description: Controlling magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) in two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic materials is crucial for designing novel spintronic devices. Using first-principles calculations, we systematically investigate the magnetic properties of monolayer Fe$_5$GeTe$_2$ (F5GT) under two scenarios: (I) Co and Ni doping, and (II) compressive and tensile strains. Our results show that the F5GT monolayer exhibits a weak in-plane MAE, which can be significantly enhanced by Co doping. Additionally, a $1\%$ compressive strain switches the magnetic easy axis from in-plane to out-of-plane, while $4\%$ compressive strain can further enhance the out-of-plane MAE. Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) matrix analysis reveals that the enhancement of in-plane MAE in Co-doped F5GT (Co-F5GT) arises from changes in $ \left\langle {\it p}_{x} \left\vert L_z\right\vert {\it p}_{y} \right\rangle $ of Te and $ \left\langle {\it d}_{xy} \left\vert L_z\right\vert {\it d}_{x^2+y^2} \right\rangle $ of Fe(2) and Fe(3). The effect of compressive strain is primarily attributed to a substantial increase in the positive contribution from $ \left\langle {\it d}_{xy} \left\vert L_z\right\vert {\it d}_{x^2+y^2} \right\rangle $ of Fe(1).

Residential Segregation in Norfolk, Virginia: How the Federal Government Reinforced Racial Division in a Southern City, 1914-1959
Creators: name: Ringelstein, Kevin Lang
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: This thesis examines how Norfolk, Virginia maintained residential segregation between the years 1914, when the city passed its first segregation ordinance, and 1959, when it received the All-America City Award for its massive slum clearance projects. By focusing on federal government initiatives in Norfolk, it shows that Norfolk’s leaders used the federal government’s assistance to map, analyze, and remove the city’s African American slums. Ultimately, it highlights the central role the federal government played in perpetuating residential segregation in Norfolk and how it opened a space for Norfolk’s leaders to act on their prejudice.

This thesis demonstrates that in the 1910s and 1920s, Norfolk’s leaders used residential segregation ordinances, restrictive covenants, and white terror to divide the city by race. Then in the 1930s and 1940s, federal government initiatives, such as “redlining” and segregating defense housing projects, validated Norfolk’s discriminatory housing practices and emboldened Norfolk’s leaders to continue to segregate the city. Finally, it shows that in the 1950s, the federal government funded projects in Norfolk that cleared African American slums, demolished mixed-race neighborhoods, and created buffer zones that preserved residential and school segregation.

Notable sources include the Lawrence M. Cox personal papers at Old Dominion University, historical surveys and maps from Charles K. Agle’s analysis of Norfolk in 1949, a 1940 map of Norfolk’s neighborhoods by the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC), and numerous newspaper articles from the Norfolk Journal and Guide, Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch, and the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. Results of this research demonstrate that the federal government played a significant role in segregating Norfolk’s neighborhoods and helped create the racially homogenous neighborhoods that exist in Norfolk today.
"Elite Assault:" The 85th Infantry Division in Italy, 1944-1945
Creators: name: Patterson, Charles Ross
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: This thesis fills a major gap in the historiography of the Second World War by emphasizing the role of drafted divisions in the United States Army. Specifically, this thesis examines the 85th Infantry Division from its formation in May 1942 to its disbanding in August 1945. This thesis challenges the age-old assumption that conscripted soldiers were inferior to volunteer forces. By the 1940s, the United States retained a long-standing prejudice against drafted troops dating back to the poorly-executed drafts of the American Civil War, with many citizens arguing that volunteers were better soldiers. The 85th Division stands in direct contradiction to this. Gathered from across the country, its members received intensive training from devoted officers, ensuring their survival and success. Once overseas, training adapted to the tasks at hand, ensuring the men of the 85th would be prepared for the changing circumstances of combat. These men were thrown against elite troops of the German Army and the Luftwaffe’s vaunted Fallschirmjagers, earning the respect of their enemies. Drawing on personal accounts and a late war Army psychoanalytical survey, this thesis charts the mindset of the average 85th Division draftee, comparing him to his fellow soldiers in Italy and highlighting the unit’s high performance and above-average tolerance for combat. And while the public clearly favored stories of the liberation of France, direct comparison with European Theater troops further highlights the skill and combat record of the oft-maligned draftee divisions, as represented by their initial example. Simply by doing their job and doing it well, the United States Army 85th Infantry Division shattered the myth of the inferiority of drafted combat troops.

description: Stress among diverse members of school communities has received differing

      levels of attention and research activity. Whilst teaching has been
      studied

      extensively and is consistently recognised as one of the top three most
      stressful

      occupations, stress among headteachers and pupils has received less
      attention

      from researchers. This submission includes a critical review of the
      current state of

      knowledge and research in respect of stress, coping and well-being in
      schools

      (considering headteachers, teachers and pupils) and the significant
      original

      contributions to the growth and development of knowledge in this field
      made by a

      book, four chapters and four journal articles.

      The corpus of the selected works is embedded in extensive research and
      project

      work spanning more than twenty years, carried out with over 3200 adults
      and

      pupils drawn from over 200 primary, secondary and special schools in the
      UK. As

      the work was oriented toward solving practical problems in the “real
      world”

      iii

      (Feilzer, 2010, p8), a pragmatic stance was a primary consideration for
      each of

      the projects. Research designs adopted were varied, including methods
      drawn

      from both quantitative and qualitative paradigms.

      A dual process transactional model of stress and coping is presented as
      the

      underlying framework for the studies. Results indicated that, despite the

      differences in the role and status of the varied populations investigated
      and the

      contrasting environments in which they operate, some consistencies were
      found

      in terms of levels of stress resulting from the impact of; organisational
      factors;

      interpersonal relationships; communication inconsistencies and daily
      hassles on

      coping and well-being. These findings informed key elements of the
      behaviour

      management training programme on the Postgraduate Certificate in Education

      (PGCE) courses at the University of Cambridge, recognised as “excellent”
      and

      “highly distinctive” by Ofsted (e.g. 2008, 2011), and have been
      incorporated into

      the Teacher Training Agency guidelines for behaviour management training
      for

      all teachers (TTA, 2012).

description: This study investigates varietal turnover dynamics in Ugandan banana farming systems by assessing diversity, examining the adoption and discontinuation rates of recently introduced varieties, and exploring the factors influencing turnover at the farm level. This addresses a critical knowledge gap in understanding the long-term retention and discontinuation factors of the improved varieties. Varietal diversity and turnover were analysed for 399 farmers using the Shannon Diversity Index (H') and the Four-Square Method, along with descriptive statistics to capture farm-level and regional variations. The results demonstrated variations in regional and farm-level banana diversity. Farmers cultivate an average of nine varieties in their fields, and farm-level diversity patterns do not mirror the regional patterns. The Shannon Diversity Index (H=2.006) and Equitability Index (EH=0.450) indicated a moderate variety range, but uneven distribution, with the Eastern and Northern regions exhibiting the highest varietal diversity and evenness. FHIA 17 was the most prevalent improved variety but experienced some decline. Regional variations in varietal turnover exist, with the eastern region leading to the introduction of improved varieties and the central region exhibiting the highest discontinuation rates. The study emphasises local contexts in banana variety management and improvement strategies, highlighting the need for breeding programs that balance agronomic performance with consumer preferences to ensure the sustainable uptake of improved varieties. We recommend implementing a varietal replacement strategy with clear targets and incentives to encourage farmers to adopt improved varieties, improve varietal tracking using digital platforms and surveys to monitor progress and inform decision-making, and strengthen the seed value chain to ensure a sustainable supply of high-quality planting materials.

description: LSST will provide galaxy cluster catalogs up to z$\sim$1 that can be used to constrain cosmological models once their selection function is well-understood. We have applied the deep convolutional network YOLO for CLuster detection (YOLO-CL) to LSST simulations from the Dark Energy Science Collaboration Data Challenge 2 (DC2), and characterized the LSST YOLO-CL cluster selection function. We have trained and validated the network on images from a hybrid sample of (1) clusters observed in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and detected with the red-sequence Matched-filter Probabilistic Percolation, and (2) simulated DC2 dark matter haloes with masses $M_{200c} > 10^{14} M_{\odot}$. We quantify the completeness and purity of the YOLO-CL cluster catalog with respect to DC2 haloes with $M_{200c} > 10^{14} M_{\odot}$. The YOLO-CL cluster catalog is 100% and 94% complete for halo mass $M_{200c} > 10^{14.6} M_{\odot}$ at $0.2 10^{14} M_{\odot}$ and redshift $z \lesssim 1$, respectively, with only 6% false positive detections. All the false positive detections are dark matter haloes with $ 10^{13.4} M_{\odot} \lesssim M_{200c} \lesssim 10^{14} M_{\odot}$. The YOLO-CL selection function is almost flat with respect to the halo mass at $0.2 \lesssim z \lesssim 0.9$. The overall performance of YOLO-CL is comparable or better than other cluster detection methods used for current and future optical and infrared surveys. YOLO-CL shows better completeness for low mass clusters when compared to current detections in surveys using the Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect, and detects clusters at higher redshifts than X-ray-based catalogs. The strong advantage of YOLO-CL over traditional galaxy cluster detection techniques is that it works directly on images and does not require photometric and photometric redshift catalogs, nor does it need to mask stellar sources and artifacts.

title: a focus on parenting a child with a cleft lip and/or palate and limb difference
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Oliver, James
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2017

description: This thesis is primarily concerned with the experience of parenting a
      child with a visible difference. The focus of the papers were chosen due
      to their under-representation in the literature and relevance to clinical
      psychology provision. The thesis commences with a review of the
      qualitative literature that explored the experience of being a parent of a
      child with a cleft lip and/or palate. Using Noblit and Hare’s (1988)
      meta-ethnographic approach, 18 papers were reviewed to produce five
      over-arching themes. The findings illuminated the central experiences
      associated with the parenting role. Clinical implications concern the
      enhancement of emotional support for parents within healthcare settings. A
      pertinent finding emerged relating to the role of parent identity in
      navigating treatment pathways and its potential influence on treatment
      decisions.

      The research paper explored the experiences of parenting a child with limb
      difference who has been provided with an artificial limb. Seven parents
      were interviewed and data analysed using interpretative phenomenological
      analysis (IPA). Four themes were identified: (1) managing the initial
      emotional experience through the development of coping resources; (2)
      opportunities through prosthesis use and its relationship with
      ‘normality’; (3) managing and making sense of social reactions toward
      their child; (4) the intrinsic role of support: developing a collective
      connection and enabling shared knowledge. Clinical implications once more
      concern the provision of emotional support. In addition, the management of
      social responses and the co-ordination of healthcare services with support
      networks are discussed. Of relevance to prosthetic rehabilitation services
      was an interesting divergence related to the experience and meaning of
      their child’s use of a prosthesis concerning functionality.

      Finally, the critical appraisal documents the process of reflexivity
      within the research paper, including the navigation of methodological
      issues to ensure fidelity with IPA, before discussing the pertinent
      clinical implications as I move toward qualified life.

description: This work focuses on the study of the AME, an important emission mechanism between 10 and 60 GHz whose polarization properties are not yet fully understood, and is therefore a potential contaminant for future CMB polarization observations. We use new QUIJOTE-MFI maps 11, 13, 17 and 19 GHz, together with other public ancillary data including WMAP and Planck, to study the polarization properties of the AME in three Galactic regions: rho-Ophiuchi, Perseus and W43.
 We have obtained the SEDs for those three regions over the frequency range 0.4-3000 GHz, both in intensity and polarization. The intensity SEDs are well described by a combination of free-free emission, thermal dust, AME and CMB anisotropies. In polarization, we extracted the flux densities using all available data between 11 and 353 GHz. We implemented an improved intensity-to-polarization leakage correction that has allowed for the first time to derive reliable polarization constraints well below the 1% level from Planck-LFI data. A frequency stacking of maps in the range 10-60 GHz has allowed us to reduce the statistical noise and to push the upper limits on the AME polarization level.
 We have obtained upper limits on the AME polarization fraction of order <1% (95% confidence level) for the three regions. In particular we get Pi_AME < 1.1% (at 28.4 GHz), Pi_AME < 1.1% (at 22.8 GHz) and Pi_AME < 0.28% (at 33 GHz) in rho-Ophiuchi, Perseus and W43 respectively. At the QUIJOTE 17 GHz frequency band, we get Pi_AME< 5.1% for rho-Ophiuchi, Pi_AME< 3.5% for Perseus and Pi_AME< 0.85% for W43. Our final upper limits derived using the stacking procedure are Pi_AME < 0.58% for rho-Ophiuchi, Pi_AME < 1.64% for Perseus and Pi_AME < 0.31% for W43. Altogether, these are the most stringent constraints to date on the AME polarization fraction of these three star-forming regions.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) carrier systems exhibit various significant physical phenomena for electronics and spintronics, where one of the most promising traits is efficient spin-to-charge conversion stemming from their Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction. Meanwhile, a nuisance in quests of promising materials for spintronics application is that vast majority of the investigated platforms consists of rare and/or toxic elements, such as Pt and Te, which hinders progress of spin conversion physics in view of element strategy and green technology. Here, we show the emergence of giant spin-orbit torque driven by 2D hole gas at the surface of hydrogen-terminated diamond, where the constituent substances are ubiquitous elements, carbon and hydrogen. The index of its spin torque efficiency at room temperature is several times greater than that of rare metal, Pt, the benchmark system/element for spin-to-charge conversion. Our finding opens a new pathway for more sustainable spintronics and spin-orbitronics applications, with efficient spin-orbit torque employing ubiquitous non-toxic elements.

description: The present thesis has investigated the role of emotions in
      obsessive-compulsive experiences. First, a literature review explored
      whether specific compulsive presentations were underpinned by consistent
      affective profiles. A systematic search procedure identified 23 studies
      which were eligible for inclusion. Analysis of the results reported across
      the studies led to five key conclusions. First, washing profiles were
      consistently characterised by elevated levels of disgust. Second, checking
      profiles were consistently characterised by elevated levels of guilt.
      Third, hoarding profiles appeared to be characterised by fewer undesirable
      phenomena. Fourth, aside from hoarding, anxiety and depression were found
      to be consistently present across the profiles of all compulsions. Fifth,
      individuals experiencing multiple compulsion types were considered to
      experience profiles characterised by increased affective phenomena of a
      potentially distressing nature, for example, anxiety and stress. These
      findings highlighted the importance of considering affective variables
      when assessing, formulating, and supporting obsessive-compulsive
      difficulties.

      Second, a research project was designed to investigate the influence of
      self-disgust on obsessive-compulsive experiences, as this emotion had been
      rarely considered alongside such presentations. An online questionnaire
      was completed by 149 eligible participants with clinically significant
      obsessive-compulsive difficulties. The results of a multiple regression
      analysis revealed that self-disgust was a significant independent
      predictor of hoarding behaviours; no other compulsive behaviours were
      predicted by self-disgust. Results were explained in terms of existing
      theory and empirical evidence. Again, findings were considered with
      regards to their clinical implications and the importance of using
      holistic formulations to inform clinical interventions.

      Third, a critical appraisal was completed to reflect upon the thesis. This
      comprised an extended discussion of the research paper. Additionally,
      consideration was given to the research process, including the challenge

description: The aim of the Framework presented in Deliverable 1.1. is to provide overarching guidance for the stakeholder engagement, and social, policy, economic and financing work in DEMO sites, i.e. the activities coordinated by WP1. This report frames the WP1 work in relation to key theoretical concepts that are necessary to understand the WP 1 activities in PONDERFUL. It focuses on the trans- and interdisciplinary aspects of PONDERFUL to explain WP1 research questions, objectives, models and analysis in a language that is understood by all project partners (including not only social scientists, but also natural science partners) andexternal stakeholders. This is an initial step, which will then be refined and improved during the project and developed into the final PONDERFUL Framework that will be presented in Deliverable 1.6 by the end of the project.

description: The rapid growth of digital healthcare systems has led to an increasing reliance on medical imaging for diagnosis and treatment, raising significant concerns regarding data security and patient privacy. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), a class of deep learning algorithms renowned for their exceptional performance in image analysis, have emerged as powerful tools for enhancing medical image security. This abstract explores the diverse applications of CNNs in securing medical images, including encryption, authentication, watermarking, and anomaly detection. CNNs can learn complex patterns and features, enabling robust image encryption techniques that protect data against unauthorized access and tampering. Additionally, CNN-based watermarking ensures data integrity and authentication without compromising image quality, while their ability to detect subtle anomalies helps identify potential security breaches. The integration of CNNs in medical image security not only improves data protection but also ensures compliance with stringent healthcare regulations, safeguarding patient confidentiality in the digital era. This paper highlights recent advancements, challenges, and future directions in leveraging CNNs for comprehensive medical image security solutions.

Optimal Transport Theory and Applications to Unsupervised Learning and Asset Pricing
Creators: name: Souza, Marcelo Cruz de
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 490109
subject: Theoretical and applied mechanics

description: This thesis presents results in Optimal Transport theory and applications to unsuper-
vised statistical learning and robust asset pricing. In unsupervised learning applications,
we assume that we observe the distribution of some data of interest which might be too
big in size, have a high-dimensional structure or be polluted with noise. We investigate the
construction of an optimal distribution that precedes the given data distribution in convex
order, which means that the given distribution is a dispersion of it. The intention is to
use this construction to estimate a concise, lower-dimensional or unpolluted version of the
given data. We provide existence and convergence results and show that popular methods
including k-means and principal curves can be unified under this model. We further investi-
gate a relaxation of the order relation that leads to similar results in terms of existence and
convergence and broadens the range of applications to include e.g. the Principal Compo-
nent Analysis and the Factor model. We relate the two versions and show that the relaxed
problem can be described as a bilinear optimization with a tractable computational method.
As examples, we apply our method to generate fixed-weight k-means, principal curves with
bounded curvature that are actual generalizations of PCA, and a latent factor structure
in a classical Gaussian setting. In robust finance applications, we investigate the Vectorial
Martingale Optimal Transport problem, the geometry of its solutions, and its application to
model-free asset pricing. We consider a multi-asset, two-period contract pricing model and
show that the solution to this problem with a sub or supermodular payoff function reduces
to a single factor in the first period in the case of two underlying assets (d = 2), but not in
general for a greater number of assets. This result for d = 2 enables the construction of a
joint distribution of prices at the first period from market data, which adds information to
the model-free pricing method and reduces the computational dimensionality. We provide
an improved version of an existing pricing method and show numerical evidence of increased
accuracy.

title: Igualdade - Begriff und Begriffsgeschichte
Creators: name: Reinbacher, Priska
Year: 2008

description: Der Begriff "Igualdade" (Gleichheit) ist ein Verhältnisbegriff und er ist Träger rechtlicher und soziopolitischer Konzepte. Mittels der Untersuchung des standardisierten Bedeutungsinhaltes, der dem Lexem "Igualdade" innerhalb großer, portugiesisch-einsprachiger Wörterbücher zugeschrieben wird, gelingt es die Charakteristiken und Verwendungsmechanismen des Begriffes in der Diplomarbeit aufzuzeigen. Die für den portugiesischen Verfassungsstaat relevante Gleichheit wird in ihrer Kodierung mit der Analyse und Kontextualisierung der portugiesischen Verfassungstexte von 1822, 1826, 1838, 1911, 1933, 1976 diachronisch zu veranschaulichen versucht. Der Begriff der Gleichheit setzt einen Vergleich, Abstraktion und einen Moment der Bewertung voraus. Die Verbindung von Gleichheit und Gerechtigkeit ist stark. In Portugal kommt es 1820 zur liberalen Revolution. Die Gleichheit von Menschen in Rechten und Pflichten soll ab diesem Zeitpunkt immer wieder durch die verfassungsmäßige Abschaffung von Privilegien erreicht werden. Wichtige Momente der Erweiterung des verfassungsrechtlichen Gleichheitsbegriffes gehen mit der langsam Demokratisierung, die in Portugal diskontinuierlich verläuft (wichtigste Momente 1820, 1911, 1976), und wohlfahrtsstaatlichen Erweiterung des portugiesischen Staates (1976) einher. Frauen erfahren prinzipielle, staatsbürgerliche Gleichberechtigung mit der Verfassung von 1976. Gleichheit ist ein relativer Begriff. Insofern das rechtliche / politische Gleichheitsprinzip Freiheit anerkennt ist es ein dynamisches. Es gilt also stets differenziert zu betrachten, worin die Eigenschaften von Individuen, Gruppen von Menschen, Organisationen bestehen und welche dieser Eigenschaften gerechterweise gleich bewertet werden und eine Gleichbehandlung oder eine Ungleichbehandlung nach sich ziehen sollen.
