Abstract:

The work reported on is an extension of work done in Washington State to examine the systematic occurrence and variability in pavement mat density. The focus will be on the extent of the pavement that is affected by variable density due to temperature differentials and the fact that randomly based testing does not identify the occurrence of cyclic density differentials. Temperature differentials 14°C (25°F) or greater generally cannot be compacted to the same level of density as the surrounding mat and therefore lead to significant density differentials (increase in air voids of 2% or more).

Abstract:

Using extensive Canadian longitudinal data from the years 1969–71, the authors estimate union-nonunion wage differentials of 12–14 percent for 1969 and 13–16 percent for 1970. These estimates are not adjusted for selectivity because three different tests to identify selectivity yield no evidence of selectivity bias. The authors argue that although testing for selectivity is often essential, selectivity adjustments have resulted in greatly inflated estimates of union-nonunion wage differentials in some studies and should therefore be used with caution.

Abstract:

AbstractThe paper explores the determinants of yield differentials between sovereign bonds, using euro-area data. There is a common trend in yield differentials, which is correlated with a measure of aggregate risk. In contrast, liquidity differentials display sizeable heterogeneity and no common factor. We propose a simple model with endogenous liquidity demand, where a bond’s liquidity premium depends both on its transaction cost and on investment opportunities. The model predicts that yield differentials should increase in both liquidity and risk, with an interaction term of the opposite si

Abstract:

Abstract Current pathologic diagnosis of benign and neoplastic bone marrow disorders relies in part on the microscopic analysis of bone marrow aspirate (BMA) smears and manual counting of nucleated cell populations to obtain a cell differential. This manual process has significant limitations, including the limited sample of cells analyzed by a conventional 500-cell differential compared to the thousands of nucleated cells present, as well as the inter-observer variability seen between differentials on single samples due to differences in cell selection and classification.

Abstract:

Mixed model methods allow genetic merit to be compared directly for pigs measured in different environments or generations. They take into account genetic relationships among all individuals in the population, and allow continuous selection throughout the animal's life. The advantage is more accurate selection in larger populations. The risk is that selection decisions are decentralised to many different sites, requiring a high degree of supervision.In 1986 a “group nucleus” using BLUP and AI was established for a pig dam line in order to improve both litter size and lean growth.

In the framework of the structural reforms in Colombia one of the most important policy proposals was reducing rigidities in the labor market. A perspective to assess the results of such reforms is the analysis of the relationship between firm employment and wage differentials in manufacturing before and after the reforms. If the labor reforms reached the intended objective of making more flexible the labor market, the employment levels must change faster, along with the behavior of wages and other labor costs, given some characteristics of firms and the economy.

An in vitro inoculation assay was developed as a routine disease testing method to study gene-for-gene interactions in the potato (Solanum tuberosum)-Phytophthora infestans pathosystem. The specificity and reliability of the new method was compared with the well-established detached-leaf assay. Four P. infestans isolates were tested for avirulence on a set of R gene differentials using tissue cultured plantlets and detached leaves. Both methods gave identical conclusions on avirulence profiles of all isolates. A population of 93 clones was phenotyped for segregation of two closely linked and f

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to test the managerial power hypothesis more rigorously than in previous studies by: testing it against the compensating wage differentials explanation, using both cross-sectional and longitudinal data, and adopting two alternative measures of managerial power; a frequently used indirect one, and a more direct power indicator. The results of analysis show that despite introducing individual characteristics, when using two or three alternative measures of managerial power and when estimating the managerial compensation model on cross-sectional as well as longitudinal da

A young male presented with a one week history of left leg weakness and sensory loss. On examination there was severe UMN weakness of the left leg and reduced sensation. An MRI head revealed a large right frontal lobe inflammatory lesion, with two further smaller lesions. He subsequently developed severe weakness in both legs, mild weakness in the left arm and urinary retention. He had brisk reflexes and a sensory level at T8. His MRI spine revealed diffuse long segment cord signal change between C6 and T4 in keeping with neuromyelitis optica so he was treated with high dose then weaning stero

Abstract:

Oscillating Water Column (OWC) systems harness wave energy using a partially submerged chamber with an underwater opening. The Savonius turbine, a vertical-axis wind turbine, is well-suited for this purpose due to its efficiency at low speeds and self-starting capability, making it an ideal power take-off (PTO) mechanism in OWC systems. This study tested an OWC device with a Savonius turbine in an air duct to evaluate its performance under varying flow directions and loads. An innovative aspect was assessing the influence of power augmenters (PAs) positioned upstream and downstream of the turb

Abstract:

Quantitative infrared thermography (QIRT) has emerged as a prominent topic within the field of thermal performance testing of building enclosures. The majority of the previous research has been conducted in Europe and North America, with limited research activity in Asia. Against the backdrop of China’s carbon emission reduction goals, quantitative infrared thermography offers a promising avenue for advancing building energy efficiency testing. This study conducted QIRT testing on three buildings with different insulation capabilities (old buildings, conventional insulated buildings, nearly ze

Abstract:

Despite the acceptance of salary survey market data as justification for salary differentials, the whole area of collection, analysis, and interpretation has not been subject to the same scrutiny as hiring practices and testing. Many aspects of surveys have been ignored by researchers. Little can be said about the effects of different formats in the accuracy of data obtained, about ensuring comparability of job matches, about how representative relevant markets surveys are, or about reliability of analysis of survey results. This study has revealed the extent to which individual survey positio

Abstract:

This article critically evaluates the mixed fortunes of the Living Wage in the UK since its introduction in London nearly 20 years ago. The evidence shows that the gains in hourly pay have been significant, and have been achieved at little or no cost to jobs or working hours. An adequate living wage is therefore a necessary factor in reducing labour market inequality and eradicating in-work poverty. However, the UK case demonstrates that a living wage is not a sufficient factor in the absence of both a coordinated approach for universal implementation and linkages with effective collective bar

Between 33.1 million and 45.7 million people were living with HIV in 2022, out of whom 1.7 million were adolescents aged 10–19 years. In addition, recent statistics show a decline of HIV-related deaths by 51%, except for adolescent boys’ HIV –related deaths. Viral Load testing is recommended to monitor ART failure and reduce HIV-related mortalities. Whereas men are socialised to be strong, resilient, and disease-free, whether this has also formed a challenge to VL testing appointments to adolescent boys in public health facilities has remained underexplored.
