description: The aim of the thesis was the study and present the Christian social organization "The Salvation Army" both in Greece and abroad. More specifically, initially reference is made to the historical side of the organization from its foundation to the present day. Thereinafter we analyzed the Army's beliefs through its 11th Articles of Faith, and at the same time we examined the differences and similarities of the Baptism and the Supper of the Lord with regard to the Orthodox Church, with absolute respect on both sides. We proceeded to the symbols of the organization with a separate analysis for each. We continued with another area of the dual nature of the organization, the social action. Reference to the beliefs of the Army about social action is given and its various forms mainly abroad. In conclusion, we provided information about the work of the organization in Greece, Thessaloniki and Athens
Wang Anshi’s (1021-1086) seven-syllable jueju on nature themes
Creators: name: Edmonds, Susan Elizabeth

description: This thesis attempts to introduce the main characteristics of Wang Anshi’s (102 1-1086) style as it manifests itself in his seven-syllable jueju on nature themes. I begin with a biographical sketch of Wang, highlighting his personality and motivations as a statesman! poet. Except for this section, any further discussion of his reforms, or New Laws, for which he is best-known, is avoided. Instead, the focus is on illuminating the salient qualities of his technique and his nature imagery. Chapters One and Two provide background information in order to establish an understanding from which to approach Wang’s poetry. First, the structural features of the jueju form, as well as its historical development, are outlined. Next, the influence of Wang’s predecessors, such as Du Fu, Mei Yaochen, Ouyang Xiu and others, on his typically “Northern Song” style is analyzed. This involves briefly touching upon the features of the pingdan style and Wang’s views on literary theory. Chapter Three examines in detail Wang’s positive response to nature in his landscape poetry, particularly during his retirement years. His voice as a poet is evident in the patterns which emerge. Copious examples are translated and explicated, many for the first time here in the English language, which illustrate his preference for rugged mountains, rippling rivers, fragrant flower blossoms, and man harmoniously interacting with nature in springtime. His poetry emphasizes the careful selection of words, simplicity of language, the judicious and subtle use of allusion, and everyday events enriched by philosophical overtones. Finally, I summarize Wang’s accomplishments and contributions, and suggest other aspects of the study of his jueju that warrant further investigation. This thesis shows that he was a poet bound by tradition, yet he managed to successfully express his individuality with freshness. Thus, as an adept craftsman of serene, sensitive, and sincere nature poetry, he earned a place for himself among the Eight Masters of the Tang-Song Period.

description: Η χρήση και εκμετάλλευση του νερού αποτελεί αναμφίβολα μια απο τις μεγαλύτερες προκλήσεις που αντιμετωπίζει η ανθρωπότητα τις τελευταίες δεκαετίες. Ειδικότερα, τίθενται πολλά ερωτήματα σχετικά με την ισοκατανομή των υδάτων διακρατικού χαρακτήρα. Και αναδύονται επιμέρους ζητήματα όπως είναι τα συμφέροντα των κρατών και η παγκόσμια ειρήνη. Από τα μέχρι τώρα αποτελέσματα των εφαρμόσιμων πολιτικών έχει αποδειχθεί ότι για την χρήση και εκμετάλλευση των υδάτων χρησιμοποιούνται μέθοδοι «κατά το δοκούν», δηλαδή σύμφωνα με την αποκόμιση κέρδους και όχι με βάση τις ανάγκες των ανθρώπων. Αυτή η αντιμετώπιση οδήγησε σε ένοπλες συρράξεις εντός του ιδίου κράτους ή και σε διεθνές επίπεδο μεταξύ των κρατών. Σκοπός της παρούσης εργασίας είναι να αναδειχθεί η αξία του νερού που έχει για τον άνθρωπο, να παρατεθούν κάποιες πολύ σημαντικές περιπτώσεις οι οποίες οδήγησαν ή ενδέχεται να οδηγήσουν σε ένοπλες συρράξεις και να επισημανθούν οι πιθανοί τρόποι αποφυγής των ενόπλων συρράξεων(χρησιμοποιώντας τις αρχές του διεθνούς δικαίου) αλλά και προστασίας των υδάτων κατά την διάρκεια των ενόπλων συρράξεων (μέσα από τις διατάξεις νομοθετικών κειμένων και συμβάσεων που έχουν απήχηση στο σύνολο των κρατών)
description: The use and the exploitation of water has undoubtedly been one of the most significant challenges faced by humanity during the last decades. To be more precise, a number of questions related to water equalization among nations arise and at the same time specific issues emerge, such as national interests and world peace. The politics that have been applied until now and their results have proved that the methods adopted for both the use and the exploitation of water are merely based on the economic profits and not on the actual needs of humanity. This condition has lead to armed conflicts not only international but also within states. The aim of the present dissertation is to highlight the actual value of water to people. For this reason, a variety of cases which caused armed conflicts will be exemplified while possible ways of avoiding these conflicts (based on the principles of international law) will also be mentioned. Finally, the ways of protecting water during armed conflict (based on the provisions of legislative texts and conventions respected by the majority of nations) will be presented
OEE can be your key: Changing Formula for Equipment Availability to Improve Performance

description: Overall equipment efficiency (OEE) measures the ratio of how much of a product or part is being made defect-free versus how much could be made according to the equipment’s design. A machine or process that has an OEE of 100 percent is producing at its maximum designed capacity with zero defects. Three metrics – availability, performance and quality – make up OEE. When real output is lower than expected, practitioners can find opportunities for improvement in all three of these factors and take actions that maximize the current process capabilities, fix problems and improve productivity.

description: In this work, using first-principle calculation we investigate the magnetic anisotropy (MA) of single-atom iridium (Ir) on TaS2 substrate. We find that the strength and direction of MA in the Ir adatom can be tuned by strain. The MA arises from two sources, namely spin-conservation term and spin-flip term. The spin-conservation term is generated by spin-orbit coupling (SOC) interaction on dxy/dx2-y2 orbitals and is contributed to the out-of-plane MA. The spin-flip term is caused by SOC interaction on dxz/dyz and px/py orbitals and is responsible for the in-plane MA. We further find that strain-tuned MA is mainly determined by exchange splitting and ligand field splitting. Increase of strain will enhance the exchange splitting and reduce the ligand field splitting, resulting in the enhancement of the in-plane MA from dxy/dx2-y2 orbitals and the reduction of the out-of-plane MA from dxz/dyz and px/py orbitals, and hence leading to the change of the strength and direction of the total MA. Our study provides a way for tuning the MA of single-atoms magnet on 2D transition metal dichalcogenides substrate by control of the exchange splitting and the ligand field splitting.

description: Η θεωρία των νομικών μεταφυτεύσεων, η οποία εισήχθη για πρώτη φορά στα μέσα της δεκαετίας του 1970 από τον Σκωτσέζο νομικό και ιστορικό του δικαίου Alan Watson, αποτελεί σήμερα ένα ζωτικής σημασίας συμπλήρωμα στις θεωρίες περί εξέλιξης του δικαίου. Κεντρικό σημείο στη συζήτηση περί μεταφυτεύσεων του δικαίου είναι το ζήτημα κατά πόσο υφίσταται σχέση και επίδραση μεταξύ νομικού πολιτισμού και νομικής μεταφύτευσης και αν ναι, ποια είναι αυτή. Η παρούσα εργασία έχει στόχο να παρουσιάσει όσο το δυνατόν πληρέστερα, το διάλογο που έχει αναπτυχθεί, κυρίως κατά τα τελευταία σαράντα (40) χρόνια από τη θεωρία, σχετικά με τις νομικές μεταφυτεύσεις ως παράγοντα εξέλιξης του δικαίου. Στο πρώτο μέρος της εργασίας θα πραγματοποιηθεί μια όσο το δυνατόν πληρέστερη καταγραφή των διάφορων θεωριών που έχουν κατά καιρούς διατυπωθεί αναφορικά με το ζήτημα των νομικών μεταφυτεύσεων.

description: The theory of legal transplants, introduced for the first time in the mid-1970s by Scottish law and legal history expert, Alan Watson, constitutes a vital complement to the evolutionary theories of law. A central point in the discussion of legal transplants is the question of whether there is a connection or impact between legal culture and legal transplantation, and if so, of what kind. This paper aims to present the dialogue that has developed over the last forty (40) years on legal transplants, as a factor of legal change. In its first part the paper examines, as thoroughly as possible, the various theories that have been formulated over time on the issue of legal transplants. Next, we will focus on some modern examples of legal transplants. The first case to be dealt with arises from the European Union's non-discrimination law, while the second one concerns the case of the adoption of the Swiss Code by Turkey. Subsequently, a brief reference will be made to the modern greek legal order, in order to assess whether the latter has been affected by the use of legal transplants. At the end of the paper, the relevant conclusions will be drawn

Subjects: subject: Civil engineering
subject: FOS: Civil engineering

description: Modern building systems can be exceedingly complex. In this research we develop a computational framework for the parametric modeling and architecture-energy assessment of building floorplans. Parametric representations of floorplans are formulated as multi-layer hierarchies, with adjacent layers coupled by dependency relationships. Software is developed for two approaches to floorplan specification: (1) scripting, and (2) interactive graphical techniques. Computational procedures are developed for assessment of building code regulations, electricity cost assessment, and simplified HVAC component selection and architecture-energy sensitivity analysis. A case study analysis of a two-apartment building system is presented.

description: A current model accurately predicts flame to surface heat flux during upward flame spread on PMMA based on a single input parameter, the mass loss rate. In this study, the model was generalized to predict the heat flux for a broad range of polymers by adding the heat of combustion as a second input parameter. Experimental measurements were conducted to determine mass loss rate during upward flame spread and heat of combustion for seven different polymers. Four types of heat of combustion values were compared to determine which generated the most accurate model predictions. The complete heat of combustion yielded the most accurate predictions (± 4 kW/m2 on average) in the generalized model when compared to experimental heat flux measurements collected in this study. Flame heat flux predictions from FDS direct numerical simulations were also compared to the generalized model predictions in an exploratory manner and found to be similar.

description: Motivated by the recent measurement of the neutron distribution radius of ${}^{208}$Pb from the PREX--2 data, I study the effects of the new G3(M) parameter set constrained by PREX--2 data on the electron--neutrino scattering in dense matter using the extended relativistic mean field (E--RMF) model. I employ the G3(M) parameter set to describe the nuclear matter. The obtained equation of state for the G3(M) parameter set has an excellent agreement with experimental data and the chiral effective field theory calculation with N$^3$LO 3N forces. I analyze both differential cross section of electron--neutrino and electron--neutrino mean free path to observe their sensitivity to the G3(M) parameter set. One finds that the differential cross sections of electron--neutrino for different baryon densities have higher values compared with that obtained for the TM1e and FSU Garnet parameter sets. The higher cross section decreases the electron--neutrino mean free path.

description: We show that temperature anisotropies induced at a shock can account for interplanetary and planetary bow shock observations. Shocked plasma with enhanced plasma beta is preferentially unstable to the mirror mode instability downstream of a quasi-perpendicular shock and to the firehose instability downstream of a quasi-parallel shock, consistent with magnetic fluctuations observed downstream of a large variety of shocks. Our theoretical analysis of the solar wind termination shock suggests that the magnetic holes observed by Voyager 1 in the heliosheath are produced by the mirror mode instability. The results are also of astrophysical interest, providing an energy source for plasma heating.

description: In this paper, we introduce a new perspective on training deep neural networks capable of state-of-the-art performance without the need for the expensive over-parameterization by proposing the concept of In-Time Over-Parameterization (ITOP) in sparse training. By starting from a random sparse network and continuously exploring sparse connectivities during training, we can perform an Over-Parameterization in the space-time manifold, closing the gap in the expressibility between sparse training and dense training. We further use ITOP to understand the underlying mechanism of Dynamic Sparse Training (DST) and indicate that the benefits of DST come from its ability to consider across time all possible parameters when searching for the optimal sparse connectivity. As long as there are sufficient parameters that have been reliably explored during training, DST can outperform the dense neural network by a large margin. We present a series of experiments to support our conjecture and achieve the state-of-the-art sparse training performance with ResNet-50 on ImageNet. More impressively, our method achieves dominant performance over the overparameterization-based sparse methods at extreme sparsity levels. When trained on CIFAR-100, our method can match the performance of the dense model even at an extreme sparsity (98%).

description: We investigate the Minimal Theory of Massive Gravity (MTMG) in the light of different observational data sets which are in tension within the $Λ$CDM cosmology. In particular, we analyze MTMG model, for the first time, with the Planck-CMB data, and how these precise measurements affect the free parameters of the theory. The MTMG model can affect the CMB power spectrum at large angular scales and cause a suppression on the amplitude of the matter power spectrum. We find that on adding Planck-CMB data, the graviton has a small, positive, but non-zero mass at 68\% confidence level, and from this perspective, we show that the tension between redshift space distortions measurements and Planck-CMB data in the parametric space $S_8 - Ω_m$ can be resolved within the MTMG scenario. Through a robust and accurate analysis, we find that the $H_0$ tension between the CMB and the local distance ladder measurements still remains but can be reduced to $\sim3.5σ$ within the MTMG theory. The MTMG is very well consistent with the CMB observations, and undoubtedly, it can serve as a viable candidate amongst other modified gravity theories.

Analysis of Gamma-Band Auditory Responses in Schizophrenia

description: Schizophrenia is a debilitating mental illness that affects 1% of the general population. One characteristic symptom is auditory hallucinations, which is experienced by almost all patients sometime in their lifetime. To investigate differences in auditory response in general, 50 schizophrenic patients and 50 age and sex-matched healthy controls were presented with auditory click trains at 40 Hz. Responses are recorded using electroencephalography (EEG). Magnitude and phase of responses at 40 Hz are computed using Gabor filters.

Supporting previous literature, a significant difference in inter-trial phase coherence (ITC) and overall power is found between patients and controls, in particular near stimulus onset. Additionally, this study also investigated inter-subject phase coherence (ISC). This study finds that ISC is in fact higher for patients, in particular near stimulus onset. One possible explanation is that while healthy controls develop a preferred phase for perception, schizophrenic patients exhibit phase that is primarily stimulus-driven.

description: Many clues about the galaxy assembly process lurk in the faint outer regions of galaxies. Although quantitative study of these parts has been severely limited in the past, breakthroughs are now being made thanks to the combination of wide-area star counts, deep HST imagery and 8-m class spectroscopy. I highlight here some recent progress made on deciphering the fossil record encoded in the outskirts of our nearest large neighbours, M31 and M33.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν η μελέτη του φαινομένου της εξ αδιαθέτου κληρονομικής διαδοχής στο βυζαντινό δίκαιο. Έτσι αρχικά κάνοντας μια ιστορική αναδρομή παρουσιάσαμε τι ίσχυε επί του θέματος στο ρωμαϊκό δίκαιο με το ius civile και το ius praetorium. Εν συνεχεία αναλύθηκαν τα όσα ίσχυαν κατά την διάρκεια της βυζαντινής περιόδου. Ακόμη αναφερθήκαμε και στην εξέλιξη του θεσμού και τι μορφή αυτός έλαβε κατά το πέρασμα στον Αστικό Κώδικα.
description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of the phenomenon of the inherited succession in byzantine law. So, initially, making a historical retrospection, we presented what was relevant to this issue in Roman law with ius civile and ius praetorium. Subsequently, was analyzed the evolution of the topic during the Byzantine period. We have also referred to the inherited succession and what form it took when passing the Civil Code.

description: A transformation is derived that removes the effects of variable properties from wall-bounded turbulent flows.  The transformation derives from the logarithmic velocity profile and the universality of the stress balance.  The Van Driest transformation and the viscous sublayer transformation form subsets of this proposed transformation.  This transformation is validated against direct numerical simulations of compressible turbulent channel flows.

description: We study the thermodynamics and dynamics of high-dimensional Einstein-power-Yang-Mills black holes in conformal gravity. Specifically, we investigate a class of conformally related black holes whose metrics differ by a scale factor. We show that a suitable scale factor cures the geodesic incompleteness and the divergence of Kretschmann scalars at the center of black holes. In the aspect of thermodynamics, we analyse the Hawking temperature, the entropy, and the specific heat, and verify the existence of second-order phase transitions. We find that the thermodynamics of this class of conformally related black holes is independent of scale factors. In the aspect of dynamics, we find that the quasinormal modes of minimally coupled scalar field perturbations are dependent on scale factors. Quite interesting is that the behavior of quasinormal mode frequencies also supports the independence of scale factors for the second-order phase transitions. Our results show that the scale factors produce distinct thermodynamic and dynamic effects in the conformally related Einstein-power-Yang-Mills black holes, which provides an interesting connection between thermodynamics and dynamics of black holes in conformal gravity.

description: Using the 3-telescope IOTA interferometer on Mt. Hopkins, we report results from the first near-infrared (lambda=1.65 mu) closure-phase survey of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs). These closure phases allow us to unambiguously detect departures from centrosymmetry (i.e., skew) in the emission pattern from YSO disks on the scale of ~4 milliarcseconds, expected from generic ``flared disk'' models. Six of fourteen targets showed small, yet statistically-significant, non-zero closure phases, with largest values from the young binary system MWC 361-A and the (pre-main sequence?) Be star HD 45677. Our observations are quite sensitive to the vertical structure of the inner disk and we confront the predictions of the ``puffed-up inner wall'' models of Dullemond, Dominik, and Natta (DDN). Our data support disks models with curved inner rims because the expected emission appear symmetrically-distributed around the star over a wide range of inclination angles. In contrast, our results are incompatible with the models possessing vertical inner walls because they predict extreme skewness (i.e., large closure phases) from the near-IR disk emission that is not seen in our data. In addition, we also present the discovery of mysterious H-band ``halos'' (~5-10% of light on scales 0.01-0.50 arcsec) around a few objects, a preliminary ``parametric imaging'' study for HD 45677, and the first astrometric orbit for the young binary MWC 361-A.

subject: Youth

description: Substance abuse is a pervasive public health problem that affects all people and

communities, regardless of socioeconomic status, race and ethnicity. Substance abuse can

particularly devastate youth, as it correlates with many negative health outcomes

including damage to the developing brain, dependence, delinquency, decreased academic

potential, DUIs, and death. A potential solution to address these problems is the

development and implementation of community coalitions. At the federal level, The

Office of National Drug Control Policy's (ONDCP) Drug-Free Communities (DFC)

Support Program does this through distributing competitive grants to eligible community

coalitions that organize to prevent youth substance abuse.

This descriptive study examines the degree of agreement between activities of 12

high achieving DFC coalitions to determine best practices. The analysis of the

similarities and differences between the program implementation activities determined

that 6 activities were universally present among high achieving coalitions, 10 activities

has high agreement, and 33 activities to have low agreement among the coalitions. This

paper aims to increase the knowledge about high achieving DFCs to help inform policies

and practices for communities to reduce youth substance use.

description: We demonstrate supermode-based second harmonic generation in an integrated nonlinear interferometer made of linear and nonlinear directional couplers. We use a fully-fibered pump shaper to demonstrate second harmonic generation pumped by the symmetric or anti-symmetric fundamental spatial modes. The selection of the pumping mode and thus of a specific SHG spectral profile is achieved through the selection of the fundamental wavelength and via a robust phase setting scheme. We use two methods: either post-selecting or actively setting the pumping mode. Such a modal phase matching paves the way for classical and quantum applications of coupled nonlinear photonic circuits, where multimode excitation, encoding and detection are a route for multiplexing and scaling up light-processing.

description: The purpose of this postgraduate diploma thesis was the interpretative and conceptual approach of the term "cyber-terrorism" in the light of Greek and international law. We examined the term grammatically and then analyzed the no. 185 Council of Europe Convention on Cybercrime. In this context, we presented its objectives and provisions in terms of substantive and procedural criminal law. We then presented the European Parliament and Council Directive No 2013/40/EC on attacks against information systems as well as Law 4411/2016, by which the above texts were incorporated into the Greek legal order. We referred to the protection of information systems and digital data, and then we examined terrorism and, in particular, cyber-terrorism at international level, with the case of Estonia and the Ferizi case, the relationship between cyber-terrorism and hacktivism, and finally the provisions against cyber-terrorism in Greek law
On the $ππ$ contribution to the QCD sum rules for the light tetraquark

description: We perform a QCD sum rule analysis for the $f_0$ light tetraquark taking into account the contribution arising from the two pion intermediate state. With the interpolating currents of the different chiral combinations of scalar and pseudoscalar diquarks, it is demonstrated that the interpolating current with maximum chirality has a large coupling to the two pion state, but the current with zero chirality interacts only weekly with this state. Taking into account the form factor in the $f_0$--two pion vertex, it is shown that the $f_0$--coupling to the two pion state leads to an increase of the lightest tetraquark mass by a value of about 100 MeV. The analysis of the resulting sum rule shows that the $σ(f_0(600))$--meson state might be treated as the four--quark bound state in the instanton field which has a rather strong coupling to the two pion state.

Measuring supermassive black holes with gas kinematics: the active S0 galaxy NGC 3998

description: We present results from a kinematical study of the gas in the nucleus of the active S0 galaxy NGC 3998 obtained from archival HST/STIS long-slit spectra. We analyzed the emission lines profiles and derived the map of the gas velocity field. The observed velocity curves are consistent with gas in regular rotation around the galaxy's center. By modeling the surface brightness distribution and rotation curve of the H_alfa emission line we found that the observed kinematics of the circumnuclear gas can be accurately reproduced by adding to the stellar mass component a compact dark mass (black hole) of M_bh = 2.7(-2.0,+2.4) 10**8 M_sun (uncertainties at a 2 sigma level); the radius of its sphere of influence (R_sph ~ 0".16) is well resolved at the HST resolution. The BH mass estimate in NGC 3998 is in good agreement with both the M_bh vs. M_bul (with an upward scatter by a factor of ~2) and M_bh vs. sigma correlations (with a downward scatter by a factor of ~3-7, depending on the form adopted for the dependence of M_bh on sigma). Although NGC 3998 cannot be considered as an outlier, its location with respect to the M_bh-sigma relation conforms with the trend suggesting the presence of a connection between the ``residuals'' from the M_bh-sigma correlation and the galaxy's effective radius. In fact, NGC 3998 has one of the smallest values of R_e among the galaxies with measured M_bh (0.85 kpc) and it shows a negative residual. This suggests that a combination of both sigma and R_e is necessary to drive the correlations between M_bh and other bulge properties, an indication for the presence of a black holes ``fundamental plane''.

Rethinking Playgrounds: A Design Investigation of Playscape Theory
Creators: name: Gemmell, Jonathan
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Landscape architecture

description: This thesis studies how playscapes and nature play offer alternatives to traditional playground designs by encouraging multiple facets of childhood development. Playscapes promote play spaces that integrate physical, mental, and educational features.  Harnessing the malleability of the natural landscape provides clear developmental advantages that surpass traditional structure-based playground design and provide opportunities for building environmental literacy.  After combining research with feedback taken from site users, a design will be proposed for the exterior of Riverdale Elementary School, in Riverdale Maryland.  Anacostia Watershed Society has received a grant for implementing stormwater controls and improving the quality of the nearby Wells Run stream.  The design of this project will show how it will be possible to combine playscape, nature play, and environmental literacy goals with stormwater storage and treatment to transform the school's environment.
