Leading the way to a safer workplace: What enables supervisors to be servant leaders and enhance subordinates workplace safety behaviors?

Author(s): Chen YP; Hsu YS; Panaccio A; Wang H;

Introduction: Drawing on the Motivation-Ability-Opportunity (MAO) framework and social information processing (SIP) theory, we hypothesized that supervisors demonstrate the highest level of servant leadership when their prosocial motivation (motivation), perspective taking (ability), and perceived collaborative-based HR configuration (opportunity) are all ...

A review on indoor airborne transmission of COVID-19- modelling and mitigation approaches

Author(s): Rayegan S; Shu C; Berquist J; Jeon J; Zhou LG; Wang LL; Mbareche H; Tardif P; Ge H;

In the past few years, significant efforts have been made to investigate the transmission of COVID-19. This paper provides a review of the COVID-19 airborne transmission modeling and mitigation strategies. The simulation models here are classified into airborne transmission infectious risk models and numerical approaches for spatiotemporal airborne transm ...

Adaptive finite-time synchronized control of multi-robotic fiber placement system with model uncertainties and disturbances

Author(s): Zhang R; Wang Y; Xie W; Li P; Tan H; Jiang Y;

The use of multiple robots to manufacture composite components represents a critical development direction for fiber placement systems (FPSs). In multi-robotic fiber placement systems (MRFPSs) with heterogeneous mechanical structures, robots collaborate to perform fiber placement tasks. Consequently, robot synchronization emerges as a primary factor in de ...

Trilingual families language strategies: potential predictors and effect on trilingual exposure

Author(s): Quirk E; Hadeed N; Byers-Heinlein K;

Family language strategies are approaches that parents adopt for language use with their multilingual children. In bilingual contexts, these strategies influence children's language exposure and development (Macleod et al., 2022). In the more complex context of trilingualism, how families settle on strategies and their relationship with exposure may d ...

Distributed adaptive sliding mode control with deep recurrent neural network for cooperative robotic system in automated fiber placement

Author(s): Zhu N; Xie WF;

In this article, a distributed control strategy using an adaptive sliding mode controller (ASMC) is proposed for a 13-degree-of-freedom (13-DOF) cooperative robotic system in the field of automated fiber placement (AFP). A distributed control structure with event-triggered mechanism is developed to guarantee the desired cooperation performance and reduce ...

Repurposing Sigma-1 Receptor-Targeting Drugs for Therapeutic Advances in Neurodegenerative Disorders

Author(s): Eskandari K; Bélanger SM; Lachance V; Kourrich S;

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease, due to their multifaced and complicated nature, remain uncurable and impose substantial financial and human burdens on society. Therefore, developing new innovative therapeutic strategies is vital. In this context, drug repurposing has emerged as a promisi ...

Real-time motion detection using dynamic mode decomposition

Author(s): Mignacca M; Brugiapaglia S; Bramburger JJ;

Dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) is a numerical method that seeks to fit time-series data to a linear dynamical system. In doing so, DMD decomposes dynamic data into spatially coherent modes that evolve in time according to exponential growth/decay or with a fixed frequency of oscillation. A widespread application of DMD has been to video, where one inter ...

The enterobactin biosynthetic intermediate 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid is a competitive inhibitor of the Escherichia coli isochorismatase EntB

Author(s): Bin X; Pawelek PD;

The Escherichia coli enterobactin biosynthetic protein EntB is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of isochorismate via its N-terminal isochorismatase (IC) domain, and then transfers phosphopantetheinylated 2,3-DHB to EntF via the EntB C-terminal aryl carrier protein (ArCP) domain. Here we used a fluorescence anisotropy binding assay to invest ...

Development and validation of the multidimensional Fear of Depression Recurrence Questionnaire (FoDRQ)

Author(s): Gumuchian ST; Boyle A; Kennedy G; Wong SF; Ellenbogen MA;

Despite high recurrence rates in major depressive disorder (MDD), little is known about the factors influencing recurrence. Understanding the changes that occur between major depressive episodes (MDEs) is imperative. It is possible that being fearful of experiencing another MDE may lead to cognitive and behavioural changes that increase MDD recurrence ris ...

Konjac glucomannan (KGM) aerogel immobilized microalgae: A new way for marine oil spills remediation

Author(s): Wang X; Du Z; Song Z; Liu M; He P; Feng L; Chen Z; Chen Q;

This study investigated the oil pollution remediation ability of konjac glucomannan (KGM) aerogel immobilized Chlorella vulgaris LH-1 (C. vulgaris). The KGM aerogel exhibited a high porosity of 86.83 %, and with the change of crude oil concentration (1-10 g/L), the crude oil adsorption efficiency of KGM aerogel was up to 18.75 %. The KGM aerogel carrier e ...
