Influence of the Bulb Geometry and Electrical Supply Parameters on the UV Emission of DBD Excimer Lamps

The aim of this article is to improve the performance of DBD excimer lamps systems for UV production. Within this framework, our approach considers two distinct directions: the geometric dimensions of the double-barrier lamp bulb and the characteristics of the power supply. To explore these directions, a sampling of 19 bulbs of different geometries is considered, and a specially designed power supply is used, capable of controlling the shape (duration and magnitude) and frequency of current pulses injected into the plasma. A dedicated test bench, including a supervisory program that drives the power supply and collects system performance data, is used to perform parametric sweeps and guarantee measurement repeatability: the set of electrical parameters is fully explored for each lamp, and each experiment is characterized by UV emission performance and electrical generator operating conditions. Multiquadric response surfaces, used to format the results of this multi-variable exploration, reveal the most efficient directions for system optimization: increasing gas volume and, at a given operating frequency, providing the shortest possible current pulses with high amplitude can increase both UV emission and conversion efficiency.

Investigating Dissertation Supervisors’ Characteristics Valued by Supervisees and their Effect on the Supervision Process

The Supervision process requires both supervisors and supervisees to perceive supervisors’ qualities as a determining criterion in the selection of supervisors. In order to investigate supervisors’ characteristics valued by supervisees and their effect on the supervision process in the English department at the University of Tiaret, two questionnaires were handed to 40 Master 2 Didactic students and 10 teachers selected through purposive sampling The data generated were subject to quantitative and qualitative analysis. The findings revealed that supervisees appreciate supportive, flexible, responsive, available and knowledgeable supervisors. Results also suggested that directive, demanding, unresponsive and inaccessible supervisors are not appreciated. Further, it was found that lack of clear guidelines on how to choose a good supervisor, lack of awareness of the roles of supervisors and supervisees and obliviousness of supervisors’ contribution to supervisees’ overall development were the principal reasons causing challenges in finding a suitable supervisor. The findings also showed that supervisors’ selected characteristics enhance supervision by creating an inclusive and productive environment that reaches intended outcomes efficiently. Considering these results, the following pedagogical implications are offered. The study argues for organizing seminars to inform (future) supervisees of characteristics of good supervisors and how to choose a suitable one, cultivating a positive relationship between supervisors and supervisees by clarifying the roles of each, scheduling meetings between supervisors and supervisees to create a code of conduct for working together on long terms, regulating guidelines for supervisor selection and tailoring supervisory programs that prioritize the characteristics identified in this research.

Supervisory Alliance in Medical Training: Associations with Educational Engagement and Satisfaction.

While medical education requires frequent interactions with attending physicians and supervisors, little research has explored the role of supervisory alliance in the learning process. In other learning environments, supervisory alliance, or the bond between a supervisor and trainee, is considered a key ingredient of effective supervision. Medical educators or attending physicians who aim to enhance learning and engagement in medical education may benefit from understanding specific factors that increase or decrease engagement and how those might intersect within a context that requires learning through supervision. This cross-sectional study examined associations between supervisory alliance and (a) program satisfaction, (b) educational engagement, (c) and career purpose. Participants were medical trainees from the rural Northeast (n = 108, response rate = 81%) who completed an electronic and anonymous survey. Multiple linear regression was used to examine whether total supervisory alliance independently predicted behavioral and emotional engagement in learning while controlling for hours slept, hours worked, and burnout. Supervisory alliance predicted trainees' career purpose, program satisfaction, and emotional engagement in learning. Findings from this study lay groundwork for consideration of the role of supervisory alliance in medical learning processes. Future research might explore whether targeted mentorship programs or faculty enhancement training that focuses on the supervisory relationship might positively impact learning outcomes.

An Approach to Quantifying Operational Resilience Concepts

This paper uses public data disclosed in eight bank holding companies' "living wills", or Resolution Plans, to examine and test how operational resilience can contribute to financial system stability. The banks, each subject to the Large Institution Supervision Coordinating Committee (LISCC) supervisory program, interact in a complex network of Financial Market Utilities (FMUs). By employing complementary public data on operational exposures and benchmarks for operational disruption developed in existing research, we construct plausible estimates of how various disruption events would impact the financial system. This paper provides a tangible, reproducible example of how concepts discussed in recent regulatory agency guidance on operational resilience can be employed for risk analysis and scenario testing. It also demonstrates how network mapping can aid in this type of analysis. The estimates generated here indicate that disruptions stemming from tail-end operational risk events extend beyond absolute financial losses, and are likely to be large enough to pose a systemic risk to the financial system.

Design of a Hydrodynamic Performance Bench for Ventricular Assist Devices

This work presents the design of a hydrodynamic performance bench (HPB) of Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs) for evaluations of developed prototypes. VADs are used for the treatment of patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), either as a bridge to recovery, for transplantation or as destination therapy. HPB is required for the performance evaluation of VADs that are under development in Brazil. The performance evaluation of a VAD considers the rotation speed [rpm], flow rate [L/min], pressure [mmHg] and power [W]. The project consists in choosing an actuator and transducers from HPB, and developing the mechanical components, supervisory control and modules. The HPB mechanical components were designed in SolidWorks® following rapid prototyping and built by additive manufacturing. The HPB supervisory program was developed in graphic language through the Labview® program and implemented in a development and application platform with data acquisition system. The manipulated variable of the supervisory system is the motor speed [rpm] acting via an Escon 50/4 EC-S power controller on the BLDC EC45 N339281 motor. The controlled variable is the “VAD flow” [L/min] provided by an HT-110 flow transducer. A particle image velocimetry (PIV) module was developed for flow analysis. All process data are stored in spreadsheets for later consultation. HPB could assist in a satisfactory way in the analysis of the developed VADs prototypes, demonstrating the technical success of the project.

Using administrative data to uncover how often and why supervisory neglect happens: Implications for child maltreatment prevention

BackgroundDespite supervisory neglect being the most prevalent and fatal neglect sub-type, the most common reasons why caregivers are substantiated for this type of maltreatment remains unknown. ObjectiveOur study describes cases substantiated for supervisory neglect in a Midwestern state in an effort to inform prevention strategies against supervisory neglect. Participants and settingThis study utilized state administrative data from substantiated child maltreatment investigations conducted between May 1st and October 31st, 2019 (N = 11,208). MethodsWe first identified the substantiated investigations where supervisory neglect was present and established investigation-level correlates for these cases. We then selected a random sample of investigations with a substantiated allegation of supervisory neglect (n = 150) for a qualitative review of written investigative narratives to uncover the contextual factors of supervisory neglect and identify which factors frequently co-occur. ResultsSupervisory neglect was the most common maltreatment type, present in 71% (n = 7945) of substantiated child welfare investigations. Our qualitative review of 150 randomly selected cases identified ten distinct, non-mutually exclusive contextual factors of supervisory neglect. Child exposure to domestic violence was the most prevalent contextual factor (45%), followed by caregiver's substance-related problems (42%). Childhood exposure to domestic violence and caregiver's substance-related problems was the most common co-occurrence of factors, present in 18% of cases. ConclusionsSupervisory neglect accounts for the vast majority of child maltreatment incidents. To prevent the largest share of supervisory neglect cases, policy and programs are needed to address domestic violence and substance-related problems among caregivers.

To evaluate the effect of home safety supervisory program on improvement in childhood safety, self-reported home hazard of caregivers, and caregivers' supervisory attitude. Randomized controlled trial. Caregivers of children between 2 to 5 years of age residing in selected villages in Karnataka. Intervention group was administered Home safety supervisory program (HSSP), whereas the control group received teaching on child care. The intervention group had a significant reduction in the frequency of childhood injuries when compared with the control group [MD (95% CI) 8.96 vs 3.37], after the administration of Home safety supervisory program. There was a significant difference in the mean baseline scores of caregivers self-reported home hazard practices between the two groups (P<0.001), and improvement in the supervisory attitudes of caregivers in the intervention group (P<0.001). Appropriate and effective home hazard reduction teaching reduces home injuries in children. The improved awareness of caregivers in child safety, and child supervision emphasizes the importance of this program.

Optimalisasi Sistem Informasi Untuk Efektifitas Program Kerja Pengawasan Tahunan (PKPT) Inspektorat Kabupaten Bondowoso

The preparation of an annual supervisory work program (PKPT) requires a long process in order to get good and accurate results, because the process is done semi-computerized, which still involves a lot of staff in the Inspectorate. This makes the PKPT formulation process less effective and efficient. So that the supervisory work program that should have been able to be carried out quickly became constrained because of the long process in its preparation. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to design an application that can help facilitate the preparation of an annual monitoring work program with the waterfall method, making it easier for the inspectorate to determine audit objects and the implementation of supervision of predetermined objects. Based on the tests carried out, it was found that the application feasibility was 93%. From the results of these tests, this application can help make it easier for the inspectorate to provide an assessment of the level of risk, determine supervision plans and assignments to be more effective and efficient. So that efforts to become Good Governance and Clean Governance can be realized properly.
