Grammar of Dissent? Theology and the Language of Religious Education

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract The prosperity of theology at Universities in this country is, for better or worse, linked to the prosperity or otherwise of Religious Education in the nation's schools where pupils first learn the grammar and vocabulary of belief. Yet despite one of the aspirations of recent reforms of the subject being to harmonize student transition from secondary to tertiary level, other voices have been raised which question the validity of that project. This article considers why religious education is currently such a contested pedagogical space, what kind of alternatives are being proposed and why Newman's Idea of a University and an ‘inclusive’ understanding of Theology might inform a coherent Catholic response.
Design by optimization and comparative evaluation of vesicular gels of etodolac for transdermal delivery

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Aim of the present study was to design vesicular gels of etodolac loaded liposomes and ethosomes for effective transdermal delivery. The physicochemical properties of vesicular gels were compared with 45% v/v ethanolic etodolac solution and commercial product (PROXYM®). The liposomes were prepared by film hydration technique whereas ethosomes were prepared by cold method respectively. Both the systems were characterized for various physicochemical properties. The size range of liposomes shows 186 nm-363 nm whereas for ethosomes 170 nm-261 nm respectively. The zeta potential of optimized liposomes and ethosomes was found to be -36.5 mV and -48.3 mV, respectively. The highest %EE of liposomes and ethosomes shows 71.5% and 78.5%, respectively. The permeation of liposomes shows in the range of 67.50%-86.06% whereas ethosomes shows 52.30%-99.49%, respectively. The optimization was done by 32 experimental design. The optimized vesicular dispersions were subjected to gel preparation using carbopol 940 NF. The prepared liposomal gel (ETO-LG) and ethosomal gel (ETO-EG) were optimized and characterized. The vesicular gels showed desirable results compared to other test formulations.
Benchmarking Geant4 photonuclear process model for the photo-induced reaction of deformed nuclei in the GDR region

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The Geant4 photonuclear process is benchmarked by comparing it with experimental data to verify the ability of the Geant4 toolkit to simulate the photo-induced reaction on deformed nuclei in the Giant Dipole Resonance (GDR) region. The simulation results are compared with experimental data of the deformed nuclei (153Eu, 160Gd, 165Ho, and 186W) targets in terms of both the average neutron energies and the photonuclear cross-sections. The agreement between the calculated results of the Geant4 photonuclear process model and the experimental measurements is analyzed.

Flavor Chemistry of Animal Foods

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

For a terrestrial animal, flavor may be defined as the composite sensation resulting from placing something in the mouth. Therefore, flavor may include taste, olfactory, vomeronasal, trigeminal and other chemical sense inputs as well as tactile, temperature and proprioceptive cues. Thus, the subjective sensation we call flavor is the result of interactions of a complex of receptors. The bulk of experimental work in this field has focussed upon one class of receptors and associated CNS processes, the taste system. There are powerful arguments that the taste system is a uniquely important component in regulating flavor perception and food intake (e.g., 1,2), but other sensory components significantly influence flavor perception (e.g., 3, 4).

Intrusion Detection Using an Ensemble Deep Learning Approach

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Today's cyber society faces a serious intrusion detection security issue. Recent years have seen a sharp rise in network intrusion attacks, raising severe privacy and security concerns. The complexity of cyber-security threats is increasing due to technological improvement, making it impossible for the current detection methods to handle the problem. So, creating an intelligent and efficient network intrusion detection system would be crucial to resolving this problem. In this paper, we created an intelligent intrusion detection system that can detect different networking attacks using deep learning approaches, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN). We used an ensemble model of CNN and DNN which provides us with great accuracy. Before being used for model training and testing, the obtained data is analysed and pre-processed. Also, in order to choose the optimum model for the network intrusion detection system, we compared the outcomes of our proposed solution and evaluated the performance of the proposed solution using several evaluation matrices.
Eye Movements and Abducens Motoneuron Behavior During Cholinergically Induced REM Sleep

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

STUDY OBJECTIVES: The injection of cholinergic drugs in the pons has been largely used to induce REM sleep as a useful model to study different processes during this period. In the present study, microinjections of carbachol in the nucleus reticularis pontis oralis (NRPO) were performed to test the hypothesis that eye movements and the behavior of extraocular motoneurons during induced REM sleep do not differ from those during spontaneous REM sleep. METHODS: Six female adult cats were prepared for chronic recording of eye movements (by means of the search-coil technique) and electroencephalography, electromyography, ponto-geniculo-occipital (PGO) waves at the lateral geniculate nucleus, and identified abducens motoneuron activities after microinjections of the cholinergic agonist carbachol into the NRPO. RESULTS: Unilateral microinjections (n = 13) of carbachol in the NRPO induced REM sleep-like periods in which the eyes performed a convergence and downward rotation interrupted by phasic complex rapid eye movements associated to PGO waves. During induced-REM sleep abducens motoneurons lost their tonic activity and eye position codification, but continued codifying eye velocity during the burst of eye movements. CONCLUSION: The present results show that eye movements and the underlying behavior of abducens motoneurons are very similar to those present during natural REM sleep. Thus, microinjection of carbachol seems to activate the structures responsible for the exclusive oculomotor behavior observed during REM sleep, validating this pharmacological model and enabling a more efficient exploration of phasic and tonic phenomena underlying eye movements during REM sleep.

INS-assisted high sensitivity gps receivers for degraded signal navigation

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This paper proposes a novel architecture for ultra-tight integration of a High Sensitivity Global Positioning System (HSGPS) receiver with an Inertial Navigation System (INS), to address the issue of GPS tracking and positioning in degraded signal environments. By enhancing signal tracking loops in receivers through the use of optimal controllers/estimators and aiding from external source such as INS, the capabilities of the GPS receiver can be enhanced to provide the positioning in indoor and urban canyon environments. The proposed approach is distinct from the commonly used ultra-tightly coupled GPS/INS approaches, and absorbs different tracking enhancement technologies used in typical HSGPS receivers, multi-channel co-operated GPS receivers and the current ultra-tightly coupled GPS/INS methods. The method consists of three loops in signal tracking: sophisticated conventional Delay Lock Loops (DLL) and Phase Lock Loops (PLL) in all individual signal tracking channels, external INS aiding loop and multi-channel cooperated tracking loop, namely CO-OP loop. The signal tracking strategy is described, with specific focus on the discussion of the role of CO-OP loop in the developed ultra-tightly coupled GPS/INS. Furthermore, the effect of inertial measurement unit (IMU) quality and the effect of receiver oscillator noise and coherent integration time on weak signal tracking are also analyzed in this paper. To perform ultra-tight integration, an INS simulator is developed, and static and dynamic field tests were simulated to analyze the system performance. The test results show that, the designed INS-aided GPS receiver can track the incoming weak GPS signals down to 15 dBHz without carrier phase locked, or 25 dB-Hz with carrier phase locked. When there are multiple strong GPS signals in view, the other weak signals can be tracked down to 15 dB-Hz with carrier phase locked.
Stretch-induced network reconfiguration of collagen fibres in the human facet capsular ligament

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Biomaterials can display complex spatial patterns of cellular responses to external forces. Revealing and predicting the role of these patterns in material failure require an understanding of the statistical dependencies between spatially distributed changes in a cell's local biomechanical environment, including altered collagen fibre kinematics in the extracellular matrix. Here, we develop and apply a novel extension of network science methods to investigate how excessive tensile stretch of the human cervical facet capsular ligament (FCL), a common source of chronic neck pain, affects the local reorganization of collagen fibres. We define collagen alignment networks based on similarity in fibre alignment angles measured by quantitative polarized light imaging. We quantify the reorganization of these networks following macroscopic loading by describing the dynamic reconfiguration of network communities, regions of the material that display similar fibre alignment angles. Alterations in community structure occur smoothly over time, indicating coordinated adaptation of fibres to loading. Moreover, flexibility, a measure of network reconfiguration, tracks the loss of FCL's mechanical integrity at the onset of anomalous realignment (AR) and regions of AR display altered community structure. These findings use novel network-based techniques to explain abnormal collagen fibre reorganization, a dynamic and coordinated multivariate process underlying tissue failure.
Occupational dose assessment of 64Cu-ATSM in a veterinary setting

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

64Cu-ATSM is an emerging radiopharmaceutical for diagnostic use in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and has potential utility for radiation therapy but to date there are no studies that assess the occupational doses delivered to workers in either a hospital or veterinary environment. This study consisted of canine patients that were recruited at the Colorado State University James L. Voss Veterinary Teaching Hospital (VTH). The study was aimed at determining the radiation dose to veterinary workers from clinical PET/CT procedures using 64Cu-ATSM. To determine the dose to the workers, each worker was assigned two Electronic Personal Dosimeters (EPDs) to be worn on the chest and waist during the entirety of each procedure. The workers monitored during this study involved included a radiobiologist, a nuclear medicine technician, an anesthesiologist, and a veterinary surgeon. Seven canine patients were imaged over a ten month period with an average mass of 33.7 kg (a range of 20.0 - 55.1 kg) with an average injected activity of 5 MBq kg-1. The dose range for the radiobiologist was 2 -17 µSv, for the nuclear medicine technician 0 -14 µSv, for the anesthesiologist 0 - 12 µSv, and for the surgeon 0 -10 µSv. In a comparison between the results of this study and published literature on occupational exposures from human/veterinary FDG PET/CT procedures, 64Cu-ATSM veterinary PET/CT procedures, on a per patient bias, exposed workers to less radiation.
Combining image and text features for medicinal plants image retrieval

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper proposes a new approach for Indonesian medicinal plant image retrieval by combining leaf image and text features. Fuzzy Local Binary Patterns were used to extract texture features based on leaf image of medicinal plants. To improve the image similarity, we proposed Probabiistic Neural Network to calculate the weight of image features. The text features were extracted from medicinal plant documents in Indonesian language. Experiments result show that combining image and texture features in medicinal plant image retrieval improves the performance. The Average Precision (AVP) has increased from 0.3138 to 0.7081.
Assessment of acute pain in cats: signs, tools and limitations

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

Recent advances in pain assessment in companion animals represent a tenacious, painstaking and time-consuming dedication to improving animal welfare. Attitudes and knowledge about pain assessment, particularly in cats, have changed dramatically in the past few decades, representing a very obvious shift to prioritising analgesia, which is important from an ethical and humane standpoint. Time for training and practising pain assessment must be created in the veterinary team, to ensure consistency for intervention and improving practice. Adopting pain assessment as one of the ‘vital signs’ in the hospitalised patient evaluation is a progressive and necessary step. Discussing pain assessment with cat owners, and providing resources about pain assessment, will optimise welfare, strengthen the human-animal bond and ultimately improve the client-practice relationship and reputation.

Pulse pressure does not predict the response of diabetic nephropathy to glucose-lowering therapy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

We aimed to study whether pulse pressure (PP) predicts the response of diabetic nephropathy to glucose-lowering treatment. Patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes were followed for decrease in albuminuria after insulin/oral-hypoglycemic treatment. A total of 143 patients were followed for a median time of 10.5 months in a cohort study. Fasting blood sugar and HbA1C significantly decreased, while systolic, diastolic and pulse pressures remained constant during intervention. Median albuminuria decreased from 18.4 mg/day [10–40] to 16.4 mg/day [9–28] at the end of study (p-value < 0.005). The number of patients with normo/micro/macro-albuminuria changed from 98/36/9 to 108/31/4 (p-value < 0.001). No significant difference in baseline PP (47.5 ±1.61 vs. 45.9 ±1.81 mmHg; p-value = 0.51) or final PP (47.0 ±2.41 vs. 49.4 ±2.38 mmHg; p-value = 0.47) existed between those with decreased and increased albuminuria. PP was not a significant predictor of albuminuria changes in receiver operating characteristic curve (p-value = 0.77) and regression (p-value = 0.98) analyses. Benefits of glycemic control in diabetic nephropathy are independent of PP.

Electromechanical modeling and testing of a novel electrically-driven coaxial, co-rotating rotor system

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A novel thrust control method for an electrically-driven coaxial, co-rotating (stacked) rotor system by controlling rotor index angle, or azimuthal spacing is described. The stacked rotor comprises of two 2-bladed rotors spinning in the same direction at the same rotor speed, with a fixed axial spacing and variable azimuthal spacing. Changing the azimuthal spacing by approximately 22 degrees results in a 17% change in the total rotor system thrust. An electromechanical model of the rotor and drive system was developed with a blade element aerodynamic model and field oriented control of two phase-synchronized electric motors, each driving one rotor of the stacked system. The model was validated with measurements on a single, 2 m diameter rotor in hover driven by a single electric motor at constant rotor speed as well as during transient rotor speed changes. The validated model was used to explore the behavior of the system in response to a commanded change in rotor azimuthal spacing. At a blade loading of C [subscript T] / [sigma] = 0.08, and a rotor speed of 1200 RPM, computations indicated that a 5° change in azimuthal spacing could be achieved in less than 0.2 s, or less than five rotor revolutions, requiring a transient power increase of 12% the mean power. This may lead to total thrust variations of 9% at an axial spacing of 0.73 chord. These results indicate the feasibility of achieving small changes in thrust at a high bandwidth with a small increase in motor power output.
Low-frequency axisymmetric waves in blood vessels of constant cross-section: an asymptotic approach

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The asymptotic methods of shell theory are used to study the propagation of axisymmetric waves in blood vessels of constant cross-section. The initial equations are simplified using the assumption that the shell radius is small compared with the wave length. We show that the terms corresponding to the shell inertia cannot be omitted if it is required to describe not only the pressure wave but also the longitudinal wave. We study the influence of external fixation on the pressure wave. In this case, we compare the following two models: in the first model, the ambient medium is modelled by elastic and damping elements uniformly distributed over the shell exterior surface and by additional masses; in the second model, the ambient medium is represented by an infinite elastic space with a cylindrical cavity where the vessel is placed. On the interface between the elastic space and the vessel, we pose the full contact conditions. We show that, from the qualitative standpoint, both models lead to the same result: the pressure wave in the first approximation is a wave in the shell whose walls cannot move in the longitudinal direction. We asymptotically integrate the original equations and hence obtain a one-dimensional equation for the bulk blood flow.
A Study on the Effects of Perceived Risk on Food Image and Behavioral Intention in Food Tourism : Focused on Jeju

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Food is working as a charming factor that attracts tourists to the tourism destination. However, it would be necessary to cope with changes in tourism market by the Corona 19. Thus, the main objective of this study is to examine the effects of perceived risk on food image and behavioral intention in food tourism, and also the mediating roles of food image in the influence relationship between perceived risk and behavioral intention. For about six weeks from July 1st 2020 to August 9th 2020, a survey was conducted targeting potential tourists who were residing in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do and planning the food tourism to Jeju, and total 331 questionnaires of 350 collected questionnaires were used for the final analysis. In the results of the analysis, the perceived risk had negative(-) effects on food image and behavioral intention while the food image also had negative(-) effects on behavioral intention. The results of this study showed that the tendency to visit would be decreased when the negative food image was perceived by tourists. And the food image played the partial mediating roles in the influence relationship between perceive risk and behavioral intention. In order to be beneficial to both tourism and food service industry, the tourists should be attracted by giving psychologically-safe images in the every aspect of food, experience, and facilities. This study might provide important suggestions to the future researches in the aspect of suggesting the implications on the possibility to overcome the market economy by verifying the importance of securing the stability of domestic travel at this point in time.
