marker positions are often missing due to occlusions or ambiguities. Most methods for completing missing markers may quickly become ineffective and produce unsatisfactory results when a significant portion of markers are missing for extended periods of time. We propose a data-driven, piecewise linear modeling approach to missing marker estimation that is especially beneficial in this scenario. We model motion sequences of a training set with a hierarchy of low-dimensional local linear models characterized by the principal components. For a new sequence with missing markers, we use a pre-trained classifier to identify the most appropriate local linear model for each frame and then recover the missing markers by finding the least squares solutions based on the available marker positions and the principal components of the associated model. Our experimental results demonstrate that our method is efficient in recovering the full-body motion and is robust to heterogeneous motion data.

description: В статье исследуется некоторые синтаксические различия аварских диалектов. Анализируются синтаксические явления диалектов с указанием черт, общих с литературным языком, а также особенностей, не свойственных литературному языку. Для исследования аварского языка роль диалектологии становится еще более значимой, так как диалектные данные являются для него единственным источником, компенсирующим отсутствие письменных памятников. Однако в дагестанской диалектологической литературе нет ни одной работы, специально посвященной синтаксису диалектов. Взаимоотношения между аварскими диалектами, степень их общности и различия определяются не одним признаком, а целым комплексом. Такой подход дает возможность составить более цельное представление об аварских диалектах.

description: The spatial-temporal evolution of the purely transverse current filamentation instability is analyzed by deriving a single partial differential equation for the instability and obtaining the analytical solutions for the spatially and temporally growing current filament mode. When the beam front always encounters fresh plasma, our analysis shows that the instability grows spatially from the beam front to the back up to a certain critical beam length; then the instability acquires a purely temporal growth. This critical beam length increases linearly with time and in the non-relativistic regime it is proportional to the beam velocity. In the relativistic regime the critical length is inversely proportional to the cube of the beam Lorentz factor $γ_{0b}$. Thus, in the ultra-relativistic regime the instability immediately acquires a purely temporal growth all over the beam. The analytical results are in good agreement with multidimensional particle-in-cell simulations performed with OSIRIS. Relevance of current study to recent and future experiments on fireball beams is also addressed.

description: Offloading computation from user devices to nodes with processing capabilities at the edge of the network is a major trend in today's network/service architectures. At the same time, serverless computing has gained a huge traction among the cloud computing technologies and has, thus, promoted the adoption of Function-as-a-Service (FaaS). The latter has some characteristics that make it generally suitable to edge applications, except for its cumbersome support of stateful applications. This work is set to provide a broad view on the options available for supporting stateful FaaS, which are distilled into four reference execution models that differ on where the state resides. While further investigation is needed to advance our understanding of the opportunities offered by in-network computing through stateful FaaS, initial insights are provided by means of a qualitative analysis of the four alternatives and their quantitative comparison in a simulator.

description: Статья посвящена анализу синтаксической связи определения с определяемым словом в дагестанских языках. Синтаксическая связь как способ соединения слов выполняет конструктивную функцию. Благодаря синтаксической связи словосочетание и предложение становятся полноправными языковыми единицами, обладающими формальной и смысловой законченностью. Как правило, синтаксическая связь рассматривается как явление, имеющее определённую форму и содержание. Содержательную сторону синтаксической связи представляют синтаксические отношения. Синтаксическими отношениями считаются соединения слов, частей предложения и самостоятельных предложений в тексте. Обычно синтаксические отношения подразделяют на предикативные, которые осуществляются при связи подлежащего и сказуемого, и непредикативные, среди которых выделяют определительные, объектные и обстоятельственные отношения.

description: Recent alloy development works conducted at Onera for single crystal turbine blade
applications succeeded in identifying specific nickel-based superalloys suited for
very high temperature applications in aircraft engines and for land-based gas turbine
applications in a highly corrosive environment. Various studies concerning the mechanical
behavior of such single crystal superalloys showed significant effects of the
chemical, microstructural and physical characteristics on the deformation mechanisms,
as well as on the creep, tensile and fatigue strength of these materials. Finally,
the interactions between some SC superalloys and their protective coatings were
investigated, in order to evaluate their influence on the mechanical properties and on
the microstructural changes in the coated alloy.

description: We present a novel LOD (level-of-detail) algorithm to accelerate ray tracing of massive models. Our approach computes drastic simplifications of the model and the LODs are well integrated with the kd-tree data structure. We introduce a simple and efficient LOD metric to bound the error for primary and secondary rays. The LOD representation has small runtime overhead and our algorithm can be combined with ray coherence techniques and cache-coherent layouts to improve the performance. In practice, the use of LODs can alleviate aliasing artifacts and improve memory coherence. We implement our algorithm on both 32bit and 64bit machines and able to achieve up to 2-20 times improvement in frame rate of rendering models consisting of tens or hundreds of millions of triangles with little loss in image quality.

региональная идентичность

description: Статья посвящена исследованию особенностей региональной журналистики, проведенному молодыми исследователями Санкт-Петербургского государственного университета. В научной литературе до настоящего времени недостаточно точно определено само понятие «регион». Региональные особенности не раз становились объектом пристального наблюдения исследователей в области журналистики. В России это особенно актуально, так как огромная площадь страны включает в себя 85 регионов (субъектов, что формирует идентичность региона, что в перспективе может привести к его изоляции в будущем. В статье даются данные о возможной аудитории дальневосточного региона. Описываются взаимоотношения жителей региона с Китайской Народной республикой. Интересы КНР на русском Дальнем Востоке не возникли в современный период. Часть территорий китайские обыватели воспринимают как незаслуженно утерянные.

description: Developing thermal barrier coatings operating at higher temperature and/or for very
long durations (commercial aircraft applications) is one of the technological and
economic challenges for engine manufacturers. This includes the search for (i)low
thermal conductivity, high thermal stability and CMAS resistant ceramic top coats, and
(ii)alternative low cost bond coats with improved oxidation resistance and chemical
compatibility with the substrate. This paper reviews the rationale supporting the choice
of new materials for each layer and presents some recommendations to develop more
robust and more efficient systems with increased lifetime.

title: Processing and Characterization of TiAl-based Alloys: Towards an Industrial Scale
Creators: name: Thomas, M.
name: Bacos, M.-P.
Publisher: name: ONERA
Year: 2011

description: This paper highlights Onera efforts focused on the design of new TiAl-based alloys,
the development of a commercially-viable route for the manufacture of aero engine
components and the optimization of mechanical properties. The alloy G4, with a duplex
microstructure, has been developed with an excellent balance of properties for gas
turbine applications up to 800°C. Additionally, a series of TiAl-3(Fe,Zr,Mo) alloys have
been designed for applications with good ductility requirements. Since these alloys
were developed for the casting route, results show that the minimization of subsequent
heat treatments is required for property scatter reduction. Alternatively, the Powder
Metallurgy (PM) route was explored with the aim of establishing well defined microstructure-
property relationships. Moreover, microstructural changes and related phase
transformations were fully clarified in the now well known 47-2-2 alloy. This thorough
understanding then enabled us to optimize the microstructure of the 47-2-2 alloy via
process parameters, in order to meet industrial requirements in terms of tensile, creep,
and fatigue properties. Furthermore, in the last three years, alternative PM processing
routes, by means of Spark Plasma Sintering and Direct Metal Deposition processes,
were found to provide enhanced tensile properties. Finally, structural factors such as
the surface-related embrittlement and the formation of oxide scales that occurs on the
degradation of mechanical properties, and in turn on the temperature limitations of the
TiAl-based alloys, were identified. Different approaches aimed at improving the oxidation/
corrosion resistance are then described to achieve a better environmental durability
for TiAl-based alloys.
