description: We present a dielectric study on the dynamics of supercooled glycerol during crystallization. We explore the transformation into a solid phase in real time by monitoring the temporal evolution of the amplitude of the dielectric signal. Neither the initial nucleation or the crystal growth influence the liquid dynamics visibly. For one of the samples studied, a tiny fraction of glycerol remained in the disordered state after the end of the transition. We examined the nature of the alpha relaxation in this frustrated crystal and find that it is virtually identical to the bulk dynamics. In addition to that, we have found no evidence that supercooled glycerol transforms into a peculiar phase where either a new solid amorphous state or nano-crystals dispersed in a liquid matrix are formed.

Year: 2011

description: This study attempts to explain the civil service reform in the delivery of public services which is implemented in Adama city administration. It aims at assessing whether the reform achieved the intended objectives about efficiency and effectives in the delivery of services, to render better quality services and be accountable for its failure, to produce committed citizens, and to bring attitudinal change towards public service delivery. To this end, the study starts by explaining the overall move for reform globally and then narrows its scope. It also deals with assessing the factors that led to the achievement or failure of the process in Adama city administration. The study presents data collected from the field using a qualitative and quantitative approach. The instruments used to gather the data are questionnaires, interviews, observation and documents. However, the data collected draws a complex picture. It indicates that some reform measures are successful while others unsuccessful. For instance, the number of clients served has increased to some extent, time of queuing for services is reduced or services rendered per hour has increased and decentralized delivery of services at Kebele level. On the other hand, capacity building and behavioral change towards serving clients in fair manner are not observed. The study reveals factors that impeded the achievement of the reform process like limited resources, poor communication of the reform objective, small amount of remuneration, and lack of local ownership of reform. As a general assessment, the reform has achieved its objectives to some extent in the delivery of services and the study concludes with suggestions of what the future reformers should strive to do for successful reforms
title: Development and analysis of hybrid renewable energy system for offshore oil and gas rigs

description: Over the years, the decline of capital expenditure (CAPEX) on offshore wind turbine generation (WTG) and battery energy storage systems (BESS) has led to great interest in the electrification of offshore oil and gas (O&G) platforms with renewable sources. This will reduce the carbon footprint as the on-board gas turbine generation (GTG) can be removed. The state of the art has presented that O&G platforms integrated with BESS and an energy management system (EMS) is able to enhance output power quality to load, in the face of sequential events of dynamic loading and fluctuations in wind [11]. However, the proposed technique required a low-pass filter, which removed high frequencies in the voltage and frequency analysis, especially in the transient period. As such, it is expected that the efficiency is reduced due to power losses in the system. The main focus of this thesis is to develop an optimised EMS for transient stability enhancement, in the presence of simultaneous changes in dynamic loads and stochasticity in wind speed, for offshore O&G platforms integrated with WTG. There are five main contributions in this thesis. First, a power stability study has demonstrated a reduction in transient deviation of output power for systems without and with BESS respectively [51]. Second, a transient stability analysis is presented for variations in BESS sizing using a commercial software, ETAP. The simulation has also shown that the proposed system, which has incorporated 2 MW of BESS, improved transient stability and met the IEC standards on maximum voltage and frequency deviations [61]. Third, an optimisation of transient stability was shown for an increased capacity in BESS from 2 MW to a total of 4 MW BESS [62]. The techno-economic feasibility of the proposed system is carried out, which shows that the BESS has the lowest operational expendture (OPEX) as compared with GTG or WTG [61], [62]. Last but not the least, an optimised transient stability solution is demonstrated with dynamic loading and stochasticity in wind speed. An EMS embedded in the BESS is developed and the simulation results for transient stability are compared against the current state of art. The superiority of the proposed EMS was demonstrated with a smaller voltage and frequency deviation, which improved the output power quality with variations in load variation and wind intermittency. In addition, it is developed with considerations to lower the overall cost of the system and provide decarbonisation for long-term continuous operation.

description: Young stars typically form in star clusters, so the supernovae (SNe) they produce are clustered in space and time. This clustering of SNe may alter the momentum per SN deposited in the interstellar medium (ISM) by affecting the local ISM density, which in turn affects the cooling rate. We study the effect of multiple SNe using idealized 1D hydrodynamic simulations which explore a large parameter space of the number of SNe, and the background gas density and metallicity. The results are provided as a table and an analytic fitting formula. We find that for clusters with up to ~100 SNe the asymptotic momentum scales super-linearly with the number of SNe, resulting in a momentum per SN that can be an order of magnitude larger than for a single SN, with a maximum efficiency for clusters with 10-100 SNe. We argue that additional physical processes not included in our simulations -- self-gravity, breakout from a galactic disk, and galactic shear -- can slightly reduce the momentum enhancement from clustering, but the average momentum per SN still remains a factor of 4 larger than the isolated SN value when averaged over a realistic cluster mass function for a star-forming galaxy. We conclude with a discussion of the possible role of mixing between hot and cold gas, induced by multi-dimensional instabilities or preexisting density variations, as a limiting factor in the buildup of momentum by clustered SNe, and suggest future numerical experiments to explore these effects.

description: Neutrino-induced charged-current single $π^+$ production in the $Δ(1232)$ resonance region is of considerable interest to accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments. In this work, high statistics differential cross sections are reported for the semi-exclusive reaction $ν_μA \to μ^- π^+ +$ nucleon(s) on scintillator, carbon, water, iron, and lead targets recorded by MINERvA using a wide-band $ν_μ$ beam with $\left< E_ν\right> \approx 6$~GeV. Suppression of the cross section at low $Q^2$ and enhancement of low $T_π$ are observed in both light and heavy nuclear targets compared to phenomenological models used in current neutrino interaction generators. The cross-section ratios for iron and lead compared to CH across the kinematic variables probed are 0.8 and 0.5 respectively, a scaling which is also not predicted by current generators.

Effects of Motivation on Employee Performance in Public Enterprise: In the Case of Ethiopian Shipping and Logistics Services Enterprise
Creators: name: Teshome, Alemayehu
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: The study scrutinized the effect of motivation on employee Performance of selected Head office departments in Ethiopia shipping and logistic service enterprise. The study used descriptive statistics (frequencies, and percentages) to answer four research questions posed for the study the result obtained from the analysis showed that there existed relationship between motivation and the employee performance. Motivation is one of the most critical elements in the area of Human Resources Management. The study reveals that PDB bonus, extrinsic and instinct motivation given to employees in an enterprise has a significant effect on the employee performance. This is in line with equity theory which emphasizes that fairness in the remuneration package tends to produce higher performance from employees. Moreover, the study recommends that because motivation factors like attractive salary, training and good working environment to any employees is highly essential, it is important for Ethiopian shipping and logistic service enterprise to strength them all. Based upon the document analysis the enterprise is profitable, hence it is recommended that Ethiopian shipping and logistic service enterprise should adopt housing allowance in its various departments to increase employee performance. When employees are involved in making decisions that concern them, their performance is expected to significantly increase than when employees are not involved in making decisions concerning them this is absence in Ethiopian shipping and logistic service enterprise and I recommend the enterprise to reconsider it. Labor unions should be more active in defending the right and privilege of employees in Ethiopia shipping and logistic service enterprise since it is pressure group should take advantage of pluralism and demand to be involved in employee motivational rewards. And it should play its role being connectors between employees and their employer.
Primordial Black Holes as Dark Matter

description: The possibility that the dark matter comprises primordial black holes (PBHs) is considered, with particular emphasis on the currently allowed mass windows at $10^{16}$ - $10^{17}\,$g, $10^{20}$ - $10^{24}\,$g and $1$ - $10^{3}\,M_{\odot}$. The Planck mass relics of smaller evaporating PBHs are also considered. All relevant constraints (lensing, dynamical, large-scale structure and accretion) are reviewed and various effects necessary for a precise calculation of the PBH abundance (non-Gaussianity, non-sphericity, critical collapse and merging) are accounted for. It is difficult to put all the dark matter in PBHs if their mass function is monochromatic but this is still possible if the mass function is extended, as expected in many scenarios. A novel procedure for confronting observational constraints with an extended PBH mass spectrum is therefore introduced. This applies for arbitrary constraints and a wide range of PBH formation models, and allows us to identify which model-independent conclusions can be drawn from constraints over all mass ranges. We focus particularly on PBHs generated by inflation, pointing out which effects in the formation process influence the mapping from the inflationary power spectrum to the PBH mass function. We then apply our scheme to two specific inflationary models in which PBHs provide the dark matter. The possibility that the dark matter is in intermediate-mass PBHs of $1$ - $10^{3}\,M_{\odot}$ is of special interest in view of the recent detection of black-hole mergers by LIGO. The possibility of Planck relics is also intriguing but virtually untestable.

Charismatic Embodiment and Religious Authority - a Qadiriyya Sufi community in Northwest China

Year: 2015
Subjects: Sufism in China
charisma
embodiment

description: This thesis examines practices of charismatic cultivation at a Qadiriyya Sufi site located in Northwest China named Guo Gongbei. The thesis asks—what is charisma in this context? That is, what factors are perceived to be generative of charisma, a particular spiritual power? The effective transmission or cultivation of this ‘charisma’ to disciples is vital to the maintenance and continuity of the Sufi genealogy, and this is crucial for the Chinese Qadiriyya Sufi disciples in this study. The disciples of this network are celibate, and so—unlike Qadiriyya networks elsewhere in the world—the succession of leadership is based solely on religious merit, not blood inheritance. The thesis argues that, in this cultural context, charismatic power is rooted in the body, and cultivated primarily through a set of bodily disciplines that emphasise the development of the individual along a three stage path. This bodily charisma is then socially reinforced and strengthened by a number of other important practices —including narrative and naming, emulation, social proximity and distance during public ritual, and education and mobility. The secondary question of this thesis connects the process of charismatic embodiment to ongoing debates amongst the wider Muslim community in Northwest China. These debates continue to question the orthodoxy and integrity of Qadiriyya charismatic practice and in turn, their religious authority. The thesis thus also asks, why is charisma contentious, and what are the potential implications of this charismatic practice in the contemporary geo-political scene? The thesis is based on 12 months of fieldwork at Guo Gongbei in Linxia, Gansu Province, China from September 2011 to September 2012.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine determinants affecting the behavioral intention of customers toward using ethio telecom call center channels with an application of TAM. Thus, this study identifies and investigates the determinants which influence customers" decision to use ethio call center. The research model includes the basic concepts of the original Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), as well as the extended. The model is tested to determine its predictive power with respect to individual"s behavior when considering the use of ethio call center. A survey questionnaire was developed and employed to collect data from 280 ethio telecom customers who found at West Addis Ababa zone and North Addis Ababa zone. The research has found that customers will consider using ethio call center channels as long as it is perceived to be useful and perceived to be easy to use gives them enjoyment. Furthermore, these customers consider the influence of other important persons to use or not to use the system. Social influence was found to be significantly and positively correlated to behavioral intention. The result of the data analysis contributes to the body of knowledge in the area by demonstrating that how user perceptions about call center affected by considering perceived usefulness and ease of use as well as social influence which will bring enjoyment. Although the study has its limitations, the implications of the results allow providing practical recommendations to the telecom industry, and directions for further work.
Actors in Diplomacy: Peace Settlements with Non-state Armed Actors, the Khmer Rouge and the Taliban
Creators: name: Akbari, Farkhondeh
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2022

description: This research examines what characteristics allow a non-state armed actor to be considered an effective actor for the purpose of meaningful diplomatic engagement? The aim of this study is to understand how the identified factors can potentially contribute to a more successful outcome in peace settlement initiatives with non-state armed actors and how their absence can become a peril for peace. This research will address a gap in the international diplomatic studies literature concerned with the notion of actors in order to define, characterise and categorise the effectiveness of a diplomatic actors. The identified factors are autonomy, organisational coherence and representativeness as necessary characteristics for non-state armed actors to possess in order to engage in meaningful negotiations which could lead to a peace agreement and its successful implementation. This study has two sets of contributions, for academia and for practice. First, it contributes original knowledge to four study-areas in diplomatic studies literature by identifying the characters of actors in diplomacy; in peace settlements literature by identifying meaningful diplomatic engagement with non-state armed actors; to the study of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia from a diplomatic lens; and to the study of diplomatic engagement with the Afghan Taliban for a peace settlement. Second, the outcome of this research is a framework that can be used by diplomatic practitioners to identify effective diplomatic actors when they consider engagement with non-state armed actors. The research draws its empirical data from diplomatic engagement with the Khmer Rouge that led to 1991 Paris Peace Agreements in relation to the Cambodian conflict and the difficulties experienced in attempting to negotiate peace settlement with the Taliban in Afghanistan. In the detailed analysis of the two case studies, the value of the diplomatic actors' framework is demonstrated.

We propose a method of decomposing it into work and heat within the framework of quantum master equations. We find that the work and heat correspond respectively to the coherent and incoherent parts of the radiation. In the derivation of the method, it is crucial to investigate the dynamics of the system that receives the radiation from the cavity.

Phylogeny and systematics of the longhorn beetle genus Rhytiphora (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)
Creators: name: Ashman, Lauren
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: The classification and phylogenetic relationships of longhorn beetles, a diverse and ecologically important group, have been debated for decades, with neither morphological nor molecular data achieving a satisfactory resolution. Rhytiphora, the largest Australian genus of the subfamily Lamiinae, is no exception. The current concept of the genus encompasses around 200 species (from nearly 40 former genera), united by a putative apomorphy: setose 'sex patches' on the male abdomen, probably involved in dispersing pheromones. However, these sex patches are not unique to Rhytiphora. In this thesis, multiple nuclear loci were sequenced from museum specimens to produce the first molecular phylogeny of the Australasian Lamiinae, using fossil calibration data to estimate the branch lengths in real time. This phylogeny indicates that the tribal classification of the Australasian Lamiinae is largely incorrect, and the Australian genera form two clades: an older clade containing the Australian endemics and all the New Zealand taxa; and a younger clade with close ties to Asia, including the focal genus Rhytiphora. Many of the genera in this younger clade have male sex patches. The tribal classification of the sampled genera was revised, moving many Australian endemics to Lamiinae incertae sedis and reinstating the tribe Niphonini for Rhytiphora and five other Asian-Australian genera. Mitochondrial sequences were then used to reconstruct the phylogeny of Rhytiphora and examine patterns of morphological evolution and biome distributions. The Australian Rhytiphora species form two distinct clades. Nine morphological traits are correlated with these clades, including sex patches, body size and eye emargination. Clade 1 has mostly tropical species, while clade 2 has more mesic and arid zone species; both clades show evidence of multiple biome shifts between species groups. On the basis of these results, the morphological definition of the genus was revised, providing diagnostic features to distinguish Rhytiphora from related genera. Both molecular results and examination of type material were used to revise the collaris group, describe a new species, and construct an updated checklist of 162 Australian species (involving many new synonymies). These results shed light on an important part of Australia's insect fauna, improving the tribal classification of Lamiinae and providing insight into the previously unknown biogeographic history of the Australian longhorn beetles. They also improve our understanding of the phylogeny, morphology, biogeography and species-level taxonomy of the diverse genus Rhytiphora.

description: The study of quantum many-body physics in Liouvillian open quantum systems becomes increasingly important with the recent progress in experimental control on dissipative systems and their technological exploitation . A central question in open quantum systems concerns the fate of quantum correlations, and the possibility of controlling them by engineering the competition between the Hamiltonian dynamics and the coupling to a bath. Such a question is challenging from a theoretical point of view, as numerical methods faithfully accounting for quantum correlations are either relying on exact diagonalization, limiting drastically the sizes that can be treated; or on approximations on the range or strength of quantum correlations, associated to the choice of a specific Ansatz for the density matrix. In this work we propose a new method to treat open quantum-spin lattices, based on stochastic quantum trajectories for the solution of the open-system dynamics. Along each trajectory, the hierarchy of equations of motion for many-point spin-spin correlators is truncated to a given finite order, assuming that multivariate $k$-th order cumulants vanish for $k$ exceeding a cutoff $k_c$. This allows tracking the evolution of quantum spin-spin correlations up to order $k_c$ for all length scales. We validate this approach in the paradigmatic case of the phase transitions of the dissipative 2D XYZ lattice, subject to spontaneous decay. We convincingly assess the existence of steady-state phase transitions from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic, and back to paramagnetic, upon increasing one of the Hamiltonian couplings; as well as their classical Ising nature. Moreover, the approach allows us to show the presence of significant quantum correlations in the vicinity of the dissipative critical point, and to unveil the presence of spin squeezing, a tight lower bound to the quantum Fisher information.

description: Sensor simulation has emerged as a promising and powerful technique to find solutions to many real-world robotic tasks like localization and pose tracking.However, commonly used simulators have high hardware requirements and are therefore used mostly on high-end computers. In this paper, we present an approach to simulate range sensors directly on embedded hardware of mobile robots that use triangle meshes as environment map. This library called Rmagine allows a robot to simulate sensor data for arbitrary range sensors directly on board via raytracing. Since robots typically only have limited computational resources, the Rmagine aims at being flexible and lightweight, while scaling well even to large environment maps. It runs on several platforms like Laptops or embedded computing boards like Nvidia Jetson by putting an unified API over the specific proprietary libraries provided by the hardware manufacturers. This work is designed to support the future development of robotic applications depending on simulation of range data that could previously not be computed in reasonable time on mobile systems.

description: A pesquisa se propõe a ser um trabalho que está de acordo com o novo paradigma do desenvolvimento. A temática abordada envolve os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável – ODS e o desenvolvimento territorial. Esses objetivos globais são um chamado para a construção de um futuro inclusivo, resiliente e sustentável para todas as pessoas e todo o planeta. Assim, o principal objetivo desta pesquisa, consiste na percepção do estágio de implementação dos ODS nos municípios que pertencem ao Território da Cidadania do Jalapão – TCJ, na perspectiva territorial. Tal como conhecer os estágios de desenvolvimento territorial sustentável implementados no TCJ, caracterizar e quantificar as ações implementadas pelas prefeituras do território do Jalapão que contemplam os ODS, previstos na agenda 2030. A base metodológica ocupa-se de uma abordagem qualitativa e tem propósitos exploratórios e descritivos. Para tanto, os instrumentos a serem utilizados envolvem entrevistas semiestruturadas direcionadas aos gestores públicos, comunidade e profissionais que trabalharam no Núcleo de Extensão em Desenvolvimento Territorial – NEDET, do TCJ. As informações foram obtidas, através da aplicação do questionário Google Forms que foram
 aplicados nos públicos categorizados. Os resultados mostraram que a maioria dos municípios estão distantes de cumprir as metas da Agenda 2030, a importância de desenvolvimento de sistemas, tecnologias e ferramentas de monitoramento e avaliação, para a construção de indicadores mensuráveis e potentes no processo de gestão é uma poderosa ferramenta para administrar a prefeitura de maneira eficiente e também útil para identificar diversas falhas sistêmicas, conforme são expostas nas considerações finais deste trabalho.

description: We investigate whether early and late time attractors for non-conformal kinetic theories exist by computing the time-evolution of a large set of moments of the one-particle distribution function. For this purpose we make use of a previously obtained exact solution of the 0+1D boost-invariant massive Boltzmann equation in relaxation time approximation. We extend prior attractor studies of non-conformal systems by using a realistic mass- and temperature-dependent relaxation time and explicitly computing the effect of varying both the initial momentum-space anisotropy and initialization time on the time evolution of a large set of integral moments. Our findings are consistent with prior studies, which found that there is an attractor for the scaled longitudinal pressure, but not for the shear and bulk viscous corrections separately. We further present evidence that both late- and early-time attractors exist for all moments of the one-particle distribution function that contain greater than one power of the longitudinal momentum squared.

description: We study the morphologies of core collapse supernova remnants (CCSNRs) and find that about third of CCSNRs in our sample have two opposite `ears' protruding from their main shell. We assume that the ears are formed by jets, and argue that these properties are compatible with the expectation from the explosion jet feedback mechanism (JFM). Based on previous studies of ears in CCSNRs and the similarity of some ears to those found in planetary nebulae, we assume that the ears are inflated by jets that are launched during the explosion, or a short time after it. Under simple geometrical assumptions we find that the extra kinetic energy of the ears is in the range of 1 to 10 percents of the explosion energy. As not all of the kinetic energy of the jets ends in the ears, we estimate that the typical kinetic energy in the jets that inflated the ears, under our assumptions, is about 5 to 15 percents of the explosion energy. This study supports a serious consideration of jet-driven core-collapse supernova mechanisms.

Photonic Kondo model

description: Here we introduce and study a photonic analogue of the Kondo model. The model is defined as a far detuned regime of photonic scattering off a three-level emitter in a $Λ$-type configuration coupled to a one-dimensional transmission line with linear dispersion. We characterize this system by studying the dynamics of a local system (emitter) driven by a coherent field pulse as well as the first- and second-order correlation functions of the scattered light. Various polarization-dependent correlation effects including entanglement between the emitter and transmitted photons are quantified by the purity of the emitter's state. We also show that statistical properties of the scattered light are very sensitive to the polarization of the incoming coherent pulse.

description: Electron and hole spins confined in semiconductor quantum dots are of particular interest as candidates for the implementation of quantum bits in future quantum computers. In the first part of this thesis, the feasibility of an all-optical electron-spin tomography is demonstrated using picosecond laser pulses in the pump-probe technique. The second part focuses on hole-spin coherence. Hole-spin mode-locking under periodical laser excitation is demonstrated, which allows an investigation of hole-nuclear interactions and the measurement of the coherence time T2. This time is measured in dependence on the temperature and a dynamical decoupling protocol is presented prolonging the coherence time T2.

description: Falling cat problem is well-known where cats show their super aerial reorientation capability and can land safely. For their robotic counterparts, a similar falling quadruped robot problem, has not been fully addressed, although achieving safe landing as the cats has been increasingly investigated. Unlike imposing the burden on landing control, we approach to safe landing of falling quadruped robots by effective flight phase control. Different from existing work like swinging legs and attaching reaction wheels or simple tails, we propose to deploy a 3-DoF morphable inertial tail on a medium-size quadruped robot. In the flight phase, the tail with its maximum length can self-right the body orientation in 3D effectively; before touch-down, the tail length can be retracted to about 1/4 of its maximum for impressing the tail's side-effect on landing. To enable aerial reorientation for safe landing in the quadruped robots, we design a control architecture, which has been verified in a high-fidelity physics simulation environment with different initial conditions. Experimental results on a customized flight-phase test platform with comparable inertial properties are provided and show the tail's effectiveness on 3D body reorientation and its fast retractability before touch-down. An initial falling quadruped robot experiment is shown, where the robot Unitree A1 with the 3-DoF tail can land safely subject to non-negligible initial body angles.

description: Over a field of characteristic zero we prove two formality conditions. We prove that a dg Lie algebra is formal if and only if its universal enveloping algebra is formal. We also prove that a commutative dg algebra is formal as a dg associative algebra if and only if it is formal as a commutative dg algebra. We present some consequences of these theorems in rational homotopy theory.

description: Ein wichtiges Ziel von Mathematikunterricht (MU) sollte sein, dass er ein authentisches Erleben von Mathematik ermöglicht. Dabei soll die Authentizität auf drei Ebenen erreicht werden: in der Begegnung der Lernenden (und Lehrenden) mit Mathematik, in den verwendeten mathematischen Methoden/Arbeitsweisen und in den Inhalten/Kontexten (vgl. Lutz-Westphal, 2006). Forschendes Lernen sollte diesem Anspruch gerecht werden.

description: The directional control of molecular dissociation with the laser electric field waveform is a paradigm and was demonstrated for a variety of molecules. In most cases, the directional control occurs via a dissociative ionization pathway. The role of laser-induced coupling of electronic states in the dissociating ion versus selective ionization of oriented neutral molecules, however, could not be distinguished for even small heteronuclear molecules such as CO. Here, we introduce a technique, using elliptically polarized pump and linearly polarized two-color probe pulses that unambiguously distinguishes the roles of laser-induced state coupling and selective ionization. The measured photoelectron momentum distributions governed by the light polarizations allow us to coincidently identify the ionization and dissociation from the pump and probe pulses. Directional dissociation of CO+ as a function of the relative phase of the linearly polarized two-color pulse is observed for both parallel and orthogonally oriented molecules. We find that the laser-induced coupling of various electronic states of CO+ plays an important role for the observed directional bond breaking, which is verified by quantum calculations.
