Comparing the inviscid and viscous flows in a shock tube to analyze the boundary layer effects
No full textThe purpose of the present work is to analyze the effects of viscosity in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Undergraduate Laboratory shock tube at a pressure ratio (p4/p1) of approximately 1.54. Ten tests were performed at this ratio to check for consistency in the system. The experimental results from this facility were compared with results obtained from the typical shock tube equations, as well as computer simulations in Matlab and GASP. Among these methods, GASP was the only one which took viscosity into consideration. Multiple simulations were run with this program to determine the appropriate grid size (coarse or fine), as well as compare the inviscid and viscous results. The other methods (theory and Matlab) assumed a one-dimensional inviscid flow for simplification of the computation. The results showed that all of the data from the latter three methods matched relatively well for the flow in the center of the shock tube. However, near the wall, the viscous GASP computation showed a variation in density, temperature, and velocity, while the others remained at a constant value. This is due to the no-slip boundary condition at the walls used for the viscous flow. By taking a specific point along the shock tube with viscous flow and comparing the velocity profiles from when the incident wave and when the reflected wave passes, it was discovered that a wall jet was created in the boundary layer. This jet moves in the opposite direction of the mainstream flow and at a much higher speed (more than 20~m/s greater).M.S.Includes bibliographical references (p. 105-106)by Christel M. Seite

On the choice of the mesh for the analysis of geostatistical data using R-INLA
No full textMany methods used in spatial statistics are computationally demanding, and so, the development of more computationally efficient methods has received attention. A important development is the integrated nested Laplace approximation method which is carry out Bayesian analysis more efficiently This method, for geostatistical data, is done considering the SPDE approach that requires the creation of a mesh overlying the study area and all the obtained results depend on it. The impact of the mesh on inference and prediction is investigated through simulations. As there is no formal procedure to specify it, we investigate a guideline to create an optimal mesh.The first author acknowledge the financial support of the "Ciencia sem Fronteiras" program of CNPq (Brazil) under the process number 200573/2015-2.

Abstract
Different sports require elevated visual-spatial and related cognitive abilities, which are increasingly recognized as crucial not only for athletic performance but also for broader public health implications. Sex-related differences in these abilities have often been explained through both biological and sociocultural factors, with males traditionally described as having superior visual-spatial skills. However, fewer studies have investigated how targeted physical training can enhance these abilities in women. This study aimed to analyze the influence of two different cycling interval training exercises on visual-spatial ability in women. Seventy-two healthy, active, and young women engaged in (1) a High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) session followed by a cognitive training (CT); or (2) a Low-Volume Interval Training (LVIT) session followed by a CT; or (3) a cognitive (COG) session, consisting of listening to music followed by a CT; or (4) a control (CTRL) session, consisting of solely listening to music. Cognitive performance was assessed at baseline and after the training sessions using the Metzler and Shepard Test (MS), the Paper Folding and Cutting Test (PFC), and the Mental Rotation Test (MRT). No significant between-group differences were observed. However, in all groups the time to complete the PFC and MRT tests was significantly lower and the number of errors was significantly smaller for the PFC test in the post-test compared with the pre-test. These findings expand the current literature by demonstrating that interval training, whether high intensity or low volume, when combined with cognitive training, may improve certain aspects of visual-spatial cognitive performance in healthy, active, young women. These findings highlight the potential of combining structured exercise with cognitive challenges. Such interventions may promote cognitive health in women and contribute to long-term public health outcomes
Editorial: childhood stress and psychopathology: it’s not too early to look at biological aging
No full textThere has been growing interest in the associations among biological aging, stress, and psychopathology. Biological aging reflects an individual's functional and biological condition, and one of the indicators is telomere length. Telomeres consist of DNA repeats at chromosome ends. It is a normal process that telomeres shorten during the lifespan, but this process can be accelerated and result in biological aging associated with morbidity and mortality.
Genetics and psychiatric disorders: Heritability and the search for genes Genetica en psychische stoornissen op de kinderleeftijd: Erfelijkheid en de zoektocht naar genen
No full textBACKGROUND: Much of the research is focused on the role that genetic factors play in the development of psychiatric disorders during childhood and adolescence. AIM: To present an overview of the heritability of these disorders and to describe the current state of the search for specific genetic variants. METHOD The results of (mainly) Dutch studies in this area are summarised. RESULTS: It is estimated that about 60-70% of externalising symptoms and about 40-50% of internalising symptoms are heritable. No genes have yet been identified which influence psychiatric disorders in children. It is clear, however, that even in children, psychiatric symptoms are polygenic, i.e. influenced by many genetic variants, each having a small effect. CONCLUSION: Research on the role of genetic factors is advancing rapidly even in child psychiatry. When sample sizes are enlarged, it should be possible to identify genetic variants
