Abstract:

This article examines the question of why local food has become, for many activists and scholars, a core concept for understanding food systems and globalization and for challenging systems of injustice and inequality. I begin with the French concept of terroir, which is often translated as the “taste of place,” and examine why this term, part of France's cultural common sense, is difficult to implement in other places. I then consider efforts to use local foods to grapple with the forces of globalization and efforts to use ideas about local food to moralize capitalism and humanize food distribution systems. I examine the relationship between movements for food sovereignty and food justice with local foods. Finally, I explore the uses of local foods as part of efforts to develop, assert, and sometimes market local, regional, or national identities.

Abstract:

The location of individuals determines their job and schooling opportunities, amenities, and housing costs. We conceptualize the location choice of individuals as a decision to invest in a “location asset.” This asset has a current cost equal to the location's rent, and a future payoff through better job and schooling opportunities. As with any asset, savers in the location asset transfer resources into the future by going to expensive locations with high future returns. In contrast, borrowers transfer resources to the present by going to cheap locations that offer few other advantages. Holdings of the location asset depend on its comparison to other assets, with the distinction that the location asset is not subject to borrowing constraints. We propose a dynamic location model and derive an agent's mobility choices after experiencing income shocks. We document the investment dimension of location and confirm the core predictions of our theory using French individual panel data from tax returns.

Abstract:

ObjectiveWe assessed patient clinical outcomes based on occlusion location, focusing on distal occlusions to understand if occlusion location was an independent predictor of outcome, and tested the relationship between occlusion location and baseline ischemic core, a known predictor of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 90 days.MethodsWe analyzed a prospectively collected cohort of thrombolysis-eligible ischemic stroke patients from the International Stroke Perfusion Imaging Registry who underwent multimodal CT pretreatment. For the primary analysis, logistic regression was used to predict the effect of occlusion location and ischemic core on the likelihood of excellent (mRS 0–1) and favorable (mRS 0–2) 90-day outcomes.ResultsThis study included 945 patients. The rates of excellent and favorable outcome in patients with distal occlusion (M2, M3 segment of middle cerebral artery, anterior cerebral artery, and posterior cerebral artery) were higher than M1 occlusions (mRS 0%–1%, 55% vs 37%; mRS 0%–2%, 73% vs 50%, p < 0.001). Vessel occlusion location was not a strong predictor of outcomes compared to baseline ischemic core (area under the curve, mRS 0–1, 0.64 vs 0.83; mRS 0–2, 0.70 vs 0.86, p < 0.001). There was no interaction between occlusion location and ischemic core (interaction coefficient 1.00, p = 0.798).ConclusionsIschemic stroke patients with a distal occlusion have higher rate of excellent and favorable outcome than patients with an M1 occlusion. The baseline ischemic core was shown to be a more powerful predictor of functional outcome than the occlusion location, but the relationship between ischemic core and outcome does not different by occlusion locations.

Abstract:

Necroptosis is a lytic, proinflammatory cell death pathway, which has been implicated in host defense and, when dysregulated, the pathology of many human diseases. The central mediators of this pathway are the receptor-interacting serine/threonine protein kinases RIPK1 and RIPK3 and the terminal executioner, the pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain–like (MLKL). Here, we review the chronology of signaling along the RIPK1-RIPK3-MLKL axis and highlight how the subcellular compartmentalization of signaling events controls the initiation and execution of necroptosis. We propose that a network of modulators surrounds the necroptotic signaling core and that this network, rather than acting universally, tunes necroptosis in a context-, cell type–, and species-dependent manner. Such a high degree of mechanistic flexibility is likely an important property that helps necroptosis operate as a robust, emergency form of cell death.

Abstract:

Supersonic gas separation (SGS) is a novel gas separation technology proposed in recent years. The Inner-core SGS device with droplet enlargement measure has been proved to perform effectively for processing low-pressure gas mixture with one condensable component. The effectiveness of the droplet enlargement measure depends largely on the adding location of extra nuclei. A two-phase flow model was established in which the droplet movement was simulated by dispersed phase model. Using the model, movements of nuclei from three potential locations of Inner-core SGS device, inlet of swirl generator (Ⅰ), throat of supersonic nozzle (Ⅱ) and inner-taper core (Ⅲ), were simulated and the possibility of vapor condensation on nuclei was predicted. The simulation results showed that the droplets injected from location Ⅲ had smaller size (0.0183mm~ 0.0953mm), longer residence time (0.43 ms) and longer axial running distance (58.9 mm). The gas flow near that region had bigger supersaturation (larger than 1). Thus, the best location of Inner-core SGS device for nuclei injection was determined at the throat of the inner-taper core (Ⅲ).

AbstractThe physical conditions and locations of the emission regions for core and hollow cone emissions are very important in understanding the mechanism of radio pulsars. We present two related methods in an Inverse-Compton Scattering (ICS) model in this paper, which give a clear scenario for determining the location of the emission regions and are consistent with the results given by Cordes et al. (1984) and Rankin (1990).

Abstract:

Many program codes from different application domains process very large amounts of data, making their cache memory behavior critical for high performance. Most of the existing work targeting cache memory hierarchies focus on improving data access patterns, e.g., maximizing sequential accesses to program data structures via code and/or data layout restructuring strategies. Prior work has addressed this data locality optimization problem in the context of both single-core and multi-core systems. Another dimension of optimization, which can be as equally important/beneficial as improving data access pattern is to reduce the data volume (total number of addresses) accessed by the program code. Compared to data access pattern restructuring, this volume minimization problem has relatively taken much less attention. In this work, we focus on this volume minimization problem and address it in both single-core and multi-core execution scenarios. Specifically, we explore the idea of rewriting an application program code to reduce its "memory space footprint". The main idea behind this approach is to reuse/recycle, for a given data element, a memory location that has originally been assigned to another data element, provided that the lifetimes of these two data elements do not overlap with each other. A unique aspect is that it is "distance aware", i.e., in identifying the memory/cache locations to recycle it takes into account the physical distance between the location of the core and the memory/cache location to be recycled. We present a detailed experimental evaluation of our proposed memory space recycling strategy, using five different metrics: memory space consumption, network footprint, data access distance, cache miss rate, and execution time. The experimental results show that our proposed approach brings, respectively, 33.2%, 48.6%, 46.5%, 31.8%, and 27.9% average improvements in these metrics, in the case of single-threaded applications. With the multi-threaded versions of the same applications, the achieved improvements are 39.5%, 55.5%, 53.4%, 26.2%, and 22.2%, in the same order.

Abstract:

A classical model of gene regulation is that enhancers provide specificity whereas core promoters provide a modular site for the assembly of the basal transcriptional machinery. However, examples of core promoter specificity have led to an alternate hypothesis in which specificity is achieved by core promoters with different sequence motifs that respond differently to genomic environments containing different enhancers and chromatin landscapes. To distinguish between these models, we measured the activities of hundreds of diverse core promoters in four different genomic locations and, in a complementary experiment, six different core promoters at thousands of locations across the genome. Although genomic locations had large effects on expression, the intrinsic activities of different classes of promoters were preserved across genomic locations, suggesting that core promoters are modular regulatory elements whose activities are independently scaled up or down by different genomic locations. This scaling of promoter activities is nonlinear and depends on the genomic location and the strength of the core promoter. Our results support the classical model of regulation in which diverse core promoter motifs set the intrinsic strengths of core promoters, which are then amplified or dampened by the activities of their genomic environments.

Abstract:

The diversity of the human gut microbiota constitutes a fundamental health indicator of different populations. The relative importance of geographical location and ethnicity on the gut microbiota, however, has not been previously addressed. Due to unique ethnic distributions across China, we recruited distinct minority ethnic groups, including Han populations, in each of the seven cities that were explored in this study. We investigated the gut microbiota of 394 healthy subjects (14 groups) from these seven different cities using 16S rRNA sequencing. Our results indicated that both geographical location and ethnicity were major factors. However, geographical location exhibited greater influence than ethnicity on both the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota. In addition, a total of 15 shared biomarkers at the genus level were identified in three distinct locations, including seven in Inner Mongolia, seven in Xinjiang and one in Gansu. Furthermore, 65 unique biomarkers were found in 14 population groups, which indicated specific communities in different populations. Based on the gut microbiota species, two main enterotypes—namely Prevotella (ETP) and Bacteroides (ETB), which consist of Prevotella and Bacteroides as the core bacterial genus, were observed in Chinese populations. Our unique experimental design using the same ethnic group—Han, as a control in different locations, enables delineating the importance of geographical location and ethnicity on the gut microbiota, and provides the fundamental characteristics of gut microbiota diversity in Chinese populations.

Abstract:

Abstract Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) are known to be a source of several important B-vitamins, including niacin (Vitamin B3). A total of 39 Florunner and NC7 samples from the 2007 and 2008 Uniform Peanut Performance Test (UPPT) were analyzed to compare their niacin content from 10 different growing locations in the U.S. From the Core of the Core of the peanut germplasm collection, 13 selected samples grown in North Carolina in 2008 were analyzed. Over 2 years and 10 locations, raw Florunner niacin levels ranged from 8.8 to 21.9 mg/100g DW. Mean niacin concentration in 2007 was 15.7 mg/100g DW and 17.8 mg/100g DW in 2008. Raw samples of NC7 averaged 19.0 mg/100g DW in 2007 and 20.3 mg/100g DW in 2008. The varietal difference was statistically significant as were differences among growing locations. The lowest niacin levels were found in the Virginia-Carolina region and the highest in Texas and Oklahoma. Although the 2008 niacin means were higher than 2007, the increase was not statistically significant. Roasting raw 2008 samples caused niacin levels to drop 12% (p = 0.0212) in Florunner and 6% in NC7 (p = 0.0128). Mean niacin concentrations in the Core of the Core samples were found to range from 13.9 to 20.7 mg/100g DW. Levels of niacin in the Core samples tested were found to be higher than Florunner (12.2 mg/100 DW) and NC7 samples (13.8 mg/100g DW) grown at the same location and in the same year. Significant differences in niacin content among NC7 and Florunner UPPT entries across 10 locations indicated a potential for genetic variation that is potentially exploitable by breeders. This is supported by the significant differences found among the Core of the Core entries and NC7 and Florunner samples from the same location and year.

Abstract:

This paper models how a firm’s capability relative to that of the other firm affects his location choice in the marketplace. Weaker firms strategically avoid head-to-head competition with stronger ones. When the capability gap is small, weaker firms randomly visit the core market of competitors (the “dodge” strategy). By doing so, they can trigger competitors to leave the demands of boundary markets in order to defend their core markets. When the capability gap is medium, they focus their resources on niches to fight for survival (the “niche” strategy). These strategies differ from those of stronger firms, which defend on core markets when the capability gap is small and build new markets when the capability gap becomes larger. Results show that those location choices can be understood using game theoretical models – the Hotelling model and the Colonel Blotto game. The paper’s results also explain the empirical observation that small businesses are more likely than large firms to make radical investments in R&D.

Abstract:

Abstract Impurity seeding has been found effective for divertor detachment operations and the seeding location plays a key role in this process. In this work, we use the fluid code SOLPS-ITER to study the influence of seeding locations on divertor and scrape-off layer (D-SOL) plasmas in Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) with neon seeding. Simulation results indicate that the neon is a highly effective impurity in mitigating the heat flux and electron temperature peaks on the target of the divertor and achieving the partial detachment on both inner and outer targets. Further, by comparing results of the seeding at the private-flux region (PFR) plate (called ‘TP’ location) and the outer target (called ‘XP’ location), we find that the impurity density and power radiation for TP case are higher in core and upstream regions and lower in the divertor region than that for seeding at the XP, and the difference becomes more and more obvious as the seeding rate increases. It clearly demonstrates that the seeding at the XP location is more appropriate than at the TP location, especially in high seeding rate conditions.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTAerodynamic mixing of a Mach 2 jet controlled with rectangular flat tab with length equal to the nozzle exit diameter, placed at locations 0.25D, 0.5D and 0.75D, downstream of the nozzle exit, has been studied in the presence of different levels of pressure gradients corresponding to nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) range from 3 to 8. The mixing modification associated with shifted tabs is compared with the mixing caused by the same tab at the nozzle exit (0D). The aerodynamic mixing caused by the mass transporting small-scale vortices shed from the edges of the tab placed at the shifted position is found to be appreciably larger than the tab at nozzle exit, for some levels of pressure gradient. For some other levels of nozzle expansion, mixing caused by the shifted tab is comparable to that of tab at nozzle exit. The waves present in the core of the jet controlled with shifted tab were found to be weaker than that of the jet controlled with tab at nozzle exit. At a marginally underexpanded state corresponding to NPR 8, jet core length reduction caused by the tab at 0.75D is about 39.21%, which is closer to the reduction of 40.2%, caused by the tab at 0D. The corresponding core length reduction for tab at 0.25D and 0.5D are 38.16% and 20%, respectively.

Abstract:

136 Background: Targeted mpMRI fusion biopsy has gained adoption with superior clinically significant cancer detection rates and accuracy over template biopsy. We sought to establish the role of biopsy location within a prostate lesion to detect clinically significant prostate cancer. Methods: From Nov 2016-Aug 2017, 110 patients with positive multiparametric-MRI (mpMRI) underwent targeted and systematic MRI-US fusion biopsy at our institution for clinical suspicion or known history of prostate cancer. Lesions were scored by Prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) classification schema by experienced genitourinary radiologists. Biopsy was performed by an oncology-trained urologist (PS) performing a high volume of fusion biopsies. 5 cores were taken from each lesion, each corresponding to a predetermined location (central, medial, lateral, apex, and base of the lesion). Cancer detection rates (CDR) were calculated on a per lesion basis from biopsy histology. Results: 154 prostate lesions were identified and biopsied with an average volume of 1.31 mL. Detection of clinically significant cancer (G>3+4) did not differ significantly among the 5 locations (Table 1). The central core detected slightly more G≥3+4 cancers than the apex core. No concordance of pathology grade was found between the central core and location of the peripheral core (medial, lateral, apex, or base). In 32% (50/154) of lesions, the peripheral cores had a higher Gleason score than the central core. Biopsy of only the central core missed 40% (21/52) of G≥3+4 cancers and 17% (4/24) of G>3+4 cancers. Lesions with higher PIRADs score were more likely to detect cancer in both the central and peripheral cores, but lesion volume was not a significant predictor. Conclusions: Location of biopsy cores within mpMRI-identified prostate lesions has little correlation with detection of clinically significant cancer. However, targeted biopsy of only the center of a lesion can miss 17% of Gleason >3+4 cancers. [Table: see text]

Abstract:

International Institute of Tropical Agriculture maintains 2544 cassava accessions (Manihot esculenta Crantz) from 28 countries in its field bank. Being vegetatively propagated, this poses challenges in maintenance in terms of cost as well as in labour requirements. A core collection representing the range of phenotypic diversity present in the entire collection would enhance the conservation aspects and increase the potential for its exploitation in crop improvement programmes. The present study aimed to establish a core collection using 40 agro-morphological traits evaluated at two locations using a different number of accessions in each location. To meet the challenges generated by the types of variables and include maximum diversity in the core collection, a sequential strategy based on five major concepts was used: hierarchical multiple factor analysis allowing the mixture of variables of different kinds; three-way analysis that included the effect of genotype × environment interaction in the clustering process; linear discriminant function to assign all those individuals who were included in one location but not in the other to the groups that were generated from the common number of accessions evaluated in both locations; and D-allocation method to select samples from each cluster. The representativeness of the core subset to the entire collection was further estimated by comparing means and variances, range, and distances between accessions. The established cassava core collection consisted of 428 accessions that conserved 15% higher phenotypic diversity with no redundancies. The phenotypic diversity represented in this core collection will be a guide to users of cassava germplasm in their crop improvement programmes.

Abstract:

At present, the detection of urban community structures is mainly based on existing administrative divisions, and is performed using qualitative methods. The lack of quantitative methods makes it difficult to judge the rationality of urban community divisions. In this study, we used complex network association mining methods to detect a city community structure by using the Origin-Destinations (OD) at traffic analysis zone (TAZ) level, and successively assigned all the TAZs into different communities. Based on the community results, we calculated the community core degree of each TAZ within every community, and then calculated the Traffic Core Degree and Location Core Degree indicators of the community based on OD passenger flow and spatial location relationship between communities. Finally, we analyzed the correlation among three indicators to ensure the rationality of the community structure. We used the city of Zhengzhou in 2016 as an example case study. For Zhengzhou, we detected a total of six communities. We found a relatively low correlation between Traffic Core Degree and Location Core Degree. Within each group, the correlation between community core degree and Traffic Core Degree was higher than that between community core degree and Location Core Degree, indicating that the urban community structure is more reasonably based on traffic characteristics. The development of a quantitative approach for determining reasonable city community structures has important implications for transportation planning and industrial layout.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the impact of information systems providing real-time or near real-time knowledge of location, described as location-aware systems. The study utilizes a qualitative, interview-based approach to guide our understanding of the benefits associated with the increased information transparency made available with location-aware information systems. The goal of this study is to examine the benefits of location-aware information systems on managing mobile assets in the hospital context. The Swanson’s tri-core model of innovation is used as the theoretical framework. The tri-core model provides a framework for understanding the role innovations play in administrative, technical and operational effectiveness. This distinction is important for the regulatory intensive environment of hospitals.

Abstract:

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) performed by lymphatic massage, in the postoperative period after abdominoplasty with core liposuction, may promote a faster resolution of edema. The purpose of this study was to determine the benefits of MLD by assessing the amount of edema at 6 and 8 weeks after abdominoplasty with core liposuction in patients who did or did not receive MLD for 3 weeks. The study used a prospective, comparative design. A total of 20 women aged 30 to 60 years, who underwent an abdominoplasty and core liposuction, were recruited from 2 clinics. Participants were divided into 2 equal groups based on clinic location. All participants wore a standard compression garment for 8 weeks after surgery. Starting at 6 weeks after surgery, the treatment group was treated by a certified lymphedema specialist twice a week for 3 weeks (6 visits). At 6 and 8 weeks after surgery, the waist circumferences of all participants were measured in 3 locations: at the navel, 3 cm above the navel, and 3 cm below the nave. Data from the 2 groups were compared to determine the change in edema. The mean age of participants was 41.6 years (range = 32-59 years) in the treatment group and 40.8 years (range = 30-59 years) in the control group. The mean (SD) reduction in edema between weeks 6 and 8 in the treatment group was 9.8 cm; 1 participant lost 18.2 cm during that period. The mean (SD) reduction in edema between weeks 6 and 8 in the control group was 6.6 cm; a few participants lost 12.0 cm during that period. No differences in mean reductions were found between groups ( P = .11). No differences were found between groups based on clinic location ( P = .84). Our results suggested that receiving MLD after abdominoplasty and core liposuction reduced edema more than the standard compressive garments, but not by a statistically significant amount. Furthermore, differences in the study groups were not dependent on clinic location.

Abstract:

Abstract. Measurements of the slope current at two locations north-west of Ireland have been made between April and December 1994, 40 m above the seabed in a water depth of 660 m. A persistent poleward along-slope current was observed at both locations, with measured means of 10 and 21cms–1 respectively. A CTD transect across the slope near one mooring indicated the presence of a light, warm, saline core of water at the shelf edge. Peak currents were O(50)cms–1, with strongest mean flow at the location with steeper slope. Variability at sub-tidal periods, principally 2–5 and 11–12 days, was apparent. The shorter-period variability was well correlated with coastal sea-level variations measured at a land point near to one of the moorings. The variability in the slope current at this period appeared to be a result of the warm current core movement up/down slope, probably as a result of interaction with higher-mode shelf waves. Some suggestion of a bottom-trapped diurnal wave was also found at one location.

Abstract:

he basic ideas about the process of introducing cores into protective barriers and the most common core patterns and their location in conventional and sub-caliber small arms bullets are discussed. The materials used for manufacture of cores are analyzed. It is concluded that for mass bullets of increased armor penetration the most rational choice can be considered the use of high-carbon low-alloy steels of a new generation with a natural composite structure and hardness of up to 70 HRC. For specialized armor-piercing bullets, cores made from promising economically-alloyed high-speed steels characterized by a high complex of «hardness—bending strength» are better alternative than ones made of hard alloys or tungsten alloys.

Abstract:

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the relationship of software company culture and core values and project management methodologies on the demand for corporate real estate (CRE), impacting decisions regarding location, square footage, office design and amenities. Design/methodology/approach A researcher-administered survey was designed with the assistance of a purposive sample of brokers, architects and interior designers to elicit responses from the CRE officers in software companies at four stages of growth, from small, entrepreneurial startups to large, publicly traded software companies, located in the same metropolitan area of the USA. Quantitative responses are summarized with traditional statistics and data visualizations. Linguistic analysis, including sentiment analysis and keyword relevance, was performed on the unstructured, English text responses. Findings Differences exist in the office layouts, amenities and locations across the four software company size categories studied. Linguistic analysis of company descriptions of office design, culture and core values, and the relationship between the two, provide another way for brokers, investors and other stakeholders to understand company perspectives and communication idioms related to CRE needs. The research was unable to show any differences in any dependent variable based on software project management methodologies due to sampling limitations. Research limitations/implications This study is limited by the sample size of the participating software companies based on access to company leadership. Results are not generalizable. Practical implications Architects, investors, brokers and lenders may find value in using this study’s approach to better understand the needs of software technology clients. Specifically, stakeholders may find value in examining the linkage from software company size, culture and core values to CRE office layout, amenities and location. Originality/value The qualitative findings suggest that software company culture and core values and company size influence the design of the CRE demanded by software companies. Multivariate data visualization was designed to communicate longitudinal CRE data. Linguistic analysis was used to extract the emotional content and relevance scores from company descriptions of office design, company culture and core values and the reported effect of culture and core values on office design. Findings may be beneficial for stakeholders involved in the design, location and future CRE investments, and they suggest the need for future research on a larger sample.

Abstract:

We present 52 new geographic location records for the peracarid crustacean Antromysis cenotensis Creaser, 1936, endemic in cenotes of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. This species is currently considered threatened and, therefore, is protected by Mexican law. These results arise from several expeditions carried out between 2017 and 2020 in 75 locations within the cenote-ring, the interior, and coastal plains of the peninsula. A comprehensive literature review provided 84 geographic location records since the species was described in 1936. A map with 136 geographic location records that better describe the current species distribution is also included. With this information, plus some notes on the ecology of the species, a comprehensive literature and data review, and a brief analysis regarding the possible factors associated with the confirmed absence of the species in some locations in the state of Yucatan, we provide a brief and condensed summary of the actual knowledge on this particular species. The data in Darwin Core format can be retrieved in Zenodo.

Abstract:

Delineating the depth and extent of the watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thumb.) Matsum. & Nak.] root zone assists with proper irrigation management and minimizes nutrient leaching. The objective of this 3-year field study was to measure root distribution and root length density of watermelon (cv. Wrigley) grafted on two different rootstocks (Lagenaria siceraria cv. ‘FR Strong’ and Cucurbita moschata × Cucurbita maxima cv. Chilsung Shintoza) and grown under three soil moisture treatments. Irrigation treatments tested were: no irrigation (NI), briefly irrigated for fertigation and early-season plant establishment; minimally irrigated (MI), irrigated when soil moisture in top 0.30 m of soil fell below 50% available water capacity (AWC); well irrigated (WI), irrigated when soil moisture in top 0.30 m of soil fell below 15% (AWC). Root length density (RLD) was measured from 75-cm-deep soil cores at two locations three times per growing season and a third location at the end of the season. Cores 1 and 2 sample locations were 15 cm to the side of each plant: Core 1 on the same side as the drip tape and Core 2 on the opposite side. At the end of the season, Core 3 was taken 15 cm outside of the bed in bare ground. RLD was significantly greater in the 0- to 30-cm soil depth and dropped dramatically below 30 cm; it was not significantly affected by irrigation treatment or rootstock. Core 1, next to the drip tape, had greater RLD than Core 2, 30 cm from drip tape, but only at the later sampling dates. Roots were found in Core 3 at all depths, but the RLD was significantly less than that measured in Cores 1 and 2. These findings suggest that the effective root zone depth for watermelon is 0 to 30 cm and that the particular scion/rootstock combinations tested in this study do not differ in root system size or location.

Abstract:

AbstractWe discuss the cross-correlation analysis of single pulses in the emission of PSR 0329+54 observed simultaneously at 102.5 and 1700 MHz. We have found that the observed correlations between the two frequencies are consistent with the model in which the subpulses in single pulses correspond to plasma excitations flowing from the neutron-star surface along dipolar magnetic field lines. The peaks of strongly correlated subpulses at the two frequencies correspond to the same field line at two different emission radii. We have found that the core (central) and the conal (outer) components of the pulse profile of PSR 0329+54 originate at the same distance from the neutron star.

Abstract:

Abstract. Earthfill dams are man-made geostructures which may be especially damaged by seismic loadings, because the soil skeleton they are made of suffers remarkable modifications in its mechanical properties, as well as changes of pore water pressure and flow of this water inside their pores, when subjected to vibrations. The most extreme situation is the dam failure due to soil liquefaction. Coupled finite element numerical codes are a useful tool to assess the safety of these dams. In this paper the application of a fully coupled numerical model, previously developed and validated by the authors, to a set of theoretical cross sections of earthfill dams with impervious core, is presented. All these dams are same height and have the same volume of impervious material at the core. The influence of the core location inside the dam on its response against seismic loading is numerically explored. The dams are designed as strictly stable under static loads. As a result of this research, a design recommendation on the location of the impervious core is obtained for this type of earth dams, on the basis of the criteria of minor liquefaction risk, minor soil degradation during the earthquake and minor crest settlement.

AbstractObjectivesGoal concordant or congruent care involves having expressed wishes upheld. Yet, the preferred location for end-of-life care may be unaddressed. Caregiver–patient congruence between preferred and actual locations of care may influence the quality of life in bereavement. The study aimed to explore how the congruence between caregiver–patient preferred and actual locations of death influenced well-being in bereavement.MethodsMixed methods were employed. In-depth in-person interviews were conducted with 108 bereaved caregivers of a hospice patient about 4 months after the death. An interview guide was used to collect quantitative and qualitative data: demographics, decision-making, Core Bereavement Items (CBI), Health Related Quality of Life, and perspectives on the end-of-life experiences. Data were analyzed with a convergent mixed methods one-phase process.ResultsPatient preference–actual location congruence occurred for 53%; caregiver preference–actual location congruence occurred for 74%; caregiver–patient preference and location of death occurred for 48%. Participants who reported some type of incongruence demonstrated higher levels of distress, including more days of being physically and emotionally unwell and more intense bereavement symptoms. The Acute Separation subscale and CBI total scores demonstrated significant differences for participants who experienced incongruence compared with those who did not. Preference location congruence themes emerged: (1) caregiver–patient location congruence, (2) caregiver–patient location incongruence, and (3) location informed bereavement.ConclusionsCongruence between a dying person's preferred and actual locations at death has been considered good care. There has been little focus on the reciprocity between caregiver–patient wishes. Discussing preferences about the place of end-stage care may not make location congruence possible, but it can foster shared understanding and support for caregivers’ sense of coherence and well-being in bereavement.

Abstract:

The effects of adding an extra layer within a sandwich panel and two different core types in top and bottom cores on low velocity impact loadings are studied experimentally in this paper. The panel includes polymer composite laminated sheets for faces and the internal laminated sheet called extra layer sheet, and two types of crushable foams are selected as the core material. Low velocity impact tests were carried out by drop hammer testing machine to the clamped multilayer sandwich panels with expanded polypropylene (EPP) and polyurethane rigid (PUR) in the top and bottom cores. Local displacement of the top core, contact force and deflection of the sandwich panel were obtained for different locations of the internal sheet; meanwhile the EPP and PUR were used in the top and bottom cores alternatively. It was found that the core material type has made significant role in improving the sandwich panel’s behavior compared with the effect of extra layer location.

Abstract:

Objective: Ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy is a real-time, inexpensive method with higher patient comfort. The aim of this study was to evaluate ultrasonography findings of microcalcifications without accompanying mass and also to investigate the accuracy of ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy results. Materials and Methods: The study included a total of 54 patients, with microcalcifications observed on mammography and no accompanying mass, who underwent ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy and surgical excision. Core needle biopsy specimen x-rays were obtained from 23 patients. In 11 patients, the location of microcalcification was confirmed by mammography following the administration of contrast agent under ultrasonography guidance. Ultrasonography findings of microcalcifications were identified. The results of ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy were compared with the excisional pathology results. Results: The microcalcifications without accompanying mass were presented with punctate echogenous foci, hypoechoic area, small distortion, ductal abnormality or fibrocystic changes on ultrasonography. Hypoechoic area and distortion were seen more in malignant lesions, and fibrocystic changes and ductal abnormalities in benign lesions but the difference was not statistically significant. The agreement between ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy and the excisional pathology results was high (Kappa = 0.781). When a specimen x-ray was obtained or core needle biopsy was performed after confirming the location of the microcalcifications with the use of contrast agent, Kappa values were even higher (0.87 and 1, respectively). Conclusions: Microcalcifications can be seen with targeted ultrasonography imaging and ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy has high accuracy. Taking a specimen x-ray, or biopsy performed after identifying of the location of microcalcifications with a trace amount of contrast agent, can increase the accuracy of ultrasonography guided core needle biopsy.
