description: Whether loved, hated, leveraged or misunderstood; some form of data is essential to design that seeks to create change in the real world. From searchable statistics to idiosyncratic insights, diverse types of data both inform and are informed by design praxis. In this workshop, participants will hear about how design data has been used to navigate interdisciplinary spaces, illuminate complex problems, and propose disruptive ideas. Participants are then invited to reflect, articulate, and analyse the different types of data in their own practice, and examine the design decisions and activities that make that data known. Learning from and with each other, this event creates a space for any creative practitioner to interrogate and transform their preconceptions about what data might look like, feel like, and ways it might deepen and inform our practices.
This workshop creates a space to interrogate our practices and share ideas around data.Introduce a model for articulating inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes of the design processes in order to better understand the design data produced. 10minDescribe the creation of and demonstrate the value of different types of data the through stories of use from several design researchers at Monash University XYX Lab and WonderLab 20minUse the model to look at what outputs are produced in participant’s work, how they might better capture this Design Data, and how it informs future iteration of their work. 40 minShare back as a group to learn from different types of design practice and data produced. 20 min
As designers, we produce data within our practice - through our workshops, procedures, methods, tools and activities used with participants. The outcomes from this are often types of data, sometimes in the form of personal, subjective, or idiosyncratic insights. As design plays an active role in shaping the future, it’s important for designers to identify this Design Data in order to improve the processes and activities that might help them make improvements across products, processes, and services. By discussing it from the point of view of a variety of practices, we hope to illustrate how data might also be leveraged to identify and test assumptions, provide evidence of value, and discover unintended impacts design may have, for designer practitioners and non designers alike.
This workshop is open to creative practitioners of all stages of their career, especially those that identify as working with or in some type of design practice. It would be interesting for students as well, though is targeted for participants who have some experience to reflect upon and share. Anyone interested in data or creative practice will be welcome, and participants with no design experience will examine and hopefully expand upon the recognition of types of data in their profession.

description: We present results from a suite of eight direct N-body simulations, performed with Nbody6++GPU, representing realistic models of rotating star clusters with up to 1.1 × 10^5 stars. Our models feature primordial (hard) binaries, a continuous mass spectrum, differential rotation, and tidal mass loss induced by the overall gravitational field of the host galaxy. We explore the impact of rotation and stellar evolution on the star cluster dynamics. In all runs for rotating star clusters, we detect a previously predicted mechanism: an initial phase of violent relaxation followed by the so-called gravogyro catastrophe. We find that the gravogyro catastrophe reaches a finite amplitude, which depends in strength on the level of the bulk rotation, and then levels off. After this phase the angular momentum is transferred from high-mass to low-mass particles in the cluster (both stars and compact objects). Simultaneously, the system becomes gravothermally unstable and collapses, thus undergoing the so-called gravothermal-gravogyro catastrophe. Comparing models with and without stellar evolution, we find an interesting difference. When stellar evolution is not considered, the whole process proceeds at a faster pace. The population of heavy objects tend to form a triaxial structure that rotates in the cluster centre. When stellar evolution is considered, we find that such a rotating bar is populated by stellar black holes and their progenitors. The triaxial structure becomes axisymmetric over time, but we also find that the models without stellar evolution suffer repeated gravogyro catastrophes as sufficient angular momentum and mass are removed by the tidal field. We find a possible dependence of the abundances of BH-BH binaries on initial cluster rotation in our simulations.

subject: Education policy

description: Access to education remains out of reach for half of refugee children and youth. Average gross enrolment rates stand at 38% for pre-primary, 65% for primary, 41% for secondary and 6% for tertiary education. Despite increasing research, evidence remains limited of what works, how, for whom, under what conditions and at what cost to improve refugee student access in countries of first asylum to national education systems (NES). To inform evidence-based decision making across policy, practice, advocacy and research, the ERICC programme reviewed and synthesised existing research on refugee access to NES. This policy brief summarises actionable findings from the ERICC Evidence Review: Expanding Refugee Access to National Education Systems: The State of the Evidence (forthcoming) to further highlight evidence gaps and research needs. These findings may be particularly useful for government agencies, donor organisations, humanitarian and development actors, and research bodies. The policy brief describes the substantive, methodological and geographic scope of existing evidence on refugee student access to NES. It then presents findings about six global-, regional- and national-level enabling factors and constraints for refugee student access to NES: financing, education infrastructure and sector capacity, political will and support for refugee inclusion, governance and coordination arrangements, non-state actor engagement and data systems. Local and child-level risk and protective factors further influencing refugee access to NES are presented in the third section of the brief, including: gender, socioeconomic and legal status, language barriers, perceptions of education relevance, and xenophobia, gender-based violence and intolerance. The fourth section synthesises evidence on interventions used in refugee-hosting contexts to improve student access: global and regional frameworks that support refugee inclusion; double shift schools; recognition, validation and accreditation of prior learning, flexible learning programmes, and host country language acquisition; cash transfers; and school feeding. Finally, this brief presents research needs which stakeholders can prioritise to significantly improve the evidence base for (cost-)effective, inclusive and scalable interventions that enhance refugee student access to education.

description: The NA61/SHINE experiment aims to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter and study properties of the onset of deconfinement. These goals are to be achieved by performing a two dimensional phase diagram ($T$-$μ_{B}$) scan - measurements of hadron production properties in proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions as a function of collision energy and system size. This contribution summarizes current the status and future plans as well as presents the first physics results of the NA61/SHINE ion program.

description: Motivation: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many loci implicated in disease susceptibility. Integration of GWAS summary statistics (p values) and functional genomic datasets should help to elucidate mechanisms. Results: We describe the extension of a previously described non-parametric method to test whether GWAS signals are enriched in functionally defined loci to a situation where only GWAS p values are available. The approach is implemented in VSEAMS, a freely available software pipeline. We use VSEAMS to integrate functional gene sets defined via transcription factor knock down experiments with GWAS results for type 1 diabetes and find variant set enrichment in gene sets associated with IKZF3, BATF and ESRRA. IKZF3 lies in a known T1D susceptibility region, whilst BATF and ESRRA overlap other immune disease susceptibility regions, validating our approach and suggesting novel avenues of research for type 1 diabetes. Availability and implementation: VSEAMS is available for download http://github.com/ollyburren/vseams.

description: An ethnobotanical survey was conducted to determine the plant species used against gout and gout-associated conditions (GACs) in Monduli, Arusha, Tanzania. The survey that involved 21 Maasai traditional food system (TFS) and traditional medicine (TM) practitioners revealed that the study area had 101 plant species distributed in 84 genera and 42 families. About 79% of the species were used as medicine; some were used as food or for processing. The medicinal plants (MPs) managed 69 health conditions including gout, “Olgila” and GACs. The MPs had potential nutritional and antioxidant agents against diseases including metabolic diseases (MDs), like gout. The root parts of the plants (54% species) were exploited the most; most plants (94%) were sourced from the wild. Integrated conservation and promotion measures are needed to prevent loss of TFS and TM knowledge.

The built environment serves as a reflection of ourselves. It can reflect, or obstruct, our needs, wants, motivations, and desires. Our daily lives are translated and transported into these spaces. COVID-19 has forced the border between the physical and digital to merge and become obscured as we navigate these spaces digitally in our own homes. Are they serving our needs or confronting the limitations of physical, cultural, and social barriers we find in the workplace, our schools, and essential services? There is an urgent need to re-examine our relationships to the locations we digitally navigate. How might we better understand how digital ecologies affect and reflect our lived experiences? How might we communally analyse these new digital experiences and locations? There is a level of care required in strengthening and reimagining these digital spaces. My research is currently investigating ways to learn from past lived experiences so that these futures not yet realised can be designed with greater intention. I propose a seminar discussion that can incorporate a short reflection activity where participants examine their relationship to digital environments by translating the felt experience into form. This material translation builds a frame of reference in which participants can then interpret and co-analyse thematic patterns raised through shared dialogue. Emergent, nascent needs become surfaced and applied through futuring prompts that aim to provide participants a reflexive language to share tacit knowledge once felt, but not yet articulated. New relationships to emerging digital locations require us to reimagine what is possible. This intentionality may support decision making when needing to create new spaces and/or experiences that give way to emergence. Such nascent actions, for which a designer cannot predict each potentiality, demands experiences that adapt to use and scenario, that are more inclusive to needs and wants, and that are not predetermined fixed realities.

description: The development of rotary nanomotors is crucial for further advancing NEMS technology. In this work, we report innovative design, assembly, and rotation of ordered arrays of nanomotors. The nanomotors were bottom-up assembled from nanoscale building blocks with nanowires as rotors, patterned nanomagnets as bearings, and quadrupole microelectrodes as stators. Arrays of nanomotors can be synchronously rotated with controlled angle, speed (to at least 18,000 rpm), and chirality by electric fields. Using analytical modeling, we revealed the fundamental nanoscale electrical, mechanical, and magnetic interactions in the nanomotor system, which excellently agrees with experimental results and provides critical understanding for designing future metallic NEMS devices. The nanowire motors were applied for controlled biomolecule release, and for the first time demonstrated releasing rate of biochemicals on nanoparticles can be tuned by mechanical rotation. The innovations reported in this research, from concept, design, actuation, to application are relevant to NEMS, nanomedicine, microfluidics, and lab-on-chip architectures.

Conference Workshop - Narrative Dioramas: Capturing new knowledge generated through storymaking within co-design activities
Creators: name: Anderson, Kelly L
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2020
Subjects: Design

description: Conference: International Conference on Design Principles & Practices Narrative Dioramas: Capturing new knowledge generated through storymaking within co-design activities focuses on three main generative methods within co-design activities: probes, prototypes, and toolkits. These methods focus on providing guidance for participants to interpret, make, and reflect upon a lived experience within a workshop. These generative methods help make things that are normally unobservable available as resources for design decisions and rationale. While methods such as interviews and observations give designers access to the explicit and observable, generative methods afford access to the tacit and implicit aspects of users’ lives. Generative making methods produce insights in many variations, sometimes taking the shape of performance, forms, and future imaginaries. This research is currently investigating how these variations emerge, and are shared through stories within workshops, as well as how best to analyse this story data within spaces of emergence. One motivation for trying to capture and analyse these stories as they emerge is twofold: 1) to help minimise the time and energy spent on data analysis far after the workshop occurs, and 2) to provide a platform for the participants to take a more active role in the analysis. Co-design methods have been while established, while a mode of analysis for generated data has not. This research seeks to develop a mode to attune to, and analyse, emergent data surfaced through stories.

description: The upgraded EU 1 MW, 170 GHz continuous wave (CW) industrial prototype gyrotron (TH1509U) for Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating and Current Drive (ECRH&CD) in ITER was tested at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The gyrotron surpassed the performance of the previous TH1509 tube. In particular, TH1509U delivered (i) 0.9 MW in 180 s pulses (max. pulse length of the KIT test stand) and (ii) more than 1 MW at a pulse length limited to 40 s, due to a problem with the test stand cooling circuit at that time. In addition, it was possible to demonstrate gyrotron operation at (iii) 0.5 MW in 1600 s pulses.

description: Although the mechanisms responsible for heating the Sun's corona and accelerating the solar wind are still being actively investigated, it is largely accepted that photospheric motions provide the energy source and that the magnetic field must play a key role in the process. \citet{2010ApJ...708L.116V} presented a model for heating and accelerating the solar wind based on the turbulent dissipation of Alfvén waves. We first use a time-dependent model of the solar wind to reproduce one of \citeauthor{2010ApJ...708L.116V}'s solutions; then we extend its application to the case when the energy equation includes thermal conduction and radiation losses, and the upper chromosphere is part of the computational domain. Using this model, we explore parameter space and describe the characteristics of a fast-solar-wind solution. We discuss how this formulation may be applied to a 3D MHD model of the coron a and solar wind \citep{2009ApJ...690..902L}.

description: Single-photon sources are a fundamental element for developing quantum technologies, and sources based on colour centres in diamonds are among the most promising candidates. The well-known NV centres are characterized by several limitations, thus few other defects have recently been considered. In the present work, we characterize in detail native efficient single colour centres emitting in the near infra-red in both standard IIa single-crystal and electronic-grade polycrystalline commercial CVD diamond samples. In the former case, a high-temperature annealing process in vacuum is necessary to induce the formation/activation of luminescent centres with good emission properties, while in the latter case the annealing process has marginal beneficial effects on the number and performances of native centres in commercially available samples. Although displaying significant variability in several photo physical properties (emission wavelength, emission rate instabilities, saturation behaviours), these centres generally display appealing photophysical properties for applications as single photon sources: short lifetimes, high emission rates and strongly polarized light. The native centres are tentatively attributed to impurities incorporated in the diamond crystal during the CVD growth of high-quality type IIa samples, and offer promising perspectives in diamond-based photonics.

description: Conference: AMPS Experiential Design – Rethinking relations between people, objects and environments

This paper explores current doctoral research developing a co-analysis data capturing tool, called a Narrative Diorama. The tool prompts participants to examine their lived experiences through material exploration, interpreting it through a reflexive language (being in conversation with their own data), and co-analysing the material, experiential data through a shared dialogue. This research investigates how the device of a diorama can be used to help participants make sense of their lived experience in order to inform future designs not yet realised. Whereas explicit knowledge is knowledge that is transmittable in formal, systemic language, tacit knowledge is knowledge in a person’s head which has a personal quality and is hard to formalise and communicate.1 Narrative Dioramas seek to provide a mechanism in which participants can translate knowledge known, but hard to articulate.
Green Bank Telescope observations of low column density HI around NGC 2997 and NGC 6946

description: Observations of ongoing HI accretion in nearby galaxies have only identified about 10% of the needed fuel to sustain star formation in these galaxies. Most of these observations have been conducted using interferometers and may have missed lower column density, diffuse, HI gas that may trace the missing 90% of gas. Such gas may represent the so-called "cold flows" predicted by current theories of galaxy formation to have never been heated above the virial temperature of the dark matter halo. As a first attempt to identify such cold flows around nearby galaxies and complete the census of HI down to N(HI)~10^18 cm^-2, I used the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT) to map the circumgalactic (r < 100-200 kpc) HI environment around NGC 2997 and NGC 6946. The resulting GBT observations cover a four square degree area around each galaxy with a 5-sigma detection limit of N(HI)~10^18 cm^-2 over a 20 km/s linewidth. This project complements absorption line studies, which are well-suited to the regime of lower N(HI). Around NGC 2997, the GBT HI data reveal an extended HI disk and all of its surrounding gas-rich satellite galaxies, but no filamentary features. Furthermore, the HI mass as measured with the GBT is only 7% higher than past interferometric measurements. After correcting for resolution differences, the HI extent of the galaxy is 23% larger at the N(HI)~1.2x10^18 cm^-2 level as measured by the GBT. On the other hand, the HI observations of NGC 6946 reveal a filamentary feature apparently connecting NGC 6946 with its nearest companions. This HI filament has N(HI)~10^18 cm^-2 and a FWHM of 55+-5 km/s and was invisible in past interferometer observations. The properties of this filament are broadly consistent with being a cold flow or debris from a past tidal interaction between NGC 6946 and its satellites.

description: Non-linear sound propagation is investigated computationally by simulating compressible time-developing mixing layers using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach and solving the viscous Burgers Equation. The mixing layers are of convective Mach numbers of 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2. The LES results agree qualitatively with known flow behavior. Mach waves are observed in the near sound field of the supersonic mixing layer computed by the LES. These waves show steepening typical to non-linear propagation. Further calculations using the Burgers equation support this finding, where the initial wave slope has a role in kicking them. No visible non-linear propagation effects were found for the subsonic mixing layers. The effects of geometrical spreading and viscosity are also considered.

This paper explores current doctoral research developing a co-analysis data capturing tool, called a Narrative Diorama. The tool prompts participants to examine their lived experiences through material exploration, interpreting it through a reflexive language (being in conversation with their own data), and co-analysing the material, experiential data through a shared dialogue. This research investigates how the device of a diorama can be used to help participants make sense of their lived experience in order to inform future designs not yet realised. Whereas explicit knowledge is knowledge that is transmittable in formal, systemic language, tacit knowledge is knowledge in a person’s head which has a personal quality and is hard to formalise and communicate.1 Narrative Dioramas seek to provide a mechanism in which participants can translate knowledge known, but hard to articulate.

description: We estimate the energy input into the solar corona from photospheric footpoint motions, using observations of a plage region by the Hinode Solar Optical Telescope. Assuming a perfectly ideal coronal evolution, two alternative lower bounds for the Poynting flux are computed based on field line footpoint trajectories, without requiring horizontal magnetic field data. When applied to the observed velocities, a bound based solely on displacements between the two footpoints of each field line is tighter than a bound based on relative twist between field lines. Depending on the assumed length of coronal magnetic field lines, the higher bound is found to be reasonably tight compared with a Poynting flux estimate using an available vector magnetogram. It is also close to the energy input required to explain conductive and radiative losses in the active region corona. Based on similar analysis of a numerical convection simulation, we suggest that observations with higher spatial resolution are likely to bring the bound based on relative twist closer to the first bound, but not to increase the first bound substantially. Finally, we put an approximate upper bound on the magnetic energy by constructing a hypothetical ``unrelaxed'' magnetic field with the correct field line connectivity.

description: Nach der Auftaktveranstaltung "Alles unter einem Dach" im Jahr 2021 wurde ein produktiver Austausch über digitale Infrastrukturen für Universitätssammlungen gestartet. Weiter ging es unter dem Titel „Zeig mir Deine Datenbank“ mit einer Reihe großzügiger Einblicke zur jeweils verwendeten Software und den Erfahrungen an verschiedenen Standorten. In Gesprächen, online und bei Sammlungstreffen wurde seither stetig Interesse an dieser Form des Austauschs bekundet. Aus diesem Grunde wurde 2024 ein Follow-up ins Leben gerufen, um zu besprechen, was aus den vorgestellten Projekten wurde und wie wir die Reihe fortsetzen können.
Wie bereits bei der Auftaktveranstaltung 2021(https://sammeln.hypotheses.org/3395) stellt die Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster im September 2024 unter dem Titel "Universitäres Sammlungsmanagement. Ein Werkstattbericht" ihre Fortschritte und den aktuellen Stand des Sammlungsmanagements an der Universität Münster der Community vor.

description: We develop a systematic typical medium dynamical cluster approximation that provides a proper description of the Anderson localization transition in three dimensions (3D). Our method successfully captures the localization phenomenon both in the low and large disorder regimes, and allows us to study the localization in different momenta cells, which renders the discovery that the Anderson localization transition occurs in a cell-selective fashion. As a function of cluster size, our method systematically recovers the re-entrance behavior of the mobility edge and obtains the correct critical disorder strength for Anderson localization in 3D.

International Energy Agency World Energy Prices, 1970-2020
IEA World Energy Prices
Creators: name: International Energy Agency
Publisher: name: UK Data Service
Year: 2020

description:
The International Energy Agency (IEA) World Energy Prices database includes annual energy prices data for gasoline, automotive diesel, electricity and other products.

Energy prices are a significant part of our domestic expenditures, play an important role for industrial competitiveness and influence energy consumption patterns. End-use prices-paid by final consumers- are affected by movements in commodity markets as well as policy decisions. As countries move away from regulated pricing, monitoring energy end-use prices around the world has become increasingly important for analysts and policy makers. World Energy Prices aims to serve this purpose by being the most reliable database that uses official sources with transparent and documented methodologies for each country.
Quantitative measurement of orbital angular momentum in electron microscopy

description: Electron vortex beams have been predicted to enable atomic scale magnetic information measurement, via transfer of orbital angular momentum. Research so far has focussed on developing production techniques and applications of these beams. However, methods to measure the outgoing orbital angular momentum distribution are also a crucial requirement towards this goal. Here, we use a method to obtain the orbital angular momentum decomposition of an electron beam, using a multi-pinhole interferometer. We demonstrate both its ability to accurately measure orbital angular momentum distribution, and its experimental limitations when used in a transmission electron microscope.

description: Despite recent successes in the synthesis of boron nanotubes (BNTs), the atomic arrangement of their walls has not yet been determined and many questions about their basic properties do remain. Here, we unveil the dynamical stability of BNTs by means of first-principles molecular dynamics simulations. We find that free-standing, single-wall BNTs with diameters larger than 0.6 nm are thermally stable at the experimentally reported synthesis temperature of 870$^\circ$C and higher. The walls of thermally stable BNTs are found to have a variety of different mixed triangular-hexagonal morphologies. Our results substantiate the importance of mixed triangular-hexagonal morphologies as a structural paradigm for atomically thin boron.

description: This paper discusses the results of field-based geological investigations of exhumed rocks exposed in the Musgrave Ranges (Central Australia) and in Nusfjord (Lofoten, Norway) that preserve evidence for lower continental crustal earthquakes with focal depths of approximately 25–40 km. These studies have established that deformation of the dry lower continental crust is characterized by a cyclic interplay between viscous creep (mylonitization) and brittle, seismic slip associated with the formation of pseudotachylytes (a solidified melt produced during seismic slip along a fault in silicate rocks). Seismic slip triggers rheological weakening and a transition to viscous creep, which may be already active during the immediate post-seismic deformation along faults initially characterized by frictional melting and wall-rock damage. The cyclical interplay between seismic slip and viscous creep implies transient oscillations in stress and strain rate, which are preserved in the shear zone microstructure. In both localities, the spatial distribution of pseudotachylytes is consistent with a local (deep) source for the transient high stresses required to generate earthquakes in the lower crust. This deep source is the result of localized stress amplification in dry and strong materials generated at the contacts with ductile shear zones, producing multiple generations of pseudotachylyte over geological time. This implies that both the short- and the long-term rheological evolution of the dry lower crust typical of continental interiors is controlled by earthquake cycle deformation.This article is part of the discussion meeting issue ‘Understanding earthquakes using the geological record’.
