Abstract:

This article discusses the stature of George Westinghouse as an engineer who is rivaled by his skill and integrity as a leader. Beginning with the railroad air brake, Westinghouse’s inventiveness formed the basis of a commercial empire. Given the evidence of his companies when he controlled them, there is another case to be made for George Westinghouse that he may also have been America’s greatest living industrial manager. George Westinghouse was honored in many ways during his lifetime. In 1874, he was awarded the Scott Legacy Medal by the Franklin Institute. He was made a member of France’s Legion of Honor in 1895. The American engineering societies in 1905 honored him with the John Fritz Medal. He was awarded the Edison Medal, named for his greatest competitor, in 1912. In 1913, he became the first American to receive the Grashoff Medal from Germany.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Many total hip arthroplasties are complicated by severe acetabular bone loss, limiting reconstruction options. This case report details the use of a 54-mm trabecular metal straight buttress and press-fit jumbo cup to reconstruct an especially large superior and medial defect (Paprosky type IIIB). Specifically, the large defect was reconstructed by placing the augment superior-medially in the acetabular defect instead of simply superiorly and attached to the iliac wing as it is more commonly employed. To our knowledge, there has been no reported use of a similar augment to fill such a defect in this way. This technique represents a promising potential option for reconstruction of especially large superior and medial acetabular defects Scott DJ, Jennings JM, Bolognesi MP.

Abstract:

Implementation is a way or process of application carried out by students, after getting material or theory from educators then students realize what they learn through action. Education is a way that can change human behavior or mindset. While the moral is the nature, attitude, temperament or habits inherent in humans. While the scout movement is a form of integration that has been formed and regulated in Act Number 12 of 2010 concerning the Scout Movement. Hidden Curriculum is one of the strategies that proves that hidden curriculum can influence the learning process especially in instilling moral values. This research is a qualitative research with descriptive type. The informants in this study were the Trustees and Students of Madrasah Scout Ibtidaiyah Negeri 1 Medan. The results showed that the scouts of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Negeri 1 Medan had implemented the moral values in the Scout Movement activities well. This is evidenced by a special program of moral education, scouting activities containing moral education, special programs containing moral values such as the implementation of social services or fundraising, then mutual cooperation conducted at school or outside school. However, the Boy Scouts at MIN 1 Medan continue to implement improvements in improving moral education and to realize students or scout members who are dharma-based and have Satya teachings.

Kukkola, E. (Eija). "Effects of copper and nickel on subarctic Scots pine needles." Doctoral thesis, University of Oulu, 1999. http://urn.fi/urn:isbn:9514253701.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract Three different studies were conducted to elucidate the effects of copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) on Scots pine needles. One was the Monchegorsk smelter emission gradient study on the Kola Peninsula, Russia, the second was the 3-year seedling and 6-year adult tree low-level CuNi and acid rain (H2SO4 at pH 3) irrigation study at Kevo, Finland. In the third study seedlings were exposed to Cu and Ni for a one season in Oulu, Finland. Ni accumulated efficiently in needles, and this accumulation was seen in each of the different studies. The Cu concentrations remained low in needles, except near the Monchegorsk smelters. The addition of Ni together with Cu in Oulu seemed to enhance the accumulation of Ni into the needles of Scots pine seedlings. Plasmolysis may be related to both drought and the Ni treatment, as observed in Oulu, because plasmolysis was statistically more abundant in the 15 mg Ni kg-1 dry soil treated needles than in other treatments except in 25 mg Ni kg-1 dry soil. Cu induced lipid peroxidation of chloroplast membranes was visible under transmission electron microscope (TEM) as light colored, swollen thylakoids in chloroplasts near the Monchegorsk smeltersand also in needles exposed to 25 Ni+50 Cu mg kg-1 in soil in Oulu. Some year to year variation in the frost hardening process was seen in metal and acid treated needles, which may have caused the maximum frost hardiness level drop after CuNi, pH3 and CuNi/pH3 treatments. Root growth was increased by 5 mg Ni kg-1 dry soil in soil in Oulu, but 15 mg Ni kg-1 dry soil Ni in soil decreased root growth and increased root tip dieback. 25 Ni+50 Cu mg kg-1 dry soil in soil markedly decreased root growth. The proportion of oxidized glutathione in Cu-treated needles was smaller than in Ni-treated needles, but roots had higher peroxidase activity levels. However, Ni seemed to cause more oxidative stress to seedlings than copper.

Abstract:

Abstract In this study, mineral nutrition and its relation to the vigour of Scots pines growing under the influence of sulphur, copper and nickel stress were investigated. This was done by analysing the nutrient status and needle damage of pines along a pollution transect extending from the proximity of a large S, Cu and Ni emitters on the Kola Peninsula to a background area in Finnish Lapland. Additionally, pine seedlings were exposed to Cu and Ni stress in order to gain more detailed information about the mechanisms behind metal stress. The total sulphur concentrations of the youngest needles in the vicinity of the largest point source were about double compared to those in the reference area (< 800 mg in kg of dry needles vs. > 1900 mg kg-1). In the case of Cu and Ni, this difference was close to 100-fold (from 2-3 mg kg-1 to over 250 mg kg-1). While the elevated sulphur concentrations were not attributable to particle deposition, the particles on needle surfaces raised the total concentrations of Cu and Ni occasionally over 1.5-fold compared to the inside concentrations. The Mn and Zn concentrations showed a decreasing trend, whereas K and P slightly increased towards the Monchegorsk smelters. Enhanced needle senescence and tip necrosis were related to high total foliar levels of Cu, Ni and S and low levels of Zn and Mn. Stomatal chlorosis and other discolourations showed a distinct relation to high SO2 levels in the air and also to high foliar concentrations of Ca, Fe, Si and Cl. Particles deposited on needle surfaces did not cause directly visible injuries in pines. In seedlings, Cu and Ni were enriched in roots: the Ni concentration was up to 16-fold and the Cu concentration 6-fold compared to that added into the soil. While Cu was mostly retained in roots, Ni had much easier access to foliage. The effect of metal stress on other nutrients varied between nutrients, plant parts and metals added. Soil analyses from both the field study and the seedling experiment gave mostly a weak estimation about the plant availability of nutrients. Foliar nutrients remained above the deficiency limits in all studies and were hence not the primary cause for the decrease of pine vigour and the consequent growth retardation and forest decline.

Abstract:

Being a teacher can be hard. • We invest ourselves wholeheartedly, yet sometimes our efforts fall short. • We know our subject matter, but students may seem uninterested. • We search for more and better ways to teach, but the results can be disappointing. As educators, we will fail. We will be hurt. We will be disappointed. We will be discouraged. Yet key to our recovery from these slumps is what we tell ourselves about those failures. What do we need to do? “Just get up.” “Just get up!” With this statement, Olympic gold medal figure skater Scott Hamilton reminds us that the challenges of a skater involve many falls and frequent pain. It is impossible to be a skater and not fall down. All skaters fall. All skaters fail. They know they will fall. They know they will fail. They know both will hurt. Hamilton says: “Just get up!” Too many “falls” without strategies to recover can cause teachers to “crust up.” We generate layers of crust to protect us as we cling to our anger, refuse assistance, and numb our bodies, minds, and spirits. But crusting insulates us from feeling and caring, so we miss out on the vitality of our lives. Then “we forget to be glad for all the things that go right” When we know how to “get up,” when we accept that the fall will come again, we can persevere. We feel the strength of our knowing, and we use determination to pull ourselves out of the doldrums. Just get up. Just keep going. Just aspire to do better.

Abstract:

This chapter shows how objects constitute the story of Red Army soldiers' dramatic movement and participation in violence during the Great Patriotic War and hints at how these experiences impacted what it meant to be Soviet, detailing how one soldier from the hinterland attained status through successful mastery of violence. It focuses on Bato Damcheev, a sniper and later scout who killed nearly ninety German soldiers, took ten more as prisoners captured for interrogation, and destroyed three tanks and several enemy bunkers. The chapter examines several things that Damcheev would have used or acquired during the war in order to show how a particular violent subjectivity was made possible by key material objects such as identity booklets and weapons, and embodied in the form of others such as medals and trophies.

Full text

Abstract:

On the eve of the Civil War, Scott County farmer James M. Stone owned twenty-three enslaved people, farmed 137 acres of improved land along South Elkhorn Creek, and was one of the most prosperous farmers in the county. By 1867, his industrial distillery produced about thirty barrels of whiskey per week. He entered into a business partnership with James H. Shropshire, who assisted with management and provided some of the capital for expansion. Stone made extensive modifications to his works to comply with the new federal requirements imposed by the 1868 revenue law, including building a state-of-the-art stack-type warehouse of brick, with a metal roof and iron window shutters. Cooper Adam Michaels made barrels for Elkhorn and other distilleries. Elkhorn’s transport connections for grain, construction materials, fuel, and whiskey were unimproved roads and a track-side depot on the railroad some two and a half miles distant. Logistics proved to be problematic for the duration of Elkhorn’s operations. Elkhorn consumed more grain than was produced locally and required shipments from Outer Bluegrass counties; barley malt came from Canada, and hops arrived from brokers in Lexington and Cincinnati. Most grain was shipped in sacks. New mechanical equipment often proved unreliable or unsuited for its application, necessitating ad hoc repairs. The distillery operation included a large pen where hogs were fed slop.

Abstract:

Mathematically speaking, the most important tools used by the chemical kineticist to study chemical reactions like the ones we have been considering are sets of coupled, first-order, ordinary differential equations that describe the changes in time of the concentrations of species in the system, that is, the rate laws derived from the Law of Mass Action. In order to obtain equations of this type, one must make a number of key assumptions, some of which are usually explicit, others more hidden. We have treated only isothermal systems, thereby obtaining polynomial rate laws instead of the transcendental expressions that would result if the temperature were taken as a variable, a step that would be necessary if we were to consider thermochemical oscillators (Gray and Scott, 1990), for example, combustion reactions at metal surfaces. What is perhaps less obvious is that our equations constitute an average over quantum mechanical microstates, allowing us to employ a relatively small number of bulk concentrations as our dependent variables, rather than having to keep track of the populations of different states that react at different rates. Our treatment ignores fluctuations, so that we may utilize deterministic equations rather than a stochastic or a master equation formulation (Gardiner, 1990). Whenever we employ ordinary differential equations, we are making the approximation that the medium is well mixed, with all species uniformly distributed; any spatial gradients (and we see in several other chapters that these can play a key role) require the inclusion of diffusion terms and the use of partial differential equations. All of these assumptions or approximations are well known, and in all cases chemists have more elaborate techniques at their disposal for treating these effects more exactly, should that be desirable. Another, less widely appreciated idealization in chemical kinetics is that phenomena take place instantaneously—that a change in [A] at time t generates a change in [B] time t and not at some later time t + τ. On a microscopic level, it is clear that this state of affairs cannot hold.

Abstract:

En route to sarcandralactone A 3, Scott A. Snyder of Scripps Florida effected (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 7842) Diels–Alder cycloaddition of the activated enone 1 to the Danishefsky diene. On exposure to trifluoroacetic acid, the adduct was unraveled to the ene dione 2. Michael N. Paddon-Row of the University of New South Wales and Michael S. Sherburn of the Australian National University prepared (Nature Chem. 2015, 7, 82) the allene 4 in enantiomerically-pure form. Sequential cycloaddition with 5 followed by 6 gave an adduct that was decarbonylated to 7. Further cycloaddition with nitroethylene 8 led to the pseudopterosin (−)-G-J aglycone 9. The protein–protein interaction inhibitor JBIR-22 12 contains a quaternary α-amino acid pendant to a bicyclic core. Nicholas J. Westwood of the University of St. Andrews set (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 4046) the absolute configuration of the core 11 by using an organocatalyst to activate the cyclization of 10. Metal catalysts can also be used to set the absolute configuration of a Diels–Alder cycloaddition. In the course of establishing the structure of the marine natural product muironolide A 15, Armen Zakarian of the University of California, Santa Barbara cyclized (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2015, 137, 5907) the enol form of 13 preferentially to the diastereomer 14. Unactivated intramolecular Diels–Alder cycloadditions have been carried out with more and more challenging substrates. A key step in the synthesis (Chem. Asian. J. 2015, 10, 427) of (−)-platencin 18 by Martin G. Banwell, also of the Australian National University, was the cyclization of 16 to 17. In another illustration of the power of the unactivated intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction, Thomas J. Maimone of the University of California, Berkeley cyclized (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 1223) the tetraene 19 to the tricycle 20. Allylic chlorination followed by reductive cyclization converted 20 to chatancin 21.

Abstract:

Tomislav Rovis at Colorado State University developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 5904) an enantioselective catalytic cross-aza-benzoin reaction of aldehydes 1 and N-Boc imines 2. The useful α-amido ketone products 4 were configurationally stable under the reaction conditions. In the realm of asymmetric synthesis, few technologies have been as widely employed as the Ellman chiral sulfonamide auxiliary. Francisco Foubelo and Miguel Yus at the Universidad de Alicante in Spain have adapted (Chem. Commun. 2012, 48, 2543) this approach for the indium-mediated asymmetric allylation of ketimines 5, which furnished amines 6 with high diastereoselectivity. There has been vigorous research in recent years into the use of NAD(P)H surrogates, especially Hantzsch esters, for biomimetic asymmetric hydrogenations. Yong-Gui Zhou at the Chinese Academy of Sciences showed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 2442) that 9,10-dihydrophenanthridine (10) can also serve as an effective “H2” donor for the asymmetric hydrogenation of imines, including 7. Notably, 10 is used catalytically, with regeneration occurring under mild conditions via Ru(II)-based hydrogenation of the phenanthridine 11. A unique approach for asymmetric catalysis has been developed (Nature Chem. 2012, 4, 473) by Takashi Ooi at Nagoya University, who found that ion-paired complexes 14 could serve as effective chiral ligands in the Pd(II)-catalyzed allylation of α-nitrocarboxylates 12. The resulting products 13 are easily reduced to furnish α-amino acid derivatives. Another novel catalytic platform has been employed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 7321) for the chiral resolution of 1,2-diols 15 by Kian L. Tan at Boston College. Using the concept of reversible covalent binding, the catalyst 16 was found to selectively silylate a secondary hydroxyl over a primary one, thus leading to the enantioenriched products 17 and 18. Scott E. Denmark at the University of Illinois has applied (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 3236) his chiral Lewis base strategy to the enantioselective vinylogous aldol reaction of N-silyl vinylketene imines 19 to produce γ-hydroxy-α,β-unsaturated nitriles 22. For the preparation of enantioenriched homopropargylic alcohols 25, the asymmetric addition of allenyl metal nucleophiles (e.g., 24) to aldehydes 23 provides a straightforward approach.

Abstract:

Sandia National Laboratories has completed thermal performance testing on the Schott parabolic trough receiver using the LS-2 collector on the Sandia rotating platform at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility in Albuquerque, NM. This testing was funded as part of the US DOE Sun-Lab USA-Trough program. The receiver tested was a new Schott receiver, known as Heat Collector Elements (HCEs). Schott is a new manufacturer of trough HCEs. The Schott HCEs are 4m long; therefore, two were joined and mounted on the LS-2 collector module for the test. The Schott HCE design consists of a 70mm diameter high solar absorptance coated stainless steel (SS) tube encapsulated within a 125mm diameter Pyrex® glass tube with vacuum in the annulus formed between the SS and glass tube to minimize convection heat losses. The Schott HCE design is unique in two regards. First, the bellows used to compensate for the difference in thermal expansion between the metal and glass tube are inside the glass envelope rather than outside. Second, the composition of materials at the glass-to-metal seal has very similar thermal expansion coefficients making the joint less prone to breakage from thermal shock. Sandia National Laboratories provided both the azimuth and elevation collector module tracking systems used during the tests. The test results showed the efficiency of the Schott HCE to be very similar to current HCEs being manufactured by Solel. This testing provided performance verification for the use of Schott tubes with Solargenix trough collector assemblies at currently planned trough power plant projects in Arizona and Nevada.

Abstract:

Given the largely untapped solar energy resource, there has been an ongoing international effort to engineer improved solar-harvesting technologies. Towards this, the possibility of engineering a solar selective volumetric receiver (SSVR) has been explored in the present study. Common heat transfer liquids (HTLs) typically have high transmissivity in the visible-near infrared (NIR) region and high emission in the mid-infrared region, due to the presence of intra-molecular vibration bands. This precludes them from being solar absorbers. In fact, they have nearly the opposite properties from selective surfaces such as cermet, TiNOx, and black chrome. However, liquid receivers which approach the radiative properties of selective surfaces, can be realized through a combination of anisotropic geometries of metal nanoparticles and transparent heat mirrors. Solar selective volumetric receivers represent a paradigm shift in the manner in which solar thermal energy is harnessed and promise higher thermal efficiencies (and lower material requirements) than their surface-absorption based counterparts. In this paper, the ‘effective’ solar absorption to infrared emission ratio has been evaluated for a representative SSVR employing copper nanospheroids and Sn-In2O3 based heat mirrors. It has been found that a solar selectivity comparable to (or even higher than) cermet-based Schott receiver is achievable through control of the cut-off solar selective wavelength. Theoretical calculations show that the thermal efficiency of Sn-In2O3 based SSVR is 6 to 7% higher than the cermet-based Schott receiver. Furthermore, stagnation temperature experiments have been conducted on a lab-scale SSVR to validate the theoretical results. It has been found that higher stagnation temperatures (and hence higher thermal efficiencies) compared to conventional surface absorption-based collectors are achievable through proper control of nanoparticle concentration.
