    A Remote Area Power Supply (RAPS) Training Facility utilising SMA Sunny Island Inverter technology and National Instruments measurement package

    RAPS systems can sometimes be a cheaper alternative for supplying power than connection to a distant utility. Most assuredly it is a cleaner method of producing electricity than coal or gas constituents, provided the diesel generator is used minimally. A modern RAPS system will generally have several sources of generation, typically they might be; solar, wind and a diesel/petrol generator coupled with a battery to store excess power. The RAPS 2 system at Murdoch University was selected for an overhaul early in 2010. The system was redesigned to include new inverter technology from SMA. The new system relies on 3 separate inverters to convert the sources directly into grid quality electricity, as opposed to some traditional RAPS systems that would have most of its elements feed a DC bus that connected to a single inverter. This novel way of setting up a mini grid finds its niche in situations when the terrain or meteorological conditions make it impractical to have generation equipment all localised and a DC bus would have higher associated cable losses. For such a system to be of educational benefit to tertiary students, the variables within the system must be able to be monitored. To this end an advanced measurement system has been designed and procured so that every measurable point in the upgraded system is available for display. The measurement system was designed using National Instruments compact DAQ (data acquisition) hardware, one of the first of its type to be introduced to the university. The compact DAQ unit has been coupled with isolation equipment supplied by Dataforth, which already has an existing prevalence throughout the engineering department. The subsequent measurement program monitors 31 system variables at a high sampling rate to provide real time information on the state of the system. The measurement program also monitors relevant meteorological aspects such as the solar irradiance and local wind speed. This report documents and details the steps taken to set up a new and novel RAPS system. Discussed are the approaches taken throughout the semester to project manage and facilitate progress. A detailed description is also given of the measurement and protection system that has been designed to allow students and the general public to get a good grasp on the performance of the system

    Increasing salinity in Sea of Azov caused invasion alien species from the Black Sea. The invasion of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, a predator on zooplankton, into the Sea of Azov occurred in early 1980-ies, caused a reduction in biomass of zooplankton. Results of YugNIRO studies of pelagic fish food (zooplankton biomass and distribution) in the Azov Sea in 1993 are presented. In early spring zooplankton biomass was 80 mg/m super(3). In June, the intensity of zooplankton development sharply increased. The value of its biomass was 318 mg/m super(3) (four times as high as that in April), a multiannual average being 509 mg/m super(3). Comparing zooplankton biomass in June 1993 with that in the previous years (1988-1992) it can be noted that its biomass was lower than that in 1991 and 1992 by factors 3.7 and 2.5 respectively, but 13 and 4 times higher than in 1988 and 1989. The highest concentrations of zooplankton (1000-2500 mg/m super(3)) were found in the coastal waters and in the northwestern part of the sea. In July, zooplankton development was very intensive. On an average its biomass was 663 mg/m super(3), a long-term average value for July being 305 mg/m super(3). Zooplankton biomass in July 1993 was 12 times as high as its values for the preceding five years (1988-1992). In late July-early August, the plankton was plagued by massive appearance of the ctenophore. The plague of ctenophore was followed by drastic reduction in zooplankton biomass, which dwindled 16-fold as compared against that in June, and was 40 mg/m super(3). In August ctenophore reached a peak in numbers, while zooplankton biomass continued on the decline and was 6 mg/m super(3), a long-term average for that month being 257 mg/m super(3). As to zooplankton composition, the copepods were largely represented by the marine form of Acartia clausi; brackish water species (Calanipedia aqual dulcis) has minor value.В задачу исследований, проводимых ЮгНИРО в 1993 г., входило изучение состояния зоопланктона Азовского моря с целью оценки кормовой базы рыб. Наблюдения проводились в апреле, июне, июле, конце июля-начале августа, августе, сентябре. Ранней весной (в апреле) биомасса зоопланктона была выше, чем в 1992 г. и составила 80 мг/м3, при среднемноголетней величине 146 м г / м3 (годы после зарегулирования стока). Качественный состав был представлен очень бедно. По численности и биомассе доминировали коловратки рода Synchaeta, биомасса которых равнялась 79 мг/м3, что составляло 99% от общего количества планктона. Наиболее интенсивное развитие коловраток наблюдалось в северо-восточной половине моря (средняя биомасса 199 мг/м3). Значительно беднее были воды на западе, где биомасса коловраток колебалась от 2 до 27 мг/м3. В июне интенсивность развития зоопланктона резко возросла. По сравнению с апрелем величина биомассы увеличилась в 4 раза и составила 318 м г / м 3 при среднемноголетней величине 509 мг/м3. Сравнивая динамику развития зоопланктона в июне 1993 г. с динамикой прошлых лет (1988-1992 гг.), можно отметить, что биомасса зоопланктона была ниже в 3,7 и 2,5 раза, чем в 1991-1992 гг., но в 13 и 4 раза выше, чем в 1988-1989 гг. Участки с наибольшей концентрацией зоопланктона (величина биомассы 1000-2500 мг/м3) располагались в прибрежной и северо-западной частях моря. Качественный состав в июне характеризовался значительно большим разнообразием, чем в апреле. Доминировали в планктоне ценные в кормовом отношении веслоногие раки (63%), среди которых основная доля приходилась на Acartia clausi (58%). Наибольшее количество Acartia clausi встречалось на юго-западе и у северо-западных берегов, где биомасса её достигала 2130 и 1107 мг/м3, соответственно.Publishe

    Lethal outcomes in influenza: Clinic-pathological approach to immediate death causes

    Influenza is one of the most outspread infections not seldom leading to lethal outcomes. Immediate death causes are analyzed rarely. Material and methods. We provided clinic-pathological correlations in 23 cases with lethal outcomes in 1999, 15-in 2009, 31 in 2016 and 10 in 2017. Results. It was shown that in 2009 and 2017 most frequent lethal outcomes were related to bacterial superinfection in elderly people with severe background pathology. In 2009 and 2016 the leading role played respiratory distress syndrome predominantly in people of middle age, frequently with obesity. Conclusions: by circulation of different strains of influenza A virus the disease has substantial peculiarities. Lethal outcomes may be related: 1) severe respiratory insufficiency due to respiratory distress syndrome; 2) generalized viral infection; 3) secondary bacterial pneumonia; 4) aggravation of severe somatic diseases. Many aspects of pathogenesis need complex.study

    WebWriter: A System to Author and Remix Explorables – Requirements & First Prototype

    No full text
    Active and personalized learning requires that teachers can remix a wide variety of sources into new learning resources, which in turn may be customized by students. While this is well-supported for paper-oriented resources, multimodal, interactive learning resources for digital use, called explorables, are much more difficult to author and remix. In this paper, we derive a set of requirements for a system to author such explorables from a workshop-based study. We further present a first prototype of such a system, called “WebWriter”

    The study presents a number of new archaeological discoveries of Jewish artifacts and proposes a new reading of an already known inscription. Perani, author of Part I, describes a recently discovered Jewish bronze ring from Porto Torres, Sardinia, dating to late antiquity (4th-5th centuries e.v.), relating to similar Jewish rings, discovered in Sicily and Sardinia in the past. Colafemmina, author of Part II, presents his reading of the inscription of Anabatyya found in 1990 in Gerace, province of Reggio Calabria. Finally, M.S. Rizzo and A. Toscano Raffa describe a recently discovered Jewish funerary lamp with menorah from late Roman period (4th-5th centuries), just found in Licata (Sicily)
