Abstract:
AbstractIn the north-western Himalaya, the distribution of modem glaciers and snowlines in the Ladakh and Zanskar Ranges adjacent to the Indus River valley suggests comparable climatic conditions prevail in the two ranges. Similarly, the positions of terminal moraines and reconstructed equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) indicate equivalent magnitudes of Neoglacial and Late Glacial advances in both ranges. However, the terminal positions and reconstructed ELAs from the late Pleistocene maximum advances are at least 400 m lower in the Ladakh Range than in the nearby Zanskar Range. These differences do not appear to reflect either climatic or tectonic controls. Rather, they are caused by an unusual bedrock configuration in the Zanskar Range, where vertical strata of indurated sandstones and conglomerates, and narrow steep-walled canyons cut through them, created a bulwark that effectively precluded significant down-valley advance. Without recognition of this physical impedance to glacial advance, uncritical reconstructions would greatly overestimate the altitude of the ELA in the Zanskar Range.

Abstract:
In order to solve the problems of complicated advanced support process, high labor intensity, affecting the rapid advance of working face and the destruction of roof bolt (cable) by advance single hydraulic prop in ultra kilometer deep mine roadway, the deformation characteristics of roadway surrounding rock is analyzed. Taking the 27304 working face of Wanglou coal mine as the engineering background, numerical simulation, field monitoring, and theoretical calculation were used to analyze the deformation characteristics of roadway surrounding rock within the advanced influence range of 27304 working face. This paper puts forward the active advance support technology scheme, in which grouting anchor cable replaces the existing single hydraulic prop in the advance influence range of the working face in the ultra-kilometer deep mine, and observes and analyzes the deformation and failure characteristics of the surrounding rock of the working face advance roadway. The numerical simulation results show that in the advanced influence range of deep roadway, grouting anchor cable was used to replace the previous single hydraulic prop, and the vertical stress at both ends of the working face decreased by 15 MPa, with a decrease rate of 33.3%; the displacement of roadway roof, floor, and two sides decreased by 10 mm, 55 mm, and 20 mm, with a decrease rate of 40%, 68.75%, and 47.6%, respectively. The field monitoring results show that the roof separation is obviously improved after using grouting anchor cable as the active advance support scheme. It solves the problem of safe and efficient production faced by the ultra-kilometer deep shaft in Wanglou coal mine and provides theoretical and technical support for unmanned double roadway advance support under the condition of safe and efficient mining.

Abstract:
Now a day many illegal activities like crossing borders through forest regions, planting landmines, etc to keep an eye on such activities there is a need for some spying device that can spy on the restricted areas or some forest or territorial region where a human cannot go due to risk. In this paper, we have described such type of spy robot that is ‘long range spy robot with night vision camera’. This system Long Range Spy Robot with Metal Detection is very innovative as this system allows operating a robot irrespective of the distance. To drive the system, the user has to formulate a call to the phone coupled to this robot and once the call is received, the user will have to make use of the keypad to transmit data commands to the robot. The data commands will make the robot either go in forward, then backward, left, or right direction. The system makes use of a night vision-enabled spy vision-enabled help of which the user can view the area captured by this spy camera which will be mounted on this robot. The user will be able to view the area captured by this spy camera not only during the daytime but also during the night. All the areas captured by this spy camera can be viewed in a mobile application or PC.

Abstract:
Two methods of dilemma-zone protection were compared. One was a conventional design with advance detectors at multiple locations. The other was a new design with advance detection at only one location and advance warning flashers on signs, with the legend “Prepare to Stop when Flashing,” which are interconnected to the traffic signal. The flashers are activated at a predetermined time before the onset of yellow. Field studies indicated that the performance of both designs depended on the probability that vehicle speeds are in the speed range of their dilemma-zone protection when the green terminated by gap-out. The primary advantage of the new design was its shorter maximum allowable headway, which greatly reduced the probability of max-out and loss of dilemma-zone protection at higher volumes. However, this advantage is diminished at low volumes by the limited speed range for which it provides dilemma-zone protection. The new design was modified to reduce the effects of this limitation and improve the level of dilemma-zone protection it provides.

Abstract:
The effects of spark advance angle on combustion and emission characteristics of a compressed natural gas engine have been investigated experimentally in this paper. The experimental data was conducted under various excessive air coefficient conditions using an electronic ignition system developed self-dependently. The results show that the peak cylinder pressure and peak rate of pressure rise ascends with the increase of spark advance angle in a certain extent, and their corresponding location are advanced. The CO emission keeps almost the same as the spark advance angle varies in the overall mode range. The HC and NOx emissions ascend with the increase of spark advance angle under the condition that excessive air coefficient is near the theoretical value. Under the lean-burn condition, the HC and NOx emissions are almost the same while the spark advance angle varies.

Abstract:
To solve the problems of the rapid advance of the working face was delayed by complicated working procedure and high labor intensity, and the severe damage of roof bolt (anchor cable) induced by advanced hydraulic support, the deformation characteristics of surrounding rock, and the supporting principle of grouting truss anchor cable were analyzed theoretically by taking the roadway of 3_(down) coal seams 2326# working face in Sanhekou coal mine as the research object; then, the mechanical model of supporting structure of roadway under goaf was established. Based on this model, the optimal supporting scheme was determined, and the active advanced support technology scheme of “advanced grouting truss anchor cable” was proposed to take the place of the existing single pillar. The deformation and failure characteristics of surrounding rock of the working face leading roadway were observed and analyzed on-site. Within the allowable range of reading error, the results showed that the maximum displacement of medium-deep base point and shallow base point of two roadways was 15.2 cm and 10.9 cm, respectively; the pressure value had a more obvious jump increase when the distance between each measuring point and the working face was about 35 m, which means the range is strongly affected by the advance mining, and the area affected by advanced mining was 35 m ahead of the working face. It was observed that the lowest position of roof separation development ranged from 0.71 m to 2.73 m. The separation layer was generally distributed in the range of 0.73 m-2.49 m, and the fracture area was roughly distributed in the range of 0.01 m-0.62 m. Under the condition of overlying goaf, there was a complete stress structure, which can meet the requirements of suspension support.

Abstract:
Abstract The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will collide electrons with hadrons at center-of-mass energies up to 140 GeV (in the case of electron-proton collisions). A 3.8-kilometer electron storage ring is being designed, which will store electrons with a range of energies up to 18 GeV for collisions at one or two interaction points. At energies up to 10 GeV the arcs will be tuned to provide 60 degree phase advance per cell in both planes, whereas at top energy of 18 GeV a 90 degree phase advance per cell will be used, which largely compensates for the horizontal emittance increase with energy. The optics must be matched at three separate energies, and the different phase-advance requirements in both the arc cells and the straight sections make this challenging. Moreover, the spin rotators must fulfill requirements for polarization and spin matching at widely different energies while satisfying technical constraints. In this paper these challenges and proposed solutions are presented and discussed.

This paper describes the design and performance of a flexible data link system for test and training range communications. To support a wide variety of range applications, this data link provides variable length messages, participant store-and-forward relays, remote data stations, three modes of operation - TDMA, polled, and carrier sense, and a transmitreceive range of more than 80 miles. The data link is adaptable to different message rates and sizes to support different types of missions. For example, a high dynamics aircraft mission can be supported by two-way 400 bit messages from 25 aircraft 10 times per second; a tactical armor mission can be supported by two-way 200 bit messages from 500 participants once per second. The data link is designed with packet radio and pseudonoise spread spectrum techniques to combat common range communication problems such as multipath fading, host vehicle obscuration, coexistence, interference, and vehicle dynamics. Data link performance is presented to show the flexibility and adaptability to various range communication requirements.

A typical telemetry system for aircraft flight-testing transmits one or several data streams to the ground for real-time display and analysis, and also records the same stream onboard for later playback. During test operations, only a fraction of the available data is used at any given time for real-time display or analysis. More efficient use of the RF channel could be realized if only the data needed for the current test point is transmitted, rather than the entirety of the data. Intelligent selection of a subset of the data stream can provide large reductions in the required telemetry downlink bandwidth. As one of the Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) On-Board Data Management (OBDM) initiatives, a prototype on-board data selection subsystem is being developed and demonstrated. The demonstration utilizes COTS telemetry workstations to the maximum extent possible and includes “plug-in” data requestor, selection, and server components to implement the added DML functionality. A significant objective of the OBDM/DML project will be to validate RF channel models to help minimize the amount of flight-testing necessary to validate the DML concept. This paper will discuss the OBDM/DML architecture, integration of several custom components with the COTS portions of the ARTM “test bench”, and the current status of the OBDM/DML development and test program.

Flight and weapons test ranges typically include multiple Telemetry Sites (TM Sites) that receive telemetry from platforms being flown on the range. Received telemetry is processed and forwarded by them to a Range Control Center (RCC) which is responsible for flight safety, and for delivering captured best source telemetry to those responsible for the platform being flown. When range equipment or operations are impaired in their ability to receive telemetry or process it correctly, expensive and/or one-of-a-kind platforms may have to be destroyed in flight to maintain safety margins, resulting in substantial monetary loss, valuable data loss, schedule disruption and potential safety concerns. Less severe telemetry disruptions can also result in missing or garbled telemetry data, negatively impacting platform test, analysis and design modification cycles. This paper provides a high level overview of a physics-compliant Range Test System (RTS) built upon Radio Frequency (RF) Channel Simulator technology. The system is useful in verifying range operation with most range equipment configured to function as in an actual mission. The system generates RF signals with appropriate RF link effects associated with range and range rate between the flight platform and multiple telemetry tracking stations. It also emulates flight and RF characteristics of the platform, to include signal parameters, antenna modeling, body shielding and accurate flight parameters. The system is useful for hardware, software, firmware and process testing, regression testing, and fault detection test, as well as range customer assurance, and range personnel training against nominal and worst-case conditions.

Abstract:
The Time-Correlated Single-Photon Counting (TCSPC) technique has emerged as a candidate approach for Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and active depth imaging applications. The work of this Thesis concentrates on the development and investigation of functional TCSPC-based long-range scanning time-of-flight (TOF) depth imaging systems. Although these systems have several different configurations and functions, all can facilitate depth profiling of remote targets at low light levels and with good surface-to-surface depth resolution. Firstly, a Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detector (SNSPD) and an InGaAs/InP Single-Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) module were employed for developing kilometre-range TOF depth imaging systems at wavelengths of ~1550 nm. Secondly, a TOF depth imaging system at a wavelength of 817 nm that incorporated a Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) 32×32 Si-SPAD detector array was developed. This system was used with structured illumination to examine the potential for covert, eye-safe and high-speed depth imaging. In order to improve the light coupling efficiency onto the detectors, the arrayed CMOS Si-SPAD detector chips were integrated with microlens arrays using flip-chip bonding technology. This approach led to the improvement in the fill factor by up to a factor of 15. Thirdly, a multispectral TCSPC-based full-waveform LiDAR system was developed using a tunable broadband pulsed supercontinuum laser source which can provide simultaneous multispectral illumination, at wavelengths of 531, 570, 670 and ~780 nm. The investigated multispectral reflectance data on a tree was used to provide the determination of physiological parameters as a function of the tree depth profile relating to biomass and foliage photosynthetic efficiency. Fourthly, depth images were estimated using spatial correlation techniques in order to reduce the aggregate number of photon required for depth reconstruction with low error. A depth imaging system was characterised and re-configured to reduce the effects of scintillation due to atmospheric turbulence. In addition, depth images were analysed in terms of spatial and depth resolution.

This paper describes the integration effort of ARTM systems into the existing telemetry infrastructure at the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC) at Edwards AFB, California. This paper will also discuss the framework of the ARTM integration effort, which includes defining user requirements, integration approach, management approach, procurement, test and evaluation, and coordination with the ARTM Joint Program Office (JPO). Interoperability with existing equipment and with other ranges will also be discussed. ARTM is a Central Test and Evaluation Investment Program (CTEIP) under the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Undersecretary for Acquisition and Technology whose purpose is to improve the efficiency of spectrum usage. As the ARTM program approaches completion, integration efforts are underway to take advantage of the capabilities developed by the ARTM program. This integration effort brings the Test and Evaluation (T&E) community at Edwards AFB a step closer to realizing solutions to a variety of telemetering challenges including the shrinking frequency spectrum, demand for higher data rates, and the need to maintain the current level of commonality and interoperability between Major Range and Test Facility Bases (MRTFB).

The Joint Services Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) Program at Edwards Air Force Base has been evaluating FQPSK-B for possible upgrades to the existing telemetry equipment. It has been found in the wideband channel sounding experiments sponsored by ARTM that the in-flight fading channel can be modeled as a 3-ray multipath channel[1]. Delay spread for a typical in-flight channel is in the order of 300 nanoseconds. Furthermore, the pre-flight channel is characterized by much more severe multipath, in which the delay spread is in the order of microseconds covering one or more symbols when the FQPSK-B transceiver operates at a rate of millions of symbols per second. This adverse channel condition inevitably causes tremendous distortion in the received signals due to severe inter-symbol interference (ISI) from the multipath. This paper provides an assessment of the potential ability of blind equalization to reduce the FQPSK-B system susceptibility to degradation caused by dynamic frequency selective fading in the aeronautical telemetry environment. In particular, a blind equalizer applique that can be inserted prior to the demodulator without knowledge of the received signal such as carrier frequency, symbol timing and sequence, etc, is proposed. Since it is desired that the equalizer applique operate independently of the carrier frequency and given that the modulation of interest is constant envelope (PCM-FM or FQPSKB), we have selected the constant modulus algorithm (CMA)[2] cost function for implementation. Extensive tests on both simulated and recorded FQPSK-B data transmitted over different ARTM channels have been conducted and the blind equalizer structure has shown substantial improvements, even on the difficult ARTM pre-flight channels. The CMA adapts the equalizer coefficients to minimize the deviation of the output envelope from an arbitrary constant level. This paper depicts the pre-flight and in-flight channel conditions using time and spectral domain measurement. It quantifies the benefit of the blind CMA tapped delay line equalizer. Due to the extensive signal processing requirements associated with the very high sampling rate (100 MHz) of the FQPSK-B system, hardware implementation complexity is very high. Complexity reduction issues regarding the implementation of the CMA using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) will also be presented.

Early in the 1980s White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) began studying the problem of updating the Telemetry Tracking Systems (TTS) used to support test range missions. The information and equipment available at that time indicated that very little technology advancement had occurred in the area of TTS. Because the TTS usually have a long service life, it was imperative that the new or updated systems be as good as the state-of-the-art in todays technology could produce. Because of the lack of technology advancements, it was evident that drastic measures would be required to achieve the objectives of the update effort. These findings resulted in a program called the Advanced Telemetry Tracking System Integration and Development (ATTSID). Its objective was to determine if it was possible to apply advanced computer technology to the solution of servosystem problems characteristic in most TTS. This paper and three related papers, The Advanced Telemetry Tracking Servosystem; An Automated Testing System for a Telemetry Tracking System; and The Microcomputer-based Digital Controller for the Advanced Telemetry Tracking System; document the objectives, design considerations, fabrication and evaluation of a prototype TTS. It utilizes a dedicated computer system to control, compensate the servo position loop, and provide automated testing of the servo and RF receiving systems. This computer system was installed and evaluated in one of the WSMR Transportable Telemetry Acquisition Systems (TTAS) for evaluation and refinement of the system. The results of this program will determine the evolution of TTS and extend the use of computer technology to providing more reliable and accurate telemetry tracking support of test range operations.

Abstract:
To conceive and assess engines with minimum global warming impact and lowest cost of ownership in a variety of emission legislation scenarios, emissions taxation policies, fiscal and Air Traffic Management environments a Techno economic and Environmental Risk Assessment (TERA) model is needed. In the first part of this thesis an approach is presented to estimate the cost of maintenance and the direct operating costs of turbofan engines of equivalent thrust rating, both for long and short range applications. The three advanced types of turbofan engines analysed here are a direct drive three spool with ultra high bypass ratio, a geared turbofan with the same fan as the direct drive engine and a turbofan with counter rotating fans. The baseline engines are a three spool for long range (Trent 772b) and a two spool (CFM56-7b) for short range applications. The comparison with baseline engines shows the gains and losses of these novel cycle engines. The economic model is composed of three modules: a lifing module, an economic module and a risk module. The lifing module estimates the life of the high pressure turbine disk and blades through the analysis of creep and fatigue over a full working cycle of the engine. These two phenomena are usually the most limiting factors to the life of the engine. The output of this module is the amount of hours that the engine can sustain before its first overhaul (called time between overhauls). The value of life calculated by the lifing is then taken as the baseline distribution to calculate the life of other important modules of the engine using the Weibull approach. The Weibull formulation is applied to the life analysis of different parts of the engine in order to estimate the cost of maintenance, the direct operating costs (DOC) and net present cost (NPC) of turbofan engines. The Weibull distribution is often used in the field of life data analysis due to its flexibility—it can mimic the behavior of other statistical distributions such as the normal and the exponential. In the present work five Weibull distributions are used for five important sources of interruption of the working life of the engine: Combustor, Life Limited Parts (LLP), High Pressure Compressor (HPC), General breakdowns and High Pressure Turbine (HPT). The Weibull analysis done in this work shows the impact of the breakdown of different parts of the engine on the NPC and DOC, the importance that each module of the engine has in its life, and how the application of the Weibull theory can help us in the risk assessment of future aero engines. Then the lower of the values of life of all the distributions is taken as time between overhaul (TBO), and used into the economic module calculations. The economic module uses the time between overhaul together with the cost of labour and the cost of the engine (needed to determine the cost of spare parts) to estimate the cost of maintenance of the engine. The direct operating costs (DOC) of the engine are derived as a function of maintenance cost with the cost of taxes on emissions and noise, the cost of fuel, the cost of insurance and the cost of interests paid on the total investment. The DOC of the aircraft include also the cost of cabin and flight crew and the cost of landing, navigational and ground handling fees. With knowledge of the DOC the net present cost (NPC) for both the engine and the aircraft can be estimated over an operational period of about 30 years. The risk model uses the Monte Carlo method with a Gaussian distribution to study the impact of the variations in some parameters on the NPC. Some of the parameters considered in the risk scenarios are fuel price, interest percentage on total investment, inflation, downtime, maintenance labour cost and factors used in the emission and noise taxes. The risk analyses the influence of these variables for ten thousands scenarios and then a cumulative frequency curve is built by the model to understand the frequency of the most probable scenarios. After the conclusion of the analysis of the VITAL engines as they were specified by the Original Engine Manufacturer (OEM) (Roll – Royce, Snecma and MTU), an optimisation work was done in order to try to improve the engines. The optimisation was done using two numerical gradient based techniques Firstly the Sequential Quadratic Programming – NLPQL and secondly the Mixed Integer Optimization – MOST; the objectives of the optimisation were two: minimum fuel burn and minimum direct operating costs. Because the engines were already optimized for minimum fuel burn, the optimization for minimum fuel burn didn’t show any meaningful results; instead the results for minimum DOC showed that the engines can have some improvements. The ability of the three VITAL configurations to meet the future goals of the European Union to reduce noise and gaseous emission has been assessed and has showed that the three engines cannot fully comply with future legislation beyond 2020. In the second part of this thesis three further advanced configurations have been studied to determine whether these are potential solutions to meet the ACARE goals of 2020. For these more advanced aero engines only a performance and gaseous emissions analysis has been done, because it was no possible to do an economic analysis for the new components of these engines. These advanced configurations feature components that have been studied only in laboratories, like the heat exchangers for the ICR, the wave rotor and the constant volume combustor, and for these it has not been done a lifing analysis that is fundamental in order to understand the costs of maintenance, besides in order to do a proper direct operating costs analysis many operational flight hours are needed and none of these engine have reached TRL of 7 and more which is the stage where flight hour tests are conducted. In this thesis a parametric study on three different novel cycles which could be applied to aircraft propulsion is presented: 1. Intercooled recuperative, 2. wave rotor and 3. Constant volume combustion cycle. These three cycles have been applied to a characteristic next generation long range aero engine (geared turbofan) looking for a possible future evolution and searching for benefits on specific thrust fuel consumption and emissions. The parametric study has been applied to Top of Climb conditions, the design point, at Mach number 0.82, ISA deviation of 10 degrees and an altitude of 10686 m and at cruise condition, considering two possible designs: a) Design for constant specific thrust and b) Design for constant TET or the current technology level Both values correspond to the baseline engine. For the intercooled engine also a weight and drag impact on fuel consumption has been done, in order to understand the impact of weight increase on the benefits of the configuration, considering different values of the effectiveness of the heat exchangers, the higher the values the greater is the technical challenge of the engine. After studying the CVC and Wave rotor separately it has been decided to do a parametric study of an aero engine that comprises both configurations: the internal combustion wave rotor (ICWR). The ICWR is a highly unsteady device, but offers significant advantages when combined with gas turbines. Since it is a constant volume combustion device there is a pressure raise during combustion, this will result in having lower SFC and higher thermal efficiency. It is an advanced and quite futuristic, with a technology readiness level (TRL) of 6 or higher only by 2025, so only a preliminary performance study is done, leaving to future studies the task of a more improved analysis.

The Nova HYPERMOD demodulator operates in three modes, the classic pulse-code modulation/frequency modulation (PCM/FM), sometimes known as continuous phase frequency shift keying (CPFSK) mode, shaped offset quadrature phase shift keying (SOQPSK) mode, and continuous phase modulation (CPM) mode. Of interest to this paper is SOQPSK mode which is a waveform similar to the Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) Tier I waveform, Feher’s Quadrature Phase Shift Keying, B version (FQPSK-B) revision (Rev) A1. Also considered is another variant, FQPSK-JR. This paper will outline the cross compatibility and resynchronization speed of these waveforms based upon ARTM-adopted demodulator performance tests. The results of these laboratory tests comparing the HYPERMOD demodulator, the enhanced Tier I demodulator, and the current Tier I reference demodulator, both from RF Networks, will be presented.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 28-31, 1996 / Town and Country Hotel and Convention Center, San Diego, California
At open air test and training ranges, telemetry is beset by two opposing forces. One is the inexorable demand to deliver more information to users who must make decisions in ever shorter time frames. The other is the reduced availability of radio frequency spectrum, driven by its increased economic value to society as a whole. ARTM is planned to assure that test and training programs of the next several decades can meet their data quantity and quality objectives in the faces of these challenges. ARTM expects to improve the efficiency of spectrum usage by changing historical methods of acquiring telemetry data and transmitting it from systems under test to range customers. The program is initiating advances in coding, compression, data channel assignment, and modulation. Due to the strong interactions of these four dimensions, the effort is integrated in a single focused program. In that these are problems which are common throughout the test and training community, ARTM is a tri-service program embodying the DoD's Common Test and Training Range Architecture and Reliance principles in its management and organization. This paper will discuss the driving forces, the initial study areas, the organizational structure, and the program goals.

Abstract:
Women and Power at the French Court, 1483—1563 explores the ways in which a range of women “ as consorts, regents, mistresses, factional power players, attendants at court, or as objects of courtly patronage “ wielded power in order to advance individual, familial, and factional agendas at the early sixteenth-century French court. Spring-boarding from the burgeoning scholarship of gender, the political, and power in early modern Europe, the collection provides a perspective from the French court, from the reigns of Charles VIII to Henri II, a time when the French court was a renowned center of culture and at which women played important roles. Crossdisciplinary in its perspectives, these essays by historians, art and literary scholars investigate the dynamic operations of gendered power in political acts, recognized status as queens and regents, ritualized behaviors such as gift-giving, educational coteries, and through social networking, literary and artistic patronage, female authorship, and epistolary strategies.

Abstract:
The monograph presents the author's view on the legal quality of law from the point of view of the theory of law as the norms of coordinating interests about values. The author gives an assessment of the norms of law as the norms of differentiation and coordination of relations regarding values. The article analyzes what is the driving principle of law: the convergence of state values and human values. The author believes that any attempts to assign priority to certain values without taking into account their real correlation in society are doomed to failure in advance. The attitude of a person to the law is the defining embodiment of legal values as the socio-cultural basis of law. The law regulates the procedure for the realization of interests in relation to values. For a wide range of readers interested in legal issues. It will be useful for students, postgraduates and teachers of law schools.

Abstract:
AbstractSettings are defined by the World Health Organization (1998) as “the place or social context in which people engage in daily activities in which environmental, organizational, and personal factors interact to affect health and well-being.” Such settings range from small-scale home/family to (international) organizations and large cities and thus differ in size, in their degree of formalized organization and their relationships to society.The chapters in Part V review how salutogenesis has been applied to health promotion research and practice in a broad range of settings: organizations in general, schools, higher education, workplace, military settings, neighborhood/communities, cities, and restorative environments. The following synthesis demonstrates that applying salutogenesis to various settings and linking salutogenesis with other models established in these settings has the great potential to generate ideas on how to advance the general salutogenic model.

AbstractGroundwater responses to Earth tides and barometric pressure have long been reported and increasingly used in hydrogeology to advance our understanding of groundwater systems. The response of groundwater to seismic waves has also been used in recent years to study the interaction between earthquakes and fluids in the crust. These methods have gained popularity for monitoring groundwater systems because they are both effective and economical. This chapter reviews the response of groundwater system to Earth tides, barometric pressure, and seismic waves as a continuum of poroelastic responses to oscillatory forcing across a broad range of frequency.

Research papers are the staple of software conferences and journals: papers report the results of research projects and a wide range of empirical experiments. Experience reports and software patterns are two alternative formats to share results and propagate knowledge and best practices. Experience reports relate experience and cautionary tales while software patterns distill experience into a compact form. An XP2021 panel session orchestrated by Steven Fraser – featuring panelists Ademar Aguiar, Casper Lassenius, Mary Lynn Manns, Ken Power, and Rebecca Wirfs-Brock – discussed how “story” formats each have a role to advance the practice of software engineering.

In an attempt to anticipate a future of algorithms, connectivity, and issues of access, an argument to advance a range of theoretical tools that may provide insight as to the immanent qualities of data and connectivity that impact making and learning in the arts is made. Focusing on posthumanism and post-theories constructed to provoke the dynamism of materiality, digital objects are conceptualized to understand new opportunities for contemplating how artists working in 3D modeling and digital fabrication may offer insights into the possibility of making meaning at this moment.

Abstract:
AbstractOver the last decade, the range of robotic applications in the healthcare sector has expanded rapidly. These applications can range from dispensing medication to providing more personalized services to caretakers. However, this kind of robotization is associated with severe ethical and societal implications. To advance the design and acceptability of socially interactive robots it is, therefore, necessary to consider and analyze those concerns. The RoPHa research project aims at supporting care-dependent people to lead more independent life. This chapter examines potential ethical challenges and impacts in elderly care that were discussed during the design of the robotic system in the project. For evaluating the effect of assistive robotics on elderly care in practice, the MEESTAR model was applied. The ethical implications of the proposed applications were mapped to seven moral dimensions, such as autonomy, justice, privacy, etc. Each dimension were examined from three different perspectives (individual, organizational, and societal). All identified ethical implications were graded based on the degree of ethical justifiability. The results include ethically relevant questions regarding the role of the robotic system, its technical implications, economic and distrust barriers, occupational safety, data security as well as the legal and safety responsibilities of all involved parties.

Abstract:
Abstract While the benefits of cloud computing are widely acknowledged, it raises a range of ethical concerns. The extant cloud computing literature reports specific ethical perspectives on focussed topics in this domain, but does not explicitly refer to a specific ethical conception or reference point. This chapter provides an overview of ethics and ethical theories, which can be used to analyse the use of cloud technology and the complex multi-stakeholder structure of the industry. It is critical that cloud providers and users recognise that they effectively shape the morality of the cloud computing context through their interactions with other providers and users, and with the platform itself. Both stakeholder sets must be accountable for the possibilities offered by the technology. While pertinent regulation is continuously evolving, it is unlikely to advance at a similar rapid pace to that of innovation in the cloud computing industry. It is therefore essential that ethics is carefully considered to orient cloud computing towards the good of society.

Abstract:
An Organic chemical called Dopamine belongs to catecholamine and phenethylamine chemical families. A neurotransmitter chemical released by neurons and is one of prime function of Dopamine in the brain. They are essential in communicating messages for all parts of the brain and between the brain and body organs. Body movement is controlled by dopamine. A lack of or an insufficient dopamine generation in part of the brain can lead to Parkinson ’s Disease (PD). It is a one of neurological disorder that affects body movement. It may cause stiffness, trembling in body parts. Detection of low level dopamine is challenging and complex as the low level of dopamine is related to Parkinson’s disease. In this chapter we present an approach towards early detection of this neurological disorder PD by employing CMOS readout circuit which measures and amplifies low level dopamine in the form of electrical signal from brain with help of electrodes.ADC is used to convert amplified analog signal to digital information. Machine learning algorithms are used to predict the disease based on the data received from the readout circuit. Dopamine level is measured in current which ranges from pA to nA. CMOS Amplifiers are used to strengthen the acquired signal in the range of millivolts (mV) with the help of bio amplifiers. For conversion of acquired current in the range of pA to voltage with amplitude of micro voltage (µV) CMOS front called Transimpedance amplifier (TIA) is employed. This chapter provides complete design and analysis of low noise, low power CMOS machine learning based readout circuit for detection and prediction of Parkinson’s disease.

Full text
Abstract:
With moderate or light winds and a clear sky the diurnal heating which occurs near the sea surface can cause a serious reduction in the range of submarine detection, especially on shallow targets. This has usually been called the “afternoon effect", although as will be noticed below the ranges often remain short long after sun down. The heating of surface waters which causes such sharp downward refraction can of course be noted on a bathythermograph record, provided pen vibration does not confuse the upper part of the trace. Unfortunately it is the upper 20 or 30 feet of a bathythermograph curve which in the case of ships moving faster than 12 knots is often somewhat difficult to read with sufficient certainty. Moreover, in planning a days operations it is clearly desirable to know in advance how much reduction in range may be expected from diurnal warming.

Abstract:
This white paper supports an ongoing effort to define a research agenda and catalyze a research community around the OpenSciEd curriculum materials. Rigorous research on these materials is needed in order to answer questions about the equitable design of instructional materials, impacts on student learning, effective and equitable classroom teaching practices, teacher professional development approaches, and models for school adoption that address the diverse needs of historically marginalized students in STEM. Research findings have the potential to advance the knowledge, skills, and practices that will promote key student, teacher, and system outcomes. The research agenda stands to accelerate the research timeline and stimulate a broad range of research projects addressing these critical needs. To support the collaborative development and activation of the research agenda, we outline an initial logic model for OpenSciEd. The logic model can shape research efforts by clarifying intended relationships among (1) the principles, commitments, and key affordances of OpenSciEd; (2) the components of OpenSciEd and how they are implemented and supported in classrooms, schools, districts, and states; and (3) the desired outcomes of OpenSciEd.

Fee, Kyle D. Does Job Quality Affect Occupational Mobility? Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.26509/frbc-cd-20220804.

Full text
Abstract:
Job quality, a well-known topic in workforce development circles, is an underutilized but useful lens with which to examine labor market conditions. The Aspen Institute (2020), a long-time advocate for job quality, defines it as “a range of attributes that drive worker experiences: wages, benefits, scheduling, legal rights, equity and inclusion, opportunity to build skills and advance, supportive work environment, and worker voice.” Given the record number of resignations and available job openings, especially in the lower-paid industry sectors, along with popular labor market narratives around the Great R’s (Resignation, Renegotiation, Reshuffle), I wonder to what extent job quality plays a role in the occupational mobility of workers. Occupational mobility includes all potential outcomes an individual has when holding a job. For instance, in addition to the option of changing to another occupation, an individual can remain in that occupation, become unemployed, or leave the labor force. Occupational mobility metrics are an appealing way to explore labor market conditions because they provide a dynamic perspective, while traditional metrics such as unemployment and labor force participation rates tend to be static observations.

Full text
Abstract:
This report sets out to map the different guidance documents available on how to work most effectively with civil society in the delivery of international aid in ways that deepen democracy and advance the rights of marginalised or excluded groups. It includes a review of guidelines published by other key international development funders and implementors written for their own teams, an overview of guidance provided for DAC members within OECD countries and policy papers on cooperation between the state and CSOs. It looks primarily at documents produced in the last ten years, between 2011 and 2021 and includes those related to cooperation on specific issues (such as drugs policy or human rights, as well as those that deal with specific countries or regions (such as Europe or the MENA region). The majority of documents identified are written by government aid departments (eg USAID, Norad) but there are one or two produced by umbrella civil society organisations (such as Bond) or international legal think tanks (such as ICNL, the International Centre for Not for Profit Law). There was a remarkable consistency between the issues Millican addressed in the different documents although their size and length varied between outline guidance on 2 – 3 pages and a comprehensive (62 page) overview that included definitions of civil society, range of organisations, reasons for collaborating, mechanisms for financing, monitoring and ensuring accountability and challenges in and guidance on the ways in which donors might work with CSOs.
