description: This study employs new data and a hedonic function to estimate the quality-adjusted price and quantity for farm tractors over the 1950-2011 period. The estimated hedonic prices for tractors are lower than the BLS’ tractor price index in most time period. The lower prices will result in a higher estimate of tractor stock and service flow, which reflects an increase in embodied technical change of farm tractors. After replacing the BLS deflator of tractor investment with these hedonic estimates, average annual TFP growth dropped by 0.13 percentage points over the 1991-2011 period compared with the current USDA’s productivity estimate. The changes can be attributed to properly accounting for embodied technical change in farm tractors over this period.

description: We derive new self-consistent theoretical UV, optical, and IR diagnostics for the ISM pressure and electron density in the ionized nebulae of star-forming galaxies. Our UV diagnostics utilize the inter-combination, forbidden and resonance lines of silicon, carbon, aluminum, neon, and nitrogen. We also calibrate the optical and IR forbidden lines of oxygen, argon, nitrogen and sulfur. We show that line ratios used as ISM pressure diagnostics depend on the gas-phase metallicity with a residual dependence on the ionization parameter of the gas. In addition, the traditional electron density diagnostic [S II] λ6731/[S II] λ6717 is strongly dependent on the gas-phase metallicity. We show how different emission-line ratios are produced in different ionization zones in our theoretical nebulae. The [S II] and [O II] ratios are produced in different zones, and should not be used interchangeably to measure the electron density of the gas unless the electron temperature is known to be constant. We review the temperature and density distributions observed within H II regions and discuss the implications of these distributions on measuring the electron density of the gas. Many H II regions contain radial variations in density. We suggest that the ISM pressure is a more meaningful quantity to measure in H II regions or galaxies. Specific combinations of line ratios can cover the full range of ISM pressures (4 < log(P/k) < 9). As H II regions become resolved at increasingly high redshift through the next generation telescopes, we anticipate that these diagnostics will be important for understanding the conditions around the young, hot stars from the early universe to the present day.

description: The solutions of vacuum Einstein's field equations, for the class of Riemannian metrics admitting a non Abelian bidimensional Lie algebra of Killing fields, are explicitly described. They are parametrized either by solutions of a transcendental equation (the tortoise equation), or by solutions of a linear second order differential equation in two independent variables. Metrics, corresponding to solutions of the tortoise equation, are characterized as those that admit a 3-dimensional Lie algebra of Killing fields with bidimensional leaves.

description: The key to achieving high-quality van der Waals heterostructure devices made from various two-dimensional (2D) materials lies in the control over clean and flexible interfaces. However, existing transfer methods based on different mediators possess insufficiencies including the presence of residues, the unavailability of flexible interface engineering, and the selectivity towards materials and substrates since their adhesions differ considerably with the various preparation conditions, from chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth to mechanical exfoliation. In this paper, we introduce a more universal method using a prefabricated polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film to transfer and stack 2D materials, whether they are prepared by CVD or exfoliation. This peel-off and drop-off technique promises an ideal interface of the materials without introducing contamination. In addition, the method exhibits a micron-scale spatial transfer accuracy and meets special experimental conditions such as the preparation of twisted graphene and the 2D/metal heterostructure construction. We illustrate the superiority of this method with a WSe2 vertical spin valve device, whose performance verifies the applicability and advantages of such a method for spintronics. Our PVA-assisted transfer process will promote the development of high-performance 2D-material-based devices.

description: This paper estimates heterogeneous effects of food source (food away from home, at home and from school) on child dietary quality. Using a quantile estimator designed for panel data, two non-consecutive days of intake are used to identify the effiect of food source across the unconditional distribution of dietary quality. Main results suggest that food away from home has a negative impact on dietary quality for all children except those falling in the very lowest portion of the unconditional distribution. As compared to home-prepared food, school food is found to increase dietary quality for children falling in the bottom quartile of the distribution. For children with a very high underlying proneness to consume a healthful diet, food from school has a negative effect. While food consumed under the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs may not benefit every child (especially at the mean), it does improve the diets of many children whom otherwise would have poorer dietary quality. The implication is that U.S. schools are fertile grounds to improve nutrition skill formation, especially for the most disadvantaged.

description: A structure analysis of Zn-Mg-Ho icosahedral quasicrystal was carried out by the powder X-ray diffraction method using synchrotron radiation (Lambda=0.73490 A) at SPring-8. The intensity distribution was analyzed by the Rietveld method modified for an icosahedral quasicrystal, in which simplified models were assumed: ellipsoid and spherical windows were assumed at five crystallographic sites in a F-type hypercubic unit cell. The analysis revealed the presence of an almost perfect Penrose tiling with edge length 5.20 A. The vertices are occupied alternatively by Zn and Mg, and almost all of the edge centers of the Penrose rhombohedra are occupied by 0.8Zn and 0.2Mg. Ho and Mg atoms tend to be present on the body diagonal of the prolate rhombohedra. Good agreement between the measured and calculated intensity distribution using the simplified model suggests the applicability and the limitation of structure analysis using the powder X-ray diffraction method.

description: Understanding patterns of the correlation between the geomorphology and geology of the seafloor of the hadal trenches is important for the proper ocean modelling. Current paper focuses on the west Pacific Ocean region with a special case of Mariana Trench, the deepest hadal trench on the planet. Methodology of the research include combination of Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) and Quantum GIS based mapping of the geographic location, bathymetry, geodesy, sediment thickness, geomorphic shape, tectonic and geologic structure of the Mariana Trench area, and statistical analysis by means of Python. A GMT was selected for GIS visualization due to its powerful functionality and effective cartographic solutions. An object-oriented high-level programming language, Python was chosen for the data analysis and scientific plotting. The statistical analysis includes following steps: 1) Data distribution by the box plots; 2) Data sorting and grouping by stem plots; 3) Correlation analysis by 3D comparative plots referred to four tectonic plates; 4) Principal Component Analysis; 5) Analysis of Variance. The statistical analysis of the data set was performed in Matplotlib library and its dependencies: NumPy, SciPy and Pandas. A combination of the powerful methods by GMT with data analysis supported by Python programming language is an important method in geosciences aimed to increase the effectiveness of the data analysis by cartographic mapping, statistical computations and graph plotting. This paper illustrated usage of GMT, QGIS and Python for combined data analysis scheme. The results demonstrated correlation between the sediment thickness, slope steepness, depths and location of the bathymetric profiles crossing adjacent tectonic plates: Philippine, Pacific, Caroline and Mariana.

description: Objective: Loss of cerebral autoregulation (CA) plays a key role in secondary neurologic injury. However, the regional distribution of CA impairment after acute cerebral injury remains unclear because, in clinical practice, CA is only assessed within a limited compartment. Here, we performed large-scale regional mapping of cortical perfusion and CA in patients undergoing decompressive surgery for malignant hemispheric stroke. Methods: In 24 patients, autoregulation over the affected hemisphere was calculated based on direct, 15 to 20-minute cortical perfusion measurement with intraoperative laser speckle imaging and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) recording. Cortical perfusion was normalized against noninfarcted tissue and 6 perfusion categories from 0% to >100% were defined. The interaction between cortical perfusion and MAP was estimated using a linear random slope model and Pearson correlation. Results: Cortical perfusion and CA impairment were heterogeneously distributed across the entire hemisphere. The degree of CA impairment was significantly greater in areas with critical hypoperfusion (40-60%: 0.42% per mmHg and 60-80%: 0.46% per mmHg) than in noninfarcted (> 100%: 0.22% per mmHg) or infarcted (0-20%: 0.29% per mmHg) areas (*p < 0.001). Pearson correlation confirmed greater CA impairment at critically reduced perfusion (20-40%: r = 0.67; 40-60%: r = 0.68; and 60-80%: r = 0.68) compared to perfusion > 100% (r = 0.36; *p < 0.05). Tissue integrity had no impact on the degree of CA impairment. Interpretation: In hemispheric stroke, CA is impaired across the entire hemisphere to a variable extent. Autoregulation impairment was greatest in hypoperfused and potentially viable tissue, suggesting that precise localization of such regions is essential for effective tailoring of perfusion pressure-based treatment strategies.

description: We study the observability of the reionization epoch through the 21 cm hyperfine transition of neutral hydrogen. We use a high-resolution cosmological simulation (including hydrodynamics) together with a fast radiative transfer algorithm to compute the evolution of 21 cm emission from the intergalactic medium (IGM) in several different models of reionization. We show that the mean brightness temperature of the IGM drops from dT_b~25 mK to dT_b~0.01 mK during overlap (over a frequency interval of ~25 MHz), while the root mean square brightness temperature fluctuations on small scales drop abruptly from ~10 mK before overlap to ~0.1 mK at the end of overlap. We show that 21 cm observations can efficiently discriminate models with a single early reionization epoch from models with two distinct reionization episodes.

The models suggest that LISA will most efficiently probe a MBH population of lower mass than the one found in bright quasars and nearby galactic nuclei. The mass spectrum of these MBHs could constrain formation scenarios for high-redshift, low-mass galaxies.

Quantum-mechanical studies of vanadium oxides

description: A variety of V-O systems were examined in order to model the catalytic site for VPO-catalyzed conversion of butane to maleic anhydride. All V-O systems examined could be described as a V-O triple bond, with a covalent σ-bond and two π-bonds, and a bond length of approximately 1.56-1.60 Å. The nature of the π-bonds varied. In VOCl_4^(3-) and VOCl_(2-), the π-bonds were both described as donor-acceptors. All other systems displayed one covalent bond and one donor-acceptor bond. Resonance between the two π-bonds was displayed for four-chloride C_(4v) VOCl_4^(2-/-). Optimized C_(2v) geometries for VOCl_4^(2-/-) appear to be the result of this resonance, in which the wavefunction and geometry represent one resonance state of the overall C_(4v) system, in which one π -bond is highly covalent, and the other highly donor-acceptor. The C_(4v)   system is lower in energy than the C_(2v) system at all levels of theory (HF, CASSCF, MRCI) except GVB(3/6)-PP. VOCl_2^(0/+) calculations show strong similarities to C_(2v) VOCl_4^(2-/-)  in both V-O bond description and geometry, suggesting that these systems
can be described as C_(2v)  VOCl_4^(2-/-)  systems without the axial chlorides. VO+ and VOCl_3 results, for which experimental data exists, support the descriptions of geometry and bonding given. V(V) systems display a strong degree of covalent character to the chlorides (as does VO_3 to the bound oxygen molecule), but this effect decreases
significantly as the V(3dδ )-orbitals are occupied. Snap bond calculations indicate that the V(V)-O bond is approximately 28 kcal/mol weaker than the V(lV)-O bond - this may be due to the increased V-C1 interaction in the products of the V(V) bondbreaking.

Time dependent failure of thin films

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering
subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: The prediction of time dependent failure at the interface of a thin film bonded to a substrate is considered in terms of a thermorheologically simple viscoelastic material. An initial investigation of stress distribution at the interface is carried out to understand the possible location and the mechanism of failure. Subsequently, a detailed analysis is developed to obtain not only the longitudinal stress component but also the lateral and shear stress components at the interface. Viscoelastic material behavior is included in the model to account for the stress relaxation behavior of the film. The proposed model satisfies both the edge free boundary conditions as well as the displacement and traction continuity at the interface. Using the model, the magnitude of the stresses and their relaxation behavior has been studied for the case of a polyimide film bonded to a silicon substrate. The analysis is capable of incorporating the material property at different temperatures. Using this capability, the stress evolution in a polyimide film during a typical curing process is obtained. With a view towards reducing the residual stress developed in the film, the effect of cooling rate and cooling cycle on final built in residual stresses during the curing process is studied.

   Based on the stress analysis and also from experimental observations, the most likely type of failure mechanism appears to be edge decohesion. So, the problem of edge decohesion along the interface of a thin viscoelastic film bonded to an elastic substrate under tensile residual stresses is considered in the next chapter. An analytical model is developed to predict the crack growth along the interface and its velocity. The tensile residual stress in the film is replaced by a combination of edge loads and an explicit relation of strain energy with respect to time is obtained by simple beam analysis. The strain energy function is computed at small time intervals and the energy release rate is calculated using Griffith's energy balance approach; the discretized time step is assumed to be very small so that the dissipation effects over a given time step are neglected. Crack growth along the interface is computed based on a fracture criteria. The validity of the assumptions in the analytical results is checked by performing a finite element analysis.

description: The European Union is torn between its aim to curb down the number of migrants and refugees and its obligation to protect fundamental rights of all individuals on its territory. National independent monitoring mechanisms, stipulated by the Screening Regulation and the Asylum Procedures Regulation, are the reflection of this tension. The mechanisms’ aim will be to contribute to the protection of fundamental rights of irregular migrants and applicants for international protection, by monitoring the activities of police officers at the EU’s external borders. While the establishment of national monitoring mechanisms is a positive step in the context of the protection of fundamental rights at the EU’s external borders, their confinement to screening activities and novel border procedures is a manifest disregard of the fact that violations of third-country nationals’ rights are most likely going to happen during border surveillance, which are not encompassed by the mandate of monitoring mechanisms. The aim of this Article is to critically evaluate the rules for the establishment and work of national independent monitoring mechanisms, point to the main challenges and make recommendations, while using the Croatian pilot mechanisms as a test case to discuss the mechanisms’ mandate, methodology and work.

description: This paper reports the results of a survey of cooperative managers regarding the use of communication technology including social media. The survey categorized 105 different cooperatives by current technology use and management practices. The survey found that Texas cooperative managers are willing to expand on their current use of communication technology; however, a clear definition of how to use new concepts as a powerful tool is needed. In terms of governance, we found that many cooperatives have no stated policies regarding the use of communication technologies.

description: In addiction, there are few human studies on the neural basis of cue-induced changes in value-based decision making (Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer, PIT). It is especially unclear whether neural alterations related to PIT are due to the physiological effects of substance abuse or rather related to learning processes and/or other etiological factors related to addiction. We have thus investigated whether neural activation patterns during a PIT task help to distinguish subjects with gambling disorder (GD), a nonsubstance-based addiction, from healthy controls (HCs). Thirty GD and 30 HC subjects completed an affective decision-making task in a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner. Gambling-associated and other emotional cues were shown in the background during the task. Data collection and feature modeling focused on a network of nucleus accumbens (NAcc), amygdala, and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) (derived from PIT and substance use disorder [SUD] studies). We built and tested a linear classifier based on these multivariate neural PIT signatures. GD subjects showed stronger PIT than HC subjects. Classification based on neural PIT signatures yielded a significant area under the receiver operating curve (AUC-ROC) (0.70,p= 0.013). GD subjects showed stronger PIT-related functional connectivity between NAcc and amygdala elicited by gambling cues, as well as between amygdala and OFC elicited by negative and positive cues. HC and GD subjects were thus distinguishable by PIT-related neural signatures including amygdala-NAcc-OFC functional connectivity. Neural PIT alterations in addictive disorders might not depend on the physiological effect of a substance of abuse but on related learning processes or even innate neural traits.

description: For a complete 12 micron flux-limited sample of 207 IRAS sources, we have extracted light curves in seven infrared bands between 1.25 - 60 microns using the database of the DIRBE instrument on the COBE satellite. Using previous infrared surveys, we filtered these light curves to remove datapoints affected by nearby companions. In the time-averaged DIRBE color-color plots, we find clear segregation of semi-regulars, Mira variables, carbon stars, OH/IR stars, and red giants without circumstellar dust and with little or no visual variation. The DIRBE 1.25 - 25 micron colors become progressively redder and the variability in the DIRBE database increases along the oxygen-rich sequence non-dusty slightly varying red giants -> SRb/Lb -> SRa -> Mira -> OH/IR and the carbon-rich SRb/Lb -> Mira sequence. This supports previous assertions that these are evolutionary sequences involving the continued production and ejection of dust. Carbon stars are redder than oxygen-rich stars for the same variability type, except in the F(12)/F(25) ratio. Of the 28 sources in the sample not previous noted to be variable, 18 are clearly variable in the DIRBE data, with amplitudes of variation of ~0.9 magnitudes at 4.9 microns and ~0.6 magnitudes at 12 microns, consistent with them being very dusty Mira-like variables. The light curves of the semi-regular variable L2 Pup are particularly remarkable. The maxima at 1.25, 2.2, and 3.5 microns occur 10 - 20 days before those at 4.9 and 12 microns, and, at 4.9 and 12 microns, another maximum is seen between the two near-infrared maxima.

description: This paper evaluates how efficient US futures prices have predicted future spot prices since 2006. It uses cointegration and causality methods to assess the efficiency of US commodity futures markets. The cointegration between the spot and futures price is a necessary condition for our definition of market efficiency. It ensures that there exists a long-run equilibrium relationship between the two prices (Ali and Gupta 2011). Causality assists in examining the existence of lead or lag relationships between futures and spot prices in order to make inferences on the directions (unidirectional or bidirectional) of information flow.

description: The optimal control of open quantum systems is a challenging task but has a key role in improving existing quantum information processing technologies. We introduce a general framework based on reinforcement learning to discover optimal thermodynamic cycles that maximize the power of out-of-equilibrium quantum heat engines and refrigerators. We apply our method, based on the soft actor-critic algorithm, to three systems: a benchmark two-level system heat engine, where we find the optimal known cycle; an experimentally realistic refrigerator based on a superconducting qubit that generates coherence, where we find a non-intuitive control sequence that outperforms previous cycles proposed in literature; a heat engine based on a quantum harmonic oscillator, where we find a cycle with an elaborate structure that outperforms the optimized Otto cycle. We then evaluate the corresponding efficiency at maximum power.

description: From the beginning of 2011 to the middle of 2012, the U.S. stock market generally did not perform well. This subpar performance has been largely attributed by the business media to the Eurozone crisis. The purpose of this paper is to determine the extent to which the values of U.S. food companies are related to the Eurozone crisis. The stock prices of nine well-known U.S. food companies and the S&P index are regressed, using a system of equations approach, against a set of variables accounting for profitability and the economic wellbeing of the Eurozone and the United States. Based on the findings of this study it would seem that the U.S. stock market, including food companies, is primarily affected by the wellbeing of the U.S. economy as opposed to that of the EU.

description: Background: Impairments of social cognition are considered core features of schizophrenia and are established predictors of social functioning. However, affective aspects of social cognition including empathy have far less been studied than its cognitive dimensions. The role of empathy in the development of schizophrenia remains largely elusive. Methods: Emotional and cognitive empathy were investigated in large sample of 120 individuals at Clinical High Risk of Psychosis (CHR-P) and compared with 50 patients with schizophrenia and 50 healthy controls. A behavioral empathy assessment, the Multifaceted Empathy Test, was implemented, and associations of empathy with cognition, social functioning, and symptoms were determined. Results: Our findings demonstrated significant reductions of emotional empathy in individuals at CHR-P, while cognitive empathy appeared intact. Only individuals with schizophrenia showed significantly reduced scores of cognitive empathy compared to healthy controls and individuals at CHR-P. Individuals at CHR-P were characterized by significantly lower scores of emotional empathy and unspecific arousal for both positive and negative affective valences compared to matched healthy controls and patients with schizophrenia. Results also indicated a correlation of lower scores of emotional empathy and arousal with higher scores of prodromal symptoms. Conclusion: Findings suggest that the tendency to 'feel with' an interaction partner is reduced in individuals at CHR-P. Altered emotional reactivity may represent an additional, early vulnerability marker, even if cognitive mentalizing is grossly unimpaired in the prodromal stage. Different mechanisms might contribute to reductions of cognitive and emotional empathy in different stages of non-affective psychotic disorders and should be further explored.
