description: Die Arbeit widmet sich am Beispiel der Seveso-II-Richtlinie der Frage, wie die Umsetzung rechtlicher Anforderungen in der kommunalen Praxis erfolgt und welche Einflussfaktoren dabei auf das Handeln der Planungsverwaltung wirken. Die Seveso-II-Richtlinie formuliert seit 1996 in Artikel 12 Anforderungen an die räumliche Planung, die im Kern auf eine Trennung von Störfallbetrieben und schutzwürdigen Nutzungen abzielen. Die Umsetzung in deutsches Recht erfolgte über den Trennungsgrundsatz in § 50 des Bundesimmissionsschutzgesetzes. Hinsichtlich der konkreten Anforderungen an die Bauleitplanung zeigen sich jedoch immer noch zahlreiche Auslegungsspielräume, die es in der Planungspraxis zu interpretieren gilt. Ziel der Dissertation ist es zu untersuchen, wie diese rechtlichen Anforderungen in der Bauleitplanung konkret umgesetzt werden und wie die bestehenden Auslegungsspielräume in der praktischen Anwendung interpretiert werden. Dabei werden u.a. anhand einer explorativen Untersuchung von sechs Fallstudien die zentralen Einflussfaktoren bei der Anwendung der Seveso-II-Richtlinie bzw. des Trennungsgrundsatzes in der Bauleitplanung identifiziert und ihre Bedeutung aufgezeigt. Aufbauend auf der Analyse der Einflussfaktoren werden Empfehlungen für die weitere Umsetzung des planerischen Störfallschutzes in der Bauleitplanung formuliert.

description: We study higher derivative corrections to black brane thermodynamics and their implications for the weak gravity conjecture for $p$-form gauge fields. In particular we show that higher derivative corrections decrease tension-to-charge ratios of extremal black branes as implied by the weak gravity conjecture, if four-derivative couplings follow scattering positivity bounds. We also demonstrate that entropy corrections in the micro canonical ensemble are positive under the same assumptions. This extends earlier works in the Einstein-Maxwell theory to $p$-form gauge fields in general spacetime dimensions.

description: A 1-truncated compact Lie group is any extension of a finite group by a torus. In this note we compute the homotopy types of $Map_*(BG,BH)$, $Map(BG,BH)$, and $Map(EG, B_GH)^G$ for compact Lie groups $G$ and $H$ with $H$ 1-truncated, showing that they are computed entirely in terms of spaces of homomorphisms from $G$ to $H$. These results generalize the well-known case when $H$ is finite, and the case of $H$ compact abelian due to Lashof, May, and Segal.

description: Three-dimensional (3D) metals/semimetals under magnetic field have an instability toward a density wave (DW) ordering which breaks a translational symmetry along the field direction. Effective boson models for the DW phases take forms of XY models with/without Potts terms. Longitudinal conductivity along the field direction is calculated in the DW phases with inclusion of effects of low-energy charge fluctuation (phason) and disorder. A single-particle imaginary-time Green function is identified with a partition function of 3D XY models in the presence of pairs of magnetic monopoles. In terms of the celebrated electromagnetic duality, electronic spectral function is calculated near the DW phase transition. The result shows that the single-particle spectral function acquires an additional low-energy feature due to the strong phason fluctuation. Relevance to an in-plane conductance due to surface chiral Fermi arc states are also discussed.

description: We report the properties of more than 600 bursts (including cluster-bursts) detected from the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20201124A with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) during an extremely active episode on UTC September 25-28, 2021, in a series of four papers. The observations were carried out in the band of 1.0 - 1.5 GHz by using the center beam of the L-band 19-beam receiver. We monitored the source in sixteen 1-hour sessions and one 3-hour session spanning 23 days. All the bursts were detected during the first four days. In this first paper of the series, we perform a detailed morphological study of 624 bursts using the 2-dimensional frequency-time ``waterfall'' plots, with a burst (or cluster-burst) defined as an emission episode during which the adjacent emission peaks have a separation shorter than 400 ms. The duration of a burst is therefore always longer than 1 ms, with the longest up to more than 120 ms. The emission spectra of the sub-bursts are typically narrow within the observing band with a characteristic width of $\sim$277 MHz. The center frequency distribution has a dominant peak at about 1091.9 MHz and a secondary weak peak around 1327.9 MHz. Most bursts show a frequency-downward-drifting pattern. Based on the drifting patterns, we classify the bursts into five main categories: downward drifting (263) bursts, upward drifting (3) bursts, complex (203), no drifting (35) bursts, and no evidence for drifting (121) bursts. Subtypes are introduced based on the emission frequency range in the band (low, middle, high and wide) as well as the number of components in one burst (1, 2, or multiple). We measured a varying scintillation bandwidth from about 0.5 MHz at 1.0 GHz to 1.4 MHz at 1.5 GHz with a spectral index of 3.0.

Characterization of the novel type I Interferon-- Ifn-epsilon
Creators: name: Fung, Ka Yee
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Interferon-epsilon (Ifn-ε) is a recently identified type I IFN whose function is unknown. In contrast to other type I IFNs, Ifn-ε is expressed constitutively in reproductive organs, whereas other type I IFNs are not constitutively expressed. However, Ifn-ε is not induced by synthetic TLR ligands, virus and is not transcriptionally activated by interferon regulatory factors (IRFs). Furthermore, Ifn-ε gene expression is changed during estrous cycle and is suppressed during implantation of normal and psuedopregnancy, suggesting that Ifn-ε is regulated by ovarian hormones. Furthermore, the promoter of Ifn-ε is distinct from other type I IFNs due to the lack of viral response elements. Besides, the promoter of Ifn-ε possesses a conserved Ets factor binding site across different species. Experimental validation identified that Elf3, one of the epithelial specific Ets family members, is crucial for Ifn-ε expression in the uterus. Therefore, Ifn-ε is unique amongst Type I IFNs and is hypothesized to play a role in reproductive health. In order to examine the in vivo function of Ifn-ε, mice with a null mutation in the Ifn-ε gene (Ifn-ε -/- mice) were generated. These mice are fertile and healthy with no developmental differences compared to wild type (Ifn-ε +/+) mice. Interestingly, Ifn-ε regulates the basal levels of anti-bacterial/viral Interferon regulated genes which prime essential immune responses. To determine the role of Ifn-ε in reproductive tract infection, we examined the course and outcome of Chlamydia muridarum and Herpes Simplex Virus-2 reproductive tract infection in Ifn-ε -/- mice. Importantly, Ifn-ε -/- mice are more susceptible to infection. Besides, Ifn-ε -/- mice presented with higher clinical scores, more bacterial/viral load and more pro-inflammatory gene expression following the infections. Therefore, I demonstrate the importance of Ifn-ε in both initial infection and clearance of bacteria and viruses. This unique cytokine Ifn-ε has evolved special mechanisms of regulation in order to perform an essential protective function in the unique environment of the female reproductive tract where the immune response is unique and must be able to provide an effective protection against pathogens and allow the foreign sperm entry and embryo implantation. Hence, this work has important implications for protection against sexually transmitted diseases which represent a global health problem and for the development of successful vaccines in this unusual mucosal site.

description: As the third paper in the multiple-part series, we report the statistical properties of radio bursts detected from the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20201124A with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio telescope (FAST) during an extremely active episode between the 25th and the 28th of September 2021 (UT). We focus on the polarisation properties of 536 bright bursts with $\mathrm{S/N}>50$. We found that the Faraday rotation measures (RMs) monotonically dropped from $-579 \ {\rm rad \ m^{-2}}$ to $-605 \ {\rm rad \ m^{-2}}$ in the 4-day window. The RM values were compatible with the values ($-300$ to $-900\ {\rm rad \ m^{-2}}$ ) reported 4 month ago (Xu et al. 2022). However, the RM evolution rate in the current observation window was at least an order of magnitude smaller than the one ($\sim 500\ {\rm rad \ m^{-2}\, day^{-1}}$) previously reported during the rapid RM-variation phase, but is still higher than the one ($\le 1\ {\rm rad \ m^{-2} day^{-1}}$ ) during the later RM no-evolution phase. The bursts of FRB 20201124A were highly polarised with the total degree of polarisation (circular plus linear) greater than 90% for more than 90\% of all bursts. The distribution of linear polarisation position angles (PAs), degree of linear polarisation ($L/I$), and degree of circular polarisation ($V/I$) can be characterised with unimodal distribution functions. During the observation window, the distributions became wider with time, i.e. with larger scatter, but the centroids of the distribution functions remained nearly constant. For individual bursts, significant PA variations (confidence level 5-$σ$) were observed in 33% of all bursts. The polarisation of single pulses seems to follow certain complex trajectories on the Poincaré sphere, which may shed light on the radiation mechanism at the source or the plasma properties along the path of FRB propagation.

description: We analyze numerically the formation and the subsequent dynamics of two-dimensional matter wave dark solitons in a Thomas-Fermi rubidium condensate using various techniques. An initially imprinted sharp phase gradient leads to the dynamical formation of a stationary soliton as well as very shallow grey solitons, whereas a smooth gradient only creates grey solitons. The depth and hence, the velocity of the soliton is provided by the spatial width of the phase gradient, and it also strongly influences the snake-instability dynamics of the two dimensional solitons. The vortex dipoles stemming from the unstable soliton exhibit rich dynamics. Notably, the annihilation of a vortex dipole via a transient dark lump or a vortexonium state, the exchange of vortices between either a pair of vortex dipoles or a vortex dipole and a single vortex, and so on. For sufficiently large width of the initial phase gradient, the solitons may decay directly into vortexoniums instead of vortex pairs, and also the decay rate is augmented. Later, we discuss alternative techniques to generate dark solitons, which involve a Gaussian potential barrier and time-dependent interactions, both linear and periodic. The properties of the solitons can be controlled by tuning the amplitude or the width of the potential barrier. In the linear case, the number of solitons and their depths are determined by the quench time of the interactions. For the periodic modulation, a transient soliton lattice emerges with its periodicity depending on the modulation frequency, through a wave number selection governed by the local Bogoliubov spectrum. Interestingly, for sufficiently low barrier potential, both Faraday pattern and soliton lattice coexist. The snake instability dynamics of the soliton lattice is characteristically modified if the Faraday pattern is present.

description: We report the properties of more than 800 bursts detected from the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20201124A with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio telescope (FAST) during an extremely active episode on UTC September 25th-28th, 2021 in a series of four papers. In this fourth paper of the series, we present a systematic search of the spin period and linear acceleration of the source object from both 996 individual pulse peaks and the dedispersed time series. No credible spin period was found from this data set. We rule out the presence of significant periodicity in the range between 1 ms to 100 s with a pulse duty cycle $< 0.49\pm0.08$ (when the profile is defined by a von-Mises function, not a boxcar function) and linear acceleration up to $300$ m s$^{-2}$ in each of the four one-hour observing sessions, and up to $0.6$ m s$^{-2}$ in all 4 days. These searches contest theoretical scenarios involving a 1 ms to 100 s isolated magnetar/pulsar with surface magnetic field $<10^{15}$ G and a small duty cycle (such as in a polar-cap emission mode) or a pulsar with a companion star or black hole up to 100 M$_{\rm \odot}$ and $P_b>10$ hours. We also perform a periodicity search of the fine structures and identify 53 unrelated millisecond-timescale "periods" in multi-components with the highest significance of 3.9 $σ$. The "periods" recovered from the fine structures are neither consistent nor harmonically related. Thus they are not likely to come from a spin period. We caution against claiming spin periodicity with significance below $\sim$ 4 $σ$ with multi-components from one-off FRBs. We discuss the implications of our results and the possible connections between FRB multi-components and pulsar micro-structures.

description: We determine the mass scale of Planck galaxy clusters using gravitational lensing mass measurements from the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH). We have compared the lensing masses to the Planck Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) mass proxy for 21 clusters in common, employing a Bayesian analysis to simultaneously fit an idealized CLASH selection function and the distribution between the measured observables and true cluster mass. We used a tiered analysis strategy to explicitly demonstrate the importance of priors on weak lensing mass accuracy. In the case of an assumed constant bias, $b_{SZ}$, between true cluster mass, $M_{500}$, and the Planck mass proxy, $M_{PL}$, our analysis constrains $1- b_{SZ} = 0.73\pm 0.10$ when moderate priors on weak lensing accuracy are used, including a zero-mean Gaussian with standard deviation of 8% to account for possible bias in lensing mass estimations. Our analysis explicitly accounts for possible selection bias effects in this calibration sourced by the CLASH selection function. Our constraint on the cluster mass scale is consistent with recent results from the Weighing the Giants program and the Canadian Cluster Comparison Project. It is also consistent, at 1.34$σ$, with the value needed to reconcile the Planck SZ cluster counts with Planck's base $Λ$CDM model fit to the primary cosmic microwave background anisotropies.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: The main purpose of this study was to investigate the most significant key competencies needed to be an effective project manager in the ethio-telecom. In addition it tried to assess the core project management competencies and deficiencies in Ethio telecom. In order to answer raised research questions, both primary and secondary sources of data were used. The primary data were collected through semi-structured interview. Non probabilistic sampling procedure with a combination of purposive and judgmental sampling method was used to obtain 30 responses from selected project managers, project team members and human resource managers. Document review was used to investigate the project management practice and documentation of the company. Regarding the study findings, this study found project managers in Ethio telecom have soft competences like project communication management, stakeholder management and project human resource management and they need improvement in their skills related to conflict management, contract management and negotiation. And about the hard competencies, Ethio telecom project managers need to improve planning of schedule, documentation of each project lifecycle completion, risk management including the mitigation strategies and developing requirements. As per the result of the analysis, project managers and the company were not conscious and focused related to technology transfer from the vendor to the right person , preparing and documenting lesson learned, and imitating different technology from the vendor in order to handle by internal human capacity. In general the researcher found that, project managers, of Ethio telecom are experienced in managing the functional/operational area of the company and mostly the assignment of the project managers were done by the top level management of the company. The researcher recommended that for better improvements of project managers' competency and achieving success in project management in the company, the company should mature the project management office which can support all projects and the company should work in the direction of imitating different technology from partners and being focused in technology and knowledge transfer to manage projects with internal capability in the near future.

description: We report the properties of more than 800 bursts detected from the repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source FRB 20201124A with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) during an extremely active episode on UTC September 25-28, 2021 in a series of four papers. In this second paper of the series, we mainly focus on the energy distribution of the detected bursts. The event rate initially increased exponentially but the source activity stopped within 24 hours after the 4th day. The detection of 542 bursts in one hour during the fourth day marked the highest event rate detected from one single FRB source so far. The bursts have complex structures in the time-frequency space. We find a double-peak distribution of the waiting time, which can be modeled with two log-normal functions peaking at 51.22 ms and 10.05 s, respectively. Compared with the emission from a previous active episode of the source detected with FAST, the second distribution peak time is smaller, suggesting that this peak is defined by the activity level of the source. We calculate the isotropic energy of the bursts using both a partial bandwidth and a full bandwidth and find that the energy distribution is not significantly changed. We find that an exponentially connected broken-power-law function can fit the cumulative burst energy distribution well, with the lower and higher-energy indices being $-1.22\pm0.01$ and $-4.27\pm0.23$, respectively. Assuming a radio radiative efficiency of $η_r = 10^{-4}$, the total isotropic energy of the bursts released during the four days when the source was active is already $3.9\times10^{46}$ erg, exceeding $\sim 23\%$ of the available magnetar dipolar magnetic energy. This challenges the magnetar models invoking an inefficient radio emission (e.g. synchrotron maser models).

description: Type IIB flux vacua based on Landau-Ginzburg models without Kähler deformations provide fully-controlled insights into the non-geometric and strongly-coupled string landscape. We show here that supersymmetric flux configurations at the Fermat point of the $1^9$ model, which were found long-time ago to saturate the orientifold tadpole, leave a number of massless fields, which however are not all flat directions of the superpotential at higher order. More generally, the rank of the Hessian of the superpotential is compatible with a suitably formulated tadpole conjecture for all fluxes that we found. Moreover, we describe new infinite families of supersymmetric 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ Minkowski and AdS vacua and confront them with several other swampland conjectures.

Here, charge balance functions, using protons and antiprotons binned by relative momentum, rapidity and azimuthal angle, are shown to clarify the amount of annihilation in the hadronic stage. This enables a more accurate extraction of the baryo-chemistry at the beginning of the hadronic stage. Understanding annihilation is also crucial if charge balance correlations are to be used to infer the chemistry of the earliest stages of a heavy-ion collision. Calculations are presented based on microscopic simulations of the hadronic stage coupled to a hydrodynamic description of the earlier stage, along with a detailed modeling of correlations of protons and antiprotons, known as charge-balance functions.

description: This thesis aims to explore a series of psychological aspects underlying the human-dog relationship, in order to better understand the significance and value dogs add to people’s lives. This qualitative study focuses on busy professionals who reported strong psychological bonds with their pet dogs. The aims of the phenomenological study were to explore how socially and economically successful people describe psychologically significant aspects of the companionship they experience with their dogs, how dogs add psychological value to people’s lives who are not physically or socially deficient, why such owners choose to have psychologically close relationships with their dogs despite their busy lives, and how dogs add meaning to their owners’ lives. The purpose of the study was to develop a deeper understanding of the psychological dimensions of the concept of ‘companionship’ between dogs and people. A series of semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted with 37 dog owners in Brisbane (an Australian city with a population of 1.8 Million people) in 2008. The sample was ethnically homogeneous, consisting of 25 women and 12 men ranging in age between 18 and 66. Owners first completed a qualifying questionnaire and were selected to participate if they were identified as having a strong psychological bond with their dog. Based on the analysis of the interview transcripts, four main themes emerged: (1) Human-dog companionship consists of psychological intimacy dimensions usually attributed to relationships between people. This finding offers an extension to previous research, where companionship was traditionally related to social support and attachment, or described in functional terms. (2) Dogs offer opportunities for owners to experience meaning, engagement and pleasure, which are considered key ingredients to happiness. The implication of happiness and its relationship to economic and social success are explored. (3) Owners feel unconditionally loved by their dogs, and provide a psychological asset to their owners. The implications of this asset are discussed. (4) Dogs possess virtue qualities highly esteemed in people, and may play a role in their owner’s self-actualisation process through role modelling of these qualities. The study offers a new contribution to research by examining the human-dog companionship from a psychological benefits perspective, with a population of dog owners considered to be highly successful by the standards of Western Society. As dogs have been identified as an important psychological asset to owners, this has important implications for policies in relation to residential and holiday accommodation, quality of care and services provided to dogs and their owners, provisions for evacuation of pets during natural disasters, access to out of home care facilities, and the support needs for owners who lose their dog.

description: Ridge and valley enhancing filters are widely used in applications such as vessel detection in medical image computing. When images are degraded by noise or include vessels at different scales, such filters are an essential step for meaningful and stable vessel localization. In this work, we propose a novel multi-scale anisotropic fourth-order diffusion equation that allows us to smooth along vessels, while sharpening them in the orthogonal direction. The proposed filter uses a fourth order diffusion tensor whose eigentensors and eigenvalues are determined from the local Hessian matrix, at a scale that is automatically selected for each pixel. We discuss efficient implementation using a Fast Explicit Diffusion scheme and demonstrate results on synthetic images and vessels in fundus images. Compared to previous isotropic and anisotropic fourth-order filters, as well as established second-order vessel enhancing filters, our newly proposed one better restores the centerlines in all cases.

Determination of Complex Refractive Index using Maximum Deviation Angle through Prism

description: Light-absorbing materials are widely used, and their optical properties are an important factor. Snell's law does not hold in materials that partially absorb light. Hence, the optical path in refraction is calculated from Maxwell's law. We used it to obtain the deviation angle when a light passes through a prism made of light absorbing material. As a result, the deviation angle has a local maximum point. The deviation angle near the local maximum is sensitive to the real and imaginary parts of the refractive index. The local maximum deviation angle and its incident angle are used to determine the complex index of refraction. This measurement has the same advantages as measuring the minimum deviation angle of a transparent prism. That is, when the optical bench is slightly rotated and the measurement light is observed, the moving direction of the light-spot is reversed at the extreme value. The detection is easy. Then, it is necessary to determine the complex refractive index from the measured local maximum deviation angle and its incident angle. These two angles are plotted parametrically by varying the real part of the refractive index under a fixed imaginary part. The similar curves are drawn under the fixed real parts. Each curve has a fixed value for the real or imaginary parts of the refractive index. Drawings of these many curves are made prior to measurement. Then we select the four curves that are closest to the local maximum deviation angle and its incident angle. Four fixed values attached to each of the four curves determine the complex index of refraction. Various liquids can be put in a prism container made of parallel plate glass and their local maximum deviation angles are measured. The method in this paper can easily determine the complex refractive index and can be used for material identification

description: Archive for the synthetic data pre-conference workshop at the Open Science Festival on September 1, 2022 Contents of this archive The original workshop proposal submitted to the conference can be found in the 00_proposal folder. The workshop was held in four parts: 01_introduction - An introduction to synthetic data & the privacy-utility tradeoff. 02_metasynth - Hands-on high-privacy synthetic data generation using the metasynth package. 03_synthpop - Hands-on high-utility synthetic data generation using the synthpop package. 04_closing - A short closing / conclusion. Abstract Open data is one of the pillars of open science. However, there are often barriers in the way of making research data openly available, relating to consent, privacy, or organisational boundaries. In such cases, synthetic data is an excellent solution: the real data is kept secret, but a "fake" version of the data is available. The promise of the synthetic dataset is that others can then investigate the data structure, rerun scripts, use the data in educational materials, or even run a completely different analysis on their own. But how do you generate synthetic data? In this session, we will introduce the field of synthetic data generation and apply several tools to generate synthetic versions of datasets, with various level of utility and privacy. We will be paying extra attention to practical issues such as missing values, data types, and disclosure control. Participants can either use a provided example dataset or they can bring their own data! Contact This workshop was a project by the ODISSEI Social Data Science (SoDa) team.

The degree of the Gauss map of the theta divisor

description: We study the degree of the Gauss map of the theta divisor of principally polarised complex abelian varieties. We use this to obtain a bound on the multiplicity of the theta divisor along irreducible components of its singular locus, and apply this bound in examples, and to understand the local structure of isolated singular points. We further define a stratification of the moduli space of ppav's by the degree of the Gauss map. In dimension four, we show that this stratification gives a weak solution of the Schottky problem, and we conjecture that this is true in any dimension.
The history of psychoanalysis in Australia.

description: Rather than interrogated, as Freud suggested in the paper he sent to Sydney a century ago, psychoanalysis in Australia has largely been taken as a given. This has lent it an empty coherence that is suggestive of a lie: an "almost-ness" that sharpens the outline of truth. It is my thesis that, by failing to conceptualise what psychoanalysis is, analysts and those who historicised psychoanalysis have joined in a larger Australian indifference to subversive discourses of the self. In this work I explore the neglected topography of psychoanalysis as it intersects with the lie of the land - from Freud's mistaken assessment of aborigines as uncivilised, to the fantasy Australia had of Freud as an imagined visitor, and as an authority able to subdue the wilderness of the unconscious. Using the work of Jacques Lacan as a means to examine psychoanalytic orthodoxy in Australia, the thesis considers how the major psychoanalytic theories were configured or ignored, and what impact they had on intellectual and cultural life. I look at the way that the story of psychoanalysis has been told in the existing historical accounts, wondering why, if Freud's creation is, as some would contend, the grandest apparatus for the generation of knowledge-power, it was never fully critiqued by those who claimed to know about it in Australia.

Además de ello, después de la crisis económica de los años 90 donde a finales de dicha década el país alcanzó niveles de déficit presupuestarios superiores al 7%, además que enfrento un fenómeno de traslado de los niveles de deuda de los gobiernos departamentales y municipales. Se hizo necesaria una reforma constitucional que dio origen al proceso de descentralización que le dio a los departamentos y entidades territoriales responsabilidad en la racionalización financiera y administrativa de los recursos transferidos.

description: We consider a recently proposed fully discrete Galerkin scheme for the Benjamin-Ono equation which has been found to be locally convergent in finite time for initial data in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$. By assuming that the initial data is sufficiently regular we obtain theoretical convergence rates for the scheme both in the full line and periodic versions of the associated initial value problem. These rates are illustrated with some numerical examples.
