As fashion weeks são rituais em que participam os membros de uma comunidade a qual podemos chamar, tendo a proposta de Becker (1982) como referência, o “mundo da moda”. Embora conectado com uma comunidade específica, esse ritual impacta a vida social das cidades, transmutando os seus espaços. Este texto começa por fazer, tendo por base o caso de Paris, um breve historial do percurso de dispersão pelo espaço da cidade que os desfiles de moda fizeram desde o século XIX até a atualidade, associando esse percurso às principais modificações de caráter social e performativo, que esses eventos foram sofrendo. Em um segundo momento, o texto centra-se na cidade de Lisboa, que é tomada como um estudo de caso revelador, apesar das suas particularidades e das dinâmicas universais do ritual das fashion weeks. Palavras-chaves: Fashion Weeks. Mundo da Moda. Ritual. Performance. Espaço. Cultura Material. Vestir. Abstract The fashion weeks are rituals that participates members of a community we can call, having Becker's (1982) proposal as a reference, the “world of fashion”. Although connected to a specific community, this ritual impacts the social life of cities, transmuting their spaces. This text begins by making, based on the case of Paris, a brief history of the route of dispersion throughout the city that fashion shows have made from the 19th century to the present day, associating this route with the main changes of social and performative character, that these events suffered. In a second moment, the text focuses on the city of Lisbon, which is taken as a revealing case study, despite its particularities, the universal dynamics of the fashion weeks ritual. Keywords: Fashion Weeks. World of Fashion. Ritual. Performance. Space. Material Culture. Dress.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore the effects of fashion weeks on brand constellations of participating fashion companies in social media.Design/methodology/approachThe study analyses how brand constellations take form for seven Swedish fashion companies before, during and after Fashion Week Stockholm. In total, 3,449 user-generated contents referring to the sampled brands were collected and analysed.FindingsOn average, brand constellations of participating companies are increasingly incorporating other participating brands as a result of the fashion week. Based on the presented results, four brand constellation outcomes for participating fashion companies are identified: brand constellation amplification, concentration, division and dilution.Research limitations/implicationsAs this paper is focussed on the Swedish market, additional results from fashion weeks taking place in other cities would be beneficial to verify the four brand constellation outcomes.Practical implicationsThe results question the resilience of professionally curated brand constellations due to the emergence of user-driven constellations that also shape the position of fashion brands. Therefore, this development can potentially have a considerable impact on often carefully orchestrated brand positioning strategies executed by fashion companies.Social implicationsDigitally fuelled interdependences of brand constellations by professionals and consumers attest to the dilution of borders between consumers and producers.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the field of fashion marketing and management by identifying four different brand constellation outcomes in social media for participating fashion companies as a result of fashion weeks and how to managerially handle these respective outcomes.

Contemporary Muslim Fashions, September 22, 2018 – January 6, 2019 was organized by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, shown in the de Young Museum and curated by Jill D’Alessandro and Laura Camerlengo, both curators at the museum, and consulting curator Reina Lewis, a scholar at the London College of Fashion, University of the Arts London. The aim was to represent contemporary Muslim fashions. To this end, they assembled and exhibited a collection of garments from the most popular fashion designers of the day, chosen from a series of shows at modest fashion weeks around the world. Supplemented by key pieces that have gained traction in the news such as the Burkini™ and Nike®’s sport hijab, this exhibit elevated perceptions and highlighted a global view by showing designs from around the globe, honouring the African-American, Muslim-American, Arab, and South East Asian cultures and aesthetics. Supporting the sartorial narrative was a display of visual and multimedia art from hip hop music videos, film, Instagram feeds, photography, magazine covers, and prints. The multimedia “exhibit within an exhibit” complemented the sartorial narrative by providing a contemporary context for the clothing. It reminded the observer that the exhibit was not merely about fashion history or the evolution of modesty in dress but about a contemporary moment. The relationship between fashion and the body was explored through designs that cover the body and intentionally hide the often objectified and sexualized female figure to reveal a contemporary approach to fashion that is empowering.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to add to the literature by exploring how curvilinear manifestations of user engagement can be explained in the setting of fashion-oriented social media. Design/methodology/approach – This study analyses how ten Swedish fashion brands have been integrated in expressions of user engagement in social media. In total, a material of 11,173 user-generated contents from different types of social media applications over a period of 12 weeks was collected and analysed. Findings – The results of this paper show that user engagement fluctuates considerably over time in social media. It also shows that the degree of engagement varies between different forms of social media applications. Originality/value – This study contributes to the literature on fashion marketing and user engagement by adding empirical support for the suggestion that expressions of engagement found in social media are curvilinear in their nature. It also concludes that highly involved and engaged users, instead of being brand activists, tend to be variety seekers in the studied setting that when taken together represents an emerging managerial challenge for the fashion industry and particularly fashion firms.

Full textAbstract:
The creative and cultural industries form an important part of many urban economies, and the fashion industries are one of the exemplar creative industries. Because fashion is based on intangibles such as branding and reputation, it tends to have a two-way relationship with cities: urban areas market themselves through their fashion industry, while the fashion industry draws heavily on the representation of place. In this paper we investigate this interlinked relationship between the fashion industry and place in four of the major cities of global fashion – London, New York, Milan and Paris – using data from the social media platform Twitter. To do this, we draw upon a variety of computer-aided text analysis techniques – including cluster, correspondence and specificity analyses – to examine almost 100,000 tweets collected during the Spring–Summer fashion weeks of February and March 2018. We find considerable diversity in how these cities are represented. Milan and Paris are seen in terms of national fashion houses, artisanal production and traditional institutions such as galleries and exhibitions. New York is focused on media and entertainment, independent designers and a ‘buzzy’ social life. London is portrayed in the most diverse ways, with events, shopping, education, social movements, political issues and the royal family all prominent. In each case, the historical legacy and built environment form important parts of the city’s image. However, there is considerable diversity in representation. We argue that social media allow a more democratic view of the way cities are represented than other methodologies.

Summary Objectives: To describe minimally-invasive lag screw osteosynthesis combined with external coaptation for the treatment of Salter-Harris type II third metacarpal and third metatarsal bone fractures. Methods: Three foals aged two weeks to four months with a Salter-Harris type II third metacarpal or third metatarsal fracture. Surgery was carried out under general anaesthesia in lateral recumbency. After fracture reduction, the metaphyseal fragment was stabilized with two cortical screws placed in lag fashion under fluoroscopic control. A cast was applied for at least two weeks. Results: All foals had a good outcome with complete fracture healing and return to complete soundness without any angular limb deformity. All foals had moderate transient digital hyperextension after cast removal. Clinical significance: Internal fixation of Salter-Harris type II third metacarpal or third metatarsal fractures with two cortical screws in lag fashion, combined with external coaptation provided good stabilization and preserved the longitudinal growth potential of the injured physis.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Tissue reaction to transcatheter mitral valve replacement in the mitral annulus remains to be elucidated. METHODS Trileaflet porcine pericardial valves were sewn onto self-expanding d-shaped nitinol stents, which were delivered transapically and in an off-pump fashion into the mitral position of 10 pigs. After at least 4 weeks of follow-up, gross pathological assessment and histological examination were performed. The specimens were stained with Movat’s pentachrome, Elastica-van-Gieson and von Kossa staining. The leucocytes, B cells, T cells or macrophages were detected by specific immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS Proper stent positioning in the mitral annulus was achieved in 9/10 animals. Nine of 10 animals survived the desired observation period. In all but one, the mitral valve stent was well integrated into the left atrium and perpendicularly embedded into the annulus by 85 ± 24%. One animal had minor fractures in the nitinol struts and another animal showed tearing of 1 of 4 tethers. Histological examination demonstrated no major tissue reaction with the nitninol struts but well-preserved overall structures around the mitral annulus in 8/9 cases. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report demonstrating good in-growth of transcatheter-delivered anatomically shaped mitral valve stents after at least 4 weeks of follow-up. Histological examination demonstrated progressive healing and neointimalization.

Six, 9, and 12-mm diam dicalcium phosphate tablets were evaluated for their release of acetochlor, metolachlor, and metribuzin. Greenhouse bioassays with Italian ryegrass demonstrated that herbicides from the smaller tablets did not control grass as long as from the larger tablets. Italian ryegrass was controlled within a 5- to 7-cm diam circle around the 12-mm diam tablet and a 5-cm diam circle around the 6-mm diam tablet. All tested herbicides responded in a similar fashion. Six-mm diam tablets released metolachlor for 11 weeks, while the 12-mm tablet was active for 28 weeks.

Full textAbstract:
Aim of the research: This research aims to create an understanding for the new ways in which global fashion influencers’ attending fashion week are contributing to the presentation of it as gatekeepers and distributors of information and fashion knowledge, and how this rolea dds new perspectives to how fashion week is presented. Method: The research has been limited to analysing the material of six global fashion influencers, with a total following of 28 million people, during the major fashion weeks of Spring/Summer 2017 and Autumn/Winter 2017. The material has been collected and analyzed using a qualitative content analysis, also called ethnographic content analysis, with focus on distinguishing common characteristics in the text. Findings: The results have shown that the fashion influencers have contributed to the presentation of fashion week in several new ways, with the greatest characteristic being sharing a broad picture of what is going on during fashion week. The influencers are also sharing insight to exclusive fashion shows and events that have traditionally not been shared with the public. More over, the fashion influencers are sharing their personal perspectives and experiences of fashion week as well as their personal taste and opinions regarding fashion trends and other things. They are also adding a new commercial and promotional focus while presenting an idealized image of fashion week to their followers. The findings are indicated that the fashion influencers have established an important role at fashion week, which in turnis affecting the presentation of it. Contributions: The findings presented in this research can be of relevance for those who wants to understand the fashion influencers’ role during fashion week, for instance fashion brands and designers who wishes to learn how to engage with the fashion influencers’ from a business and marketing perspective. Considering social media and the fashion influencers affecting the presentation of fashion week as societal changes, the findings can also be relevant for fashion researchers who wishes to understand how these changes are affecting the presentation of fashion week and the fashion industry.

Full textAbstract:
Background: It is clear that the fashion industry is experiencing a change as a result of the explosion of social media. Today the four key social media platforms for fashion houses are Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat. The society has created a culture around these media platforms, which is referred to as insta-culture. Why read Vogue magazine to find out the latest trends, when social media is covering the runways in real time? A debate about what direction the fashion industry is heading towards is a hot topic of discussion. The fashion industry has gone through changes before but now consumers have become more demanding regarding quick accessibility of fashion. Consumer behavior and the way we consume fashion has changed. An obvious sign of the change within the industry is how fashion weeks around the world have become the most coveted”it” event for celebrities and fashionistas worldwide. Fashion week is a fashion industry event that lasts around one week. The goal is for the fashion industry to network and for fashion houses to share their next season collections. Fashion weeks have traditionally been a closed, trade only-event which highlights promotional and glamorous entertainment events. However, now it is the most important shows that everyone wants to be seen at. What will become of fashion weeks is truly unknown. One thing that is for sure is that the development of social media definitely plays a vital role in the change of the industry. Aims of the research: The broader aim of this research is to analyze through the lens of fashion week, what is happening in fashion week and the driver of change within the fashion industry, social media, and to unravel why we see a change in fashion week now. The second aim is also to investigate in what way the change is affecting the way fashion is displayed at fashion weeks. Methods: This thesis was completed by gathering observations and analyzing interviews, blogs, press, journal articles, social media and observations that focused on the phenomenon of fashion week especially in the New York and Stockholm context. This qualitative method is referring to as Netnography using primarily data gathering from the internet and data from the existing interviews with people from the industry. Results: Social media has affected the fashion weeks in many ways. Today fashion brands have to include social media in their marketing strategy in order to survive in the insta-culture that reflects on the society. The insta-culture has as well resulted in that fashion week has been reinvented to an entertainment event open for everyone. The democratization of the fashion week has in turn resulted in that designers have to change how and when they deliver fashion. Instead of waiting six months for the collections to hit the stores, designers now have adopted a see now buy now model. Contributions: The result of this thesis brings awareness to people within the fashion industry and fashion theories when it comes to what is happening to the industry and how to better support fashion management strategies. Social media has created an insta-culture in the society that also affects the fashion industry. This thesis also highlights the great impact that the society has on fashion even today. This study therefore further develops the sociological theory when it comes to the impact from the society and how it affects fashion.

Previous issue date: 2013-08-05<br>Transformações relacionadas às Indústrias Criativas (ICs) dos países emergentes têm sido objeto de interesse de estudos acadêmicos. Entretanto, pesquisadores dos Estudos Organizacionais ainda não realizaram investigações relacionadas a transformações na Indústria Criativa da Moda (ICM). A ICM vem, de fato, sendo negligenciada por esse campo de estudos. Este trabalho visa, portanto, preencher essa lacuna. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo de caso descritivo sobre a SPFW (São Paulo Fashion Week). O objetivo do estudo foi examinar como agentes relacionados a essa semana de moda internacional contribuíram, por meio de atividades discursivas, para transformar a prática da ICM no Brasil – de copiar moda de luxo estrangeira a desenvolver moda “nacional”. Como perspectiva teórica foi adotada a lente teórica “Discurso e Instituições”. Foram analisados textos produzidos por agentes relacionados à SPFW entre 1994 a 2011, tais como press releases, documentários e reportagens sobre os eventos. Foram realizadas, ainda, entrevistas com 13 profissionais do setor. O estudo levou a concluir que agentes relacionados à SPFW transformaram a prática da ICM pela produção e disseminação de textos que formaram o discurso “A ICM do Brasil produz moda própria, contemporânea e sofisticada” – de acordo com seus interesses. A aceitação dessa “nova realidade” pelos indivíduos, constituída por esse discurso, possibilitou um novo entendimento sobre a prática de produção da ICM: ser recomendável desenvolver moda própria, ao invés de ser aceitável copiar moda estrangeira. Tal formação discursiva, todavia, não ocorreu sem conflitos e disputas entre agentes. Também não ocorreu num vácuo social, mas foi favorecida por acontecimentos no contexto da globalização: crise da indústria têxtil, aumento na disponibilidade de informações, aversão à chegada de bens de luxo importados ao país, boom das modelos brasileiras.

Full textAbstract:
Background - Welcome to the 2010’s and its visual information culture informing about the century-old ideal of thinness, by sending (almost) exclusively thin bodies down the runway of Paris Fashion Week (PFW). This, while at the same time the academia and mass media are repeatedly articulating the necessity of a more ethical aesthetic within the fashion industry, while the argument that “thinness sells” lack empirical support, while measures are taken around Europe to discourage media bias and encourage healthy bodies walking the, and while the body positivity movement – applauding the diversity of body types – is on the rise in the Western society. Problem - How can it be explained that PFW, as an event organized to communicate the latest trends, and as an institution of a concept that thrives on change, is being stuck in an inertia of thin models? The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore the explanations for the idealization of thin bodies in regard to female runway models, to be found in visual representations of PFW. Examining the paradox of the idealization of thin bodies has the potential to reveal the measures necessary to establish practices of ethical representation in the realm of PFW. Method - The search for explanations to the inertia of the thin ideal on the runways of PFW is based upon a qualitative research design and a method of semi-structured interviews. The sample consisted of fourteen people involved in the event of PFW. It is framed within three theoretical perspectives: the trickle-down, trickle-across and trickle-up theories – associated with authors such as Simmel (1957), King (1963) and Blumer (1969a; 1969b); a theoretical view of the relation between fashion, clothes and the body provided by Barnard (2014) and, lastly, the Organizational Ecology Theory presented by Hannan and Freeman (1977; 1989). Findings - The findings suggest that the inertia of the thin ideal on the runways of PFW is explained by the thin body not only being part of a long history and tradition of creating and showing fashion, but also being dressed in aesthetic value. At the same time, the explanations to the idealization, or inertia, of thin bodies on PFW are found to be multiple as well as paradoxical, a conclusion serving as an explanation in itself. Conclusion – It is difficult to point out the explanation to the inertia of the thin ideal – both in terms of factors and actors – not at least due to the explanations stemming from both social and cultural as well as economic aspects of fashion. As a consequence, every actor part the fashion industry need to understand the effects as well as the extent of idealization of thin bodies, and start to realize that public health is more important than profits.

<p><strong>Background:</strong> Over the past few years Swedish fashion has expanded and gained attention, both in Sweden and abroad. Every year fashion weeks take place around the world with the purpose of showcasing fashion designers new collections for the up-coming season.</p><p>Fashion week in Sweden is arranged in Stockholm four times a year in the end of January, in February, in the turn of June and July and in August. The different occasions have different activities and focus. The main focus of January and June/July are fashion shows and the main focus of February and August are trade fairs for buyers and wholesalers. The fashion shows and trade fairs are closed to the public, but other fashion events directed to the public takes place during these weeks. Seeing as many stakeholders are involved in fashion week they all have some kind of relationship to one another. This makes fashion week in Stockholm an interesting case to study and analyze from a sociological theoretical approach.</p>

Dissertação de mestrado em Design e Comunicação de Moda<br>A dissertação que aqui se anuncia parte do pressuposto e da convicção de que a moda
e o vestuário são fenómenos que contam histórias e que, também, são contados a partir
de histórias. A par da linguagem verbal, os discursos visuais assumem-se como um pilar
fundamental na construção dessas narrativas, através de estímulos que apelam a uma
reação emocional e abrem novas e múltiplas possibilidades de comunicação. As mensagens
veiculadas na comunicação visual estão indubitavelmente sujeitas a análises subjetivas
e, nesse sentido, a semiótica oferece as ferramentas essenciais que fundamentam e
iluminam esse exercício interpretativo, salientando a importância do signo, do sujeito e do
contexto na análise de uma imagem. Assim sendo, o design de comunicação é um recurso
essencial na comunicação de um produto de moda, sendo responsável pela partilha de
mensagens, ideias, valores e sensações que agregam valor à sua comunicação. Ao longo
desta dissertação, a importância do design de comunicação para a moda é validada com
recurso a exemplos práticos que aliam estas duas áreas fundamentais do conhecimento,
quer na sua produção como na sua promoção.
As semanas da moda são momentos importantes na vida da indústria. As coleções
apresentadas em passerelle atraem a atenção dos media internacionais e dos grandes
agentes da indústria e, nesse sentido, são uma plataforma que oferece a oportunidade
aos designers de expressarem as suas ideias, convicções, valores e ambições em relação
à moda e ao mundo. As diferenças do ponto de vista social, cultural e económico entre
os vários países que as organizam, transformam as semanas da moda numa mostra que
reflete essa complexidade e diversidade. Essa pluralidade de abordagens é refletida na
sua comunicação, em especial nos seus discursos visuais e, por essa razão, oferece
uma valiosa oportunidade de análise do ponto de vista sociológico e académico. Nesta
dissertação, é feita uma análise à comunicação visual de diferentes semanas da moda,
tais como: Paris, Milão, Nova Iorque, Londres, Budapeste, Seoul, Melbourne e o Portugal
Fashion, que se procurou sustentar e ancorar através dos conceitos e metodologias
apresentados no quadro referencial teórico.<br>The dissertation announced here is based on the assumption and conviction that fashion
and clothing are a phenomena that tell stories and that are also told from stories. Along
with verbal language, visual discourses are assumed to be a fundamental pillar in the
construction of these narratives, through inputs that appeal to an emotional reaction
and open up new and multiple communication possibilities. The messages conveyed in
visual communication are undoubtedly subject to subjective analysis and, in this sense,
semiotics offers the essential tools that underlie and illuminate this interpretive exercise,
emphasizing the importance of the sign, the subject, and the context in the analysis of an
image. Therefore, communication design is an essential resource in the communication of
a fashion product, being responsible for sharing messages, ideas, values, and sensations
that add value to your communication. Throughout this dissertation, the importance of
communication design for fashion is validated using practical examples that combine these
two fundamental areas of knowledge, both in their production and in their promotion.
Fashion weeks are important moments in the life of the industry. The collections presented
on the catwalk attract the attention of international media and major industry players and,
in this sense, are a platform that offers designers the opportunity to express their ideas,
convictions, values, and ambitions concerning fashion and the world. Differences from a
social, cultural, and economic point of view between the various countries that organize
them, transform fashion weeks into a show that reflects this complexity and diversity. This
plurality of approaches is reflected in his communication, especially in his visual speeches,
and, for this reason, offers a valuable opportunity for analysis from a sociological and
academic point of view. In this dissertation, an analysis is made of the visual communication
of different fashion weeks, such as Paris, Milan, New York, London, Budapest, Seoul,
Melbourne, and Portugal Fashion, which sought to support and anchor through the concepts
and methodologies presented in the theoretical referential framework.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractAs it has been already explained, it is very important for circular economies to minimize the wasted resources, as well as maximize the utilization value of the existing ones. To that end, experts can evaluate the materials and give an accurate estimation for both aspects. In that case, one might wonder, why is a decision support system employing machine learning necessary? While a fully automated machine learning model rarely surpasses a human’s ability in such tasks, there are several advantages in employing one. For starters, human experts will be more expensive to employ, rather than use an algorithm. One could claim that research towards developing an efficient and fully automated decision support system would end up costing more than employing actual human experts. In this instance, it is paramount to think long-term. Investing in this kind of research will create systems which are reusable, extensible, and scalable. This aspect alone more than remedies the initial costs. It is also important to observe that, if the number of wastes to be processed is more than the human experts can process in a timely fashion, they will not be able to provide their services, even if employment costs were not a concern. On the contrary, a machine learning model is perfectly capable of scaling to humongous amounts of data, conducting fast data processing and decision making. For power plants with particularly fast processing needs, an automated decision support system is an important asset. Moreover, a decision support system can predict the future based on past observations. While not always entirely spot on, it can give a future estimation about aspects such as energy required, amounts of wastes produced etc. in the future. Therefore, processing plants can plan of time and adapt to specific needs. A human expert can provide this as well to some degree, but on a much smaller scale. Especially in time series forecasting, it is interesting to note that, even if a decision support model does not predict exact values, it is highly likely to predict trends of the value increasing or decreasing in certain ranges. In the next sections, we are going to describe the four machine learning models that were developed and which compose the Decision Support System of FENIX. Section 8.1 describes how we predict the quality of the extracted materials based on features such as temperature, extruder speed, etc. Section 8.2 describes the process of extracting heuristic rules based on existing results. Section 8.3 describes how FENIX provides time-series forecasting to predict the future of a variable based on past observations. Finally, Sect. 8.4 describes the process of classifying materials based on images.

Full textAbstract:
On 3 September 1658 the death of Oliver Cromwell thrust the dilemma of succession onto the Privy Council; that day they declared Oliver’s eldest son, Richard, Lord Protector. In the weeks and months that followed, the challenge of imagining, celebrating, and legitimating this unprecedented succession would be taken up by those writing on the event of Oliver’s death and Richard’s accession. This chapter addresses the dilemmas facing those who would fashion Cromwellian celebrity and succession by focusing on a small pamphlet of funerary verse, Three Poems Upon the Death of his late Highnesse, issued in the spring of 1659, rather late in the season of mourning. The volume itself presents a number of puzzles—formal, bibliographical, and imaginative—that can be read both as an emblem of the contradictions of Cromwellian rule—present and absent Oliver Cromwell—and of the anxieties that lay ahead when Three Poems finally appeared.

Full textAbstract:
Scholars offer differing views on the origins of lone-actor terrorism, variously tracing its roots to anarchist loners of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, idiosyncratic loners of the post-World War II period, radical right-wing loners of the 1980s, or jihadist loners of the post-9/11 era. Key aspects of each historical explanation are considered in this chapter, along with a discussion of how lone-actor terrorism has evolved over time. The analysis suggests that lone-actor terrorists are motivated by the martyring of other lone terrorists, the copycatting of lone terrorists from the past, and ideological belonging within extremist movements—all of which evolves in a remarkably uniform fashion across time and space, cultures, and mass media technologies. Special attention is given to idiosyncratic loners who evince a tendency to broadcast their intent to commit terrorism in the weeks, days, hours, and even minutes before an attack. Broadcasting intent has important implications for prevention: if lone-actor terrorists typically announce their intentions to commit violence beforehand, then presumably steps can be taken to stop them.

Full textAbstract:
Hydro-PED [1] is a numerical simulation software which models nucleation and propagation of damage zones and seismicity patterns induced by wellbore fluid injection. While most of the studies in geo-physical simulation acceleration and parallelization usually focus on exascale scenarios which are translated into vast meshes, encouraging a distributed fashion of parallelization, the nature of the current simulations of Hydro-PED dictates amount of data that can conveniently fit on a single compute node – NUMA and accelerator memory alike. Thus shared-memory parallelization (such as OpenMP) can be fully implemented. In order to utilize this insight, Hydro-PED was interfaced with Trilinos [2] linear algebra solvers package, which enabled an evolution to iterative methods such as CG and GMRES. Additionally, several code sectors were parallelized and offloaded to an accelerator using OpenMP in a fine grained manner. The changes implemented in Hydro-PED gained a total speedup of x5-x12, which will enable Hydro-PED to calculate long-term simulation scenarios of hundreds of years in a feasible time – a few weeks rather than a year.

Full textAbstract:
Articular cartilage is the primary compressive load bearing soft tissue in diarthrodial joints. While the tissue can function remarkably well in a demanding environment over a lifetime of use, focal defects and other trauma can initiate progressive degeneration. Cartilage tissue engineering approaches have been developed with the goal of forming biologic replacement materials with functional mechanical properties [1]. While chondrocytes are a popular cell source for such approaches, and can produce constructs with near-native functional properties [2], mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow have emerged as an attractive alternative cell type. MSCs are multi-potent and easy to expand, and so are available in a nearly unlimited supply, and in an autologous fashion. While MSCs can undergo functional chondrogenesis in a variety of 3D contexts [3], we are particularly interested in the translational capacity of hyaluronic acid (HA). Hydrogels formed from this natural constituent of the cartilage extracellular matrix provide a biologically relevant interface for encapsulated cells and gel properties are readily tunable [4, 5]. Indeed, using a methacrylated (and so photo-crosslinkable) HA macromer, we have optimized gel formation and functional matrix production by MSCs with variations in both macromer (1%, [5]) and MSC (∼60 million cells/mL, [6]) concentration, consistently producing cartilage-like constructs with near native compressive properties. Additionally, we have reported that transient exposure of TGF-β3 (for three weeks) to MSCs in agarose constructs at a high-density induced a stable chondrogenic phenotype, with functional properties at six weeks greater than continual exposure to this pro-chondrogenic factor [7]. Transient exposure presents an interesting paradigm with clinical relevance, in vivo defect filling will require robust maturation of the engineered tissue driven by TGF-β3 delivered from the material itself in a controlled and sustained fashion. The purpose of this study was to determine the minimal TGF-β3 dosage and duration of exposure required to promote the most robust chondrogenesis and functional maturation of MSCs in this HA hydrogel system.

Full textAbstract:
The paper will focus on two core-compressor instabilities, namely rotating stall and surge. Using a 3D viscous time-accurate flow representation, the front bladerows of a core-compressor were modelled in a whole-annulus fashion whereas the rest of bladerows were represented in single passage fashion. The rotating stall behaviour at two different compressor operating points was studied by considering two different variable-vane scheduling conditions for which experimental data were available. Using a model with 9 whole bladerows, the unsteady flow calculations were conducted on 32-CPUs of a parallel cluster, typical run times being around 3–4 weeks for a grid with about 60 million points. The simulations were conducted over several engine rotations. As observed on the actual development engine, there was no rotating stall for the first scheduling condition while mal-scheduling of the stator vanes created a 12 band rotating stall which excited the rotor blade 1st flap mode. In a separate set of calculations, the surge behaviour was modelled using a time-accurate single-passage representation of the core compressor. It was possible to predict not only flow reversal into the low pressure compression domain, but also the expected hysteresis pattern of the surge loop in terms of its mass flow vs pressure characteristic.

Full textAbstract:
Defibrotide is a derivative of polydeoxyribonucleotide extracted from bovine lung which has been found to produce profound activation of endothelial cells as evidenced by the increase of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and prostacyclin levels in animal models. Administration of a 600 mg dose daily for six weeks to patients with peripheral obliterative diseases resulted in significant clinical improvements in post-treatment exercise tests and radionuclide arteriography. Results were consistent with improvements in the circulation. Ex vivo blood analysis showed marked increases in the production of t-PA and prostacyclin levels. Other laboratory tests were also suggestive of activated endothelial states. Platelet C-AMP levels were increased, whereas MDA and TXB2 levels were reduced. No systemic anticoagulation was observed in terms of alterations of the global coagulant tests (PT, APTT, etc.). These studies suggest that Defibrotide mainly acts via the modulation of the endothelial function and acts in a novel fashion in contrast to other drugs used in this area.

Full textAbstract:
In today’s economic environment, larger capital investments by power plants, especially nuclear plants, are tending towards shorter project lead times; and at the same time with an emphasis on improved performance and future reliability. These ideas are generally not synonymous with cost effectiveness. Often it is very beneficial that the engineering phase for this equipment be flexible such that the needs of the end user, engineer, and equipment vendor are met in a cooperative fashion. The recent power uprate scope of supply at NextEra Energies Point Beach Nuclear Power Plant was modified about 36 weeks before the outage start date to include large replacement condensate coolers for each unit with the Unit 2 exchanger delivery being critical. This left a small window in which to generate a specification, purchase, and produce the first of two 14,500 ft2 heat exchangers. The project had many design challenges that needed to be addressed including the installation, size limitations, nozzle locations, nuclear plant quality requirements and consideration of lake/sea grass (string from algae) fouling, zebra/quagga mussel fouling, and alewife (small fish) pluggage concerns in order to bring the project to a successful conclusion. These issues needed the combined strengths of the Engineer, End User, and Fabricator working quickly and making timely decisions to bring the total project to the most cost effective and successful conclusion.

Full textAbstract:
Location-Based Social Networks (LBSN) data contains spatial, temporal, and social features of user activity, providing valuable information that is currently available on large-scale and low-cost fashion via traditional data collection methods. In this way, LBSN data enables to predict user mobility based on spatial, temporal, and social features, which can be used in several areas, such as device-to-device (D2D) communication, caching, and others. In addition, a Temporal Markov Chain (TMC) is a stochastic model used to model randomly changing systems, such as mobility prediction based on the spatiotemporal factor such as location and day of the week. In this paper, we introduce the Temporal Markov Model with User Similarity (TEMMUS) mobility prediction model. TEMMUS considers a TMC of variable order based on the day of the week (weekday or weekend) and the user similarity to predict the user's future location. The results highlight a higher accuracy of TEMMUS compared to three state-of-the-art Markov Model predictors.
