The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

56.2K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

In animals, gender is determined by the number and type of sex chromosome. For example, human females have two X chromosomes, and males have one X and one Y chromosome, whereas C.elegans with one X chromosome is a male, and the one with two X chromosomes is a hermaphrodite.
In addition to sexual development, the X chromosome has genes involved in autosomal functions such as brain development and the immune system. Therefore, males and females with  distinct numbers of X chromosomes will...

The human body employs intricate mechanisms to counteract changes in blood pH, preventing conditions like acidosis (pH < 7.35) and alkalosis (pH > 7.45). These compensatory responses aim to restore normal arterial blood pH by engaging respiratory or renal systems, depending on the source of the imbalance.
Respiratory Compensation
This mechanism addresses metabolic-induced pH imbalances by adjusting breathing rates. Respiratory compensation begins within minutes of detecting a pH...

Machines

Machines are complex structures consisting of movable, pin-connected multi-force members that work together to transmit forces. One example of a machine is the cutting plier, which is used to cut wires by applying forces to its handles. When equal and opposite forces are exerted on the handles of the cutting plier, they cause the cutting edges to come together and apply equal and opposite reaction forces on the wire, which are greater than the applied forces.

Impedance Combination

Consider a string of christmas lights, each bulb symbolizing an impedance element. In this series configuration, the flow of electric current remains uniform across every component. This behavior aligns with Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL), which asserts that the total impedance in such a setup equals the sum of individual impedances—akin to resistors in series. It follows that the voltage from the power source is distributed proportionally among these components, adhering to the voltage...

Impedances and Admittance

In the realm of AC circuits, passive circuit elements like resistors, inductors, and capacitors take on a different character when characterized by phasor voltage and current. Their behavior is expressed through impedance, a vital concept in AC circuit analysis.
Impedance is a measure of resistance to sinusoidal current flow in an AC circuit. Unlike their behavior in DC circuits, where inductors appear as short circuits and capacitors as open circuits, the behavior of these components in AC...

Area of Science:

  • Civil Engineering
  • Materials Science
  • Sensor Technology

Background:

  • Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of concrete infrastructure relies on accurate sensor data.
  • Electromechanical Impedance (EMI) is a promising SHM technique, but its sensitivity to environmental factors like humidity is a challenge.
  • Steel-reinforced concrete (RC) structures are susceptible to environmental degradation, necessitating robust monitoring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the influence of ambient humidity on EMI signatures of RC structures.
  • To quantify the effect of relative humidity (%RH) on EMI measurements for SHM.
  • To develop a method for compensating or accounting for humidity variations in EMI-based SHM.

Main Methods:

  • Three RC blocks with bonded piezoelectric sensors were subjected to varying relative humidity levels.
  • Electromechanical Impedance (EMI) signatures were recorded across a frequency range.
  • The reactive component of EMI was analyzed, and a 1D-CNN model was employed to estimate %RH.
  • Root Mean Squared Deviation (RMSD) was used to assess the impact of humidity on EMI data.

Main Results:

  • Ambient humidity strongly affects the Root Mean Squared Deviation (RMSD) of EMI signatures.
  • A 1D-CNN model accurately estimated ambient %RH (20%-80%) using the reactive EMI component, achieving a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 2.14%RH.
  • The imaginary part of the EMI signature was identified as a key indicator of humidity's effect.

Conclusions:

  • Humidity poses a significant challenge to the robustness of EMI-based SHM for RC structures.
  • The study demonstrates the feasibility of using EMI signatures, particularly the reactive component, to estimate ambient humidity.
  • This research lays the groundwork for developing more reliable SHM systems capable of operating in variable humidity environments.
