As human beings develop physically, cognitively, emotionally, morally, technologically, and spiritually, so they develop vices which are moral depravity, moral fault, and/or a habitual trivial shortcoming. These vices such as biting, fornication, lying, gluttony, greed, jealousy, stealing etc. develop at different developmental milestones of a nature-nurture interaction and as early as from infancy from underlying normal behaviors. It is theorized that if the behaviors that may lead to vices are well managed, they may become virtues. However, if one skips these developments in early childhood, it might catch up with one in adulthood where the struggle to overcome the vice may become sterner. This theory of human developmental vices may be important in understanding human negative behaviors and in promoting healthy parenting as well as understanding the individual differences inherent in each child response style as it interplays between nature and nurture. Researchers are challenged to empirically investigate this theory

AbstractIn the face of some people's naive enthusiasm about the benefits of humor, Victor Raskin (Is humor always good for you?, Oklahoma, 1997) has explored the question “Is humor always good for you?” Rod Martin (Psychological Bulletin 12: 504–519, 2001) has shown how some kinds of humor foster unhealthy attitudes. Avner Ziv (Humor research in education: Enthusiasm vs. data, 1995) has warned that some claims about humor's value in education are exaggerated. Elliott Oring (Engaging humor, University of Illinois Press, 2003: Ch. 4) has shown how humor can express ethnic hatred. All these caveats are useful in a culture where the prevailing attitude toward humor is positive. If we consider attitudes toward humor through most of history, however, they were mostly negative. In Western religion and philosophy, indeed, no other human trait has been associated with so many vices. This article helps explain the cultural shift from a generally negative to a generally positive evaluation of humor by examining the traditional moral objections to humor, and providing modern rebuttals to them. It then develops the idea that humor in which we transcend our personal perspectives can foster virtues such as openmindedness, patience, tolerance, graciousness, humility, perseverance, and courage.

The article reflects one of the most important and acute problems of mankind at all times, which are expressed in the manifestation of vices, such as cowardice, meanness, hypocrisy, lies, betrayal, greed, etc. A feature of the expression of human nature is the presence of a duality of categories, special attention is paid to the fact that each person decides for himself which path to take, the path of honesty or the path of lies. On the example of the perfect deeds of the heroes of the novel, the article provides examples of the expression of these very vices of human nature in all its glory. It is interesting to reflect the theme of the depravity of society in a satirical manner of presenting the novel. Human society appears before us as mired in vices, doomed society, the only way to redeem which is only the application of punishment.

The article is a publication of scientific and methodical character. The article is devoted to the preparation of a virtual experiment of milling processing of a complex profile part, which is installed in a fractal vice. It was determined that fractal vices are presented on the technological equipment market in a very limited range. At the same time, the cost of fractal vices is unreasonably high. The cost is commensurate with the cost of the milling machine itself. However, modeling the processing of a part mounted in a fractal vise is of considerable academic interest. Fractal vices use Pascal's law on the plane (with some assumptions). The mathematical model proposed earlier was further developed. The model is flat and consists of a system of three differential equations of the second order. The equations describe plane-parallel and torsional movements of the part. Selected main parameters and their recommended values for the mathematical model of the processing process. At this stage, the main goal of the virtual experiment is to compare the set and real trajectories of the milling cutter. Also, the goal is to analyze the influence of parameters of elastic-damping elements, clamping force, etc. on the result. A matrix of options for conducting a virtual experiment is proposed. The matrix provides a large number of possible movements of the cutter relative to the part (simple, complex, locked, unlocked). It was determined that the matrix of options allowsfor a large number of possible processing options. From this set, several options are selected, the most suitable for further modeling and comparison with the results of a natural experiment. It is believed that the technological system "machine –vice –tool –workpiece" is a closed dynamic system with negative feedback. However, it is necessary to investigate the behavior of the system without feed-back and compare it with the rest of the experiments

Intellectual servility is a vice opposing proper pride about one’s intellectual achievements. Intellectual timidity is also a vice; it is manifested in a lack of proper concern for others’ esteem. This paper offers an account of the nature of these vices and details some of the epistemic harms that flow from them. I argue that servility, which is often the result of suffering humiliation, is a form of damaged self-esteem. It is underpinned by attitudes serving social-adjustive functions and causes ingratiating behaviors. Timidity, which is habituated through self-silencing, is underpinned by negative attitudes toward the intellectual worth of the self, which serve a defensive function. Like servility, timidity is an obstacle to the acquisition and transmission of knowledge and especially knowledge about oneself.

ABSTRACTThis paper introduces the concept of ‘epistemic corruption’ and applies it to current debates about the negative effects of education on the epistemic character of students. Epistemic corruption occurs when an agent comes to develop or exercise one or more epistemic vices due their interaction with a social environment. The phenomenon of epistemic corruption is especially important given modern enthusiasm, among virtue epistemologists and others, for the claim that education should aim to enhance the epistemic character of students by cultivating their epistemic virtues. After presenting a working account of the concept of epistemic corruption, three case studies are offered that document epistemically corrupting educational practices and policies. I conclude that study of the forms, practices, and effects of epistemic corruption should be an important dimension of virtue and vice epistemology.

The goal of this paper is to bring to light an adequate understanding of the concepts of "making waves," to capture the minds of parents, students, and other members of society, on how education and technology can help to excel, and to educate one on the negative effects of social vices on the environment. However, the benefits of education and technology to both individuals and society were examined as a catalyst for social and economic sustainability. Hence, education and technology have been unraveled as a medium for achieving sustainable development when youths strive for excellence in their academic pursuits and eschew vices. The paper looked at technology and its emergence in the twenty-first century, how to make waves through digitalisation, the importance of digital education in Nigerian schools, challenges to the digitalisation of education in Nigeria, and ways to strive for excellence. This paper suggested, among others, that government should sufficiently fund education from the primary to the high school levels. Drugs, sex abuse, cults, and other vices must be rejected by every member of the community. A decrease in the number of children who are not in school must also be ensured by the government at all levels of the nation, along with provisions for the necessary infrastructure, learning, and teaching tools.

Vote trading among lawmakers (logrolling) can enable political rent-seeking but is difficult to identify. To achieve identification, we explore the rules governing voting for railway projects in the U.K. Parliament during the Railway Mania of the 1840s. Parliamentary rules barred MPs from voting directly for their interests. Even so, they could trade votes to ensure their interests prevailed. We find that logrolling was significant, accounting for nearly one-quarter of the railway bills approved. We also quantify a negative externality to society from logrolling ranging from 1/3 to 1 percent of contemporary GDP.

Judith Shklar’s liberalism of fear is distinct from other liberalisms; it gains its unique imprint and quality through a long and consistent engagement with, and critical discussion of, republicanism. Her account of the contemporary relevance of notions of virtues and vices, justice and injustice, the questions of rights, representation, citizenship and democracy all point to older republican influences. However, Shklar also knew that unreconstructed republicanism and republican ideas of the virtuous life were no longer applicable to modern societal and political conditions. This becomes especially clear in her discussion of Rousseau and in her study Ordinary Vices. The irreducibly pluralist and individualist nature of modern democracy have made it inconceivable that we would all agree on what the virtuous life consists in. Shklar’s emphasis on positive liberty, critically directed against Isaiah Berlin’s argument that negative rights and negative liberty are at the heart of modern liberalism; her insistence on the need for a common spirit as distilled in her study of Montesquieu; the need for equality in terms of voting and earning as stressed in American Citizenship; and finally her discussion of the changing nature of both loyalty and political obligation in her last Harvard lectures, are all indicative of the republican elements that can be detected in her barebones liberalism.

In this chapter, I want to accomplish two main tasks. First, I want to outline Smith's views on the marketplace and its potential to contribute to the erosion of both natural sympathy and social virtue as well as his suggestions for how these negative effects can and should be mitigated. Second, I want to supplement Smith's suggestions for the latter by contrasting his views on sympathy and virtue with Jean-Jacques Rousseau's views on compassion and virtue as they are developed in his Emile or On Education. In particular, I want to supplement Smith’s suggestions by contrasting his view that self-interest must be tempered by sympathy and virtue with Rousseau's view that self-interest or, more precisely, amour-propre must be sublimated into compassion and virtue through a process of careful habituation, and then by indicating how Rousseau’s view on the latter might impact Smith's vision of proper education.

Market skeptics have persuasively argued that the market is a social arena that is not simply amoral but that has negative moral consequences. Market apologists have offered two basic responses to this kind of charge: that the market is amoral, and that it transforms private vice into public virtue. This chapter discusses the moral teachings of the market—that is, the moral sentiments individuals are likely to acquire and develop as they engage in the market. Relying on Adam Smith’s discussions of the “impartial spectator,” that imaginary figure that each of us constructs to offer us moral guidance as we negotiate our lives, it is argued that there are good reasons to believe that our impartial spectators might be changed by our dealings in the market. Rather than celebrating selfishness and greed, the market tends to punish both vices. While the market is unlikely to promote the traditional virtues in the form that they are promoted in other contexts, the market is a moral teacher that rewards and so encourages virtuous behavior.

AbstractHumility is often defined by what it is not; as the antithesis to various vices such as pride, arrogance, conceit, or vanity. This negative definition leaves open the possibility of some underlying characteristic or trait that influences the formation of this virtue. Homo amans lays out the classic theological triad of faith, hope, and love as a natural inclination in humanity. This chapter explores one aspect of this triad, love, as a possible underlying characteristic or trait that uniquely informs the formation of the virtue of humility: specifically, love as altruistic concern for the other that puts them ahead or before the self. Contemporary psychological studies of humility demonstrate a connection between this virtue and altruistic concern for the other. Altruistic concern becomes a part of moral schemas that greatly influence moral behavior and are the basis for the development of moral identity. Holocaust rescuers demonstrate that moral schemas, which contain altruistic concern as a primary component of their view of the world, cultivate a moral identity that makes rescuing a consequence of their self-identity and naturally leads to humility about their actions.

AbstractResearch demonstrates that positive emotions contribute to students’ greater engagement with the learning experience, while negative emotions may detract from the learning experience. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a computer-based training program on the emotional status and its effect on the performance of two students with learning difficulties: a second-grade student of a primary school with Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome and a fourth-grade student of a primary school with learning difficulties. For the purpose of this study, the “BrainHQ” web-based cognitive training software and the mobile app “AffectLecture” were used. The former was used for measuring the affective state of the students before and after each intervention. The latter was used for improving students’ cognitive development, in order to evaluate the possible improvement of their initial emotional status after the intervention with “BrainHQ” program, the possible effect of positive/negative emotional status on their performance, as well as the possible effect of high/poor performance on their emotional status. The results of the study demonstrate that there is a positive effect of emotion on performance and vice versa and the positive effect of performance on the emotional status and vice versa. These findings suggest that the affective state of students should be taken into account by educators, scholars and policymakers.

AbstractThis chapter looks at the effect of corruption on foreign direct investment (FDI) at the world and regional levels, with a focus on East, South and Southeast Asia. The academic literature is inconclusive because the nature of corruption can be different from one country to another and because various other factors can decide whether a foreign company will invest in a country or region despite a relatively high level of corruption. To shed light on the effect of corruption, the authors proceed to a paneleconometrics investigation that assesses the relationship between the stock of FDI and the‘control of corruption’, published by the World Bank, for a sample of 180 countries over the period 2002–2019. The‘control of corruption’ index combines 23 different assessments and surveys capturing perceptions of the extent to which public power is exercised for private gains. A low score means that the authorities do not fight corruption or are not effective in fighting it, and therefore corruption is high; and vice versa. The authors include two control variables (real GDP and secondary school enrolment) to better estimate the specific role of corruption. Their results show that at the world level, thecontrol of corruption is low and has a positive effect on FDI, which means that corruption is a stimulus to FDI, in line with Egger and Winner's findings. However, in East Asia, Southeast Asia, Australiaand New Zealand, corruption has a ‘grabbing hand’ effect. In theEuropean Union, corruption is a helping hand. The authors’ results confirm the importance of a regional approach to the analysis of the effect of corruption on FDI.

The importance of the Word of Mouth is growing day by day in many topics. This phenomenon is evident in everyday life, e.g., the rise of influencers and social media managers. If more people positively debate specific products, then even more people are encouraged to buy them and vice versa. This effect is directly affected by the relationship between the potential customer and the reviewer. Moreover, considering the negative reporting bias is evident in how the Word of Mouth analysis is of absolute interest in many fields. We propose an algorithm to extract the sentiment from a natural language text corpus. The combined approach of Neural Networks, with high predictive power but more challenging interpretation, with more simple but informative models, allows us to quantify a sentiment with a numeric value and to predict if a sentence has a positive (negative) sentiment. The assessment of an objective quantity improves the interpretation of the results in many fields. For example, it is possible to identify crucial specific sectors that require intervention, improving the company's services whilst finding the strengths of the company himself (useful for advertising campaigns). Moreover, considering that the time information is usually available in textual data with a web origin, to analyze trends on macro/micro topics. After showing how to properly reduce the dimensionality of the textual data with a data-cleaning phase, we show how to combine: WordEmbedding, K-Means clustering, SentiWordNet, and the Threshold-based Naïve Bayes classifier. We apply this method to Booking.com and TripAdvisor.com data, analyzing the sentiment of people who discuss a particular issue, providing an example of customer satisfaction.

AbstractSuspended particle and bed-load transport are usually high during flooding events. For that reason, sediment transport is an important feature to be taken into account when studying floods. Measures that aim to mitigate the negative impacts of floods depend on such studies. Sediment transport phenomena are complex due to their coupling behavior with fluid flow. Due to the erosion and sedimentation of particulate matter, the ground surface changes during the passing of a flood. The courses of unregulated rivers and wadis after floods are different than those before floods. Flowing water transports sediments, and vice versa; sediment redistribution affects the flow of water due to changes in the ground surface and other factors. Computer simulations of sediment transport must take the coupling between water flow and transport processes into account. Here, a multiphysics approach in such a coupled model is presented. Shallow water equations (SWE) representing water height and velocity are coupled with equations for suspended particulate matter and bed loads. Using COMSOL Multiphysics software, an implementation is presented that demonstrates the capability and feasibility of the proposed approach. The approach is applied to the problems of scouring and sedimentation at obstacles, which are particularly important for ensuring the stability of bridges across rivers and wadis.

AbstractHigh lesson quality in schools is, in addition to other factors, the result of good cooperation between teachers and students. The long history of research on offer-use models of lesson quality and student–teacher relationships documents this interaction. Feedback focused on expressing the quality of cooperation can lead to higher quality of cooperation. The fact that feedback is reciprocal, from teacher to student and vice versa, helps to avoid effects of perceived injustice and rejections of feedback which otherwise are severe obstacles to the efficient use of feedback. High-frequency applications of feedback allow for the timely detection of (positive and negative) critical fluctuations of cooperation between individuals and groups and for the monitoring of processes of adaptation, as shown in other areas of applied psychology. This chapter describes the theoretical parameters of such a feedback method for students and teachers, and outlines results of an empirical study on the effects of the reciprocal method on (1) perceived quality of cooperation and (2) teacher health. Results show that, subsequent to a three-month period of reciprocal feedback, the quality of cooperation as perceived by both students and their teachers increases significantly and teacher health scores improve significantly. Reciprocal feedback techniques should be considered in teacher education and teacher training as a way to help teachers to initiate processes of improvement of lesson quality.

This chapter sets out the philosophical foundations of the proposed account of virtues and vices of intellectual self-appraisal. It explains the nature of intellectual vices in general by distinguishing between sensibilities, thinking styles, and character traits. Subsequently, it describes the specific features of the epistemic vices of self-appraisal. The chapter supplies an account of what makes epistemic vices vicious, and argues in favour of a motivational view. In the author’s view the vices of intellectual self-appraisal are impairments of epistemic agency caused by motivations, such as those of self-enhancement or impression management, that also bring other epistemically bad motives in their trail. Such motivations bias epistemic evaluations of one’s cognitive abilities, processes, and states. These appraisals, in turn, have widespread negative influences on agents’ epistemic conduct as a whole.

Management of construction site financial engagement is one of prerequisite of an effective site management. In recent times Building informatics concept has been useful in developing state of art equipment and process. In this study therefore, building informatics planning was generated that could be used for financial management purpose on site. The research was carried out using qualitative and quantitative research method, quantitative research method involved the use of structured questionnaire developed in Likert scale 1 to 5. Therefore with the aid of purposive sampling method, fifty (50) samples were picked using purposive sampling method. Construction professional constitute the nucleus of the respondents. The statistical inference was carried out on the data with Relative agreement Index and presented in tables. Qualitative method was used to develop the proposed integrated system. The study developed an integrated system that could assist in overcoming the negative vices of payment on site. The following task was carried out in line with aim of the study: identification of existing web-based financial platform, critical success factor in deployment of payment interface, methods of preventing financial conflict on site, challenges of web- interface, critical success factor in deployment of payment interface, identification of strengths and weaknesses of existing web-based financial platforms, among others. The interface can help solve basic problem about financial payment difficulty on site. The direction of choice should be in automating different aspect of building and construction for maximum productivity. The system that was developed in the context of this study can help prevent cost overrun on site, payment conflict, and delay payment among others.

Due to increased interest in comfort features, considerable effort is spent by brake manufacturers in order to suppress brake squeal. This process can be shortened by eliminating the remaining squealing with shunted piezoceramics that are embedded into the brake system. The piezoceramic offers the unique ability to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. The damping performance is determined by the connected shunt. This paper presents a multibody system of a brake, which is capable to reproduce the important features of brake squeal. It includes the dynamics of a piezoceramic that is shunted with a passive LR shunt or a negative capacitance LRC shunt. Analytical stability analysis are carried out to obtain optimal shunt parameters. The performance increase with a negative capacitance is studied in detail. The simulations are validated with measurements on an automotive disc brake.

This study relates in general to accident scenarios in a closed cycle, nuclear powered, three-shaft, helium gas turbine, and in particular to finding explanations for the high energy dissipation rates at certain compressor operating modes on a four quadrant compressor map. A four quadrant compressor map allows the presentation of all combinations of positive and negative pressure rise and flow direction for positive or negative direction of rotation. The paper presents measured velocity profiles between blade rows, and computed particle path lines in blade passages. They reveal radially oriented vortices between the blades in a blade row when operating at low positive and negative flow rates. These vortices almost completely block the flow, and flow passing through the blade passage has to follow a helical path from casing to hub or vice versa around the vortex. The flow paths through these vortices are linked to the flow paths around circumferential ring vortices near the hub or near the casing in the blade free passages between blades rows. When operating as a turbine under high flow rates the vortices associated with negative incidence stall may be sheltered by the stator blade concave surfaces and deflect the flow in addition to blocking it. The vortex structures appear to be fundamental in nature as they were evident in three quadrants and in two different compressors. The vortices play a role in the high energy dissipation rates in axial flow compressors at very low flow rates, where they operate effectively as flow mixers and not as compressors in possible accident scenarios. They also explain the poor performance as turbine in the fourth quadrant.

Multi-instance learning (MIL) is a celebrated learning framework where each example is represented as a bag of instances. An example is negative if it has no positive instances, and vice versa if at least one positive instance is contained. During the past decades, various MIL algorithms have been proposed, among which the large margin based methods is a very popular class. Recently, the studies on margin theory disclose that the margin distribution is of more importance to generalization ability than the minimal margin. Inspired by this observation, we propose the multi-instance optimal margin distribution machine, which can identify the key instances via explicitly optimizing the margin distribution. We also extend a stochastic accelerated mirror prox method to solve the formulated minimax problem. Extensive experiments show the superiority of the proposed method.

Stock price synchronicity is used to explain the co-movement of stock price in the same direction over a certain period with the market price. The aim of this seminar paper is critically review literatures which investigated the association between firm specific information such as ownership concentration, foreign shareholding, audit quality and stock price synchronicity. Most of research used to measure stock price synchronicity either classical synchronicity measure, R-square measure or zero return measure. Studies show that stock price synchronicity high in emerging markets comparing to developed markets. Poland, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Turkey, Columbia and Mexico are among the highest synchronized countries and the reason to their higher synchronicity is poor property right controlling. Ownership concentration, foreign shareholding, audit quality are among the main factors which affected stock price synchronicity. Most of research on this topic are conducted in case of China stock markets due to china is the second higher synchronized country. The finding of reviewed literature indicated that there are negative relationships between ownership concentration, foreign shareholding, audit quality and stock price synchronicity, meaning that low ownership concentration, low foreign ownership and low audit quality resulted in high stock price synchronicity and vice versa. The paper also empirically investigated the association between stock price synchronicity and corporate governance factors such as ownership concentration, foreign shareholding and Percentage of independent directors in the board for 15 companies listed in Borsa Istanbul 30 indexe (BIST 30) covering the period between 2016 and 2019. The finding indicated that only leverage positively associated with stock price synchronicity and foreign ownership, ownership concentration and market to book ratio are negatively associated with stock price synchronicity.

Extended nonlinear analysis of compliant compound parallelogram mechanisms is conducted in this paper. The analytical nonlinear model of a compound basic parallelogram mechanism (CBPM) is first derived incorporating the initial internal axial force. The stiffness equations of compound multi-beam parallelogram mechanisms (CMPMs) are then followed. The effect of initial internal axial forces on the primary motion is further analyzed, which can be employed to consider active displacement preloading control and thermal effects etc. It is shown that negative initial internal axial force will reduce the primary stiffness, and vice versa. The criteria for which the primary stiffness may be considered “constant” is defined and the initial internal axial force driven by temperature change is also formulated. The dynamic analysis of a CMPM using nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) is finally carried out to show the modal frequency and the forced excitation response in the primary motion direction.

Spatial cognitive processing is a fundamental aspect of human cognition, influencing our comprehension of spatial environments. Researchers have defined spatial ability in various ways, encompassing skills such as generating, visualizing, memorizing, and transforming visual information. Despite the diversity in definitions, there is a shared understanding that spatial ability is an inherent skill aiding individuals in tasks requiring visual and spatial acumen. One of the dimensions of spatial ability is spatial visualization that governs our day-to-day activities of staying and working in and navigating through space. One of the factors that could impact our spatial visualization ability is the alignment of visual and body axis that is maintained on earth due to gravitational cues. However, such cues are not available in micro-gravity environments that exist aboard the International Space Station (ISS). It is imperative to understand if human spatial visualization is impacted by such conditions to determine safety and productivity risks. In this paper, we present results of our research examining if the non-alignment of body and visual frame of reference (FOR) affects spatial visualization ability. We administered the Purdue Spatial Visualization Test: Visualization of Rotation (PSVT:R) to measure the spatial visualization ability of 230 participants. The PSVT:R assesses an individual's capacity to mentally rotate 3D objects. Participants matched the rotated view of a test object to a provided example, evaluating spatial visualization skills and cognitive abilities. The study included three test conditions, one control and two experimental conditions simulated in Virtual Reality (VR) using Unity 3D game engine. The control condition (C1) had the body axis and the visual FOR aligned just like a space on earth. The experiment conditions E1 and E2 depicted a micro-gravity environment to simulate statically and dynamically non-aligned visual and body axes, respectively. Participants sat in a swivel chair and wore HTC Vive Pro Eye headsets to experience the three conditions. Results consistently indicated a significant difference between response time (RT) and accuracy of participants’ responses under the three study conditions. Moreover, a negative correlation was found between the response time and accuracy, which implied a trade-off between response time and accuracy—a common phenomenon where individuals may prioritize speed over precision or vice versa. Our findings support the existence of a relationship between response time and accuracy, characterized by a significant difference and a weak correlation. The Bland-Altman analysis offered additional insights, emphasizing the variability in this relationship. In the C1 condition, the correlation coefficient was -0.1902, suggesting a weak tendency for accuracy to slightly decrease as reaction time increases. Similarly, the E1 condition exhibited a negative correlation of -0.2333, indicating a weak but negative trend of decreased accuracy with longer reaction times. In the E2 condition, the correlation coefficient was -0.1049, suggesting a mild decrease in accuracy as reaction time increased. Overall, the consistent negative correlations across all conditions imply a general pattern: participants with longer reaction times may exhibit slightly lower accuracy, and vice versa. Results also showed that the non-alignment of visual and body axes impact spatial visualization ability.

Tools for detection of AI-generated texts are used globally, however, the nature of the apparent accuracy disparities between languages must be further observed. This paper aims to examine the nature of these differences through testing OpenAI’s “AI Text Classifier†on a set of various AI and human-generated texts in English, Swahili, German, Arabic, Chinese, and Hindi. Current tools for detecting AI-generated text are already fairly easy to discredit, as misclassifications have shown to be fairly common, but such vulnerabilities often persist in slightly different ways when non-English languages are observed: classification of human-written text as AI-generated and vice versa could occur more frequently in specific language environments than others. Our findings indicate that false positives are more likely to occur in Hindi and Arabic, whereas false negative labelings are more likely to occur in English. Other languages tested had a tendency to not be confidently labeled at all.

Detailed unsteady fluid force and phase measurements for a single tube oscillating purely in the streamwise direction in a rotated triangular tube array subjected to air-water two-phase cross-flow have been conducted in this study for homogeneous void fractions between 0% and 90%. Additionally the streamwise steady forces were measured in two-phase flow at a Reynolds number (based on the pitch velocity), Re = 7.2 × 104. The results are compared to those previously obtained for transverse direction oscillations. The measurement results show that the magnitude of the force coefficients for both directions (drag and lift) is comparable both in trend and quantitatively. However, the phase in the drag direction is negative while that for the lift is positive. The range of variation of the phase is also significantly smaller for the drag direction. Noting that negative phase corresponds to positive damping and vice versa, this observation confirms previous findings of lack of instability in the drag direction for a single flexible tube in a rotated triangular tube array. The drag steady fluid force coefficients were found to increase with dimensionless displacement in the flow direction for the entire range of void fractions considered. The derivative of the measured steady fluid force coefficient, which is an important factor in fluidelastic instability study using the quasi-steady model, was found to remain positive in the drag direction. The effect of void fraction on the unsteady fluid force coefficient and other dynamic parameters such as hydrodynamic mass and damping are also discussed.

The effect of the pre-bending operation on ductility can be significant in determining the limit strains of the final product. The strain path experienced in straight tube bulging is significantly different from that of elbow (tube with pre-bending), leading to a reduction in bulge height. The Tube bending introduces strain gradient both along the tube and across the tube. In this work the effect of pre-bending on limit strains during tube bulging process is predicted — and the results are compared to the limit strains of bulged tubes without pre-bending. The Finite Element (FE) model of the bending operation is developed which utilizes an explicit dynamic finite element formulation. The PAMSTAMP 2G code is used to perform the numerical pre-bend (and bulging) simulations. Tension side of bend tube axial strain is found to be positive and hoop strain as negative and vice versa along the compression side. During the bulging, the neck usually develops perpendicular to major strain direction. During bend tube bulge test with fixed expansion and axial feed expansion of bend tubes, in both cases the crack is found to be in the axial direction.

Rugose wood is a complex disease of grapevines, characterized by modification of the woody cylinder of affected vines. The control of rugose wood is based on the production of healthy propagation material. Detection of rugose wood in grapevines is difficult and expensive: budwood from tested plants is grafted onto sensitive Vitis indicators and the appearance of symptoms is monitored for 3 years. The etiology of rugose wood is complex and has not yet been elucidated. Several elongated clostero-like viruses are consistently found in affected vines; one of them, grapevine virus A (GVA), is closely associated with Kober stem grooving, a component of the rugose wood complex. GVA has a single-stranded RNA genome of 7349 nucleotides, excluding a polyA tail at the 3' terminus. The GVA genome includes five open reading frames (ORFs 1-5). ORF 4, which encodes for the coat protein of GVA, is the only ORF for which the function was determined experimentally. The original objectives of this research were: 1- To produce antisera to the structural and non-structural proteins of GVA and GVB and to use these antibodies to establish an effective detection method. 2- Develop full length infectious cDNA clones of GVA and GVB. 3- Study the roll of GVA and GVB in the etiology of the grapevine rugose wood disease. 4- Determine the function of Trichovirus (now called Vitivirus) encoded genes in the virus life cycle. Each of the ORFs 2, 3, 4 and 5 genes of GVA were cloned and expressed in E. coli and used to produce antisera. Both the CP (ORF 4) and the putative MP (ORF 3) were detected with their corresponding antisera in-GVA infected N. benthamiana and grapevine. The MP was first detected at an early stage of the infection, 6-12 h after inoculation, and the CP 2-3 days after inoculation. The MP could be detected in GVA-infected grapevines that tested negative for CP, both with CP antiserum and with a commercially available ELISA kit. Antisera to ORF 2 and 5 encoded proteins could react with the recombinant proteins but failed to detect both proteins in GVA infected plants. A full-length cDNA clone of grapevine virus A (GVA) was constructed downstream from the bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase promoter. Capped in vitro transcribed RNA was infectious in N. benthamiana and N. clevelandii plants. Symptoms induced by the RNA transcripts or by the parental virus were indistinguishable. The infectivity of the in vitro-transcribed RNA was confirmed by serological detection of the virus coat and movement proteins and by observation of virions by electron microscopy. The full-length clone was modified to include a gus reporter gene and gus activity was detected in inoculated and systemic leaves of infected plants. Studies of GVA mutants suggests that the coat protein (ORF 4) is essential for cell to cell movement, the putative movement protein (ORF 3) indeed functions as a movement protein and that ORF 2 is not required for virus replication, cell to cell or systemic movement. Attempts to infect grapevines by in-vitro transcripts, by inoculation of cDNA construct in which the virus is derived by the CaMV 35S promoter or by approach grafting with infected N. benthamiana, have so far failed. Studies of the subcellular distribution of GFP fusion with each of ORF 2, 3 and 4 encoded protein showed that the CP fusion protein accumulated as a soluble cytoplasmatic protein. The ORF 2 fusion protein accumulated in cytoplasmatic aggregates. The MP-GFP fusion protein accumulated in a large number of small aggregates in the cytoplasm and could not move from cell to cell. However, in conditions that allowed movement of the fusion protein from cell to cell (expression by a PVX vector or in young immature leaves) the protein did not form cytoplasmatic aggregates but accumulated in the plasmodesmata.

Groundwater represents 97% of the world’s available freshwater resources and is extensively abstracted throughout the world. While abundant in a global context, it can only de developed to a certain extent without causing environmental impacts. Also, it is highly variable across the globe, and where it is heavily relied on, it is less renewable. Hence, it is critically important that this resource is managed sustainably. However, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Development Agenda do not, as a rule, account explicitly for the significant role that groundwater plays and will continue to play in sustainable development. This report aims to unpack and highlight this role through consistent analysis of the interlinkages between groundwater and the targets of the SDGs. The key features of groundwater relevant to the SDGs are its use, management and sustainability. The methodology used to analyse groundwater interlinkages with SDG targets includes, first, identification of ‘evidence-based’ and ‘logical’ interlinkages. The first type of interlinkages is supported by existing data, while the second is by information and logic that needs to be drawn from existing bodies of relevant research. While only a few interlinkages may be seen at present as “evidence-based”, more data are continuously emerging to make more interlinkages supported by hard-core evidence. Subsequently, the interlinkages are classified into either ‘reinforcing’, ‘conflicting’ or ‘mixed’ – depending on whether achievement of a target will have predominantly positive, negative, or mixed impact on groundwater. The interlinkages are also classified into ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’, depending on how strong and direct the impacts on groundwater from achieving the targets may be. The report presents a summary of key interlinkages, and subsequently provides the narrative of all ‘primary’ ones. The analysis suggests that more than half of interlinkages are ‘reinforcing’, while only a few are ‘conflicting’. From a policy perspective i) conflicting interlinkages are the most critical and difficult ones to manage, and ii) it is important to draw synergies between SDG initiatives and groundwater to allow reinforcing interlinkages to materialise. Nearly a third of all identified interlinkages were classified as ‘mixed’. This means that when target activities are planned, careful consideration must be given to possible impacts on groundwater to avoid unintended negative outcomes that may not be evident at first. Primary interlinkages that constitute 43% of all may be the easiest to understand and the most important to plan for. However, there are even more secondary interlinkages. This means that groundwater experts need to be able to share knowledge to a range of actors involved in addressing the targets with secondary interlinkages to groundwater, and vice versa. It is also shown that i) the importance of groundwater to sustainable development is poorly recognised and captured at the SDG target level; ii) there is a lack of globally useful, up-to-date and SDG-relevant groundwater data available, which makes it difficult to make globally, and even locally, relevant recommendations for groundwater use, management and sustainability in the SDG era, and iii) there are often poor links between targets and their indicators. This may signal that all groundwater-related and groundwater-relevant aspirations may not be translated into real, let alone, measurable action. This report is not a comprehensive analysis and involves an element of subjectivity, associated primarily with the data and information paucity on one hand, and with the imperfection of the SDG target and indicator system itself – on another. However, even with these limitations, the report shows how significant groundwater is in sustainable development, even if the current SDG framework is implicit about this. Furthermore, it suggests a structured way to improve the visibility of groundwater in the SDG framework as it continues to develop.
