Navigation Solution to Maneuver Spacecraft Relative to Spheres Centered on Cooperative Satellites

A differential correction algorithm is presented to deliver an impulsive maneuver to a satellite to place it within the overlapping spheres, with user-defined radii, centered around multiple cooperative satellites within a constrained time. The differential correction algorithm develops and utilizes the state transition matrix along with the equations of motion and multiple satellites’ state information to determine the optimum trajectory to achieve the desired results. The results from the algorithm are presented for prograde orbits. The results are presented in order to allow for mission design trade-offs, including satellite separation distance and required based on the satellites’ initial inclinations. The results also provide empirical methods to determine the miss distance and optimum solutions for the provided problem. This work ultimately provides the framework for applying the algorithm to a unique user defined responsive space scenario.

Generalized Quantification of Risk Associated with Extreme Events<sup>1</sup>

In the partitioned multiobjective risk method (PMRM) the probability axis is typically partitioned into three regimes: high‐exceedance low‐consequence, intermediate‐exceedance intermediate‐consequence, and low‐exceedance high‐consequence (LE/HC). For each regime, the PMRM generates a conditional expected risk‐function given that the damage lies within the regime. The theme of this paper is the conditional expected‐risk function for the LE/HC regime. This function, denoted by f 4 (.), captures the behavior of the “extreme events” of an underlying decision‐making problem. The PMRM offers two advantages: (a) it isolates LE/HC events, allowing the decision‐maker(s) to focus on the impacts of catastrophies; and (b) it generates more valuable information than that obtained from the common unconditional expected‐risk function. Theoretical problems may arise from uncertainty about the behavior of the tail of the risk curve describing the underlying frequency of damages. When the number of physical observations in small (e.g., in flood frequency analysis), the analyst is forced to make assumptions about the density of damages. Each succeeding distributional assumption will generate a different value of f 4 (.). An added dimension of difficulty is also created by the sensitivity of f 4 (.) to the choice of the boundary of the LE/HC regime. This paper has two overall objectives: (a) to present distribution‐free results concerning the magnitude of f 4 (.); and (b) to use those results to obtain a distribution‐free estimate of the sensitivity of f 4 (.) to the choice of the boundary of the LE/HC regime. The above objectives are realized by extending, and further developing, existing inequalities for continuously distributed random variables.

An ambient agent model for analyzing managers’ performance during stress

Stress at work have been reported everywhere.Work related performance during stress is a pattern of reactions that occurs when managers are presented with work demands that are not matched with their knowledge, skills, or abilities, and which challenge their ability to cope.Although there are many prior findings pertaining to explain the development of manager performance during stress, less attention has been given to explain the same concept through computational models.In such, a descriptive nature in psychological theories about managers’ performance during stress can be transformed into a causal-mechanistic stage that explains the relationship between a series of observed phenomena.This paper proposed an ambient agent model for analyzing managers’ performance during stress.Set of properties and variables are identified through past literature s to construct the model.Differential equations have been used in formalizing the model.Set of equations reflecting relations involved in the proposed model are presented. The proposed model is essential and can be encapsulated within an intelligent agent or robots that can be used to support managers during stress.

Screening of Indigenous Yeast From Different Ecological Region of Kathmandu Valley and Its Application in Wine Production

Objectives: The aim of the study was to isolate and screen the potent yeast from the air for implementing new yeast in wine fermentation.&#x0D; Methods: In this study, 35 air samples collected in sterile grape juice in glass jar and left over for four days exposure for the growth of yeast from different locations around the Kathmandu Valley. Yeasts were screened by culturing on selective Ethanol Sulfite Agar (ESA) media at 30°C for 2-3 days in Microbiology Lab of Pinnacle College. Yeast isolates were characterized based on colony morphology, microscopic characteristics, Fermentative capacity, Hydrogen sulfide production. Selected yeast isolates were subjected to ethanol fermentation and tested for alcohol tolerance capacity. Wine quality was assessed by sensory evaluation.&#x0D; Results: Of 35 samples, only 20 yeast isolates were isolated. Among these isolates, the variation in colony characteristics along with oval and ellipsoidal microscopic appearance was observed. All the isolates were able to ferment major sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, but few could not ferment galactose and maltose, while none-fermented lactose and xylose. Here, isolates showing no H2S (L29, L34) and mild H2S producer (isolate L31) were subjected to ethanol fermentation. Also, Comparative analysis was made by using commercial standard wine yeast (STAN). Rapid fermentation of grape juice with initial 21 0Brix was observed in L31 isolate, which produced 12.99% v/v alcohol with titratable acidity (TA) 5.25 g/L, followed by L29 strain with 11.99%v/v alcohol and 4.5 g/L TA which were higher than STAN (10.99% alcohol). These isolates specified as Ethanol tolerance up to 13%v/v, while none of them were able to grow at 15% v/v ethanol concentration and 45°C temperature. However, significant growth was observed at pH 3 along with sugar tolerance capacity at 30 0Brix. The wine produced by these isolates was found to be remarkably different among each other. While the sensory analysis of wine led to isolate L31 being congenial to tasters.&#x0D; Conclusion: L31 isolate was found to be efficient and advantageous for wine production indicating its industrial application.

Patellar Tendon Quality and Knee Symptoms in Male Athletes Before the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Abstract Background: It is unknown if the quality of the patellar tendon is affected by an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. ACL deficient patients (ACL-D) have shown to have knee pain, quadriceps weakness and reduced knee function. Ultrasound tissue characterization (UTC) has been used to assess the quality of tendons by quantifying the proportion of echo-types using a numerical grading system from best to worst (I-IV). The primary aims of this cross-sectional study were to investigate the patellar tendon quality in athletes with unilateral ACL injuries, and to compare them to asymptomatic control tendons. The secondary aims were to assess the impact of anterior knee pain (AKP) in the patellar tendons of ACL-D, and to explore possible correlations between tendon quality and knee pain, knee extensor strength and time from ACL injury. Methods: UTC was used to scan both patellar tendons of 81 ACL-D athletes and 20 control tendons. Echo-types distribution was calculated to compare the quality between limbs of ACL-D and control tendons; and to compare ACL-D with AKP, other knee pain, and without pain. Associations between the variables of tendon quality and knee symptoms were explored. Results: No difference in tendon quality was found between limbs of ACL-D. Both tendons of ACL-D displayed more echo-type II at the patellar apex, and same or less echo-types III and IV than controls. The proximal half of the control tendons displayed better quality than the distal half. ACL-D knees with pain displayed less extensor strength, however, in addition to the lack of difference in tendon quality regardless of the presence and location of pain, there was no meaningful association between pain, extensor strength and tendon quality. Nevertheless, there were weak to moderate associations between tendon quality and time from ACL injury. Conclusion: Despite the ACL injury, there is no difference in tendon quality between ACL-D limbs, or when subgrouping ACL-D tendons by presence and location of knee pain. Different areas of the patellar tendon may present different characteristics that might be related to training. Tendon quality is better if a person has longer time from injury.

Association of Sjögren's Syndrome With Reduced Lifetime Sex Hormone Exposure: A Case–Control Study

Objective To test whether cumulative estrogen exposure, as determined by age at menarche, age at menopause, female hormone use, hysterectomy, and parity, have an effect on the development of primary Sjögren's syndrome ( SS ). Methods We performed a case – control study of 2,680 women from the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance registry, including 1,320 registrants with primary SS and 1,360 with sicca symptoms but no key features of primary SS (sicca controls). The composite estrogen score ( CES ) was calculated by point assignment for early menarche (age ≤10 years), high parity (&gt;3 pregnancies), hysterectomy, female hormone use, and late menopause (age ≥53 years). Cumulative menstrual cycling ( CMC ) was calculated as years menstruating minus time pregnant. Results Using a regression model that adjusted for age, recruitment site, ethnicity, education, employment status, and smoking, we observed a progressive inverse trend between primary SS and CES . The odds ratio ( OR ) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI ) were as follows for the sicca control group: CES 1, OR 0.81 (95% CI 0.67–0.99); CES 2, OR 0.74 (95% CI 0.57–0.97); CES 3, OR 0.50 (95% CI 0.30–0.86). This trend was corroborated by analysis of CMC . At the highest level of CMC within the postmenopausal group there was a 24% reduction in cumulative sex hormone exposure among primary SS participants relative to controls. Conclusion Women with primary SS have lower estrogen exposure and CMC compared to sicca controls. Increasing estrogen exposure was negatively associated with development of primary SS . Further longitudinal studies of sex hormone exposure in primary SS are needed to confirm these findings.

Reproductive factors are associated with oesophageal cancer risk: results from a meta-analysis of observational studies

To further evaluate the association between reproductive events and the development of oesophageal cancer, we searched relevant studies using electronic databases (PubMed, ISI Web of Science). Study-specific relative risks with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) in all analyses were used and multiple summary relative risk (SRR) estimates were calculated. We carried out subgroup analyses and used meta-regression techniques to explore potential sources of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was carried out to identify whether pooled results were influenced by individual studies and publication bias was assessed by Begg’s funnel plots and the Egger regression asymmetry test. Fourteen studies were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis, summarizing a total of 3816 oesophageal cancer cases. We found that age at menopause (SRR=0.70; 95% CI: 0.51–0.95) and hormone replacement therapy (SRR=0.67; 95% CI: 0.56–0.81) had an association with a decreased risk of oesophageal cancer. A similar result was obtained for parity (SRR=0.79; 95% CI: 0.71–0.89) and ever breastfeeding (SRR=0.65; 95% CI: 0.43–0.97). In contrast, postmenopausal status was associated with increased risk (SRR=1.65; 95% CI: 1.28–2.14). No statistically significant link was found with other exposures. Our meta-analysis supports the substantial influence of reproductive factors, which could be causally linked to oesophageal cancer.

Skin-lightening practices in India

Skin lightening involves various practices to bleach the skin or to reduce the normal skin tone. The practice of skin-lightening spans several continents throughout the centuries and cultures primarily aimed at improving the quality of life. The main aim of skin lightening in medieval times was to increase the sign of femininity and thereby its benefits. In India, skin lightening is preferred as a mark of class, caste, and richness. Dermatologists are faced with many problems dealing with requests to make skin fairer, while in the west, there is a problem dealing with skin conditions in skin of color. Many skin-lightening agents are sold as over-the-counter products and are popularized or advertised through magazines, social media, and celebrity influences. These products are self-prescribed and used rampantly despite the side effects. There is a strong equation between caste, social class, marital prospects, and occupational status based on skin color. Multinational skin-lightening cosmetic brands have a lucrative market. The most widely used topical agent in skin lightening is hydroquinone, while other non-hydroquinone agents are also frequently used. In general, combining skin-lightening agents have increased efficacy. Systemic agents such as glutathione, tranexamic acid, Vitamin C, and other miscellaneous agents are also popular. Several procedures ranging from chemical peels to lights and lasers are increasingly practiced for more effective skin lightening. In India, all skin-whitening creams can be bought without a prescription as OTC products. These products are not considered pharmaceutical products and are not subject to testing and regulations. In addition, the injudicious use of intravenous glutathione by unqualified personnel poses a threat to the lay public. In our role as dermatologists, we should develop a holistic approach in counseling and treating those patients on a quest for skin lightening.

The Relationship Among Demographics and Risk Attitude in Predicting Health Plan Enrollment

Age, salary, family status, and health status are reported to be linked to high deductible health plan (HDHP) enrollment for pre-Affordable Care Act (ACA) health plans. There has been little research on HDHP enrollment post-ACA. This study quantitatively examined the demographic variables and attitude toward risk that contribute to enrollment in a HDHP that conforms to the ACA minimum essential coverage standards. Risk taking was measured by the Domain Specific Risk Taking Scale. Other independent variables were participant age, annual salary, employee status, enrollment tier, and gender. There were 144 participants recruited from the Amazon Mechanical Turk platform who participated in the research survey. The results of binary logistic regression analysis indicated that age and the presence of children on coverage predict HDHP enrollment. Older employees and employees with at least 1 child on coverage are less likely to enroll in a HDHP. As almost 40% of adults in the United States are covered under a HDHP and this number is expected to increase, it is important to determine the factors related to HDHP enrollment. By identifying the factors related to HDHP enrollment, better educational materials may be developed for employees related to the complex and often confusing insurance decision-making process thus supporting positive social change in the health insurance industry.

The role of indirect connections in gene networks in predicting function

Abstract Motivation: Gene networks have been used widely in gene function prediction algorithms, many based on complex extensions of the ‘guilt by association’ principle. We sought to provide a unified explanation for the performance of gene function prediction algorithms in exploiting network structure and thereby simplify future analysis. Results: We use co-expression networks to show that most exploited network structure simply reconstructs the original correlation matrices from which the co-expression network was obtained. We show the same principle works in predicting gene function in protein interaction networks and that these methods perform comparably to much more sophisticated gene function prediction algorithms. Availability and implementation: Data and algorithm implementation are fully described and available at http://www.chibi.ubc.ca/extended. Programs are provided in Matlab m-code.
