Abstract:
AbstractRoad infrastructure development is currently very intensive in Serbia. One such example is the Grdelica Gorge, where a new highway was aligned and put into service in 2019. The Gorge has provided a very challenging engineering environment imposing high levels of several hazard types: floods; slides; debris flows; and rockfalls. In this work, the debris flow hazard for the first 15 km of the road route was in focus. The assessment included an expert-driven analysis for identifying potential source areas, coupled with deterministic modelling of the flowing process originating from these source areas, resulting in detailed simulations of the final runout distance, height of deposit, and flow velocity, which are all reliable parameters for mitigating the hazard across the road alignment. A combination of geomorphological criteria, processed in a GIS environment was used to narrow down the search of source areas containing loose, erodible material which easily mobilizes under saturated conditions. The criteria were calibrated by the outlines of the available inventory, acquired by remote sensing techniques. The Digital Terrain Model with 12.5 m resolution was used for running RApid Mass Movement Simulation (RAMMS), using estimated bulk density and friction coefficients as input parameters. Since there was no recent debris flow in the area for the appropriate back-analysis of these parameters, experience-and lab-based estimations were used. Several simulations have reached the road alignment, wherein a few imposed significant threats with respect to deposit height and velocity that require additional attention.

Abstract:
Forensic identification after fatalities is difficult in the face of cadaveric decomposition, and recognition by the bone is the first to be provided with the opportunity to define the sex of the skeleton analyzed. Recent studies have shown that the mandible can be used as a parameter in sexual diagnosis because it is susceptible to masticatory muscle activity, and that this is different between genders. However, it should be noted that ethnic factors also affect the shape of the jaw. The objective of this study was to develop a regional pattern of sex determination, based on the mandible, through the analysis of ante- and post-mortem materials of the population of interest. The following panoramic radiographs were analyzed in 386 panoramic radiographs: ramus height, body height, chin height, mental foramen height, distance between condyles, distance between mandibular angles, distance between coronoid processes, distance between mental foramina, branch width, incensure width, mandibular length at the chin angle, distance between the mental foramen and the chin, distance between the mental foramen and the branch, position of the mental foramen in relation to the posterior teeth, and presence of flexure at the posterior border of the branch at the level of the occlusal plane. The results were evaluated through statistical tests and the patterns recognized for the region of interest were tested in macerated jaws. It is concluded that the definition of male mandibles is given by the distance between the condyles and the mandibular angles, while female mandibles are determined by the distance between the coronoid processes and by the mandibular lengths of the marrow angle bilaterally.

Abstract:
Idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR) is a localized, non-inflammatory degenerative disease of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) characterized by osteolysis that leads to the destruction of the mandibular condyles. The etiology of ICR is still unknown. Possible risk factors have already been identified, including orthognathic surgery. This condition is more common in women than men. Radiographic study in these cases indicates a diminished condylar head volume, decreased ramus height, change in condylar shape, and progressive Class II basal bone relationship. Computed tomography (CT) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) are suitable for diagnosing initial ICR manifestation and progression. Drugs and occlusal splint therapy represent a conservative form of treatment. Arthroscopy and arthrocentesis can help reduce pain and improve joint function. In advanced stages of ICR, total joint replacement may be necessary. The approach to treating ICR cases should be individualized and based on the extent of the disease process. There are a number of patients with ICR who are best treated with total joint replacement (TJR).

<em>Abstract</em>.—Low-head barriers against invasive sea lampreys <em>Petromyzon marinus</em> in the Great Lakes are designed to maintain a minimum crest height of 30 cm and have a lip on the crest to prevent them from climbing over the barrier. We tested the ability of migratory-phase sea lampreys to scale inclined ramps with shallow (0.7–5 cm) water depth. We predicted that sea lampreys would jump the barrier and that their ability to attach would increase passage success. A recirculating flume and ramp with a vertical height of 10–30 cm and an inclination between 308 and 608 were used to evaluate lamprey climbing ability. Lampreys trying to scale the ramp were monitored by passive integrated transponder tag readers and low-light video cameras. No lampreys were observed jumping out of the water to scale a barrier. Independent of ramp angle, no fish passed over a 30-cm ramp. Lampreys often attached themselves to the ramp, but without a gain of vertical height between repeated attempts. The success rate at lower ramp heights varied between 0% (15 cm height, 308 angle) and 63% (10 cm height, 608 angle). Only ramps shorter than half the body length of the lampreys could be surmounted. Apparently, the lampreys had to have their dorso-ventral fins fully submerged in the downstream pool to create enough propulsion to scale a ramp in burst-swimming mode. An analysis of 1,300 passage attempts in a field-validation experiment showed a greater apparent motivation to move up a ramp but reconfirmed our laboratory findings on passage technique and maximum performance. We conclude that sea lamprey barrier height could be further reduced and that an overhanging lip is not necessary as sea lampreys neither climb nor jump over barriers. A ramp with a shallow inclination and moderate vertical height and water flow is a new design suggestion for a barrier that blocks sea lampreys and may allow other fish species to pass.

Abstract:
We propose a new approach for multi-agent collective construction, based on the idea of reversible ramps. Our ReRamp algorithm utilizes reversible side-ramps to generate construction plans for ramped block structures higher and larger than was previously possible using state-of-the-art planning algorithms, given the same building area. We compare the ReRamp algorithm to similar state-of-the-art algorithms on a set of benchmark instances, where we demonstrate its superior computational speed. We also establish in our experiments that the ReRamp algorithm is capable of generating plans for a single-story house, an important milestone on the road to real-world multi-agent construction applications.

Abstract:
Social ranking is usually caused by limited access to resources such as feed, water as well as mating partners. In rams, social dominance is mostly related to physical traits such as body weight, horn size, body length and scrotal circumference. The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between physical traits of Zulu sheep rams and the establishment of social rankings. The social dominance rank was determined by a feed competition test using rams of the same age. Physical traits such as body weight, chest girth, horn length, scrotal circumference and withers height were measured for each ram. Sheep A was ranked first with a 100% number of wins (P < 0.01) followed by sheep E with an 86% number of wins (P < 0.05). A positive linear relationship between time spent on the feeder against the number of wins was not significant (P > 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the proportions of wins against horn length (P < 0.05) and chest girth length (P < 0.05). Time spent at the feeder was positively correlated with body weight and withers height (P < 0.05). Social dominance in Zulu sheep can be determined by particular physical traits such as horn length and chest girth.

In this module, students come to reason about proportional relationships in the context of (straight) segments of roller coasters that have the same steepness. Further, students come to reason about the constant of proportionality as a single number that describes the steepness of a ramp (by characterizing how many times as large the height is as the length of the base of a ramp). At the end of the module, students apply this idea graphically in the context of deals for buying chicken wings.
