Caulophacus (Caulophacus) chilense Reiswig & Araya, 2014, sp. n.
No full textCaulophacus (Caulophacus) chilense sp. n. (Figs. 1 & 2, Table 1) Material examined. Holotype: MNHNCL-POR 100, FV Juan Antonio, 0 7 January 2014, about 50 km NO of Caldera, Atacama Region, Chile. 26 ° 44 ’00” S; 71 °07’00” W, 1300–1800 m, dry. Description. The holotype (Fig. 1 A) is 320 mm in total length composed of an intact basal plate, 30 x 51 mm in widths, which was attached to hard substratum, a thin hollow curved stem 277 mm long, surmounted by a body 28 mm in height. The stem varies in diameter from 5.0 mm near the basal attachment to 8.4 mm just below the body; the lumen at the broken point 9 cm above the base is 2.0 mm in diameter and the wall is 1.5 mm in thickness. Loose spicules are absent from a few mm below the body attachment to its base. The body (Fig. 1 B) is a shallow funnel, 81 x 65 mm in diameters with a central depression of 10.4 mm. It is two mm thick at its rounded margin and 20 mm thick at the center. The upper (atrial) body surface (Fig. 1 C) is relatively smooth, covered by a very fine, inconspicuous, felt-like lattice of atrial spicules (Fig. 1 D). The lateral (dermal) surface (Fig. 1 E) is more transparent, with a conspicuous network of white strands of upward radiating choanosomal diactins surrounding large inhalant canals seen through the surface lattice (Fig. 1 E). The overlying lattice of dermalia and hypodermalia (Fig. 1 F) is thin and quite regular in arrangement. A marginal fringe is not evident at the junction of dermal and atrial surfaces. Color of the dry specimen is very light tan. Megascleres are dermal pinular hexactins and rare pentactins, atrial pinular hexactins and rare pentactins, choanosomal and stalk diactins, hypodermal and hypoatrial pentactins, and choanosomal hexactins. Spicule dimensions are given in Table 1. Dermalia are pinular hexactins and rare pentactins (Fig. 2 A) with bushy spindleshaped distal ray and entirely rough tangential and proximal rays. The pinular ray is quite variable in shape with a few ovoid in profile. Maximum thickness occurs at 65 % of the distance from the axial cross. About 4 % of these are pentactins. Atrialia (Fig. 2 B) are similar but slightly smaller than dermalia in mean dimensions and especially in maximum width of the pinular ray. The pinular rays of both dermalia and atrialia lack apical spines, their tips being gently rounded in profile. Choanosomal diactins of the body (Fig. 2 C) are slightly curved and have rounded, occasionally inflated, rough terminal ends with smooth caps. The central swelling is generally inconspicuous. The diactins of the stalk are fused by synapticula to form a rigid framework; they are larger than the free body diactins but otherwise similar. Hypodermalia (Fig. 2 D) are large regular oxypentactins, some of which bear macrospines near the base of their tapered rays: of 42 spicules examined, 45 % were entirely smooth, 19 % bore such spines only on proximal rays and 36 % had spines on both tangential and proximal rays. Rays end with subterminal roughness behind a smooth rounded cap. Hypoatrialia (Fig. 2 E) are much smaller, mean tangential rays are 62 % of those of dermalia. These spicules have macrospines on all tangential and proximal rays. Tangential ray ends are sharply pointed and rough. Choanosomal hexactins (Fig. 2 F) are larger than the hypodermalia and hypoatrialia. Their rays generally all bear macrospines (96 % of 168) but a few have them restricted to one short ray (1 %) and some bear no macrospines at all (2 %). Ray tips are rough and abruptly pointed. Microscleres are discohexactins (91 % of 200), hemidiscohexasters (5.5 %) and two forms of discohexasters (together 3.5 %). The discohexactins (Fig. 2 G) are generally regular with thorned rays ending in large semianchorate tips with 5–6 marginal claws. Occasionally one ray is bent back and very rarely the terminal disc is reduced to a single pointed hook. The hemidiscohexasters (Fig. 2 H) are similar to the discohexactins but one or more rarely two or three rays are divided near their origin into two terminal rays. Discohexasters A (Fig. 2 I) are as robust as the discohexactins but rare (0.2 %); each primary ray is divided near its origin into two or three terminal rays. Discohexasters B (Fig. 2 G) are much smaller and thinner than all other microscleres, are rare (3 %) and are restricted to the atrial side of the body. They have short primary rays divided into 2–5 straight terminal rays ending in small discs with 4–6 marginal claws. This spicule was not located in SEM preparations hence a light micrograph (Fig. 2 J) is used to document their occurrence and form. Etymology. The species name, chilense, refers to the location of collection: Chile. Remarks. The new specimen described here lacks onychoidal and oxyoidal microscleres and thus is excluded from the subgenera Caulodiscus Ijima 1927, Oxydiscus Janussen et al. 2004 and Caulophacella Lendenfeld 1915; it is assignable only to subgenus Caulophacus Schulze 1885. Within the subgenus, it cannot be assigned to C. antarcticus Schulze and Kirkpatrick 1910, C. basispinosus Lévi 1964, or C. galathea Lévi 1964 since these three species lack discohexasters. It is excluded from 13 species which possess lophodiscohexasters characterized by having four or more terminal rays on each primary ray: C. arcticus (Hansen, 1885), C. cyanae Boury-Esnault and De Vos 1988, C. discohexactinus Janussen et al. 2004, C, discohexaster Tabachnick and Lévi 2004, C. elegans Schulze 1885, C. hadalis Lévi 1964, C. instabilis Topsent 1910, C. latus Schulze 1886, C. oviformis Schulze 1886, C. pipetta (Schulze 1886), C. schulzei Wilson 1904, C. scotiae Topsent 1910 and C. variens Tabachnick 1988. Since the discohexactins of the new form are considerably less than 200 µm, it cannot be a member of the two species C. adakensis Reiswig and Stone 2013 or C. agassizi Schulze 1899. Finally, it is separated from C. abyssalis Tabachnick 1990 by the pinular rays of dermalia differing drastically in shape in the two forms and having a single length range instead of two size classes of those rays (126–299 µm in the new form vs 100–180 µm and 320–400 µm in C. abyssalis). Based upon these and many other differences from the presently recognized members of the subgenus, it is clear that the form described here is a new species designated here as Caulophacus (Caulophacus) chilense sp. n. Associated fauna only include the verrucid cirripedian Gibbosaverruca sp., with three specimens growing on the stalk of the new Caulophacus species; these barnacles are currently under description (Araya & Newman in preparation).Published as part of Reiswig, Henry M. & Araya, Juan Francisco, 2014, A review of the Hexactinellida (Porifera) of Chile, with the first record of Caulophacus Schulze, 1885 (Lyssacinosida: Rossellidae) from the Southeastern Pacific Ocean, pp. 414-428 in Zootaxa 3889 (3) on pages 419-423, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3889.3.4, http://zenodo.org/record/22902

Effects of different aerodynamic configurations on crosswind stability of a conventional train
No full textCrosswind stability studies have been multiplied since the 90s due to the increase in speed and the continuous weight reduction of the railway vehicles. At beginning, most of the attention was devoted to high-speed trains but recent studies have shown also conventional trains that runs at considerably lower speeds may also have a high risk of overturning due to crosswind. In this study, a conventional train designed by CAF has been analysed to evaluate the impact that different roof and underbodies have on the aerodynamic performance of the train. In the Wind Tunnel of Politecnico di Milano, a modular scaled model was tested to determine the aerodynamic coefficients of the different train configurations. Moreover, the procedure described in the European Standard EN14067-6 to assess train stability under crosswind was applied to evaluate the Characteristic Wind Curve (CWC) using time-dependent multibody simulations and the ‘Chinese hat’ wind time history for each train composition. Results have shown a significant improvement is obtained for some configurations, especially when the roof is closed covering the roof equipment with an increment of around 4 m/s on characteristic wind speed
Lilloiconcha lopezi Araya & Aliaga, 2015, new species
No full textLilloiconcha lopezi new species Figs. 1 A– 1 E. Diagnosis. Shell small, trochoid, slightly wider than high, with elevated spire; nearly five whorls, colored in bands of translucent caramel brown and white. Protoconch with 1.5 whorls, smooth. Teleoconch with about one hundred prosocline ribs (about 23 on last whorl), interspersed with many fine riblets; aperture circular, umbilicus ample and well developed. Description. Shell small (measuring up to 3.8 mm in width), trochoid, spire slightly elevated, shell height about 0.4 of shell width; with five and a half to six convex whorls. Protoconch clearly differentiated from teleoconch; of about one and a half whorls; almost smooth, sculptured only with very faint spiral threads, most noticeable near the sutures. Teleoconch of about four and a half whorls, sculptured with 96 to 104 prosocline coarse axial ribs, 21–24 of them on last whorl, with interspaces filled by about 15 to 21 slightly raised riblets; very faint irregular nodulae at their intersection with vestigial spiral threads, noticeable especially towards the sutures; suture deep and well-marked; aperture 0.4 of shell height, oval to almost circular; lip simple, callus a mere glaze; umbilicus very ample, deep, of about 0.3–0.4 of shell width; periostracum thin, projecting on the most prominent axial ribs; shell colored with alternating axial bands of translucent caramel brown and white. Animal unknown. Type material. Holotype: SBNHM 456358, paratypes: SBNHM 452239 (3 specimens), MPCCL 0 1572015 (2 specimens). All the material collected at the type locality by J. F. Araya & C. López, 0 3 th February 2014. Type locality. Los Molles (32 º 14 ’ S; 71 º 31 ’ W, 31 m), Commune of La Ligua, Region of Valparaíso, central Chile. Distribution and habitat. Only known from the type locality; the shells were found buried in humus and underneath stones, large boulders and rotten leaves. Etymology. Named in honor of our friend Christian López (Santiago, Chile). Remarks. The relationship of the new species with presumptive congeneric species from elsewhere in South America is still unknown; unfortunately all of the material consists only of empty shells and the diagnostic aspects of the anatomy, especially that of the penis, epiphallus and marginal radular teeth, are unknown. Hausdorf (2005) noted that although the protoconch of species in the genus appear to be smooth, it has spiral microsculpture when viewed in detail. This characteristic is apparent in the detail of the unworn sections of Fig. 1 E for the new species. Lilloiconcha lopezi is one of the largest species within the genus Lilloiconcha Thiele, 1927; among the congeneric species, only the Brazilian Lilloiconcha superba (Weyrauch, 1965) can be compared with the new species in size or morphometry; however it differs from Lilloiconcha lopezi in having a more elongated shell, with more whorls, less axial ribs (70 in L. superba and about a hundred in the new species) and a much smaller umbilicus (Miquel et al. 2007). Lilloiconcha tucumana Hylton Scott 1963, the type species of the genus, found in Tucumán, Horco Molle, northern Argentina, has a higher but comparatively smaller and much narrower shell, with more whorls (Fernández & Castellanos 1973). The new species differs from Lilloiconcha aysensis Miquel & Barker, 2009 —the only other Chilean species in the genus, described from Puerto Chacabuco, Aysén, about 1470 km from Los Molles—in having a much larger shell with a higher profile, sculptured with fewer and smaller axial ribs and in having an oval to almost circular aperture (which is subcircular and narrower in L. aysensis). This new species thus extends the distribution in Chile of the genus Lilloiconcha, previously known from the southern regions, to Los Molles, central Chile. Advancing our knowledge of the terrestrial malacological fauna in Chile is of high conservation importance given the ongoing increase in the introduction (or recognition) of nonindigenous or invasive land snails to the country, some of them a direct threat to micromollusks (Araya 2015). Further sampling in northern or central Chile will probably reveal more snail species to be discovered and described.Published as part of Araya, Juan Francisco & Aliaga, Juan Antonio, 2015, A new species of Lilloiconcha Weyrauch, 1965 (Pulmonata: Charopidae) from central Chile, pp. 295-297 in Zootaxa 4007 (2) on pages 295-296, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4007.2.13, http://zenodo.org/record/24385
A Speed-Dependent Condition Monitoring System for Track Geometry Estimation Using Inertial Measurements
No full textIn this paper, a methodology to predict the track longitudinal level using bogie vertical acceleration from in-service vehicles is proposed. To account for the effect of vehicle speed, the acceleration levels are double integrated on-board the vehicle. Synthetic indicators like the RMS are then computed over predefined track sections of 100 m, to reduce the amount of data to be stored and analysed. Then, a linear regression model between the double integrated indicators and the direct track geometry measurements collected by a TRV is built, to verify the degree of correlation of the two quantities. To this end, data collected during a long-term monitoring campaign along the Italian railway network are considered. The regression model is finally adopted to predict the RMS of the longitudinal level using the signals collected on-board the vehicle. The comparison between the redicted and measured data is shown to be promising towards the possibility of condition monitoring of the track geometry both on high-speed and conventional lines
Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
No full textThe prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region
