When narrative brands end : The impact of narrative closure and consumption sociality on loss accomodation
Creators: name: Russell, Cristel Antonia
name: Schau, Hope Jensen
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This research emically documents consumers’ experience of the end of a favorite television series. Anchored in the domain of evolving narrative brands, of which TV series are an archetypal example, this work draws from narrative theory, brand relationship theory and basic research on interpersonal loss to document the processes of loss accommodation. We triangulate across data sources and methods (extended participant observation, long interview and online forum analysis) to unfold the processes of loss accommodation triggered by brand discontinuation. Accommodation processes and post-withdrawal relationship trajectories depend upon the nature and closural force of the narrative inherent to the brand but also the sociality that surrounds its consumption. Consumption sociality allows access to transitive and connective resources that facilitate the processes of accommodation during critical junctures in consumer-brand relationships.
title: The Best Practicable Environmental Option for Paper Waste Management in Geographically Isolated Communities
Creators: name: Hanan, Deirdre Beauclerc
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2012

description: Waste management generally, and paper waste specifically, are important issues. The problems finding suitable landfill sites and the legislative and environmental needs for alternatives to landfill make research into this field important. Isolated communities have specific issues related to the treatment of waste. Available sites for landfill are limited, the community is often economically dependent on tourism and local alternatives to landfill are limited, whilst transport across the barrier is expensive. The aims of the research were to find the Best Practicable Environmental Option (BPEO) for paper waste management in isolated communities and to produce a tool that could be used by other areas to assess their own paper waste management practices. During this research, three geographically isolated areas were chosen as study areas and the financial, environmental and legislative aspects of the current household waste management systems were examined. A financial model was produced and used in the case study areas. The environmental emissions were modelled by the use of WRATE, a Life Cycle Analysis programme developed by the Environment Agency for England and Wales. The financial, legislative and environmental impacts social factors of the six scenarios were examined by a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis workshop consisting of residents from one of the case study areas. The conclusions of the research were that: • MCDA can be used to combine LCA, financial, legislative and social information to assist in determining BPEO for managing waste in isolated communities, • The use of the MCDA panel allowed the local community to be involved in the decision-making process, • Isolated communities have specific issues in regard to waste management, • The research tool was valuable in finding the most sustainable paper waste management solution for the area, • Local solutions are to be preferred financially, environmentally and socially although local or national taxes can distort the financial position.
title: Creating Hard-working, Responsible Parents: A New Labour Structure of Feeling?
Creators: name: Gambles, Richenda
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2011

description: This thesis uses and extends Raymond Williams' (1961; 1977) structure of feeling approach to locate a mood about parenting during the New Labour years, and to consider what this approach can reveal about the presence, power and position of policy in parents' lives. It adapts the structure of feeling approach in two particular ways: by including interviews alongside policy and popular cultural sources; and by extending the notion of feeling to include personal feelings and their interaction with the wider public mood. These aclaptions were particularly relevant for a subject as personal as parenting, and for a cultural context which placed so much attention on the personal and personal responsibilities for monitoring and supervising the self (Giddens, 1991; Rose, 1999). In locating and analysing the structure of feeling, the thesis draws on the concepts of ideological dilemmas and interpretative repertoires which have been described as a range of competing ideologies that make up beliefs, values, practices and wisdoms of particular cultures, and a range of different rhetorical resources people have available to them to discuss and make sense of the dilemmas (Billig, 2001; Edley, 2001). In identifying three particular dilemmas - about the genclered nature of parenting, expertise about parenting, and work in the context of parenting - the thesis locates dominant and alternative ideas about parenting which point to a structure of feeling that is full of contestation which is managed through discourses of 'choice' and 'what works'. The thesis explores the personal responsibilities placed on parents for managing these dilemmas and the strategies they deploy to do this, and reveals that these strategies can vary according to parents' personal dispositions but also their social positionings. This thesis demonstrates the usefulness and significance of the structure of feeling approach for locating and understanding social inequalities and their (lack of) transformation in a cultural era emphasising the personal and personal responsibility.

description: The emergence of nuclear collectivity near doubly-magic $^{132}$Sn was explored along the stable, even-even $^{124-130}$Te isotopes. Preliminary measurements of the $B(E2;4^{+}_{1}\rightarrow2^{+}_{1})$ transition strengths are reported from Coulomb excitation experiments primarily aimed at measuring the $g$ factors of the $4^{+}_{1}$ states. Isotopically enriched Te targets were excited by 198-205 MeV $^{58}$Ni beams. A comparison of transition strengths obtained is made to large-scale shell-model calculations with successes and limitations discussed.

description: Molecule-electrode interfaces in molecular electronic junctions are prone to chemical reactions, structural changes, and localized heating effects caused by electric current. These can be exploited for device functionality or may be degrading processes that limit performance and device lifetime. We develop a nonequilibrium Green's function based transport theory in which the central region atoms and, more importantly, atoms on molecule-electrode interfaces are allowed to move. The separation of time-scales of slow nuclear motion and fast electronic dynamics enables the algebraic solution of the Kadanoff-Baym equations in the Wigner space. As a result, analytical expressions for dynamical corrections to the adiabatically computed Green's functions are produced. These dynamical corrections depend not only on the instantaneous molecular geometry but also on the nuclear velocities. To make the theoretical approach fully self-consistent, the same time-separation approach is used to develop expressions for the adiabatic, dissipative, and stochastic components of current-induced forces in terms of adiabatic Green's functions. Using these current induced forces, the equation of motion for the nuclear degrees of freedom is cast in the form of a Langevin equation. The theory is applied to model molecular electronic junctions. We observe that the interplay between the value of the spring constant for the molecule-electrode chemical bond and electronic coupling strength to the corresponding electrode is critical for the appearance of structural instabilities and, consequently, telegraphic switching in the electric current. The range of model parameters is identified to observe structurally stable molecular junctions as well as various different kinds of current-induced telegraphic switching. The interfacial structural instabilities are also quantified based on current noise calculations.

description: The performance of water saving method of rice cultivation, system of rice intensification, was studied in rice cultivating fields of farmers in different mandals of Visakhapatnam District under well and tank irrigated red clayey loams. System of Rice Intensification (SRI) recorded more tillers (44.2 m-2), higher number of grains per panicle (252.2) and higher grain yield (6540.7 kg ha-1) compared to other farmers practicing flood irrigation, where the number of productive tillers were 22.4 m-2, grains per panicle were 195.0 and the yield recorded was 5420.3 kgha-1. On account of water saving too, SRI consumed less water (977.0 mm) compared to farmers practice (1332.0 mm). These advantages were reflected in B-C ratio which was higher in SRI (2.05) compared to farmers practice of rice cultivated under flood irrigation (1.72). Consistent results at different locations over a period of three years proved the advantage of SRI method over flood irrigation in terms of water saving as well as yield.

description: In the first half of the 20th century the Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky and the Blessed Bishop Hryhoriy Khomyshyn represented two ways of the development of the Uniate Church in Galicia, and later in Western Lesser Poland. The Metropolitan Archbishop from Lvov was obsessed with the idea to impose Catholicism in Russia. To achieve this he was ready to take the most desperate steps to merge the Uniate tradition with the Orthodox tradition, to reconcile with different political forces, which was recorded in his letter to the Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, Hitler, and Stalin. In order to get more support from the Ukrainian people, he completely ignored the spread of outrageous nationalism. Such position was strongly criticized by Hryhoriy Khomyshyn, the Bishop of Stanyslaviv, whose main purpose was to preserve the original Uniate rituals reflecting the integral unity with the Western Latin civilization. Being devoted to his beliefs, Greek Catholic Archbishop mercilessly condemned nationalism and de-Christian social life of the Ukrainian Uniate community. Those problems are the focus of attention of the book “Two Kingdoms” by Bishop Hryhoriy Khomyshyn, published in Ukrainian in 2016, translated into Polish in 2017.

description: The global objective of this study is to identify the agricultural techniques minimizing bark necrosis at Hevea brasiliensis. In a specific way, it is to find out the tapping panel the management technique which minimizes bark necrosis on six clones of rubber tree (IRCA 111, IRCA 109, IRCA 130, IRCA 18, GT 1, PR 107) in the southwest of Ivory Coast. To achieve these goals, the observations related to the number of trees attacked by bark necrosis and tapping panel dryness were made through the complete statement and the dry panel statement. The taking into account of tapping panel dryness in this study is justified by the fact that it may be related to bark necrosis. The importance of bark necrosis and the tapping panel dryness on the clones was checked respectively by the rate of necrosis and the length of the diseased tapping panel cut. It appeared at the end of this study that the management of tapping panels does not influence the development of bark necrosis and tapping panel dryness on the clones of Hevea brasiliensis under the d/4 6d/7 conditions of exploitation with modes of stimulation specific to each clone. This agricultural technique which was until suspected to amplify bark necrosis did not show any link with the disease. Indeed the clonal factor influences the rates of the disease. All the clones expressed both diseases, but at different levels. Some clones were shown less tolerant (IRCA 130) or tolerant (GT1) at the same time to both diseases. Tapping panel dryness and bark necrosis do not appear here according to the metabolism of the clones (active, intermediate or slow).

description: This study was focused on identifying medicinal plants species subject to bark harvesting in two forests of Southern Benin (Lama Protected Forest and Lokoli Swampy Forest). Ethnobotanical survey was conducted in nine surrounding villages of both forests. 261 survey participants of various socio-professional groups (traditional healers, bark collectors, farmers, and others) answered questionnaires. Collected data provided information about the species being debarked, diseases treated, the frequency and debarking methods applied as well as the people perception of their impact on the health of trees after debarking and the sustainable palliative debarking method applied or proposed by local population. A total of 70 medicinal species belonging to 26 families were identified of which 26 bark species were mostly used. The use of tree bak was locality and socio-prefessional groups dependents as well as ethny, age and sex. Species with highest used score were: Khaya senegalensis, Anogeissus leiocarpa, Dialium guineense, Adansonia digitata, Mangifera indica and Diospyros mespiliformis in Lama Forest and Nauclea diderrichii, Bridelia ferruginea, Syzygium owariense and Ficus trichopoda in Lokoli Forest. The most important human diseases recorded were stomach pains, dysentery and frotalen. According to socio-professional groups, Traditional healers were mostly related in tree bark used in spirituality while Collectors harvested mainly species involved in commercialization. Stakeholders with a negative impact on the resources seem to be collectors applying unsustainable debarking procedures such as tree logging or girdling. However, certain sustainable debarking method have been proposed such as cambium protecting (by collectors) and botanical gardens set up (by traditional healers).

description: This study used two-year partial panel household surveys 2008-2011, to assess household income and poverty trends and their respective drivers, specifically to determining to what extent landholdings have influenced these changes in rural Northern-Central Mozambique. The study concludes that: i) No significant income change in total net household income, poverty level, and landholdings has been observed between the two survey years and ii) Landholdings have significant income effect on income but poverty, suggesting that the income gain resulting from the observed landholdings is not enough to generate sufficient income transition above the poverty line, and iii) welfare was found to have infrastructural, demographic, technological dimensions, the policy implications from this study include:1) developing and promoting agricultural technologies, rural financial services and microcredit, risk coping strategies through establishment development of drought resistant crop varieties to acelerate land expansion, 2) facilitating access to input and output markets through improving and expanding infrastructures, 3) promoting small and medium enterprises with vocational training programs in employable skills, and 4) providing public services (e.g. education and employment) and investing in physical infrastructures (roads and transports).

description: Vegetation cover has acted as a source of carbon sinks and air purifier for a long period of time especially in developed cities thereby affecting the global climate change. The study was conducted to spatially estimate the Normalized Difference Vegetative Index (NDVI) which is a vegetation indicator for a period of 28 epoch years for Abuja from 1987 to 2014. The positive signatures of NDVI decrease from 2009 to 2014. Statistical analysis of the observed data samples at 95% confidence interval revealed that the changes observed in Year 2009 contributed most to the changes that was occurred in Year 2014.The modeled NDVI values for the year 2014 based on the regression analysis of the previous three years shows a significant agreement between the simulated values for year 2014 and the observed values. In general, there has been fast transformation of the vegetation cover to other land uses. The study reveals vegetation cover had reduced more significantly. It is also worthy to know that the model generated in this research can be used to predict future changes and trends in the vegetation cover. This will provide policy makers with useful information for the proper planning and design of the city and other capital cities over West Africa.

description: In "equation-free" multiscale computation a dynamic model is given at a fine, microscopic level; yet we believe that its coarse-grained, macroscopic dynamics can be described by closed equations involving only coarse variables. These variables are typically various low-order moments of the distributions evolved through the microscopic model. We consider the problem of integrating these unavailable equations by acting directly on kinetic Monte Carlo microscopic simulators, thus circumventing their derivation in closed form. In particular, we use projective multi-step integration to solve the coarse initial value problem forward in time as well as backward in time (under certain conditions). Macroscopic trajectories are thus traced back to unstable, source-type, and even sometimes saddle-like stationary points, even though the microscopic simulator only evolves forward in time. We also demonstrate the use of such projective integrators in a shooting boundary value problem formulation for the computation of "coarse limit cycles" of the macroscopic behavior, and the approximation of their stability through estimates of the leading "coarse Floquet multipliers".

description: The impurity effects on the transition temperature Tc and the isotope effect are examined in multiband superconductors with magnetic and nonmagnetic impurities, where the effect of Coulomb repulsion is considered. It is shown that an internal transition of the superconducting state is induced by impurity doping, and that the transition is accompanied by a jump of the isotope-effect coefficient alpha. In particular, the transition is illustrated in a system with two electron bands. In some special cases, extended Abrikosov and Gor'kov (AG) equations for Tc and the expressions of the isotope-effect coefficient alpha are obtained. Possible relevance of the present mechanism to the experimental results of Sr2RuO4 is discussed.

description: The information presented in this paper clearly demonstrates once more the outstandingly beneficial effect of magnesium on yields of pineapples when gro'wn on the acid latosols, soils typical of t~ pineapple growing region of Puerto Rico. Pineapple plants supplied with magnesium produced the average 2.75 tons more fruits per acrA. than plants not supplied with this nutrient. This was equivalent to a 20 percent increase in yields. Foliar analyses revealed that highest fruit yields were associated with the highest leaf magnesium contents. Neither the use of lime alone or in combination with magnesium were effective in increasing significantly pineapple yields. From the results presented herein it may be concluded that magnesium should be incorporated in the fertilizer mix or appl ied in foliar sprays, as may be more advantageous in a particular situation so as greatly to increase economical pineapple production.

description: We present extensive radial-velocity observations of the intermediate polar DW Cnc during its 2018-2019 low state. We show that the 86 min signal, associated with the orbital period is strong in our radial velocity analysis, power spectrum search, as well as in our Doppler Tomography. However, we find that the velocity modulation associated with the 70-min beat period and the 38-min spin cycle are dramatically weaker than previously observed. We put forward two interpretations for this change. The first is that a sudden drop into a low state detected in 2018-2019 caused an episode of low mass transfer from the companion, thus inhibiting the light-house effect produced by the rebound emission. The second is that this is a consequence of a rare outburst detected in 2007 by Crawford (2008). We find this post-outburst hypothesis to be less likely. If the first scenario is correct, we predict that DW Cnc will recover its intermediate polar characteristics. A new ephemeris is presented by combining Patterson et aal. (2004) radial velocities with ours.

description: Spin orbit assisted Mott insulators such as sodium iridate (Na$_2$IrO$_3$) have been an important subject of study in the recent years. In these materials, the interplay of electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, crystal field effects and a honeycomb arrangement of ions bring exciting ground states, predicted in the frame of the Kitaev model. The insulating character of Na$_2$IrO$_3$ has hampered its integration to an electronic device, desirable for applications, such as the manipulation of quasiparticles interesting for topological quantum computing. Here we show through electronic transport measurements supported by Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) experiments, that electronic transport in Na$_2$IrO$_3$ is ruled by variable range hopping and it is strongly dependent on the magnetic ordering transition known for bulk Na$_2$IrO$_3$, as well as on external electric fields. Electronic transport measurements allow us to deduce a value for the localization length and the density of states in our Na$_2$IrO$_3$ thin crystals devices, offering an alternative approach to study insulating layered materials.

description: A theorem of Weyl tells us that the Lorentz (and parity) invariant polynomials in the momenta of $n$ particles are generated by the dot products. We extend this result to include the action of an arbitrary permutation group $P \subset S_n$ on the particles, to take account of the quantum-field-theoretic fact that particles can be indistinguishable. Doing so provides a convenient set of variables for describing scattering processes involving identical particles, such as $pp \to jjj$, for which we provide an explicit set of Lorentz and permutation invariant generators.

Polyglot cubed : The design and implementation of a multi-language learning game
Creators: name: Grace, Lindsay
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Polyglot Cubed is an educational game to facilitate the learning of multiple languages. It is designed to entertain while enforcing language listening comprehension. The modular language learning game system works interchangeably with a variety of languages. The game relies on a matching mechanic intended to balance comprehension based language recognition with a simple gameplay mechanic. The game is an implementation of theories in motivation, education and entertainment. It takes as its motivation academic critique of existing educational video games and in particular pursues those areas where educational games fall short of the needs of post-secondary learners. This document outlines the research, design, implementation and fundamental evaluation of the educational video game.

description: Using a combination of observations involving the VLA, MERLIN and global VLBI networks we have made a detailed study of the radio continuum and the neutral hydrogen (HI) kinematics and distribution within the central kiloparsec of the radio galaxy 3C293. These observations trace the complex jet structure and identify the position of the steeply inverted radio core at 1.3GHz. Strong HI absorption is detected against the majority of the inner kiloparsec of 3C293. This absorption is separated into two dynamically different and spatially resolved systems. Against the eastern part of the inner radio jet narrow HI absorption is detected and shown to have higher optical depths in areas co-spatial with a central dust lane. Against the western jet emission and core component, broad and complex HI absorption is detected. This broad and complex absorption structure is discussed in terms of two possible interpretations for the gas kinematics observed: that the gas is situated in two gas layers or that it is in a sub-kiloparsec disk rotating about the core.

description: L’entretien se déroule au domicile de l’informatrice qui allaite son enfant âgé de six mois. Au début de l’enquête, l’informatrice explique comment se passe l’allaitement avec son enfant. L’informatrice explique qu’elle n'était pas informée à propos du lait des premiers jours, le colostrum. Elle pensait que ce premier lait n’était pas suffisant car différent du lait maternel. L’informatrice raconte qu’elle s'est ensuite renseignée sur le colostrum et a appris que ce dernier était bon pour le système immunitaire de l’enfant. L’informatrice raconte comment s'est passée la première semaine d’allaitement après la naissance et précise qu’elle devait faire attention à son alimentation durant la période d’allaitement pour ne pas provoquer des coliques à son enfant. L’informatrice décrit les sentiments et les sensations qu’elle ressent lors de l’allaitement. Elle précise également qu’elle donne des biberons de lait maternisé à son enfant de six mois. L’informatrice explique les bienfaits de l’allaitement sur son enfant. Elle considère que l’allaitement maternel exclusif présente un avantage économique. Les lieux où l’informatrice allaite et ses habitudes durant l'allaitement de son enfant sont évoqués. L’enquêtrice aborde le sujet de l’allaitement en public. L’informatrice explique qu’elle n’est pas à l’aise lorsqu’il a y beaucoup de monde autour d’elle lorsqu’elle doit allaiter. L’informatrice explique qu’elle veut allaiter son enfant jusqu'à ses 18 mois. L’informatrice raconte les expériences de deux de ses amies à qui les médecins ont conseillé de donner du lait maternisé à leur enfant plutôt que de les allaiter. À la fin l’enquête, l’informatrice précise que son enfant participe à la cohorte d’épidémiologie 2015.
title: Women Framing Hair: Serial Strategies in Contemporary Art
Creators: name: Hanna, Heather J.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2012

description: This thesis explores the complex and enigmatic motif of hair in the work of five contemporary women artists, Chrystl Rijkeboer, Alice Maher, Annegret Soltau, Kathy Prendergast and Ellen Gallagher, from the late 1970s to the present. The purpose of the research is to investigate why hair is such a productive and resonant site of meaning, how it is suggestive of and responds to serial strategies, and why it appears to be of particular significance to women who are artists. I explore the implications of hair as an embodied material, as well as its role as a haptic metaphor of the life cycle. I also discuss some of the divergent histories of hair as a rich marker of identity in cultural discourses of beauty, myth and femininity, and as a symbol of status and power. What might be seen as a darker, more liminal side of hair as a site of excess and body waste, and its ability to represent trauma and 'wounding', are also explored. As I argue, through its somatic connections hair can be positioned both of, and yet abjected from, the living body. Informed by a range of theoretical approaches, this research has drawn on Julia Kristeva's theorizations of the abject, Hélène Cixous's notion of écriture feminine, and a Deleuzian consideration of difference. A major concern is the different artists' strategies and negotiations with notions of seriality, which enable rich and compelling possibilities for writing the female body in imaginative and fluid ways. This, together with gender issues, identity and the body - specifically the head - and memory as a marker of biography, are key themes throughout the thesis. In combination with its historiography, the medium of hair and its simulacra in art practice are seen to have the potential to challenge and subvert conceptions of feminine identity and some of the bastions of traditional painting and sculpture.

description: In Random Finite Set based multi-sensor multi-object tracking, the NP-hard measurement-to-track assignment problem is a key challenge. One approach to address this challenge involves executing computationally simpler single-sensor updates based on a common prediction, followed by the fusion of these updates. This strategy is used by the already proposed Fast Product Multi-Sensor Labeled Multi-Bernoulli filter, which still poses computational challenges in its existing formulation. This paper introduces an efficient implementation of the Fast Product Multi-Sensor Labeled Multi-Bernoulli filter by improving the efficiency of the individual single-sensor updates and the fusion of the resulting single-sensor posterior densities. Two different approaches are presented for each part, including the new GeneralizedKBestSelection algorithm, which solves a k shortest path problem on highly structured graphs. Our approach is evaluated on simulations, and the results are compared with an Iterated Corrector implementation of the Labeled Multi-Bernoulli filter using comparable simplifications.
Symmetry properties of attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy in crystalline dielectrics

description: We theoretically investigate a relation between the crystalline symmetry and the transient modulation of optical properties of crystalline dielectrics in pump-probe measurements using intense pump and attosecond probe fields. When the photon energy of the pump field is much below the bandgap energy, the modulation of the optical conductivity is caused by the intraband electronic motion, that is, the dynamical Franz-Keldysh effect. We analytically investigate symmetry properties of the modulated optical conductivity utilizing the Houston function, and derive a formula that relates the temporal oscillation in the absorption with the transformation properties of the modulated optical conductivity. To verify the validity of the formula, we perform real-time first-principles calculations based on the time-dependent density functional theory for a pump-probe process taking 4H-SiC crystal as an example.

Measurement of cumulants of conserved charge multiplicity distributions in Au+Au collisions from the STAR experiment

description: We report the collision-centrality dependence of cumulants of event-by-event net-proton, net-charge and net-kaon distributions in Au+Au collisions for center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 54.4 GeV from the STAR experiment. Strong collision-centrality dependence is observed for cumulants ($C_{n}, n$ $\leq$ 4) of the net-particle distributions. The cumulant ratios $C_{3}/C_{2}$, $C_{4}/C_{2}$ and $C_{6}/C_{2}$ exhibit a weak collision-centrality dependence. The $C_{6}/C_{2}$ of net-proton and net-charge distributions for most central gold nuclei collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 54.4 GeV show positive sign while they remain negative at 200 GeV for the same collision system. To understand effects of acceptance and baryon number conservation, the measurements are compared to expectations from the UrQMD and HIJING models calculated within the STAR detector acceptance.
