Abstract The Peace of Venice (1177), which ended the nearly twenty-year-long schism between Pope Alexander III and his opponents supported by Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa, has long been the subject of controversy among scholars, who focused initially on the concrete provisions of the treaty and more recently on the symbolic acts that affirmed it. This paper uses Alexandrian sources to concentrate on peace itself as the pope’s most important political goal: the biography of Alexander written by his cardinal Boso, the frescoes in the Lateran Palace painted after the victory, and other statements made by the pope himself and his supporters reveal his primary goal to be the restoration of unity and peace. This thinking may have been rooted in the Christian ethic of peace as well as in the enduring ideal of cooperation between pope and emperor. It offers an explanation for the pope’s willingness to compromise in Venice, often viewed with astonishment today, expressed through the choice of location, the staging, as well as personnel and material decisions. Alexander did not aim to supercede the emperor, nor to achieve victory on specific issues in detail; instead, his goal throughout the schism seems to have been a return to peace and cooperation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The citizenship of the Vatican City State is characterised by individual features relating above all to the manner in which it is conferred and its forfeiture. The introductionof the legal category of Vatican nationality has its origins in the Lateran Treaty, but it was in 1929 when Pope Pius XI promulgated the law Legge sulla cittadinanza ed il soggiorno N. III concretising this institution which has lived to see its own reorganisation over time.Based on an analysis of Vatican legislation, it is possible to conclude that the present Vatican legislation is largely updated to current needs without losing its unique characteristics. The main intention was to present whether and how Legge sulla cittadinanza, la residenzae l’accesso N.CXXXI changes Vatican citizenship and what differences can be found in the newly created law. This process was based on a comparative method of legal acts, an analysis of the literature, as well as observation of interrelationships and dependencies. On the basis of this exercise, it was determined that the 2011 law remains within the original legal framework, but that its amendment is of a practical nature, intended to give individuals freedom of action and not to lead them to the appearance of possible negative consequences associated with the loss of citizenship.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Na wstępie autorka przypomina dzieje klasztoru kanoników regularnych laterańskich fundowanego w Kaliszu w 1358 roku przez króla Kazimierza Wielkiego i istniejącego tu aż do kasaty przez władze pruskie, a także sylwetki najwybitniejszych zakonników związanych z kulturą piśmienną i biblioteką klasztoru. Krótko przedstawia też dzieje i zasób biblioteki klasztornej. Główna część pracy poświęcona jest rekonstrukcji losu księgozbioru po zniesieniu klasztoru w 1810 roku. Po rewizji księgozbioru przeprowadzonej w 1819 roku przez Samuela Bogumiła Lindego, wskazana przez niego, najbardziej wartościowa część, trafiła do Biblioteki Publicznej w Warszawie, a następnie, w 1834 roku, została wywieziona do Cesarskiej Biblioteki Publicznej w Petersburgu. Część tego zbioru powróciła do kraju na mocy traktatu pokojowego w Rydze z 1921 roku. Obecnie znajduje się zbiorach Biblioteki Uniwersyteckiej w Warszawie. Z księgozbioru pozostawionego w klasztorze tylko niewielka część trafiła do biblioteki Szkoły Wojewódzkiej Kaliskiej oraz do biblioteki kapituły kolegiackiej w Kaliszu, którą w roku 1980 przewieziono do biblioteki seminaryjnej we Włocławku. A LIBRARY OF REGULAR LATERAN CANONS IN KALISZ AND ITS FATE AFTER THE LIQUIDATION OF THE MONASTERY IN 1810 At the outset, the author recalls the history of the monastery of Lateran canons founded in Kalisz in 1358 by King Casimir the Great and existing there until the annnulment taken by the Prussian authorities, as well as profiles of the greatest religious written culture and the library of the monastery. Their history and the monastic library resources are also shortly shown. The main part of the work is devoted to the reconstruction of the fate of the library after the abolition of the monastery in 1810. After the review of the book collection made in 1819 by Samuel Linde, indicated by him, the most valuable part went to the public library in Warsaw, and then, in 1834, was exported to the Imperial Public Library in St. Petersburg. A part of this collection returned to the country under a peace treaty in Riga of 1921. Currently, it is a collection of the University Library in Warsaw. From the monastery‘s library only a small part was tatkn to the provincial school libraries and Kalisz collegiate chapter which in 1980 was moved to a library of the seminary in Włocławek.

Objective: This study aims to determine the results of the functionalization of the 1929 Lateran Treaty and Law Number 37 of 1999 concerning Foreign Relations in fostering relations between the Holy See and Indonesia on interfaith dialogue cooperation. Method: The three levels of analysis used in this study are individuals, organizations, and nation-states. The researcher switched between different levels of analysis and, depending on the situation, decided to emphasize one level over another. Research Findings and Discussion: The diplomatic ties between Indonesia and the Vatican support their shared efforts to uphold religious freedom, particularly in Indonesia. To promote peace in living in a pluralistic society, this religious harmony involves religious understanding that respects the diversity of religions. Research Implications: Indonesia's constitution protects religious freedom. Just that the demand for a certain number of resident signatures and the occurrence of numerous acts of intolerance in various places make the elaboration in legislative restrictions incompatible with the Constitution. Tolerance-related diplomacy between Indonesia and the Vatican is a calculated move on the global stage. Similar this, grassroots initiatives to promote tolerance such as tolerance villages, interfaith events, and religious discussion are strategic measures. Originality/value: To achieve the friendly and tolerant Indonesia envisioned in the Constitution and desired by the Indonesian people, the strategic actions must be combined and further developed. The Indonesian government and its citizens are very concerned about the problem of ensuring religious freedom.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In the course of the last year Italy was confronted with the unusual request from the Vatican City to extradite an Italian national to face charges of embezzlement and misappropriation of Holy See funds. The Holy See requested the extradition of Cecilia Marogna, a self described intelligence analyst and private spy from Sardinia, who worked for Cardinal Angelo Becciu, a senior Vatican official who was demoted over embezzlement claims. The case has received considerable press coverage and attention through print and online media worldwide, not least because of its numerous twists and turns such as the arrest of Marogna in Milan on an Interpol warrant issued at the Holy See’s request, the sudden drop of the extradition request by the Vatican authorities, and Italy’s highest court ruling thatCecilia Marogna never should have been arrested before a court evaluated whether she could be extradited. The aim of this Article is to explore whether the extradition of an Italian national, from Italy to the Vatican, unlike what has been claimed by Marogna’s defense lawyers and implicitly accepted by the Vatican authorities that dropped the extradition request, is instead possible. The thesis defends this possibility regardless of the absence of a bilateral extradition treaty between Italy and the Vatican and of an ad hoc extradition agreement between Italy and the Holy See. But this is only provided that the request for extradition concerns an Italian citizen convicted or accused of corruption-related crimes like Cecilia Marogna. This Article will proceed as follows: after an introduction,Section 1 will discuss and reject an argument that infers a prohibition of extradition from Italy to the Vatican from the wording of Article 22 of the Lateran Treaty of 1929. Sections 2 and 3 will consider and exclude that an obstacle to extradition from Vatican City to Italy may be inferred from the poor quality of the criminal justice system in Vatican City or from the authoritarian character of the Vatican’s internal legal order that is only presumed but not demonstrated. Finally, Section 4 will claim and argue that a proper duty toextradite persons not only from the Vatican to Italy but also from Italy to the Vatican should be inferred from Articles 43 to 49 of the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNAC) of which both Italy and the Vatican City/Holy See are bound as contracting parties.

Intervertebral disk disease is one of the most common neurological conditions in dogs; thoracolumbar disk is a usual cause of neurological dysfunction in this species. Several clinical and surgical treatments have been described, ranging from acupuncture and confinement to the use of anti-inflammatory, analgesic and muscle relaxant drugs, as well as the employment of varied surgical decompression techniques. The partial thoracolumbar lateral corpectomy is an alternative and effective surgical technique to treat chronic and acute thoracolumbar disk disease. It allows adequate access to the floor of the spinal canal for removal of disc material with minimal handling of the spinal cord, allowing wide and effective decompression. This review deals with anatomical, surgical and biomechanical aspects of this technique, and discusses its indications, advantages and disadvantages.

In his recent article, Söderlund [Söderlund, P.J., 2003. The significance of structural power resources in the Russian bi-lateral treaty process 1994–1998. Communist and Post-Communist Studies 36, 311–324] tests structural factors that influence the order in which the Russian regions gained a bi-lateral agreement with the federal centre, emphasizing the importance of ethnicity, religion and economy. We replicate his results, and provide an extension where we argue instead that the only significant determinants of the bi-lateral process have been economic issues. Our results are substantiated by an improved methodology that addresses several debatable choices made by the author in the original article.

The Treaty of Rome of 25 March 1957 established the European Economic Community and with it different kinds of norms and policies. Since then, much has happened and 60 years later some of these norms and policies can be seen as a success, while others are more properly described as failures. This thesis will first give an overview of the history of the European integration, from the Schuman Declaration to the Treaty of Rome, to then analyze the common commercial policy and the freedom of movement for workers as two policies of success, and the abolition of the gender pay gap and Brexit as two cases of failure. It will then describe the human rights policy of the European Union as a case presenting both elements of success as well as elements of failure. Finally, the conclusion will try to clarify whether the project of European integration, started with the Treaty of Rome, on the whole might be more properly described as a success or as a failure.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
South Africa experienced an unprecedented growth in its tax treaty network since 1994 as a result of an increase in global trade. In concluding these bi-lateral tax treaties with other countries, South Africa depends primarily on its national model policy during its negotiations with other contracting states. The country’s national tax treaty policy was previously defined in one document, the publication of which has since been discontinued. Apart from Professor C West’s contribution to the global tax community, there is little research information available on the current tax treaty policy of South Africa. It is submitted that the OECD Model and its positions recorded in the commentaries are now widely accepted as the national tax treaty policy of South Africa. The findings of the comparative analysis between the previously documented tax treaty policy and this new widely accepted position of South Africa, suggested that the OECD Model and its recorded positions in the commentaries, subject to a few exceptions, is a fair reflection of South Africa’s national tax treaty policy. It is submitted that South Africa accepted common deviations from its national tax treaty policy when negotiating bi-lateral treaties with countries in the Americas, Asia and Australasia. Previous research failed to provide guidance in this aspect and in an attempt to seek common deviations from South Africa’s national tax treaty policy, a comparative analysis was conducted to identify trends (whether regional or otherwise) in tax treaties with a sample of countries in Asia, Australasia, North America and South America. The findings of this comparative analysis indicated that South Africa successfully applied its national tax treaty policy to a large extend, but does accept common deviations from the policy.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Dans cette thèse, nous avons étudié la relation entre le traitement par antidépresseurs, la prise du poids et le syndrome métabolique sur un échantillon de patients atteints de TDM. Les résultats cliniques ont suggéré que la prise du poids précoce due au traitement par antidépresseurs augmenterait le risque de prise du poids ultérieure et d’incidence ultérieure du syndrome métabolique. Ainsi que la relation entre l'utilisation des antidépresseurs, la réponse au traitement et la prise du poids reste complexe. Malgré l'augmentation simultanée de la consommation d'antidépresseurs et la tendance à l'obésité dans les sociétés occidentales, des cohortes prospectives supplémentaires sont nécessaires pour tester pleinement l'hypothèse traitant que la prise du poids chez les utilisateurs des antidépresseurs est un effet iatrogène. Bien que l'impact des antidépresseurs sur la morbidité cardiovasculaire ne puisse toujours pas être déterminé, les résultats du premier chapitre ont montré que l'utilisation des antidépresseurs, indépendamment de leurs classes, avait un impact sur les dérèglements métaboliques, nécessitant une attention clinique spécifique. Une étude de cohorte à long terme est nécessaire pour confirmer si l'interruption et la réinstauration du traitement par des antidépresseurs seraient liées à la fluctuation des dysrégulations du syndrome métaboliqueIn this dissertation we have studied the relationship between AD treatment, weight gain and MetS on a sample of MDD patients. Clinical findings have suggested that early weight gain due to AD treatment would increase the risk of both later weight gain and later MetS incidence. The relationship between AD use, response to treatment and weight gain remain complex. Despite the simultaneous increase in AD use and obesity trends in Western societies, additional prospective cohorts are needed to fully test the hypothesis that weight gain among AD users is indeed an iatrogenic effect. Although impact of AD on cardiovascular morbidity still cannot be ascertained, the results from the first chapter showed that AD use – irrespective of the class - does impact and worsen metabolic dysregulations, which would require specific clinical attention. A long term cohort study is required to confirm whether discontinuation and re-initiation of AD treatment would be linked to fluctuation in MetS dysregulations

The behavior of piles under lateral loading is important to the safety of construction. The magnitude of the lateral displacement of the pile under lateral loading depends on the shear strength of soil, and the lateral resistance of soil toward the ground surface is weak because of the lack of confining pressure. This research carried out a series of model pile tests to understand the mechanical behaviors of single pile under lateral loading in soft clay, and to analyze which scope of treated soil around the pile foundation can increase the lateral resistance and reduce the horizontal displacement. The research compares the lateral properties of model piles in treated and untreated clays. The experimental results of the model pile tests in soft clay indicate that the treated area with the dimension of 6D~8D in width of square and 4D~6D in depth (where D is the diameter of pile) can achieve economical improvement effects in reducing the horizontal displacement of model piles. Under the condition of constant shape and volume with a cement content lower than 10％, it showed noticeable improvement effects in reducing the horizontal displacement of model piles. By using a small quantity of cement material to treat the soil in the vicinity of pile head can decrease the lateral displacement of the pile significantly.

ABSTRACT Pile Foundations are often used to bearing construction loading in many kinds of engineering, and it can transfer the loading directly to stiff layer or rock ground. But the lateral bearing capacity of pile is always smaller than its vertical bearing capacity. This research tended to improve the strength of soil surrounding the single pile to increase the lateral bearing capacity of pile. The research carried out a series of model pile tests, and tried to improve the shear strength of soil surrounding the pile by using cement, and compared the lateral displacement of model pile in treated and untreated soil. The experimental results of model pile in treated sand indicated that with the cement content of 3 percent and the treated area with 6D in width of square and 4D in depth (where D is the diameter of pile), it can achieve a well improvement effect in reducing the lateral displacement of pile for 58 percent, and increasing 0.5 times the lateral bearing capacity of pile of untreated sand. The local improvement of soil surrounding the pile can increase the lateral bearing capacity of pile, and reduce the lateral displacement of pile effectively in the lateral loading conditions.

Howell, Rachelle Lee. "The performance of lateral spread sites treated with prefabricated vertical drains : physical and numerical models". 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/2152/21776.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Drainage methods for liquefaction remediation have been in use since the 1970's and have traditionally included stone columns, gravel drains, and more recently prefabricated vertical drains. The traditional drainage techniques such as stone columns and gravel drains rely upon a combination of drainage and densification to mitigate liquefaction and thus, the improvement observed as a result of these techniques cannot be ascribed solely to drainage. Therefore, uncertainty exists as to the effectiveness of pure drainage, and there is some hesitancy among engineers to use newer drainage methods such as prefabricated vertical drains, which rely primarily on drainage rather than the combination of drainage and densification. Additionally, the design methods for prefabricated vertical drains are based on the design methods developed for stone columns and gravel drains even though the primary mechanisms for remediation are not the same. The objectives of this research are to use physical and numerical models to assess the effectiveness of drainage as a liquefaction remediation technique and to identify the controlling behavioral mechanisms that most influence the performance of sites treated with prefabricated vertical drains. In the first part of this research, a suite of three large-scale dynamic centrifuge tests of untreated and drain-treated sloping soil profiles was performed. Acceleration, pore pressure, and deformation data was used to evaluate the effectiveness of drainage in reducing liquefaction-induced lateral deformations. The results showed that the drains reduced the generated peak excess pore pressures and expedited the dissipated of pore water pressures both during and after shaking. The influence of the drains on the excess pore pressure response was found to be sensitive to the characteristics of the input motion. The drainage resulted in a 30 to 60% reduction in the horizontal deformations and a 20 to 60% reduction in the vertical settlements. In the second part of this research, the data and insights gained from the centrifuge tests was used to develop numerical models that can be used to investigate the factors that most influence the performance of untreated and drain-treated lateral spread sites. Finite element modeling was performed using the OpenSees platform. Three types of numerical models were developed - 2D infinite slope unit cell models of the area of influence around a single drain, 3D infinite slope unit cell models of the area of influence around a single drain, and a full 2D plane strain model of the centrifuge tests that included both the untreated and drain-treated slopes as well as the centrifuge container. There was a fairly good match between the experimental and simulated excess pore pressures. The unit cell models predicted larger horizontal deformations than were observed in the centrifuge tests because of the infinite slope geometry. Issues were identified with the constitutive model used to represent the liquefiable sand. These issues included a coefficient of volumetric compressibility that was too low and a sensitivity to low level accelerations when the stress path is near the failure surface. In the final part of this research, the simulated and experimental data was used to examine the relationship between the generated excess pore water pressures and the resulting horizontal deformations. It was found that the deformations are directly influenced by both the excess pore pressures and the intensity of shaking. There is an excess pore pressure threshold above which deformations begin to become significant. The horizontal deformations correlate well to the integral of the average excess pore pressure ratio-time history above this threshold. They also correlate well to the Arias intensity and cumulative absolute velocity intensity measures.text

A rare account by a foreigner working in Japan in the 20th century; a unique insight into this important period of Japan's history; complements existing material. First a student interpreter, then an assistant in Korea, Vice-Consul in Yokohama and Osaka, Consul in Nagasaki and Dairen, then Consul-General in Seoul, Osaka, Mukden and Tientsin. Not a contemporary diary as such, but a write-up of notes made towards the end of White's career spanning thirty-eight years. Importantly, it includes reflective passages on the momentous developments of the later 1930s, as Japan moved onto a war-footing in China - and as Consul-General in the Chinese treaty port of Tianjin under Japanese occupation, White was in the middle of the growing tensions between Britain and Japan. His post-war recollections are also valuable. Like others who had lived and worked in Japan, he sought to come to terms with what had happened to the country in which he had spent so much of his adult life. Along the way he provides fascinating vignettes of his colleagues, some well known, others less so, while his service in Seoul, Mukden (now Shenyang) and Tianjin provides fresh material on the Japanese colonial empire.

Recent advances in sequencing technologies have dramatically expanded the number of genes associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, including rare but highly penetrant causative mutations as well as common risk alleles. This chapter discusses these gene discoveries and how they have implicated a diverse array of biological pathways essential for motor neuron health and have begun to inform our understanding of ALS pathogenesis as a heterogeneous and multistep process.

This chapter examines the Indus Waters Treaty’s problematic reputation for symbolising India–Pakistan cooperation. Even though the treaty failed to resolve broader geoplitical tensions in South Asia, the principle of river basin-scale negotiations reappeared in American and World Bank proposals for resolving an India–Pakistan dispute over the Farakka Barrage on the River Ganges in West Bengal and East Pakistan during the later 1960s and 1970s. The spectacular failure of basin-scale negotiation in Bengal, due to Indian policy-makers’ determination not to “compromise” their river-development plans in the face of external pressure, contrasted with the relative success of negotiations over the Indus Basin. The strange afterlife of the Indus Waters Treaty, in which Indian politicians used it as a warning against further cooperation, further demonstrated its historical peculiarity. The treaty is not a model for improving bilateral relations.

This chapter analyses the partition of the African continent via treaties. It begins with an introductory examination of pre-nineteenth-century European–African treaty-making and references some classic writers to Africa. It then discusses relevant documents on the ‘scramble’ for titles to African territory. These demonstrate the extent to which normal institutions of the law of nations as originally applied to European–African relations degenerated into instruments of colonial penetration in the second half of the nineteenth century, particularly after the Berlin Conference of 1884–85, which led to a multilaterally conceived plan of partition of the whole continent. Partition took place in two phases, i.e. the transfer of legal titles to territory from the African transferor to the European transferee wherein the ruler still played an active part, and then the absorption of territory by annexation. Effective occupation by the Europeans usually came much later than the acquisition of legal title.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
International law regime of conflicts between treaties is obtained by combining the principles of the succession of treaties over time (the later treaty abrogates the earlier one) and the principle concerning the effects of treaties on third-party States (Pacta tertiis neque nocent neque prosunt). In fact, conflicts between treaties are not frequent as states prefer to negotiate in order to avoid them. Most of the time, negotiations lead to the inclusion in a treaty of declarations of ‘compatibility’ or ‘subordination’ with another or a series of other treaties. Some of them are analysed in this chapter.

This book examines the treaties that promised self-government, financial assistance, cultural protections, and land to the more than 565 tribes of North America (including Alaska, Hawaii, and Canada). Prior to contact with Europeans and, later, Americans, American Indian treaties assumed unique dimensions, often involving lengthy ceremonial meetings during which gifts were exchanged. Europeans and Americans would irrevocably alter the ways in which treaties were negotiated: for example, treaties no longer constituted oral agreements but rather written documents, though both parties generally lacked understanding of the other's culture. The political consequences of treaty negotiations continue to define the legal status of the more than 565 federally recognized tribes today. These and other aspects of treaty-making will be explored in this single-volume work, which serves to fill a gap in the study of both American history and Native American history. The history of treaty making covers a wide historical swath dating from the earliest treaty in 1788 to latest one negotiated in 1917. Despite the end of formal treaties largely by the end of the 19th century, Native relations with the federal government continued on with the move to reservations and later formal land allotment under the Dawes Act of 1887.

This chapter analyzes the purposes that American officials ascribe to investor–state arbitration in their investment treaties, using internal documents from all pre-NAFTA American investment treaty negotiations. Officials drafting the initial US model treaty in the late 1970s saw ISDS as a narrow tool to protect investment, but a decade later, it was reimagined as a way to lock in domestic liberalization reforms in former Soviet or Latin American states. Similarly, the American investment treaty program was not intended to facilitate outward investments, but rhetoric has changed: in the early 1990s, additional investment was implied to treaty partners, before and after these years officials noted that treaties and ISDS do not necessarily lead to additional investment. Finally, while access to arbitration became a pillar of American policy, at first investor access to ICSID caused the State Department frustration and endangered US strategic interests.

AbstractConsider the following case. An investor is building an apartment complex. Halfway into developing this multi-million-ducat investment, a government department starts demanding bribes, which is business as usual for it. The investor initially resists, but eventually caves in. Years later, the host state seeks to use the investor’s participation in this corruption against it in an investment-treaty arbitration. The applicable investment treaty stipulates that only lawfully made investments are protected, with the result that the investor must fail. Any arbitral tribunal would be uncomfortable with this outcome. The degree of wrongfulness of the investor’s conduct pales in comparison to the host state's, noting that the host state has let many of its governmental departments become dens of corruption. But the arbitral tribunal’s hands are apparently tied. The terms of the applicable investment treaty are clear: the investor's claim must be denied, with an asymmetric outcome that effectively benefits the state. This chapter unties arbitral tribunals’ hands. It lays down another path for these tribunals to follow in such cases, one which avoids this outcome, yet remains honest to the tenets of international investment law.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractThailand’s economy has developed strongly by consistently attracting foreign investment especially since the 1980s, despite political upheavals and persistent corruption amidst ongoing challenges. It has also expanded the numbers and scope of its investment treaties, including more options for investor–state dispute settlement arbitrations to enforce substantive commitments to foreign investors, resulting in a few treaty-based arbitrations as well as some contract-based arbitrations involving foreign investors. A few, and possibly the Kingsgate v. Thailand claim under the Thailand–Australia Free Trade Agreement since 2017, have involved allegations and investigations concerning corruption and other serious illegal behaviour. As reiterated in the conclusion, corruption investigations and court proceedings are necessarily very lengthy, sometimes more so than the time taken to generate and enforce final awards in large (especially treaty-based) investment arbitrations. To reduce the consequent risk of enforcing an award that later proves to be based on seriously corrupt conduct, one solution may be for investment treaty arbitrators to apply the same higher standard of proof that corruption investigators and criminal courts need to apply, although this will mean more delays and perhaps costs in arbitration. Secondly, more transparency could be added to Thailand-related investment arbitration proceedings, so that the public at least knows that corruption is being alleged.

Abstract Horizontal wells drilled in Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) targeting tight carbonate Mishref reservoir in West Kuwait Minagish development fields provided increased reservoir contact area leading to higher production rate and wider access to available hydrocarbon reserves. Large wellbore radius in these open hole horizontal laterals have resulted in increased friction losses during production phase. Later, with flow equalizing completion techniques, ultimate recovery from the reservoir increased and stable production was achieved during the early phase of the reservoir. However, accessing these long horizontal laterals was a challenge and coiled tubing acidizing treatments helped achieve permeability improvements only upto a certain extent. Majority of the reservoir sections with lower permeability were unaccessed and left untreated. Limited pumping rates through coil tubing could achieve few inches of radial penetration into the formation due to limited amount of acid dosage in the stimulation design. It has also been observed that bullheading treated only the heel section of the horizontal well, especially in the case of carbonate formation where acid stimulation is considered for productivity improvement. Studies carried out via Production and Temperature logging concluded that large sections of the open hole lateral were not contributing to the production due to inefficient distribution of acid across the lateral. Hence there was a need for a completion system which could target those unaccessed, relatively low permeable and untreated zones by providing positive mechanical diversion. With this completion technology, formation treating fluids can be pumped effectively and at maximum desired rates. As a part of the ongoing production strategy, Open Hole Multistage Completion (OHMSC) systems consisting of multiple frac sleeves flanked by open hole packers were deployed in multiple appraisal wells and achieved higher productivity in reduced time. This paper will present details on challenges encountered during wellbore preparation and techniques implemented to deploy OHMSC system in Minagish field. The lessons learnt after executing the project and performance improvement to encounter more challenging reservoir and hole conditions in future are discussed in detail.

The study deals with this particular form of the career choice decision along the lines of the career motivation of military officers entering the military in the 1980s. In the course of our research, we conducted life course interviews with ten former military officers, whose processing was carried out with the help of the identification of typologizable patterns of behavior in the given life situation. The majority of young people who choose a military career are already attracted to this profession in their elementary school years. However, another part of them only becomes interested in it much later, towards the end of high school. The background of early identification and pattern can often be a pattern carried by family or other close relatives, childhood book or film experiences. In such cases, the young person usually feels an attraction to certain external signs of identity (uniform, weapons).. Before the regime change, however, the social benefit of the career was a particularly important objective factor when choosing a career, as the military career functioned as a social mobility factor with its help.

Resumen: La actitud de Le Corbusier respecto a la superfície epidérmica de sus edifícios cambió en los años 20, cuando se percató de los problemas producidos al construir membranas de escaso espesor con amplias zonas acristaladas. Durante la década de 30, Le Corbusier trabajaba principalmente en países cálidos, y la invención del brise-soleil parecía ser la respuesta a los problemas de ganancia de calor. El brise en la obra de Le Corbusier jugó dos funciones importantes: una como elemento de adaptación al clima y la otra como elemento de composición de fachada. El objectivo del trabajo es rescatar la importancia que Le Corbusier daba a este elemento, para tanto aborda la evolución y la transformación del brise-soleil, en su propia obra. La metodologia del trabajo consiste en analisar las obras elegidas por su relevância en el tema desde un punto de vista medioambiental con base en los estudios de Almodovar, D. Siret y Requena, teniendo en cuenta la orientación y la protección solar en los solsticios de invierno y verano (Le Corbusier defendió que por lo menos hubieran dos horas de penetración solar en el invierno). Del mismo modo, desde el punto de vista arquitectónico se consideran aspectos como la forma arquitectónica, la integración al conjunto, la inserción en la fachada y la importancia en la composición. Abstract: Le Corbusier attitude on the epidermal surface of buildings changes when he realises, in the 1920s, that the problems caused by membranes of insufficient thick with large glazed areas. During the 1930s decade, Le Corbusier worked mainly in warm countries, and the invention of the brise-soleil seemed to be the answer to the problems of heat gain. The brise-soleil, in the work of Le Corbusier, played two important roles: one as an element of adaptation to the climate and the other as an element of composition of facade. The aim of this paper is to rescue the importance that Le Corbusier gave to this element, so it treats the evolution and transformation of the brise-soleil, in his own work. The methodology of the work consists of an analysis of works chosen for their relevance on the issue from an environmental point of view, based on the studies of Almodovar, D. Siret and Requena, considering the solar orientation and solar shading in the winter and summer solstice (Le Corbusier argued that there were at least two hours of solar penetration in winter). In the same way, from the architectural point of view, it treats aspects such as the architectural form, integration in the whole, insert on the facade and compositional importance.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The design of rigid submarine pipelines has been the object of extensive research work over the last few years, where the most relevant issues include upheaval and lateral buckling problems. Both of these problems systematically associate temperature and pressure loads, where the treatment of the first is obvious, while the latter have always been a matter of discussion. In 1974 Palmer and Baldry [1] presented a theoretical-experimental contribution, in which they have set a pattern that has been followed ever since. Another similar and well known paper was published by Sparks in 1983 [7], who only present a physical interpretation of this same theory. Most of the present day industry codes define an effective axial force, according to which, fixed end pipelines will be under compression due to internal pressure. The starting point of the discussion presented in [1] was that internal pressure produces a lateral force, which is numerically equal to the pressure times internal cross-sectional area times the pipeline curvature: q=p.Ai.d2y/dx2(1) This equation is demonstrated further ahead in this paper. Palmer and Baldry then based their arguments on the traditional equation of the pinned column buckling problem, studied by Euler [2]: EId4y/dx4+Pd2y/dx2=0(2) for which the well known solution is: P=π2EI/L2(3) and on the associated problem studied by Timoshenko [3], which adds a distributed lateral load q to the same problem: EId4y/dx4+Pd2y/dx2=q(4) Replacing q with the lateral pressure given above, they were able to have their own problem fall back onto the Euler solution: EId4y/dx4+Pd2y/dx2=p.Ai.d2y/dx2P-pAi=π2EI/L2(5) After correcting for the Poisson effect they were able to determine the new critical axial force caused by the pressure. Unfortunately, however, the arguments set forth in [1] have been misunderstood. The fact that both axial force and lateral force multiply curvature does not make them forces of the same nature. Being able to add them has solved a mathematical equation, but still hasn’t converted the lateral force to axial. The authors wish to prove that [1] presents no more than a tool, which can be used in the analysis of global buckling problems of pipelines subject to both temperature and pressure. It will be shown, however, that this pressure will not produce an axial force, as now-a-days prescribed conservatively in many pipeline codes, which is even used for stress checking.

Abstract The coupled dynamic response of two cooperating robots handling two flexible payloads for the purpose of fixtureless assembly and manufacturing is treated using a new algorithm. In this algorithm, the equations describing the dynamics of the system are obtained using Lagrange’s method for the rigid robot links and the finite element method for the flexible payloads. A new time integration scheme is developed to treat the coupled equations of motion of the rigid links for a given displacement of the flexible payloads. The finite element equations of the flexible payloads are then treated using an implicit approach. The new algorithm was verified using simplified examples and was later used to examine the dynamic response of two cooperating robot arms manipulating flexible payloads which are typical of the automotive industry.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Recently there has been increased interest in the use of flow diverting devices to treat intracranial aneurysms. The goal is to deviate the blood flow away from the aneurysm and promote its thrombosis and exclusion from the circulation. This therapy is mostly considered for large, geometrically complex, wide necked, unruptured aneurysms that are difficult or impossible to coil or clip. Recent trials using flow diverting stents have shown promising results [1]. However, little is known about the possible complications of these procedures. This paper presents a hemodynamic study of a cerebral aneurysm that was treated with a flow diverting stent and ruptured a few days later.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Transient Reactor Test (TREAT) Facility, located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), is a versatile test facility able to subject experimental specimens to various transient nuclear conditions. TREAT was placed in standby after operating from February 1959 through April 1994, resulting in the loss of nearly all transient testing capability in the United States. Recently, the US Department of Energy (DOE) determined this capability was again needed. After DOE completed National Environmental Policy Act actions in February 2014, INL established the Resumption of Transient Testing Program (RTTP). RTTP was a multi-year effort to restart TREAT to reestablish a domestic transient testing capability. After 23 years of standby operations, the RTTP completed restart activities on August 31, 2017, 13 months ahead of schedule and nearly $20 million under budget. RTTP activities included an Environmental Assessment that resulted in a Finding of “No Significant Impact” associated with restarting TREAT, establishment of a compliant Safety Analysis Report (SAR), refurbishment and/or replacement of key reactor systems and components, key system knowledge recovery, reestablishment of configuration management, procedure updates, personnel training and qualification, and demonstration of operational readiness for reactor operations. Several noteworthy factors that contributed to the restart of TREAT include: • Funding to acquire personnel and material resources provided in a timely fashion. • Close coordination with the regulator’s (DOE) nuclear safety program during updates, interactive review, and approval of safety documentation provided for timely update of the TREAT SAR and implementing documents. • Effective management control enabled by utilization of standard outage management techniques with a focus on age-related degradation and updated standards and requirements. • DOE program management ensured efficient implementation of program management tools. These tools focused on clear high-level milestones and spend plans allowing flexibility for the contractor to respond to evolving facility conditions and information in a near-real time manner and with minimal program overhead. This approach enabled efficient execution of work in an environment where determination of required work scope was dependent on performance of inspection, testing, analysis, and evaluation activities. • Implementation of the Contractor Assurance System, with frequent internal and externally-led assessments that facilitated process improvements and corrective actions to ensure the operational readiness for required contractor and DOE readiness assessments and safe nuclear operations. • The RTTP benefited from archived plant documentation and maintenance performed while the plant was in a safe-standby status. • Unique methods of reactivity control allowed for individual and integrated reactor system functional testing, procedure vetting, and personnel training while maintaining the reactor in a safe state.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Free Trade Agreements (FTA) attract significant interest, but after these treaties are signed not all exporters use them. We provide a model of heterogeneous utilization, also developing a novel method to estimate treaty-utilization costs. We later apply the model to estimate the evolution utilization costs for the FTA between the US and a small open economy, Chile. Consistent with other studies, we find that utilization is indeed partial (on average 67% on the first year of the treaty, with 10 percentage points more at the third year). This made tariff revenues to the US 10% higher than expected with full utilization. Our simple structural model identifies costs by exploiting the indifference condition for the smallest firm that uses the treaty. Empirically we find that estimated costs were very heterogeneous across products. For almost half the products the cost was not binding for any exporter. However, when the FTA started, the 75-th percentile of utilization cost was around US$3,000, requiring shipments above $80,000 to justify using the treaty. These costs decreased by 60-80% in the following years, consistent with models of learning about treaty use. As remarked in our model, small exporters that do not use the trade agreement could even suffer when large firms have the option of using the treaty, since the latter increase exports and may push up factor prices for the industry.

On 1 July 2000 regulations to liberalize trade flows between Mexico and the European Union came into force, after more than six years of diplomatic work and complex negotiations. These regulations are part of the ¿Tratado de Libre Comercio (TLCUEM), which is also one of the components of the Agreement on Economic Association, Political Concertation and Cooperation (¿Global Agreement¿). The Global Agreement through its three components ¿ political dialogue, trade liberalization and cooperation- was at the time the most ambitious agreement ever constituted by the EU. The economic association component included in the Global Agreement ¿ the TLCUEM- was the first overseas free trade treaty and served as an important precedent for later EU negotiations with other Latin American countries. The purpose of this essay is to analyze the reasons that led Mexico and the EU to the constitution of this treaty; to describe the main challenges of the Global Agreement negotiations of different components; and to briefly review the results of the first three years since the TLCUEM enforcement.

Function Sparing Conservative Approach of a Low-Grade Chondrosarcoma of the Larynx: Case Report and Literature Review. Science Repository, marzo 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.31487/j.scr.2024.01.04.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Background: Laryngeal cancer is relatively uncommon in Ecuador. Usually epithelial in origin, the most frequent histological type is squamous cell carcinoma. The most common mesenchymal tumor is chondrosarcoma. Most laryngeal chondrosarcomas are treated with total laryngectomy, but a conservative function sparing resection is recommended in low-grade limited tumors. Case Report: In a 68-year-old female nonsmoker patient, a small tumor was found in the posterior left aspect of the cricoid cartilage in a computed tomography (CT) performed immediately after an unexpected difficulty to pass the endotracheal tube for a thoracoscopic biopsy of 4 cm tumor of the left lung, in another hospital. The patient underwent, then, an initial tracheostomy, a total thyroidectomy for a goiter and a biopsy of the tumor of the cricoid cartilage whose pathological study was inconclusive. One month later, a low-grade neuroendocrine pulmonary tumor was completed resected. Two years later, a CT scan showed the cricoid lesion with the same characteristics. At endoscopic video laryngoscopy, two subglottic masses that narrowed the airway in approximately 60% of the normal caliber, were observed located at the posterior and left walls. An intraluminal resection was performed through a transcricoid anterior approach. The pathological diagnosis was a low-grade chondrosarcoma. Tracheal decannulation was performed one month later. At an endoscopic video laryngoscopy performed six months post-operatively, the tracheal caliber and mucosa were normal. The patient remained with normal voice and breathing.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Oxytocin has multiple actions in bovine reproductive tract and it was our purpose to determine the nature of these actions and their significance for the physiology of bovine reproduction. The bovine oxytocin receptors (OTR) gene was cloned and its expression studied during the cycle and pregnancy. OTR mRNA changed in parallel with OTR with control occurring mainly at the transcriptional level. However, the endocrine regulation of OTR were found in endometrium and cervical mucosa at estrus and at parturition. In both tissues OTR were suppressed in the luteal phase and early pregnancy. Whereas cervical OTR remained suppressed throughout pregnancy, endometrial OTR began to increase soon after implantation and reached higher concentrations in midpregnancy than at estrus. OTR in caruncles did not increase until third trimester, and OTR in cervical mucosa, cotyledons and fetal membranes increased only at term. Myometrial OTR showed less variation and OTR were present throughout the cycle and pregnancy but increased significantly during mid- and late pregnancy. OTR were localized in endometrial epithelial cells and lumina epithelial cells of cervical mucosa as determined by immunohistochemistry. Endometrial OTR were functional throughout pregnancy and mediated PGF release from day 50 onwards in a receptor density related manner. OTR in cervical mucosa mediated PGE release both in vivo and in vitro, as shown in cyclic cows. The ontogeny of uterine OTR was studied from third trimester fetal stage until puberty. OTR were present in endometrium and cervical mucosa in high concentrations throughout this period; myometrial OTR began to increase somewhat later but also reached adult values by 6-mo of age. In the prepuberal heifers OT injections failed to initiate PGF2a, release. The influence of steroids on the effect of OT was examined. Ovariectomy and E2 were without effect, but P4 with or without E2 induced a massive PGF2a release in response to OT in spite of reduced OTR. Bovine cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2) were cloned and their expression studied in the endometrium of prepuberal heifers and pregnant cows. Untreated and E2 treated prepuberal heifers did not express COX-2 but P4 treated heifers did express the mRNA for COX-2, albeit weakly. During the second half of pregnancy COX-2 mRNA was strongly expressed in cotyledons and somewhat less in caruncles, whereas endometrium, myometrium and cervical mucosa showed only weak, if any, COX-2 mRNA under basal conditions. However, 2 h after OT injection significant increases in COX-2 mRNA were found in endometrial RNA. Thus OT is capable of inducing the expression of the inducible COX-2 gene, and hence the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostanoids. The results indicate that the functions of OT are numerous and probably essential for successful pregnancy and parturition.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Citrus fruit quality standards have been determined empirically, depending on species and on the particular growing regions. In general, the TSS (total soluble solids) to total acidity (TA) ratio determines whether citrus fruit can be marketed. Soluble sugars account for most of the TSS during harvest while TA is determined almost solely by the citric acid content, which reaches levels of 1-5% by weight in many cultivated varieties. Acid and sugar homeostasis in the fruit is critical for the management of existing cultivars, the development of new cultivars, the improvement of pre- and post-harvest strategies and the control of fruit quality and disorders. The current proposal (a continuation of a previous proposal) aimed at: (1) completing the citrus fruit proteome and metabolome, and establish a citrus fruit functional database, (2) further characterization of the control of fruit acidity by studying the regulation of key steps affecting citrate metabolism, and determine the fate of citrate during acid decline stage, and (3) Studying acid and sugar homeostasis in citrus fruits by characterizing transport mechanisms across membranes. These aims were completed as the following: (1) Our initial efforts were aimed at the characterization and identification of citric acid transporters in citrus juice cells. The identification of citrate transporters at the vacuole of the citrus juice cell indicated that the steady-state citrate cytosolic concentration and the action of the cytosolic aconitase were key elements in establishing the pH homeostat in the cell that regulates the metabolic shift towards carbon usage in the fruit during the later stages of fruit development. We focused on the action of aconitase, the enzyme mediating the metabolic use of citric acid in the cells, and identified processes that control carbon fluxes in developing citrus fruits that control the fruit acid load; (2) The regulation of aconitase, catalyzing a key step in citrate metabolism, was further characterized by using two inhibitors, citramalte and oxalomalte. These compounds significantly increased citrate content and reduced the enzyme’s activity. Metabolite profiling and changes of amino-acid metabolizing enzymes in oxalomalate- treated cells suggested that the increase in citrate, caused by aconitase inhibition, induces amino acid synthesis and the GABA shunt, in accordance with the suggested fate of citrate during the acid decline stage in citrus fruit. (3) We have placed a considerable amount of time on the development of a citrus fruit proteome that will serve to identify all of the proteins in the juice cells and will also serve as an aid to the genomics efforts of the citrus research community (validating the annotation of the fruit genes and the different ESTs). Initially, we identified more than 2,500 specific fruit proteins and were able to assign a function to more than 2,100 proteins (Katz et al., 2007). We have now developed a novel Differential Quantitative LC-MS/MS Proteomics Methodology for the identification and quantitation of key biochemical pathways in fruits (Katz et al., 2010) and applied this methodology to identify determinants of key traits for fruit quality (Katz et al., 2011). We built “biosynthesis maps” that will aid in defining key pathways associated with the development of key fruit quality traits. In addition, we constructed iCitrus (http://wiki.bioinformatics.ucdavis.edu/index.php/ICitrus), a “functional database” that is essentially a web interface to a look-up table that allows users to use functional annotations in the web to identify poorly annotated citrus proteins. This resource will serve as a tool for growers and field extension specialists.
