Abstract:
Extremely large trucks with a weight exceeding the standard require a permit before they are allowed to cross the bridges of a specific route. For the purpose of safety, an escort is often employed to maintain a distance between vehicles and to ensure that the bridge load remain below the allowed maximum. Given that the speed of these large vehicles is quite slow and that the amplitude of vibrations normally declines when the vehicle mass is large, a minor dynamic amplification of the bridge response is expected. However, some of these large trucks have a unique feature characterized by “multiple equally-spaced axles”, something that is uncommon in normal vehicle. The application of axle forces at equal intervals can dynamically excite bridges to a considerable extent, even at low speeds. These “critical” low speeds are estimated a priori from the axle spacing of the truck and the main frequency of vibration of the bridge. This paper demonstrates that when the “critical” speed is unavoidable, a relatively high dynamic allowance must be added to static calculations before granting a permit to a long heavy vehicle.

Abstract:
Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles work seamlessly within the GPS signal range, but their performance deteriorates in GPS-denied regions. This paper presents a unique collaborative computer vision-based approach for target tracking as per the image’s specific location of interest. The proposed method tracks any object without considering its properties like shape, color, size, or pattern. It is required to keep the target visible and line of sight during the tracking. The method gives freedom of selection to a user to track any target from the image and form a formation around it. We calculate the parameters like distance and angle from the image center to the object for the individual drones. Among all the drones, the one with a significant GPS signal strength or nearer to the target is chosen as the master drone to calculate the relative angle and distance between an object and other drones considering approximate Geo-location. Compared to actual measurements, the results of tests done on a quadrotor UAV frame achieve 99% location accuracy in a robust environment inside the exact GPS longitude and latitude block as GPS-only navigation methods. The individual drones communicate to the ground station through a telemetry link. The master drone calculates the parameters using data collected at ground stations. Various formation flying methods help escort other drones to meet the desired objective with a single high-resolution first-person view (FPV) camera. The proposed method is tested for Airborne Object Target Tracking (AOT) aerial vehicle model and achieves higher tracking accuracy.

Abstract:
Nowadays, children are more likely to use motorized transportation modes to go to and from school. This paper focuses on examining the relationship between neighbourhood safety and primary-aged children walking to and from school on their own; across different socio-economic areas in Tehran. Self-reported parental and children surveys and urban design measurements were used to determine the influence neighbourhood safety factors have on the choice of children’s school transportation mode. The results reveal that parents and children with negative perceptions of neighbourhood safety tend to use motor vehicles or to escort their children while walking to and from school.

Abstract:
The main tasks for which canine units of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine use search dogs are: inspection of various areas and search operations to identify persons who have committed or intend to commit offenses, their odors and things, detection of persons moving or hiding in the condition of limited visibility in the area; prosecution of offenders, their detention, protection and escort; inspection of trucks and localization of persons hiding in these vehicles; odorological identification of odorous traces of detainees and their belongings; strengthening the personal security of law enforcement officers during their service; psychological impact on offenders. The fundamentals for the active use of dogs in official activities are the physiological features of the olfactory analyser and the physical capabilities of the dog's body. The most common breeds used to perform the outlined tasks are: German shepherd, Bloodhound, Belgian shepherd (Malinois) and others. The article reflects the comparative characteristics of the working qualities of search dogs of German and Belgian (Malinois) shepherd dogs of different sexes and ages. The study was conducted on service dogs in the Canine Training Center of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine located in Velyki Mosty, Sokal district, Lviv region. The working qualities of search dogs were assessed by the skills of obedience, protection, pursuit of a person on his odor trail, secure of the area and detection of a person hiding and moving, selection of odorous objects (things), search and detection of objects (things). It is fixed that the working qualities of search dogs are influenced by breed and sex. Among the males of the German and Belgian (Malinois) Shepherd breeds, the service dogs of the German Shepherd breed were noted for the best working qualities, and among the female – the Belgian Shepherd (Malinois) breeds. A generalized assessment of all four sections of the studied breeds showed that the best performance was in males of the German Shepherd breed (325.4 points) and females of the Belgian Shepherd breed (Malinois) (325.9 points), and among individuals of different sexes – males compared to females of the German Shepherd breed and females compared to males of the Belgian Shepherd (Malinois) breed. Two-year-old males and one-year-old females of the German shepherd breed and two-year-old females of the Belgian Shepherd breed (Malinois) were noted for the best working qualities in terms of skills to be evaluated. As for males of the last breed, their testing qualities almost did not depend on age. The strength of the influence of the breed of service dogs on their working qualities in the skills to be assessed ranged from 0.6 to 6.8 %, sex – from 0.1 to 7.3 % and age - from 0.1 to 11.4 %. The general assessment of service dogs in all sections was generally influenced by their age (1.6 %).

Abstract:
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 30–100 nm, which are released into the extracellular space by fusion of multivesicular and plasma membranes. These vesicles actually play a distinct role in cell communication, although they were considered as membrane debris in the past. The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-dependent and ESCRT-independent mechanisms are currently considered to be involved in the sorting of exosomes, and the release of exosomes is related to the members of Rab protein family and SNARE family. In recent years, the therapeutic potential of exosomes has become apparent. For example, via the direct transplantation of exosomes, the ischemic area after stroke is reduced, and the neurological function is improved significantly. Furthermore, they can be used as effective drug delivery vehicles due to their unique characteristics such as low immunogenicity and nanometer size. In conclusion, exosomes provide a cell-free treatment for ischemic stroke.

Abstract:
JASON Costello, who made “something of a living” by doing up and selling cars, was found by the Police in possession of a turbo-charged Ford Escort. Although he was the car’s registered keeper, the Police (rightly) suspected that it was stolen. They seized it under section 19 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (“PACE”). In this they acted lawfully. They questioned Costello but never actually prosecuted him—despite the original vehicle identification and engine numbers’ having been ground off; Costello’s having acquired the car through a “friend” with multiple convictions for handling stolen cars; and his keeping a “car ringing kit” for forging registration numbers under the back seat.

Abstract:
Hedgehog (Hh) is a secreted morphogen involved in both short- and long-range signaling necessary for tissue patterning during development. It is unclear how this dually lipidated protein is transported over a long range in the aqueous milieu of interstitial spaces. We previously showed that the long-range signaling of Hh requires its oligomerization. Here we show that Hh is secreted in the form of exovesicles. These are derived by the endocytic delivery of cell surface Hh to multivesicular bodies (MVBs) via an endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ECSRT)–dependent process. Perturbations of ESCRT proteins have a selective effect on long-range Hh signaling in Drosophila wing imaginal discs. Of importance, oligomerization-defective Hh is inefficiently incorporated into exovesicles due to its poor endocytic delivery to MVBs. These results provide evidence that nanoscale organization of Hh regulates the secretion of Hh on ESCRT-derived exovesicles, which in turn act as a vehicle for long-range signaling.

Abstract:
It is common for a large motorbike convoy to cause accidents, both between large motorbike riders and other vehicle riders. This is due to the fact that the speed of the large-sized motorbikes itself can be said to be quite fast, coupled with the behavior of some of these riders who sometimes like to run red lights and put aside the traffic signs, which often results in accidents. Based on this factual background, the legal issues examined in this study are: What is the authority of the police in escorting large motorbike convoys and what is the responsibility of the police in implementing the convoy when accident victims occur on the road. The type of research used in this research is normative legal research. The results of this research are that the authority of the police apparatus in providing escort for large motorbike convoys is the provision of Article 14 letters a and 18 paragraph (1) of Law no. 2 of 2002 concerning the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia and Article 12 letter e of Law No. 22 of 2009. These provisions basically constitute the authority of the police apparatus to carry out the regulation, guarding, escort and patrol of community and government activities as needed, and to give the authority to act according to their own judgment in the public interest. The responsibility of the police is to carry out the convoy in the event of a victim of an accident on the highway in order to maintain order and ensure security, safety, orderliness and smoothness of road transportation.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectivesWe aimed to determine the rate of adverse events during interfacility transport of cardiac patients identified as low risk by a consensus-derived screening tool and transported by primary care flight paramedics (PCP(f)).MethodsWe conducted a health records review of adult patients diagnosed with a cardiac condition who were identified as low risk by the screening tool and transported by PCP(f). We excluded patients transported by an advanced care crew, those accompanied by a clinical escort from hospital, and those transported from a scene call, by rotary wing or ground vehicle. We recorded patient and transportation parameters using a piloted-standardized collection tool. We defined adverse events during transport a priori. We report descriptive statistics using mean (standard deviation), [range], (percentage).ResultsWe included 400 patients: mean age 66.9 years old, 66.5% male. Mean transport duration was 136.2 (74.9) minutes. Most common comorbidities were hypertension (50.3%) and coronary artery disease (39.5%). Most transports originated out of Northern Ontario and were for cardiac catheterization (61.8%) or coronary artery bypass grafting (26.8%). Overall, the adverse event rate was low (0.3%), with no serious event such as cardiac arrest, death, or airway intervention.ConclusionsA screening tool can identify cardiac patients at low risk for clinical deterioration during air-medical transport. We believe patients screened with this tool can be transported safely by a PCP(f) crew, leading to potentially significant resource savings.

Abstract:
This thesis is focused on analysis of the legislative regulations for special road transportation between Czech Republic and the Balkan Peninsula. In this work, special transportation stands for heavy and bulky costs that exceed the maximum limits. To carry out such transportations, following the legal standarts of each state where the intended destination is (Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, Kosovo and Macedonia), is needed. The work is divided into chapters that deal with these issues and provide an overview of the legal standards which must be fulfilled in these particular states. The result of this thesis is to provide the necessary information to Czech transporter to perform these special transportations.

Abstract:
Todas as organizações procuram atingir diariamente o máximo de eficiência, atendendo às necessidades dos seus clientes através dos seus recursos. Para além da globalização e da constante inovação tecnológica, temáticas ambientais são cada vez mais um desafio para os gestores que pretendem alcançar objetivos e potenciar a criação de valor de uma organização. A Polícia de Segurança Pública (PSP) para garantir o cumprimento dos seus desígnios dispõe de uma panóplia de meios, dos quais destacamos as viaturas. Este recurso material é utilizado de forma constante em diversas valências da PSP, como é o caso do Programa Escola Segura (PES). No entanto, após uma análise da frota automóvel da PSP inerente ao referido programa, verificamos que os veículos se encontram degradados e envelhecidos. Urge assim a necessidade de proceder à substituição das atuais viaturas do PES, surgindo assim a opção de adquirir viaturas elétricas (VE), motivo pelo qual se realizou um estudo de caráter descritivo exploratório de finalidade aplicada, com recurso a inquéritos por questionário. Este tem como intuito central averiguar os impactos que a adoção deste novo tipo de viaturas no PES poderá ter para a organização. Através de uma análise de viabilidade económico-financeira, concluiu-se que economicamente as VE tornam-se mais onerosas para a PSP. No entanto, dado que a diferença de custos evidenciada é residual, e pelo facto dos resultados obtidos através dos inquéritos por questionário demonstrarem que as VE são uma ótima estratégia de criação de valor, esta opção torna-se bastante apelativa para o futuro da organização, podendo contribuir para uma imagem inovadora e ambiental.
Every organization seek to achieve maximum efficiency every day, according to their customer needs through its resources. Apart from globalization and the constant technology innovation, environmental themes are more and more a challenge for managers who want to achieve goals and enhance the creation of value in an organization. The Public Security Police (PSP), has a panoply of means to guarantee the fulfillment of its purposes, among which we highlight the vehicles. This material resource is constantly used in several valences of the PSP, as is the case of Safe School Program (PES). However, following an analysis of the PSP vehicle fleet inherent to the programme, we verify that the vehicles are damaged and old. Therefore there is an urgent need to replace the current PES vehicles, arising the option of acquiring electrical cars (VE), the reason why has been made a study of exploratory descriptive character with applied purpose, with the use of surveys by questionnaires. The central purpose of this is to inquire about the impacts that the adoption of this new type of vehicles in PES may have for the organization. Through an economic and financial feasibility analysis, it was concluded that economically the VE become more expensive for the PSP. Nevertheless, given that the cost difference evidenced is residual, and because the results obtained through questionnaire surveys demonstrate that VE proves to be an excellent value creation strategy, this option becomes quite appealing for the future of the organization, contributing to an innovative and environmental image.
