The main objective of this paper was to estimate and analyse transition-probability matrices for all 16 of Poland’s NUTS-2 level regions (voivodeship level). The analysis is conducted in terms of the transitions among six expenditure classes (per capita and per equivalent unit), focusing on poverty classes. The period of analysis was two years: 2015 and 2016. The basic aim was to identify both those regions in which the probability of staying in poverty was the highest and the general level of mobility among expenditure classes. The study uses a two-year panel sub-sample of unidentified unit data from the Central Statistical Office (CSO), specifically the data concerning household budget surveys. To account for differences in household size and demographic structure, the study used expenditures per capita and expenditures per equivalent unit simultaneously. To estimate the elements of the transition matrices, a classic maximum-likelihood estimator was used. The analysis used Shorrocks’ and Bartholomew’s mobility indices to assess the general mobility level and the Gini index to assess the inequality level. The results show that the one-year probability of staying in the same poverty class varies among regions and is lower for expenditures per equivalent units. The highest probabilities were identified in Podkarpackie (expenditures per capita) and Opolskie (expenditures per equivalent unit), and the lowest probabilities in Kujawsko-Pomorskie (expenditures per capita) and Małopolskie (expenditures per equivalent unit). The highest level of general mobility was noted in Małopolskie, for both categories of expenditures.

In the Journal of Cycle Research (7:43–48, April, 1958) S.W. and N.E. Gray published “Evidence for a 400-Year Cycle in Human Ability”, which might have been more accurately called “Human Achievement” since ability refers to potential, but the 25,000 lives they reviewed were finished and realized. They took the names of historic personages listed in the 1935 edition of the Columbia Encyclopedia and classified them, without rating or ranking, each as an equivalent unit, according to their occurrence in time; or, more exactly, counting how many individuals, eminent enough to have won inclusion in this encyclopedia, were alive in each decade between 500 B.C. and A.D. 1800. The authors recognize that essentially their data do not cover “human history”, but “the western world and its Mediterranean fringes”.

The design and simulation of a multifunctional system for the machining of mechanical parts and printing in 3D (x, y, z) using CAD software Solid works, was used to determine the static behavior of the system with the analysis of tension, deformation, displacement, safety factor, buckling, fatigue and frequency. For the above, it was determined that the lateral base supports a tension of 3.5x108Pa, causing a displacement of 25 mm and an equivalent unit strain (ESTRN) of 0.0012. And the base guiding a cumulative damage of 300% of deterioration that reduces its useful life to a range between 1x106and 1x1065utility cycles and a safety factor (F S) between 104.632 to 7869.86. On the other hand, the transverse base has a maximum cumulative damage percentage of4.10535 and a life cycle range ranging from 24358.5 to 1x106with a minimum SF of 5974

Small size droplets/aerosols are believed to be potentially responsible for COVID-19 transmission in addition to large droplets and surface contamination (fomites). While large droplets and surface contamination can be relatively easier to deal with (i.e. using mask and proper hygiene measures), aerosols present a different challenge due to their ability to remain airborne for a long time. This calls for mitigation measures that can rapidly eliminate the airborne aerosols. Pre-COVID-19, an air ionizer has been touted as an effective tool to eliminate small particulates such as these. In this work, we sought to evaluate the efficacy of a novel plant-based air ionizers in eliminating aerosols. It was found that factors such as the ion concentration, humidity, and ventilation can drastically affect the aerosols removal efficacy. Furthermore, the aerosols removal rate was quantified in terms of ACH (air changes per hour)-equivalent unit, with ACH as high as 12 being achieved by using deploying a plant-based air ionizer in a small isolated office room. Lastly, this work provides an important and timely guidance on the effective deployment of plant ionizers in minimizing the risk of COVID-19 spread via airborne aerosols, especially in poorly-ventilated environment.
