description: The purpose of our research is to address the development of the concept of rock formation in the reasoning of children, by collecting the pupils’ ideas about a sedimentary rock bearing fossil molluscs. Here we present the data collected for 40 seven-year-old children, through individual, semi-structured interviews. Children's responses were categorised and interpreted. The results of this investigation indicate a transition from the diversified explanations we previously collected for preschoolers, including anthropomorphic or other fantastic elements, to the explanations based on human action or natural processes, given by seven-year-old children. Some of the scenarios envisaged by the pupils reveal the idea that the natural environment has changed in time.

description: Social interactions, decision-making, perceptions, and learning are all influenced by affect. Frustration, anxiety, and fear in particular can draw cognitive resources away from successful task completion, causing the learner to focus on the source of the emotion instead. Serious games offer an ideal environment to investigate how feedback influences student affect and learning outcomes, particularly when feedback is delivered via computer system detection. This dissertation discusses the results of an experiment run in September 2015 to investigate which motivational feedback condition yields the most significant correlation to positive learning gains when a computer system intelligently generates and delivers feedback based on the detection of frustration while participants played the serious video game, vMedic, a combat casualty care simulation which includes triage tasks.  Of the three motivational feedback conditions examined (self-efficacy, social-identity, and control-value), the self-efficacy motivational feedback interventions yielded positive, statistically significant learning gains when compared to the social identity and control-value feedback conditions, as well as the non-motivational feedback control condition, and the no feedback control condition.

description: We present a new QCD analysis of parton distribution functions (PDFs) at the next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). In the present paper, the role of special types of experimental measurements for extracting PDFs is investigated and simultaneously the values of the strong coupling constant are determined. Essential elements of this QCD analysis are: the HERA combined data as a base, heavy quark cross section measurement together with Tevatron data on jet production and H1 and ZEUS jet cross sections as "non-LHC" data, and especially the "LHC" data set for top-quark and jet cross sections. These different data sets have allowed detailed information at low $x$, worth information on the nucleon's flavor and have played an important role for some PDFs at large-$x$ and strong coupling constant. Since the large-$x$ gluon PDF benefits from an accurate determination of quark PDFs, we have enough motivation to focus on the top-quark production and jet cross section measurements from LHC to find the impact of these data on the gluon PDF and strong coupling constant. These experimental data have an impact on the relative uncertainties of PDF. The gluon PDF at large-$x$ and the values of $α_s(M_Z^2)$ are affected significantly. Although, the main motivation of this paper is to focus on gluon PDF and also its uncertainty at large-$x$, but notice to heavy PDFs behavior in this region is also very important. We study the intrinsic charm (IC) using BHPS model with together our extracted extrinsic charm PDF at large $x$ which can be very worth for future experiment at the LHC.

description: Massive Open Online Courses provides massive scale education supporting the transfer of knowledge and the potential of collaborative and social learning. In addition, can be a cost and resource effective means to complement the traditional methods of professional development of teachers. Teacher Professional Development has become a major policy priority within education systems worldwide. Keeping teachers professionally up-to-date and providing them professional development opportunities on continuing basis is a big challenge. Learning Analytics aims of understanding and optimizing learning through data provided from learner’s action in a digital environment. Teaching strategies that take into account students' previous perceptions are fundamental for science education. Students of all levels daily deal with concepts like light and color and appear alternative ideas about these concepts. This paper discusses the challenges of Teacher Professional Development, reflects upon promises of using Massive Open Online Courses for Teacher Professional Development; details initiatives and experiences of using Massive Open Online Courses for Teacher Professional Development, and suggests actions for promoting the use of Massive Open Online Courses for Teacher Professional Development. Finally, proposes the integration of digital learning environments into a MOOC that offers techniques for the detection of future teachers’ ideas about the concepts of light and color.

description: Our research proposes to show how we can quantify the stability of teaching, by refining a classical model of Activity Theory. Videotaped lessons of a model on energy chain, from two French 5th grade classes with the same teacher, were analysed in order to assess the percentage of stability as to: (i) realised subtasks and duration (ii) communicated themes and (iii)used semiotic resources. Using a self-designed scale, we show that these three-layered practices of the teacher ranged from stable to strongly stable.

description: We investigate the quasinormal modes of a massless scalar field in a Schwarzschild black hole, which is deformed due to noncommutative corrections. We introduce the deformed Schwarzschild black hole solution, which depends on the noncommutative parameter $Θ$. We then extract the master equation as a Schrödinger-like equation, giving the explicit expression of the effective potential which is modified due to the noncommutative corrections. After that, we solve the master equation numerically. The significance of these results is twofold. Firstly, our results can be related to the detection of gravitational waves by the near future gravitational wave detectors, such as LISA, which will have a significantly increased accuracy. In particular, these observed gravitational waves produced by binary strong gravitational systems have oscillating modes which can provide valuable information. Secondly, our results can serve as an additional tool to test the predictions of GR, as well as to examine the possible detection of this kind of gravitational corrections.

description: Natural human movements are stereotyped. They minimise cost functions that include energy, a natural candidate from mechanical and physiological points of view. In time-changing environments, however, motor strategies are modified since energy is no longer conserved. Adiabatic invariants are relevant observables in such cases, although they have not been investigated in human motor control so far. We fill this gap and show that the theory of adiabatic invariants explains how humans move when gravity varies.

description: Capillary number, understood as the ratio of viscous force to capillary force, is one of the most important parameters in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). It continues to attract the interest of scientists and engineers, because the nature and quantification of macroscopic capillary forces remain controversial. At least 41 different capillary numbers have been collected here from the literature. The ratio of viscous and capillary force enters crucially into capillary desaturation experiments. Although the ratio is length scale dependent, not all definitions of capillary number depend on length scale, indicating potential inconsistencies between various applications and publications. Recently, new numbers have appeared and the subject continues to be actively discussed. Therefore, a short review seems appropriate and pertinent.

description: Enormous amount of latent heat generates/absorbs at the formation/dissociation process of gas hydrates and controlls their thermal condition themselves. In this paper we investigated the effect of ethane concentration on dissociation heat of mixed-gas (methane and ethane) hydrate. It has been reported by researchers that a structure II gas hydrate appears in appropriate gas composition of methane and ethane. We confirmed by using Raman spectroscopy that our samples had the following three patterns: structure I only, structure II only and mixture of structures I and II. Dissociation heats of the mixed-gas hydrates were within the range between those of pure methane and ethane hydrates and increased with ethane concentration. In most cases two peaks of heat flow appeared and the dissociation process was divided into two parts. This can be understood in the following explanation that (1) the sample contained both crystal structures, and/or (2) ethane-rich gas hydrate formed simultaneously from dissociated gas and showed the second peak of heat flow.

Subjects: subject: Representation Theory (math.RT)

description: Recently the authors initiated an $\imath$Hall algebra approach to (universal) $\imath$quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs. In this paper we construct and study BGP type reflection functors which lead to isomorphisms of the $\imath$Hall algebras associated to acyclic $\imath$quivers. For Dynkin quivers, these symmetries on $\imath$Hall algebras induce automorphisms of universal $\imath$quantum groups, which are shown to satisfy the braid group relations associated to the restricted Weyl group of a symmetric pair; conjecturally these continue to hold for acyclic quivers/Kac-Moody setting. This leads to a conceptual construction of $q$-root vectors and PBW bases for (universal) quasi-split $\imath$quantum groups of ADE type.

description: Flagellated microswimmers are ubiquitous in natural habitats. Understanding the hydrodynamic behavior of these cells is of paramount interest, owing to their applications in bio-medical engineering and disease spreading. Since the last two decades, computational efforts have been continuously improved to accurately capture the complex hydrodynamic behavior of these model systems. However, modeling the dynamics of such swimmers with fine details is computationally expensive due to the large number of unknowns and the small time-steps required to solve the equations. In this work we propose a method to map fully resolved flagellated microswimmers to coarse, active slip driven swimmers which can be simulated at a reduced computational cost. Using the new method, the slip driven swimmers move with the same velocity, to machine precision, as the flagellated swimmers and generate a similar flow field with a controlled accuracy. The method is validated for swimming patterns near a no-slip boundary, interactions between swimmers and scattering with large obstacles.

description: Concerns for the resilience of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)s in critical infrastructure are growing. CPS integrate sensing, computation, control, and networking into physical objects and mission-critical services, connecting traditional infrastructure to internet technologies. While this integration increases service efficiency, it has to face the possibility of new threats posed by the new functionalities. This leads to cyber-threats, such as denial-of-service, modification of data, information leakage, spreading of malware, and many others. Cyber-resilience refers to the ability of a CPS to prepare, absorb, recover, and adapt to the adverse effects associated with cyber-threats, e.g., physical degradation of the CPS performance resulting from a cyber-attack. Cyber-resilience aims at ensuring CPS survival by keeping the core functionalities of the CPS in case of extreme events. The literature on cyber-resilience is rapidly increasing, leading to a broad variety of research works addressing this new topic. In this article, we create a systematization of knowledge about existing scientific efforts of making CPSs cyber-resilient. We systematically survey recent literature addressing cyber-resilience with a focus on techniques that may be used on CPSs. We first provide preliminaries and background on CPSs and threats, and subsequently survey state-of-the-art approaches that have been proposed by recent research work applicable to CPSs. In particular, we aim at differentiating research work from traditional risk management approaches based on the general acceptance that it is unfeasible to prevent and mitigate all possible risks threatening a CPS. We also discuss questions and research challenges, with a focus on the practical aspects of cyber-resilience, such as the use of metrics and evaluation methods as well as testing and validation environments.

description: Given a TQFT in dimension d+1, and an infinite cyclic covering of a closed (d+1)-dimensional manifold M, we define an invariant taking values in a strong shift equivalence class of matrices. The notion of strong shift equivalence originated in R. Williams' work in symbolic dynamics. The Turaev-Viro module associated to a TQFT and an infinite cyclic covering is then given by the Jordan form of this matrix away from zero. This invariant is also defined if the boundary of M has a circle factor and the infinite cyclic cover of the boundary is standard. We define a variant of a TQFT associated to a finite group G which has been studied by Quinn. In this way, we recover a link invariant due to D. Silver and S. Williams. We also obtain a variation on the Silver-Williams invariant, by using the TQFT associated to G in its unmodified form.

description: We perform a detailed analysis of black hole solutions in supergravity models. After a general introduction on black holes in general relativity and supersymmetric theories, we provide a detailed description of ungauged extended supergravities and their dualities. Therefore, we analyze the general form of black hole configurations for these models, their near-horizon behavior and characteristic of the solution. An explicit construction of a black hole solution with its physical implications is given for the STU-model. The second part of this review is dedicated to gauged supergravity theories. We describe a step-by-step gauging procedure involving the embedding tensor formalism, to be used to obtain a gauged model starting from an ungauged one. Finally, we analyze general black hole solutions in gauged models, providing an explicit example for the $\,\mathcal{N}=2$, $\,D=4$ case. A brief review on special geometry is also provided, with explicit results and relations for supersymmetric black hole solutions.

description: We present a dataset of several fault types in control surfaces of a fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for use in Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) and Anomaly Detection (AD) research. Currently, the dataset includes processed data for 47 autonomous flights with 23 sudden full engine failure scenarios and 24 scenarios for seven other types of sudden control surface (actuator) faults, with a total of 66 minutes of flight in normal conditions and 13 minutes of post-fault flight time. It additionally includes many hours of raw data of fully-autonomous, autopilot-assisted and manual flights with tens of fault scenarios. The ground truth of the time and type of faults is provided in each scenario to enable evaluation of the methods using the dataset. We have also provided the helper tools in several programming languages to load and work with the data and to help the evaluation of a detection method using the dataset. A set of metrics is proposed to help to compare different methods using the dataset. Most of the current fault detection methods are evaluated in simulation and as far as we know, this dataset is the only one providing the real flight data with faults in such capacity. We hope it will help advance the state-of-the-art in Anomaly Detection or FDI research for Autonomous Aerial Vehicles and mobile robots to enhance the safety of autonomous and remote flight operations further. The dataset and the provided tools can be accessed from https://doi.org/10.1184/R1/12707963.

description: Frontier issues are an inevitable part of Australian historiography, and have often been dealt with in either an indifferent or a moralistic manner. Specifically, it has been widely argued that records of officially condoned frontier violence have been destroyed or lost. This thesis, which deals with the Native Police in Queensland from 1860 to 1905, attempts to move the discussion on to firmer ground. It is driven by a passionate commitment to the rights of Indigenous Australians, and shows that detailed archival research does not support those who deny the violence that accompanied the colonisation of Australia. Apologists for dispossession will find no comfort in the archival records. The Native Police force was widely reputed to have been the most violent police force on the Australian frontier. Long-standing and widely cited references about the lack of Native Police records have been tied into arguments about the kind of force it was. This dissertation is the first significant archival work on the Native Police force after Separation. The force was part of broader colonial settler-society, and I analyse the Native Police in that context. The problem with existing literature is that the archives have not been adequately consulted, and historians have neglected vital contextual aspects of the force in Queensland. The sociology of policing has not been integrated with a model of military force in the Queensland case, even though in colonial Queensland the same men formed the dual function of soldiers and police. The aim of the thesis is to provide an integrated model documented by detailed research in the archives. The research hypothesis is that the Native Police played a central role in the dispossession and punitive treatment of Indigenous people. Chapter 1 sets up the research problem in the context of the existing scholarship on native policing. Chapter 2 looks at the officers. Chapter 3 is concerned with the Aboriginal troopers of the force, and Chapter 4 examines the operations of the Native Police in Queensland. The thesis is very detailed, as the topic requires, but it still only opens up essential avenues of research. In particular, more work needs to be done on the experiences of the troopers and on the records of frontier violence in general.

description: Vocational teaching in France is structured around two components: a general component and a vocational component. However, the link between these two components is often difficult for students to make. In the context of the implementation of a new system, namely the co-intervention between a teacher of vocational component and a teacher of general component, we propose to set up a research-action system. Therefore, we propose to focus on the representation that a group of teachers have of this new organization. Through the analysis of speeches, we’ve determined constraints, resources and goals they identify regarding this new organization.

GAS HYDRATES IN THREE INDIAN OCEAN REGIONS, A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF OCCURRENCE AND SUBSURFACE HYDROLOGY

description: To establish the structural and lithological controls on gas hydrate distribution and to assess the potential energy resource and environmental hazards in the Indian Ocean, non-pressurized and pressurized cores were recovered from the Krishna-Godavari (K-G) and Mahanadi Basins offshore east India, and from an Andaman Sea site. The pore fluids were analyzed for: salinity, Cl-, sulfate, sulfide, carbonate alkalinity, Ca2+, Mg2+, Sr2+, K+, Na+, Ba2+, and Li+ concentrations, δ13C-DIC, δ18O, D/H, and 87Sr/86Sr ratios; together with infra-red imaging they provided important constraints on the presence and distribution of gas hydrates, thus on the subsurface hydrology. Evidence for methane hydrate was obtained at each of the sites. Only in the K-G Basin, between the sulfate-methane transition zone (SMT) depth and ~80 mbsf, higher than seawater chloride concentrations are observed; below this zone to the depth of the base of the gas hydrate zone (BGHSZ), chloride concentrations and salinity are lower than seawater value. In the Andaman Sea and Mahanadi Basin, only lower than seawater chloride concentrations are observed, and the shallowest gas hydrates occur at 100-200 m below the sulfate-methane transition zone (SMT) and extend to the depth of the BGHSZ. In the K-G Basin, the highest methane hydrate concentrations are associated with fracture zones in clay-rich sediments and/or in some coarser grained horizons. In the Andaman Sea, however, they are primarily associated with volcanic ash horizons. Assuming dilution by water released from dissociated methane hydrate, chloride and salinity anomalies suggest pore volume occupancies on the order of <1% to a maximum of ~61% at two sites (10, 21) in the K-G Basin and <1% to a maximum of ~76% at the Andaman Sea site. Overall, the percent pore volume occupancies based on pressure core methane concentrations and the chloride concentrations in conventional cores are similar. Variations in sulfate gradients were observed with the steepest gradient having the SMT at 8 mbsf in the K-G Basin and the deepest SMT at ~25 mbsf at the Andaman Sea site. The extreme negative δ13C values of the dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), ranging from -38‰ to -47‰ at the SMT at some of the sites, indicate that anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is an important reaction responsible for sulfate reduction at these sites. At several sites in the K-G Basin, however, the δ13C-DIC values indicate that organic matter oxidation is the dominant reaction.
Localized waves in plasmas at varying magnetic field

description: By considering the continuity, Navier-Stoks and Poisson's equations in a non-relativistic frame work for plasmas, we study the behavior of small amplitude ion acoustic solitary waves in plasmas under the influence of a varying magnetic field. The result is a nonlinear wave equation which complies with the KdV-Burgers (KdVB) equation, surprisingly in the absence of thermal pressure or any dissipative effects. We show that the complete set of equations, by considering the varying magnetic field, create solitary waves which radiate energy during their traveling in the medium. An interesting result is the existence of small amplitude localized shock profiles beside the solitary waves. Properties of this solitaire solution is studied by considering different values for the environmental characters.

description: Every finite subunital of any generalized hermitian unital is itself a hermitian unital; the embedding is given by an embedding of quadratic field extensions. In particular, a generalized hermitian unital with a finite subunital is a hermitian one (i.e., it originates from a separable field extension).

description: Topological spin textures such as magnetic skyrmions hold considerable promise as robust, nanometre-scale, mobile bits for sustainable computing. A longstanding roadblock to unleashing their potential is the absence of a device enabling deterministic electrical readout of individual spin textures. Here we present the wafer-scale realization of a nanoscale chiral magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) hosting a single, ambient skyrmion. Using a suite of electrical and multi-modal imaging techniques, we show that the MTJ nucleates skyrmions of fixed polarity, whose large readout signal - 20-70% relative to uniform states - corresponds directly to skyrmion size. Further, the MTJ exploits complementary mechanisms to stabilize distinctly sized skyrmions at zero field, thereby realizing three nonvolatile electrical states. Crucially, it can write and delete skyrmions using current densities 1,000 times lower than state-of-the-art. These results provide a platform to incorporate readout and manipulation of skyrmionic bits across myriad device architectures, and a springboard to harness chiral spin textures for multi-bit memory and unconventional computing.

An alternative proof was given by B.Bakalov and A.Kirillov Jr. We present some applications to TQFTs. This is also related to recent work on the Grothendieck-Teichmuller groupoid by P.Lochak, A.Hatcher and L.Schneps.

Subjects: Educational robotics, teachers training, computational thinking, self-efficacy

description: This paper studies preservice early years teachers’ computational thinking and self-efficacy beliefs as they engaged in an educational robotics learning environment. Computational thinking is perceived as the thought processes involved in formulating problems and their solutions so that the solutions can be represented as algorithms. Computational thinking is considered as a fundamental set of cognitive skills suggested for everyone, not only for computer scientists. The involvement of teachers with the educational robotics activities has helped them to improve their computational thinking skills and their self-efficacy about robotics and coding knowledge.
