Abstract:
The localization of partial discharges in air-insulated substations using ultra-high frequency technology is widely studied for power equipment early warning purposes. Ultra-high frequency partial discharge localization systems are usually based on the time-difference of electromagnetic wave signals. However, the large size of test equipment and the need for a high sampling rate and time synchronization accuracy limit their practical application. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a power-based partial discharge direction of arrival method using a received signal strength indicator from an ultra-high frequency wireless sensor array. Furthermore, the Gaussian mixture model is used for noise suppression, and the Gaussian process classifier is used for line of sight received signal strength indicator data identification. Laboratory tests are performed and the results show the average error of direction of arrival is less than 5°. The results verify the effectiveness of the proposed partial discharge localization system.

Abstract:
During 1960–2002, the arrival times of all spawning male and female Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L., 1758) and brown trout (Salmo trutta L., 1758) entering Dalälven River were recorded. To study the role of environmental variation in spawning migration timing, we used long-term temperature (river and sea) and river discharge data. For salmon, the spawning migration peak was strongly correlated with mean monthly sea and river temperatures during spring: salmon arrived earlier when temperatures were higher and later when temperatures were lower. River discharge explained little of the variation in migration timing. Female salmon migration showed a stronger correlation with temperature than male salmon migration, and female salmon arrived ≈18 days earlier than males. Trout showed a larger variation in their spawning migration, but river and sea temperatures and river discharge explained little of the variation. Trout females arrived ≈7 days earlier than males. The sea and river temperatures were highly correlated during the spawning migration, indicating that large climate processes determine the temperature regimes in the Baltic Sea and its tributaries. Time of arrival at the river was not correlated with ovulation date; a female salmon or brown trout arriving late could ovulate almost immediately, whereas a female arriving early could wait to ovulate.

Abstract:
A technique for calculating the parameters of a magnetic switch as an element of a generator of short high-voltage pulses of tension to coordinate its compatible work with a water treatment chamber by dint of pulse barrier discharge is shown. The expediency and efficiency of using such a switch as an element that, by shunting, the discharge chamber, discharges the barrier to the arrival of the next voltage pulse has been confirmed. It is proved that with the accepted geometrical dimensions of the discharge chamber and the amplitude of the pulse voltage, provided that the magnetic switch is present that it is possible to increase the practical use of electricity by ~ 40% due to that which was accumulated in the dielectric barrier in one discharge.

Abstract:
Introduction: With respect to care setting, there are mixed results in the literature with respect to the role of trauma centers in management of isolated geriatric hip fractures. During a transition from a Level 3 to a Level 1 trauma center, significant protocol changes were implemented that sought to standardize and improve the care of hip fracture patients. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of this transition on the management, efficiency, morbidity, mortality, and discharge of geriatric hip fracture patients. Methods: A retrospective chart review of geriatric hip fractures treated operatively was conducted. Two cohorts were compared: hip fractures in the year prior to (2015) and year following (2017) Level 1 Trauma designation. Primary outcome measures were length of stay (LOS), transfusion rate, complication rate, and mortality rate. Secondary outcome measures were time from emergency department (ED) arrival to medical optimization, time from medical optimization to surgery, time from ED arrival to surgery, and discharge destination. Results: There were no differences in LOS, transfusion rate, or complication rate between the two cohorts. There was a nonsignificant trend toward lower in-hospital mortality after the transition (2.24% vs 0.83%). There were no differences in time from ED arrival to medical optimization, time from medical optimization to surgery, time from ED arrival to surgery, and percentage of patients discharged home between the cohorts. Discussion: Management of operative geriatric hip fractures at our institution has remained consistent following transition to a Level 1 trauma center. There was a trend toward lower mortality after transition, but this difference was not statistically significant. We attribute the variety of findings in the literature with respect to trauma center management of hip fractures to individualized institutional trauma protocols as well as the diverse patient populations these centers serve.

Abstract:
In order to evaluate the feasibility of installing decentralised installations for wastewater reuse in cities, information about flows at specific spots of a sewer is needed. However, measuring intermittent flows in partially filled conduits is a technical task which is sometimes difficult to accomplish. This paper describes a method to model intermittent discharges in small sewers by linking a stochastic model for wastewater discharge to a hydraulic model to predict the attenuation of the discharges and its impact on the arrival time to a defined spot. The method was validated in a case study. The model estimated adequately the wastewater discharges on working days.

Abstract:
Apart from interfering in the communication system of an aircraft, electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) radiated from spark discharge plasma, which is generated during high-speed flight, can also be utilized in passive detection. In order to validate this idea, an experiment on direction of arrival (DOA) estimation of a spark discharge plasma target using its radiated EMPs is carried out in this paper. A combined time-domain antenna is designed based on the model of spark discharge process and is used to receive the radiated EMPs during the experiment. According to the experimental results, the DOA estimation system with combined antenna is able to obtain the direction information of a spark discharge plasma. Results also show that the estimation performance of elevation angle is better when the actual elevation angle of the discharge plasma target is higher, while the estimation performance of azimuth is opposite. The azimuth angle of a target has very little influence on the DOA estimation. Moreover, the estimation error can be reduced effectively by increasing the aperture size of receiving array. The previously mentioned results provide an approach to locate the discharge plasma source using radiated EMPs with passive detection techniques.

Abstract:
The wait time clients spend during immunization clinic visits in low- and middle-income countries is a not well-understood reported barrier to vaccine completion. We used a prospective, observational design to document the total time from client arrival-to-discharge and all sequential provider-client activities in 1 urban, semi-urban, and rural immunization clinic in Nigeria. We also conducted caregiver and provider focus group discussions to identify perceived determinants of long clinic wait times. Our findings show that the time from arrival-to-discharge varied significantly by the clinic and ranged between 57 and 235 minutes, as did arrival-to-all providers-client activities. Focus group data attributed workflow delays to clinic staff waiting for a critical mass of clients to arrive for their immunization appointment before starting the essential health education talk or opening specific vaccine vials. Additionally, respondents indicated that complex documentation processes caused system delays. Research on clinic workflow transformation and simplification of immunization documentation is needed.

Abstract:
The increase in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) for primary care poses a serious safety issue in the care that can be provided. In a care area that is overcrowded, physicians, nurses, ancillary department staff, and other care team members may have a difficult time delivering care. Poorly managed flow in the ED leads to overcrowding, and patients with life-threatening illnesses are less likely to be transitioned to designated specialized areas in a safe and efficient manner. The practice-focused question was whether processes to improve the flow of patients entering the ED decreased the number of patients leaving without being seen, decreased time from the time entering the ED to hospital admission, improved the average length of stay, and increased patient satisfaction. The plan-do-check-act methodology was used to address this quality improvement project. Results of the project demonstrated a decrease in the number of patients leaving without being seen, a decrease in the time entering the ED to hospital admission, a decrease in average length of stay, and an increase in patient satisfaction. This project provided positive social change to the patients, families, organization, and community by improving the ED processes to ensure patient needs were addressed as rapidly as possible.

Abstract:
In this thesis, a system to locate an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event within an electronic device has been developed. ESD can cause a device to fail legally required radiated emissions limits as well as disrupt intended operation. The system used a fast oscilloscope with four channels, each channel attached to a high frequency near-field antenna. These antennas were placed at known locations in three dimensional space to measure the fields radiated from the ESD event. A Time-Difference-of-Arrival technique was used to calculate the location of the ESD event. Quick determination of the ESD event location provides developers with a tool that saves them time and money by eliminating the time-consuming and tedious method of general ESD mitigation within a product.

Abstract:
A partial discharge (PD) is the dissipation of energy caused by the buildup of localized electric field intensity. In high voltage devices such as transformers, this buildup of charge and its release can be symptomatic of problems associated with aging, such as floating components and insulation breakdown. This is why PD detection is used in power systems to monitor the state of health of high voltage transformers. If such problems are not detected and repaired, the strength and frequency of PDs increases and eventually leads to the catastrophic failure of the transformer, which can cause external equipment damage, fires and loss of revenue due to an unscheduled outage. Reliable online PD detection is a critical need for power companies to improve personnel safety and decrease the potential for loss of service. The PD phenomenon is manifested in a variety of physically observable signals including electric and acoustic pulses and is currently detected using a host of exterior measurement techniques. These techniques include electrical lead tapping and piezoelectric transducer (PZT) based acoustic detection. Many modern systems use a combination of these techniques because electrical detection is an older and proven technology and acoustic detection allows for the source to be located when several sensors are mounted to the exterior of the tank. However, if an acoustic sensor could be placed inside the tank, not only would acoustic detection be easier due to the increased signal amplitude and elimination of multipath interference, but positioning could also be performed with more accuracy in a shorter time. This thesis presents a fiber optic acoustic sensing system design that can be used to detect and locate PD sources within a high voltage transformer. The system is based on an optical acoustic (OA) sensor that is capable of surviving the harsh environment of the transformer interior while not compromising the transformerâ s functionality, which allows for online detection and positioning. This thesis presents the theoretical functionality and experimental validation of a band-limited OA sensor with a usable range of 100-300 kHz, which is consistent with the frequency content of an acoustic pulse caused by a PD event. It also presents a positioning system using the time difference of arrival (TDOA) of the acoustic pulse with respect to four sensors that is capable of reporting the three-dimensional position of a PD to within ±5cm on any axis.

Abstract:
Power transformers are one of the most important components in the electrical energy network. Extending transformer life is very economically valuable due to power outage. Therefore the development of instruments to monitor the transformer condition is of great interest. Detection of partial discharges (PDs) in power transformers is an effective diagnostic because it may reveal and quantify an important aging factor and provide information on the condition of the transformer. However, partial discharge diagnostics are still not effectively used for online monitoring of transformers because of the complexity of PD measurements and difficulties of discriminating of PDs and other noise sources. This thesis presents a further study of detection and location of partial discharges in power transformers based on previous work conducted at the Center for Photonics Technology (CPT) at Virginia Tech. The detection and positioning system consists of multiple extrinsic Fabry-Parot interferometric (EFPI) fiber acoustic sensors which can survive the harsh environment of oil-filled transformers. This thesis work is focused on optimal arrangement of multiple sensors to monitor and locate PD activities in a power transformer. This includes the following aspects. First, the sensor design requirements are discussed in order to successfully detect and accurately position the PD sources. In the following sections, Finite Element Method (FEM) is used to model the EFPI sensor fabricated at CPT. Experiments were conducted to measure the angular dependence of the frequency response of the sensor. It is shown that within the range of ±45º incident angles, the sensitivity varies by 3-5dB. Finally, the thesis demonstrates a PD positioning experiment in a 500 gallon water tank (R à H = 74" à 30" cylinder) using a hyperbolic positioning algorithm and time difference of arrival (TDOA). Finally we demonstrated that 100% of the positioning data is bounded by a 22.7à 4.1à 5.3 mm3 cube, with a sensing range of 810 mm using the leading edge method with FIR filtering.

Abstract:
The thesis discusses the design and experimental verification of a new method for detecting partial discharges in oil-cooled high-power transformers, emphasizing the origin of the measured signal from the outer and inner regions of the transformer tank. The detection and spatial localization of partial discharges utilizes UHF (Ultra High Frequency) electromagnetic signal measurement. The UHF partial discharge detection method, also referred as UHF PD, is one of the most advanced techniques for the accurate spatial localization of the signal source position. The focus of the thesis lies in the development of technical and software solutions for the separation of partial discharge signals originating from the internal space of the transformer and the spurious signals from the connection lines. The proposed technical and program solutions constitute a signal discriminatory method. The precise and repeatable diagnostics of the transformer state are guaranteed by observing the measurement methodology and special setting of the diagnostic system. The functionality of the signal discriminatory method was verified during real measurement of the oil-cooled power transformers at the Dukovany nuclear power plant in operation. The output of the designed methodology is to set up a calibration procedure and follow-up steps to ensure objective, repeatable, and comparable measurements for the purposes of regular predictive maintenance in transformers.

In Taiwan, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) account for 12.5% of all traumatic injuries. Analyzing the data of deceased patient, 55% of them were caused by TBIs. Since 1974, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) has been generally used as the tool to evaluate the cognitive function of TBIs. This research was aimed at studying the relationship between the survival of TBI patients and the scores of GCS. In study, we included 27,625 eligible cases which were collected from the data bank in 55 hospitals between July 1, 2001 to June 30, 2006, after excluding 6,452 cases, (treated by other hospitals before transferred to our collaborative hospitals) and other 396 cases ( not eligible for our study criteria.). The results showed that the average age of our study population was 41.61 years old with the majority of them being male. And the mortality rate being 3.54%. Analyzing the GCS scores, we found that the average score of eye-opened (E) reaction was 3.63, motor (M) 5.62, verbal reaction (V) 4.45, and the average score of GCS 13.7. Analyzing the patients with GCS scores of 3-12 by means of basic variable examination, we found that a negative correlation was found between the age of study subjects and their CGS scores. We also found that the GCS scores were significantly related to the variables ( the cause of injury, the type of vehicles involved in the traffic accident, suicide, skull bone fracture and intracranial hemorrhage), we also found that the relationship between survival rate and the E. M. V. combination of GCS 13, 12, 11 and 6 was statistically significant. Comparing the preciseness of predicting mortality between the factors of respective E. M. V. and E.M.V. in combination, E+V account for most precise result (0.904), following M+V (0.903), M (0.900), V (0.889), GCS (0.885), E+M (0.877), E (0.863). Further parameters, we also found that (age, eye reaction, motor reaction, verbal reaction, GCS, sex, skull bone fracture and intracranial hemorrhage) had statistical significance in hazard ration and death prediction. In addition we also found that even under the same GCS score, the survival would differed on account that different combination of E. M. V. existed and that the area under ROC curve was more than 0.8 not only in respective E. M. V. reaching but also in E. M. V. combination, which demonstrated significant preciseness using this method. The study emphasizes the effectiveness in predicting outcome after traumatic injuries by the following statistical result with the combination score of eye reaction and verbal reaction being the best prediction on death and motor reaction score being the best single variable to predict the outcome.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major trauma, with profound effects on health, productivity, and social status. As new victims suffer SCI each year, hospital staff must be prepared to recognize and respond to these patients on arrival. While surgical intervention is often necessary, the major theater of SCI treatment remains the intensive care unit (ICU). This chapter describes the process of caring for SCI victims in an ICU setting, beginning with evaluation on arrival and proceeding through treatment and eventual discharge. Emphasis will be placed on well-established techniques used in approaching SCI victims, both diagnostically and therapeutically, with mention given to promising avenues of future clinical research.

Abstract:
Chapter 2 explores how the shift to an unpredictable, urban wage economy left many families unable to care for or make use of “idiotic” relatives who might be only partly productive. Complicating matters, charity policies intended to prevent public dependency—scientific charity programs and efforts to separate diverse poorhouse residents into specialized institutions—increasingly selected pupils who had no home to which they could return. In response to this rapidly increasing and permanent population, asylum directors allied with proto-eugenicists such as Josephine Shaw Lowell to convince lawmakers to fund dedicated custodial asylums for “feeble-minded” people. In these institutions, inmates’ labors no longer led to discharge. Instead, perceived abilities determined every facet of life, from institutional conditions to inmates’ likelihood of dying shortly after arrival, and often in perverse ways. Despite being depicted by superintendents as unemployable in mainstream society, “feeble-minded” women who were institutionally productive were much less likely to be discharged and remained for decades, performing vast amounts of unpaid care work that defrayed much of the costs of these custodial asylums. Nonetheless, for some inmates, their toils offered some meaning and a small measure of control over their lives.

The growth of the cruise industry raises significant challenges for the three pillars of the sustainability agenda: environmental, socio-cultural and economic. These problems compounded by issues of extra-territoriality and conflicts between local authorities and national governments. Venice and Barcelona suffer from overtourism, a problem exacerbated by the arrival of larger and larger cruise ships which discharge thousands of tourists daily into cities already crowded with tourists. Neither city has any control over the number of ships docking. By contrast, the Mayor of Dubrovnik was able to sign an agreement with the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) to cap the number of cruise ships to two per day carrying a total of 5,000 tourists.

Abstract:
Preparation for discharge should begin well before the patient arrives in the recovery room. To ensure a safe and timely discharge, goals must be established for each patient. Elements of a successful discharge include collaboration of team members, use of evidence-based policies and procedures, and adequate patient preparation. Readiness for discharge can be determined by using objective and measureable discharge criteria, taking into consideration the needs of the patient and family. Assessment for discharge readiness should include use of validated discharge criteria or sedation score, postoperative nausea and vomiting evaluation, management of pain, postprocedural/sedation care education, and an understanding of follow-up needs. Adherence to these essential criteria will not only help to ensure a timely and safe discharge but will also improve patient and family satisfaction.

While Serbian chetniks were the first summoned to answer to numerous security challenges, komitajis of the IMRO and Albanian kachaks led by the Kosovo Committee didn’t want to accept new order and new realities so visible in creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and the fact that Macedonia and Kosovo and Metohija became integral part of new South Slav state. While old actors and organizations continued their struggle, new one appeared as well, such as Military or Officers League—secret organizations of Bulgarian officers who were discharged from active duty after Bulgaria as other defeated countries had to drastically reduce its armed forces and abolish conscription. As others they refused to accept new realities and were ready to work in favour of revision of existing order. Balkans also witnessed arrival of thousands of Russian emigrants as well as their former adversaries who fought on the side of the Bolsheviks. Both groups were ready to continue the struggle and immediately upon arrival they started either creating their own paramilitary structures—like communists—either wanted to preserve existing military organizations—like ‘White’ Russians.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the obligations under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) of both emergency physicians and on-call consultants to patients who present to the emergency department with a medical complaint. Whereas emergency physicians, by the nature of their work, cannot avoid being present to treat patients when they arrive, consultants may be reluctant to fulfill their obligation and come to the emergency department to treat an unstable patient who cannot be discharged without their services. Techniques for avoiding and resolving such impasses are discussed, as well as what to do in the case of true intransigence.

Abstract:
Diagnostics and treatment of patients often involve several different clinics. When improving quality and efficiency in health care we therefore need to consider the entire pathway from the patient’s first contact with a health institution until the final discharge from the hospital and rehabilitation after the end of treatment. A system view is needed to consider the stochastic nature of acute patient arrivals, the variety of pathways through the clinics, and the stochastic time needed for diagnostics and treatment. A balancing of the capacity at the different clinics, in order to deliver health care services in due time, to improve the overall productivity or use of capacity, calls for a reallocation of resources. A successful accomplishment of such a process requires a common insight and agreement by the clinics and therefore representatives from the clinics participating in the analytical process. The clinician participation enables elucidation and use of information on organizational behaviour of importance for the daily operations. This type of information does not appear from the registered patient data and implies analytical tools, which are both simple and intuitive and capable of handling and displaying the type and amount of information needed in a trustworthy and consistent way.

Abstract:
On April 19, 2019, one male career Fire Captain, one male career Fire Engineer, and two male career Firefighters received serious injuries as a result of cascading thermal runaway within a 2.16 MWh lithium-ion battery energy storage system (ESS) that led to a deflagration event. The smoke detector in the ESS signaled an alarm condition at approximately 16:55 hours and discharged a total flooding clean agent suppressant (Novec 1230). The injured firefighters were members of a hazardous materials (HAZMAT) team that arrived on the scene at approximately 18:28 hours. The HAZMAT team noted low-lying white clouds of a gas/vapor mixture issuing from the structure and nearby components and drifting through the desert. The team defined a hot zone and made several entries into the hot zone to conduct 360-degree size-ups around the ESS using multi-gas meters, colorimetric tubes, and thermal imaging cameras (TICs). The team detected dangerously elevated levels of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and carbon monoxide (CO) during each entry. The team continued to monitor the ESS and noted the white gas/vapor mixture stopped flowing out of the container at approximately 19:50 hours. The HAZMAT leadership developed an incident action plan with input from a group of senior fire officers and information about the ESS provided by representatives from the companies that owned, designed, and maintained the ESS. The HAZMAT team made a final entry into the hot zone and found that HCN and CO concentrations in the vicinity of the ESS were below an acceptable threshold. In following with the incident action plan, the team opened the door to the ESS at approximately 20:01 hours. A deflagration event was observed by the firefighters outside the hot zone at approximately 20:04 hours. All HAZMAT team members received serious injuries in the deflagration and were quickly transported to nearby hospitals. Note: The lithium-ion battery ESS involved in this incident was commissioned prior to release of a first draft of the current consensus standard on ESS installations, NFPA 855 [1]; the design of the ESS complied with the pertinent codes and standards active at the time of its commissioning.
