Abstract:
ABSTRACTPalmate umbrella tents used by tent-making bats in Trinidad, West Indies, were observed in three species of Neotropical palms, Sabal mauritiiformis, Coccothrinax barbadensis and Mauritia flexuosa. Tents were most common in palm leaves that have supporting petioles angled at 50–70° above the horizontal. The shape and volume of tents is influenced mostly by leaf morphology (leaf width and leaflet length) and age of the tent. Tent-crowns varied from being heart-shaped in S. mauritiiformis, oval or round in C. barbadensis and spade-shaped in M. flexuosa. Leaves in which tents were constructed were most often beneath overhanging vegetation, and were generally free of vegetation below, allowing bats to enter and depart from tents without being impeded by the clutter of adjacent vegetation.Singles and small apparent harem groups of two bat species, Artibeus jamaicensis and Uroderma bilobatum, were captured and observed in tents made from the leaves of S. mauritiiformis and C. barbadensis. No bats were observed in tents constructed in leaves of M. flexuosa. The apparent harem social organization in these and other tent-making bat species suggests that leaves modified into tents may provide critical and defendable resources that promote the evolution of polygyny. This hypothesis is based on the observed patchy distribution of suitable palm trees, the inappropriateness of many palm leaves as potential tents and the resultant architecture provided by palmate umbrella tents. We suggest that tent-making is an adult male behaviour.

Abstract:
A plastic tent was designed and constructed for the controlled atmosphere (CA) storage of small quantities of fresh produce. The CA tent is suspended from pallet racking in a standard cold room and can hold two standard pallets stacked 6 feet high with produce. Tents are sealed with two air tight zippers and a small water trough, resulting in an airtight chamber that successfully maintains CA storage environments. The CA tents are easily set up and removed to allow flexibility in use of storage space. To provide efficient use of storage space tents can be stacked two or three high on pallet racking. Tents are easily loaded and unloaded by a single person using a forklift. CA tents provide an economical alternative to traditional CA rooms for the storage of small quantities of fresh produce under CA environments.

Abstract:
The universality of literature has had great effects on literary unity. In this area, the effects of Arabic and Persian reflect the development of in-kind modeling of literary and literary overlap and become a wide field of comparative studies. Khayyam is considered to be one of the greatest men of the fifth century AH and has left a great literary imprint in the world of art and literature. One of the most famous of its variants is the reference to its quartets, which seem to have conflicting views of the universe and the Creator at first sight. This duplication, which we find in the quartets of the tents has produced many studies over the ages, including those Zahawi contemporary Iraqi poet, who was affected by the tents clearly. We find this effect when the quartets of the tents express the prose and the system, and also when it regulates its quadrilateral. We find that his idea inspired much of the quartets of tents. Here is the importance of studying the comparison between them through the quartets. And their cultural influences between them and this research includes common aspects between the quartets of these poets. The most important results we have reached in this study can be summarized as follows: Al-Zahawi was influenced by his quartets of the ideas and quartets of tents. The tents look at life and the universe with a pessimistic look and call for forgetting the melancholy of the world and its depression, while also drinking alcohol and Zahawi. The Arabization of the quartets of the tents by the Zahawi and the similarity of the contents of their quartets due to the cultural context common to them as a result of the knowledge of the Arab world on the ideas of tents. Such study confirms the connection and friction of both Arabic and Persian cultures.

Abstract:
Abstract Hybrid hazelnuts (Corylus americana Walter x C. avellana L.) are currently being bred for use as a cold-hardy perennial crop that could produce profits for Midwestern farms while supporting agroecosystem sustainability. However, asexual propagation techniques for producing germplasm for breeding and dissemination purposes have proven difficult. This study was one of a series attempting to develop a protocol for hardwood stem cutting propagation. This study assessed the impact that relative humidity (RH) and substrate moisture has on rooting of hardwood stem cuttings propagated in low-cost humidity tents. Hardwood stem cuttings retrieved from 14 hybrid hazelnut genotypes were planted into enclosed humidity tents, each housing 64 cuttings. Treatments were RH thresholds of 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90%, which were maintained by daily monitoring and watering to saturate the substrate when a tent's RH fell below its specified RH threshold. Cuttings propagated in 50% and 70% RH tents showed the highest rates of rooting at 16% and 12% respectively, whereas only 7% of cuttings rooted at 90% RH and 3% at 30% RH. By showing that intermediate RH levels and watering regimes are optimal for rooting, these results suggest daily monitoring is not necessary for hardwood stem cutting propagation of hybrid hazelnuts. Index words: propagation, relative humidity, substrate moisture, hardwood stem cuttings, hazelnuts, adventitious rooting. Chemicals used in this study: IBA (indole-3-butyric acid). Species used in this study: hybrid hazelnuts (Corylus americana Walter x C. avellana L.).

Abstract:
In this 3-yr field study, the activities of alfalfa leafcutting bees (Megachile rotundata Fabricius) (LCB) at varying stocking levels were monitored in shade cloth isolation tents containing male-sterile and male-fertile rows of oilseed rape Brassica napus L. to determine optimum conditions for hybrid seed production. Bumble bees, Bombus impatiens Cresson, were similarly tested in 1 yr; their pollination activities were minimal, and weight of seed produced on female lines in tents containing bumble bees was similar to that in tents without pollinators. Leafcutting bee activity, as measured by the number of female bees at the entrance to tunnels in the hive, at first increased, then decreased with increasing stocking rate. Duration of time spent visiting flowers did not vary with stocking rate, but was longer on male-fertile than on male-sterile flowers. Production of hybrid seed within tents varied with leafcutting bee stocking rate, with the highest seed yield achieved at stocking rates equivalent to three charges at weekly intervals of 400 000 leafcutting bees per hectare. At optimum LCB stocking rates, the method described provided sufficient seed quantity for small-plot multi-location field evaluation of oilseed rape hybrids.

Abstract:
A-tents are also known as pop-ups and by several other local names. They consist of raised slabs or plates of various thicknesses and origins. Laminae are caused by weathering, and spall plates or slabs may be caused in part by freeze-thaw acting on water held in pre-existing partings which are, however, like the sheet fractures that define the thicker sheet structures, probably of tectonic origin. A-tents are the result of the buckling of such laminae, plates and slabs. Again, tectonism in the form of compressive horizontal stress, appears the most likely and common causation, though decreases in lithostatic pressure consequent on unloading and, in particular cases, surficial expansion of plates caused by the intense heat of fires, may also contribute to rock failure and rupture. All A-tents are of Holocene age and are, therefore, neotectonic forms. Some have developed in living memory, and some are known to be developing from blisters. There is some evidence of continued dislocation along sheet fractures and of the transformation of blisters or arches into A-tents under the influence of continued lateral compression. This review demonstrates, therefore, that A-tents, sheet structures, and associated forms share a common heritage.

Abstract:
There is significant interest in using non-chemical methods to control seedling height in vegetable transplant production. One method being evaluated is the use of greenhouse films that filter signifcant amounts of far-red light from ambient light, resulting in shorter tranplants. This study was undertaken to evaluate fruit yield and quality of field-grown tomatoes produced from seedlings grown under light-filtering plastics. Tomato seedlings were grown under clear polyethylene tents or light-filtering laminate tents in a polyethylene-covered Quonset greenhouse in northern Ohio. Standard 288 deep plug trays, filled with MetroMix 360, were used. Seedlings were placed under the tents at the cotyledon stage and transplanted 28 days later. Once in the field, they were grown as staked plants under open conditions using locally accepted horticultural practices. Differences in seedling height were detected within a few days after being placed under the tents. Compared to those grown under clear polyethylene tents, seedlings grown under the light-filtering plastic increased in height more slowly and were shorter at transplanting. At harvest, within each of the three cultivars tested, no significant differences in fruit number, yield, or mean fruit size were found between treatments. It is inferred that this non-chemical method for reducing vegetable transplant height may be a viable production option in the future.

Abstract:
In eukaryotes, almost all RNA species are processed at their 3′ ends and most mRNAs are polyadenylated in the nucleus by canonical poly(A) polymerases. In recent years, several terminal nucleotidyl transferases (TENTs) including non-canonical poly(A) polymerases (ncPAPs) and terminal uridyl transferases (TUTases) have been discovered. In contrast to canonical polymerases, TENTs' functions are more diverse; some, especially TUTases, induce RNA decay while others, such as cytoplasmic ncPAPs, activate translationally dormant deadenylated mRNAs. The mammalian genome encodes 11 different TENTs. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the functions and mechanisms of action of these enzymes. This article is part of the theme issue ‘5′ and 3′ modifications controlling RNA degradation’.

AbstractPolar research teams often spend extended periods of time away from base stations, living and working in remote field camps of portable tents. This article reports results of a survey study conducted in 1996 of polar researchers from the United States. The study was about the design and use of portable field tents being deployed in polar areas with regard to safety, health, and well-being from the user's perspective. Preliminary analysis indicates that there existed a number of areas in design and use of the shelters that contributed to concerns of safety, health, and well-being among a considerable number of tent users. The article concludes with suggestions for designing and manufacturing portable field tents.

Abstract:
Abstract Hybrid hazelnuts are being developed as a new crop for the Upper Midwest for their ecological and economic value, but lack of economically viable propagation methods is a significant bottleneck to their wide scale adoption. In previous trials we found that hardwood stem cuttings could be propagated in low cost humidity tents constructed of molded plastic tubs covered with white 70% shade plastic. When the plastic was sealed tightly at the sides, these tubs maintained relative humidity near saturation, but also tended to overheat. This trial experimented with the use of ordinary household humidifiers as an alternative way of maintaining humidity while avoiding overheating. We found that it is not necessary to maintain RH near 100% as we had been doing when we kept the humidity tents tightly sealed. Stem survival and, as a consequence, rooting were improved in vented tents in which humidity was maintained with humidifiers, though these required much more management than the sealed tents.

Abstract:
During concrete construction in winter, the concrete performance is generally improved by adding a chemical admixture or providing protection using tents and hot-air blowers. However, long-term strength or safety accidents may occur due to the installation and removal of the tents. This study considered insulated gang forms to improve formwork methods. In this regard, the microstructure and micropore characteristics of concrete were investigated experimentally to examine the insulated gang form effect on the physical and mechanical properties of concrete. The micropore characteristics were investigated through scanning electron microscopy. The results confirm that applying insulated gangs improves workability and safety without adding chemical admixture. Moreover, the application of insulated gang forms reduces the use of tents and hot-air blowers. Therefore, insulated gangs provide excellent initial quality to the concrete.

Abstract:
In fuel-cell technology development, one of the most important objectives is to minimize the amount of Pt, the most employed material as an oxygen reduction and methanol oxidation electro-catalyst. In this paper, we report the synthesis and characterization of Te nanotubes (TeNTs) decorated with Pt nanoparticles, readily prepared from stirred aqueous solutions of PtCl2 containing a suspension of TeNTs, and ethanol acting as a reducing agent, avoiding the use of any hydrophobic surfactants such as capping stabilizing substance. The obtained TeNTs decorated with Pt nanoparticles (TeNTs/PtNPs) have been fully characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area diffraction patterns (SAD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and cyclic voltammetry (CV). We demonstrated that the new material can be successfully employed in fuel cells, either as an anodic (for methanol oxidation reaction) or a cathodic (for oxygen reduction reaction) electrode, with high efficiency in terms of related mass activities and on-set improvement. Remarkably, the cell operates in aqueous electrolyte buffered at pH 7.0, thus, avoiding acidic or alkaline conditions that might lead to, for example, Pt dissolution (at low pH), and paving the way for the development of biocompatible devices and on-chip fuel cells.

Abstract:
The brain capillary endothelium is highly regulatory, maintaining the chemical stability of the brain’s microenvironment. The role of cytoskeletal proteins in tethering nanotubules (TENTs) during barrier-genesis was investigated using the established immortalized mouse brain endothelial cell line (bEnd5) as an in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) model. The morphology of bEnd5 cells was evaluated using both high-resolution scanning electron microscopy and immunofluorescence to evaluate treatment with depolymerizing agents Cytochalasin D for F-actin filaments and Nocodazole for α-tubulin microtubules. The effects of the depolymerizing agents were investigated on bEnd5 monolayer permeability by measuring the transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER). The data endorsed that during barrier-genesis, F-actin and α-tubulin play a cytoarchitectural role in providing both cell shape dynamics and cytoskeletal structure to TENTs forming across the paracellular space to provide cell-cell engagement. Western blot analysis of the treatments suggested a reduced expression of both proteins, coinciding with a reduction in the rates of cellular proliferation and decreased TEER. The findings endorsed that TENTs provide alignment of the paracellular (PC) spaces and tight junction (TJ) zones to occlude bEnd5 PC spaces. The identification of specific cytoskeletal structures in TENTs endorsed the postulate of their indispensable role in barrier-genesis and the maintenance of regulatory permeability across the BBB.

Abstract:
Background: As mass participation events continue to increase in popularity, the need for medical care continues to increase. Our objective was to evaluate the course medical tent usage throughout the Bank of America Chicago Marathon course. Our second objective was to evaluate emergency medical services (EMS) utilization during the event. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that as the race progresses, medical tents will see more participants and EMS will have an increase in utilization. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis of data collected by the medical staff from 2015 to 2017. Documented patient encounters were analyzed from each course medical tent. Twenty medical tents were spaced roughly 1.2 miles apart depending on location and ease of EMS access to the medical tent location. Results: From 2015 to 2017, the course medical tents saw 2973 patients, with a 96.3% discharge rate. The data showed a linear increase of 5.69 patients seen per mile until mile 20 (linear regression P < 0.01). After mile 20, the number of patients seen per mile was about the same. The data also showed an increase in EMS utilization every 5 miles as the race progressed ( P = 0.04) and an increase in ratio of patients transported to the hospital compared with patients transferred to the main medical tents up to mile 20 ( P = 0.02). Conclusion: Course medical tents saw a statistically significant linear increase in patients per mile until mile 20. Total EMS utilization showed a statistically significant increase in usage as the race progressed and a statistically significant increase in ratio of transports to transfers as the race progressed until mile 20. Clinical Relevance: This study has the potential to influence medical tent and EMS placement for endurance events with increasing patient encounters and hospital transports as the mileage of the endurance event increases.

Abstract:
IntroductionChemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) cases are seen as an increasing risk because of the increasing threat of international terrorism. Decontamination is one of the basic components of the intervention for CBRN exposure. The introduction portable decontamination unit in the hospital setting is described in this presentation.MethodThe general properties, facilities, and capabilities of the portable decontamination unit, which is present in the GATA CBRN Department of the Turkish Armed Force's Health Command, were evaluated.ResultsThe portable decontamination unit in the hospital has a metal frame that is 54 m2 wide. It is composed of two tents that weigh about 300 kg. The metal frame, metal legs, and tent cloth are stored in carrying bags. Four people can construct the tents in 10 minutes. An educated squad of four people can prepare the decontamination system and instructions in 25–30 minutes. The unit consists of two lines: one for outpatients and another for inpatient decontamination, which includes a rail system. Each decontamination line contains an undressing, shower, and dressing section.DiscussionAlong with metal-framed decontamination tents, there also are inflatable tents. The inflatable decontamination units can be pitched in 5–7 minutes by an electrical air compressor. Metal-framed tents are easy to carry, as the frame, metal legs, and tent cloth are stored in carrying bags. By pitching the decontamination tent on a smooth ground in front of the hospital entrance, decontamination of patients can be completed before they reach the hospital. Another decontamination unit is in place next to the emergency department.ConclusionTerrorist attacks that result in mass casualties demonstrate the importance of CBRN preparedness. A decontamination unit and an appropriate CBRN preparedness plan should be constituted into the basic treatment system.

Abstract:
A plastic tent was designed and constructed for the controlled atmosphere (CA) storage of fresh blueberries. The CA tent was suspended from pallet racking in a standard cold room and held two standard pallets stacked 6 feet high with flats of packaged blueberries. The tent was sealed with two air-tight zippers and a small water trough, resulting in an air-tight chamber that successfully maintained CA storage environments. The CA tent was easily set up and removed to allow flexibility in use of storage space. To provide efficient use of storage space, tents could be stacked two or three high on pallet racking. The tent was easily loaded and unloaded by a single person using a forklift. CA tents provide an economical alternative to traditional CA rooms for the storage of small quantities of fresh blueberries and allows greater flexibility in marketing than traditional CA storage rooms. CA tents are suitable for the storage of other fresh produce that benefits from CA environments.

Abstract:
The Cianjur earthquake resulted in hundreds of deaths, minor to severe injuries, buildings destruction and landslides. Children studied in tents with appalling conditions. In addition, the impact of the earthquake that is even more serious is the emergence of trauma to children and adults. Before the earthquake happened, the children were cheerful and liked to play with their peers. The post-disaster turns the children’s feelings to gloom, quiet and afraid of the aftershocks' potential. The Directorate General of Higher Education, Research and Technology, which is involving Universitas Kristen Indonesia (UKI), is also overseeing the integrated community service (PkM) Incentive Program MBKM based on Key Performance Indicators (IKU) for Private Higher Education (PTS). The aim of the activity is to provide strength learning activity in the study tents and psychological healing for early childhood, kindergarten and elementary school students. The activities carried out are providing study tents and learning facilities, accompanying children by telling stories, playing games and ice breaking.

Abstract:
Emergency tents face challenges in harsh weather conditions and sometimes require the use of air conditioning for indoor thermal environment control. However, their lightweight structure makes their control methods different from conventional buildings. This study focuses on the indoor thermal environment and thermal comfort of air-conditioned tents during summer. Through experimental measurements, this study captures the distribution of air temperatures and inner surface temperatures within a tent, thus providing an understanding of the characteristics of indoor thermal environment in air-conditioned settings. Additionally, the numerical simulations conducted using the ANSYS FLUENT 2021 R1 calculate the Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD), thus contributing to a detailed analysis of the indoor thermal comfort states. The experiment revealed that the mean radiative temperature (MRT) inside the tent can exceed the air temperature by more than 10 °C. Even when the air temperature is around 26 °C, the excessively high MRT can cause occupants to feel uncomfortable, with the PMV exceeding 1.4 and the PPD surpassing 50%. Furthermore, the high MRT results in an increased demand for cooling airflow, with the cooling loss through gaps becoming a significant part in the cooling load. To ensure a comfortable thermal environment, the air-conditioning set temperature needs to be adjusted according to the weather conditions. For instance, even at the same air temperature of 35 °C, when solar radiation increases from 400 W/m2 to 1000 W/m2, the set temperature needs to be reduced from 24.7 °C to 20.7 °C. The findings of this study provide an important reference for establishing summer air-conditioning strategies for emergency tents.

Abstract: Throughout the years, tents have dominated the scene when it comes to emergency architecture, what is the reason behind it? Many architects and engineers have tried to put forward alternatives, and even though many ideas were brilliant they have failed to overcome the dominance of tents. This fact question whether we should really try to give alternatives or whether all our efforts should be focused elsewhere? The following entangles this argument through a series of researches and site visits performed in Lebanon.

Abstract:
SummaryThe final part of the account of this expedition describes experience and assessments of shelters, clothing, methods of travel, etc. Although the team lived throughout the winter in tents, a cardboard hut proved invaluable and easy to transport by air. The most robust design of tent was the Antarctic Pyramid, but this was not portable and proved cold in its lower regions. Lightweight dome tents were used for travelling, but needed protection from winds greater than 60 knots. Many different garments were taken. Although most were worn continuously for periods of three to nine months without their (or the underlying body) being washed, most performed very well. No subjective difference was observed between synthetic and natural fibre underwear in the face of these conditions. Foot and hand wear were less satisfactory. Insulation between body and ground was found to be very important in tents. Travel was largely achieved using ski-mountaineering techniques wearing rucsacs, and towing individual sledges (pulks). These enabled a lightweight, mobile and relatively cheap expedition, and should be considered for similar work in the future.

Abstract:
Introduction. The use of fireproof tent fabric at children’s tent camps remains a relevant problem. It may be resolved by developing a special flammability assessment methodology and criteria applicable to materials, used as the structural framework of tents. This solution will determine the choice of fabric.Aims and purposes. Materials, currently used to make tents, include natural or synthetic fabric and various polymers, that may be a fire hazard. In case of fire, safe evacuation of people may be unfeasible, although it is particularly important for children’s seasonal tent camps designated for sports and leisure.Domestic regulatory documents, that are currently in force, contain solely general technical requirements applicable to travel tents or ensuring fire safety in the territory of children’s tent camps, but there are neither fire safety requirements applicable to tent materials, nor any methods of their assessment. Meanwhile, there were cases of fire at children’s tent camps.The purpose of this work is to establish fire safety requirements applicable to tent materials used at children’s tent camps, to develop their testing criteria and methodology.The main objectives to be accomplished in order to achieve the pre-set purpose include the analysis of effective regulatory requirements and methods used to determine the flammability of tent materials, the establishment of parameters and criteria designated for their assessment and the development of a standard testing methodology.Results and discussion. Experimental studies were carried out to assess a set of flammability-related parameters of several types of fabric and polymers used to make outer/inner tents and ground sheets. It has been determined that currently used materials are fire-hazardous; therefore, it is advisable to limit the production of tents from combustible and flammable materials whose combustion may be triggered by low-calorie ignition sources, including those that can melt or release toxic combustion products.Currently used standard methods were applied to develop modified methodologies and classification criteria needed to assess the flammability of tent materials for children’s summer camps; experimental studies were also carried out.Conclusions. A draft national standard has been developed; it implies the establishment of the flammability assessment methodology and criteria and restricts the use of tent materials, that are extremely hazardous in terms of the toxicity of their combustion products.

AbstractIntroduction:Emergency medical services (EMS) responses to mass gatherings have been described frequently, but there are few reports describing the response to a single-day gathering of large magnitude.Objective:This report describes the EMS response to the largest single-day, ticketed concert held in North America: the 2003 “Toronto Rocks!” Rolling Stones Concert.Methods:Medical care was provided by paramedics, physicians, and nurses. Care sites included ambulances, medically equipped, all-terrain vehicles, bicycle paramedic units, first-aid tents, and a 124-bed medical facility that included a field hospital and a rehydration unit. Records from the first-aid tents, ambulances, paramedic teams, and rehydration unit were obtained. Data abstracted included patient demographics, chief complaint, time of incident, treatment, and disposition.Results:More than 450,000 people attended the concert and 1,870 sought medical care (42/10,000 attendees). No record was kept for the 665 attendees simply requesting water, sunscreen, or bandages. Of the remaining 1,205 patients, the average of the ages was 28 ±11 years, and 61% were female. Seven-hundred, ninety-five patients (66%) were cared for at one of the first-aid tents. Physicians at the tents assisted in patient management and disposition when crowds restricted ambulance movement. Common complaints included headache (321 patients; 27%), heat-related complaints (148; 12%), nausea or vomiting (91; 7.6%), musculoskeletal complaints (83; 6.9%), and breathing problems (79; 6.6%). Peak activity occurred between 14:00 and 19:00 hours, when 102 patients per hour sought medical attention. Twenty-four patients (0.5/10,000) were transferred to off-site hospitals.Conclusions:This report on the EMS response, outcomes, and role of the physicians at a large single-day mass gathering may assist EMS planners at future events.

Abstract Disturbance of the surface of Minnipa Hill Southeast, a low granite dome located on the northwestern Eyre Peninsula, on 19 January 1999, coincided with a shallow earth tremor, and it is suggested that the two events are causally related. The disturbance, which affected an area 170X100 m, took the form of rock bursts, reverse fault scarps, low angle planes of dislocation and overriding sheets, A-tents, dislocated slabs and blocks and widespread surficial flaking. Evidence of two earlier disturbances was noted. The event directly confirms the association of A-tents and dislocated slabs with compressive stress and by implication links bornhardts and sheet fractures with similar strain environments.
