Abstract:
Fourteen trained male anabolic steroid-using bodybuilders (SBBs) (19-41 years) were recruited for the study. Three-day diet records were obtained from SBBs and analyzed. A resting venous blood sample was drawn, and serum/ plasma was subsequently analyzed for various nutritionally related factors. Results showed that mean dietary energy (4,469 ± 1,406 kcal), protein (252 ± 109 g), and vitamin and mineral intakes of SBBs greatly exceeded U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowances. Dietary cholesterol intake was 2.8 times the recommended levels. Mean serum/plasma nutrient concentrations of SBBs were within normal range. However, individual SBBs had a number of serum/ plasma values outside of the normal or recommended range, the most notable of which was hypercalcemia, which was present in 42% of SBBs. Serum/plasma lipids were such as to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in these subjects.

Abstract:
This paper contributes to the debate concerning the benefits and disadvantages of introducing a European Sovereign Bond-Backed Securitisation (SBBS) to address the need for a common safe asset that would break destabilising bank-sovereign linkages. The analysis focuses on assessing the effectiveness of hedges incurred while making markets in individual euro area sovereign bonds by taking offsetting positions in one or more of the SBBS tranches. Tranche yields are estimated using a simulation approach. This involves the generation of sovereign defaults and allocation of the combined credit risk premium of all the sovereigns, at the end of each day, to the SBBS tranches according to the seniority of claims under the proposed securitisation. Optimal hedging with SBBS is found to reduce risk exposures substantially in normal market conditions. In volatile conditions, hedging is not very effective but leaves dealers exposed to mostly idiosyncratic risks. These remaining risks largely disappear if dealers are diversified in providing liquidity across country-specific secondary markets and SBBS tranches. Hedging each of the long positions in a portfolio of individual sovereigns results in a risk exposure as low as that borne by holding the safest individual sovereign bond (the Bund).

Abstract:
To study the flexural behavior of a composite beam, original single and double bamboo beams (SBBs and DBBs, respectively) and sprayed lightweight composite mortar-original bamboo composite beams (SCBs and DCBs) were designed and subjected to a four-point bending test based on the moisture content of the original bamboo. The failure modes, bearing capacity, and initial flexural rigidity of all of the beams were analyzed. Also, the strengthening effect of the lightweight composite mortar on the flexural behavior was studied. The results showed that a higher moisture content in the bamboo degraded the anti-slip property of the bond interface between the lightweight composite mortar and bamboo. The moisture content of the bamboo should be kept at approximately 20% before spraying. The initial flexural rigidity and bearing capacity of the DBBs were approximately 2.5 times and twice that of the SBBs, respectively. The initial flexural rigidities of the SCBs and DCBs were approximately 3.8 and 5.7 times that of the SBBs and DBBs, respectively. The ultimate load bearing capacity of the composite beams was approximately 1.5 times that of the original bamboo beams. It was shown that the lightweight composite mortar had a remarkable strengthening effect on the flexural behavior of the original bamboo.

Abstract:
Recent particle-in-cell simulations of the stimulated Brillouin backscattering (SBBS) of electromagnetic radiation have shown that even at sub-relativistic intensities (Iλ2 = 1016 Wμm2/cm2) non-drifting solitary waves, “solitons” for short, are easily produced, and remain almost unchanged all along the simulation time, typically for several thousands of optical cycles. They appear in the form of stable local concentrations of electromagnetic radiation trapped inside quasi-neutral density holes. The plasma density inhomogeneity associated with their presence disrupts the resonant SBBS amplification. The cavitation process is accompanied by strong electron and ion heating. The physical characteristics of such solitons are discussed and they are compared with the theoretical predictions of an analytical model for localized solution of the Maxwell equations in warm plasma.

Abstract:
This paper presents a new approach for controlling emotion in symbolic music generation with Monte Carlo Tree Search. We use Monte Carlo Tree Search as a decoding mechanism to steer the probability distribution learned by a language model towards a given emotion. At every step of the decoding process, we use Predictor Upper Confidence for Trees (PUCT) to search for sequences that maximize the average values of emotion and quality as given by an emotion classifier and a discriminator, respectively. We use a language model as PUCT's policy and a combination of the emotion classifier and the discriminator as its value function. To decode the next token in a piece of music, we sample from the distribution of node visits created during the search. We evaluate the quality of the generated samples with respect to human-composed pieces using a set of objective metrics computed directly from the generated samples. We also perform a user study to evaluate how human subjects perceive the generated samples' quality and emotion. We compare PUCT against Stochastic Bi-Objective Beam Search (SBBS) and Conditional Sampling (CS). Results suggest that PUCT outperforms SBBS and CS in almost all metrics of music quality and emotion.

Abstract:
We performed a retrospective analysis of 384 consecutive stereotactic breast biopsies (SBBs) from March 1995 through January 1999 and compared it with our historical breast biopsy experience. Two hundred forty-four patients underwent biopsies for microcalcifications and 135 patients for abnormal mammographic densities. Pathology diagnoses included 302 patients with benign disease, 35 patients with atypical ductal hyperplasia, 4 patients with lobular carcinoma in situ, 29 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ, and 9 patients with invasive breast cancer. These diagnostic rates were compared with our prior needle-localized pathology findings. For the study period, the number of mammograms, open biopsies, and needle-localized biopsies remained stable. The number of SBBs, however, increased progressively in every year. Medicare reimbursement for SBB was $921.19, and for breast biopsy after needle localization, $1566.22. Our study strongly suggests that the availability of SBB has significantly lowered the threshold for recommending biopsy of abnormal mammograms. The increased utilization of SBB almost certainly indicates an increase in the overall cost of breast care. This cost must be balanced against substantial potential benefits of this minimally invasive technique: possible earlier diagnosis of atypical and precancerous lesions, patient reassurance in cases of uncertain mammographic interpretation, and a reduced need for follow-up of indeterminate mammograms.

Abstract:
Background: Sedentary behaviour (SB) can delay hospitalised older adults’ recovery from acute illness and injuries. Currently, there is no synthesis of evidence on SB among hospitalised older people. This scoping review aimed to identify and map existing literature on key aspects of SB among hospitalised older adults, including the prevalence, measurement and intervention strategies for SB and sedentary behaviour bouts (SBBs) as well as healthcare professionals, patients and carers’ perspectives on interventions. Methods and analysis: Several electronic databases were searched between January 2001 and September 2020. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) framework was used to conduct this scoping review. Results: Out of 1824 articles, 21 were included comprising 16 observational studies, 3 randomised controlled trials, 1 comparative study, and 1 phase-1 dose-response study. The sample size ranged from 13 to 393, with all 1435 participants community-dwelling before hospitalisation. Only two studies focused on measuring SB and SBBs as a primary outcome, with others (n = 19) reporting SB and SBB as a sub-set of physical activity (PA). Older adults spent an average of 86.5%/day (20.8 h) sedentary. Most studies (n = 15 out of 21) measured SB and SBB using objective tools. Conclusion: Hospitalised older people spent most of their waking hours sedentary. Studies explicitly focused on SB and SBB are lacking, and the perspectives of patients, carers and healthcare professionals are not clarified. Future hospital-based studies should focus on interventions to reduce SB and SBB, and the perspectives of healthcare professionals, patients and carers’ taken into account.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine the possibilities and challenges facing an archive, Svenskt barnbildarkiv (SBBA), if to publish its material online. Our context for this study is image indexing. Our main questions are: How can SBBA index their pictures for a possible publication on the Internet? Are there any pros or cons in the determination of topics in children’s images, and in that case, which? What search paths are important when indexing children’s pictures, and why are they important? To answer these questions, the thesis is built on a wide study of interdisciplinary literature. But also on SBBA: s own handbook for image “registration”, and on interviews with the persons working at the archive SBBA, in Eskilstuna. If SBBA was to publish its material online, our opinion is that it would be preferable if this process mainly was carried out with the researchers’ perspective in mind. There is a discussion on general, standardized indexing guidelines. We however feel that it is difficult to agree on such general indexing guidelines for specific image material as children’s drawings and paintings. To attract the larger audience, a solution of automatic indexing could be a future path to travel for SBBA. We think that the focus on index image’s motives is not always the most appropriate. There are other aspects of images that can be indexed and provide search paths in image collections, image's history, technology and materials are examples of alternative paths. We believe that a user study would have much to contribute in order to further identify critical search paths.

Abstract:
Os sistemas de aumento, conhecidos como SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation System) fornecem informações de integridade e acurácia em tempo real para seus usuários, utilizando-se das correções diferenciais que são transmitidas pelos satélites geoestacionários e estão disponíveis em algumas regiões do globo terrestre. Fora da sua região de abrangência o sistema ainda não disponibiliza os dados de correção em tempo real. Entretanto, o sinal é transmitido na mesma frequência L1 do GPS, o qual fica disponível aqui no Brasil, e alguns receptores GNSS possuem canais de frequência especifica que captam este sinal, com a perspectiva de que os dados destes satélites melhoram as condições do rastreio, além da melhoria na acurácia das coordenadas. Partindo deste princípio, foi utilizada a observável fase da onda portadora (L1) para inferir sobre a sua contribuição para o posicionamento. Os rastreios foram realizados em diferentes localidades devido à elevação dos satélites SBAS variar em função da latitude e longitude. Contudo, este estudo foi direcionado para os dados dos satélites PRN 138 (WAAS), PRN 120 e 124 (EGNOS), pois foram os únicos visíveis durante todo o rastreio, tendo simultaneidade dos dados entre os receptores base e móvel. Durante a etapa de processamento, o qual foi utilizado o software GNSS Solution, alguns experimentos foram realizados, tais como: 1) Processamento com todas as observáveis L1 dos satélites disponíveis (GPS e SBAS), análise dos desvios-padrão e comparação das coordenadas obtidas com as consideradas verdadeiras; 2) Processamento sem as observáveis L1 dos satélites SBAS, análises e comparações; 3) Retirada gradativa dos satélites GPS e reprocessamento em conjunto (GPS+SBAS) e separadamente (apenas GPS). A finalidade principal desses experimentos foi verificar a potencialidade da observável L1 dos satélites SBAS processadas em conjunto com a observável L1 do GPS, no posicionamento relativo. Análises estatísticas, como tendência e erro médio quadrático (RMS), foram aplicadas para verificar a existência de erros sistemáticos e a acurácia das coordenadas. Os resultados mostram que, especificamente nos locais de rastreio, as observáveis L1 dos satélites SBAS ao serem adicionados ao processamento, combinado com as observáveis L1 dos satélites GPS, não são determinantes para melhoria da acurácia das coordenadas.
The augmentation systems, known as SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation System) provide information for completeness and accuracy in real time to its users, using the differential corrections that are transmitted by geostationary satellites. They are available in specific regions of the globe such as USA, Canada and Europe. Outside their region of coverage the system still does not provide the correction data in real time. However, the signal is transmitted at the same frequency L1 GPS, which is available here in Brazil, and some GNSS receivers have specific frequency channels that capture this signal, with the prospect that the data from these satellites improve the conditions of screening, besides improving the accuracy of the coordinates. With this assumption, we used the observed phase of the carrier wave (L1) to infer its contribution to the placement. The surveys were conducted in various locations due to rising SBAS satellites vary with latitude and longitude. However, this study was directed to the data from the WAAS satellites (PRN 138) and EGNOS (PRN 120 and 124) because they were the only visible throughout the screening taking simultaneity between the base and mobile receivers. During the processing stage, which was used the software GNSS Solution, some experiments were performed, such as: 1) Processing with all the L1 observable from available satellites (GPS and SBAS), analysis of standard deviations and comparison of the coordinates obtained with the true, 2) processing without observable L1 SBAS satellites, analysis and comparisons, 3) gradual withdrawal of the GPS satellites and reprocessing together (GPS + SBAS) and separately (GPS only). The main purpose of these experiments was to investigate the potential of the L1 observable processed SBAS satellites together with GPS L1 observable in the relative positioning. Statistical analysis such as trending and root mean square (RMS) were applied to verify the existence of systematic errors and accuracy of these coordinates. The results show that, specifically at sites of screening, the observables L1 SBAS satellites to be added to the processing, combined with the L1 observable GPS satellites, are not decisive for improving the accuracy of the coordinates.

Abstract:
Le positionnement par satellites est à un point déterminant de son existence. La modernisation des systèmes américain (GPS – Global Positioning System) et russe (GLONASS - GLObal Navigation Satellite System) ainsi que la venue des systèmes européen (Galileo) et chinois (COMPASS) permettront une multitude de nouvelles applications. Ce regroupement de systèmes de positionnement par satellites (GNSS - Global Navigation Satellite System) ainsi que le système d’augmentation du GPS (SBAS - System Based Augmentation System) permettront d’améliorer l’intégrité, la disponibilité, la précision et la vulnérabilité électromagnétique. Afin de profiter au maximum de ces nouveaux signaux, les récepteurs GNSS devront être repensés. L’objectif de ce mémoire consiste à développer un récepteur multifréquence SBAS-GNSS logiciel pour des applications en temps-réel afin de tirer profit de ces nouveaux signaux GNSS. Pour atteindre cet objectif, une architecture de canal BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying) satisfaisant plusieurs signaux GNSS a été implémentée. Ces signaux sont : GPS L1 C/A, GPS L2C, SBAS L1, SBAS L5, GLONASS L1 et GLONASS L2. De plus, ce mémoire se concentre aussi sur l’implémentation d’une solution SBAS complète permettant d’améliorer la précision de la solution de navigation. Le canal générique BPSK réalisé permet de poursuivre à la perfection les signaux GPS L1 C/A, SBAS L1, SBAS L5, GLONASS L1, GLONASS L2, COMPASS B1 et COMPASS B2 couvrant ainsi toute la bande GNSS de 1176 MHz à 1602 MHz. Ce canal BPSK ne dégrade aucunement les performances du récepteur SBAS-GNSS comparativement à un canal GPS L1 C/A. En fait, la précision horizontale est passée de 2,3 m à 1 σ à 1,1 m à 1 σ avec quelques ajustements mineurs. De plus, l’implémentation d’un algorithme de lissage via la porteuse améliore cette précision jusqu’à 0,96 m à 1 σ. Le cercle de probabilité de 50% (CEP) pour cette solution lissée est de 0,62 m et celui de 95% de probabilité (R95) est de 2,21 m. Finalement, l’implémentation de la solution SBAS améliore ces performances à 0,73 m à 1 σ, à un CEP de 0,44 m et à un R95 de 1,4 m. Bref, une amélioration de 70% peut être observée entre les travaux précédents et ceux actuels lorsque l’on en compare les performances à 1 σ. De plus, les nouveaux canaux et algorithmes ont également été testés en dynamique. Une amélioration de 5 % peut être observée sur l’écart-type de l’erreur relative à une solution Real-Time Kinematics (RTK).

Abstract:
Surface layer (S-layer) proteins form 2-dimensional crystalline structures at the cell surface of most eubacteria and all archaea. S-layers are generally composed of a single self-assembling (glyco)protein species and can fulfil a number of roles including shape maintenance, exo-enzyme adhesion, and virulence promotion. Engineered S-layers carrying functional inserts at high density also show potential in nanotechnology. However, there is currently no complete structure at atomic resolution available for any S-layer protein. This work is engaged in the (i) structural elucidation of the SbsB S-layer protein of Geobacillus stearothermophilus by determining the surface location of individual residues. A cross-linking screen was used to analyse 23 cysteine residues, known to be surface accessible in the monomer, with respect to their position within the assembled S-layer. The study was able to distinguish between eight residues that are positioned close to the subunit-subunit interface and 10 residues located at the cell-wall facing inner surface. The assay also confirmed the previous assignment of four residues to the outer ambient-exposed surface. The tolerance of the individual sites to insertion of a short peptide sequence was investigated to (ii) create chimeric S-layer proteins for nanobiotechnological applications and (iii) advance the structural elucidation of SbsB. Insertion mutagenesis at nine of the surface sites led to mutants of conserved tertiary structure, of which six were assembly-positive. The six proteins provide model constructs for the incorporation of functional tags into S-layer arrays for nanobiotechnology application as high-density vaccine carriers. The mutagenesis screen also revealed three mutants of conserved tertiary structure but of assembly-negative phenotype. The potential of forming 3D crystals for X-ray crystallography was tested with one mutant yielding small crystals. In conclusion, my work has advanced the understanding of the molecular structure of S-layer proteins and provided the basis for future structural investigations.

Resumo: As cargas de carbono, tais como grafite, nanotubos de carbono, fulerenos e mais recentemente o grafite tem atraído a atenção de inúmeros pesquisadores, que buscam formas de aproveitar suas excepcionais propriedades elétricas no desenvolvimento de compósitos com potenciais aplicações nas áreas de sensores eletroquímicos, células solares, barreira eletromagnética entre outras. Neste trabalho teve-se como objetivo o desenvolvimento de compósitos baseados em poli(estireno-co-butadieno-co-estireno) ¿ SBS e as cargas de carbono, grafite e grafite. Para tanto, o grafite foi obtido pela oxidação do grafite empregando-se a metodologia de Hummers, seguida de redução por hidrazina. Os compósitos de grafite e "grafite¿ foram preparados por mistura mecânica e por casting de soluções em diferentes solventes na faixa de composição de 0,5 a 10 % em massa de carga. O processamento mecânico resultou em compósitos que apresentaram comportamento mecânico dependente do tipo e quantidade de carga. Porém, esses compósitos apresentaram-se como isolantes elétricos devido a não formação de uma rede de percolação. A matriz de SBS nos compósitos obtidos por casting apresentou morfologia dependente do solvente empregado, o que se deve aos parâmetros de solubilidade dos solventes e dos blocos de poliestireno e polibutadieno do SBS, e a dispersão da carga pela matriz foi mais uniforme do que no caso de compósitos preparados por mistura mecânica, promovendo uma melhora nas propriedades mecânicas e conferindo propriedades de condução elétrica
Abstract: Carbon fillers such as graphite, carbon nanotubes, fullerenes and currently graphene have attracted the attention of many researchers, due to their exceptional and useful electrical properties for the development of composites with potential applications in electrochemical sensors, solar cells, electromagnetic barrier, and so on. The objective of the herewith work is the development of composites made up of poly(styrene-co-butadiene-co-styrene) ¿ SBS and carbon fillers (graphite or graphene). The graphene was obtained by oxidation of the graphite by the Hummers¿ method, followed by hydrazine¿s reduction. The graphite and graphene - based composites were prepared by melt compounding and by solvent casting using different organic solvents in a composition range of 0,5 to 10% in weight of filler. The results showed that the melt compounding produced composites with mechanical properties dependent on the type and amount of filler. Also, these composites behave as electrical insulators due to the absence of percolation thresholds. The morphology of SBS matrix in the composites obtained by solvent casting is determined by the organic solvent, more specifically by the interaction paramenter of solvent and of the polybutadiene and polystyrene blocks of the SBS. The filler dispersion throughout the matrix in the composites obtained by solvent-casting was more uniform than the dispersion level in the composites obtained by melt compounding. Therefore, the first materials showed higher mechanical performance and electrical conducting

Abstract:
A critical element to the successful operation of activated sludge systems is efficient solid liquid separation achieved by bioflocculation. Bioflocculation refers to the process of microbial aggregation to form activated sludge flocs, dependent on the interaction of exocellular polymeric substances (EPS) to form the matrix that holds microbes, other organics and inorganic particles in a flocculent mass. Numerous factors affect bioflocculation; two key parameters are the Solid Retention Time (SRT) and the substrate loading rate. The latter is related to the two basic designs in activated sludge bioreactor configurations: the Plug Flow Reactor (PFR) and the Completely Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR). PFR systems have a high substrate loading rate, whereas CSTRs have a low substrate loading rate. Research has shown that the PFR configurations produce better sludge quality, in terms of settleability and dewaterability, and subsequently better effluent quality than CSTR systems. In this experiment, the effect of SRT and substrate loading rate on activated sludge was investigated using bench scale SBRs. PFR and CSTR configurations were simulated by adjusting the fill period to be shorter or longer respectively. A series of SBRs were operated, each with an operating volume of 6L, to obtain data for PFR (fast feed) versus CSTR (slow feed) configurations at 10 Day, 5 Day and 2 Day SRTs. Effluent quality was monitored by measuring effluent TSS, VSS, total and soluble COD and soluble biopolymers. Sludge quality was monitored for the aerobic phase by measuring total and suspended solids, total and suspended volatile solids, Sludge Volume Index (SVI), Capillary Suction Time (CST) and Zeta Potential. Anaerobic digestibility was measured for the sludge produced in these systems by measuring gas production, similar to estimating biogenic methane potential (BMP) and determining short term odor productions, specifically Total Volatile Organic Sulfur Compounds (TVOSCs). As expected the change in feeding pattern and SRTs affected the effluent and sludge quality during the aerobic operation phase. Effluent quality was found to be better for the fast feed system at all SRTs, with all monitored parameters being of similar or significantly lower concentration than for the slow feed system. In terms of sludge quality, the fast feed system was found to retain more of its biomass in solution, indicating better flocculation and settleability in this system. COD was given a lower rank as an effluent quality indicator, since the 5 Day and 2 Day SRT datasets did not correlate well with other datasets, specifically effluent TSS and biopolymers. The data was included because it is believed that the trends were accurate representations of fast versus slow feed system behavior. The trends were comparable to those of effluent TSS and solution biopolymer datasets. In terms of anaerobic digestion potential, the fast feed sludge exhibited greater volumetric gas production per gram of solid at the 5 and 2 Day SRTs. Gas production was similar for both systems at the 10 Day SRT. Total and Volatile Solid reduction were however found to be higher for the slow feed sludge than for the fast feed. This may indicate higher gas and potential odor production per gram of solid degraded for the fast feed sludge. This theory is supported by the odor analyses, which revealed that the fast feed sludge had a higher TVOSC production at each SRT. This was related to the higher protein content of the sludge, indicated by the effluent biopolymers being much higher in protein content than carbohydrates. Shearing, which is part of the solids handling process at most plants, releases these proteins and makes them bioavailable, allowing them to be oxidized to produce TVOSCs and hence higher odors. In conclusion it was found that the fast feed effluent and sludge quality appeared to be overall better at each SRT simulated; the higher TVOSC content may indicate a problem with solids handling, but research has shown that these can be overcome with the addition of iron. Additionally, both systems, the fast and slow feed systems operated better at longer SRTs, with the fast feed system performing better in all cases. The difference was not completely significant in all cases and this is attributed to being a by-product of operating at the optimal M:D salt ratio. This project has strength in terms of its potential for large scale applications. SRT is the considered the most important design parameter and one of the more complicated parameters to manipulate due to its widespread effect on reactor behavior, specifically sludge and effluent quality. Additionally, the fast feed versus slow feed concept is one that has been gaining significant interest, since bioreactor configuration impacts the effluent and sludge quality. Feed configurations have been investigated more frequently within the past decade. The novel approach taken by this project is that it combines these two parameters, both of which are important to large scale plants, both industrial and municipal.

Abstract:
Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) of polystyrene-polybutadiene-polystyrene (SBS) block copolymers and polystyrene (PS) were prepared using sequential network formation with the polybutadiene (PB) of the SBS crosslinked thermally and the styrene network formed thermally or by ??-radiation. The use of ??-radiation to cure the added PS network at room temperature successfully avoided thermal degradation of the butadiene segments within the SBS which had been observed in earlier studies. Both linear SBS and radial SB4 IPNs were studied to compare the influence of linear or branched block copolymers on the IPN morphology. The molecular morphology was examined using a suite of techniques including thermal analysis (DSC and DMA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and smallangle X-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS). The primary SBS/SB4 network morphology was found to dominate the IPN morphology with the secondary styrene network limited to selectively swelling the PS domains. The linear SBS IPNs displayed a more ordered morphology than the radial SB4 IPNs, and this morphology was investigated in pseudo three-dimensions by sectioning samples in two perpendicular directions. The morphology was found to be consistent with thermally formed systems prepared in previous studies, and contained styrenic domains of 20-50 nm within a continuous butadiene matrix. The weight of evidence suggested that the lamella structure dominated the linear SBS IPNs and a cylindrical structure for the radial SB4 IPNs. Maximum values of tensile strength and elongation at break (20 MPa and 140% respectively) were observed in samples with a styrene cure ??-radiation dose of 200 kGy. The SANS analysis of these polymer systems was expanded to investigate the thermal formation of the added PS network in real time. Time-resolved SANS allowed the development of nanostructures in the bulk samples to be measured, and compared to previous time-independent TEM studies on thin sections. The formation of the styrene network was most noticeably observed in a linear SBS IPN system, in which an increase in long-range order was observed and attributed to movement of styrene monomer into the styrenic domains and sharpening of the phase boundaries between the PS and the PB regions.

Full text
Abstract:
The 2021 Small Business Credit Survey (SBCS) found that 1 in 10 small employer businesses suffered losses from a natural disaster during the prior 12 months. According to the National Centers for Environmental Information, the United States experienced 20 billion-dollar natural disasters in 2021, making it one of the costliest years in recent history. Major events included Hurricane Ida, the historic cold wave in Texas and other southern states, and the destructive wildfire season in the West. To more deeply explore the impact of these and other natural disasters on small businesses, the SBCS includes a module of natural disaster-related questions for affected firms. This fact sheet outlines some of the major findings from the 2021 SBCS for employer firms with respect to natural disaster impact.

Full text
Abstract:
This report presents findings on the experiences of small businesses seeking credit from online lenders, based on data from the 2021 Small Business Credit Survey (SBCS). According to findings, firms that apply to online lenders are more likely to be newer and have fewer employees, lower revenues, and weaker credit scores. In addition, Black- and Hispanic-owned firms are more likely than white- and Asian-owned firms to report that they applied to an online lender. Furthermore, contrary to prior SBCS findings, online-lender applicants were less likely than bank applicants to be approved for the full amount of financing they sought. Generally, online-lender applicants reported lower overall satisfaction with their lenders than did bank applicants. Overall, approved applicants cited fewer challenges with their lender experiences than did applicants that were denied. The only exception was at online lenders, where approved applicants were more likely than denied applicants to cite challenges with high interest rates and unfavorable repayment terms.
