Both landfill leachate and sewage sludge are complex mixtures of many potentially toxic substances in unknown and unpredictable amounts and concentrations. Both types of matrices can pose a risk to human health and the functioning of ecosystems if released into the environment. Therefore, constant monitoring of the toxicity of these mixtures is necessary. However, traditional methods of analysis of sewage sludge/landfill leachate are mainly based on physicochemical studies that do not fully refl


Abstract Background Since October 2014, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has penalized 25% of U.S. hospitals with the highest rates of hospital-acquired conditions under the Hospital Acquired Conditions Reduction Program (HACRP). While early evaluations of the HACRP program reported cumulative reductions in hospital-acquired conditions, more recent studies have not found a clear association between receipt of the HACRP penalty and hospital quality of care. We posit that some of thi

We examine the adiabatic preparation of spatially-ordered Rydberg excitations of atoms in finite one-dimensional lattices by frequency-chirped laser pulses, as realized in a number of recent experiments simulating quantum Ising model. Our aims are to unravel the microscopic mechanism of the phase transition from the unexcited state of atoms to the antiferromagnetic-like state of Rydberg excitations by traversing an extended gapless phase, and to estimate the preparation fidelity of the target st


To overcome the frequently debated crisis of confidence, replicating studies is becoming increasingly more common. Multiple frequentist and Bayesian measures have been proposed to evaluate whether a replication is successful, but little is known about which method best captures replication success. This study is one of the first attempts to compare a number of quantitative measures of replication success with respect to their ability to draw the correct inference when the underlying truth is kno


The purpose of this paper is to present correlation coefficients for a variety of rock types that can be used in a suitable petroelastic model (PEM).

Purpose: We identify and distinguish different practices of how organizations relate to “inherited” past. Inherited pasts can be actively related to, avoided or rewritten, or can be entirely constructed. In order to understand value creation, stakeholder integration and sense-making, on the one hand, and to expose window-dressing and historical cherry picking, on the other, we ask what heritage communication practices corporations engage in and why they do so.

Theory: We depart from st

Stability is among the most important concepts in dynamical systems. Local stability is well-studied, whereas determining how "globally stable" a nonlinear system is very challenging. Over the last few decades, many different ideas have been developed to address this issue, primarily driven by concrete applications. In particular, several disciplines suggested a web of concepts under the headline "resilience". Unfortunately, there are many different variants and explanations of resilience, and o


Vision gives people a strong recognition ability, and people can easily see various objects.

They are created so fast that no one can search them all, but the wealth of information they contain is very important to people. Therefore, this article is based on the convolutional neural network to study the object interactio


This chapter discusses how translation and adaptation are key factors in the 'thick' cultural processes that reconnect past and present. Starting from the premise that translations are works in their own right, the argument shows how translation and adaptation of works from other times, places, and languages are themselves forms of reception and of cultural commentary. Special attention is given to situating mediations, displacements, and moments of heightened receptivity in language, performanc

We analyze Andreev bound states (ABSs) that form in normal sections of a Rashba nanowire that is only partially covered by a superconducting layer. These ABSs are localized close to the ends of the superconducting section and can be pinned to zero energy over a wide range of magnetic field strengths even if the nanowire is in the non-topological regime. For finite-size nanowires (typically $\lesssim 1$ $μ$m in current experiments), the ABS localization length is comparable to the length of the n


Seven years ago, Wegenast and Basedau (2014) refurbished the greed and grievance theory made famous by Collier and Hoeffler, and championed an argument that ethnic fractionalization combined with an abundance of natural resources could especially spur internal conflict in a society. Their theory is the inspiration for this thesis which theorizes that climate change-induced decrease of, and subsequent competition for, natural resources and arable land will risk escalating to communal conflict, wh


Abstract An intelligent traffic system, which can flexibly allocate traffic resources, serves as a good assistant to help us improve traffic safety and efficiency of controlling traffic volume, providing instant traffic information and giving priority to ambulances.

Read paper: https://www.aclanthology.org/2021.findings-acl.15 Abstract: Topic models are effective in capturing the latent semantics of large-scale textual data while existing methods are normally designed and evaluated on balanced corpora. However, it contradicts the fact that general corpora in our world are naturally long-tailed, and the long-tailed bias can highly impair the topic modeling performance. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a causal inference framework to explain and overcome

We observe that a recent result by Gardiner and Sjödin, solving a problem of Král on subharmonic functions, can be easily generalized to yield a somewhat stronger result. This can be combined with a viscosity technique of ours, which we slightly improve, to obtain Radó- type theorems for plurisubharmonic functions. Finally, we study the Borel complexity of the critical set and the set where the gradient does not exist finitely of subharmonic functions and general real valued functions.

In geophysical exploration, inversion is carried out on the observed data to generate a geophysical model, approximating the subsurface geological structure. In the interpretation of magnetic data, the subsurface model parameters are found by a proper inversion scheme. Hence, it will be possible to obtain the entire parameters of any features (e.g. Dike) including depth, width, and location. In this paper, theoretical and field studies were carried out to interpret the total components of magne


This chapter examines the initial approach to PTSD symptoms using TFPP. Symptoms serve as a lens through which to explore and address contributory emotions, conflicts, and defenses. Symptoms may express or function to ward off intolerably painful emotions generated by the trauma. The therapist works to link the symptoms to relevant traumatic events, which patients have often avoided via dissociation or other defenses. The therapist is empathic with patients’ distress in describing trauma and als


Abstract Fiber metal laminates (FML) are promising material candidates in several applications such as aerospace, marine, and construction industries due to their high strength, impact resistance, corrosion resistance, and fatigue properties. However, these materials have a negative impact on the environment due to their higher carbon footprint. This problem could be overcome by hybridizing carbon material with natural biodegradable materials. It is assumed that the higher moisture absorption an

It is generally accepted that empathy should be the basis of patient care. However, this ideal may be unrealistic if healthcare professionals suffer adverse effects when engaging in empathy. The aim of this study is to explore the effect of inferring mental states and different components of empathy (perspective-taking; empathic concern; personal distress) in burnout dimensions (emotional ex-haustion; depersonalization; personal accomplishment). A total of 184 healthcare professionals participat


The use of renewable and natural materials characterized by the low environmental impact is nowadays a key issue for the sustainable development of the construction industry. For this reason, the interest for natural fibers, to be used as reinforcement in composites as an alternative to other fibers, is continuously growing.

Abstract In this study, waste shells of African giant snail (Achatina achatina L.) were explored as candidates for asbestos-free non-carcinogenic brakepads. The results obtained showed that the density, brinell hardness and compressive strength of the snail shell (SS) brake pads were superior to the commercial sample used for comparison. These properties were found to decrease with increase in particle size, following a negative index power law model after the order of the Hall-Petch equation. H

In this study, we examine how lexical predictability may differ between speech to native and non-native listeners. Some previous studies have suggested that speech to non-native listeners may share some properties with infant-directed speech, including slower speaking rates, higher intensity and greater fundamental frequency range. However, it is unclear whether other factors, such as lexical predictability are modulated in speech to non-native listeners. In this study, we specifically ask wheth


Abstract Monofluorinated alkyl compounds are of great importance in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials. Herein, we describe a direct nickel‐catalyzed monofluoromethylation of unactivated alkyl halides using a low‐cost industrial raw material, bromofluoromethane, by demonstrating a general and efficient reductive cross‐coupling of two alkyl halides. Results with 1‐bromo‐1‐fluoroalkane also demonstrate the viability of monofluoroalkylation, which further established the first example of

<p>Previous studies have evaluated the roles of T and B cells in the pathogenesis of Sjögren’s syndrome (SS); however, their relationships with age-dependent and metabolic abnormalities remain unclear. We examined the impacts of changes associated with aging or metabolic abnormalities on populations of T and B cells and SS disease severity. We detected increased populations of IL-17-producing T and B cells, which regulate inflammation, in the salivary glands of NOD/ShiLtJ mice. Inflammatio

There has been concern within the artificial intelligence (AI) community and the broader society regarding the potential lack of fairness of AI-based decision-making systems. Surprisingly, there is little work quantifying and guaranteeing fairness in the presence of uncertainty which is prevalent in many socially sensitive applications, ranging from marketing analytics to actuarial analysis and recidivism prediction instruments. To this end, we study a longitudinal censored learning problem subj


The objective of the current study is to compare the perceptions of two important segments i.e. Islamic bankers and Islamic scholars concerning the financing products provided by Islamic banks, to assess their basis whether financing products are trade-based or interest-based. It examines difference in general perception, generic underlying mechanism of offered products, and suggestive measures regarding Islamic banking products. Data was collected from Islamic bankers and Islamic scholars using

Our group recently published direct observation of membrane charging in FluoVolt labeled CHO-K1 cells by nanosecond electrical pulses using a streak camera. Using this technique, called Streak Camera Microscopy (SCM), we imaged the membrane charging dynamics in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) during AC exposures up to 6 MHz and compared these results to existing capacitive circuit models of membranes. This work shows further application of Streak Camera Microscopy for evaluation of high speed


In the last decade, visible‐light photoredox catalysis has evolved into a versatile tool in organic synthesis. However, most reports have used homemade photoreactors in their design and optimisation of new methods, complicating the reproducibility of some transformations. To improve reproducibility and efficiency, laboratory photoreactors have been developed and commercialized. Herein we report a comparison of four commercially available photoreactors in six mechanistically distinct photoredox r

Nanoparticle-based pesticide delivery systems have emerged to decrease the environmental and health impact of pesticides while increasing their efficacy. A majority of nanopesticides in the development pipeline are synthetic materials, some of which present their own environmental risks. We propose the development of naturally occurring nanomaterials, namely plant viruses such as tobacco mild green mosaic virus (TMGMV), for the delivery of pesticides. We and others have previously shown that pla

Given a directed acyclic graph G=(V,A) and two vertices u,v∈V, the reachability problem is to answer if there is a path from u to v in the graph. In the context of very large graphs, with millions of vertices and a series of queries to be answered, it is not practical to search the graph for each query. On the other hand, the storage of the full transitive closure of the graph is also impractical due to its O(|V|2) size. Scalable approaches aim to create indices used to prune the search during i


The urgency of the problem lies in the large proportion of premature babies in the structure of perinatal morbidity and mortality. According to the WHO, the frequency of premature birth in the world varies widely - from 4.5% to 16% [1, 2, 5]. It is known that for premature infants, children with congenital malformations in the presence of obstetric indications is more careful surgical delivery [4, 5].Therefore, the improvement of the technique of abdominal delivery in premature birth and congeni

Two major themes emerged from a qualitative case study on the 2017 hurricane season in Puerto Rico and its impact on people with visual impairments. The first theme was independence as it related to personal autonomy. The second theme was abandonment as expressed by people with visual impairments from informal social systems and formal institutions. Interviews were utilized in Puerto Rico of people with visual impairments, representatives of organizations serving people with visual impairments,


How often is a quintic polynomial solvable by radicals? We establish that the number of such polynomials, monic and irreducible with integer coefficients in $[-H,H]$, is $O(H^{3.91})$. More generally, we show that if $n \ge 3$ and $n \notin \{ 7, 8, 10 \}$ then there are $O(H^{n-1.017})$ monic, irreducible polynomials of degree $n$ with integer coefficients in $[-H,H]$ and Galois group not containing $A_n$. Save for the alternating group and degrees $7,8,10$, this establishes a 1936 conjecture o

Abstract To study ultrasound’s attenuation law propagating in shale, we first tested the attenuation rate of ultrasound in air and shale by assembling an experimental device by ourselves. The experimentally measured ultrasonic attenuation coefficient in the air is close to the value obtained from most kinds of literature, so our self-assembled practical device is very reliable. By fitting the experimental data, we found that the average attenuation coefficient of ultrasound in the air is 0.0258

ABSTRACT A biloma is a collection of bile located outside the bile duct which occurs as a result of iatrogenic and traumatic injuries. Spontaneous biloma is rare and is associated with choledocholithiasis. Diagnosis is performed using an ultrasound, a computed tomography scan, and a nuclear magnetic resonance scan, and is confirmed by drainage and subsequent biochemical analysis of the fluid sample. The first treatment option is percutaneous drainage, and if not successful, endoscopic biliary dr


The transportation electrification brings several challenges in transport as well as electrical sectors. The global fulfillment of plug-in electric vehicle (PEVs) demand is a big challenge for giant car manufacturers. Consequently, the sharp rise in PEVs popularity forces the electrical sector to handle the high electrical load during grid-to-vehicle (G2V) mode. The congestion level achieves as soon as electrical load increases due to the PEV charging in G2V mode in uncoordinated way. This paper

In the present study, we sequenced and assembled the complete chloroplast genome of Fagopyrum leptopodum (Diels) Hedberg. The chloroplast genome of F. leptopodum was composed of 85 protein-coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes, and 37 transfer RNA genes. The F. leptopodum chloroplast genome is 159,375 bp in length, with a GC content of 37.81%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the combined chloroplast gene dataset indicated that the F. leptopodum exhibited a close relation


Exceptionally long-lived species, including many bats, rarely show overt signs of aging, making it difficult to determine why species differ in lifespan. Here, we use DNA methylation (DNAm) profiles from 712 known-age bats, representing 26 species, to identify epigenetic changes associated with age and longevity. We demonstrate that DNAm accurately predicts chronological ages. Across species, longevity is negatively associated with the rate of DNAm change at age-associated sites. Furthermore, an

Plutonium oxide powders from various production lines at Los Alamos National Laboratory are stored and transported in specially designed “SAVY-4000”, “Hagan”, or other containment systems. Cerium oxide powder has been used as a less-hazardous simulant powder for testing accidental release from these containers under various operational scenarios. This work investigates the development and use of fluorescent cerium oxide powders as a more easily detectable, and potentially quantifiable, simulant


In this paper, we propose the implementation of a safety device that generates an alarm sound or braking operation to reduce the risk of accidents. It reduces the exposure of risks due to non-wearing by supplementing the function of the helmet for safety. For machine learning, the safety state is learned by using two types of sensing data, and when an abnormal helmet use or speed or drinking driving is detected, an alarm sound is generated and motion is broken to maintain the safe state. By meas

In this paper, the characteristics of hydrogen-propane-butane-air lean premixed flames on a flat flame burner were experimentally studied. To elucidate the shape and fluctuation of premixed flames, the cell width, RMS of fluctuation, peak frequency and reconstructed attractor were obtained from the direct photographic images and time series of light emission intensity. The cellular flames were observed at sufficiently low equivalence ratios; the flat flames were found under the other conditions.
