Space Traffic Management: Standardizing On-Orbit Behavior

As the number and intensity of space activities increase, so will the need for rules on Space Traffic Management (STM). Emerging technologies such as mega-constellations, which are satellite constellations consisting of hundreds or even thousands of satellites, may stretch the limits of the current informal coordination system. The goal of this essay is to discuss the critical elements of a system of STM that would, through standardization, establish trust in the resulting system. The standardization elements will be divided into three categories: data standards, processing standards, and legal standards. I argue that a system of STM requires standardized practices that are based on a strong technical foundation in order to enhance trust among space actors. After discussing the types of standards that are needed for STM, I turn to possible paths for achieving a globally effective STM system.

Maritime Networking: Bringing Internet to the Sea

Maritime networks establish wireless multi-hop networks to provide wireless broadband service at sea, connecting various kinds of ships, maritime buoys, and beacons. The maritime networks possess two distinguishing characteristics highly affected by maneuver at sea-dynamic link quality and bandwidth constrained, and dynamic network topology-that warrant specific attention. Unlike land vehicles, maneuver at sea is affected by sea surface movement and wave occlusions, which can cause unstable environment with a high rate of link breakages caused by low link stability, as well as low and highly variable bandwidth. In spite of the need to achieve performance close to high-speed terrestrial wireless broadband service on land, there is only a perfunctory effort to investigate maritime networks. There is an urgent need to refresh the interest to investigate, as well as to further enhance, maritime networks. This paper presents a review of the limited research works of this topic, which revolve around the networking issues in the link, network, and upper layers, in the literature. The objective is to establish a foundation in order to motivate a new research interest in maritime networks. Open issues are also presented to foster new research initiatives in this burgeoning and exciting area.

Effects of Heuristic-Systematic Information Processing About the Flu and the Flu Vaccination

Every year at least 10 million people get the flu. However, despite receiving flu vaccination campaign messages every year, the majority of the U.S. population does not annually receive the flu vaccination. People have different levels of risk perception of hazardous events based on their knowledge and experiences. Accordingly, this study examined the different ways in which individuals perceive risks and benefits through exposure to health information campaigns. In doing so, this study employed risk perception theory and the heuristic-systematic model (HSM) as a theoretical foundation in order to explore risk perceptions of the flu and the flu vaccination as an antecedent to attitude. This study examined not only how people process different types of risk information regarding the flu, but also how different sources of health information affect perceptions of the flu and the flu vaccination. This study applied a 2 (Message framing: heuristic information message vs. systematic information message) by 2 (expert source vs. non-expert source) online experiment. In doing so, this study manipulated heuristic/systematic information messages and expert/non-expert sources. This study found that risk perception of the flu illness was positively related to benefit perception of the flu vaccination. Heuristic messages affected risk perception of the flu vaccination, but not flu illness perception. The level of capacity for interpreting information and individuals’ motivation can affect perceptions of the flu and the flu vaccination. Therefore, this study suggested that heuristic messages with expert’s recommendations has the greatest impact on beneficial information processing. Additionally, these findings indicate that health campaigns need to discuss the benefits of the flu and the flu vaccination based on scientific evidence in order to increase awareness of flu illness.

The effect of embedded gypsum streaks on the dissolution of dam foundation: a case study in Iran

Evaporative rocks are known to have a high susceptibility to dissolution in fresh water. Substantial evidence all over the world has shown that the dissolution of evaporative rocks in the foundations of dams and basins can lead to unfortunate disasters. In a basin located in Iran, owing to dissolution of evaporative rock in the foundation on the south side, some hazardous events, such as unexpected subsidence, ground collapse, and water escape from the reservoir, have been reported. Comprehensive geological and geophysical surveys along with detailed geotechnical investigations were performed in order to assess the reasons. By analyzing the site investigation results, it is recognized that even though the foundation of the basin is composed of impervious marl layer, the dissolution of thin streaks of gypsum embedded inside the marl layer provides interconnected paths for the flow of water into the lower depths of the foundation in order to reach to halite layer located inside the marl. The geophysical survey results indicate that the zone with defects is limited to the specific area of the basin where the halite layer is located relatively near the ground surface. However, if the reservoir is filled completely again, the dissolution front may advance to other zones of the basin, and more area of the basin ground may be affected by subsidence and other relevant phenomena.

Counter-Critical Theory: An Intervention in Contemporary Critical Thought and Practice

Abstract Walter Benjamin and Bertolt Brecht's short-lived project for a critical theory journal, Krise und Kritik, foundered in 1931 on the shoals of positivism. Since then, a series of anti-foundational challenges to traditional critical theory has fragmented the landscape of critical theory and, especially, critical praxis, leaving us disarmed today, in these unprecedented times. This essay offers a way forward by means of what it calls “counter-critical theory”: a critical method that indexes the original impulse of critical theory, but liberates it from its foundation in order to allow for a more open-ended and permanent re-examination of how power circulates and recirculates throughout society. Counter-critical theory is a pure theory of illusions and calls for a strategic, ecumenical practice of political disobedience, accompanied by an unrelenting and resolute deployment of interpretation and resignification.

Strategic Operating Model for Enterprise Architecture

A sophisticated framework for strategic operating model is presented here which helps develop the IT foundation in order to execute IT-Strategy. The driving force behind the projected operating model is the need of IT alignment with business. There are key approaches used in this paper to shape our operating model: a) SOA: Service orientation approach for each phase of Enterprise Architecture b) Governance: Automated process to govern the strategy into each enterprise application c) Evolution: Although strategy drives enterprise architecture, it also evolves in bottom-up fashion. This operating model integrates several frameworks to lead a basis of standard and effective IT.

Encouraging a career in science: a research review of secondary schools’ effects on students’ STEM orientation

Previous studies have pointed out that schools play a central role in students’ orientation towards science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). However, studies use a variety of theoretical foundations in order to define variables and hypothesise relationships between schools and STEM orientation. In order to facilitate the interpretation and comparison of the studies’ findings, we conducted a systematic literature review, which theoretically integrates the variables, summarises the findings, and derives further research suggestions. In accordance with our inclusion criteria, we selected 28 peer-reviewed journal articles, which have investigated the effects of schools on students’ STEM orientation via quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods. Analyses show that the studies were quite diverse regarding investigated STEM orientation variables, but overall positive with regard to the effects of school. Based on the theoretical integration and comparison of findings, we point out methodological and theoretical challenges for future research on the effects of school and STEM orientation.

Unplanned extubations in general intensive care unit: A nine-year retrospective analysis.

Background and aim: Unplanned extubation (UE) in Intensive Care Units (ICU) is an indicator of quality and safety of care. UEs are classified in: accidental extubations, if involuntarily caused during nursing care or medical procedures; self-extubation, if determined by the patient him/herself. In scientific literature, the cumulative incidence of UEs varies from 0.3% to 35.8%. The aim of this study is to explore the incidence of UEs in an Italian university general ICU adopting a well-established protocol of tracheal tube nursing management and fixation. Methods: retrospective observational study. We enrolled all patients undergone to invasive mechanical ventilation from 1st January 2008 to 31st December 2016. Results: in the studied period 3422 patients underwent to endotracheal intubation. The UEs were 35: 33 self extubations (94%) and 2 accidental extubations (6%). The incidence of UEs calculated on 1497 patients intubated for more than 24 hours was 2.34%. Instead, it was 1.02%, if we consider the whole number of intubated patients. Only in 9 (26%) cases out of 35 UEs the patient was re-intubated. No deaths consequent to UE were recorded. Conclusions: The incidence of UEs in this study showed rates according to the minimal values reported in scientific literature. A standardized program of endotracheal tube management (based on an effective and comfortable fixing system) seems to be a safe and a valid foundation in order to maintain the UE episodes at minimum rates.

Podstawy ładu bankowego w polskim prawie konstytucyjnym i administracyjnym

The bank order is a part of the public order in the state. However, processes of globalisation and internationalisation of financial markets nowadays have an intense effect on perception of the bank order in the wider scope – these phenomena give occasion to this problem to gain distinctly supranational character. Nevertheless, the state is still the basic legal-economic system where the foundations of this order are built, carried into effect and considered. Legal system of the state in which the foundations of this order are created and in which this order is in force can be analysed in many dimensions – among other things from the point of view of constitutional and substantive foundations of the bank order and taking into consideration the legal-organisational elements of this order. Within this paper the attention will be paid particularly to constitutional foundations of the bank order in Poland – which have its main source in the provisions of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland which constitute foundation of the political, social and economic (and the bank) order in Poland and which are developed – within the foundations of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland – in the ordinary legislation (particularly in the public economic law and – within this branch of law – in the complex branch of bank law).

APPLICATION OF NATURAL LAW THEORY (THE NATURAL RIGHT) TO PROTECT THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

<p align="center"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>The theory of natural law is usually used as a moral and philosophical foundation in order to protect the individuals property rights of Intellectual Property (IP). Philosophically, the protection of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) can not be separated from the dominant thought that emphasizes the doctrine of natural human factors research. This study is legal research by using law and historical approach. The analysis of primary data is qualitatively through internal valuing to obtain a complete understanding (verstehen), while the secondary data such as law material is analyzed using hermeneutics (interpretation), content analysis and deductive method. The result shows that in respect of the development of the theory of natural law, there are four dominant theory of natural law to examine IP namely utilitarian theory, labor theory, personality theory, and social-planning theories. Moral doctrine which is based on natural law was adopted by the IPR regime to protect the individual owners of IPRs in order to that rights would not be violated by others. The natural law theory (the natural right) is still relevant to be used as a moral and philosophical foundation for the protection of IPR, as an individual property rights.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Intellectual Property, Intellectual Property Rights, traditional cultural expression, Protection</p>

Soil-Structure Interaction under the Effect of High Groundwater Table

This paper gives an account of a study performed for the raft foundation of a commercial building of considerable height and area. A raft 175 m long was designed without due consideration to the buoyancy effect due to high groundwater table as the building is near the sea. Although the raft was designed as an uninterrupted system, the designer used different, and insufficient, thicknesses for the foundation in order to lower costs. A 3D study was subsequently undertaken to analyze the settlements of the raft using finite elements. There was reasonable agreement between the computed and the measured settlements. However, the front block of the raft was observed to float as soon as pumping for lowering of the groundwater table was halted. This instigated the analyzers to tie this portion of the raft to the surrounding piled curtain that was used for excavation of the foundation pit, by means of reinforced concrete beams. The computations show that the heave of the floor was restrained at acceptable levels. It is planned to stop pumping in the near future and compare the computed and measured vertical movements.

Analysis of ground-borne noise and vibration levels generated by buses

In a dense urban environment, vibrations and ground-borne noise generated by buses is an increasing problem in the same way as that generated by urban mass transit. Furthermore, it is very hard to mitigate vibration levels using a wave impedance barrier or trenches due to the short distances between roads and buildings and network congestion. Modifying building foundations in order to place spring boxes or resilient plots is generally very difficult. In most cases, significant reductions in vibrations and ground-borne noise are mainly achieved by to maintenance operations performed on the road’s surface instead of replacing rolling stock or a decreased speed limit. In the Paris region, particularly high levels appear in so-called “Haussmannian” buildings with beam iron structures and lightweight floors. Few data are available in the literature, unlike the rail sector where the infrastructure manager and the operator are usually easily able to find mitigation solutions. With road complaints, inhabitants call operators, which do not directly control the impact of their rolling stock on the building, its floors and their intrinsic characteristics. Therefore, RATP built a database fed with measurements taken in the Ile-de-France region despite very different experimental conditions. One of the purposes of this database is to identify similar behavior and reproducible gains through, for example, the renewal of the road surface. In this paper, a specific case of the Haussmannian building is detailed. The behaviors of time histories and frequencies are compared based on different descriptors. Three floors of the building are instrumented; the soil and building are characterized using an artificial source (impact hammer). At least 19 runs of different indicators are analyzed and a statistical evaluation of these parameters is performed.

Periodic response predictions of beams on nonlinear and viscoelastic unilateral foundations using incremental harmonic balance method

Buildings, railway tracks, drill strings and off-shore pipelines are all treated as structures on elastic foundations in order to study their response behavior in many engineering applications. Also, flexible polyurethane foams used for cushioning in furniture, foot-ware, and automotive industries serve as foundations, and exhibit complex nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. It is challenging to develop models of systems that include these foam-like materials and are able to predict the behaviour over a wide range of loading conditions. Even when using the simpler models commonly utilized in the literature, it is computationally expensive to predict the steady-state response of these structures to static and harmonic loads. In this work a pinned-pinned beam interacting with a viscoelastic foundation which can react both in tension and compression, or in compression alone is considered. The model developed here is capable of predicting the response to static as well as dynamic forces, whether they are concentrated or distributed. If the foundation reacts only in compression, the contact region changes with beam motion and the estimation of the unknown contact region is embedded into the iterative solution procedure. The steady-state solution is expressed as the sum of an arbitrary number of modes of an undamped pinned-pinned beam and Galerkin method is used to derive equations for the modal amplitudes. Incremental harmonic balance is used to make the steady-state frequency response predictions more efficient and a pseudo arc-length continuation technique is used to track both stable and unstable solution branches. By using these computationally efficient solution approaches, it is possible to explore a much wider variety of loading conditions and also quickly determine the number of modes required for convergence of the periodic solution. By using this solution method, the influence of various system parameters on the response of the beam is studied.

Richard Stone’s Contribution to Input-Output Analysis

Cet article met en évidence la contribution remarquable et originale de Richard Stone à l’analyse input-output, étroitement liée à sa carrière nationale et internationale. Son apport principal est d’avoir contribué au développement d’une normalisation internationale des comptabilités nationales et élaboré un modèle économétrique de croissance à la fois réaliste et général. Nous proposons une synthèse des deux principales contributions théoriques et empiriques de Stone à l’analyse input-output, et aussi d’autres essais moins connus. Parmi les premiers, on peut mentionner les études de Stone sur l’intégration des tableaux d’input-output dans le système des comptes sociaux nationaux (« SNA »), ses recherches sur les matrices de comptabilité sociale (« SAM »), la détermination et la mise à jour des coefficients techniques (méthode « RAS »). En ce qui concerne les travaux moins connus, on peut mentionner la tentative d’appliquer la méthodologie input-output au niveau microéconomique. Cet article montre enfin l’intérêt plus tardif de Stone pour l’application de l’analyse input-output à la démographie, la santé, l’éducation et l’environnement.
