AbstractWe explore the stop mass and its possible probe through a set of three different signal processes within a class of SUSY GUTs with non-universal gaugino masses. The stop mass can be realized in a wide range (0.4–8 TeV) consistent with the current experimental constraints. We consider the decay processes; $$\tilde{t}_{1}\rightarrow t\tilde{\chi }_{1}^{0}$$ t ~ 1 → t χ ~ 1 0 , $$\tilde{t}_{1}\rightarrow b W^{\pm }\tilde{\chi }_{1}^{0}$$ t ~ 1 → b W ± χ ~ 1 0 and $$\tilde{t}_{1}\rightarrow b q{\bar{q}}^{\prime }\tilde{\chi }_{1}^{0}$$ t ~ 1 → b q q ¯ ′ χ ~ 1 0 to be possible signals, and explore the impact of the current experimental results as well as the possible mass scales of stop, which can be probed in the future collider experiments. We find that the first and third signal processes can be tested in the current experiments, and significantly probed in future, while the second signal process is not available for the current experiments in this class of SUSY GUTs. We also comment that the second signal process can be available to be tested when the collider experiments are conducted at high center of mass energies and luminosity.

In this paper the problem of transverse impact on a uniform beam is considered theoretically. Two examples which can be taken as representing a wide range of impacts which occur in practice are referred to particularly: (1) the beam struck transversely by a uniform square-ended rod travelling perpendicularly to it; (2) the same problem for the striker having a spherical end. In these examples it is shown that the ability of the beam to deflect in shear as well as in bending plays a dominant part in what takes place, and that, as far as the force between striker and beam is concerned, the length of the beam is usually without importance, as there is not time during the impact for an elastic wave to travel to the ends of the beam and return. It is shown that in regard to example (2) the theory presented is in good agreement with Arnold's experimental results obtained some years previously, and curves are given from which the maximum force between beam and striker can be obtained in terms of three parameters, representing respectively the velocity, the mass, and the radius of the striker, each dependent on the ratio of shear stiffness to bending stiffness for the beam.

Passive walkers perform a walking like stable limit cycle on small slopes without any external control. In this research, a deployed model of biped that can be built has been considered, and then its walking performance sensitivity such as efficiency, stability and robustness on uneven trains due to variation of structural parameters and their optimum limits have been investigated. It was shown that the foot arc radius and center of mass height have the most important effect on walking performance. After doing simulations in MSC.ADAMS software, an optimum design trend has been suggested. At the end based on experimental results, it was shown beside optimization of structural parameters, the impact condition is very important to achieve optimal walking.

This paper discusses a state-of-the-art inline tubular sensor that can measure the viscosity–density ( ρ η ) of a passing fluid. In this study, experiments and numerical modelling were performed to develop a deeper understanding of the tubular sensor. Experimental results were compared with an analytical model of the torsional resonator. Good agreement was found at low viscosities, although the numerical model deviated slightly at higher viscosities. The sensor was used to measure viscosities in the range of 0.3–1000 mPa·s at a density of 1000 kg/m3. Above 50 mPa·s, numerical models predicted viscosity within ±5% of actual measurement. However, for lower viscosities, there was a higher deviation between model and experimental results up to a maximum of ±21% deviation at 0.3 mPa·s. The sensor was tested in a flow loop to determine the impact of both laminar and turbulent flow conditions. No significant deviations from the static case were found in either of the flow regimes. The numerical model developed for the tubular torsional sensor was shown to predict the sensor behavior over a wide range, enabling model-based design scaling.

The Impact

The perforation characteristics of fiber reinforced laminates is crucial for the design of protective civil and military structures. This paper investigates the perforation characteristics (ballistic limit velocity, residual velocity, perforation energy) of cross ply and quasi-isotropic (QI) carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates under the impact of a rigid conical steel bullet. The influence of thickness and ply orientation on these characteristics is also studied for a wide range of velocities. The perforation characteristics of these laminates were determined, numerically as well as experimentally. A numerical model is developed by using Hashin damage model to understand the behavior of laminates under high velocity impact. The accuracy of the model is assessed by comparing its prediction with experimental results of cross ply laminates. Then, impact perforation study of different possible configurations made of quasi-isotropic (QI) CFRP laminates, oriented at 0°, 90°, 45° and −45° directions are carried out with the help of validated numerical model. The perforation characteristics predicted with the help of numerical model is in good agreement with the experimental results. Optimal configuration is achieved in terms of energy absorption and damage resistance for better performance under impact loading.

Analytic Expression

A transverse shear strain was utilized to characterize the severity of creasing for a wide range of tooling configurations. An analytic expression of transverse shear strain, which accounts for tooling geometry, correlated well with relative crease strength and springback as determined from 90° fold tests. The experimental results show a minimum strain (elastic limit) that needs to be exceeded for the relative crease strength to be reduced. The theory predicts a maximum achievable transverse shear strain, which is further limited if the tooling clearance is negative. The elastic limit and maximum strain thus describe the range of interest for effective creasing. In this range, cross direction (CD)-creased samples were more sensitive to creasing than machine direction (MD)-creased samples, but the differences were reduced as the shear strain approached the maximum. The presented development provides the foundation for a quantitative engineering approach to creasing and folding operations.

eamwork is becoming increasingly important to wide range of operations. It applies to all levels of the company. It is just as important for top executives as it is to middle management, supervisors and shop floor workers. Poor teamwork at any level or between levels can seriously damage organizational effectiveness. The focus of this paper was therefore to examine whether leadership practices consist of team leader behavior, conflict resolution style and openness in communication significantly influenced the team member’s satisfaction in hotel industry. Result indicates that team leader behavior and the conflict resolution style significantly influenced team member satisfaction. It was surprising that openness in communication did not affect significantly to the team members’ satisfaction.

The Impact

During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare workers (HCWs) have been subject to increased workload while also exposed to many psychosocial stressors. In a systematic review we analyze the impact that the pandemic has had on HCWs mental state and associated risk factors. Most studies reported high levels of depression and anxiety among HCWs worldwide, however, due to a wide range of assessment tools, cut-off scores, and number of frontline participants in the studies, results were difficult to compare. Our study is based on two online surveys of 2195 HCWs from different regions of Russia during spring and autumn epidemic outbreaks revealed the rates of anxiety, stress, depression, emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and perceived stress as 32.3%, 31.1%, 45.5%, 74.2%, 37.7% ,67.8%, respectively. Moreover, 2.4% of HCWs reported suicidal thoughts. The most common risk factors include: female gender, nurse as an occupation, younger age, working for over 6 months, chronic diseases, smoking, high working demands, lack of personal protective equipment, low salary, lack of social support, isolation from families, the fear of relatives getting infected. These results demonstrate the need for urgent supportive programs for HCWs fighting COVID-19 that fall into higher risk factors groups.

The Impact

Every aspect of human operations faces a wide range of risks, some of which can cause serious consequences. By the start of 21st century, mankind has recognized a new class of risks posed by climate change. It is obvious, that the global climate is changing, and will continue to change, in ways that affect the planning and day to day operations of businesses, government agencies and other organizations and institutions. The manifestations of climate change include but not limited to rising sea levels, increasing temperature, flooding, melting polar sea ice, adverse weather events (e.g. heatwaves, drought, and storms) and a rise in related problems (e.g. health and environmental). Assessing and managing climate risks represent one of the most challenging issues of today and for the future. The purpose of the risk modeling system discussed in this paper is to provide a framework and methodology to quantify risks caused by climate change, to facilitate estimates of the impact of climate change on various spheres of human activities and to compare eventual adaptation and risk mitigation strategies. The system integrates both physical climate system and economic models together with knowledge-based subsystem, which can help support proactive risk management. System structure and its main components are considered. Special attention is paid to climate risk assessment, management and hedging in the Arctic coastal areas.

The Tonsillectomy in children or adults is an intervention commonly encountered in the ENT (Ear Nose and Throat) and Head and Neck surgeon practice. The current tendency is to perform this type of surgery in major ambulatory surgery centers. Two objectives are thus pursued: first of all, the increase of the patient quality of life through the reintegration into the family as quickly as possible and secondly, the expenses associated with continuous hospitalization are reduced. Any tertiary (multidisciplinary) sleep center must ensure the complete diagnosis and treatment (including surgery) of sleep respiratory disorders. Under these conditions the selection of patients and especially the implementation of the specific protocols in order to control the postoperative complications it becomes essential. The present paper describes our experience of tonsillectomy as treatment for selected patients with chronic rhonchopathy (snoring) and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea. It was presented the impact of antibiotics protocols in reducing the main morbid outcomes following tonsillectomy, in our day surgery center. The obtained results can also be a prerequisite for the integrative approach of the patients with sleep apnoea who were recommended surgical treatment. Considering the wide range of therapeutic modalities used in sleep apnoea, each with its specific advantages and disadvantages, more extensive and multicenter studies are needed.
