    Electrochemical and direct build up measurements of oxide deposition in accelerated flow

    No full text
    CRUD deposition is known to occur at high temperature in high purity hydrogenated water such as that typically used in a primary circuit of a pressurized water reactor (PWR), and is more severe in regions of accelerated flow. The deposition mechanism is debated, however electrokinetic effects are believed to induce a polarisation across the solution/metal interface and support a Faradaic deposition process. To verify this mechanism, a miniature cell was built to evaluate the effects of water chemistry and flow rate on CRUD deposition, and to determine whether it is possible to detect currents associated with the formation of CRUD. The investigations were carried out by monitoring the potential of different sections of the flow cell as a function of the flow rate and water chemistry. A series of electrochemical measurements were carried out by galvanically coupling different sections of the flow cell and autoclave flow loop, to identify the streaming current as well as the current distribution that can be responsible for the CRUD deposition. The net currents associated with CRUD build up were shown to be cathodic overall in the flow orifice, but it is also clear that this could allow for anodic and cathodic regions to coexist on a sample. Furthermore, the current component was found to be anodic in high purity water and cathodic in lithiated and hydrogenated water. The effects of water chemistry and flow conditions on the current distribution in the region of accelerated and decelerated flow are also discussed

    Track 1 Lightning Talk:Forking as a Tool for Software Sustainability—An Empirical Study

    No full text
    Forking—the process of cloning a repository, allowing development to progress separately to the original project— has become an important part of source control functionality. As forking enables software reuse, it has the potential to play a role in software sustainability, which aims to improve the longevity of software. We studied the relationship between forking and the sustainment, or active life, of a software project. An examination of 9,118 projects hosted on GitHub shows a significant relationship between forking and software sustainment, with projects that have forks being, on average, sustained for longer than those that do not, a phenomenon that is true when considering both the length of the original project, and the length of the original project extended by any forks. The results provide evidence that maintaining software via forking is a sustainable software practice, and making software open source improves its sustainability through enabling reuse via forkin

    Infant massage: the effect of touch for mother and baby

    No full text
    Parents across the globe have been massaging their babies for centuries. The popularity of infant massage in the Western World is a more recent phenomenon, a trend which has probably developed due to the perceived health benefits reported from more ancient practices. Within some eastern cultures infant massage is passed on from one family generation to the next. In western cultures it is more likely that new parents will attend a local baby massage class with an instructor. Whichever form the practice takes it is important to know that it is safe for the baby and that there is no potential for harm. This article will consider the perceived benefits of infant massage, how to massage, the role of the health professional and finally discuss whether we should be concerned about what products should be used for infant massage

    Novel Maximum Power Point Tracking Strategies for Electronically-Tuned Linear Alternators

    No full text
    Linear alternators (LAs) are widely applied in many energyconversion systems based on pressure waves, to avoid linearto rotary conversion mechanisms. The control of the LA is thekey element to maximize the system’s electric power andefficiency. However, the LA resonant frequency cannot beaccurately controlled by mechanical design due to parametertolerance. Furthermore, the operating frequency is generallynot strictly constant in real-time, making maximum powerpoint tracking (MPPT) hard to achieve. Two MPPT strategiesare proposed in this paper to adjust the electronic stiffnessamount in real-time. They are hereafter referred to assymmetrical signal injection method and electronic stiffnessperturbation method. The latter one is selected and validatedvia simulation studies. <br/

    Videovigilancia, control biométrico y seguimiento geolocalizado de trabajadores: Tratamiento de datos personales a la luz de la ley 21.719

    Processing personal data in the workplace is now a key challenge for labor law and corporate compliance. In Chile, labor doctrine has examined the extent of an employer’s control over fundamental rights. However, it has not systematically incorporated the constitutionally recognized right to informational self-determination, established in 2018. This right requires the use of data for control purposes to be legal, proportional, and transparent. This paper analyzes three frequent, high-risk regulatory activities: processing biometric data for attendance and access control, video surveillance, and using geolocation data while complying with the standard contained in Law N° 21.719. The paper identifies bases for legality and obligations of transparency, proportionality, and security. It warns that failure to comply with these rules may result in severe fines. The study proposes guidelines for reconciling corporate control powers with the new regulation and international standards.El tratamiento de datos personales en el ámbito laboral representa hoy un desafío clave para el derecho del trabajo y el compliance  corporativo. En  Chile, la doctrina laboral ha estudiado la potestad de control del empleador frente a derechos fundamentales, pero sin integrar de forma sistemática el derecho a la autodeterminación informativa, reconocido constitucionalmente desde el año 2018. Este derecho plantea exigencias de licitud, proporcionalidad y transparencia en el uso de datos con fines de control. Este trabajo analiza tres actividades frecuentes y de alto riesgo regulatorio: tratamiento de datos biométricos para control de asistencia y acceso, videovigilancia y uso de datos de geolocalización a la luz de las nuevas obligaciones contenidas en la ley N° 21.719. Se identifican bases de licitud, obligaciones de transparencia, proporcionalidad y seguridad, advirtiendo que la inobservancia de estas reglas puede implicar multas severas. El estudio propone lineamientos para compatibilizar las facultades de control empresarial con la nueva regulación y estándares internacionales
