Abstract:

Active containment systems based on the controlled expression of a lethal gene are designed to increase containment of recombinant micro-organisms used for environmental applications. A major drawback in containment is the existence of mutations that generate surviving cells that cease to respond to the toxic effect of the lethal function. In this work the authors have developed for the first time a strategy to reduce the problem of mutations and increase the efficiency of containment based on the combination of two lethal functions acting on different cellular targets of major concern in containment, DNA and RNA, and whose expression is under control of different regulatory signals. To engineer the dual gene containment circuit, two toxin–antitoxin pairs, i.e. the colicin E3–immunity E3 and the EcoRI restriction–modification systems, were combined. The genes encoding the immunity E3 and the EcoRI methyltransferase proteins (antitoxins) were stably inserted into the chromosome of the host cell, whereas the broad-host-range lethal genes encoding the colicin E3 RNase and the EcoRI restriction endonuclease (toxins) were flanking the contained trait in a plasmid. This dual lethal cassette decreased gene transfer frequencies, through killing of the recipient cells, by eight orders of magnitude, which provides experimental evidence that the anticipated containment level due to the combination of single containment systems is generally achieved. Survivors that escaped killing were analysed and the mutational events involved were characterized.

Abstract:

Rectangular dual graph approach to floorplanning is based on the adjacency graph of the modules in a floorplan. If the input adjacency graph contains a cycle of length three which is not a face (complex triangle), a rectangular floorplan does not exist. Thus, complex triangles have to be eliminated before applying any floorplanning algorithm. This paper shows that the weighted complex triangle elimination problem is NP-complete, even when the input graphs are restricted to 1-level containment. For adjacency graph with 0-level containment, the unweighted problem is optimally solvable in O(c1.5 + n) time where c is the number of complex triangles and n is the number of vertices of the input graph.

Abstract:

Double-helical containment is a novel approach to open containment in microgravity (or at microscale). In contrast to axisymmetric containers, there is no length restriction on properly designed double-helical containers. Use of a double helix permits drainage to zero volume, an uncommon feature in microgravity; near-complete drainage is a key feature for any practically useful container. The fact that double-helical containers are open and tubular makes possible a broad range of applications that rely on accessible fluids. The double-helical fluid containment and the stability of such volumes are examined in detail. Helical supports permit filamentary containers of infinite extent, but only double-helical containers are stable down to zero volume. The base case of symmetric supports (separation angle 180°) is considered in terms of symmetric volumes as well as asymmetric helicatenoid volumes. The distinct symmetric and asymmetric cases are then related by perturbing the angle of separation between the supports. The helicatenoid volumes may combine to form a dual helicatenoid volume. The dual helicatenoid is interesting in that it permits multiphase tube-like geometries. Double-helical behaviours such as drainability are found to vanish at a critical separation angle 246.48°. With larger separation angles, double-helical containers behave like single-helical containers (360°), due to the dominance of the longer-span interface. A second shift in behaviour occurs at the limit angle 209.12°, where the regions of stability including the cylinder and the helicatenoids become more connected. The common structures of DNA appear to coincide with the limiting geometry at 209.12°. The most robust double-helical containers are therefore those with separation angles between approximately 210° and 240°. Experimental results roughly verify the volume maximum for near-symmetry, and more importantly verify stability to zero volume.

Abstract:

This paper studied the collision avoidance issue in the formation-containment tracking control of multi-USVs (unmanned surface vehicles) with constrained velocity and driving force. Specifically, based on a dual-layer control framework, it designed a multi-USV formation-containment tracking control strategy that accounts for constrained motion velocity and input driving force and validated the stability of this strategy using the Lyapunov method. Then, by utilizing zeroing control barrier function certificates, it considered collision avoidance among USVs with various roles as well as between each USV and static obstacles. A collision-free multi-USV formation-containment tracking control strategy considering constrained motion velocity and driving force was thus established, and its effectiveness was validated through the proposed simulation.

Abstract:

The first part of the research is dedicated to the relationship between the US and its European allies in the context of “dual decoupling” and “dual containment”. The author explores the redistribution of costs and burdens in the framework of confrontation with Russia and the growing rivalry with China. It is demonstrated that the post-2020 US – EU reset turned out to be declarative to a significant extent and unfavorable for the EU’s chances of real autonomy in the international arena. The second part of the article is focused on the EU geopolitization caused by the escalation in the competition among major powers and the multiple problems in its own development. This process revolves around the revival of the principle of “hard power” in the EU policy, its attempts to acquire subjectivity in the world affairs with reliance on coercive power, manoeuvring, adaptation to the conditions of polycentricity. Geopolitization of the EU leads to a radical review of the long-established notions including interdependence. The conclusion is drawn that the policies of dual decoupling, dual containment and the consequences of the Ukrainian crisis result in negative dynamics in the cost-benefit analysis of Russia’s rivals.

Abstract:

We define concepts of amenability and co-amenability for locally compact quantum groups in the sense of J. Kustermans and S. Vaes. Co-amenability of a lcqg (locally compact quantum group) is proved to be equivalent to a series of statements, all of which imply amenability of the dual lcqg. Further, it is shown that if a lcqg is amenable, then its universal dual lcqg is nuclear. We also define and study amenability and weak containment concepts for representations and corepresentations of lcqg's.

Abstract:

A new fibre-sampling dual-readout calorimeter prototype has been qualified on beam at two facilities (DESY and CERN) using electrons from 1 to 100 GeV. The prototype was designed to almost fully contain electromagnetic showers and a central module (highly granular readout) was equipped with 320 Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) spaced by 2 mm and individually read out. The test beams performed in 2021, allowed to qualify the readout boards used to operate the SiPMs, to define the calibration procedure and to measure the light yield for scintillating and Cherenkov signals produced by the shower development. This paper reports the first results obtained with the highly granular readout and discusses the ongoing R&D to address some open questions concerning the mechanical integration and the scalable readout scheme that will allow to build and operate the next prototype designed for hadronic showers containment.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Active biological containment (ABC) systems have been designed to control at will the survival or death of a bacterial population. These systems are based on the use of a killing gene, e.g., a porin-inducing protein such as the one encoded by the Escherichia coli gef gene, and a regulatory circuit that controls expression of the killing gene in response to the presence or absence of environmental signals. An ABC system for recombinant microorganisms that degrade a model pollutant was designed on the basis of thePseudomonas putida TOL plasmidmeta-cleavage regulatory circuit. The system consists of a fusion of the Pm promoter to lacI, whose expression is controlled by XylS with 3-methylbenzoate, and a fusion of a synthetic Plac promoter to gef. In the presence of the model pollutant, bacterial cells survived and degraded the target compound, whereas in the absence of the aromatic carboxylic acid cell death was induced. The system had two main drawbacks: (i) the slow death of the bacterial cells in soil versus the fast killing rate in liquid cultures in laboratory assays, and (ii) the appearance of mutants, at a rate of about 10−8 per cell and generation, that did not die after the pollutant had been exhausted. We reinforced the ABC system by including it in a Δasd P. putidabackground. A P. putida Δasd mutant is viable only in complex medium supplemented with diaminopimelic acid, methionine, lysine, and threonine. We constructed a P. putida Δasd strain, called MCR7, with a Pm::asd fusion in the host chromosome. This strain was viable in the presence of 3-methylbenzoate because synthesis of the essential metabolites was achieved through XylS-dependent induction. In the P. putida MCR7 strain, an ABC system (Pm::lacI, xylS, Plac::gef) was incorporated into the host chromosome to yield strain MCR8. The number of MCR8 mutants that escaped killing was below our detection limit (<10−9mutants per cell and generation). The MCR8 strain survived and colonized rhizosphere soil with 3-methylbenzoate at a level similar to that of the wild-type strain. However, it disappeared in less than 20 to 25 days in soils without the pollutant, whereas anasd +, biologically contained counterpart such as P. putida CMC4 was still detectable in soils after 100 days.

Abstract:

IN criminal trials, just as a bad character may count against an accused, so a good character may operate in an accused's favour. It was settled by the Court of Appeal in Vye [1993] 1 W.L.R. 471 and by the House of Lords in Aziz [1996] A.C. 41 that any accused who possesses a good character becomes thereby entitled to a mandatory direction (known as a “Vye direction”) in the summing-up. The trial judge is required to instruct jurors that the accused's good character is potentially of dual significance when they come to assess both (1) the credibility of an accused who has testified or who has made admissible, exculpatory pre-trial statements and (2) the likelihood of the accused's having committed the offence(s) charged. But matters do not stop there.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the study of various adaptation modes in the U.S. foreign policy amid changes in the international environment. The author looks into the drivers of American leadership in the first post-Cold War decade and critically assesses how the changes in the international system affected them having brought the current state of the world to the “great power rivalry” mode. As a result, the paper observes, the “dual containment” of China and Russia is effectively becoming the organizing idea of American foreign policy, the conditions under which the U.S. were presented as a role model are being eroded, while American elites continue to strive to keep the United States’ hegemonic position in the international system. The author considers the “adaptive leadership” theory and ways in which it conjugates with the “adaptive behavior” theory of J. Rosenau, arguing that for the moment, the U.S. are undergoing the so called convulsive mode of adaptation. The article further scrutinizes the essence of such adaptation in concrete areas and seeks to answer how adequate the measures adopted by the United States today are for the goals and objectives that they pursue. The author presumes that in the absence of key drivers for the adaptive leadership – the factor of time, renewed national identity, new quality of governance by qualitatively new elites, and new consensus among the elites over the role the U.S. should play in the world, – the United States opts for some sort of “expedited” adaptation. It includes persuasion through ideology, incitement though economic measures, coercion through force, and ultimately exposes U.S. foreign policy more like that of a hegemon and less like that of a leader. The paper argues that in the mid-term perspective, the domestic politics of the United States will be dependent on the formation of the aforementioned renewed leadership drivers, while America’s foreign policy will signal how successful the adaptation processes are.

Abstract:

This paper mainly studies the vulnerability of node combination of two kinds of networks, and verifies whether all networks can use the pinning control optimization point selection algorithm. One is the primitive network, in which the nodes correspond to the components in the power grid, and the other is the dual network, in which the nodes are mapped to the nodes of the dual model, It is mapped as an edge, and then the vulnerability of node combination is studied by containment control theory. In the experiment, IEEE57 nodes are used to study the original network, and different combination nodes are used to attack the original network to study the vulnerability. By studying the dual network with IEEE14 nodes, it is found that the eigenvalues of the residual matrix after deleting the control nodes are all zero. Therefore, the dual model of power grid can not use the pinning control theory, and it further shows that not any network can use the pinning control theory to select points.

Abstract:

The class $R_\gamma(A,B)$ for $-1\le B < A\le 1$ and $\gamma> (A- 1)/(1- B)$ consisting of normalised analytic functions in the open unit disc is defined with the help of Convolution technique. It consists of univalent starlike functions for $\gamma\ge 0$. We establish containment property, integral transforms and a sufficient condition for an analytic function to be in $R\gamma(A,B)$. Using the concept of dual spaces we find a convolution condition for a function in this class.

Abstract:

A Data Centre design is based on a network of computing and storage resources that enable the delivery of shared applications and data for 24 hours daily has been chosen in this study. In order to maintain a constant cool temperature and level of moisture, precision air conditioning system are installed since the electrical components produce heat when operating. This containment currently installed beside the racks and make the cool air specifically pass through the equipment. In this study, the effect of fixed size of airflow-trip at three different configurations which involve a single, double and triple airflow-trip has been simulate using ANSYS software. From the results comparison, double airflow-trip configuration produces the best result in term of air flow velocity and temperature inside the containment through outlet as compared to others configuration. Velocity flow distribution also sensitive to the airflow-trip height. Overall, adding the airflow-trip has improved the airflow and temperature distribution.

Abstract:

This article discusses the Eisenhower administration's policy toward Eastern Europe in the years leading up to the 1956 Hungarian revolution. The article first considers the broader context of U.S. Cold War strategy in Eastern Europe, including policies of “economic warfare” and “psychological warfare,” as well as covert operations and military supplies. It then examines U.S. policy toward Hungary, particularly during the events of October-November 1956, when the Eisenhower administration had to decide how to respond to the uprising. The article brings to light the Eisenhower administration's dual policy toward Hungary—a policy that attempted, on the one hand, to strike a negotiated settlement with the Soviet Union, and, on the other hand, to promote instability within the Soviet bloc. An analysis of these contradictory approaches sheds broader light on the dynamics of U.S. foreign policy in the 1950s.

Abstract:

The regulation of host–pathogen interactions during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection remains unresolved. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of the immune system, and so we used a systems biology approach to construct an miRNA regulatory network activated in macrophages during Mtb infection. Our network comprises 77 putative miRNAs that are associated with temporal gene expression signatures in macrophages early after Mtb infection. In this study, we demonstrate a dual role for one of these regulators, miR-155. On the one hand, miR-155 maintains the survival of Mtb-infected macrophages, thereby providing a niche favoring bacterial replication; on the other hand, miR-155 promotes the survival and function of Mtb-specific T cells, enabling an effective adaptive immune response. MiR-155–induced cell survival is mediated through the SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1)/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway. Thus, dual regulation of the same cell survival pathway in innate and adaptive immune cells leads to vastly different outcomes with respect to bacterial containment.

Abstract:

During his second term in office, President Clinton is finding it difficult to maintain the foundations of the cost-free Pax Americana in the Middle East. Keeping alive the Arab-Israeli peace process necessitates more than just sending diplomatic "fire brigades" to defuse crises and choreographing ceremonies at the White House. A more aggressive Iraq and activist Iran are successfully challenging the U.S. "dual containment" policy, and France and Russia are "meddling" in the Middle East. As a result, the Clinton administration is being forced to devote more time and resources to dealing with the region and to reevaluate its approach, including its failure to stand up to the Netanyahu government.

Abstract:

The radical closure of Gaza serves here as an extreme example of a process of isolation and immiseration of national enemies that is deeply rooted in Israeli ideology and practices of state formation. I use encystation to reveal the dual meaning of the term—that of radical isolation of diseased elements and that of protecting a fetus within a womb—and to show how the two meanings connect with respective Israeli policies toward Palestinians and Jews. I suggest in closing that the Oslo Accords have put in place mechanisms for the future imposition on West Bank Palestinians of the same containment currently afflicting Gaza.*

Abstract:

Abstract: In 1949, a new French publishing house, named Cocorico, launched a brand new collection called "Un petit livre d'or". In fact, it was simply a translation of the American "Little Golden Books" series. These cheap, cheerful and colourful picturebooks for the children of postwar Europe enjoyed immediate success. But the importation into Europe of the concept of "little golden books" had roots far beyond the simple framework of children's publishing and became part of the cultural Cold War," "book diplomacy," and the policy of "containment." All this was orchestrated by a multi-faceted dual national Franco-American, Georges Duplaix, who worked for the CIA.

Abstract:

Zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry because of their relative high strength, neutron transparency, resistance to high neutron-irradiation environment and corrosion resistance. One application for Zirconium alloy Zr-2.5Nb is the vacuum confinement vessel utilised in the cold neutron source of the OPAL research reactor at ANSTO. Having a total length of more the 3 meters, it is made of two sections joined using electron beam welding. The weld and the nearby regions are critical for the performance and integrity of the component and therefore understanding of the residual stresses development within the weld is important in connection to (i) evolution of fine dual phase α/b microstructure and crystallographic texture (ii) and stress-related radiation induced phenomena, such as grain growth, creep and sub-critical crack growth by delayed hydride cracking. The stresses were measured in and around an electron beam weld produced during the development of this component of the OPAL Cold Neutron Source. The effects of a large grain size in the weld were reduced by taking advantage of rotational symmetry and rotating the sample to increase the swept volume. Due to the heat-treatment after welding, the stresses were very low, less than 10% of the yield strength of the material, in both the hoop and axial directions. As a result of phase transformation effects during the welding process the final stresses are compressive in the weld, which reduces the likelihood of fracture or of hydride formation in this region. The highest stresses are in the parent material adjacent to the weld where the toughness is expected to be higher than in the weld material.

Abstract:

During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Vietnamese government has actively implemented various policies to achieve dual objectives: (i) to minimize the loss of life due to the infection; and (ii) to support economic growth. This paper is conducted to examine the effect of the government’s containment and closure policy on the stock market quality in Vietnam. Unlike other papers, we focus exclusively on market quality during the pandemic. We find that the policies appear to positively affect the market quality, except for closing-school policy (negative effect) and international travel (no effect). We argue that the government should sustain the policies until the wide availability of the vaccine to support the stock market quality in the near future.

Abstract:

African countries have been hit by a dual shock of COVID-19 pandemic and global oil crisis, which have caused severe economic and social disruptions. Most studies shed light on the correlates between COVID-19 and the global oil crisis, including their economic impacts on oil producing/exporting countries. However, the objective of this study is to examine the effects of the global oil crisis on the implementation of World Health Organization’s (WHO) healthcare and public health measures to contain COVID-19 in Nigeria. Empirical data from Nigeria was collected and analysed using content analysis based on WHO’s methodology. There was low level of healthcare preparedness and emergency response capacities to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. Public health measures against COVID-19 such as lockdowns and social distancing policies were poorly implemented at the expense of the people without adequate countercyclical stimulus packages and palliatives.

Abstract:

Abstract Context: States face increasing Medicaid expenditures largely as a result of growing dual-eligible populations. In this article we examine self-reported community-based Medicaid participation among Medicare recipients 65 and older in California and Texas, with a particular focus on the older Mexican-origin population. Methods: We use six waves of the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Study of the Elderly (H-EPESE) covering the period from 1993–94 to 2010–11. Findings: The data reveal relatively high Medicaid participation rates by older individuals of Mexican origin, but significant differences between the two states. At baseline, 30% of older Mexican-origin Medicare beneficiaries in California reported receiving Medicaid compared to 41% in Texas. Conclusions: Despite California's more liberal eligibility criteria, community-dwelling Texans were more likely than Californians to report coverage at some point during the 17-year follow-up. Our data, as well as administrative data, reveal that California classifies nearly all of its community-dwelling Medicaid recipients as “full duals,” meaning that they receive full benefits, whereas Texas is more likely to classify similarly poor and disabled individuals as “partial duals,” meaning that they receive less coverage, thereby lowering overall program expenditures. Cost containment strategies that restrict access may be especially consequential for vulnerable Hispanic populations.

Abstract:

Our developments on ceramic composite conductors have experienced about 15 years from the oxyacid-salts oxide proton-based conductors, non-oxide containment salts, the ceria-based composite electrolytes, hybrid proton and oxygen ion conductors and nano-composites. A special emphasis is paid to new functional nano-composites based on hybrid proton and oxygen ion conductors that have demonstrated advanced properties and fuel cell applications, e.g., excellent ionic conductivity of 0.01 to 1 Scm-1 and performances of 200 - 1000 mWcm-2 for temperatures achieved for fuel cells between 400 and 700°C. Some proton and oxygen ion conducting mechanisms in the materials are reviewed and discussed. The hybrid ion conduction and dual electrode reactions and processes create a new generation fuel cell system.

Abstract:

Transplant professionals have the dual responsibility of achieving acceptable clinical outcomes and controlling costs. One approach transplant centers have used to control transplant-related costs has been to decrease patients' length of stay, and thus it has decreased significantly in the last 6 years. This reduction in resource consumption has been accomplished by increased efficiency in providing transplantation services, expanding the number of outpatient services available, and integrating new technologies. Future cost containment measures by payers, especially Medicare, will continue to require that transplant centers manage resources and meet financial objectives while achieving acceptable clinical outcomes. Daclizumab, a new immunosuppressive drug, is used as an example in this article, which assesses its value in helping meet resource management and financial goals.

Abstract:

Numerical simulations are subject to uncertainties due to the imprecise knowledge of physical properties, model parameters, as well as initial and boundary conditions. The assessment of these uncertainties is required for some applications. In the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the reliable prediction of hydrogen distribution and pressure build-up in nuclear reactor containment after a severe reactor accident is a representative application where the assessment of these uncertainties is of essential importance. The inital and boundary conditions that significantly influence the present buoyancy-driven flow are subject to uncertainties. Therefore, the aim is to investigate the propagation of uncertainties in input parameters to the results variables. As a basis for the examination of a representative reactor test containment, the investigations are initially carried out using the Differentially Heated Cavity (DHC) of aspect ratio 4 with Ra=2×109 as a test case from the literature. This allows for gradual method development for guidelines to quantify the uncertainty of natural convection flows in large-scale industrial applications. A dual approach is applied, in which Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is used as reference for the Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) computations. A methodology for the uncertainty quantification in engineering applications with a preceding mesh convergence study and sensitivity analysis is presented. By taking the LES as a reference, the results indicate that URANS is able to predict the underlying mixing process at Ra=2×109 and the variability of the result variables due to parameter uncertainties.

Abstract:

Abstract Mammalian hosts are colonized with commensal microbes in various mucosal and epithelial tissues, including the intestinal tract. In mice, the presence of segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) is required for TH17 differentiation and the development of autoimmune disease. Here we demonstrate that the IL-23 pathway dynamically regulates the abundance of SFB as well as mucosal barrier function in the adult animal. Genetic or pharmacological inactivation of the pathway selectively perturbs abundance of a small group of commensals, including SFB, and results in an impaired mucosal barrier, leading to systemic microbial dissemination. Conversely, microbial dissemination leads to induction of the IL-23 pathway with dual consequences: IL-23 drives IL-22 production to reinforce mucosal barrier function and elicit antimicrobial activities. It also drives the differentiation of TH17 cells in an attempt to combat escaped microbes in the lamina propria and in distal tissues. Thus barrier defects generate a systemic environment that facilitates TH17 development.

Abstract:

Intrusion and malware detection tasks on a host level are a critical part of the overall information security infrastructure of a modern enterprise. While classical host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS) and antivirus (AV) approaches are based on change monitoring of critical files and malware signatures, respectively, some recent research, utilizing relatively vanilla deep learning (DL) methods, has demonstrated promising anomaly-based detection results that already have practical applicability due low false positive rate (FPR). More complex DL methods typically provide better results in natural language processing and image recognition tasks. In this paper, we analyze applicability of more complex dual-flow DL methods, such as long short-term memory fully convolutional network (LSTM-FCN), gated recurrent unit (GRU)-FCN, and several others, for the task specified on the attack-caused Windows OS system calls traces dataset (AWSCTD) and compare it with vanilla single-flow convolutional neural network (CNN) models. The results obtained do not demonstrate any advantages of dual-flow models while processing univariate times series data and introducing unnecessary level of complexity, increasing training, and anomaly detection time, which is crucial in the intrusion containment process. On the other hand, the newly tested AWSCTD-CNN-static (S) single-flow model demonstrated three times better training and testing times, preserving the high detection accuracy.

Abstract:

The article deals with the transformation of Japan’s strategy vis-a-vis China. China and Japan are the most powerful states in East Asia in economic, political and military dimensions. They constitute two poles which shape the regional subsystem of international relations. China’s rise presents a considerable challenge for Japan’s foreign policy alongside with immense opportunity for the state’s development, with Japan’s and China’s positions, as well stability in East Asia resting upon Japan’s strategy towards China. Japan’s China strategy in the aftermath of World War II prior to 2010-2011 can be characterized as engagement with elements of containment. Japan has to a significant degree accommodated China’s rise by facilitating the successful implementation of its grand strategy, seen as the restoration of a great power status that China lost in the 19th century opium wars. The beginning of the 21st century saw a reassessment of Japan’s foreign policy and adopting a proactive stance. There is a divergence of opinion as to Japan’s strategy towards China in 2000s: while a number of scholars believe that there was a shift to balancing, others conclude that no such trend existed and “hedging” would be a more accurate definition, as it enables a state to protect from risks with regional coalitions. The early 2010s have seen Japan’s China strategy increasingly transforming into balancing and containment influenced by Japan’s growing perception of China’s maritime activities in the East China Sea as a threat to its security. However, there is growing possibility of adopting a “dual hedging” strategy, as China is first of all regarded as the key economic partner for Japan’s successful development.

Abstract:

Working remotely at least some of the time has long been seen as promoting a better integration of work and care obligations, even though prepandemic research is mixed as to the extent to which parents benefit emotionally from remote work. We exploit dual social experiments in schooling and work spawned by the COVID-19 pandemic to understand any stress-reducing effects of working from home under different school-closing state policy contexts. The pandemic led to an unprecedented shift to (and subsequent away from) remote and hybrid work but also to the implementation of various containment policies, most notably school closures driving a shift to remote learning that were put into effect to different degrees across U.S. states. Drawing on parents’ data from a U.S. nationally representative panel survey of workers who spent at least some time working from home since the pandemic onset, we use mixed-effects models to examine whether and in what ways cross-state and over-time variations in school closure policies shape any stress-reducing impacts of remote/hybrid work. Results show that when schools were not mandated to close, remote/hybrid work largely reduces parents’—especially mothers’—stress. However, an opposite pattern emerges in the face of closing mandates. These patterns are especially pronounced among white mothers and are not observed among nonparents.

Abstract:

In this work, a novel design of a concentrated photovoltaic system with thermal management using phase change material is analyzed. The novelty lies in utilizing two mono-facial PV cells, installing one on upper side of the receiver to receive non-concentrated sunlight and installing another photovoltaic cell on bottom side to receive concentrated sunlight. An RT47 (melting range of 41-48?C) phase change material enclosed in an Aluminum containment regulates the temperature of the system. Parabolic trough concentrator is used to focus sunlight on the bottom photovoltaic cell with a concentration ratio of 25. A finite volume based coupled thermal, electrical and optical model is developed and the system is analyzed for environmental conditions of Doha, Qatar. Temperature regulation and electrical power output of upper photovoltaic cell and bottom concentrated photovoltaic cell of proposed design are compared to a conventional flat plate system. Analysis is made for one day of each month of a year. It is found that the proposed design maintains the temperature below 85?C for all months of a year. The performance of the proposed system is comparable to the conventional flat plate system and excels it with power production in the range of -4.7% and +21.7%.

Abstract:

In the current historical moment of post-crisis recovery, the real estate sector has a dual role: i) through the construction industry and its impacts on related economic sectors, it is called upon to be an active part of the economic recovery; ii) the enhancement of existing property assets is of primary importance in the containment of greenhouse gases and the achievement of the objectives set by the United Nations [1]. In this context, the various players involved in the real estate market have outlined the importance of being supported by assessment methodologies. That allows to point out not only the opportunities of the investment, but also the risks that may invalidate the initial forecasts, nullifying the success of the initiative. To this end, this research develops a multi-criteria Key Performance Indicator aimed at analyzing the feasibility of real estate initiatives that allows to provide a synthetic scoring on the financial sustainability of each investment and to compare different types of initiatives (e.g. new construction, demolition and reconstruction, renovation, etc.).
