description: The upper catchment of the Parramatta River is one of the most urbanized catchments in Sydney and Australia. The Upper Parramatta River Catchment Trust (UPRCT) was established in 1989 to address the impacts of urbanization on flooding in the 110 km2 catchment. An On-Site Detention (OSD) policy was adopted by the UPRCT in November 1991 and has been applied to all new developments in the catchment since that time. The Trust has also published a detailed OSD Handbook. The fourth edition is due to be released in early 2005. Further investigations have been undertaken of an OSD system that controls site runoff in both the 1.5 year and 100 year ARI storms. These assessments also provided guidance on the appropriate modification of OSD parameters when: less than 100% of lot runoff is captured in an OSD tank ie. partial bypassing of the OSD tank; a rainwater tank is installed on a lot with dedicated airspace or without dedicated airspace. These further investigations are described and the guidance provided in the fourth edition of the UPRCT Handbook is discussed. It is concluded that the fourth edition of the UPRCT OSD Handbook will improve the sustainability of urban drainage practices in the upper Parramatta River catchment by not only preventing increased flooding in major (100 year ARI) storms but will also better control flooding in frequent (1-2 year ARI) storms thereby limiting impacts on urban waterways that are prone to erosion in more frequent storms.

The research findings are being incorporated into guidance manuals aimed at both the design of highway runoff controls and, in the case of the WERF guidance documents, stormwater treatment approaches. The intent of these manuals is to provide a means for better applying research on the relationship between design and performance specifically emphasizing the importance of matching water quality goals to fundamental unit processes. To that end, the research discussed in this paper has integrated findings from a number of sources including work by the authors conducted as part of the International Stormwater Best Management Practices Database project as well as the above referenced projects. The paper pays particular attention to elucidating the current state of the practice relative to the availability of sources of performance information.

description: This study examined the event-based performance of continuous deflective separation (CDS) for removal of particle fractions transported in actual rainfall-runoff from a 1088-m2 source area paved urban watershed. Four independent rainfall-runoff events were examined and the entire volume of runoff and particulate matter from each event was treated by the continuous deflective separator at the full-scale treatment facility located on I-10 over City Park Lake in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA. Significant removal (> 90 %) for the sediment size particles (> 75-m) were achieved under event-mean surface overflow rate (< 0.15 cm/sec). Overall particle removal efficiencies for actual rainfall-runoff particle gradations were generally higher than 45% even at highest hydrologic loading condition (2.8 cm/sec). Separation performance of the continuous deflective separator is significantly influenced by influent particle gradation in rainfall-runoff. Such influent particle gradation is strongly influenced by intensity and temporal distribution of hydrologic loadings during an event.

ABSTRACT

CDIO initiative aims at creating engineers who can engineer through the use of
a product life cycle as an educational framework.  CDIO’s Standard 11 which
refers to the CDIO Skills Assessment focuses on the assessment of student
learning in personal, interpersonal, and product and system building skills, as
well as in disciplinary knowledge. This paper presents an assessment rubric for
a Multidisciplinary Engineering Design module in which the students are
required to explicitly reflect on when did they Conceive, Design, Implement and
Operate while working in a multidisciplinary team on a given project. To assess
the effectiveness of the reflective component of the assessment, two groups of
students were surveyed; the first group was assessed on the achievement of
their learning outcomes, quality of the project submitted and the interpersonal
skills while the second group was asked to reflect on the CDIO process
frequently during the semester. The initial results show that asking the
students to intentionally analyse their learning experience through the prism
of CDIO creates more awareness of the CDIO as a process which can lead to
internalisation of the process as a thinking and problem solving process that
can be used when learning other modules that are not design and build by
nature.

description: Recruitment and retention of medical practitioners to rural practice is an ongoing global issue. Rural longitudinal integrated clerkships (LIC) are an innovative solution to this problem, which are known to increase rural workforce. Crucially this association increases with time on rural placement. This study examines factors that promote retention in a Rural LIC. A two-phased, sequential design qualitative study in a cohort of students enrolled in a rural LIC at Griffith University, Queensland, Australia. Phase I consisted of an open-ended questionnaire and phase II follow-up focus groups from the same cohort. Data was transcribed and analysed using an iterative, six-step thematic analysis process to identify salient themes. Twenty-four students were invited to participate, of which eight respond in phase I and thirteen participated in phase II. Participants described retention being driven by connectivity within three broad themes: current practice, future practice (immediate internship and career intention), and social networks. Participant proposals to increase connectivity were also suggested including peer-led solutions and short rotations in metropolitan hospitals. Connectivity is key to retention on rural longitudinal integrated clerkships. Programs which enhance connectivity with current practice, future practice, and social networks will increase retention on rural medical programs.

description: PCDD/F and PCB concentrations were analysed in sediments, fish muscles, and livers collected from four lakes in Poland. In general, the fish and sediments had low levels of dioxins and PCBs. The total TEQ in the sediments was 0.12–0.47 pg WHO-TEQ g−1 dry matter (dm), the NDL-PCB content was at 0.05–0.36 ng g−1 dm. The muscles contained PCDD/F/DL-PCBs levels of 0.03–3.19 pg WHO-TEQ g−1 wet weight (ww) while the NDL-PCB content was 0.08–27.30 ng g−1 ww. The livers contained 0.73–8.74 pg WHO-TEQ g−1 ww and the NDL-PCB content was 1.52–88.84 ng g−1 ww. The potential health risk for fish consumers was assessed using the Tolerable Weekly Intake (2 pg WHO-TEQ/kg bw). The consumption of 200 g of fish containing an average PCDD/D/DL-PCB content results in an intake of 43–455% TWI and 14–150% TWI for children and adults, respectively, depending on fish species and sampling point.

title: Development of a Fuzzy Logic Model-Less Aircraft Controller

Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: The Modeling and Control for Agile Aircraft Development (MCAAD) group at NASA Langley Research Center(LaRC) is developing techniques for Real-Time Global Modeling (RTGM) and Robust Learning Control (RLC) for NASA’s Transformational Tools and Technologies Project. This project seeks to develop a systematic approach to reduce the iterative nature of aircraft design by introducing a model-less control law and enabling inflight aerodynamic modeling and controller design. The development of the flight control system without prior knowledge of the aircraft aerodynamic model makes use of TakagiSugeno-Kang fuzzy logic inference systems for pitch and roll controllers and are tested in various simulations and wind tunnel platforms. These fuzzy logic controllers are not based on a mathematical model but rather on a rule base of generic flight control laws generated from the designer’s knowledge of aircraft flight mechanics. The controller architecture uses two channels to provide absolute and incremental controller commands as needed. The absolute channel is designed to reject disturbances and decrease rise time, while the incremental channel provides tracking and reduced steady state error. To provide controllers with acceptable performance without the need for tuning, a general method for selecting input and output scaling gains for the fuzzy inference systems is proposed. A performance and robustness comparison of similarly configured Type-1 and Interval Type-2 fuzzy logic controllers is made. The fuzzy logic controllers were implemented on an aircraft model in the NASA Langley 12-Foot low speed tunnel mounted on a free-to-pitch and free-to-roll rig. The development of the controller architectures and wind tunnel results are presented.
"TEACHING TABLES II:" They Use It (and So Do You): Helping Students Critique Wikipedia and Other Online Sources
Creators: name: Swanson, Ryan
Publisher: name: Innovations in Teaching & Learning Conference Proceedings
Year: 2009
Subjects: critical thinking

description: This teaching table proposal is based on data that I have collected in my classes regarding Wikipedia use. I will present this information briefly and then detail a short research assignment that I have used to help students critique online sources. I would then look forward to hearing other professorsâ€™ opinions on the topic.

The assignment involves the following steps by students:
1. the selection of a familiar topic (to the student that is)
2. the comparison of Wikipediaâ€™s entry on the subject to another source
3. the analysis of the â€œdiscussionâ€ tab attached to the Wikipedia entry
a. students are ask to characterize the disagreements found on this page
4. the comparison, using the â€œhistoryâ€ tab, of the first entry on the topic to the most recent version
5. the creation of a student edit or addition to the Wikipedia entry

While these steps are very easy for todayâ€™s computer-savvy students to take, few have actually investigated how information is presented and edited on Wikipedia. Understanding the process contributes, I believe, to the development of a healthy skepticism regarding oneâ€™s sources.

description: Twelve trace elements were studied in four economically important bivalve molluscs (Mediterranean mussel, manila clam, striped venus clam, and truncated wedge clam) from the southern Marmara Sea for seasonal bioaccumulation and human health risk assessment. According to the findings, Fe and Zn were the most accumulative and element concentrations changed considerably (P < 0.05) between seasons and species. Daily, weekly, monthly intake and target hazard quotients of the trace elements were estimated and compared with maximum limits. The results revealed that consuming these bivalve molluscs from the southern Marmara Sea could be considered safe for human consumption. Nevertheless, further monitoring is needed in order to better follow the development in time of elemental pollution due to increasing environmental pressure on the Marmara Sea basin, together with research on other different bioaccumulative organisms.

description: This chapter attempts an immanent intervention into the theoretical discourse within the field of peace education. There is a concern that the field is both under-defined and under-theorized. This fundamental uncertainty is related to trends in the broader intellectual world grouped under the name of postmodernity. This chapter thus presents an edifying philosophy of education to offer a new idealization of the field, highlighting certain components of peace education theory as the most promising for its coherence and continued relevance. It proposes a utopian turn as an opening to wider social theory, the world, and the future.

description: Multi-element analysis combined with chemometric method has been used to investigate the distinguish between Sengcu rice and other types of rice origins in Vietnam. In Sengcu rice, As, Ba Sr, Pb, Ca, Se were confirmed as the key elements for geographical traceability among three fields of Lao Cai, whereas Al, Ca, Fe, Mg, Ag, As were major factors to distinguish between Sengcu and other types of rice. Based on linear discriminant analysis and partial least squares-discriminant analysis model, overall correct identification rates distinguishing between Sengcu and other types of rice were approximately 100% in both training and validation test. Moreover, to distinguish geographical origin of Sengcu rice samples, these rates vary from 80% to 99%. These results suggest the presence of food adulteration illustrated in the latter.

description: Cost efficiency and productivity as well as drivers comfort and usability are significant innovation drivers for agricultural machinery. The proposed electronic tow bar system for tillage processes consists of two vehicles, coupled by wireless data connection. An unmanned slave tractor follows a master tractor with a position dependent lateral and longitudinal offset. Operating two tractors with one driver only, increases productivity and improves the capacity load due to higher flexibility in fleet management. In return, the usability and safety of the tow bar becomes a major concern, which is addressed by an elaborate safety concept enabled by sensor based obstacle detection and mapping. Web-based geo-information, are used to support proactive path planning.This paper presents a solution to achieve both, safety and usability, for a complex platoon system. The interaction of the operator with the local and global obstacle map is designed to meet the requirements of both target functions.

description: We report on the first follow-up observations of galactic X-ray binary candidates identified in the ongoing SRG/eRosita all-sky survey, with NuSTAR (~60ks) and XMM-Newton (26ks and 27ks). This analysis is part of a project in the eROSTEP (eROsita view of STellar EndPoints) network, with a focus on search and identification of galactic X-ray binaries. Preliminary analysis of the broadband X-ray spectrum of eRASSU J084850 observed with NuSTAR shows that the continuum can be well described either with a comptonization spectrum, or emission from an accretion disk (diskbb) along with a reflection component. There is no significant evidence of a cyclotron resonant scattering feature and no pulsations are present in the lightcurve. The most likely optical counterpart of the source is identified as a Be star, UCAC2 13726137, ~3'' away, suggesting that the compact object is most likely a neutron star. Analysis of XMM data of eRASSU J061331 and eRASSU J161201 allowed better localization of both X-ray sources and their optical counterparts. In both cases, low counting statistics precluded detection of significant pulsations in the lightcurves from XMM. The XMM spectra are consistent with thermal emission from collisionally ionised plasma and there is no strong evidence for the presence of a power-law type continuum component. Moreover, their X-ray and optical behaviour appear more similar to chromospheric active stars than X-ray binaries. Further confirmation of this is pending.

description: For a long period the area of Electric Power engineering has seen a declining
number of applicants to relevant studies at DTU. It was decided to design an
intensive 3-week course whish could motivate students by letting the business
players introduce the challenges in the electric energy area.

The course named:  Electric Power Technology - economy, politics and technology
got a double purpose: introduction to problems based project design as well as
presentation of the technical area.

The course has become rather popular. Nearly all Danish students who continue
studies in the area of electric energy have passed the course.

description: A course was devised for teaching analysis and chromatography at the advanced
level. Master students and ph.d. students may benefit from the learning
objectives of the course. Analytical chemistry is characterised by hyphenating
several types of apparatus that are designed to perform specialised unit
operations. The purpose is automation of chemical analysis and chromatography
that allows reliable determination of chemical species. Results of analytical
chemistry form the basis of decision making that requires experience in
assessment of results in terms of quality assurance. In order to obtain
reliable analytical results students should combine theory of chemical
reactions, experience in laboratory work and evaluation of data by means of
statistics following the concepts of CDIO. The syllabus includes theory,
exercise, reports and the students are examined orally. The course was attended
by 30-50 students where more than 50 % found the learning objectives fullfilled
but they also found the workload to be relatively high.

description: Abstract: The BeXRB EXO 2030+375 went through its third recorded giant outburst from June 2021 to early 2022. We focus our study on the timing aspect of the outburst based on NICER monitoring aided by two NuSTAR observations. NICER monitoring around every second day allowed us to closely track the pulse profile evolution over the course of the outburst. The profiles show a clear dependency on luminosity with a stark transition at a luminosity of ∼ 3 × 10^37 erg/s, indicating a change in accretion geometry. Using relativistic ray tracing we demonstrate how a specific column geometry can give rise to the observed pulse profiles.

description: Breakthrough products and services (ex: iPhone, YouTube, Facebook) show us that
they must do more than just “do the job”. They must “do the job” in
an overwhelming, industry transforming way to overtake competitors. What can we
learn from these successes and how could this change the way we teach our
students? How can students be prepared to take an active part in the creation
of the next breakthrough products and services in industry?

In this paper, we describe an initiative to create a transdisciplinary project
learning environment by growing on many interdisciplinary experiences and
building on previous multidisciplinary successes.

description: The Correlation Dimension (CD) of an attractor provides information on the number
of variables present in its non-linear deterministic variability. In this study we
demonstrate a physical connection between the CD and the mathematical modeling of
risk of arsenic contamination in groundwater using Ordinary Logistic Regression
(OLR). Our database comprised the nation-wide arsenic survey completed in 1999 by
the British Geological Survey (BGS) in collaboration with the Department of Public
Health Engineering (DPHE) in Bangladesh, wherein, Hossain and Sivakumar (2005)
reported CD values ranging anywhere from 8 to 11 for shallow aquifers (depth < 150
m) depending on the region and geology. Using 12 physically meaningful parameters
from the universal set of variables that define the geo-chemical regime of aquifers
and hence arsenic concentration, we demonstrate that CD is a reliable proxy for the
minimum number of parameters required in the OLR model to accurately predict
arsenic contamination at non-sampled wells. To the best of our knowledge, this work
represents the very first attempt to inject non-linear deterministic paradigms in
the linear stochastic modeling of the risk of arsenic contamination in shallow
aquifers of Bangladesh.

description: In this study, the performance of two popular conceptual models, a classic artificial intelligence (AI) model, and a deep learning model is compared using simple and differential split-sample tests (SSST and DSST). Finally, the two conceptual models and the classic AI model are combined employing a model ensemble technique. The SSST and DSST schemes confirmed the ability of both types of models (conceptual and AI) to capture the hydrological response to rainfall events, although the conceptual models showed a better performance in the DSST scheme. The ensemble technique enhanced the modelling performance up to 22% and 35% in the calibration and verification steps. This study highlights the importance of applying DSST using existing data to build further confidence in model projections, and suggests that the use of model ensemble techniques combining conceptual and AI models can enhance the performance of rainfall-runoff modelling in the context of climate change.
