A Two-Path Moderated Mediation Model of Customer-Driven Service Innovation

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

This study proposes a moderated mediation model of customer-driven hotel employee service innovations. Building on social exchange and social identity theories, we suggest that positive customer–employee exchanges influence employees’ service innovations via direct and indirect paths. While the reciprocal nature of social exchanges was used to explain the direct path from customer–employee exchange to employees’ service innovation, social identity theory was used to explain the indirect path whereby customers’ inputs shape employees’ creative role identities, thus fostering innovation behaviors. The study further tests how organization openness serves as a boundary condition, and the results support the moderating role of organization openness, suggesting that while positive customer–employee exchanges help shape employees’ self-identification (as being creative) and trigger employees’ service innovation, an open organization encourages employees to actively engage in service innovations.
Comparative analysis of the entropic organization of road transport systems in the representative regions of the Arctic zone of Russia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The mineral resources of the Arctic region are difficult to access. The list of dangers, challenges, and threats that form risks for the development of the Russian Arctic Zone occupies 18 points in Section II of the Strategy for Developing the Russian Arctic Zone and Ensuring National Security until 2035. Among them, poor transport infrastructure development and the high cost of its construction represent the most fundamentally important problem. This is a challenge that has to be met, despite all the difficulties and huge costs. This paper presents a comparative assessment of the processes of improving road infrastructure in two representative regions of the Russian Arctic Zone — Murmansk Region and Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area — developing over time (2012–2019). The improvement of regional road infrastructure is assessed in terms of system organization using such an indicator as relative system entropy Hn. We also analyzed the dynamics of changes in the organization of regional traffic safety (TS) systems over time (2012–2019) and evaluated the impact of the organization in road construction on the TS system organization in the compared regions.

The prevalence of elf-medication practice was 87.1%. The most common self-medication was pain killers while, the most common indication of self-medication was headache. The most common reason for self-medication practices was previous experience, and the most common source of information was personal knowledge. Males practiced self-medications more than females.
Methyl Red Decolorization Efficiency of a Korea Strain of Aspergillus sp. Immobilized into Different Polymeric Matrices

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

ABSTRACT: Intensive research studies have revealed that fungal decolorization of dye wastewater is a promising replacement for the current process of dye wastewater decolorization. The authors isolated an Aspergillus sp. from the effluent of a textile industry area in Korea and assessed the effects of a variety of operational parameters on the decolorization of methyl red (MR) by this strain of Aspergillus sp. This Aspergillus sp. was then immobilized by entrapment in several polymeric matrices and the effects of operational conditions on MR decolorization were investigated again. The optimal decolorization activity of this Aspergillus sp. was observed in 1% glucose at a temperature of 37 °C and pH of 6.0. Furthermore, stable decolorization efficiency was observed when fungal biomass was immobilized into alginate gel during repeated batch experiment. These results suggest that the Aspergillus sp. isolated in Korea could be used to treat industrial wastewaters containing MR dye.
Support payments for agriculture and rural development in Latvia

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The European Union (EU) Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) affects the development of the agricultural industry and rural areas in all the Member States.A very important role is played by various support payments as one of the policy instruments.The CAP has been developing and is being reformed; therefore, it is important to assess the effect of various CAP support instruments on the development of the agricultural industry.Therefore, the research aim is to assess the support instruments and kinds of support as well as their effects on selected agricultural indicators.The research study proceeds in three stages or phases: first, the identification of the total amount of support payments paid and the key kinds of support; second, a detailed analysis of the key kinds of support; third, the identification of associations between the amounts of support payments and other agricultural and farm performance indicators.The research found that in the period 2005 -2014 in Latvia, the total amount of support amounted to EUR 4.3 billion, of which EUR 520 million or 12% were received by approximately 1000 FADN farms.The most significant kinds of financial support in Latvia were direct payments, accounting for 47% of the total amount of support and financial assistance provided for rural development with 39%.The total amount of financial support and the amount of area-based payments affected the key agricultural indicators as well.
Genetic variability in grapevine clones of ‘Muscat of Alexandria’

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

[EN] Among grapevine cultivars, the `Muscat¿ family includes several widespread types that share a characteristic pronounced floral aroma and a typical `Muscat¿ flavor. `Muscat blanc à petits grains¿ and `Muscat of Alexandria¿ are the most representative and ancient cultivars. The grapevine cultivar `Muscat of Alexandria¿ is of great importance within the Valencia and Vinos de Alicante PDOs (Protected Designations of Origin, a prestigious Spanish regional product classification). Fruits from these cultivars are the basis of various appreciated wines, also being consumed as table grapes or used for raisin production. We used a set of selected simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers to confirm the identity of different clones of `Muscat of Alexandria¿, some of them showing differential ampelographic traits. Additionally, we found intravarietal genetic variability using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Now, more accurate genotyping has been conducted by GBS (genotyping by sequencing). The GBS generated 2-4 million reads per sample, 85% of which were mapped to the reference genome developed by the French-Italian consortium (Vitis vinifera IGGP 12×). Around 40,000 SNPs were identified, with a coverage greater than 10×. Polymorphisms between and within the analyzed clones were found. Experimental validations of the identified SNPs will provide markers to fingerprint these clones accurately. They will be also suitable for association studies or to develop molecular markers useful in selection programs.

Convenient synthesis of mixed anhydrides by the ozonolysis of oxazoles

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The ozonolysis of azoles was investigated, and the products formed via a 1,2-addition of ozone were the main ones obtained. In particular, 2,5-disubstituted oxazoles (2) were treated with an excess of an ozone–oxygen stream to give the corresponding acid anhydrides (6) quantitatively. This reaction should be useful for the preparation of the mixed anhydrides (6) in good yield at low temperature.
Export Processing Zones

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This note focuses on export processing \n zones as potential, useful tools in export promotion, and, \n outlines the general features, and objectives of these \n zones, highlighting country experiences, and offering policy \n recommendations for establishing them. It identifies three \n main goals of export processing zones: provision of foreign \n exchange earnings; job creation, and income generation; and, \n attracts foreign direct investments, which enhances \n knowledge, and technology transfer. While common features \n are generally shared, export zones are differentiated by \n public, or private ownership, or management, and, by \n dependent qualities of management, facilities, and services \n they provide, namely, defined as "high-end" or \n "low-end". Recommendations suggest that export \n processing zones is one of a number of tools, used to \n off-set anti-export bias, in distorted economies. But just \n like other export promotion tools, export zones are a \n second-best policy choice. Zones can play a dynamic role in \n the development of a country, provided they are adequately \n managed, and integrated within national reform, and \n liberalization programs. However, zones should not be \n established in liberal, low-protection economies, due to the \n potential of lower than expected foreign direct investments, \n as a result of unattractive laws, and regulations, and \n because they may distort trade instruments, introducing \n discretionary elements in policy framework.
Influence of strain rates on the mechanical behaviors of shape memory polymer

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

In the last few decades, shape memory polymers have demonstrated their major advantages of extremely high recovery strain, low density and low cost. Generally, the mechanical behavior of shape memory polymers is strongly dependent on the loading strain rates. Uniaxial tensile experiments were conducted on one kind of typical shape memory polymer (epoxy) at several different temperatures (348 K, 358 K, 368 K and 378 K) and true strain rates (0.25% s−1, 1.25% s−1 and 2.5% s−1). Thus, the influence of strain rate and temperature on the mechanical behavior of epoxy, in particular on the post yield stresses and the strain hardening behavior, were investigated through this experimental study. Based on our previous work Guo (2014 Smart Mater. Struct. 23 105019), a simplified model which can explain the shape memory effect of epoxy was proposed to predict the strain hardening behavior of the shape memory polymer. Based on the suggestion of Rault (1998 J. Non-Cryst. Solids 235–7 737–41), a linear compensation model was introduced to indicate the change in yield stresses with the increase of strain rate and temperature. Finally, the new model predictions for the true strain and stress behavior of epoxy were compared with the experimental results.

A Simple Model to Think about the Evolutionary Rate in Macroevolution

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

At present, there are some controversies among scientists who have accepted the theory postulated by Darwin (enhanced in the present century by neodarwinian contributions), but which disagree with some of its aspects (Ridley 1985). Among these controversies are the level of selection (species, individuals or genes), the power of natural selection, the neutral theory, macroevolution, etc. A major controversy is over the rate of evolution and when most significant evolutionary change occurs. Here there are two opposing schools: phyletic gradualism (Dawkins 1987) and punctuated equilibrium (Gould & Eldredge 1977). In this paper we will deal only with the latter controversy, developing a simple model that can help students to think about evolution and better understand the gradualist and punctuationist macroevolutive approaches, affording them an easy and friendly teaching tool to introduce these concepts and other related ones (i.e. mutation, selection, fitness, extinction, origin of life, etc.) in the classroom. One of the greatest difficulties in teaching these issues is the inability to perform experiments concerning evolutionary predictions. Computer programs as presented in this paper can overcome some of these difficulties.
Class AB Differential Stage on Complementary Field-Effect Transistors (CJFET, CCMOS) and Inclusion Schemes in Micro-Power High-Speed Operational Amplifiers

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A new class AB differential stage architecture based on complementary field effect transistors with control p-n junction (CJFets) is considered, which does not contain reference current sources in the source circuits of the input transistors. This circuit design technique allows the slew rate of micro-power operational amplifiers (OAs) to be increased many times over in both non-inverting and inverting configurations. The elimination of reference current sources in the OA input stage, as shown by the results of theoretical analysis and modeling, has a positive effect on the numerical values of the systematic component of the zero offset voltage, which has extremely small values for ideal current mirrors. As an example, a OA circuit realized on CJFet and CBJT active elements from Intersil Corporation is given. The results of computer modeling of the OA statics at different widths and lengths of JFet channels are presented. The discussed circuit design technique is recommended for practical use in high temperature analog microcircuits on SiC and GaN wide gap semiconductors.
Tensile Test and Finite Element Optimization of the Triple-pipe Rebar Connector datas

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The dataset from the study "Tensile Test and Finite Element Optimization of the Triple-pipe Rebar Connector" includes comprehensive graphical representations of its mechanical performance. This encompasses the **Connector Load-Strain Curves** obtained from the physical tensile tests, which detail the elastic, yielding, and strain-hardening behavior of the assembly. The finite element analysis contributed two key sets of results: the **Load-Strain Curves of Connector Steel**, illustrating the simulated material response of the connector itself, and a **Comparison of Rebar Load-Strain Curves**, which directly validates the FEA model against experimental data by overlaying the predicted and measured performance of the rebar. Additionally, the structural response is further characterized by the **Connector Load-Displacement Curves**, providing essential information on stiffness and deformation characteristics until failure.
Hemoglobin St. Louis [beta 28 (B10) Leu replaced by Gln]: crystal structure of the fully reduced (deoxy) form.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The three-dimensional structure of fully reduced Hb St. Louis has been determined to 3.5 A resolution. The difference electron density map clearly shows the site of the mutation and the effects it produces. Glutamine B10 and histidine E7 (the distal histidine) swing towards each other and, between them, stabilize a water molecule in the normally hydrophobic heme pocket. This creation of an aqueous microenvironment near the heme accounts for the thermal instability, high rate of methemoglobin formation, and increased oxygen affinity observed in solution studies of the mutant as described in the preceeding paper. Other than a small increase in tilt of the heme, virtually no further stereochemical disturbances result.
Design and Optimization of a Lightweight and Simple Self-Propelled Crawler Potato Combine Harvester

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

To address the inadequacies of mechanized potato-harvesting equipment on challenging terrains like hills, mountains, and small fields, a lightweight and simple self-propelled crawler potato combine harvester was developed based on the agronomic and harvesting requirements of potato cultivation. The machine consists of key components including a depth-limited soil-crushing device, an auxiliary feeding device, an excavation device, a rubber rod separation device, and a ton bag sorting device. It offers technical advantages such as a lightweight structure, auxiliary feeding and conveying, and manual assistance in sorting ton bags. The key components, such as the auxiliary feeding device, depth-limiting soil-crushing device, and rubber rod separation device, were analyzed theoretically to determine the relevant structures and parameters. Through initial harvesting performance tests, the separation screen line speed, vibration frequency, and device inclination angle were identified as the experimental factors. Evaluation indicators such as potato bruise rate, skin breakage rate, loss rate, and impurity content were chosen, and a three-factor, three-level Box–Behnken optimization test was conducted. The results indicated that with a separation screen line speed of 1 m/s, vibration frequency of 8 Hz, and device inclination angle of 30°, the potato damage rate during harvesting was 1.318%, the skin breakage rate was 1.825%, the loss rate was 2.815%, and the impurity rate was 2.736%. Field tests with the same parameters showed that the potato damage rate, skin breakage rate, loss rate, and impurity rate of the harvester were 1.357%, 1.853%, 2.86%, and 2.748%, respectively, meeting relevant industry technical standards. This research can serve as a reference for enhancing the harvesting performance of potato combine harvesters and ton bag sorting technology.

Introduction: Odontoid fracture is common in cervical injury, representing about 20% of total cervicalfractures.Classic odontoid fracture classification focused on anatomy of fracture site has notreatment recommendation and a modified treatment-oriented classification of odontoid fracturewas suggested in 2005.We reviewed our odontoid fracture patients to assess the feasibility and efficacy of Grauer's classification.Methods: Between October 2000 and September 2015, we collected data from patients who came to our institute for odontoid fracture.Demographic data of patients was reviewed, and neck visual analog scale (VAS) score and fusion rate were assessed by reviewing electronicmedical records retrospectively.Results: Sixty-nine patients out of a total of eighty-two odontoid fracture patients were reviewedaccording to Grauer's classification.Neck VAS of all subtypes in odontoid fracture classificationwere decreased at last follow-up (p¼0.001).Overall fusion rate was 88.4% at last follow-up.The concordance rate between Grauer's recommendation and our treatment was 69.9%, especiallyin type II with the concordance higher than 80%.Complication was minimal representing 7.2%, only in types I and III.Conclusion: In this study, there were statistically significant improvement in all subtypes interms of neck VAS at the last follow up, especially in types II and III.Grauer's classification appears to be meaningful to decide treatment plan for odontoid fractures, especially type IIodontoid fracture.
The activation of saturated hydrocarbons by transition-metal complexes in solution. Part IV. Oxidation of benzene and of alkanes by hexachloroplatinate(IV)

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Benzene is oxidised to chiorobenzene by H2PtCl6 in aqueous trifluoroacetic acid at 120 °C. The initial formation of a water-soluble complex of platinum(IV) and benzene is accelerated by an increase in the H2PtCl6 concentration and by addition of K2[PtCl4], and is reduced by the addition of chloride ion. Subsequent reactions give chlorobenzene; some of it complexes with platinum. An analogous study has been made of the oxidation of alkanes, particularly hexane, using the same system. Evidence for the formation of chlorohexanes from hexane and of platinum complexes with hydrocarbon ligands has been obtained. 2- and 3-chlorohexanes are further oxidised and, from determinations of the amount of PtIV reduced during the reaction, it appears likely that polychlorinated carboxylic acids are formed. The mechanisms of aromatic and alkane oxidation in this system are initially very similar. The reaction of cyclohexane with H2PtCl6 is more complex. In addition to chlorination, dehydrogenation occurs to give benzene and chlorobenzene.
