TL;DR: In this paper, the photocatalytic activity of a home-made titanium dioxide and its corresponding composite based on graphene oxide (GO), the GO-TiO 2 catalyst, has been investigated under UV-vis in the photodegradation of a mixture of four pesticides classified by the European Union as priority pollutants: diuron, alachlor, isoproturon and atrazine.

TL;DR: This paper suggests four alternative purposes of DEA modelling, and offers four measures of the quality of a DEA model which reflect those purposes, and explores the performance of DEA under a wide variety of assumptions.
Abstract: The user of data envelopment analysis (DEA) has little available guidance on model quality. The technique offers none of the misspecification tests or goodness of fit statistics developed for parametric statistical methods. Yet, if a DEA model is to guide managerial policy, the quality of the model is of crucial importance. This paper suggests four alternative purposes of DEA modelling, and offers four measures of the quality of a DEA model which reflect those purposes. Using Monte Carlo simulation methods, it explores the performance of DEA under a wide variety of assumptions. It notes that four issues will have an important influence on model results: the distribution of true efficiencies in the study sample; the size of the sample; the number of inputs and outputs included in the analysis; and the degree of correlation between inputs and outputs. The paper concludes that any judgement about the reliability of model results must be dependent on the objective of the analysis.

TL;DR: The sous-vide cooking of lamb loins dramatically reduced microbial population even with the less intense heat treatment studied, and most textural variables in a texture profile analysis showed a marked interaction between cooking temperature and time.

TL;DR: Results indicated sport dropout was explained by higher levels of amotivation, external regulation, and introjected regulation and by lower satisfaction of relatedness and autonomy needs.
Abstract: Motivational characteristics are influential in shaping adolescents' desire to persist in sport or to discontinue their sport participation. Self-determination theory (Deci & Ryan, 2000) was utilized as the theoretical framework for this study. This theory examines whether sustained participatory involvement, defined as continued participation in the sport through the next year, was influenced by individuals' self-determined motivation and by the fulfillment of the three basic psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Four hundred ninety two soccer players between the ages of 13 and 17 years comprised the sample. Results indicated sport dropout was explained by higher levels of amotivation, external regulation, and introjected regulation and by lower satisfaction of relatedness and autonomy needs. The findings of this study contribute to the knowledge base on sport dropout as they supported many of self-determination theory.

TL;DR: The results show that this use of SSA and cluster analysis provides an efficient automatic signal processing method, and that the proposed TCMS, based on this procedure, is fast and reliable for tool wear monitoring.
