Abstract:
To quantify the energetic cost of maintaining lateral balance during human running, we provided external lateral stabilization (LS) while running with and without arm swing and measured changes in energetic cost and step width variability (indicator of lateral balance). We hypothesized that external LS would reduce energetic cost and step width variability of running (3.0 m/s), both with and without arm swing. We further hypothesized that the reduction in energetic cost and step width variability would be greater when running without arm swing compared with running with arm swing. We controlled for step width by having subjects run along a single line (zero target step width), which eliminated any interaction effects of step width and arm swing. We implemented a repeated-measures ANOVA with two within-subjects fixed factors (external LS and arm swing) to evaluate main and interaction effects. When provided with external LS (main effect), subjects reduced net metabolic power by 2.0% ( P = 0.032) and step width variability by 12.3% ( P = 0.005). Eliminating arm swing (main effect) increased net metabolic power by 7.6% ( P < 0.001) but did not change step width variability ( P = 0.975). We did not detect a significant interaction effect between external LS and arm swing. Thus, when comparing conditions of running with or without arm swing, external LS resulted in a similar reduction in net metabolic power and step width variability. We infer that the 2% reduction in the net energetic cost of running with external LS reflects the energetic cost of maintaining lateral balance. Furthermore, while eliminating arm swing increased the energetic cost of running overall, arm swing does not appear to assist with lateral balance. Our data suggest that humans use step width adjustments as the primary mechanism to maintain lateral balance during running.

Abstract:
Athletic performance in endurance exercise is determined by an interplay among many physiological factors. Body fluid regulation, influenced by both hormonal and osmotic stimuli, is particularly important for maximising performance in endurance sports, as dehydration markedly decreases endurance. Oestrogen has a broad range of effects on the regulation of body fluid balance, as well as on aerobic capacity, metabolism, and other factors that impact endurance exercise performance, yet the role of oestrogen in endurance exercise performance has not been thoroughly examined. This review discusses the effects of oestrogen on compensatory hormonal and behavioural responses to dehydration, such as renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system activation and thirst, that restore body fluid balance and thereby affect exercise performance. Oestrogen-mediated effects and their potential consequences for endurance performance are also evaluated in the context of thermoregulation and aerobic capacity, as well as substrate utilisation during exercise. In addressing the role of oestrogen in endurance exercise, this review will examine human and animal models of endurance exercise and discuss similarities, differences, and limitations. Our aim is to integrate research from neuroscience, physiology, and exercise science to advance understanding of how oestrogen may impact exercise. Such understanding will have particularly important implications for female endurance athletes experiencing the hormonal fluctuations that occur during the reproductive cycle.

Full text
Abstract:
The independent influence of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) and running economy (RE) on thermoregulatory responses during treadmill exercise have not been isolated due to the complex interactions between VO2max, RE, body mass, body surface area (BSA), and metabolic heat production (Hprod). The purpose of the thesis is to determine whether large differences in VO2max and/or running economy independently alter thermoregulatory responses during running in a neutral environment. Seven aerobically unfit (LO-FIT: ~ 40 mlO2·kg-1·min-1) and sevn aerobically fit (HI-FIT: ~ 60 mlO2·kg-1·min-1) males, matched for body mass and BSA ran at 1) a fixed metabolic heat production of 640 W (FHP trial) and 2) 60%VO2max (REL trial). Also, seven high RE (HI-ECO: ~ 185 mlO2·kg-1·km-1) and seven low RE (LO-ECO: ~ 220 mlO2·kg-1·km-1) males, matched for body mass, BSA and VO2max (~ 60 mlO2·kg-1·min-1) ran at a 1) fixed Hprod of 640 W (FHP trial) and 2) fixed running speed of 10.5 km·h-1 (FRS trial). All trials were performed in a thermoneutral environment. The data was analyzed using a two-way mixed ANOVA, with the significance level set at an alpha of 0.05 for all comparisons. It was hypothesized that thermoregulatory responses (i.e., core temperature and sweating), during exercise will not be independently altered by VO2max, but will be altered by any differences in heat production and running economy. The FHP trial resulted in similar changes in esophageal temperature (∆Tes), changes in rectal temperature (∆Tre), and WBSL between the HI-FIT and LO-FIT groups, despite vastly different %VO2max. Whereas the REL trial resulted in greater ΔTeso, ΔTre, and WBSL in the HI-FIT group, in parallel with their greater Hprod. In groups greatly differing in RE, the FHP trial elicited similar ∆Tes, ∆Tre, and WBSL; however the HI-ECO group had to run faster to achieve the same heat production as their LO-ECO counterparts. Moreover, a FRS of 10.5 kmh-1 produced a greater Hprod, ∆Tes, ∆Tre, and WBSL in the LO-ECO group. In conclusion, thermoregulatory responses are determined by Hprod and RE, not VO2max, when differences in mass and BSA are eliminated between groups. Thus, these findings support the initially stated hypotheses.

Abstract:
Over the past century, the role of the vice presidency has increased drastically, to the point that some view the president and the vice president as a co-presidency. When this started and who perpetuated the change is up to debate, but the fact that the vice presidency and the vice-presidential selection process have increased in visibility and importance is not. This project analyzes the changes that occurred in the selection of the vice-presidential running mates in the last four decades by comparing the news coverage of the vice-presidential selection process in the years 1968 and 2000. What characteristics (such as ideology, compatibility, moral character, experience, etc.) do the media value most when reporting on the vice-presidential selection? The study observes the presidential election-year months of March through December in order to acquire data from the time the veepstakes speculation startsâ after a presidential candidate secures enough delegates to win the nominationâ to after the general electionâ where the electoral impact of the vice-presidential choice can be interpreted.

This research continues the work begun by Sungho Jo and Steve G. Massaquoi on modeling human walking and upright balance. The model of human neurological control of balance and gait generation put forward by Jo and Massaquoi in "A model ofcerebrocerebello-spoinomuscular interaction in the sagittal control of human walking" and executed in MATLAB Simulink/SimMechanics. This model has been used to determine the feed-forward command sequences for the generation of walking and running gaits. Furthermore, two feedback circuits controlling the center of mass relative to the swing leg and the composted leg angle of the simulated model were added. These provide a basis for a wider control of disturbances in order to implement running. This work helps forward the long-term goals of the MIT Sensorimotor Control Group--creating a control model of the neurological circuitry responsible for governing human balance and locomotion and testing that model by using it to control a bipedal robot. The results of this research help to prove the validity of the cerebrocerebello-spinomuscular control model developed by Jo and Massaquoi and point positively towards the introduction of the running of the control model on a physical robot.

Abstract:
Over the course of American history, the vice presidency has evolved into a meaningful and influential part of the executive branch, and running mates have become an important part of presidential elections. But scholars, pundits, and political professionals continue to discuss and evaluate vice presidential selection in an outdated framework that now borders on superstition. Now that presidential nominees have sole authority to choose their running mates and the resources to take care in the process, voters demand that they do so. The modern presidential nominee should undertake a serious and methodical research and decision-making process, and should choose a running mate who 1) demonstrates unassailable competence, and 2) bolsters the ticket – not balances it – by extending presidential nominee’s narrative into uncovered territory.

Abstract:
This study aimed to explore the experiences of middle managers in the implementation of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) at a public organisation in Botswana. The BSC is regarded as the most widely used tool in measuring organisational performance globally. The public organisation in Botswana has followed global best practice and implemented the BSC to measure organisational performance; however, the organisation is repeatedly unable to meet its set objectives. To gain an improved understanding of managers’ experiences of using the BSC, face-to-face, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight middle managers at the public organization. Interview data were thematically analysed yielding five key themes: inconsistencies in training, the culture of the organisation, lack of communication, use of information technology and the disparity between individual and organisational performance. Based on the study findings, recommendations are offered to conduct needs analyses prior to introducing new systems, to assess the viability of such a system, and automating the balanced scorecard to reduce fatigue.

Full text
Abstract:
Le fraisier diploïde (Fragaria vesca, 2x=14) comporte deux modes de reproduction : la reproduction sexuée via la floraison, et la multiplication végétative via la production de stolons. Cette espèce présente également deux types de floraison, non-remontants ou remontants, selon la période d’initiation florale du génotype. Chez le fraisier diploïde, le gène responsable de la remontée florale a été identifié comme étant l’homologue du répresseur floral TFL1 et celui du stolonnage reste inconnu. L’objectif de cette thèse est d’identifier le gène responsable du stolonnage et de mieux comprendre la balance entre les deux modes de reproduction, sexuée et asexuée, chez le fraisier diploïde. Une approche de cartographie fine associée à du NGS a permis d’identifier le gène responsable du stolonnage, FvGA20ox4. Ce gène intervient dans la voie de biosynthèse des gibbérellines. Les génotypes non-stolonnants présentent une délétion de neuf bases qui ne modifie pas le cadre de lecture du gène. L’observation cytologique des méristèmes axillaires montre que les génotypes mutés présentent un allongement des axillaires comme les génotypes sauvages mais que ces bourgeons nécrosent par la suite. Une étude de l’activité enzymatique de la protéine délétée de trois acides aminés a montré qu’elle était inactive et ne permettrait pas de transformer les précurseurs de GA (GA12) en GA intermédiaires, qui seront convertis en GA actives via d’autres enzymes. Chez les génotypes mutés, un apport de GA3 permet de restaurer l’émergence de stolons. L’étude de la balance entre les deux modes de reproduction a été étudiée au sein d’une population en ségrégation pour le stolonnage et la remontée florale. Une approche QTL a permis de confirmer le rôle des gènes TFL1 et GA20ox4 dans le devenir des méristèmes en floral ou stolon respectivement et d’identifier deux loci présents sur le LG3 et LG4 impliqués dans la variation quantitative de la floraison ou du stolonnage respectivement. Pour le stolonnage, une interaction forte entre TFL1 et GA20ox4 a été mise en évidence par ANOVA. De plus, le suivi hebdomadaire de cette population pendant deux ans a montré que le processus de remontée florale prédominait celui de stolonnage. En conclusion, les données obtenues permettent une meilleure compréhension du stolonnage et de la balance entre les deux modes de reproduction chez le fraisier diploïde
The diploid woodland strawberry (2n=2x=14) is a good model for genetic and genomic studies since it presents a small genome completely sequenced and its generation period is short. This species displays two modes of reproduction, sexual with flowering and vegetative through runnering, which is the capacity to form stolon. In addition, this species displays contrasted genotypes for their variation of flowering length because of difference in the period of floral initiation. This trait is under the control of TFL1. However, the genetic and molecular control of vegetative reproduction is poorly understood as the one of the balance between the two modes of reproduction. The objective of this work was to characterize the gene responsible of runnering and to decipher genetically and physiologically the balance between the two modes of reproduction. By developing a strategy combining linkage map, bulks and NGS, we found that runnering is controlled by the gibberellin (GA) oxidase, FvGA20ox4. The loss of runnering function is caused by a deletion of nine nucleotides, which does not change the open reading frame of the RNA and leads to a protein shortened by three amino acids. The GA oxidase activity was confirmed in enzymatic activity assays with recombinant protein. In addition, the loss-of-function can be restored by exogenous GA3 application. The genetic architecture of the balance between two reproductive modes, sexual and vegetative, was deciphered based on QTL approach. Results showed that, beside the known roles of TFL1 and GA20ox4 genes in promoting perpetual flowering and runnering processes respectively, two loci localized on LG4 and LG3 were linked to the quantitative responses of these processes. In addition, TFL1 and GA20ox4 genes showed epistatic interaction, and the process of flowering was maintained as priority over runnering, which decreased. These results provided new insight in the genetic control of the relationship between sexual and vegetative reproduction

AbstractIn this chapter we turn to representing flows of funds in alternative international monetary frameworks, and what global liquidity these different frameworks provide. We first recall some arguments in favour of and against fixed exchange rate systems. We then introduce two international monetary arrangements of the past which imply fixed exchange rates, namely the gold standard and the Bretton Woods system, and recall why both eventually failed. We then turn to three international monetary frameworks in the context of the current paper standard, i.e. fixed exchange rate systems, flexible exchange rate systems, and the European monetary union. We explain the role of an international lender of last resort and related solutions, and how these allow for more leeway in running fixed exchange rate systems. We also show how banks and central bank balance sheets are affected by international flows of funds and the balance of payments. Finally, we briefly review recent developments of foreign currency reserves, being the key central bank balance sheet position in this context.

AbstractExtrapolating from List (Das nationale System der politischen Ökonomie. Cotta, Stuttgart, 1841), we explain the paradox of China: A poor country can experience tumultuous growth precisely by exporting more capital on balance than it imports. More growth can be created in developing countries by their running current account surpluses vis-à-vis the OECD plus China region. Public debt in the OECD plus China region would have then to be managed in such a way that full employment is preserved despite the current account deficit. Such a strategy would be beneficial for both groups of countries. For the time being, this is a utopian proposal. Realizing it would mean yet another restructuring, in addition to that associated with digitalization. The opposition of those who could lose their jobs as a result will ensure that this sort of reorientation of global trade policy will remain politically unfeasible for a long time still.

Abstract:
AbstractIn order to obtain considerable amounts of capitalist profit available in a globalized market, individual countries need to enhance their own international competitiveness – a goal that can be achieved through the channel of schools by cultivating human capital. The linear linkage among globalization, international competitiveness, human capital and higher education has convinced many countries to engage in the expansion of higher education institutes. The notion of international competition further generates the idea of university ranking and, in turn, many countries have viewed the world class university as the top priority on the political agenda. As neo-liberalism has become a prevailing new world value, constructed by America, the private sector that addresses efficiency is defined as the best mode of running the higher education market. Therefore, this mode functions as the gateway of achieving this political mission. However, this approach may jeopardize state sovereignty because if the state is unable to balance the relation between capital accumulation and social justice, it cannot win people’s trust. The interactive principle between social cultures and education policies also rejects the universal practicality of free market logic. In order to overcome these challenges, individual countries may adopt transformative strategies, allowing them to improve the international reputation of their own top universities. This essay sets out to shed some light on this issue through examining the case of the Double-First-Class-Universities initiative in China.

Abstract:
Chapter 6 considers the presidential election of 1848, the Compromise of 1850, and the election of 1852. During these years the friendship of Buchanan and King first intensified, then cooled, as each man took a separate path to political power. In 1852 the Democratic Party refused to place Buchanan and King on the same ticket, because the pair had become too closely associated together to balance its growing sectional and ideological divisions. Instead, the Democracy chose the dark horse Franklin Pierce for president and then selected King as his running mate to pacify Buchanan and his supporters. King’s precipitous decline in health, followed by his death in April 1853, ended the decades-long political and personal friendship with Buchanan. In response, Buchanan prepared for another round of exile abroad, this time as American minister to England.

Abstract:
An investigation of the influences of running speeds to the low speed balance of flexible rotors is made in this paper and shows that the balancing weights obtained at the balance speeds can be corrected and nearly equal to that at the operation speed. So the theory of low speed balancing of flexible rotors can be used not only for flexible rotors with natural properties independent of running speeds, but also for those with natural properties dependent on running speeds.

Abstract:
Aiming to obtain an optimum balance between economical profit and environmental protection, a cost-profit model based on heat balance is built up for urban refuse incineration power system, in which the air preheat temperature and oil consumption are taken as parameters, while the maximization of the incomes of the station is taken as the objective. Considering the steady burning as constraint, the influence of the varieties of throwing oil, as well as the electric price adjusting on optimum operation parameters and profits are analyzed according to the running process of urban refuse burning power plant. Three different government’s subsidy and punishments mode are introduced into the model due to the emission of trace organic matter to analyze the influence on the power station’s best running parameters and on the behavior of the power plants. Results reveal that the government’s subsidy to garbage treatment can restrain the function ways of rubbish power station effectively.

Abstract:
The structure of main coolant pump in a nuclear power plant and vibration alarm are introduced. Vibration analysis and trouble diagnosis have been carried out. It shows that pump shaft vibration is mainly composed of running frequency (1×) and half of running frequency (0.5×), motor shaft vibration is just composed of 1×. The vibration fluctuation in pump shaft is caused by the variation of amplitude in 0.5×. Based on vibration analysis result, the fault investigation has been launched, in which it includes installment, measurement, dynamic balance and pump design. After detailed investigation, the excessive vibration was induced by the dynamic unbalance of pump shaft and unsteady vortex of shaft seal water. The research for treatment has been implemented on dynamic balance and seal water flow. It is suggested to increase the seal water flow to control vibration fluctuation. The result shows that this method is effective, economical, safe, and very easy to implement for suppressing flash vibration alarm.

Abstract:
Stochastic simulation is the technique of including the uncertainties into a numeric model. The value of stochastic simulation has been emphasized in literature through different applications in product development process. These applications include simulation of several product performance attributes including crashworthiness, safety, durability and comfort. The comparative cost of running stochastic simulation is usually an order higher than traditional deterministic analysis. However, if properly applied, the value obtained through this technology far exceeds than that through deterministic methods. The higher cost implies that the value has to be clearly defined, measured and balanced against the additional investment. The objective of this paper is to outline a framework for setting up guidelines for stochastic simulation as applied to product development process. Discussions are made on how the model complexity and model accuracy strongly influence the value obtained from stochastic simulation.

Abstract:
The study develops a portable charger platform that contains a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) consisting of a set of planar DMFCs with current collectors, Fractal Hilbert Geometry and a power balance plant (BOP). The third order Hilbert geometry is used for the 35×35 mm2 current collectors. The system output design is set at 5V controlled by a power balance plant applied to 3C low power products. This paper discusses the Methanol feed rate, air flow rate, bipolar plate thickness and power balance plant layout for DMFC performance. To evaluate the reliability and efficiency of the DMFC power source, a data acquisition (DAQ) system connected to a real time monitor is used to assess the current and voltage output from the DMFC system while running different parameters. The results show the current of the charger system obtain 84 mA and 103 mA under 2V and 3V input voltage converters respectively. The transform efficiency for power balance plant is up to about 84% for 3V input voltage converter.

Abstract:
Model tests at ballast and design draught are used to convert the sea trial results from the ballast trial draught to the contractual design draught. Correlation allowances in model test results and their effect on the trial performance prediction are of major importance. Nowadays it is not only typical to verify the contract speed but also the EEDI certification requires a verification of the speed power performance of the vessel. The use of a to favorable CA-value may lead to attractive performance figures, but also leads to higher fuel consumption figures than expected. Furthermore the design point of the propeller is affected, which leads to a too low light running margin and in some cases to erosive cavitation. During a study, large spreading in the values of the correlation allowances for design draughts have been found for merchant vessels tested at different model test institutes, but at ballast trial draught the spreading is much less. Can it happen that some institutes select favorable correlations allowances on the basis of inaccurate trial data of shipyards? Or should we accept a large spreading in correlation allowances and have these indeed been confirmed by sea trials at design draught? This paper will present a discussion using the experience of a large full scale trial database as well as the accuracy of model and full scale tests.

Abstract:
Abstract Build a more robust ESP or reduce the stress it endures? Run-life improvement requires finding the right balance to suit the local well conditions and economics. Utilizing key case studies, the paper examines how operational stress caused by low flow rates can be avoided with the correct utilization of instrumentation, surveillance, and automation thereby providing practical solutions for extending the run life of already installed ESPs. The method starts with an extensive review of ESP failure mechanisms and their causes, supported by case studies and pictures illustrating the symptoms that can be observed during dismantling. This holistic technique is supported by several case studies. The common "thread" found on most failure mechanisms is temperature rise inside the ESP, which deteriorates properties of materials, including polymer insulation, elastomer seals, and metallic parts. Heat rise is attributed to three main causes: motor thermal losses, pump hydraulic losses, and frictional heat. Case studies and data sets are provided to confirm that a paradigm shift in mitigation improvement can be achieved by automating the identification of low flow events utilizing a downhole real-time flowmeter. Three reasons are given. Firstly, it is a leading indicator, whereas surface flow meters and temperature sensors are lagging indicators due to pump-up time and heat exchange respectively. Secondly, automation enables more consistent and cost-effective identification in large ESP populations. Thirdly, it enables deeper diagnostics of the cause of low flow (i.e., gas lock versus slugging, and even the source of slugging such as horizontal lateral versus production tubing). The authors provide an exhaustive list of case studies identifying sand fallback and scale as well as low flow causes and how they can be diagnosed, including differentiation between ESP, wellbore hydraulics, and reservoir inflow causes (e.g. depletion and skin.) Over the last 30 years, improvements in design and materials have tripled ESP run lives. Therefore, many fields attain six-year average run lives and 90-day survivability of 98%. Nevertheless, economics have tightened, which has raised the bar, and therefore, many operators still suffer uneconomical run lives. Case studies indicate that the next step-change in run life improvement will require a reduction in environmental stresses by mitigating the effect of low-flow events, scale, and sand.

Abstract:
A ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) which has a crawler based driving system is considered to be one of the appropriate underwater vehicles for seafloor exploration or seabed resources development [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The crawler driven ROV is able to move on sea floor, stay on a fixed sea bottom location and is capable to do heavy works such as digging the seafloor. In order to utilize those capabilities, it is important to know the fundamental moving capability of crawler driven ROV. According to the previous investigations [8][9], the crawler driven ROVs are easy to run in bow-up attitude in some running conditions due to the buoyancy and the hydrodynamic forces acting on the ROV. This irregular running sometimes causes a turning over. Therefore, we have to know the restrictions on the design parameters of the ROV not to run in bow-up attitude to design the ROV. The authors have been investigating the moving capability of crawler driven ROV and showed a method to estimate the restrictions of design parameters to avoid the bow-up running, which is called normal running condition [10][11][12][13]. This method is based on a simple dynamic model which considers the forces acting on ROV as concentrated loads; those are gravity, buoyancy, reaction from the ground, thrust and hydrodynamic drag. The loading position of ground reaction in steady running is obtained from the balance condition of forces. We consider that the loading point of ground reaction should be inside between the fore and rear wheels for the normal running. This constrained condition indicates the relation between gravity and buoyancy center locations for the normal run of ROV under the given body geometry, weight, displacement and running speed. This method estimates the ROV’s running capability in acceptable accuracy compared with the model experiments. However, this method does not consider the tension of the cable which is connected to the ROV. As you can easily imagine, the cable tension has a big influence on the movable area of the ROV. If the ROV keeps going forward, it will turn over due to the tension of the cable at a certain point. We must know the movable area of the crawler driven ROV for the operation planning. The present study shows a method to estimate the movable area of the crawler driven ROV under the restriction of the cable by extending the previous method to estimate the normal running condition.
