description: Non-indigenous species (NIS) spreading through ballast water and establishing themselves in the new environment threaten biodiversity and marine ecosystems. Ballast water risk assessment (BWRA) models estimate the risk for NIS introduction by ballast water, and the environmental similarity between water source and destination locations is important in these models. Previous BWRA models rely on annual-scale environmental data and potentially neglect seasonal variability in the environmental factors. This research investigates the impact of incorporating monthly-scale environmental data on the evaluation of environmental similarity between source and recipient locations. The statistical comparison reveals that using monthly-scale data generally results in smaller environmental distances across all regions, indicating a higher risk of NIS invasions into Canadian waters than previously estimated with annual data. In addition, this work introduces a novel physics-inspired framework to forecast maritime shipping traffic, enhancing the assessment of NIS spread through global transportation networks. Integrating graph analysis, the gravity model, and the self-attention mechanism from the Transformers, this framework outperforms existing methods, achieving an 89% accuracy for discriminating existing and non-existing shipping trajectories and an 84.8% accuracy in estimating the number of vessels owing between port areas. This represents more than 10% improvement over the traditional deep-gravity model and nearly 50% improvement over the machine learning regressional models, offering a more accurate tool to identify high-risk invasion pathways and prioritize ballast water management in the future.

description: Coal fly ash (FA), an aluminum silicate by-product and environmental pollutant which is generated during the combustion of coal in coal-fired power stations, was used as an electrode modifier for the determination of Cd(II) in aqueous solutions. In this work, graphite/polyurethane-based composites containing different amounts of FA were prepared and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) thermogravimetry (TGA), and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG). The graphite/polyurethane composite electrodes (GPUE), with and without FA modifier, were evaluated with regard to their performance as voltammetric electrodes in the determination of metallic cations, using Cd(II) as a probe. After optimizing solution and instrumental parameters affecting the peak current, a differential pulse anode stripping voltammetry (DPASV) procedure was developed for GPUE modified with 5% FA (m/m), resulting in a linear response for Cd(II) from 2.0 x 10−7 to 1.0 x 10−6 mol L−1 with a detection limit (LOD) of 6.6 x 10−8 mol L−1. Cd(II) was added to natural water samples and determined at the 10−7 mol L−1 level with a mean recovery of 99%. It was also extracted from exhausted rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries and diluted to ca. 0.2 µmol L−1 and determined with the same electrode, with recoveries of 98.7% when compared to FAAS. These results serve as a proof of concept that FA is a useful electrode modifier.
Anchoring the design process

description: This thesis proposes a framework to address the design process in design education. Building upon the assumption that teachers, being professional designers, do not discuss the design process in the architectural design studio and do not have a vocabulary to do so, five generic elements or anchor points are defined which represent the basic design skills. The validity of the framework and the assumption is tested respectively in interviews with a variety of designers and in observations of dialogues between teachers and students. In the final test the design process is addressed in the design studio: the first experiences show that students’ understanding and self-efficacy may increase. The five elements enable teachers and students to address the designerly attitude. The way designers reason consist of: (1) experimentation; an experimentation-based way of thinking; how to explore and reflect, (2) the frame of reference; a knowledge-based way of thinking; how to work with common and proven ‘professional’ knowledge, and (3) the guiding theme; a value-based way of thinking; how to take a position in the design process. Next to that, (4) the laboratory is the (visual) language or set of means designers use to think designerly, and (5) the domains are the playing field of the designer, the product aspects s/he should address.

description: Monitoring recovery from oncologic surgery becomes difficult following discharge. The vulnerable time between discharge and first follow up presents an opportunity for symptom management, complication avoidance, and readmission prevention. These goals may be achieved through careful postsurgical symptom monitoring using electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs). ePROs can identify patients at risk, provide closer monitoring when needed, and offer a mechanism to identify and treat complications before they progress. Herein, we describe the benefits of ePROs and summarize the literature of ePRO use in surgical oncology.

description: Авторы настоящей статьи, изучая тенденции развития и совершенствования российских и зарубежных методических особенностей и педагогических подходов к обучению иностранным языкам, раскрывают опыт известного американского психолога в области педагогики и методологии обучения Бенджамина Блума. Основной акцент Блум делает на так называемую таксономию обучения, в основу которой им положен принцип классификации и категоризации различных уровней обучения, особенности которых раскрываются в его трудах. Значительное место уделяется описанию методических особенностей и принципов разработанной им схемы последовательных действий в рамках шестислойной диаграммы. Соблюдение таких пошаговых действий, по мнению Блума, не только обеспечивает успешное освоение иностранного языка, но и позволяет реализовать в целом задачи интеллектуального образования обучающихся, что весьма значимо на современном этапе развития общества и образования в период активных интеграционных процессов в мировое образовательное и культурное пространство. Таксономия обучения Блума и сегодня является дискуссионной, однако поэтапные действия в процессе обучения иностранному языку, на наш взгляд, являются оправданными.

description: Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have proven to be useful for predicting and interpreting the conformational and dynamic properties of various polymer-solvent systems. The number of repeat units used to represent a polymer chain in an MD study is intended to provide a balance between the computational demands and the reliability of the specific phenomena being studied. To date, this balance has not received sufficient attention. Here, we investigate how the chain length of an atomistic polymer model influences the structure and dynamics of the polymer in different solvents. Seven different polyvinyl chloride (PVC) models, ranging from 5 to 240 –(CH2CHCl)- repeat units, are studied using atomistic MD simulations in two polar organic solvents: tetrahydrofuran (THF) and dimethylformamide (DMF). After benchmarking our MD results against experimental density data, we calculate polymer end-to-end distances, radii of gyration, radial distribution functions, shape descriptors, end-to-end vector correlation functions, dihedral autocorrelation functions, surface areas, surface electrostatic potentials, glass transition temperature and melt viscosities. Our MD simulations demonstrate that most of these properties converge when approximately 100–120 repeat units are used to represent PVC, and this convergence behaviour is observed in different solvents and at different temperatures.

description: The article reveals modern approaches to assessing and managing quality in medical organizations. The necessity of forming a comprehensive methodology for researching quality based on modern methods and technologies in management and marketing of modern organizations is justified. An effective tool for examining and identifying the most significant properties of the provision of medical services is N. Kano's model. In this paper, the authors, relying on numerous experiments and experience in diagnosing the quality of services of medical organizations, present the results of a comprehensive methodology for assessing services in the medical center "Esculap", which includes consumer surveys to compare various quality characteristics with a reference product in comparison with competitors. Constructing a Pareto chart clearly demonstrates customer requests relative to the factors of greatest importance. The conclusions allow management to determine the directions of development and optimization of the most demanded aspects of the service, making it even more valuable in the eyes of the target audience: elimination of queues, development of detailed recommendations of doctors during an appointment, advanced training of employees, expanding the possibility of making an appointment for the next day, purchasing high-tech equipment, etc. The development is directed towards the quality field to ensure the required level of the medical center which lie in the introduction of mapping tools and the 5C system, which allow to identify losses and optimize the office space. Another tool that provides opportunities for improving the quality of a medical center is the deployment (structuring) of quality functions (Quality Function Deployment, QFD). The authors provide the results of automated calculations in the QFD Online program, which allows you to graphically present the results of the analysis and calculate the necessary coefficients. The application of lean manufacturing and QFD methods on a systematic basis ensures timely identification of customer needs and the provision of services that best meet their needs, which ultimately leads to an increase in the efficiency of the medical center.

description: Underwater adhesives are critical for many applications, including marine coatings, sealants, and medical devices. Research on natural underwater adhesives has shown that L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) and amyloid nanostructures are vital to their adhesive abilities. The fusion of DOPA-containing chains and amyloid-forming peptides creates a new space for designing underwater adhesives capable of multi-surface adhesion. One critical question for this design is the interplay between the DOPA and amyloid-forming peptide regions. Here we investigate the effect of the sequence pattern of DOPA-containing chains on the aggregation conformation of conjugates. Discontinuous molecular dynamics simulations were performed for fourteen DOPA-amyloid conjugates with different sequence patterns along the DOPA-containing portion. The amyloid-forming portion is represented by KLVFFAE from the Aβ42 peptide. The structural properties of the DOPA-amyloid conjugates are characterised by the percentages of ordered secondary structures and residue-residue contact maps. The results showed that certain patterns of DOPA and glycine in the DOPA-containing tail allowed the KLVFFAE portions of the conjugates to form distinct ordered β-sheets, and the DOPA-containing portion and the KLVFFAE portion of the conjugates to remain separated both within the same chain and amongst different chains. Among the designs, the most promising sequences are KLVFFAE-G-YYGYYGYY (where Y represents DOPA) and KLVFFAE-G-YYYYGGGG.

description: As oncologists, we have noticed recently that many of our patients are coming to clinic wearing familiar-appearing wristbands. Although the particular brands are not always apparent, these wristbands are all activity trackers in one form or another. This phenomenon parallels the explosive growth of the consumer wearable industry and the ubiquitous presence of commercially available physical activity monitors throughout society. Oncologists have become enamored with the potential clinical and research usefulness of these devices. Intuitively, physical activity monitors could provide another perspective into how patients with cancer feel and function. The importance of patient-reported outcomes in providing this information has been amply demonstrated in recent years, and physical activity monitors promise to complement or, perhaps in some instances, replace this information with unbiased, objective data. If one patient averages 4,000 steps in a day and another averages 8,000 steps, or if a single patient averages 6,000 steps one week and 2,000 the next, should these differences not be telling us something important?

description: We introduce two pairs of stable cheapest nonconforming finite element space pairs to approximate the Stokes equations. One pair has each component of its velocity field to be approximated by the $P_1$ nonconforming quadrilateral element while the pressure field is approximated by the piecewise constant function with globally two-dimensional subspaces removed: one removed space is due to the integral mean--zero property and the other space consists of global checker--board patterns. The other pair consists of the velocity space as the $P_1$ nonconforming quadrilateral element enriched by a globally one--dimensional macro bubble function space based on $DSSY$ (Douglas-Santos-Sheen-Ye) nonconforming finite element space; the pressure field is approximated by the piecewise constant function with mean--zero space eliminated. We show that two element pairs satisfy the discrete inf-sup condition uniformly. And we investigate the relationship between them. Several numerical examples are shown to confirm the efficiency and reliability of the proposed methods.

title: Reforming international wildlife trade interventions in CITES
Creators: name: Challender, Daniel
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2014

description: International trade in wildlife is a major threat to biodiversity conservation. CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, which entered into force in 1975, is the primary mechanism for maintaining sustainability in international wildlife trade. However, CITES boasts few conservation successes and its regulatory approach is proving ineffective in many cases. In this thesis I recommend reforms to international wildlife trade interventions both within and beyond CITES, which would enable the Convention to more effectively govern trade and lead to the improved conservation status of trade-threatened species. In chapter two, I review typical and atypical interventions in CITES and critically evaluate the effectiveness of the Convention. I argue that trade measures need to go beyond regulation and should be multi-faceted, reflecting the socio-economic, cultural and economic complexity of wildlife trade and I outline key areas of research to inform these interventions. In chapter three I focus on high-value wildlife and argue that a regulatory response to poaching for international trade is an inadequate long-term conservation strategy and interventions should involve incentivizing local communities to conserve wildlife, the re-examination of sustainable off-take mechanisms, including regulated trade, ranching, and wildlife farming, and demand management measures. In chapter four, I critically evaluate CITES from an economic perspective through a case study on the trade in pangolins (Pholidota: Manidae) in Asia. I assert that to more effectively manage trade CITES should seek to understand markets and the impact of trade controls and address demand for wildlife as well as supply. In chapter five, I investigate the influence of non-state actors on decisions to amend the CITES Appendices. I find that they are successful in influencing decision-making, but they also claim unwarranted campaign victories and seek to abuse CITES, and Parties should exercise caution when interpreting non-state actor policy advice. In chapter six I discuss the contribution this thesis makes to conservation science and implications for governing wildlife trade before drawing final conclusions.

description: Using the k.p theory and first-principles simulations, we report that applying a moderate pressure (> 0.6 GPa) on black phosphorus can diminish its band gap and produce one-dimensional and even two-dimensional (2D) Dirac cones, distinguishing this material for use in novel non-compound topological insulators. Similar to topological insulators, these 2D Dirac cones result from two competing mechanisms: the unique linear band dispersion tends to open a gap via a "pseudo spin-orbit" coupling, while the band symmetry requirements preserve the material's gapless spectrum. Moreover, these unique Dirac cones are bulk states that do not require time-reversal symmetry, thus they are robust even in the presence of surface or magnetic perturbations. Ultimately, we show that our predictions can be detected by the material's unusual Landau levels.

Cara, vecchia metonimia: un ritorno inatteso

description: La retorica ha subito innumerevoli cambiamenti che hanno portato la classica “arte del parlare” a un sistematico sfaldamento, dapprima a favore della sola elocutio, poi della lexis poetica, infine della metafora. A risentire maggiormente del nuovo assetto di “riduzione tropologica” è la metonimia, bistrattata e declassata a tropo di second’ordine in confronto alla metafora, in particolare a partire dall’ultimo ventennio del XX secolo, dopo un momento di relativo successo. Negli ultimi quindici anni la comunità scientifica, grazie al cognitivismo e alle neuroscienze, ha iniziato a identificare nella metonimia un ruolo primario nell’ecosistema mentale e addirittura una supremazia a livello bio-evolutivo e neuro-fisiologico, a detrimento della metafora, fenomeno secondario e più slegato dalle sfere esperienziali dell’habitat quotidiano. Il funzionamento del cervello è programmato per utilizzare metonimie sia grazie alla capacità del ragionamento inferenziale, sia grazie al fatto che emozioni e sintomi fisiologici si linkano in una incessante operazione metonimica, in particolare dove gli stimoli condizionati predicono e sussumono le emozioni incondizionate, di fatto facilitando un autocontrollo pulsionale.

It is supposed that the system is embedded into real three-dimensional space and that a magnetic flux $Φ$ crosses the transverse section of the cylinder. The model includes four-fermion interactions both in the fermion-antifermion (or chiral) and fermion-fermion (or superconducting) channels. We then study phase transitions in dependence on the chemical potential $μ$ and the flux $Φ$ in the leading order of the large-$N$ expansion technique, where $N$ is the number of fermion fields. It is demonstrated that for arbitrary relations between coupling constants in the chiral and superconducting channels, superconductivity appears in the system at rather high values of $μ$ (the length $L$ of the circumference $S^1$ is fixed). Moreover, it is shown that at sufficiently small values of $μ$ the growth of the magnetic flux $Φ$ leads to a periodical reentrance of the chiral symmetry breaking or superconducting phase, depending on the values of $μ$ and coupling constants.

description: В статье рассмотрена история развития образования, воспитания и педагогической мысли в античную эпоху, в том числе анализируются принципы и закономерности развития историко-педагогического процесса; исследуются теоретические взгляды философов и практический опыт сложившихся в Древней Греции систем воспитания: спартанской и афинской. Показано и обосновано, что эти системы, имея определенные общие черты, тем не менее существенно отличаются одна от другой. Эта диалектика общего и особенного в данных системах соответствовала особенностям социально-экономической, политической и культурной жизни древнегреческих городов-государств Спарты и Афин. Проведен анализ исторических условий, посвященных развитию культуры античной эпохи, оказавшей решающее влияние на формирование педагогической культуры европейских народов периода Средневековья и Нового времени. На его классических образцах формируются представления многих поколений педагогов о значении образования и воспитания юношества, его содержании и методах, роли учителя в общественной жизни.

description: In this article, we present the influence of substituents with different electron-donating (ED) powers on the coordination properties of bis(benzoyloxy)dimethylsilane (BDMS) on the MgCl2 support of Ziegler–Natta (ZN) catalysts through molecular simulation of different adsorption adducts. Thermodynamically, the most favourable adsorption structure was found with the diaminoborane substituent in a bridging mode on the (110) crystalline facet, representing a 37.63% increase at PBEh/TZVP in the adsorption strength of the original silyl ester. Generally, the higher the ED strength of the substituent, the higher the exergonicity of donor coordination. All of the new donors except those containing the nitro and formyl groups are preferably chemisorbed on the (110) surface. While the nitro, formyl, vinyl, and hydroxyl substitutions deteriorated the isotacticity of the polymer, a diaminoborane group was predicted to enhance the isotactic index by 306% relative to the original donor. Particularly, nitrophenyl could improve the isotactic index by 69% while its complexation remained in the thermodynamically controlled regime. Overall, the present DFT study demonstrated how a systematic exploration of substituents over a wide range of ED power can help in the design of new Lewis base donors for ZN catalysis.

description: Предметом исследования данной работы являются диалоговые системы распознавания образов, и в частности история становления и развития этого класса систем в Советском Союзе для решения задач медицинской диагностики. Целью работы является раскрытие исторических предпосылок появления нового класса систем распознавания, а именно диалоговых систем в СССР в 70-е годы прошлого столетия, история их разработки и перспектив развития. В результате исследования было показано, что в 1970-е годы в СССР был разработан портативный прибор, обучающийся в режиме диалога, который успешно был испытан на решении целого ряда задач медицинской диагностики. В 80-е и последующие годы идея построения диалоговых систем получила свое дальнейшее развитие уже как специализированное программное обеспечение персональных ЭВМ. При этом область их применения значительно расширилась. Они стали составной частью медицинских интеллектуальных систем поддержки принятия решений и специализированных пакетов прикладных программ. Таким образом, диалоговые системы превратились в мощный инструмент решения многих задач практической медицины, обеспечивая повышение качества медицинского обслуживания населения.

description: We describe the astrometric calibration of the Gemini NICI Planet-Finding Campaign. The Campaign requires a relative astrometric accuracy of $\approx$ 20 mas across multi-year timescales in order to distinguish true companions from background stars by verifying common proper motion and parallax with their parent stars. The calibration consists of a correction for instrumental optical image distortion, plus on-sky imaging of astrometric fields to determine the pixel scale and image orientation. We achieve an accuracy of $\lesssim 7$ mas between the center and edge of the 18$''$ NICI field, meeting the 20 mas requirement. Most of the Campaign data in the Gemini Science Archive are accurate to this level but we identify a number of anomalies and present methods to correct the errors.

Narrative Empathy, Vulnerability and Ethics of Care in William Trevor’s Fiction
Creators: name: Monaco, Angelo
Publisher: name: ENTHYMEMA
Year: 2020

description: This essay engages with the relationship between ethics and literature. To this end, it addresses the theoretical framework of narrative empathy as illustrative of the supposed ethical power of literary writing. Using a corpus of William Trevor’s fiction, Reading Turgenev (1991) and Love and Summer (2009) as case study, the essay suggests that Trevor’ use of metafictional devices (metalepses and the disnarrated), temporal disarray and multifocal perspectives tends to complicate the general assumption of empathy as necessarily easy and spontaneous. These formal strategies of literary representation manifest the underlying manipulative nature of narrative empathy, confronting readers with the ethical effects of empathy. In so doing, Trevor’s fiction edges towards the aesthetics of vulnerability in that it entails an ethics of reading and writing that reminds the reader of the darkest sides of human existence.

description: Overuse of low-value oncology services has received increasing attention recently. National campaigns such as “Choosing Wisely” have prompted medical specialty societies to identify areas for reducing low-value utilization. The use of antiemetic drugs to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) exemplifies an area with high potential for overuse, and was targeted in the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)’s 2013 set of Choosing Wisely recommendations. Specifically, providers were cautioned not to use potent antiemetics (i.e., neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists [NK1-RAs]), which are intended for use among patients receiving chemotherapy with a high risk of CINV, for patients initiating chemotherapy with a low or moderate risk of CINV.
