Abstract:
The article examines the formation of the Chipko environmental movement, whose activity in 1980 led to the suspension of long-term deforestation in northern India. The historical connection of Chipko with the campaigns of forest satyagraha, which were widespread in northern India during the struggle for independence, is examined. It is shown what role such Gandhian leaders as Mira Behn and Sarala Behn played in transforming the goals of satyagraha. Attention is drawn to the role of such a women's organization as Sarvodaya Mandal, which has become Chipko's organizational basis. The important organizational and philosophical role of such an environmental movement leader as Sunderlal Bahuguna, who became Chipko's true soul, is shown. The role of Vandana Shiva, which is not only a researcher of the Chipko movement, but is also a leading environmental theorist and practitioner of modern India, is examined.

Abstract:
The article examines the role of the ideological successors of Mahatma Gandhi in the development of his teaching on spiritual resistance to violence – Satyagraha. Much attention is paid to the history of the transformation of Forest Satyagraha campaigns, which were characteristic of the period of the struggle of India for independence, into the Chipko social movement that arose during the period of Independence. The contribution of “two English daughters” of Gandhi, Mira Ben and Sarala Ben, and an Indian woman Vandana Shiva, in the formulation of new goals for Forest Satyagraha, is analyzed. Mira Ben states the need to stop cutting down the forests of the Himalayas due to the danger of flooding and causing economic damage to rural communities. Sarala Ben discusses the dangers of a modernizing development concept and opposes it to the thesis of the importance of maintaining the climatic balance in northern India to prevent droughts and floods. Vandana Shiva, summarizing the experience of Forest Satyagraha and the Chipko movement, speaks of the priority of sustainable development over the strategy of economic growth. The article shows that the creative development of Gandhi’s ideas in relation to the protection of Indian forests and the survival of rural communities, carried out by the three successors of Gandhi in India, is important for creating a sustainable world, especially in a highly integrated global economic system.

Abstract:
Women and nature are connected in many different ways: with their biological status, reproductive role, discrimination. That is why ecofeminism stands for one of the main theoretical, philosophical and even practical ways of resolving the environmental problems. The representatives of this thinking find that changing positions and behaviors by leaving the patriarchal approach to everything - to the women and to the nature, can stop the degradation of the environment. Demographic significance of the women?s role, in context of environmental changes, was represented by some feminist movements, as Chipko movement in India, Green Belt movement in Kenya, Love Canal in State of New York, etc. In this paper, the author gives a short overview of connections between women and nature, and proposes some new solutions.

Abstract:
AbstractWomen's voices within the Christian and Hindu traditions contain theoretical and practical resources for dealing with issues of ecological concern. Hinduism's teachings about Mother Earth and newly crafted eco-feminist theories in Christianity provide a philosophical context for regarding the earth as sacred. The Chipko movement, organized and implemented by local women, prevented the commercial harvesting of lumber and its consequent habitat destruction in India's Uttaranchal Province. In North America, members of Christian women's religious orders have converted many of their properties to organic gardening and teaching centers, and into wildlife sanctuaries. Both movements are providing models for ecological sustainability.

AbstractWe argue that the dominant geometry of development should be discarded, given the many limitations this model imposes on development policies and programs. Following a description of the dominant geometry of development, we critique this conceptualization based on grounds of morality and validity. Referencing illustrations of Japan as a development donor and the Chipko movement as an engaged community, we argue that new alternative geometries of development consider other structural and social arrangements. Finally, we consider more holistic, alternative perspectives that integrate material welfare with other humanitarian issues that transcend national boundaries.

Abstract:
Declared by the United Nations as the International Year of the Forest, 2011 demonstrated the signi#cance of forest ecosystems to all humans and the entire Earth. Religions had already become important allies in preventing damage to forests. Different religious traditions offer various proposals for forest conservation and afforestation. Since 1970 and especially after the jubilee year of 2000, people of faith established many ecological organizations to engage in environmental conservation because of their religious beliefs. All major religious traditions have a lot to offer. This article examines the way organized religions and faith-based ecological organizations are engaged in many environmental projects concerning forest ecosystems. It looks at the ecological activity of faith-based organizations such as the Chipko Movement, Appiko movement, Swadhyaya community, and the Ecological Movement of St. Francis of Assisi. The article shows that the actualization of religious potential in protecting forests is accomplished through active prevention of deforestation and climate change, afforestation, and the implementation of environmentally friendly technology.

Full text
Abstract:
The Indian Chipko movement is analyzed as a case study employing a geographically-informed political ecology approach. Political ecology as a framework for the study of environmental movements provides insight into the complex issues surrounding the structure of Indian society, with particular attention to its ecological and political dimensions. This framework, with its focus on social structure and ecology, is distinct from the more traditional approaches to the study of social movements, which tend to essentialize their purpose and membership, often by focusing on a single dimension of the movement and its context. Using Chipko as a case-study, the author demonstrates how a geographical approach to political ecology avoids some of this essentialization by encouraging a holistic analysis of environmental movements that is characterized by a bottom-up analysis, grounded at the local level, which also considers the wider context of the movements growth by synthesizing socio-political and ecological analyses. Also explored are questions on the importance of gender-informed approaches to the study of environmental activism and participation in environmental movements in India.

Abstract:
The importance of activity during the development of central components of the nervous system such as the visual system has long been recognized (Wiesel & Hubel 1963) and it is beginning to be understood that sensory experience and motor behavior are equally important for neuromuscular development (Brumley et al. 2015; Sharp & Bekoff 2015). The chick embryo model has proven to be especially useful in studying the relationships among motor behavior, sensory experience, and neuromuscular development (Oppenheim et al. 1978; Sharp & Bekoff 2001) due to its accessibility and early onset of movement behavior. Traditionally, neuromuscular blockers have been used to broadly study the role of neural activity and muscle activity during development (Oppenheim et al. 1978; Ding et al. 1983). In order to noninvasively alter neural activity in specific populations of cells, the Sharp lab has developed an optogenetic approach that allows the expression of ChIEF, a variant of channelrhodopsin-2, in the spinal cord of living chick embryos (Sharp & Fromherz 2011). In order to better understand the unique role that muscle activity plays in neuromuscular development, it would be advantageous to directly and noninvasively control muscle activity through light-activation of ChIEF expressed in muscle fibers. Therefore, the primary objective of this thesis research was to achieve ChIEF expression in the plasma membrane of myotubes in living chick embryos. Initial attempts to express ChIEF in chick muscle resulted in low success rates. The CAG promoter in pPB-ChIEF-Tom, the plasmid vector that encodes ChIEF, was likely hindering expression of ChIEF in muscle tissue. Therefore, standard molecular cloning techniques were used to replace the CAG promoter with the myosin light chain promoter which was known to drive transgene expression in chick muscle (Wang et al. 2011). The new DNA construct that resulted from modifying pPB-ChIEF-Tom was identified as pPB-MLC-ChIEF-Tom (mChIEF). ChIEF was successfully expressed in hindlimb muscles of chick embryos via somite electroporation of mChIEF and observed between E7 and E18. Expression patterns corresponded with the current understanding of muscle progenitor contributions of somites to hindlimb muscles (Rees et al. 2003). ChIEF was located in the outer membrane of muscle fibers on E9, E14, and E18 when tissue was histologically examined in conjunction with myosin heavy chain immunofluorescence. Importantly, light-activation of ChIEF in the hindlimb muscle of living chick embryos resulted in muscle contraction and light-evoked hindlimb movements. In addition to demonstrating the functionality of ChIEF expression, an effort was made to characterize the effects of altered parameters of light stimuli on light-evoked movement and determine whether light-evoked muscle contraction could be used to imitate normal, neuronal muscle control. Light intensity was directly related to amplitude and rate of light-evoked movement. Light duration was directly related to amplitude and latency of peak movement. Unfused and fused tetanus were observed when bursts of short duration light pulses with varying interpulse intervals were used to activate ChIEF. This thesis research strongly suggests that light-activation of ChIEF expressed in living, chick embryo hindlimb muscle results in muscle contractions in manner similar to normal, neurally-driven muscle contraction.

Full text
Abstract:
Cell migration involves dynamic and spatially regulated changes to the cytoskeleton. During avian gastrulation, cells ingress through the primitive streak. Previous characterisation of microtubule organisation during this process revealed the distribution of cells with polarised and radial arrays across different regions of the embryo. Interestingly, many cells organised into groups arranged in rosette-like structures. As the primitive streak regresses and the neural folds gather at the centre of the embryo, bands of paraxial mesoderm that lie either side of the neural tube separate into somites. As new somites form caudally, the more rostral somites undergo a process of morphogenesis. Each somite divides into two regions: the dermomyotome and the sclerotome. Little is known about the cytoskeletonduring this process. Signalling by the Wnt family of secreted proteins influences the fate of cells during early embryonic patterning, cell movement, and cell polarity, processes in which the cytoskeleton is noticeably modified. The microtubule and actin crosslinking factor-1/actin crosslinking factor-7 (MACF1/ACF7) protein has been implicated in Wnt signalling and, additionally, its regulation has been shown to be important in cell migration. This thesis concentrates on cellular dynamics and organisation (and the associated cytoskeleton) during chick gastrulation and somitogenesis. The aims of this project were to a) further characterise the cytoskeleton in cells that ingress into the avian primitive streak. b) Establish a published electroporation technique, which permits the targeting of different regions of the somite and subsequently observe cells (and their associated cytoskeleton) in real time. c) Determine the expression pattern for MACF1/ACF7 in chick. d) To ascertain if there is a direct role for canonical Wnt signalling in somitic myofibre orientation/organisation.

Abstract:
Behavioural studies described embryonic motility as random and lacking coordination whereas electrophysiological studies found orderly, reliable patterns of motor neuron recruitment suggesting the potential for coordinated movement exists early in development. To address this apparent paradox, the study measured and described patterns of joint excursions in the ipsilateral wing and leg of the chick embryo at embryonic day 9, in ovo, during spontaneous motility. Methods were developed to obtain kinematic measures, corrected for movement out-of-plane, from video recordings of continuous activity. Within a limb, synchronous movement of joints into flexion and extension was the prevailing pattern in all embryos. Between limbs, synchronous movements were present but less common, however, there were distinct, orderly spatiotemporal patterns of ankle and elbow excursions suggesting that movements of ipsilateral limbs are nonrandom and partially interdependent. Results suggest that organized, coordinated movements are a reliable feature of embryonic motility.

Abstract:
Declining populations of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter sage-grouse) have increased stakeholder concerns regarding the management and stability of the species range-wide. Numerous conservation strategies have been identified to restoring sage-grouse population declines to include species translocations. Translocations have been used for many different wildlife species to help sustain genetic heterogeneity, reestablish, and augment declining populations. In a recent translocation study, researchers identified the protocols used to successfully translocate sage-grouse to restore declining populations in Strawberry Valley, Utah. This translocation occurred in a high elevation basin buffered by geomorphic barriers. I evaluated these protocols for use in translocating sage-grouse to augment a declining population that inhabited Anthro Mountain in northwest Utah. Anthro Mountain is a high elevation mountain dominated by sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) void of geomorphic barriers. I compared annual production, survival (i.e., vital rates), habitat use, and movements of translocated birds and their progeny to the resident population. Lastly, I described the integration of translocated birds with resident birds and the overall efficacy of the translocation effort. I radio-collared and monitored 60 translocated female sage-grouse from Parker Mountain, Utah over a 2-year period (2009 and 2010) and compared their vital rates to 19 radio-marked resident sage-grouse. Adult survival was similar for resident and translocated birds, but higher for both groups in 2010 than in 2009. However, overall survival of both resident and translocated birds was lower than range-wide survival estimates. Nest success was slightly higher for resident birds than translocated birds but positively correlated to grass height for both groups. Chick survival was also slightly higher for resident birds than for translocated birds, and higher overall in 2010 than in 2009. Chick survival was positively correlated to grass cover for both groups. Translocated birds used similar habitats and exhibited migration behaviors similar to resident birds. From a methodology perspective, the translocations protocols were successful because the translocated birds quickly acclimated to the release area, and their survival and reproductive success were similar to the resident birds. The effect of the translocation on augmenting the local population was inconclusive.

Abstract:
High-performance computing (HPC) systems have become power limited. For instance, the U.S. Department of Energy set a power envelope of 20MW in 2008 for the first exascale supercomputer now expected to arrive in 2021--22. Toward this end, we seek to improve the greenness of HPC systems by improving their performance per watt at the allocated power budget. In this dissertation, we develop a series of models and techniques to manage power at micro-, meso-, and macro-levels of the system hierarchy, specifically addressing data movement and heterogeneity. We target the chip interconnect at the micro-level, heterogeneous nodes at the meso-level, and a supercomputing cluster at the macro-level. Overall, our goal is to improve the greenness of HPC systems by intelligently managing power. The first part of this dissertation focuses on measurement and modeling problems for power. First, we study how to infer chip-interconnect power by observing the system-wide power consumption. Our proposal is to design a novel micro-benchmarking methodology based on data-movement distance by which we can properly isolate the chip interconnect and measure its power. Next, we study how to develop software power meters to monitor a GPU's power consumption at runtime. Our proposal is to adapt performance counter-based models for their use at runtime via a combination of heuristics, statistical techniques, and application-specific knowledge. In the second part of this dissertation, we focus on managing power. First, we propose to reduce the chip-interconnect power by proactively managing its dynamic voltage and frequency (DVFS) state. Toward this end, we develop a novel phase predictor that uses approximate pattern matching to forecast future requirements and in turn, proactively manage power. Second, we study the problem of applying a power cap to a heterogeneous node. Our proposal proactively manages the GPU power using phase prediction and a DVFS power model but reactively manages the CPU. The resulting hybrid approach can take advantage of the differences in the capabilities of the two devices. Third, we study how in-situ techniques can be applied to improve the greenness of HPC clusters. Overall, in our dissertation, we demonstrate that it is possible to infer power consumption of real hardware components without directly measuring them, using the chip interconnect and GPU as examples. We also demonstrate that it is possible to build models of sufficient accuracy and apply them for intelligently managing power at many levels of the system hierarchy.
Doctor of Philosophy
Past research in green high-performance computing (HPC) mostly focused on managing the power consumed by general-purpose processors, known as central processing units (CPUs) and to a lesser extent, memory. In this dissertation, we study two increasingly important components: interconnects (predominantly focused on those inside a chip, but not limited to them) and graphics processing units (GPUs). Our contributions in this dissertation include a set of innovative measurement techniques to estimate the power consumed by the target components, statistical and analytical approaches to develop power models and their optimizations, and algorithms to manage power statically and at runtime. Experimental results show that it is possible to build models of sufficient accuracy and apply them for intelligently managing power on multiple levels of the system hierarchy: chip interconnect at the micro-level, heterogeneous nodes at the meso-level, and a supercomputing cluster at the macro-level.

Abstract:
A pesquisa aqui apresentada centra-se na movimentação cultural conhecida como Movimento Mangue ou Manguebeat, que tomou forma no Recife, na década de 1990. Mais especificamente, estudam-se as obras das duas bandas de maior repercussão dentro do movimento: Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi. Através de sua descrição e estudo, deseja-se verificar se é possível caracterizar o Manguebeat enquanto um movimento de vanguarda. Para isso, busca-se nos estudos de Guillermo de Torre, Peter Bürger, Gonzalo Aguilar, Antonio Candido, Ferreira Gullar, entre outros críticos, uma definição para o conceito de vanguarda. Depois, procura-se traçar de que modo os conceitos angariados norteariam as análises desta dissertação. A seguir, verifica-se a possível existência de duas vertentes dentro do Manguebeat: uma representada por Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e por Nação Zumbi e seu conceito de Mangue; e outra que agrupa os demais artistas participantes da movimentação. Ao fazer esta distinção, é possível compreender as diferenças entre o trabalho das duas primeiras bandas e o dos outros vários artistas que também se integraram ao movimento. Será visto que Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi concentram em suas canções um ideal vanguardista bastante relevante, especialmente no que concerne o afastamento do particular, conforme noção de Guillermo de Torre. Foi organizado, então, um corpus de canções dessas bandas, de modo a verificar quais características vanguardistas encontradas nos estudos acerca do tema estariam presentes em suas obras. Busca-se também mostrar alguns aspectos e trabalhos mais relevantes dentre aqueles que fazem parte do segundo conjunto de artistas, que também fizeram parte do movimento, mas compartilhando com as primeiras apenas a noção de liberdade criativa, e não todos os preceitos do conceito de Mangue. Acredita-se que foi possível determinar que tanto o trabalho de Chico Science & Nação Zumbi e Nação Zumbi, quanto o Manguebeat como um todo, podem ser considerados movimento de vanguarda, graças, entre outros aspectos, à ruptura que provocam em seu contexto cultural.
The research presented here is focused in the cultural movement known as Movimento Mangue or Manguebeat, which appeared in the Brazilian city of Recife in the 1990’s. More specifically, the works of the two most important in the movement bands is studied: Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi. Through its description and study, it is wished to verify if it is possible to characterize Manguebeat as an Avant-garde movement. In order to achieve that objective, we will analyze the studies of Guillermo de Torre, Peter Bürger, Gonzalo Aguilar, Antonio Candido, Ferreira Gullar, and other critics, searching for a definition to the concept of Avant-garde. Afterwards, we will trace in which ways the concepts raised will guide the analysis of the thesis. Hereafter, a possible existence of two sides inside Manguebeat will be verified: one represented by Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi and their concept of Mangue; and another one that groups the other artists that took part in the movement. By making this distinction, it will be possible to understand the differences between the work of the two first bands cited and that of the other artists that also joined the movement. It is observed observed that Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi concentrate in their songs an Avant-garde ideal quite relevant, especially in what concerns the rejection of what is particular, following the notion of Guillermo de Torre. A corpus will then be organized, formed by songs of these two bands, in order to verify which Avant-garde characteristics found in the studies of the theme would be present in their works. It is also our intention to show some aspects and more relevant works among those that are part of the second group of artists: those who took part in the movement, but only sharing with the first two the notion of creative freedom, and not the whole concept of Mangue. It is intended then to determine whether both the works of Chico Science & Nação Zumbi and Nação Zumbi and Manguebeat as a whole can be considered Avant-garde, thanks to, among other aspects, the break they bring to their cultural context.

Abstract:
The avian embryo is a popular animal model because it is widely available (Antin et al., 2004), it is easily manipulated, and it can provide important insights into normal and abnormal embryo development (Kulesa, 2004). While in vivo and in vitro cultures of chick embryos are common, in ovo cultures are rarer, and none have been designed where the egg did not have to be resealed afterwards. The present study aimed to develop a set-up in which the egg would be windowed without resealing the egg so that the embryo would remain accessible for experimental manipulation. As well, this study aimed to track cell movement during neurulation by microinjecting points of dye along the embryo. Two prototypes were developed based on the concept that temperature and moisture controlled air passing over the windowed egg would serve as a blanket. When these prototypes were unable to keep the embryo alive, a protocol developed by Kulesa and Fraser (2004) was adapted for the study. This protocol involved the construction of a Teflon window which was placed in the windowed egg and sealed with beeswax. Initial microinjection tests with Fast Green FCF showed that the dye dissipated quickly after injection, most likely because of the hydrophilicity of the dye. Therefore, a list of non-fluorescent, hydrophobic dyes were chosen and tested for suitability to cell tracking. Time restrictions prevented the actual cell tracking experiments from taking place, but it was found that Oil Red O fulfilled the criteria. As Oil Red O is usually used to identify lipids in static experiments, it remains to be seen whether it would function as a vital dye. Future experiments include expanding the set-up for use with a confocal microscope for a 4-D rendering of cell movement, and taking advantage of the symmetrical nature of neurulation in the chick embryo to examine perturbations to the normal progress of development, via drugs such as valproic acid.

In her detailed retelling of three iconic movements in India, Professor Emerita Krishna Mallick, PhD, gives hope to grassroots activists working toward environmental justice. Each movement deals with a different crisis and affected population: Chipko, famed for tree-hugging women in the Himalayan forest; Narmada, for villagers displaced by a massive dam; and Navdanya, for hundreds of thousands of farmers whose livelihoods were lost to a compact made by the Indian government and neoliberal purveyors of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Relentlessly researched, the book presents these movements in a framework that explores Hindu Vedic wisdom, as well as Development Ethics, Global Environment Ethics, Feminist Care Ethics, and the Capability Approach. At a moment when the climate threatens populations who live closest to nature--and depend upon its fodder for heat, its water for life, and its seeds for food--Mallick shows how nonviolent action can give poor people an effective voice.

Abstract:
‘Ecology and indigeneity’ assesses how postcolonial studies have shifted in emphasis from colonial history of exploitation colonies to those where the settler colonists themselves were the ones who achieved independence. This has led to an increasing focus on the relation between settlers and indigenous peoples of settler colonies whose land was appropriated or is being destroyed through resource extraction. A concern for ecology, particularly in the context of its destruction by modern industrial capitalism and its products, has also led to a different awareness of the richness of the traditions of indigenous people. Indigenous ecopolitics can be studied the examples of the Chipko movement in India and Greenbelt Movement in Kenya.

Abstract:
This chapter explores some important examples of modern Hindu environmentalism. Hinduism contains numerous references to the worship of the divine in nature in its Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, Sutras, and its other sacred texts. Millions of Hindus recite Sanskrit mantras daily to revere rivers, mountains, trees, animals, and the earth. Although the Chipko (tree-hugging) Movement is the most widely known example of Hindu environmental leadership, there are examples of Hindu action for the environment that are centuries old. Mahatma Gandhi exemplified many of the Hindu teachings, and his example continues to inspire contemporary social, religious, and environmental leaders in their efforts to protect the planet.

Abstract:
Key aspects of sustainable development and resilience include empowerment of local people, self-reliance, and social justice. One way to achieve those aspects is to incorporate experience, knowledge, and understanding of various groups and people. The terms “stakeholders” and “partnerships” are often used to characterize engaging organized interest groups and the general public into resource and environmental planning. This chapter reviews characteristics of stakeholder engagement through partnerships. Attention also is given to the role of local knowledge, including gender perspectives, to inform plans and decisions. In-depth case studies include a state-wide network of partnerships in Wisconsin, stakeholder consultation to manage conflict between commercial fishers and tourism in a natural park in Mexico, the Chipko movement in India, and gender engagement regarding climate change in Nepal. Wendy Cridland, in her guest statement, examines partnership initiatives to address proliferation of an aggressive invasive non-native weed species in coastal wetlands of Lake Erie, Ontario.

Full text
Abstract:
Due to continuous tool engagement, turning processes tend to form long chips when machining ductile materials. These chip shapes have a negative influence on process performance and productivity. One approach to improve chip breakage is superimposition of vibrations in feed direction of the turning process, which leads to a modulation of uncut chip thickness. In a joint industrial project with Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KG, Fraunhofer IWU developed an oscillating actuator for turning. The actuator converts a rotational movement of a drive motor into a translational vibration via an eccentric gear. The tool shank is mounted in solid joint assemblies. With this prototypical system, a cyclic movement of the tool in feed direction can be realized. The typical operating parameters of the actuator is within the range of 1...100 Hz with adjustable vibration amplitudes up to 0.6 mm peak-to-peak. A significant improvement in chip breaking during the machining of steel 1.0503 was shown in cutting tests.

Abstract:
There are great advantages in dry hobbing not only for friendliness on the environment, but also for increasing productivity and for decreasing manufacturing cost. Dry hobbing, however, often causes failures of cutting edge of hob or problems about the surface quality of tooth flank of manufactured gear, which have not been of problem in case of hobbing with cutting oil. Pinching and crushing of generated chips between cutting edge of hob and tooth flank of work gear is considered to be a major cause for those problems. In this report, a calculating method of trace of each cutting edge of hob relative to work gear is compiled to simulate the clearance between cutting edge of hob and tooth flank of work gear. The thickness and form of generated chip and its movement on rake surface of hob tooth during hobbing process can be clarified by consulting the result of this simulation. Probability of pinching of chips between cutting edges of hob and tooth flank can be evaluated by dealing with the relation among the position and width of clearance, chip thickness and direction of chip movement, which contributes to successful dry hobbing.

Abstract:
PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) is widely used as a microfluidic chip material for various applications due to its desirable properties [1, 2]. However PDMS has several drawbacks that limit its utilization in a number of microfluidic applications [1–4]. Properties such as the hydrophobic nature, sample absorption, and low electrokinetic properties (low zeta potential) are some issues that must be considered before using PDMS for numerous applications [3]. In many PDMS based chips electroosmotic pumping is used for fluid flow and sample transport along the microchannel networks. Simplicity of implementation in microfluidic chips, fast response time, and the plug-like velocity profile are the major advantages of electroosmotic flow compared to other fluid pumping techniques [2]. This type of flow utilizes the formation of electric double layer (EDL) in microchannels and the movement of ions under an applied external electric field. Thus, the surface properties of the channel material and liquid properties (ionic concentration, pH, and viscosity) play major roles in electroosmotic pumping for different solutions in microchannels.

Abstract:
Abstract Drilling is one of most executed manufacturing operations to assist the assembling of different engineering components. In orbital drilling process, a milling tool is rotating along its own axis in combination with the spiral rotational movement. The rotation of tool about its own axis is with high rotational speed, but the spiral movement of tool is at low rotational speed. These rotational movements generate a hollow geometry when moved in combination. Orbital drilling process is emerging as a viable drilling process when burr formation has to be reduced from the metallic workpiece. It is gaining more popularity in the aerospace industry due to its ability to machine holes in difficult to cut alloys, composites and composite stacks. Major advantages of orbital drilling are linked with efficient chip evacuation, reduction in heat build-up and low thrust forces due to its intermittent cutting nature. The cutting forces generated during the process can be taken as a significant output parameter that play a vital role towards the overall performance of the cutting process. Controlling the cutting forces under threshold value can improve the overall machining efficiency by limiting associated deflections, tool wear and energy consumption. The current paper aims to study the orbital drilling process using finite element (FE) assisted numerical methodology. The study will utilize different orbital drilling parameters such as spindle speed, orbit speed and axial feed rate, and explore their influence on the over all machining process.

Full text
Abstract:
At the end of gastrulation, the endoderm forms a single-cell thick epithelium lining the ventral surface of the developing embryo. Subsequently, through a series of poorly understood events, the initially flat endoderm is transformed into the gut tube, a cylindrical structure that gives rise to the epithelial lining of the entire respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. In birds and mammals, formation of the gut tube begins with two invaginations at the anterior (head) and posterior (tail) poles of the embryo, termed the anterior (AIP) and caudal intestinal portals (CIP). It is thought that the AIP and CIP begin moving toward one another as two progressing waves of lateral-to medial folding (from left and right toward center), “zipping” the gut tube closed along the embryonic midline (Fig. 1A). This view of lateral-to-medial folding is, however, inconsistent with several observations. For example, fate mapping studies in chick and mouse that suggest that cells originating in the posterior end (toward the tail) of the flat endoderm do not form the hindgut, but instead contribute to the more anterior midgut [1, 2]. This would not be possible in a simple lateral-to-medial folding process. Therefore, it is largely unknown how this fundamental structure of the vertebrate body plan is established. The objective of the present work is to apply multi-photon live imaging of the chick embryo to determine how the hindgut is formed. Our findings suggest the hindgut arises from directed, collective cell movements that drive antero-posterior folding of the initially flat endoderm.

Abstract:
Emulsification is an important process in various fields including foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals. Emulsification operation is commonly conducted using conventional emulsification devices, such as high-speed blenders, colloid mills, high-pressure homogenizers, and ultrasonic homogenizers. However, these emulsification devices result in the production of polydisperse emulsions with wide droplet size distributions and poor controllability in droplet size and its distribution. In contrast, monodisperse emulsions consisting of monosize droplets have received a great deal of attentions over the past decade due to their high-tech applications, e.g., monosize microparticles as spacers for electronic devices and monosize micro-carriers for drug delivery systems (DDS). Our group proposed microchannel (MC) emulsification as a promising technique to produce monodisperse emulsions in the mid 1990s. Micro/Nanochannel (MNC) emulsification enables generating monosize droplets with the smallest coefficient of variation (CV) of below 5% using MC and nanochannel (NC) arrays of unique geometry. The resultant droplet size, which ranged from 0.5 to 200 μm, can be precisely controlled by channel geometry. Droplet generation for MNC emulsification is very mild and does not require any external shear stress; a dispersed phase that passed through channels is transformed spontaneously into monosize droplets inside a continuous-phase domain. The aim of this paper is to present recent developments in MNC emulsification chips, particularly focusing on asymmetric straight-through MC arrays for large-scale production of monodisperse emulsions. Asymmetric straight-through MC array chips were fabricated using a silicon-on-insulator wafer. Numerous asymmetric straight-through MCs each consisting of a microslot and a narrow MC were positioned in the central region of the chip. Monosize droplets were stably generated via asymmetric straight-through MCs at high production rates. Below a critical droplet production rate, monosize droplets were generated via asymmetric straight-through MCs, with droplet size and size distribution independent of the droplet productivity. The use of a large asymmetric straight-through MC array chip achieved the mass production of monosize tetradecane oil droplets at ∼1 L/h. The simulation results using CFD (computational fluid dynamics) agreed well with the experimental results and provided useful information, such as the movement of the oil-water interface during droplet generation. Monosize submicron droplets were also obtained using NC emulsification chips made of single-crystal silicon.

Abstract:
This article discusses the current state of neurointerface technologies, not limited to deep electrode approaches. There are new heuristic ideas for creating a fast and broadband channel from the brain to artificial intelligence. One of the ideas is not to decipher the natural codes of nerve cells, but to create conditions for the development of a new language for communication between the human brain and artificial intelligence tools. Theoretically, this is possible if the brain "feels" that by changing the activity of nerve cells that communicate with the computer, it is possible to "achieve" the necessary actions for the body in the external environment, for example, to take a cup of coffee or turn on your favorite music. At the same time, an artificial neural network that analyzes the flow of nerve impulses must also be directed at the brain, trying to guess the body's needs at the moment with a minimum number of movements. The most important obstacle to further progress is the problem of biocompatibility, which has not yet been resolved. This is even more important than the number of electrodes and the power of the processors on the chip. When you insert a foreign object into your brain, it tries to isolate itself from it. This is a multidisciplinary topic not only for doctors and psychophysiologists, but also for engineers, programmers, mathematicians. Of course, the problem is complex and it will be possible to overcome it only with joint efforts.
