Abstract:

The electromagnetic field (EMF) is present in the environment throughout the world and encompasses both natural and human-made sources of electromagnetic fields. It has been shown that EMF influences a variety of biological systems, including the behavioural responses of both vertebrates and invertebrates. As such, determining the effects of the EMF on the ecosystem in detail may be important for understanding the ecology and biology of organisms, particularly those, such as ticks, that are important in disease transmission. Our main goal was to determine if the tick, Dermacentor reticulatus, interacts with the EMF. An experimental behavioural test of tick sensitivity to radio frequency power radiation was performed under laboratory conditions. Tests were performed in an electromagnetic compatibility laboratory in a radio frequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) anechoic chamber. Ticks were irradiated using a Double-Ridged Waveguide Horn Antenna with 900 MHz RF-EMF. The applied radio-frequency power was tuned below the proposed limit for public exposure to mobile phone base stations. We found that exposure induces an immediate tick locomotor response manifested either in a previously unreported jerking movement of the whole body or in jerking of the first pair of legs. Overall, ticks exhibited significantly greater movement in the presence of the RF-EMF. Significant sex differences relative to RF-EMF exposure were observed in both response variables. In the presence of RF-EMF, body jerking by females was greater than in males and vice versa for leg jerks. This study represents the first experimental evidence of a behavioural response of D. reticulatus ticks to exposure to RF-EMF.

Abstract:

The impact caused by clutch engagement or disengagement leads to vehicle jerking problem. To solve the jerking vibration, the model of the power train and the process of the clutch engagement is built up, and the numerical relations between jerking vibration and key factors (such as the stiffness of clutch disc, the stiffness and damper of side shaft and flywheel) are established, the validity of the model is verified by comparing simulation results and results of measurement, finally the key factors influencing the vibration amplitude and frequency are identified by vehicle tests.

Abstract:

Interactions between microtubules and filamentous actin (F-actin) are crucial for many cellular processes, including cell locomotion and cytokinesis, but are poorly understood. To define the basic principles governing microtubule/F-actin interactions, we used dual-wavelength digital fluorescence and fluorescent speckle microscopy to analyze microtubules and F-actin labeled with spectrally distinct fluorophores in interphase Xenopus egg extracts. In the absence of microtubules, networks of F-actin bundles zippered together or exhibited serpentine gliding along the coverslip. When microtubules were nucleated from Xenopus sperm centrosomes, they were released and translocated away from the aster center. In the presence of microtubules, F-actin exhibited two distinct, microtubule-dependent motilities: rapid (∼250–300 nm/s) jerking and slow (∼50 nm/s), straight gliding. Microtubules remodeled the F-actin network, as F-actin jerking caused centrifugal clearing of F-actin from around aster centers. F-actin jerking occurred when F-actin bound to motile microtubules powered by cytoplasmic dynein. F-actin straight gliding occurred when F-actin bundles translocated along the microtubule lattice. These interactions required Xenopus cytosolic factors. Localization of myosin-II to F-actin suggested it may power F-actin zippering, while localization of myosin-V on microtubules suggested it could mediate interactions between microtubules and F-actin. We examine current models for cytokinesis and cell motility in light of these findings.

Abstract:

Background: For thousands of years, Nigella sativa has been used in many countries as a spice as well as a protective and curative remedy for numerous health disorders. Nigella sativa oil (NSO) suppressed pain in animal models.Objective: To assess the effects of Nigella sativa oil on pain after single administration with three increasing doses in rat models.Methods: This experimental study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, from March 2016 to February 2017. For this, 20 (twenty) Long Evans rats (200±20) of both sexes were divided into control ( 10 ml/kg of 1% solution of Tween 20) and experimental groups (NSO 0.5, with 0.5 ml/ kg NSO; NSO 1, with 1 ml/kg NSO; NSO 1.5, with 1.5 ml/kg NSO) with 5 rats in each group.. To assess nociceptive pain, central analgesic system and inflammatory pain ,early phase (1st-5th minutes); inter phase (6th-15th minutes) and on late phase (16th-60th minutes) of formalin test respectively were observed. All the agents were given intraperitoneally in a single dose just one hour before the formalin test. In all phases, total frequency of jerking and total duration of flexing and licking of right hind paw were counted after administration of subcutaneous formalin (50 µL, 2.5%) injection. Statistical analysis was done by ANOVA, followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test.Results: In early phase, NSO significantly reduced the jerking (p ≤0.001, in all doses) and flexing and licking (p≤0.001, in higher 2 doses). In interphase, jerking was significantly (p ≤ 0.01) lowered after 1.5 ml/kg of NSO but flexing and licking were significantly lowered by at all 3 doses (p ≤0.05, p ≤0.001, p ≤0.001,). In addition, in late phase jerking and flexing and licking were reduced by higher 2 doses (p ≤0.001, ) and all 3 doses respectively (p ≤0.001, in all doses).Conclusion: From this study, it may be concluded that, NSO possess analgesic effect and higher two doses were more effective than lower doses.J Bangladesh Soc Physiol. 2018, June; 13(1): 1-7

Abstract:

Geomagnetic jerks, or secular variation impulses, are abrupt changes in the slope of the first time derivative of the Earth's magnetic field. These changes occur on time scales of the order of a year. It has been demonstrated that the jerks might be more singular than previously supposed; their """"regularity"""" is closer to 1.5 than to 2. Although discovered over 30 years ago, geomagnetic jerks remain poorly understood. Their origin probably lies in the magnetohydrodynamics that is responsible for the maintenance of the Earth's magnetic field produced within the Earth's liquid and convecting core (through a so-called geo-dynamo process). A wavelet tool was programmed in MATLAB and a wavelet analysis applied to detect and characterize singular events, or jerks, in the time series made of monthly mean values of the east component of the geomagnetic field from 45 selected worldwide observatories. The analysis was first performed on various synthetic series made up of a """"main"""" signal of smooth variation intervals separated by singular events, a white noise and an """"external"""" signal made up of the sum of a few harmonic signals. Conditions, in which the singular events could be clearly isolated and their associated """"regularities"""" recovered, are highlighted. Geomagnetic jerks were detected globally in 1969, 1978, 1991 and 1999. Furthermore, geomagnetic jerks are also thought to have also occurred in 1901, 1913 and 1925, but due to the small number of observatories with long enough records to allow for detection during this period, their extent is unclear. Two further geomagnetic jerks were found to have occurred around 1937 and 1952, but due to these events not being detected by all the observatories with records covering this period, these events might not be of the same extent or origin. The results of the geomagnetic jerks detected here and the phase jumps detected in the Chandler wobble are compared and the remarkable coincidence highlighted. The spatio-temporal behaviour of jerks, for example where jerks arrive in the northern hemisphere before the southern hemisphere, is explored. Using k-means clustering, an antipodal relationship is proposed between regional trends in the time delay in the detection of geomagnetic jerks at the surface of the Earth. It is possible that this finding may shed some new light on the origin of geomagnetic jerks. The wavelet analysis was also used to investigate whether the nature of geomagnetic jerks could be classified into one of the following three categories: geomagnetic jerks are the result of some instability starting at the time of the jerk; geomagnetic jerks are the result of some continuous oscillations; that geomagnetic jerks possibly reflect a process ending at the time of the jerk. A startling pattern emerged that suggested that the 1969 jerk corresponded to an event starting at that time, the 1978 jerk corresponding to an event ending at that time, and lastly an event again starting in 1990. This implied that the 1969 and 1978 jerks might have been the result of a common phenomenon starting in 1969 and ending almost a decade later in 1978.

Abstract:

Grâce au travail des observateurs, nous avons accès à de longues séries de données géophysiques régulièrement échantillonnées (e. G. Paramètres de rotation de la Terre ou champ magnétique en un observatoire). Ces séries sont librement accéssibles depuis fort longtemps et cependant, il est encore possible, à l'aide de méthodes d'analyse de signaux parfois assez simples, d'en tirer de nouvelles informations. Ce manuscrit se décompose en deux parties principales. Dans la première partie, consacrée au lien entre les jerks (ou secousses) géomagnétiques et la rotation de la Terre, nous montrons que l'occurrence des jerks est corrélée avec celle de sauts de phase dans l'oscillation de Chandler. Un modèle cinématique de jerk nous permet de montrer que le couple nécessaire pour générer de tels sauts de phase est compatible avec les observations magnétiques. Une telle corrélation induit des contraintes fortes sur la dynamique du noyau et sur l'efficacité du couplage noyau-manteau. Dans la seconde partie, nous caractérisons l'agitation d'un signal à l'aide d'une méthode non-linéaire : la dérivée absolue moyenne. Cet outil, appliqué à la longueur du jour, permet de déterminer avec précision le coefficient de réponse zonale associé à la marée luni-solaire de période 13,63 jours. Appliqué aux séries magnétiques enregistrées dans une quarantaine d'observatoires répartis à la surface du globe, il permet d'étudier les caractéristiques des variations irrégulières du champ externe. Ce champ de variations se sépare en une fonction d'activité universelle et en un champ de vecteur immuable indiquant une géométrie essentiellement dipolaire associée à l'anneau de courant. Un chapitre est enfin consacré à l'étude de la préditibilité des orages magnétiques

Abstract:

As active safety systems installed in vehicles become more common and more sophisticated, a concise method of testing them in conditions as close to real risk situations as possible becomes necessary. This study looks at the possibilities of developing use cases, using video recordings of real risk situations, obtained through naturalistic driving studies. The concept of conflicts is explored as a substitute to actual accidents. A method of finding conflicts in a large data material from looking at the acceleration signal and its derivative, referred to as jerk is also sought. These possibilities are tried on material from a previously conducted naturalistic driving study. The results are an improvement in the ability to find conflict situations automatically, and a suggestion to how use cases can be produced from video recordings of conflicts obtained through naturalistic driving studies. The DREAM framework is used and modified in order to aid with data collection and interpretation.

Abstract:

Dans ce mémoire nous présentons une série d'études dont le double objectif est de mieux comprendre les phénomènes qui gouvernent l'évolution du champ magnétique principal de la Terre, et d'améliorer notre capacité actuelle à en prédire l'évolution à court terme. Pour cela, nous réalisons d'abord quelques inversions de la Variation Séculaire (VS) pour plusieurs époques et calculons une première estimation de l'accélération de l'écoulement à partir d'écoulements successifs. Ces calculs suggèrent que les écoulements qui génèrent la VS ne sont pas stationnaires. Nous montrons ensuite comment calculer simultanément ces écoulements et leur accélération pour une époque donnée, si le champ ainsi que sa première et seconde dérivées temporelles (la VS et l'accélération séculaire(AS)) sont connues. Ceci nous permet de montrer sans ambiguïté qu'un écoulement stationnaire ne peut pas rendre compte de la AS observée. Nous considérons ensuite la possibilité d'améliorer la prévision à court terme du champ, actuellement basée sur une extrapolation linéaire, dans le cadre du modèle "International Geomagnetic Reference Field" (IGRF), en utilisant une méthode basée sur un écoulement uniformément accélérée. Nous considérons aussi la possibilité d'augmenter la résolution spatiale de la VS prédictive actuellement utilisée par l'IGRF. De ces études, nous concluons que le principal obstacle à la prédiction à court terme du champ vient des changements brusques de la AS (jerks). Nous étudions la nature des changements d'accélération rendant compte du `jerk' de 2003. Nous montrons que ce changement n'est hélas pas compatible avec un mécanisme simple tel que les oscillations de torsion
This thesis reports on a series of investigations directed towards the dual goal of improving our understanding of what drives the time evolution of the Earth's main magnetic field, and of improving our current ability to predict its short-term behavior. For that we first perform core flow inversions for several epochs and compute first estimates of the flow acceleration by computing differences between successive flows. These first results suggest that the flow generating the Secular Variation (SV) is not stationary. Next, we show how both the core flow and core flow acceleration can be computed simultaneously at any given epoch, if the field and its first and second time derivatives (the SV and the Secular Acceleration (SA)) are known. This allows us to unambiguously show that no stationary flow can account for the observed SA. Based on those results, we consider the possibility of improving on the short-term prediction of the field based on a linear extrapolation currently used by the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) by using a method based on a steadily accelerated flow. Then we independently consider the possibility of increasing the spatial resolution of the predictive SV model currently used by IGRF. From all of the above, we conclude that the main limitation to shortterm predictions of the field is the occurrence of sudden changes in the SA (geomagnetic jerks). We thus investigate the type of core ow acceleration changes that are needed to account for those jerks and focus on the 2003 ge

In order to study the dynamics of the Earth's outer core, we compute core surface flows from observations of the main magnetic field. The relevance of these computations is confirmed by the similarities of the flows obtained with two independent methods and the results of different synthetic tests. Two different kind of observations are used : ground-based observations for the time period 1590-1990 and recent high-resolution satellite observations. We thus obtain a time series of the historical flows as well as a detailed model of the present flow. The evaluation of errors associated to these flows enable us to identify their reliable features. The velocity fields we obtain are in good agreement with different phenomena appearing in 3D-simulations of core dynamics. We also show that geomagnetic jerks have an explicit signature in core surface dynamics. In the last chapter, a variational data assimilation method for the study of the Earth's core is introduced

Abstract:

Despite heightened efforts to increase gender parity, organizations in the technology industry are struggling to implement and enact Gender Diversity and Inclusion policies (GDIPs). This purpose of this dissertation was to enhance understandings of obstacles to policy enactment and unearth ways in which organizations can create more equitable work environments. Specifically, this project investigated how members of technology organizations construct knowledge about Gender Diversity and Inclusion policies through their personal experiences, attitudes and beliefs, and interactions with others within and external to their organization. Utilizing a critical-interpretivist and intersectional feminism as ontological and epistemological frameworks, this dissertation study draws from structurating activity theory (SAT; Canary, 2010) and theories of organizational identification (Scott, 2007) to explore issues of policy knowledge construction, implementation, and enactment. Completed in two phases,this dissertation employed a mixed-methods design. Phase One used DeVellis’ (2017) framework to develop a Gender Diversity and Inclusion policy attitude scale (GDIPAS) to evaluate how personal opinions about GDIPs and larger constructs like sexism, feminism, identification, and social desirability contribute to the policy knowledge construction process. Phase Two used a parallel analysis design to quantitatively (i.e., surveys) and qualitatively (i.e., interviews) investigate how members of tech-based organizations construct GDIP knowledge through intra- and extra-organizational interactions, as well as personal beliefs and attitudes (Teddlie & Tashakkori, 2009). Phase One resulted in five-factors underlying Gender Diversity and Inclusion policy attitude: perception of policy abuse, policy familiarity, perception of workforce gender inequity, policy support, and perception of organizational gender diversity. Results from Phase Two indicated that members of technology organizations interact within and across activity systems to construct knowledge about GDIPs through structural contradictions that (re)produce barriers to policy implementation and enactment.This project contributed to organizational communication theory by investigating the role of organizational identification in the policy knowledge construction process. Further, this dissertation extended SAT by identifying two new structural contradictions and a primary system-level contradiction, and by centralizing power in the investigation of policy knowledge construction. Methodologically, this dissertation offers a new policy attitude measure for scholars and practitioners. Finally, results of this project provide practical insights into barriers to policy implementation and enactment.

Abstract:

Shaken Baby Syndrome is a collection of injuries that have been associated with the violent shaking of an infant or small child. These injuries can then lead to serious brain damage or even death. It is therefore important to identify the exact mechanism that leads from the shaking to the observed injuries, but little experimental work has been done in this area. The first part of this study was designed to identify if a correlation exists between the physical characteristics of a person shaking a crash test dummy (CRABI) and the resulting accelerations and jerks associated with the motion of the dummy’s head. This was done by placing a three axis accelerometer in the head and two in the body (one in the chest and one in the groin) of a median twelve month old male dummy to determine the acceleration of the head and body. In particular, the relative angular acceleration and jerk of the head relative to the body was determined, since it was felt to be a better predictor of brain damage than would be the absolute linear acceleration of the head. Similar work has been done in the past; however that study only considered the absolute acceleration of the head, and in only one direction. Since the present study allows the attitude of the head to be determined, a true relative angular acceleration of the head relative to the body was found. Consequently, it was found that no strong correlation existed between the absolute linear acceleration and any body characteristic, however a correlation (R2) of 0.6 was found to exist between the body weight of the shaker and the maximum angular jerk of the dummy’s head relative to its body, as compared to only a correlation of 0.5 when the shaker’s body weight was compared to the absolute linear acceleration of the head. A two dimensional dynamic simulation was also developed that modelled the behavior of a child crash test dummy. The model included the legs, torso, and head of the dummy, and the elastic behavior of the neck. The model was created to allow the associated accelerations and jerks to be determined for inputs of various magnitude and temporal profiles. The model was then validated by comparing the simulation results to the test results obtained from the experimental study described above.

Abstract:

Input shaping and command shaping are important techniques in reducing residual vibrations in rest-to-rest maneuvers. Jerks in these shapers can reduce the life time for the crane motors and electronic boards. In this work, a totally smooth command shaper with an independent adjustable maneuvering time is introduced to eliminate residual vibration in multimode system. The proposed technique is solved analytically and simulated numerically through several examples. Furthermore, the proposed technique requires only the resonant frequency of the system to produce a control profile. The results through several examples show a great controller performance. It is important to mention that the proposed controller can be applied on any discretized multi-degree-of-freedom system.

Abstract:

Abstract The dynamics of a class of translating media with an arbitrarily varying length is investigated. The tension in the media arising from their longitudinal accelerations is incorporated. The dynamic stability of the continuous media relative to the inertial and moving coodinate systems is studied from the energy standpoint. The exact expressions for the rates of change of energies of the media are derived and interpreted from both the control volume and system viewpoints. The monotonic behavior of the energy of vibration of the translating media during extrusion and retraction is affected by their jerks rather than accelerations. Examples including a robotic arm through a prismatic joint and an elevator hoist cable in a high rise building validate the analysis. In particular, the results explain an inherent “unstable shortening cable behavior” in elevator industry.

Abstract:

Due to the direct connection between the engine and the compound power split hybrid transmission (CPSHT) in hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), engine ripple torque (ERT) can result in obvious jerks in engine starting process (ESP). In order to improve the riding comfort, two wet clutches are mounted in this novel CPSHT. This research developed a new coordinated control strategy and its effectiveness was verified in simulation. Firstly, the mechanical and hydraulic parts of the CPSHT were introduced, and the riding comfort problem during ESP in primary design was illustrated. Secondly, the dynamic plant model including ERT, driveline model and clutch torque was deduced. Thirdly, a coordinated control strategy was designed to determine the target engine torque, motor torque, clutch torque and the moment of fuel injection. A Kalman filter based clutch torque estimator was applied with the help of electric motors information. The simulation result indicates that proposed coordinated control strategy can indeed suppress vehicle jerk and improve the riding comfort in ESP.
