Political action of the Indians of British Columbia
Creators: name: Kopas, Leslie Clifford
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis traces the development of political action by the Indians of British Columbia. The Europeans who occupied British Columbia in the nineteenth century placed the natives under a colonial style of administration. Without citizenship or representation in the federal or provincial government for many years, the Indians tried to present their grievances to the government mainly through protest organizations. The effectiveness of Indian protest organizations was weakened by the inability of the natives to unite in one provincial association. The diversity of cultural, religious, and economic factors in the Indian population caused persistent divisiveness. Regional political organizations were formed to resolve local problems. Finally, the prospect of the removal of the Indian Act provided a catalyst for the formation of a single provincial Indian political organization.

Factors affecting the aquatic macroinvertebrate (EPT) fauna at Nam Nao National Park, Thailand
Creators: name: Tanusilp, V
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Little is known about the invertebrate communities, which inhabit the freshwater streams of northeastern Thailand. This study has investigated the macroinvertebrate assemblages, which live in several forest streams in the popular Nam Nao National Park located in the headwaters of several important northeastern rivers. The distribution and relative abundance of EPT taxa (orders Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera) was investigated in relation to this environmental variability. The main purpose was to document the natural variation in these communities as a baseline against which to recognize detrimental impacts which may arise from increasing visitor pressure on the National Park. This was approached via three research questions: Do taxa occupy certain substrates preferentially at different times of the year? Does taxa richness differ in various parts of the streams (pools, riffles and runs)? and what is the nature of the small scale variation in close proximity to a pre-existing tourist facility? The streams, located in a monsoonal climate, were found to be highly variable in terms of monthly flows, substrates and other physico-environmental factors. The invertebrate fauna was sampled by Surber sampling, and was found to be very rich. It was dominated by mayflies and caddisflies, but had a low diversity of stoneflies. Responses to environmental factors differed at order, family and genus level. Some taxa were relatively insensitive to natural changes, others were sensitive at some times and at some sites, whereas others displayed clear preferences for certain habitat factors all year. Communities were recognized by TWINSPAN analysis and ordination methods. The project was successful in recognizing certain taxa, which were indicators for various environments at certain times of the year. A useful baseline dataset has been achieved which can be used in future as a benchmark for pristine water conditions in the National Park.

description: We estimate the effects of viscosity on the phase space distribution appearing in the Cooper-Frye formula within the framework of the Grad's fourteen moment method and find that there are non-trivialities in the discussion of a multi-component system. We calculate the viscous corrections of particle spectra and elliptic flow coefficients from the distortion of the distribution using the flow and the hypersurface taken from a (3+1)-dimensional ideal hydrodynamic simulation. We see that the bulk viscosity have visible effects on particle spectra. The results suggest we should treat both shear and bulk viscosity carefully when constraining the transport coefficients from experimental data.

Wave-induced motions on high Froude number slender twin-hull vessels
Creators: name: Watson, NL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: A study of the wave-induced motions experienced by slender twin-hull vessels was conducted through experimental measurements and numerical computation. Particular attention was required in the analysis of measured data for comparison with the predicted motions. The difficulties of analysing measured data from a vessel that had encountered sea waves of a random nature were addressed by grouping the data into subsets based on primary wave direction, vessel speed, and hull configuration. The primary wave direction was determined by considering the motions of the vessel as for a directional wave buoy. The data acquisition system consisted of hardware and software that was developed and assembled on two twin-hull full-scale vessels for periods of up to 12 months each. Designed to operate mostly unsupervised whilst collecting data in remote locations, a data recording sequence was initiated through a preset trigger level from a motion sensor. In the subsequent analysis, transfer functions were obtained from the measured data based on the sorted data subsets. Numerical modelling of the vessels in head sea waves used an existing strip theory code that defined the hull as sectional boundary elements that contributed to solving a Green function problem for the free surface and sectional motion in the time domain. A modification to the code allowed the effects of motion control surfaces on the motion transfer functions to be determined through selection of appropriate gain setting that minimised the average vertical hull accelerations. With the damping effect of control surfaces not scaling linearly with wave height, the controls were modelled to minimise the hull average vertical acceleration in a 2.5 metre Bretschneider wave spectrum of 7 second average period. The inclusion of control surfaces in the motion computation combined with non-linear wave height effects in some instances greatly improved the correlation between the numerical and measured motion transfer functions by reducing the frequency of maximum response. The accelerations and motion sickness incidence (MSI) distributions derived through computations on an 86 metre vessel indicate the presence of high accelerations that are not fully counteracted by a motion control system of practicable size. Future advances in numerical prediction codes may require verification with detailed full-scale measurements to ensure the scale effects are adequately considered. Fullscale measurements should therefore constitute part of a complete testing and analysis program for motions, but due to the high cost of these trials the measurements required for analysis may best be obtained from data supplied from on board monitoring systems during regular service operations.

description: Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare and life-threatening thrombotic microangiopathy. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of caplacizumab in iTTP. However, the effect on different populations remains controversial. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness and safety of caplacizumab for treating iTTP. We searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for studies until 24 March 2023. Participants were hospitalized patients with iTTP. Interventions included caplacizumab versus placebo or standard of care (SOC). Outcomes assessed included all-cause mortality, exacerbation, relapse, refractory, time-to-platelet-count-recovery, length of TPE and hospital stay, bleeding, and thrombosis. A total of 1119 patients from eight studies were subjected to meta-analysis. The results of the meta-analysis showed that iTTP patients treated with caplacizumab achieved a reduction in mortality (RR 0.38, 95% CI: 0.19–0.75), exacerbation (RR 0.29, 95% CI: 0.14–0.61) and refractory (RR 0.50, 95% CI: 0.31–0.81). Besides, adding caplacizumab to SOC was associated with a shorten time-to-platelet-count-recovery (MD − 2.31, 95% CI: −3.86 to −0.77) and length of TPE (MD − 4.61, 95% CI: −6.20 to −3.02). In terms of safety, the bleeding rate was higher in the caplacizumab group (RR 1.57, 95% CI: 1.21–2.02), while there was no significant difference in hospital stay and thrombosis between the two groups. Caplacizumab is an effective treatment for patients with iTTP, especially in reducing all-cause mortality, exacerbations, refractoriness, and the time-to-platelet-count-recovery. Although the risk of bleeding may be increased, it is generally modest and manageable.

description: We investigate the high-energy neutrino emission expected from newly born magnetars surrounded by their stellar ejecta. Protons might be accelerated up to 0.1-100 EeV energies possibly by, e.g., the wave dissipation in the winds, leading to hadronic interactions in the stellar ejecta. The resulting PeV-EeV neutrinos can be detected by IceCube/KM3Net with a typical peak time scale of a few days after the birth of magnetars, making the characteristic soft-hard-soft behavior. Detections would be important as a clue to the formation mechanism of magnetars, although there are ambiguities coming from uncertainties of several parameters such as velocity of the ejecta. Non-detections would also lead to useful constraints on the scenario.

Radiation reaction and renormalization via conservation laws of the Poincare group

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider the self-action problem in classical electrodynamics of a point-like charge arbitrarily moving in flat space-time of four or six dimensions. A consistent regularization procedure is proposed which exploits the symmetry properties of the theory. The energy-momentum and angular momentum balance equations allow us to derive the radiation reaction forces in both 4D and 6D. It is shown that a point-like source in 6D possesses an internal angular momentum with magnitude which is proportional to the square of acceleration. 6D action functional contains, apart from usual "bare" mass, an additional renormalization constant which corresponds to the curvature of the world line (i.e. to the magnitude of internal angular momentum of "bare" particle). It is demonstrated that the {\it Poincaré-invariant} six-dimensional electrodynamics is renormalizable theory.

An analysis of the real property assessments and taxes in British Columbia
Creators: name: Tomko, Wayne Leslie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The Real Property Tax requires a major outlay of funds by most property and non-property owners. Property owners are directly affected by the tax, in that they pay the taxes to the taxing authorities, while the non-property owners are indirectly affected as the property tax paid by the owners is reflected in the rents which the non-property owners pay. Because of the magnitude of the property tax as a proportion of the property owners net income or disposable income, the individuals right or obligation of an equal portion of the tax burden should be upheld. The portion of the total tax burden for which a property taxpayer is responsible, is determined by the "actual value" of his real property, subject to legislative exemptions and reliefs. To ascertain the degree of the equality of the tax burden a sample of 1632 properties was obtained consisting of seven different land uses from eight-municipalities located within the Greater Vancouver area. For each property in the sample the adjusted selling price, assessed value of land and improvements for municipal and school purposes, and the net taxes payable were obtained. To furnish the reader with some insight as to the causes of possible tax inequalities between municipalities, land uses, or price categories within municipalities, calculations measuring the degree of assessment uniformity and equality were executed. The findings of this thesis give evidence that the tax burden between municipalities, land uses and price categories within municipalities are not equally distributed as the concept of equality was defined. Further, it was discovered that these inequalities were, in part, due to the occurrance of unacceptable levels of assessment inequality and ununiformity.

description: Copper ore at Mount Lyell occurs in quartz chlorite and quartz sericite schists derived from both Cambrian and Ordovician sediments. Mineralisation is centred at points of intersection of the longitudinal, deep-seated Lyell Shear, and cross-cutting E-W and NW faults. Within the mine area the Lyell Shear is expressed at and near the surface as a discontinuous, overturned, asymmetrical syncline with richer ore in the axial and the flat east limb positions, and with lower grade ore in the steep west limb. As yet by no means all of the flat east limb positions have been prospected, so that the field holds an exploration potential of more than ordinary interest.

The effectiveness of the Office for Standards in Education (OFSTED) inspection process in England as an accountability mechanism and its influence upon whole school improvement in English maintained schools
Creators: name: Vann, BJ
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The research questions addressed in this thesis are: How effective is the OFSTED process as an accountability mechanism? And, does whole school inspection lead to school improvement? The literature of school effectiveness and school improvement is reviewed followed by an outline of the evidence of school improvement offered by OFSTED from 1996 as a context for the inspection outcomes and subsequent improvement or not, in four case study schools. An attempt is made to link the OFSTED mantra of \Improvement through Inspection\" to the inspection process as experienced by the schools in the study. In addition a brief context is provided that outlines the systemic change processes and accountability processes that were prevalent in the education systems of the largely English-speaking world at the time of OFSTED's inception and more recently. A comparison is made between OFSTED and the international examples before detailing the research on OFSTED's effectiveness and the government response. The ethnographic methodology used is justified aware of the potential difficulties attached where the researcher is also the headteacher of one of the four case study schools. Results from the case studies allow discussion of the differences in approach from the headteachers to the inspection process and the possible consequences of their actions. Other issues arising from the case studies include: the relevance of the timing of the inspections within the evolution of the OFSTED process; the situation of the schools at the time of their inspections; the relationships between stakeholders within the schools particularly the apparent marginalisation of the governors from the process; the communities' perceptions of the schools and the personal disposition of the headteachers towards the OFSTED process. Inconsistencies in the OFSTED process as experienced by the study schools were found to include the lack of credibility given to the OFSTED process by some teachers and senior staff in the schools and the manner in which the schools acknowledged the validity of the inspection judgements. The thesis concludes by using the research evidence from this study to pose tentative conclusions about how effective the OFSTED inspection is as an accountability process and whether whole school inspection leads to school improvement. It reviews the constraints and limitations of the evidence and indicates areas for further research."
Identification of fungi by the fluorescent antibody technique

description: The fluorescent antibody technique was investigated as a means of facilitating the recognition and identification of the fungal components of a western red cedar (Thuja plicata Donn) heartwood flora in situ. Fungi isolated from the heartwood were grown in bulk and prepared for two different injection trials. In one trial the antigen was the particulate matter of the cell that could be centrifuged into a pellet after the hyphae were destroyed by a tissue grinder. In the second trial the hyphae were ground up and ultrasonically disintegrated. Only the cytoplasm and small wall fragments were retained for injection. After antisera collection the indirect staining method was employed. Unlabeled specific antiserum was layered over the antigen, allowed to incubate and washed off before fluorescent sheep anti-rabbit globulin was applied to form the final layer. All attempts to detect specific antibodies to the fungal antigens failed. This was probably due to not using antigens rich enough in protein. Successful production of precipitating antibodies to fungal antigens has been shown by other workers to be more likely when the antigen contains greater than 10 milligrams of protein per milliliter of antigen solution. It has also been found that in some cases fresh antigen must be prepared for each diffusion test and injection as it can't be preserved even at -20°C. It is hoped that if fresh, high protein antigen were to be used this study could be successfully completed.

Analysis of Chinese financial markets
Creators: name: Yan, YH
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This thesis comprises a series of four inter-related essays on the efficiency of Chinese financial markets, and on incorporating efficient markets into a small macroeconomic model. The first essay (Chapter 2) examines the extent of integration of the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets to determine which of these provides the better representation of share market behaviour in China. The preferred one is applied throughout the thesis. A test for cointegration of the Shanghai share price index with seven other international indices is then conducted. The increased extent of the integration between the representative index and seven selected international indices indicates increasing efficiency in the overall Chinese share market through time, and leads to the analytical focus of the second essay (Chapter 3). This focus involves the convergence of share prices of firms cross-listed on the Shanghai and Hong Kong exchanges in terms of the law of one price. The results indicate that, in recent times, firm-level share prices converge to the law of one price. The investigation of financial market integration is then extended to the bond market in the third essay (Chapter 4) where exchange rate convergence is examined using the Svensson model of the term structure of interest rate differentials. The mean reversion property of the exchange rate, as a feature of the Svensson model, is found in Chinese and US bond markets and provides complementary evidence of recent integration of Chinese financial markets. The results of the first three essays establish evidence of well-integrated financial markets in China, setting the scene for explaining the role of an efficient financial market in influencing output under a fixed exchange rate. In the final essay (Chapter 5), a model is developed, for this purpose involving the integration of efficient financial markets into an open-economy framework with perfect capital mobility, perfect foresight, and a fixed exchange rate. The dynamic behaviour of output, the exchange rate and the stock price in response to an unanticipated demand shock are characterised and validated by the simulated scenario of a negative demand shock occurring in China in 1997. The model is designed to capture the key features of the major dynamic forces shaping the fixed exchange rate regime and the major financial linkages governing the response of the economy. Articulation of asset market dynamics for a fixed exchange rate regime represents a major contribution of the thesis.
