Abstract:

Nato a Lucca nel 1981, Daniele si appassiona al disegno e all'arte già da bambino. Interrotto il cammino scolastico affascinato dalle sottoculture giovanili e dai codici suburbani si é dedicato allo studio ed alla pratica del tatuaggio, mestiere che ha praticato per 20 anni e che gli ha dato l’opportunitá di viaggiare in Europa e nel mondo per assorbire tutti gli stimoli e le ispirazioni possibili. La necessità di ampliare il suo raggio d’azione, esprimere concetti complessi attraverso la sua arte, trovare la strada della descrizione della realtà e dare vita ad un percorso artistico piú completo portano Daniele a calarsi sempre più spesso nei panni del pittore. Partendo dagli acquerelli, dal paesaggio al ritratto, ed approdato infine all'olio, la sua arte è una personale lettura della complessità del mondo.

Abstract:

Questo articolo intende verificare come il personal network generato nello spazio online tramite l'appartenenza ai gruppi social e alle comunità virtuali, rappresenti un contributo e un supporto alla vita relazionale del soggetto nello spazio sociale reale. É stato compiuto uno studio esplorativo dove, attraverso l'analisi di un caso, sono state gettate le basi interpretative per la comprensione del fenomeno delle Social Street, che in future ricerche potranno essere testate su un numero più ampio di casi. Con il metodo del questionario online sono stati coinvolti alcuni iscritti a un gruppo Facebook di una Social Street. Si è trovato che la vita comunitaria online dei soggetti può essere significativamente connessa alla vita offline del gruppo nello spazio sociale urbano condiviso costituito dalla strada, configurando il nostro esempio come comunità ibrida e caso concreto di realtà aumentata.

Abstract:

Precarietà e incertezza sembrano affliggere, nei tempi recenti, la prescrizione del reato, quando la si osservi da una prospettiva sovranazionale o comparata. Sullo sfondo, si pone il problema della tenuta del nostro sistema nel suo complesso, e persino della sua identità, come l’abbiamo concepita e tramandata di generazione in generazione. Con l’ordinanza n. 24 del 2017, la Corte costituzionale, sollevando una nuova questione pregiudiziale, mostra l’intento di non consumare una rottura del dialogo con l’ordinamento UE, limitandosi a paventare il rischio di ricorrere ai controlimiti, senza effettivamente porli in essere. Tuttavia, il provvedimento appare criticabile per alcuni argomenti utilizzati, e per la posizione assunta, che sembra lasciare poco spazio per specificazioni e aggiustamenti alla Corte di giustizia. La decisione, infatti, pur mostrando formalmente apertura a un confronto con la Corte di giustizia, tende a proporre in realtà una divisione tra mondi opposti e inconciliabili: di qua il diritto italiano, con la sua tradizione irrinunciabile; di là quello europeo, al quale formalmente si mostra deferenza (purché non si ingerisca in questioni vitali). Sembra il piano per una sorta di convivenza da separati, che certo ha il pregio di guadagnare tempo. Tuttavia, non si intravvede, nel ragionamento condotto, alcuna strada per raggiungere, o almeno per intraprendere il cammino verso una integrazione reale degli ordinamenti: è questo, in realtà, il nodo che, se non affrontato adesso, tenderà a riproporsi in successive occasioni.

Abstract:

Gli Autori, dopo un breve ricordo storico-antropologico delle primitive società matrilineari, passano in rassegna le principali legislazioni internazionali riguardanti le tecniche di procreazione artificiale, puntando l'attenzione sulle norme circa il riconoscimento di paternità legale al marito o convivente che ha prestato il proprio consenso alla fecondazione artificiale eterologa e circa l'anonimato del donatore di seme. Essi rilevano la contraddizione tra le attuali possibilità della ricerca biologica di paternità che, avvalendosi degli accertamenti genetici basati sull'impiego dei polimorfismi del sangue, consente a chiunque di conoscere il proprio padre biologico, e le norme sull'anonimato che, non consentendo al figlio di conoscere il proprio vero padre, creano notevoli diseguaglianze tra cittadini. La fecondazione artificiale eterologa viene considerata come un altro regresso alla società matrilineare, in cui la struttura protofamiliare era incentrata sulla figura della donna, la quale assumeva un ruolo dominante come strumento di fecondità e il "marito" era "in visita", cosicché padre e figlio erano completamente estranei l'uno all'altro. Viene infine commentata la recente sentenza del Tribunale di Cremona che ha accolto l'istanza di disconoscimento di paternità di un figlio nato a seguito di inseminazione artificiale con sperma eterologo. Il Tribunale, mancando in Italia una legge che regoli la fecondazione artificiale eterologa, ha percorso l'unica strada a disposizione nell'attuale panorama giuridico nazionale, fondando la propria sentenza sugli art t. 231 , 235 c 143 del Codice Civile. L'auspicio è che storie come quelle del piccolo Mattia, oggi "figlio di padre ignoto", inducano tutti a riflettere sui "prodigi" della scienza e del progresso, ma soprattutto non spingano frettolosamente verso leggi che consentano, per la loro permissività, di sconvolgere la reale biologia dell'essere umano.

Abstract:

The trilobite Reedops is documented from strata probably corresponding to the middle part of the Talacasto Formation in the Sierra de las Minitas, at the northernmost extent of the Precordillera in La Rioja Province, northwestern Argentina. The specimens resemble the type species of the genus, R. bronni, indicating a Pragian (Early Devonian) age for the strata, and suggesting the occurrence at this time of faunal exchange between the Old World Realm, particularly the Bohemian area, and the Malvinokaffric Realm. The taxon represents the first Early Devonian macrofaunal element in the Malvinokaffric Realm with global biostratigraphical significance.

Abstract:

AbstractReconstructing the stratigraphic architecture of deposits prior to Cenozoic Himalayan uplift is critical for unravelling the structural, metamorphic, depositional and erosional history of the orogen. The nature and distribution of Proterozoic and lower Paleozoic strata have helped elucidate the relationship between lithotectonic zones, as well as the geometries of major bounding faults. Stratigraphic and geochronological work has revealed a uniform and widespread pattern of Paleoproterozoic strata >1.6 Ga that are unconformably overlain by <1.1 Ga rocks. The overlying Neoproterozoic strata record marine sedimentation, including a Cryogenian diamictite, a well-developed carbonate platform succession and condensed fossiliferous Precambrian–Cambrian boundary strata. Palaeontological study of Cambrian units permits correlation from the Indian craton through three Himalayan lithotectonic zones to a precision of within a few million years. Detailed sedimentological and stratigraphic analysis shows the differentiation of a proximal realm of relatively condensed, nearshore, evaporite-rich units to the south and a distal realm of thick, deltaic deposits to the north. Thus, Neoproterozoic and Cambrian strata blanketed the northern Indian craton with an extensive, northward-deepening, succession. Today, these rocks are absent from parts of the inner Lesser Himalaya, and the uplift and erosion of these proximal facies explains a marked change in global seawater isotopic chemistry at 16 Ma.

Abstract:

Endophyllum is described for the first time from North America. The occurrence of a single, large colony in Middle Devonian strata in New York is both biogeographically and environmentally anomalous: it belongs to an Old World Realm genus but was found in the Eastern Americas Realm, and it occurred in a gray, ambocoeliid-bearing mudstone, a facies in which morphologically complex corals are otherwise unknown. Available evidence suggests that the coral lived not far from where it was found, possibly on a hardground or bank a few km north of the outcrop. Endophyllum ciurcai new species is described.

Abstract:

Two new spine-bearing gastropods, Chlupacispira spinosa n. gen. and sp. and Spinulrichospira cheeneetnukensis n. gen. and sp., are described from the late Early Devonian (Emsian) and early Middle Devonian (Eifelian), respectively, of west-central Alaska. These represent the earliest reported spiny pleurotomariacean gastropods. Otherwise, spinose pleurotomariaceans are known from strata no older than Carboniferous age. Spinulrichospira cheeneetnukensis n. gen. and sp. appears to represent a more highly ornamented derivative of Ulrichospira Donald. Both new genera are part of the more highly ornamented fauna which occurred in warm equatorial waters of the Old World Realm during the Early and Middle Devonian, in contrast to more weakly ornamented shells of the Eastern Americas Realm and even more weakly ornamented (almost totally “plain”) shells of the Malvinokaffric Realm. The latter two realms are thought to represent subtropical to warm temperate and cool temperate to cool polar conditions, respectively.

Abstract:

Con questo lavoro si vuole realizzare un sistema di riconoscimento e tracciamento delle buche stradali in tempo reale. Il lavoro si inserisce in un progetto più ampio che ha lo scopo di riconoscere le buche stradali, al fine di permettere al veicolo di attuare contromisure preventive, per supportare al meglio le sollecitazioni causate dalle buche. Per questo progetto si faranno uso di algoritmi di image-processing per riconoscere e tracciare la buca, sfruttando la differenza di contrasto e luminosità tra l’asfalto e la buca stradale. Verrà proposto un algoritmo che sarà valutato mediante un dataset etichettato con una apposita applicazione realizzata per tale scopo. Per valutare le prestazioni dell’algoritmo è stato definito anche un protocollo per descrivere le etichette che sarà implementato sia nella applicazione di etichettamento sia nella applicazione di valutazione dell’algoritmo. Inoltre verrà fatta una discussione sui diversi problemi ancora aperti, come la gestione di ombre e la presenza di veicoli nell'inquadratura, e sulle possibili strategie o specializzazioni per raffinare l'algoritmo e renderlo più preciso e accurato.

Full text

Abstract:

The present doctoral thesis discusses the ways to improve the performance of driving simulator, provide objective measures for the road safety evaluation methodology based on driver’s behavior and response and investigates the drivers' adaptation to the driving assistant systems. The activities are divided into two macro areas; the driving simulation studies and on-road experiments. During the driving simulation experimentation, the classical motion cueing algorithm with logarithmic scale was implemented in the 2DOF motion cueing simulator and the motion cues were found desirable by the participants. In addition, it found out that motion stimuli could change the behaviour of the drivers in terms of depth/distance perception. During the on-road experimentations, The driver gaze behaviour was investigated to find the objective measures on the visibility of the road signs and reaction time of the drivers. The sensor infusion and the vehicle monitoring instruments were found useful for an objective assessment of the pavement condition and the drivers’ performance. In the last chapter of the thesis, the safety assessment during the use of level 1 automated driving “ACC” is discussed with the simulator and on-road experiment. The drivers’ visual behaviour was investigated in both studies with innovative classification method to find the epochs of the distraction of the drivers. The behavioural adaptation to ACC showed that drivers may divert their attention away from the driving task to engage in secondary, non-driving-related tasks.

Abstract:

Members of the alphavirus genus pose a serious or potential threat to public health in many areas of the world. Nearly all alphaviruses are maintained in nature by transmission cycles that involve alternating replication in a susceptible vertebrate and invertebrate host. The maintenance of this transmission cycle depends on the establishment of a life-long persistent infection in the invertebrate vector host. Although alphavirus replication has been extensively studied in vertebrate models, the strand-specific replication kinetics of alphaviruses during persistent infections of the invertebrate host have not been reported. We investigated the strand-specific replication of different alphavirus genotypes in invertebrate cells.

By comparing different detection strategies and chemistries, we identified an optimal ssqPCR assay design for strand-specific quantification of viral RNAs in infected cells and tissues. We found that primer sets incorporating the use of a non-target tag sequence were able to avoid real-time PCR detection of amplicons that were falsely-primed during reverse-transcription. We also determined that DNA hydrolysis probes increased the sensitivity of ssqPCR assays when compared to a double-stranded DNA-specific dye, SYBR Green.

Using this information, we determined the replication kinetics of two different genotypes of o'nyong nyong virus (ONNV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in infected mosquito cells. We found that (-) strand viral RNAs persisted in invertebrate cells for up to 21 days after infection. We also found that significantly less (-) strand RNA was present in cells infected with opal variants of both ONNV and CHIKV than sense variants at several time points post infection, suggesting that the opal codon has a functional role in (-) strand RNA regulation. We also report the development of an ONNV replicon expression system.

In total, the tools we developed for this report will facilitate future replication studies in the mosquito that may shed light on questions regarding the regulatory role of the opal codon and the persistence of (-) strand RNAs during long-term infections. The strand-specific replication kinetics of ONNV and CHIKV genotypes reported here will serve as a foundation for such investigations.

Vision systems have already proven to be a useful tool in various elds. The ease of their implementation, allied to their low cost mean that their growth potential is immense. In this dissertation it is proposed a approach to measure strains in metallic surfaces, using stereo vision. This approach is based on the 3D DIC. This method measures the strain of the surface by dividing this surface in small sections, called subsets, and iteratively nding the equation that describes its shape variation through time. However, calculating the transformation of this subset is very timeconsuming. The proposed approach tries to optimize this calculation by rst determine the displacement eld, and then the strain eld by derivation. The dissertation also presents some experimental data and practical considerations relatively to the camera setup and image equalization algorithms in order to obtain better disparity maps. The results were veri ed experimentally and compared with the results obtained from other softwares.

Abstract:

Der stetig anwachsende Bedarf und die innovative Weiterentwicklung im Bereich der Großdieselmotoren als Antrieb für Schiffe und Generatoranlagen erfordert ebenfalls die Weiterentwicklung der Abgasturbolader. Hohe Leistungsfähigkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit ist nur durch moderne Fertigungsverfahren und einer optimalen Ausnutzung der eingesetzten, hochwertigen Werkstoffe zu erreichen. Dies gilt insbesondere für die integralen Radialturbinenräder in Abgasturboladern, die aufgrund der hohen Betriebsbelastungen einen zentralen Punkt bei der Auslegung darstellen. Lebensdauerbegrenzend ist die hochzyklische Ermüdung aufgrund Resonanzschwingungen an der Beschaufelung der Turbinenräder. Die vorliegende Arbeit soll die Auslegungsmethodik zur Berechnung und Beurteilung der zu erwartenden Schwingbeanspruchungen der Turbinenräder im Hinblick der realen Geometrie verbessern. Dazu wird ein einfaches Berechnungsmodell zur Identifizierung der kritischen Schaufelmoden und Bestimmung der Schwingbeanspruchungen im integralen Turbinenrad erarbeitet. Das Modell wird auf vorhandene Turbinenräder angewendet und aus den Ergebnissen werden Hinweise für eine systematische Beurteilung der Schaufelmoden, Knotendurchmesser und Schaufelgestaltung bezüglich der kritischen Schwingbeanspruchungen angegeben. Desweiteren wird der Einfluss der Verstimmung (engl. Mistuning) des Schwingverhaltens realer, integraler Turbinenräder ausführlich im Hinblick auf die Schwingbeanspruchungen untersucht. Die wesentlichen Ursachen für die Verstimmung sind die innerhalb der Fertigungstoleranzen auftretenden Geometrieabweichungen der Schaufeln. Dabei wird ein Überblick über die typischen Geometrie- und Frequenzabweichungen Radialturbinen gegeben und Auswirkungen auf das Schwingverhalten des Rades wie Lokalisierung der Schwingformen und Amplitudenüberhöhungen ermittelt und in einen systematischen Zusammenhang mit den geometrischen Ursachen, der Komplexität der Schaufelschwingformen und Knotendurchmesser gestellt. Es zeigt sich, dass unter gewissen Voraussetzungen bei Radialturbinen KD0 und KD1 Schwingformen weniger sensibel auf die Verstimmung reagieren. Hieraus können Hinweise für die Verbesserung des Auslegungsprozess abgeleitet werden. Die Kenntnis über das reale Schwingverhalten verstimmter Turbinenräder ermöglicht die korrekte Auswahl geeigneter Schaufeln zur Applikation von Dehnmessstreifen, wodurch eine sichere Beurteilung der Betriebsbeanspruchungen erst möglich wird.

Listeria monocytogenes is an infectious microorganism causing listeriosis, a foodborne illness affecting immunocompromised, pregnant, elderly and childrens. Pathogenic to men and animals is found naturally in the environment and has the ability to multiply on adverse conditions such as high salinity and chilling temperatures. However, their detection in food is difficult because it is laborious, time consuming and expensive. Therefore comes to searching for methods to detect simple and fast. Immunological methods are very promising in this regard, but the conditions under which the organism is grown should be ideal for maximizing the expression and subsequent detection of the target antigen. Internalin A protein (InlA) of L. monocytogenes is an excellent target for detection of this pathogen in immunological tests, but the ideal conditions to enhance its expression had not yet been described. Therefore thus study analyzed the expression of InlA in two strains of L. monocytogenes serotype 4b, a clínical and other non-clínical, in non selective enrichment broths Luria-Bertani (LB), Brain Heart Infusion (BHI), Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) and selective broths Fraser Broth (FRA), Listeria Enrichment Broth (LEB), Listeria Enrichment Broth - University of Vermont Medium (UVM), to incubation at 29 and 37 °C, through the ELISA and real time RT-PCR. All data were statistically analyzed considering a significance level of 5% (p <0.05). In the ELISA it was found that expression of InlA is strain-specific, in other words, was influenced by the origin of the strain, because the strain non-clínical of L. monocytogenes showed higher InlA expression levels than the clínical strain, and the medium used directly interfere with the expression of this antigen, and the most appropriate medium of enrichment for use in detection methods, regardless of the origin of the strain,was FRA, TSB and LEB. It was also observed that there was no significant difference in the expression of InlA when strains were grown at 29 and 37 °C. The real-time RT-PCR data showed inconclusive, since there was no statistically significant difference between the conditions analyzed, requiring thus more study. In conclusion, it was found that InlA gene expression on influenced by origin of the strain and culture media. Regardless of the origin of the strain, the preferred media for use in InlA protein detection methods are FRA, TSB and LEB
Listeria monocytogenes é um microrganismo infeccioso causador de listeriose, uma doença de origem alimentar que acomete principalmente imunocomprometidos, gestantes, idosos e crianças. Considerado patogênico tanto para homens quanto para animais, está distribuído naturalmente no ambiente e possui a capacidade de multiplicar-se sobre condições adversas, como alta salinidade e temperaturas de refrigeração. Todavia, sua detecção em alimentos é dificultada por ser trabalhosa, demorada e dispendiosa. Por isso, vem-se buscando métodos de detecção mais simples e rápidos. Os métodos imunológicos são muito promissores neste sentido, mas as condições em que o microrganismo é cultivado devem ser ideais para maximizar a expressão e consequente detecção do antígeno alvo. A proteína internalina A (InlA) de L. monocytogenes é um excelente alvo para detecção desse patógeno em testes imunológicos, porém as condições ideais para potencializar sua expressão ainda não foram descritas. Portanto, nesse trabalho analisou-se a expressão de InlA em duas cepas de L.monocytogenes sorotipo 4b, uma de origem clínica e outra não-clínica, nos caldos de enriquecimento não seletivos Luria-Bertani (LB), Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) e Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB), assim como nos caldos seletivos Fraser Broth (FRA), Listeria Enrichment Broth (LEB) e Listeria Enrichment Broth - University of Vermont Medium (UVM), a 29 e 37 °C, utilizando ELISA indireto e RT-PCR em tempo real. Todos os dados obtidos foram submetidos a análises estatísticas considerando um nível de significância de 5% (p<0,05). Através do ELISA indireto verificou-se que a expressão da InlA é cepa-especifica, ou seja, foi influenciada pela origem da cepa, pois a L. monocytogenes não-clínica apresentou maiores níveis de expressão de InlA do que a cepa clínica, e que os meios utilizados interferem diretamente na expressão desse antígeno, sendo os meios de enriquecimento mais indicados para uso em métodos de detecção, independentemente da origem da cepa, o FRA, TSB e LEB. Observou-se também que não ocorreu diferença significativa na expressão de InlA quando as cepas foram cultivadas a 29 e 37°C. O RT-PCR em tempo real apresentou dados inconclusivos, visto que não houve diferença estatística significativa entre as condições analisadas, necessitando, dessa forma, de maiores estudos.

Abstract:

Currently, the wear of the articulating surfaces in contact have a significant influence on the life of hip joint replacement. It is therefore desirable to determine the influence of certain aspects on the wear of replacement. For this reason, master´s thesis deals with the influence of asperities of real surfaces of the hip joint replacement on its wear. The aim is to create computational models that would correspond to the real surface of the scanned prosthesis, performing strain- stress analysis and comparison with the results without the presence of asperities.

Abstract:

AbstractThe next approach to research on water was to measure the small amount of water actually moving within a plant. The best method is to utilize radioisotope (RI)-labeled water and measure the radiation from outside of the plant. However, it is rather difficult to label water, since there are only limited kinds of RI for tracing water.When utilizing 18F to trace water movement, another fundamental question to consider was the features that characterize drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive plants. It is natural to suppose that drought-tolerant plants have strong water absorption; therefore, by analyzing the water absorption mechanism of tolerant plants and by introducing this function to sensitive plants, it might be possible to make the sensitive plants more tolerant.However, when water uptake was studied in naturally developed drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive cowpea, selected from 2000 cowpea plants grown in the field of Africa, the result was unexpected. Under normal conditions, the amount of water absorbed by the drought-tolerant strain was much lower than that absorbed by the sensitive strain, as if showing the low capability of water absorption. When a drought condition was introduced, the tolerant strain began to absorb much more water than usual, whereas the sensitive strain could not absorb as much water as before. This result provided us with an important lesson. Analyzing the mechanism of drought tolerance only by comparing the water absorption of tolerant and sensitive plants might not readily reveal the reason for drought tolerance. The features of the naturally produced plants showed us different mechanisms that might not match our expectations developed in the laboratory.Next, we performed water measurements using 15O-labeled water, which has an extremely short half-life of 2 minutes. Here, we found another astonishing result, which was “water circulation” in the plant internode. A tremendous amount of water was always leaking from xylem cells, which had been regarded as a mere pipe to transfer water from the root to the aboveground parts. In another subsequent study, it was shown that the water flowing out from the xylem was pushing out the water already present in the stem and then returning to the xylem again to move upward. The water velocity in the internode was kept constant, and through simulation, it took less than 20 minutes to exchange the water already present in the stem with newly absorbed water.

Abstract:

The chapter reviews existing evidence regarding four aspects of economic inequality: relative factor rents, which relate to the factorial distribution of income and also underlie the so-called Williamson index (y/wus), which is correlated with the Gini index of household income; real inequality in terms of opposite movements of the price of consumer baskets consumed by different strata of society; the inequality of pay according to gender and skill, as well as between town and countryside; and wealth inequality, particularly with respect to the access to land. The main result is that, with given technology and agrarian institutions, there is a positive correlation between population and inequality.

Abstract:

It has been hypothesized that surface contaminants, such as lubricants on prestressing wires or strands, influence the resulting transfer length. However, until recently, the extent of this possible influence has only been speculation, as has been the relative influence on wire in comparison to strand. With the recent development of the ability to rapidly assess transfer length using new non-contact optical methods, it is now possible to explore hypothetical scenarios such as this with nearly real-time capability in the manufacturing plant. This paper presents a recent attempt to determine the effect of lubricating oil on the transfer length of ties, by conducting nearly real-time in-plant transfer length measurements using a newly developed prototype multi-camera non-contact transfer length measurement system. The testing was conducted on prismatic concrete turnout ties manufactured at the Nortrak plant in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Two different types of turnout ties were investigated, one containing indented 5.32-mm-diameter wire reinforcement and the other containing 3/8-in.-diameter 7-wire strand. These ties were located near the end of the casting bed. Prior to casting, one end of the form was sprayed with a generic lubricant, literally saturating the prestressing wires or strands. The ties were then cast and de-tensioned following the normal manufacturing process. This clearly represented a highly worst-case scenario for the influence of surface contaminants. Measurements were made using the new multi-camera system, providing a detailed profile of surface strain over several feet along each end of the last three ties in the casting beds (one for strand and one for wire) — the last tie being the one subjected to the application of oil prior to casting. Hence, the influence of oil application on adjacent ties was also revealed by these tests. For the tie end with strand reinforcement subjected to oil soaking, the maximum compressive strain only reached about 400 microstrain, far below the nominal average maximum strain level of approximately 1000 microstrain. In fact, the associated transfer length for the oil-soaked end could not be definitively measured because the strain level never achieved the plateau level of strain. In contrast, the tie end with oil-soaked indented wire exhibited a significant increase in transfer length; however, the transfer length remained well below the distance to the rail seat. From these worst-case tests, one can conclude that smooth strand is potentially highly influenced by lubricating oils, whereas the influence on indented wire is likely small by comparison.

Full text

Abstract:

Traditionally the measurement of strain from optical methods such as the in-plane moire technique is carried out by obtaining the displacement data from a fringe pattern and subsequent differentiation. In this paper, an electrooptic method is proposed for direct measurement of strain from moire fringes on test specimens by a moving-fringe procedure. A simple, real-time strain evaluation is achieved by directly processing intensity signals to obtain phase information from the moving fringes created by grating translation. The strain value at a point is directly proportional to the phase difference between the signals from two closely spaced photodetectors in the fringe field. The specimen carries a bonded grating over which a reference grating is translated at a constant velocity. The detector output variations due to fringe movement are sent through signal conditioning units to a programmable counter interfaced with a small computer. The measured phase difference is used for direct calculation and display of strain values. Preliminary results indicate that an accuracy better than 50 microstrains is easily achieved and is largely independent of the range of strain measurement. This optical strain-gauge technique using only noncoherent light offers the advantages of quick, realtime, remote, and selectable-point strain evaluation.

Abstract:

A study has been performed to simulate the impact experienced on hose support straps during end hose separations on railroad freight cars. Analysis and comparison of test results of different hose straps show that the elasticity of the hose strap determines the reaction force generated by a certain impact. Under the same impact, a stiffer hose strap sustains a larger reaction force. Unlike the current requirement of AAR S-4006, the relation between the elasticity of the hose strap and its reaction force is not linear. Additionally, for a certain impact, the reaction force of the hose strap is only related to its mechanical properties, which reflects the real application. This study concludes that a simple drop test is adequate as an alternative method for performance testing of hose straps.

Abstract:

This report presents, in detail, the development and implementation of a wireless solar powered DAQ system for continuous real-time monitoring of the Sagamore Parkway Bridge using the data collected from strain gauges installed in the bridge pier and its foundation piles. The data analysis showed that there is no significant change in the load-settlement response of the bridge pier 3 years after its construction. The pile cap contribution in carrying the total load carried by the bridge pier is significant (about 20%). The hourly ambient temperature trends match with the incremental bending moments measured on the bridge pier and the piles. The daily temperature cycles also affected the load transferred between the piles within the pile group. The water level fluctuations of the Wabash River impacted the total load carried by the pier, such that a rise in water level resulted in slight drop in the total load carried by the bridge pier due to buoyant forces. The overall results of the bridge monitoring showed that the bridge has performed well since its construction.

Abstract:

In this project we proposed to characterize the virus genome and the structural virion polypeptides to allow development of improved diagnostic approaches and potential vaccination strategies. These goals have been mostly achieved and the corresponding data were published in three papers (see below) and three more manuscripts are in preparation. The virion polypeptides of KHV strains isolated from USA (KHV-U) and Israel (KHV-I) were found to be identical. Purified viral DNA analyzed with a total of 5 restriction enzymes demonstrated no fragment length polymorphism between KHV-I and KHV-U but both KHV isolates differed significantly from the cyprinid herpesvirus (CHV) and the ictalurid herpesvirus (channel catfish virus or CCV). Using newly obtained viral DNA sequences two different PCR assays were developed that need to be now further tested in the field. We determined by pulse field analysis that the size of KHV genome is around 280 kbp (1-1. Bercovier, unpublished results). Sequencing of the viral genome of KHV has reached the stage where 180 kbp are sequenced (twice and both strands). Four hypothetical genes were detected when DNA sequences were translated into amino acid sequences. The finding of a gene of real importance, the thymidine kinase (TK) led us to extend the study of this specific gene. Four other genes related to DNA synthesis were found. PCR assays based on defined sequences were developed. The PCR assay based on TK gene sequence has shown improved sensitivity in the detection of KHV DNA compared to regular PCR assays. With the ability to induce experimental infections in koi with KHV under controlled laboratory conditions we have studied the progress and distribution of virus in host tissues, the development of immunity and the establishment of latent infections. Also, we have investigated the important role of water temperature on severity of infections and mortality of koi following infections with KHV. These initial studies need to be followed by an increased focus on long-term fate of the virus in survivors. This is essential in light of the current "controlled exposure program" used by farmers to produce KHV "naturally resistant fish" that may result in virus or DNA carriers. The information gained from the research of this project was designed to allow implementation of control measures to prevent the spread of the virus both by improved diagnostic approaches and preventive measures. We have accomplished most of these goals but further studies are needed to establish even more reliable methods of prevention with increased emphases on improved diagnosis and a better understanding of the ecology of KHV.

Abstract:

Bosna i Hercegovina prihvata načelno globalna opredjeljenja i proklamovane ciljeve relevantnih međunarodnih institucija (Pariški Sporazum, Evropski Zeleni Plan, i drugi) za prelaz na održivi niskougljenični razvoj baziran na kružnoj ekonomiji neuslovljenoj upotrebom prirodnih resursa, te težnju ka nultoj neto emisiji stakleničkih gasova. U energetskom sektoru to podrazumijeva povećanje energijske efikasnosti, te bezuvjetni prelaz na obnovljive izvore energije i eliminaciju fosilnih goriva. I dok je opšte opredjeljenje nesporno, način i dinamika ostvarenja pojedinih ciljeva u zacrtanom roku do 2050. godine sa najmanje negativnih ekonomskih, socijalnih, sigurnosnih i političkih posljedica predstavlja ozbiljni izazov, posebno u zemljama koje se, kao Bosna i Hercegovina, tradicionalno oslanjaju na sopstveni ugalj kao primarni energent. U cilju doprinosa iznalaženju optimalnih rješenja u energetskoj transformaciji, a u okviru Plana rada za 2019 godinu, Odbor za energiju, energetiku i okoliš (OEEO) Akademije nauka i umjetnosti Bosne i Hercegovine (ANUBiH) u saradnji i uz finansijsku podršku JP Elektroprivreda Bosne i Hercegovine d.d. Sarajevo, je organizovao regionalnno naučno-stručno savjetovanje: Budućnost postojećih i novih termoelektrana u BiH u energetskoj tranziciji, koje je održano 21. 11. 2019. godine u ANUBiH u Sarajevu. Cilj Savjetovanja je bio da nauka i struka, pod pokroviteljstvom i u okviru ANUBiH, u saradnji sa stručnjacima iz EU i Regije razmjene iskustva, stavove i planove o upotrebi uglja i biogoriva u proizvodnji električne i toplinske energije u periodu do 2050. godine. Na Savjetovanju, kojem su prisustvovali predstavnici vlasti i zvaničnih institucija iz BiH, naučni radnici, stručnjaci, menadžmenti elektroprivrednih organizacija iz oba bh. entiteta, je na bosanskom, srpskom, hrvatskom ili engleskom jeziku na prethodno odabrane teme izloženo 15 referata po pozivu. Pored stručnjaka iz BiH, referate su podnijeli i pozvani eksperti iz zemalja EU i okruženja sa elektroprivrednom strukturom i izazovima u toj oblasti sličnim kao što ih ima i BiH, a koje u proizvodnji električne energije karakteriše značajni, ili čak dominantni oslonac na fosilna goriva, naročito ugalj. U referatima su izloženi mogući modeli tranzicije i iskustva iz BiH, Srbije, Grčke, Sjeverne Makedonije, Poljske i Njemačke. Prošireni sažeci i slide prezentacije svih referata na jezicima na kojima su referati izloženi, kao i Zaključci Savjetovanja su sadržani u ovom Posebnom izdanju ANUBiH. Savjetovanje je potvrdilo da je dekarbonizacija elektroenergetskog sektora u EU i Regiji do 2050. godine opravdan, ali i veoma zahtjevan cilj. Svaka država koja se obavezala za takav cilj, mora razviti svoj model održive tranzicije, koristeći vlastito znanje, pomoć eksperata EU, te iskustva i modele drugih. U tom smislu zaključeno je da je veoma važno u što je moguće kraćem roku, u saradnji sa Energetskom zajednicom, detaljno i odgovorno koncipirati razvoj energetskog sektora u Bosni i Hercegovini u tranzicijskom periodu, dajući pritom do znanja Evropskoj uniji, ali i svima drugima, da je Bosna i Hercegovina spremna pratiti i ispoštovati generalno postavljene ciljeve u toj oblasti, uvažavajući pri tom svoju potrebu za energetskom neovisnošću. U tom cilju potrebno je definirati jasnu viziju, sa prohodnim putem do postavljenih ciljeva, uzimajući u obzir sve relevantne direktive i regulativu EU, ali i realne mogućnosti i potrebe Bosne i Hercegovine. Iskustva i poruke izložene u referatima, diskusije tokom Savjetovanja, te saznanja do kojih smo došli, a koji su sumirani u Zaključcima ovog dokumenta, čine korisnu bazu i orijentir za konkretizaciju strategije za aktuelnu tranziciju energetskog sektora BiH.

Zaufanie pracowników do sztucznej inteligencji w przedsiębiorstwach przemysłowych funkcjonujących w Polsce. Raport z badania.

Abstract:

Sztuczna inteligencja (SI) coraz częściej wpływa na życie jednostek oraz funkcjonowanie społeczeństw jako całości. W ostatnim czasie rośnie również znaczenie sztucznej inteligencji w biznesie, w którym posiada ona coraz szerszy zakres zastosowań. Definicje sztucznej inteligencji różnią się w zależności od kontekstu, w którym to pojęcie jest używane. W najprostszym ujęciu przez sztuczną inteligencję rozumie się systemy lub maszyny na nich oparte, które naśladują ludzką inteligencję podczas wykonywania określonych zadań i dodatkowo mogą się interaktywnie doskonalić (uczyć) na podstawie zbieranych informacji. Postrzegane korzyści i zagrożenia związane z wdrażaniem w przedsiębiorstwach rozwiązań z zakresu sztucznej inteligencji mogą różnić się w zależności od tego, kto dokonuje oceny zjawiska. To, co dla pracodawcy stanowi korzyść (np. obniżenie kosztów pracy), przez pracowników może być postrzegane jako realne zagrożenie związane z utratą pracy (zastąpienie pracownika przez rozwiązania oparte o sztuczną inteligencję). Ograniczenie wspomnianych obaw będzie możliwe tylko wówczas, gdy sztuczna inteligencja będzie rozwijana i wdrażana w firmach w sposób właściwy, pozwalający zdobyć zaufanie pracowników. Zaufanie ukierunkowane na technologię jawi się jako niezwykle ważna i interesująca poznawczo kategoria. Zaufanie do technologii przejawia się w gotowości człowieka do bycia pod wpływem technologii, wynikającej z użyteczności tej technologii, przewidywalności skutków jej działania a także wiarygodności jej dostawców. Pojęcie zaufania do technologii odnosi się zatem do wiary, iż druga strona relacji – w tym przypadku technologia – będzie działać w sposób przewidywalny i niezawodny, zapewniający pozytywne rezultaty. Nie bez znaczenia jest tu również indywidualna skłonność jednostki do korzystania z technologii, będąca efektem jej cech osobowościowych, związanych m.in. z wcześniejszymi doświadczeniami, otwarciem na nowe doświadczania, chęcią ciągłego poznawania i uczenia się. Identyfikacja oraz pomiar zaufania do sztucznej inteligencji, rozumianej jako najbardziej zaawansowanej formy rozwoju technologii, jest swoistym wyzwaniem z uwagi na latentną naturę rozważanej zmiennej. Biorąc pod uwagę, że zaufanie pracowników do sztucznej inteligencji w przedsiębiorstwie jest konstruktem złożonym, wielowymiarowym i nieidentyfikowalnym bezpośrednio w zrealizowanym badaniu podjęto próbę jego opisu poprzez inne konstrukty badawcze złożone z elementów (zmiennych) identyfikowalnych, które odnoszą się do obserwowalnych cech. Konstrukty badawcze niższego szczebla to: ogólne zaufanie technologiczne, zaufanie do zaawansowanej technologii w przedsiębiorstwie, zaufanie wewnątrzorganizacyjne, indywidualne zaufanie kompetencyjne. Celem przeprowadzonego badania była ocena poziomu zaufania do sztucznej inteligencji pracowników przedsiębiorstw przemysłowych funkcjonujących w Polsce. Poziom wspomnianego zaufania zbadano w oparciu o cztery, wymienione wyżej, konstrukty badawcze niższego szczebla. Z uwagi na stosunkowo niski stopień rozpoznania w teorii i praktyce problematyki zaufania pracowników do sztucznej inteligencji, przeprowadzone badanie miało charakter eksploracyjny. Zostało zrealizowane w okresie luty–kwiecień 2020 r. w 29 przedsiębiorstwach funkcjonujących na terenie Polski. Ich dobór miał charakter celowy i wynikał z możliwości uzyskania w nich zgody na realizację pomiaru. Dobór respondentów w każdym z przedsiębiorstw miał także charakter celowy. Pomiar z udziałem wybranych w ten sposób osób zrealizowano metodą ankiety bezpośredniej. Wzięło w nim udział łącznie 792 respondentów. Opisane jednostki poddano pomiarowi w miejscu pracy. Stosownie do zaproponowanej metody zbierania danych, instrumentem pomiarowym wykorzystanym w badaniu był kwestionariusz ankietowy. Uzyskane wyniki poddano analizie w każdym z czterech zaproponowanych obszarów (konstruktów badawczych niższego rzędu), dokonano także syntetycznej oceny konstruktu złożonego, jakim jest zaufanie pracowników do sztucznej inteligencji w przedsiębiorstwie. Ocena syntetyczna wyniosła S=6,63 (w skali od 0 do 10) . Wynik ten należy interpretować z ostrożnym optymizmem, świadczy bowiem o umiarkowanie wysokim ogólnym zaufaniu pracowników do zaawansowanej technologii, w tym sztucznej inteligencji. Odwołując się do ocen cząstkowych dotyczących poszczególnych obszarów warto podkreślić, że owo zaufanie jest wspierane głównie przez indywidualne zaufanie kompetencyjne oraz zaufanie wewnątrzorganizacyjne. Te dwa komponenty zaufania są ze sobą ściśle powiązane. Wyniki badania wskazują jednocześnie na niższy poziom ocen uzyskanych w dwóch pozostałych komponentach opisywanego konstruktu, jakimi są ogólne zaufanie technologiczne oraz zaufanie do zaawansowanej technologii w przedsiębiorstwie.

Objectives. The overall goal of the proposed research was to develop a mechanistic understanding of tospovirus evolution, diversity and vector specificity that could be applied to development of novel methods for limiting virus establishment and spread. Our specific objectives were: 1) To characterize newly intercepted tospoviruses in onion, Hippeastrum and other bulb crops and compare them with the known tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and its isolates; 2) To characterize intra- and interspecific variation in the virus transmission by thrips of the new and distinct tospoviruses. and, 3) To determine the basis of vector specificity using biological, cellular and molecular approaches. Background. New tospoviruses infecting bulb crops were detected in Israel and the US in the mid-90s. Their plant host ranges and relationships with thrips vectors showed they differed from the type member of the Tospovirus genus, tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). Outbreaks of these new viruses caused serious crop losses in both countries, and in agricultural and ornamental crops elsewhere. In the realm of plant infecting viruses, the tospoviruses (genus: Tospovirus , family: Bunyaviridae ) are among the most aggressive emerging viruses. Tospoviruses are transmitted by several species of thrips in a persistent, propagative fashion and the relationships between the viruses and their thrips vectors are often specific. With the emergence of new tospoviruses, new thrips vector/tospovirus relationships have also arisen and vector specificities have changed. There is known specificity between thrips vector species and particular tospoviruses, although the cellular and molecular bases for this specificity have been elusive. Major conclusions, solutions and achievements. We demonstrated that a new tospovirus, iris yellow spot virus (IYSV) caused "straw bleaching" in onion (Allium cepa) and lisianthus necrosis in lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum). Characterization of virus isolates revealed genetic diversity among US, Brazilian, Dutch and Israeli isolates. IYSV was not seed transmitted, and in Israel, was not located in bulbs of infected plants. In the US, infected plants were generated from infected bulbs. The relationship between IYSV and Thrips tabaci was shown to be specific. Frankliniella occidentalis, the primary vector of many other tospoviruses, did not transmit IYSV isolates in Israel or the US. Furthermore, 1': tabaci populations varied in their transmission ability. Transmission was correlated to IYSV presence in thrips salivary glands. In Israel, surveys in onion fields revealed that the onion thrips, Thrips tabaci Lindeman was the predominant species and that its incidence was strongly related to that of IYSV infection. In contrast, in the U.S., T. tabaci and F. occidentalis were present in high numbers during the times sampled. In Israel, insecticides reduced onion thrips population and caused a significant yield increase. In the US, a genetic marker system that differentiates non-thrips transmissible isolates from thrips transmissible isolate demonstrated the importance of the M RNA to thrips transmission of tospoviruses. In addition, a symbiotic Erwinia was discovered in thrips and was shown to cause significant artifacts in certain types of virus binding experiments. Implications, scientific and agricultural. Rapid emergence of distinct tospoviruses and new vector relationships is profoundly important to global agriculture. We advanced the understanding of IYSV in bulb crops and its relationships with thrips vector species. The knowledge gained provided growers with new strategies for control and new tools for studying the importance of particular viral proteins in thrips specificity and transmission efficiency.

Abstract:

1.1 Macroeconomic summary In September, headline inflation (11.4% annually) and the average of core inflation indicators (8.6% annually) continued on a rising trend, and higher increases than expected were recorded. Forecasts increased again, and inflation expectations remained above 3%. Inflationary surprises in the third quarter were significant and widespread, and they are the result of several shocks. On the one hand, international cost and price shocks, which have mainly affected goods and foods, continue to exert upwards pressure on national inflation. In addition to these external supply shocks, domestic supply shocks have also affected foods. On the other hand, the strong recovery of aggregate demand, especially for private consumption and for machinery and equipment, as well as a higher accumulated depreciation of the Colombian peso and its pass-through to domestic prices also explain the rise in inflation. Indexation also contributes, both through the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and through the Producer Price Index (PPI), which continues to have a significant impact on electricity prices and, to a lesser degree, on other public utilities and rent. In comparison with July’s report, the new forecast trajectory for headline and core inflation (excluding food and regulated items) is higher in the forecast horizon, mainly due to exchange rate pressures, higher excess demand, and indexation at higher inflation rates, but it maintains a trend of convergence towards the target. In the case of food, a good domestic supply of perishable foods and some moderation in international processed food prices are still expected. However, the technical staff estimates higher pressures on this group’s prices from labor costs, raw material prices, and exchange rates. In terms of the CPI for regulated items, the new forecast supposes reductions in electricity prices at the end of the year, but the effects of indexation at higher inflation rates and the expected rises in fuel prices would continue to push this CPI group. Therefore, the new projection suggests that, in December, inflation would reach 11.3% and would decrease throughout 2023 and 2024, closing the year at 7.1% and 3.5%, respectively. These forecasts have a high level of uncertainty, due especially to the future behavior of international financial conditions, external price and cost shocks, the persistence of depreciation of the Colombian peso, the pace of adjustment of domestic demand, the indexation degree of nominal contracts, and the decisions that would be made regarding domestic fuel and electricity prices. Economic activity continues to surprise on the upside, and the projection of growth for 2022 rose from 6.9% to 7.9% but lowered for 2023 from 1.1% to 0.5%. Thus, excess demand is higher than estimated in the previous report, and it would diminish in 2023. Economic growth in the second quarterwas higher than estimated in July due to stronger domestic demand, mainly because of private consumption. Economic activity indicators for the third quarter suggest that the GDP would stay at a high level, above its potential, with an annual change of 6.4%, and 0.6% higher than observed in the second quarter. Nevertheless, these numbers reflect deceleration in its quarterly and annual growth. Domestic demand would show similar behavior, with a high value, higher than that of output. This can be explained partly by the strong behavior of private consumption and investment in machinery and equipment. In the third quarter, investment in construction would have continued with mediocre performance, which would still place it at levels lower than those observed before the pandemic. The trade deficit would have widened due to high imports with a stronger trend than that for exports. It is expected that, in the forecast horizon, consumption would decrease from its current high levels, partly as a consequence of tighter domestic financial conditions, lower repressed demand, higher exchange rate pressures on imported goods prices, and the deterioration of actual income due to the rise in inflation. Investment would continue to lag behind, without reaching the levels observed before the pandemic, in a context of high financing costs and high uncertainty. A lower projected behavior in domestic demand and the high levels of prices for oil and other basic goods that the country exports would be reflected in a reduction in the trade deficit. Due to all of this, economic growth for all of 2022, 2023, and 2024 would be 7.9%, 0.5%, and 1.3%, respectively. Expected excess demand (measured via the output gap) is estimated to be higher than contemplated in the previous report; it would diminish in 2023 and could turn negative in 2024. These estimates remain subject to a high degree of uncertainty related to global political tension, a rise in international interest rates, and the effects of this rise on demand and financial conditions abroad. In the domestic context, the evolution of fiscal policy as well as future measures regarding economic policy and their possible effects on macroeconomic imbalances in the country, among others, are factors that generate uncertainty and affect risk premia, the exchange rate, investment, and the country’s economic activity. Interest rates at several of the world’s main central banks continue to rise, some at a pace higher than expected by the market. This is in response to the high levels of inflation and their inflation expectations, which continue to exceed the targets. Thus, global growth projections are still being moderated, risk premia have risen, and the dollar continues to gain strength against other main currencies. International pressures on global inflation have heightened. In the United States, core inflation has not receded, pressured by the behavior of the CPI for services and a tight labor market. Consequently, the U.S. Federal Reserve continued to increase the policy interest rate at a strong pace. This rate is expected to now reach higher levels than projected in the previous quarter. Other developed and emerging economies have also increased their policy interest rates. Thus, international financial conditions have tightened significantly, which reflects in a widespread strengthening of the dollar, increases in worldwide risk premia, and the devaluation of risky assets. Recently, these effects have been stronger in Colombia than in the majority of its peers in the region. Considering all of the aforementioned, the technical staff of the bank increased its assumption regarding the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate, reduced the country’s external demand growth forecast, and raised the projected trajectory for the risk premium. The latter remains elevated at higher levels than its historical average, within a context of high local uncertainty and of extensive financing needs from the foreign sector and the public sector. All of this results in higher inflationary pressures associated to the depreciation of the Colombian peso. The uncertainty regarding external forecasts and its impact on the country remain elevated, given the unforeseeable evolution of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, of geopolitical tensions, and of the tightening of external financial conditions, among others. A macroeconomic context of high inflation, inflation expectations and forecasts above 3%, and a positive output gap suggests the need for contractionary monetary policy, compatible with the macroeconomic adjustment necessary to eliminate excess demand, mitigate the risk of unanchoring in inflation expectations, and guarantee convergence of inflation at the target. In comparison with the July report forecasts, domestic demand has been more dynamic, with a higher observed output level that surpasses the economy’s productive capacity. Headline and core inflation have registered surprising rises, associated with the effects of domestic and external price shocks that were more persistent than anticipated, with excess demand and indexation processes in some CPI groups. The country’s risk premium and the observed and expected international interest rates increased. As a consequence of this, inflationary pressures from the exchange rate rose, and in this report, the probability of the neutral real interest rate being higher than estimated increased. In general, inflation expectations for all terms and the bank’s technical staff inflation forecast for 2023 increased again and continue to stray from 3%. All of the aforementioned elevated the risk of unanchoring inflation expectations and could heighten widespread indexation processes that push inflation away from the target for a longer time. In this context, it is necessary to consolidate a contractionary monetary policy that tends towards convergence of inflation at the target in the forecast horizon and towards the reduction of excess demand in order to guarantee a sustainable output level trajectory. 1.2 Monetary policy decision In its September and October of 2022 meetings, Banco de la República’s Board of Directors (BDBR) decided to continue adjusting its monetary policy. In September, the BDBR decided by a majority vote to raise the monetary policy interest rate by 100 basis points (bps), and in its October meeting, unanimously, by 100bps. Therefore, the rate is at 11.0%. Boxes 1 Food inflation: a comparison with other countries
