Abstract:
Several studies have identified Front-of-Pack Nutrition Labels (FoPLs) as a promising strategy to improve the nutritional quality of consumers’ food choices and encourage manufacturers to offer healthier products. This study aims to fill the evidence gap regarding the most effective FoPL among the Portuguese population. In total, 1059 Portuguese participants were recruited through a web panel provider and asked to declare their intended food choices and to rank three sets of products (pizza, cakes and breakfast cereals) according to their nutritional quality, first in the absence of any labelling, and then with a FoPL displayed on-pack (five FoPLs tested). Finally, participants were asked to answer nine statements related to perceptions of FoPLs. Results showed that participants improved their food choices, depending on the FoPL and the food category. All FoPLs led to a higher percentage of correct responses on the ranking task compared to the no label condition. The Nutri-Score was among the FoPLs producing the greatest improvement across all food categories compared to the reference intakes (OR = 6.45 [4.43–9.39], p-value < 0.0001) and facilitating the highest percentage to correctly rank products according to nutritional quality. This study suggests that, among the available options, Nutri-Score is the most efficient FoPL to inform Portuguese consumers of the nutritional quality of foods and help them identify healthier options in mock purchasing situations.

Abstract:
Public health policies have been widely utilized to improve population nutrition, such as the newly announced front-of-pack labels (FOPLs) that will be applied to Canadian prepackaged foods to help consumers make healthier selections. However, research on similar health logos in the food service sector has been limited. This study explores the potential application of FOPL-style health logos in the food service sector and its impact on consumer behaviors. A survey was conducted among 1070 Canadians to assess their awareness, perception, and support for health logos on restaurant menus. The results indicate that while participants value healthy food options when dining out, taste, price, and convenience remain the primary factors influencing their choices. Most participants were unaware of existing FOPL policies and demonstrated mixed responses regarding the influence of similar health logos on their restaurant selection. However, a majority expressed a desire to see FOPL-style health logos on menus, and nutrient profile ratings and logos indicating nutrient limitations or encouragements were listed as preferred health logos. Notably, females indicated higher supportiveness for FOPL-style health logos on menus and individuals with food allergies exhibited higher agreement in the likelihood of eating at a restaurant displaying labels. Additionally, findings revealed that FOPL-style health logos alone may not significantly deter consumers from purchasing labelled menu items, especially if price is affected. Overall, this study highlights the need for further understanding consumer perceptions to effectively develop and implement FOPL initiatives in the food service sector.

Abstract:
Front-of-Package labels (FoPLs) are efficient tools for increasing consumers’ awareness of foods’ nutritional quality and encouraging healthier choices. A label’s design is likely to influence its effectiveness; however, few studies have compared the ability of different FoPLs to facilitate a consumer understanding of foods’ nutritional quality, especially across sociocultural contexts. This study aimed to assess consumers’ ability to understand five FoPLs [Health Star Rating system (HSR), Multiple Traffic Lights (MTL), Nutri-Score, Reference Intakes (RIs), and Warning symbol] in 12 different countries. In 2018, approximately 1000 participants per country were recruited and asked to rank three sets of label-free products (one set of three pizzas, one set of three cakes, and one set of three breakfast cereals) according to their nutritional quality, via an online survey. Participants were subsequently randomised to one of five FoPL conditions and were again asked to rank the same sets of products, this time with a FoPL displayed on pack. Changes in a participants’ ability to correctly rank products across the two tasks were assessed by FoPL using ordinal logistic regression. In all 12 countries and for all three food categories, the Nutri-Score performed best, followed by the MTL, HSR, Warning symbol, and RIs.

Abstract:
In recent years, front-of-pack nutrition labeling (FOPL) schemes have proliferated, but the components of the diet subject to FOPL have not been described. This study quantified the proportion and elements of the diet that would be subject to FOPL in the US. The 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (n = 7121; age ≥2 y) 24-h dietary recalls were used to identify foods/beverages subject to FOPL. The proportion of dietary energy and additional dietary constituents subject to FOPL was estimated. Overall, 57% of dietary energy would be subject to FOPL. Individuals consuming more away-from-home meals had lower exposure to FOPL. Adults with a healthy-weight and those consuming a more healthful diet had more exposure to FOPL. Protein, sodium, potassium, whole fruit, vegetables, and unprocessed meats were less subject to FOPL as compared to total sugars, added sugars, calcium, fruit juice, milk, yogurt, nuts/seeds and whole grains. Because less than 60% of the diet would be impacted by FOPL, implementation of such a policy may have limited reach for the US diet and demonstrates some inconsistencies with current dietary guidance regarding the under- and over-representation of key food groups and nutrients.

Abstract:
Front of pack food labels (FOPLs) provide accessible nutritional information to guide consumer choice. Using an online experiment with a large representative British sample, we aimed to examine whether FOPLs improve participants’ ability to identify the healthiness of foods and drinks. The primary aim was to compare ability to rank between FOPL groups and a no label control. Adults (≥18 years), recruited from the NatCen panel, were randomised to one of five experimental groups (Multiple Traffic Light, MTL; Nutri-Score, N-S; Warning Label, WL; Positive Choice tick, PC; no label control). Stratification variables were year of recruitment to panel, sex, age, government office region, and household income. Packaging images were created for three versions, varying in healthiness, of six food and drink products (pizza, drinks, cakes, crisps, yoghurts, breakfast cereals). Participants were asked to rank the three product images in order of healthiness. Ranking was completed on a single occasion and comprised a baseline measure (with no FOPL), and a follow-up measure including the FOPL as per each participant’s experimental group. The primary outcome was the ability to accurately rank product healthiness (all products ranked correctly vs. any incorrect). In 2020, 4504 participants had complete data and were included in the analysis. The probability of correct ranking at follow-up, and improving between baseline and follow-up, was significantly greater across all products for the N-S, MTL and WL groups, compared to control. This was seen for only some of the products for the PC group. The largest effects were seen for N-S, followed by MTL. These analyses were adjusted for stratification variables, ethnicity, education, household composition, food shopping responsibility, and current FOPL use. Exploratory analyses showed a tendency for participants with higher compared to lower education to rank products more accurately. Conclusions: All FOPLs were effective at improving participants’ ability to correctly rank products according to healthiness in this large representative British sample, with the largest effects seen for N-S, followed by MTL.

Abstract:
The WHO recommends front-of-package labeling (FOPL) to help parents make healthier food choices for their children. But which type of FOPL resonates with parents in China? We performed a cross-sectional study to investigate parental preferences for five widely used formats of FOPL. A multi-stage cluster sampling method was applied to selected parents of students in primary and secondary schools in six provinces and municipalities from July 2020 to March 2021. A close-ended questionnaire was used to collect demographic information, parents’ preferences for five FOPL in three dimensions, perceptions of the importance of nutrients labeled on FOPL, and prepackaged foods that need FOPL most. Chi-square tests were used to examine the characteristics among five groups. The results showed that multiple traffic lights (MTL) was preferred by parents, followed by warning labels. Parents thought the most needed nutrients to label were sugar, salt, and total fat. The top three prepackaged foods to label were “baked food”, “milk and dairy products” and “sugar-sweetened beverages”. Our findings indicate that nutrient-specific FOPL formats with interpretive aids were preferred by Chinese parents. These new findings can help inform the planning and implementation of FOPL in China and help Chinese parents make healthier food choices.

AbstractObjectiveThe present commentary introduces a Health Evidence Network (HEN) report that synthesises evidence of front-of-pack food labelling (FOPL) policy development and implementation across the European Region.DesignCountries were identified as having policies on interpretive FOPL from the WHO databases of Member State policies and online repositories of global food policies. For each identified country, evidence published from 1 January 1980 to 31 March 2018 was retrieved from peer-reviewed and grey literature. Extracted data were cross-checked with in-country representatives to ensure completeness and accuracy.SettingWHO European Region, spanning fifty-three countries.ResultsFifteen countries had a government-endorsed policy on interpretive FOPL. Thirteen of these countries had introduced endorsement logos, while only three labelling systems provided an indicator for unhealthfulness. Common steps were identified in FOPL policy development, including: establishing FOPL as a nutrition policy priority; engaging stakeholders and the public; and collecting formative evidence on which to base the labelling system. Few countries had outlined formal provisions for evaluation of FOPL systems. The HEN report describes seven considerations for the adoption/review of FOPL policies to ensure these achieve the population nutrition aims of FOPL. These considerations relate to supporting consumer use and understanding of the labelling, policy feasibility and credibility, and ensuring policy implementation and accountability.ConclusionsThe HEN report encourages countries to consider FOPL policy that is applied widely across all products and provides negative evaluative judgements, possibly combined with positive indicators. Implementation provisions should drive widespread uptake of the system and allow for formal evaluation of impact.

Abstract:
Background: In 2018, Health Canada, the Federal department responsible for public health, put forward a regulatory proposal to introduce regulations requiring a “High in” front-of-package label (FOPL) on foods that exceed predetermined thresholds for sodium, sugars, or saturated fat. This study evaluated the efficacy of the proposed FOPL as a quick and easy tool for making food choices that support reduction in the intakes of these nutrients. Methods: Consumers (n = 625) of varying health literacy levels (HL) were assigned to control (current labeling with no FOPL) or one of four FOPL designs. They completed six shopping tasks, designed to control for internal motivations. Efficacy was measured with correct product selection and response time (seconds) to make food choices using repeated measures statistical modeling, adjusting for HL, task type, and task order. Eye-tracking and structured interviews were used to gather additional insights about participants’ choices. Results: Overall, FOPL was significantly more effective than current labeling at helping consumers of varying HL levels to identify foods high in nutrients of concern and make healthier food choices. All FOPL were equally effective. Conclusions: “High in” FOPL can be effective at helping Canadians of varying HL levels make more informed food choices in relation to sugars, sodium, and saturated fat.

Abstract:
Proteins of the FGR1 oncogene partner (or FOP) family are found at microtubule organizing centres (MTOCs) including, in flagellate eukaryotes, the centriole or flagellar basal body from which the axoneme extends. We report conservation of FOP family proteins, Tb FOPL and Tb OFD1, in the evolutionarily divergent sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei , showing (in contrast with mammalian cells, where FOP is essential for flagellum assembly) depletion of a trypanosome FOP homologue, Tb FOPL, affects neither axoneme nor flagellum elongation. Instead, Tb FOPL depletion causes catastrophic failure in assembly of a lineage-specific, extra-axonemal structure, the paraflagellar rod (PFR). That depletion of centriolar Tb FOPL causes failure in PFR assembly is surprising because PFR nucleation commences approximately 2 µm distal from the basal body. When over-expressed with a C-terminal myc-epitope, Tb FOPL was also observed at mitotic spindle poles. Little is known about bi-polar spindle assembly during closed trypanosome mitosis, but indication of a possible additional MTOC function for Tb FOPL parallels MTOC localization of FOP-like protein TONNEAU1 in acentriolar plants. More generally, our functional analysis of Tb FOPL emphasizes significant differences in evolutionary cell biology trajectories of FOP-family proteins. We discuss how at the molecular level FOP homologues may contribute to flagellum assembly and function in diverse flagellates.

Abstract:
Background: Front-of-pack-labels (FOPLs) on packaged foods provide essential information to help consumers make informed dietary choices. However, evidence on their effectiveness, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like Kenya, is limited. Objective: This study assessed the effectiveness of three FOPLs in helping consumers identify nutrients of concern in packaged food products and influencing their purchase intention in Kenya. Methods: A total of 2198 shoppers from supermarkets in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, and Garissa were randomized into three groups: Red and Green Octagon label (RG), Red and Green Octagon with icons (RGI), and Black Octagon Warning label (WL). In the control phase, participants were shown unlabeled images of packaged foods, followed by questions. In the experimental phase, the same images were presented with one assigned FOPL, and participants responded again to the same set of questions. Differences in correct identification of nutrients of concern and changes in purchase intention were analyzed using frequency tables and Chi-Square tests, while modified Poisson regression assessed FOPL effectiveness. Results: FOPLs significantly improved correct nutrient identification and reduced the intention to purchase unhealthy foods, with the WL proving most effective. Conclusions: These findings highlight the potential of FOPLs, particularly the WL, as an effective regulatory tool for promoting healthier food choices in Kenya.

Abstract:
Projektet och examinationen är uppdelad i två delar. En reflekterande del och en produktion. Den reflekterande delen handlar om att vi ska få svar på de frågor vi ställde oss innan projektets start. Dessa frågor (se projektplanen) ska vi nu ha ett svar på samt att vi nu ska kritiskt granska vår process samt arbete. Vi måste också kunna svara på frågan om vi uppnådde de mål som vi satte upp i starten av projektet. Var målet, processen, syfte och metod överensstämmande med vår arbete? Detta hoppas vi kunna svara på i denna reflekterande del Vi har gjort en dokumentärfilm riktad mot ungdomar i samarbete med SVT i Växjö. Målet har varit att göra ett så bra arbete att vår film sänds på TV. Vi strävade efter att göra positiv TV som alla kan ta till sig. Vår inriktning under de två sista åren på Medieteknik har varit video, ljud och musikproduktion. Alltså var valet ganska lätt, vi ville göra en film och när vi pratade med SVT i Växjö var de också intresserade att påbörja ett samarbete med oss på Medieteknik. Vi har alltså SVT i Växjö som extern uppdragsgivare, detta faktum har naturligtvis påverkat oss då vi gör en film som kommer att visas på SVT i januari 2004. Denna yttre faktor har gjort oss mer noggranna och mer resultatinriktade. Samarbete med SVT har varit mycket givande och intimt, vi har fått mycket hjälp av Rune Johnsson som är fotograf hos SVT i Växjö. Utan Runes engagemang och framåtanda hade vi inte uppnått detta resultat som vi är väldigt nöjda med. Vår interna handledare, Paul Carlsson, har också varit till stor hjälp, han har stöttat oss och kommit med goda råd när vi kört fast. Det är Paul som kommer att examinera oss Att göra en dokumentär som är tänkt att visas på TV har varit en stor utmaning för oss men vi såg inga hinder som skulle göra att vi misslyckades. Vi har jobbat målmedvetet för att lyckas prestera det bästa, med ett acceptabelt sevärt resultat. Med detta arbete har vi fått offra mycket av vår fritid. Inspelningen har skett mestadels på kvällar och helger. Samtidigt har tre av våra medverkande bott i Växjöområdet så det har även inneburit många resor fram och tillbaks till Växjö. Vi är alla överens om att det har varit värt allt slit. Nu vet vi vilka misstag som vi kommer att göra i framtiden samt hur vi undviker dem.<br>The documentary that we have made is about four youngsters who, for one reason or another, have chosen not to prioritize school. We were already from the start of this examination job, agreeing on making a documentary film in a positive spirit. What we mean is that we wanted to make a film that is focused on a common phenomena that occurs in our society, from a objective angle. That we wanted to tell people that there are other ways to go, than the conventional life at school. At the same time we want to wash away the brand that people who has no higher education are losers, useless and with no future. We managed to find four colourful youngsters who where very different from each other. These girls and boys have all chosen not to prioritize school. Maybe not forever, but they have made a decision to quit, not caring about, or never starting school. So the film is about why they made their decisions and what they are doing instead. We also want to show their social life, their parents and their friend’s reactions. Will they be isolated from the society when they have chosen another lifestyle? Do they have any goals? What are they doing with their new won freedom? We want the viewer to react on one or more of the people in this film, maybe recognize that he or she knows someone that is in the same situation. Another thing that we want the audience to think about is what will happen to these young people in the future. Will they survive or will they become victims of the society? This film is made in co-operation with SVT (Swedish National Television) and will be broadcasted in January 2004. The reason for making a film is that we want to work with film production and everything it involves. Now when the movie is done and we have made all the mistakes that can be done, we have got the experience that is needed to start a new career.

Abstract:
The training of movement procedures to increase the skills of athletes is a fundamental part of competitive sports. A realistic training, supported by technical equipment provides athletes a better success of training and is requested by trainers and training centers all over the world. Especially in winter sports, like luge or bob, a realistic training simulation is not always possible and demands adaptations of specific training procedures. As a part of this article, a new multilayer slide-foil will be presented, which allows athletes an even more realistic training. For this purpose the structure and production process of the foil composite will be shown, as well as results of the tribological behaviour of the foil<br>Das Training von Bewegungsabläufen, zur Steigerung von Fähigkeiten, ist ein fundamentaler Bestandteil im Leistungssport.

Insbesondere in Wintersportarten, wie z. B. Rennrodeln oder Bobfahren, kann dies allerdings nur bedingt realisiert werden und erfordert oftmals Abstriche bei der Trainingsgestaltung. Im Rahmen dieses Beitrags wird daher eine mehrschichtige Verbundfolie vorgestellt, welche den Athleten ein realistischeres Training ermöglichen soll.

Abstract:
Ernest Hemingway wrote to F. Scott Fitzgerald that “The good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life — and one is as good as the other” (305). With that, I created a collection of short stories that analyzes my generation of women’s struggles. Framing the thesis are two stories involving three women, Lindsey, Jenny, and Sarah, “The Generation of Discontent” and “Revisions,” with the characters attempting to sort through love, success, and happiness in society. The piece “The Bachelor” has Amanda torn between her currently successful life and the glamour and sometimes infamy of being on ABC’s reality show The Bachelor. In “Eggs Kennedy Style,” the fine line between delusion and dreams becomes defined in both Nan and Kelley of being one of America’s royal Kennedy family. “Cops and Robbers” shows the inner turmoil of women who do not aspire to be mothers and feel guilty for their aspirations as well asthe resulting resentment when they have to give up their dreams. The ideas of taking your loved one for granted and life goals become the driving aspect of “Flat Tire” where story picks up in the middle of major fight between Nicole and Tommy stemming from him dropping the garter the night before at their friend’s wedding. “Almond Blossoms” between a flashback to Amsterdam with Sam’s Dutch fling Andric and present time suburban Ohio with her finance Kevin showing the conflict of being single compared to being settled. As Fitzgerald said, “An author ought to write for his generation” (ix) and I wrote based on my personal experiences as well as my friends’ tales and tribulations that tell of our generation’s struggle. Giving a voice to the high hopes and resulting discontent I feel is important which models the Modern writers like Fitzgerald’s Gatsby’s green lighted hope for Daisy. I hope to revive a bit of that Modern era in my time though our green light just might be the glow of The Bachelor from the television.

This intimate dialogue can only occur where landscape elements speak a universal language. Revelatory, Allegorical, Cosmological and Vernacular methods of design have traditionally been employed to communicate in the landscape. This project explores the method of Archetypal design as a means to avoid the culturally-dependent, and hence, esoteric language of design and so create an exoteric language more appropriate for civic space.<br>Master of Landscape Architecture

Full text
Abstract:
A review of the main rolling models is conducted to assess their suitability for modelling the foil rolling process. Two such models are Fleck and Johnson's Hertzian model and Fleck, Johnson, Mear and Zhang's Influence Function model. Both of these models are approximated through the use of perturbation methods. Decrease in the computation time resulted when compared with the numerical solution. The Hertzian model was approximated using the ratio of the yield stress of the strip to the plane-strain Young's Modulus of the rolls as the small perturbation parameter. The Influence Function model approximation takes advantage of the solution of the well-known Aerofoil Integral Equation to gain an insight into how the choice of interior boundary points affects the stability of numerical solution of the model's equations. These approximations require less computation than their full models and, in the case of the Hertzian approximation, only introduces a small error in the predictions of roll force roll torque. Hence the Hertzian approximate method is suitable for on-line control. The predictions from the Influence Function approximation underestimates the predictions from the numerical results. Better approximation of the pressure in the plastic reduction regions is the main source of this error.

Afrin, Sabrina. "Thermal performance analysis of ETFE-foil panels and spaces enclosed with ETFE-foil cushion envelope." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2017. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/43977/.

Full text
Abstract:
Ethylene-tetra-fluoro-ethylene (ETFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer. In the form of ETFE-foil it is applied in building envelopes in a single layer or more commonly, as inflatable cushions composed of multiple layers. ETFE-foils are widely used as a lightweight building envelope where high translucency, low structural weight, and complex shape is essential. However, limited research in the field of thermal performance of ETFE-foil panels and spaces enclosed with it instigated this study. Therefore, this study investigated (I) the thermal behaviour of ETFE-foil materials and the thermal performance of spaces enclosed with ETFE cushion roofs, (II) used commercially available thermal simulation software to predict the thermal performance of spaces enclosed with ETFE cushion and glass roofs and compared this with actual monitored behaviour (III) identified strategies to improve the thermal performance of spaces enclosed with ETFE cushion roofs in current and projected climate scenarios; and finally (IV) proposed design recommendations of ETFE-foil panels/cushions as a building fabric components. Material properties were investigated in laboratory based experiments. Further data were collected from two custom built outdoor test-rigs equipped with single-, two- and three-layer ETFE-foil panels. Environmental data were collected from two case study buildings to evaluate the thermal performance of the spaces enclosed with ETFE-foil cushion roofs. In addition, building simulation was conducted using EDSL TAS version 9.3.3.b to further analyse the indoor thermal environment and compare with monitored behaviour. The study identified variable thermal-optical properties of ETFE foils caused by various percentages of fritted area and its pigment density. The results also identified that the thermal environment of the test-rigs was affected by the variations in the surface temperatures of ETFE-foils and the temperature of air volume between multiple ETFE-foils (in case of two and three layer panels) by convective and radiative heat transfer mechanisms. The results from the case study buildings identified that during hot summer days, indoor air temperature and temperature stratification was higher in the atrium space enclosed with three-layer ETFE-foil cushions compared to the space enclosed with two-layer ETFE-foil cushion covered with rain mesh. However, both of the spaces were overheated during the summer of 2015. To develop an accurate simulation model for ETFE cushion roofs, a novel approach of modelling was developed. The simulation model was validated and calibrated by comparing with measured data from test-rigs and case study buildings. A comparison of predicted results of the spaces enclosed with a multi-layer ETFE-foil cushion roof and a glass roof showed that the extent of overheating was high when spaces were enclosed with glass roofs. Among two-and three-layer ETFE-foil cushion and glass roofs, two-layer ETFE-foil cushions with 75% fritting and rain mesh effectively reduced air temperature and cooling load during the peak summer period. The findings of this study will enable designers to select and develop design strategies for applying ETFE-foils in building envelopes on the basis of thermal and optical requirements. The study also suggested to change the view of current design practice that only focused on current conditions; such as the use of ETFE-foils may require more adaptive approach to mitigate overheating problems in projected climate.

Abstract:
Abstract Aluminum foil coatings are applied by adhering a laminated film containing an aluminum foil layer to a steel substrate. Aluminum foil coatings are known to possess better barrier properties and provide better protection to corners (sharp edges) than conventional liquid applied coatings of similar film thickness. A cyclic salt-fog test was used to characterize the corrosion control behavior of various aluminum foil coatings applied to rusted steel. The test data showed that, in addition to controlling corrosion by a barrier mechanism, some of the foil coatings controlled the spread of corrosion at scribes and holidays by a cathodic protection mechanism. Rust creepage rate decreased as foil thickness increased. Most of the foil coatings outperformed the epoxy mastic coating that was used as a comparison. Adhering bare foil directly to a minimally prepared, rusted steel substrate resulted in rapid pitting and perforation of the foil; however pitting did not occur if an intermediate organic layer was present, between the foil and the rusted steel. In the maintenance of minimally prepared steel in a marine atmosphere, a properly designed coating system, containing an aluminum foil layer, would be expected to be significantly more durable than a traditional liquid applied coating of similar film thickness.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) is currently investigating the feasibility of using foul-release coatings to mitigate impacts caused by macro-fouling organisms such as zebra and quagga mussels. Durability of these coatings must be considered as a factor in determining overall life cycle costs. To this end, the Bureau of Reclamation has developed testing protocols to evaluate the durability of foul-release coatings with respect to abrasion, erosion resistance and the ability to overcoat existing equipment. This paper details each testing methodology and presents results. The tests show a wide variation in the durability of commercially available foul-release coatings. In order to estimate the expected product life for specific service environments, the results are compared to several benchmark coatings which have an extensive service history within Reclamation. These results show that silicone coatings have the potential to work under certain conditions where floating debris is not present. Silicone epoxy and polyurethane systems are more durable but less resistant to erosion damage caused by entrained particulates such as sand. None of the coating systems are recommend as an overcoat material for coal tar enamel.

Full text
Abstract:
To meet the challenging demands for high performance, affordable compliant foil bearings, a novel compliant support element has been developed. This recently patented, novel support element uses a multidimensional array of multiple, formed, cantilever “wing foil” tabs. The wing foil bearing has all the features required to achieve state of the art performance (Gen III for radial bearings). This paper describes two radial foil beings using the wing foil and the unique design features. Test data for a 31.75 mm diameter bearing operating in air and in steam up to 42 krpm are presented to demonstrate the performance of this bearing. It is shown to have low subsynchronous vibration and reasonable damping through rigid shaft critical speeds.

Abstract:
In previous work it was shown that the logic ALC^ME , which extends the description logic (DL) ALC with probabilistic conditionals, has domain-lifted inference. Here, we extend this result from the base logic ALC to two logics that can count, the two-variable fragment C2 of first-order logic (FOL) with counting quantifiers, and the DL ALCSCC, which is not a fragment of FOL. As an auxiliary result, we prove that model counting in ALCSCC can be realized in a domain-liftable way.
