We Are Building Histories: Game Studies and Rhetorical Metrics
Creators: name: Karabinus, Alisha Dianne
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2022
Subjects: Philosophy of language

description: What is game studies? What separates that inter/disciplinary space from a larger notion of games research—and who decides? In recent years, scientometric research within game studies has increased as scholars have attempted to more concretely define a field which has been volatile since its formal origins in the early 2000s. But a recent controversy between scientometrics and gender studies (Lykke, 2018) has revealed a potential shortfall with relying on metric studies alone. Metrics can reveal which theories, themes, and scholars have been most privileged within a discipline, but only within predetermined boundaries, a limitation in a multi-disciplinary field which begs the question of who gets to determine those boundaries. Games research draws from many fields, from media studies to literature to computer science and psychology, but unless that work makes it into game studies journals, it will never be included within a metric analysis of game studies. In many fields, these boundaries may arise organically to create disciplinary lines. In game studies, however, anecdotal evidence indicates such boundaries have historically excluded work grounded in feminist, queer, and critical race theories. This project therefore employs a mixed methods approach to metrics research that allows for a broader view of not just game studies, but games research. This mixed methods approach, which I call rhetorical metrics, utilizes contextualized metric data to create a rhetorical approach to the scientometric measurement of a field, thereby providing empirical data underscoring anecdotal knowledge of exclusions in game studies. In this project, I build on previous metric analyses of game studies by thickening data with additional perspectives. This data includes gender identity information, keyword clusters on themes beyond traditional game studies, such as information on race or queerness in games, and data on scholars who publish inside and outside of game studies journals. By revealing where different types of scholarship on games appear, and where certain knowledges are privileged (or not), this form of expanded, intersectional metric analysis allows for a more inclusive view of games studies than current studies provide, and results in a flexible research methodology that can be similarly applied to other inter- and multidisciplinary fields.

description: We consider actions of the current Lie algebras $\gl_{n}[t]$ and $\gl_{k}[t]$ on the space $\mathfrak{P}_{kn}$ of polynomials in $kn$ anticommuting variables. The actions depend on parameters $\bar{z}=(z_{1}\lc z_{k})$ and $\bar{\alpha}=(\alpha_{1}\lc\alpha_{n})$, respectively.We show that the images of the Bethe algebras $\mathcal{B}_{\bar{\alpha}}^{\langle n \rangle}\subset U(\gl_{n}[t])$ and $\mathcal{B}_{\bar{z}}^{\langle k \rangle}\subset U(\gl_{k}[t])$ under these actions coincide.To prove the statement, we use the Bethe ansatz description of eigenvectors of the Bethe algebras via spaces of quasi-exponentials. We establish an explicit correspondence between the spaces of quasi-exponentials describing eigenvectors of $\mathcal{B}_{\bar{\alpha}}^{\langle n \rangle}$ and the spaces of quasi-exponentials describing eigenvectors of $\mathcal{B}_{\bar{z}}^{\langle k \rangle}$.One particular aspect of the duality of the Bethe algebras is that the Gaudin Hamiltonians exchange with the Dynamical Hamiltonians. We study a similar relation between the trigonometric Gaudin and Dynamical Hamiltonians. In trigonometric Gaudin model, spaces of quasi-exponentials are replaced by spaces of quasi-polynomials. We establish an explicit correspondence between the spaces of quasi-polynomials describing eigenvectors of the trigonometric Gaudin Hamiltonians and the spaces of quasi-exponentials describing eigenvectors of the trigonometric Dynamical Hamiltonians.We also establish the $(\gl_{k},\gl_{n})$-duality for the rational, trigonometric and difference versions of Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov and Dynamical equations.

description: Surface level molecules act as an interface that mediates between the surface and the environment. In this way, interfacial molecules are responsible for conferring characteristics of relevance to many modern material science problems, such as electrical conductivity and wettability. For many applications, such as organic photovoltaics and nanoelectronics, macroscopic placement of chemical patterns at the sub-10 nm must be achieved to advance next generation device applications.
In the work presented here, we show that sub-10 nm orthogonal features can be prepared by translating the building principles of the lipid bilayer into striped phase lipids on 2D materials (e.g. highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), MoS2). Macroscopic patterning of these nanoscopic elements is achieved via Langmuir Schafer deposition of polymerizable diyne amphiphiles. On the Langmuir trough, amphiphiles at the air water interface are ordered into features that can be observed on the macroscale using Brewster angle microscopy. Upon contact of the 2D material with the air-water interface the macroscopic pattern on the trough is transferred to the 2D material creating a macroscopic pattern consisting of sub-10 nm orthogonal chemistries. We also show here how hierarchical ordering can be accomplished via noncovalent microcontact printing of amphiphiles onto 2D materials. Microcontact printing allows a greater measure of control over the placement and clustering of interfacial molecules.
The alkyl chain/surface enthalpy has a great deal of influence over the ordering of amphiphiles at the sub-nm scale. Here, we examine this influence by depositing diyne amphiphiles onto MoS2 which has a weaker alkyl adsorption enthalpy compared to HOPG. We found that dual-chain amphiphiles deposited on MoS2 adopt a geometry that maximized the molecule-molecule interaction compared to the geometry adopted on HOPG.
Finally, we show how the hierarchical pattern of diyne amphiphiles can be transferred off of the 2D material onto an amorphous material. This is done by reacting the amorphous material with the conjugated backbone of the diyne moiety through a hydrosilylation reaction to exfoliate the film from the 2D crystalline material. The resulting polymer ‘skin’ has many applications were controlling interfacial properties of an amorphous material is important.
COWBOY CAPITALISM AND THE IBP REVOLUTION: HOW THE MEATPACKING INDUSTRY CHANGED AMERICA, 1960-1990
Creators: name: Martindale, Michelle M
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2020
Subjects: North American history

description: This dissertation examines the rise of the country’s largest beef processor, IBP, Inc., during the late-twentieth century and its effect on laborers, farmers, business, and the communities in which it operated. Though scholars have cited IBP’s technological advances as the reason for the company’s success, I argue that IBP’s unique public relations approach that manufactured the consent of local communities to pay comparatively low wages, provide tax breaks, and in the instance of cattle producers defend IBP’s right to “free enterprise,” provided it with a competitive advantage. From 1960 through the 1980s, the meatpacking industry endured a revolution stemming from IBP’s ability to maintain enough community consent to gain large market shares and draw down substantial profits. Yet gaining and keeping consent was not easy, nor was it linear. At one point or another all of these entities opposed IBP on a myriad of fronts, but their early cooperation aided in creating a corporate juggernaut that often limited their economic or political power. For IBP’s part, the company’s founders and subsequent executive managers fostered a masculine, individualistic sense of corporate capitalism, which I refer to as cowboy capitalism. Executives painted themselves as farm boys and cowboys, as renegades who were bringing hard work and plain talk to the inefficient meatpacking industry. This conservative, bootstrap mentality played well in the Siouxland region of the Northern Great Plains, where IBP began. Just as corporate success is aided by community consent, rescinding consent creates challenges for the company that can temporarily cause a decline, or at the very least roadblock to company growth. Though founders, managers, and key innovators gain critical and laudatory attention for their role in growing American capitalism; extended community support in terms of governmental and non-governmental actors rarely have been the focus of a corporate study. It is community consent, both active and latent, governmental and non-governmental, that supported the cowboy capitalism IBP deployed to start a revolution.

Spin Optomechanics of Levitated Nanoparticles

description: With the unique advantage of great isolation from the thermal environment, levitated optomechanics has emerged as a powerful platform for various fields of physics including microscopic thermodynamics, precision measurements, and quantum mechanics. Experiments with optically levitated micro- and nanoparticles have already obtained remarkable feats of zeptonewton force sensing and ground-state cooling. The novel system has also been proposed to assess various theories including the objective collapse models and macroscopic quantum mechanics.

This thesis reports experimental results on a levitated Cavendish torsion balance, a GHz nanomechanical rotor, and a torque sensor with unprecedented sensitivity realized with optically levitated nanoparticles in a vacuum environment. The system at room temperature achieves a sensitivity of (4.2±1.2)×10−27Nm/ √ Hz surpassing the sensitivity of most advanced nanofabricated torque sensors at cryogenic environments. Calculations suggest potential detection of Casimir torque and vacuum friction under realistic conditions. Moreover, the nanoparticles are driven into ultrafast rotations exceeding 5 GHz, which achieves the fastest humanmade nanomechanical rotor. Such fast rotations allow studies on the ultimate tensile strength of the nanoparticles as well.

Subsequently, the electron spin control of nitrogen vacancies (NV) in optically trapped diamond naoparticles is demonstrated in low vacuum. The configuration is analogous to trapped atoms and ions which serve as a quantum system with internal states. The effect of the air pressure, surrounding gas, and laser power on the electron spin resonance (ESR) are studied, and the temperature of the diamond is also measured with the ESR. The levitated nanodiamonds will provide the means to implement a hybrid spin-optomechanical system.

description: In the first chapter, we illustrate a big picture of the printing systems and the concentration of this dissertation.
In the second chapter, we present a tone-dependent fast error diffusion algorithm for color images, in which the quantizer is based on a simulated linearized printer space and the filter weight function depends on the ratio of the luminance of the current pixel to the maximum luminance value. The pixels are processed according to a serpentine scan instead of the classic raster scan. We compare the results of our algorithm to those achieved using the fixed Floyd-Steinberg weights and processing the image according to a raster scan ordering. In the third chapter, we first design a defect generator to generate the synthetic abnormal printer sounds, and then develop or explore three features for sound-based anomaly detection. In the fourth chapter, we explore six classifiers as our anomaly detection models, and explore or develop six augmentation methods to see whether or not an augmented dataset can improve the model performance. In the fifth chapter, we illustrate the data arrangement and the evaluation methods. Finally, we show the evaluation results based on different inputs, different features, and different classifiers.
In the last chapter, we summarize the contributions of this dissertation.

description: Il più conosciuto navigatore della Terra Piatta è Cosma l’Indicopleuste. Cosma era in mercante egiziano che verso l'anno 522 compì un lungo viaggio che lo portò dal Mar Rosso fino all’India, donde il soprannome di Indicopleuste, "navigatore indiano". Ritornato in Egitto e ritiratosi dal commercio, iniziò a scrivere opere varie, tra cui la Topografia Cristiana, dove Cosma illustrava il mondo fatto come un tabernacolo mosaico. Per Cosma la terra è piatta. Qualche terrapiattista c’era, ma mondo antico e medioevo sapevano bene che la terra era una sfera. Nella discussione proposta, si ricorderanno Aristotele ed il concetto di gravità e Plinio il Vecchio e come egli abbia introdotto, parlando degli Antipodi, il concetto di simmetria sferica. Saranno mostrate delle immagini che evidenziano come i Romani, al tempo di Augusto, concepissero il mondo come un globo. Non solo, le monete di Augusto mostrano un globo ‘fasciato’, con gli antesignani di meridiani e paralleli. Pensare che chi oggi crede nella terra piatta sia una persona che è regredita al pensiero antico pre-moderno è una mistificazione. Anche pensare che Cristoforo Colombo sia partito nel suo viaggio atlantico verso ovest per dimostrare che la Terra è rotonda è una bufala. Nel 2021 troviamo la terra piatta, definita come “un sorprendente rigurgito pre-moderno”, nell’annuale Rapporto Censis sulla situazione sociale dell’Italia. Il Censis 2021 intitola una parte del rapporto “Società irrazionale”. Il globo di Augusto non è però un rigurgito pre-moderno. Dal 2021 la società italiana è migliorata? Pare di no, dato che il Censis 2024 parla di Fabbrica degli Ignoranti. Quale è questa fabbrica? La scuola. E che cosa crea questa fabbrica? Il Paese degli Ignoranti. Non c’è solo la scuola a fabbricare ignoranti. Nel senso di persone che ‘ignorano’, ci sono quelle che per motivi contingenti non hanno potuto ricevere educazione adeguata, e per necessità hanno dovuto abbandonare gli studi. Ci sono le persone che, pur avendo i mezzi, non si impegnano per pigrizia o ignavia. Poi ci sono le persone che, pur avendo adeguata istruzione, non vogliono riconosce i loro errori, e danno agli altri del “terrapiattista”. Ma l’errore rimane. Si concluderà mostrando come una osservazione sul lavoro del ricercatore universitario, abbia portato un fisico ad occuparsi dell’argomento Terra Piatta.

description: If I take my umbrella, having seen that it’s raining outside, we might say that my reason for taking my umbrella was that it was raining. However, if I’d believed that it was raining when it wasn’t, we might say that my reason for taking my umbrella was that I believed that it was raining. In the first case, my reason for acting seems to be a feature of the world, whilst in the second it seems to be a feature of my psychology.
 According to most theories of reasons, we are mistaken about what my reason for acting was in one of these cases. However, I argue, these theories all entail several awkward claims.
 I argue that there is a theory of reasons that can reconcile these two accounts of what my reason for acting was without entailing such awkward claims. I argue that what the fact that it is raining and the fact that I believe that it is raining have in common is that, in their respective cases, they each explain why it was rational for me to take my umbrella and why I took it.
 More generally, I argue that there is at least a sense in which all practical reasons explain why it is, in some respect, rational for the agent to do the actions for which they are reasons. The major challenge for this account is the claim that only features of an agent’s psychology can explain why they act or why it is rational for them to act. I provide a formal construal of this challenge and argue that the fact that it is raining can explain why I take my umbrella and why it was rational for me to do so, by explaining the fact that I believed that it was raining.

description: Sustainable aviation fuel offers potential to decarbonize commercial aviation immediately and into the future. To meet the environmental targets for alternative fuels, new production pathways are necessary. New fuel pathways often have compositions significantly different from conventional petroleum fuels leading to a justified conservatism in the approval process. To accommodate these concerns, improved scientific understanding and analytical methods are needed. Specifically, this work explores the importance of isomeric structure on fuel properties and the value identification of the isomers can have on fuel property predictions. In this work, we explore property prediction methods from hydrocarbon group type analysis where we identify isomeric property variance as a major source of prediction uncertainty. Some isomeric property variance is explained by structural characteristics like cycloalkane ring size. To eliminate the isomeric uncertainty in predictions, a method is developed to confidently identify specific isomers in a jet fuel using two-dimensional gas chromatography with a vacuum ultraviolet detector. This identifies correct matches by assuming that the difference between reference vacuum ultraviolet response and measured response is exactly equivalent to the noise of the device. Leveraging the strong repeatability of the detector, limits of identification are made on hydrocarbons with very similar spectra. The novel techniques are then applied to a surrogate fuel, a real fuel, and an alternative fuel candidate and the resulting property prediction uncertainty is shared. Finally, for freezing point, a property highly affected by isomeric structure, a novel approach for predicting the property from composition is presented.
Metal-Oxide Nanocomposite for Tunable Physical Properties

description: Understanding how light interacts with the matter is essential for developing future opto-electronic devices. Furthermore, tuning such light-matter interaction requires designing new material platforms that is essential for developing devices which are functional in different light wavelength regimes. Among these designs, particle-in-matrix, multilayer or nanowire morphology, consisting of metal and dielectric materials, have been demonstrated for achieving improved physical and optical properties, such as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism and negative refraction. For example, Au-TiO2 two phase nanocomposite has been explored in this dissertation as a way of achieving enhanced photocatalysis. However, due to the availability of a limited range of structures in terms of crystallinity and morphology in the two-phase nanocomposites, a greater design flexibility and structural complexity along with versatile growth techniques are needed for developing next generation integrated photonic and electronic devices. This can be achieved by incorporating a third phase through the three phase nanocomposite designs by judicious selection of materials and functionalities. In this dissertation, a new nanocomposite design having three different phases has been introduced: Au, BaTiO3 and ZnO, which grow in a highly ordered ‘nanoman’-like structure. More interestingly, the three phases in the novel ‘nanoman’-like structure combine to give an emergent new property which are not found individually in the three phases. The ordered ‘nanoman’-like structures enable a high degree of tunability in their optical and electrical properties, including the hyperbolic dispersion in the visible and near infrared regime, in addition to the prominent ferroelectric/piezoelectric properties. Moreover, the growth kinetics and the thermal stability (using in-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy) of the ‘nanoman’ structures has also been studied. This study introduces a new growth paradigm of fabricating three-phase nanocomposite that will surely generate wide interests with potential applications to different systems. The ordered three-phase ‘nanoman’ structures present enormous opportunities for novel complex nanocomposite designs towards future optical, electrical and magnetic property tuning.

description: Polymers can be decorated with functional groups (FGs) to confer specific and tuneable properties to the molecules. By varying the chemical architecture, concentration, and distribution of the FGs on the polymer, it is possible to control the chemical and physical properties of the polymers. Such functionalised polymers are applied broadly, in chemical synthesis, biological science, chemical engineering, medicine, agriculture, food science, optical science, and the energy sector. This thesis is devoted to the study of functionalised polyethylene/polypropylene (PE/PP) copolymers used to control friction and wear in combustion engines. The aim is to investigate how the distribution of FGs on linear PE/PP copolymers controls the structural, dynamical, and tribological properties of the molecules when dissolved in n-heptane (representing an oil), either in bulk, or confined and sheared between solid iron oxide surfaces (representing the moving parts of engines). Large-scale atomistic molecular dynamics simulations are used to gain detailed and unique insights on the links between molecular-scale and tribological properties. Simulations of isolated copolymers in solution are carried out to explore how the radius of gyration, end-toend distance, and scattering form factor are dictated by the distribution of a proprietary FG. It is shown that the size of a copolymer can vary by as much as 38% by varying the FG distribution, due to the association of the FGs in solution. It is found that solvophobic interactions are responsible for this association, and the results are supported by simulations of different FGs without the opportunity to stack. Predicted form factors will enable comparisons to be made with future X-ray and neutron scattering experiments. The shear viscosity is found to correlate well with the FG distribution and copolymer size at low concentration, while at high concentration the viscosity does not seem to depend with FG distribution, in agreement with the lack of variation in static structure. Next, the properties of copolymers solutions confined between iron oxide surfaces are explored, in static conditions and under shear. It is found that the FG distribution strongly affects the nature of the adsorption of the copolymers, and the response of the adsorbed film to shear, as measured by mass-density and velocity profiles across the liquid layer.

description: The two main results in this thesis have a common point: Hermitian--Yang--Mills (HYM) metrics. In the first result, we address a Dirichlet problem for the HYM equations in bundles of infinite rank over Riemann surfaces. The solvability has been known since the work of Donaldson \cite{Donaldson92} and Coifman--Semmes \cite{CoifmanSemmes93}, but only for bundles of finite rank. So the novelty of our first result is to show how to deal with infinite rank bundles. The key is an a priori estimate obtained from special feature of the HYM equation. In the second result, we take on the topic of the so-called ``geometric quantization." This is a vast subject. In one of its instances the aim is to approximate the space of K\"ahler potentials by a sequence of finite dimensional spaces. The approximation of a point or a geodesic in the space of K\"ahler potentials is well-known, and it has many applications in K\"ahler geometry. Our second result concerns the approximation of a Wess--Zumino--Witten type equation in the space of K\"ahler potentials via HYM equations, and it is an extension of the point/geodesic approximation.

description: Diplopseustis Meyrick, 1884: 284 - 285.
Type species: Cymoriza minima Butler, 1881, by subsequent designation by Aurivillius, 1885, Zool. Jahresbericht, II. Abt. (1884), Arthropoda: 526
Diagnosis. The genus can be separated from Sufetula by characters from the forewings and male and female genitalia. The forewing of Diplopseustis moths displays small dots interspaced between the three larger spots along the costa, extended between the antemedial and postmedial lines, and the antemedian and postmedian lines are very thin. The hindwing lacks the antemedian and median markings, and the transverse line runs in the postmedian or subterminal area rather than in the median area as in Sufetula. Vein Rs 4 of the forewing diverges from the stalk of Rs 2 and Rs 3 at least 1/4 along its distance from the cell. Veins M 2 and M 3 are stalked in both the forewing and the hindwing. Posterior of the sacci tympani are puteoli that are separated from the posterior part of sternum II by a low, narrow ridge. In the male genitalia, the uncus is very thin and elongated. The valva has various shapes but is generally longer than wide. In the female genitalia, the corpus bursae is ovoid to oblong, without a signum.
Distribution and diversity. Diplopseustis is currently known from the Oriental, Australasian (Australia, New Guinea) and Afrotropical regions. The genus currently includes seven species: Diplopseustis brunnealis (Hampson, 1917) comb. nov., D. constellata Warren, 1896, D. nigerialis Hampson, 1906, D. pallidalis Warren, 1896, D. perieresalis (Walker, 1859), D. prophetica Meyrick, 1887, and D. selenalis Hampson, 1906. Diplopseustis brunnealis is the only species currently known from the Philippines.
Phylogenetic relationships. Diplopseustis was recovered as monophyletic together with Sufetula in Léger et al. (2021). The two Sufetula species S. diminutalis (Walker, 1866) from Central America and S. sythof fi (Snellen, 1899) from South-East Asia included in the phylogenetic analysis of Léger et al. (2021) cluster together.
