description: Distribution losses contribute to energy shortages and therefore power outages in Nigeria’s industries. This work evaluated the technical losses in the distribution networks of selected industrial cities in Nigeria. Power flow simulation of network data collected over the period 2011-2015 from three distribution companies (DisCos) domiciled in these cities was done by Newton-Raphson (N-R) technique using the Electrical Transient and Analysis Program (ETAP) software version 12.6. Results of the power flow simulation showed that between 2011 and 2015 covered by the study, the cities of Lagos, Kano and Port Harcourt recorded a total power loss of 15.8 MW, 36.2 MW and 6.04 MW respectively. The findings also revealed that overloaded power transformers is part of the reasons for high losses in the distribution networks of some of the cities. The outcome of the study provides a guide for system planners and utility companies in providing for prioritisation and system upgrade to ensure improved efficiency of their distribution networks.

Expanding the Gap: How the Rural Property System Exacerbates China’s Urban-Rural Gap

description: There is a certain amount of romanticism attached to the Chinese peasantry. Few objects are more “Chinese” than a scroll painting of sun- darkened men and women with pointed straw hats tied to their heads working the rice fields beneath towering granite mountains. In addition to its simple serenity, there is also a calm consistency to this image, summarized in the following quotation: More people have lived in China than anywhere else. Upwards of 10 billion human beings have moved across her good earth; nowhere else have so many people lived so intimately with nature. A thousand generations have left their indelible impression on soil and topography, so that scarcely a square foot of earth remains unmodified by man…. Few landscapes are more human. Though the importance of the peasantry to Chinese history is beyond dispute, the focus of the modernization process that propelled China’s miraculous economic growth has been the industrialized cities. As a result, the average Chinese rural household today makes less than one-third of the average urban family, and the gap is widening.3 Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leaders fear that a further increase in this gap could lead to social instability and potentially jeopardize their ability to control the country in the current unitary fashion. This is of such a concern to the Party that it made the promotion of modern agriculture and the improvement of the position of peasants the focus of its 2007 Number One Document.

title: The Effects of Isolated Hamstring Fatigue on Jump Landing in Healthy Recreational Athletes

description: The musculature of the lower extremity provides dynamic stability during daily and athletic tasks. In landing tasks, the lower extremity absorbs forces and reduces excessive stresses and motions that are placed upon the body. Neuromuscular fatigue has been linked to an increase in injury and altered kinematics during jump landing tasks. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of hamstring fatigue on knee and hip kinematics pre and post hamstrings fatigue while landing from a box drop of 30cm height, during the stop-jump phase. The study aimed to quantify the kinematic data of the hip and knee in order to examine the lower extremity motion pattern variations following hamstring fatigue. Fourteen healthy female recreational athletes (age=21.4±1.45 yrs; height=165.14±8.26 cm; mass=65.56±16.43 kg) with no history of surgery, no ACL injury or current injury involving their lower extremity were subjects in the current study. Eccentric hamstring fatigue, a 30% eccentric isokinetic knee-flexor torque reduction, was induced on the dominant leg using Primus RS (BTE Technologies Inc). Kinematic data were processed using VICON Motion system during the box drop task both pre and post fatigue. Hip and knee kinematics were measured pre and post fatigue for maximum values, and at time instances of initial contact and maximum knee flexion values during the stop-jump phase of the bilateral box drop. Statistic tests included a univariate analysis of variance with repeated measures to analyze the hip and knee kinematics. A significant level of < .05 was set a priori for all analyses. Upon initial contact of the stance phase, hip flexion significantly increased post-fatigue (43.78±8.21, CI=39.03;48.52) than pre-fatigue (40.68±6.82, CI=36.71;44.62). No other significant difference was found at either the hip or knee for maximum values or at initial or maximum knee flexion. Our findings revealed fatigue of the hamstrings caused a disruption in hip kinematics at initial contact. Although fatigue adversely affects the muscular function, altered kinematics of the lower extremity during tasks may be highly dependent upon the fatigue task chosen. Subjects may have placed greater reliance on unfatigued musculature in the lower extremity to accomplish the box drop task.

description: The magnetic dipole strength and energy-weighted strength distribution is calculated in $^8\mbox{Be}$, as well as the separate orbit and spin parts. All $ΔN$=$2$ excitations over and above (and including) the configuration $0s^4$$0p^4$ are included. The interaction has a central, two-body spin-orbit and a tensor part. The energy- independent and energy-weighted {\underline orbital} strength distribution is remarkably insensitive to the presence or absence of the spin-orbit or tensor interaction -not so the spin strength. The energy-weighted strength distribution can be divided into a low enegy and a high energy part. The high energy orbital part is somewhat less but close to the low energy part, in fair agreement with a prediction that they be equal by de Guerra and Zamick and by Nojarov. There is a wide plateau separating the low energy part from the high energy part.

description: The Ginzburg-Landau model is a phenomenological description of superconductivity. A crucial feature of type-II superconductors is the occurrence of vortices, which appear above a certain value of the applied magnetic field called the first critical field. In this paper we estimate this value, when the Ginzburg-Landau parameter is large, and we characterize the behavior of the Meissner solution, the unique vortexless configuration that globally minimizes the Ginzburg-Landau energy below the first critical field. In addition, we show that beyond this value, for a certain range of the strength of the applied field, there exists a unique Meissner-type solution that locally minimizes the energy.

description: Generalized symmetries of the Einstein equations are infinitesimal transformations of the spacetime metric that formally map solutions of the Einstein equations to other solutions. The infinitesimal generators of these symmetries are assumed to be local, \ie at a given spacetime point they are functions of the metric and an arbitrary but finite number of derivatives of the metric at the point. We classify all generalized symmetries of the vacuum Einstein equations in four spacetime dimensions and find that the only generalized symmetry transformations consist of: (i) constant scalings of the metric (ii) the infinitesimal action of generalized spacetime diffeomorphisms. Our results rule out a large class of possible ``observables'' for the gravitational field, and suggest that the vacuum Einstein equations are not integrable.

description: To compete in this age of disruption, large companies cannot rely on cost efficiency, lead time reduction and quality improvement. They are now looking for ways to innovate like startups. Meanwhile, the awareness and use of the Lean startup approach have grown rapidly amongst the software startup community in recent years. This study investigates how Lean internal startup facilitates software product innovation in large companies and identifies its enablers and inhibitors. A multiple case study approach is followed in the investigation. Two software product innovation projects from two large companies are examined, using a conceptual framework that is based on the method-in-action framework and extended with the previously developed Lean-Internal Corporate Venture model. Seven face-to-face in-depth interviews of the employees with different roles are conducted. Within-case analysis and cross-case comparison are applied to draw the findings from the cases. A generic process flow summarises the common key processes of Lean internal startups. The findings suggest that an internal startup that is initiated management or employees faces different challenges. A list of enablers of applying Lean startup in large companies are identified, including top management support and cross-functional team. Both cases face different inhibitors due to the different process of inception, objective of the team and type of the product. Our contributions are threefold. First, this study is one of the first attempt to investigate the use of Lean startup approach in large companies empirically. Second, the study shows the potential of the method-in-action framework to investigate the Lean startup approach in non-startup context. The third is a general process of Lean internal startup and the evidence of the enablers and inhibitors of implementing it, which are both theory-informed and empirically grounded.

description: Stack Overflow (SO) has been a great source of natural language questions and their code solutions (i.e., question-code pairs), which are critical for many tasks including code retrieval and annotation. In most existing research, question-code pairs were collected heuristically and tend to have low quality. In this paper, we investigate a new problem of systematically mining question-code pairs from Stack Overflow (in contrast to heuristically collecting them). It is formulated as predicting whether or not a code snippet is a standalone solution to a question. We propose a novel Bi-View Hierarchical Neural Network which can capture both the programming content and the textual context of a code snippet (i.e., two views) to make a prediction. On two manually annotated datasets in Python and SQL domain, our framework substantially outperforms heuristic methods with at least 15% higher F1 and accuracy. Furthermore, we present StaQC (Stack Overflow Question-Code pairs), the largest dataset to date of ~148K Python and ~120K SQL question-code pairs, automatically mined from SO using our framework. Under various case studies, we demonstrate that StaQC can greatly help develop data-hungry models for associating natural language with programming language.

description: In the work we investigate some groupoids which are the Abelian algebras and the Hamiltonian algebras. An algebra is Abelian if for every polynomial operation and for all elements $a,b,\bar c,\bar d$ the implication $t(a,\bar c)=t(a,\bar d)\rightarrow t(b,\bar c)=t(b,\bar d)$ holds; an algebra is Hamiltonian if every subalgebra is a block of some congruence on the algebra. R.V. Warne in 1994 described the structure of the Abelian semigroups. In this work we describe the Abelian groupoids with identity, the Abelian finite quasigroups and the Abelian semigroups $S$ such that $abS=aS$ and $Sba=Sa$ for all $a,b\in S$. We prove that a finite Abelian quasigroup is a Hamiltonian algebra. We characterize the Hamiltonian groupoids with identity and semigroups under the condition of Abelian of this algebras.

description: Nigeria’s electricity infrastructure is inadequate, outdated and ill-maintained thereby resulting in perennial epileptic power supply to the industrial, commercial and residential sectors of the nation’s economy. More than half of the country’s population has no access to electricity and in order to make electricity available to more consumers, many independent power producers (IPPs) are adopting the distributed generation (DG) technologies. This paper investigated the challenges and prospects of DG in Nigeria’s post-privatized power sector through the extensive review of reports, position papers, legislative acts, policy documents etc. from statutory institutions and authorities in and outside Nigeria. The findings of the study show that despite the current challenges posed by underfunding, long investment neglect etc. of the energy sector, Nigeria has abundant natural resources to successfully implement and reap the full benefits of DG technologies. The paper recommends the prioritisation of DG by power sector stakeholders and government at all levels in the country in order to achieve electricity supply security for the nation’s industrial, commercial and residential sectors. The findings of this study will facilitate proper integration of smart grid technology into the national grid and help achieve adequate, stable and reliable electricity supply in Nigeria.

description: The government of the People’s Republic of China (P.R.C.) has announced its intention to make China a global leader in innovation by 2020. Many Chinese business leaders share this goal. The primary focus of this national strategy is to transform China into an exporter of high-technology products based on Chinese designs rather than merely a low cost, high volume manufacturer of products based on technology developed in other countries. This paper will examine the implications for this strategy with regard to the use of computerized management information systems by Chinese businesses, and its relationship to recent law reform efforts intended to promote greater use of electronic commerce among Chinese businesses. This paper considers three case studies of recent reforms of P.R.C. commercial law in light of their contributions to this strategy, and finds that the results so far are quite mixed. The first case study looks at a domestic standard for accounting software issued in 1989 that successfully removed obstacles to the greater use of computerized accounting systems by local businesses and promoted the growth of the domestic accounting software industry. The second and third case studies involve P.R.C. legislation based on model laws developed by United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) developed to assist legislators in trading nations to harmonize their national commercial laws in order to eliminate barriers to international trade. The second case study looks at the inclusion of general electronic commerce enabling legislation in the 1999 Contract Law which in theory removed impediments to the use of electronic commerce by Chinese businesses but in reality appears to be too abstract and general to provide much certainty to parties wishing to form contracts using electronic media. The third case study looks at the 2004 Electronic Signature Law which promotes the use of a specific type of technology for authentication. While it is too soon to know whether this law will achieve its intended objectives in China, evidence from other countries with similar laws suggests that it may not.

description: Most standalone Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems in Nigeria are of the fixed standalone type and are fixed either on the roof of a building, at the top of an iron pole or other unmovable positions and so, do not produce required maximum energy conversion due to the varying movement of the sun in the sky. Recent studies have shown that the amount of electric power generated by PV arrays varies continuously with weather conditions. Even under clear weather conditions, the position of the sun changes during the day, which in the case of fixed installed solar panels leads to changes in the effective surface of the solar panels towards the sun and a decreased output power. At present, PV energy conversion efficiency stands at between 9% and 18% depending on the solar cells used, especially in low irradiation conditions. For any PV system, therefore, one option is to increase the energy produced by solar panels through solar tracking. The paper focuses on developing an automatic sun tracking system with the ability to direct solar panels continuously in optimal position to the sun, thus improving the overall efficiency of the PV system.

description: It is shown that the SU(3) symmetry of the fermion dynamical symmetry model is essentially preserved even for highly nondegenerate spherical single-particle energies. The breaking of SU(3) symmetry by single-particle energy terms for either normal deformation or superdeformation occurs only through an indirect Pauli effect and is significant only when the spherical single-particle splitting within shells is artificially large relative to that observed experimentally.

description: This work proposes a superconvergent hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for the approximation of the Cauchy formulation of the Stokes equation using same degree of polynomials for the primal and mixed variables. The novel formulation relies on the well-known Voigt notation to strongly enforce the symmetry of the stress tensor. The proposed strategy introduces several advantages with respect to the existing HDG formulations. First, it remedies the suboptimal behavior experienced by the classical HDG method for formulations involving the symmetric part of the gradient of the primal variable. The optimal convergence of the mixed variable is retrieved and an element-by-element post-process procedure leads to a superconvergent velocity field, even for low-order approximations. Second, no additional enrichment of the discrete spaces is required and a gain in computational efficiency follows from reducing the quantity of stored information and the size of the local problems. Eventually, the novel formulation naturally imposes physical tractions on the Neumann boundary. Numerical validation of the optimality of the method and its superconvergent properties is performed in 2D and 3D using meshes of different element types.

description: The present paper proposes generalized Gaussian kernel adaptive filtering, where the kernel parameters are adaptive and data-driven. The Gaussian kernel is parametrized by a center vector and a symmetric positive definite (SPD) precision matrix, which is regarded as a generalization of the scalar width parameter. These parameters are adaptively updated on the basis of a proposed least-square-type rule to minimize the estimation error. The main contribution of this paper is to establish update rules for precision matrices on the SPD manifold in order to keep their symmetric positive-definiteness. Different from conventional kernel adaptive filters, the proposed regressor is a superposition of Gaussian kernels with all different parameters, which makes such regressor more flexible. The kernel adaptive filtering algorithm is established together with a l1-regularized least squares to avoid overfitting and the increase of dimensionality of the dictionary.

On tunneling at finite energies and temperatures
Creators: name: Hsu, Stephen D. H.

description: We study the contribution of finite energy tunneling to the total vacuum transition rate in a system at finite temperature. We find that in certain models, such as the 1+1 Abelian Higgs model, the quantum contribution is non-negligible even at large temperatures. We show how the persistence of the cosmological baryon asymmetry yields a bound on the inclusive two particle cross section in the anomalous (B violating) sector.

National Markets and New Defenses: The Case for an East Asian Opt-in Takeover Law
Creators: name: Pak, Bliss Burdett
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 2007

description: The arrival of Anglo-Saxon source capital to East Asia has brought with it the debate over corporate takeover defenses and the appropriate allocation of power among shareholders and directors of public companies. Takeover defenses such as poison pills, staggered boards and judicial permission to “just say no” to an unsolicited takeover bid all are the focus of intense discussion among companies that, due to prior state or family control, had previously been immune to takeover attempts. Complicating the debate is the history of cross- and circular- shareholdings, which has worked in East Asia to concentrate control of a vast proportion of national resources in a few corporate conglomerates. Additionally complicating and coloring the policy debate is the impact of foreign investors in national champion companies, and the often- divergent interests and expectations among financial investors, shareholder activists, local employees and other stakeholders.

description: Energy shortages is the major challenge facing the industrial sector in Nigeria. This paper assessed the energy shortages due to technical losses in the Nigerian distribution network and the cost implications. The study was carried out based on network data collected over the period 2011-2015 from three electricity distribution companies (DisCos) drawn from the three major industrial cities of Nigeria. These data were simulated on the Electrical Transient Analysis program (ETAP) Version 12.6. The calculated energy losses for these cities for the said period are 108,959.87 MWH, 149,256 MWH and 72,743.08 MWH respectively. The corresponding revenue losses are N2,434,164,012, N3,538,754,758.8 and N1,699,751,530.1 respectively. The paper suggested remedial measures to reduce energy losses, mitigate losses arising from unannounced electricity cuts as well as achieve a more efficient and reliable electricity distribution network. The outcome of this research provides a data bank for policy makers and future researchers in the areas of electricity generation, transmission and distribution.

description: Using a high-speed and broadband radio frequency (RF) (0.1-1 GHz) spectrum analyzer developed on the KSTAR tokamak, it is found that several distinct stages of RF emission appear at the pedestal collapse in high confinement discharges. Comparison with 2-D electron cyclotron emission (ECE) images has revealed that each stage is related to the instantaneous condition at the outboard mid-plane edge. First, high-harmonic ion cyclotron emissions (ICE) are intensified with the appearance of a non-modal filamentary perturbation in the edge within several tens of microseconds before the collapse. Then, the RF emission becomes broad toward high-frequency range (< 500 MHz) at the burst onset of the non-modal filament. During the pedestal collapse initiated by the filament burst, rapid chirping (1-3 μs) appear with additional filament bursts. The strong correlation between the RF spectra and the perturbation structure provides important clues on the stability of edge-localized modes and on the ion dynamics in the plasma boundary.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Public Opinion Supervision: A Case Study of Media Freedom in China
Creators: name: Cheung, Anne S. Y.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Asian Law
Year: 2007

description: Since the late 1970s, the People’s Republic of China has experienced a rise of investigative journalism along with economic liberalization. Scholars contend that with the introduction of capitalism and the consequent relaxation of media control, a degree of real press freedom has crept into China’s society.4 In particular, scholars highlight a unique phenomenon known as yulunjiandu, or “public opinion supervision,” where citizen awareness of an issue is mobilized to act as a check against the state, to influence court decisions, or to push for legislative or policy reforms. The media plays a critical role in this process. Many perceive the media as a positive force in China through which the public can be heard, and some equate public opinion supervision to a form of media monitoring, where the media serves as an independent watchdog monitoring the government.

description: This study investigated transformer loadings and failure rate in the Onitsha Electricity Distribution Network by using the Electrical Transient Analysis Program (ETAP) software 12.6 and the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software 16.0. Data collected over the period 2011-2015 on the distribution network were simulated on ETAP software using the Newton-Raphson (N-R) technique to determine the transformer loadings while responses to 350 copies of questionnaire distributed among the technical staff were statistically analysed on the SPSS software to ascertain the failure rate among transformers in the network. The findings of the study show that during the 5 years period covered by the study, the sampled substations recorded transformer average failure rate of 11.7 %. It was further revealed that besides insulation issues which accounted for 24.2% of all the failures, overload (22.5%) was the next major cause of transformer breakdowns in the distribution network. The study recommends installation of more transformer units, use of high quality transformers, balanced loading of the transformers and proactive inspection and maintenance program of transformers units within the network. The outcome of this work would help electricity utilities provide more reliable and cost effective services to customers.

description: The identification of regional development gaps is an effort to see how far the development conducted in every District in a Province. By seeing the gaps occurred, it is expected that the Policymakers are able to determine which region that will be prioritized for future development. Along with the regional gaps, the identification in Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) sector is also an effort to identify the achievement in the development in certain fields seen from the potential GRDP owned by a District. There are two approaches that are often used to identify the regional development gaps and potential sector, Klassen Typology and Location Quotient (LQ), respectively. In fact, the results of the identification using these methods have not been able to show the proximity of the development gaps between a District to another yet in a same cluster. These methods only cluster the regions and GRDP sectors in a firm cluster based on their own parameter values. This research develops a new approach that combines the Klassen, LQ and hierarchical agglomerative clustering (HAC) into a new method named multi view hierarchical agglomerative clustering (MVHAC). The data of GRDP sectors of 23 Districts in West Java province were tested by using Klassen, LQ, HAC and MVHAC and were then compared. The results show that MVHAC is able to accommodate the ability of the three previous methods into a unity, even to clearly visualize the proximity of the development gaps between the regions and GRDP sectors owned. MVHAC clusters 23 districts into 3 main clusters, they are, Cluster 1 (Quadrant 1) consists of 5 Districts as the members, Cluster 2 (Quadrant 2) consists of 12 Districts and Cluster 3 (Quadrant 4) consists of 6 Districts.

description: A delicate interplay between the anomalous magnetic moments of the proton and neutron makes, in magnetic fields $B\ge 2\times 10^{14}$ T, the neutron stable and for fields $B\ge 5\times 10^{14}$ T the proton becomes unstable to a decay into a neutron via $β$ emission. Limits on the field strengths for which these arguments hold are presented and are related to questions of vacuum stability in the presence of such fields. Possible astrophysical consequences are discussed.
