description: In this work, the influence of different pulse widths (25, 50 and 100 μs) during high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) of copper, silver and zirconium was investigated in terms of plasma properties and properties of combinatorial composition gradient CuAgZr film libraries. In situ plasma diagnostics via optical emission spectroscopy (OES), time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS), and modified quartz crystal microbalance (m-QCM), followed by film ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigations allowed to determine the effect of deposition parameters on the thin films' microstructural changes. Changing the pulse width, while keeping the duty cycle constant, modified the discharge composition in the target region and the ionised fraction of the sputtered species in the substrate region. The maximum Cu ionised fraction (19 %) was found for 50 μs, resulting in compact and smooth morphology for Cu-rich films, whereas short 25 μs pulses provided porous columnar films with rough surfaces, as the result from Ar+ bombardment. For Ag-rich films, Ag segregation allowed the deposition of dense layers, regardless of the used pulse width. Furthermore, low Ag (<10 at.%) CuAgZr films produced via HiPIMS and direct-current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) were compared in terms of structural and mechanical property changes as a function of Zr contents. For the studied chemical composition range, a linear relationship between Zr content, XRD phase shift and mechanical properties was observed for HiPIMS films, in contrast to DCMS's more abrupt transitions. An increase in hardness and elastic modulus (up to 44 % and 22 %, respectively) was found for the HiPIMS films compared to DCMS ones. The obtained results highlight HiPIMS's flexibility in providing a wide range of tailoring possibilities to meet specific application requirements, such as crystalline microstructure, density and associated mechanical properties.

description: Water soluble macromers are modified by addition of free radical polymerizable groups, such as those containing a carbon-carbon double or triple bond, which can be polymerized under mild conditions to encapsulate tissues, cells, or biologically active materials. The polymeric materials are particularly useful as tissue adhesives, coatings for tissue lumens including blood vessels, coatings for cells such as islets of Langerhans, coatings, plugs, supports or substrates for contact with biological materials such as the body, and as drug delivery devices for biologically active molecules.

description: In our paper, we discuss how the digital domain extends the sustainability of analogue archives through communication with the public. Our interdisciplinary research project "Participatory Knowledge Practices in Analogue and Digital Image Archives" (PIA) is funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (2021–2025) and developed in cooperation with the photographic archives of the Swiss Society for Folklore Studies (SSFS). It aims to increase the use of image-based research data by developing participatory tools and deploying shared application programming interfaces (APIs) such as standards that adhere to the Linked Open Usable Data (LOUD) design principles. By involving the public, the project aims to increase the overall use of image-based research data. This makes data more sustainable in interaction with the analogue archive and increases the attractiveness of digital infrastructures.

description: Inverters of large heat pumps in an urban low voltage grid generate current harmonics and cause consequently significant variations of the respective voltage harmonics. The voltage level at each grid point is not only influenced by the operation of such inverters, but higher harmonic voltage amplitudes can be expected, caused by the sum of all loads in the grid. The paper provides a comprehensive harmonic analysis of a typical urban distribution grid including heat pumps and presents insights on the variations and impact on the voltage profile of the 15th harmonic currents. An active harmonic filter was installed to enhance the power quality, by compensating the harmonic currents and by improving the voltage profile at grid points close-by the heat pumps.

description: Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of correlates on physical activity (PA) during physical education (PE). Method: One hundred and ninety children (11.2 ± 0.8 y, 1.5 ± 0.1 m, 37.7 ± 8.3 kg) of 12 classes participated. Children were asked to wear an accelerometer for seven days. Teachers filled in a questionnaire to collect data about correlates of PA during PE (i.e. sex, weight, age of children, daily PA of the children, class size, PA behavior and formation of the teacher and size of gym). Correlates for moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) during PE were determined using multifactor linear regression analysis. Results Fifty-three percent of the variability of MVPA during PE was explained by the investigated correlates. Apart from individual correlates (sex, weight, age), PE taught in small classes and large gyms by a PE specialist and a high overall PA of the child had independent positive effects on MVPA during PE. Conclusion: The results underline the importance of small PE classes taught by specialized PE teachers in large gyms and the increase of overall PA of children for effective future intervention studies and for political discussion focusing on increasing PA during PE.

Dystus villosus Breddin, 1904a: 153. Syntype (s): ♀, Bolivia; depository not given. Dystus villosus: Schouteden 1904: 54 (synonymy).
Type material examined. Lectotype (present designation): ♀, “ Bolivia \ Yungas de la \ Paz” [hw], “coll. \ Breddin”. Pinned, segments III–IV of left antenna lacking; deposited in SDEI (Figs. 1–3).
Discussion. The species was described based on an unspecified number of females from Bolivia. The depository of its type material has remained unknown so far. A single female belonging to the genus Dystus Stål, 1862 was found among unidentified scutellerids in SDEI. As it perfectly fits the original description of D. villosus and it is from the type locality, there is no doubt that it is a syntype and it is therefore designated as the lectotype of D. villosus.
The species was synonymized with D. puberulus Stål, 1862 by Schouteden (1904); we confirm the synonymy of the two species. The genus Dystus is currently monotypic; a photo of the only included species was given by Eger et al. (2015), ink drawings and descriptions of the adult and all preimaginal stages as well as the genital capsule and parameres of the male were provided by Cervantes Peredo (2004). The latter work also documents its host plant and life cycle.
Current status. Junior subjective synonym of Dystus puberulus Stål, 1862.

description: A broadband light source with a sufficiently long coherence length is impinged on the optical cavity. The broadband laser light reflects from the first and second surfaces of the cavity. The two light beams, either reflected or transmitted, are phase shifted from one another by an amount proportional to the optical path length of the cavity and inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light (4πnd/λ) The two light beams interfere with each other and form a modulated light beam that has a spectrum approximately like the laser's broadband spectrum multiplied by a cosine with a frequency 4πnd/λ. The modulated light beam is coupled to a spectrometer that measures the intensity of the light as a function of wavelength over a range of wavelengths. The Fourier transform of the spectrum contains a peak that is related to the OPL and is located at 2*n*d where n*d is the OPL.

description: Background: Both environmental and social factors have been linked to birth weight and adiposity at birth, but few studies consider the effects of exposure mixtures. Our objective was to identify which components of a mixture of neighborhood-level environmental and social exposures were driving associations with birth weight and adiposity at birth in the Healthy Start cohort. Methods: Exposures were assessed at the census tract level and included air pollution, built environment characteristics, and socioeconomic status. Prenatal exposures were assigned based on address at enrollment. Birth weight was measured at delivery and adiposity was measured using air displacement plethysmography within three days. We used non-parametric Bayes shrinkage (NPB) to identify exposures that were associated with our outcomes of interest. NPB models were compared to single-predictor linear regression. We also included generalized additive models (GAM) to assess nonlinear relationships. All regression models were adjusted for individual-level covariates, including maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, and smoking. Results: Results from NPB models showed most exposures were negatively associated with birth weight, though credible intervals were wide and generally contained zero. However, the NPB model identified an interaction between ozone and temperature on birth weight, and the GAM suggested potential non-linear relationships. For associations between ozone or temperature with birth weight, we observed effect modification by maternal race/ethnicity, where effects were stronger for mothers who identified as a race or ethnicity other than non-Hispanic White. No associations with adiposity at birth were observed. Conclusions: NPB identified prenatal exposures to ozone and temperature as predictors of birth weight, and mothers who identify as a race or ethnicity other than non-Hispanic White might be disproportionately impacted. However, NPB models may have limited applicability when non-linear effects are present. Future work should consider a two-stage approach where NPB is used to reduce dimensionality and alternative approaches examine non-linear effects.

Lobothyreus breviceps Breddin, 1914: 54. Syntype (s): Peru; depository not given. Lobothyreus breviceps: Eger et al. 2015: 762 (distribution).
Type material examined. Lobothyreus breviceps Breddin, 1914. Lectotype (present designation): ♂, “ Peru \ Amazonas” [light blue, hw], “Lobothyreus \ ?? an \ nov. gen?” [Breddin’s hw], “coll. \ Breddin”. Mounted on card (removed for photographing, re-mounted on a new card, the original card pinned with the specimen), left antennal segment IV, segments II–III of left fore and hind tarsi, right fore tarsus lacking; deposited in SDEI (Figs. 4–6).
Discussion. The species was described based on an unspecified number of specimens from “ Peru (Amazonas)”, with no indication of their sex. The specimen has apparently never been cited by subsequent authors and the depository of its type material has remained unknown so far. A single male belonging to the genus Lobothyreus Mayr, 1864 was found among unidentified scutellerids in SDEI. As it perfectly fits the original description of L. breviceps and it is from the type locality, there is no doubt that it is a syntype and it is therefore designated as the lectotype of L. breviceps.
The genus Lobothyreus Mayr, 1864 contains six described species of which currently four are considered as valid (Kirkaldy 1909, Breddin 1914). A revision of the genus is currently in preparation by JEE in collaboration with A. Barcellos. Lobothyreus breviceps is therefore tentatively recognized as a valid species in the present paper. Current status. Lobothyreus breviceps Breddin, 1914, valid species.

 Mimagoniates Regan, 1907: 402 [type species: Mimagoniates barberi Regan (1907: 402) by monotypy].
 Coelurichthys Miranda-Ribeiro, 1908: unpaginated; type species: Coelurichthys iporangae Miranda-Ribeiro, 1908: unpaginated (by monotypy).
 Coalurichthys Miranda-Ribeiro, 1908: unpaginated; misspelling for Coelurichthys.
 Diagnosis. All glandulocaudine species belonging to Mimagoniates have either a rudimentary or a fully developed caudal fin-ray pump (Figs. 32, 38, 47, 58, 67, 75, and 85) not present in the other two genera, in which principal caudal-fin rays 11 and 12 are not modified (Lophiobrycon, fig. 4 in Castro et al., 2003) or just decurved but not forming a pump (Glandulocauda, Figs. 15 and 25). Additionally Mimagoniates can be distinguished from these two genera by having the dorsal-fin origin posterior to vertical through anal-fin origin (Figs. 31, 36, 45, 53, 63, 70, and 78). In Lophiobrycon (Figs. 3 and 4) the dorsal-fin origin is anterior to vertical through anal-fin origin and closer to snout tip than to caudal-fin base and in Glandulocauda (Figs. 11-12 and 20-21) the dorsal-fin origin is slightly ahead of vertical through anal-fin origin. Also, in Mimagoniates adult males have no more than 1 hook on anal-fin rays that bear hooks, although sometimes 2 hooks might be present on anterior most branched ray and 3 on longest unbranched anterior ray (Figs. 33, 39, 50, 56, 65, 73, and 81) whereas in Glandulocauda species more than one hook are present on anal-fin rays that bear hooks (Figs. 16 and 26).

description: Objectives Electromyography (EMG) is a well-established method to quantify the relative pelvic floor muscle (PFM) activity. PFM EMG has shown good reliability in healthy women. However, its reliability has not been tested in women with PFM dysfunction. The reliability of EMG analysis methods concerning EMG normalization needs to be determined to assess specific therapeutic interventions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the intra-session reliability of PFM EMG variables by using 3 different analysis methods in women with PFM dysfunction. Methods EMG data analysis involved women who were healthy, had weak PFM and had stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We evaluated the reliability of EMG during rest and maximum voluntary contraction and compared muscle activity onset by visual determination and by calculation. All variables were checked for normality (Shapiro-Wilk). Descriptive statistics (mean, SD), systematic error within repeated measures (Wilcoxon) and reliability indexes were tested and presented descriptively (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC], standard error of measurement [SEM], SEM%, minimal difference [MD], MD%). Results For 20 women who were healthy, 17 with weak PFM and 50 with SUI, ICC values were high for all variables (0.780–0.994), and SEM and MD values were relatively high (SEM%: 7.5–15.7; MD%: 21.0–43.8). Conclusion We need reliable methods to analyse clinical intervention studies. PFM EMG variables had high ICCs, but relatively high SEM and MD values modified the reliability. All EMG analysis methods were comparable in healthy women, but only the visual-onset determination was dependable in women with PFM dysfunction.

description: Background: When evaluating the impact of environmental exposures on human health, study designs often include a series of repeated measurements. The goal is to determine whether populations have different trajectories of the environmental exposure over time. Power analyses for longitudinal mixed models require multiple inputs, including clinically significant differences, standard deviations, and correlations of measurements. Further, methods for power analyses of longitudinal mixed models are complex and often challenging for the non-statistician. We discuss methods for extracting clinically relevant inputs from literature, and explain how to conduct a power analysis that appropriately accounts for longitudinal repeated measures. Finally, we provide careful recommendations for describing complex power analyses in a concise and clear manner. Methods: For longitudinal studies of health outcomes from environmental exposures, we show how to [1] conduct a power analysis that aligns with the planned mixed model data analysis, [2] gather the inputs required for the power analysis, and [3] conduct repeated measures power analysis with a highly-cited, validated, free, point-and-click, web-based, open source software platform which was developed specifically for scientists. Results: As an example, we describe the power analysis for a proposed study of repeated measures of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in human blood. We show how to align data analysis and power analysis plan to account for within-participant correlation across repeated measures. We illustrate how to perform a literature review to find inputs for the power analysis. We emphasize the need to examine the sensitivity of the power values by considering standard deviations and differences in means that are smaller and larger than the speculated, literature-based values. Finally, we provide an example power calculation and a summary checklist for describing power and sample size analysis. Conclusions: This paper provides a detailed roadmap for conducting and describing power analyses for longitudinal studies of environmental exposures. It provides a template and checklist for those seeking to write power analyses for grant applications.

Atlas of Micromorphological Degradation of Archaeological Birch Bark
Creators: name: Klügl, Johanna

Year: 2021

description: In this paper we present an atlas of micromorphological degradation of archaeological birch bark for the first time. We analysed the morphology of 13 samples extracted from ice-logged, waterlogged and cave-retrieved objects dated from the Neolithic to the Middle Age by means of light microscopy (LM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). We then compared their morphology to that of a contemporary sample, both intact and decayed. In all samples, 13 morphological characteristics that can be associated with fungal, bacterial, chemical, mechanical and light degradation are defined and described, and example LM and TEM images are provided. This novel atlas provides conservator-restorers a much-needed tool to relate the macroscopic appearance to the microscopic structure of birch bark objects. The most important macroscopic features allowing estimation of the state of preservation at the cell level are colour changes, loss of pliability, presence of delamination and increased brittleness. Colour change and delamination can be connected to microscopic features, and microscopic analysis can trace whether they were caused by biotic, chemical or physical decay. However, increased brittleness cannot be connected to a specific microscopic feature.

description: A resource allocation scheduling method for a cellular communication system that can avoid interference between cells. The method includes dividing a frequency band of a system into frames each having preferential allocation blocks and general allocation blocks on a time axis, classifying terminals in each cell into groups of terminals vulnerable to interference and terminals non-vulnerable to interference, and allocating resources by terminal groups according to priority orders given to the terminal groups. The preferential allocation resources designed to have the orthogonality to the interference cells, i.e., sectors, on the time axis are allocated to the terminals vulnerable to the interference, and the remaining resources are allocated to the terminals non-vulnerable to the interference.

description: Families experiencing homelessness and housing instability (FEH/HI) face myriad challenges, placing their children at risk for adverse outcomes. Research typically adopts a deficit-based approach to meet immediate needs, but this may limit understanding of the children’s experiences. Recognizing children’s strengths is important for improving their health, development, and support. Resilience and family resilience are concepts that draw on a strengths-based approach. However, there is a need for more research to identify the strengths, such as resilience, among families and their children who are not stably housed. The present research seeks to address the gaps in the literature by examining the resilience perceptions and experiences of adolescents in FEH/HI, as much of the existing research focuses on the adult perspectives, within a family resilience framework through multiple studies. Study 1 (Chapter 2) systematically reviewed existing research on resilience and family resilience within FEH/HI. An analysis of 27 studies identified resilience-related factors across individual, interpersonal, and community domains. Study 2 (Chapter 3) integrated a strengths- and deficit-based approach to explore the challenges and strengths of children in FEH/HI from the perspectives of parents/caregivers and service providers. Semi-structured interviews with 17 parents/caregivers and 15 service providers identified challenges and strengths at the individual, interpersonal, and system levels. Study 3 (Chapter 4) investigated how adolescents within FEH/HI experience and make meaning of family resilience in their day-to-day lives using photo-elicitation (PE) and Froma Walsh’s family resilience framework. Four adolescents participated and took photographs depicting family resilience within their families. Together, findings from these studies provide insights into the strengths and resilience within FEH/HI. Moreover, they emphasize the need for strengths-based approaches in research and practice to support the health, development, and wellbeing of children and adolescents in FEH/HI.
Comparison of the collapse frequency and the probability of failure of bridges

Publisher: name: ICE Publishing

Subjects: Bridges Failure Safety and hazards

description: In this paper, the collapse frequencies of bridges are summarised and compared with target values of probabilities of failure and with calculated failure probabilities for real bridges. The determination of the collapse frequencies is based on various publications in the sense of a meta-analysis. First, the various studies are summarised graphically, discussed and examined for a trend. The results show that the collapse frequencies decrease over time and that today they have reached a minimum. In the next step, the observed collapse frequencies, the target failure probabilities and the calculated failure probabilities are compared. There is a good agreement between the collapse frequencies and failure probabilities for real bridges. The collapse frequencies fulfil the current safety targets for time-dependent target probabilities as well as for time-independent target probabilities for dead and traffic loads. Subsequently, the causes of bridge collapses are assessed regarding loads. The main cause for bridge collapses is accidental loads, such as hydraulic events. Such loads can be controlled if they are considered in the correct order of magnitude. The probabilities of failure can be extended regarding further factors and thus the matching between probabilities and frequencies can be further improved.
