description: Disasters are among the most difficult challenges that societies can face. If they were natural, such as volcanoes, floods or man-made wars. This article deals with the development of recommendations for Post-war reconstruction in Syria. As a result of terrorist acts over the past 8 years, the construction sector suffered great damage, and a significant part of the population was forced to leave their homes. With the end of hostilities, the reconstruction phase begins. This article suggests a guideline for reconstruction process, using panel system as the best option, along with using modern techniques (BIM, MTP, lean construction) and considering the seismic conditions.

description: Yes, if the universe has compact topology. Inflation is currently the most elegant explanation of why the universe is old, large, nearly flat, homogeneous on large scales and structured on small scales. One of the weaknesses of the inflationary paradigm is the problem of initial conditions for inflation: the pre-inflationary universe must be somewhat old, somewhat large and somewhat homogeneous. These initial condition requirements are even more severe in Omega < 1 inflationary models: if the universe does not inflate enough to appear flat, then it does not inflate enough to appear homogeneous. One solution is to have two inflationary epochs. Here, we propose another solution to the problem of pre-inflationary homogeneity: if the universe is compact, then during the pre-inflationary period, there is sufficient time to homogenize the universe as chaotic mixing smoothes out primordial fluctuations. Gradients in the energy-density are reduced as e^(-kappa d), where kappa is the Kolomogorov-Sinai entropy of the flow, and d is the distance the flow travels. We explore this homogenization process, outline why compact negatively-curved universes are the most natural, and conclude with a discussion of the implications of living in such a universe.

description: In condensed matter physics many features can be understood in terms of their topological properties. Here we report evidence of a topological quantum transition driven by the charge-phonon coupling in the spinless Haldane model on a honeycomb lattice, a well-known prototypical model of Chern insulator. Starting from parameters describing the topological phase in the bare Haldane model, we show that the increasing of the strength of the charge lattice coupling drives the system towards a trivial insulator. The average number of fermions in the Dirac point, characterized by the lowest gap, exhibits a finite discontinuity at the transition point and can be used as direct indicator of the topological quantum transition. Numerical simulations show, also, that the renormalized phonon propagator exhibits a two peak structure across the quantum transition, whereas, in absence of the mass term in the bare Hadane model, there is indication of a complete softening of the effective vibrational mode signaling a charge density wave instability.

description: A massive tsunami hit Aceh in December 26, 2004. It was one of the biggest natural disasters of the century. The tsunami’s unprecedented destruction of the area attracted the biggest influx ever of international aid and highlighted the nearly non-existent social service system at local levels. The abundance of international aid served as an impetus for the Indonesian government to review their social service system. This is the first time that resources from international aid in Indonesia were allocated for professionalization of social workers.
This dissertation utilizes a qualitative narrative analysis to explore the questions: How do Indonesian social workers understand and express their experience of the social work professionalization process post-2004 tsunami? How do they interpret the process of professionalization? How do the systems available influence their professional interpretation of the experience and affect their strategies to gain public recognition and resources to claim professional jurisdiction in a society? Interviews were conducted of fifteen Indonesian social workers who were involved in the 2004 tsunami recovery efforts and are still active in the social work professionalization efforts today. The findings show that the international aid and 2004 tsunami in Aceh, Indonesia was the impetus for professionalization of social work in Indonesia. This study explores how Indonesian social workers understand and interpret their experience during the tsunami 2004 recovery efforts using Abbott’s system of professions concepts to frame the professionalization process as impacted by international aid during the 2004 tsunami. The findings revolve around formal public recognition, community sanction and a systematic knowledge base in Indonesia’s social work professionalization process.

Prediction of future water chemistry from Island Copper Mine’s on-land dumps

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: Island Copper Mine will close shortly and one part of closure planning involved predictions of water chemistry from the on-land waste-rock dumps over decades to centuries. The approach used to create the predictions entailed a statistical assessment of existing monitoring data, involving analyses of more than 5,800 drainage samples over 24 years. The results showed that aqueous concentrations have followed regular, predictable trends as pH evolved from pH-neutral to acidic conditions. As long as these acidic conditions persist, ranges of concentrations similar to those already measured are expected to continue. After acidic conditions dissipate and pH eventually returns to near-neutral levels, the predictable trends should again be followed. These trends were defined by empirical equations and were compiled into a "predictive water-chemistry model". This model predicts that copper in acidic water, for example, should have a mean annual concentration around 0.73 mg/L with low-high monthly averages of 0.14 and 3.7 mg/L.

Internet killed the b-boy star: a study of b-boying through the lens of contemporary media

Year: 2010
Subjects: Dance
Internet

description: The twentieth century could hardly be characterized without a reference to the Internet, a global system of interconnected computers that serve billions of users worldwide. As personal lives are further occupied by this new technology, the Internet has naturally also spread to the realm of education, where teachers have begun to see the Internet as a convenient, effective, and adaptable teaching tool for students both young and older. The American education rests on an oral tradition — teacher-to-student verbal communication is crucial to the system, as the norm of both parties occupying the same physical space. For dance education, this traditional method is even further rooted in the learning process; one would be hard-pressed to imagine a formal dance class in which a teacher is not physically demonstrating, in one form or another, to her students. In Barnard College's Dance Program, the Internet is utilized in a variety of ways to enhance the learning experience. Increasingly, professors have begun to use websites as legitimate sources of educational material and present websites, such as YouTube.com, as reliable sources of historical and/or international dance footage. This paper seeks to understand the effects of the increasing use of new media, specifically the Internet, on the traditions of b-boying since its origins in the 1970's. I seek first to establish the idea of the b-boy star-the original b-boy who embodies the style and philosophies rooted in the traditions of the 1970's. I will examine each specific element that created this "star" — his way of life, the sacredness of b-boy communities, and the foundational style of his dance form. Then, I will examine how the contemporary media, such as MTV and Reality Television, have presented the b-boy dance form to the American people. Lastly, I will discuss how the Internet undermines the core qualities of a b-boy with the creation of a virtual space or community for breaking. Ultimately, this paper seeks to understand how the Internet has changed the way that a dance can be learned, communicated, and evaluated by dancers and the rest of the world.

description: The Internet events in China have attracted a lot of attention in studying the impact of new communication techniques on civic engagement and development of online public sphere. By analyzing the case of the Wenzhou high-speed train accident in July, 2011, this thesis explores a broad scenario where netizens apply the Internet in different ways and for different goals, including information flow, online activism, charity, and rumor refutation. The thesis attempts to show how netizens' use of the Internet affects the state-society dynamics and their relationship with other social actors, in what way it suggests improvement in China's civil society, and why these characteristics and functions of the Internet have come into being.

description: We consider the classical fluctuations of the gravitational constant generated by bubbles in the inflationary universe. For extended inflation, we demonstrate numerically how and how large fluctuations are produced during bubble expansion. The amplitude of the fluctuations depends on the Brans-Dicke parameter $ω$: if $ω$ is of the order of unity, the amplitude becomes of the order of unity within one Hubble expansion time; if $ω$ is large (say, $ω=1000$), the growth rate of the fluctuations is small, but it keeps growing without freezing during inflation. We also discuss some astrophysical implications of our results.

description: Among the well-known sufficient degree conditions for the Hamiltonicity of a finite graph, the condition of Asratian and Khachatrian is the weakest and thus gives the strongest result. Diestel conjectured that it should extend to locally finite infinite graphs~$G$, in that the same condition implies that the Freudenthal compactification of $G$ contains a circle through all its vertices and ends. We prove Diestel's conjecture for claw-free graphs.

description: The influence of quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field on the propagation of a polarized light wave in a nonlinear dielectric is investigated. It is shown that in some cases, the fluctuations couple to the optical nonlinearities of the medium and make its refractive index dependent on the polarization of the propagating wave. As a consequence, two light waves propagating in a same direction but with different polarizations will have different speeds, so there will be a Kerr-effect birefringence induced by quantum fluctuations. We consider the case of the electromagnetic field in a squeezed vacuum state, where there are regions where the mean squared electric field can be negative and the birefringence effect has the opposite sign to the Kerr effect in classical physics. We give some estimates for the magnitude of these effects, and discuss their possible observability.

description: The set of all possible spherically symmetric magnetic static Einstein-Yang-Mills field equations for an arbitrary compact semi-simple gauge group $G$ was classified in two previous papers. Local analytic solutions near the center and a black hole horizon as well as those that are analytic and bounded near infinity were shown to exist. Some globally bounded solutions are also known to exist because they can be obtained by embedding solutions for the $G=SU(2)$ case which is well understood. Here we derive some asymptotic properties of an arbitrary global solution, namely one that exists locally near a radial value $r_{0}$, has positive mass $m(r)$ at $r_{0}$ and develops no horizon for all $r>r_{0}$. The set of asymptotic values of the Yang-Mills potential (in a suitable well defined gauge) is shown to be finite in the so-called regular case, but may form a more complicated real variety for models obtained from irregular rotation group actions.

By using the Toda criterion of the Gaussian curvature we find a classical chaos-order transition as a function of the Higgs vacuum, the Yang-Mills coupling constant and the energy of the system. Then, we study the nearest-neighbour spacing distribution of the energy levels, which shows a Wigner-Poisson transition by increasing the value of the Higgs field in the vacuum. This transition is a clear quantum signature of the classical chaos-order transition of the system.

description: Sussex Archaeological Collections, 133, 7-18
description: A barrow at Round-the-Down near Lewes, was excavated by Lewes Archaeological Group in the mid 1970s under the direction of the late Richard Lewis. The barrow had been plundered, probably in its more recent history, and its poor state of preservation at the time of excavation plus the inadequate records kept meant that the amount of useful information extracted was limited. However, use of those records that exist, and a full analysis of the finds from the excavation, have made it possible to date the construction of the barrow to the early Bronze Age, thus contributing further to our understanding of the past landscape and activity in this area.

The Hubble law utilised yields a constant value for the deceleration parameter. A new class of solutions is presented in the Robertson-Walker spacetimes. The coefficient of bulk viscosity is assumed to be a power function of the mass density. For a class of solutions, the deceleration parameter is negative which is consistent with the supernovae Ia observations.

description: Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) has been used successfully in many conventional machine learning applications and is considered to be a useful alternative to Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) as a deep learning optimizer. However, as an emerging domain, several challenges remain, including 1) The lack of global convergence guarantees, 2) Slow convergence towards solutions, and 3) Cubic time complexity with regard to feature dimensions. In this paper, we propose a novel optimization framework for deep learning via ADMM (dlADMM) to address these challenges simultaneously. The parameters in each layer are updated backward and then forward so that the parameter information in each layer is exchanged efficiently. The time complexity is reduced from cubic to quadratic in (latent) feature dimensions via a dedicated algorithm design for subproblems that enhances them utilizing iterative quadratic approximations and backtracking. Finally, we provide the first proof of global convergence for an ADMM-based method (dlADMM) in a deep neural network problem under mild conditions. Experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrated that our proposed dlADMM algorithm outperforms most of the comparison methods.

description: The Eskay Creek mine is located approximately 130 km north of Stewart BC. The construction of the lskut Road and Eskay Creek Spur road was a critical component of mine development and allowed the mine to begin production on schedule in January 1995. In 1990, after an extensive exploration program, a decision was made to develop the property. Although there had been a number of studies investigating road access to the area along the lskut River Valley, property access was controlled by helicopter support. The initial lskut road study was completed by the B.C. government. In 1991 a study was co-sponsored by Cominco and Corona Corporation (now Homestake Canada Inc. and Prime Resources Group - Eskay Creek) and the Ministry of Energy Mines and Petroleum Resources. This paper describes the two stage construction of the 60 km road with respect to environmental design considerations, progressive reclamation activity, First Nations participation and the evolution of the permitting process. A description of the role of Environmental Supervisor and the development of Mitigation Plans is highlighted. Finally, the paper will describe the necessity of mining roads for mineral development and the positive aspects of road development and construction. The implications of regulatory initiatives, such as the Forestry Practices Code, federal and provincial involvement and binding road development with environmental assessment processes will be discussed.

description: The quantum integrability is established for the one-dimensional supersymmetric $U$ model with boundary terms by means of the quantum inverse scattering method. The boundary supersymmetric $U$ chain is solved by using the coordinate space Bethe ansatz technique and Bethe ansatz equations are derived. This provides us with a basis for computing the finite size corrections to the low lying energies in the system.

description: Interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its applications has seen unprecedented growth in the last few years. This success can be partly attributed to the advancements made in the sub-fields of AI such as machine learning, computer vision, and natural language processing. Much of the growth in these fields has been made possible with deep learning, a sub-area of machine learning that uses artificial neural networks. This has created significant interest in the integration of vision and language. In this survey, we focus on ten prominent tasks that integrate language and vision by discussing their problem formulation, methods, existing datasets, evaluation measures, and compare the results obtained with corresponding state-of-the-art methods. Our efforts go beyond earlier surveys which are either task-specific or concentrate only on one type of visual content, i.e., image or video. Furthermore, we also provide some potential future directions in this field of research with an anticipation that this survey stimulates innovative thoughts and ideas to address the existing challenges and build new applications.

Line Emission from an Accretion Disk around a Rotating Black Hole: Toward a Measurement of Frame Dragging

description: Line emission from an accretion disk and a corotating hot spot about a rotating black hole are considered for possible signatures of the frame-dragging effect. We explicitly compare integrated line profiles from a geometrically thin disk about a Schwarzschild and an extreme Kerr black hole, and show that the line profile differences are small if the inner radius of the disk is near or above the Schwarzschild stable-orbit limit of radius 6GM/c^2. However, if the inner disk radius extends below this limit, as is possible in the extreme Kerr spacetime, then differences can become significant, especially if the disk emissivity is stronger near the inner regions. We demonstrate that the first three moments of a line profile define a three-dimensional space in which the presence of material at small radii becomes quantitatively evident in broad classes of disk models. In the context of the simple, thin disk paradigm, this moment-mapping scheme suggests formally that the iron line detected by the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics mission from MCG-6-30-15 (Tanaka et al. 1995) is 3 times more likely to originate from a disk about a rotating black hole than from a Schwarzschild system. A statistically significant detection of black hole rotation in this way may be achieved after only modest improvements in the quality of data. We also consider light curves and frequency shifts in line emission as a function of time for corotating hot spots in extreme Kerr and Schwarzschild geometries. Both the frequency-shift profile and the light curve from a hot spot are valuable measures of orbital parameters and might possibly be used to detect frame dragging even at radii approaching 6GM/c^2 if the inclination angle of the orbital plane is large.

description: Unlike many other Sub-Saharan African countries, for many years Kenya had comparative advantages in the manufacturing of processed bean products. However, for new competitors intending to join the bean processing industry, little is known about marketing strategies for value added bean products. Using data from 90 retailers in the Nairobi and Kiambu counties in Kenya, a two-step econometric procedure-multivariate probit and Poisson regression models were applied to analyse retailers’ marketing strategy decisions. Findings show that information sources, cost of marketing, supply modalities, price of products, and quantities handled significantly influenced retailers’ marketing strategy choice. Surveyed retailers applied varying marketing strategies to market value added bean products. There is need for prospective retailers to choose an appropriate mix of strategies to penetrate the dynamic market with a number of value added bean products, and promote local consumption of value added bean products.

description: In this paper general solutions are found for domain walls in Lyra geometry in the plane symmetric spacetime metric given by Taub. Expressions for the energy density and pressure of domain walls are derived in both cases of uniform and time varying displacement field $β$. It is also shown that the results obtained by Rahaman et al [IJMPD, {\bf 10}, 735 (2001)] are particular case of our solutions. Finally, the geodesic equations and acceleration of the test particle are discussed.

description: This paper examined the export performance of Egypt’s small and medium-sized agri-food firms in relation to the proliferation and intensification of EU food safety and quality standards. The empirical work that was based on a survey and the estimation of ordered probit models revealed that certification is an indispensable market access instrument for Egypt’s firms to penetrate EU markets for imported agri-food commodities. The experience of firms in the agri-food export business was associated with decreasing probabilities of border rejections and exiting export markets due to standards. Furthermore, the results implied that the surveyed firms turn to less demanding markets in terms of food safety and quality requirements as these requirements become more stringent in their traditional export markets. Finally, inconclusive findings were drawn from the role of permanent and skilled firms’ labor on the export performance of the surveyed firms.
Large parity violating effects in atomic dysprosium with nearly degenerate Floquet eigenvalues

description: In this article we study effects of parity nonconservation in atomic dysprosium, where one has a pair of nearly degenerate levels of opposite parity. We consider the time evolution of this two-level system within oscillatory electric and magnetic fields. These are chosen to have a periodical structure with the same period, such that a Floquet matrix describes the time evolution of the quantum states. We show that, if the states are unstable, the eigenvalues of the Floquet matrix may have contributions proportional to the square root of the parity violating interaction matrix element $H_w$ while they are almost degenerate in their parity even part. This leads to beat frequencies proportional to $\sqrt{H_w}$ which are expected to be larger by several orders of magnitude compared to ordinary P-violating contributions which are of order $H_w$. However, for the simple field configurations we considered, it still seems to be difficult to observe these P-violating beat effects, since the states decay too fast. On the other hand, we found that, within only a few Floquet cycles, very large parity violating asymmetries with respect to experimental setups of opposite chirality may be obtained. The electric and magnetic fields as well as the time intervals necessary for this are in an experimentally accessible range. For statistically significant effects beyond one standard deviation a number of about $10^7$ atoms is required. Our ideas may be applied directly to other 2-level atomic systems and different field configurations. We hope that these ideas will stimulate experimental work in this direction.

Internships in the New York Not-For-Profit Theatre: Past, Present and Towards a New Future

description: What is the future of internships in our field? How will the trends of related industries affect (or potentially threaten) the stability of our small industry? And finally, what are the best practices and necessary changes that must be adopted in order to allow the field to survive potential scrutiny? Theatre internships are an important part of the growth and development of budding professionals entering the field, and are one of the most successful ways of entering the industry by providing hands-on training and opportunities to make invaluable connections. However, unpaid and stipended internships, specifically, pose a legal threat to all not-for-profits that do not comply with the Department of Labor’s specific internship guidelines, which in themselves do not reflect a true understanding of the nuances and hands-on nature of the theatre industry. In addition, unpaid internships are also perpetuating a class divide in the field and financial instability for millennials who are being trained and are offering their services without remuneration. Given the current challenges faced by the commercial entertainment industry and other industries with similar internship structures, it seems that the continuation of the current internship practices will inevitably result in legal inquiry, which could greatly harm small not-for-profits, while also perpetuating a lack of diversity and a future of continued underpaid employment in the field. Although an ideal ultimate goal is, of course, to pay for all labor, this goal is an unrealistic one at this point in time and would take years of development and evolution. Many not-for-profit theatre organizations would not be able to operate at their current level without the support of early-career millennials; these institutions would be forced to undercut current programs or would bottom out financially. Therefore, since we can neither convert all interns to paid employees nor eliminate intern support altogether, we must at minimum improve upon the educational and experiential outcomes for current theatre interns, and restructure our internship programs to align with existing regulations.
