description: Nutrient gradients and limitations play a pivotal role in the life of all microbes, both in their natural habitat as well as in artificial, microfluidic systems. Spatial concentration gradients of nutrients in densely packed cell configurations may locally affect the bacterial growth leading to heterogeneous micropopulations. A detailed understanding and quantitative modelling of cellular behaviour under nutrient limitations is thus highly desirable. We use microfluidic cultivations to investigate growth and microbial behaviour of the model organism Corynebacterium glutamicum under well-controlled conditions. With a reaction-diffusion type model, parameters are extracted from steady-state experiments with a one-dimensional nutrient gradient. Subsequentially, we employ particle-based simulations with these parameters to predict the dynamical growth of a colony in two dimensions. Comparing the results of those simulations with microfluidic experiments yields excellent agreement. Our modelling approach lays the foundation for a better understanding of dynamic microbial growth processes, both in nature and in applied biotechnology.

description: The collective behavior of active semiflexible filaments is studied with a model of tangentially driven self-propelled worm-like chains. The combination of excluded-volume interactions and self-propulsion leads to several distinct dynamic phases as a function of bending rigidity, activity, and aspect ratio of individual filaments. We consider first the case of intermediate filament density. For high-aspect-ratio filaments, we identify a transition with increasing propulsion from a state of free-swimming filaments to a state of spiraled filaments with nearly frozen translational motion. For lower aspect ratios, this gas-of-spirals phase is suppressed with growing density due to filament collisions; instead, filaments form clusters similar to self-propelled rods, as activity increases. Finite bending rigidity strongly effects the dynamics and phase behavior. Flexible filaments form small and transient clusters, while stiffer filaments organize into giant clusters, similarly as self-propelled rods, but with a reentrant phase behavior from giant to smaller clusters as activity becomes large enough to bend the filaments. For high filament densities, we identify a nearly frozen jamming state at low activities, a nematic laning state at intermediate activities, and an active-turbulence state at high activities. The latter state is characterized by a power-law decay of the energy spectrum as a function of wave number. The resulting phase diagrams encapsulate tunable non-equilibrium steady states that can be used in the organization of living matter.

description: The Multiparticle Collision Dynamics technique (MPC) for hydrodynamics simulations is generalized to binary fluid mixtures and multiphase flows, by coupling the particle-based fluid dynamics to a Ginzburg-Landau free-energy functional for phase-separating binary fluids. To describe fluids with a non-ideal equation of state, an additional density-dependent term is introduced. The new approach is verified by applying it to thermodynamics near the critical demixing point, and interface fluctuations of droplets. The interfacial tension obtained from the analysis of the capillary wave spectrum agrees well with the results based on the Laplace-Young equation. Phase-separation dynamics follows the Lifshitz-Slyozov law.

description: A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo discutir os impactos emocionais gerados na mulher em decorrência da violência doméstica. A metodologia utilizada foi de caráter qualitativo, classificada como sendo Exploratória e Transversal. O trabalho buscou ressaltar que a violência contra as mulheres pode vir a ser uma forma de expressão das relações sociais estabelecidas em torno da questão de gênero e que podem vir esta alicerçada no sistema patriarcal, no qual naturaliza a supremacia masculina atribuindo socialmente às mulheres o papel de submissão e obediência. Nessa perspectiva essa pesquisa objetivou analisar os impactos emocionais gerados na mulher vítima de agressão. A pesquisa foi realizada na cidade de Mossoró no estado do Rio Grande do Norte, município o qual manifesta compromisso na ampliação de medidas de proteção as vítimas de violência doméstica, através de projetos de prevenção e rede de proteção ao combate à violência contra as mulheres. Portanto, a realização da presente pesquisa partiu da necessidade de estudos voltados para a temática sobre a importância da análise dos impactos emocionais, no qual, visa contribuir e promover para a sociedade uma visão elaborada e consciente sobre essa temática. Com isso, observou-se que as entrevistadas relataram sentimento de medo e culpa e não reconhecimento de si mesmas. Sendo possível destacar que houve impactos emocionais, bem como, ansiedade e depressão na vida dessas mulheres. Assim, acredita-se que a presente pesquisa alcançou seu objetivo de analisar os impactos emocionais gerados na mulher vítima de agressão doméstica.

description: We investigate an AND-OR tree T and a probability distribution d on the truth assignments to the leaves. Tarsi (1983) showed that if d is an independent and identical distribution (IID) such that probability of a leaf having value 0 is neither 0 nor 1 then, under a certain assumptions, there exists an optimal algorithm that is depth-first. We investigate the case where d is an independent distribution (ID) and probability depends on each leaf. It is known that in this general case, if height is greater than or equal to 3, Tarsi-type result does not hold. It is also known that for a complete binary tree of height 2, Tarsi-type result certainly holds. In this paper, we ask whether Tarsi-type result holds for an AND-OR tree of height 2. Here, a child node of the root is either an OR-gate or a leaf: The number of child nodes of an internal node is arbitrary, and depends on an internal node. We give an affirmative answer. Our strategy of the proof is to reduce the problem to the case of directional algorithms. We perform induction on the number of leaves, and modify Tarsi's method to suite height 2 trees. We discuss why our proof does not apply to height 3 trees.

description: The spatiotemporal dynamics in systems of active self-propelled particles is controlled by the propulsion mechanism in combination with various direct interactions, such as steric repulsion, hydrodynamics, and chemical fields. Yet, these direct interactions are typically anisotropic, and come in different 'flavors', such as spherical and elongated particle shapes for steric repulsion, pusher and puller flow fields for hydrodynamics, etc. The combination of the various aspects is expected to lead to new emergent behavior. However, it is a priori not evident whether shape and hydrodynamics act synergistically or antagonistically to generate motility-induced clustering (MIC) and phase separation (MIPS). We employ a model of prolate spheroidal microswimmers - called squirmers - in quasi-two-dimensional confinement to address this issue by mesoscale hydrodynamic simulations. For comparison, non-hydrodynamic active Brownian particles (ABPs) are considered to elucidate the contribution of hydrodynamic interactions on MIC and MIPS. For spherical particles, the comparison between ABP and hydrodynamic-squirmer ensembles reveals a suppression of MIPS due to hydrodynamic interactions. The fundamental difference between ABPs and squirmers is attributed to an increased reorientation of squirmers by hydrodynamic torques during their collisions. In contrast, for elongated squirmers, hydrodynamics interactions enhance MIPS. Thus, hydrodynamic interactions show opposing effects on MIPS for spherical and elongated microswimmers.

description: Mechanical forces influence the dynamics of growing tissues. Computer simulations are employed to study the importance of interfacial effects in tissue competition. It was speculated that mechanical pressure determines the competition, where the determining quantity is the homeostatic pressure - the pressure where division and apoptosis balance; the tissue with the higher homeostatic pressure overwhelms the other. Surprisingly, a weaker tissue can persist in stable coexistence with a stronger tissue, if adhesion between them is small enough. An analytic continuum description can quantitatively describe the underlying mechanism and reproduce the resulting pressures and cell-number fractions. Computer simulations furthermore display a variety of coexisting structures, ranging from spherical inclusions to a bicontinuous state.

description: Menschen mit kognitiven und kommunikativen Beeinträchtigungen bilden laut Statistiken häufig selbstverletzendes Verhalten aus, welches meist im Kindesalter auftritt, langanhaltend ist und sich lebensbedrohend entwickeln kann. Die Autorin Jolanda Fehr hat sich in der Bachelorarbeit «Unterstützte Kommunikation als Hilfsmittel bei herausfordernden Verhaltensweisen» mit der These befasst, dass der gezielte Einsatz von Unterstützter Kommunikation Menschen mit kognitiver Beeinträchtigung zur Reduzierung heraufordernder Verhaltensweisen verhilft. Dazu werden wichtige Begriffe wie «Menschen mit kognitiver Beeinträchtigung», «Kommunikation», «Unterstützte Kommunikation» sowie «herausfordernde Verhaltensweisen» definiert. Zusammenhänge zwischen fehlender Lautsprache und herausfordernden Verhaltensweisen werden dargestellt, aus denen Methoden der Unterstützten Kommunikation abgeleitet werden, die Professionelle der Sozialen Arbeit in der Praxis befähigen, herausfordernden Verhaltensweisen konkret begegnen zu können. Nach einer kritischen Abwägung von Chancen und Risiken ergeben sich Voraussetzungen an Fachkräfte sowie Organisationen, die zu gelingender Anwendung von UK und somit zur Reduzierung herausfordernder Verhaltensweisen beitragen. Die Arbeit soll sensibilisieren und die Relevanz von Unterstützter Kommunikation aufzeigen.

description: Adherent cells exert traction forces on to their environment, which allows them to migrate, to maintain tissue integrity, and to form complex multicellular structures. This traction can be measured in a perturbation-free manner with traction force microscopy (TFM). In TFM, traction is usually calculated via the solution of a linear system, which is complicated by undersampled input data, acquisition noise, and large condition numbers for some methods. Therefore, standard TFM algorithms either employ data filtering or regularization. However, these approaches require a manual selection of filter- or regularization parameters and consequently exhibit a substantial degree of subjectiveness. This shortcoming is particularly serious when cells in different conditions are to be compared because optimal noise suppression needs to be adapted for every situation, which invariably results in systematic errors. Here, we systematically test the performance of new methods from computer vision and Bayesian inference for solving the inverse problem in TFM. We compare two classical schemes, L1- and L2-regularization, with three previously untested schemes, namely Elastic Net regularization, Proximal Gradient Lasso, and Proximal Gradient Elastic Net. Overall, we find that Elastic Net regularization, which combines L1 and L2 regularization, outperforms all other methods with regard to accuracy of traction reconstruction. Next, we develop two methods, Bayesian L2 regularization and Advanced Bayesian L2 regularization, for automatic, optimal L2 regularization. Using artificial data and experimental data, we show that these methods enable robust reconstruction of traction without requiring a difficult selection of regularization parameters specifically for each data set. Thus, Bayesian methods can mitigate the considerable uncertainty inherent in comparing cellular traction forces.

description: One-sided communication is a useful paradigm for irregular parallel applications, but most one-sided programming environments, including MPI's one-sided interface and PGAS programming languages, lack application level libraries to support these applications. We present the Berkeley Container Library, a set of generic, cross-platform, high-performance data structures for irregular applications, including queues, hash tables, Bloom filters and more. BCL is written in C++ using an internal DSL called the BCL Core that provides one-sided communication primitives such as remote get and remote put operations. The BCL Core has backends for MPI, OpenSHMEM, GASNet-EX, and UPC++, allowing BCL data structures to be used natively in programs written using any of these programming environments. Along with our internal DSL, we present the BCL ObjectContainer abstraction, which allows BCL data structures to transparently serialize complex data types while maintaining efficiency for primitive types. We also introduce the set of BCL data structures and evaluate their performance across a number of high-performance computing systems, demonstrating that BCL programs are competitive with hand-optimized code, even while hiding many of the underlying details of message aggregation, serialization, and synchronization.

Joseph Akeroyd: rediscovering a prison reformer
Creators: name: Wilson, Ronald
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024

description: School teacher Joseph Akeroyd was appointed Inspector General of Victoria’s prisons in 1924. He held this role until 1947 becoming the longest serving Inspector General in Victoria’s history. However Akeroyd’s reform and legacies were recognised only in part. Examination of his private papers within the context of popular criminological theories demonstrated that Akeroyd single-mindedly pursued a positivist agenda to reform approaches to prison and prisoner management. Akeroyd’s fought private and public battles in his drive to reform in the areas of education in prisons, classification, sentencing and punishment.

The examination of Akeroyd’s influence in shaping prison and prisoner management reform in Victoria and the processes he used unearthed three broad key discoveries; there was significant reform activity in the Victorian prison system in which Joseph Akeroyd was pivotal in his role as Inspector General at that time; there was robust public debate about differing ways to manage crime and criminality; and there was an emergence of criminological thinking predating trends in USA and UK many years later. These discoveries contradicted previous claims there was little or no prison and prisoner management reform in this period. It is clear Joseph Akeroyd played a central role in laying foundation for long term prison and prisoner management legacies through his education led reform.

This study provides a fresh perspective on the nature and extent of transparent and opaque reform in prison and prisoner management in Victoria in the period 1924 – 1947 under Akeroyd’s education inspired leadership. Through access to his personal documentation, Akeroyd’s role in establishing Victoria’s unique relationship between education and prison management can now be recognised and acknowledged.

description: Self-propulsion and navigation due to the sensing of environmental conditions - such as durotaxis and chemotaxis - are remarkable properties of biological cells that cannot be reproduced by single-component self-propelled particles. We introduce and study "flexocytes", deformable vesicles with enclosed attached self-propelled pushing and pulling filaments that align due to steric and membrane-mediated interactions. Using computer simulations in two dimensions, we show that the membrane deforms under the propulsion forces and forms shapes mimicking motile biological cells, such as keratocytes and neutrophils. When interacting with walls or with interfaces between different substrates, the internal structure of a flexocyte adapts, resulting in a preferred angle of reflection or deflection, respectively. We predict a correlation between motility patterns, shapes, characteristics of the internal forces, and the response to micropatterned substrates and external stimuli. We propose that engineered flexocytes with desired mechanosensitive capabilities enable the construction of soft-matter robots.

description: The stress of a fluid on a confining wall is given by the mechanical wall forces, independent of the nature of the fluid being passive or active. At thermal equilibrium, an equation of state exists and stress is likewise obtained from intrinsic bulk properties; even more, stress can be calculated locally. Comparable local descriptions for active systems require a particular consideration of active forces. Here, we derive expressions for the stress exerted on a local volume of a systems of spherical active Brownian particles (ABPs). Using the virial theorem, we obtain two identical stress expressions, a stress due to momentum flux across a hypothetical plane, and a bulk stress inside of the local volume. In the first case, we obtain an active contribution to momentum transport in analogy to momentum transport in an underdamped passive system, and we introduce an active momentum. In the second case, a generally valid expression for the swim stress is derived. By simulations, we demonstrate that the local bulk stress is identical to the wall stress of a confined system for both, non-interacting ABPs as well as ABPs with excluded-volume interactions. This underlines the existence of an equation of state for a system of spherical ABPs. Most importantly, our calculations demonstrated that active stress is not a wall (boundary) effect, but is caused by momentum transport. We demonstrate that the derived stress expression permits the calculation of the local stress in inhomogeneous systems of ABPs.

description: Motor proteins drive persistent motion and self-organisation of cytoskeletal filaments. However, state-of-the-art microscopy techniques and continuum modelling approaches focus on large length and time scales. Here, we perform component-based computer simulations of polar filaments and molecular motors linking microscopic interactions and activity to self-organisation and dynamics from the two-filament level up to the mesoscopic domain level. Dynamic filament crosslinking and sliding, and excluded-volume interactions promote formation of bundles at small densities, and of active polar nematics at high densities. A buckling-type instability sets the size of polar domains and the density of topological defects. We predict a universal scaling of the active diffusion coefficient and the domain size with activity, and its dependence on parameters like motor concentration and filament persistence length. Our results provide a microscopic understanding of cytoplasmic streaming in cells and help to develop design strategies for novel engineered active materials.

description: Deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) microfluidic devices promise versatile and precise processing of biological samples. However, this prospect has been realized so far only for rigid spherical particles and remains limited for biological cells due to the complexity of cell dynamics and deformation in microfluidic flow. We employ mesoscopic hydrodynamics simulations of red blood cells (RBC) in DLD devices with circular posts to better understand the interplay between cell behavior in complex microfluidic flow and sorting capabilities of such devices. We construct a mode diagram of RBC behavior (e.g. displacement, zig-zagging, and intermediate modes) and identify several regimes of RBC dynamics (e.g. tumbling, tank-treading, and trilobe motion). Furthermore, we link the complex interaction dynamics of RBCs with the post to their effective cell size and discuss relevant physical mechanisms governing the dynamic cell states. In conclusion, sorting of RBCs in DLD devices based on their shear elasticity is in general possible, but requires fine-tuning of flow conditions to targeted mechanical properties of the RBCs.

description: Bgee is a database to retrieve and compare gene expression patterns in multiple animal species, produced from multiple data types (RNA-Seq, Affymetrix, in situ hybridization, and EST data). It is based exclusively on curated healthy wild-type expression data (e.g., no gene knock-out, no treatment, no disease), to provide a comparable reference of normal gene expression. Data are then integrated and made comparable between species thanks to the use of dedicated curation and ontology tools. Bgee currently includes 29 animal species and is available at http://bgee.org/. We will present BgeeDB, an R package to use Bgee. It includes a collection of functions to import into R the normalized and annotated expression data. BgeeDB facilitates downstream analyses, such as gene expression analyses with other Bioconductor packages. Moreover, BgeeDB includes a new gene set enrichment test for preferred localization of expression of genes in anatomical structures (“TopAnat”). The novelty of TopAnat is that the terms tested are from the Uberon anatomical ontology, and that all associations between genes and ontology terms are experimentally supported. Along with the classical Gene Ontology enrichment test, this test provides a complementary way to interpret gene lists.http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/BgeeDB/ Komljenovic A, Roux J, Robinson-Rechavi M and Bastian FB.

description: Simulations of nano- to micro-meter scale fluidic systems under thermal gradients require consistent mesoscopic methods accounting for both hydrodynamic interactions and proper transport of energy. One such method is dissipative particle dynamics with energy conservation (DPDE), which has been used for various fluid systems with non-uniform temperature distributions. Despite the success of the method, existing integration algorithms have shown to result in an undesired energy drift, putting into question whether the DPDE method properly captures properties of real fluids. We propose a modification of the velocity-Verlet algorithm with local energy conservation for each DPDE particle, such that the total energy is conserved up to machine precision. Furthermore, transport properties of a DPDE fluid are analyzed in detail. In particular, an analytical approximation for the thermal conductivity coefficient is derived, which allows the selection of a specific value a priori. Finally, we provide approximate expressions for the dimensionless Prandtl and Schmidt numbers, which characterize fluid transport properties and can be adjusted independently by a proper selection of model parameters, and therefore, made comparable with those of real fluids. In conclusion, our results strengthen the DPDE method as a very robust approach for the investigation of mesoscopic systems with temperature inhomogeneities.

description: This article explores the pedagogical strategies and educational significance of studying the composition, aggregate states, and cycle of water in nature within the context of teaching chemistry. Water, as a fundamental component of Earth’s systems, plays a crucial role in various chemical processes and environmental phenomena. By understanding the molecular composition of water, its different states—solid, liquid, and gas—and its continuous cycle through the environment, students gain essential insights into broader chemical principles and environmental science. This study reviews effective teaching methodologies, including hands-on experiments, interactive simulations, and integrative cross-disciplinary approaches, to enhance students' comprehension and engagement. The findings highlight the importance of a comprehensive and experiential approach to teaching these topics, ultimately fostering a deeper appreciation of chemistry and environmental stewardship among students.

title: Polen 1989 im Spiegel der österreichischen Tageszeitung "Der Standard"
Creators: name: Leutzendorff, Veronika
Year: 2009

description: Diese Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit den Veränderungen in Polen im Jahr 1989. Als Quellen dienen hierzu einerseits Bücher und auf der anderen Seite alle Ausgaben des Jahres 1989 der österreichischen Tageszeitung Der Standard. Bei der Auswertung wird sowohl qualitativ, als auch vor allem quantitativ vorgegangen. Mit folgenden drei Themenkomplexen setzt sich die Arbeit auseinander: Die Geschichte Polens in Europa Der Standard im Jahr 1989 über Polen Historische Rückblicke im Vergleich Das erste Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit Anknüpfungspunkten der polnischen Geschichte an die europäische. Es wurden durchaus einige Punkte gefunden, in denen Polens Geschichte an Europa gebunden war, sodass Polen nach der Wende eine Rückkehr nach Europa möglich war. Im zweiten Kapitel, das sich mit der Berichterstattung des Standard im Jahr 1989 über Polen beschäftigt, wurde festgestellt, dass drei Ereignissen besonders viel Aufmerksamkeit zukamen: den Gesprächen am Runden Tisch, den ersten halbfreien Wahlen, die zur ersten nicht-kommunistischen Regierung führten und den wirtschaftlichen Hilfeleistungen aus dem Westen. Besonders deutlich werden diese Schwerpunkte bei der quantitativen Auswertung der Berichterstattung des Standard. Der Vergleich, welcher im dritten Kapitel angestellt wurde, zeigte, dass insgesamt wenig Rückblick in die Geschichte Polens gehalten wurde. Sowohl in den Zeitungen, als auch in Büchern wird nicht oft an die Vergangenheit angeknüpft. Wenn ein Rückblick vorgenommen wird, so reicht dieser meist nicht über das 20. Jahrhundert hinaus. Dennoch erfolgte an einigen Stellen ein Rückblick. Der generelle Unterschied zwischen der Berichterstattung des Standard und den Rückblicken von Historikern liegt darin, dass der Standard sich auf einzelne Ereignisse der Vergangenheit bezieht und Historiker auf einen Zustand zurück verweisen. Insgesamt kann sowohl die Quellenlage als auch die Information über das Thema als ausreichend bezeichnet werde, sodass eine ausführliche Aufarbeitung des Themas möglich war.

description: Selective catalytic reduction technology effectively controls nitrogen oxide emissions from coal-fired power plants. In denitrification systems, exceeding nitrogen oxide emissions and excessive local pressure drop are common issues. Numerical simulation methods are used in this study to optimize the flow field to enhance denitrification efficiency and reduce pollutant emissions. Specifically, four deflector plate schemes for the variable-section flue duct segment are proposed. In actual retrofitting, the optimization scheme led to a reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions from 97.3 mg/Nm3 to 48.6 mg/Nm3 and an increase in the outlet pressure of the denitrification system from −3000 Pa to −2959 Pa, resulting in a 41 Pa decrease in local pressure drop. This optimization will further reduce pollutant emissions from power plants and the power consumption of induced draft fans.

description: The evolution of various competing cell types in tissues, and the resulting persistent tissue population, is studied numerically and analytically in a particle-based model of active tissues. Mutations change the properties of cells in various ways, including their mechanical properties. Each mutation results in an advantage or disadvantage to grow in the competition between different cell types. While changes in signaling processes and biochemistry play an important role, we focus on changes in the mechanical properties by studying the result of variation of growth force and adhesive cross-interactions between cell types. For independent mutations of growth force and adhesion strength, the tissue evolves towards cell types with high growth force and low internal adhesion strength, as both increase the homeostatic pressure. Motivated by biological evidence, we postulate a coupling between both parameters, such that an increased growth force comes at the cost of a higher internal adhesion strength or vice versa. This tradeoff controls the evolution of the tissue, ranging from unidirectional evolution to very heterogeneous and dynamic populations. The special case of two competing cell types reveals three distinct parameter regimes: Two in which one cell type outcompetes the other, and one in which both cell types coexist in a highly mixed state. Interestingly, a single mutated cell alone suffices to reach the mixed state, while a finite mutation rate affects the results only weakly. Finally, the coupling between changes in growth force and adhesion strength reveals a mechanical explanation for the evolution towards intra-tumor heterogeneity, in which multiple species coexist even under a constant evolutianary pressure.
