Preparation of conductive polymer composites for micro fuel cells (II)

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

This project is aimed on the preparation of the binary and ternary composites of polyamide 66 (PA66), conductive carbon black (CCB) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) fabricated by a melt-mixing technique for micro fuel-cell application. Injection molding was used to form the composites into different sample shapes. The complimentary effect of CCB and MWCNTs at different compositions on DC and AC electrical properties of the ternary nanocomposites has been studied systematically. Besides, the electron conducting mechanisms of the binary and ternary composite systems were modeled using the equivalent electrical circuit analogy of a resister connected parallel to a capacitor. The mechanism behind this dramatic increment in the electrical conductivity of the ternary composites has been proposed. Finally, the formation of conductive network through the complementary effect between MWCNTs and CCB in the PA66 matrix has been explained based on not only the DC and AC electrical properties measured but also the field emission electron microscopic micrographs.

A classification of telescopy has been developed on the example of modern English colloquialisms. The author considers compressive colloquialisms with symbolic gender, linguoculturological and other semantics, taking into account polysemy, homonymy, synonymy, antonymy.
Venice in Poetry and Prose: Adam Wiedemann’s Visit to the City

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The main aim of the article is to identify key interpretation issues in two texts by Adam Wiedemann. Both texts feature contemporary literary pictures of visits to Venice – the Polish author wrote a short story (Sens życia. Opowiadanie śródziemnomorskie, 1998) and a poem (Tramwaj na Lido, 2015) about his journeys to Italy. Those textual visions of the urban space of Venice show that Wiedemann is fully aware of many similar attempts made earlier yet still strives to stress his distinctness, creating a record of meetings of the contemporary visitor with the unique phenomenon of the unusual urban phenomenon.
An examination of the structural properties and socially constructive aspects of authenticity: A reconsideration of Carl Rogers’ personality theory

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

In the last few decades, there has been a surge of interest in the notion of authenticity as a valid variable of individual differences. While research has demonstrated the variable’s association with well-being, Carl Rogers’ personality approach further suggests that people who are deemed to be more authentic are also more socially constructive members of society. As there is minimal research to date on the prosocial and ecological aspects of authenticity, the aim of this work is to examine the structural properties of authenticity, as well as the association with more socially constructive states of being. The results from the four studies undertaken in this study are reported in six chapters. It is shown that there is both a structural similarity and a considerable confluence between the seemingly divergent concepts of authenticity and mindfulness. Authenticity was found to moderate the association between self-compassion and the kindness, common humanity, mindfulness, and indifference subscales of the Compassion Scale. It was also found that authenticity has significant and positive association with self-transcendence, a helping attitude and environmentally considerate behaviour. Self-transcendence was seen to have a mediating effect on the associations between authenticity and the helping attitudes of altruism, receiving and giving. In addition, authenticity was found to be associated with the humility items of openness, self-forgetfulness and focus on others. It was also seen that there is significantly positive correlation between authenticity, forgiveness, and mindfulness, even when social desirability is partialled out. Furthermore, authenticity partially mediates the association between mindfulness and the two subscales of the Heartland Forgiveness Scale: forgiveness of self and forgiveness of situations. Measurement of authenticity, performed across two data sets using Exploratory Factor Analysis followed by Confirmatory Factor Analysis, is perhaps best represented by a two-component model which presents a classification between outer and inner expressions of authenticity. The sum of these results advance knowledge of the correlates of authenticity and suggest that authenticity is a quality that is likely to not only benefit the individual, but also others and the environment. Further research that uses more developed methods would therefore be useful to continue the line of enquiry that has been initiated in this study, particularly in terms of the psychometric development of the authenticity construct. This research is necessary to better represent both how the inner and outer manifestations of authenticity are related to each other, and their influence on behaviour.

Beam Test of a Large Area n-on-n Silicon Strip Detector with Fast Binary Readout Electronics

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

A large area (60 mm × 60 mm) n-bulk and n-strip readout silicon strip detector was prototyped for the ATLAS SCT detector. Detector modules of 12 cm strip length were made by butting two detectors. One of the 12 cm modules was irradiated with protons to a fluence of 1.2 × 10 14 p/cm 2 . A beam test was carried out for the non-irradiated and the irradiated detector modules. Efficiency, noise occupancy and performance in the edge regions were analyzed using the beam test data. High efficiency was obtained for the nonirradiated detector and for the irradiated detector for bias voltages down to about half the full depletion voltage. The noise occupancy was &lt;2 × 10 -4 for the 12 cm strips. The measurement of the edge region exhibited a difference in the sensitivity under the bias resistance where no extension of the n + -implant was fabricated. I. INTRODUCTION A large area silicon strip detector (60 mm × 60 mm) with n-strip readout electrodes on an n-bulk substrate was fabricated t...
Lightweight Security for MQTT-SN

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This study discusses a method to secure Message Queuing Telemetry Transport-Sensor network (MQTT-SN). MQTT-SN is a popular data communication protocol used in developing IoT applications and can be secured by augmenting it with a security scheme. In this work, several lightweight encryption schemes to be used in tandem with MQTT-SN were tested and analysed. The best algorithm is identified based on the speed of encryption and overall power consumption when implemented in IoT environment. It was found that L-BLOCK is the overall performer in securing MQTT-SN and should be highly considered when developing IoT applications.Â

Superparamagnetism Found in Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor Nanowires: Mn-Doped CdSe

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) nanowires (NWs), Mn-doped CdSe, were successfully prepared in a gold-catalyzed vapor-transport deposition process. It was demonstrated for the first time that upon incorporation of Mn of very limited concentrations, the CdSe NWs exhibited enhanced ferromagnetism at T < 40 K and turned superparamagnetic at relatively high temperatures. This finding would extend the application range of DMS NWs into the biolabeling and bioimaging fields.
Real-time 3D sound system with head tracking

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Due to the increasing prevalence of 3D movies and 3D gaming, there is a corresponding demand among the consumers for a better listening environment while playing 3D games or watching 3D movies. Nowadays, the usage of headphone is rather popular in order to create a more desirable and personal sound field for consumers. Nonetheless, the anticipated sound scene normally moves with the end user while listening to the earphone. This is not in line with the actual experience in our daily life. With the monitoring of the head movement, it is possible to reduce this disparity by connecting the head-motion sensors to the earphone. This project is mainly to design a real-time 3D sound system with head tracking. To design such system, author has read a lot of thesis about 3-D sound system and HRTF filter. Enough hands on excises are also essential to realize the real-time 3D sound system well. In this project, the head tracking function is to provide the position parameters of the listener’s head. With proper audio filtering, the sound track will be processed based on the position parameters to compensate the head displacement. Eventually, the filtered sound track will provide listener with an immersive 3D sound environment similar to loudspeaker listening experience. In the implementation of this system, listener can hear the 3D sound effect difference from -80 degrees to +80 degrees azimuth angle when they rotate their head. At the meantime, this system is extremely suitable for sound application in 3D movie and 3D gaming.
Pope, Emperor and Rome

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In the great Italian enterprise which was now under way, none, at first, was more enthusiastic than Clement VII. His preparations for war dated back to February 1526 when he had arranged for the refortification of the twin papal towns of Parma and Piacenza. In May, even before the ratification of the agreements with France, Clement had appointed Francesco Guicciardini, the famous Florentine writer, political thinker, historian and administrator, as lieutenant-general of his army, although Guicciardini lacked military experience. The pope had taken into his pay the great mercenary leaders, his kinsman, Giovanni de' Medici of the Black Bands, and Vitello Vitelli, and had ordered Guido Rangoni to raise 6000 soldiers for the garrison at Piacenza. Clement planned to bring down 5000 Swiss infantry to relieve the beleaguered duke of Milan; had announced that he was prepared to suspend operations against Ferrara for ten months; and had arranged for the Orsini to raise troops as a defence against any possible attack on Rome by the Colonna. In theory, therefore, the pope had arranged a satisfactory defence of his own territories and was poised for an attack on the emperor's forces in Milan.KeywordsBlack BandGeneral CouncilMilitary ExperienceItalian PowerPolitical ThinkerThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.

Peptidoglycan of Free-Living Anaerobic Spirochetes

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

Electron microscope examination of negatively stained or thin-sectioned cells of Spirochaeta stenostrepta treated with penicillin or lysozyme showed that the peptidoglycan was present as a thin, electron-dense layer adjacent and external to the cytoplasmic membrane. The peptidoglycan was isolated from cells of S. stenostrepta and Spirochaeta litoralis by a procedure including treatments with sodium lauryl sulfate and Pronase. Hydrolysates of the isolated S. stenostrepta and S. litoralis peptidoglycans contained glucosamine, muramic acid, glutamic acid, l -ornithine, and alanine in molar ratios of 0.90:0.85:1.00:1.00:1.40 and of 0.63:0.63:0.99:1.00:1.41, respectively. Determination of N-terminal residues suggested that nearly 50% of the ornithine in S. stenostrepta and S. litoralis peptidoglycans was involved in peptide cross-linkage. The peptidoglycan layer of S. stenostrepta was sensitive to lysozyme and myxobacter AL-1 protease.
Neoliberalism and neoliberals: What are we talking about?

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract The terms neoliberalism and neoliberal play a variety of roles ranging from major to trivial in the papers they appear in. Both phrases carry pejorative connotations in nurse writing. Yet irrespective of the role assumed in argument, readers are rarely provided with enough information to determine what the descriptors mean in a substantive or concrete sense. It is proposed that scholars who use these terms in their work should consider expressing themselves more carefully than often occurs at present. Virtue signalling in academic writing should, absent critical argument, be discouraged.
VLSI designs for high-speed Huffman decoder

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Many video compression systems require a high-speed implementation of the huffman decoder. The recursive iteration of the decoding process limits the achievable decoding throughput with a given IC technology. Two classes of VLSI architectures for high speed implementation are designed: the tree-based architectures and the programmable logic array (PLA)-based architectures. A variable-length-code based on a popular video compression system is constructed and the pros and cons of each architecture are compared. The major parts of a pipelined constant-input-rate PLA-based architecture using a high-level synthesis approach are simulated. It is claimed that the decoding throughput of 200 Mb/s is achievable with CMOS 2.0 mu m technology.< >
Barriers to investment in ICT

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

This paper studies the complementarity between investment in information and communication technologies (ICT) and the related investment in human and organizational capital. Using firm-level data taken from a large sample of Italian manufacturing firms, an ICT marginal product much higher than its user cost is estimated. It is then argued that missing complementary investments may have acted as barriers to investment in ICT. Results support the conjecture that the marginal product excess over the user cost is due to those firms that did not complement their ICT investment with an increase in the human capital of their labour force and with a reorganization of the workplace.
Study on Test about the Impermeability of Magnetic Water Concrete

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The compactness and water impermeability of the concrete mixed with magnetized water in different degrees are studied in the thesis. According to the principle of cross-test, 21 samples with the intensity levels C20, C25 and C30 are chosen in the impermeability test. The test indicates the difference of impermeability between magnetized water concrete and ordinary water concrete at the condition of same strength to study the special law influenced by the flow speed of water and the magnetic field strength. The best magnetic field strength and the best water flow speed have been obtained among the range of test parameters.
Strategic Inertia vs. Strategic Change

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Increasingly dynamic, complex and unpredictable economic circumstances require continuous and systematic re-evaluations of business strategies and plans and coherent and effective strategy implementation. Adopting the Resource Based View theoretical framework this chapter is aimed at shedding light on the role of human capital in the strategic change process. Specifically, by adopting the case study methodology the chapter points out the relevance and critical nature of human capital in the complex process that has driven Fiat's competitive and financial turnaround since 2008. Through the lens of Fiat's case, the article contributes both from an academic and a practitioner point of view, to shed light on the relevance of human capital in organizational attitude change, strategy formulation, choices implementation, and more in general, in Fiat's business model re-definition. The chapter ends with case questions.
Design And Synthesis Of A 3,5-Diamino-1,2,4-Triazole As A Lysine Specific Demethylase-1 Inhibitor For Therapeutic Use In Cancer

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Pancreatic Cancer is one of the most lethal of all cancers and new therapeutic treatments are needed. Pancreatic cancer is one of the many cancers in which a chromatin remodeling amine oxidase enzyme, lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is over expressed. LSD1 is an enzyme that causes the change in histone density in order to control gene suppression. When bonded with a corepressor protein (CoREST) to form the protein complex, LSD1 demethylates the epigenetic markers on histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4) and silences tumor suppressor genes. These epigenetic modifications allow H3K4 to be a common site for tumor growth in cancerous cells. The epigenetic markers on a histone determine the density of the chromatin complex and whether or not a gene will be read and sequenced. Epigenetic drug discovery is important to the advancement of cancer research because abnormal gene modification can be lethal. Discovered previously by virtual screening, 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole was found to be a very effective LSD1 inhibitor. It is hypothesized that synthetic analogs of 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole as lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) inhibitors will decrease demethylation of histone lysine residues and increase tumor suppressor gene expression in cancer cells, thereby having a therapeutic use in cancer treatments. To test this hypothesis, synthetic analog N5-(2-(2-(benzyloxy)phenoxy)-6-chlorobenzyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-diamine was successfully synthesized. Future directions for this project are to test this compound against PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells for LSD1 activity and compare the results to other analogs of 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole for their LSD1 inhibition.
Molecular epidemiology of schistosomiasis in Central River Region of The Gambia

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Schistosomiasis is the second most prevalent tropical parasitic disease after malaria, and one of the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries especially in Africa. This study was carried out among students, farmers and fishermen/women from four villages in the Central River Region of The Gambia. The aim of this study was to show the prevalence value of schistosomiasis in Central River Region of The Gambia. Questionnaires were administered to acquire data such as age, gender, prior schistosomiasis infection and treatment. One hundred and ninety-five blood and 192 urine samples collected from 117 females and 78 males were examined. Microscopy, ELISA and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) techniques were used to detect and characterize schistosome isolates from the biological samples. Prevalence of Schistosoma haematobium was 28.7 with 41.0% in males and 23.9% in females. The highest prevalence value among the villages was in Brikama Ba with 53.1% while the age group 6-15 years had the highest prevalence of 50.0%. Schistosoma mansoni was only detected in Jahally village (1.5%). Schistosomiasis detection was highest using ELISA (40%) and lowest using microscopy (24.5%). PCR gave a 28.7% prevalence value. Key words: Prevalence, Schistosoma, diagnostic techniques, Central River Region.
Recording Characteristics in Magnetography by Optical Writing

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Optical writing for magnetography is carried out by projecting the images composed of dots or lines in a reverse magnetic field on the erased or unidirectionally premagnetized sample. The written image is developed by the attraction of magnetic toners. Effects of writing temperature, bias magnetic field and initial premagnetization upon developing characteristics such as mass of attracted toners, line width and resolution are described. The samples used are Cr02 as these are considered the most suitable for thermomagnetography and Co-doped y-Fe203 to bear comparison with it.
Eco‐Friendly Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles and Its Larvicidal Property Against Malaria, Filariasis, and Dengue Vectors

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT The increasing resistance of mosquitoes to synthetic pesticides necessitates eco‐friendly alternatives for vector control. This study presents the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag‐NPs) using Aerva lanata flower extract and evaluates their larvicidal efficacy against Cx. quinquefasciatus , An. stephensi , and Ae. aegypti . The biosynthesized Ag‐NPs, characterized by UV–Vis, FT‐IR, XRD, SEM–EDX, TEM, Zeta potential, and DLS analyses, exhibited potent larvicidal and pupicidal activities, with LC 50 values of 6.501, 20.875, and 22.649 ppm, respectively. The morphological and histopathological alterations in treated larvae, alongside significant modulation of antioxidant (SOD, GPx) and detoxification (GST, AChE) enzymes, indicate oxidative stress as a key mode of action. Importantly, biosafety tests revealed minimal toxicity to Artemia salina , highlighting the eco‐compatibility of these Ag‐NPs. This study demonstrates an innovative, plant‐based nanobiopesticide with strong potential for sustainable mosquito control, addressing the challenges of insecticide resistance and environmental toxicity.
