Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Development of Segment Automatic Building Intelligent System (SABIS) Toshiyuki Matsushita, Ken-ichi Murano, Testsushi Sonoda, Hitoshi Haino Pages 197-204 (1990 Proceedings of the 7th ISARC, Bristol, United Kingdom, ISSN 2413-5844) Abstract: The shield tunneling method has been developed as a method of constructing tunnels in soft ground. The constructing process is that the shield machine drills the tunnel space, and a ring of segments is built by few number of workerrs using nuts and bolts. Recently, tunnel diameters increased, so that the segment pieces are larger and heavier. there are some problems such as 1) Dangerous work, 2) Workers skill, 3) Shortage of workers. To cope with these problems. NKK has jointly developed the Segment Automatic Building Intelligent System (SABIS) with HAZAMA-GUMI Ltd. In this paper, we describe three development steps, First we design mechanism by CAD system (CATIA ***** robotics ) and simulate its motion, Secondly we made nuts and bolts supply/fastening machine and the mechanism of gripping segments as a verification, Thirdly we made prototype SABIS and try tests to build up a ring of segments, and get a result positioning accuracy is +/- 0.5mm.

Intestinal strongyloidiasis in a patient of myasthenia gravis and diabetes mellitus

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Strongyloidiasis is endemic in tropical and subtropical countries. It can become fatal and life-threatening in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of a 36-year-old female who was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and type II diabetes mellitus. The patient complained of diarrhea with fever, vomiting, and dyspnea. On examination of stool in wet mount, 10–15 motile larvae/high-power field were seen. A methylene blue staining of fecal specimen was done to confirm the larvae as rhabditiform larvae of Strongyloides stercoralis. The patient was successfully treated with ivermectin. The authors recommend that in patients with myasthenia gravis, presenting with gastrointestinal manifestations, strongyloidiasis should be suspected, investigated, and treated accordingly.
Leaf Pathology Detection in Potato and Pepper Bell Plant using Convolutional Neural Networks

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Agriculture is the backbone of world's economy. This sector faces predominant issues in recognizing crop infection, disease prediction, pest control, weed detection and yield prediction leading to the shortfall in both quality and production of food. To ensure food safety, high resilience and increased crop yields, the precise diagnosis and recognition of underlying plant disease along with classification of crops from weeds is vital. The recent advancements in automatic feature extraction and classification techniques using Artificial Intelligence have gained attraction in the field of agriculture and crop protection. This paper proposes a Novel Convolutional Neural Network model for crop disease classification. The model is trained and tested in publicly available Plant Village Dataset with 38 categories and 15 classes. For the experimental analysis, the model is trained with 5 classes which includes potato and pepper bell categories. Further, the performance of the proposed model is analyzed with machine leaning models such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighborhood (K-NN), Random Forest, Decision Tree and have attained the highest accuracy of 91.28%. In the testing phase, it is observed that this model is superior in terms of accuracy, specificity, precision, recall and F1-Score.
Similarity measures for subtraction methods in medical imaging

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The authors recommend the use of an entropy similarity measure for the registration of image pairs prior to subtraction in medical imaging (e.g. digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or MR mammography). A comparison of cross-correlation function, cross-structure function and deterministic sign change to the new entropy similarity measure reveals the advantages of the latter. The data driven approach is especially suitable for registration of two images which are identical except for some structures visible in one but not in the other image.
Behaviour of Batter Micropiles Subjected to Vertical and Lateral Loading Conditions

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Micropiles are drilled and grouted piles having diameter between 100 to 250 mm. Due to its small diameter, it is suitable for low headroom and limited work area conditions. It can be installed without noise nuisance, without vibrations to surrounding soils and structures and without disruption to the production operations in industries which makes micropiles suitable for underpinning and seismic retrofitting of structures. It is necessary to therefore understand the behaviour of micropiles under different loading conditions. This work is on vertical and battered micropiles with different length/diameter ratio (L/D) subjected to vertical and lateral loading conditions. Batter angles had a significant influence on both the vertical and lateral load carrying capacity. The ultimate vertical load was found to increase upto a 30° batter. The ultimate lateral load was found to increase significantly with increasing L/D ratios upto an L/D ratio of 30 for vertical and 48 for battered piles, beyond which the increase was found to be not significant. In general, negative battered micropiles offered more lateral resistance than positive battered micropiles. The results of the study indicated that the ultimate load capacity and mode of failure of the micropiles are a function of the angle of batter, direction of batter and the L/D ratio for vertically and laterally loaded micropiles.
Abstract 10200: Enhanced Human VIC Calcification and Altered RNA Expression in Dynamic Culture with Induction Media in Microphysiological Systems

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Aortic valve (AV) calcification is the main characteristic in AV stenosis affected by fibrosis, endothelial cell layer damage and altered shear stress. Osteogenic differentiation of valvular interstitial cells (VIC) is research focus. VIC culturing in micro-physiological systems (MPS) that allows the adjustment of flow rate/shear force and oxygen concentration are new approaches to evaluate AV disease processes. Culture media inducing VIC calcification were applied in dynamic MPS VIC culture to investigate the impact on calcification and gene expression. Methods: A MPS able to modulate fluidic conditions (pulsatile flow of 2.7 μl/s resulting in average shear forces of 0.04 dyn/cm 2 ) was applied for human VICs. ADGMedium (50 μM ascorbic acid phosphate, 100 nM dexamethasone,10 mM β-glycerophosphate) was compared with PMedium (2 mmol/L NaH 2 PO 4 , 0.3 mM ascorbic acid) and standard DMEM (72 h). VIC viability was proven using a lactate dehydrogenase assay. Calcium accumulation was quantified in dynamic vs. static culture and mRNA expression of ACTA2, FN1, COL1A1, COL3A1, RUNX2 and SOX9 was quantified via qRT-PCR. Results: Viability of MPS VIC cultures was confirmed. ADGM induced calcium accumulation was significantly enhanced to 5.1 ± 1.4 Ca 2+ mol/kg protein in dynamic but not static culture compared to static DMEM control (0.1 ± 0.2 Ca 2+ mol/kg protein; n=4). PM resulted in a significantly higher calcium level compared to static DMEM control in static and dynamic chip culture (7.8 ± 5.2 and 9.2 ± 1.6 Ca 2+ mol/kg protein). Myofibroblastic ACTA2, Fibronectin and osteogenic factor RUNX2 were significantly induced but SOX9 (prevents AV calcification) was downregulated in ADGM but not in PM and independent from culture dynamics. Collagen COL1A1 mRNA level was significantly enhanced two-fold in ADGM and PM but exclusively in dynamic culture. An induction of COL3A1 was detected in ADGM dynamic but not static culture vs. DMEM counterparts. Conclusion: Dynamic culture significantly enhances calcium content in ADGM induced VIC cultures accompanied with enhanced collagen expression. MPS culture allows the investigation of VIC pathogenesis at defined shear forces and seeking the combined adjustment of oxygen supply. SMT and FSo contributed equally
COMMUNICATION IMPACT: A CONCEPTUAL MODEL ANALYSIS OF INDIVIDUAL PREDISPOSITIONS AND THE IMPACT OF A COUNTY CIVIL DEFENSE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM.

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The study deals with communication at three levels. The first level involves the development of a generalized model of the process by which communication achieves impact. The second level is the operationalization of the impact model. The third level is testing the degree to which the model predicts the response of members of the potential audience to a specific communication event. The communication impact model developed in this study takes the intent and content of the communication message as given and then proceeds to examine the responses which the total potential audience makes. A basic notion included in the model is that in receiving and responding to a message, the receiver must perform several functions. These functions can be logically integrated into a flow of action, the stages of action representing a series of communication filters. Three major filter stages are delineated: attention, comprehension and acceptance. The attention filter stage has four sub-stages: awareness, attend decision, differential exposure and secondary contact. The acceptance stage has two sub-stages: attitudinal acceptance and overt action. Another basic notion included in the model is that the response of a receiver at any given filter stage is not random. Rather the receiver is predisposed--through his previous experience, through what he perceives to be his interest--to react to a given message in a predictable manner. The communication event analyzed is the Midwest County Civil Defense Exhibit. The findings of this analysis strongly support the notions included in the impact model. Implications of these findings for civil defense communicators are drawn from the findings. (Author)
Removal of Carbon Tetrachloride from Contaminated Groundwater Environment by Adsorption Method

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

This study describes the removal of carbon tetrachloride (CT) in simulated groundwater sample by an adsorption method using quaternary ammonium salt modified bentonite as adsorbent. The morphology of bentonite before and after modification was observed through scanning electron microscope (SEM). Moreover, the effects of bentonite dosage, adsorption time and temperature on removal rate of CT were investigated. The SEM results showed that, after natural calcium-benonite is modified by quaternary ammonium salt, the particle clearance of the modified bentonite obviously increased and the surface property changed from originally hydrophilic to hydrophobic, enabling it to effectively adsorb and remove CT from water. The optimal adsorption conditions obtained were bentonite dosage 5.0 g/L, adsorption time 2 hours and temperature 30°C. Under these optimized conditions, the removal efficiency of CT reached above 70% when modified bentonite was used in treating a real groundwater polluted by CT.
An Outcome-Based Approach for Ensuring Regulatory Compliance of Business Processes

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

In service industries, such as healthcare, catering, tourism, etc., there exist regulations that require organisations’ service comply with the regulations. More and more regulations in the service sector are, or are aimed to be, outcome-focused regulations. An outcome prescribed in the regulation is what users should experience or achieve when the regulated business processes are compliant. Service providers need to proactively ensure that the outcomes specified in the regulations have been achieved prior to conducting the relevant part of the business or prior to inspectors discovering noncompliance. Current approaches check system requirements or business processes, not outcomes, against regulations and thus this still leaves uncertain as to whether what the users actually experience are really achieved. In this thesis, we propose an approach for assessing the compliance of process outcomes and improve the noncompliance. The approach is designed through the U.K’s.

Intrusion Detection for Enhancing RPL Security

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Internet of things is a new paradigm that connects the internet to the physical objects of different domain viz. home automation, human health services, and industrial process automation and environmental monitoring. It is deeply presented in our daily activities through various devices. The devices connected with the internet bring many benefits but simultaneously bringing the security issues also. For protecting the network and information systems the intrusion detection system is an important tool. However traditional techniques used for intrusion detection are not sufficient to protect the network consists of specific characteristics like constraint resourced devices and specific protocol stacks. In this paper, we proposed an intrusion detection system for RPL (Routing Protocol for Low power and lossy networks) which is focused on WSN and constrained resources. Proposed IDS follows detection of an attack, IDS placement strategy, and validation process.
Impact of Adulteration on Physico-chemical Characteristics of Marketed Raw Milk

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

This study was conducted to determine the impact of adulteration on physico-chemical and coliforms content of marketed raw milk. For this purpose, 300 milk samples were collected from urban and peri-urban localities of Jhang, Pakistan. The results showed that 13.3%, 9.7%, 9%, 8.3% and 5.7% of the tested milk samples were positive for cane sugar, formalin, boric acid, H2O2 and urea, respectively besides the highest adulteration of water (95%). Other adulterants included soap (4.7%), sodium chloride (3.7%) and quaternary ammonium compounds (3.3%). The incidence of cane sugar and starch adulteration was highest in winter while formalin and H2O2 in summer season. The compositional quality of milk was also deteriorated by relatively lowered concentrations of lactose, fats, total solids, solids-not-fat (SNF) and proteins. Likewise, the pH and freezing point of contaminated milk samples were comparatively higher than the corresponding standard values. Furthermore, the adulterated milk samples were highly contaminated with E. coli (42.5%) and Enterobacter aerogenes (27.5%) as compared to non-adulterated milk. It was concluded that milk adulterationin the study area predominates round the year badly deteriorating the physico-chemical characteristic of milk besides contaminating it with injurious adulterants and water-borne pathogens posing potential health risks to the consumers.
La normalizzazione del lessico artistico francese: il «dizionario» di Félibien

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

During the reign of Louis XIV, the figurative arts serve the royal propaganda and glorification of the sovereign. The essay Des Principes de l’Architecture, de la Sculpture et de la Peinture (1676) was written by the historian André Félibien with the aim of describing arts during the Grand Siècle. This essay contains one of the first specialised dictionaries on artistic lexicon. In this article, we aim to analyse the structure and contents of the dictionary (nomenclature, syntactic and semantic categories, definitions, specialised marks). Moreover, we will focus on the preface of the essay, in which the author describes the difficulties encountered in the terminological description of the artistic domain.

Zero Speed Sensorless Control of Induction Motor with Ideal Voltage Source

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In the speed sensorless control of the induction motor, the machine parameters (especially the rotor resistance R2) have a strong influence to the speed estimation. In addition, the output voltage error due to the dead time and the voltage drop of the inverter influence on the rotor flux estimation, but the simultaneous compensation of the output voltage and the stator resistance R1 is very difficult. In this paper the new algorithm of R2 estimation with utilizing only stator current is proposed. In the high frequency range, the R2 is estimated in the transient state, and in the very low frequency range, R2 is estimated in proportion to the estimated R1 when the ideal voltage source by the power op-amp is used instead of the voltage source inverter to avoid the output voltage error. In use of these algorithms, the low speed estimation was possible and the zero speed control was achieved under the 5_??_40% load condition in two motors. This paper clarified that the zero speed estimation is possible with the stator and rotor resistance estimations when the output voltage is ideal.
Indian National Music

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract Many musicians like the Carnatic vocalist MS Subbalakshmi became a national and perhaps nationalist icon. Since nothing in India is singular, and the idea of a national music, or a national dance or a national theatre based on singularity, is really not valid. There are and have been two types of Indian classical music, at least eight kinds of classical dance. Plurality is dominant in the classical realm as well. But there was definitely an attempt to assert that we exist as a people and this is our creative wealth. And this was more evident perhaps in music and dance.
The Future of Artificial Intelligence for Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnostics

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a leading cause of death, yet there is no disease-modifying drug therapy currently available. It is critical to establish a diagnosis of AD before clinical system onset so that drug therapies can start earlier. Unfortunately, this is not the current standard practice. Artificial intelligence (AI) holds tremendous promise for identifying AD related structural changes in brain scan images. This paper discusses the recent applications and potential future directions for AI in AD diagnostics. Annual brain scanning and computer vision-assisted early diagnosis is encouraged, so that disease-modifying drug therapy could begin earlier in the progressive pathology.
Chemical Weed Control Systems in Orchard

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

In order to establish the chemical weed control systems in orchard, efficacy of glyphosate and paraquat with oxyfluorfen, simazine and alachlor were evaluated in pear and peach orchards. Dominant weed species existed before glyphosate or paraquat application were Artemesia princeps, Calystegia japonica, Erigeron canadensis, and Lepidium apetalum, but Digitaria sanguinalis was one of the most dominant weeds throughout growing season of fruit trees. Gtyphosate at 120g/10a followed by oxyfluorfen at 04g/10a drastically reduced number of weeds and fresh weight of weeds and was found to be the most effective method for controlling weeds in orchard. Paraquat at 100g/10a followed by oxyfluorfen at 117g/10a and sequential application of glyphosate at 120g/10a also provided good weed control.
Optimism about College Life and Academic Performance in College

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The hypothesis that optimism about college is associated with academic performance was tested. The Optimism About College Life Scale was administered to 67 male and 36 female entering college freshmen, and scores correlated (.22) with grade-point averages two years later. College optimism also was significantly associated ( r = .22) with high-school grades, suggesting that the more able students are more optimistic about college and obtain higher grades in college. When the effect of high-school grades was held constant, however, the association between optimism and college academic performance diminished to a non-significant r of .17. Research on self-concept variables and college performance might also profit from a similar analysis of the role of previous academic performance.
A nonlinear eigenvalue problem in $\Bbb R$ and multiple solutions of nonlinear Schrödinger equation

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Consider the nonlinear Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem \begin{align*} u''-Q(x)u & + \lambda(Mu+f(u))=0,\qquad x\in{\mathbb R }, \\ \lim\limits_{|x|\to\infty} u(x) & =\lim\limits_{|x|\to\infty} u'(x) =0, \end{align*} where the potential $Q$ is positive and coercive, the function $f(s)$ behaves like $s^p$, $p>1$, $M$ is a positive constant and $\lambda$ is a positive parameter. When the domain is a bounded interval, Rabinowitz global bifurcation theory applies to this problem, showing the existence of unbounded branches of nontrivial solutions. Even more, Rabinowitz proved that the branches bend back. This last fact has as a consequence a multiplicity result for solutions of a related nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. In this paper we prove that this result holds true when the domain is ${\mathbb R }$. The main point of the article is the proof that the branches bend back, the place where the noncompactness of ${\mathbb R }$ poses a difficulty.
Disorders of gender and fertility

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

This chapter discusses disorders of sex development, listing terminology, proper communication, family history, hormonal assessment, genetic assessment, and management strategies like surgery and psychosocial therapy. Disorders of sex development are a wide range of conditions with diverse pathophysiology that most often present in the newborn or the adolescent. Affected newborns usually present with atypical genitalia, whereas adolescents present with atypical sexual development during the pubertal years. The chapter also describes gender dysmorphia, its physical symptoms, hormonal causes, and drug-related or surgical treatment options. It finally discusses the epidemiology, clinical features, and management of infertility in both sexes, and the causes behind infertility, like hypogonadism, endometriosis, intrauterine factors, autoimmunity, primary testicular disease, varicocele, and ejaculatory disorders.
