description: Solar heating is a cost-effective technology for providing renewable heat. This technology has shown rapid growth globally in recent years. A general review of the statistics of the amount of energy produced in the world in 2017 reported by IEA (2019) in which the solar thermal and electrical systems (i.e. by solar thermal collectors photovoltaic panel, respectively) produce less than 2% of the total energy in the world. Although this ratio in recent years has reached about 4%, the full potential of this technology is yet to be unleashed.

Integrating social network diffusion into BDI-based simulations: application focus on large-scale evacuations
Creators: name: Bulumulla, Chaminda
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 460207
subject: Modelling and simulation

description: Computer simulations  of human behaviour are increasingly useful for understanding social phenomena. Often, different aspects of human behaviour are inspected using  different lenses: the social aspect is represented in diffusion models that capture  propagation of influences (e.g., information, opinions) through a social network; the cognitive aspect is  encoded in cognitive systems; and the physical aspect is encoded in agent based models.
As these are intertwined in reality, modelling of all three aspects is useful in social simulations.

To this end, we propose a multi-level framework that maintains an agent's social, cognitive and physical aspects across distinct models, while collectively forming a consistent view of the conceptual agent. Our framework provides a generic approach of allowing diffusion processes to affect simulations via cognitive reasoning, and conversely allowing cognitive reasoning taking account of physical observations to impact diffusion processes. The framework is reusable, flexible and generic, and opens the way for the integration of a variety of existing social, cognitive and physical models.

We analysed through simulation experiments the extent to which the addition of information diffusion affects outcomes of an agent based simulation and observed that  simulation outcomes significantly vary when information diffusion is introduced. We also investigated how incorporation of cognitive reasoning affects outcomes of a diffusion process. Results revealed that diffusion outcomes can substantially differ when  reasoning on exogenous events is incorporated. Finally, we present an evacuation case study involving several thousand agents, where we demonstrate new modelling capability to support social and intelligent agents in evacuation simulations.  Our  framework sets the base for future research combining diffusion in social networks, cognitive reasoning and agent based simulation.

description: Algae, as a biological component of the environment, holds promise for the development of novel cuisines. This study aimed to appreciate the dietary Spirulina platensis (SP) impact on growth patterns and as an immune stimulant in broilers. SP-fed chicks at 0.5, 1, and 2 g/kg doses significantly improved hematological indices. Also, gas chromatography of fatty acid profile in broiler breast muscles exhibited greater elevation. Serum total proteins, albumin, and globulin levels significantly increased. ElISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) revealed elevated immunoglobin M, G, and leptin levels as mirrors for immunological response coordination. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) exhibited depressed tumour necrosis factor-alpha gene expression (TNF-α) in ilial tissue. Gut’s histopathology showed well-developed villi. In conclusion, Spirulina platensis in doses up to 2 g/kg enhances immunity, fatty acid profile, liver function, anti-inflammatory properties, and intestinal absorption of broilers, while doses up to 4 g/kg cause the opposite effect on previous parameters.

Ab-initio calculations of photoluminescence spectra of solid-state defect structures

Subjects: classificationCode: 400909
subject: Photonic and electro-optical devices, sensors and systems (excl. communications)

subject: Condensed matter modelling and density functional theory

description: In this thesis, I design and implement an ab-initio computational quantum chemistry recipe to predict the room-temperature photoluminescence spectra of defect centers in bulk to identify its suitability as a single photon source. My recipe first calculates the photoluminescence of a small cluster and eliminates the finite-size effects. We find that, by removing vibrations below a cutoff frequency determined by a constrained geometry optimisation, we return the main features of the solid-state photoluminescence spectrum.

I then apply the recipe to analyse the test case of a negatively charged nitrogen vacancy defect. I am able to recover the zero phonon line of 1.945 eV, closer to the experimental value than previously reported in the literature. I show that the partial Huang-Rhys factors have two distinct peaks in nanodiamond and applying the cutoff removes the lower frequency peak, which imitates the single effective frequency seen in literature for bulk. We thus illustrate the connection between defects in solid-state and clusters; show the first vibrationally resolved ab-initio photoluminescence spectrum of a negatively charged nitrogen vacancy defect in a nanodiamond; and provide an illustration of my recipe for simulating photoluminescence for solid-state defects.

I then use the recipe to predict the photoluminescence of the positively charged nitrogen vacancy state in diamond (NV+). NV+ has recently found use in accessing long-lived nuclear spin states due to its long spin coherence time. This state has been considered "dark" with no emission experimentally and the exact mechanism is not understood. My recipe predicts that there should be a singlet-singlet transition at 1.6 eV that is 16x less bright than the equivalent triplet-triplet transition in NV-. Furthermore, I calculate the required energy for radiative charge state transition to NV0 as 3.09 eV, which demonstrates that pumping at 1.6 eV will not drive the charge state transition to first order, but there may be a second order process. As the second order process scales as the square of power, I propose that experimental searches for the bright NV+ state require low power pumping at 1.6 eV. We note that there may be other non-radiative pathways or charge dependent quenching that are responsible for the inability to measure emission experimentally.

Effect of strain ageing on the mechanical properties of steel and concrete materials under extreme loading

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: 90599 Civil Engineering not elsewhere classified
subject: FOS: Civil engineering

description: The behaviour of structural materials under extreme loading conditions is a key element in retrofitting of partially-damaged structures. Mechanical properties of construction materials can substantially change by time effects, which is the main focus of this research work. The strain ageing effect on partially damaged structures has not been incorporated in civil engineering design guidelines. The strain ageing effect is comprehensively investigated in this thesis for steel and concrete materials partially-damaged by single or combined actions of quasi-static, cyclic or high strain rate loading and thermal loading. The original experimental results reported in this research work can be used to develop constitutive material models incorporating strain ageing effect for the prescriptive codes of practice and finite element method based software packages where rational structural analysis and design are required.
Performance optimization of conductometric biosensors

Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 401605
subject: Functional materials

description: Biosensors based on nanoengineered semiconductors have revolutionized the diagnosis of diseases by initiating the non-invasive detection of biomarkers present in the body. This has become possible due to the involvement of minimal sample collection with improved specificity and sensitivity. Because of recent advancements in the multidisciplinary fields, diagnostic biosensors are expanding beyond the medical labs to point-of-care and home settings. Thus, the biosensor characteristics must encounter some essential norms to be established as a point-of-care tool. In this research, two types of conductometric biomarker sensors based on oxygen-deficient zinc oxide (ZnO1-x) thin film and high-resistivity silicon (HR-Si) have been studied and investigated to extend this technology that enables the realization of its use in the development of point-of-care biosensors toward diseases diagnosis, in particular cardiovascular diseases. Two cardiac inflammatory biomarkers, interleukin 6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are used as model antigens. Three basic aspects – sensitivity, selectivity, and reusability have been chosen to evaluate and enhance the sensor performance. For ZnO1-x based conductometric biosensor, sensitivity and reusability for IL-6 detection have been assessed and validated with the previous study. A new HR-Si biomarker sensor has been introduced and the device performance has been researched. The limit of detection (LOD) of the HR-Si biosensor has been determined for both IL-6 and CRP antigens in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) and artificial saliva. HR-Si sensor selectivity has been evaluated for IL-6 and CRP in presence of other distinct biomarkers. The reusability of the HR-Si sensor has been studied by repeating the detection of IL-6 and CRP for two cycles. Surface characterization has been performed for both ZnO1-x and HR-Si sensors to ensure the device surface functionality. A comparative analysis of performance parameters has been conducted between ZnO1-x and HR-Si devices.
Human rights and subjectivity in cross-border surrogacy - understanding the role of surrogacy facilitators
Creators: name: Luo, Yingyi
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 480307
subject: International humanitarian and human rights law

description: Cross-border surrogacy is highly reliant on the practice of various professional facilitators. Yet, little is known about the roles that facilitators play, nor the ways in which they may influence the surrogacy process. This thesis seeks to illuminate the perspective of facilitators and to gain an improved insight into the role of facilitators in Australia, particularly from a human rights perspective. Situated in the field of legal-sociology, this thesis identifies key elements pertaining to the framing used by facilitators in constructing the process of cross-border surrogacy. I find that while facilitators espouse respect for the human rights of all parties to surrogacy arrangements, there is a significant tension between these expressions and the practice and business model of surrogacy facilitation, in which the needs and interests of the paying client – intended parents – are given primacy. The main finding from the interviews and non-participant observation conducted during this research is that surrogacy facilitators operate in the interests of intended parents, and that the cost of this may be the commodification of motherhood, which negatively impacts the personhood and dignity of surrogate mothers and children.

I also find that surrogacy facilitators view the surrogacy relationship as a hierarchy of competing interests, where the rights and interests of surrogate mothers are subordinated to the interests of intended parents and to their quest to obtain parenthood. Therefore, a structural inequality produced and shaped by the dynamics of the intended parent – facilitator – surrogate relationship results in the derogation of surrogate mothers and children, as the rights and interests of intended parents for family formation are dominant within surrogacy facilitation. To address the problem of unequal relations in the field of cross-border surrogacy, this thesis proposes the establishment of an accreditation and accountability system for surrogacy facilitators in Australia. This would ensure they are competent to balance their duties to the paying client with the need to respect the interests and human rights of children and surrogate mothers.

description: The article gives a practical implementation of the engineering method for calculation of different types of retaining walls. The main provision of the method is to provide the construction calculation model as a combination of construction elements with the respective conditions of their fixing. The calculation model of shielded retaining wall (covered type of sheet pile wharf) is proposed in the form of substandard rack-mount frame where resilient ground attachment is accepted instead of rack lower anchorage.  This model uses stiffness characteristics of the ground in the form of variable foundation modulus.
The article considers the definition of lateral earth pressure on the wall while staying in sliding wedge of pile bent. The article gives an engineering solution for definition of diagrams of lateral pressure on the front wall with allowance for nonlinear influence of pile bent location, piles’ pitch and cross section.

description: The objective of Deliverable 2.3 is to report on the different types of data sets involved in the management of scientific benchmarking and their main features. Understanding the nature of these data sets is crucial to properly include them into the OpenEBench’s data model.

Importantly, understanding those data sets will contribute to interact with the different scientific communities facilitating their migration into OpenEBench. Deliverable 2.3 updates the initial report presented at ( D2.1: Creation of a database warehouse infrastructure for storing and organizing data for online performance assessment experiments ) and offers detailed real world examples on how the different proposed data sets types map to a broad set of benchmarking initiatives.

As OpenEBench becomes an ELIXIR integrated platform for both scientific and technical benchmarking, it is important to identify commonalities across scientific communities which can be used at the platform level, but also specific divergences that should be considered to give a better support to the communities. The effort made to identify novel data types and map existing ones into OpenEBench is crucial to offer specific actions for each data type e.g.accessibility modes, data ownership, etc. Moreover, the nature of data sets dictate how workflows can be articulated at the platform and beyond; e.g. communities can choose to run their evaluation workflows at their own platforms, for privacy reasons, and deposit only the results into OpenEBench using the APIs developed for that end.

As data is the key component of the infrastructure, this report directly touches on most of the objectives associated to the ELIXIR-EXCELERATE WP2 (1 to 5). The remaining one, will be addressed indirectly through specific hackathons that will be organized to identify, link and/or deposit different data types for the benchmarking communities in OpenEBench.

description: Abstract

Background: Oral cancer is one of the most common, life-threatening diseases all over the world. Several challenges are faced by developing countries in identifying and removing the potential risk factors associated with it. Early detection of oral premalignant lesions and conditions will help in the early treatment of the individuals and will downgrade their further progression into invasive oral cancer. Aims: To estimate the prevalence of oral premalignant lesions and conditions and to identify the associated risk factors in Manipur, North-East India.  Methods: 1400 patients were recruited in this study and divided into two groups- With OPML and Without OPML groups. Individuals having signs and symptoms of oral precancerous lesions and conditions were included in the With OPML group while those without signs and symptoms of oral precancerous lesions/conditions were in the Without OPML group. Vital staining using toluidine blue dye was done in the With OPML group and a biopsy of these lesions and conditions was performed followed by histopathology to reach a confirmatory diagnosis. Statistical analysis: The chi-square test was applied to find significant differences among the two groups for tobacco habits, denture wear, and other risk factors. The significance level was set at P ≤ 0.05. Results: The study group consisted of 73.2% males and 26.8% females in the With OPML group, and 56.2% males and 43.8% females in the Without OPML group. The overall prevalence of OPML and conditions in our study was found to be 31% out of which 70% were associated with tobacco pouch keratosis followed by oral leukoplakia (17%), oral submucous fibrosis (6.8%) and oral lichen planus (5.8%). The risk factors associated with oral premalignant lesions and conditions were smoking and tobacco usage habits, alcohol consumption, stress, and diet. Conclusion: It is extremely crucial and the need of the hour to identify oral premalignant lesions and conditions as the early detection of these will reduce malignant transformation. This study helps us to find the prevalent Oral premalignant lesion or condition and additionally analyze the associated risk factors in the state of Manipur.

description: Abstract

Background. Job satisfaction is one of the important things in work psychologists and is used to determine the quality of the health care system. If people with high job satisfaction have positive feelings about their work while people with low job satisfaction have negative emotions. The low percentage of job satisfaction in RSKDIA Pertiwi and RSKDIA St. Fatimah is 70.3 % (Standard 76.61-88,30% According to Permanpan-RB No. 14 of 2021). There are several factors that affect job satisfaction, one of which is QWL, Self-Efficacy and organizational commitment where the three variables have an impact on job satisfaction. Purpose. This research aims to analyse the influence of QWL, Self-efficacy, and organizational commitment to job satisfaction at RSKDIA Pertiwi and RSKDIA St. Fatimah. Method. This research is a quantitative research with a cross-sectional design, which was conducted at RSKDIA Pertiwi and RSKDIA St. Fatimah, from February 2024 to March 2024. The population in this study consisted of 259 at RSKD Pertiwi and 209 at RSKDIA St. Fatimah with a sample of 300 samples selected using the accidental sampling method. Data is collected using questionnaires. Results. The results of statistical data research show that QWL is known that it has no significant effect on employee job satisfaction (p = 0.997) and organizational commitment also has no significant effect on job satisfaction (p = 0.600), while Self Efficacy (p=0.002) shows a significant influence on job satisfaction on employees. In addition, the results of the comparison of QWL, Self-efficacy, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction show that there is no significant difference in RSKDIA Pertiwi and RSKDIA St. Fatimah (p=0.126, p=0.088,p=0.976 and p=0144). Conclusion. Based on the results of the research, it can be known that the QWL variable and organizational commitment do not have an influence on job satisfaction, while for self-efficacy, there is an influence on job satisfaction. After being analysed, it is known that to improve QWL and commitment, the organization must have a high commitment to the organization. If employees choose a high organizational commitment, employees will remain in the organization and will continue to improve their performance, the organization does not need to carry out strict supervision if the organization's commitment in high employees and hospitals and improves the welfare of employees in hospitals, where employees can be appreciated and supported.

description: Several factors determine safety and reliability of steel structures. Structural connections ‎are one of the crucial components, playing an essential role in this regard. With the higher ‎capacity of present-day structural members, namely hybrid fabricated columns, it is ‎imperative to design connections capable of taking advantage of this opportunity. The ‎proposed modular pre-fabricated connection, which is investigated in this research, is ‎shown to be a practical choice for filling this gap. The moment and rotation capacity of this ‎innovative connection allows its use in various moment-resisting frames. It can minimise on-site welding, ‎and increase the construction speed, and quality.‎
