Thermal Convection in Porous Cavity with Heated Block

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This work investigates mixed convection numerically using a heated square cylinder at the middle of a vented cavity filled with fluid-saturated porous media. External cold fluid enters into the cavity through the opening located either at the bottom wall or at the bottom and side walls, whereas the hot plume is vented through an opening at the top wall. All the walls of the cavity are insulated. The governing equations are solved by in-house code. Flow through porous medium has been modeled using Brinkman-Forchheimer-Darcy Model (BFDM). The influence of flow parameters (Reynolds number Re = 10–500, Richardson number Ri = 0.1–100) and porous-medium parameters (Darcy number Da = 10-7–10-3, porosity e = 0.1–1) and inlet openings are investigated systematically. It is observed that the heat transfer increases as Ri and Re increase.
On Women and their Wombs: Capitalism, Racialization, Feminism

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract This article draws from Françoise Vergès's book, Le ventre des femmes: Capitalisme, racialisation, féminisme,* which traces the history of the colonization of the wombs of Black women by the French state in the 1960s and 1970s through forced abortions and the forced sterilization of women in French foreign territories. Vergès retraces the long history of colonial state intervention in Black women's wombs during the slave trade and post-slavery imperialism, and after World War II, when international institutions and Western states blamed the poverty and underdevelopment of the Third World on women of color. Vergès looks at the feminist and Women's Liberation movements in France in the 1960s and 1970s and asks why, at a time of French consciousness about colonialism brought about by Algerian independence and the social transformations of 1968, these movements chose to ignore the history of the racialization of women's wombs in state politics. In making the liberalization of contraception and abortion their primary aim, she argues, French feminists inevitably ended up defending the rights of white women at the expense of women of color, in a shift from women's liberation to women's rights.
Startup Thailand: A New Innovative Sacrificial Anode for Reinforced Concrete Structures

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Severe damage reinforced concrete structures affected by corrosion are increasing.The study of prevention and protection technique play an important role to cope this urgent issue.Usage of different types of surface coatings on concrete/rebar are highly depend on workmanships of construction.Thus, sacrificial anodes are offered as one of the corrosion prevention technique.The discrete sacrificial anodes are comprise of zinc metal covered with a high alkalinity mortar which sacrifices itself to protect the corrosion of rebar.The key parameter of sacrificial anode in concrete is the activating mortar.It will help the overall cathodic reaction to efficiently protect reinforcing steel.Therefore, a new sacrificial anode was then accomplished in new activating mortar components.Two different activating mortar type have been established.This research investigated the performance of the new sacrificial anodes installed in the concrete prisms, slabs, and concrete water tanks in order to explore the corrosion prevention performance as per NACE [1], ISO [2] and ASTM standards [3][4].This experimental study was tested on ASTM G109 [3], ASTM C876 [4] and small-scale water tank suffering from chloride-induced corrosion of the reinforcement.The performance of the anodes was determined at 28 days age and 365 days after installation to assure the activating time dependency for the mortar.The results of concrete prisms and slabs revealed that the anode polarized the rebar at a significant potential.For the water tank test results, two different concrete type were conducted with exposing chloride solution and assessed using close-interval potential mapping.The results showed a good agreement with enhance the structural durability.
Parameters for Predicting Favorable Responses to Botulinum Toxin in Children With Cerebral Palsy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We sought markers for predicting a favorable outcome of botulinum toxin A injected to the lower-extremity muscles of 26 children with hemiplegic or diplegic cerebral palsy. Clinical assessment preceding and 1 month following injection included gross motor function measure, a modified Ashworth scale, and evaluation of range of motion of knee extension and ankle dorsiflexion. Response to treatment was classified based on a parent questionnaire. The 19 children (73%) considered by their parents as being good responders were compared to the 7 (27%) considered as being poor responders. In the good responders, the preinjection Ashworth scale (spasticity) was significantly higher (P < .05) and gross motor function measure scores (function) were lower (P < .05). Sixty-eight percent of the good responders were nonindependent walkers compared to 14% of the poor responders (P < .05). There were no differences in age, type of cerebral palsy, and dose of injection. An Ashworth scale indicating increased muscle tone, lower gross motor function measure scores, and nonindependent ambulatory status were predictive for a favorable response to botulinum toxin A injections and can guide patient selection and expectations of treatment outcome.

Who's Seeking Whom? Coalition Behavior of a Weaker Player in Buyer–Supplier Relationships

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Our intent with this research is to articulate propositions for coalition building behaviors involving the weaker player in a buyer–supplier relationship. The context of our study begins in dyads, but grows into triads as coalitions are formed. We consider coalition formation arising from power asymmetry in dyadic buyer–supplier relationships. However, when a weaker player pairs up with another player, the context of our study becomes triads (i.e., buyer–supplier–supplier or buyer–buyer–supplier). On the basis of coalition theory, we identify three archetypes and then formulate four coalition conditions under each archetype. Each coalition condition, framed in a supply network triad, constitutes a finding. For instance, we propose that a supplier in a weaker power position in a buyer–supplier–supplier triad would try to create a coalition with another supplier to gain leverage against a common buyer. According to coalition theory, it does not matter whether this new supplier has more or less power compared with the old supplier as long as their coalition collectively yields more power than the buyer. By the same token, two buyers would create a coalition to gain leverage against a common supplier if their coalition collectively yields more power than the supplier. Furthermore, the buyer would create a coalition with a second‐tier supplier if the buyer is in a weaker power position compared with the first‐tier supplier and their coalition would yield more power against the first‐tier supplier. This study marks one of the first attempts at formally theorizing the weaker player in the buyer–supplier relationship. It also marks the first attempt at applying coalition theory to supply chain dynamics and it extends emerging work in supply network triads.
Microstructural changes in postoperative cervical cords with cervical spondylotic myelopathy evaluated by neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging: a preliminary study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction Neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) is a new diffusion magnetic resonance imaging technique that can provide specific microstructural evaluation including nervous tissue density, free water fraction, and neurite orientation dispersion. In this study, we explored the microstructural changes in reduced area (RA) and T2 high signal intensity (T2-HSI) postoperative cervical cords with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) by NODDI. Material and methods A prospective study. CSM patients with surgery planned were recruited in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from September 2016 to March 2017 (excluding other cervical spondylosis and spinal diseases and postoperative stenosis) and underwent postoperative NODDI scans and modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) scoring. The patients were divided into RA and T2-HSI, normal area (NA) and T2-HSI, and NA and non-T2HSI groups. The differences in NODDI metrics and mJOA score between different groups were assessed respectively. Results Nervous tissue density in cervical cords with postoperative constant RA was decreased (RA-T2HSI (0.510, 0.330–0.670) vs. NA-T2HSI (0.585, 0.380–0.870) (p = 0.019), RA-T2HSI vs. NA-nT2HSI (0.620, 0.460–0.770) (p = 0.003)), and a certain degree of free water increase and nervous tissue density decline was observed in postoperative cervical cords with T2-HSI, even if not all of the outcomes were very significant. Moreover, the postoperative mJOA score in combined RA and T2-HSI was lower than that in single T2-HSI. Conclusions The microstructural changes in postoperative RA and T2-HSI cervical cords could be evaluated by NODDI metrics and RA and T2-HSI were useful as brief evaluations for postoperative CSM cervical cords.
Artifcial-intelligence-driven discovery of catalyst \textit{genes} with application to CO2 activation on semiconductor oxides

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Catalytic-materials design requires predictive modeling of the interaction between catalyst and reactants. This is challenging due to the complexity and diversity of structure-property relationships across the chemical space. Here, we report a strategy for a rational design of catalytic materials using the artifcial intelligence approach (AI) subgroup discovery. We identify catalyst \textit{genes} (features) that correlate with mechanisms that trigger, facilitate, or hinder the activation of carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) towards a chemical conversion. The AI model is trained on frst-principles data for a broad family of oxides. We demonstrate that surfaces of experimentally identifed good catalysts consistently exhibit combinations of \textit{genes} resulting in a strong elongation of a C-O bond. The same combinations of \textit{genes} also minimize the OCO-angle, the previously proposed indicator of activation, albeit under the constraint that the Sabatier principle is satisfed. Based on these fndings, we propose a set of new promising catalyst materials for CO$_2$ conversion.
The Acquisition of Drugs and Biologics for Chemical and Biological Warfare Defense. Department of Defense Interactions with the Food and Drug Administration

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Chemical and biological threats confront U.S. military personnel today both overseas and in the continental United States, whether in defensive, peacekeeping, or offensive situations. Defenses against such threats are both medical and nonmedical. Drugs and biologics, mainly vaccines, constitute the primary medical defenses. Consequently, efforts of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to protect American troops require the acquisition of drugs and biologics for chemical and biological warfare (CBW) defense. The objective of this acquisition, as is the case for other acquisitions, is to obtain the desired supply of a given product at an acceptable price. This study includes both drugs and biologics, but it emphasizes the latter (mainly focusing on vaccines, a subset of biologics). Vaccines provide advanced protection against biological warfare threats via immunization of at-risk troops and prior protection is a high priority within DoD. In contrast, drugs are useful mainly in treating already-exposed troops. Vaccine development is also more complicated than drug development because it typically involves manipulating live organisms, whereas drugs consist of more-stable chemical entities. DoD has two distinct roles during the acquisition of drugs and biologics for CBW defense: purchaser and developer. As purchaser of a drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for which a commercial market exists, DoD simply buys what it needs at the market price; DoD acquisition of influenza vaccine is a good example of this.
Materials of performance

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In 1973, Buzz Goodbody made her main-stage solo directorial debut with a production of As You Like It that was led by Eileen Atkins as Rosalind and Richard Pasco as Jaques. In what has become a familiar tactic in productions of this play, the strict, tightly-buttoned formality of the court scenes lent them a vaguely Edwardian than contemporary flavour, while the move to Arden released the lords and lovers into easy-going, casual-contemporary style. This was evident in the most remarked-upon of the production's costume decisions, its liberal use of denim. The programme for the As You Like It concisely articulated both the production's and the RSC's position in the 1980s theatrical marketplace. Twelve years later, the scene would be given a more pointedly metaphorical colouring in Adrian Noble's production, which was led by Juliet Stevenson as Rosalind, Fiona Shaw as Celia and Alan Rickman as Jaques.
Giant villous adenoma of rectum mimicking an infiltrating adenocarcinoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

clinical signs of shock such as hypotension, tachycardia or bradycardia, no heart rate, or loss of consciousness are present, or when one or both of the following groups of symptoms are also present: (1) itching, erythema, urticaria, angioedema and(2) laryngeal edema or spasm or bronchospasm. 10aeney 2 reported on a patient who repeatedly developed angioedema and urticaria two hours after ingestion of omeprazole 20-mg capsules but not after use of enteric-coated granules without the capsule shell (which in Europe consists of gelatin, red iron dioxide, and titanium dioxide), suggesting a causal relationship with the capsule shell and not with omeprazole.The triggering constituent was not identified.Bowl by and Dickens 3 reported a patient who developed angioedema and urticaria immediately after taking oral omeprazole 20 mg, which was confirmed by rechallenge.Challenge with omeprazole granules without the capsule shell was also positive, which suggests an allergy to the drug and not to the capsule.Galindo et al. 5 reported on a patient who developed anaphylaxis a few minutes after infusion of omeprazole 40 mg; evidence of cross-reactivity was provided by skin tests to omeprazole and lansoprazole.The available evidence indicates that the PPIs currently in use can cause anaphylactic reactions.These benzimidazole derivatives are chemically related, observations in a few patients suggest that cross-sensitivity may occur.However, further study is needed to provide more precise information regarding the frequency of anaphylactic reactions during the use of these drugs.Because anaphylaxis is a potentially serious reaction, healthcare professionals need to be aware when prescribing these agents that PPIs can occasionally cause anaphylactic reactions.
Improved Piezoelectric Sensing Performance of P(VDF–TrFE) Nanofibers by Utilizing BTO Nanoparticles and Penetrated Electrodes

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Piezoelectric polymers with good flexibility have attracted tremendous attention in wearable sensors and energy harvesters. As the piezoelectricity of polymers such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene [P(VDF-TrFE)] is lower than that of their ceramic counterparts, various approaches have been employed to improve the piezoelectric output of PVDF-based sensors, such as electrospinning, heat annealing, nanoconfinement, polymer blending, and nanoparticle addition. Here, we report two strategies to improve the piezoelectric sensing performance of polymer-based piezoelectric nanofibers, which include the formation of barium titanate (BTO)/P(VDF-TrFE) composite nanofibers and fabrication of penetrated electrodes to enlarge the interfacial area. BTO/P(VDF-TrFE) nanofibers with a BTO weight fraction of 5 wt % exhibit the maximum β-phase crystallinity and piezoelectricity. The piezoelectric output of the BTO/P(VDF-TrFE) nanofiber mat is significantly improved compared with that of pristine P(VDF-TrFE), which is confirmed by piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) and compression loading tests. In order to form the penetrated electrodes, oxygen (O2) plasma treatment is employed, followed by an electroless plating process. The BTO/P(VDF-TrFE) nanofibers with penetrated electrodes demonstrate increased dielectric constants and enhanced piezoelectric outputs. A BTO/P(VDF-TrFE) nanofiber-based sensor with penetrated electrodes is capable of discerning the energy of a free-falling ball as low as 0.6 μJ and sensing the movement of a walking ant.

Balancing through Technonationalism and its Impact on India’s National Innovation System: A Case Study of Techgentsia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

A nation’s competitive advantage in the modern world is determined by its access to emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, 5G and cloud computing. This competition has led to the imposition of neo-mercantilist policies to promote and protect domestic industries and substantially reduce foreign investments in the technology sector, especially from rival countries. This phenomenon, termed technonationalism, and the reasons for its emergence in the contemporary world and its variants across major economies are analysed using the neo-realist framework of international relations, particularly the theory of internal balancing. An attempt is made to trace the existence of technonationalism in India by examining six overarching policies of the government. The article elucidates how technonationalism drives the national innovation system in a country through the case study of Techgentsia, an Indian company whose software products are promoted by the Government of India towards strengthening India’s national security. It concludes that India’s technonationalist policies are driven by the heightened threat perception in the international system.
Using complex light modulation for holographic applications

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Complex light modulation is the ability to control a light-wave’s phase and amplitude, thereby allowing complete control of the light-wave at any spatial location. The applied optics group at The University of Texas at Austin Electrical and Computer Engineering Department created a fully complex hologram by a combination of spatial light modulators. A digital micromirror device (DMD) was used to produce a precise amplitude profile, and a liquid crystal spatial light modulator (SLM) was used to produce the phase profile. A band-limited 4-f imaging system imaged the DMD onto the SLM to create a fully complex modulated wavefront, which reconstructed a holographic image at the desired location. With this capability, it is possible to create improved imaging methods for the consumer, medical, and defense industries as well as applications in holography. Our previous research has successfully created phase-only holograms (POH), amplitude-only beam-shaping patterns, and published simulation results on full-complex modulation. This thesis provides an in-depth experimental analysis of the full-complex hologram.
Cheminformatics Approaches to the Analysis of Additives for Sustainable Polymeric Materials

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Additives are compounds used for material to increase specific properties. When used for polymers, they extend their life and contribute to environmental sustainability. This article presents the study findings related to 24 additives—antioxidants, UV stabilizers, and quenchers—using cheminformatics methods. The compounds’ characteristics (e.g., number of atoms, functional groups) were emphasized, followed by some descriptors. The Tanimoto coefficient, computed based on the maximum common structure algorithm, and the overlap coefficient indicated the degree of similarity between the molecules. The molecules were grouped by binning and hierarchical clustering (HC) based on the extracted results. In the last case, two scenarios were considered—with four (CL1–CL4) and six clusters (CL1.1, CL1.2, CL2, CL3, CL4.1, CL4.2) being built. Considering the mechanical properties of the compounds and the standard deviation and amplitude of their values, the most homogenous class was CL2 (respectively CL4.2). Considering the toxicity of additives, the highest possible negative impact on the environment is that of the compounds in CL1 and CL3. The clustering results guide the selection of additives with reduced environmental impact, thereby supporting the development of sustainable polymer formulations aligned with circular economy principles.
<i>In vivo</i> Suppression of Allograft Rejection by Cyclic AMP Increasing Agents

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

This study was undertaken to elucidate the possibilities of modulating the survival of allogeneic tissue grafts by administration of cyclic AMP-increasing agents to the graft recipients. Heterotopic grafting of split mouse hearts across a strong H-2 barrier was used. It was found that <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> enterotoxin, which activates adenylate cyclase in mammalian cells, gave a marked prolongation of the graft survival time when given shortly before (but not after) transplantation. Also the administration of a combination of cyclic AMP and theophylline prior to or around transplantation increased graft survival time significantly. In contrast, no effect was obtained with choleragenoid, a membrane-binding cholera toxin analogue devoid of cyclic AMP-increasing activity.

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

The recombinant L. casei stably expressing GFP could colonize mouse intestine. The field planting rule was ileum > caecum > jejunum > duodenum. Our findings indicated that L. casei used as a deliver vector in oral vaccine is feasible, but the impact on intestinal immune mechanism in mice is needed more research.
