This case report describes an 80-year-old woman who presented with altered mental status and urinary incontinence. She underwent a lumbar puncture that accidentally resulted in massive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) overdrainage of 250 mL. Shortly after, she developed multiple simultaneous intracerebral hemorrhages in both supra- and infratentorial regions on CT scan. She became comatose and died within a week. This is the first reported case of massive CSF drainage causing multiple simultaneous intracerebral hemorrhages. The overdrainage likely caused a reduction in CSF volume and intracranial pressure, increasing vessel wall stress and risk of hemorrhage.

This document discusses the concept of representation in media studies. It begins by defining representation as how media depict or describe people, places, and events to call them up in our minds. This is done through a process of mediation where reality is altered and changed into a media text. When analyzing representations, it is important to look at how they are selected, organized, and focus attention in particular ways. Representations do not show objective reality but rather symbolize and substitute for reality. They affect how audiences perceive people and issues in society. Different views see representations as reflecting society, intentionally shaping society, or actively constructing social meanings. Stereotypes are oversimplified representations that leave out diversity.

FSM 8108 VITE presented at Spie Optics Photonics 2017Wojtek Walecki
Frontier Semiconductor is introducing a new metrology tool, the FSM 8108 VITE, which uses a novel Fabry Perot fringe stretching system to improve on their existing FSM 413 tool. The FSM 8108 VITE allows for faster, more accurate thickness measurements of semiconductor structures from 5 um to 3 mm thick on both stationary and moving wafers. It functions by adding an element of known optical thickness to reflected light from the sample, producing interference patterns that reveal the difference between the sample's thickness and the known thickness element. This enables thickness measurements with a small spectrometer without needing high resolution. The tool is expected to improve throughput for applications like measuring patterned layers, bonded wafers, bumped wafers
High-frequency microwave pulses issued by the guided wave radar propagate along detection components (steel cable or steel rod), met the media to be measured, since the dielectric constant of the mutation, cause reflections, a portion of the pulse energy is reflected back. Transmit pulse and the reflected pulse is proportional to the distance and the time interval measured media.

Shear Wave Tomography for Quality Control of Concrete Ali Osman Öncel
The document describes an ultrasonic echo-pulse tomography method for testing concrete using low-frequency phased antenna arrays. It summarizes the operating principles of the A1040M MIRA tomograph, which uses 40 dry-point contact shear wave transducers to perform pulse-echo tomography on concrete structures from 20-150 kHz. Test results are processed using the SAFT algorithm to build 3D models of internal reflections. Application examples show the tomograph can accurately detect features smaller than the wavelength like pipes and delaminations in concrete, and assess tunnel panel grouting quality.
1) The document discusses the differences between long range ultrasonic testing (LRUT) and medium range ultrasonic testing (MRUT) for inspecting pipelines. LRUT uses lower frequencies to inspect over longer distances, while MRUT uses higher frequencies to inspect shorter distances but with higher sensitivity.
2) It describes a new technique using MRUT with shear horizontal guided waves for circumferential scanning to inspect inaccessible areas like under pipe supports. This provides better detection and resolution than LRUT within close proximity to defects.
3) The new technique uses a magnetostrictive strip adhered around the pipe that is scanned by a single transducer scanner to perform circumferential inspections and complement LRUT for inspecting shorter

The document discusses using three-dimensional ultrasonic inspection to identify defects in high-thickness pipelines that could not be detected using traditional radiography methods due to the thickness. Three-dimensional ultrasonic inspection of slag catcher pipelines in a South Pars phase identified lack of sidewall fusion, lack of sidewall root, and cracks not observed in radiographic films. Three-dimensional ultrasonic provides higher accuracy than radiography for defect sizing in thick pipelines and enables detection of critical defects preventing risks. While more advanced than traditional methods, three-dimensional ultrasonic also has limitations like cost and need for skilled operators that require addressing for wider application.

The document discusses thickness measurement on the calender during tire manufacturing. Rubber is applied to fabric by calender rolling to create a uniform layer for high quality tires. Laser-based optical sensors called optoNCDT are positioned above and below the coated fabric web to measure thickness as it exits the calender, as measurement is not possible on the rolls themselves. The sensors provide non-contact, high-precision measurement of the structured, black rubber coating and are protected from high temperatures by cooled housing.
005 characterization-of-yarn-diameter-measured-on-differentaqeel ahmed
This document summarizes a study that characterized yarn diameter measured using different instruments. Several commercial instruments were used to measure yarn diameter including the Uster tester 4, Lawson Hemphill YAS system, QQM3, and optical microscope. The data obtained from these instruments was analyzed using the D-yarn program which found that yarn diameter often has a bimodal distribution, in contrast to Uster tester results that assume a normal distribution. Further analysis of test data from one yarn found significant differences between the Uster histogram and results from the D-yarn program, which fitted the data to a two Gaussian distribution revealing the bimodal nature of the yarn diameter.

This document summarizes research on characterizing yarn diameter using different measurement techniques. Several commercial instruments and laboratory methods are described that use optical, capacitive, or combined principles to measure yarn diameter and irregularity. Data from tests on various yarns using Uster Tester 4, QQM-3, and Lawson-Hemphill systems were analyzed using a MATLAB program. The program revealed the yarn diameter data was better characterized by a bimodal rather than normal distribution, highlighting limitations of some commercial instrument analyses. Further analysis of the bimodal data distribution provided more detailed information about yarn diameter characteristics.

Combination Of The Non-Destructive Methods For Evaluating The Quality Of Conc...IJERA Editor
The study is aboutthe use and comparison of three non-destructive methods (dynamic auscultation, sclerometric auscultation and auscultation by RADAR (Radio Detecting and Ranging) to monitor and assess the quality of concrete. Samples of reinforced concrete panels, dimensions 200x100x30 cm of concrete dosed at 350 kg/m3 with diverse E/C ratio were achieved, conserved in the laboratory and subjected to various non-destructive test. The synthesis of the results obtained by auscultation RADAR shows a decrease in the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave with an increase of the E/C ratio and a decrease in resistance of concrete values measured and confirmed by other non-destructive techniques (sclerometric and dynamic auscultations). This shows that more the dielectric constant is high, morethe concrete resistance is reduced, and conversely the opposite.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

How to Interpret Trends in the Kalyan Rajdhani Mix Chart.pdfChart Kalyan
A Mix Chart displays historical data of numbers in a graphical or tabular form. The Kalyan Rajdhani Mix Chart specifically shows the results of a sequence of numbers over different periods.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
