    for the first time state transportation officials were required to consult seriously
    with local representatives on mpo governing boards regarding matters of project
    prioritization and decisionmaking these changes had their roots in the need to
    address increasingly difficult transportation problems — in particular the more
    complicated patterns of traffic congestion that arose with the suburban development
    boom in the previous decades many recognized that the problems could only be addressed
    effectively through a stronger federal commitment to regional planning the legislation
    that emerged the intermodal surface transportation efficiency act istea was signed
    into federal law by president george h w bush in december 1991 it focused on improving
    transportation not as an end in itself but as the means to achieve important national
    goals including economic progress cleaner air energy conservation and social equity
    istea promoted a transportation system in which different modes and facilities
    — highway transit pedestrian bicycle aviation and marine — were integrated to
    allow a seamless movement of both goods and people new funding programs provided
    greater flexibility in the use of funds particularly regarding using previously
    restricted highway funds for transit development improved intermodal connections
    and emphasized upgrades to existing facilities over building new capacity — particularly
    roadway capacity to accomplish more serious metropolitan planning istea doubled
    federal funding for mpo operations and required the agencies to evaluate a variety
    of multimodal solutions to roadway congestion and other transportation problems
    mpos also were required to broaden public participation in the planning process
    and to see that investment decisions contributed to meeting the air quality standards
    of the clean air act amendments in addition istea placed a new requirement on
    mpos to conduct fiscally constrained planning and ensure that longrange transportation
    plans and shortterm transportation improvement programs were fiscally constrained
    in other words adopted plans and programs can not include more projects than reasonably
    can be expected to be funded through existing or projected sources of revenues
    this new requirement represented a major conceptual shift for many mpos and others
    in the planning community since the imposition of fiscal discipline on plans now
    required not only understanding how much money might be available but how to prioritize
    investment needs and make difficult choices among competing needs adding to this
    complexity is the need to plan across transportation modes and develop approaches
    for multimodal investment prioritization and decision making it is in this context
    of greater prominence funding and requirements that mpos function today an annual
    element is composed of transportation improvement projects contained in an areas

    the interface between the seabed and the overlying water the technique is used
    to measure or estimate biological chemical and physical processes occurring in
    the first few centimetres of sediment pore water and the important benthic boundary

    natural cycles like tides and daylight or anthropogenic variables like feeding
    loads in aquaculture spi systems cost between tens and hundreds of thousands of
    dollars and weigh between 20 and 400 kilograms traditional spi units can be effectively
    used to explore continental shelf and abyssal depths recently developed spiscan
    or rspi rotational spi systems can now also be used to inexpensively investigate
    shallow 50m freshwater estuarine and marine systems humans are strongly visually
    oriented we like information in the form of pictures and are able to integrate
    many different kinds of data when they are presented in one or more images it
    seems natural to seek a way of directly imaging the sedimentwater interface in
    order to investigate animalsediment interactions in the marine benthos rhoads
    and cande 1971 took pictures of the sedimentwater interface at high resolution
    submillimetre over small spatial scales centimetres in order to examine benthic
    patterns through time or over large spatial scales kilometres rapidly slicing
    into seabeds and taking pictures instead of physical cores they analysed images
    of the vertical sediment profile in a technique that came to be known as spi this
    technique advanced in subsequent decades through a number of mechanical improvements
    and digital imaging and analysis technology spi is now a wellestablished approach
    accepted as standard practice in several parts of the world though its wider adoption
    has been hampered partly because of equipment cost deployment and interpretation
    difficulties it has also suffered some paradigm setbacks the amount of information
    that a person can extract from imagery in general is not easily and repeatedly
    reduced to quantifiable and interpretable values but see pech et al 2004 tkachenko
    2005 sulston and ferry 2002 wrote about this difficulty in relation to the study
    of the human genome electron microscope images of their model organism caenorhabditis
    elegans carried a lot of information but were ignored by many scientists because
    they were not readily quantified yet that pictorial information ultimately resulted
    in a deep and quantifiable understanding of underlying principles and mechanisms
    in the same way spi has been used successfully by focusing on the integration
    of visual data and a few objectively quantifiable parameters in site reconnaissance

technologies it may be that while alien species with intelligence exist they are primitive or have not reached the level of technological advancement necessary to communicate along with nonintelligent life such civilizations would also be very difficult to detect a trip using conventional rockets would take hundreds of thousands of years to reach the nearest starsto skeptics the fact that in the history of life on the earth only one species has developed a civilization to the point of being capable of spaceflight and radio technology lends more credence to the idea that technologically advanced civilizations are rare in the universeanother hypothesis in this category is the water world hypothesis according to author and scientist david brin it turns out that our earth skates the very inner edge of our suns continuously habitable — or goldilocks — zone and earth may be anomalous it may be that because we are so close to our sun we have an anomalously oxygenrich atmosphere and we have anomalously little ocean for a water world in other words 32 percent continental mass may be high among water worlds brin continues in which case the evolution of creatures like us with hands and fire and all that sort of thing may be rare in the galaxy in which case when we do build starships and head out there perhaps well find lots and lots of life worlds but theyre all like polynesia well find lots and lots of intelligent lifeforms out there but theyre all dolphins whales squids who could never build their own starships what a perfect universe for us to be in because nobody would be able to boss us around and wed get to be the voyagers the star trek people the starship builders the policemen and so on it is the nature of intelligent life to destroy itself this is the argument that technological civilizations may usually or invariably destroy themselves before or shortly after developing radio or spaceflight technology the astrophysicist sebastian von hoerner stated that the progress of science and technology on earth was driven by two factors — the struggle for domination and the desire for an easy life the former potentially leads to complete destruction while the latter may lead to biological or mental degeneration possible means of annihilation via major global issues where global interconnectedness actually makes humanity more vulnerable than resilient are many including war accidental environmental contamination or damage the development of biotechnology synthetic life like mirror life resource depletion climate change or poorlydesigned artificial

have found molecular signatures of co silicon carbide amorphous silicate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons water ice and polyformaldehyde among others in the diffuse interstellar medium there is evidence for silicate and carbon grains cometary dust is generally different with overlap from asteroidal dust asteroidal dust resembles carbonaceous chondritic meteorites cometary dust resembles interstellar grains which can include silicates polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and water ice in september 2020 evidence was presented of solidstate water in the interstellar medium and particularly of water ice mixed with silicate grains in cosmic dust grains the large grains in interstellar space are probably complex with refractory cores that condensed within stellar outflows topped by layers acquired during incursions into cold dense interstellar clouds that cyclic process of growth and destruction outside of the clouds has been modeled to demonstrate that the cores live much longer than the average lifetime of dust mass those cores mostly start with silicate particles condensing in the atmospheres of cool oxygenrich redgiants and carbon grains condensing in the atmospheres of cool carbon stars red giants have evolved or altered off the main sequence and have entered the giant phase of their evolution and are the major source of refractory dust grain cores in galaxies those refractory cores are also called stardust section above which is a scientific term for the small fraction of cosmic dust that condensed thermally within stellar gases as they were ejected from the stars several percent of refractory grain cores have condensed within expanding interiors of supernovae a type of cosmic decompression chamber meteoriticists who study refractory stardust extracted from meteorites often call it presolar grains but that within meteorites is only a small fraction of all presolar dust stardust condenses within the stars via considerably different condensation chemistry than that of the bulk of cosmic dust which accretes cold onto preexisting dust in dark molecular clouds of the galaxy those molecular clouds are very cold typically less than 50k so that ices of many kinds may accrete onto grains in cases only to be destroyed or split apart by'</li><li>'##sequilibrium in the geochemical cycle which would point to a reaction happening more or less often than it should a disequilibrium such as this could be interpreted as an indication of life a biosignature must be able to last for long enough so that a probe telescope or human can be able to detect it a consequence of a biological organisms use of metabolic reactions for energy is the production of metabolic waste in addition the structure of an organism can be preserved as a fossil and we know that some fossils on earth are as old as 35 billion years these byproducts can make excellent biosignatures since they provide direct evidence for life however in order to be a viable biosignature a byproduct must subsequently remain intact so that scientists may discover it a biosignature must be detectable with the current technology to be relevant in scientific investigation this seems to be an obvious statement however there are many scenarios in which life may be present on a planet yet remain undetectable because of humancaused limitations false positives every possible biosignature is associated with its own set of unique false positive mechanisms or nonbiological processes that can mimic the detectable feature of a biosignature an important example is using oxygen as a biosignature on earth the majority of life is centred around oxygen it is a byproduct of photosynthesis and is subsequently used by other life forms to breathe oxygen is also readily detectable in spectra with multiple bands across a relatively wide wavelength range therefore it makes a very good biosignature however finding oxygen alone in a planets atmosphere is not enough to confirm a biosignature because of the falsepositive mechanisms associated with it one possibility is that oxygen can build up abiotically via photolysis if there is a low inventory of noncondensable gasses or if it loses a lot of water finding and distinguishing a biosignature from its potential falsepositive mechanisms is one of the most complicated parts of testing for viability because it relies on human ingenuity to break an abioticbiological degeneracy if nature allows false negatives opposite to false positives false negative biosignatures arise in a scenario where life may be present on another planet but some processes on that planet make potential biosignatures undetectable this is an ongoing problem and area of research in preparation for future telescopes that will be capable of observing exoplanetary atmospheres human limitations there are many ways in which humans may limit the viability'</li></ul>

the use of electronics and computing the ultrasonic frequency range enabled wholly new kinds of application in medicine and industry new kinds of transducers generators and receivers of acoustic energy were invented and put to use acoustics is defined by ansiasa s112013 as a science of sound including its production transmission and effects including biological and psychological effects b those qualities of a room that together determine its character with respect to auditory effects the study of acoustics revolves around the generation propagation and reception of mechanical waves and vibrations the steps shown in the above diagram can be found in any acoustical event or process there are many kinds of cause both natural and volitional there are many kinds of transduction process that convert energy from some other form into sonic energy producing a sound wave there is one fundamental equation that describes sound wave propagation the acoustic wave equation but the phenomena that emerge from it are varied and often complex the wave carries energy throughout the propagating medium eventually this energy is transduced again into other forms in ways that again may be natural andor volitionally contrived the final effect may be purely physical or it may reach far into the biological or volitional domains the five basic steps are found equally well whether we are talking about an earthquake a submarine using sonar to locate its foe or a band playing in a rock concert the central stage in the acoustical process is wave propagation this falls within the domain of physical acoustics in fluids sound propagates primarily as a pressure wave in solids mechanical waves can take many forms including longitudinal waves transverse waves and surface waves acoustics looks first at the pressure levels and frequencies in the sound wave and how the wave interacts with the environment this interaction can be described as either a diffraction interference or a reflection or a mix of the three if several media are present a refraction can also occur transduction processes are also of special importance to acoustics in fluids such as air and water sound waves

beam for biological tissue while for simpler media such as air the relationship is quadratic attenuation coefficients vary widely for different media in biomedical ultrasound imaging however biological materials and water are the most commonly used media the attenuation coefficients of common biological materials at a frequency of 1 mhz are listed below there are two general ways of acoustic energy losses absorption and scattering ultrasound propagation through homogeneous media is associated only with absorption and can be characterized with absorption coefficient only propagation through heterogeneous media requires taking into account scattering shortwave radiation emitted from the sun have wavelengths in the visible spectrum of light that range from 360 nm violet to 750 nm red when the suns radiation reaches the sea surface the shortwave radiation is attenuated by the water and the intensity of light decreases exponentially with water depth the intensity of light at depth can be calculated using the beerlambert law in clear midocean waters visible light is absorbed most strongly at the longest wavelengths thus red orange and yellow wavelengths are totally absorbed at shallower depths while blue and violet wavelengths reach deeper in the water column because the blue and violet wavelengths are absorbed least compared to the other wavelengths openocean waters appear deep blue to the eye near the shore coastal water contains more phytoplankton than the very clear midocean waters chlorophylla pigments in the phytoplankton absorb light and the plants themselves scatter light making coastal waters less clear than midocean waters chlorophylla absorbs light most strongly in the shortest wavelengths blue and violet of the visible spectrum in coastal waters where high concentrations of phytoplankton occur the green wavelength reaches the deepest in the water column and the color of water appears bluegreen or green the energy with which an earthquake affects a location depends on the running distance the attenuation in the signal of ground motion intensity plays an important role in the assessment of possible strong groundshaking a seismic wave loses energy as it propagates through the earth seismic attenuation this phenomenon is tied into the dispersion of the seismic energy with the distance there are two types of dissipated

sedimentary'</li><li>'in acoustics acoustic attenuation is a measure of the energy loss of sound propagation through an acoustic transmission medium most media have viscosity and are therefore not ideal media when sound propagates in such media there is always thermal consumption of energy caused by viscosity this effect can be quantified through the stokess law of sound attenuation sound attenuation may also be a result of heat conductivity in the media as has been shown by g kirchhoff in 1868 the stokeskirchhoff attenuation formula takes into account both viscosity and thermal conductivity effects for heterogeneous media besides media viscosity acoustic scattering is another main reason for removal of acoustic energy acoustic attenuation in a lossy medium plays an important role in many scientific researches and engineering fields such as medical ultrasonography vibration and noise reduction many experimental and field measurements show that the acoustic attenuation

gene that affects isolation such that substituting one chromosome from a line of low isolation with another of high isolation reduces the hybridization frequency in addition interactions between chromosomes are detected so that certain combinations of the chromosomes have a multiplying effect cross incompatibility or incongruence in plants is also determined by major genes that are not associated at the selfincompatibility s locus reproductive isolation between species appears in certain cases a long time after fertilization and the formation of the zygote as happens – for example – in the twin species drosophila pavani and d gaucha the hybrids between both species are not sterile in the sense that they produce viable gametes ovules and spermatozoa however they cannot produce offspring as the sperm of the hybrid male do not survive in the semen receptors of the females be they hybrids or from the parent lines in the same way the sperm of the males of the two parent species do not survive in the reproductive tract of the hybrid female this type of postcopulatory isolation appears as the most efficient system for maintaining reproductive isolation in many speciesthe development of a zygote into an adult is a complex and delicate process of interactions between genes and the environment that must be carried out precisely and if there is any alteration in the usual process caused by the absence of a necessary gene or the presence of a different one it can arrest the normal development causing the nonviability of the hybrid or its sterility it should be borne in mind that half of the chromosomes and genes of a hybrid are from one species and the other half come from the other if the two species are genetically different there is little possibility that the genes from both will act harmoniously in the hybrid from this perspective only a few genes would be required in order to bring about post copulatory isolation as opposed to the situation described previously for precopulatory isolationin many species where precopulatory reproductive isolation does not exist hybrids are produced but they are of only one sex this is the case for the hybridization between females of drosophila simulans and drosophila melanogaster males the hybridized females die early in their development so that only males are seen among the offspring however populations of d simulans have been recorded with genes that permit the development of adult hybrid females that is the viability of the females is rescued it is assumed that the normal activity of these speciation

number of mbis after 1980 but recent studies have changed our understanding of the occurrence of saline inflows especially after the lightship gedser rev discontinued regular salinity measurements in the belt sea in 1976 the picture of the inflows based on salinity measurements remained incomplete at the leibniz institute for baltic sea research warnemunde germany an updated time series has been compiled filling in the gaps in observations and covering major baltic inflows and various smaller inflow events of saline water from around 1890 to the present day the updated time series is based on direct discharge data from the darss sill and no longer shows a clear change in the frequency or intensity of saline inflows instead there is cyclical variation in the intensity of mbis at approximately 30year intervals major baltic inflows mbis are the only natural phenomenon capable of oxygenating the deep saline waters of the baltic sea making their occurrence crucial for the ecological state of the sea the salinity and oxygen from mbis significantly impact the baltic seas ecosystems including the reproductive conditions of marine fish species such as cod the distribution of freshwater and marine species and the overall biodiversity of the baltic seathe heavy saline water brought in by mbis slowly advances along the seabed of the baltic proper at a pace of a few

the form of outgoing longwave radiation olr longwave radiation is electromagnetic thermal radiation emitted by earths surface and atmosphere longwave radiation is in the infrared band but the terms are not synonymous as infrared radiation can be either shortwave or longwave sunlight contains significant amounts of shortwave infrared radiation a threshold wavelength of 4 microns is sometimes used to distinguish longwave and shortwave radiation generally absorbed solar energy is converted to different forms of heat energy some of the solar energy absorbed by the surface is converted to thermal radiation at wavelengths in the atmospheric window this radiation is able to pass through the atmosphere unimpeded and directly escape to space contributing to olr the remainder of absorbed solar energy is transported upwards through the atmosphere through a variety of heat transfer mechanisms until the atmosphere emits that energy as thermal energy which is able to escape to space again contributing to olr for example heat is transported into the atmosphere via evapotranspiration and latent heat fluxes or conductionconvection processes as well as via radiative heat transport ultimately all outgoing energy is radiated into space in the form of longwave radiation the transport of longwave radiation from earths surface through its multilayered atmosphere is governed by radiative transfer equations such as schwarzschilds equation for radiative transfer or more complex equations if scattering is present and'</li><li>'ions already in the ocean combine with some of the

caco3the increase in concentrations of dissolved carbon dioxide and bicarbonate and reduction in carbonate are shown in the bjerrum plot the saturation state known as ω of seawater for a mineral is a

ksp that is when the rates of precipitation and dissolution are equal in seawater dissolution boundary is formed as a result of temperature pressure and depth and is known as the saturation horizon above this saturation horizon ω has a value greater than 1 and caco3 does not readily dissolve most calcifying organisms live in such waters below this depth ω has a value less than 1 and caco3 will dissolve the carbonate compensation depth is the ocean depth at which carbonate dissolution balances the supply of carbonate to sea floor therefore sediment below this depth will be void of calcium carbonate increasing co2 levels and the resulting lower ph of seawater decreases the concentration of co32− and the saturation state of caco3 therefore increasing caco3 dissolution calcium carbonate most commonly occurs in two common polymorphs crystalline forms aragonite and calcite aragonite is much more soluble than calcite so the aragonite saturation horizon and aragonite compensation depth is always nearer to the surface than the calcite saturation horizon this also means that those organisms that produce aragonite may be more vulnerable to changes in ocean acidity than those that produce calcite ocean acidification and the resulting decrease in carbonate saturation states raise the saturation horizons of both forms closer to the surface this decrease in saturation state is one of the main factors leading to decreased calcification in marine organisms because the inorganic precipitation of caco3 is directly proportional to its saturation state and calcifying organisms exhibit stress in waters with lower saturation states already now large quantities of water undersaturated in aragonite are upwelling close to the pacific continental shelf area of north america from

approach by nevin m fenneman in 1916 that separates landforms into physiographic divisions physiographic provinces and physiographic sectionsthe classification mechanism has become a popular geographical tool in the united states indicated by the publication of a usgs shapefile that maps the regions of the original work and the national park servicess use of the terminology to describe the regions in which its parks are locatedoriginally used in north america the model became the basis for similar classifications of other continents during the early 1900s the study of regionalscale geomorphology was termed physiography physiography later was considered to be a portmanteau of physical and geography and therefore synonymous with physical geography and the concept became embroiled in controversy surrounding the appropriate concerns of that discipline some geomorphologists held to a geological basis for physiography and emphasized a concept of physiographic regions while a conflicting trend among geographers was to equate physiography with pure morphology separated from its geological heritage in the period following world war ii the emergence of process climatic and quantitative studies led to a preference by many earth scientists for the term geomorphology in order to suggest an analytical approach to landscapes rather than a descriptive one in current usage physiography still lends itself to confusion as to which meaning is meant the more specialized geomorphological definition or the more encompassing physical geography definition for the purposes of physiographic mapping landforms are classified according to both their geologic structures and histories distinctions based on geologic age also correspond to physiographic distinctions where the forms are so recent as to be in their first erosion cycle as is generally the case with sheets of glacial drift generally forms which result from similar histories are characterized by certain similar features and differences in history result in corresponding differences of form usually resulting in distinctive features which are obvious to the casual observer but this is not always the case a maturely dissected plateau may grade without a break from rugged mountains on the one hand to mildly rolling farm lands on the other so also forms which are not classified together may be superficially similar for example a young coastal plain and a peneplain in a large number of cases the boundary lines are also geologic lines due to differences in the nature or structure of the underlying rocks the history of physiography itself is at best a complicated effort much of'</li><li>'tightly packed array of narrow individual beams provides very high angular resolution and accuracy in general a wide swath which is depth dependent allows a boat to map more seafloor in less time than a singlebeam echosounder by making fewer passes the beams update many times per second typically 01 – 50 hz depending on water depth allowing faster boat speed while maintaining 100 coverage of the seafloor attitude sensors allow for the correction of the boats roll and pitch on the ocean surface

conductivity and pressure a computer system processes all the data correcting for all of the above factors as well as for the angle of each individual beam the resulting sounding measurements are then processed either manually semiautomatically or automatically in limited circumstances to produce a map of the area as of 2010 a number of different outputs are generated including a subset of the original measurements that satisfy some conditions eg most representative likely soundings shallowest in a region etc or integrated digital terrain models dtm eg a regular or irregular grid of points

of the hydraulic scaling of real rivers believed to be in erosional steady state indicate that the ratio mn should be around 05 which provides a basic test of the applicability of each formulationalthough consisting of the product of two power laws the term stream power law refers to the derivation of the early forms of the equation from assumptions of erosion dependency on stream power rather than to the presence of power laws in the equation this relation is not a true scientific law but rather a heuristic description of erosion processes based on previously observed scaling relations which may or may not be applicable in any given natural setting the stream power law is an example of a one dimensional advection equation more specifically a hyperbolic partial differential equation typically the equation is used to simulate propagating incision pulses creating discontinuities or knickpoints in the river profile commonly used first order finite difference methods to solve the stream power law may result in significant numerical diffusion which can be prevented by the use of analytical solutions or higher order numerical schemes'</li></ul>

that cover the space in the sense that each point of the space lies in some set contained in the family this more subtle notion introduced by pavel alexandrov and pavel urysohn in 1929 exhibits compact spaces as generalizations of finite sets in spaces that are compact in this sense it is often possible to patch together information that holds locally – that is in a neighborhood of each point – into corresponding statements that hold throughout the space and many theorems are of this character the term compact set is sometimes used as a synonym for compact space but also often refers to a compact subspace of a topological space in the 19th century several disparate mathematical properties were understood that would later be seen as consequences of compactness on the one hand bernard bolzano 1817 had been aware that any bounded sequence of points in the line or plane for instance has a subsequence that must eventually get arbitrarily close to some other point called a limit point bolzanos proof relied on the method of bisection the sequence was placed into an interval that was then divided into two equal parts and a part containing infinitely many terms of the sequence was selected the process could then be repeated by dividing the resulting smaller interval into smaller and smaller parts – until it closes down on the desired limit point the full significance of bolzanos theorem and its method of proof would not emerge until almost 50 years later when it was rediscovered by karl weierstrassin the 1880s it became clear that results similar to the bolzano – weierstrass theorem could be formulated for spaces of functions rather than just numbers or geometrical points the idea of regarding functions as themselves points of a generalized space dates back to the investigations of giulio ascoli and cesare arzela the culmination of their investigations the arzela – ascoli theorem was a generalization of the bolzano – weierstrass theorem to families of continuous functions the precise conclusion of which was that it was possible to extract a uniformly convergent sequence of functions from a suitable family of functions the uniform limit of this sequence then played precisely the same role as bolzanos limit point towards the beginning of the twentieth century results similar to that of arzela and ascoli began to accumulate in the area of integral equations as investigated by david hilbert and erhard schmidt for a certain class of greens functions coming from solutions'</li><li>'also holds for dmodules if x s x and s are smooth

but each time rejected for a variety of reasons in 2005 congress considered but did not pass legislation entitled the fairness in asbestos injury resolution act of 2005 the act would have established a 140 billion trust fund in lieu of litigation but as it would have proactively taken funds held in reserve by bankruptcy trusts manufacturers and insurance companies it was not widely supported either by victims or corporations on april 26 2005 philip j landrigan professor and chair of the department of community and preventive medicine at mount sinai medical center in new york city testified before the us senate committee on the judiciary against this proposed legislation he testified that many of the bills provisions were unsupported by medicine and would unfairly exclude a large number of people who had become ill or died from asbestos the approach to the diagnosis of disease caused by asbestos that is set forth in this bill is not consistent with the diagnostic criteria established by the american thoracic society if the bill is to deliver on'</li><li>'cancer slope factors csf are used to estimate the risk of cancer associated with exposure to a carcinogenic or potentially carcinogenic substance a slope factor is an upper bound approximating a 95 confidence limit on the increased cancer risk from a lifetime exposure to an agent by ingestion or inhalation this estimate usually expressed in units of proportion of a population affected per mg of substancekg body weightday is generally reserved for use in the lowdose region of the doseresponse relationship that is for exposures corresponding to risks less than 1 in 100 slope factors are also referred to as cancer potency factors pf for carcinogens it is commonly assumed that a small number of molecular events may evoke changes in a single cell that can lead to uncontrolled cellular proliferation and eventually to a clinical diagnosis of cancer this toxicity of carcinogens is referred to as being nonthreshold because there is believed to be essentially no level of exposure that does not pose some probability of producing a carcinogenic response therefore there is no dose that can be considered to be riskfree however some nongenotoxic carcinogens may exhibit a threshold whereby doses lower than the threshold do not invoke a carcinogenic response when evaluating cancer risks of genotoxic carcinogens theoretically an effect threshold cannot be estimated for chemicals that are carcinogens a twopart evaluation to quantify risk is often employed in which the substance first is assigned a weightofevidence classification and then a slope factor is calculated when the chemical is a known or probable human carcinogen a toxicity value that defines quantitatively the relationship between dose and response ie the slope factor is calculated because risk at low exposure levels is difficult to measure directly either by animal experiments or by epidemiologic studies the development of a slope factor generally entails applying a model to the available data set and using the model to extrapolate from the relatively high doses administered to experimental animals or the exposures noted in epidemiologic studies to the lower exposure levels expected for human contact in the environment highquality human data eg high quality epidemiological studies on carcinogens are preferable to animal data when human data are limited the most sensitive species is given the greatest emphasis occasionally in situations where no single study is judged most appropriate yet several studies collectively support the estimate the geometric mean of estimates from all studies may be adopted as the slope this practice ensures the inclusion of all relevant data slope factors are typically calculated for potential carcinogens in classes a b1'</li></ul>

reporting describing metadata enzymology experiments the initiative is supported by the beilstein institute for the advancement of chemical sciences strenda establishes both publication standards for enzyme activity data and strenda db an electronic validation and storage system for enzyme activity data launched in 2004 the foundation of strenda is the result of a detailed analysis of the quality of enzymology data in written and electronic publications the strenda project is driven by 15 scientists from all over the world forming the strenda commission and supporting the work with expertises in biochemistry enzyme nomenclature bioinformatics systems biology modelling mechanistic enzymology and theoretical biology the strenda guidelines propose those minimum information that is needed to comprehensively report kinetic and equilibrium data from investigations of enzyme activities including corresponding experimental conditions this minimum information is suggested to be addressed in a scientific publication when enzymology research data is reported to ensure that data sets are comprehensively described this allows scientists not only to review interpret and corroborate the data but also to reuse the data for modelling and simulation of biocatalytic pathways in addition the guidelines support researchers making their experimental data reproducible and transparentas of march 2020 more than 55 international biochemistry journal included the strenda guidelines in their authors instructions as recommendations when reporting enzymology data the strenda project is registered with fairsharingorg and the guidelines are part of the fairdom community standards for systems biology strenda db strenda db is a webbased storage and search platform that has incorporated the guidelines and automatically checks the submitted data on compliance with the strenda guidelines thus ensuring that the manuscript data sets are complete and valid a valid data set is awarded a strenda registry

anabolic chemical reaction that consumes energy it is the opposite of an exergonic reaction it has a positive δg because it takes more energy to break the bonds of the reactant than the energy of the products offer ie the products have weaker bonds than the reactants thus endergonic reactions are thermodynamically unfavorable additionally endergonic reactions are usually anabolicthe free energy δg gained or lost in a reaction can be calculated as follows δg δh − tδs where ∆g gibbs free energy ∆h enthalpy t temperature in kelvins and ∆s entropy glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose into pyruvate producing two molecules of atp per 1 molecule of glucose in the process when a cell has a higher concentration of atp than adp ie has a high energy charge the cell cant undergo glycolysis releasing energy from available glucose to perform biological work pyruvate is one product of glycolysis and can be shuttled into other metabolic pathways gluconeogenesis etc as needed by the cell additionally glycolysis produces reducing equivalents in the form of nadh nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide which will ultimately be used to donate electrons to the electron transport chaingluconeogenesis is the opposite of glycolysis when the cells energy charge is low the concentration of adp is higher than that of atp the cell must synthesize glucose from carbon containing biomolecules such as proteins amino acids fats pyruvate etc for example proteins can be broken down into amino acids and these simpler carbon skeletons are used to build synthesize glucosethe citric acid cycle is a process of cellular respiration in which acetyl coenzyme a synthesized from pyruvate dehydrogenase is first reacted with oxaloacetate to yield citrate the remaining eight reactions produce other carboncontaining metabolites these metabolites are successively oxidized and the free energy of oxidation is conserved in the form of the reduced coenzymes fadh2 and nadh these reduced

denotes all rna transcripts produced from the portions of the genome still active or awakened in the internal organs of a body following its death it is relevant to the study of the biochemistry microbiology and biophysics of thanatology in particular within forensic science some genes may continue to be expressed in cells for up to 48 hours after death producing new mrna certain genes that are generally inhibited since the end of fetal development may be expressed again at this time clues to the existence of a postmortem transcriptome existed at least since the beginning of the 21st century but the word thanatotranscriptome from thanatos greek for death seems to have been first used in the scientific literature by javan et al in 2015 following the introduction of the concept of the human thanatomicrobiome in 2014 at the 66th annual meeting of the american academy of forensic sciences in seattle washington in 2016 researchers at the university of washington confirmed that up to 2 days 48 hours after the death of mice and zebrafish many genes still functioned changes in the quantities of mrna in the bodies of the dead animals proved that hundreds of genes with very different functions awoke just after death the researchers detected 548 genes that awoke after death in zebrafish and 515 in laboratory mice among these were genes involved in development of the organism including genes that are normally activated only in utero or in ovo in the egg during fetal development the thanatomicrobiome is characterized by a diverse assortment of microorganisms located in internal organs brain heart liver and spleen and blood samples collected after a human dies it is defined as the microbial community of internal body sites created by a successional process whereby trillions of microorganisms populate proliferate andor die within the dead body resulting in temporal modifications in the community composition over time characterization and quantification of the transcriptome in a given dead tissue can identify genetic assets which can be used to determine the regulatory mechanisms and set networks of gene expression the techniques commonly used for simultaneously measuring the concentration of a large number of different types of mrna include microarrays and highthroughput sequencing via rnaseq analysis from a serology postmortem can characterize the transcriptome of a particular tissue cell type or compare the transcriptomes between various experimental conditions such analysis can be complementary to the analysis of

intransitive use of the verb close with no explicit mention of the causer but 1c makes explicit mention of the agent involved in the action the analysis of these different lexical units had a decisive role in the field of generative linguistics during the 1960s the term generative was proposed by noam chomsky in his book syntactic structures published in 1957 the term generative linguistics was based on chomskys generative grammar a linguistic theory that states systematic sets of rules x theory can predict grammatical phrases within a natural language generative linguistics is also known as governmentbinding theory generative linguists of the 1960s including noam chomsky and ernst von glasersfeld believed semantic relations between transitive verbs and intransitive verbs were tied to their independent syntactic organization this meant that they saw a simple verb phrase as encompassing a more complex syntactic structure lexicalist theories became popular during the 1980s and emphasized that a words internal structure was a question of morphology and not of syntax lexicalist theories emphasized that complex words resulting from compounding and derivation of affixes have lexical entries that are derived from morphology rather than resulting from overlapping syntactic and phonological properties as generative linguistics predicts the distinction between generative linguistics and lexicalist theories can be illustrated by considering the transformation of the word destroy to destruction generative linguistics theory states the transformation of destroy → destruction as the nominal nom destroy combined with phonological rules that produce the output destruction views this transformation as independent of the morphology lexicalist theory sees destroy and destruction as having idiosyncratic lexical entries based on their differences in morphology argues that each morpheme contributes specific meaning states that the formation of the complex word destruction is accounted for by a set of lexical rules which are different and independent from syntactic rulesa lexical entry lists the basic properties of either the whole word or the individual properties of the morphemes that make up the word itself the properties of lexical items include their category selection cselection selectional properties sselection also known as semantic selection

consider a category of ascription distinct from de dicto and de re such ascriptions are found with propositional attitudes mental states an agent holds toward a proposition such de se ascriptions occur when an agent holds a mental state towards a proposition about themselves knowing that this proposition is about themselves a sentence such as peter thinks that he is pale where the pronoun he is meant to refer to peter is ambiguous in a way not captured by the de dicto de re distinction such a sentence could report that peter has the following thought i am pale or peter could have the following thought he is pale where it so happens that the pronoun he refers to peter but peter is unaware of it the first meaning expresses a belief de se while the second does not this notion is extensively discussed in the philosophical literature as well as in the theoretical linguistic literature the latter because some linguistic phenomena clearly are sensitive to this notion david lewiss 1979 article attitudes de dicto and de se gave full birth to the topic and his expression of it draws heavily on his distinctive theory of possible worlds but modern discussions on this topic originate with hectorneri castanedas discovery of what he called quasi indexicals or “ quasiindicators ” according to castaneda the speaker of the sentence “ mary believes that she herself is the winner ” uses the quasiindicator “ she herself ” often written “ she∗ ” to express marys firstperson reference to herself ie to mary that sentence would be the speakers way of depicting the proposition that mary would unambiguously express in the first person by “ i am the winner ” a clearer case can be illustrated simply imagine the following scenario peter who is running for office is drunk he is watching an interview of a candidate on tv not realizing that this candidate is himself liking what he hears he says i hope this candidate gets elected having witnessed this one can truthfully report peters hopes by uttering peter hopes that he will get elected where he refers to peter since this candidate indeed refers to peter however one could not report peters hopes by saying peter hopes to get elected this last sentence is only appropriate if peter had a de se hope that is a hope in the first person as if he had said i hope i get elected which is not the case here the study of the notion of belief de se thus includes that of quasiindexicals the linguistic theory of logophoricity and logophoric pronouns and the linguistic and literary'</li><li>'##mal ie near or

deixis concerns itself with the various times involved in and referred to in an utterance this includes time adverbs like now then and soon as well as different verbal tenses a further example is the word tomorrow which denotes the next consecutive day after any day it is used tomorrow when spoken on a day last year denoted a different day from tomorrow when spoken next week time adverbs can be relative to the time when an utterance is made what fillmore calls the encoding time or et or the time when the utterance is heard fillmores decoding time or dt although these are frequently the same time they can differ as in the case of prerecorded broadcasts or correspondence for example if one were to write temporal deictical terms are in italics it is raining now but i hope when you read this

absolute deictic and relative tenses so for example simple english past tense is absolute such as in he wentwhereas the pluperfect is relative to some other deictically specified time as in he had

| 26    | <ul><li>'in physical chemistry and materials science texture is the distribution of crystallographic orientations of a polycrystalline sample it is also part of the geological fabric a sample in which these orientations are fully random is said to have no distinct texture if the crystallographic orientations are not random but have some preferred orientation then the sample has a weak moderate or strong texture the degree is dependent on the percentage of crystals having the preferred orientation texture is seen in almost all engineered materials and can have a great influence on materials properties the texture forms in materials during thermomechanical processes for example during production processes eg rolling consequently the rolling process is often followed by a heat treatment to reduce the amount of unwanted texture controlling the production process in combination with the characterization of texture and the materials microstructure help to determine the materials properties ie the processingmicrostructuretextureproperty relationship also geologic rocks show texture due to their thermomechanic history of formation processes one extreme case is a complete lack of texture a solid with perfectly random crystallite orientation will have isotropic properties at length scales sufficiently larger than the size of the crystallites the opposite extreme is a perfect single crystal which likely has anisotropic properties by geometric necessity texture can be determined by various methods some methods allow a quantitative analysis of the texture while others are only qualitative among the quantitative techniques the most widely used is xray diffraction using texture goniometers followed by the electron backscatter diffraction ebsd method in scanning electron microscopes qualitative analysis can be done by laue photography simple xray diffraction or with a polarized microscope neutron and synchrotron highenergy xray diffraction are suitable for determining textures of bulk materials and in situ analysis whereas laboratory xray diffraction instruments are more appropriate for analyzing textures of thin films texture is often represented using a pole figure in which a specified crystallographic axis or pole from each of a representative number of crystallites is plotted in a stereographic projection along with directions relevant to the materials processing history these directions define the socalled sample reference frame and are because the investigation of textures started from the cold working of metals usually referred to as the rolling direction rd the transverse direction td and the normal direction nd for drawn metal wires the cylindrical fiber axis turned out as the sample direction around which preferred orientation is typically observed see below there are several textures that are commonly found in processed cubic materials they are named either by the scientist that discovered them or

strength adding a small amount of nonmetallic carbon to iron trades its great ductility for the greater strength of an alloy called steel due to its veryhigh strength but still substantial toughness and its ability to be greatly altered by heat treatment steel is one of the most useful and common alloys in modern use by adding chromium to steel its resistance to corrosion can be enhanced creating stainless steel while adding silicon will alter its electrical characteristics producing silicon steel like oil and water a molten metal may not always mix with another element for example pure iron is almost completely insoluble with copper even when the constituents are soluble each will usually have a saturation point beyond which no more of the constituent can be added iron for example can hold a maximum of 667 carbon although the elements of an alloy usually must be soluble in the liquid state they may not always be soluble in the solid state if the metals remain soluble when solid the alloy forms a solid solution becoming a homogeneous structure consisting of identical crystals called a phase if as the mixture cools the constituents become insoluble they may separate to form two or more different types of crystals creating a heterogeneous microstructure of different phases some with more of one constituent than the other however in other alloys the insoluble elements may not separate until after crystallization occurs if cooled very quickly they first crystallize as a homogeneous phase but they are supersaturated with the secondary constituents as time passes the atoms of these supersaturated alloys can separate from the crystal lattice becoming more stable and forming a second phase that serves to reinforce the crystals internally some alloys such as electrum — an alloy of silver and gold — occur naturally meteorites are sometimes made of naturally occurring alloys of iron and nickel but are not native to the earth one of the first alloys made by humans was bronze which is a mixture of the metals tin and copper bronze was an extremely useful alloy to the ancients because it is much stronger and harder than either of its components steel was another common alloy however in ancient times it could only be created as an accidental byproduct from the heating of iron ore in fires smelting during the manufacture of iron other ancient alloys include pewter brass and pig iron in the modern age steel can be created in many forms carbon steel can be made by varying only the carbon content producing soft alloys like mild steel or hard alloys like spring steel alloy steels can be made by adding other elements such as chromium moly'</li></ul>

particular issue that they disputedfinkelstein referred to concrete facts which are not particularly controversial stating that in the case for israel dershowitz attributes to israeli historian benny

responded to finkelsteins reply by stating that such a mistake could not have been intentional as it harmed his own side of the debate obviously the phrase 2000 to 3000 arabs refers either to a subphase of the flight or is a typographical error in this particular context dershowitzs argument is that palestinians left as a result of orders issued by palestinian commanders if in fact 200000 were told to leave instead of 2000 that strengthens my argument considerably in his review of beyond chutzpah echoing finkelsteins criticisms michael desch political science professor at university of

problems with dershowitzs heavy reliance on morris the first is that morris is hardly the leftwing peacenik that dershowitz makes him out to be which means that calling him as a witness in israels

war i in 1914 it was coined by russian writer ilya ehrenburg and later popularized by british marxist historian eric hobsbawm the term refers to the notion that the period reflects a progression of ideas which are characteristic to an understanding of the 19th century in europe the concept is an adaption of fernand braudels 1949 notion of le long seizieme siecle the long 16th century 1450 – 1640 and a recognized category of literary history although a period often broadly and diversely defined by different scholars numerous authors before and after hobsbawms 1995 publication have applied similar forms of book titles or descriptions to indicate a selective time frame for their works such as s ketterings french society 1589 – 1715 – the long seventeenth century e anthony wrigleys british population during the long eighteenth century 1680 – 1840 or d blackbourns the long nineteenth century a history of germany 1780 – 1918 however the term has been used in support of historical

british artist and theorist roy ascott with his essay behaviourist art and the cybernetic vision in the journal cybernetica 1966 – 67 and the american critic and theorist jack burnham in beyond modern

landmark exhibition cybernetic serendipity at the institute of contemporary art in london generative art is art that has been generated composed or constructed in an algorithmic manner through the use of systems defined by computer software algorithms or similar mathematical or mechanical or randomised autonomous processes sonia landy sheridan established generative systems as a program at the school of the art institute of chicago in 1970 in response to social change brought about in part by the computerrobot communications revolution the program which brought artists and scientists together was an effort at turning the artists passive role into an active one by promoting the investigation of contemporary scientific — technological systems and their relationship to art and life unlike copier art which was a simple commercial spinoff generative systems was actually involved in the development of elegant yet simple systems intended for creative use by the general population generative systems artists attempted to bridge the gap between elite and novice by directing the line of communication between the two thus bringing first generation information to greater numbers of people and bypassing the entrepreneur process art is an artistic movement as well as a creative sentiment and world view where the end product of art and craft the objet d ’ art is not the principal focus the process in process art refers to the process of the formation of art the gathering sorting collating associating and patterning process art is concerned with the actual doing art as a rite

music visualisation a feature found in electronic music visualizers and media player software generates animated imagery based on a piece of music the imagery is usually generated and rendered in real time and in a way synchronized with the music as it is played visualization techniques range from simple ones eg a simulation of an oscilloscope display to elaborate ones which often include a number of composited effects the changes in the musics loudness and frequency spectrum are among the properties used as input to the visualization effective music visualization aims to attain a high degree of visual correlation between a musical tracks spectral characteristics such as frequency and amplitude and the objects or components of the visual image being rendered and displayed music visualization can be defined in contrast to previous existing pregenerated music plus visualization combinations as for example music videos by its characteristic as being realtime generated another possible distinction is seen by some in the ability of some music visualization systems such as geiss milkdrop to create different visualizations for each song or audio every time the program is run in contrast to other forms of music visualization such as music videos or a laser lighting display which always show the same visualization music visualization may be achieved in a 2d or a 3d coordinate system where up to six dimensions can be modified the 4th 5th and 6th dimensions being color intensity and transparency the first electronic music visualizer was the atari video music

it is mainly the participants themselves who are responsible for collecting and recording data in elicitation studies participants capture media as soon as the phenomenon occurs the media is usually

of daily experiences and behaviors there are some limitations of diary studies mainly due to their characteristics of reliance on memory and selfreport measures there is low control low participation

power than ever ran wild in any earthly woods and the world will be all the better when this place earth knows him no more in 1860 the physician john crawfurd and the anthropologist james hunt identified the racial stereotype of the noble savage as an example of scientific racism yet as advocates of polygenism — that each race is a distinct species of man — crawfurd and hunt dismissed the arguments of their opponents by accusing them of being proponents of rousseaus noble savage later in his career crawfurd reintroduced the noble savage term to modern anthropology and deliberately ascribed coinage of the term to jeanjacques rousseau in war before civilization the myth of the peaceful savage 1996 the archaeologist lawrence h keeley said that the widespread myth that civilized humans have fallen from grace from a simple primeval happiness a peaceful golden age is contradicted and refuted by archeologic evidence that indicates that violence was common practice in early human societies that the noble savage paradigm has warped anthropological literature to political ends moreover the anthropologist roger sandall likewise accused anthropologists of exalting the noble savage above civilized man by way of designer tribalism a form of romanticised primitivism that dehumanises indigenous peoples into the cultural stereotype of the indigene peoples who live a primitive way of life demarcated and limited by tradition which discouraged indigenous peoples from cultural assimilation into the dominant western culture in the prehistory of warfare misled by ethnography 2006 the

dated to between 1476 and 1510 the artifact has been studied by roman art authority bernard andreae director emeritus of the german institute of archaeology in rome italy and austrian anthropologist robert von heinegeldern both of whom stated that the style of the artifact was compatible with small roman sculptures of the 2nd century if genuine and if not placed there after 1492 the pottery found with it dates to between 1476 and 1510 the find provides evidence for at least a onetime contact between the old and new worldsaccording to arizona state universitys michael e smith a leading mesoamerican scholar named john paddock used to tell his classes in the years before he died that the artifact was planted as a joke by hugo moedano a student who originally worked on the site despite speaking with individuals who knew the original discoverer garcia payon and moedano smith says he has been unable to confirm or reject this claim though he remains skeptical smith concedes he cannot

handling is the stage of crop production immediately following harvest including cooling cleaning sorting and packing the instant a crop is removed from the ground or separated from its parent plant it begins to deteriorate postharvest treatment largely determines final quality whether a crop is sold for fresh consumption or used as an ingredient in a processed food product the most important goals of postharvest handling are keeping the product cool to avoid moisture loss and slow down undesirable chemical changes and avoiding physical damage such as bruising to delay spoilage sanitation is also an important factor to reduce the possibility of pathogens that could be carried by fresh produce for example as residue from contaminated washing water after the field postharvest processing is usually continued in a packing house this can be a simple shed providing shade and running water or a largescale sophisticated mechanised facility with conveyor belts automated sorting and packing stations walkin coolers and the like in mechanised harvesting processing may also begin as part of the actual harvest process with initial cleaning and sorting performed by the harvesting machinery initial postharvest storage conditions are critical to maintaining quality each crop has an optimum range of storage temperature and humidity also certain crops cannot be effectively stored together as unwanted chemical interactions can result various methods of highspeed cooling and sophisticated refrigerated and atmospherecontrolled environments are employed to prolong freshness particularly in largescale operations once harvested vegetables and fruits are subject to the active process of degradation numerous biochemical processes continuously change the original composition of the crop until it becomes unmarketable the period during which consumption is considered acceptable is defined as the time of postharvest shelf lifepostharvest shelf life is typically determined by objective methods that determine the overall appearance taste flavor and texture of the commodity these methods usually include a combination of sensorial biochemical mechanical and colorimetric optical measurements a recent study attempted and failed to discover a biochemical marker and fingerprint methods as indices for freshness postharvest physiology is the scientific study of the plant physiology of living plant tissues after picking it has direct applications to postharvest handling in establishing the storage and transport conditions that best prolong shelf life an example of the importance of the field to postharvest handling is the discovery that ripening of fruit can be delayed and thus their storage prolonged by preventing fruit tissue respiration this insight allowed scientists to bring to bear their knowledge of the fundamental principles and mechanisms of respiration leading to postharvest storage techniques such as cold storage gaseous storage

primarily due to intentional human activity cultivated plant taxonomists do however work with all kinds of plants in cultivation cultivated plant taxonomy is one part of the study of horticultural botany which is mostly carried out in botanical gardens large nurseries universities or government departments areas of special interest for the cultivated plant taxonomist include searching for and recording new plants suitable for cultivation plant hunting communicating with and advising the general public on matters concerning the classification and nomenclature of cultivated plants and carrying out original research on these topics describing the cultivated plants of particular regions horticultural floras maintaining databases herbaria and other information about cultivated plants much of the work of the cultivated plant taxonomist is concerned with the naming of plants as prescribed by two plant nomenclatural codes the provisions of the international code of nomenclature for algae fungi and plants botanical code serve primarily scientific ends and the objectives of the scientific community while those of the international code of nomenclature for cultivated plants cultivated plant code are designed to serve both scientific and utilitarian ends by making provision for the names of plants used in commerce — the cultigens that have arisen in agriculture forestry and horticulture these names sometimes called variety names are not in latin but are added onto the scientific latin names and they assist communication among the community of foresters farmers and horticulturists the history of cultivated plant taxonomy can be traced from the first plant selections that occurred during the agrarian neolithic revolution to the first recorded naming of human plant selections by the romans the naming and classification of cultigens followed a similar path to that of all plants until the establishment of the first cultivated plant code in 1953 which formally established the cultigen classification category of cultivar since that time the classification and naming of cultigens has followed its own path cultivated plant taxonomy has been distinguished from the taxonomy of other plants in at least five ways firstly there is a distinction made according to where the plants are growing — that is whether they are wild or cultivated this is alluded to by the cultivated plant code which specifies in its title that it is dealing with cultivated plants secondly a distinction is made according to how the plants originated this is indicated in principle 2 of the cultivated plant code which defines the scope of the code as plants whose origin or selection is primarily due to the intentional actions of mankind — plants that have evolved under natural selection with human assistance thirdly cultivated plant taxonomy is concerned with plant variation that requires the use of special classification'</li></ul> |

mirrorlike direction it is one of the important parameters that are used to describe the visual appearance of an object other categories of visual appearance related to the perception of regular or diffuse reflection and transmission of light have been organized under the concept of cesia in an order system with three variables including gloss among the involved aspects the factors that affect gloss are the refractive index of the material the angle of incident light and the surface topography apparent gloss depends on the amount of specular reflection – light reflected from the surface in an equal amount and the symmetrical angle to the one of incoming light – in comparison with diffuse reflection – the amount of light scattered into other directions when light illuminates an object it interacts with it in a number of ways absorbed within it largely responsible for colour transmitted through it dependent on the surface transparency and opacity scattered from or within it diffuse reflection haze and transmission specularly reflected from it glossvariations in surface texture directly influence the level of specular reflection objects with a smooth surface ie highly polished or containing coatings with finely dispersed pigments appear shiny to the eye due to a large amount of light being reflected in a specular direction whilst rough surfaces reflect no specular light as the light is scattered in other directions and therefore appears dull the image forming qualities of these surfaces are much lower making any reflections appear blurred and distorted substrate material type also influences the gloss of a surface nonmetallic materials ie plastics etc produce a higher level of reflected light when illuminated at a greater illumination angle due to light being absorbed into the material or being diffusely scattered depending on the colour of the material metals do not suffer from this effect producing higher amounts of reflection at any angle the fresnel formula

surface and surroundings pfund was also the first to suggest that more than one method was needed to analyze gloss correctly in 1937 hunter as part of his research paper on gloss described six different visual criteria attributed to apparent gloss the following diagrams show the relationships between an incident beam of light i a specularly reflected beam s a diffusely reflected beam d and a nearspecularly reflected beam b specular gloss – the perceived brightness and the brilliance of highlights defined as the ratio of the light reflected from a surface at an equal but opposite angle to that incident on the surface sheen – the perceived shininess at low grazing angles defined as the gloss at grazing angles of incidence and viewing contrast gloss – the perceived brightness of specularly and diffusely reflecting areas defined as the ratio of the specularly reflected light to that diffusely reflected normal to the surface absence of bloom – the perceived cloudiness in reflections near the specular direction defined as a measure of the absence of haze or a milky appearance adjacent to the specularly reflected light haze is the inverse of absenceofbloom distinctness of image gloss – identified by the distinctness of images reflected in surfaces defined as the sharpness of the specularly reflected light surface texture gloss – identified by the lack of surface texture and surface blemishesdefined as the uniformity of the surface in terms of visible texture and defects orange peel scratches inclusions etc a surface can therefore appear very shiny if it has a welldefined specular reflectance at the specular angle the perception of an image reflected in the surface can be degraded by appearing unsharp or by appearing to be of low contrast the former is characterised by the measurement of the distinctnessofimage and the latter by the haze or contrast gloss in his paper hunter also noted the importance of three main factors in the measurement of gloss the amount of light reflected in the specular direction the amount and way in which the light is spread around the specular direction the change in specular reflection as the specular angle changesfor his research he used a glossmeter with a specular angle of 45° as did most of the first photoelectric methods of that type later studies however by hunter and judd in 1939 on a larger number of painted samples concluded that the 60 degree geometry was the best angle to use so as to provide the closest correlation to a visual observation standardisation in gloss measurement was led by hunter

number of long tubelike structures that carry bile and is present in most vertebrates bile is required for the digestion of food and is secreted by the liver into passages that carry bile toward the hepatic duct it joins the cystic duct carrying bile to and from the gallbladder to form the common bile duct which then opens into the intestine the top half of the common bile duct is associated with the liver while the bottom half of the common bile duct is associated with the pancreas through which it passes on its way to the intestine it opens into the part of the intestine called the duodenum via the ampulla of vater the biliary tree see below is the whole network of various sized ducts branching through the liver the path is as follows bile canaliculi → canals of hering → interlobular bile ducts → intrahepatic bile ducts → left and right hepatic ducts merge to form → common hepatic duct exits liver and joins → cystic duct from gall bladder forming → common bile duct → joins with pancreatic duct → forming ampulla of vater → enters duodenum inflation of a balloon in the bile duct causes through the vagus nerve activation of the brain stem and the insular cortex prefrontal

are allowing their political views to determine the outcome of cases before them it is a serious matter to suggest that any branch of government is deliberately acting in a manner that is inconsistent with its constitutional role1such accusations often arise in response to rulings involving the canadian charter of rights and freedoms specifically rulings that have favoured the extension of gay rights have prompted accusations of judicial activism justice rosalie abella is a particularly common target of those who perceive activism on the supreme court of canada benchthe judgment chaoulli v quebec 2005 1 rcs which declared unconstitutional the prohibition of private healthcare insurance and challenged the principle of canadian universal health care in quebec was deemed by many as a prominent example of judicial activism the judgment was written by justice deschamps with a tight majority of 4 against 3 in the cassis de dijon case the european court of justice ruled the german laws prohibiting sales of liquors with alcohol percentages between 15 and 25 conflicted with eu laws this ruling confirmed that eu law has primacy over memberstate law when the treaties are unclear they leave room for the court to interpret them in different ways when eu treaties are negotiated it is difficult to get all governments to agree on a clear set of laws in order to get a compromise governments agree to leave a decision on an issue to the courtthe court can only practice judicial activism to the extent the eu governments leave room for interpretation in the treatiesthe court

tobacco usage the mode of virally induced tumors can be divided into two acutely transforming or slowly transforming in acutely transforming viruses the viral particles carry a gene that encodes for an overactive oncogene called viraloncogene vonc and the infected cell is transformed as soon as vonc is expressed in contrast in slowly transforming viruses the virus genome is inserted especially as viral genome insertion is an obligatory part of retroviruses near a protooncogene in the host genome the viral promoter or other transcription regulation elements in turn cause overexpression of that protooncogene which in turn induces uncontrolled cellular proliferation because viral genome insertion is not specific to protooncogenes and the chance of insertion near that protooncogene is low

systems automatically by automatically one means that no human intervention is needed between input and output and thus that no knowledge of the method by the user is needed there are also several other software packages which may be useful for solving zerodimensional systems some of them are listed after the automatic solvers the maple function rootfindingisolate takes as input any polynomial system over the rational numbers if some coefficients are floating point numbers they are converted to rational numbers and outputs the real solutions represented either optionally as intervals of rational numbers or as floating point approximations of arbitrary precision if the system is not zero dimensional this is signaled as an error internally this solver designed by f rouillier computes first a grobner basis and then a rational univariate representation from which the required approximation of the solutions are deduced it works routinely for systems having up to a few hundred complex solutions the rational univariate representation may be computed with maple function groebnerrationalunivariaterepresentation to extract all the complex solutions from a rational univariate representation one may use mpsolve which computes the complex roots of univariate polynomials to any precision it is recommended to run mpsolve several times doubling the precision each time until solutions remain stable as the substitution of the roots in the equations of the input variables can be highly unstable the second solver is phcpack written under the direction of j verschelde phcpack implements the homotopy continuation method this solver computes the isolated complex solutions of polynomial systems having as many equations as variables the third solver is bertini written by d j bates j d hauenstein a j sommese and c w wampler bertini uses numerical homotopy continuation with adaptive precision in addition to computing zerodimensional solution sets both phcpack and bertini

compressibility the position of the other end of the line is located by blade or passage flow separation there is a welldefined lowflow boundary marked on the map as a stall or surge line at which blade stall occurs due to positive incidence separation not marked as such on maps for turbochargers and gas turbine engines is a more gradually approached highflow boundary at which passages choke when the gas velocity reaches the speed of sound this boundary is identified for industrial compressors as overload choke sonic or stonewall the approach to this flow limit is indicated by the speed lines becoming more vertical other areas of the map are regions where fluctuating vane stalling may interact with blade structural modes leading to failure ie rotating stall causing metal fatigue different applications move over their particular map along different paths an example map with no operating lines is shown as a pictorial reference with the stallsurge line on the left and the steepening speed lines towards choke and overload on the right maps have similar features and general shape because they all apply to machines with spinning vanes which use similar principles for pumping a compressible fluid not all machines have stationary vanes centrifugal compressors may have either vaned or vaneless diffusers however a compressor operating as part of a gas turbine or turbocharged engine behaves differently to an industrial compressor because its flow and pressure characteristics have to match those of its driving turbine and other engine components such as power turbine or jet nozzle for a gas turbine and for a turbocharger the engine airflow which depends on engine speed and charge pressure a link between a gas turbine compressor and its engine can be shown with lines of constant engine temperature ratio ie the effect of fuellingincreased turbine temperature which raises the running line as the temperature ratio increases one manifestation of different behaviour appears in the choke region on the righthand side of a map it is a noload condition in a gas turbine turbocharger or industrial axial compressor but overload in an industrial centrifugal compressor hiereth et al shows a turbocharger compressor fullload or maximum fuelling curve runs up close to the surge line a gas turbine compressor fullload line also runs close to the surge line the industrial compressor overload is a capacity limit and requires high power levels to pass the high flow rates required excess power is available to inadvertently take the compressor beyond the overload limit to a hazardous condition'</li><li>'a thermodynamic instrument is any device for the measurement of thermodynamic systems in order for a thermodynamic parameter or physical quantity to be truly defined a technique for its measurement must be specified for example the ultimate definition of temperature is what a thermometer reads the question follows – what is a thermometer there are two types of thermodynamic instruments the meter and the reservoir a thermodynamic meter is any device which measures any parameter of a thermodynamic system a thermodynamic reservoir is a system which is so large that it does not appreciably alter its state parameters when brought into contact with the test system two general complementary tools are the meter and the reservoir it is important that these two types of instruments are distinct a meter does not perform its task accurately if it behaves like a reservoir of the state variable it is trying to measure if for example a thermometer were to act as a temperature reservoir it would alter the temperature of the system being measured and the reading would be incorrect ideal meters have no effect on the state variables of the system they are measuring a meter is a thermodynamic system which displays some aspect of its thermodynamic state to the observer the nature of its contact with the system it is measuring can be controlled and it is sufficiently small that it does not appreciably affect the state of the system being measured the theoretical thermometer described below is just such a meter in some cases the thermodynamic parameter is actually defined in terms of an idealized measuring instrument for example the zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with a third body they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other this principle as noted by james maxwell in 1872 asserts that it is possible to measure temperature an idealized thermometer is a sample of an ideal gas at constant pressure from the ideal gas law the volume of such a sample can be used as an indicator of temperature in this manner it defines temperature although pressure is defined mechanically a pressuremeasuring device called a barometer may also be constructed from a sample of an ideal gas held at a constant temperature a calorimeter is a device which is used to measure and define the internal energy of a system some common thermodynamic meters are thermometer a device which measures temperature as described above barometer a device which measures pressure an ideal gas barometer may be constructed by mechanically connecting an ideal gas to the system being'</li><li>'a transcritical cycle is a closed thermodynamic cycle where the working fluid goes through both subcritical and supercritical states in particular for power cycles the working fluid is kept in the liquid region during the compression phase and in vapour andor supercritical conditions during the expansion phase the ultrasupercritical steam rankine cycle represents a widespread transcritical cycle in the electricity generation field from fossil fuels where water is used as working fluid other typical applications of transcritical cycles to the purpose of power generation are represented by organic rankine cycles which are especially suitable to exploit low temperature heat sources such as geothermal energy heat recovery applications or waste to energy plants with respect to subcritical cycles the transcritical cycle exploits by definition higher pressure ratios a feature that ultimately yields higher efficiencies for the majority of the working fluids considering then also supercritical cycles as a valid alternative to the transcritical ones the latter cycles are capable of achieving higher specific works due to the limited relative importance of the work of compression work this evidences the extreme potential of transcritical cycles to the purpose of producing the most power measurable in terms of the cycle specific work with the least expenditure measurable in terms of spent energy to compress the working fluid while in single level supercritical cycles both pressure levels are above the critical pressure of the working fluid in transcritical cycles one pressure level is above the critical pressure and the other is below in the refrigeration field carbon dioxide co2 is increasingly considered of interest as refrigerant in trascritical cycles the pressure of the working fluid at the outlet of the pump is higher than the critical pressure while the inlet conditions are close to the saturated liquid pressure at the given minimum temperature during the heating phase which is typically considered an isobaric process the working fluid overcomes the critical temperature moving thus from the liquid to the supercritical phase without the occurrence of any evaporation process a significant difference between subcritical and transcritical cycles due to this significant difference in the heating phase the heat injection into the cycle is significantly more efficient from a second law perspective since the average temperature difference between the hot source and the working fluid is reducedas a consequence the maximum temperatures reached by the cold source can be higher at fixed hot source characteristics therefore the expansion process can be accomplished exploiting higher pressure ratios which yields higher power production modern ultrasupercritical rankine cycles can reach maximum temperatures up to 620°c exploiting the optimized heat introduction process as in'</li></ul>

hand nanofertilizers are able to amend this issue because of their high absorption efficiency into the targeted plant which is owed to their remarkably high surface area to volume ratios in a study done on the use of phosphorus nanofertilizers absorption efficiencies of up to 906 were achieved making them a highly desirable fertilizer material another beneficial aspect of using nanofertilizers is the ability to provide slow release of nutrients into the plant over a 4050 day time period rather than the 410 day period of conventional fertilizers this again proves to be beneficial economically requiring less resources to be devoted to fertilizer transport and less amount of total fertilizer needed as expected with greater ability for nutrient uptake crops have been found to exhibit greater health when using nanofertilizers over conventional ones one study analyzed the effect of a potatospecific nano fertilizer composed of a variety of elements including k p n and mg in comparison to a control group using their conventional counterparts the study found that the potato crop which used the nanofertilizer had an increased crop yield in comparison to the control as well as more efficient water use and agronomic efficiency defined as units of yield increased per unit of nutrient applied in addition the study found that the nano fertilized potatoes had a higher nutrient content such as increased starch and ascorbic acid content another study analyzed the use of ironbased nanofertilizers in black eyed peas and determined that root stability increased dramatically in the use of nano fertilizer as well as chlorophyll content in leaves thus improving photosynthesis a different study found that zinc nanofertilizers enhanced photosynthesis rate in maize crops measured through soluble carbohydrate concentration likely as a result of the role of zinc in the photosynthesis processmuch work needs to be done in the future to make nanofertilizers a consistent viable alternative to conventional fertilizers effective legislation needs to be drafted regulating the use of nanofertilizers drafting standards for consistent quality and targeted release of nutrients further more studies need to be done to understand the full benefits and potential downsides of nanofertilizers to gain the full picture in approach of using nanotechnology to benefit

| 9     | <ul><li>'a circular chromosome is a chromosome in bacteria archaea mitochondria and chloroplasts in the form of a molecule of circular dna unlike the linear chromosome of most eukaryotes most prokaryote chromosomes contain a circular dna molecule – there are no free ends to the dna free ends would otherwise create significant challenges to cells with respect to dna replication and stability cells that do contain chromosomes with dna ends or telomeres most eukaryotes have acquired elaborate mechanisms to overcome these challenges however a circular chromosome can provide other challenges for cells after replication the two progeny circular chromosomes can sometimes remain interlinked or tangled and they must be resolved so that each cell inherits one complete copy of the chromosome during cell division the circular bacteria chromosome replication is best understood in the wellstudied bacteria escherichia coli and bacillus subtilis chromosome replication proceeds in three major stages initiation elongation and termination the initiation stage starts with the ordered assembly of initiator proteins at the origin region of the chromosome called oric these assembly stages are regulated to ensure that chromosome replication occurs only once in each cell cycle during the elongation phase of replication the enzymes that were assembled at oric during initiation proceed along each arm replichore of the chromosome in opposite directions away from the oric replicating the dna to create two identical copies this process is known as bidirectional replication the entire assembly of molecules involved in dna replication on each arm is called a replisome at the forefront of the replisome is a dna helicase that unwinds the two strands of dna creating a moving replication fork the two unwound single strands of dna serve as templates for dna polymerase which moves with the helicase together with other proteins to synthesise a complementary copy of each strand in this way two identical copies of the original dna are created eventually the two replication forks moving around the circular chromosome meet in a specific zone of the chromosome approximately opposite oric called the terminus region the elongation enzymes then disassemble and the two daughter chromosomes are resolved before cell division is completed the e coli origin of replication called oric consists of dna sequences that are recognised by the dnaa protein which is highly conserved amongst different bacterial species dnaa binding to the origin initiates the regulated recruitment of other enzymes and proteins that will eventually lead to the establishment of two complete replisomes for bidirectional replicationdna sequence elements within oric that are important for its function include dnaa boxes a 9mer repeat with a highly'</li><li>'methods are carried out on the distance matrices an important point is that the scale of data is extensive and further approaches must be taken to identify patterns from the available information tools used to analyze the data include vamps qiime mothur and dada2 or unoise3 for denoising metagenomics is also used extensively for studying microbial communities in metagenomic sequencing dna is recovered directly from environmental samples in an untargeted manner with the goal of obtaining an unbiased sample from all genes of all members of the community recent studies use shotgun sanger sequencing or pyrosequencing to recover the sequences of the reads the reads can then be assembled into contigs to determine the phylogenetic identity of a sequence it is compared to available full genome sequences using methods such as blast one drawback of this approach is that many members of microbial communities do not have a representative sequenced genome but this applies to 16s rrna amplicon sequencing as well and is a fundamental problem with shotgun sequencing it can be resolved by having a high coverage 50100x of the unknown genome effectively doing a de novo genome assembly as soon as there is a complete genome of an unknown organism available it can be compared phylogenetically and the organism put into its place in the tree of life by creating new taxa an emerging approach is to combine shotgun sequencing with proximityligation data hic to assemble complete microbial genomes without culturingdespite the fact that metagenomics is limited by the availability of reference sequences one significant advantage of metagenomics over targeted amplicon sequencing is that metagenomics data can elucidate the functional potential of the community dna targeted gene surveys cannot do this as they only reveal the phylogenetic relationship between the same gene from different organisms functional analysis is done by comparing the recovered sequences to databases of metagenomic annotations such as kegg the metabolic pathways that these genes are involved in can then be predicted with tools such as mgrast camera and imgm metatranscriptomics studies have been performed to study the gene expression of microbial communities through methods such as the

a t6ss that appears dedicated for eukaryotic targeting the t6ss of plant pathogen xanthomonas citri protects it from predatory amoeba dictyostelium discoideum a wide range of gramnegative bacteria have been shown to have antibacterial t6sss including opportunistic pathogens such as pseudomonas aeruginosa obligate commensal species that inhabit the human gut bacteroides spp and plantassociated bacteria such as agrobacterium tumefaciens these systems exert antibacterial activity via the function of their secreted substrates all characterized bacterialtargeting t6ss proteins act as toxins either by killing or preventing the growth of target cells the mechanisms of toxicity toward target cells exhibited by t6ss substrates are diverse but typically involve targeting of highly conserved bacterial structures including degradation of the cell wall through amidase or glycohydrolase activity disruption of cell membranes through lipase activity or pore formation cleavage of dna and degradation of the essential metabolite nad t6sspositive bacterial species prevent t6ssmediated intoxication towards self and kin cells by producing immunity proteins specific to each secreted toxin the immunity proteins function by binding to the toxin proteins often at their active site thereby blocking their activity some research has gone into regulation of t6ss by two component systems in p aeruginosa it has been observed that the gacsrsm twocomponent system is involved in type vi secretion system regulation this system regulates the expression of rsm small regulatory rna molecules and has also been implicated in biofilm formation upon the gacsrsm pathway stimulation an increase in rsm molecules leads to inhibition of mrnabinding protein rsma rsma is a translational inhibitor that binds to sequences near the ribosomebinding site for t6ss gene expression this level of regulation has also been observed in p fluorescens and p syringae there are various examples in which quorum

| 8     | <ul><li>'in radio communication and avionics a conformal antenna or conformal array is a flat array antenna which is designed to conform or follow some prescribed shape for example a flat curving antenna which is mounted on or embedded in a curved surface it consists of multiple individual antennas mounted on or in the curved surface which work together as a single antenna to transmit or receive radio waves conformal antennas were developed in the 1980s as avionics antennas integrated into the curving skin of military aircraft to reduce aerodynamic drag replacing conventional antenna designs which project from the aircraft surface military aircraft and missiles are the largest application of conformal antennas but they are also used in some civilian aircraft military ships and land vehicles as the cost of the required processing technology comes down they are being considered for use in civilian applications such as train antennas car radio antennas and cellular base station antennas to save space and also to make the antenna less visually intrusive by integrating it into existing objects conformal antennas are a form of phased array antenna they are composed of an array of many identical small flat antenna elements such as dipole horn or patch antennas covering the surface at each antenna the current from the transmitter passes through a phase shifter device which are all controlled by a microprocessor computer by controlling the phase of the feed current the nondirectional radio waves emitted by the individual antennas can be made to combine in front of the antenna by the process of interference forming a strong beam or beams of radio waves pointed in any desired direction in a receiving antenna the weak individual radio signals received by each antenna element are combined in the correct phase to enhance signals coming from a particular direction so the antenna can be made sensitive to the signal from a particular station and reject interfering signals from other directions in a conventional phased array the individual antenna elements are mounted on a flat surface in a conformal antenna they are mounted on a curved surface and the phase shifters also compensate for the different phase shifts caused by the varying path lengths of the radio waves due to the location of the individual antennas on the curved surface because the individual antenna elements must be small conformal arrays are typically limited to high frequencies in the uhf or microwave range where the wavelength of the waves is small enough that small antennas can be used'</li><li>'autopilot are tightly controlled and extensive test procedures are put in place some autopilots also use design diversity in this safety feature critical software processes will not only run on separate computers and possibly even using different architectures but each computer will run software created by different engineering teams often being programmed in different programming languages it is generally considered unlikely that different engineering teams will make the same mistakes as the software becomes more expensive and complex design diversity is becoming less common because fewer engineering companies can afford it the flight control computers on the space shuttle used this design there were five computers four of which redundantly ran identical software and a fifth backup running software that was developed independently the software on the fifth system provided only the basic functions needed to fly the shuttle further reducing any possible commonality with the software running on the four primary systems a stability augmentation system sas is another type of automatic flight control system however instead of maintaining the aircraft required altitude or flight path the sas will move the aircraft control surfaces to damp unacceptable motions sas automatically stabilizes the aircraft in one or more axes the most common type of sas is the yaw damper which is used to reduce the dutch roll tendency of sweptwing aircraft some yaw dampers are part of the autopilot system while others are standalone systemsyaw dampers use a sensor to detect how fast the aircraft is rotating either a gyroscope or a pair of accelerometers a computeramplifier and an actuator the sensor detects when the aircraft begins the yawing part of dutch roll a computer processes the signal from the sensor to determine the rudder deflection required to damp the motion the computer tells the actuator to move the rudder in the opposite direction to the motion since the rudder has to oppose the motion to reduce it the dutch roll is damped and the aircraft becomes stable about the yaw axis because dutch roll is an instability that is inherent in all sweptwing aircraft most sweptwing aircraft need some sort of yaw damper there are two types of yaw damper the series yaw damper and the parallel yaw damper the actuator of a parallel yaw damper will move the rudder independently of the pilots rudder pedals while the actuator of a series yaw damper is clutched to the rudder control quadrant and will result in pedal movement when the rudder moves some aircraft have stability augmentation systems that will stabilize the aircraft in more than a single axis the boeing b52 for example requires both pitch and yaw sas in order to provide a stable

left multiplication when the elements of rn are column vectors and on elements of rm via right multiplication when they are row vectors the formula for left multiplication a special case of matrix

human societies on the natural environment social ecology but also as a new model for sustainable civilization from the ecological point of view integral ecology which implies making changes on economic social and cultural structuresaccording to social movement theorists ron ayerman and andrew jamison there are three broad dimensions of environmentally related movements cosmological technological and organizational in ecopedagogy these dimensions are outlined by richard kahn 2010 as the following the cosmological dimension focuses on how ecoliteracy ie understanding the natural systems that sustain life can transform people ’ s worldviews for example assumptions about society ’ s having the right to exploit nature can be transformed into understanding of the need for ecological balance to support society in the long term the success of such ‘ cosmological ’ thinking transformations can be assessed by the degree to which such paradigm shifts are adopted by the public the technological dimension is twofold critiquing the set of polluting technologies that have contributed to traditional development as well as some which are used or misused under the pretext of sustainable development and promoting clean technologies that do not interfere with ecological and social balance the organizational dimension emphasizes that knowledge should be of and for the people thus academics should be in dialogue with public discourse and social movements ecopedagogy is not the collection of theories or practices developed by any particular set of individuals rather akin to the world social forum and other related forms of contemporary popular education strategies it is a worldwide association of critical educators theorists nongovernmental and

are based on textual theory mikhail bakhtin and julia kristeva chapter 8 is titled evaluating the book as a whole the book review and the first heading is books as tools basically critical reading is related to epistemological issues hermeneutics eg the version developed by hansgeorg gadamer has demonstrated that the way we read and interpret texts is dependent on our preunderstanding and prejudices human knowledge is always an interpretative clarification of the world not a pure interestfree theory hermeneutics may thus be understood as a theory about critical reading this field was until recently associated with the humanities not with science this situation changed when thomas samuel kuhn published his book 1962 the structure of scientific revolutions which can be seen as an hermeneutic interpretation of the sciences because it conceives the scientists as governed by assumptions which are historically embedded and linguistically mediated activities organized around paradigms that direct the conceptualization and investigation of their studies scientific revolutions imply that one paradigm replaces another and introduces a new set of theories approaches and definitions according to mallery hurwitz duffy 1992 the notion of a paradigmcentered scientific community is analogous to gadamers notion of a linguistically encoded social tradition in this way hermeneutics challenge the positivist view that science can cumulate objective facts observations are always made on the background of theoretical assumptions they are theory dependent by conclusion

immunohistochemical staining of tissue sections as first described by albert coons in 1941 however immunostaining now encompasses a broad range of techniques used in histology cell biology and molecular biology that use antibodybased staining methods immunohistochemistry or ihc staining of tissue sections or immunocytochemistry which is the staining of cells is perhaps the most commonly applied immunostaining technique while the first cases of ihc staining used fluorescent dyes see immunofluorescence other nonfluorescent methods using enzymes such as peroxidase see immunoperoxidase staining and alkaline phosphatase are now used these enzymes are capable of catalysing reactions that give a coloured product that is easily detectable by light microscopy alternatively radioactive elements can be used as labels and the immunoreaction can be visualized by autoradiographytissue preparation or fixation is essential for the preservation of cell morphology and tissue architecture inappropriate or prolonged fixation may significantly diminish the antibody binding capability many antigens can be successfully demonstrated in formalinfixed paraffinembedded tissue sections however some antigens will not survive even moderate amounts of aldehyde fixation under these conditions tissues should be rapidly fresh frozen in liquid nitrogen and cut with a cryostat the disadvantages of frozen sections include poor morphology poor resolution at higher magnifications difficulty in cutting over paraffin sections and the need for frozen storage alternatively vibratome sections do not require the tissue to be processed through organic solvents or high heat which can destroy the antigenicity or disrupted by freeze thawing the disadvantage of vibratome sections is that the sectioning process is slow and difficult with soft and poorly fixed tissues and that chatter marks or vibratome lines are often apparent in the sectionsthe detection of many antigens can be dramatically improved by antigen retrieval methods that act by breaking some of the protein crosslinks formed by fixation to uncover hidden antigenic sites this can be accomplished by heating for varying lengths of times heat induced epitope retrieval or hier or using enzyme digestion proteolytic induced epitope retrieval or pierone of the main difficulties with ihc staining is overcoming specific or nonspecific

antibodies can target tumor cells or abnormal cells in the body that are recognized as body cells but are debilitating to ones health immunotherapy developed in the 1970s following the discovery of the structure of antibodies and the development of hybridoma technology which provided the first reliable source of monoclonal antibodies these advances allowed for the specific targeting of tumors both in vitro and in vivo initial research on malignant neoplasms found mab therapy of limited and generally shortlived success with blood malignancies treatment also had to be tailored to each individual patient which was impracticable in routine clinical settingsfour major antibody types that have been developed are murine chimeric humanised and human antibodies of each type are distinguished by suffixes on their name initial therapeutic antibodies were murine analogues suffix omab these antibodies have a short halflife in vivo due to immune complex formation limited penetration into tumour sites and inadequately recruit host effector functions chimeric and humanized antibodies have generally replaced them in therapeutic antibody applications understanding of proteomics has proven essential in identifying novel tumour targetsinitially murine antibodies were obtained by hybridoma technology for which jerne kohler and milstein received a nobel prize however the dissimilarity between murine and human immune systems led to the clinical failure of these antibodies except in some specific circumstances major problems associated with murine antibodies included reduced stimulation of cytotoxicity and the formation of complexes after repeated administration which resulted in mild allergic reactions and sometimes anaphylactic shock hybridoma technology has been replaced by recombinant dna technology transgenic mice and phage display to reduce murine antibody immunogenicity attacks by the immune system against the antibody murine molecules were engineered to remove immunogenic content and to increase immunologic efficiency this was initially achieved by the production of chimeric suffix ximab and humanized antibodies suffix zumab chimeric antibodies are composed of murine variable regions fused onto human constant regions taking human gene sequences from the kappa light chain and the igg1 heavy chain results in antibodies that are approximately 65 human this reduces immunogenicity and thus increases serum halflifehumanised antibodies are produced by grafting murine hypervariable regions on amino acid domains'</li></ul>

or counting equivalence relations on n with exactly x classes indeed for any surjective function f n → x the relation of having the same image under f is such an equivalence relation and it does not change when a permutation of x is subsequently applied conversely one can turn such an equivalence relation into a surjective function by assigning the elements of x in some manner to the x

described using a recursion relation or using generating functions but unlike binomial coefficients there is no closed formula for these numbers that does not involve a summation surjective functions from n to x for each surjective function f n → x its orbit under permutations of x has x elements since composition on the left with two distinct permutations of x never gives the same function on n the permutations must differ at some element of x which can always be written as fi for some i ∈ n and the compositions will then differ at i it follows that the number for this case is x times the

universe with all observers measuring the same time interval for any event nonrelativistic classical mechanics is based on this newtonian idea of time einstein in his special theory of relativity postulated the constancy and finiteness of the speed of light for all observers he showed that this postulate together with a reasonable definition for what it means for two events to be simultaneous requires that distances appear compressed and time intervals appear lengthened for events associated with objects in motion relative to an inertial observer the theory of special relativity finds a convenient formulation in minkowski spacetime a mathematical structure that combines three dimensions of space with a single dimension of time in this formalism distances in space can be measured by how long light takes to travel that distance eg a lightyear is a measure of distance and a meter is now defined in terms of how far light travels in a certain amount of time two events in minkowski spacetime are separated by an invariant interval which can be either spacelike lightlike or timelike events that have a timelike separation cannot be simultaneous in any frame of reference there must be a temporal component and possibly a spatial one to their separation events that have a spacelike separation will be simultaneous in some frame of reference and there is no frame of reference in which they do not have a spatial separation different observers may calculate different distances and different time intervals between two events but the invariant interval between the events is independent of the observer and his or her velocity unlike space where an object can travel in the opposite directions and in 3 dimensions time appears to have only one dimension and only one direction – the past lies behind fixed and immutable while the future lies ahead and is not necessarily fixed yet most laws of physics allow any process to proceed both forward and in reverse there are only a few physical phenomena that violate the reversibility of time this time directionality is known as the arrow of time acknowledged examples of the arrow of time are radiative arrow of time manifested in waves eg light and sound travelling only expanding rather than focusing in time see light cone entropic arrow of time according to the second law of thermodynamics an isolated system evolves toward a larger disorder rather than orders spontaneously quantum arrow time which is related to irreversibility of measurement in quantum mechanics according to the copenhagen interpretation

himself to adopt a position remarkably similar to parmenides on the death of his friend michele besso einstein consoled his widow with the words now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me that signifies nothing for those of us that believe in physics the distinction between past present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion leucippus leucippus early 5th century bc one of the atomists along with other philosophers of his time made attempts to reconcile this monism with the everyday observation of motion and change he accepted the monist position that there could be no motion without a void the void is the opposite of being it is notbeing on the other hand there exists something known as an absolute plenum a space filled with matter and there can be no motion in a plenum because it is completely full but there is not just one monolithic plenum for existence consists of a multiplicity of plenums these are the invisibly small atoms of greek atomist theory later expanded by democritus c 460 – 370 bc which allows the void to exist between them in this scenario macroscopic objects can comeintobeing move through space and pass into notbeing by means of the coming together and moving apart of their constituent atoms the void must exist to allow this to happen or else the frozen world of parmenides must be accepted bertrand russell points out that this does not exactly defeat the argument of parmenides but rather ignores it by taking the rather modern scientific position of starting with the observed data motion etc and constructing a theory based on the data as opposed to parmenides attempts to work from pure logic russell also observes that both sides were mistaken in believing that there can be no motion in a plenum but arguably motion cannot start in a plenum cyril bailey notes that leucippus is the first to say that a thing the void might be real without being a body and points out the irony that this comes from a

| 38    | <ul><li>'in sociolinguistics prestige is the level of regard normally accorded a specific language or dialect within a speech community relative to other languages or dialects prestige varieties are language or dialect families which are generally considered by a society to be the most correct or otherwise superior in many cases they are the standard form of the language though there are exceptions particularly in situations of covert prestige where a nonstandard dialect is highly valued in addition to dialects and languages prestige is also applied to smaller linguistic features such as the pronunciation or usage of words or grammatical constructs which may not be distinctive enough to constitute a separate dialect the concept of prestige provides one explanation for the phenomenon of variation in form among speakers of a language or languagesthe presence of prestige dialects is a result of the relationship between the prestige of a group of people and the language that they use generally the language or variety that is regarded as more prestigious in that community is the one used by the more prestigious group the level of prestige a group has can also influence whether the language that they speak is considered its own language or a dialect implying that it does not have enough prestige to be considered its own language social class has a correlation with the language that is considered more prestigious and studies in different communities have shown that sometimes members of a lower social class attempt to emulate the language of individuals in higher social classes to avoid how their distinct language would otherwise construct their identity the relationship between language and identity construction as a result of prestige influences the language used by different individuals depending on which groups they do belong or want to belong sociolinguistic prestige is especially visible in situations where two or more distinct languages are used and in diverse socially stratified urban areas in which there are likely to be speakers of different languages andor dialects interacting often the result of language contact depends on the power relationship between the languages of the groups that are in contact the prevailing view among contemporary linguists is that regardless of perceptions that a dialect or language is better or worse than its counterparts when dialects and languages are assessed on purely linguistic grounds all languages — and all dialects — have equal meritadditionally which varieties registers or features will be considered more prestigious depends on audience and context there are thus the concepts of overt and covert prestige overt prestige is related to standard and formal language features and expresses power and status covert prestige is related more to vernacular and often patois and expresses solidarity community and group identity more than authority prestige varieties are

to more dominant participants ’ words an opposition between urban and suburban linguistic variables is common to all metropolitan regions of the united states although the particular variables distinguishing urban and suburban styles may differ from place to place the trend is for urban styles to lead in the use of nonstandard forms and negative concord in penny eckerts study of belten high in the detroit suburbs she noted a stylistic difference between two groups that she identified schooloriented jocks and urbanoriented schoolalienated burnouts the variables she analyzed were the usage of negative concord and the mid and low vowels involved in the northern cities shift which consists of the following changes æ ea a æ ə a ʌ ə ay oy and ɛ ʌ y here is equivalent to the ipa symbol j all of these changes are urbanled as is the use of negative concord the older mostly stabilized changes æ ea a æ and ə a were used the most by women while the newer changes ʌ ə ay oy and ɛ ʌ were used the most by burnouts eckert theorizes that by using an urban variant such as foyt they were not associating themselves with urban youth rather they were trying to index traits that were associated with urban youth such as tough and streetsmart this theory is further supported by evidence from a subgroup within the burnout girls which eckert refers to as ‘ burnedout ’ burnout girls she characterizes this group as being even more antiestablishment than the ‘ regular ’ burnout girls this subgroup led overall in the use of negative concord as well as in femaleled changes this is unusual because negative concord is generally used the most by males ‘ burnedout ’ burnout girls were not indexing masculinity — this is shown by their use of femaleled variants and the fact that they were found to

exchange forces dominate the interaction and attractive at somewhat greater separations where the dispersion forces are active if separations are further increased all intermolecular forces fall off

elongated galaxies the instability causes the galaxy to buckle or bend in a direction perpendicular to its long axis after the instability has run its course the galaxy is less elongated ie rounder than before any sufficiently thin stellar system in which some component of the internal velocity is in the form of random or counterstreaming motions as opposed to rotation is subject to the instability the firehose instability is probably responsible for the fact that elliptical galaxies and dark matter haloes never have axis ratios more extreme than about 31 since this is roughly the axis ratio at which the instability sets in it may also play a role in the formation of barred spiral galaxies by causing the bar to thicken in the direction perpendicular to the galaxy diskthe firehose instability derives its name from a similar instability in magnetized plasmas however from a dynamical point of view a better analogy is with the kelvin – helmholtz instability or with beads

interaction design user experience branding and identity the organizations aim is to be the standard bearer for professional ethics and practices for the design profession there are currently over 25000 members and 72 chapters and more than 200 student groups around the united states in 2005 aiga changed its name to “ aiga the professional association for design ” dropping the american institute of graphic arts to welcome all design disciplines aiga aims to further design disciplines as professions as well as cultural assets as a whole aiga offers opportunities in exchange for creative new ideas scholarly research critical analysis and education advancement in 1911 frederic goudy alfred stieglitz and w a dwiggins came together to discuss the creation of an organization that was committed to individuals passionate about communication design in 1913 president of the national arts club john g agar announced the formation of the american institute of graphic arts during the eighth annual exhibition of “ the books of the year ” the national arts club was instrumental in the formation of aiga in that they helped to form the committee to plan to organize the organization the committee formed included charles dekay and william b howland and officially formed the american institute of graphic arts in 1914 howland publisher and editor of the outlook was elected president the goal of the group was to promote excellence in the graphic design profession through its network of local chapters throughout the countryin 1920 aiga began awarding medals to individuals who have set standards of excellence over a lifetime of work or have made individual contributions to innovation within the practice of design winners have been recognized for design teaching writing or leadership of the profession and may honor individuals posthumouslyin 1982 the new york chapter was formed and the organization began creating local chapters to decentralize leadershiprepresented by washington dc arts advocate and attorney james lorin silverberg esq the washington dc chapter of aiga was organized as the american institute of graphic arts incorporated washington dc on september 6 1984 the aiga in collaboration with the us department of transportation produced 50 standard symbols to be used on signs in airports and other transportation hubs and at large international events the first 34 symbols were published in 1974 receiving a presidential design award the remaining 16 designs were added in 1979 in 2012 aiga replaced all its competitions with a single competition called

either illustration or photograph rather than the images edges being rectilinear it is overlaid with decorative artwork featuring a unique outline this is similar to the use of the word in photography where the edges of an image that has been vignetted are nonlinear or sometimes softened with a mask – often a darkroom process of introducing a screen an oval vignette is probably the most common example originally a vignette was a design of vineleaves and tendrils vignette small vine in french the term was also used for a small embellishment without border in what otherwise would have been a blank space such as that found on a titlepage a headpiece or tailpiece the use in modern graphic design is derived from book publishing techniques dating back to the middle ages analytical bibliography ca 1450 to 1800 when a vignette referred to an engraved design printed using a copperplate press on a page that has already been printed on using a letter press printing press vignettes are sometimes distinguished from other intext illustrations printed on a copperplate press by the fact that they do not have a border such designs usually appear on titlepages only woodcuts which are printed on a letterpress and are also used to separate sections or chapters are identified as a headpiece tailpiece or printers ornament depending on shape and position calligraphy another conjunction

the dominant bookbinding material in the early 19th century which was much cheaper and easier to work with than leather revolutionising the manufacture and distribution of books winterbottom was born in linthwaite in the heart of the west riding of yorkshire the son of a third generation wool cloth merchant william whitehead winterbottom 1771 – 1842 and isabella nee dickson 1784 – 1849 not long after the family moved to the civil parish of saddleworth where winterbottom at the age of 15 left home in search of his fortune he reportedly promised his father that when he obtained a position he would “ do his utmost to succeed ” in 1829 winterbottom is said to have walked the 12 miles to manchester presumably seeking an apprenticeship beginning his working life as a clerk with the largest cotton merchants in manchester henry bannerman sons he remained with bannermans for the next twentythree years where he learned how to refine cloth to the highest degree and developed different finishes that could be applied to plain cloth at the age of nineteen he was appointed to manage their bradford accounts and to run their silesia department patenting a silvery finish lining which became known as dacians winterbottom was made a partner at bannermans aged thirty which he held for the next nine years manchester was at the heart of the cotton industry in britain during the 19th century which was a labourintensive sector at a time when half of the workforce were children in 1845 winterbottom married helen woolley whose family came from a unitarian tradition at the same time he became actively involved in the lancashire public school association lpsa founded in 1847 which was dominated by unitarians by 1852 winterbottom formed part of a delegation of the national public school association npa to present a draft bill to lord john russell at 10 downing street for the establishment of nondenominational free schools in england and wales ” he remained active within the npa listed as secretary to the general committee on education in 1857 but by 1862 the npa had achieved some of what it had set out to achieve and was dissolved winterbottom went on to work with the newly formed manchester educational aid society campaigning for compulsory primary education he spent the rest of his life actively involved in improving child welfare creating new schools and

anteriorposterior axis of the developing embryo in segmented animals in vertebrates somites give rise to skeletal muscle cartilage tendons endothelium and dermis in somitogenesis somites form from the paraxial mesoderm a particular region of mesoderm in the neurulating embryo this tissue undergoes convergent extension as the primitive streak regresses or as the embryo gastrulates the notochord extends from the base of the head to the tail with it extend thick bands of paraxial mesodermas the primitive streak continues to regress somites form from the paraxial mesoderm by budding off rostrally as somitomeres or whorls of paraxial mesoderm cells compact and separate into discrete bodies the periodic nature of these splitting events has led many to say to that somitogenesis occurs via a clockwavefront model in which waves of developmental signals cause the periodic formation of new somites these immature somites then are compacted into an outer layer the epithelium and an inner mass the mesenchyme the somites themselves are specified according to their location as the segmental paraxial mesoderm from which they form it itself determined by position along the anteriorposterior axis before somitogenesis the cells within each somite are specified based on their location within the somite in addition they retain the ability to become any kind of somitederived structure until relatively late in the process of somitogenesis once the cells of the presomitic mesoderm are in place following cell migration during gastrulation oscillatory expression of many genes begins in these cells as if regulated by a developmental clock as mentioned previously this has led many to conclude that somitogenesis is coordinated by a clock and wave mechanism in technical terms this means that somitogenesis occurs due to the largely cellautonomous oscillations of a network of genes and gene products which causes cells to oscillate between a permissive and a nonpermissive state in a consistently timedfashion like a clock these genes include members of the fgf family wnt and notch pathway as well as targets of these pathways the wavefront progress slowly in a

become invasive this departure from the cell cycle seems to be due to factors such as tgfβ and decorin although these invasive interstitial cytotrophoblasts can no longer divide they retain their ability to form syncytia multinucleated giant cells small syncytia are found in the placental bed and myometrium as a result of the fusion of interstitial cytotrophoblastsinterstitial cytotrophoblasts may also transform into endovascular cytotrophoblasts the primary function of the endovascular cytotrophoblast is to penetrate maternal spiral arteries and route the blood flow through the placenta for the growing embryo to use they arise from interstitial cytotrophoblasts from the process of phenocopying this changes the phenotype of these cells from epithelial to endothelial endovascular cytotrophoblasts like their interstitial predecessor are nonproliferating and invasive proper cytotrophoblast function is essential in the implantation of a blastocyst after hatching the embryonic pole of the blastocyst faces the uterine endometrium once they make contact the trophoblast begins to rapidly proliferate the cytotrophoblast secretes proteolytic enzymes to break down the extracellular matrix between the endometrial cells to allow fingerlike projections of trophoblast to penetrate through projections of cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast pull the embryo into the endometrium until it is fully covered by endometrial epithelium save for the coagulation plug the most common associated disorder is preeclampsia affecting approximately 7 of all births it is characterized by a failure of the cytotrophoblast to invade the uterus and its vasculature specifically the spiral arteries that the endovascular cytotrophoblast should invade the result of this is decreased blood flow to the fetus which may cause intrauterine growth restriction clinical symptoms of preeclampsia in the mother are most commonly high blood pressure proteinuria and edema conversely

perspectives each window has advantages and disadvantages for viewing specific structures within the heart and typically numerous windows are utilized within the same study to fully assess the heart parasternal long and parasternal short axis windows are taken next to the sternum the apical twothreefour chamber windows are taken from the apex of the heart lower left side and the subcostal window is taken from underneath the edge of the last rib tte utilizes one m mode two and threedimensional ultrasound time is implicit and not included from the different windows these can be combined with pulse wave or continuous wave doppler to visualize the velocity of blood flow and structure movements images can be enhanced with contrast that are typically some sort of micro bubble suspension that reflect the ultrasound waves a transesophageal echocardiogram is an alternative way to perform an echocardiogram a specialized probe containing an ultrasound transducer at its tip is passed into the patients esophagus via the mouth allowing image and doppler evaluation from a location directly behind the heart it is most often used when transthoracic images are suboptimal and when a clearer and more precise image is needed for assessment this test is performed in the presence of a cardiologist anesthesiologist registered nurse and ultrasound technologist conscious sedation andor localized numbing medication may be used to make the patient more comfortable during the procedure tee unlike tte does not have discrete windows to view the heart the entire esophagus and stomach can be utilized and the probe advanced or removed along this dimension to alter the perspective on the heart most probes include the ability to deflect the tip of the probe in one or two dimensions to further refine the perspective of the heart additionally the ultrasound crystal is often a twodimension crystal and the ultrasound plane being used can be rotated electronically to permit an additional dimension to optimize views of the heart structures often movement in all of these dimensions is needed tee can be used as standalone procedures or incorporated into catheter or surgicalbased procedures for example during a valve replacement surgery the tee can be used to assess the valve function immediately before repairreplacement and immediately after this permits revising the valve midsurgery if needed to improve outcomes of the surgery a stress echocardiogram also known as a stress echo uses ultrasound imaging of the heart to'</li><li>'and arms within the

cerebrum can be separated into two subdivisions superficial and deep the superficial systemthe superficial system is composed of dural venous sinuses sinuses channels within the dura mater the dural sinuses are therefore located on the surface of the cerebrum the most prominent of these sinuses is the superior sagittal sinus which is located in the sagittal plane under the midline of the cerebral vault posteriorly and inferiorly to the confluence of sinuses where the superficial drainage joins with the sinus that primarily drains the deep venous system from here two transverse sinuses bifurcate and travel laterally and inferiorly in an sshaped curve that forms the sigmoid sinuses which go on to form the two jugular veins in the neck the jugular veins parallel the upward course of the carotid arteries and drain blood into the superior vena cava the veins puncture the relevant dural sinus piercing the arachnoid and dura mater as bridging veins that drain their contents into the sinus the deep venous systemthe deep venous system is primarily composed of traditional veins inside the deep structures of the brain which join behind the midbrain to form the great cerebral vein vein of galen this vein merges with the inferior sagittal sinus to form the straight sinus which then joins the superficial venous system mentioned above at the confluence of sinuses cerebral blood flow cbf is the blood supply to the brain in a given period of time in an adult cbf is typically 750 millilitres per minute or 15 of the cardiac output this equates to an average perfusion of 50 to 54

urban vs rural is not a strict division but rather a continuum within which several distinct settlement patterns may exist for example a community may fit a strictly statistical definition of an urban area but may not be commonly thought of as urban because it has a smaller population or functions socially and economically as a suburb of another urban area rather than as a selfcontained urban entity or is geographically remote from other urban communities accordingly the new definition set out three distinct types of population centres small population 1000 to 29999 medium population 30000 to 99999 and large population 100000 or greater despite the change in terminology however the demographic definition of a population centre remains unchanged from that of an urban area a population of

| 22    | <ul><li>'time of concentration is a concept used in hydrology to measure the response of a watershed to a rain event it is defined as the time needed for water to flow from the most remote point in a watershed to the watershed outlet it is a function of the topography geology and land use within the watershed a number of methods can be used to calculate time of concentration including the kirpich 1940 and nrcs 1997 methods time of concentration is useful in predicting flow rates that would result from hypothetical storms which are based on statistically derived return periods through idf curves for many often economic reasons it is important for engineers and hydrologists to be able to accurately predict the response of a watershed to a given rain event this can be important for infrastructure development design of bridges culverts etc and management as well as to assess flood risk such as the arkstormscenario this image shows the basic principle which leads to determination of the time of concentration much like a topographic map showing lines of equal elevation a map with isolines can be constructed to show locations with the same travel time to the watershed outlet in this simplified example the watershed outlet is located at the bottom of the picture with a stream flowing through it moving up the map we can say that rainfall which lands on all of the places along the first yellow line will reach the watershed outlet at exactly the same time this is true for every yellow line with each line further away from the outlet corresponding to a greater travel time for runoff traveling to the outlet furthermore as this image shows the spatial representation of travel time can be transformed into a cumulative distribution plot detailing how travel times are distributed throughout the area of the watershed'</li><li>'equation d s t d t displaystyle dstdt describes how the soil saturation changes over time the terms on the right hand side

millimeters per day mmd runoff evaporation and leakage are all highly dependent on the soil saturation at a given time in order to solve the equation the rate of evapotranspiration as a function of soil moisture must be known the model generally used to describe it states that above a certain saturation evaporation will only be dependent on climate factors such as available sunlight once below this point soil moisture imposes controls on evapotranspiration and it decreases until the soil reaches the point where the vegetation can no longer extract any more water this soil level is generally referred to as the permanent wilting point use of this term can lead to confusion because many plant species do not actually wilt the damkohler number is a unitless ratio that predicts whether the

withstand harsher conditions than most vascular plants and although they have slower colonization rates do form the dominant group in alpine regions organic acids released from plant roots include

deposit in which soil horizons form soils typically inherit a great deal of structure and minerals from their parent material and as such are often classified based upon their contents of consolidated or unconsolidated mineral material that has undergone some degree of physical or chemical weathering and the mode by which the materials were most recently transported parent materials that are predominantly composed of consolidated rock are termed residual parent material the consolidated rocks consist of igneous sedimentary and metamorphic rock etc soil developed in residual parent material is that which forms in consolidated geologic material this parent material is loosely arranged particles are not cemented together and not stratified this parent material is classified by its last means of transport for example material that was transported to a location by glacier then deposited elsewhere by streams is classified as streamtransported parent material or glacial fluvial parent material glacial till morrainal the material dragged with a moving ice sheet because it is not transported with liquid water the material is not sorted by size there are two kinds of glacial till basal till carried at the base of the glacier and laid underneath it this till is typically very compacted and does not allow for quick water infiltration ablation till carried on or in the glacier and is laid down as the glacier melts this till is typically less compacted than basal till glaciolacustrine parent material that is created from the sediments coming into lakes that come from glaciers the lakes are typically ice margin lakes or other types formed from glacial erosion or deposition the bedload of the rivers containing the larger rocks and stones is deposited near the lake edge while the suspended sediments are settle out all over the lake bed glaciofluvial consist of boulders gravel sand silt and clay from ice sheets or glaciers they are transported sorted and deposited by streams of water the deposits are formed beside below or downstream from the ice glaciomarine these sediments are created when sediments have been transported to the oceans by glaciers or icebergs they may contain large boulders transported by and dropped from icebergs in the midst of finegrained sediments within water transported parent material there are several important types alluvium parent material transported by streams of which there are three main types floodplains are the parts of river valleys that are covered with water during floods due to their seasonal nature

under conditions designed to promote the formation of lamellar ice crystals which expel the ceramic particles as they grow after sublimation of the water this results in a layered homogeneous ceramic scaffold that architecturally is a negative replica of the ice the scaffold can then be filled with a second soft phase so as to create a hard – soft layered composite this strategy is also widely applied to build other kinds of bioinspired materials like extremely strong and tough hydrogels metalceramic and polymerceramic hybrid biomimetic materials with fine lamellar or brickandmortar architectures the brick layer is extremely strong but brittle and the soft mortar layer between the bricks generates limited deformation thereby allowing for the relief of locally high stresses while also providing ductility without too much loss in strength additive manufacturing encompasses a family of technologies that draw on computer designs to build structures layer by layer recently a lot of bioinspired materials with elegant hierarchical motifs have been built with features ranging in size from tens of micrometers to one submicrometer therefore the crack of materials only can happen and propagate on the microscopic scale which wouldnt lead to the fracture of the whole structure however the timeconsuming of manufacturing the hierarchical mechanical materials especially on the nano

to fluid dynamics early records of fundamental aerodynamic concepts date back to the work of aristotle and archimedes in the 2nd and 3rd centuries bc but efforts to develop a quantitative theory of airflow did not begin until the 18th century in 1726 isaac newton became one of the first aerodynamicists in the modern sense when he developed a theory of air resistance which was later verified for low flow speeds air resistance experiments were performed by investigators throughout the 18th and 19th centuries aided by the construction of the first wind tunnel in 1871 in his 1738 publication hydrodynamica daniel bernoulli described a fundamental relationship between pressure velocity and density now termed bernoullis principle which provides one method of explaining lift aerodynamics work throughout the 19th century sought to achieve heavierthanair flight george cayley developed the concept of the modern fixedwing aircraft in 1799 and in doing so identified the four fundamental forces of flight lift thrust drag and weight the development of reasonable predictions of the thrust needed to power flight in conjunction with the development of highlift lowdrag airfoils paved the way for the first powered flight on december 17 1903 wilbur and orville wright flew the first successful powered aircraft the flight and the publicity it received led to more organized collaboration between aviators and aerodynamicists leading the way to modern aerodynamics theoretical advances in aerodynamics were made parallel to practical ones the relationship described by bernoulli was found to be valid only for incompressible inviscid flow in 1757 leonhard euler published the euler equations extending bernoullis principle to the compressible flow regime in the early 19th century the development of the navierstokes equations extended the euler equations to account for viscous effects during the time of the first flights several investigators developed independent theories connecting flow circulation to lift ludwig prandtl became one of the first people to investigate boundary layers during this time although the modern theory of aerodynamic science did not emerge until the 18th century its foundations began to emerge in ancient times the fundamental aerodynamics continuity assumption has its origins in aristotles treatise on the heavens although archimedes working in the 3rd century bc was the first person to formally assert that a fluid could be treated as a continuum archimedes also introduced the concept that fluid flow was driven by a pressure gradient within the fluid this idea would later prove fundamental to the understanding of fluid flow in 1687 newtons principia presented newtons laws'</li><li>'the yaw drive is an important component of the horizontal axis wind turbines yaw system to ensure the wind turbine is producing the maximal amount of electric energy at all times the yaw drive is used to keep the rotor facing into the wind as the wind direction changes this only applies for wind turbines with a horizontal axis rotor the wind turbine is said to have a yaw error if the rotor is not aligned to the wind a yaw error implies that a lower share of the energy in the wind will be running through the rotor area the generated energy will be approximately proportional to the cosine of the yaw error when the windmills of the 18th century included the feature of rotor orientation via the rotation of the nacelle an actuation mechanism able to provide that turning moment was necessary initially the windmills used ropes or chains extending from the nacelle to the ground in order to allow the rotation of the nacelle by means of human or animal power another historical innovation was the fantail this device was actually an auxiliary rotor equipped with plurality of blades and located downwind of the main rotor behind the nacelle in a 90° approximately orientation to the main rotor sweep plane in the event of change in wind direction the fantail would rotate thus transmitting its mechanical power through a gearbox and via a gearrimtopinion mesh to the tower of the windmill the effect of the aforementioned transmission was the rotation of the nacelle towards the direction of the wind where the fantail would not face the wind thus stop turning ie the nacelle would stop to its new positionthe modern yaw drives even though electronically controlled and equipped with large electric motors and planetary gearboxes have great similarities to the old windmill concept the main categories of yaw drives are the electric yaw drives commonly used in almost all modern turbines the hydraulic yaw drive hardly ever used anymore on modern wind turbines the gearbox of the yaw drive is a very crucial component since it is required to handle very large moments while requiring the minimal amount of maintenance and perform reliably for the whole lifespan of the wind turbine approx 20 years most of the yaw drive gearboxes have input to output ratios in the range of 20001 in order to produce the enormous turning moments required for the rotation of the wind turbine nacelle the gearrim and the pinions of the yaw drives are the components that finally transmit the turning moment from the yaw drives to the tower in order to turn the nacelle of the wind turbine around the tower axis z axis the main characteristics of the gearrim are its'</li><li>'the development of aerodynamics such as theodore von karman and max munk compressibility is an important factor in aerodynamics at low speeds the compressibility of air is not significant in relation to aircraft design but as the airflow nears and exceeds the speed of sound a host of new aerodynamic effects become important in the design of aircraft these effects often several of them at a time made it very difficult for world war ii era aircraft to reach speeds much beyond 800 kmh 500 mph some of the minor effects include changes to the airflow that lead to problems in control for instance the p38 lightning with its thick highlift wing had a particular problem in highspeed dives that led to a nosedown condition pilots would enter dives and then find that they could no longer control the plane which continued to nose over until it crashed the problem was remedied by adding a dive flap beneath the wing which altered the center of pressure distribution so that the wing would not lose its lifta similar problem affected some models of the supermarine spitfire at high speeds the ailerons could apply more torque than the spitfires thin wings could handle and the entire wing would twist in the opposite direction this meant that the plane would roll in the direction opposite to that which the pilot intended and led to a number of accidents earlier models werent fast enough for this to be a problem and so it wasnt noticed until later model spitfires like the mkix started to appear this was mitigated by adding considerable torsional rigidity to the wings and was wholly cured when the mkxiv was introduced the messerschmitt bf 109 and mitsubishi zero had the exact opposite problem in which the controls became ineffective at higher speeds the pilot simply couldnt move the controls because there was too much airflow over the control surfaces the planes would become difficult to maneuver and at high enough speeds aircraft without this problem could outturn them these problems were eventually solved as jet aircraft reached transonic and supersonic speeds german scientists in wwii experimented with swept wings their research was applied on the mig15 and f86 sabre and bombers such as the b47 stratojet used swept wings which delay the onset of shock waves and reduce drag in order to maintain control
