description: Motivated by the widespread experimental observations of nematicity in strongly underdoped cuprate superconductors, we investigate the possibility of enhanced nematic fluctuations in the vicinity of a Mott insulator that displays Néel-type antiferromagnetic order. By performing a strong-coupling expansion of an effective model that contains both Cu-$d$ and O-$p$ orbitals on the square lattice, we demonstrate that quadrupolar fluctuations in the $p$-orbitals inevitably generate a biquadratic coupling between the spins of the $d$-orbitals. The key point revealed by our classical Monte Carlo simulations and large-$N$ calculations is that the biquadratic term favors local stripe-like magnetic fluctuations, which result in an enhanced nematic susceptibility that onsets at a temperature scale determined by the effective Heisenberg exchange $J$. We discuss the impact of this type of nematic order on the magnetic spectrum and outline possible implications on our understanding of nematicity in the cuprates.

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 83, 155-174
description: A major stimulus for a detailed investigation of the role of small towns in British and European local societies occurred some score years ago under the aegis of Peter Clark and this initiative has subsequently borne tremendous fruit, providing insights into most aspects of small-town life in early-modern England. Perhaps one facet which has not been as well examined for small towns as for larger urban places is the phenomenology of the small urban world. Recent attention to the visual, spatial, auditory and experiential small worlds of early-modern England make an exploration of the small town desirable. Such a dissection of quotidian life in early-modern Loughborough cautions us against being too adamant about dichotomies between urban and rural, but equally not to exaggerate the extent to which early-modern small towns were merely appendages of the countryside. As is so often the case, complexity was the main characteristic.

[T]he Estates of Sundry of My Tenauntes': Landholding in Loughborough in 'Tawney's Century'
Creators: name: Postles, David
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2022

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 87, 191-206
description: The hundred years between 1540 and 1640, traditionally defined as 'Tawney's century', were associated with disruption, instability and formative transformations and transitions in landholding, estates and the land market. The accretion of monastic lands acted as a catalyst on the land market from 1536-40 onwards, advancing the fortunes of some, identified by Tawney as the enterprising gentry. A historiographical converse of the 'rise of the gentry' was the perceived 'crisis' of the aristocracy, restricted in its ability to respond to the inflationary pressures which accelerated from 1540. More recently, a transformation in landed fortunes has been interpreted as the genesis of 'agrarian capitalism', by which the most precocious landlords and some of their tenants invested in and expanded their landholdings, exploiting their rural bases more efficiently. Tensions consequently ensued in the relationship between landlords and (some of) their tenants, particularly the latter who held by the customary tenure of copyhold. The context has been described as a conflict between custom and improvement which involved a contest over custom. The issues of rural landholding during these three or four generations thus extend to the condition of the 'peasantry', the ability of landlords to adapt or exploit and the nature of seigniorial policy, the stratification of landholding within the 'peasantry' through engrossing and consolidation of holdings, consequent to their activity of the local land market, and the persistence or otherwise of landholding dynasties and networks. One simple introductory comment may be made about transactions in real estate in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: the market was fluid in general and in loughborough in particular. A high volume of transactions in land remained a feature. It is with the structure of 'peasant' landholding and landlords' estate policy in the parish of loughborough that this exploration is concerned. by 'structure' is intended here the contextual constraints on landholding in the early-modern Midlands: those factors in the relationship between lord, tenant and tenure which governed much of the accumulation of and relationship to the land. The counterpoint is the fluidity of the land market, partly constricted by considerations of inheritance and the family, but also exhibiting some volatility between 1540 and 1640, as land moved both outside and inside the family.

New Walk in the Nineteenth Century

Year: 2023

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 44, 72-81
description: The New Walk is the subject of a plan, in general terms an admirable one, for its main aim is to preserve as far as possible the unique character of the Walk. The initial proposals involve neither great innovations nor extravagant expenditure, yet the plan is both sad and ironic, sad because it has taken the decay of parts of the New Walk to force us to acknowledge what the City Planning Officer says in his report: "New Walk is widely known and recognised nationally as a fine historic example of a pedestrian promenade, linking squares and urban spaces of pleasing character and forming an attractive environment". And it is ironic because the character we are now so anxious to protect and enhance by planning, was entirely the result of chance. At no period in the development of New Walk did anyone have an overall plan of action. In this paper it is proposed to outline the history of New Walk and to show how the various interested parties produced from their individual schemes this "attractive environment".
The architecture of the extended mind: towards a critical urban ecology
Creators: name: Goodbun, Jon
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2011

description: This thesis is concerned with the difficulties that the discipline of architecture has encountered in thinking about and articulating ecological questions in recent years. I argue that it is precisely because the problems posed by the environmental question have so many personal, political and social dimensions, and are so radically trans-disciplinary, that architectural discourse and its metropolitan mediations is well positioned to reflect upon, articulate and stage as a new modern project, this multi-disciplinary and socio-ecological complexity. The content of this thesis therefore crosses a number of different fields within the arts and sciences. I scrutinise a series of contemporary and historical moments in the development of systems thinking – or what Alfred North Whitehead described as “the philosophy of organism” – with particular reference to a socio-political re-conception of architecture, urbanism and the wider environment today. I describe a network of relationships which traces the surprisingly dynamic histories of a series of concepts – including nature, matter, organism, ecology, network, mind, emergence, system and dialectics – as they unfold across a wide range of disciplines, including architecture, cybernetics, Marxist theory, ecology and the cognitive sciences. Ultimately, this thesis suggests that critical urban ecology – the architectural investigation of ecological aesthetics and urban political ecology – will be a key field of both theoretical investigation and practical design activism in the coming years, as the deep contradictions of capitalism unfold at an ever more intensified global scale.

description: With the start of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the global education system has a faced immense challenges and disruptions resulting in and the necessity for an immediate redesign of teaching and learning in the school context. Face-to-face classroom instruction had to be replaced by ‘emergency remote teaching’, requiring teacher to adapt their daily routines to a new and unprecedented educational reality. Researchers and policymakers worldwide have agreed that, despite the fact that efforts were made to immediately adapt to emergency remote teaching, disadvantaged and vulnerable students may be especially at risk in emergency remote teaching. Given the differences in schooling organization across countries during the COVID-19 pandemic it can be expected that teachers performed inclusive instructional practices significantly different. Against the unpredictable situation, cross-country research has been urgently required to provide data that could inform education policy. Thus, this study explored teachers’ perceptions of supporting at risk students during the first COVID-19 school closures, as well as examining teachers’ inclusive teaching practices in three countries: Germany, Austria and Portugal. ANOVA results revealed important country differences. In general, it appears that teachers in Germany and Austria reported to have implemented less practices to address vulnerable and at-risk students compared to Portuguese teachers. Implications of the results, as well as further lines of research are outlined.

Forecasting stock prices on the basis of technical analysis in the industrial sectors of the UK stock market

Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Finance

description: This study aims to evaluate, critically and rigorously the weak-form market efficiency and forecasting power of technical analysis in different industries in the developed market, the London Stock Exchange. For this purpose, weekly data were collected from the FTSE-all share index, FTSE-350 general industrial index and twenty companies of four different industries, for the period between 3 March 1997 and 16 July 2017. Friedman test detects that data do not have any seasonality. It is found that there is a statistically significant impact of structural breakpoints for all selected series. Thus, their impacts have been ignored for the purpose of analysing and forecasting stock prices through identifying the plain data of sub-sample periods where there is no structural break for each series from the application of Bai-Perron’s multiple breaks test. The descriptive statistics table, histograms, and kernel density graphs show that the weekly closing prices of all the selected series are not normally distributed. The runs test and variance ratio tests document that the stock prices of all the series do not change erratically and randomly. Furthermore, Ljung-Box’s serial autocorrelation test evidences that a few series do not have serial auto-correlation at the first difference. Moreover, the ADF-unit root test demonstrates that there is no unit root at the first difference for all series. Therefore, the statistical inference was made that the market is not weak-form efficient in the period of the tests for all series and their stock prices are predictable. This study extends the current literature by considering the existence of weak-form inefficiency in different industrial sectors. It is found that industrial sectors impact market efficiency. The ARIMA and GARCH (1, 1) models contribute to evidence better short-term predictability of stock prices for all series in the manufacturing industry. Contrary to that, these models argue that most of the series in the service industry are not predictable. Therefore, this study does not find any support for weak-form efficiency over the periods tested in the London Stock Exchange. The ARIMA model shows superior prediction power to the GARCH (1,1) model and exponential smoothing techniques for most of the series. On the other hand, exponential smoothing techniques perform even better than ARIMA and GARCH (1, 1) models for a few series in the manufacturing industry due to series or industry characteristics. It is found that certain econometric models are better in certain industry sectors

Language loyalty and language shift in Bohemia in the long 19th century based on the language biography of Friedrich (Bedřich) Smetana

description: Language loyalty can be viewed from the perspective of both language stability and language shift. The paper focuses primarily on the latter as it shows how the Bohemian composer Friedrich Smetana (1824–1884) shifted from a predominate use of German to Czech in private and official correspondence and his diaries to become known as the Czech composer Bedřich Smetana. This change serves as a model of the collective language and social shift in Bohemia in the long 19th century. The paper shows, however, that Smetana encountered difficulties in making the language shift from German to Czech due to the stability of his previous language loyalty to German, tracing both Smetana’s subsequent evaluation of the limited language shift’s success and his explanation of its failure. In this regard, the study also considers the narrative of a Germanisation Smetana invokes to explain his loyalty to the German language during his education and beyond due to the Germanisation of educational institutions. The paper thus shows how Smetana’s narrative of his own language biography is a model narrative for his generation as whole.
Are cars more expensive in Shanghai? Used car price prediction incorporating regional policy factors

description: Countries with a well-developed auto manufacturing industry, such as Germany and the United States, often have a well-structured secondary market for cars. There are credible third-party platforms, such as Kelly Blue Book (KBB), DAT and Schwack-Liste, to evaluate the price of used cars. Such platforms do not exist in China. In this paper, I use quantitative methods to establish a model for used car price prediction for car market in Shanghai, China. I compare LASSO regression, Generalized Linear Model, Decision Tree and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models in order to determine the best prediction. Among them, our ANN model performed best, with model Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 2.11 and prediction MSE of 5.85. That is, given an out-of-sample car to be estimated, our ANN model can give a prediction price with a floating error of 58k CNY. While for the cars in the training set, the prediction has a more accurate estimate, with an error of 21k CNY. Although our model still needs further improvements, it is valuable for buyers and sellers of used cars to get a guidance price for their vehicles.

In the course of the proof we give an exponential (in $n$) lower bound for the cardinality of a set on which $\mathrm{SAut}(F_n)$, the unique index $2$ subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$, can act non-trivially. We also offer new results on the representation theory of $\mathrm{SAut(F_n)}$ in small dimensions over small, positive characteristics, and on rigidity of maps from $\mathrm{SAut}(F_n)$ to finite groups of Lie type and algebraic groups in characteristic $2$.

description: Pesticide residues on plant surfaces are a primary source of pesticide bioaccumulation in crops. In this context, we propose a mechanism-based model for understanding the pesticide fate on the plant surface following aerial application, taking into account fate modelling of the pesticide spray solution on the plant surface. Using chlorothalonil as an example, the simulation results revealed that the spray solution dissipated rapidly after aerial application, resulting in the formation of a saturated pesticide solution, which facilitated the diffusion process of the pesticide residue from the plant surface into the peel tissue. The proposed model generated higher simulated residue concentrations in the peel or pulp than the current model, owing to the proposed model’s assumption of rapid dissipation of the spray solution. This indicated that the proposed model specified the influence of the spray solution on the plant’s exposure to residues via the surface deposition pathway, whereas the current modelling approach presented a generic estimate of the residue dissipation on the plant surface that linked to the residue’s fate in the soil.

description: Electrification of aviation presents the next frontier in the decarbonization of the transportation sector. While current and next-generation battery technologies such as lithium metal anodes and solid state electrolytes enable cell-level specific energy expected to be adequate for the electrification of ground-based transportation, the electrification of aviation requires batteries with over 800 Wh/kg and therefore require the development of rechargeable batteries with ultra-high specific energy. Li-CFx is one such battery chemistry which possesses the specific energy required for the electrification of short and medium-range aircraft; however, rechargeability has not yet been achieved. Additionally, the discharge voltage is low relative to the open-circuit voltage by nearly 1 V even when discharged slowly. Understanding the discharge mechanism is therefore crucial to improve the performance of Li-CFx batteries. In this work, density functional theory calculations and electrochemical measurements are employed to build mechanistic insights into the discharge mechanism. Due to sluggish fluorine diffusion kinetics, the defluorination of CFx to yield carbon and LiF electrochemically is implausible; rather, lithium intercalates into CFx during discharge followed by a chemical decomposition into LiF and carbon, the thermodynamically stable products. A possible crystal structure for the lithium-intercalated CFx phase is proposed and mechanisms by which the phase transforms into LiF and carbon are investigated. Galvanostatic cycling in shallow DoD window showed some charge capacity, believed to be originating from the lithium-intercalated CFx. The term quasi-rechargeability is used to distinguish this from true rechargeability arising from the electrochemical conversion of LiF and carbon, and the challenges to be solved for enabling true rechargeability is outlined. A modification to the current hypothesis on the discharge mechanism is proposed, and the insights from this investigation is expected to yield design rules for enhanced discharge performance of a primary Li-CFx battery.

description: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a major global health emergency, with more than six million deaths worldwide. It is becoming increasingly challenging to treat COVID-19 due to the emergence of novel variants. The omicron variant is capable to evade defences and spread quickly. Among many validated COVID-19 targets, the spike (S) protein plays an important role in receptor recognition (via the S1 subunit) and membrane fusion (via the S2 subunit). The S protein is one of the vital targets for the development of drugs to combat this illness. In this research, we applied various computational methods such as molecular docking, molecular dynamics, MM-GBSA calculations, and ADMET prediction to identify potential natural products from Saudi medicinal plants against the spike omicron variant. As a result, three compounds (LTS0002490, LTS0117007, and LTS0217912) were identified with better binding affinity to the spike omicron variant compared to the reference compound (VE607). In addition, these compounds showed stable interactions with the target during molecular dynamics simulations for 140 ns. Last, these compounds have optimal ADMET properties. We suggest that these compounds may be considered promising hits to treat COVID-19 if experimentally validated.

The films of Kenneth Anger and the sixties politics of consciousness
Creators: name: Hughes, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2011

description: This thesis is an enquiry into avant-garde filmmaker Kenneth Anger’s stated impetus for aesthetic practice, in that his approach is characterised by a desire to elicit a 'transformative’ response from the spectator: “I chose cinema as the mode of personal expression for its potential and capacity for disruption: it is the surest means to incite change.” This central animating principle of Anger’s practice has been fundamentally neglected in what little critical writing that already exists on his work. Whilst this intent is framed within an esoteric religious paradigm – the occult – my contention is that it must also be understood as part of a much wider socio-­historical political process. I argue that as a personal friend of many within the Beat and psychedelic movements, Anger’s practice should be understood as part of the US countercultural drive to ‘revolutionise consciousness’. This aspiration was prompted by the widespread belief within the Sixties US counterculture that ‘normality’ was a state of implicit alienation, and that the undermining of standardised forms of subjectivity was necessary in order that a more authentic mode of existence be found; either as a prerequisite for wider structural change, or, as in the romantic psychedelic movement in which Anger was associated, as a qualifier for change in itself. This particular ‘politics of consciousness’ of the Sixties as propagated by a spiritually inflected, romantic anarchist strain in post-­war US society was based upon the utopian belief that the transformation of individual consciousness was a method of facilitating widespread revolution. I see this aspiration as a utopian expression of the refrain ‘the personal is political’ that came to popular fruition in the Sixties, in which the consideration of one’s own life was a political concern in itself. In this politics of consciousness, the Sixties countercultural paradigm saw the idealised forms of subjectivity produced by post-war US capitalism as serial, standardised, and crucially, ‘inauthentic’; as something to be overcome, with aesthetic production playing a fundamental role in this process. I argue that Anger’s Sixties work must be read in much wider relation to the socio-­political discourses of its time than has been previously afforded in what little critical writing on Anger’s work that exists to date.

description: Cockroaches are urban pests that are very difficult to control. Using repellents is a green, safe and effective strategy for their control. In order to find novel cockroach repellents, the repellent activity of 45 bridged-ring terpenoid derivatives synthesized from β-pinene against Blattella germanica was tested. The relationship between the molecular structure of these bridged-ring terpenoid derivatives and their repellent activity against Blattella germanica was also analysed. The results show that some of the bridged-ring terpenoid derivatives exhibit good repellent activity against Blattella germanica, and six compounds (RR = 60.44–87.32%) show higher repellent activity against Blattella germanica than DEET (RR = 54.77%), making them promising for development as new cockroach repellents. Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) analysis revealed that the HOMO-1 energy, Kier and Hall index (order 2), Balaban index, and relative positive charged surface area of bridged-ring terpenoid derivatives have effects on repellent activity against Blattella germanica. The present study may provide a theoretical basis for the high-value use of β-pinene and can be helpful to the development of novel repellents against Blattella germanica.

description: Histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) is a verified biomolecular target associated with diverse diseases including cancer. Though several HDAC inhibitors emerged effective against such diseases, no selective HDAC8 inhibitor is approved to date. Therefore, the development of potent HDAC8-selective inhibitors is inevitable to combat such diseases. Here, some benzothiazine-derived HDAC8 inhibitors were considered for a comparative QSAR analysis which may elucidate the prime structural components responsible for modulating their efficacy. Several outcomes from these diverse modelling techniques justified one another and thus validated each other. The ligand-based pharmacophore modelling study identified ring aromatic, positive ionizable, and hydrophobic features as essential structural attributes for HDAC8 inhibition. Besides, MLR, HQSAR and field-based 3D-QSAR studies signified the utility of the positive ionizable and hydrophobic features for potent HDAC8 inhibition. Again, the field-based 3D-QSAR study provided useful insight regarding the substitution in the fused phenyl ring. Moreover, the current observations also validated the previously reported molecular docking observations. Based on the outcomes, some new molecules were designed and predicted. Therefore, this comparative structural analysis of these HDAC8 inhibitors will surely assist in the development of potent HDAC8 inhibitors as promising anticancer therapeutics in the future.
