General Relativity Theory and Earthquakes

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Earthquakes are caused by movements within the Earth’s crust and uppermost mantle. Earthquakes epicenters occur mostly along tectonic plate boundaries. Solar energy drives the major processes that happen at the earth's surface, like the water cycle, wind, ocean currents, weathering, erosion, sediments transports and growth of plants. This huge mass transfer in combination with earth’s rotation and gravitational effect disturbs the equilibrium of continental plates. In this paper, we propose a statistical approach to compute the influence of solar energy on earthquakes. Also we estimate the relationship of aa- geomagnetic indices from solar energy. The results show that increase of solar activity leads to the growth of number of earthquake events. Finally, we discuss how general relativity theory interacts as a complex system with earthquakes.
Disagreement and Learning about Reforms

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract: When it comes to economic reforms in developing countries, many economists agree on broad objectives (such as fostering outward orientation). Broad objectives, however, can be pursued in many di¤erent ways, and policy experimentation is often indispensable for learning which alternative works locally. We propose a simple model to study this societal learning process. The model explores the role of disagreeing beliefs about what works. It suggests that this type of disagreement can stall the societal learning process and cause economic stagnation. Interestingly, this can happen even if everybody knows that Pareto-improving reforms do exist. Our analysis is motivated by the empirical observation of a negative relationship between disagreement and economic growth among poorer countries.
SATISFACTION SURVEY OF PATIENTS FOR TELEMEDICINE CONSULTATION DURING COVID 19 TRANSMISSIONS

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Telemedicine was defined by the World Health Organization as “the delivery of health care services by all health care professionals using technology for the exchange of valid information for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease and injuries”. In the current scenario of COVID19, telemedicine played a vital role in our live by saving our time and also by helping us in maintaining the social distancing norms. Telemedicine consultation helps to minimize the spread of the virus by providing all kind of health care services without the need of going to the close contact to the clinicians. In our city both government and private hospitals have actively participated and provided their every possible way of contribution to various telemedicine activities. The aim & objective of this study is to find out, satisfaction of the patients in using telemedicine consultation during COVID-19 pandemic. A Survey was administered among 30 patients who had received at least one or more than one telemedicine consultation to know the satisfaction for telemedicine consultation during this COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was done among 30 people between the age group of 30- above 60 year during the year 2021. The survey was done through Google Form. Participants responded to survey questions about their telemedicine consultation during COVID-19 pandemic. The result of the survey shows, 60% people from 30-40 age group, 6.7% people from 41-50 age group, 23.3% people from 51-60 age group & 10% people from above 60 age group used telemedicine during this pandemic. My survey also shows that 20% for new complaint, 16.7% follow up, 33.3% for emergency & 30% for covid 19 related reasons used telemedicine and it also shows that 30% people for sick or well check, 40% people used for safety, 26.7% people used to save time and 3.3% people used telemedicine for other reason for most recent visit. From my study I found out that 53.3% people used telephone & 20% used video conference and 26.7%
Research on the Determination of the Socio-Economic Factors Affecting the Farmers' Behaviour in Adopting Land Consolidation Implemented in Güzelbeyli Town in Zile County, Tokat Province

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The main purpose of this study was to determine the factors affecting the farmers' adoption behaviour in adopting land consolidation implemented in Guzelbeyli town in Zile county, Tokat province. Chi-square analysis was performed to determine whether a difference existed between the farmers who adopted and did not adopt the land consolidation. The results of the analysis indicated that there were some factors affecting the adoption of land consolidation such as farmers' social participation level and their level of awareness about land consolidation. This result may show that the participation of farmers in different activities increases parallel to an expansion in their social environment. Analysis of variation was carried out to determine the difference between groups in terms of economic factors at the various levels of awareness about land consolidation in the farmers who adopted it. The results obtained showed that a significant difference was found between the groups in terms of farm size of the farmers adopting the land consolidation. Therefore, there was a difference among farmers adopting land consolidation. Further statistical analysis was carried out to find out whether a difference exists between the means of the two groups who adopted and did not adopt the land consolidation. It was found that the differences between two groups' means were statistically significant in terms of the following variables: farm size, plot number, irrigable land ownership before and after the land consolidation, number of plots that have road access after the land consolidation, annual income gained from the sale of agricultural crops and gross production values. These results show that farmers who are well-off tend to participate in activities such as land consolidation that improve economic and social welfare. This is a way of combating riks in the future.
A Clinician’s Guide to Perioperative Bridging for Patients on Oral Anticoagulation

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Updates in recent clinical guidelines have led to a change in the management of perioperative anticoagulation for patients on oral anticoagulant therapy. No standardized bridging consensus exists in the literature. The necessity for bridging therapy is determined based on careful consideration of the thrombosis risk versus the bleeding risk of the procedure. Risk stratification will aid the decision to bridge or not to bridge. Patients are bridged with agents with appropriate kinetics to allow for their elimination prior to the time of the procedure in order to decrease the risk of hemorrhage during invasive procedures. This intent of this article is to discuss perioperative bridging therapy and provide a practical guide for the clinician.
Agent-Based Middleware for Advanced Communication Services in a Ubiquitous Computing Environment

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In a ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) environment, system components of different types, including hardware elements, software components, and network connections, must cooperate mutually to provide services that fulfill user requirements. Consequently, advanced and flexible characteristics of software that are specialized for a ubicomp environment are needed. This article presents a proposal of an agent-based middleware for a ubicomp environment comprising computers and home electric appliances. The middleware, called AMUSE, can take quality of service (QoS) in a ubicomp environment into consideration by coping not only with user context but also with the resource context, using agent-based computing technology. Herein, we describe the concept, design, and initial implementation of AMUSE. Simulation results of an experimental ubiquitous service using AMUSE demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed scheme. Additionally, to confirm our scheme’s feasibility and effectiveness, we describe the initial implementation of a multimedia communication application based on AMUSE.
The effect of construction joints and cracks on the stress-strain state of the arch-gravity dam

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The aim of the paper was to review the stress-strain state of an arch-gravity dam of the Sayano-Shushenskaya HPP, which has construction and contact joints. The problem is solved by finite element method using software package SOFiSTiK. The finite element model of the "dam – foundation – abutments" created at the department "Structural mechanics and theory of elasticity" of SPbSPU is described. Three-dimensional 8-nodal finite elements were used. Joints in the dam body were modeled by unilateral constraints. The schemes of unilateral constraints location in contact and construction joints are presented. To assess the correctness of the finite element model operation the calculated radial movements at the crest of the dam was compared with the field data. Satisfactory agreement of values confirms the correctness of modeling system behavior by the design scheme. According to the calculation results from the action of the hydraulic load we can conclude that account of the disclosure joints leads to a significant increase in the calculated stresses in the dam body.
The role of variant histone H2AV in Drosophila melanogaster larval hematopoiesis

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

Replication-independent histone variants can replace the canonical replication-dependent histones. Vertebrates have multiple H2A variant histones, including H2AZ and H2AX that are present in most eukaryotes. H2AZ regulates transcriptional activation as well as the maintenance of gene silencing, while H2AX is important in DNA damage repair. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster has only one histone H2A variant (H2AV), which is a chimera of H2AZ and H2AX. In this study we found that lack of H2AV led to the formation of black melanotic masses in Drosophila third instar larvae. The formation of these masses was found in conjunction with a loss of the majority of the primary lymph gland lobes. Interestingly, the cells of the posterior signaling center were preserved in these mutants. Reduction of H2AV levels by RNAi knockdown caused a milder phenotype that preserved the lymph gland structure but that included precocious differentiation of the prohemocytes located within the medullary zone and the secondary lobes of the lymph gland. Mutant rescue experiments suggest that the H2AZ-like rather than the H2AX-like function of H2AV is primarily required for normal hematopoiesis.
The perceived quality of wooden building materials—A systematic literature review and future research agenda

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract In order to develop strategies for sustainable practices and to enhance the replacement of non‐renewable materials with sustainable alternatives such as wood, it is essential to recognize the variables affecting consumers’ quality perceptions. Despite this, there is still limited knowledge about the perceived quality of wooden building materials. Wood industry studies have to date approached quality mainly by investigating quality indicators related to the product or supplier, while overlooking the effects of the consumer characteristics on the quality perception process. The purpose of this study is to fill this gap by implementing a systematic literature review of peer‐reviewed articles published in international scientific journals during the 2000s using the “Scientific Procedures and Rationales for Systematic Literature Reviews” (SPAR‐4‐SLR) protocol. Literature searches are implemented in two scientific databases (ISI Web of Knowledge and Scopus) to gather the material to be analyzed according to two organizing frameworks (i.e., the TCCM framework and the Model of the Quality Perception Process). The results suggest that the perceived quality of wooden building materials is affected by different quality cues and attributes of wood (i.e., sensory, social, economic, technical, and sustainability properties). Furthermore, different personal variables (consumers’ socio‐demographic and psychographic characteristics) and situational variables influence consumer behavior regarding wooden building materials. The study contributes to wood products literature by providing new theoretical insights about the perceived quality of wooden building materials and developing a future research agenda that brings forward a number of propositions for future studies based on identified research gaps.
Mechanical Evaluation of a New Sand Control Screen for SAGD Applications

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) wells typically require the deployment of an open hole completion combining sand control with adequate mechanical strength to withstand: 1) aggressive installation loads—compression, torque, bending—that are characteristic of shallow horizontal wells, and 2) severe operational loads—tension, compression, collapse, burst—caused by a combination of high temperature steam injection and formation collapse around the completion. Historically, slotted liners have been used in Western Canada, primarily because of low cost relative to wire-wrapped screen (WWS) or premium mesh screens. However, slotting base pipe can significantly weaken its mechanical strength, particularly in torsion and collapse, and the slot width can change as the liner deforms under certain load conditions. Reported incidents of mechanical failure and loss of sand control of slotted liners in SAGD wells have generated interest among operators to investigate alternative technologies. A new sand screen has been developed that involves flush-mounting and securing 25.4 mm diameter fusion bonded metal laminate (FBML) cartridges/discs directly into the base pipe wall. The open flow area of the screen, which can be as high as 20% (versus 2.5% for slotted liner), is dictated by the number of inserted discs (holes) per foot. For an equivalent open flow area, drilling holes in the base pipe is less detrimental to the mechanical strength of the liner than cutting slots. This new geometry results in a sand screen that is cost competitive to slotted liner on a same-open-flow-area basis, significantly stronger, and comparable to a premium mesh screen in terms of sand retention performance. To independently quantify the mechanical strength and integrity of this new screen for SAGD, an extensive Finite Element Analysis study was performed on 177.8 mm (7"), 38.7 kg/m (26 lb/ft), L80 base pipe for two different hole densities and various single loads, combined loads and thermal cycling. The results, as presented herein, demonstrate that inserting FBML discs into base pipes does not significantly weaken it compared to cutting slots. A stand alone screen (SAS) with almost four times the open flow area of a slotted liner has significantly more torsion and collapse strengths.

None of the students were able to complete the whole questionnaire perfectly. Key words: awareness; physiotherapy; private schools; career options; students.
<title>Progress toward a general grating patterning technology using phase-locked scanning beams</title>

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The fabrication of large high-quality diffraction gratings remains one of the most challenging tasks in optical fabrication. Traditional direct-write methods, such as diamond ruling or electron-beam lithography, can be extremely slow and result in gratings with undesired phase errors. Holographic methods, while generally resulting in gratings with smoother phase, frequently require large aspheres and lengthy optical setup in order to achieve desired period chirps. In this paper we describe a novel interference lithography method called scanning-beam interference lithography (SBIL) that utilizes small phase-locked scanning beams to write general periodic patterns onto large substrates. Small mutually coherent beams are phase controlled by high-bandwidth electro-optic components and caused to overlap and interfere, generating a small grating image. The image is raster-scanned over the substrate by use of a high-precision interferometer-controlled air bearing stage, resulting in large grating patterns. We will describe a prototype system in our laboratory designed to write gratings with extremely low phase distortion. The system is being generalized to pattern gratings with arbitrary period progressions (chirps). This technology, with extensions, will allow the rapid, low cost patterning of high-fidelity periodic patterns of arbitrary geometry on large substrates that could be of great interest to astronomers.

The Development Potential of the Guinea Savanna: Social and Ecological Constraints in the West African “Middle Belt” 1

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

This chapter analyzes the ecology of the Guinea savanna from the perspective of its potential for development. It identifies two systems of "bounded rationality" in relation to the exploitation of resources in the Guinea savanna. The first is that of the development planner, whose proposals to alleviate population pressures in the sudan and sahel by encouraging emigration to savanna regions would result in the rapid exhaustion of savanna resources, to the detriment of both settlers and native populations. The second is that of the local farmer, who is concerned with the management of resources but whose capacity to do anything other than maintain production, at whatever the long-term environmental cost, is also limited. The inhabitants of the Guinea savanna bear a tremendous burden of parasitic disease: onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis, trypanosomiasis, dracunculiasis, and malaria.
