description: We present a new algorithm to reconstruct the Galactic free electron density from pulsar dispersion measures. The algorithm performs a nonparametric tomography for a density field with an arbitrary amount of degrees of freedom. It is based on approximating the Galactic free electron density as the product of a profile function with a statistically isotropic and homogeneous log-normal field. Under this approximation the algorithm generates a map of the free electron density as well as an uncertainty estimate without the need of information about the power spectrum. The uncertainties of the pulsar distances are treated consistently by an iterative procedure. We test the algorithm using the NE2001 model with modified fluctuations as a Galaxy model, pulsar populations generated from the Lorimer population model, and mock observations emulating the upcoming Square Kilometer Array. We show the quality of the reconstruction for mock data sets containing between 1000 and 10000 pulsars with distance uncertainties up to 25%. Our results show, that with the SKA nonparametric tomography of the Galactic free electron density becomes feasible, but the quality of the reconstruction is very sensitive to the distance uncertainties.

description: In East London, South Africa, a self-consumption optimized photovoltaic system has been erected at an office building operated by the municipality with a yearly energy demand of 50MWh per year after extensive energy efficiency measures (previously 84MWh/a). Remaining daily peak energy demands are attributed to heating and cooling of the offices correlating with the outside temperatures. Based on 2016 electricity monitoring, 70% of self-consumption have been achieved directly covering 45% of the electricity demand. On the balance sheet 64%
of the buildings electricity demand is covered by the photovoltaic system. The peak power demand from the grid of 30kW has not been reduced by local renewable generation, but the times of demand greater 10kW have been reduced from 1485h/a to 277h/a by the photovoltaic system. The effects of a photovoltaic system on the annual load duration curve and power histogram of the building are discussed. Weekends with no office hours cover
29% of the time and are responsible for 6.2MWh/a or 63% of the feed-in energy into the grid from photovoltaics. The effects of self-consumption photovoltaic systems on the grid stability are discussed in the South African electricity grid and generation context.

Conformationally coupled diversity-oriented synthesis (CDOS) using natural product derived fragments
Creators: name: Moore, Alexander Franklin
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Given the newly recognised role of conformational entropy in conferring additional specificity in protein-ligand interactions, there has been growing interest in taking the approach of congruent conformational selection between the protein receptor and its small molecule ligands for developing more specific bioactive leads for drug discovery. Our group recently introduced the concept of conformationally coupled diversity-oriented synthesis (CDOS) for fragment-based drug design (FBDD). CDOS fragments that possess conformation-tuning handles such as C–F bonds can be utilised in diversity-oriented synthesis to access both chemical and conformational diversity in order to capture protein conformational dynamics for enhanced specificity in ligand recognition. Here synthetic approaches of key fragments for CDOS were investigated for two model systems based on the natural product (–)-balanol and the immunomodulatory (IMiD®) drug, lenalidomide. Balanol as an ATP mimic consists of three fragments, including the benzamide (adenine mimic); the azepane (ribose mimic), and the substituted benzophenone (triphosphate mimic). A new, scalable and economic route toward the azepane fragment of balanol was developed utilising a chiral aziridinyl intermediate originating from readily available D-serine. This route was utilised to efficiently access new balanoids for future studies toward probing the binding dynamics of the protein kinase C family for enhanced isozyme specificity. Likewise, a key fragment toward a conformationally-biased glutarimide fragment of lenalidomide was accessed, potentially permitting future studies toward accessing CDOS analogues of lenalidomide for enhanced binding to the protein-protein interaction (PPI) targets; CRL4CRBN and CK1α or IKAROS transcription factors that are dysregulated in multiple myelmoma.

description: In the present paper, we study a multipoint boundary value problem for a system of Fredholm integro-differenial equations by the method of parameterization. The case of a degenerate kernel is studied separately, for which we obtain well-posedness conditions and propose some algorithms to find approximate and numerical solutions to the problem. Then we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the multipoint problem for the system of Fredholm integro-differential equations and develop some algorithms for finding its approximate solutions. These algorithms are based on the solutions of an approximating problem for the system of integro-differential equations with degenerate kernel.

description: A single electron dynamic memory is designed based on the non-equilibrium dynamics of charge states in electrostatically-defined metallic quantum dots. Using the orthodox theory for computing the transfer rates and a master equation, we model the dynamical response of devices consisting of a charge sensor coupled to either a single and or a double quantum dot subjected to a pulsed gate voltage. We show that transition rates between charge states in metallic quantum dots are characterized by an asymmetry that can be controlled by the gate voltage. This effect is more pronounced when the switching between charge states corresponds to a Markovian process involving electron transport through a chain of several quantum dots. By simulating the dynamics of electron transport we demonstrate that the quantum box operates as a finite-state machine that can be addressed by choosing suitable shapes and switching rates of the gate pulses. We further show that writing times in the ns range and retention memory times six orders of magnitude longer, in the ms range, can be achieved on the double quantum dot system using experimentally feasible parameters thereby demonstrating that the device can operate as a dynamic single electron memory.

description: We provide a classification of generalized CP symmetries preserved by the neutrino mass matrix according to the number of zero entries in the associated transformation matrix. We determine the corresponding constrained form of the lepton mixing matrix, characterized by correlations between the mixing angles and the CP violating phases. We compare with the corresponding restrictions from current neutrino oscillation global fits and show that, in some cases, the Dirac CP phase characterizing oscillations is highly constrained. Implications for current and upcoming long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments T2K, NO$ν$A and DUNE, as well as neutrinoless double beta decay experiments are discussed. We also study the cosmological implications of such schemes for leptogenesis.

description: New 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesised to act as epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFRIs). The synthesised derivatives were assessed for their in vitro anti-proliferative activities against A549 and HCT-116 cancer cells. Compounds 8, 10, 12a, and 12b showed potent anti-proliferative activities. Compound 12b was the most promising member with IC50 values of 8.21 and 19.56 µM against A549 and HCT-116, respectively. Compounds 8, 10, 12a, and 12b were evaluated for their kinase inhibitory activities against wild EGFR (EGFRWT). Compound 12b was the most potent member showing an IC50 value of 0.016 µM. In addition, compound 12b showed noticeable activity against mutant EGFR (EGFRT790M) (IC50 = 0.236 µM). Flow cytometric analyses revealed that compound 12b is a good apoptotic inducer and can arrest the cell cycle at S and G2/M phases. Furthermore, it produced an 8.8-fold increase in BAX/Bcl-2 ratio. Molecular docking studies were carried out against EGFRWT and EGFRT790M.

description: Looking at the market for residential Electrochemical Energy Storage (EES) systems in combination with PV systems (PV), a significant growth has been observed recently. For these systems a new purchase motivation of the residential customers can be observed: private customers are looking for autarky in order
to avoid purchasing electricity from the grid. This is in contrast to preceding purchase motivations triggered by comparatively high feed-in tariffs leading to installation of larger grid-connected PV systems without storage on private households (having promised more financial benefit for the user in the past). This work determines levels of autarky for different sizes of both PV system (PV) and storage (EES). A simplified algorithm for system operation is applied to a standardized consumption profile that is calculated under consideration of 3 different typical European
climatic conditions. Based on these results design rules are suggested leading to comparatively small system sizes as
the economic optimum under the financial boundary conditions considered here.

description: When most patients visit physicians in a clinic or a hospital, they are asked about their medical history and related medical tests' results which might not exist or might simply have been lost over time. In emergency situations, many patients suffer or sadly die because of lack of pertinent medical information. Patient's Health information (PHI) saved by Electronic Medical Record (EMR) could be accessible only by a hospital using their EMR system. Furthermore, Personal Health Record (PHR) information cannot be solely relied on since it is controlled solely by patients. This paper introduces a novel framework for accessing, sharing, and controlling the medical records for patients and their physicians globally, while patients' PHI are securely stored and their privacy is taken into consideration. Based on the framework, a proof of concept prototype is implemented. Preliminary performance evaluation results indicate the validity and viability of the proposed framework.

description: Данная статья анализирует динамику внешней торговли Индии и стран Центральной Азии за последние пять лет, благоприятствующие ей условия и перспективы развития экономических связей между двумя субъектами мировой экономики. У экономических отношений Индии и центральноазиатских республик есть большие шансы выйти на качественно новый уровень развития, что связано, прежде всего, с инициированным Индией развитием инфраструктуры. Динамика торговли с Центральной Азией в ближайшие годы будет в большой степени зависеть от мировых цен на сырье, а также от успешности разработки нефтяных месторождений в Казахстане и степени выполнения договоренности о поставках урановой руды. Несмотря на трудности прогнозирования дальнейшего развития торговли между Индией и центральноазиатским регионом, очевидно, что Индия не упустит возможности побороться с Россией и Китаем за влияние в регионе.

description: In order to overcome the anticipated tremendous growth in the volume of mobile data traffic, the next generation of cellular networks will need to exploit the large bandwidth offered by the millimeter-wave (mmWave) band. A key distinguishing characteristic of mmWave is its use of highly directional and steerable antennas. In addition, future networks will be highly densified through the proliferation of base stations and their supporting infrastructure. With the aim of further improving the overall throughput of the network by mitigating the effect of frequency-selective fading and co-channel interference, 5G cellular networks are also expected to aggressively use frequency-hopping. This paper outlines an analytical framework that captures the main characteristics of a 5G cellular uplink. This framework is used to emphasize the benefits of network infrastructure densification, antenna directivity, mmWave propagation characteristics, and frequency hopping.

description: This thesis reports on an educational design research (EDR) study situated in a high-stakes second language (L2) test preparation program at an Australian language centre specialising in transition education. Classroom interventions, addressing specific needs/problems regarding L2 learning were embedded in two courses through a purpose-built website. The EDR site was designed to engage students, extend learning outside classroom hours, improve the organisation of course content, and support L2 teaching. The site was an avenue for authentic L2 activity, and provided opportunities for broadening critical thinking ability through participation in communicative tasks online. The first stage of the study was concerned with analysing and exploring the research context via reference to relevant literature and by interviewing members of staff. Stage 2 focussed on intervening in educational practice so as to improve it. EDR interventions were refined through two design research cycles, lasting ten weeks and five weeks respectively. The twin aims of this process were to progressively refine an instructional design, and to generate theory. In addition to answering whether these interventions were successful in addressing the educational problems identified, this study was more broadly located in a large for-profit English language college. Therefore, the neoliberal social discourse and the conflicting L2 educational ideologies of the research context were an important focus. Both students and staff were invited to participate; staff members were recruited partly to define what these broader aspects of the research context were, and partly to clarify the needs/problems that the EDR interventions were later designed to fix. The thesis concludes that the EDR interventions positively impacted L2 teaching and learning in the immediate context, being the test-preparation courses that I taught and researched. The EDR principles extracted as a result of this work address some key considerations for creating media rich L2 classrooms, and more generally, the type of conditions necessary for expertise to flourish in the context of L2 teaching with educational technology.

description: Bifacial solar modules offer new opportunities in terms of orientation. In Sweden, at northern latitudes, south orientated modules receive direct irradiance also on the backside. In summer, the sun rises in the north-east and sets in the north-west, having rather perfect conditions for vertical east and west orientated bifacial modules. This field study was conducted during June 2016 at two test sites on almost flat roof-tops in Linköping, Sweden. Test site 1 have monofacial and bifacial modules south-orientated with 40° tilt, which is optimal for yearly energy yield for monofacial. Test site 2 have monofacial optimally south-orientated modules and bifacial vertical east-west orientated modules. The specific yield for bifacial modules peaks at 8.1 kWh/kWp for one day in June 2016, which was 12% higher than for the monofacial modules. The bifacial energy gain at the test sites was in average 12 % higher on a monthly basis in June 2016 for both the bifacial systems although the albedo is only about 0.05 and the tilted bifacial modules have a self-shading effect due to low elevation above the roofs resulting in shading of the reflection area.

description: Recent studies have found that radio-AGN selected by radio-loudness show little difference in terms of their host galaxy properties when compared to non-AGN galaxies of similar stellar mass and redshift. Using new 1.4~GHz VLBI observations of the COSMOS field we find that approximately 49$\pm8$\% of high-mass (M $>$ 10$^{10.5}$ M$_{\odot}$), high luminosity (L$_{1.4}$ $>$ 10$^{24}$ W~Hz$^{-1}$) radio-AGN possess a VLBI detected counterpart. These objects show no discernible bias towards specific stellar masses, redshifts or host properties other than what is shown by the radio-AGN population in general. Radio-AGN that are detected in VLBI observations are not special, but form a representative sample of the radio-loud AGN population.

description: В статье рассматриваются особенности трансформации конкурентных отношений между компаниями. Обращается внимание на пересмотр традиционных взглядов на соотношение конкуренции и сотрудничества. Конкурентное сотрудничество связано с действием объективных и субъективных причин. Оно позволяет партнерам получить дополнительные преимущества. Модель конкурентного сотрудничества развивает теорию конкуренции, дополняя ее новыми моментами. Одной из основных форм конкурентного сотрудничества являются стратегические альянсы. Конкурентные отношения в альянсе развиваются по нескольким направлениям. Не следует переоценивать положительныестороны альянсов. Их развитие сопровождается немалыми проблемами. Другой известной формой сотрудничества компаний-конкурентов, рассматриваемой в статье, являются консорциумы. Особое значение в их деятельности занимает поиск взаимовыгодных форм сотрудничества.

description: The use of photovoltaic modules on commercial trucks is considered to be a promising way to reduce fuel consumption and thus carbon dioxide emissions in the transportation sector [1, 2]. For refrigerating trucks, the energy demand (cooling energy) and availability (solar energy) are in close time correlation making the use of solar assisted cooling obvious. Several approaches and prototypes have been published since the early 90’s [1–4], however, this technology has not experienced a commercial breakthrough yet. One reason for this stagnation is the uncertainty of payback time of such systems and reported technical drawbacks [5]. To overcome this reluctancy precise energy yield information is necessary to feed resilient return on investment calculations. In this work we present the result of a solar irradiance measurement campaign on 6 truck roofs operating in central Europe and north-eastern US. It is found that the best performing truck has the potential of a fuel saving of about 2113 L diesel/year and that the fuel
saving potential strongly depends on the usage scenario of the truck. We find the operating conditions in the collected
data to differ significantly from STC and typical PV application with 50% of the measured samples having an
average daytime irradiance level below 200W/m² and 80% an average operating temperature below 25°C. In
summary a cost competitive usage of photovoltaic systems on truck roofs seems possible but with tailored usage
scenarios.

description: EvoGrader is a free, online, on-demand formative assessment service designed for use in undergraduate biology classrooms. EvoGrader's web portal is powered by Amazon's Elastic Cloud and run with LightSIDE Lab's open-source machine-learning tools. The EvoGrader web portal allows biology instructors to upload a response file (.csv) containing unlimited numbers of evolutionary explanations written in response to 86 different ACORNS (Assessing COntextual Reasoning about Natural Selection) instrument items. The system automatically analyzes the responses and provides detailed information about the scientific and naive concepts contained within each student's response, as well as overall student (and sample) reasoning model types. Graphs and visual models provided by EvoGrader summarize class-level responses; downloadable files of raw scores (in .csv format) are also provided for more detailed analyses. Although the computational machinery that EvoGrader employs is complex, using the system is easy. Users only need to know how to use spreadsheets to organize student responses, upload files to the web, and use a web browser. A series of experiments using new samples of 2,200 written evolutionary explanations demonstrate that EvoGrader scores are comparable to those of trained human raters, although EvoGrader scoring takes 99% less time and is free. EvoGrader will be of interest to biology instructors teaching large classes who seek to emphasize scientific practices such as generating scientific explanations, and to teach crosscutting ideas such as evolution and natural selection. The software architecture of EvoGrader is described as it may serve as a template for developing machine-learning portals for other core concepts within biology and across other disciplines.
Negotiating credit transfer: an examination of institutional practices

description: Increased activity in vocational (VET) and higher education institutions to negotiate credit arrangements between their courses is designed to provide a seamless pathway for students into their next level of learning. This study explores the credit negotiation process between a Technical and Further Education (TAFE) and a University to identify the factors that influence the construction, realisation and containment of credit which influence the potential transition of students between VET courses and Bachelor degrees. The research draws on literature that reviews the distinguishing features of the two education institutions with particular attention to their distinct knowledge traditions. It reviews literature around the recognition of knowledge within academic institutions and identifies the features that have been found to influence credit negotiation between education institutions and sectors. Underpinned by a qualitative approach employing a case study methodology, two cases examining the credit negotiation process between a TAFE Institute and a University in Australia are described. The cases draw on observation of two workshops and interviews with the 10 educators who took part in the negotiation process and who were positioned across TAFE and Higher Education. Four key themes emerge which influence the construction, realisation and containment of credit. They are i) the values ascribed to academic and vocational knowledge; ii) the binding rules of credit within Higher Education which determined the amount of credit given; iii) the educators acting as agents of their institution; and iv) the educational values and orientation of the educators involved in the negotiation process. The study suggests that establishing the equivalence of the courses is impeded by the contrasting beliefs of the TAFE and University educators around the value of academic knowledge within University courses and the vocational knowledge within TAFE courses. The University, and its traditions, set the conditi,ons for, and parameters of, the credit exercise and emerged as authoritative in the negotiation process. By implication, the study highlights that the concept of seamless transition between education institutions, through credit transfer, is by no means smooth. It is subject to barriers that influence the construction of credit transfer arrangements which, in turn, affects its ultimate realisation for potential transitioning students.

description: Enhanced Raman scattering can be obtained by injecting a seeded light field which is correlated with the initially prepared collective atomic excitation. This Raman amplification process can be used to realize atom-light hybrid interferometer. We numerically calculate the phase sensitivities and the signal-to-noise ratios of this interferometer with the method of homodyne detection and intensity detection, and give their differences between this two methods. In the presence of loss of light field and atomic decoherence the measure precision will be reduced which can be explained by the break of the intermode decorrelation conditions of output modes

description: Using a behavioural paradigm, the current thesis investigated the role of imitation in video-based interventions (VBIs) for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A review of the imitation literature was conducted, focusing on imitation skill deficits in children with ASD, followed by a critical review of the VBI literature that focused on pre-intervention assessments of imitation skills and the effect of imitation deficits on VBI outcomes. The need for a standardised multi-dimensional imitation assessment battery for VBIs was established. Based on a comprehensive review of imitation batteries, and considering the nature of VBIs, an imitation assessment tool was developed and called the Video-based intervention imitation battery (VBI-IB). After ethics approval was obtained, the VBI-IB was administered to five participants with ASD (Cane, Shane, Harry, Jake and Matt). The next phase of the research consisted of three experimental studies. Experimental Study 1 was a VBI using full-sequence video point-of-view modelling to teach the construction of a Lego toy. The aim of this study was to compare total imitation scores and match-to-sample scores against video-modelling outcomes. The results indicated that Cane and Harry had good total imitation scores and good delayed-match-to-sample scores, and they performed better on the task of constructing a Lego toy than Shane and Jake, who had lower imitation scores and poorer match-to-sample skills. In Experimental Study 2, the multi-dimensional nature of the VBI-IB was considered against successful outcomes for different kinds of video-modelling tasks. The VBI taught a daily living skill and two imaginary play tasks using a multiple-probe design across three participants (Cane, Harry and Shane). Comparisons were made between the participants’ pre-assessment imitation results on the VBI-IB—with a particular focus on their mimicry and emulation subscale scores—and their outcomes on the daily living task and the imaginary play tasks. Cane demonstrated successful outcomes on all the VBI tasks. Harry, who demonstrated good emulation subscale scores on the VBI-IB, had better outcomes on the daily living task than Shane, who had a better score on the mimicry subscale and better outcomes on the imaginary play tasks. Experimental Study 3 considered procedural modifications to how the VBI was presented in imitation training. A multi-element design was used within a multiple-baseline probe design across four tasks and within one subject (Jake). It was found that modifying a full-sequence video-modelling (FSVM) procedure to a video-prompting (VP) procedure resulted in the successful completion of a task by a participant who had failed to complete it during the FSVM. In addition, the process of video modelling and imitation training improved the participant’s imitation skills by 25 per cent when pre- and post-imitation assessment results were compared.

description: Decentralised power generation may lead to an inverse power flow compared to a centralised power supply system. Thus, voltage rises have to be limited at customer level with minimum extra costs during high PV power injection. Therefore, active and reactive power control of PV inverter will become more and more important because the additional grid operator’s and end customers’ investments could be nearly neglected. The decentralised control has to be triggered directly by the line voltage at the PV inverter ensuring an efficient use based on static
characteristics, which are defined by the grid operator without the need of additional investment in IT infrastructure. The voltage dependent control of decentralised power generators is not implemented in the open source load flow calculation software Matpower. An elegant solution was found by integrating the dynamic change in active and reactive power directly into the load flow equations. This provides the basis for the techno-economic assessments which will be performed for different low-voltage distribution grid classes in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

description: Nonlinear instabilities are responsible for spontaneous pattern formation in a vast number of natural and engineered systems ranging from biology to galaxies build-up. We propose a new instability mechanism leading to pattern formation in spatially extended nonlinear systems based on a periodic antiphase modulation of spectrally-dependent losses arranged in a zig-zag way: an effective filtering is imposed at symmetrically located wavenumbers k and -k in alternating order. The properties of the dissipative parametric instability differ from the features of the both key classical concepts of modulation instabilities: the Benjamin-Feir, and the Faraday instability. We demonstrate how dissipative parametric instability can lead to the formation of stable patterns in one and two-dimensional systems. The proposed instability mechanism is generic and can naturally occur or can be implemented in various physical systems.
