title: The Bachelor Primetime Construction of Romance, Fairy Tales, and Melodrama
Creators: name: Beck, Susan E.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: This thesis is centered on the reality television program The Bachelor. Presenting itself as a modem day Cinderella story, The Bachelor speaks directly to women's fantasies and their familiarity with fairy tales. In the process, women are molded into convenient and stale stereotypes. Furthermore, the show uses melodrama to create suspense as well as sensational episodes and romantic sentiments to keep the viewer tuned in. Instead of "reality" the show highlights a series of marginalized, sexualized, commodified, and pacified women who place marriage at the epicenter of their selfworth. From Queen for a Day to The Phil Donahue Show. The Bachelor is the newest in a continuum of shows for women, about women. The show tells us about women, how we see ourselves, and sometimes reveals more than we want to know about ourselves. The Bachelor is a meticulously crafted device in which fairy tales, fantasies, and melodrama are used to create narrative stories, stories that distort the ways in which men and women interact, and stories that present deceptive conclusions about love, romance, and courtship.
The targum (1942:Dec. 4 - 1942:Dec. 23)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied

Year: 1942

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: We present infrared spectra (0.1-1 eV) of electrostatically gated bilayer graphene as a function of doping and compare it with tight binding calculations. All major spectral features corresponding to the expected interband transitions are identified in the spectra: a strong peak due to transitions between parallel split-off bands and two onset-like features due to transitions between valence and conduction bands. A strong gate voltage dependence of these structures and a significant electron-hole asymmetry is observed that we use to extract several band parameters. Surprisingly, the structures related to the gate-induced bandgap are much less pronounced in the experiment than predicted by the tight binding model.

description: We have studied the electronic structure of Zn$_{0.9}$Fe$_{0.1}$O nano-particles, which have been reported to show ferromagnetism at room temperature, by x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), resonant photoemission spectroscopy (RPES), x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). From the experimental and cluster-model calculation results, we find that Fe atoms are predominantly in the Fe$^{3+}$ ionic state with mixture of a small amount of Fe$^{2+}$ and that Fe$^{3+}$ ions are dominant in the surface region of the nano-particles. It is shown that the room temperature ferromagnetism in the Zn$_{0.9}$Fe$_{0.1}$O nano-particles is primarily originated from the antiferromagnetic coupling between unequal amounts of Fe$^{3+}$ ions occupying two sets of nonequivalent positions in the region of the XMCD probing depth of $\sim$ 2-3 nm.

description: This article introduces SatHyS (SAT HYbrid Solver), a novel hybrid approach for propositional satisfiability. It combines local search and conflict driven clause learning (CDCL) scheme. Each time the local search part reaches a local minimum, the CDCL is launched. For SAT problems it behaves like a tabu list, whereas for UNSAT ones, the CDCL part tries to focus on minimum unsatisfiable sub-formula (MUS). Experimental results show good performances on many classes of SAT instances from the last SAT competitions.
Conditions favouring growth of fresh water biofouling in hydraulic canals and the impact of biofouling on pipe flows
Creators: name: Li, XL

Year: 2023

description: Biofouling increases frictional resistance and slows the water flow in fresh water canals and pipes. It results in up to 10% reduction in the flow carrying capacity in hydropower canals in Tasmania, Australia. This project investigated the effect of colour on the growth of biofouling in open channels and the impact of biofouling in pipes and penstocks. The effect of substratum colour on the growth of biofouling was studied by submerging mild steel plates painted with four different coloured epoxy coatings in fresh water. The plates were placed in a concrete lined canal for a period of time to allow biofouling to grow. Results show that black was the favoured colour for the growth of biofouling whereas the white plates developed the least amount. The amount of biofouling increases progressively from white to grey to black at the settlement stage of biofouling. However, the effect of colour on the growth of biofouling became less significant when the biofouling was fully developed. It was found that the amount of light also affected the growth of biofouling. Under full sunlight and slow flow conditions(1 m/s), plates with lower total light intensity and lower UV light exhibited higher levels of biofouling. In addition to open channels, biofouling also causes head losses in cooling water pipes and penstocks in hydroelectric power stations. The influence of water quality on the growth of biofouling was investigated by analysing water quality data of eight lakes used for hydroelectric power generation. It was found that power stations with fewer biofouling problems in their cooling pipes use water with a higher pH value and dissolved oxygen level, while having lower water conductivity, water turbidity, iron, manganese, aluminium and nutrients. A new pipe rig was designed and built to investigate the impact of biofouling on pipe flows. Located in the hydraulics laboratory at the University of Tasmania, this consisted of a removable test section that was placed in a purpose built field test rig installed in a hydropower station canal. The pressure drop across the test section and velocity profiles under different flow rates were measured for both clean and fouled conditions. Results show that biofouling increased the head loss along the test section and changed the shape of the velocity profiles. This data did not fit the widely used Colebrook-White equation.

description: Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) and Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) are of clinical and economic importance for the global poultry industry. Many countries and integrations are involved in monitoring programmes to control both mycoplasma species. This review provides an extensive historic overview of the last seven decades on the development of the knowledge regarding the factors that influence the clinical expression of the disease, the epidemiology, and monitoring of both MG and MS. This includes the detection of new virulent strains, studies unravelling the transmission routes, survival characteristics, and the role of other avian hosts. Also the role of molecular typing tests in unravelling epidemiology and factors that complicate the interpretation of test results is discussed. The latter includes the presence of heterologous mycoplasma infections, the use of heterologous oil-emulsion vaccines, and the use of antibiotic treatments. Also the occurrence of MG and MS strains with low virulence and the use of live and/or inactivated MS and MS vaccines are discussed.
A theory for magnetic-field effects of nonmagnetic organic semiconducting materials

description: A universal mechanism for strong magnetic-field effects of nonmagnetic organic semiconductors is presented. A weak magnetic field (less than hundreds mT) can substantially change the charge carrier hopping coefficient between two neighboring organic molecules when the magnetic length is not too much longer than the molecule-molecule separation and localization length of electronic states involved. Under the illumination of lights or under a high electric field, the change of hopping coefficients leads also to the change of polaron density so that photocurrent, photoluminescence, electroluminescence, magnetoresistance and electrical-injection current become sensitive to a weak magnetic field. The present theory can not only explain all observed features, but also provide a solid theoretical basis for the widely used empirical fitting formulas.

description: Newcastle disease virus (NDV) affects commercial poultry as well as other avian species in the wild and in captivity. Although the diversity of NDV in domestic chickens has been well understood, little light has been shed on NDV outbreaks in other avian species. We provide an annotated sequence of NDV/Owl/Guwahati/01/20, a virulent strain of NDV isolated from barn owls in captivity from Guwahati in Northeast India. The complete genome is 15,192 base pairs long with a fusion protein (F) cleavage site 112KRQKR↓F117. The isolate showed 97.67% identity with its closest match, another highly virulent strain from Indonesia isolated from vaccinated commercial chickens; however, they differ in the F cleavage site. The NDV isolate from the owl shares 83.02% and 81.88% identity with the vaccine strains R2B and LaSota, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis with F gene as well as whole-genome nucleotide sequence reveals that the NDV isolate from owl belongs to genotype VII, subgenotype VII.2, and differs significantly from all other isolates of NDV from India.

description: Adaptation to environmental change is a common property of biological systems. Cells initially respond to external changes in the environment, but after some time, they regain their original state. By considering an element consisting of two variables that show such adaptation dynamics, we studied a coupled dynamical system containing such elements to examine the diverse dynamics in the system and classified the behaviors on the basis of the network structure that determined the interaction among elements. For a system with two elements, two types of behaviors, perfect adaptation and simple oscillation, were observed. For a system with three elements, in addition to these two types, novel types of dynamics, namely, rapid burst-type oscillation and a slow cycle, were discovered; depending on the initial conditions, these novel types of dynamics coexisted. These behaviors are a result of the characteristic dynamics of each element, i.e., fast response and slow adaptation processes. The behaviors depend on the network structure (in specific, a combination of positive or negative feedback among elements). Cooperativity among elements due to a positive feedback loop leads to simple oscillation, whereas frustration involving alternating positive and negative interactions among elements leads to the coexistence of rapid bursting oscillation and a slow cycle. These behaviors are classified on the basis of the frustration indices defined by the network structure. The period of the slow cycle is much longer than the original adaptation time scale, while the burst-type oscillation is a continued response that does not involve any adaptation. We briefly discuss the universal applicability of our results to a network of a larger number of elements and their possible relevance to biological systems.

From Man to Monster: A case study of The Mercury's news framing of Martin Bryant and the Port Arthur massacre
Creators: name: Rigoli, E
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis seeks to explore a framing analysis of the 1996 Port Arthur massacre with specific emphasis on the identity constructions of its perpetrator, Martin Bryant. It will do this with a framing analysis in order to examine how the local Tasmanian newspaper, The Mercury, framed Martin Bryant from the moment reporting of the massacre began on 29 April, up until Martin Bryant's conviction on 23 November, 1996. This thesis demonstrates that Martin Bryant was subjectively framed in The Mercury's news reports as a consequence of being labelled as a violent, mentally ill mass murderer, which may have had potential 'framing effects' on public perceptions of the Port Arthur massacre, its perpetrator and the concepts of 'mental illness' and 'criminality'.
William Carlos Williams and the dance
Creators: name: Field, Roger Michael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The thesis is, that the dance, as metaphor and as ordering function, is central to an understanding of William Carlos Williams' poetry and of his activity as poet. The first chapter, which is a ground for what follows, begins with a close examination of "The Rose" from Spring and All as a demonstration of some of Williams' basic principles concerning the act of making the poem. My emphasis is on what one can observe happening in the poem itself, the poem as enactment or dance. I then proceed to examine the prose passages from Spring and All as statement of those principles, in order to establish the meaning of some terms, imitation, engagement, imagination, as Williams uses them "both as theory in the prose descriptions and as actuality in the poems. The second chapter deals with the notion of dance as alternative to description, the action or enactment in a poem, which Williams calls imitation. I attempt to show what dance is, the metaphor of it, and how it might manifest itself in (as) language, that is to say, the energy of the poem as dance. Then, in the light of several poems included in the text of the chapter, I discuss imitation in terms of composition and invention, what Williams considers the basic activities of the poet in the making of a poem. The third chapter deals with the act of engagement as dance, to engage in an activity, making love or writing a poem. I attempt to show, by reference to several of Williams' short stories and to In the American Grain, as well as to the poems, some of the kinds of perceptions and awareness that are characteristic of this kind of engagement, and how they shape the poem; and, in the end, to come to an understanding of what Williams means by penetration. In the fourth chapter, measure as dance, I examine some of Williams' ideas and practice in the rhythm and form of the poem, to show how measure is the shape the dance assumes, and how Williams resolved some of his own difficulties concerning the problem of measure. And the chapter concludes with a restatement of, and an insistence upon, the importance of the metaphor of dance. My purpose has not been to attempt a historic analysis or evaluation of Williams as critic and theorist, or as poet – though the fact of the thesis does imply certain judgements of value, and the text of it is, to some degree, analytical -- but to demonstrate and elucidate, by making the dance a basis for my discussions, some of Williams' primary concerns as poet. My emphasis, then, has not been on the views and theories of other critics, not on chronological developments in the poems themselves, but on the facts of the dance, immediate and actual.

description: We present the luminosity function and selection function of 60 micron galaxies selected from the Imperial IRAS-FSC Redshift Catalogue (IIFSCz). Three methods, including the 1/Vmax} and the parametric and non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator, are used and results agree well with each other. A density evolution proportional to (1+z)^3.4 or a luminosity evolution exp(1.7 t_L / τ)$ where t_L is the look-back time is detected in the full sample in the redshift range [0.02, 0.1], consistent with previous analyses. Of the four infrared subpopulations, cirrus-type galaxies and M82-type starbursts show similar evolutionary trends, galaxies with significant AGN contributions show stronger positive evolution and Arp 220-type starbursts exhibit strong negative evolution. The dominant subpopulation changes from cirrus-type galaxies to M82-type starbursts at log (L_60 / L_Sun) ~ 10.3. In the second half of the paper, we derive the projected two-point spatial correlation function for galaxies of different infrared template type. The mean relative bias between cirrus-type galaxies and M82-type starbursts, which correspond to quiescent galaxies with optically thin interstellar dust and actively star-forming galaxies respectively, is calculated to be around 1.25. The relation between current star formation rate (SFR) in star-forming galaxies and environment is investigated by looking at the the dependence of clustering on infrared luminosity. We found that M82-type actively star-forming galaxies show stronger clustering as infrared luminosity / SFR increases. The correlation between clustering strength and SFR in the local Universe seems to echo the basic trend seen in star-forming galaxies in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) fields at z ~ 1.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study examines the residential subdivision of land in rural areas within the context of Community Planning Area Number 14 in the Regional District of Comox-Strathcona, British Columbia. Two separate elements comprise the major portion of the study. Interviews with a select sample of developers who practise within the Community Planning Area provide information about the extent and practise of residential land development in the study area. The interview schedule is designed to elicit both facts and opinions. The analysis of these interviews supplies the necessary background for the study. A random sample of residential subdivisions provides the basis for subdivision case studies. Each sample subdivision is subjected to a physical evaluation in terms of commonly accepted planning standards and principles for location and design. The extent to which the sample subdivisions meet the needs of the residents is discovered through interviews with the residents. These interviews are designed to elicit facts, opinions and levels of satisfaction pertaining to the subdivisions. The background to the problem and the methodology of the study are described. Concepts of residential subdivision location and design are discussed. The results of the comparative physical evaluation of the sample subdivisions and the results of the interviews with residents are also discussed. Conclusions are made about the location and design of the subdivisions and about the level of satisfaction which the residents express. It is shown in the study that "rural area residential subdivisions" in Community Planning Area Number 14 do not conform with accepted planning standards and principles. However, it is also shown that the needs of residents who have chosen to live in these subdivisions are satisfied despite those deficiencies.
Information systems research in Australia : development and diversity, 1980-1996
Creators: name: Ridley, G
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: There are many advantages in understanding the nature of a discipline and how progress has been achieved in its development. Although it has been recognised since the 1970s that disciplinary development is a social process, there is a dearth of empirical studies about the development of the IS discipline set within such a context. Instead, studies of the development of the IS discipline treated it as \historically and sociologically isolated\" (Whitley 1984) and generally referred to theoretical or methodological issues. This broad ranging empirical study examined mainstream Information Systems (IS) research in Australian universities between 1980 and 1996 and compared it against three models developed to predict its evolution. The investigation had three goals the first of which was to investigate the demography of Australian IS researchers by examining their numbers and research education between 1980 and 1996. The second goal was to characterise Australian academic IS researcher output during the investigation period. Multiple facets of the phenomenon were examined for the characterisation including the scope epistemology research methods and quality of the research published over the period. The results of the first two goals were used to achieve the third goal which was to determine the degree of diversity displayed in Australian IS academic research between 1980 and 1996. The third goal tested an assumption in the literature of increasing diversity in IS research (Benbasat & Weber 1996). Another objective of the study that was undertaken in parallel with the achievement of the three goals was to investigate the contribution of some social mechanisms and processes to the development of the IS discipline in a region. In order to be able to do so the role of IS-specific research education journals and conferences scientific communities and researcher collaboration was examined. The methods used in the study included email surveys of201 Australian IS researchers and a literature analysis of 336 Australian refereed papers from ten leading publication outlets. Although other factors had impacted on its development the pattern of change of the research higher education of the researchers was found to be a major influence on the nature and development of Australian IS research for the period. It was concluded that the development of IS research higher degree programmes contributed to the establishment of Australian IS mainstream research traditions and invisible colleges which appeared from around 1993. Despite an expectation of increased diversity in Australian IS research some convincing indications of convergence were found signs that are likely to be associated with a positive development of the Australian IS research discipline and its traditions."

description: Finding a new control parameter for magnetic domain wall (DW) motion in magnetic nanostructures is important in general and in particular for the spintronics applications. Here, we show that a circularly polarized magnetic field (CPMF) at GHz frequency (microwave) can efficiently drive a DW to propagate along a magnetic nanowire. Two motion modes are identified: rigid-DW propagation at low frequency and oscillatory propagation at high frequency. Moreover, DW motion under a CPMF is equivalent to the DW motion under a uniform spin current in the current perpendicular to the plane magnetic configuration proposed recently by Khvalkovskiy et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 067206 (2009)], and the CPMF frequency plays the role of the current.

description: The paper presents higher dimension consensus (HDC) for large-scale networks. HDC generalizes the well-known average-consensus algorithm. It divides the nodes of the large-scale network into anchors and sensors. Anchors are nodes whose states are fixed over the HDC iterations, whereas sensors are nodes that update their states as a linear combination of the neighboring states. Under appropriate conditions, we show that the sensor states converge to a linear combination of the anchor states. Through the concept of anchors, HDC captures in a unified framework several interesting network tasks, including distributed sensor localization, leader-follower, distributed Jacobi to solve linear systems of algebraic equations, and, of course, average-consensus. In many network applications, it is of interest to learn the weights of the distributed linear algorithm so that the sensors converge to a desired state. We term this inverse problem the HDC learning problem. We pose learning in HDC as a constrained non-convex optimization problem, which we cast in the framework of multi-objective optimization (MOP) and to which we apply Pareto optimality. We prove analytically relevant properties of the MOP solutions and of the Pareto front from which we derive the solution to learning in HDC. Finally, the paper shows how the MOP approach resolves interesting tradeoffs (speed of convergence versus quality of the final state) arising in learning in HDC in resource constrained networks.

description: Far red spectra for 22 stars in the Camelopardalis and the northern Perseus dark clouds, suspected to be pre-main-sequence objects (YSOs), are obtained. This evolutionary status is confirmed for ten stars located in the dust and molecular cloud close to the high-mass protostar GL 490, four stars near the H II region Sh2-205 and one star in the dark cloud TGU 1041. All of these objects exhibit emission in the H alpha line and some of them emission in the O I and Ca II lines. The spectral energy distributions, equivalent widths of the emission lines and approximate spectral classes are determined. Evolutionary stages of the stars are estimated from 2MASS, IRAS and MSX infrared photometry. Now we have spectral confirmation of the YSO status for 14 stars in the GL 490 area and 8 stars at Sh2-205. Their spectral types are from A to K, but most of them are either Herbig Ae stars or intermediate objects between T Tauri type and Herbig stars. Both these star forming regions are located near the outer edge of the Local arm at a distance of 900 pc.

description: We derive density-dependent corrections to the in-medium nucleon-nucleon interaction from the leading-order chiral three-nucleon force. To this order there are six distinct one-loop diagrams contributing to the in-medium nucleon-nucleon scattering T-matrix. Analytic expressions are presented for each of these in both isospin-symmetric nuclear matter as well as nuclear matter with a small isospin asymmetry. The results are combined with the low-momentum nucleon-nucleon potential V(low-k) to obtain an effective density-dependent interaction suitable for nuclear structure calculations. The in-medium interaction is decomposed into partial waves up to orbital angular momentum L = 2. Our results should be particularly useful in calculations where an exact treatment of the chiral three-nucleon force would otherwise be computationally prohibitive.

description: The current distribution of language size in terms of speaker population is generally described using a lognormal distribution. Analyzing the original real data we show how the double-Pareto lognormal distribution can give an alternative fit that indicates the existence of a power law tail. A simple Monte Carlo model is constructed based on the processes of competition and fragmentation. The results reproduce the power law tails of the real distribution well and give better results for a poorly connected topology of interactions.

The Tabberabberan orogeny in Northwest Tasmania
Creators: name: Seymour, DB
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: In the Black Bluff region of Northwestern Tasmania, Cambrian sedimentary and volcanic rocks are distributed in an arcuate belt around the northwest margin of the Tyennan Geanticline, which is composed of Precambrian greenschistgrade metaquartzites and metapelites. The volcanics, which are dominated by heavily altered intermediate to acid pyroclastics, are concentrated in the southern part of the belt which borders the margin of the geanticline. The Cambrian rocks are unconformably overlain by Lower Ordovician quartzose clastics and Middle Ordovician limestones. Movements responsible for the angular discordance are inferred to have been dominantly vertical and responsible for steep tilting of the Cambrian sequences and considerable uplift of the Tyennan Geanticline, which became the source area for the sediments immediately overlying the unconformity. The quartzose clastics were mainly deposited in terrestrial alluvial fan environments, although marginal marine sedimentation became progressively more important upwards in the sequence. Intertidal sedimentary environments persisted during deposition of the limestone sequence, but relief of the Precambrian source areas had by early Hiddle Or.dovician time been reduced to such an extent that terrigenous influx was insignificant. Hiddle Devonian deformation of the Palaeozoic rocks, at high crustal levels, produced open, upright, horizontal to gently plunging folds of variable trend. The Tyennan Geanticline behaved as a relatively rigid block during this deformation, which has been correlated with the Tabberabberan Orogeny, of regional importance in southeastern Australia. The structural development now recognized involves a progressive sequence of regional folding on axes which trend east (Dl), northeast (D2), north (D3) and northwest to north-northwest (D4). The last three phases of folding were associated with development of axial plane cleavage in the more ductile lithologies. Localized folding on east-northeast axes and associated cleavage postdates 02, and may have occurred between D2 and D3. The relative timing of fold and cleavage development on west-northwest trends in the limestone at Loongana and Gunns Plains is uncertain. Previous conclusions regarding dating of the Tabberabberan deformation may need reconsideration in view of the newly proposed structural sequence.

Van der Waals density functional: an appropriate exchange functional

description: In this paper, an exchange functional which is compatible with the non-local Rutgers-Chalmers correlation functional (vdW-DF) is presented. This functional, when employed with vdW-DF, demonstrates remarkable improvements on intermolecular separation distances while further improving the accuracy of vdW-DF interaction energies. The key to the success of this three parameter functional is its reduction of short range exchange repulsion through matching to the gradient exchange approximation in the slowly varying/high density limit while recovering the large reduced gradient, s, limit set in the revised PBE exchange functional. This augmented exchange functional could be a solution to long-standing issues of vdW-DF lending to further applicability of density functional theory to the study of relatively large, dispersion bound (van der Waals) complexes.

title: Rereading and rewriting African women : Ama Ata Aidoo and Bessie Head.
Creators: name: Chetin, Sara
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 1991

description: This thesis explores female subjectivity in the works of two African women writers, Ama Ata Aidoo and Bessie Head. Reacting against distorted and limited androcentric assumptions about femaleness, these two writers have inscribed an African female-centred consciousness that contests women's marginality in African literature." Their thematic concerns, genre choice, and narrative strategies contribute to an understanding of the ways in which they use language to construct an historically specific female subjectivity. Questions such as audience and narrative distancing are considered in order to establish the problematic nature of interpreting culturally coded texts from a first world feminist perspective. The contextual framework identifies three areas of "male constructs" used by Achebe, Armah, Soyinka, Ngugi, Sembene and Farah. Specific texts that employ female characters for their mythical, allegorical or metaphorical potential are analysed to establish the ways male writers often deny the diversity and importance of female experience, seeking to reify it within fixed parameters. By contrast, Aidoo and Head create a variety of characters who voice individual and communal gender-specific conflicts produced by their sociohistorical realities. Their perceptions and sensibilities as African women are influenced by their different backgrounds and relationships to their communities; their narrative perspectives, which involve the use of oral storytelling techniques, dramatize the fluid and complex nature of the subjectivity they inscribe. Their use of language to establish a distance between themselves and their non-African readership is examined in order to illuminate the political difficulties inherent in deconstructing feminism within an international framework.

description: We adopt a covariant formalism to derive exact evolution equations for nonlinear perturbations, in a universe dominated by two scalar fields. These scalar fields are characterized by non-canonical kinetic terms and an arbitrary field space metric, a situation typically encountered in inflationary models inspired by string theory. We decompose the nonlinear scalar perturbations into adiabatic and entropy modes, generalizing the definition adopted in the linear theory, and we derive the corresponding exact evolution equations. We also obtain a nonlinear generalization of the curvature perturbation on uniform density hypersurfaces, showing that on large scales it is sourced only by the nonlinear version of the entropy perturbation. We then expand these equations to second order in the perturbations, using a coordinate based formalism. Our results are relatively compact and elegant and enable one to identify the new effects coming from the non-canonical structure of the scalar fields Lagrangian. We also explain how to analyze, in our formalism, the interesting scenario of multifield Dirac-Born-Infeld inflation.
