Abstract:
A review of material flow analysis (MFA) tools, comparison of case studies and analysis of approximately 20 MFA tools (static, semi-empirical models) are performed. The evaluation of the quantification procedures revealed several deficits in the approaches. The following principal complications for a reliable quantification of inputs from the urban water system are identified: (1) frequently insufficient data for urban system model validation (e.g. combined sewer overflow (CSO) discharges); (2) the necessity for additionally quantifying diffuse sources in order to verify modelling results at basin scale, where both input pathways occur, and (3) the contradictions arising when describing the highly dynamic urban system with the help of static MFA models. However, a wise selection of appropriate calculation procedures with regard to the concrete systems characteristics and available data can minimize the model deviations significantly. Criteria and suggestions for designing adapted quantification procedures are given.

Abstract:
Multifunctional agriculture (MFA) has attracted increased attention from academics and policymakers in recent years. Academic researchers have utilised various approaches to assess and measure the multifunctionality of agriculture and rural landscapes. This paper outlines the nature of MFA and key supporting policies, before reviewing the applied research approaches, drawing primarily from the European Union and China where specific policies on MFA have been implemented to support rural development and promote sustainable rural communities. Four distinct types of valuation of modern MFA are recognised: economic, biophysical, socio-cultural, and holistic. Following a search of both the recent and older MFA literature, evaluations of the strengths and weaknesses of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods applications are provided using examples from a range of recent studies. The review illustrates the diversity of approaches to measure MFA. While noting that many studies operate at a landscape scale, the challenge remains that the lack of commonality in the research approaches applied means it is difficult to provide effective comparisons between studies or to compare findings. A future research agenda will need to emphasise the need for more consideration of the roles of MFA research to support decision-makers, especially policy makers, but also farmers who largely make decisions for individual farms but, if considered collectively, can transform production systems at a landscape scale.

Abstract:
Mobile Commerce activities will not expand without the proper support of mobile financial applications (MFA), including mobile banking, mobile brokerage service, mobile money transfer, and mobile micro-payments. MFA is expected to have a great impact on the future of mobile commerce industries and makes purchasing activities more flexible and convenient, also creating new markets. However, despite the advent of these MFA technologies and the availability of various mobile services, the adoption of mobile financial applications across the globe is still relatively low. In this regard, this study investigates the role of technology anxiety (TA) in the adoption of MFA and resolves the discrepancy between the apparent interest in and low adoption of MFA. The results of a broad survey of 595 mobile payment users in Korea indicate TA negatively moderates the influence of intention on actual usage in addition to the direct negative influence on intention to use MFA. Also, the author found that TA significantly differs depending on the frequency of use and gender. However, contrary to a common notion that older people are more anxious in context to new technologies, TA has been found to be higher among young people.

Abstract:
Context: Several prenatal and postnatal factors may influence Maternal-Fetal-Attachment (MFA). Few local types of research addressed the relation between MFA and maternal self-efficacy.
 Aim: To assess the relation between pregnant women's self-efficacy and their MFA.
 Methods: The study was carried out at the Specialized Maternity Hospital in Port-Said, Egypt, using a cross-sectional analytic study design on a sample of 240 pregnant women attending the setting for follow-up singleton normal pregnancy. The data were collected using a structured interview questionnaire with two standard scales, namely the Maternal Self-Efficacy Scale and Maternal-Fetal Attachment (MFA) Scale. The fieldwork lasted from December 2019 to April 2020.
 Results: Women ages ranged between 17 and 42 years, and 50% were primigravida. The self-efficacy scores had a wide range (1.3-5.0), with a median of 2.90 from a maximum of 5.00. The median MFA score was 3.59 from a maximum of 5.00. A significant positive correlation was found between self-efficacy and MFA scores (r=0.197). In multivariate analysis, the duration of marriage and income were significant positive predictors of self-efficacy score, while age and previous abortions were significant negative predictors. As an MFA score, the level of education, husband age, planned pregnancy, and self-efficacy score was its positive predictors.
 Conclusion: Pregnant women’s self-efficacy has a positive influence on their prenatal MFA. Therefore, increasing pregnant women’s self-efficacy through training and support is highly recommended during antenatal care (ANC) visits.

Abstract:
Recent years have seen the migration of Ministries of Foreign Affairs (MFAs) to social media in a practice referred to as digital diplomacy. Social media enable MFAs to craft frames so as to influence audiences’ perception of foreign affairs. Such framing is especially relevant during times of war as states seek to legitimize their policies. Notably, given that social media are inherently visual platforms, MFAs are now visual narrators. Few studies to date have extended the reach of framing theory to that of digital diplomacy during conflict. This study addresses this gap by analysing 795 tweets published by the Israeli MFA during the 2014 Gaza War. The authors’ analysis demonstrates that the Israeli MFA crafted 14 linguistic frames that were used to legitimize Israel’s policies. Notably, the MFA used images to support these frames and it is through images that the linguistic frames were made to resonate with Israeli strategic narratives. The authors pay attention to how images published by the Israeli MFA constitute three visual tropes and highlight how images function to augment frames (which focus on the present) to broader narratives that involve the past, present and future. Here, they explore how images invoke the past to illuminate the present and future, and create a shared identity in the context of the Gaza War.

Abstract:
One of the major worries vis-à-vis the phasing out of the multifiber arrangements (MFA)/agreement on textile and clothing (ATC) in 2005 was that the textile and apparel (T&A) production would shift from the developed to the developing countries and have significant impacts on particularly the female workers, as apparel is a female intensive sector in the world. We explore the effect of MFA/ATC on female laborer by examining the predictions of the theoretical model of Robertson and Trigueros-Argüello in the case of Pakistan. It predicts, based on the assumption that the T&A sector is female intensive, such that an adverse (beneficial) shock to product price will be transformed into a comparative decline (rise) in the T&A wages relative to other sectors in the short run (SR) and a relative drop in wages of female workers compared with wages of male workers across all sectors in the long-run (LR). Our empirical findings of the post-MFA/ATC variations support the predictions of the theoretical model.

Abstract:
Our earlier studies on Acer have shown morphological and chemical differences between two fiber types. Our new research applies the soft-rot cavity method using the soft-rot fungus Chaetomium globosum to measure the microfibril angle (MFA) in these two fiber types in fifteen species of Acer (maple). Microfibril angles in fiber type 1 were significantly larger than those in fiber type 2. The greatest difference (11.6°) was noted in radial sections of Acer floridanum, in which the average MFA (n =100) obtained from soft-rot cavities for fiber type 1 was 23.3 degrees (95 % C.I. ±1.4°) and for fiber type 2 11.7 degrees (95 % C.I. ±1.2°). The second greatest difference (10.0°) was in Acer nigrum, where the average MFA for type 1 was 16.4 degrees (95 % C.I. ±1.07°) and for type 2 6.4 degrees (95 % C.I. ± 0.64°). When transverse sections were examined with polarized light, areas of fiber type 1 were darker (less birefringent) than those of type 2, which indicates that the MFA of the two cell types differs. After four weeks of exposure to C. globosum the fibers of type 1 were more intensely attacked by the fungus than were the fibers of type 2, suggesting a difference in cell wall chemistry. Fluorescence spectra of the two types of fibers support that observation. Differences in MFA supplement the differences in morphology and chemistry and demonstrate that for Acer species the two fiber types are fundamentally different. These two types of fiber differ in the distribution of their pits. In type 1 the pits are concentrated mainly toward the center of the fiber while in type 2 the pits are distributed along the fiber length.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Many studies support the hypothesis that pregnancy-related anxiety (PRA) is strongly linked to postpartum depression, preterm births, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction, pregnancy complications, and negative infant outcomes. PRA has also been associated with mother-fetal bond during pregnancy that a special relationship between the mother and infant and growth beyond before the infant is born. Although extensive studies on PRA and maternal-fetal attachment (MFA) have been carried out, little attention on these issues is done in the Indonesian context. AIM: To fill such a gap, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between maternal PRA and MFA. METHODS: Expectant mothers who visit their antenatal care in the primary health community services at Yogyakarta participated in this study. They were recruited using a purposive sampling technique based on the criteria: (a) The 1st time pregnancy, (b) in the late stage of pregnancy, (c) have no complication, (d) mother at any age range, and (e) mother at any education level. G-power 3.1.9.2 with effect size 0.15 has used to determine the number of samples, 84 people. Statistical analysis Pearson correlation has been applied and calculates the t relationship between two variables. General linier model analysis conducted the contribution of demographic variables to PRA and MFA. RESULTS: There is a significant relationship between maternal anxiety during pregnancy and MFA (p < 0.001) and a significant correlation between PRA and maternal age. However, there were no correlation between MFA and demographic variables. IMPLICATION FOR PRACTICE: Findings study provides the crucial information as the new approach to enhance the quality of care of mother’s and infant’s health during pregnancy as well as to promote maternal mental health.

Full text
Abstract:
The effect of safflower oil supplement (200 mL/day) on voluntary feed intake and fatty acid composition of plasma, blood platelets, subcutaneous adipose tissue, and M. longissimus dorsi muscle was studied in Brahman steers consuming a low quality hay. The initial mean liveweight (LW) of the steers was 197 kg. Mean LW gain over 50 days was 20 kg for all steers, but voluntary feed intake (5.63 kg/day) was reduced by 1.02 kg/day with safflower oil. Supplementation increased the plasma concentrations of unsaturated fatty acids, indicating a less complete hydrogenation of dietary safflower oil than of hay by rumen microorganisms. Safflower oil altered the fatty acid (FA) profiles of platelet and muscle phospholipids. with increases in the proportions of monounsaturated acids (MFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PFA) and associated decreases in the proportions of saturated fatty acids (SFA). The neutral lipids of adipose tissue consisted of 60% SFA and 38% MFA in steers fed hay alone, compared with 53% SFA and 45% MFA in supplemented steers. Safflower oil had no effect on the total fat content of muscle; the concentration of PFA was not significantly altered, but SFA decreased 17% in parallel with a 23% increase in MFA. The results support proposals that dietary oil supplements may be used to reduce forage intake during dry season or drought, to conserve body protein and to modify the FA composition of meat phospholipids which may, in turn, influence meat quality of ruminants consuming low quality roughage diets.

Abstract:
The purpose of this phenomenographical case study is to explore the ways in which a group of MFA students conceive of their learning as they are enmeshed within an MFA community. The research follows along two guiding research questions: 1) What does artistic learning involve for graduate students in an MFA community? 2) How is one's artistic practice shaped by one's active participation in an MFA community? The findings of this study have been presented as lines of artistic learning and help to show the various conceptions that MFA students have of their learning as artists while in an MFA program of study. Ultimately, it is in better understanding one's lines of artistic learning that MFA students can be better supported in their journeying to become professional, practicing artists.

Abstract:
Many UK MBA programmes adopt a collaborative approach to the Harvard style of experiential case based learning. Within such programmes there is widespread use of computers but it is not clear how this improves student learning. Research on computer support of collaborative learning in other disciplines is of limited applicability because of the dual role of student as learner and as expert. In management education such research has mainly focused on technology. Within this context this exploratory research seeks to establish how the actual use of computers in the collaborative study of cases within MBA programmes affects the efficiency and effectiveness of the learning process. Three core courses from well-respected MBA programmes are studied in detail. Student attitudes are investigated using an established instrument and an open-ended questionnaire. In each course student behaviour is observed by studying one aspect of the course in which computers are being used. Data is collected through videos, participant observation and the capture of online conferences. The three MBA programmes have comparable core curricula and computer rich environments. Delivery modes are full-time, part-time and distance so they cover a wide spectrum of the MBA student population in the UK. Six propositions arise from the investigations of which four are established by this research. These show that UK MBA students are enthusiastic about computers and believe in their ability to use them competently. Most students do use computers extensively at all stages of collaborative case based learning. However there is a marked dissonance between their attitude and actual use. If this dissonance is addressed students can improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of their learning through using computers.

Abstract:
Thesis (M. Sc. (Chemistry)) -- University of Limpopo, 2016<br>In this study, the use of synthetic hierarchical MFI zeolites as supports for palladium hydrocracking catalysts was investigated. Hierarchical zeolites were synthesised through two different routes, viz., (i) the indirect and (ii) direct routes. In (i) pristine ZSM-5 zeolites with different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios (SARs) were synthesised hydrothermally using tetrapropylammonium bromide as structure-directing agent (SDA), followed by a brief desilication of its calcined form in 0.2 M NaOH solution at 65 °C for 0.5 h. Procedure (ii) involved prior synthesis of three polyquaternary ammonium surfactants (containing 2 - 4 ammonium centres), followed by their use as SDAs in the hydrothermal synthesis of hierarchical MFI zeolites. The resulting materials were characterised by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and N2 adsorption isotherms (including BET surface area measurements). Successful synthesis of different classes of the hierarchical MFI zeolites was confirmed by XRD patterns, while successful synthesis of polyquaternary ammonium surfactants was confirmed by both their 1H NMR spectra and their ability to direct the MFI structure. On the basis of IR, peak intensities in the OH region between 3500 and 3800 cm-1, the surfactant-templated zeolites were inferred to be more acidic than zeolites prepared through the desilication route. Significant changes in crystal morphology were observed upon desilication of ZSM-5(50), while the ZSM-5(77) and ZSM-5(100) retained their agglomerated morphology upon a similar treatment. The micrograph pristine of ZSM-5(50) showed a predominant morphology of large and small spheroids, together with some ill-defined cubic shapes. After desilication, the zeolite did not retain the original morphology entirely, showing hexagonal prismatic crystals with twinning occurring in other areas and large spheroids “hatching” to reveal their contents upon treatment. Desilicated zeolites exhibited improved textural properties (i.e., increased SBET, pore volumes and pore diameters) and minor structural readjustments compared to their pristine counterparts. Textural properties of surfactant-templated zeolites were superior to those of desilicated zeolites, and improved with increasing number of quaternary ammonium centres in the surfactant template. These materials were generally more crystalline than the conventional zeolites. Hydrocracking catalysts containing 0.9 wt.% Pd loading on different MFI supports were prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method. The n- v hexadecane hydrocracking conditions used were typical of LTFT process (i.e., Temperature = 215 - 310 °C, WHSV = 1 h-1, Pressure = 20 bar, in addition to the H2 /n-C16 ratio of 10). The catalytic activity in all catalyst systems increased with increasing reactor temperature and displayed C4/C12 ratios ≠ 1, evidence of the occurrence of secondary cracking (i.e., a non-ideal hydrocracking behaviour). This was also supported by the shapes of their product distribution profiles, which showed dominant C3 - C7 n-paraffins. Co-feeding H2O with n-C16 into the reactor was found to be detrimental to n-C16 conversion, but promoted the selectivity to iso-paraffins in the product spectrum. Simultaneous introduction of CO and H2O aggravated secondary cracking. Amongst the pristine ZSM-5 zeolite-based catalysts, Pd/P-ZSM-5(77) showed the best catalytic performance. Upon desilication, the performance order changed to favour Pd/D-ZSM-5(50*). For the surfactant-templated supports, Pd/HSZ(N4) showed the most superior hydrocracking performance. Comparison of catalytic activities of the best performing catalyst systems derived from the conventional and surfactant-templated zeolites in the hydrocracking of n-hexadecane, follow the order Pd/D-ZSM-5(50*) > Pd/P-ZSM-5(77) > Pd/HSZ(N4). That is, the pristine and desilicated zeolite-based catalysts performed better than their surfactant-templated zeolite-based counterparts. Therefore, the post-synthesis generation of mesoporosity through desilicating ZSM-5 with a SAR of 50 has proven beneficial for the resulting catalyst system. One of the possible reasons for the relatively inferior hydrocracking performance of the Pd/HSZ(N4) catalyst may be the aluminium-richness of the support (SAR = 40) compared to the conventional ZSM-5-based supports. In summary, catalysts Pd/D-ZSM-5(50*), Pd/P-ZSM-5(77) and Pd/HSZ(N4) are promising for diesel-selective catalysis and need further refinements and exploration.

Abstract:
<p>Purpose: Although under the last decade there has been increased interest in management of project-based teams and numerous examples of such relationships exist, relatively little is known about “the dynamics of shorter relationships”. Management of communication between partners involved in short-term project-based relationships and the ways, in which multiparty value is created as a result, form a task for important and necessary research in marketing theory and practice. This study aims to define whether there exists a positive relationship between management activities that can influence the communication environment within project-based groups and effectiveness of collaboration between participants.</p><p>Research question: In what role management incentives can positively influence communication and collaboration within a network of the external parties involved in a project?</p><p>Approach: The research design for this study includes a literature review and a longitudinal observational case study. The aim was drawing on and extending important ideas of research on organizational management of project-based teams. On the basis of literature review aspects that have the most influential impact on communication within project-based networks are organized in a integrative framework that gives an image of factors influencing relationships in project-based teams. The theoretical model is proved through a qualitative study of project-based teams performance. Data was collected through the use of meetings observations, email interviewing of participants and informal interviews.</p><p>Findings: Although sensemaking and relational exchanges are distinct concepts in the extant literature, this study illustrates the ways in which the two are interconnected: the social processes of relational exchanges between project participants engaging in the proceses of sensemaking and the ways of approaching relational exchanges that would facilitate the process of sensemaking. On the basis of the theoretical discussion how projects are operated while being embedded in a context of networks of external participants we elaborated that for successful project performance management of project-based networks should play facilitating and supportive role of creating a framework enabling mindful behaviour and collaborative processes of problem-solving.</p><p>Research limitations/implications: Even this study highlights previously overlooked connections between literatures on relational exchanges and organizational sensemaking by giving attention to a diverse range of issues concerning project-based business networks, further research in this direction may be useful for deeper understanding of the processes. Firstly, the generalizability of the findings presented here remains to be tested. Secondly, the aspects influencing relational exchanges in short-term project setting identified here may not be exhaustive: they could be supplemented by the discovery of other aspects, perhaps through data collected from project setting of different type. Thirdly, although relational exchanges can vary in sense of communication and collaboration intensity, it was outside the scope of this study to address the issue at this level of analysis. Despite these limitations, this study has made an attempt to draw up the findings that may have some implications for both research and practice.</p><p>Value of research: As revealed in our study, a set of management incentives may help in creating a positive environment for efficient communication and collaboration within a project. It suggests that management incentives should try to organize a trust like environment that will provide much of incentive for partners to work together non-opportunistically during their relational exchanges and much of the assurance necessary for exchange partners to feel comfortable with this arrangement. The results of the study clearly shows that applying management methods will help shortcut the process necessary to establish the working norms necessary for functional communication and collaboration between participants.</p>

Abstract:
Inflow and infiltration (I/I) water in the sewer network originates from groundwater, precipitation, seawater as well as over-leakage from drinking water pipes. It is the proportion of water in the sewer system that is not wastewater and causes problems both at the treatment plant as well as in the sewer network. Through overflows, floods and bypassing at the treatment plant I/I causes discharges of wastewater to recipients and nature and thus have negative environmental effects. I/I also stand for an overload in the system which, in addition to environmental consequences, also has social, economic and technical consequences. Despite efforts to reduce and mitigate the effects of I/I water for a long time, the problem remains and a large proportion of all the wastewater in the network and the treatment plan still is I/I.  Historically, and for many cases at present, there is little to no methodology for how the work with I/I water takes place and is prioritized in the municipalities and responsible water and sewerage organizations. Measures have instead been implemented with a reaction based approach, in other words when something has broken down or there is a failure in the system. A new discussion about I/I water has arisen in recent years due to new requirements from supervisory authorities. As there is not much follow-up or methodology around the work with I/I water, the process of developing a strategy to meet these new requirements for municipalities has shown to be difficult. In cases where analysis of measures against I/I water has been carried out, cost and effects in the treatment plant (i.e. the proportion of I/I water) have most often been used and dimensions other than economic have been left out of the analysis. As I/I water affects social and environmental factors to a great extent, this should be taken into greater account.  In this work, a multi-criterion analysis has been performed in a case study where similar measures to reduce I/I water and its effects in two different areas have been analysed. The included measures were separation, lining, pipe bursting and installation of a stormwater cassette. The results of the case study show that measure A2 has the greatest positive effect. However, there are major uncertainties in the case study conducted and the results are not considered to be robust enough to be used. However, what has been important to include from the work is that by defining and using criteria from all sustainability dimensions, a comprehensive action choice analysis is created and that it is a structured approach to apply. Here, the importance of opening up for discussion within the municipality/organization is emphasized to achieve a coherent view of the prioritization of I/I water and to achieve efficient management. Problems and amounts of I/I water are complex issues and vary from place to place, and are strongly linked to local geohydrological and climate conditions and design of local sewage systems. Therefore, it is important to coordinate the planning of I/I water to use a workflow that is general and can be used, regardless of conditions, in a simple way where adjustments in accordance with local conditions are possible. This work has shown that multi-criteria analysis is a clear and adaptable tool for meeting the difficulties that exist.<br>Tillskottsvatten härstammar från grundvatten, nederbörd samt havsvatten genom felaktiga anslutningar eller läckage i ledningsnätet samt från överläckage från dricksvattenledningar. Det är andelen av vatten i avloppsnätet som inte är spillvatten och orsakar, genom bräddning, översvämningar och förbiledning i reningsverket, utsläpp av avloppsvatten till recipienter och natur samt står för en överbelastning i systemet. Trots att man arbetat med att minska och lindra effekterna av tillskottsvatten under lång tid så kvarstår problemet och en stor andel av allt samlat vatten i ledningsnätet och som kommer till reningsverket är just tillskottsvatten.  Historiskt, samt för många fall i nuläget, så existerar det lite till ingen metodik kring hur arbetet med tillskottsvatten sker i kommunerna och ansvariga VA-organisationer utan åtgärder har implementerats på måfå eller när något har gått sönder. En ny diskussion kring tillskottsvatten har uppstått de senaste åren på grund av uppkomna nya kravställningar från tillsynsmyndigheter. I och med att det inte finns mycket uppföljning eller metodik kring arbetet med tillskottsvatten så har processen med att ta fram en strategi för att möta dessa nya krav för kommuner ofta varit svår. I de fall som analys av åtgärder mot tillskottsvatten har utförts så har kostnad och effekter i reningsverket (det vill säga andel mängd tillskottsvatten) oftast används och andra dimensioner än ekonomiska har lämnats utanför analysen. Då tillskottsvatten påverkar sociala samt miljömässiga faktorer i hög grad bör detta tas större hänsyn till.  I det här arbetet så har en multikriterieanalys utförts i en fallstudie där liknande åtgärder för att minska tillskottsvatten och dess effekter i olika områden har analyserats. De ingående åtgärderna var separering, infodring, rörspräckning samt anläggning av en dagvattenkassett. Resultatet av fallstudien visar att åtgärdsalternativ 2 har störst positiv effekt. Det finns dock stora osäkerheter i den fallstudie som utförts och resultatet anses inte vara tillräckligt robust för att användas. Det som dock har varit viktigt att ta med från arbetet är att genom att definiera och använda kriterier från alla hållbarhetsdimensioner skapas en heltäckande åtgärdsvalsanalys och att det är ett strukturerat arbetssätt att applicera. Här understryks vikten av att öppna upp för diskussion inom kommunen/organisationen för att nå en sammanhållen syn på prioriteringen av tillskottsvatten samt för att nå en effektiv hantering. Problem och mängder tillskottsvatten i olika ställen är komplext och starkt kopplat till lokala klimat och geohydrologiska förhållanden samt lokala avloppssystem. Därför är det viktigt för att samordna planeringen av tillskottsvatten att använda en arbetsgång som är generell och kan användas, oavsett förutsättningar, på ett enkelt sätt där justeringar i enlighet med lokala förutsättningar är möjligt. Det här arbetet har visat att multikriterieanalys är ett tydligt och anpassningsbart verktyg för att möta de svårigheter som finns.

Abstract:
Cette étude se situe dans le cadre des recherches menées par le CEAEA sur la production massive d'hydrogène, sans émission de gaz à effet de serre, via un cycle thermo-chimique de décomposition de l'eau couplé à une source de chaleur à haute température d'origine nucléaire. Dans le cas particulier du cycle dit« Iode-Soufre», on doit extraire H2 à partir d'un mélange H2/HI/H20 très corrosif, opération pour laquelle des procédés membranaires ont été proposés. L'objectif de ce travail est le développement de membranes zéolithiques de type MFI susceptibles d'être utilisées dans ce contexte. Nous présentons les différents matériaux utilisés, la méthodologie de synthèse de couches minces de Silicalite-1 et de ZSM-5 synthétisée sans structurant organique, les techniques de caractérisation des membranes. Une étude cinétique nous a permis d'optimiser et de contrôler les conditions d'obtention de ces couches minces déposées sur des substrats tubulaires en Ti02 et plans en Al2O3-α. De nombreuses expériences de perméation ont été réalisées, pour des gaz simples (H2, He, Ar, N 2, C02, SF6) et des mélanges gazeux (H2/H20/Ar) et (H2/H20/HI/Ar). Les effets de la température, de la pression amont, de l'épaisseur et de la longueur de la couche mince ainsi que du gaz vecteur ont été étudiés en détail. Il apparaît que la présence de molécules d'H20 dans le système joue un rôle prépondérant sur la perméation des autres molécules<br>In the general context of massive and "carbon free" hydrogen production studies, the aim of this work was the development of zeolitic MFI membranes for hydrogen extraction and separation. The methodology of synthesis, the membranes characterization techniques as well as the permeation experimental setup are presented. Optimization and control of the elaboration of Ti02 supported Silicalite-1 and template free ZSM-5 membranes have been reached. Details of the full kinetic study that we performed are given. Numerous permeation experiments, involving pure gas (H2, He, Ar, N2, C02, SF6) and mixtures (H2/H20/Ar) and (H2/H 20/HI/Ar) have been carried on. The effects of temperature, feed pressure, thickness and length of the membranes, as well as the role of the sweeping gas have been emphasized. In the case of gas mixtures, the presence of H20 molecules appears to be a predominant factor

Abstract:
Human capital is the only resource within an organisation that can learn. Developing high levels of competence in employees is one of the most challenging issues in organisations. Off–the–Job training programs either miss the mark or are too far away from the performance setting to have the desired impact on employee competence. Studies have shown that unstructured On–the–Job Training (OJT) leads to increased error rate, lower productivity and decreased training efficiency, compared to structured On–the–Job Training(S–OJT). The proven efficiency and effectiveness of S–OJT make it especially suitable to meet this challenge. Though S–OJT has been around for a while there has not been a proper integration of technology into the process. Every training approach, including S–OJT, is merely a means to an end, not an end in itself. The use of S–OJT helps to develop consistent appropriate levels of employee competence. When employees have these competencies e.g. better knowledge of the production processes, they can increase productivity, complete projects on time, lower defect rates, or achieve other outcomes of importance. These are the outcomes that matter to the organisation and the effectiveness of S–OJT should be judged from this perspective. Researchers have consistently found that one way to improve learners' success is to increase the frequency of exams. Classes meet for a set number of times. An instructor's decision to give more exams typically means that students have less time for learning activities during class meetings. How then can one have the best of both worlds, increasing the number of assessments and at the same time having enough time for learning activities? This can only be accomplished by integrating computer–based assessment into S–OJT programs. Computer–based testing and training can provide flexibility, instant feedback, an individualised assessment and eventually lower costs than traditional written examinations. Computerised results create opportunities for teaching and assessment to be integrated more than ever before and allow for retesting students, measuring growth and linking assessment to instruction. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of integrating computer–based testing and training into S–OJT programs using the Air Separation unit of Sasol Synfuels as a case study. The null hypothesis is used to investigate the draw backs of OJT and S–OJT programs. A framework is also developed for the effective integration of CBT into S–OJT programs.<br>Thesis (M.Ing.

Abstract:
Come potrà configurarsi il lavoro in futuro? Quali nuove realtà e valori emergeranno in seguito alle trasformazioni della Quarta Rivoluzione industriale? Quanto la partecipazione dei lavoratori risulterà decisiva per il successo delle organizzazioni? Il libro propone esperienze concrete di partecipazione ‘creativa’ di lavoratori e manager all’interno di aziende impegnate a sviluppare un’organizzazione intelligente. Nella prima parte del libro parlano operai, impiegati o dirigenti che possono avere anche ruoli negoziali in ordine alla contrattazione sindacale, ma che sono soprattutto impegnati affinché tutto funzioni, offrendo opportunità in grado di rigenerare i processi e valorizzare i lavoratori. Nella seconda parte sono contenute riflessioni e proposte su come le esperienze di partecipazione possono sollecitare il mondo accademico, le relazioni sindacali, le politiche e il sistema legislativo ad approfondire e tener conto dei nuovi bisogni del lavoro, al fine di costruire un circolo virtuoso che supporti imprese e lavoratori, direzione e partecipazione nelle sfide complesse poste dall’innovazione e dal mondo competitivo della produzione.

Abstract:
Hypermobility-related syndromes constitute a family of heritable disorders of connective tissue (HDCT) that derive from abnormalities affecting genes that encode for the connective tissue matrix proteins such as collagen, fibrillin, and tenascin. They range from such commonplace though poorly recognized conditions such as the joint hypermobility syndrome (JHS) to the better-known, if more rare, eponymous syndromes such as Marfan's syndrome (MFS) and the different types of the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). The more common presentations are with skin pathology (bruising, scaring), joint or spinal and/or muscle pain and instability with vulnerability to injury and chronic widespread pain, cardiac valve pathologies, and in MFS and vascular EDS, arterial dilatation with the risk of dissection and rupture. JHS (widely considered synonymous with the EDS hypermobility type) is further complicated by cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction such as orthostatic intolerance, palpitations, and syncope, and the recently described and commonly encountered pangastrointestinal dysmotility. The latter can manifest as gastro-oesophageal reflux, gastroparesis, slow-transit constipation, or rectal evacuatory dysfunction with rectal intussusception. In addition, HDCT are associated with bladder and uterine problems as a consequence of pelvic floor weakness. Such multisystemic conditions need to be managed by a multidisciplinary team able to draw on medical, surgical, physical, and psychological interventions by appropriately experienced specialists and therapists. This chapter introduces the reader to the epidemiology, genetics, classification, and clinical presentation of JHS, EDS, and MFS. It also describes the key investigations required to support a diagnosis and assess complications of an HDCT, as well as the multidisciplinary approach to management.

Abstract:
The objective of the International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles (INPRO) is to support the safe, sustainable, economic and proliferation resistant use of nuclear technology to meet the needs of the 21st century. The first part of the project focusses on the development of an understanding of the requirements of possible users of innovative concepts for reactors and fuel cycle applications. This paper reports progress made on the identification of user requirements as they relate to the environment and environmental protection. The user requirements being formulated are intended to limit adverse environmental effects from the different facilities involved in the nuclear fuel cycles to be well below maximum acceptable levels. To determine if the user requirements are met, it is necessary to identify those factors that are relevant to assessment of the environmental performance of innovative nuclear systems. To this effect, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and the Material Flow accounting (MFA) methodologies are being appraised for the suitability for application. This paper develops and provides the rationale for the “users’ requirements” as they are currently defined. Existing Environmental Impact Assessment and Materials Flow Accounting methodologies that can be applied to determine whether or not innovative technologies conform to the User Requirements are briefly described. It is concluded that after establishing fundamental principles, it is possible to formulate sets of general and specific users’ requirements against which, the potential adverse environmental effects to be expected from innovative nuclear energy systems (INES) can be assessed. The application of these users’ requirements should keep the adverse environmental effects from INES’s within acceptable limits.

Abstract:
Governments in developing countries recognize the need for appropriate technology for the treatment of emergencies from incomplete abortion or miscarriage. Numerous studies have investigated the appropriateness of an integrated model of postabortion care (PAC) that includes three essential elements: emergency treatment for spontaneous or induced abortion; counseling and family planning services; and links to other reproductive health services. Many integrated PAC services include replacement of the conventional clinical treatment, sharp curettage (SC), with manual vacuum aspiration (MVA). In 1997 and 1999 the Population Council supported intervention studies in Mexico and Bolivia, respectively, to assess PAC programs in terms of safety, effectiveness, quality of care, cost, and subsequent contraceptive use by clients. Both interventions introduced integrated PAC services and compared the outcomes of MVA and SC use in large public hospitals. To assess changes in service quality and costs, researchers analyzed clinical records and interviewed clients and providers before and after the interventions. As noted in this summary, SC and MVA are equally safe and effective and can be provided on an outpatient basis. Integrating clinical treatment with family planning counseling and services increased clients’ knowledge and contraceptive use.
