Abstract:
Background: Postpartum period was the return of uterine implants such as before pregnancy which takes 6 weeks after born. Good nutrition patterns would speed healing wound perineum. The high nutritional content of calories, protein, fluids, and vitamins needed for speed up perineal wound closure.Purpose: This study aimed to determine the relationship of postnatal maternal nutritional patterns with the healing of perineal wounds in Puri community health center Mojokerto.Methods: Analytical research design with Cross-Sectional. The population used postpartum mothers with perineal injuries. The sampling technique was through consecutive. The sample size was 90 respondents. The independent variable was nutrition pattern and the dependent variable was perineal wound healing. The instrument used was a questionnaire sheet postpartum maternal nutrition pattern and observation sheets for perineal wound healing.Results: The results showed 56 respondents (63.3%) had good nutrition patterns and good perineal wound healing, 27 respondents (30%) had poor nutrition patterns and moderate perineal wound healing, as many as 7 respondents (6.7%) had nutritional patterns less and bad perineal wound healing. Chi-Square statistical test results showed ρ (0,000) <α 0.05.Conclusion: It could concluded that there was a relationship between the nutritional pattern of the puerperal mother with the healing of perineal wounds. High caloric, protein, fluid and mineral intake and vitamins in the puerperium mother will accelerate the process of new cell regeneration so that the puerperal perineal wound heals faster. Postpartum mothers are expected to maintain a nutritional pattern for healing the perineal wound and not do certain food restrictions during the puerperium

Abstract:
Wound healing is a complex multiphase process which can be hampered by many factors including impaired local circulation, hypoxia, infection, malnutrition, immunosuppression, and metabolic dysregulation in diabetes. Redox dysregulation is a common feature of many skin diseases demonstrated by virtually all cell types in the skin with overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. The objective of this study was to characterize the redox environment in wound fluids and sera from patients suffering from chronic leg ulcers (n=19) and acute wounds (bulla fluids from second degree burns; n=11) with serum data also compared to those from healthy volunteers (n=7). Significantly higher concentrations of TNF-α, interleukine-8, vascular endothelial growth factor, and lactate dehydrogenase (measure of cell damage) were found in fluids from chronic wounds compared to acute ones. The extent of protein carbonylation (measure of protein oxidation), lipid peroxidation, and tyrosine nitration (indicator of peroxynitrite production) was similar in acute and chronic wound fluids, while radical scavenging activity and glutathione (GSH) levels were elevated in chronic wound fluids compared to acute wounds. Sera were also assessed for the same set of parameters with no significant differences detected. Nitrotyrosine (the footprint of the potent oxidant peroxynitrite) and poly(ADP-ribose) (the product of the DNA damage sensor enzyme PARP-1) could be detected in wound biopsies. Our data identify multiple signs of redox stress in chronic wounds with notable differences. In chronic wounds, elevations in antioxidant levels/activities may indicate compensatory mechanisms against inflammation. The presence of nitrotyrosine and poly(ADP-ribose) in tissues from venous leg ulcers indicate peroxynitrite production and PARP activation in chronic wounds.

Abstract:
It has been shown that after a critical point in the moult cycle of a cockroach, wound healing can occur but regeneration of pattern does not take place until the following intermoult period. Leg removal after the critical point is used to separate the processes of wound healing and leg regeneration. This permits the study of patterns of cell division resulting from wound healing to be distinguished from those involved in leg regeneration. During wound healing, cell division occurs in the epidermal cells of approximately the distal half of the trochanter. The cells then return to the resting state until after the next ecdysis. Regeneration starts with cell division occurring in the distal half of the trochanter, and then spreading to include cells of the proximal trochanter and distal coxa. This spread and the following patterns of growth and redifferentiation appear to be the same as for regeneration following leg removal prior to the critical point, with the more distal structures completing early stages of regeneration first. Scanning electron micrographs of the cuticle of the trochanter after the ecdysis following leg removal support the evidence from the patterns of cell division in suggesting that the distal half of the trochanter is dedifferentiated during wound healing.

Abstract:
Clinical observation suggests that oral mucosal wounds heal faster than skin; however, little is known about the site-specific differences. Since fetal skin wounds heal rapidly, but are less vascular than adult wounds, we hypothesized that less robust wound angiogenesis might be observed in healing oral mucosa. This study investigated angiogenesis in equivalent-size oral and skin murine wounds. Change in wound bed vascularity was significantly lower in oral wounds than in skin. Also, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels were less in oral than cutaneous wounds. Because keratinocytes are a prominent source of VEGF in wounds, we compared VEGF production by oral and epidermal keratinocytes in vitro. Significantly higher levels of VEGF protein and mRNA were observed in epidermal keratinocytes than in oral keratinocytes after 18 hrs of hypoxia. This study demonstrates distinct angiogenesis patterns in oral and skin wounds and intrinsic site-specific differences in VEGF production by keratinocytes.

Abstract:
Normal wound healing is a complex process that occurs in overlapping phases and depends upon interactions of the patient, environment and a large number of cells, growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and other biochemical mediators. Psychological stress has been shown to adversely affect the normal wound healing process through its impact on cellular immunity. Cellular immunity impacts wound healing through the production and regulation of many of the above biochemical mediators of wound healing. The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the relationships among pre- and post-operative psychological stress experienced by women who were undergoing either immediate or delayed breast reconstruction following mastectomy for breast cancer and influence of that stress on wound healing, specifically the biochemical mediators of wound healing in the local wound environment. An integration of Lazarus and Folkman’s cognitive appraisal model of stress and coping and the psychoneuroimmunology model proposed by McCain, Gray, Walter and Robins (2005) served as the theoretical framework for the research. A descriptive non-experimental design was used, with samples collected over time to describe biochemical patterns in surgical wounds of women undergoing autologous breast reconstruction. Biochemical data were collected preoperatively, as well as at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours postoperatively. Psychological stress instruments were administered pre-operatively and 48 hours post-operatively. Although subjects overall displayed low levels of psychological stress, meaningful wound fluid biochemical mediator patterns were detected. This study adds to our knowledge concerning wound fluid chemical mediators present in the local wound environment over time.

Abstract:
Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária<br>Na prática clínica de pequenos animais, a observação de feridas abertas é um acontecimento bastante comum. A sua abordagem e maneio dependem, essencialmente, da natureza das lesões – cirúrgica, traumática, patológica e iatrogénica – e devem recair em duas áreas-chave fundamentais: o paciente e a ferida. O correto maneio de feridas é basilar na cicatrização de feridas, proporcionando as condições ideais para o decurso deste fenómeno. As principais opções de maneio consistem em distintos procedimentos médicos e cirúrgicos, nomeadamente lavagem, desbridamento, técnicas de encerramento e de cirurgia reconstrutiva, drenagem, pensos, medicação tópica e antibioterapia. O recurso a técnicas avançadas é normalmente reservado para o maneio de feridas crónicas. O estudo observacional realizado no Instituto Médico Veterinário (Lisboa) possibilitou a observação de 179 animais com feridas abertas. A incidência de feridas cirúrgicas (80%) foi notoriamente superior quando comparada com a incidência de feridas não cirúrgicas, isto é, feridas traumáticas (15%), patológicas (4%) e iatrogénicas (1%). A análise particular de cães (n = 15) e gatos (n = 12) com feridas traumáticas permitiu identificar padrões de traumatismo em ambas as espécies, bem como reconhecer uma maior predisposição de animais jovens, não esterilizados e com acesso ao exterior a eventos traumáticos (p <0,05). De facto, os padrões traumáticos assumem um papel relevante na abordagem e maneio de qualquer paciente traumatizado, na medida em que facultam importantes informações ao médico veterinário, com repercussões diagnósticas e terapêuticas a curto e longo prazo.<br>ABSTRACT - Approach to the Management of Open Wounds in Dogs and Cats: Etiological Description and Study of Traumatic Patterns - In small animal practice, the observation of open wounds is a quite common event. Their approach and management depends essentially of the sort of injuries – surgical, traumatic, pathological and iatrogenic – and should fall into two basic key areas: the patient and the wound. The management of wounds is a basic concept in wound healing whose goal is to create the ideal conditions for the course of this phenomenon. The main management options involve different medical and surgical procedures, including wound lavage, debridement, closure and reconstructive surgical techniques, drainage, dressings, topical medications and antibiotics. The use of advanced techniques is usually reserved for the management of chronic wounds. The observational study performed at the Instituto Médico Veterinário (Lisbon, Portugal) enabled the observation of 179 animals with open wounds. The incidence of surgical wound (80%) was remarkably superior when compared with the incidence of non-surgical wound, that is, traumatic wounds (15%), pathological (4%) and iatrogenic (1%). The particular examination of dogs (n = 15) and cats (n = 12) with traumatic wounds allowed to identify trauma patterns in both species, as well as recognize a greater predisposition of young and intact animals with outdoor access to traumatic events (p <0,05). In fact, the traumatic patterns play an important role in the approach and management of any traumatized patient, as they provide important information to the veterinarian with diagnostic and therapeutic implications in the short and long term.

Abstract:
Bakgrund  Svårläkta sår är ett ökande problem som påverkar såväl individen samt samhället i stort. Dessa typer av sår ger ofta upphov till ett långvarigt lidande hos den enskilde personen eftersom tiden de tar på sig att läka i värsta fall kan dröja år. Andelen äldre antas öka de kommande åren och därmed också de svårläkta såren inklusive lidandet. Att svårläkta sår då behandlas med rutiner som baserar sig på beprövad erfarenhet men också vetenskap blir således essentiellt för att lidandet ska kunna lindras och patientsäkerheten garanteras. I enlighet med tidigare forskning har det visat sig råda viss tveksamhet bland sjuksköterskor angående hur omvårdnaden vid svårläkta sår bör se ut.  Syfte  Syftet var att beskriva faktorer som inverkar på sjuksköterskors omvårdnad av svårläkta sår.  Metod  Med hjälp av databaserna Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature [CINAHL] och Public Medline [PubMed] så inkluderades 16 vetenskapliga artiklar, kvalitativa såväl som kvantitativa, som användes som grund inför resultatet i denna icke-systematiska litteraturöversikt. Resultatet sammanställdes genom en integrerad analys.  Resultat  Huvudkategorierna som utarbetades efter att den integrerade analysen hade genomförts var två stycken till antalet: Faktorer relaterade till sjuksköterskan och Faktorer relaterade till verksamheten. Utöver huvudkategorierna så utarbetades även åtta stycken subkategorier i form av: Kompetens, Utbildning, Teamsamverkan, Invanda rutiner, Känslor och självförtroende, Verksamhetslinjer och policyer, Tid och Resurser.  Slutsats  Resultatet visade på att det var multipla faktorer som inverkade på sjuksköterskors omvårdnad av svårläkta sår. De inverkande faktorerna kunde kopplas ihop med sjuksköterskan respektive verksamheten. Kompetens, utbildning, teamsamverkan, invanda rutiner, samt känslor och självförtroende var samtliga faktorer som kunde kopplas ihop med sjuksköterskan. Även avsaknaden av verksamhetsriktlinjer och policyer, tidsbrist och resursbrister var inverkande faktorer på omvårdnaden och dessa kunde kopplas samman med verksamheten. Samtliga faktorer bör måhända arbetas med simultant och utifrån olika angreppsvinklar för att lidandet svårläkta sår för med sig ska kunna lindras, patientsäkerheten garanteras och för att omvårdnadsförutsättningarna för sjuksköterskan ska kunna förbättras.<br>Background  Hard-to-heal wounds are a growing problem that affects both the individual and society at large. These types of wounds often give rise to long-term suffering in the individual because the time they take to heal, which in the worst case can take years. The proportion of older people is assumed to increase in the coming years and thus also the hard-to-heal wounds including the suffering brought along by these wounds. That hard-to-heal wounds are then treated with routines that are based on proven experience, but also science, becomes essential for the suffering to be alleviated and for patient safety to be guaranteed. In accordance with previous research, there has been some hesitation among nurses regarding how the nursing care of hard-to-heal wounds should look like.  Aim  The aim was to describe factors that affect nurses' nursing care of hard-to-heal wounds.  Method  Using the databases Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature [CINAHL] and Public Medline [PubMed], 16 scientific articles, qualitative as well as quantitative, were included, which were used as a basis for the results in this non-systematic literature review. The results were then compiled through an integrated analysis.  Results  The categories that emerged after the integrated analysis had been carried out were two main categories: Factors related to the nursing profession and Factors related to the organization. In addition to the main categories, eight subcategories were also prepared in the form of: Competence, Education, Team collaboration, Routines, Emotions and Self-confidence, Organizational guidelines and policies, Time and Resources.  Conclusions  The results showed that there were multiple factors that influenced nurses' nursing care of hard-to-heal wounds. The influencing factors could be linked to the nurse and the organization. Competence, Education, Teamwork, Routines as well as Emotions and self-confidence were all factors that could be linked to the nurse. The lack of Organizational guidelines and policies, Time and Resources were also influencing factors in nursing and these could be linked to the organization. All factors should perhaps be worked on simultaneously and from different angles of approach so that the suffering of hard-to-heal wounds can be alleviated, patient safety guaranteed and for the nursing conditions to be improved.

Abstract:
This book takes an in-depth look at the widespread language of violence and abjection in early modern European love poetry. Beginning in fourteenth-century Italy, the book shows how Petrarch established a pattern of inequality between suffering poet and exalted Beloved rooted in political parrhēsia. Sixteenth-and early seventeenth-century French and English poets reshaped Petrarch's model into an idiom of extravagant brutality coded to their own historical circumstances. The book argues that these poets exaggerated the posture of the downtrodden lover, adapting the rhetoric of powerless desire to forge a new “countersovereignty” from within the heart of vulnerability—a potentially revolutionary position through which to challenge cultural, religious, and political authority. Creating a secular equivalent to the martyr, early modern sonneteers crafted a voice that was both critical and unstoppable because it suffered. The book tracks the development of the counter-sovereign voice from Francesco Petrarca to Maurice Scève, Joachim du Bellay, Théodore-Agrippa d'Aubigné, Edmund Spenser, and William Shakespeare. Through interdisciplinary and transnational analyses, the text reads early modern sonnets as sites of contestation and collaboration and rewrites the relationship between early modern literary forms.

Abstract:
Metaphysics is sensitive to the conceptual tools we choose to articulate metaphysical problems. Those tools are a lens through which we view metaphysical problems; the same problems look different when we change the lens. There has recently been a shift to "postmodal" conceptual tools: concepts of ground, essence, and fundamentality. This shift transforms the debate over structuralism, in many ways. For instance: structuralist theses say that "patterns" are prior to the "nodes" in the patterns. In modal terms it is clear what this means: the nodes cannot vary independently of the pattern. But it's far less clear what its postmodal meaning is. One expects it to mean that the pattern is fundamental, the entities in the pattern, derivative. But what would a fundamental account of reality that speaks only of patterns and not objects in the patterns look like? I examine three structuralist positions through a postmodal lens. First, nomic essentialism, which says that scientific properties are secondary and lawlike relationships among them are primary. Second, structuralism about individuals, a general position of which mathematical structuralism and structural realism are instances, which says that scientific and mathematical objects are secondary and the pattern of relations among them is primary. Third, comparativism about quantities, which says that particular values of scientific quantities, such as having exactly 1000g mass, are secondary, and quantitative relations, such as being-twice-as-massive-as, are primary. Finally, I take a step back and examine the meta-question of when theories are equivalent, and how that impacts the debate over structuralism.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the question of whether or not emotions and emotional standards change when a society moves toward modernity. It seeks to explore the current status of the issue, to indicate promising lines for renewed attention, and to urge greater priority for analysis and discussion. For emotions history, key initial questions involve whether any emotional changes accompanied the onset of greater modernity, and certainly what emotional shifts the changing economic and social structures would generate. The goal here is to relaunch a discussion, inviting contributions from both premodern and modern sides and with a special plea for work that bridges the two.

Abstract:
Composite Filament Winding describes the engineering involved in the design and construction of filament-wound products and the processes and equipment by which they are made. It covers everything from the geometry, physics, and math of winding theory to best practices for handling fibers and resins. It explains how constituent materials and winding patterns influence production quality and costs, how to estimate variables such as laminate thickness and roving dimensions, and how to express fiber trajectories on curved surfaces using vector calculus and intuitive observations. It discusses the design and operation of filament winding systems, the origin of various processes, and test methods and procedures. It presents examples demonstrating accepted design practices and the consideration of factors such as stiffness, discontinuities, stress ratio, mandrel geometry, and process control. It also includes a glossary of related terms. For information on the print version, ISBN 978-1-61503-722-3, follow this link.

Abstract:
AbstractUnfortunately, we cannot rely on designed and possibly already manufactured systems to operate as expected. These systems may have become defective during their use, or their function may have been compromised during the fabrication or their design. The purpose of testing is to verify whether or not an existing embedded/cyber-physical system can be operated as expected. In this chapter, we will present fundamental terms and techniques for testing. There will be a brief introduction to the aims of test pattern generation and their application. We will be introducing terms such as fault model, fault coverage, fault simulation, and fault injection. Also, we will be presenting techniques which improve testability, including the generation of pseudo-random patterns, and signature analysis. It would be beneficial to consider testability issues already during design. In case of fault-tolerant systems, resilience must be verified.

Abstract:
Climate scenarios show that Mediterranean areas will be affected by torrential patterns of rain, that can cause difficulties in urban life in coastal areas, mainly due to the draining systems and to the sea-level. Lisbon is on the estuary of Tagus river, which would be probably affected by run-off and by the forecasted rising sea-level. Redesigning its relationship with water, trying to make this urban area more resilient, becomes crucial and asks to study run-off and sea-level rise for 2100 and for intermediate steps, to adapt the urban life and its spaces to the occurring scenarios.

Abstract:
Chronic wound assessment and analysis has long been a major healthcare issue. Chronic wound management and treatment cost billions of dollars each year. The research to alleviate the burden of non-healing wounds and predicting when they will heal is progressing at incremental pace. Characteristics of a chronic wound are unique to both the patient and wound itself. Like a fingerprint, each wound has a unique set of properties that tell a story about its health and viability. Although each person’s wound is individual, there are a few underlying pathologies that are common amongst all wounds. For example, all wounds have a definite surface area, depth, and temperature at any given time. By knowing these common characteristics across all wounds, we can use both historical data and collected data to determine wound healing patterns and wound healing rates. The purpose of this study is to develop an algorithm that uses photography and statistical modeling to predict an approximate wound healing rate for lower appendage wounds. We focus on lower appendage wounds with a depth of 1–2 mm because lower appendage wounds account for approximately 70% of wounds seen at wound clinics.

Abstract:
A mechanical and optimal analyses procedure is developed to assess the stresses and deformations of Novel Wound Composite Axial-Impeller under loading conditions particular to centrifuge. This procedure is based on an analytical method and Finite Element Analysis (FEA, commercial software ANSYS) results. A low-cost, light-weight, high-performance, composite turbomachinery impeller from differently designed patterns will be evaluated. Such impellers can economically enable refrigeration plants using water as a refrigerant (R718). To create different complex patterns of impellers, MATLAB is used for creating the geometry of impellers, and CAD software UG is used to build three-dimensional impeller models. Available loading conditions are: radial body force due to high speed rotation about the cylindrical axis and fluid forces on each blade. Two-dimensional plane stress and three-dimensional stress finite element analysis are carried out using ANSYS to validate these analytical mechanical equations. The von Mises stress is investigated, and maximum stress and Tsai-Wu failure criteria are applied for composite material failure, and they generally show good agreement.

Full text
Abstract:
As a result of the new engine design trends, the likelihood of tightly-wound vortices being ingested by the engine rises. Therefore, the risk associated with the ingestion of swirl distortion becomes a major concern. A numerical analysis of the response of a transonic fan stage to the ingestion of different distorted flow patterns is carried out using steady-state CFD. The CFD approach is generated and validated against experimental data for undistorted inlet conditions. Following the validation, a wide range of configurations with vortex flow distortions are analysed and evaluated. The change in global performance is quantified and the flow field is extensively analysed. Consequently, the parameters that have the most critical impact on the performance of the fan stage are identified. The study identifies a close relation between the number of vortices ingested and the change in rotor performance. However, the deviation from the clean rotor performance has been found to be independent of the circumferential distance between vortices. Additionally, the effects of the radial location, polarity and vortex magnitude have been assessed. Ingested co-rotating vortices cause a significant reduction in pressure ratio and corrected mass flow. In contrast, counter-rotating vortices are associated with an increase in the pressure ratio and corrected mass flow. The change in rotor performance increases with the strength. However, a dramatical drop in pressure ratio is observed for counter-rotating vortices when the vortex strength exceeds a critical value.

Abstract:
Firearms-related incidents present an important area of study for forensic engineers. Analysis of bullet trajectories, examination of firearms failures, and the study of wound dynamics and projectile injuries are some of the topics to which the forensic engineer can offer valuable knowledge and insight for the purpose of reconstructing a shooting incident in a forensic context. One specific topic of study that forensic engineers engaging in the reconstruction of firearms-related incidents should clearly understand is the nature and distribution of ejected cartridge case patterns left at a crime scene after the discharge of semi-automatic firearms. While studies have been conducted into the effects that firearm design, ammunition, grip, stance, and movement have on the distribution of ejected cartridge cases, few, if any, of these studies have involved any type of engineering analysis. This paper will address the nature of engineering analysis applicable to the distribution of ejected cartridge cases at a crime scene by specifically addressing mechanical issues related to the design and maintenance of the firearm itself, the flight characteristics of ejected cartridge cases, and the restitution of cartridge cases that collide with intermediary objects. Experimental results will be presented, and testing methodologies will be discussed. Methods for simulating cartridge case ejection patterns based on testing data using Monte Carlo methods will be covered. Application of testing data and simulation to actual casework will be demonstrated.

Full text
Abstract:
Pipe and vessel structures made from fiber-reinforced polymer composites are know to commonly outperform metallic structures in terms of corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight ratio. However, composite pressure piping and vessels without internal lining are prone to leakage failure caused by matrix cracking. Microscopic fractures in the often brittle matrix phase grow and coalesce under loading, forming a network of matrix cracks that facilitates fluid to permeate the pipe or vessel wall. Hence, liners are often incorporated into composite pressure containment structures. Leakage failures usually occur considerably below pressures causing rupture of composite pipes and vessels. Hence, more efficient designs may be obtained if liners could be avoided altogether. To achieve this goal a thorough understanding of the damage mechanisms leading to leakage failure is required. Composite pressure piping and vessels are generally manufactured using filament winding or similar techniques. Resulting interwoven fiber architectures are generally considered to influence strain patterns and leakage behavior. Classical experimental methods are usually unable to verify this hypothesis, and therefore modeling techniques have largely been employed. In the present study, the effect of fiber architecture on surface strain patterns and the initiation of leakage were investigated experimentally using digital image correlation technique. Surface strain maps were produced for tubular filament-wound composite specimens subjected to combined internal pressure and axial traction. The findings of this study indicate that no distinct correlation exists between surface strain patterns and leakage initiation points.

Full text
Abstract:
In laser-based therapeutics, it is important to ablate target tissue with minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Unique properties of lasers allow precise and controlled ablation of tissue. Tightly focusing a short-pulse laser at the desired tissue region and controlling the exposure time by scanning the beam at the target can minimize corresponding collateral damage [1]. Even so, design of effective laser-based ablation procedures requires an understanding of the extent of laser-induced damage for given laser parameters (power, intensity, duration, etc.). Therefore, the instantaneous and effects over time of laser irradiation in live tissue should be studied. Instantaneous effects can be quantified by measuring thermal effects of laser irradiation on tissue. Depending on the application, threshold temperature is necessary to make permanent or temporary changes in tissue structure [1]. The temperature profile around the laser-irradiated region gives insight into radial energy spread and the extent of damage in tissue surrounding the ablation zone. In order to investigate the effects over time of laser irradiation of tissue, we studied the temporal expression patterns heat shock proteins (HSP), members of a class of proteins whose expression patterns change when cells are exposed to elevated temperature or other stressors [2]. We conducted experiments on live anesthetized mice to determine the spatiotemporal expression patterns of heat shock proteins in skin tissue after laser stimulation, both to understand the roles of heat shock proteins in laser-induced tissue damage and repair, and to develop heat shock proteins as tools to illustrate the extent of laser-induced damage and wound healing following irradiation.

Abstract:
Dyeing involves fixing a dye on a cloth, or creating a dyeing pattern. Because dyeing patterns depend on the physical properties of fibers, dyes, and dyeing technique that are employed, predicting a finished dyeing pattern is difficult even for artisans. Because dyeing is an irreversible phenomenon that requires a lot of time, to accurately predict a completed pattern would improve the efficiency of dyeing and reduce its costs. In this paper, we propose a digital method for designing dyeing patterns based on a simulation of the dyeing process. Dyeing experiments was conducted to model dyeing process accurately. From experiments, we defined the dyeing process is combination of two phenomena: capillary phenomenon and diffusion phenomenon. In the proposed method, integrated these two phenomena by using the cellular automaton method and generate dyeing patterns that produce different results depending on the pattern-generating parameters. The thickness of yarn and spaces between yarns in fabric is not uniform because of the influence of spinning and weaving. Therefore, in the proposed method, we use the fluctuation property, which is inherent in nature, to generate a dyeing pattern that preserves a natural impression. Based on the simulation of the proposed dyeing process, we developed a system that generates patterns based on KANSEI. Associating KANSEI with pattern generation parameters produces dyeing patterns that exhibit the required impressions (KANSEI) for the generated dyeing patterns. Based on this development method, we constructed a basic system for pattern generation and verified the effectiveness of the method.

Full text
Abstract:
Heavy minerals (HMs) are minerals with a specific gravity greater than 2.9 g/cm3. They are commonly highly resistant to physical and chemical weathering, and therefore persist in sediments as lasting indicators of the (former) presence of the rocks they formed in. The presence/absence of certain HMs, their associations with other HMs, their concentration levels, and the geochemical patterns they form in maps or 3D models can be indicative of geological processes that contributed to their formation. Furthermore trace element and isotopic analyses of HMs have been used to vector to mineralisation or constrain timing of geological processes. The positive role of HMs in mineral exploration is well established in other countries, but comparatively little understood in Australia. Here we present the results of a pilot project that was designed to establish, test and assess a workflow to produce a HM map (or atlas of maps) and dataset for Australia. This would represent a critical step in the ability to detect anomalous HM patterns as it would establish the background HM characteristics (i.e., unrelated to mineralisation). Further the extremely rich dataset produced would be a valuable input into any future machine learning/big data-based prospectivity analysis. The pilot project consisted in selecting ten sites from the National Geochemical Survey of Australia (NGSA) and separating and analysing the HM contents from the 75-430 µm grain-size fraction of the top (0-10 cm depth) sediment samples. A workflow was established and tested based on the density separation of the HM-rich phase by combining a shake table and the use of dense liquids. The automated mineralogy quantification was performed on a TESCAN® Integrated Mineral Analyser (TIMA) that identified and mapped thousands of grains in a matter of minutes for each sample. The results indicated that: (1) the NGSA samples are appropriate for HM analysis; (2) over 40 HMs were effectively identified and quantified using TIMA automated quantitative mineralogy; (3) the resultant HMs’ mineralogy is consistent with the samples’ bulk geochemistry and regional geological setting; and (4) the HM makeup of the NGSA samples varied across the country, as shown by the mineral mounts and preliminary maps. Based on these observations, HM mapping of the continent using NGSA samples will likely result in coherent and interpretable geological patterns relating to bedrock lithology, metamorphic grade, degree of alteration and mineralisation. It could assist in geological investigations especially where outcrop is minimal, challenging to correctly attribute due to extensive weathering, or simply difficult to access. It is believed that a continental-scale HM atlas for Australia could assist in derisking mineral exploration and lead to investment, e.g., via tenement uptake, exploration, discovery and ultimately exploitation. As some HMs are hosts for technology critical elements such as rare earth elements, their systematic and internally consistent quantification and mapping could lead to resource discovery essential for a more sustainable, lower-carbon economy.

Full text
Abstract:
Hanne Darboven’s (1941-2009) Opus 17a is a composition for solo double bass that is rarely performed due to the physical and mental challenges involved in its performance. It is one of four opuses from the composers monumental 1008 page Wünschkonzert (1984), and was composed during her period of making “mathematical music” based on mathematical systems where numbers were assigned to certain notes and translated to musical scores. It can be described as large-scale minimalism and it is highly repetitive, but even though the same notes and intervals keep repeating, the patterns slightly change throughout the piece. This is an attempt to unfold the many challenges of both interpreting, preparing and performing this 70 minute long solo piece for double bass consisting of a continuous stream of eight notes. It is largely based on my own experiences of preparing, rehearsing and performing Opus 17a, but also on interviews I have conducted with fellow bass players Robert Black and Tom Peters, who have both made recordings of this piece as well as having performed it live. One is met with few instrumental technical challenges such as fingering, string crossing and bowing when performing Opus 17a, but because of its long duration what one normally would take for granted could possibly prove to be challenging.

Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  Building blocks: The ultimate aim should be to build rich, detailed and testable narratives situated within a European context, and addressing phenomena from the longue durée to the short-term over international to local scales. Chronological control is essential to this and effective dating strategies are required to enable generation-level analysis. The ‘serendipity factor’ of archaeological work must be enhanced by recognising and getting the most out of information-rich sites as they appear. o There is a pressing need to revisit the archives of excavated sites to extract more information from existing resources, notably through dating programmes targeted at regional sequences – the Western Isles Atlantic roundhouse sequence is an obvious target. o Many areas still lack anything beyond the baldest of settlement sequences, with little understanding of the relations between key site types. There is a need to get at least basic sequences from many more areas, either from sustained regional programmes or targeted sampling exercises. o Much of the methodologically innovative work and new insights have come from long-running research excavations. Such large-scale research projects are an important element in developing new approaches to the Iron Age.  Daily life and practice: There remains great potential to improve the understanding of people’s lives in the Iron Age through fresh approaches to, and integration of, existing and newly-excavated data. o House use. Rigorous analysis and innovative approaches, including experimental archaeology, should be employed to get the most out of the understanding of daily life through the strengths of the Scottish record, such as deposits within buildings, organic preservation and waterlogging. o Material culture. Artefact studies have the potential to be far more integral to understandings of Iron Age societies, both from the rich assemblages of the Atlantic area and less-rich lowland finds. Key areas of concern are basic studies of material groups (including the function of everyday items such as stone and bone tools, and the nature of craft processes – iron, copper alloy, bone/antler and shale offer particularly good evidence). Other key topics are: the role of ‘art’ and other forms of decoration and comparative approaches to assemblages to obtain synthetic views of the uses of material culture. o Field to feast. Subsistence practices are a core area of research essential to understanding past society, but different strands of evidence need to be more fully integrated, with a ‘field to feast’ approach, from production to consumption. The working of agricultural systems is poorly understood, from agricultural processes to cooking practices and cuisine: integrated work between different specialisms would assist greatly. There is a need for conceptual as well as practical perspectives – e.g. how were wild resources conceived? o Ritual practice. There has been valuable work in identifying depositional practices, such as deposition of animals or querns, which are thought to relate to house-based ritual practices, but there is great potential for further pattern-spotting, synthesis and interpretation. Iron Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report v  Landscapes and regions:  Concepts of ‘region’ or ‘province’, and how they changed over time, need to be critically explored, because they are contentious, poorly defined and highly variable. What did Iron Age people see as their geographical horizons, and how did this change?  Attempts to understand the Iron Age landscape require improved, integrated survey methodologies, as existing approaches are inevitably partial.  Aspects of the landscape’s physical form and cover should be investigated more fully, in terms of vegetation (known only in outline over most of the country) and sea level change in key areas such as the firths of Moray and Forth.  Landscapes beyond settlement merit further work, e.g. the use of the landscape for deposition of objects or people, and what this tells us of contemporary perceptions and beliefs.  Concepts of inherited landscapes (how Iron Age communities saw and used this longlived land) and socal resilience to issues such as climate change should be explored more fully.  Reconstructing Iron Age societies. The changing structure of society over space and time in this period remains poorly understood. Researchers should interrogate the data for better and more explicitly-expressed understandings of social structures and relations between people.  The wider context: Researchers need to engage with the big questions of change on a European level (and beyond). Relationships with neighbouring areas (e.g. England, Ireland) and analogies from other areas (e.g. Scandinavia and the Low Countries) can help inform Scottish studies. Key big topics are: o The nature and effect of the introduction of iron. o The social processes lying behind evidence for movement and contact. o Parallels and differences in social processes and developments. o The changing nature of houses and households over this period, including the role of ‘substantial houses’, from crannogs to brochs, the development and role of complex architecture, and the shift away from roundhouses. o The chronology, nature and meaning of hillforts and other enclosed settlements. o Relationships with the Roman world
