Use and control over natural resources was the main agenda behind ecological movements in India. Environmental movements brought environmental sensitivity. Uttarakhand has had been a beautiful state but the region remained isolated and unsung for a longer period of time. However, the local organizations and protests linked the region with the rest of the country. The central motivation of the study is to trace out the tactics adopted when hardly any tech-based communication existed to set Chipko as the mass movement. The study is exploratory in nature and data has been gathered using Schedule which has been analyzed via percent analysis. Results of the study approves that Chipko validated nonviolent resistance and brought out unique strategies to sustain the Chipko as the movement. Chipko was a continuation of the old peasant struggle where the population mainly stressed on the group communication.

AbstractWomen's voices within the Christian and Hindu traditions contain theoretical and practical resources for dealing with issues of ecological concern. Hinduism's teachings about Mother Earth and newly crafted eco-feminist theories in Christianity provide a philosophical context for regarding the earth as sacred. The Chipko movement, organized and implemented by local women, prevented the commercial harvesting of lumber and its consequent habitat destruction in India's Uttaranchal Province. In North America, members of Christian women's religious orders have converted many of their properties to organic gardening and teaching centers, and into wildlife sanctuaries. Both movements are providing models for ecological sustainability.

This research paper explores the beginnings, significant turning points, and effects on policy and public awareness of the historical development of environmental movements in India. In India, environmental movements have arisen in reaction to several issues such as land degradation, climate change, industrial pollution, deforestation, and water scarcity. With protests against exploitative forestry practices and dam construction projects during the colonial era, modern environmental activism emerged. Its roots are in India’s rich cultural past, where reverence for nature has been engrained for millennia. Following independence, attention turned to projects fuelled by development, which created tensions between industry and conservation. Notable campaigns against environmental degradation and displacement include the Chipko Movement in the 1970s, in which peasants embraced trees to stop deforestation, and the Narmada Bachao Andolan in the 1980s, which protested against massive dam projects. To fully appreciate the intricacies, motivations, and consequences of environmental movements in India, it is imperative that we first grasp their historical trajectory. This will help us to better shape sustainable development paths for the twenty-first century.

Women and nature are connected in many different ways: with their biological status, reproductive role, discrimination. That is why ecofeminism stands for one of the main theoretical, philosophical and even practical ways of resolving the environmental problems. The representatives of this thinking find that changing positions and behaviors by leaving the patriarchal approach to everything - to the women and to the nature, can stop the degradation of the environment. Demographic significance of the women?s role, in context of environmental changes, was represented by some feminist movements, as Chipko movement in India, Green Belt movement in Kenya, Love Canal in State of New York, etc. In this paper, the author gives a short overview of connections between women and nature, and proposes some new solutions.

Annotation:
In the intricate landscape of developmental dynamics, understanding growth requires a deep dive into diverse factors, including urban-rural imbalances, dual economies, environmental ramifications, and gender disparities. Historically, colonial policies often favored urban development, exacerbating rural-urban divides, as seen in movements like Brazil's Landless Workers'. Furthermore, the dichotomy in economic structures elevates societal equity challenges, especially between traditional and modern sectors. As exemplified by India's Chipko movement, the environmental aftermath of colonial resource extraction lingers. The gender discourse has matured, with campaigns such as #MeToo spotlighting workplace equity. China, post-1976, epitomizes the potential and pitfalls of swift industrialization, providing invaluable insights for emerging economies. Given these multifaceted considerations, the essence of growth has become a pivotal research topic today. Dissecting the nuances of development encompasses disparities, regional variances, and environmental hurdles, weaving a complex tapestry that underscores the criticality of comprehensive developmental evaluations. As nations evolve, differences intensify, leading to significant socio-environmental challenges. This essay unravels these complexities, merging historical insights with present-day implications and setting the stage for future discourses in development.

Annotation:
This paper covers several key issues relating to women and gender in post-1947 India. A detailed discussion on the construction of ‘women’ by colonial and anticolonial forces prior to Independence helps place the post-Independence period in context. Because the issues are complex and intertwined, it is argued that in the Indian context the definition of conventional feminism needs to be substantially enlarged to incorporate the vast canvass covered and the role played by women in realising the aspirations of the common people including women. Thus, the author provides some representative case-study materials on Indian women in struggle (Shahada, anti-arrack, and Chipko, etc) while taking care to point out the too common assumption that these, particularly the last one, are or were women's movements. This is followed by an account of how women have been defined as a problem by various Indian plans and how women's issues are so often written around (or under) the state's desire to control female bodies in the name of national population planning. The discussion here maintains a critical edge in bringing together a narrative of Indian planning around ‘women’ with several remarks on (and drawn from) Western and non-Western feminisms.

Annotation:
The Indian Chipko movement is analyzed as a case study employing a geographically-informed political ecology approach. Political ecology as a framework for the study of environmental movements provides insight into the complex issues surrounding the structure of Indian society, with particular attention to its ecological and political dimensions. This framework, with its focus on social structure and ecology, is distinct from the more traditional approaches to the study of social movements, which tend to essentialize their purpose and membership, often by focusing on a single dimension of the movement and its context. Using Chipko as a case-study, the author demonstrates how a geographical approach to political ecology avoids some of this essentialization by encouraging a holistic analysis of environmental movements that is characterized by a bottom-up analysis, grounded at the local level, which also considers the wider context of the movements growth by synthesizing socio-political and ecological analyses. Also explored are questions on the importance of gender-informed approaches to the study of environmental activism and participation in environmental movements in India.

Annotation:
L’obiettivo della mia tesi è quello di indagare il contesto in cui nasce e si sviluppa il pensiero ecofemminista nell’ India post-indipendenza. Nel primo capitolo, lo scopo è quello di partire da un quadro generale e teorico dei principi ecologici e femministi sviluppati da attiviste indiane, tra cui Vandana Shiva. Quest’ultima spiega il discorso che legittima una gestione sconsiderata della natura, le metafore di sviluppo che nascondono interessi capitalistici, ma soprattutto le conseguenze di tutto ciò in India, dove l’ambiente circostante è fonte primaria di sussistenza e dove forme antiche di conoscenza ecologica, conservata dalle donne dei villaggi, viene minacciata da progetti di uno sviluppo ineguale. Nel secondo capitolo si passa alla situazione concreta dell’azione collettiva, portata avanti per prima dalle donne del movimento Chipko. Queste donne, provenienti dalle regioni montuose dell’Himalaya, sono state le prime vittime di pratiche forestali a scopi industriali che hanno distrutto i loro mezzi di sostentamento. Per questo motivo si sono organizzate creando un fronte comune di opposizione alle autorità e ai fautori dei progetti di sviluppo, diventando simbolo di sostenibilità e di simbiosi tra uomo e natura. Nel terzo capitolo l’argomento centrale è sempre l’opposizione a grandi progetti di modernizzazione territoriale, questa volta rivolto alle dighe. In particolar modo viene analizzato il caso del “Progetto di sviluppo della Valle di Narmada”, all’interno del quale la controversa costruzione della diga Sardar Sarovar ha avuto effetti devastanti sulla popolazione della valle e in particolar modo sui gruppi meno favoriti, quali contadini, tribali e donne. Anche in questo caso movimenti dal basso hanno cominciato a organizzarsi contando un consistente numero di donne, e quindi contribuendo a una nuova consapevolezza del loro ruolo come agenti attivi nelle trasformazioni sociali delle comunità dei villaggi. Le loro proteste hanno ottenuto importanti risultati a livello locale ma anche internazionale. Filo conduttore dei vari movimenti di opposizione citati è il loro modus operandi, ossia il principio gandhiano del Satyagraha e della resistenza non violenta.

Annotation:
Declining populations of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter sage-grouse) have increased stakeholder concerns regarding the management and stability of the species range-wide. Numerous conservation strategies have been identified to restoring sage-grouse population declines to include species translocations. Translocations have been used for many different wildlife species to help sustain genetic heterogeneity, reestablish, and augment declining populations. In a recent translocation study, researchers identified the protocols used to successfully translocate sage-grouse to restore declining populations in Strawberry Valley, Utah. This translocation occurred in a high elevation basin buffered by geomorphic barriers. I evaluated these protocols for use in translocating sage-grouse to augment a declining population that inhabited Anthro Mountain in northwest Utah. Anthro Mountain is a high elevation mountain dominated by sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) void of geomorphic barriers. I compared annual production, survival (i.e., vital rates), habitat use, and movements of translocated birds and their progeny to the resident population. Lastly, I described the integration of translocated birds with resident birds and the overall efficacy of the translocation effort. I radio-collared and monitored 60 translocated female sage-grouse from Parker Mountain, Utah over a 2-year period (2009 and 2010) and compared their vital rates to 19 radio-marked resident sage-grouse. Adult survival was similar for resident and translocated birds, but higher for both groups in 2010 than in 2009. However, overall survival of both resident and translocated birds was lower than range-wide survival estimates. Nest success was slightly higher for resident birds than translocated birds but positively correlated to grass height for both groups. Chick survival was also slightly higher for resident birds than for translocated birds, and higher overall in 2010 than in 2009. Chick survival was positively correlated to grass cover for both groups. Translocated birds used similar habitats and exhibited migration behaviors similar to resident birds. From a methodology perspective, the translocations protocols were successful because the translocated birds quickly acclimated to the release area, and their survival and reproductive success were similar to the resident birds. The effect of the translocation on augmenting the local population was inconclusive.

High-performance computing (HPC) systems have become power limited. For instance, the U.S. Department of Energy set a power envelope of 20MW in 2008 for the first exascale supercomputer now expected to arrive in 2021--22. Toward this end, we seek to improve the greenness of HPC systems by improving their performance per watt at the allocated power budget. In this dissertation, we develop a series of models and techniques to manage power at micro-, meso-, and macro-levels of the system hierarchy, specifically addressing data movement and heterogeneity. We target the chip interconnect at the micro-level, heterogeneous nodes at the meso-level, and a supercomputing cluster at the macro-level. Overall, our goal is to improve the greenness of HPC systems by intelligently managing power. The first part of this dissertation focuses on measurement and modeling problems for power. First, we study how to infer chip-interconnect power by observing the system-wide power consumption. Our proposal is to design a novel micro-benchmarking methodology based on data-movement distance by which we can properly isolate the chip interconnect and measure its power. Next, we study how to develop software power meters to monitor a GPU's power consumption at runtime. Our proposal is to adapt performance counter-based models for their use at runtime via a combination of heuristics, statistical techniques, and application-specific knowledge. In the second part of this dissertation, we focus on managing power. First, we propose to reduce the chip-interconnect power by proactively managing its dynamic voltage and frequency (DVFS) state. Toward this end, we develop a novel phase predictor that uses approximate pattern matching to forecast future requirements and in turn, proactively manage power. Second, we study the problem of applying a power cap to a heterogeneous node. Our proposal proactively manages the GPU power using phase prediction and a DVFS power model but reactively manages the CPU. The resulting hybrid approach can take advantage of the differences in the capabilities of the two devices. Third, we study how in-situ techniques can be applied to improve the greenness of HPC clusters. Overall, in our dissertation, we demonstrate that it is possible to infer power consumption of real hardware components without directly measuring them, using the chip interconnect and GPU as examples. We also demonstrate that it is possible to build models of sufficient accuracy and apply them for intelligently managing power at many levels of the system hierarchy.
Doctor of Philosophy
Past research in green high-performance computing (HPC) mostly focused on managing the power consumed by general-purpose processors, known as central processing units (CPUs) and to a lesser extent, memory. In this dissertation, we study two increasingly important components: interconnects (predominantly focused on those inside a chip, but not limited to them) and graphics processing units (GPUs). Our contributions in this dissertation include a set of innovative measurement techniques to estimate the power consumed by the target components, statistical and analytical approaches to develop power models and their optimizations, and algorithms to manage power statically and at runtime. Experimental results show that it is possible to build models of sufficient accuracy and apply them for intelligently managing power on multiple levels of the system hierarchy: chip interconnect at the micro-level, heterogeneous nodes at the meso-level, and a supercomputing cluster at the macro-level.

A pesquisa aqui apresentada centra-se na movimentação cultural conhecida como Movimento Mangue ou Manguebeat, que tomou forma no Recife, na década de 1990. Mais especificamente, estudam-se as obras das duas bandas de maior repercussão dentro do movimento: Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi. Através de sua descrição e estudo, deseja-se verificar se é possível caracterizar o Manguebeat enquanto um movimento de vanguarda. Para isso, busca-se nos estudos de Guillermo de Torre, Peter Bürger, Gonzalo Aguilar, Antonio Candido, Ferreira Gullar, entre outros críticos, uma definição para o conceito de vanguarda. Depois, procura-se traçar de que modo os conceitos angariados norteariam as análises desta dissertação. A seguir, verifica-se a possível existência de duas vertentes dentro do Manguebeat: uma representada por Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e por Nação Zumbi e seu conceito de Mangue; e outra que agrupa os demais artistas participantes da movimentação. Ao fazer esta distinção, é possível compreender as diferenças entre o trabalho das duas primeiras bandas e o dos outros vários artistas que também se integraram ao movimento. Será visto que Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi concentram em suas canções um ideal vanguardista bastante relevante, especialmente no que concerne o afastamento do particular, conforme noção de Guillermo de Torre. Foi organizado, então, um corpus de canções dessas bandas, de modo a verificar quais características vanguardistas encontradas nos estudos acerca do tema estariam presentes em suas obras. Busca-se também mostrar alguns aspectos e trabalhos mais relevantes dentre aqueles que fazem parte do segundo conjunto de artistas, que também fizeram parte do movimento, mas compartilhando com as primeiras apenas a noção de liberdade criativa, e não todos os preceitos do conceito de Mangue. Acredita-se que foi possível determinar que tanto o trabalho de Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi, quanto o Manguebeat como um todo, podem ser considerados movimento de vanguarda, graças, entre outros aspectos, à ruptura que provocam em seu contexto cultural.
The research presented here is focused in the cultural movement known as Movimento Mangue or Manguebeat, which appeared in the Brazilian city of Recife in the 1990’s. More specifically, the works of the two most important in the movement bands is studied: Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi. Through its description and study, it is wished to verify if it is possible to characterize Manguebeat as an Avant-garde movement. In order to achieve that objective, we will analyze the studies of Guillermo de Torre, Peter Bürger, Gonzalo Aguilar, Antonio Candido, Ferreira Gullar, and other critics, searching for a definition to the concept of Avant-garde. Afterwards, we will trace in which ways the concepts raised will guide the analysis of the thesis. Hereafter, a possible existence of two sides inside Manguebeat will be verified: one represented by Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi and their concept of Mangue; and another one that groups the other artists that took part in the movement. By making this distinction, it will be possible to understand the differences between the work of the two first bands cited and that of the other artists that also joined the movement. It is observed observed that Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi concentrate in their songs an Avant-garde ideal quite relevant, especially in what concerns the rejection of what is particular, following the notion of Guillermo de Torre. A corpus will then be organized, formed by songs of these two bands, in order to verify which Avant-garde characteristics found in the studies of the theme would be present in their works. It is also our intention to show some aspects and more relevant works among those that are part of the second group of artists: those who took part in the movement, but only sharing with the first two the notion of creative freedom, and not the whole concept of Mangue. It is intended then to determine whether both the works of Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi and Manguebeat as a whole can be considered Avant-garde, thanks to, among other aspects, the break they bring to their cultural context.

Annotation:
The avian embryo is a popular animal model because it is widely available (Antin et al., 2004), it is easily manipulated, and it can provide important insights into normal and abnormal embryo development (Kulesa, 2004). While in vivo and in vitro cultures of chick embryos are common, in ovo cultures are rarer, and none have been designed where the egg did not have to be resealed afterwards. The present study aimed to develop a set-up in which the egg would be windowed without resealing the egg so that the embryo would remain accessible for experimental manipulation. As well, this study aimed to track cell movement during neurulation by microinjecting points of dye along the embryo. Two prototypes were developed based on the concept that temperature and moisture controlled air passing over the windowed egg would serve as a blanket. When these prototypes were unable to keep the embryo alive, a protocol developed by Kulesa and Fraser (2004) was adapted for the study. This protocol involved the construction of a Teflon window which was placed in the windowed egg and sealed with beeswax. Initial microinjection tests with Fast Green FCF showed that the dye dissipated quickly after injection, most likely because of the hydrophilicity of the dye. Therefore, a list of non-fluorescent, hydrophobic dyes were chosen and tested for suitability to cell tracking. Time restrictions prevented the actual cell tracking experiments from taking place, but it was found that Oil Red O fulfilled the criteria. As Oil Red O is usually used to identify lipids in static experiments, it remains to be seen whether it would function as a vital dye. Future experiments include expanding the set-up for use with a confocal microscope for a 4-D rendering of cell movement, and taking advantage of the symmetrical nature of neurulation in the chick embryo to examine perturbations to the normal progress of development, via drugs such as valproic acid.

Annotation:
Ecofeminism perceives an interconnection between the domination of women and poor people, and the domination of nature. This domination is founded on modern, Western, patriarchal, dualised structures, which subordinate all considered as "the other" compared to the superior masculine archetype. Hence, all feminine is seen as inferior and may therefore be exploited. This is presently manifested in the neo-liberal economic development ideal. Its global penetration generates huge economic profits, which are reaped by Northern and Southern elites, while its devastating crises of poverty, violence, environmental destruction, and human rights abuses makes life increasingly unmanageable for Southern women, poor people and nature. Feminism and ecology have therefore come together aiming at liberating women, poor people and nature. They want to change the dualised, reductionist perception of reality into a holistic cosmology. Ecofeminism consequently aims to integrate the concerns of women, poor people and nature into development.

In her detailed retelling of three iconic movements in India, Professor Emerita Krishna Mallick, PhD, gives hope to grassroots activists working toward environmental justice. Each movement deals with a different crisis and affected population: Chipko, famed for tree-hugging women in the Himalayan forest; Narmada, for villagers displaced by a massive dam; and Navdanya, for hundreds of thousands of farmers whose livelihoods were lost to a compact made by the Indian government and neoliberal purveyors of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Relentlessly researched, the book presents these movements in a framework that explores Hindu Vedic wisdom, as well as Development Ethics, Global Environment Ethics, Feminist Care Ethics, and the Capability Approach. At a moment when the climate threatens populations who live closest to nature--and depend upon its fodder for heat, its water for life, and its seeds for food--Mallick shows how nonviolent action can give poor people an effective voice.

By taking the Tasty Chips GR-1 granular synthesizer as a case study, this chapter explores how digital technology has changed the nature of the materiality of sound. Digitisation enables the manipulation of sound in ways that were impossible before, which is done via movements that interact with an interface. In a sense, digital technologies turned sound from an intangible thing into a tangible object, and in doing so, radically changed the material nature of sound.

AbstractConventional measuring techniques and equipment such as the level and total-station are commonly used in on-site construction to measure the position of building elements. However, a motion capture system can measure the dynamic 3D movements of markers attached to any target structure with high accuracy and high sampling rate. Considering the characteristics of prefabricated structures that is composed by lot of discrete building elements, advanced requirements for the on-site assembly monitoring is required. This paper introduces an innovative real-time monitoring technique for the DfD-based (Design for Disassembly) structure with the application of motion capture system and other hardware in an IoT-based BIM system. The design and construction method of the structure system, on-site setup of monitoring system and hardware, data acquisition and analysis method, calibration algorithm as well as the BIM system are further illustrated in the paper. The proposed method is finally applied in a real building project that is composed by thousand discrete building elements and covers a large area of 50*25 m. As demonstrator, such monitoring system is applied in the real construction of a DfD-based prefabricated steel structure in the “Water Cube” (Chinese National Aquatics Centre) in Beijing. The building process is successfully recorded and displayed on-site with the digital twin model in the BIM system. The construction states of the building elements are gathered with different kind of IoT techniques such as the RfID chips and QR-Codes. With the demand to control the flatness tolerance within 6 mm (within a 25*50 m area), a large area monitoring system was applied in the project and finally reduced the construction time within 20 days. The final tolerance is verified and further discussed2.

This chapter examines the iconic Chipko movement of the 1970s that protested against deforestation in the Himalayan region using the nonviolent gesture of hugging the trees, thereby showing the interconnectedness of the poor women’s livelihood with natural resources. The movement had three strands: one led by Chandi Prasad Bhatt, the second led by Sunderlal Bahuguna which applied the Gandhian method of satyagraha and was embraced mostly by poor women of the region, and the third being the Marxist and radical strand which was later dissolved. The chapter explores how the Chipko movement emerged initially as a peasants’ movement but later became quite complex and attracted great public support within India and outside. This was the first time that the environmental aspect was introduced into the development discourse.

Three Indian environmental movements are analyzed – the Chipko movement of the 1970s against deforestation, Narmada Bachao Andolan in the 1980s against dam-building, and Navdanya, the contemporary movement against genetically modified organisms (GMOs) – from three dimensions: nonviolence, feminism, and environmentalism. Each of these movements has accomplished its goals, with Chipko achieving a 15-year ban on tree-cutting, NBA succeeding in slowing down the building of dams on the Narmada river through litigation with the help of the World Bank and still fighting for the resettlement and rehabilitation of the displaced people, and Navdanya promoting local organic seeds for small farmers in India whose rights have been violated by multinational corporations monopolizing GM crops. The three movements followed three principles: environmental justice, intergenerational equality, and respect for nature.

There are great advantages in dry hobbing not only for friendliness on the environment, but also for increasing productivity and for decreasing manufacturing cost. Dry hobbing, however, often causes failures of cutting edge of hob or problems about the surface quality of tooth flank of manufactured gear, which have not been of problem in case of hobbing with cutting oil. Pinching and crushing of generated chips between cutting edge of hob and tooth flank of work gear is considered to be a major cause for those problems. In this report, a calculating method of trace of each cutting edge of hob relative to work gear is compiled to simulate the clearance between cutting edge of hob and tooth flank of work gear. The thickness and form of generated chip and its movement on rake surface of hob tooth during hobbing process can be clarified by consulting the result of this simulation. Probability of pinching of chips between cutting edges of hob and tooth flank can be evaluated by dealing with the relation among the position and width of clearance, chip thickness and direction of chip movement, which contributes to successful dry hobbing.

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Metal cutting/machining is a widely used manufacturing process for producing high-precision parts at a low cost and with high throughput. In the automotive industry, engine components such as cylinder heads or engine blocks are all manufactured using such processes. Despite its cost benefits, manufacturers often face the problem of machining chips and cutting oil residue remaining on the finished surface or falling into the internal cavities after machining operations, and these wastes can be very difficult to clean. While part cleaning/washing equipment suppliers often claim that their washers have superior performance, determining the washing efficiency is challenging without means to visualize the water flow. In this paper, a virtual engineering methodology using particle-based CFD is developed to address the issue of metal chip cleanliness resulting from engine component machining operations. This methodology comprises two simulation methods. The first is the virtual chip test, which can track the movement of machining chips within internal cavities and tunnels of a machined part, such as the water jackets and oil galleries of a cylinder head, and the simulation results can be used to predict chip clogging locations and severity. Next, the chip clogging data are input into the second method, washer simulation, to design chip washers and washing cycles that can effectively remove the machining chips. The advantage of this methodology lies in its capability to quantify chip cleanliness risks as well as washing efficiencies with numerical quality indices, enabling comparisons of chip cleaning difficulties and evaluations of chip washer performance. The innovation of this methodology is the adaptation of a particle-based CFD method to model the behavior of machining chips as well as the dynamics of water jets in the chip washer.</div></div>

At the end of gastrulation, the endoderm forms a single-cell thick epithelium lining the ventral surface of the developing embryo. Subsequently, through a series of poorly understood events, the initially flat endoderm is transformed into the gut tube, a cylindrical structure that gives rise to the epithelial lining of the entire respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. In birds and mammals, formation of the gut tube begins with two invaginations at the anterior (head) and posterior (tail) poles of the embryo, termed the anterior (AIP) and caudal intestinal portals (CIP). It is thought that the AIP and CIP begin moving toward one another as two progressing waves of lateral-to medial folding (from left and right toward center), “zipping” the gut tube closed along the embryonic midline (Fig. 1A). This view of lateral-to-medial folding is, however, inconsistent with several observations. For example, fate mapping studies in chick and mouse that suggest that cells originating in the posterior end (toward the tail) of the flat endoderm do not form the hindgut, but instead contribute to the more anterior midgut [1, 2]. This would not be possible in a simple lateral-to-medial folding process. Therefore, it is largely unknown how this fundamental structure of the vertebrate body plan is established. The objective of the present work is to apply multi-photon live imaging of the chick embryo to determine how the hindgut is formed. Our findings suggest the hindgut arises from directed, collective cell movements that drive antero-posterior folding of the initially flat endoderm.

Abstract Drilling is one of most executed manufacturing operations to assist the assembling of different engineering components. In orbital drilling process, a milling tool is rotating along its own axis in combination with the spiral rotational movement. The rotation of tool about its own axis is with high rotational speed, but the spiral movement of tool is at low rotational speed. These rotational movements generate a hollow geometry when moved in combination. Orbital drilling process is emerging as a viable drilling process when burr formation has to be reduced from the metallic workpiece. It is gaining more popularity in the aerospace industry due to its ability to machine holes in difficult to cut alloys, composites and composite stacks. Major advantages of orbital drilling are linked with efficient chip evacuation, reduction in heat build-up and low thrust forces due to its intermittent cutting nature. The cutting forces generated during the process can be taken as a significant output parameter that play a vital role towards the overall performance of the cutting process. Controlling the cutting forces under threshold value can improve the overall machining efficiency by limiting associated deflections, tool wear and energy consumption. The current paper aims to study the orbital drilling process using finite element (FE) assisted numerical methodology. The study will utilize different orbital drilling parameters such as spindle speed, orbit speed and axial feed rate, and explore their influence on the over all machining process.

PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) is widely used as a microfluidic chip material for various applications due to its desirable properties [1, 2]. However PDMS has several drawbacks that limit its utilization in a number of microfluidic applications [1–4]. Properties such as the hydrophobic nature, sample absorption, and low electrokinetic properties (low zeta potential) are some issues that must be considered before using PDMS for numerous applications [3]. In many PDMS based chips electroosmotic pumping is used for fluid flow and sample transport along the microchannel networks. Simplicity of implementation in microfluidic chips, fast response time, and the plug-like velocity profile are the major advantages of electroosmotic flow compared to other fluid pumping techniques [2]. This type of flow utilizes the formation of electric double layer (EDL) in microchannels and the movement of ions under an applied external electric field. Thus, the surface properties of the channel material and liquid properties (ionic concentration, pH, and viscosity) play major roles in electroosmotic pumping for different solutions in microchannels.

Extending the previous two years of research results (Mizarch, et al, 2012, Tao, 2011, 2012), the third year’s efforts in both Maryland and Israel were directed towards the engineering of the system. The activities included the robust chick handling and its conveyor system development, optical system improvement, online dynamic motion imaging of chicks, multi-image sequence optimal feather extraction and detection, and pattern recognition. Mechanical System Engineering The third model of the mechanical chick handling system with high-speed imaging system was built as shown in Fig. 1. This system has the improved chick holding cups and motion mechanisms that enable chicks to open wings through the view section. The mechanical system has achieved the speed of 4 chicks per second which exceeds the design specs of 3 chicks per second. In the center of the conveyor, a high-speed camera with UV sensitive optical system, shown in Fig.2, was installed that captures chick images at multiple frames (45 images and system selectable) when the chick passing through the view area. Through intensive discussions and efforts, the PIs of Maryland and ARO have created the protocol of joint hardware and software that uses sequential images of chick in its fall motion to capture opening wings and extract the optimal opening positions. This approached enables the reliable feather feature extraction in dynamic motion and pattern recognition. Improving of Chick Wing Deployment The mechanical system for chick conveying and especially the section that cause chicks to deploy their wings wide open under the fast video camera and the UV light was investigated along the third study year. As a natural behavior, chicks tend to deploy their wings as a mean of balancing their body when a sudden change in the vertical movement was applied. In the latest two years, this was achieved by causing the chicks to move in a free fall, in the earth gravity (g) along short vertical distance. The chicks have always tended to deploy their wing but not always in wide horizontal open situation. Such position is requested in order to get successful image under the video camera. Besides, the cells with checks bumped suddenly at the end of the free falling path. That caused the chicks legs to collapse inside the cells and the image of wing become bluer. For improving the movement and preventing the chick legs from collapsing, a slowing down mechanism was design and tested. This was done by installing of plastic block, that was printed in a predesign variable slope (Fig. 3) at the end of the path of falling cells (Fig.4). The cells are moving down in variable velocity according the block slope and achieve zero velocity at the end of the path. The slop was design in a way that the deacceleration become 0.8g instead the free fall gravity (g) without presence of the block. The tests showed better deployment and wider chick's wing opening as well as better balance along the movement. Design of additional sizes of block slops is under investigation. Slops that create accelerations of 0.7g, 0.9g, and variable accelerations are designed for improving movement path and images.

This article discusses the current state of neurointerface technologies, not limited to deep electrode approaches. There are new heuristic ideas for creating a fast and broadband channel from the brain to artificial intelligence. One of the ideas is not to decipher the natural codes of nerve cells, but to create conditions for the development of a new language for communication between the human brain and artificial intelligence tools. Theoretically, this is possible if the brain "feels" that by changing the activity of nerve cells that communicate with the computer, it is possible to "achieve" the necessary actions for the body in the external environment, for example, to take a cup of coffee or turn on your favorite music. At the same time, an artificial neural network that analyzes the flow of nerve impulses must also be directed at the brain, trying to guess the body's needs at the moment with a minimum number of movements. The most important obstacle to further progress is the problem of biocompatibility, which has not yet been resolved. This is even more important than the number of electrodes and the power of the processors on the chip. When you insert a foreign object into your brain, it tries to isolate itself from it. This is a multidisciplinary topic not only for doctors and psychophysiologists, but also for engineers, programmers, mathematicians. Of course, the problem is complex and it will be possible to overcome it only with joint efforts.

Original objectives and revisions-The proposed research included these original objectives: field validation of diagnostic tests (PCR), the development and evaluation of new sensitive tools (LC-PCR/TaqManPCR, antibody detection by ELISA) including their use to study the ecology and the epidemiology of KHV (virus distribution in the environment and native cyprinids) and the carrier status of fish exposed experimentally or naturally to KHV (sites of virus replication and potential persistence or latency). In the course of the study we completed the genome sequence of KHV and developed a DNA array to study the expression of KHV genes in different conditions. Background to the topics-Mass mortality of koi or common carp has been observed in Israel, USA, Europe and Asia. These outbreaks have reduced exports of koi from Israel and have created fear about production, import, and movements of koi and have raised concerns about potential impacts on native cyprinid populations in the U.S.A. Major conclusions-A suite of new diagnostic tools was developed that included 3 PCR assays for detection of KHV DNA in cell culture and fish tissues and an ELISA assay capable of detecting anti-KHV antibodies in the serum of koi and common carp. The TKPCR assay developed during the grant has become an internationally accepted gold standard for detection of viral DNA. Additionally, the ELISA developed for detecting serum anti-KHV antibodies is now in wide use as a major nonlethal screening tool for evaluating virus status of koi and common carp populations. Real time PCR assays have been able to detect viral DNA in the internal organs of survivors of natural and wild type vaccine exposures at 1 and 10³ genome equivalents at 7 months after exposure. In addition, vaccinated fish were able to transmit the virus to naive fish. Potential control utilizing hybrids of goldfish and common carp for production demonstrated they were considerably more resistant than pure common carp or koi to both KHV (CyHV-3). There was no evidence that goldfish or other tested endemic cyprinids species were susceptible to KHV. The complete genomic sequencing of 3 strains from Japan, the USA, and Israel revealed a 295 kbp genome containing a 22 kbp terminal direct repeat encoding clear gene homologs to other fish herpesviruses in the family Herpesviridae. The genome encodes156 unique protein-coding genes, eight of which are duplicated in the terminal repeat. Four to seven genes are fragmented and the loss of these genes may be associated with the high virulence of the virus. Viral gene expression was studies by a newly developed chip which has allowed verification of transcription of most all hypothetical genes (ORFs) as well as their kinetics. Implications, both scientific and agricultural- The results from this study have immediate application for the control and management of KHV. The proposal provides elements key to disease management with improved diagnostic tools. Studies on the ecology of the virus also provide insights into management of the virus at the farms that farmers will be able to apply immediately to reduce risks of infections. Lastly, critical issues that surround present procedures used to create “resistant fish” must be be resolved (e.g. carriers, risks, etc.). Currently stamping out may be effective in eradicating the disease. The emerging disease caused by KHV continues to spread. With the economic importance of koi and carp and the vast international movements of koi for the hobby, this disease has the potential for even further spread. The results from our studies form a critical component of a comprehensive program to curtail this emerging pathogen at the local, regional and international levels.
