    Introduction.— A significant part of the workers suffer from musculoskeletal pain (back pain,upper limb). Some of them are at risk to ose their job due to their health condition. Objective. — The aim of the article is to describe synthetically what actors and measure can be used in order to help a patient keep his/her job in spite of the pain. Results.— First place measures include a visit with the occupational physician before work resumption, part-time return to work and workplace accommodation.Second place measures require that a professional project is built by the patient supported by a knowledgeable person. These measures depend on the funding agency.They are devoted to compensate the work disability situation, and/or to provide the training required by the patient’s project. Discussion and conclusion. — Work disability prevention faces many challenges due to barriers between the stakeholders, scattering of the knowledge and the complexity of legislative issues.However, it remains possible provided the patient is committed and supported by a case manager in charge of coordinating the information and the stakeholders. Confidence and collaboration are key issues in the process.

    El desafío de este proyecto es vivenciar prácticas de actividades físicas y de ocio en el ambiente de la Universidad, involucrando a personas con discapacidad visual de la APACE / Passo Fundo, en el sentido de repensar nuestras prácticas con miras a contribuir en el proceso de inclusión social. Elementos de lectura de realidad/diagnóstico: El deporte y el ocio en las diversas modalidades posibilitan espacios para diferentes edades, intereses y condiciones. La actuación con portadores de deficiencia visual es un desafío en virtud de las pocas vivencias, informaciones, materiales, desconocimiento en adaptar actividades y la poca motivación de las personas hacia las prácticas, teniendo en cuenta que muchos todavía permanecen en la oscuridad de la sociedad, sea por falta de divulgación o la resistencia a las experimentaciones. Aparentemente existe interés y anhelo e incluso insistencia para involucrarse, pero acaban chocando con el sentimiento de inferioridad, olvidándose de sus capacidades y potencialidades. La sede de APACE es el punto de encuentro de los asociados, todos portadores de alguna deficiencia visual, que revelan anhelos, voluntades y deseos, unidos en un solo propósito, la búsqueda de hacer su vida lo más integrada posible. El espacio no es adecuado para las actividades prácticas, por lo que todas son realizadas en la Universidad. Se percibe que la discapacidad no los hace menos capaces de usufructuar y conducir sus vidas, en el área del deporte y del ocio, no retirando la capacidad de construir su autonomía y su historia. Pero todavía está muy presente signos de inseguridad para enfrentar las situaciones de lo cotidiano. El proyecto viene sirve de oportunidad para la convivencia con videntes mediante las actividades, reafirmando la posibilidad de transformación en el modo de pensar, actuar y sentir, en un proceso que se construye en las relaciones e interrelaciones.The challenge of this project is to experience practices of physical and leisure activities in the University environment, involving people with visual disabilities of the APACE / Passo Fundo, in the sense of rethinking our practices with a view to contributing to the social inclusion process. Elements of reality/diagnosis reading: Sport and leisure in the different modalities allow spaces for different ages, interests and conditions. The performance with carriers of visual impairment is a challenge because of the few experiences, information, materials, ignorance in adapting activities and the low motivation of people towards the practices, taking into account that many still remain in the darkness of society, either for lack of disclosure or resistance to experimentation. Apparently there is interest and longing and even insistence to get involved, but they end up colliding with the feeling of inferiority, forgetting their capabilities and potential. The headquarters of APACE is the meeting point of the associates, all bearers of some visual deficiency, which reveal longings, wills and desires, united in a single purpose, the search to make their life as integrated as possible. The space is not suitable for practical activities, so all are done at the University. It is perceived that disability does not make them less able to enjoy and lead their lives, in the area of sports and leisure, not removing the ability to build their autonomy and their history. But signs of insecurity are still very present to face situations of everyday life. The project is an opportunity for coexistence with seers through activities, reaffirming the possibility of transformation in the way of thinking, acting and feeling, in a process that is built on relationships and interrelationships.O desafio deste Projeto é vivenciar práticas de atividades físicas e de lazer no ambiente da Universidade envolvendo pessoas com deficiência visual da APACE / Passo Fundo no sentido de repensar nossas práticas numa perspectiva de contribuir no processo de inclusão social.

    Advances in Human-Robot Handshaking

    The use of social, anthropomorphic robots to support humans in various industries has been on the rise. During Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), physically interactive non-verbal behaviour is key for more natural interactions. Handshaking is one such natural interaction used commonly in many social contexts. It is one of the first non-verbal interactions which takes place and should, therefore, be part of the repertoire of a social robot. In this paper, we explore the existing state of Human-Robot Handshaking and discuss possible ways forward for such physically interactive behaviours.Comment: Accepted at The 12th International Conference on Social Robotics (ICSR 2020) 12 Pages, 1 Figur

    © 2019 Chinese Physical Society and the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and IOP Publishing Ltd. From April to July 2018, a data sample at the peak energy of the γ(4S) resonance was collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB electron-positron collider. This is the first data sample of the Belle II experiment. Using Bhabha and digamma events, we measure the integrated luminosity of the data sample to be (496.3 ± 0.3 ± 3.0) pb-1, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This work provides a basis for future luminosity measurements at Belle II

    Sex differences in short-term mate preferences and behavioral mimicry: A semi-naturalistic experiment

    Get PDF
    Item does not contain fulltextStudies on short-term mating (STM) yield sex differences regarding preferences for attractiveness (important towomen, very important to men) and social status (very important to women, not to men) in potential mates. Additionally, men generally report a greater desire to engage in STM than women. So far, this evidence is primarily based on studies using vignettes or surveys. The current study extended the findings on sex differences in STM by examining actual behavior and STM-desires towards real people of the opposite sex. It investigated whether (1) sex differences exist in STM-desire, (2) whether this desire was affected by a confederate's attractiveness and status, and (3) if these sex differences were also reflected in interpersonal behavior (mimicry). In a pub-like laboratory, single heterosexual participants performed a task alongside a confederate of the opposite sex, who differed in attractiveness and social status. Mimicry was observed and explicit STM-desire was assessed. Results showed that men only desired STM more than women in the case of an attractive partner. Women's STMdesire did not vary as a function of status or ttractiveness of the potential partner. Men’s, but not women's, mimicry paralleled these differential STM-desires. These results underline the conditionality of sex differences in STM-desire and provide a useful paradigm to further investigate STM.10 p

    LEGEND-1000 Preconceptual Design Report

    We propose the construction of LEGEND-1000, the ton-scale Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless ββ\beta \beta Decay. This international experiment is designed to answer one of the highest priority questions in fundamental physics. It consists of 1000 kg of Ge detectors enriched to more than 90% in the 76^{76}Ge isotope operated in a liquid argon active shield at a deep underground laboratory. By combining the lowest background levels with the best energy resolution in the field, LEGEND-1000 will perform a quasi-background-free search and can make an unambiguous discovery of neutrinoless double-beta decay with just a handful of counts at the decay QQ value. The experiment is designed to probe this decay with a 99.7%-CL discovery sensitivity in the 76^{76}Ge half-life of 1.3×10281.3\times10^{28} years, corresponding to an effective Majorana mass upper limit in the range of 9-21 meV, to cover the inverted-ordering neutrino mass scale with 10 yr of live time
