Abstract:
Nowadays, there are several grades of sheet metal used in the automotive industry. Highstrength steel sheets, particularly, have been widely used in order to reduce the weight of vehicles,which is strongly related to their fuel consumption rate. However, it is generally known that thestrength of the sheets, which is relatively higher than that of the conventional carbon steel sheets,results in their low formability. In this work, the limiting drawing ratio and forming behavior of sheetmetal that is conventionally used for automobile parts were evaluated by test using cylindrical cupwith hole. The feasibility to use limiting cup height for comparing formability of sheet metal was alsoincluded in the investigation. The sheet materials used in the experiments are aluminium, cold rolledsteel, high strength steel and advanced high strength steel. The process parameters for this study weredie corner radius and blank holder force. Workpiece materials were prepared with a circular shapeand with a diameter of 80 millimetres. In the center of the circular workpiece, a 12-millimetrediameter hole was drilled to observe the formability of each of the materials. The advantage of usingan initial blank with a hole in the center by the cylindrical cup drawing test is that the cup does notfail from changes of the thickness of material near the punch radius at the bottom of the cup. Thelimiting cup height of the investigated materials were evaluated by test using the cylindrical cup withhole. The results show that the limiting cup height values have a relationship to the limiting drawingratio values of the investigated materials. Testing using cylindrical cup with hole by evaluating thelimiting cup height value is feasible for comparing the formability of sheet metals.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study investigated the effects of current unsatisfactory performance (CUP) on improvement expectancy (IE) and commitment to improvement (CTI). 118 high school students were randomly assigned to consider either current satisfactory performance (CSP) or CUP. In addition, students within each group were randomly assigned to one of two evaluative approaches: (1) dichotomous present-focused evaluation (“Are you succeeding in this area? Or not?”), or (2) historical success scaling (“What is the highest level of success that you have reached in this area?”). It was hypothesised that (relative to CSP) CUP has a negative effect on improvement expectancy (IE). This hypothesis was supported. In addition, the data were consistent with an inconsistent mediation hypothesis according to which CUP has a positive direct effect on CTI but a negative indirect effect through reduced IE. The indirect effect of CUP on CTI was expected to be less negative amongst students engaging in historical success scaling than amongst students engaging in dichotomous present-focused evaluation. Although this was indeed the case, a test of moderated mediation indicated that the conditional indirect effects did not differ statistically. The study helps to illuminate the conflicting effects of CUP on CTI. Findings also have important implications for cognitive-behavioural and solution-focused approaches, both of which champion “scaling.”

Abstract:
The liquid limit of soils can be measured using either the cup apparatus developed by Casagrande or by the fall-cone method, which is now the standard in much of Europe. This paper will demonstrate, based on a Newmarkian sliding block analysis of the Casagrande percussion test, that these two methods measure different mechanical properties of the soil; the cup test being a measure of specific strength, i.e., strength divided by density, whereas the fall cone is a direct measure of strength. Sources of error in the operation of the percussion test are quantified and a modification to the fall-cone test is proposed to standardize results between the two test methods.

Abstract:
Part production by deep drawing technology brings important economic advantages. Cupping test is used to determine material suitability for deep drawing. The main principle of the test is redrawing of cylinder metal test piece to the cup. The result of the test is calculation of limiting drawing ratio (LDR) whichstates the ratio betweenthe largest blank diameter and final cup diameter. Many cupping tests for various materials were performedin order to determine maximal value of LDRthatwould still allow deep drawing without failure of material integrity. Limiting drawing ratio (LDR)converges to Euler’s number (e) for high test piece depth and final cup diameter ratio values. Theoretical analysis of the cupping on drawing die with tractrix curve shows that maximal value of LDR may achieve value LDR>e. This is possible at lower values of test piece depth to final cup diameter ratio.Evaluated values of LDR published in reference literature do not include description ofstrict test conditions. Coefficient of friction has determining influence on LDR value. The theory of limiting drawing ratio(LDR)evaluation described in this paper regards the influence of coefficient of friction between drawing die and drawing cup.

Abstract:
The sheet metal forming process basically involves the shaping of sheet metal of various thickness and material properties into the desired contours. This metal forming process has been extensively used by the automotive industry to manufacture both car panels and parts. Over the years numerous investigations have been conducted on various aspects of the manufacturing process with varied success. In recent years the requirements on the sheet metal forming industry have headed towards improved stability in the forming process while lowering environmental burdens. Therefore the overall aim of this research was to identify a technique for developing lubricant formulations that are insensitive to the sheet metal forming process. Due to the expense of running experiments on production presses and to improve time efficiency of the process the evaluation procedure was required to be performed in a laboratory. Preliminary investigations in the friction/lubricant system identified several laboratory tests capable of measuring lubricant performance and their interaction with process variables. However, little was found on the correlation between laboratory tests and production performance of lubricants. Therefore the focus of the research switched to identifying links between the performance of lubricants in a production environment and laboratory tests. To reduce the influence of external parameters all significant process variables were identified and included in the correlation study to ensure that lubricant formulations could be desensitised to all significant variables. The significant process variables were found to be sensitive to die position, for instance: contact pressure, blank coating of the strips and surface roughness of the dies were found significant for the flat areas of the die while no variables affected friction when polished drawbeads were used. The next phase was to identify the interaction between the significant variables and the main lubricant ingredient groups. Only the fatty material ingredient group (responsible for the formation of boundary lubricant regimes) was found to significantly influence friction with no interaction between the ingredient groups. The influence of varying this ingredient group was then investigated in a production part and compared to laboratory results. The correlation between production performance and laboratory tests was found to be test dependant. With both the Flat Face Friction test and the Drawbead Simulator unaffected by changes in the lubricant formulation, while the Flat Bottom Cup test showing similar results as the production trial. It is believed that the lack of correlation between the friction tests and the production performance of the lubricant is due to the absence of bulk plastic deformation of the strip. For this reason the Ohio State University (OSU) friction test was incorporated in the lubricant evaluation procedure along with a Flat Bottom Cup test. Finally, it is strongly believed that if the lubricant evaluation procedure highlighted in this research is followed then lubricant formulations can be developed confidently in the laboratory.

Abstract:
This dissertation interrogates obscured Indigenous identities by way of an original dramatic script that employs story-telling as an inherent cultural device that sustains a sense of peoplehood. In an art-based inquiry, I use Gerald Vizenor's notion of "postindian" to respond to the ways in which postindian identities establish "survivance"; that is, how the presence, resistance and endurance of Indigenous lives challenge simulations. Native histories in the shadow of dominance can be reimagined through cultural acts of resilience that overcome internalized oppressions or what Augusto Boal referred to as the "cop in the head". Reproductions of the image of oppressor are too often constructed in the image of self that prevents authentic being. The script demonstrates the criticality of authoring a counter-narrative that celebrates Indigenous history remembered and survived. Through Indigenous values of relationality and responsibility, it offers an unfinished third act of the play. The final act confers agency upon a future community audience to engage in an interactive style of participation known as Theater of the Oppressed to explore various resolutions.

Abstract:

During the last few years, Ericsson has developed an emulator for the telephone system called CPP (Connectivity Packet Platform) with TietoEnator as a subcontractor. The emulator is called CPPemu and emulates the hardware used in the network nodes in CPP. This means that the same software that may be run on a node in a CPP network may be run on the emulated hardware in the emulator. TietoEnator would like to examine whether the emulator may be used for testing software instead of running tests using physical hardware. For this experiment, a particular event will be tested in the CPP emulator.

A fail-over procedure, which works in a physical CPP node, will be verified to work in the CPP emulator. A fail-over may be defined as

The failure and automatic replacement of part of a system such that the user does not notice the failure and is not affected by it. The part which has failed is replaced by a backup part.

This experiment consisted of three majors steps, namely (i) configuring the emulator, (ii) creating a network by setting up a redundant network (one main link and one backup link) between two emulated nodes and finally (iii) testing the fail-over procedure. The fail-over was tested by generating and sending traffic through the network, triggering the fail-over by ejecting the board which is currently sending and receiving traffic and inspecting the log files to evaluate if the fail-over works as intended. The results of the experiment indicated that the system performed as expected.

Abstract:
In practice, the radiation efficiency of antennas is often measured by the anechoic chambers. For this method, it takes plenty time and cost. In order to bring down the measurement costs, another alternative method was proposed and published by H.A. Wheeler in 1959. The Wheeler Cap method can measure the radiation efficiency of the antenna quickly and easily during the design and development stage. It has the many benefits, such as simple construction, easy and fast to implement, lower cost and accurate enough compared to other methods. Moreover, it is a reliable and extensively used method for measuring the antenna’s radiation efficiency. The basic concept about Wheeler’s method is to use the "radiansphere" which is the boundary between the near field and the far field of any small antenna to measure the radiation efficiency of antenna under test. The radiation efficiency is obtained by performing measurement in two steps i.e. measuring the antenna under test (AUT) without and with conducting radiation metal shield. The main objective of this thesis work is to design and construct a Wheeler cap test set-up. This thesis is performed to study a modified Wheeler cap method which is based on constant power loss principle and according to this principle the loss resistance of AUT remains constant whether the Wheeler cap is placed or removed, it means the AUT has zero or finite radiation resistance. Thus, the radiation efficiency can be measured using the return loss magnitude with or without Wheeler cap. The equivalent RLC circuits of AUT in the free space and with a Wheeler cap have been theoretically reviewed and analyzed. At the same time, the mathematical expressions of radiation efficiency were presented in terms of return loss using equivalent RLC circuits. In this thesis, four types of antenna have been selected to find their radiation efficiency by the Wheeler cap method using HFSS software. To compare the simulation and measurement results of radiation efficiency, lossless wire monopole antenna and lossy loop antenna are simulated, fabricated and measured. It is found that the measurement results correlates with the simulation results.

Abstract:
Machine learning and artificial intelligence have become popular buzz words in the science community. The advancements in both methodology and computing capability have paved the way for major improvements in multiple fields, leading to an increased interest in machine learning. Most importantly, many companies have also shown interest in applying machine learning in real life situations. Automated testing environments is one area where there is both data and application for machine learning available. For example, software and hardware capacity testing can produce large amounts of result data that can become unfeasible to analyze manually. Introducing machine learning into these environments can both help find interesting insights and automate the monitoring of results. This thesis explores introducing machine learning into the capacity testing environment of a major telecommunications company. The work involved exploration of available testing data and various machine learning algorithms. Clustering, anomaly detection and regression with multiple methods were experimented with using different data sets. Ultimately regression using random forests to estimate base station CPU loads based on LTE L2 test parameters was found to produce most promising results. Two random forest models were built and optimized with hyperparameter tuning and trained and validated with real test result data. The validation showed that the models were valid and could explain 99% of the variation in CPU loads. The most important features affecting CPU loads were also identified. The predictive models thus created are utilized in an automatic monitoring tool that reports possibly anomalous test results based on measured CPU loads. Additionally, this work acts as a groundwork for further machine learning efforts in the target environment and highlights the need for a better data plan in the company for better utilization of data science methods
Koneoppimisesta ja tekoälystä on tullut polttavia puheenaiheita tiedeyhteisön keskuudessa. Sekä menetelmien että tietotekniikan kehitys ovat mahdollistaneet merkittävät edistysaskeleet monella aihealueella. Tämä on johtanut kiinnostuksen merkittävään kasvuun koneoppimista kohtaan. Ehkä kaikkein huomattavinta on yhtiöiden kasvava kiinnostus soveltaa koneoppimista käytännön käyttötarkoituksiin. Automaattiset testiympäristöt ovat eräs alue joka tarjoaa sekä käyttökohteen että dataa koneoppimiselle. Esimerkiksi ohjelmistojen ja laitteistojen kapasiteettitestaus tuottaa usein suuret määrät dataa, jota voi olla epäkäytännöllistä käsitellä manuaalisesti. Koneoppimisen avulla voidaan sekä löytää mielenkiintoisia yksityiskohtia datasta, että automatisoida testitulosten analysointia. Tämä työ keskittyy koneoppimisen käyttöön suuren telekommunikaatioyhtiön kapasiteettitestausympäristössä. Työn suurena osana oli käytössä olevan datan sekä olemassa olevien koneoppimismetodien tutkimus. Tähän kuului klusteroinnin, poikkeavuuksien tunnistamisen ja regression kokeilua erilaisiin datakokonaisuuksiin erilaisin menetelmin. Tutkinnan tuloksena lupaavimmaksi lähestymistavaksi valikoitui regressio-analyysi random forest menetelmällä. Analyysin kohteena oli tukiasemien CPU-kuorman arvioiminen LTE L2 testiparametreista. Tutkimusta varten sovitettiin kaksi random forest mallia. Mallit optimoitiin hyperparametrien virityksellä ja opetettiin todellisella testitulosdatalla. Mallit myös validoitiin erillisellä joukolla oikeita testituloksia. Validointi osoitti mallien mallintavan CPU-kuorman ja parametrien suhdetta hyvin ja kykenevän selittämään 99% variaatiosta CPU-kuormassa. Lisäksi eniten CPU-kuormaan vaikuttavat tekijät tunnistettiin. Opetuksen ja optimoinnin tuloksena syntyneet mallit ovat perustana monitorointityökalulle, jonka tehtävänä on raportoida mahdollisesti ongelmallisista testituloksista CPU-kuorman perusteella. Lisäksi, tämä työ toimii perustana jatkuvalle koneoppimisen hyödyntämiselle kohdeympäristössä sekä osoittaa, että yhtiö tarvitsee paremman suunnitelman datan tehokkaalle käsittelylle

Bruno Trentin, in occasione della laurea honoris causa conferitagli dall’ateneo in cui suo padre era stato un maestro prima che il fascismo lo costringesse all’esilio, tenne una lectio magistralis tesa e commossa. Dieci anni dopo, nello stesso luogo, studiosi di discipline e generazioni diverse rileggono quel testo e lo mettono in relazione con le proprie ricerche. Lavoro e conoscenza funziona come un prisma, da cui esce una gamma di colori ampia e variegata, che finisce per rivelare la complessa stratificazione di quella lezione che, infatti, condensa il pensiero e le speranze di uno degli intellettuali-politici più affascinanti del secondo ’900.

La composizione di azioni con soggetti sacri e profani e il riutilizzo di fabulae antiche, declinate secondo il principio dell’utilità morale dei temi trattati, caratterizza la ricerca letteraria di Girolamo Bartolommei che si cimentò nelle forme della scrittura lirica, epica, drammaturgica e musicale, richiamando ‘i benigni lettori’ delle sue opere alla funzione etica e sociale della poesia. La sua Didascalia cioè dottrina comica (stampata a Firenze nel 1658 e ristampata nel 1661), di cui presentiamo l’edizione critica, si rende interessante per la peculiarità della proposta teorica, riconducibile alle ragioni del teatro d’accademia, tesa a dimostrare ai giovani letterati, procedendo da questioni di poetica generale fino agli ‘abbozzi di commedie di mezzo’ da lui stesso composti, come solo l’ ‘onestà’ e il decoro di una ‘ben ordinata commedia’ potessero risollevare le sorti dell’arte comica dal degrado in cui era caduta.

Abstract:
I Ricordi di Giovanni di Pagolo Morelli, da tempo noti agli storici, sono qui pubblicati per la prima volta in versione integrale e linguisticamente fedele al testo originale del manoscritto. A questa nuova edizione critica si accompagna un lungo saggio introduttivo sull’autore, sugli intenti della sua opera e sugli esiti che essa ebbe presso gli eredi cui era destinata. I 74 anni vissuti da Giovanni Morelli dagli anni ’70 del Trecento alla metà degli anni ’40 del secolo successivo attraversano un arco temporale decisivo per la storia fiorentina, segnato da una forte mobilità sociale di cui i Morelli, famiglia dalle origini modeste, furono protagonisti. La lettura dei Ricordi, unita all’analisi della corposa documentazione superstite a carico dell’autore e della sua casa, aiutano a comprendere la forte spinta all’ascesa sociale che animò il Morelli e le ragioni dell’affermazione dei suoi discendenti nel panorama delle famiglie più in vista del tardo Quattrocento a Firenze.

Abstract:
In a gas turbine engine combustor, combustion performance is tied to the spatial distribution of the fuel injected into the dome. Swirl cup, as an air blast atomizer, is widely used to provide a uniform presentation of fuel droplets to the combustor dome. In this paper, two swirl cups with different venturi angle have been studied: case 1 (with narrow venturi angle) and case 2 (with wide venturi angle). Kerosene is injected to the test domain through a simplex nozzle. The spatial distribution of droplet characteristics produced by the two swirl cups were measured using dual-phase Doppler anemometry (PDA). A single cup combustor has been built in order to characterize the swirl cups’ ignition phenomena. Spark ignition test has been performed for ground condition, two swirl cups’ lean ignition limits are obtained, and ignition sequences have been recorded by a high-speed video camera. Comparing the two swirl cups’ small droplets velocity, case 1 swirl cup produces a different velocity profile from typical swirl cup. The air stream outflowing from case 1 swirl cup just ran into the side wall. The droplet size around the spark plug of case 2 is smaller than case 1. Ignition test results show that case 2 swirl cup’s lean ignition limit is wider than case 1’s. Record of the ignition process deepened the understanding of spark ignition of the swirl diffusion flame. It takes some time for the kernel to anchor in swirl cup. The results demonstrate that swirl cup’s venturi shape strongly influence the spray structure. Thereby affect the combustor ignition performance.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper presents an in-depth experimental and numerical investigation of a split-ring test, which provides a simple yet effective benchmark for correlating forming and springback predictive capabilities with experimental measurements. The experimental procedure consists of deep drawing a circular 6111-T4 aluminum alloy into a cylindrical cup of 55mm depth, cross-cutting 9 rings of 5mm each from the cup, splitting the rings and measuring their opening displacement, i.e. the springback amount. Experimental data obtained included punch force trajectories, drawn cup profile, thickness distribution after forming, and the ring openings after splitting. A numerical model is built to analyze the process, and both transversely-isotropic and fully-orthotropic yield criteria are investigated. Simulation results are validated against experimental data. A detailed numerical analysis is also conducted for stress distributions in each ring after each step and their relationship to springback amount. Stress and strain signatures suggested that the test is well suited for validating material models such as anisotropic yield surface models and hardening models.

In ASME 8th Biennial Conference on Engineering Systems Design and Analysis. ASMEDC, 2006. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/esda2006-95512.

Full text
Abstract:
More than one million hip joint replacements are performed each year in the world. However, the implants do not last forever due to material limitations, even though the operation is successful. The most common material combination used today is a CoCr head articulating against an UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) acetabular cup. Several investigations have shown that the metal head is roughened inside the body and thus accelerating wear of the polymer cup. The sterilization method is also known to have effect on the wear properties. In vitro wear tests are however usually performed with as new implants. This investigation aimed at study the impact of head surface roughness on wear of both sterilized and non-sterilized acetabular cups. A total of nine acetabular cup and head pairs were wear tested in a hip joint simulator for 2Million cycles (Mc) with bovine calf serum as lubricant. Wear was determined by weighing of all cups. The heads were of CoCrMo and the average initial head surface roughness was 15nm (Ra), measured with a white light interference profilometer. The roughening was produced with a SiC paper producing circular multidirectional wear tracks to a surface roughness of about 400nm (Ra). The cups were of UHMWPE and the sterilized cups were 3Mrad gamma-radiated in nitrogen. The surface roughness after wear test was unchanged for the roughened heads, while the initially smooth heads were slightly roughened. Preliminary results show that the rough heads increase the wear of the cups 2-fold. The γ-irradiation affected both wear- and soak rate.

Full text
Abstract:
The characteristics of the flow fields in a model combustor’s primary zone, which is confined by different swirl cups and the flame tube with primary holes and cooling air films, is experimentally investigated by a Particle Dynamic Analyzer (PDA). The spray of RP-3 jet fuel from the atomizer is used as the trace particles for laser detection. The inlet air pressure and temperature are 110 KPa and 300 K, respectively. The test sections start from 10 mm and end at 50 mm downstream the swirl cup, ensuring that the primary holes are located within the test range. The results show that the swirl cup with double radial swirlers causes a greater flow expansion than that with double axial swirlers, thus results in a greater recirculation zone. By comparison with the previously reported data for the flow field after a pure swirl cup, it can be concluded that the flow field, especially the recirculation zone, in the primary zone with primary hole jets, is no longer axisymmetrical, as it was after a pure swirl cup. The presence of primary hole air flows remarkably squeezes the recirculation zone, especially for double radial swirlers; thus resulting in a elliptic-like cross section, with the longer axis greater than the shorter one up to 2.3 times, and causing the diminish of the corner recirculation zone. The recirculation zone is always ended at the primary holes, resulting in a much shorter length of the recirculation zone, which is only about 1.3 times of the exit diameter of the swirl cup, instead of 2.5 times for the pure swirl cup structure without the primary holes.

Full text
Abstract:
A lubricant plays a very important role in forging. It can reduce the forging load and make for smooth knockout. The tribo-simulator tests that have often been used as standard evaluation methods for metal forming lubricants includes the ring compression test and spike forging test. However, the forging of components such as flange bolt and constant velocity joint is more severe than a spike forging test or ring compression test. Thus, the development of an evaluation method for lubricants for use in more severe conditions is much awaited. We have developed a new evaluation tribometer using backward extrusion with a taper punch. The new device is called a “Taper Cup Tribometer.” The taper cup test can evaluate lubricity under large deformation conditions. In this test, the surface expansion ratio can be controlled by changing the punch stroke. The surface expansion ratio of the new taper cup tribometer is around 15 to 50, as calculated by fine element analysis. The results of lubricant evaluation in cold forging of carbon steel are as follows. Zinc phosphate has a lower forging load than other lubricants, making it clear that it is a superior lubricant. Oil, on the other hand, has a high forging load and poor lubrication characteristics. The taper cup Tribometer can evaluate the friction characteristics of lubricants. Furthermore, MoS2 shows a higher forging load than zinc phosphate in the region of higher surface area expansion ratio around 12. The forging load of oil is higher than zinc phosphate in the region of higher surface area expansion ratio around 4. In this way, the new taper cup tribometer can recognize the forging limit for the lubricant under the forging load.

Abstract:
A three dimensional non-linear vibration model of tapered roller bearings was developed based on an in-house dynamic bearing model (DBM), which simulates the motion of bearing components and their interactions using Hertzian contact, traction, and hydrodynamic/ elastohydrodynamic lubrication models. The vibration model can simulate bearings with distributed and localized geometrical imperfections on their cup raceways, cone raceways, and roller bodies. This paper focuses on the influence of localized cup raceway imperfections on bearing vibration. Three levels of localized defects were intentionally created on cup raceways and quantified using a surface profile gauge. The quantified defects on actual test bearings were used as inputs to the vibration model. The corresponding test bearings were evaluated with a high-precision bearing vibration test machine. Two different bearing designs were used in the study. The simulation and test data were analyzed and compared, and it was found that the simulation results agreed well with the test data.

Full text
Abstract:
A fuzzy inference system with an associated database was developed in order to determine the forming conditions required to obtain the objective height of a drawn cup using magnesium alloy sheet. The results from both experimental and finite element analyses (FEA) have been used for constructing the database which contains information on the forming conditions used and the resultant height of the drawn cup. A case study utilizing circular-cup deep-drawing was used to test the inference system, whereby experimental results for the height of the drawn cup using specific forming conditions (temperature, blank size and blank holding force) agreed with those predicted using the inference system. This confirms the validity of the inference system. Furthermore, a learning method was developed in order to improve the system using further experimental results, the FEA results and a fuzzy algorithm. The experimental analysis showed good agreement between the required objective height and the experimentally measured height of the drawn cup.

Full text
Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Precocious puberty is defined as the onset of secondary sexual characteristics before the age of 8 years in girls and 9 years in boys. It can be differentiated into central precocious puberty (CPP) and peripheral precocious puberty, and it is more common in girls than in boys. CPP may result in a decreased final adult height, an early age at menarche, and psychological and health problems in adulthood. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) GnRH stimulation test has been indispensable in the diagnosis of CPP. GnRH stimulation test is not only invasive, time-consuming and expensive, but also sometimes difficult to have patients cooperate. Nocturnal urinary LH and FSH can represent gonadotropin excretion in children with normal and early puberty. And urinary sample collection and evaluation are more convenient, more acceptable, cheaper, and noninvasive. This meta-analysis aims to assess the value of first-voided urinary luteinizing hormone (LH) and the ratio of urinary luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the diagnosis of female CPP and to compare the accuracy between urinary gonadotropins and serum GnRH-stimulated gonadotropins.

Full text
Abstract:
Mycoplasma iowae (Mi) is a pathogenic avian mycoplasma which causes mortality in turkey embryos and as such has clinical and economic significance for the turkey breeder industry. Control of Mi infection is severely hampered by lack of adequate diagnostic tests, together with resistance to most antibiotics and resilience to environment. A markedly high degree of intra-species antigenic variation also contributes to difficulties in detection and control of infection. In this project we have designed an innovative gene-based diagnostic test based on specific amplification of the 16S rRNA gene of Mi. This reaction, designed Multi-species PCR-RFLP test, also amplifies the DNA of the pathogenic avian mycoplasmas M. gallisepticum (Mg) and M. synoviae (Ms). This test detects DNA equivalent to about 300 cfu Mi or either of the other two target mycoplasmas, individually or in mixed infection. It is a quick test, applicable to a wide variety of clinical samples, such as allantoic fluid or tracheal or cloacal swab suspensions. Differential diagnosis is carried out by gel electro-phoresis of the PCR amplicon digested with selected restriction enzymes (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism). This can also be readily accomplished by using a simple Dot-Blot hybridization assay with digoxigenin-labeled oligonucleotide probes reacting specifically with unique Mi, Mg or Ms sequences in the PCR amplicon. The PCR/OLIGO test increased sensitivity by at least 10-fold with a capacity for rapid testing of large numbers of samples. Experimental infection trials were carried out to evaluate the diagnostic tools and to study pathogenesis of Mi infection. Field studies and experimental infection of embryonated eggs indicated both synergistic and competitive interaction of mycoplasma pathogens in mixed infection. The value of the PCR diagnostic tests for following the time course of egg transmission was shown. A workable serological test (Dot Immunobinding Assay) was also developed but there was no clear-cut evidence that infected turkeys develop an immune response. Typing of a wide spectrum of Mi field isolates by a variety of gene-based molecular techniques indicated a higher degree of genetic homogeneity than predicted on the basis of the phenotypic variability. All known strains of Mi were detected by the method developed. Together with an M. meleagridis-PCR test based on the same gene, the Multi-species PCR test is a highly valuable tool for diagnosis of pathogenic mycoplasmas in single or mixed infection. The further application of this rapid and specific test as a part of Mi and overall mycoplasma control programs will be dependent on developments in the turkey industry.

Abstract:
As noted in recent literature, firms can run on credit lines due to fear of future credit restrictions. We exploit the 2011 stress test supervised by the European Banking Authority (EBA) and the Spanish Central Credit Register to explore: 1) the occurrence and magnitude of these runs after the release of negative stress test results; and 2) banks’ behaviour before and after the release of this information. We find that, following the release of the results, firms drew down approximately 10 pp more available funds from lines granted by banks that had a worse performance in the stress test. Moreover, before the release date, poorer performing banks were more likely to reduce the size of credit lines, while those with more significant balances of undrawn credit lines were more likely to cut term lending.
