Results of experimental studies on suppressing the growth of micromycetes (fam. Saprolegniaceae) on egg membranes of embryos of russian sturgeon and beluga in the incubation period

For successful development of aquaculture, fish farms have to be provided by effective means and methods to prevent and treat diseases of fish. Many drugs are limited for using in aquaculture, so the influence of each particular drug or chemical substance on the fish development should be investigated carefully. Effectiveness of chemical solutions for suppressing the growth of saprolegnium micromycetes on egg membranes and other tissues of sturgeon embryos during their incubation is evaluated. The experiment was conducted at the research and experimental base BIOS belonged to the Russian Res. Inst. of Fisheries and Oceanography, Volga-Caspian branch (CaspNIRKh) located in Astrakhan and included a series of observations on incubation of sturgeon eggs processed with solutions of some chemicals (Purple-K, sodium chloride, hydrogen peroxide) or drug (Iodinol). Two sturgeon species (russian sturgeon and beluga) were tested with measuring biological parameters of their embryos, as survival rate, contamination by saprolegnia micromycetes, number of abnormally developing embryos, and number of obtained prelarvae. The processing with 0.05 % solution of hydrogen peroxide (10 min. exposure) and with 0.90 % solution of sodium chloride (3 min. exposure) showed the best results: these solutions made the lowest negative effect on the embryos survival but reduced significantly infection of incubated eggs.

Verhandelte (Un-) Freiheit

The Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation is usually not perceived as a slave-holding state. Still, German envoys, merchants, missionaries, and soldiers brought back trafficked people with them – very often via other European countries and colonies. As in neighboring jurisdictions, the legal status of these trafficked persons in Germany was far from clear. Drawing on diverse court cases, this article shows how slave-holders and the enslaved sought legal arguments for their cause by activating networks and searching for precedents beyond the empire's borders. The German case not only documents the explicit affirmation of the slave status but also reveals its entanglements with serfdom.

Mechanics of stress-laminated timber bridges with butt end joints

A number of variants of single span and three-span stress-laminated timber bridge decks have been studied via finite element simulations and experiments. Glulam beams in the decks were in general shorter than the total length of span which means that there were butt end joints in the decks. The butt end of each beam in a joint was not connected to the other beam which means that each butt end joint reduced the strength and stiffness of the whole of the deck. Results for deflection and stresses were examined for the studied variants in the form of reduction factors for strength and stiffness relative to a deck without butt end joints. Factors are shown in diagrams as function of ratio butt end distance/beam width and also butt end distance/span width. Comparison of achieved results with existing Eurocode rules shows that Eurocode rules are not totally appropriate.

Power Quality Improvement for PMSG Based Isolated Small Hydro System Feeding Three-Phase 4-Wire Unbalanced Nonlinear Loads

In this work, an isolated small hydro system is dealt with feeding a three-phase 4-wire unbalanced nonlinear loads supported by a battery. A moving average filter-enhanced PLL (MAF-EPLL) control strategy is adapted for extracting fundamental component from load currents. The 4-leg VSC connected to point of common coupling (PCC) is used to control voltage, frequency and to improve the power quality of this system during unbalanced nonlinear loading. The neutral current compensation is provided by using a 4-leg voltage source converter (VSC), which also suppresses the effect of unbalance in a 3-phase 4 wire nonlinear consumer load. This control scheme extracts the amplitude of the load current component corresponding to the fundamental frequency to regulate the generator frequency and to determine the phase angle. The capability of this small hydro system using the presented control strategy is demonstrated through prototype developed in the laboratory.

Simulation and visualisation of terrain erosion on GPU

The problem of realistic terrain geometry generation has been present in computer graphics since the very beginning. The most frequent use of realistic terrain can be seen in movies, games and various simulations. In our thesis, we present a procedure for real time generation of realistic terrain, which can only be achieved by parallel computing on the GPU. We start the process by generating a random terrain using fractals, which later serves as a base geometry for erosion simulation. Then we start the real time fluid simulation and observe how hydraulic erosion creates river beds on the terrain. Due to the changes in temperature, thermal erosion causes rocks to crack and therefore to crumble and cause the formation of scree at the bottom of hills and mountains. Finally we propose a model for procedural generation of the roads. First we calculate the most energy-efficient path from point A to point B by choosing the right heuristic function of the A* search algorithm. Then we smooth the resulting path and create the road and verge of arbitrary width. The final result of the thesis is a realistic geometry of the terrain and road that winds over the terrain and avoids natural obstacles.

A scheme to produce high density and high temperature plasma for opacity measurement

The opacity of shock-compressed material is of general scientific interest for astrophysical plasmas and for inertial confinement fusion research. A proposal is suggested to produce high temperature plasma with density around 1 g/cm−3. Two types of opacity target (the sandwich target and the foam enhanced sandwich target) are investigated numerically. The foam enhanced sandwich target has structure of foam–solid-sample-solid-foam. The foam will increase laser absorption efficiency and the ablating pressure. Hydrodynamic simulations confirm that the laser can be fully absorbed by the under-critical-density foam and a faster shock is produced inside the CH layer. High intensity lasers heat opacity target from both sides. The CH layers must be thick enough to keep the laser away from the sample. The laser-driven shocks move inward and collide at the center. Part of their kinetic energy is converted into internal energy and high density and high temperature local thermodynamic equilibrium sample plasma is produced. The plasma produced by laser heating the foam enhanced sandwich target has higher sample temperature than by laser heating the sandwich target. It may be useful for measuring the opacity of shock compressed material in laboratory.

RECOVERY OF CONSCIOUSNESS: OPPORTUNITIES FOR NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT AND REHABILITATION

Relevance. Neuropsychological rehabilitation and assessment are the priority tasks in practice of a clinical psychologist. The modern rehabilitation system can be considered as a partnership between patients, their families and different specialists participating in the rehabilitation process. The existing approaches to neurorehabilitation are aimed at the earliest possible intervention. It`s of particular importance for patients with disorders of consciousness, whose number has been increasing in connection with the development of medicine in recent decades. This leads to the need to develop tools for specialized neuropsychological assessment and methods of neuropsychological rehabilitation of patients in the early stages of recovery of consciousness. Objective. To summarize neuropsychological diagnostic and rehabilitation experience of working with patients with disorders of consciousness after brain lesions. Methods. We analyze practical guidelines, applied research and our own hands-on experience of working with patients with disorders of consciousness after brain lesions. Results. Based on the analysis, the recommended diagnostic tools are formulated that can be used to identify the current level of consciousness and to assess various parameters of psychic activity of patients with disorders of consciousness. In addition, the main directions and neuropsychological methods of rehabilitation work recommended for recovery of consciousness and continuing to be developed now are highlighted. Conclusion. A new diagnostic and rehabilitation material is presented, which is recommended for use in neuropsychological practice by practicing clinical psychologists with patients with disorders of consciousness after brain lesions.

REGIONAL SOCIAL NETWORKS AS CONDUITS FOR KNOWLEDGE SPILLOVERS: EXPLAINING PERFORMANCE OF HIGH‐TECH FIRMS

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to open the ‘black box’ of knowledge spillovers by testing the extent to which social interactions between firms in a region positively contribute to firm performance. Specifically, we examine the Marshall‐Jacobs controversy, a debate over whether these spillovers occur across firms operating in similar or dissimilar fields. Our empirical examination of the debate relies on a dataset that is constructed from three sources: firm‐level data of 1,881 high‐tech firms in all 40 Dutch regions, regional economic data and network data constructed from the membership registrations of all business associations in a sample of 11 regions. The results show that the total amount of regional network activity has no effect on individual firm performance; however, participation in local business networks does support firm employment growth. With regards to the Marshall‐Jacobs controversy, the results show that having local links to other high‐tech firms is conducive to a firm's employment growth, while links to other types of firms provided no such lift.

Seismo-Stratigraphic Data of Wave-Cut Marine Terraces in the Licosa Promontory (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy)

Some seismo-stratigraphic evidence on the occurrence of wave-cut marine terraces in the Licosa promontory (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy) based on Sub-bottom Chirp seismic sections is herein presented. Such evidence is provided by marine terraced surfaces situated at various water depths below sea level and etched into the rocky acoustic basement, which are extensively extending in the seaward extension of the Licosa promontory. It is possible that the isotopic stratigraphy and the terraced marine surfaces are connected, so they can be attributed and dated indirectly. The geologic study of seismic profiles has pointed to the prominence of the acoustic basement, extending to the seabed close to the coast and subsiding seawards under the Quaternary marine succession. Ancient remains of marine terraces, found at a range of water depths between 5 m and 50 m, have documented the major morphological changes of the acoustic basement during the Late Quaternary.

Precise Boring On Unmanned Machining Centre

In developing unmanned machining cells or FMS it is necessary to solve the problem of machining precise holes. Some systems for this purpose have been designed but none proved to be the right solution. An original Boring Bar System has been developed based on the analysis of the known systems: the precise hole is machined in two passes, after the first pass the diameter is measured with a pneumatic measuring unit built into the boring bar, the difference between the expected and measured values of the diameter is taken into account during the cutting edge readjustment before the second pass.

“This Fleshlike Isle”: The Voluptuous Body of the People in Dutch Pamphlets, Novels, and Plays, 1660–1730

It is the year 1680. A Rotterdam bailiff goes on a guided tour of the Amsterdam brothel district. To this end, he has acquired the best guide one could wish for: the devil himself. The devil takes our man from one public stew to another, and they meet the most beautiful and the ugliest whores, with dominant and cunning madams, aggressive pimps, fiddlewielding musicians, and of course the clientele, ranging from the finest gentlemen, via sailors and peasants to the lowest of rakes. In the middle of the night, in a playhouse in an alley, they meet an impressive prostitute. She is dressed "like a servant" and has little locks "curled like those of the Negroes." Moreover, she is so enormously fat that the bailiff cannot imagine her father had any intention of making a girl "when he started laying the foundations for this fleshlike isle." "Her arms and her hands were… so thick and fat that one’s taste had to be perverted to fall in love with them." And yet, immediately, a gentleman, carrying a jug of Rhine wine to get her in the proper mood and win her affection, jumps upon the lady. The bailiff is fascinated. "What charms does this creature possess, I asked my guide, that can infatuate this gentleman with her?" His guide resolutely answers: "In her whole body, as huge and as fat as it is, there is nothing at all that might entice an honest man." Obviously, all men do not share the devil’s opinion, otherwise she would not be in her profession.1

Mental health: current trends in pharmacy and new concepts

The implementation of the National Mental Health Gap Action Program (mhGAP), which aims to broaden the management of patients with mental disorders in primary care, should involve not only primary care physicians but also pharmacists. Pharmacists play a crucial role by providing medications within the expanded Medical Guarantee Program for drug reimbursement in outpatient treatment of mental and behavioral disorders. Additionally, they offer pharmaceutical care for patients dealing with stress disorders and insomnia, adhering to the Good Pharmacy Practice (GPP) standards. The aim of the work is the study of national information, scientific databases, and scientometric databases of Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library in order to identify, generalize, and systematize the source based on providing pharmaceutical care in the field of mental health care of patients and predicting the future vector of research on the specified topic. Materials and methods. General scientific methods such as analysis, synthesis, comparison, and data generalization from domestic information and scientific databases were employed in this study. To search for scientific publications, the VOS viewer visualization program, the PubMed search engine, and the Cochrane Library were used. The keywords “mental health” and “pharmacy” were used for the search within the scientometric databases of Scopus and Web of Science. Results. The analysis of the main strategies for the development of pharmaceutical care for mental health care in pharmaceutical practice was carried out. The most researched clusters of mental health care were singled out. Modern trends in the development of pharmaceutical care for mental health care were summarized. Conclusions. The initiative for enhancing mental health care for the country’s population hinges on the principles of a novel, sustainable, patient-centered pharmacy model. This approach necessitates the realization of an expanded role for pharmacists, aligning with the standards outlined in Good Pharmacy Practice.

Enhancing L2 Reading Comprehension with Hypermedia Texts: Student Perceptions

This study extends current research about L2 hypermedia texts by investigating the combined use of audiovisual features including: (a) Contextualized images, (b) roll-over translations, (c) cultural information, (d) audio explanations and (e) comprehension check exercises. Specifically, student perceptions of hypermedia readings compared to traditional print texts are investigated in this study to address theoretical concerns that the combined use of multiple audiovisual annotations might split learners’ attention from their reading comprehension. Additionally, student perceptions of the usefulness of the annotation features afforded by the hypermedia texts were investigated. Data were collected from 70 French language learners across four intermediate and advanced French courses at a large Midwestern research university. Participants in each course were assigned hypermedia readings, each of which being paired with an analogous traditional print reading of the same genre, with a similar word count and reading difficulty level, followed by a format preference survey. Results from data analysis of the format preference surveys showed statistically significant differences for user preference of the hypermedia texts and a user belief that the hypermedia format facilitated reading comprehension with less effort than print readings. Research findings about the reported usefulness of the annotation features are situated within Mayer’s (2005) cognitive theory of multimedia learning. Directions for future research into the optimal design of hypermedia texts are discussed.

Optimal investment in immobile human capital in an economic and monetary union

We analyse the optimal accumulation of physical and human capital in a small economy in monetary union. We derive the modified golden rule, which states that the optimal rates of investment in physical and human capital depend upon the natural rate of growth and the real interest rate. If they are equal, there exist infinitely many optimal pairs of investment rates. However, if they differ, the golden rule recommends one of two extreme solutions. Optimal investment rates are always linked together by a very simple linear equation (the line H). The economy should always stay on the line H, and move along this line, either up or down, in response to changes in exogenous parameters. These results are illustrated with numerical experiments, based on realistic values of exogenous parameters. Simulations suggest that current levels of investment in human capital in small European countries are way too low.
