Resumen

Abstract Nearly 40 different Asian elm (Ulmus spp.) biotypes, growing at The Morton Arboretum, Lisle, IL, were evaluated in laboratory bioassays and in the field for suitability and feeding preference of the spring cankerworm Paleacrita vernata (Peck) and the fall cankerworm, Alsophila pometaria (Harris). No-choice and multiple-choice laboratory feeding studies, and field defoliation surveys revealed that U. castaneifolia, U. changii, U. chenmoui, U. davidiana, U. elongata, U. gaussenii, U. glaucescens var. lasiophylla, U. japonica, U. lamellosa, U. lanceaefolia, U. macrocarpa, U. parvifolia, U. propinqua, U. propinqua var. suberosa, U. prunifolia, U. pseudopropinqua, U. taihangshanensis, U. wallichiana, U. wilsoniana, U. wilsoniana-98, and the simple and complex hybrids U. davidiana x U. japonica, U. davidiana x U. propinqua, U. japonica x U. ‘Morton’-Accolade™, U. ‘Morton’-Accolade™ x U. japonicapumila, U. ‘Morton Glossy’-Triumph™, and U. ‘Morton Plainsman’-Vanguard™ x U. davidiana, were less suitable for larval development and pupation and less preferred by spring and fall cankerworm larvae. Ulmus americana, U. glaucescens, U. szechuanica, and the simple and complex hybrids U. davidiana x U. ‘Morton’-Accolade™, U. szechuanica x U. japonica, U. ‘Morton’-Accolade™, U. ‘Morton Red Tip’-Danada Charm™ and U. ‘Morton Plainsman’-Vanguard™ were more suitable for and more preferred by spring and fall cankerworm larvae. Rankings for larval development time were highly correlated with larval longevity, but the proportion of larvae pupating was correlated neither with larval longevity nor with larval development time. Pupal fresh weights also were correlated neither with larval longevity nor with larval development time. Mean fecal pellet weights were correlated with the proportion of larvae pupating, but were not correlated with pupal fresh weights. Ulmus chenmoui, U. glaucescens var. lasiophylla, U. lamellosa, U. macrocarpa, U. propinqua, U. prunifolia, and U. pseudopropinqua all showed medium to heavy leaf pubescence and were less suitable and less preferred by spring and fall cankerworms. Asian elms were least preferred by cankerworm larvae, followed in order of increasing preference by European and North American elms.

Resumen

The aim is an assessment of the actual evapotranspiration of plants by using climate data in Nakhon Ratchasima with the R in the hydrological modeling function of Abtew and Morton CRAE formulation. There are using meteorological data from 2012 - 2016 at Nakhon Ratchasima station. The case analysis shows the results of evapotranspiration are the potential of evaporation of plants each year. Abtew analysis gave higher monthly evapotranspiration results during the dry season than Morton CRAE, but with Abtew formulation gave lower monthly evapotranspiration results during the rainy season than that of the method. The results are 2 ways to use evapotranspiration for water management, which is to analyze the amount of evapotranspiration for use in irrigation systems in order to water for plants should use the form of Abtew form because it can be seen that during the dry season and the plant has a high evapotranspiration value. Form Morton CRAE should be used to assess the potential water use of plants that can be seen in the dry season, the evaporation of plants is also less because in the surrounding environment there isn’t water and has little moisture causing plants to use less water.

Resumen

Vehicle ad hoc networks (VANETs) are special wireless networks which help vehicles to obtain continuous and stable communication. Pseudonym revocation, as a vital security mechanism, is able to protect legal vehicles in VANETs. However, existing pseudonym-revocation schemes suffer from the issues of low certificate revocation list (CRL) generation and update efficiency, along with high CRL storage and transmission costs. In order to solve the above issues, this paper proposes an improved Morton-filter-based pseudonym-revocation scheme for VANETs (IMF-PR). IMF-PR establishes a new distributed CRL management mechanism to maintain a low CRL distribution transmission delay. In addition, IMF-PR improves the Morton filter to optimize the CRL management mechanism so as to improve CRL generation and update efficiency and reduce the CRL storage overhead. Moreover, CRLs in IMF-PR store illegal vehicle information based on an improved Morton filter data structure to improve the compress ratio and the query efficiency. Performance analysis and simulation experiments showed that IMF-PR can effectively reduce storage by increasing the compression gain and reducing transmission delay. In addition, IMF-PR can also greatly improve the lookup and update throughput on CRLs.

Resumen

AbstractThis paper demonstrates the application of a new higher-order weak approximation, called the Kusuoka approximation, with discrete random variables to non-commutative multi-factor models. Our experiments show that using the Heath–Jarrow–Morton model to price interest-rate derivatives can be practically feasible if the Kusuoka approximation is used along with the tree-based branching algorithm.

Resumen

Abstract Over the last twenty years, various objective author-attribution techniques have been applied to the English Book of Mormon in order to shed light on the question of multiple authorship of Book of Mormon texts. Two methods, one based on rates of use of noncontextual words and one based on word-pattern ratios, measure patterns consistent with multiple authorship in the Book of Mormon. Another method, based on vocabulary-richness measures, suggests that only one author is involved. These apparently contradictory results are reconciled by showing that for texts of known authorship, the method based on vocabulary-richness measures is not as powerful in discerning differences among authors as are the other methods, especially for works translated into English by a single translator.

Resumen

Abstract The Book of Mormon describes a great division in mankind between the few who walk in the way of life and the many who walk in the way of death. This division results from the response of each individual to Christ or to the voice of God during probation. Men either hearken to the voice of Christ and progressively acquire spiritual life or they hearken to the voice of the devil and progressively descend into spiritual death. Nine Book of Mormon texts are examined in detail for their teachings on life and death. A diagram is constructed to illustrate the ideas of each text. The conception and portrayal of spiritual reality in terms of two mutually exclusive, progressively diverging, and correspondingly opposite ways of life and death are clearly demonstrated. This dualistic conception of reality underlies the entire Book of Mormon. An understanding of this paradigm is critical, both in order to assimilate the essential message of the Book of Mormon on life and death and to understand its theological relationship to the Doctrine and Covenants.

Resumen

The task of the author’s project “ecology without nature” is to use deconstruction to counteract prevailing normative ideas about nature for the sake of sentient beings suffering under catastrophic environmental conditions. Timothy Morton sees in the very idea of nature itself one of the obstacles to truly ecological politics, ethics, philosophy, and art. He calls for a thorough study of how nature is defined as a transcendental, unified and independent category. The study of how art represents the environment makes it possible to see that “nature” is an arbitrary rhetorical construct, devoid of a truly independent existence outside or beyond texts about nature. The rhetoric of nature itself depends on an ambient poetics, that is directed toward the evocation of the surrounding atmosphere or the world through text. Morton shows that people at different periods of time put various ideological meanings into the concept of “nature”; the historicization of this poetics makes obvious its vacuity of inner being and independent value. The history of ambient poetics depends on certain forms of identity and subjectivity, which are also historical. Without stopping at historicization, the author calls for the politicization of ecological art and the use of the rhetorical effect of “nature” as a slogan in order to strengthen environmentalism. The ecological thinking that Morton calls for does not operate with “nature” as a kind of ready-made, ideological concept and thus emerges as an ecology “without nature”. On the other hand, a non-conceptual image in environmental literature can be a convincing point of attraction for an intensive conceptual system — namely, an ideological one.

Resumen

Stephen C. Carlson's The Gospel Hoax sets out to validate the long-standing suspicion that Professor Morton Smith, late of Columbia University, forged his famous discovery of aletter of Clement of Alexandria, which quotes from a longer(“secret”)Gospel of Mark. This academic folklore has been passed on like an esoteric tradition since 1975, when Quentin Quesnell called on Smith to make the manuscript of this letter available for forensic testing in order to rule out the possibility of a recent hoax. Quesnell had difficulty substantiating his concerns. In his article in the Catholic Biblical Quarterly, he postulated that a modern scholar might have devised the letter as “a controlled experiment” in order to examine how scholars react to new evidence. Yet the manuscript of this letter, which Smith found in 1958, was inscribed on the last pages of a seventeenth-century book that purportedly was kept in a locked room of a monastery in the Judean desert. What modern forger would leave his creation there and gamble that someone would discover it in his lifetime? For this scenario to seem at all plausible, Quesnell needed to imply what he personally suspected, namely, that Smith forged it himself for this purpose. Accordingly, Quesnell described his hypothetical modern “mystifier” as someone who shared Smith's abilities, opportunities, resources, and interest in what people make of the document.

Resumen

Abstract This paper suggests the use of narrative criticism, a recent literary interpretive tool, as a favorable method of Book of Mormon interpretation. As an example of narrative interpretation, the Samuel the Lamanite narrative in Helaman 13–16 is analyzed as a discrete narrative portion of the Book of Mormon for the exploration of the possibilities of a narrative critical approach to its text. Instead of focusing on the content of Samuel’s exhortations, lamentations, and prophecies in order to understand these passages, I interpret the surrounding narrative and find it serves as an impressive complement to the doctrinal content of Samuel’s discourse.

Resumen

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly known as LDS Church or Mormon Church, typifies a conservative Christian branch that has been moving through phases in its views on homosexuality. We apply a historical-sociological framework, valid for most of Christianity, to identify how Mormon church leaders shifted from ambiguous tolerance to condemnation of homosexuality. A moral-theological rationale grew only afterwards. Individual church leaders determined the tone which morphed from homophobic to empathetic rhetoric with the nurture-nature debate, the fight against same-sex marriage, and the drama of teen suicides as backdrop. For Mormon gays and lesbians the present doctrine requires them to sacrifice their sexual identity in order to earn social inclusiveness and a promise of salvation. In a broader context of the development of newer religions, Mormonism wants to profile itself as a full-fledged church with both strong principles and Christian charisma, thus trying to shed a historically marginal heritage.

Resumen

Morton Feldman’s Last Pieces for piano solo of 1959 poses an interesting interpretive problem for the performer. As in many Feldman compositions of the 1950s and 60s, the first movement of the work is notated as a series of "sound events" to be played by the performer choosing the durations for each event. The only tempo indications are "Slow. Soft. Durations are free." This situation is complicated by Feldman’s remark about a similar work from 1960, "[I chose] intervals that seemed to erase or cancel out each sound as soon as we hear the next." I interpret this intension to keep the piece fresh and appealing from sound to sound. So, how the pianist supposed to play Last Pieces in order to supplement the composers desire for a sound to "cancel out" preceding sounds? To answer this question, I propose a way of assessing the salience of each sound event in the first movement of Last Pieces, using various means of associating each of its 43 sound events according chord spacing, register, center pitch and bandwidth, pitch intervals, pitch-classes, set-class, and figured bass. From this data, one has an idea about how to perform the work to minimize similarity relations between adjacent pairs of sound events so that they can have the cancelling effect the composer desired. As a secondary result of this analysis, many cohesive compositional relations come to light even if the work was composed "intuitively".

Resumen

Abstract This article will explore the impact of the changing world order on global religion. Specifically, it will analyze the challenges and opportunities that the upcoming post-American world order will have on Mormonism, which has been described as the quintessential American religion. In doing so the article will answer the question: How can an America-centric church become a global faith in a post-American world? This will be accomplished by looking at Mormon theology, as well as policy and practice of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including recent challenges it has had in Russia. By merging literature from international relations and religious studies, this article will be able to better understand the interplay between the changing world order and the abilities of global religions to operate within them. As the world order changes, global faiths will have to change as well. For Mormonism, these changes are daunting but not impossible, and they are already taking place.

Selon Sydney Brenner, lauréat du prix Nobel de physiologie ou médecine en 2002, « les progrès de la science dépendent de nouvelles techniques, de nouvelles découvertes et de nouvelles idées, probablement dans cet ordre ». Le prix Nobel de chimie 2022 a été décerné à Carolyn Ruth Bertozzi (université de Stanford, États-Unis), Morten Peter Meldal (université de Copenhague, Danemark), et Karl Barry Sharpless (institut de recherche Scripps, La Jolla, États-Unis) pour le développement de la chimie click et de la chimie bio-orthogonale. Ce prix Nobel récompense dans une large mesure un développement conceptuel dans les techniques de synthèse chimique et de marquages des cellules, mais également des nouvelles découvertes, notamment en cancérologie. Morten Meldal et Barry Sharpless (qui obtient maintenant son deuxième prix Nobel de chimie, après celui de 2001 pour ses travaux sur la catalyse chirale de réactions d’oxydation) ont développé la chimie click, qui permet d’assembler des briques moléculaires rapidement et efficacement. Carolyn Bertozzi, quant à elle, a porté la chimie click à un autre niveau, en permettant son utilisation biologique sur des cellules et même chez l’animal in vivo.

Resumen

Abstract The growth of Mormonism in England in the middle of the nineteenth century presented a number of challenges relating to the cultural status of the new religion and its followers. Charles Dickens’s “uncommercial traveller” sketch describing a group of 800 Mormon converts preparing to emigrate to the United States, “Bound for the Great Salt Lake,” represents the challenge effectively. While Mormons were quickly identified by their heresies and by those qualities that characterized cultural and religious otherness, they were also observed to possess traits of Englishness, reflecting the image of a healthy working class. This article considers the tensions among these contradictory qualities and traces them to a middle-class “secular gospel” that Dickens articulates in his novels. Dickens utilizes this “gospel”—an ethic that valorizes work and domestic order as bearing religious significance—to perceive the followers of the new religion.

Resumen

Abstract This article analyzes feminine bodily discipline through the intersection of fashion and faith in mid-century America. Through an analysis of the life and career of Rose Marie Reid—a world-renowned swimsuit designer—this article complicates the cultural history of bodily discipline by recovering the nuances of Reid’s roles as the head of a global swimsuit business and a conservative Mormon mother. I argue that Reid’s major intervention was an insistence that a desirable female subjectivity requires discipline, diligence, and material assistance—an articulation of Reid’s deep-seated beliefs about the eternal significance of gender, the body, and marriage. Reid’s swimwear suggests that what is exposed must first be enhanced while the mechanisms of enhancement remain concealed. Taking traditional Mormon views on gender to a conservative extreme, Reid’s regime of feminine bodily discipline ultimately aimed to perfect a woman’s body in order to attract a husband to which she could eternally submit.

Resumen

In this article we provide a condensed review of literature on developmental dyslexia. Starting with the historical background to this language-based reading disorder, we discuss four key components that are crucial for a valid and operational definition of developmental dyslexia. We then present the major theoretical explanations of developmental dyslexia in order to gain a better understanding of the causes of this reading disorder. These causal explanations are addressed in the context of Morton and Frith’s (1995) model. Four major theories of developmental dyslexia are discussed: the phonological deficit theory, the double-deficit theory, the magnocellular theory, and the cerebellar theory. The last section of this review addresses the model of reading development proposed by Frith (1986). Understanding the developmental progression of children’s abilities in reading is crucial in order to detect in which phase of this progression a breakdown attributed to dyslexia occurs.

Resumen

Against Nature, a book of L. Daston, is devoted to the historical transformations of the term “nature” and its significance in the formation of moral categories from Aristotle to our days. Daston pays special attention to the period between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries when “modern science” emerged. Daston clarifies the essential contents of such terms as “nature”, “normativity”, and “universal natural laws”, reconstructs the contexts underlying the introduction of these categories into scholarly discourse and finds out their significance in a situation of the growing social importance of scientific knowledge. All these let Daston trace the logic of at least three ways for the “order of nature” to transfer into “moral order” and conclude that the order of nature only had a representative function. The review contains parts of the Russian translation of Daston’s main ideas and conclusions, its critical and historiographic evaluation. Daston’s thesis about the weakness of naturalisation as discoursive strategy is contemplated in the context of the criticism of anthropocentrism, vividly illustrated by works of M. Serres, B. Latour, D. Haraway and T. Morton.

Resumen

Determining mobility status is an important component of any health assessment for older adults. In order for a mobility measure to be relevant and meaningful, normative data are required for comparison to a healthy reference population. The DEMMI is the first mobility instrument to measure mobility across the spectrum from bed bound to functional levels of independent mobility. In this cross-sectional observational study, normative data were obtained for the DEMMI from a population of 183 healthy, community-dwelling adults age 60+ who resided in Vancouver, Canada and Melbourne, Australia. Older age categories had significantly lower DEMMI mobility mean scores (P<0.05), as did individuals who walked with a mobility aid or lived in semi-independent living (assisted living or retirement village), whereas DEMMI scores did not differ by sex (P=0.49) or reported falls history (P=0.21). Normative data for the DEMMI mobility instrument provides vital reference scores to facilitate its use across the mobility spectrum in clinical, research, and policymaking settings.

Resumen

In the history of American popular religion, the Latter-day Saints, or Mormons, have undergone a series of paradigmatic shifts in order to join the Christian mainstream, abandoning such controversial core doctrines and institutions as polygamy and the political kingdom of God. Mormon historians have played an important role in this metamorphosis, employing a version (if not perversion) of the Church-Sect Dichotomy to change the past in order to control the future, arguing, in effect, that founder Joseph Smith Jr’s erstwhile magical beliefs and practices gave way to a more “mature” and bible-based self-understanding which is then said to best describe the religion that he founded in 1830. However, an “esoteric approach” as Faivre and Hanegraaff understand the term has much to offer the study of Mormonism as an old, new religion and the basis for a more even methodological playing field and new interpretation of Mormonism as equally magical (Masonic) and biblical (Evangelical) despite appearances. This article will focus on early Mormonism’s fascination with and employment of ciphers, or “the coded word,” essential to such foundation texts as the Book of Mormon and “Book of Abraham,” as well as the somewhat contradictory, albeit colonial understanding of African character and destiny in these two hermetic works of divine inspiration and social commentary in the Latter-day Saint canonical tradition.

Resumen

My essay will aim to prove that John McGahern’s Memoir foregrounds the material dimension of anticipatory grief and its aftermath as a space in which different affective responses to the “Thing” can be explored. Firstly, I look at how the text edits together memories of anticipatory grief in order to dramatize the “apparatus of thinking” (Steven Connor) as an affective spatiality (Marta Figlerowicz) in relation to an irrupting thingness within the object world. Secondly, I look at how McGahern and his father are “timed by things” (Timothy Morton) in their effort to remember or objectify affect, and how mourning itself becomes a matter of accepting nonhuman temporality. As such, this textual engagement with memories and inscriptions enacts a writerly form of anticipatory-vicarious grief, a “moral emotion” arising from the “anticipated harm” (Somogy Varga and Shaun Gallagher) that the subject feels will affect those close to her after her death.

Resumen

We consider an arbitrage-free futures price model of Heath–Jarrow–Morton type which is driven by a multidimensional Wiener process and a marked point process. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for this model to produce a log futures curve that changes only through parallel shifts. The same analysis is carried out for the case when the log futures curve changes only through proportional shifts. We prove that there exist nontrivial parallel and proportional shifting log futures curves and we show how to specify the futures price model in order to obtain them. Additionally the shift functions are characterized. Finally, we consider the case of all other single-factor affine models which are neither parallel nor proportional shifting curves. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the purely Wiener-driven log futures model to admit such other affine shifting curve and we characterize the shift functions.

Resumen

Detailed calculations show that the two most important dynamical problems in the formulation of a theory of star formation (namely, the angular momentum and magnetic flux problems) can be resolved in that order by magnetic braking and ambipolar diffusion, respectively, relatively early during the collapse of an interstellar cloud or fragment. Although the physical processes involved are complicated and highly nonlinear and the formal solutions are mathematically nontrivial, they can often be elucidated by exact analogies with small-amplitude, transverse waves on strings, by a mechanical (or quantum mechanical) “leaky” system of N coupled oscillators, and by spinning coaxial metal disks joined by rubber bands and sharing (as well as losing to an external medium) energy and angular momentum (see Mouschovias and Morton 1985a, Astrophys.

Resumen

Abstract For many years, archaeological research regarding the Oneota tradition has focused on broad similarities and trends among groups spread over a wide geographical area. While this research is important for understanding the tradition, examinations of synchronic variability between Oneota groups have been underdeveloped. Exploring this variability may help archaeologists better understand how different groups adapted to various social and environmental circumstances and the processes that led to the emergence of different historical social groups in the upper Midwest and eastern prairies. In order to begin exploring this variability in core practices, a pilot study was completed comparing cooking and foodways practices found during an analysis of vessel function on stylistically Oneota pots recovered at the Tremaine site (47Lc95) in Wisconsin and the Morton Village site (11F2) in Illinois. Preliminary results show that food practices between these two groups varied, possibly as a response to different social circumstances.

Resumen

“Word, birch bark”: Does Piotr Janicki’s [Dog’s Book] Need an Ecocriticism (and Vce Versa)? The article presents the work of Piotr Janicki, one of the most interesting Polish poets of the middle generation (born 1974). The author focuses primarily on the 2018 untitled volume of poems, referred to as [A Dog’s Book], in order to recreate the structure of the subject it contains, using the categories offered by the ecocritical discourse, represented by the works of Anna Ubertowska, Rosi Braidotti, Timothy Morton and other. In the course of the analysis, it turns out that an important assumption of Janicki’s poetry is the desire to break the anthropocentric perspective, which would place his work in the trend of “deeply ecological” literature, the task of which is, inter alia, to “infect” readers with new forms of sensitivity and imagination, breaking with the traditionally understood humanism, which places man above non-human beings, and not in a network of relationships with them, as it happens in [The Dog’s Book].

Resumen

Unbeknownst to most, in June of 1983, Quentin Quesnell made a visit to Jerusalem in order to personally inspect the Mar Saba document known as the Letter to Theodore. This is significant because it adds Quesnell to a small group of people who have testified to have seen the Letter to Theodore in person, and an even smaller group who have commented on its appearance and contents first-hand. Following Quesnell’s death in 2012 many of his personal belongings were acquired by Smith College (Northampton) and recently released to the public for viewing. Among Quesnell’s belongings was a journal full of notes, along with photos and letters to his wife Jean Higgins, all relating to Morton Smith’s discovery of the Letter to Theodore at Mar Saba and to Quesnell’s 1983 visit to Jerusalem. On the basis of these documents the following article offers a summary of Quesnell’s part in the debate over Smith’s discovery and a report of his inspection of the manuscript.

Resumen

An experimental study of the structure of round buoyant turbulent plumes was carried out, limited to conditions within the fully developed (self-preserving) portion of the flow. Plume conditions were simulated using dense gas sources (carbon dioxide and sulfur hexafluoride) in a still air environment. Velocity statistics were measured using laser velocimetry in order to supplement earlier measurements of mixture fraction statistics using laser-induced iodine fluorescence. Similar to the earlier observations of mixture fraction statistics, self-preserving behavior was observed for velocity statistics over the present test range (87–151 source diameters and 12–43 Morton length scales from the source), which was farther from the source than most earlier measurements. Additionally, the new measurements indicated that self-preserving plumes are narrower, with larger mean streamwise velocities near the axis (when appropriately scaled) and with smaller entrainment rates, than previously thought. Velocity statistics reported include mean and fluctuating velocities, temporal power spectra, temporal and spatial integral scales, and Reynolds stresses.

Resumen

I first encountered the name of Grohg some 25 years ago on the sleeve of Morton Gould's marvellous Chicago Symphony recording of Aaron Copland's Dance Symphony of 1929. Copland had hastily extracted this score from an unperformed ballet (written in Paris in 1922–5) in order to enter a major competition organized by RCA Victor records, when he realized that he would be unable to complete the planned Symphonic Ode in time for the deadline. I found this music very attractive indeed – amusingly Ballets Russes-ian to be sure but, in the precision and transparency of its sound-world, very characteristic of its author and not at all suggestive of a first attempt at orchestration (Grohg pre-dates the Organ Symphony, which was the first orchestral music of his own that Copland actually heard). I was also intrigued by the idea of a ballet that had been suggested by F. W. Murnau's classic silent horror film Nosferatu (1922).

Resumen

Post-mortem interval (PMI) is a major component of investigation in forensic science. It is one of the fundamental tasks for forensic pathologist when a body is found. According to criminal law point of view, a correct estimation of the PMI allows authentication of witness statements, thus restrict the number of suspects. Accurate PMI estimation is difficult because of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Analysis of the biochemical changes in glucose and electrolytes for PMI estimation has made significant progress. Molecular ways in which measurable or quantifiable technique for degradation of nucleic acid molecule such as DNA and RNA, may be the good indicator for PMI. Several studies have tried to determine changes in molecular markers to provide more useful information for PMI. The studies demonstrated mixed results that showed the influence of ante and post-mortem factors on nucleic acid degradation. More studies would be required in order to standardize on human cases under standard parameters. Thus, molecular aspects of forensic involves this application of omicsin medical sciences to investigate cause of death and its process at the genetic basis and biological molecular level. Keywords: Post-mortem interval (PMI); Molecular biology; DNA and RNA quantification; Forensic Genetic identification.

Resumen

Wireless sensor network technology has the potential to reveal fine-grained, dynamic changes in monitored variables of outdoor landscape. But there are significant problems to be overcome in order to realize the vision in working systems, such as effective utilize of energy, prolong network life and improve sensor accuracy. This paper describes the design and evaluation of a sensor network with an effective data aggression algorithm applied in orchard microclimate monitor. A novel feature of the solution is its data compression algorithm design, in which all sensors were encoded with Morton code and a logical multi-lays cluster was constructed among the nodes. Making use of the similarity of the output of the sensors, the algorithm reduces network data amount and power cost significantly to prolong life of the network. Tests and experiments results are shown in diagrammatic form. The system was field tested over one month in Nankou farm located in Beijing province of China. The experimental results demonstrate that effective collecting of environmental information can be achieved by using our proposed system.

Resumen

The general objective of the present work is to study the brittle fracture of the coarsegrain heat-affected zone (CGHAZ) of a C-Mn steel. The target is to develop a probabilistic model for brittle prediction for the CGHAZ based on microstructural data. The model is based on local approach. In order to validate this model, fracture mechanical test specimens (3-point bend) have been tested at different low temperatures; temperature dependence of fracture toughness was obtained. Post-morten examination of the fracture surfaces is used to gather information about the nucleation and arresting abilities of the different phases and interfaces respectively. Metallographic analysis has also been carried out for the HAZ.

Resumen

Deserts confuse, fogging memory and electrifying the imagination. In 1853, on Utah’s Sevier River, a ritualized killing spawned a folklore of deserts that lives on to this day. Captain John W. Gunnison, an engineer, had detoured into an ambush. Dismembered, decapitated, his heart torn from his chest, he had died, it was said, by order of the Mormon prophet and Utah’s Latter-day Saints. Fabulized over the decades, the tale was contorted with an evil king in a desert kingdom, with ghoulish assassins and restless corpses undead. Folklore saw what historians have been slow to perceive about hauntings in desolation. Memories of trauma run deep in disquieting strangeness. Places presumed to be empty set dark expectations for horror.

Resumen

As laser scanning technology improves and costs are coming down, the amount of point cloud data being generated can be prohibitively difficult and expensive to process on a single machine. This data explosion is not only limited to point cloud data. Voluminous amounts of high-dimensionality and quickly accumulating data, collectively known as Big Data, such as those generated by social media, Internet of Things devices and commercial transactions, are becoming more prevalent as well. New computing paradigms and frameworks are being developed to efficiently handle the processing of Big Data, many of which utilize a compute cluster composed of several commodity grade machines to process chunks of data in parallel. A central concept in many of these frameworks is data locality. By its nature, Big Data is large enough that the entire dataset would not fit on the memory and hard drives of a single node hence replicating the entire dataset to each worker node is impractical. The data must then be partitioned across worker nodes in a manner that minimises data transfer across the network. This is a challenge for point cloud data because there exist different ways to partition data and they may require data transfer. We propose a partitioning based on Z-order which is a form of locality-sensitive hashing. The Z-order or Morton code is computed by dividing each dimension to form a grid then interleaving the binary representation of each dimension. For example, the Z-order code for the grid square with coordinates (x = 1 = 012, y = 3 = 112) is 10112 = 11. The number of points in each partition is controlled by the number of bits per dimension: the more bits, the fewer the points. The number of bits per dimension also controls the level of detail with more bits yielding finer partitioning. We present this partitioning method by implementing it on Apache Spark and investigating how different parameters affect the accuracy and running time of the k nearest neighbour algorithm for a hemispherical and a triangular wave point cloud.

Texto completo

Resumen

Current meter observations from a field of en echelon sandbanks in Moreton Bay, Australia, provide insights into sandbank hydrodynamics and development. Re-circulation of sand is occurring around straight-crested, near-shore banks, but not around offshore, 'S'-shaped banks. Rather, net transport over this latter area is unidirectional (flood dominated). This is explained in the context of the evolution of the banks, in which the mature, near-shore banks have grown vertically upwards to the sea surface and thus contribute to the local generation of higher tidal harmonics and a residual current circulation pattern, whereas the crestlines of younger, 'S'-shaped banks are still mostly >5 m below the surface and do not affect the flow field significantly. For the mature, inshore banks, reversal of net sand-transport vectors over a distance of less than 1 km (from one side of an interbank channel to the other) is related to the amplification and phase modulation of the M4 tidal constituent. These observations are of relevance to dredging operations since, in order to minimize the impact on the sand-transport system, removal of sand should be from the end of the transport path. Transport paths, in turn, are identified based on directions of net sand-transport and grain size data. Observations from Moreton Bay and other locations around the world suggest that it is possible to dredge offshore sandbanks without affecting beach erosion, provided that there are no direct linkages between the offshore sandbank system and coastal deposits.

Resumen

The study reported here was concerned with the issue of reverse engineering of language test items as it relates to the identification of the language constructs underlying listening tasks of LELTS test. In this regard, the IELTS examination papers, from IELTS 1 to IELTS 10 were compiled as a corpus for the analysis. Tasks were analyzed using a taxonomic frame work adopted from Moore, Morton and price (2012), that was originally adapted from Weir and Urquhart (1998), with a focus on two dimensions of difference: level of engagement, referring to the level of text with which a listener required to engage in order to respond to a task (local vs. global); type of engagement referring to the way (or ways) listeners expected to engage with a text in order to process the material to respond to a task (literal vs. interpretative). Overall, the analysis found evidences of bottom up processing underlying most IELTS listening tasks. The majority of tasks were identified to have a ‘local-literal’ configuration on their orientation, demanding primarily a basic understanding of relatively small textual units of the material. The results of the study were used to suggest the practical implications for the four groups of the people involved in the IELTS educational contexts: participants; teachers; material preparation experts, and curriculum designers.

Resumen

AbstractGramsican approaches in International Relations (IR) have sought to outline the relationship between ideas and material forces in the construction of world order. Scholars working within this broad school have sought to emphasise that ideas are material forces, and must be considered as concrete historical structures (Cox, 1987) central to the establishment of particular historical and hegemonic blocs. This literature has primarily focused on the discursive construction of hegemony by international elites and the impact this has on political practices. While these insights are important in understanding the construction of world order, it is necessary to extend them to include the creation of actual physical structures – that is, it is vital to link the ideational aspects of hegemony with actual material processes. I will argue that a consideration of the role of technology provides an ideal vehicle for this process, building on the preliminary work of Bieler and Morton in this regard (2008). Technological structures are the product of particular cultural values and embed these cultural values within their very structure. Physical material factors thereby express ideational values constructed by specific social forces. Social practices are thus not only a function of the dominance of certain ideological formations, but also the product of the material environment itself and the manner in which the human metabolism with nature must function through these physical constructions.

Abstract According to the Book of Mormon, men must obey the commandments of God in order to gain eternal life. And yet, men are incapable of yielding full obedience to God, due to die carnal nature they inherit from the fallen Adam and Eve. To overcome this carnal nature, God has provided a way, through the atonement of his Son, whereby men may be redeemed from the carnal state to a spiritual state. If men are to be redeemed, they must call upon the Lord in the spirit of true humility, faith, and repentance. If they do so, God will redeem them by the power of the Holy Ghost. Frequently associated with the redemption process is a covenant of obedience.

Resumen

The epoch of the Anthropocene is on the verge of becoming scientifically acknowledged by the science of Geology. In what way does this concern Philosophy? In this paper, we evaluate how the new concept of the Anthropocene contrasts with the classical concept of Nature, aiming to identify the territory of both. In order to do this we take as our starting point the approach of Francis Bacon (1561-1626) which separates God and Nature. This later translated into the separation of Nature and Culture. The latter dualism is contested by Philippe Descola (b.1942) who defends the convergence of both. Bruno Latour (b.1947) and Timothy Morton (b.1968) consider the concept of nature as obsolete. Ulrich Beck (1944-2015), Erie C. Ellis and Mark Lynas (b.1973) claim that science will be able to cope with whatever changes the Anthropocene brings. We consider that all these claims, albeit apparently contrasting, are grounded in belief and as a counter-proposal we aim to bring to the table the concept of spirituality as essential to re-evaluate what Nature is today in the light of the Anthropocene.
