Abstract:

The Arctic Region is currently experiencing an amplified warming if compared to the rest of the world. The soils in this region store approximately half of the global soil organic carbon (OC), mainly locked in the permanently-frozen ground (permafrost). This carbon sink is sensitive to global warming meaning that the predicted warming will likely increase the thaw-release of this ‘old’ carbon. However, what happens to this remobilized OC once it is transported to the Arctic Ocean, including the potential conversion to greenhouse gasses causing a positive feedback to climate warming, remains unclear. In this work, we further investigate the fate of terrestrial derived OC (terrOC) in the Eurasian Arctic Region. The key findings of this work are: • Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) and bacteriohopanepolyols (BHPs) are present in marine sediments of the Eurasian Arctic Region and the associated Branched and Isoprenoidal tetraether (BIT) and Rsoil indices can be used to trace terrOC in marine realm. However, a slight modification in the Rsoil index is suggested (R’soil). • Analyses indicate that the behaviour of BIT is largely controlled by a marine GDGT contribution while the R’soil index is mainly controlled by the removal of soil marker BHPs. Although both indices suggest a non-conservative behavior for the terrOC, this leads to differences in the estimations for the percentage terrOC present. A multi-proxy approach is essential since the use of a single-proxy approach can lead to over/under estimation.• Comparison of BIT and 13Csoc indices across the East Siberian Shelf indicates that the BIT index is possibly reflecting a predominantly fluvial input while 13Csoc represents a mixed fluvial and coastal erosion input.• The macromolecular terrOC composition varies along a west-east Eurasian Arctic climosequence and is mainly controlled by the river runoff of surface derived terrOC and wetland coverage (sphagnum vs. higher plants) but is not affected by the presence/absence of continuous permafrost. • The phenols/(phenols+pyridines) ratio was suggested as a proxy to trace terrOC at the macromolecular level along the Kolyma River-East Siberian Sea transect. The results indicate a non-conservative behavior of the macromolecular terrOC comparable to the bulk of the terrOC.All molecular analyses/based proxies used showed that the remobilized terrOC in the Eurasian Arctic region behaves non-conservatively potentially causing a positive feedback to global climate change.

Abstract:

The telecommunications technology has been developed tremendously as there has been an ever-increasing demand for more speed and reliability. The enormous increase in the number of smart phones and other data consuming devices, combined with the development of enhanced multimedia applications has resulted in a dramatic increase in the volume of mobile data traffic. In order to accommodate the growing needs, it is required to utilise the spectrum efficiently. The design of radio access technology plays an important role in the aspect of system performance. These radio access technologies are typically characterised by the multiple-access techniques used. Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) is a multiple access scheme proposed for 5G and it utilises the power domain which was not sufficiently utilised in the previous systems. This thesis work is mainly focused on the performance analysis of the NOMA technique in mobile media (images). This analysis is achieved by transmitting a high definition image at various power levels to two users who are located at two different distances from the base station. The images are transmitted through suitable noise channels. An analysis is done on how NOMA copes with the users having poor channel conditions. The performance is analysed by comparing the output images at both the receivers based on the structural similarity index and bit error rate parameters.

Abstract:

Architects and urban designers have a unique background to deal with the experiential qualities of cities. Quality of urban spaces is an essential aspect of livability (Southworth, 2003). The quality of urban spaces is important, specifically the interaction between buildings and the street, and it has been explored by Jane Jacobs, Jan Gehl and many more. BIM and CIM is new technology to analyze and design buildings and cities. With fast technology development, there are many options today on how to deal with the experiential qualities and make a 3D model using image-based input.

Abstract:

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden elektroenzephalographische und hämodynami-sche Parameter zur Überwachung der Narkoseinduktion bei Kindern, sowie das Auftreten von Exzitationen, Hustenereignissen und Intubationsreaktionen untersucht. In die Studie wurden insgesamt 54 Kinder (4 - 14 Jahre) eingeschlossen, die randomisiert drei Induktionsverfahren (schrittweise Einleitung mit Sevofluran, „single breath-Technik“, total intravenöse Anästhesie mit Propofol) zugewiesen wurden. In allen drei Gruppen reflektierte das Verhalten des Bispectral Index die dynamischen Veränderungen des hypnotischen Niveaus. Das Zustandsbild „Wach“ ließ sich in allen drei Gruppen zuverlässig von den Zuständen „Verlust des Lidreflexes“, „Tonusverlust“ und „Intubation“ trennen (Pk ≥ 0,9). Unabhängig von der Narkoseinduktion zeigte der Bispectral Index in allen drei Gruppen eine ausreichende Hypnosetiefe zum Zeitpunkt der Intubation ([SEV-S] = 30±14; [SEV-V] = 24±10; [PROP] = 32±11). Dennoch wurden nach Sevofluran vermehrt Exzitationen (21 vs. 4; p ≤ 0,008) und nach Propofol verstärkt Hustenereignisse (11 vs. 3; p ≤ 0,011) und Intubationsreaktionen (3 vs. 0) registriert. Es war nicht möglich mit Hilfe des Bispectral Index diese Ereignisse vorherzusagen. Dies liegt wahrscheinlich an der fehlenden Erfassung spinal vermittelter Reaktionen. Problematisch ist weiterhin die Heterogenität der Einzelmesswerte aufgrund der breiten Altersverteilung. Somit unterstreicht diese Arbeit die Notwendigkeit einer Weiterentwicklung der EEG-gestützten Monitorsysteme insbesondere hinsichtlich alterspezifischer Besonderheiten. Die Qualität der Narkoseinduktion unterscheidet sich rein klinisch, nicht aber hinsichtlich des Erreichens spezieller prozessierter EEG-Werte.

Abstract:

El enamoramiento implica procesos bioquímicos en los que sustancias como neurotransmisores, neuromoduladores y hormonas interaccionan con células nerviosas u otros órganos. Al estar enamorados, los niveles de dopamina aumentan generando atención, deseo y motivación en todo lo relacionado al ser amado. La serotonina, por el contrario, se presenta en concentraciones bajas en este estado. La oxitocina, por su parte, entra en juego cuando la demanda de dopamina no se logra suplir y es crucial al entablar relaciones de largo plazo. El entendimiento del mecanismo de la oxitocina en el ser humano es crucial no solo para el conocimiento académico sino también porque brinda luces para el tratamiento de algunos desórdenes psicológicos.
Romantic love involves biochemical processes in which substances such as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and hormones interact with other nerve cells or organs. When being in love, dopamine levels increases, generating attention, desire and motivation in everything related to the beloved person. Serotonin, however, is present in low levels in this state. When the body does not supply the necessary amount of dopamine, oxytocin is released. Oxytocin is vital in long term relationships. Understanding the mechanism of oxytocin in humans is crucial not only for academic knowledge of the chemistry of love but also because it provides new lights for the treatment of some psychological disorders.

Abstract:

In the last years the idea has resurfaced that traits can be measured in a reliable and valid and this can be useful inthe prediction of human behavior. The five-factor model appears to represent a conceptual and empirical advances in the field of personality theory. Necessary orthogonal factors (Goldberg, 1992, p. 26) to show the relationships between the descriptors of the features in English is five, and its nature can be summarized through the broad concepts of Surgency, Agreeableness, Responsibility, Emotional Stability versus neuroticism and openness to experience (John, 1990, p96) Furthermore, despite the criticisms that have been given to the model, represents a breakthrough in the field of personality assessment. This approach means a contribution to the study of personality, without being the integrative model of personality.
En los últimos años ha reaparecido la idea de que los rasgos pueden ser medidos de manera confiable y válida y esto puede ser útil enla predicción de la conducta humana. El modelo de los cinco factores parece representar un avance conceptual y empírico en el campo de la teoría de la personalidad. Los factores ortogonales necesarios (Goldberg, 1992, p. 26) para mostrar las interrelaciones entre los descriptores de los rasgos en idioma inglés es cinco, y su naturaleza puede resumirse a través de los conceptos amplios de Surgency, Agradabilidad, Responsabilidad, Estabilidad emocional versus neuroticismo y Apertura a la experiencia (John, 1990, p96 ) Asímismo, a pesar de las críticas que se han dado al modelo, representa un avance en el campo de la evaluación de la personalidad. Este enfoque significa un aporte a los estudios de la personalidad, sin ser el modelo integrativo de la persobalidad.

Abstract:

This thesis is among the first market microstructure studies of an index futures market with designated market makers in the academic literature. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate intraday patterns of key variables, the relative size of the components of the quoted bid-ask spread, and the order decisions of uninformed traders, in a continuous dealer market for index futures with market makers. Overall, our findings aim to contribute to a better understanding of the roles of market makers and public customers in price formation. Intraday patterns of financial market variables such as trade price, volume, trade size, quoted spreads, depth, and volatility separately for designated market makers and public customers are examined. The lack of relevant and appropriate data in futures markets, as evidenced by Hasbrouck (2003) and Kurov (2005), has inhibited the growth of market microstructure in futures markets. Individual orders, quotes, trader identification, and transactions from June 2003 to December 2004, for FTSEurofirst 80 and 100 index futures are used in the study. Inclusion of the parties to order execution distinguishes this data set from most other futures microstructure sources. As this thesis is the first known academic study of the extant market microstructure of the FTSEurofirst index futures, the institutional aspects of the trading process for the FTSEurofirst index futures are also explored. An alternative method for estimating three cost components as a proportion of the bid-ask spread is developed. A framework is developed for the order decision process of an uninformed trader for the first time in a futures market with market makers. The results of this thesis may have implications for other financial markets and the field of market microstructure.

Full text

Abstract:

The hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis) is a salamander that grows over a large range of body sizes (2-74 cm total length) making it an ideal organism for examining the effects of body size on morphology and performance. The goal of this study is to investigate the morphology changes over ontogeny and change in feeding ability. Cryptobranchus feeds on small aquatic insects as juveniles and shifts to crayfish as they get larger. Morphology can be expected to change as an organism grows larger, and because morphology and performance are closely linked, this morphological change can result in a change in feeding ability. Cryptobranchus alleganiensis are primarily aquatic salamanders that utilize both suction feeding and biting behaviors. I hypothesize bite force would increase with positive allometry reflecting a possible dietary shift during ontogeny in which larger Cryptobranchus favor crayfish. Because suction is the primary mode of feeding making it an important aspect of feeding throughout ontogeny, suction index was hypothesized to scale with isometry. Fourteen preserved specimens (11.9-34.5 cm SVL) were used to investigate the effects of scaling on suction potential and estimated bite force. Bite force was calculated using a 3D static equilibrium model and suction potential was calculated as suction index. Bite force scaled with positive allometry allowing the animals to bite harder relative to body mass with increasing body size, and suction index showed no effect of body size. Results of this study indicate that Cryptobranchus alleganiensis maintains suction performance across ontogeny allowing them to generate suction with similar ability ontogenetically, but increases its biting performance to cope with durophagous prey with a possible ontogenetic dietary shift.

Abstract:

Los proyectos de construcción suelen tener relaciones adversarias entre colaboradores, bajos ratios de productividad, alto grado de ineficiencia y re trabajo, frecuentes disputas y poca innovación. Como resultado, se tienen proyectos que son muy costosos y que no cumplen con los plazos especificados. Este panorama puede ser visto desde enfoques diversos de solución, empezando por la mejora de la productividad, la tecnología, entre otros. Sin embargo, es necesario revisar las bases mismas de la relación entre las empresas que forman parte de un proyecto y, a partir de ello, presentar un nuevo modo de trabajo colaborativo: el IPD, un marco de trabajo integrador de resultados fascinantes.

Abstract:

In Brazil, few studies are found investigating the relationship between creativity and personality constructs, especially considering the Big Five Model. This study investigated a sample of 83 Brazilian high school students, between ages 14 and 18 years (M = 16.01, SD = 0.95) that answered two questionnaires, the Torrance Thinking Creatively with Words (Brazilian version) and the Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade (Factorial Battery of Personality). The results indicated significant correlations only between the socialization factor and twoverbal creative indexes (ICVI = .26; ICVII = .26). In the present study the investigated constructs are weakly related. The influence of the instrument and the theoretical modeladopted in the findings is discussed.
En Brasil es escasa la literatura científica acerca de la relación entre los constructos de creatividad, personalidad y el Modelo de los Cinco Factores. A partir de la aplicación del Test de Pensamiento Creativo con Palabras de Torrance (versión brasilera) y la Batería Factorial de Personalidad en 83 estudiantes brasileros de secundaria, con rango de edad de entre 14-18 años (M = 16; DS = .95), se estudia la relación entre la creatividad verbal y la personalidad. Los resultados revelan la existencia de relaciones significativas bajas entre el factor socialización y dos índices creativos verbales (ICV I = .26; ICVII = .26). Se discute la influencia del instrumento y del modelo teórico asumido en los hallazgos.
No Brasil, a escassez de estudos que investigam a relação entre os construtos da Criatividade e Personalidade, principalmente considerando-se o modelo Big Five, pode ser notada. Neste cenário, a partir da aplicação dos testes Pensando Criativamente com Palavras de Torrance (versão brasileira) e a Bateria Fatorial da Personalidade, o presente trabalho pesquisou em uma amostra de 83 estudantes brasileiros do Ensino Médio, com idades entre 14 e 18 anos (M = 16.01, DP = .95) a relação entre os construtos referidos anteriormente. Os resultados indicaram a existência de correlações significativas apenas entre o fator Socialização e os dois índices criativos verbais (ICVI = .26; ICVII = .26), de modo a apontar que, nesta pesquisa, os construtos apresentamse pouco relacionados. Discutese a influência dos instrumentos edo modelo teórico adotado.

Abstract:

Region specific foods in the Niger Delta like yam and cassava are consumed on a daily basis by at least 70% of the population. In addition to other commonly consumed foods, high volumes of unavoidable food wastes are generated. With 78% of the households in the region disposing their waste by burying, burning or in unauthorised heaps, environmental degradation is sustained. The region also suffers an infestation of Water Hyacinth (WH). Anaerobic Digestion (AD) presents a viable way of managing these wastes in addition to providing a clean source of energy. Limited research has been conducted on the characterisation and biogas potential of these exotic food wastes due to their localised availability, leading to a knowledge gap. My original contribution to knowledge is the Specific Waste Index (SWI), nutrient characterisation and biogas potential of the local food wastes and WH. Also novel is the design and optimisation of the AD process for mono and codigestion including the quarter hourly analysis of CH4 and CO2 content of the biogas composition over the complete duration of an AD test. The research approach was experimental and involved using conventional research methods in new fields of investigation. SWI was determined by replicating local food processing practices while nutrient composition was obtained using standard analytical methods. The Bio-Methane Potential (BMP) tests were carried out on the four most common food wastes, Yam Peel (YP), Cassava Peel (CP), Cocoyam Peel (CoP), Plantain Peel (PP), following VDI 4630 guidelines and using a newly designed cost-effective bioreactor. Laboratory scale batch reactors ran over 20 days at 37⁰C (310 K). The food wastes were anaerobically co-digested with WH in the ratio 2:1 g Volatile Solid (VS) with a total substrate mass of 8.4 g VS. The S:I ratio was 1:2 g VS and tests were carried out in duplicates to give an indication of repeatability. The results showed a wide range of SWI from 0.2-1.5. The Total Solid (TS) content varied from 7% for WH to 82% for Egusi Shell. Crude Protein and Crude Fibre were highest for Ugwu Stalk at 37% VS and Egusi Shell at 82% VS respectively. Cassava Peel had the highest oil content at 25% VS. NFE which was the major nutrient for 80% of the samples was highest for Yam Peel at 82% VS. YP+WH, CP+WH, CoP+WH and PP+WH had specific biogas yields of 0.42, 0.29, 0.39, and 0.38 m3/kg VS respectively. The yields represented 76%, 48%, 70% and 69% of their respective theoretical values. The samples had their highest methane content during the Technical Digestion Time (T80) period, which lasted up to the 8th day of digestion. The pH values ranged from 7.3 to 7.9 indicating that there was no inhibitory accumulation of organic acids. The results of the mono-digestion tests showed that co-digestion with WH reduced the biogas yields for YP, CP, CoP and PP by 16%, 22%, 7% and 7%. This drop in gas production was due to presence of complex molecules in the WH co-substrate, which cannot be digested by the anaerobic microbes. Further tests showed that fresh waste produced more biogas than dry samples, while a lower S:I produced more biogas due to increased microbial population. It was concluded that waste and nutrient content varied widely between different types of Niger Delta foods. In addition mesophilic digestion of food wastes have good biogas potentials which reduce when co-digested with water hyacinth. The methane content is shown to vary widely throughout an AD test. The findings of this research would provide valuable information to AD databases and its implementation would support clean energy production, environmental remediation and allow researchers in poor regions to perform BMP test on novel feedstock using cost-effective reactors. Key Words: Anaerobic Digestion, Co-Digestion, Water Hyacinth, Niger Delta, Yam, Cassava, Cocoyam, Food Waste, Specific Waste Index, Biogas.

Dois ensaios metabólicos e um ensaio de desempenho foram conduzidos para avaliar o efeito da suplementação com fitase (Phyzyme XP 5000G®) em dietas com redução nos níveis de EMA, PB, Lis, Ca e Pd sobre digestibilidade de nutrientes e desempenho de frangos de corte. Em todos os ensaios, foi utilizado um delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 3 x 2 (três dietas com redução de nutrientes (controles negativos (CN), com e sem enzima) e um controle positivo (CP). Para o ensaio de desempenho foram utilizadas sete repetições de 40 aves por unidade experimental e para o de digestibilidade, seis repetições de 15 aves cada. A fitase foi suplementada nos níveis de 500, 750 e 1000 U de fitase nos CN1, CN2 e CN3, respectivamente. Os ensaios metabólicos foram conduzidos com frangos dos 14 a 21 e 28 a 35 dias de idade. Foram utilizados os métodos: coleta parcial de excretas e digesta ileal, utilizando-se cinza ácida insolúvel como indicador indigestível. Dos 14 aos 21 dias de idade, a redução nos níveis nutricionais das dietas resultou em EMA, ED, CDMS e CDAA (exceto para o CD Val, Iso, Tir, Fen e Leu) inferiores aos obtidos com a dieta CP. A interação (P<0,05) obtida para ED, CDIPB e CDAA mostrou que a adição de fitase melhorou estes parâmetros nos CN1 e CN2. Para a fase de crescimento, foram determinadas EMA e ED menores que os do CP apenas nos CN2 e CN3. O CDAA das dietas CN sem e com adição de fitase foram superiores aos do CP, exceto para Arg, Cis e His. Houve interação (P<0,05) para a EMA, ED e CDMS, sendo a fitase eficiente nos CN2 e CN3. A suplementação com fitase aumentou em média o CDIPB em 5% e o CDAA em 2,89%. A adição de fitase nos CN aumentou (P<0,05) o CD de todos os minerais avaliados. Aos 21 e 42 dias de idade, a redução de nutrientes na dieta causou um efeito negativo sobre o ganho de peso, consumo de ração e rendimento de carcaça...
Two digestibility trials and one performance trial were conducted to study the effect of supplementation of phytase in diets formulated with reduction in the levels of ME, CP, Lys, Ca and P, on the digestibility of nutrients and performance of broiler chicks. The treatmeants consisted of a factorial arrangement 3 x 2 (three levels of nutrient reduction (Negatives Controls . NC), with and without enzyme supplementation) and one positive control (PC). In the performance trial was utilized seven replicates of 40 birds per unity experimental and in digestibility trial, six replicates with 15 birds each. The phytase utilized was the Phyzyme XP 5000 G supplemented at 500, 750 and 1000 U of phytase in the NC1, NC2 and NC3, respectively. The digestibility trials were conducted from 14 to 21 and 28 to 35 days of age. Were utilized the metods of partial excreta and ileal digest collection. The acid insoluble ash were used as indigestible marker. In 14 to 21 days of age, the nutritional reduction of diets resulted in lower ME, DE, DCDM and DCAA (except for of Val, Iso, Tir, Phe and Leu digestibility) compared to PC diet. The interaction (P<0,05) for DE, DCIC and DCAA showed that the phytase supplementation on the NC1 and NC2 diets increased these parameters. In the 28 to 35 days, ME and DE were lower compared to CP only of NC2 and NC3. The DCAA of the NC without and with phytase supplementation were superior of the diet PC, except for Arg, Cis and His. There was interaction (P<0,05) for ME, DE, DCDM and the phytase addition on the NC2 and NC3 diets increased these coefficients. The phytase addition increased the DCICP at 5 % and DCAA in 2,89%. The phytase supplementation on the NC increased the digestibility of the all minerals in study. At 21 and 42 days, the reduction of nutrients caused a negative effect on weight gain, feed intake and carcass yield... (complete abstract, access undermentioned eletronic address)
