![]() Whether in kinematic analyses (e.g., ), in functional genetics (e.g., ), in cell biology (e.g., ), and in computational modeling (e.g., ), quantifying cell contours during growth is thus crucial to understand plant development as a whole. From a geometric perspective, this means that plant morphogenesis mainly depends on the cell growth rate and growth anisotropy. Because plant cells do not migrate, and usually do not go through apoptosis in young tissues, plant morphogenesis primarily relies on cell elongation and cell division. The combination of these two methods thus provides an ideal suite of tools for cell contour extraction in most biological samples, whether 3D precision or high-throughput analysis is the main priority.Ĭell shape is a primary variable in morphogenesis in all kingdoms, either as a building block for multicellular shape or because cell shape in turn biases the behavior of structural elements (e.g., cytoskeleton) or morphogens. SurfCut and MGX have complementary advantages: MGX is well suited for curvy samples and more complex analyses, up to computational cell-based modeling on real templates SurfCut is well suited for rather flat samples, is simple to use, and has the advantage to be easily automated for batch analysis of images in ImageJ. We provide a new ImageJ pipeline, SurfCut, that allows the extraction of cell contours from 3D confocal stacks. SurfCut was however not appropriate for cell or tissue samples with high curvature, as evidenced by a significant bias in shape and area quantification. ![]() While both methods differ in the approach used to extract the layer of signal, they output comparable results for tissues with shallow curvature, such as pavement cell shape in cotyledon epidermis (as quantified with PaCeQuant). As a reference point, we compared our output to that obtained with MorphoGraphX (MGX). We developed a macro in ImageJ, SurfCut, with the goal to provide a user-friendly pipeline specifically designed to extract epidermal cell contour signals, segment cells in 2D and analyze cell shape. However, proper extraction of 2D cell contours from 3D confocal stacks for such analysis can be problematic. For instance, the analysis of epithelial cells in Drosophila embryogenesis or jigsaw puzzle-shaped pavement cells in plant epidermis has led to the development of numerous quantification methods that are applied to 2D images. Many methods have been developed to quantify cell shape in 2D in tissues.

![]() Compared to other solutions in buildings, the selection of envelope structure and materials is particularly important, given the long lifetime of buildings and the associated cost of the envelope. Good building design, integrating high-performing envelopes, is the most effective way to reduce the thermal needs of buildings and ensure occupants’ thermal comfort. The United Kingdom Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) announced GBP 1.8 billion in 2023 to upgrade the energy efficiency of homes and public buildings through the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund, Home Upgrade Grant and Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme.Türkiye, Japan, China, India and Australia updated their buildings regulations, adding more stringent energy efficiency requirements.The European Union’s REPowerEU initiative, one of a wide range of measures for clean energy transition, promotes energy-efficient building retrofits to support rapid reduction of dependence on Russian fossil fuels.The European Union adopted a new revision of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) in 2023 (pending trilogue approval) that stipulates higher Minimum Energy Performance Standards for existing buildings, timelines to achieve them, and earlier deadlines for buildings to become zero-emissions: for all new public buildings from 2026, and for all new buildings from 2028.The zero-carbon-ready concept includes both operational and embodied emissions.Ĭountries and regions making notable progress to advance on building envelopes include: 1 This also requires 20% of the existing building floor area to be renovated to this level by 2030, with annual energy efficiency renovation rates jumping from less than 1% today to 2.5% by 2030 globally.ġ Zero-carbon-ready-buildings are highly energy-efficient and resilient buildings that either use renewable energy directly, or rely on a source of energy supply that can be fully decarbonised, such as electricity or district energy. To get in step with the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, all countries need to establish zero-carbon-ready building energy codes for both residential and non-residential buildings by 2030 at the latest, and all new buildings should meet this standard from 2030. Its structure is also important in determining a building’s embodied carbon impact. ![]() More than 110 countries lacked mandatory building energy codes in 2022, meaning that around 2.4 billion square metres of floorspace – the equivalent of Spain’s entire building stock – was built last year without meeting any energy-related performance requirements.īuilding envelope design is critical in defining the service demand for heating and cooling, and to guarantee comfort, indoor environmental quality and safety. ![]() When we visualize data, we are essentially connecting variables in a dataframe to parts of the plot. The aes() function tells ggplot() the “variable mappings.” This might sound complex, but it’s really straightforward once you understand. Remember: ggplot2 operates on dataframes. So for example, if your dataframe is named my_dataframe, you will set data = my_dataframe. The data parameter tells ggplot where to find those variables. When you use ggplot2, you need to use variables that are contained within a dataframe. The data parameter tells ggplot2 the name of the dataframe that you want to visualize. However, the other parameters and functions you use along with it will dictate exactly what visualization gets created. You’ll use this every time that you want to make any type of data visualization with ggplot2. The ggplot() function is simply the function that we use to initiate a ggplot2 plot. Let’s take a look at each of those separately. There are a few critical pieces to this syntax that you need to know: That tutorial explains most of the basics of the ggplot system.Īt a high level, the syntax for a ggplot2 scatterplot looks something like this: If you’re not familiar with how the ggplot2 system works, you might want to read our introduction to ggplot2 tutorial. The secret to using ggplot2 properly is understanding how the syntax works. ![]() Having said all of that, let’s take a look at the syntax for a ggplot scatterplot. If you need to make a scatterplot in R, I strongly recommend that you use ggplot2. Ggplot2 is powerful, flexible, and the syntax is extremely intuitive, once you know how the system works. In fact, once you know how to use it, ggplot2 is arguably one of the best data visualization toolkits on the market, for any programming language. The ggplot2 package is a toolkit for doing data visualization in R, and it’s probably the best toolkit for making charts and graphs in R. If you’re an R user, you’ve probably heard of ggplot2. If I need to make a scatter plot in R, I always use ggplot2. There’s a better way … ggplot2 scatterplots I haven’t used the plot() function to create a scatterplot in R in almost a decade. ![]() The syntax is clumsy, hard to remember, and often inflexible. Like many tools from base R, the plot() function is hard to use and hard to modify beyond making simple modifications. I’m going to be honest: I strongly dislike the base R scatterplot, and I strongly discourage you from using the plot() function. You can create a scatterplot in R using the plot() function. I strongly prefer the ggplot2 scatterplot, but let me quickly talk about both. If you need to create a scatter plot in R, you have at least two major options, which I’ll discuss briefly. For data visualization, reporting, and analytics, you’ll use them over and over. Scatterplots are extremely useful tools for showing the relationship between two numeric variables. Specifically, a scatterplot show the relationship between two numeric variables, where the values of one variable are plotted on the x-axis and the values of the other variable are plotted on the y-axis. ![]() Let’s quickly review what a scatterplot is. Everything will make more sense that way. If you need something specific, you can click on any of the following links …īut it’s probably better if you read the whole tutorial. It will explain the syntax for a ggplot scatterplot, and will also show you step-by-step examples. This tutorial will explain how to create a scatter plot in R with ggplot2. ![]() With In The Mix, our goal is to bring the For You feed to life for fans at the venue and on TikTok," said Paul Hourican, TikTok's Global Head of Music Partnerships and Programming.

The search traveler starts going as it searches for any updates and "never" finishes. (express is for just high priority and custom is for all). It opens up IE-8, then searches to see if I have the "latest" update SW, then a panel comes up with a choice of "express or custom" search. I use the "start" menu and then the "Microsoft Update" hot button. Everything worked fine as of the "April" updates, but can't get through as of just a few minutes ago. My OS has all of the updates, so I'm really only looking for updates for my Office Suite. I usually wait until the second "Wednesday" to manually look for updates. I keep auto update "off" so that it doesn't bog down my system. I'm thinking MS has (intentionally or otherwise) changed something that has made IE8 permanently unable to get to that site. The common suggestions for when this has occurred in the past are not working. Has anyone run into this and corrected it? This is not a "computer-specific" issue at this point something changed with the certs or authentication server-side. I then booted up a couple of the others that are still hanging around, and which within the last few weeks DID successfully access the site, and none are able to go to it anymore. However, the Windows Update website at least does not initially load with HTTPS so I'm a bit confused. IE8 says it "cannot display the webpage" which is typically a cert or other security-related issue. Thing is, the latest one I built, completed last night, cannot go to the Windows Update website. Once fully updated, open IE8, go to Windows Update site, and proceed with updates that Automatic Updates will not fetch (e.g.Turn on automatic updates and do all the updates it will fetch (e.g.Install required drivers brought over from another machine by USB stick (e.g.I've been using OEM media and the keys off the bottom of the laptops so it's all super easy, and legit on top of that.

Section 130.2 of NFPA 70E requires that energized electrical conductors and circuit parts that are operating at or over 50 volts be put into an electrically safe working condition if: (1) the employee is working within the limited approach boundary, or, (2) the employee is interacting with equipment where circuit conductors or parts are not exposed, but an increased likelihood of injury from exposure to arc flash hazard exists. As the realization of potential hazards due to arc flash events became more predominant in the mid-nineties, the Committee on Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces, NFPA 70E, introduced the concept of the Electrically Safe Working Condition. Historically, lockout and tagout requirements were concerned with protecting electrical workers by controlling shock hazards. ![]() It differs from the OSHA requirements in that it does not distinguish between general industry and construction, nor does it specifically speak to employees that are performing servicing or maintenance of machines and equipment. NFPA 70E Article 120, Establishing an Electrically Safe Work Condition, provides the lockout and tagout requirements necessary to provide an electrically safe work environment for the employee. Establishing an Electrically Safe Work Condition (ESWC) is essential for a safe working environment. |
