title: Recreation, self-therapy and addiction
title: discursive constructions of drinking to intoxication in focus group talk
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Pena, Ester
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University

description: Binge drinking among young people in Australia is an “epidemic” (Rudd, 2008 p 1). That is the Australian federal government’s official stance, although similar constructions of youth alcohol consumption as pathological are common in other countries. Such constructions are undoubtedly based on research such as that which suggests that binge drinking tends to be the norm among Australian youth (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2006). Alongside pathological constructions, contradictory societal messages linking drinking with pleasure and hedonism are often juxtaposed (Measham & Brain, 2005; O’Malley & Valverde, 2004: Szmigin et al., 2008). Whilst it is clear that societal messages regarding drinking are contradictory, what is unclear is how drinkers themselves construct their consumption. In this study, eight focus groups were conducted with 30 young people to uncover some possible interpretative repertoires that drinkers themselves use to construct personal behaviour that experts might label “binge drinking” or drinking to intoxication (DTI). Three main interpretative repertoires were recurringly used by participants. These were labelled: Recreation, Self-Therapy and Addiction. Each repertoire was examined using the principles of Discursive Psychology (Edwards & Potter, 2001) to illustrate its deployment and use, the alternatives it was constructed against, as well as the problems that it could present and their resolution. The repertoire of recreation allowed the construction of DTI as a pleasurable pastime. The repertoire of self-therapy facilitated the construction of DTI as a response to a stressful event. Lastly, the repertoire of addiction positioned repeated DTI as symptomatic of what May (2001) has called a “hypothesised pathological mechanism” (p. 385). Comparisons with other literature indicate that similar constructions are often used to construct involvement with practices that may be deemed “risky” such as smoking and self-injecting. These findings have important implications for the communication of public health messages to young people.

description: Multi-layered graphene and graphene oxide have been used as reinforcements in nanodevices and nanocomposites due to their extraordinary mechanical and thermal properties. However, compared to graphene, graphene oxide has a lower Young’s modulus and lower thermal conductivity. Nanodevices and nanocomposites based on multi-layered graphene and graphene oxide require different mechanical properties and thermal conductivity. This study employed molecular dynamics simulation to investigate 10 models of multi-layered graphene and graphene oxide (in the form of different layer arrangements) in single, double, and triple layers. The results showed that an increase in the number of graphene oxide layers leads to irregularities in the nanosheets, resulting in decreased thermal conductivity (by 64.4%) of the nanosheets decreases. Furthermore, the greater number of graphene layers in multi-layer nanosheets resulted in an increase in Young’s modulus (by 79.3%) and tensile strength (by 73.7%). Moreover, the arrangement of graphene and graphene oxide is a crucial factor that can significantly impact the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of the models. Moreover, an increase in temperature can lead to a decrease in Young’s modulus of multilayered nanosheets. Increasing the number and size of graphene layers enhances both the ultimate tensile strength and the critical energy release rate.

description: By dispersive models of fluid mechanics we are referring to the Euler-Lagrange equations for the constrained Hamilton action functional where the internal energy depends on high order derivatives of unknowns. The mass conservation law is considered as a constraint. The corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations include, in particular, the van der Waals--Korteweg model of capillary fluids, the model of fluids containing small gas bubbles and the model describing long free-surface gravity waves. We obtain new conservation laws generalizing the helicity conservation for classical barotropic fluids.

title: Improving health promotion in indigenous primary health care

titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Percival, Nicole
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University

description: Indigenous primary health care (PHC) centres across Australia are achieving improvements in the quality of systems, processes and outcomes in clinical health care by applying a continuous quality improvement (CQI) approach known as Audit and Best Practice for Chronic Disease (ABCD). Using mixed methods and drawing on principles of participatory action research, this thesis investigates the feasibility of the ABCD CQI approach in health promotion. This thesis addresses a series of incremental and interconnected research objectives to: (1) develop quality indicators and audit tools in health promotion; describe and assess (2) the scope and quality of health promotion activities; and (3) the status of health centre system support for health promotion; and (4) determine the impact of the CQI approach on health promotion over two years. Indicators were developed and used to determine adherence to evidence-based practice and level of health centre system support for health promotion. Baseline findings showed significant evidence-practice gaps in the quality of health promotion activities and sub-optimal systems development for supporting health promotion. Following the introduction of the CQI approach, there were improvements in some aspects of health centre systems and in the quality of health promotion activities. These findings demonstrate that the ABCD CQI approach is both acceptable and feasible in health promotion. This study identified a number of constraints that may inhibit further improvements in health promotion. Sustained improvements in health promotion quality may be achieved by specifically addressing system barriers in organisational and policy environments and through more effective engagement of management, community people and other organisations in the quality improvement process. Future research should include an examination of how CQI in health promotion can be transferred to other settings and the requirements to support implementation in routine practice.

Principle of virtual action in continuum mechanics

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Classical Physics (physics.class-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present the principle of virtual action as a foundation of continuum mechanics. Used mainly in relativity, the method has a useful application in classical mechanics and places the notion of action as the basic concept of dynamics. The principle is an extension of virtual work to space-time. It extends the efforts made by d'Alembert and Lagrange. Unlike the classical case of equilibrium, the principle of virtual action becomes a postulate for the formulation of models in dynamics. It allows to use a minimal set of clear conjectures and is extended to the case of media with dissipation; it can be used for more complex systems.
Data Set for Timing and rate of nitrogen fertilization influence maize yield and nitrogen use efficiency

description: Timing and rate of nitrogen (N) fertilizer application can influence maize (Zea mays L.) grain yield, N uptake, and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) parameters, but results have been inconsistent across the upper Midwest. This study compared single (fall and preplant) and split applications of differing N rates for maize under irrigated conditions on loamy sand at Becker, MN and under rainfed conditions on loam and clay loam soils at Lamberton, MN and Waseca, MN, respectively, in 2014 to 2016. Fall and preplant applications of N were applied at recommended and 125% of recommended rates (RN) according to University of Minnesota guidelines. Split-application treatments included a two-way (Sp, applied at 75% and 100% of RN) and a three-way split (TSp applied at 50%, 75%, and 100% of RN), with the total N rate equally split among application times. At Becker, maize grain yield with TSp was 12.6 to 15.7 Mg ha-1 among years and significantly greater than that with fall or preplant treatments. The TSp treatment also improved agronomic efficiency (AE) and recovery efficiency (RE) by an average of 30% over fall or preplant treatments. At Lamberton, maize grain yield, AE and RE did not differ among treatments. However, TSp75 improved AE by 8.3 kg kg-1 while producing comparable yields to fall and preplant treatments. At Waseca, Sp or TSp improved grain yield and AE compared with fall treatments. These results suggest that split applications of N can increase maize grain yield, AE, and RE on irrigated coarse-textured soils and applying N fertilizer near planting or as a split application can improve N management on non-irrigated clay loam soils.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: This thesis traces the journey I took from first hearing the sound of the yiḏaki (didgeridoo) in Turkey, to my collaborative work with a group of Gupapuyŋu families developing a website to represent some aspects of their traditional knowledge and practice. The Gupapuyŋu are a group of Northeast Arnhem Land Australian Aboriginal (Yolŋu) people. Through my studies at Charles Darwin University, I met the Yolŋu lecturer, Waymamba Gaykamaŋu, a Gupapuyŋu elder, and later her family at the Garma Festival. I was invited to travel to Miliŋinbi, the home of many senior Gupapuyŋu Yolŋu. The Gupapuyŋu elders were concerned about the intergenerational succession of their traditional knowledge (TK) and we decided to work together to make a website. After tracing my journey to Miliŋ inbi in Chapter 1, in Chapter 2 I review two areas of research which came to inform my approach to the task: the anthropological literature on Yolŋu (and Gupapuyŋu) life and culture, and the uses of digital technology for knowledge work. Chapter 3 details the process of our work together, particularly the negotiations which had to be undertaken and the decision making processes. Chapter 4 gives details of the website and how the different website sections were negotiated as to structure and content, and how it finally came together. In Chapter 5, I reflect upon what I learnt about the Gupapuyŋu people and their significant others, as well as the provisional and performative nature of Gupapuyŋu knowledge. At the same time, my Gupapuyŋu family was learning with me, about the problems and the possibilities of digital technology in their ongoing knowledge work. In conclusion I reflect upon what we have learnt together, the future, and my ongoing commitment to the project.

description: The adoption of high-density electrode systems for human-machine interfaces in real-life applications has been impeded by practical and technical challenges, including noise interference, motion artifacts and the lack of compact electrode interfaces. To overcome some of these challenges, we introduce a wearable and stretchable electromyography (EMG) array, and present its design, fabrication methodology, characterisation, and comprehensive evaluation. Our proposed solution comprises dry-electrodes on flexible printed circuit board (PCB) substrates, eliminating the need for time-consuming skin preparation. The proposed fabrication method allows the manufacturing of stretchable sleeves, with consistent and standardised coverage across subjects. We thoroughly tested our developed prototype, evaluating its potential for application in both research and real-world environments. The results of our study showed that the developed stretchable array matches or outperforms traditional EMG grids and holds promise in furthering the real-world translation of high-density EMG for human-machine interfaces.

description: Objectives: Metabolic Bariatric Surgery (MBS) is a critical intervention for patients living with obesity and related health issues. Accurate classification and prediction of patient outcomes are vital for optimizing treatment strategies. This study presents a novel machine learning approach to classify patients in the context of metabolic bariatric surgery, providing insights into the efficacy of different models and variable types. Methods: Various machine learning models, including GaussianNB, ComplementNB, KNN, Decision Tree, KNN with RandomOverSampler, and KNN with SMOTE, were applied to a dataset of 73 patients. The dataset, comprising psychometric, socioeconomic, and analytical variables, was analyzed to determine the most efficient predictive model. The study also explored the impact of different variable groupings and oversampling techniques. Results: Experimental results indicate average accuracy values as high as 66.7% for the best model. Enhanced versions of KNN and Decision Tree, along with variations of KNN such as RandomOverSampler and SMOTE, yielded the best results. Conclusions: The study unveils a promising avenue for classifying patients in the realm of metabolic bariatric surgery. The results underscore the importance of selecting appropriate variables and employing diverse approaches to achieve optimal performance. The developed system holds potential as a tool to assist healthcare professionals in decision-making, thereby enhancing metabolic bariatric surgery outcomes. These findings lay the groundwork for future collaboration between hospitals and healthcare entities to improve patient care through the utilization of machine learning algorithms. Moreover, the findings suggest room for improvement, potentially achievable with a larger dataset and careful parameter tuning.

description: The Gumbel trick is a method to sample from a discrete probability distribution, or to estimate its normalizing partition function. The method re- lies on repeatedly applying a random perturbation to the distribution in a particular way, each time solving for the most likely configuration. We derive an entire family of related methods, of which the Gumbel trick is one member, and show that the new methods have superior properties in several settings with minimal additional computational cost. In particular, for the Gumbel trick to yield computational benefits for discrete graphical models, Gumbel perturbations on all configurations are typically replaced with so- called low-rank perturbations. We show how a subfamily of our new methods adapts to this set- ting, proving new upper and lower bounds on the log partition function and deriving a family of sequential samplers for the Gibbs distribution. Finally, we balance the discussion by showing how the simpler analytical form of the Gumbel trick enables additional theoretical results.

description: Inverse kinematics is an important and challenging problem in the operation of industrial manipulators. This study proposes a simple inverse kinematics calculation scheme for an industrial serial manipulator. The proposed technique can calculate appropriate values of the joint variables to realize the desired end-effector position and orientation while considering the motion costs of each joint. Two scalar functions are defined for the joint variables: one is to evaluate the end-effector position and orientation, whereas the other is to evaluate the motion efficiency of the joints. By combining the two scalar functions, the inverse kinematics calculation of the manipulator is formulated as a numerical optimization problem. Furthermore, a simple algorithm for solving the inverse kinematics via the aforementioned optimization is constructed on the basis of the simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation with a norm-limited update vector (NLSPSA). The proposed scheme considers not only the accuracy of the position and orientation of the end-effector but also the efficiency of the robot movement. Therefore, it yields a practical result of the inverse problem. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is simple and easy to implement owing to the high calculation efficiency of NLSPSA. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through numerical examples using a redundant manipulator.

description: This paper aims to provide differentiated security protection for infotainment data communication in Internet-of-Vehicle (IoV) networks. The IoV is a network of vehicles that uses various sensors, software, built-in hardware, and communication technologies to enable information exchange between pedestrians, cars, and urban infrastructure. Negligence on the security of infotainment data communication in IoV networks can unintentionally open an easy access point for social engineering attacks. The attacker can spread false information about traffic conditions, mislead drivers in their directions, and interfere with traffic management. Such attacks can also cause distractions to the driver, which has a potential implication for the safety of driving. The existing literature on IoV communication and network security focuses mainly on generic solutions. In a heterogeneous communication network where different types of communication coexist, we can improve the efficiency of security solutions by considering the different security and efficiency requirements of data communications. Hence, we propose a differentiated security mechanism for protecting infotainment data communication in IoV networks. In particular, we first classify data communication in the IoV network, examine the security focus of each data communication, and then develop a differentiated security architecture to provide security protection on a file-to-file basis. Our architecture leverages Named Data Networking (NDN) so that infotainment files can be efficiently circulated throughout the network where any node can own a copy of the file, thus improving the hit ratio for user file requests. In addition, we propose a time-sensitive Key-Policy Attribute-Based Encryption (KP-ABE) scheme for sharing subscription-based infotainment data...

description: Therapeutics Letter 12 focusses on the optimal management of asthma in the primary care setting. Conclusions: regular inhaled corticosteroids are the main therapy in asthmatic patients with frequent symptoms or exacerbations. Use inhaled b2-agonists for intermittent relief or breakthrough symptoms only. For all treatments always have an objective goal and measure of efficacy and titrate the dose to identify the lowest dose that will achieve that goal.
Development of a full-Scale approach to predict overlay reflective crack

description: Resurfacing a moderately deteriorated Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement with asphalt concrete (AC) layers is considered an efficient rehabilitation practice. However, reflective cracks may develop shortly after resurfacing because of discontinuities (e.g. joints and cracks) in existing PCC pavement. In this paper, a new accelerated full-scale testing approach was developed to study reflective crack growth in AC overlays. Two hydraulic actuators were used to simulate a moving dual-tire assembly with a loading rate of more than five-thousand-wheel passes per hour. A load cycle consists of three steps, simulating a tire approaching, moving across, and leaving a PCC discontinuity. Experiments were conducted to compare the reflective crack behaviour of two overlay configurations. Both test sections were fully cracked in less than an hour. The initiation and propagation of reflective cracks were explicitly documented using crack detectors in conjunction with a camera. The proposed full-scale testing protocol offers a repeatable and efficient approach to systematically investigate the effects of various overlay configurations, thus enabling the identification of optimal design against reflective cracking.

Transforming the rentier state: prospects for Saudi Arabia: a small case study of rentier state economic diversification and its effects with application to Saudi Arabia’s vision 2030
Creators: name: Aljumie, Mohammed
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This research project sought to determine, to the extent feasible prior to full implementation of the elements of Saudi Vision 2030, the degree to which a strategy for economic diversification including major legal, regulatory and governmental activities and cultural shifts is likely to achieve its fundamental goals of economic diversification and an end to reliance on rentier state resources. Saudi Vision 2030 depicts a comprehensive approach to achieving economic diversification while diminishing the Kingdom’s reliance on oil and gas sector revenues. The researcher compared the possible impact of diversification via Saudi Vision 2030 to case studies of similar diversification in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the UAE. The comparison identified the specific development initiatives undertaken by the five target states and their known economic impacts, and then further considered whether similar elements or proposals of Saudi Vision 2030 might achieve similar ends. Such a study has the potential to offer insight into the ultimate viability of Saudi Vision 2030, particularly in light of the type of socio-cultural and economic changes that it will introduce in a country noted for its conservative, traditional attachment to long-standing norms, values, and morals. Further, given the importance of public understanding and acceptance of new governmental policies in any country, the study highlighted the degree to which Saudi Vision 2030’s emphasis on acquiring more foreign direct investment and, consequently, more foreign nationals living and working in the Kingdom, will resonate with its public, as well as any synergies between this plan for economic diversification and efforts undertaken elsewhere in the region. The study used the Small N case study methodology in developing comparisons of the economic diversification efforts of the target countries with the plans articulated in Saudi Vision 2030, taking into consideration the impact of recent world and regional events and assessing their likely impact upon full implementation of Saudi Vision 2030.
