La critique de l'historicite de Michel Freitag: Pour une réaffirmation de la valeur du monde
Creators: name: Filion, Guillaume
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Political Science, General.

description: Cet essai a pour objet la problématique de l'historicité dans l'oeuvre du sociologue Michel Freitag. Celle-ci est abordée par l'auteur en termes de " dualité existentielle ", pour signifier l'opposition du monde objectif déjà constitué et de la subjectivité à la base de l'expérience humaine de l'inscription dans le temps. Selon Freitag, l'objectivité des médiations est affligée d'une " précarité existentielle ", en ce sens qu'elle requiert un engagement des sujets vis-à-vis ses déterminations pour se maintenir. La postmodernité a ceci d'original que, pour la première fois dans l'histoire, les structures de la société se régulent en dehors de la maîtrise par les sujets de leurs activités, tandis que ceux-ci se replient sur leurs désirs. L'objectif de la thèse est de saisir la signification de la rupture entre l'objectivité donnée et la subjectivité constatée par Freitag dans la postmodernité. C'est le sens du mode de reproduction décisionnel-opérationnel. À cet égard, l'auteur dénote un déplacement significatif en ce qui concerne la disposition analytique de Freitag en face de la postmodernité. Appréhende en termes du passage d'une philosophie de l'Esprit à une philosophie de la Vie, l'enrichissement de l'interprétation de la postmodernité par Freitag met en évidence une critique de l'historicité. L'historicité postmoderne serait caractérisée par une illimitation de l'agir, une démesure qui constitue une menace de dissolution de la réalité naturelle de même que de la réalité humaine telle qu'elle s'est historiquement instituée.

description: There are many proposed mechanisms driving the morphological transformation of disc galaxies to elliptical galaxies. In this paper, we determine if the observed transformation in low-mass groups can be explained by the merger histories of galaxies. We measured the group mass-morphology relation for groups from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly group catalogue with masses from 1011 to 1015 M⊙. Contrary to previous studies, the fraction of elliptical galaxies in our more complete group sample increases significantly with group mass across the full range of group mass. The elliptical fraction increases at a rate of 0.163 ± 0.012 per dex of group mass for groups more massive than 1012.5 M⊙. If we allow for uncertainties in the observed group masses, our results are consistent with a continuous increase in elliptical fraction from group masses as low as 1011 M⊙. We tested if this observed relation is consistent with the merger activity using a gadget-2 dark matter simulation of the galaxy groups. We specified that a simulated galaxy would be transformed to an elliptical morphology either if it experienced a major merger or if its cumulative mass gained from minor mergers exceeded 30 per cent of its final mass. We then calculated a group mass-morphology relation for the simulations. The position and slope of the simulated relation were consistent with the observational relation, with a gradient of 0.184 ± 0.010 per dex of group mass. These results demonstrate a strong correlation between the frequency of merger events and disc-to-elliptical galaxy transformation in galaxy group environments.

description: Aktuelle Studien zeigen, dass nicht nur auf dem Land lebende Tiere, sondern auch Fische Rückstände von antikoagulanten Rodentiziden in ihrer Leber aufweisen. Antikoagulante Rodentizide der zweiten Generation wurden bei der Umweltrisikobewertung als persistent, bioakkumulierend und toxisch eingestuft. Auf Grundlage der verfügbaren, kurzzeitigen ökotoxikologischen Studien mit Wasserorganismen und des prognostizierten geringen Eintrags wurden Risiken für die aquatische Umwelt bisher jedoch als akzeptabel angesehen. Auf welchen Wegen diese Rodentizide in Gewässer gelangen und ob sie sich dort anreichern, wird derzeit in einem Forschungsprojekt untersucht. Eine potenzielle Eintragsquelle stellt die Bekämpfung von Wanderratten in der Kanalisation dar. Quelle: Verlangsinformation
Equilibrium entropy and nonequilibrium distribution functions of atomistic fluids
Creators: name: Maffioli, Luca
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: Molecular Dynamics is a set of computer techniques and models used to investigate the thermomechanical properties of a system of particles, and it currently holds a primal role in the investigation of nonequilibrium thermodynamic systems. However, the models commonly employed present serious limitations in the computation of the nonequilibrium entropy, and challenge the theoretical foundations of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. In this works, we aim to shed light on the problems involved in the computation of the entropy, and we investigate under which conditions the current definition of entropy can be extended to nonequilibrium systems.

description: Background: The distribution of forest vegetation within urban environments is critically important as it influences urban environmental conditions and the energy exchange through the absorption of solar radiation and modulation of evapotranspiration. It also plays an important role filtering urban water systems and reducing storm water runoff. Methods: We investigate the capacity of ALS data to individually detect, map and characterize large (taller than 15 m) trees within the City of Vancouver. Large trees are critical for the function and character of Vancouver’s urban forest. We used an object-based approach for individual tree detection and segmentation to determine tree locations (position of the stem), to delineate the shape of the crowns and to categorize the latter either as coniferous or deciduous. Results: Results indicate a detection rate of 76.6% for trees > 15 m with a positioning error of 2.11 m (stem location). Extracted tree heights possessed a RMSE of 2.60 m and a bias of − 1.87 m, whereas crown diameter was derived with a RMSE of 3.85 m and a bias of − 2.06 m. Missed trees are principally a result of undetected treetops occurring in dense, overlapping canopies with more accurate detection and delineation of trees in open areas. Conclusion: By identifying key structural trees across Vancouver’s urban forests, we can better understand their role in providing ecosystem goods and services for city residents.

In-Plane Strength and Stiffness of Cross-Laminated Timber Shear Walls

Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2019

description: The research presented herein investigated the in-plane performance of cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls for platform-type buildings under lateral loading. Finite element models of CLT connections (i.e., brackets, hold-downs and self-tapping screws) were developed in OpenSees and calibrated against experimental tests to represent the connections’ hysteresis behaviour under cyclic tension and shear loading. The results were incorporated into models of CLT single and coupled shear walls. The results in terms of peak displacement, peak load and energy dissipation were in good agreement when compared to full-scale shear wall tests. Subsequently, a parametric study of 56 single and 40 coupled CLT shear walls was conducted with varying numbers and types of connectors (wall-to-floor and wall-to-wall) for evaluating their seismic performance. It was found that the strength, stiffness and energy dissipation of the single and coupled CLT shear walls increased with an increase in the number of connectors. Single shear walls with hold-downs and brackets performed better under seismic loading compared to walls with brackets only. Similarly, coupled shear walls with four hold-downs performed better compared to walls with two hold-downs. Finally, ductility of coupled shear walls was found to be 31% higher compared to that of single shear walls. The findings from this research are useful for engineers to efficiently design CLT shear walls in platform-type construction.

description: Pool water is continuously circulated and reused after an extensive treatment including disinfection by chlorination, ozonation or UV treatment. In Germany, these methods are regulated by DIN standard 19643. Recently, the DIN standard has been extended by a new disinfection method using hypobromous acid as disinfectant formed by introducing ozone into water with naturally or artificially high bromide content during water treatment. In this study, we tested the disinfection efficacy of the ozone-bromine treatment in comparison to hypochlorous acid in a flow-through test rig using the bacterial indicator strains Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus and the viral indicators phage MS2 and phage PRD1. Furthermore, the formation of disinfection by-products and their potential toxic effects were investigated in eight pool water samples using different disinfection methods including the ozone-bromine treatment. Our results show that the efficacy of hypobromous acid, depending on its concentration and the tested organism, is comparable to that of hypochlorous acid. Hypobromous acid was effective against five of six tested indicator organisms. However, using Pseudomonas aeruginosa and drinking water as test water, both tested disinfectants (0.6 mg L-1 as Cl2 hypobromous acid as well as 0.3 mg L-1 as Cl2 hypochlorous acid) did not achieve a reduction of four log10 levels within 30 s, as required by DIN 19643. The formation of brominated disinfection by-products depends primarily on the bromide concentration of the filling water, with the treatment method having a smaller effect. The eight pool water samples did not show critical values in vitro for acute cytotoxicity or genotoxicity in the applied assays. In real pool water samples, the acute toxicological potential was not higher than for conventional disinfection methods. However, for a final assessment of toxicity, all single substance toxicities of known DBPs present in pool water treated by the ozone-bromine treatment have to be analyzed additionally. © 2021 The Authors

description: This thesis aim is to help identify individuals that will develop diabetes (high blood glucose in the body). In order to be able to predict accurately, risk factors need to be identified and a prediction model is needed. As individuals that develop diabetes is of the minority group, there is data imbalance. Hence, to address this issue, Cluster-Based Undersampling was used. The LIFECARE Cohort is a Cohort in Sarawak which recruited healthy individuals to study the development of diesease. This thesis shares the significant factors identified using LIFECARE cohort and the step by step methodology for the proposed method ODS-CBUS.

description: Abstract We propose Blue Noise Plots, two‐dimensional dot plots that depict data points of univariate data sets. While often one‐dimensional strip plots are used to depict such data, one of their main problems is visual clutter which results from overlap. To reduce this overlap, jitter plots were introduced, whereby an additional, non‐encoding plot dimension is introduced, along which the data point representing dots are randomly perturbed. Unfortunately, this randomness can suggest non‐existent clusters, and often leads to visually unappealing plots, in which overlap might still occur. To overcome these shortcomings, we introduce Blue Noise Plots where random jitter along the non‐encoding plot dimension is replaced by optimizing all dots to keep a minimum distance in 2D i. e., Blue Noise. We evaluate the effectiveness as well as the aesthetics of Blue Noise Plots through both, a quantitative and a qualitative user study. The Python implementation of Blue Noise Plots is available here.

description: Traumatic injury is a leading contributor to the global disease burden in children and adolescents, but methods used to estimate burden do not account for differences in patterns of injury and recovery between children and adults. A lack of empirical data on postinjury disability in children has limited capacity to derive valid disability weights and describe the long-term individual and societal impacts of injury in the early part of life. The aim of this study is to establish valid estimates of the burden of non-fatal injury in children and adolescents. Methods and analysis Five longitudinal studies of paediatric injury survivors <18 years at the time of injury (Australia, Canada, UK and USA) and two whole-of-population linked administrative data paediatric studies (Australia and Wales) will be analysed over a 3-year period commencing 2018.

Hantaviruses infect endothelial cell layers in vitro without causing any cytopathogenic effect and without increasing permeability. This implies that the mechanisms underlying vascular hyperpermeability in hantavirus- associated disease are more complex and that immune mechanisms play an important role. In this review we highlight the latest developments in hantavirus-induced immunopathogenesis. A possible contribution of neutrophils has been neglected so far. For this reason, we place special emphasis on the pathogenic role of neutrophils in disrupting the endothelial barrier.

description: Paired associative stimulation (PAS) is a widely used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigm to non-invasively induce synaptic plasticity in the human brain in vivo. Altered PAS-induced plasticity has been demonstrated for several diseases. However, researchers are faced with a high inter- and intra- subject variability of the PAS response. Here, we pooled original data from nine PAS studies from three centers and analyzed the combined dataset of 190 healthy subjects with regard to age dependency, the role of stimulation parameters and the effect of different statistical methods. We observed no main effect of the PAS intervention over all studies (F(2;362) = 0.44; p = 0.644). The rate of subjects showing the expected increase of motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitudes was 53%. The PAS effect differed significantly between studies as shown by a significant interaction effect (F(16;362) = 1.77; p = 0.034) but post-hoc testing did not reveal significant effects after correction for multiple tests. There was a trend toward increased variability of the PAS effect in older subjects. Acquisition parameters differed across studies but without systematically influencing changes in MEP-size. The use of post/baseline quotients systematically indicated stronger PAS effects than post/baseline difference or the logarithm of the post/baseline quotient. The non-significant PAS effects across studies and a wide range of responder rates between studies indicate a high variability of this method. We were thus not able to replicate findings from a previous meta-analysis showing robust effects of PAS. No pattern emerged regarding acquisition parameters that at this point could guide future studies to reduce variability and help increase response rate. For future studies, we propose to report the responder rate and recommend the use of the logarithmized post/baseline quotient for further analyses to better address the possibility that results are driven by few extreme cases.

description: Die dritte Studie des Umweltbundesamtes zur Marktbeobachtung nachhaltigen Konsums in Deutschland betrachtet die Marktentwicklung ausgewählter grüner Produkte in den drei zentralen Konsumbereichen Wohnen, Mobilität und Ernährung. Die Marktzahlen von 2008 bis 2015 werden dabei der Entwicklung der ⁠CO2⁠-Emissionen des Konsums gegenübergestellt. Hieraus werden umweltpolitische Schlussfolgerungen abgeleitet. Daneben werden erstmalig die Marktentwicklungen der Umweltlabel Blauer Engel (Papier), EU Ecolabel (Hygieneartikel), FSC und PEFC (Holz) sowie GOTS (Textilien) mittels repräsentativer Marktdaten dargestellt und diskutiert. Schließlich wird der ⁠Indikator⁠ „Marktanteil von Produkten mit staatlichen Umweltzeichen“ vorgestellt. Der Indikator ist nicht nur seit Anfang 2017 in der Deutschen Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie enthalten, sondern soll auch ein Kernelement des künftigen Monitorings des nachhaltigen Konsums im Rahmen des „Nationalen Programms für nachhaltigen Konsum“ sein. Er wird vom Umweltbundesamt erhoben.
Direct Dark Matter Environment Monitoring
Creators: name: Krishnan, Shanti
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: The majority of the universe is made up of non-luminous matter known as dark matter, whose presence is unquestionable, but properties and nature are as yet to be determined. In the search for dark matter it is vital to monitor and record the environment in which these experiments are conducted, as the experiments are very sensitive to background disturbances. In this study, a novel and robust background monitoring system and cosmic muon detection system have been developed for deployment at the dark matter detector in Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory located 1km underground at the Stawell Goldmine in Victoria. The monitoring systems developed in this study will help advance the search for dark matter both in Australia and globally.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The household rainwater collection by using a rainwater tank is well known to the society. However, an outcome or a financial benefit of using rainwater depends on many factors which are mostly measured by thumb-rule or previous experience. This research will bring the up-to date knowledge in calculating rain water harvesting outcome in a simplistic form. The end users will be assured with more realistic and reliable outcome considering the climatic, spatial, and other variables on rainwater savings. The policy makers can decide present and future rebates to install a rain water tank to benefit the society.
title: Disabled Women in El Salvador Reframing Themselves: A Case Study of the Women's Program of Acogipri

Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst

Subjects: subject: Education

description: This paper is the study of a process, namely of how a group of disabled women begin to re-frame how they see themselves, and how along with this re-framing, re-define their possibilities in their community and their world. The process was undertaken by the author and a group of disabled women in El Salvador who belonged to the Women's Program of ACOGIPRI in San Salvador. Using a family literacy model and alternative paradigm research as her basis for inquiry the author examines how disabled women can effectively use, in their everyday lives, their knowledges, their articulations and their experiences as a base for new "literacies" that will allow for the re-defining of interactions or the creation of new interactions in their families and communities that can foster personal development and increase the possibility to effect change in their external world. The research process took the form of interviews, a support group and eventually outreach into the community. This combination of activities helped these women, and the research, better understand how a group of people can meaningfully interact with existing "developmental programs," and when no program exists, develop meaningful alternatives that capitalize on the inherent strength, wisdom and insight of those struggling to be heard and seen.

description: Information acquisition in underwater sensor networks is usually limited by energy and bandwidth. Fortunately, the received signal can be represented sparsely on some basis. Therefore, a compressed sensing method can be used to collect the information by selecting a subset of the total sensor nodes. The conventional compressed sensing scheme is to select some sensor nodes randomly. The network lifetime and the correlation of sensor nodes are not considered. Therefore, it is significant to adjust the sensor node selection scheme according to these factors for the superior performance. In this paper, an optimized sensor node selection scheme is given based on Bayesian estimation theory. The advantage of Bayesian estimation is to give the closed-form expression of posterior density function and error covariance matrix. The proposed optimization problem first aims at minimizing the mean square error (MSE) of Bayesian estimation based on a given error covariance matrix. Then, the non-convex optimization problem is transformed as a convex semidefinite programming problem by relaxing the constraints. Finally, the residual energy of each sensor node is taken into account as a constraint in the optimization problem. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has better performance than a conventional compressed sensing scheme.
L'anglais comme élément esthétique dans l'oeuvre de Patrice Desbiens.

description: La litterature d'expression francaise de l'Ontario fait partie des litteratures emergentes qui puisent a leurs propres ressources culturelles pour creer une nouvelle esthetique. L'anglais est mis a profit par l'ecrivain Patrice Desbiens qui l'utilise, non seulement en guise d'element exogene destine a refleter le milieu sociolinguistique propre aux Franco-Ontariens, mais encore en l'integrant a la texture meme de son oeuvre poetique, au demeurant resolument de langue francaise. Chez Desbiens, le phenomene de l'alternance de code est examine minutieusement, avec une attention particuliere accordee aux questions de dosages, de modes d'ajointement, de champs semantiques et de metalangue, de facon a mettre en lumiere l'impact de ce dualisme linguistique sur le plan stylistique. La complementarite des deux idiomes en presence atteint un sommet avec le titre L'homme Invisible/The invisible Man. Malgre une apparente symetrie, les deux versions, anglaise et francaise, sont distinctes. A cause de cette diglossie litteraire, le recueil ne peut etre pleinement compris et apprecie que par une lecture concomitante des deux textes presentes en regard.
Analyse critique du projet politique de Slavoj Zizek

description: Face à une politique libérale centriste qui fait de plus en plus figure d'unique option politique, la gauche semble pour plusieurs signifier un projet du passé. Nous nous sommes donné pour objectif d'explorer les travaux de Slavoj Zizek afin de voir si le projet marxiste pouvait bénéficier des acquis de la post-modernité et ainsi se présenter comme un projet politique viable aujourd'hui. Slavoj Zizek, philosophe et psychanalyste slovène est en effet mieux connu pour ses efforts de renouvellement du marxisme, un marxisme qui se passe des fondations traditionnellement associées à cette école de pensée. En parcourant l'oeuvre de Zizek, nous avons pu juger des tensions existants dans ce mariage difficile entre marxisme et postmodernité. Bien qu'à la suite de notre étude il nous apparaisse que le marxisme, entendu comme projet politique visant un changement radical de la société, ne s'accommode pas facilement de l'anti-fondationalisme qui caractérise la pensée post-moderne, nous croyons que le projet reste néanmoins valable et porteur d'espoir pour le renouvellement de la pensée marxiste.

description: The involvement of DivIVA in cell division and chromosome segregation has been described in a number of Gram positive organisms. To date, most studies have focused on the effect of overexpression or disruption of DivIVA in various bacterial backgrounds. However, no detailed biochemical study of DivIVA has been conducted to identify which domains are responsible for the different functions of DivIVA. This study examines the coiled-coil domains of DivIVA from the Gram positive coccus Enterococcus faecalis to determine their role in oligomer formation. Preliminary localization studies of DivIVAEf in both homologous and heterologous backgrounds were also performed. While no conclusive results were obtained for GFP studies, immunogold electron microscopy of DivIVA in E. faecalis showed localization to the division septum and cell poles, similar to DivIVA from other organisms. Once proper GFP localization studies can be carried out, the bank of mutations generated in this study can be used to determine the region(s) of DivIVAEf involved in division site localization.
