Abstract:
AbstractIn the present study, the antagonistic capability of bacterial agents inhabiting the rhizosphere of sugarbeet plants were evaluated against Cercospora beticola Sacc. under laboratory and greenhouse conditions. After preliminary screening using the dual culture method, 14 strains with higher antagonistic capability were selected for further inhibitory assays against C. beticola. Bacterial strains were identified based on the sequence data of the small subunit-rDNA (SSU-rDNA) gene. Based on the SSU sequence data, the identity of bacterial strains were determined as Bacillus (10 strains: RB1, RB2, RB3, RB4, RB5, RB6, RB7, RB8, RB9, RB10), Paenibacillus (two strains: RP1, RP2), Enterobacter (one strain: RE), and Pseudomonas (one strain: RPs). The results obtained in this study showed that in all of the assays (dual culture, volatile and non-volatile metabolites) bacterial antagonists significantly inhibited the growth of C. beticola compared to the control. Bacillus (RB2) showed the highest inhibition rate on C. beticola in all of the assays. Based on the results of the laboratory assays, three bacterial strains RB2 (Bacillus), RPs (Pseudomonas), and RE (Paenibacillus) were selected for greenhouse assays. The experiment was designed based on a completely randomised design (CRD) with the application of antagonists prior to, simultaneously, and after inoculation with C. beticola on sugarbeet leaves. The reduction in disease severity was evaluated seven days after inoculation. The results of greenhouse assays were consistent with the results of laboratory studies. The obtained results showed that bacterial antagonists significantly reduced the disease severity when compared to the control.

Abstract:
The influence of sucrose on the removal of Paraquat (PQT) in synthetic aqueous medium was evaluated by Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Initially, a toxicity test was performed on plates containing paraquat at concentrations of 1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 mg.L-1. Then, they were carried out in batches - agitated batch (RBA) and sequential batch (RBS). Four reactors were submitted, containing medium with 30 mg.L-1 of paraquat, under a reaction time of 144 h, the reactors being RBA-2 and RBS-2 with the addition of 2 gL-1 of sucrose, and without the adding sucrose to the RBA-0 and RBS-0 reactors. In all reactors, paraquat was removed, but in RBS-0, the best mean removal efficiency was obtained (41.1 ± 0.89%). The best values ​​of apparent speed of degradation (k) were found in reactors with sucrose RBA-2 and RBS-2, 0.015 ± 0.002 h-1 and 0.018 ± 0.002 h-1, respectively, indicating that the addition of sucrose influenced the speed removal of paraquat. It was also verified that the pollutant was not completely removed by adsorption to fungal biomass, which microorganisms predominated in the medium at the end of the treatment, demonstrating their role in the paraquat bioremediation process. Therefore, the addition of sucrose influenced the removal speed of the PQT and COD, but not the removal efficiency.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is a betaretrovirus that infects rodent cells and uses mouse transferrin receptor 1 for cell entry. To characterize the interaction of MMTV with its receptor, we aligned the MMTV envelope surface (SU) protein with that of Friend murine leukemia virus (F-MLV) and identified a putative receptor-binding domain (RBD) that included a receptor binding sequence (RBS) of five amino acids and a heparin-binding domain (HBD). Mutation of the HBD reduced virus infectivity, and soluble heparan sulfate blocked infection of cells by wild-type pseudovirus. Interestingly, some but not all MMTV-like elements found in primary and cultured human breast cancer cell lines, termed h-MTVs, had sequence alterations in the putative RBS. Single substitution of one of the amino acids found in an h-MTV RBS variant in the RBD of MMTV, Phe40 to Ser, did not alter species tropism but abolished both virus binding to cells and infectivity. Neutralizing anti-SU monoclonal antibodies also recognized a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein that contained the five-amino-acid RBS region from MMTV. The critical Phe40 residue is located on a surface of the MMTV RBD model that is distant from and may be structurally more rigid than the region of F-MLV RBD that contains its critical binding site residues. This suggests that, in contrast to other murine retroviruses, binding to its receptor may result in few or no changes in MMTV envelope protein conformation.

Abstract:
In this article, a novel passive control system, ribbed bracing system (RBS), has been proposed to deal with the buckling problem. RBS is a bracing system with a simple mechanism that can be installed in braces as a supplemental part. The behavior of RBS is similar to that of conventional braces under tensile loading. However, under compressive force, it endures an insignificant force and prevents the braces from buckling through length reduction. In addition, seismic damage is concentrated in the bracing system of the structures equipped with RBS, decreasing the dissipated hysteretic energy in other structural members. There are two different mechanisms for RBS: 1) completely-closed RBS (CC-RBS) and 2) self-centering RBS (SC-RBS). The concept and mechanics of RBS have been verified by the results obtained from cyclic testing and numerical analysis of RBS specimens. In this research, after describing the mechanical configuration of RBS, nonlinear time history analysis has been conducted on 3-story and 6-story concentrically braced frames subjected to different seismic intensity levels, design basis earthquakes (DBE), and maximum considered earthquakes (MCE). The analyses have been performed on different types of bracing systems as follows: SC-RBS, CC-RBS, and Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB). The results show that SC-RBS frames have negligible residual story drifts, and maximum displacement in CC-RBS is slightly lower than that of BRB. Additionally, distribution of input energy into the structure was considered and showed that RBS frames demonstrate a high hysteretic energy dissipation, which results in lower demands in other structural elements.

Abstract:
The study was carried out to determine and compare the toxicological effects of raw jack beans (RJB), bambara groundnuts (RBG) and benne seeds (RBS) on organs of cockerels (Goldmine strain).Full fat soya was replaced with RJB, RBG and RBS at 25% and 50% levels, respectively. One hundred and forty (140) cockerels were randomly distributed into seven dietary groups in an eight week feeding trial. Antinutritional factors such as canavanine, haemagglutinin, trypsin inhibitor, tannin and phytate contents were analyzed in the plant seeds. At the end of eighth week, the birds were killed by cervical dislocation while the internal organs were quickly dissected out. The liver, kidney, pancreas and testis were thereafter preserved in 10% formalin solution. The tissues of the organs were trimmed, fixed in Bouin’s fixative for 24h, embedded in wax, sectioned at 6µm with microtome and finally stained with haematoxylin and eosin for histopathological examination. The livers of the birds fed 25% RJB and 50% RJB showed extensive multifocal and lymphocytic infiltration with necrosis of hepatocytes. Moreover, the pancreas of birds fed RBG and RJB based diets showed necrosis of glandular cells, lymphoid aggregates, thickening of the supporting stroma and multifocal interstitial lymphocytic infiltration. In the testes of birds fed 25% RJB and 50% RJB, there was extensive degeneration of the seminiferous tubular epithelia cells with widespread interstitial lymphocytic infiltrations of the stroma. The liver, pancreas, kidney and testes of birds fed RBS showed moderate lesions. It is concluded in this study that RJB showed more toxicity than RBG and RBS with respect to lesions in the organs, thus depicting a severe negative effect when fed to cockerels. There is therefore the need to detoxify the raw plant seeds with a view to enhancing their nutritive value in diets of cockerels.Bang. J. Anim. Sci. 2016. 45 (2): 18-23

Abstract:
Reduced Beam Section (RBS) moment connections are developed for Special Moment Resisting Frames (SMRF). According to the beam web attachment the column flange RBS connections are classified into Reduced Beam Section with Bolted web connections (RBS-B), and the Reduced Beam Section with Welded web connections (RBS-W). Beam flanges are welded to the column. Regardless of different web attachment details in RBS-B and RBS-W connections current design procedures (FEMA 350) assumes that they could develop plastic moment of the beam gross section. In current design procedures, RBS-B connections should provide the sufficient strength that can reach the plastic moment capacity of the connected beam. However, some experimental researches reported that the beams in RBS-B connections fractured before the connection reached its plastic moment capacity. Such undesirable fracture shows that RBS-B connections have less strength than RBS-W connections. And if RBS-B connections designed in current design procedures, it might fail in a brittle manner and not satisfy SMRF due to undesirable fracture. Thus, this study develops a new set of equations for accurately computing the moment strength of RBS-B connections. The proposed strength equation accurately predicts connection moment capacity for RBS-B connections.

Abstract:
This paper presents a numerical study of reduced beam section (RBS) beams with vertical and horizontal stiffeners. For RBS beams, it is speculated that strength deterioration will be caused by lateral buckling and local buckling. Supplemental lateral bracing (SLB) can prevent lateral buckling but not prevent local buckling in the RBS portion. In the previous research, the effect of vertical or horizontal stiffeners in RBS portion was shown to restrain local buckling of the RBS portion. But RBS with vertical stiffeners causes stress concentration at flange, and strength of RBS with horizontal stiffeners is lower than RBS with vertical stiffeners. In this paper, various patterns of placing stiffeners at the RBS portion are presented. The effect of vertical stiffeners and horizontal stiffeners arranged at the RBS portion is discussed based on length. It is confirmed that, without placing supplemental lateral bracing (SLB), vertical and horizontal stiffeners can delay the occurrence of local buckling and prevent stress concentration. Moreover, the strength can be sustained above 0.8Mp.

Abstract:
A moment connection that includes a wide flange beam with trimmed flanges is commonly known as a Reduced Beam Section (RBS) connection. Accurate analysis of frames incorporating RBS beams requires knowledge of the elastic stiffness matrix of RBS beams. In lieu of using this stiffness matrix, an RBS beam can be modeled as an Euler-Bernoulli frame element with rotational springs at each end, which can be easily implemented in structural analysis software. This paper presents the derivation of the formula for the spring constants of an RBS beam and validates it. From a study of the spring constants for a plethora of RBS beams, it was found that a strong linear relationship exists between the minimum plastic section modulus of RBS beams and their spring constants. This paper has direct applicability to the practical and accurate determination of the elastic drift of a moment frame with RBS connections.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Twelve populations of Escherichia coli B all lostd-ribose catabolic function during 2,000 generations of evolution in glucose minimal medium. We sought to identify the population genetic processes and molecular genetic events that caused these rapid and parallel losses. Seven independent Rbs−mutants were isolated, and their competitive fitnesses were measured relative to that of their Rbs+ progenitor. These Rbs− mutants were all about 1 to 2% more fit than the progenitor. A fluctuation test revealed an unusually high rate, about 5 × 10−5 per cell generation, of mutation from Rbs+ to Rbs−, which contributed to rapid fixation. At the molecular level, the loss of ribose catabolic function involved the deletion of part or all of the ribose operon (rbs genes). The physical extent of the deletion varied between mutants, but each deletion was associated with an IS150 element located immediately upstream of therbs operon. The deletions apparently involved transposition into various locations within the rbs operon; recombination between the new IS150 copy and the one upstream of therbs operon then led to the deletion of the intervening sequence. To confirm that the beneficial fitness effect was caused by deletion of the rbs operon (and not some undetected mutation elsewhere), we used P1 transduction to restore the functionalrbs operon to two Rbs− mutants, and we constructed another Rbs− strain by gene replacement with a deletion not involving IS150. All three of these new constructs confirmed that Rbs− mutants have a competitive advantage relative to their Rbs+ counterparts in glucose minimal medium. The rapid and parallel evolutionary losses of ribose catabolic function thus involved both (i) an unusually high mutation rate, such that Rbs− mutants appeared repeatedly in all populations, and (ii) a selective advantage in glucose minimal medium that drove these mutants to fixation.

Abstract:
A medida da rugosidade de uma superfície costuma produzir resultados que dependem da metodologia empregada. A microscopia eletrônica de varredura, SEM, a microscopia de força atômica, AFM e a perfilometria são algumas das técnicas costumeiramente empregadas na caracterização de superfícies rugosas. Esse trabalho explora a e desenvolve o uso da espectrometria de retroespalhamento Rutherford, RBS, para medir e quantificar a rugosidade de uma superfície. Quatro diferentes amostras com rugosidade periódica e controlada (duas retangulares e duas senoidais) com razão de aspecto suficientemente grande que produzam efeitos mensuráveis por RBS, foram produzidas por interferometria óptica. Os espectros RBS experimentais foram convertidos em rugosidade rms e comparados com resultados de SEM e AFM. Medir rugosidade através de RBS permite inspecionar uma área (da ordem de alguns mm2) e profundidades muito maiores que as acessíveis por AFM, apesar de ainda limitados pela resolução em energia intrínseca da metodologia RBS.
Measuring the roughness of a surface use to produce results which depend on the employed methodology. Scanning Electronic Microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy, profilometry, are some of the techniques used to characterize surface roughness. This work explores and develops the use of Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry to measure and quantify the roughness of a surface. Four different samples with controlled and periodic surface profiles (two rectangular waved, and two sinusoidal), with enough aspect ratio to, give measurable effects in an RBS analysis, were produced by optical interferometry to test and verify the proposed methodology. The experimental RBS spectra were converted into rms roughness and compared to SEM and AFM measurements. Measuring roughness by RBS enables one to inspect a much bigger area (of the order of some mm2) and with more depth resolution, than by using an AFM, yet still limited by the experimental intrinsic energy resolution of the RBS methodology.

Abstract:
Radio base stations contain equipment which enables the use of cell phones all around the world. ERICSSON is developing these stations and everything connected to the area, such as electronics, software and hardware. In a new project ERICSSON plans to make their hardware modular, to satisfy all their customers around the world even if their preferences differ. The task that was given to us was to develop a modular locking system to the radio base station cabinets.The concept was developed in an integrated working process that focused on a user centered final product. The process included the definition of the problem, preliminary studies of areas which are connected to the problem and a summary of the demands that the customers mediated in a list of requirements. The idea generation generated lots of ideas that later on were developed into different concepts. The concepts were evaluated before the final decision was made together with ERICSSON.The final product is a lifting handle connected to a rod and latch system, which already existed. A new mechanical function was created to make the new handle function with the old system. The locking system is modular and it is possible to choose which way to lock the handle, with a cylinder lock or a padlock. Only one module, the cylinder in the middle, needs to be switched to get the other solution. The other parts are the same; this makes the product modular. The lift handle is an entire new design, developed in the project.

Na última década, o sistema de tratamento de esgotos domésticos por lodos ativados perdeu espaço entre outros processos devido à necessidade de utilização de grandes quantidades de energia. Entretanto, os altos índices de eficiência de remoção de nutrientes o levam a ser o tratamento mais indicado para atender as mais severas exigências da legislação ambiental. Com o objetivo de otimização deste processo, procurando implementar a nitrificação-desnitrificação simultânea (NDS), foram realizados estudos sobre a operação de um reator em bateladas seqüenciais em escala real. Para isto foram executada duas etapas, em condições diferentes de concentração de OD, sendo monitorados seus parâmetros básicos de operação, a fim de verificar a eficiência de remoção de carga orgânica e de nutrientes, e também a velocidade de consumo de oxigênio por meio de respirometria. Na Etapa I, onde foi mantida a concentração de OD abaixo de 0,6 mg/L, a relação A/M, em média, manteve-se em 0,04 kg/kg.d e a carga aplicada média foi de 0,10 kgDQO/m³.d. Nesta etapa, obteve-se as melhores condições operacionais com pH acima de 7,0 e boa sedimentabilidade do lodo. A eficiência de desnitrificação foi satisfatória variando entre 37% e 79%. A remoção de carga orgânica manteve-se entre 86% e 94% e de amônia-N entre 80% e 92% (exceto para um ponto discrepante de 22%). Na Etapa II, onde foi mantida a concentração de OD acima de 0,6 mg/L, a relação A/M em média manteve-se em 0,07 kg/kg.d e a carga aplicada média foi de 0,20 kgDQO/m³.d. Nesta etapa, obteve-se oxidação de amônia-N com eficiências entre 95% e 100%, porém com quantidades de nitrato-N no efluente do RBS variando entre 17 e 41 mg/L. A eficiência de desnitrificação caiu em relação à Etapa I, ficando abaixo de 27%. Houveram problemas como consumo elevado de alcalinidade, levando a baixos valores de pH, prejudicando a decantabilidade do lodo. Da Etapa I para a Etapa II, a velocidade de consumo de oxigênio reduziu-se em torno de 50%, o consumo de alcalinizante dobrou e o consumo de energia aumentou, em média, 6.000 kWh por mês de operação. O controle operacional, com objetivo de atingir a simultaneidade das reações de nitrificação e desnitrificação, se mostrou uma alternativa eficiente na redução dos custos operacionais do reator RBS operado em escala real para tratamento de esgotos domésticos.
In the last decade, the system of wastewater treatment by actived sludge enabled lost space between other processes because of the need of using large quantities of energy. Meanwhile, the high rate of efficiency of removal of nutrients has led it to be the most appropriate treatment to meet the more stringent requirements of environmental legislation. In order to optimize this process, trying to implement simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND), studies were performed on the operation of a reactor in scale sequencing batch mode. To this were implemented two steps, in terms of concentration of different OD, and monitored their basic parameters of operation in order to check the efficiency of removal of organic load and nutrients, and also the rate of oxygen consumption through respirometry. In Stage I, where was kept the DO concentration below 0.6 mg/L, the F/M average has remained at 0.04 kg/kg.d and the applied load average was 0.10 kgDQO / m³.d. At this stage, was obtained from the best operating conditions with a pH above 7.0 and good sediments of sludge. The efficiency of denitrification was satisfactory ranging between 37% and 79%. The removal of organic load has remained between 86% and 94% and ammonium-N between 80% and 92% (except for one point discrepant 22%). In Stage II, where he was kept the DO concentration over 0.6 mg / L, the F/M average has remained at 0.07 kg / kg.d and the applied load average was 0.20 kgDQO/m³.d. At this stage, was achieved oxidation of ammonia-N with efficiencies between 95% and 100%, but with quantities of nitrate-N in the effluent of RBS ranging between 17 and 41 mg / L. The efficiency of denitrification reduced on the Stage I, being between 0% and 27%. There have been problems such as high consumption of alkalinity, leading to low levels of pH, damaging the sludge settling. From Stage I to Stage II, the oxygen uptake rate reduced around 50%, the consumption of lime doubled and energy consumption has increased by an average of 6,000 kWh per month of operation. The operational control in order to achieve the simultaneity of reactions of nitrification and denitrification, was an efficient alternative in reducing the operational costs of SBR for treatment of domestic sewage.

One of the primary scientific challenges still facing the development of commercial nuclear fusion reactors lies at the plasma-material boundary. Plasma temperatures greater than 10 million degrees Celsius (10 keV) require clever magnetic field configurations to confine the plasma near the center of the toroid. However, the materials directly surrounding the plasma, known as the first wall, will be in contact with a cooler plasma, closer to 5 eV, and must be able to withstand intense neutron radiation as well as high heat fluxes. It is still unclear how some proposed first wall materials such as tungsten and molybdenum will behave in environments with these plasmas. Scientists must provide evidence supporting the lifetime, fuel retention capabilities, and neutron resilience of these materials in order to assure their high quality performance inside fusion reactors for many years. As a result, scientists must better understand how plasmas interact with surfaces of materials. This project contributes to this endeavor by studying plasma erosion in real-time using a helicon plasma source and an ion beam analysis technique known as Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) to determine target thickness and composition. Copper coated aluminum targets were subjected to helium plasmas of varying fluxes and ion energies and were analyzed in real-time with RBS to determine the copper layer thickness as a function of time. This analysis will provide the frame work for studying fusion materials such as molybdenum and tungsten in the same way using hydrogenic plasmas. It is expected that the erosion rate will be proportional to the ion flux (a function of plasma density) and the sputtering yield (a function of ion energy), while being inversely proportional to the target density. The goal will be to develop a reliable method to characterize plasma regimes with reproduceable, well-behaved flux profiles and use them to controllably erode samples, while performing real-time RBS analysis of the surface layer.

Abstract:
Nanoestruturas apresentam algumas propriedades que as diferem dos materiais em escalas maiores, o que abre uma série de possibilidades no campo de aplicação. Um ponto importante em nanotecnologia é o desenvolvimento de métodos adequados para a análise e caracterização de nanoestruturas. Este trabalho estuda o uso de Espectrometria por Retroespalhamento Rutherford (RBS) para a análise e caracterização de micro e nanoestruturas de Cu fabricadas utilizando membranas poliméricas Nuclepore® como moldes. As estruturas foram obtidas através do preenchimento dos poros dessas membranas com Cu por eletrodeposição, crescidas sobre um filme fino de Au com espessuras entre 5nm e 500nm depositado em um lado das membranas por Deposição Física em vácuo (PVD) e reforçado por um substrato espesso de Cu com cerca de 10um depositado sobre o filme de Au. Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (SEM) e Espectrometria de Retroespalhamento Rutherford (RBS) foram usadas para caracterizar as amostras. Analisando as amostras com micro e nanocilindros, a mudança do espectro RBS como uma função do ângulo de inclinação da amostra foi estudada usando a abordagem de Metzner et al (2007) generalizada para estruturas 3D em simulações numéricas. O diâmetro das micro e nanoestruturas variam entre 50 e 400nm, enquanto seus comprimentos variam entre 1 e 5um. As análises por SEM forneceram o perfil morfológico local dessas estruturas e estimativas para suas dimensões geométricas. As análises RBS forneceram informações sobre o perfil médio das estruturas provenientes de uma região mais extensa da amostra.
Nanostructured materials have properties that make these materials different from their counterpart in higher scale that opens many novel possibilities and technical applications. One of the main issues in nanotechnology is to develop suitable methods for the analysis and characterization of nanostructures. This works studies the use of Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry for the analysis of micro and nano copper structures, grown in polycarbonate Nuclepore® membrane templates. The test structures were made by filling the pores of the membranes with copper by electrodeposition grown on top of a thin, 5nm to 500nm gold film, deposited on one side of the membrane by Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) reinforced by a 10um thick copper substrate deposited on top of the gold film. Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM) and Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS) were used to characterize the samples. Analyzing the samples with micro and nano cylinders, the change of the RBS spectra as a function of the sample tilt angle, was studied using the approach of Metzner et al (1997) generalized to 3D structures by numerical simulations. Cylinder diameters varied from 50nm to 400nm, while their length varied from 1 to 5um. SEM analysis gives local morphological profile and an estimate for geometrical dimensions. RBS analysis provides large areal information about average geometric parameters of the analyzed structures.

Abstract:
Abstract Emergency Borating System has been widely used in the new third generation nuclear power plant in the world. HL1000 nuclear power plant is equipped with the Emergency Borating System (RBS) as an engineered safety facility, which provides the reactor the high pressure safety boron injection and long-term boration functions to ensure the core in subcritical. Firstly, the main functional requirements of RBS system of new third generation nuclear power plants in the world are introduced. Then, according to the two functional requirements for RBS of HL1000 nuclear power plant, reactivity control and confinements, the design criteria for RBS are determined. Based on these design criteria, the methodologies for RBS capacity demonstration are developed by the multi status point method. The relevant capacity parameters of RBS, including the maximum and minimum injection flow of RBS and the minimum volume requirements of boric acid tank are calculated separately.

Abstract:
Red-black relaxation in classical planning allows to interpolate between delete-relaxed and real planning. Yet the traditional use of relaxations to generate heuristics restricts relaxation usage to tractable fragments. How to actually tap into the red-black relaxation's interpolation power? Prior work has devised red-black state space search (RBS) for intractable red-black planning, and has explored two uses: proving unsolvability, generating seed plans for plan repair. Here, we explore the generation of plans directly through RBS. We design two enhancements to this end: (A) use a known tractable fragment where possible, use RBS for the intractable parts; (B) check RBS state transitions for realizability, spawn relaxation refinements where the check fails. We show the potential merits of both techniques on IPC benchmarks.

Full text
Abstract:
Non-linearity effects in rolling element bearings may arise from the Hertzian contact force deformation relationship, the presence of clearance between the rolling elements and the bearing races, and the bearing to housing clearance. Assuming zero bearing to housing clearance and ignoring rolling element centrifugal load effects, it has been shown in earlier work that Rotor Bearing Systems (RBSs) with deep groove ball bearings can give rise to non-linear behavior such as chaotic motion and jump. This paper extends the bearing model to include rolling element centrifugal load, angular contacts and axial dynamics. The effect of more sophisticated bearing models is illustrated in both a rigidly supported rigid RBS and a flexibly supported flexible RBS, the latter being a model of a test rig designed to simulate an aircraft mounted accessory drive unit. Results are presented on the effect of bearing preload on the unbalance response up to a speed of 18,000 rpm.

Abstract:
Current trends for advanced automotive engines focusing on downsizing, better fuel efficiency and lower emissions have led to several changes in turbocharger bearing systems design and technology. Automotive turbochargers run faster and use engine oils with very low viscosity under high oil inlet temperature and low feed pressure. The development of high performing bearing systems, marrying innovation with reliability, is a persistent challenge. This paper shows progress on the nonlinear dynamic behavior modeling of rotor-radial bearing system (RBS) incorporating two oil films in series: a hydrodynamic one with a squeeze film damper commonly used in turbochargers. The developed fluid bearing code predicts bearing rotational speed (in case of fully floating design), operating inner and outer bearing film clearances, effective oil viscosity taking into account its shear effect, and hydrostatic load. A rotordynamics code uses this input to predict the nonlinear lateral dynamic response of the rotor-bearing system. The model predictions are validated with test data acquired on a high speed turbocharger RBS of 6.0 mm journal diameter running up to 250,000 rpm (maximum speed), 5W30 oil type, 150 °C oil inlet temperature, and 4 bar oil feed pressure. The tests are conducted at a rotordynamics technology laboratory using a high performance data acquisition system. Turbochargers with four combinations of inner and outer RBS clearances are tested. Prediction and measured synchronous response and total motion are in good agreement. Both demonstrate the nonlinear character of RBS behavior including several subsynchronous frequencies components across the operating speed range. The non linear predictive model aids the development of high performance and optimized turbocharger RBS with faster development cycle times and increased reliability.

Abstract:
There are many standards, recommended practices (RP) and guidelines available for subsea pipe-line integrity management (PIM). In all of these, inspection is a key part of managing the integrity of subsea pipelines. However, detailed coverage of risk-based inspection (RBI) and detailed inspection planning is limited in these standards, RPs and guidelines; optimization of inspection and inspection frequency is generally determined at operator's discretion unless strictly regulated by authorities. Thus, there is a need to identify operator best practices and attempt to define a unified decision-making process to optimize inspection and inspection frequencies. This document: � Summarizes the most relevant standards, RPs and guidelines with respect to RBI � Reports the findings from answered questionnaires and interviews with operators, and � Identifies potential paths forward to reach a unified inspection planning best practice

Abstract:
Sustainable Development Goal 2: Zero Hunger (SDG2) remains out of reach. SDG2 progress has slowed over the last few years, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to exacerbate the problem. Improving the leadership, governance and coordination of the three UN Rome-based agencies (RBAs) – the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the World Food Programme (WFP) – is crucial to achieving this objective. Lessons from comparable institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank Group and the World Health Organization may prove vital in realizing SDG2. While there are many actors that will influence progress towards this goal, the RBAs are best placed to lead on this initiative through improved transparency and leadership selection processes; the consolidation of RBA meetings and higher-level dialogue at those events; and enhanced collaboration at the regional, country and global levels.
