Creating system change to improve schooling outcomes in Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: McIntosh Rob
Published: July 2023

Recent history of schooling in Aotearoa New Zealand has seen ongoing efforts to achieve improvement in learning outcomes, and particularly reduction in the inequity of outcomes between different groups of learners, without significant sustained progress. Over recent decades the literature on schooling system improvement has increasingly identified key factors that have contributed to improved learning outcomes in systems where this has been achieved. An assessment of Aotearoa New Zealand’s experience against both the “what” and the “how” of effective system improvement suggests that the Aotearoa New Zealand experience aligns with some, but not all, of the identified aspects of successful change. This points to areas for greater focus and new approaches to change management in order to achieve sustained improvement in learning outcomes in the future.

FUSION INDUCED BY ENERGY-INTENSIVE MULTIFUNCTION CAVITATION IN CONJUNCTION WITH POSITRON IRRADIATION
Authors: Yoshimura Toshihiko
Published: July 2023

This review summarizes the development of multifunction cavitation technology and assesses future applications for this process. The focus is on attempts to increase the surface strength and functionality of various metals and plastics and to elucidate the conditions that can induce nuclear fusion by cavitation. An experimental setup capable of producing cavitation fusion based on positron-irradiated laser-assisted high-field energy-intensive functional cavitation is described, having the same basic structure as a prior device without positron irradiation. A combination of water jet, ultrasonic and magnetic field energy sources has been found to increase the sonoluminescence intensity and to theoretically exceed the threshold required for the D-T fusion reaction. This paper describes the incorporation of positron and laser energy sources to this system as a means of further increasing the internal temperature and pressure values of bubbles. Specifically, a Na-22 positron beam source was placed in the upper part of the reaction vessel in the direction of the magnetic field such that positrons were imparted to cavitation bubbles floating on the surface of degassed heavy acetone. These positrons were partially annihilated by interactions with electrons via the Compton effect to generate gamma-rays and energy via the reaction e+ + e- → 2γ + l.02 MeV. This energy promoted the D-T chain reaction D + T → 4He + n + 14 MeV to increase the probability of cavitation fusion.

Published: July 2023

Türkiye’de binaların zemin katları genellikle dükkân, otopark, otomobil galerisi, banka, otel lobileri, depo vb. gibi amaçlarla kullanılmaktadır. Bu durumda da zemin katların yükseklikleri, normal katlara göre daha yüksek olmakta dolayısıyla zemin katın rijitliği üst katlara göre azalmaktadır. Rijitliği zayıf olan bu katlarda depremler sırasında ağır hasarlar oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada üç farklı bina formuna sahip ankastre mesnetli ve kurşun çekirdekli kauçuk izolatörlü betonarme binaların zemin kat yüksekliğindeki artışın yapısal davranışlarına etkileri karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir. Bu makalede önce toplam kat alanları sabit tutularak üç farklı bina formuna ve farklı kat adedine sahip ankastre mesnetli betonarme bina modelleri oluşturulmuş ve söz konusu modellerin zemin kat yüksekliğinin farklı oranlardaki artışının yapısal davranışlarına etkileri araştırılmıştır. Daha sonra söz konusu bina modellerinin temeli ile kolonları arasına kurşun çekirdekli kauçuk izolatör yerleştirilerek sismik izolasyonlu bina modellerinin davranışları ankastre mesnetli bina modelleri ile karşılaştırmaktadır. Yapısal çözümlemelerden elde edilen bulgular sismik izolatörlü bina modellerinde zemin kat yüksekliğinin artması ile taban kesme kuvveti değerlerinin ve üst katlardaki göreli kat ötelenmelerinin ankastre mesnetli bina modellerine göre önemli ölçüde azaldığını ortaya koymaktadır.

The use of structural steel profiles as an external shear bracing is one of the most preferable simple, time saving and cost-efficient strengthening method for an inadequate existing reinforced concrete (RC) structure against earthquake lateral loads in comparison to the other interrupting, irritating and destructive traditional in plane strengthening methods which need evacuation of houses. With the use of this method, inhabitants of building can continue their daily life as usual during the strengthening site work.

With this experimental study it is aimed to determine the shear performance of anchor bolts used to connect the steel lama to an RC single span frame depending on embedment depth. For this purpose, a special steel construction loading system has been designed and constructed and six RC column-beam frames are prepared and five of them were strengthened using steel lama connected to the frame with different numbers of anchors in different depths. And also an equation was found related with the shear performance of steel anchor bolts depending on the anchor embedment depth.

The range of variation for different characters indicated wide differences among the genotypes both in main and ratoon crop. The phenotypic and genotypic co-efficient of variation was high for stem girth, length of fourth internode, total soluble solids and green stalk yield in main crop. High heritability and high genetic advance as per cent of mean for plant height, stem girth, length of fourth internode, green stalk yield, juice yield and jaggery yield both in main and ratoon crop indicated the presence of additive genes for these characters. Non-additive gene action was predominant for number of internodes in both main and ratoon crop. Juice yield showed strong positive correlation with jaggery yield in both main and ratoon crops. The juice yield had high positive direct effect in both main and ratoon crops. Hence, selection for high juice yield might be effective in achieving higher jaggery yield in sweet sorghum.

Correlation co-efficients (genotypic and phenotypic) and path co-efficients were worked out based on the mean values obtained from 20 F2 Family means of cross combinations derived from a 5x5 diallel set for 15 characters. Significant positive correlation with yield was exhibited by primary leaf area, days to maturity, plant height, branch number, leaf number, total leaf area, pod number, pods per cluster, cluster number and total drymatter production. The above yield components also exhibited significant positive inter- correlations among themselves. Pod number followed by days to maturity and leaf number had positive direct effect on grain yield. Branch number followed by plant height, harvest index and primary leaf area contributed only negative direct effects on grain yield. Sinnificant positive correlation of primary leaf area with total drymatter production and grain yield indicated that this character could be relied on as an indicator of superior genotypes for total dry matter production and grain yield even at the seedling stage itself.

To study the leaf litter accumulation and mineralisation pattern under different vegetational ecosystem, experiments were conducted at the Horticultural Research Station, Kodaikanal during January, 1992 to June, 1992. Plantations of eucalyptus, acecia (both evergreen). apple (deciduous) and pine (coniferous) were selected for the field experiment. The leaf litters were quantified monthly and these were further used in computation of nutrient addition to the system. An incubation study was also conducted using the leaf litter to investigate the mineralisation pattern by observing the C/N ratio. The results revealed that the leaf litter accumulation was appreciable under pine plantation followed by eucalyptus, while a low accumulation was observed in apple and acacia plantations. The accumulation of leaf litter resulted in soil fertility improvement as quantified by the enrichment of nutrients. Owing to their resistant nature, the pine needles mineralised very slowly as compared to the other leaf litters under the climatic conditions in the hills.

Phenotypic and genotypic correlations were calculated under artificial turicumn leaf blight inoculated conditions to assess the degree of relationship of yield components with grain yield in maize. Genotypic correlation coefficiants possessed higher values for all the yield parameters than phenotypic 'r' values. Yield was positively and significantly correlated with number of kernels per row, number of kernel rows/ear, ear length, ear girth and 100 kernel weight both in parents and single crosses. Turicum leaf blight disease score has negatively correlated with grain yield both in parents and single crosses. The results indicated possibility of developing a high yielding turcicum leaf blight resistant variety/hybrid cultivar if genotypes are selected based on their strongly associated yield contributing components.

VARIABILIDADE ESPAÇO-TEMPORAL DA PRECIPITAÇÃO PLUVIOMÉTRICA NA MICRORREGIÃO DO BREJO PERNAMBUCANO
Authors: Macedo Amanda Carolina Alves de , Raimundo Sabrina da Silva Corrêa
Published: July 2023

A precipitação pluviométrica é uma variável hidrológica de extrema importância para a
planejamento e tomada de decisão em diversos segmentos de importância socioeconômica,
assim como, para a conservação ambiental e gerenciamento dos recursos hídricos. O presente
estudo teve como objetivo geral o estudo da variabilidade espaço-temporal da precipitação
pluviométrica em uma das cinco microrregiões do Agreste pernambucano, a saber, o Brejo. Os
dados foram obtidos no sítio eletrônico da Agência Pernambucana de Águas e Clima e contou
com uma série mensal de pluviometria para os onze municípios que compõem a microrregião
no período entre 2014 e 2022. Devido a sua consistência, os dados não precisaram passar por
preenchimento de falhas e foram acumulados para os doze meses do ano para cada município.
As médias dos acumulados de todos os municípios foram calculadas por ano e originaram o
estudo da variabilidade temporal da região. A variabilidade espacial da precipitação foi
analisada por meio da interpolação, pelo método do inverso do quadrado da distância, no
software QGIS. Os dados apontaram grande variabilidade interanual do acumulado de
precipitação para a Microrregião do Brejo. A espacialização da precipitação anual mostrou a
presença de um gradiente expressivo e de maiores valores de precipitação na porção nordeste
da microrregião em análise. Conclui-se que o estudo foi significativo e corroborou com estudos
mais amplos da região do Agreste Pernambucano, contudo, mostrou especificidades não abordadas ainda e que, subsidiará estudos futuros sobre planejamento estratégicos para a microrregião.
