Collaborative Efforts

This article highlights key characteristics of severe, long-term mental illness which present challenges for rehabilitation professionals. The authors discuss recovery, a biopsychosocial understanding of psychiatric disability, a three dimensional model for conceptualizing the course of severe, long-term mental illnesses, the rehabilitation process, and the role of the rehabilitation practitioner. The literature review points to the need for collaborative efforts to improve the quality and availability of rehabilitation services, including employment, for people with psychiatric disabilities. Authors present a call to action on key recommendations presented in literature across two decades.

Collaborative Efforts

A series of developmental experiential learning activities designed to give students increasingly more experience working with individuals with psychiatric disabilities is described. The benefits of including these types of activities within a psychiatric rehabilitation specialization in a rehabilitation counseling master's degree program are discussed. Activities that increase students' sensitivity to, experience with, and efficacy working with individuals with long-term mental illnesses can easily be included in other rehabilitation counseling education programs.

Existing Data

After a pioneering study of Jamaican coral reefs, the Cuban archipelago was the second to be surveyed by SCUBA for scleractinian corals and reef life to a depth of 90m, sampling all phenotypes.  Regrettably, the published data on the mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) of Cuba, collected 1970 to 1973, have been ignored.  This is also true for the published data on the MCEs of the Mexican Yucatán Peninsula, collected 1983 to 1984.  These two investigations described immense areas exhibiting a rich continuum of coral life, from shallow reefs into MCEs without scleractinian faunal break, and no depth-specialists species complex.  Instead, a morphological changeover of three-dimensional corallum into two-dimensional corallum was observed and documented.  The existing data on the Cuban and Mexican MCEs (now 45 and 34 years old, respectively) present a unique opportunity for long-term status and ecosystem trends analysis.  MCEs require terminological clarification from collaborative efforts to effectively use the globally available data.Investigaciones sobre ecosistemas coralinos mesofóticos en Cuba (1970-1973) y México (1983-1984)RESUMEN. Después de un estudio pionero en arrecifes de Jamaica sobre corales escleratinios y vida arrecifal, el archipiélago cubano fue el segundo que se estudió mediante buceo SCUBA a profundidades de hasta 90m, incluyendo muestras de todos los fenotipos. Infortunadamente, los datos publicados sobre ecosistemas coralinos mesofóticos (ECM), recabados entre 1970 y 1973 han sido soslayados, al igual que los datos publicados sobre los ECM de la Península de Yucatán, México, recabados entre 1983 y 1984.  Ambas investigaciones describen áreas inmensas que exhiben un rico continuo de vida coralina, desde arrecifes someros hasta ECM sin ruptura en la fauna escleratinia y sin complejos de especies especialistas de profundidad. En vez de esto, se observó y documentó un reemplazamiento de formas tridimensionales de corales por formas bidimensionales.  La información existente sobre ECM cubanos y mexicanos con antigüedades de 45 y 34 años, respectivamente ofrecen una oportunidad única para realizar análisis sobre estatus a largo plazo y tendencias de ecosistema.  Los ECM requieren aclaración terminológica de esfuerzos de colaboración para utilizar efectivamente los datos disponibles globalmente.

Currently, the reforestation process has a number of disadvantages, such as the need to use manual labor during the distribution and planting of seedlings; mechanisms for planting seedlings are often equipped with tractors as traction means. The creation of furrows and the preparation of the soil immediately before planting affects the energy consumption of the implements’ drives. At the moment, the inefficiency of planting work is high, since the planting of seedlings with a closed root system occurs in conjunction with a plow. All these factors, when calculated for a long-term period, lead to greater energy consumption when carrying out this type of work. This article discusses approaches to the mechanization of the planting process. Using the experience of planting seedlings with a closed root system (CCS) manually and analyzing the methods of mechanization of planting, it is possible to obtain maximum efficiency when carrying out this type of work. Based on the material studied, a prototype of a planting device suitable for the technology of discrete planting of seedlings with ZKS was selected. Solid modeling of the working body in the Solidworks computer-aided design system has been carried out. When designing the model, the possibility of its production using additive technology using the FDM printing method was envisaged.

Cyber Risk

Objective: We identify three risk-related behaviors in coping with cyber threats—the exposure to risk a person chooses, use of security features, and responses to security indications. The combinations of behaviors that users choose determine how well they cope with threats and the severity of adverse events they experience. Background: End users’ coping with risks is a major factor in cybersecurity. This behavior results from a combination of risk-related behaviors rather than from a single risk-taking tendency. Method: In two experiments, participants played a Tetris-like game, attempting to maximize their gains, while exogenous occasional attacks could diminish earnings. An alerting system provided indications about possible attacks, and participants could take protective actions to limit the losses from attacks. Results: Variables such as the costs of protective actions, reliability of the alerting system, and attack severity affected the three behaviors differently. Also, users dynamically adjusted each of the three risk-related behaviors after gaining experience with the system. Conclusion: The results demonstrate that users’ risk taking is the complex combination of three behaviors rather than the expression of a general risk-taking tendency. The use of security features, exposure to risk, and responses to security indications reflect long-term strategy, short-term tactical decisions, and immediate maneuvering in coping with risks in dynamic environments. Application: The results have implications for the analysis of cybersecurity-related decisions and actions as well as for the evaluation and design of systems and targeted interventions in other domains.

The Relationship

Based on the analysis to the characteristics of two kinds of rock steady creep curves, the nBurgers model that can describe the uniaxial creep properties of rock is presented. Considering the external influences on rock deformation as instantaneous elastic deterioration defined by the reduction of instantaneous elastic modulus and long-term creep deterioration defined by the reduction of long-term creep modulus, kBurgers model with deterioration is presented too. On this basis, three-dimensional model considering the Poisson’s ratio and Bulk modulus as the constant are established separately, and the relationship between their parameters is obtained. Finally, According to a calculation example, the deterioration evolution of model parameters considering water content changing under the assumption of constant bulk modulus is analyzed. In addition, the deterioration evolution equations of instantaneous elastic and long-term creep under the assumption of constant bulk modulus are obtained. It is verified that conversion relationships of model parameters are reasonable.

Despite the potential of the technique, electron tomography has yet to be widely used by biologists. This is in part related to the rather daunting list of equipment and expertise that are required. Thanks to continuing advances in theory and instrumentation, tomography is now more feasible for the non-specialist. One barrier that has essentially disappeared is the expense of computational resources. In view of this progress, it is time to give more attention to practical issues that need to be considered when embarking on a tomographic project. The following recommendations and comments are derived from experience gained during two long-term collaborative projects.Tomographic reconstruction results in a three dimensional description of an individual EM specimen, most commonly a section, and is therefore applicable to problems in which ultrastructural details within the thickness of the specimen are obscured in single micrographs. Information that can be recovered using tomography includes the 3D shape of particles, and the arrangement and dispostion of overlapping fibrous and membranous structures.
