Entrainment studies in cloud-like flows using novel scanning tomography technique
No full textClouds are one of the major sources of uncertainty in climate prediction.The present work is to study the dynamics of orographic clouds. We considered a planar turbulent wall jet with off source volumetric heating as an appropriate low order fluid-dynamical model for studying the turbulence and entrainment in orographic-clouds. Entrainment was found to reduce drastically with the off-source volumetric heat addition. We found that the reduction of entrainment started at a bulk-Richardson number which was an order of magnitude smaller than that seen in earlier experiments [1] on free standing cumulus clouds. This is consistent with observations in real orographic clouds which develop as a thin sheet rising along the mountain slope. We have developed a novel scanning tomography technique for getting concentration field in turbulent shear flows. This technique is being applied on cloud-like flow to understand the entrainment characteristics. Detailed results will be presented at the conference
Collaboration and interconnectivity: Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Services and higher education institutions in Nottingham
No full textThis paper will describe the developing relationship between Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Services and the two Higher Education Institutions in Nottingham. It will chronicle how a very traditional relationship has been transformed, initially by a simple consultancy project, into a much closer working relationship characterised by a much richer variety of collaborative projects. It demonstrates the potential mutual benefits that greater trust and reciprocity between the institutions can bring to both academia and to practice and the impact it has already had on curriculum development, teaching and learning in Nottingham

This article critically reviews paradigm shift in obstetrics over the last three decades regarding the diagnosis and treatment of some infections of female reproductive system during pregnancy. Screening algorithms and treatment approaches to vulvovaginal candidiasis and asymptomatic bacteriuria in the course of gestation approved by clinical protocols worldwide are compared. The article provides the basis for topical application of 2% clotrimazole cream in pregnant women with manifest vulvovaginal candidiasis or asymptomatic vaginal colonization with Candida spp. Novel findings demonstrate that this treatment potentially reduces the rate of preterm birth. Despite conflicting views on the screening for infections in pregnancy, the author argues the tests for asymptomatic bacteriuria after week 14 of pregnancy to prevent severe infections of the upper and lower urinary system and to reduce the risk of preterm birth. 3 g of per os fosfomycin trometalol (Fosfomycin Esparma) is re commended as the first-line choice for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnancy. This medication meets the requirements for drug safety and efficacy.
Keywords: pregnancy, preterm birth, vulvovaginal candidiasis, urinary infections, asymptomatic bacteriuria, clotrimazole, fosfomycin trometalol.

Performance Analysis of Farrow Structure Based FBMC-OQAM System
No full textAbstractFarrow structure is used in the efficient implementation of high order filters. The number of unknown coefficients is much less in Farrow structure based implementation, in comparison with the direct form implementation of FIR filters. Some predefined multipliers can also be used in this method. Since they are known apriori they will not add much to the complexity of the system. It is seen that a relatively strong correlation exists among the adjacent impulse response coefficients of the frequency selective filters. This fact is exploited in the Farrow structure to reduce the number of multipliers required for the implementation of desired filter. And these Farrow coefficients are used for representing the polyphase components of the desired filter. This Farrow structure based prototype filter is used for implementing an FBMC-OQAM system. BER performance of Farrow structure based FBMC-OQAM system is studied and found comparable with that of existing FBMC-OQAM system

Indian women, health, and productivity
No full textThe relationship between women's health and their (physical and economic) productivity is complex and multi-dimensional. It is characterized by"flows"in both directions and a host of intervening factors. Two simple statements summarize the major directional flows: (a) women's health affects their productivity; and (b) productivity affects women's health. In the latter case, women's own productivity, that of their households, and even that of larger units such as the local, regional or national economy may be implicated. Women's health is intricately linked with family health, and their productivity with family productivity and related characteristics. This paper documents the nature of these relationships, using available data on Indian women which relate to a variety of health indices, and construing"productivity"in the broadest possible way, including labor force participation, work output, income and so on. The overall purpose is to discuss women's health with the context of the need to improve both women's productivity and welfare. Women's health status, its determinants and consequences, are explored, leading ultimately to the identification of interventions required to improve it and thereby to improve women's productivity.Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Adolescent Health,Population&Development,Demographics,Early Child and Children's Health

Archaeological excavations in Phanagoria in 1852-1855 (based on an excavation journal of Begichev K.R.)
No full textИстория археологического изучения Фанагории насчитывает уже более двух столетий и изобилует неизвестными широкому кругу исследователей подробностями. Так, долгое время считался утраченным полевой дневник К.Р. Бегичева, в который исследователь заносил информацию о своих раскопках на территории Керченского и Таманского полуостровов в 1852-1855 гг. Относительно недавно подлинник дневника был найден в Архиве Керченского музея. В настоящее время этот документ готовится к публикации и недоступен для исследователей. В 2012 г. в Научно-ведомственном архиве ГИМа автором была обнаружена копия фрагмента дневника К.Р. Бегичева о раскопках городища и некрополей Фанагории. Эта копия была сделана в 1927-1928 гг. сотрудниками исследовательской группы Л.П. Харко в рамках возобновления археологического исследования «столицы» Азиатского Боспора. Поскольку под руководством К.Р. Бегичева были впервые предприняты раскопки городища и открыты уникальные погребальные комплексы, то информация из его полевого дневника представляется крайне важной для отечественного боспороведения.Історія археологічного вивчення Фанагорії нараховує вже більш двох століть та рясніє невідомими широкому колу дослідників подробицями. Так, довгий час вважався втраченим польовий щоденник К.Р. Бегічева, в який дослідник вносив інформацію про свої розкопи на території Керченського та Таманського півостровів у 1852 - 1855 рр. Відносно недавно оригінал щоденника був знайдений у Архіві Керченського музею. Нині цей документ готується до публікації та недоступний для дослідників. У 2012 р. у Науково-відомчому архіві ГІМу автором була виявлена копія фрагменту щоденника К.Р. Бегічева про розкопи городища та некрополів Фанагорії. Ця копія була зроблена у 1927-1928 рр. співробітниками дослідницької групи Л.П. Харко в рамках відновлення археологічного дослідження «столиці» Азіатського Боспору. Оскільки під керівництвом К.Р. Бегічева були вперше вжиті розкопи городища та відкриті унікальні похоронні комплекси, інформація з його польового щоденника представляється вкрай важливою для вітчизняного боспорознавства.The history of archaeological research of Phanagoria has more than two centuries and abounds details unknown to a wide range of researchers. So, a great while an excavation journal of Begichev K.R., in which the scientists recorded information about his excavations in the Kerch and Taman peninsulas in 1882-1855, was considered to have been lost. Relatively recently, the original journal has been found in the archives of the Kerch Museum. Currently, this document is being prepared for publication and is not available to researchers. In 2012, the author found a copy of a fragment of Begichev’s journal on excavation of the settlement and necropoleis of Phanagoria in the Scientific and departmental archives of the State Historical Museum. This copy was made in 1927-1928 by members of the research group of Kharco L.P., under renewed archaeological research the «capitals» of the Asian Bosporus. As Begichev K.R. made his first attempts to excavate the settlement and discovered unique funerary complexes, the information of his excavation journal is extremely important for the domestic studies of the Bosporus
