Social cash transfers (SCTs) are considered a priority in least-developed countries, where the gap between the need for basic social protection and existing provisions is greatest. This study represents one of the first comprehensive treatments of the impact of social cash transfers in low-income sub-Saharan Africa, and the first for Zambia's oldest SCT scheme. The results, based on propensity score matching and fully efficient odds-weighted regression, and data from the Kalomo SCT pilot scheme, confirm positive SCT effects on per capita consumption expenditure. We also discover threshold effects with SCT mostly impacting food expenditure among poorer beneficiary households and non-food expenditure among wealthier beneficiaries.
In diesem Paper wird das abbildende Millimeterwellen-Radarsystem SAMMI® (Stand Alone MilliMeter wave Imager) des Fraunhofer-Institutes für Hochfrequenzphysik und Radartechnik FHR vorgestellt. SAMMI ist ein CW System welches bei einer Messfrequenz von 78 GHz die Proben in Transmission vermisst. Durch ein Endlosband wird ein kontinuierlicher Materialstrom sichergestellt, wobei ein DIN A4 Blatt innerhalb von 20 s durchleuchtet wird. SAMMI besitzt die Größe eines durchschnittlichen Laserdruckers wodurch es leicht zu transportieren und in wenigen Minuten einsatzbereit ist. Die mittels SAMMI erfassten Messdaten, können bereits während der Datenerfassung mit verschiedenen bereits vorinstallierten Verfahren aufbereitet und analysiert werden. Zu den integrierten Algorithmen in SAMMI® gehören unter anderen Verfahren zum 2D-Phase Unwrapping-, Cluster- und Rekonstruktions-Algorithmen zur Berechnung der Materialparameter. Die offene Softwareschnittstelle erlaubt auch die Implementierung eigener Verfahren auf der mitgelieferten Computer-Hardware. Mit den integrierten Algorithmen bietet SAMMI® eine Vielzahl an Möglichkeiten um z.B. Verunreinigungen in Materialien zu detektieren oder Schwankungen im Fertigungsprozess frühzeitig zu identifizieren. Desweiteren ist SAMMI® eine optimale Ausbildungsplattform in den Bereichen der industriellen Bildverarbeitung mittels Hochfrequenzsensoren. Insbesondere können Verfahren für unterschiedliche Anwendungen getestet bzw. für Anwendungen weiterentwickelt werden. Es werden konkrete Beispiele aus dem Bereich der Qualitätssicherung erläutert und Möglichkeiten des Gerätes und der Millimeterwellen-Technologie für die zerstörungsfreie Prüfung in Detail beschrieben.
We are happy to present you the special issue on Best Practice in Robot Software Development of the Journal on Software Engineering for Robotics! The spark for this special issue came during the eighth workshop on Software Development and Integration in Robotics (SDIR) at the 2013 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. The workshop focused on Robot Software Architectures, and the fruitful discussions made it clear that the design, development, and deployment of robot software is always an interplay between competing aspects. These are often couched in antagonistic pairs, such as dependability versus performance, and prominently include quality attributes as well as functional, nonfunctional, and application requirements.
We investigated graphene structures grafted with fullerenes. The size of the graphene sheets ranges from 6400 to 640,000 atoms. The fullerenes (C60 and C240) are placed on top of the graphene sheets, using different impact velocities we could distinguish three types of impact. Furthermore, we investigated the changes of the vibrational properties. The modified graphene planes show additional features in the vibronic density of states.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are matrix-degrading enzymes that are over-expressed in joints of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. However, the contribution of specific MMPs for the development of arthritic joints is unknown. This study is aimed at studying the role of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in mice, using the K/BxN serum-transfer model of RA. Arthritis was induced in Balb/c mice by injecting K/BxN serum. Development of arthritis was followed in these mice by measuring ankle thickness and clinical index score. MMP-9 expression in the joints of mice killed at various time points during the disease progression was determined by gelatin zymography using ankle lysates. We found that MMP-9 expression increased with the severity of arthritis. Importantly MMP-9 deficient mice injected with K/BxN serum showed a milder form of arthritis in comparison to the control C57BL/6 mice injected with K/BxN serum. We therefore conclude that MMP-9 promotes arthritis in mice.
Gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection (FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with electron impact ionization (EI) and chemical ionization (PCI and NCI) were successfully used for separation and identification of commercially available longchain primary alkyl amines. The investigated compounds were used as corrosion inhibiting and antifouling agents in a water-steam circuit of energy systems in the power industry. Solidphase extraction (SPE) with octadecyl bonded silica (C18) sorbents followed by gas chromatography were used for quantification of the investigated Primene JM-T™ alkyl amines in boiler water, condensate and superheated steam samples from the power plant. Amine formulations from Kotamina group favor formation of protective layers on internal surfaces and keep them free from corrosion and scale. Alkyl amines contained in those formulations both render the environment alkaline and limit the corrosion impact of ionic and gaseous impurities by formation of protective layers. Moreover, alkyl amines limit scaling on heating surfaces of boilers and in turbine, ensuring failure-free operation. Application of alkyl amine formulation enhances heat exchange during boiling and condensation processes. Alkyl amines with branched structure are more thermally stable than linear alkyl amines, exhibit better adsorption and effectiveness of surface shielding. As a result, application of thermostable long-chain branched alkyl amines increases the efficiency of anti-corrosive protection. Moreover, the concentration of ammonia content in water and in steam was also considerably decreased.
