Si' come dice lo Filosofo: Translating Philosophy in the Early Italian Lyric

description: This study pushes back to the origins of the Italian lyric tradition in order to demonstrate that the impulse to distill the highest levels of intellectual culture into the vernacular love lyric was present from the very inception of the poetic vernacular. I aim to nuance our understanding of the divide between the early schools of poetry as determined by Dante in his role as a literary historian by analyzing early experiments in vulgarizing philosophy and science in the lyric production of Giacomo da Lentini, Guido delle Colonne, Guittone d'Arezzo, and Guido Guinizzelli. By isolating both formal elements of Scholastic argumentation and complex renderings of philosophical/scientific ideas, I develop a broad understanding of the early vernacular poetic engagement with Aristotelian philosophy that encompasses such areas as sensory perception, meteorology, and ethics. I trace the progression of this engagement from its Sicilian beginnings to the poetry of Guido Guinizzelli that is informed by the university culture of Bologna and posit that this early lyric form of vernacular humanism has profound implications for Dante's poetic identity as well as the development of a vernacular intellectual identity that feeds in to such developments as Humanism and the Scientific Revolution.

description: We construct a Lax pair with spectral parameter for the elliptic Calogero-Moser Hamiltonian systems associated with each of the finite dimensional Lie algebras, of the classical and of the exceptional type. When the spectral parameter equals one of the three half periods of the elliptic curve, our result for the classical Lie algebras reduces to one of the Lax pairs without spectral parameter that were known previously. These Calogero-Moser systems are invariant under the Weyl group of the associated untwisted affine Lie algebra. For non-simply laced Lie algebras, we introduce new integrable systems, naturally associated with twisted affine Lie algebras, and construct their Lax operators with spectral parameter (except in the case of $G_2$).

Non-linear conformally invariant generalization of the Poisson equation to D>2 dimensions

description: I propound a non-linear generalization of the Poisson equation describing a "medium" in D dimensions with a "dielectric constant" proportional to the field strength to the power D-2. It is the only conformally invariant scalar theory that is second order, and in which the scalar $phi$ couples to the sources $ρ$ via a $ϕρ$ contact term. The symmetry is used to generate solutions for the field for some non-trivial configurations (e.g. for two oppositely charged points). Systems comprising N point charges afford further application of the symmetry. For these I derive e.g. exact expressions for the following quantities: the general two-point-charge force; the energy function and the forces in any three-body configuration with zero total charge; the few-body force for some special configurations; the virial theorem for an arbitrary, bound, many-particle system relating the time-average kinetic energy to the particle charges. Possible connections with an underlying conformal quantum field theory are mentioned.

Mental illness
History

description: This dissertation traces the evolution of ideas and experiences of mental illness (seishinbyō) in Japan around the turn of the twentieth century, showing how it changed from a diagnostic category of biomedical disease into a dynamic but stigmatized pathology of the self in which the mental and emotional core of a person – who he or she was, essentially – was thought to have malfunctioned. In the course of this transformation, seishinbyō had multiple manifestations, its meanings shifting across time and in different social contexts. It originated in Japanese psychiatric discourse of the 1870s as an allegedly universal category of disease, but was soon modified to account for such existing phenomena as fox-spirit possession. In the family, one of the main sites for the management and treatment of madness in modern Japan, mental illness was associated less with medical etiology and more with violent and socially unacceptable behavior, as seen in cases of home confinement. As the concept of mental illness spread in popular culture and legal discourse, it evolved into a broader cultural idiom about the pathology of the self during a time of rapid social and cultural change. From the gendering of hysteria as the feminine counterpart to male neurasthenia in the media to the menstrual psychosis defense invoked to absolve female defendants of criminal responsibility, gender played an especially prominent role in this evolution. By the 1930s, the idea that the self was the source of its own distress had taken root, shifting attention away from external and social factors, whether fox possession or the stresses of modernity, to inner causes of suffering. The driving forces behind this conceptual change were the social structures and relations of family, gender, and the urban-rural divide. In the context of these three overlapping social sites, changing ideas and practices concerning the mentally ill produced broader transformations in the understanding of the relationship between self and society, including conceptions of mind and body, gendered norms of thought and behavior, and the boundary between the inner self and social forces during a time of modernizing change.

Signal Encoding and Digital Signal Processing in Continuous Time
Creators: Kurchuk, Mariya
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Electrical engineering

description: This work investigates signal encoding in, and architectures of, digital signal processing systems that function in continuous time (CT).  Unlike conventional digital signal processors (DSPs), which rely on a clock to dictate the sampling times of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and to provide the tap delay timing, CT DSPs function entirely in continuous time, without a sampling or a synchronizing clock.  The samples of a CT DSP system are generated and processed only when some measure of the input signal crosses a predetermined threshold.   The effective sampling rate and the dynamic power dissipation of a CT digital system automatically adapt to the activity of the input signal. The properties of signals sampled in continuous time are investigated in this thesis.  A technique for reducing the effective sampling rate of a CT system is presented, in which the digital signal encoding is varied by adjusting the resolution according to a property of the input.  A variable-resolution system leads to a decrease in the number of samples generated, a reduction in the power dissipation and a reduction in the effective chip area of a CT DSP, all without sacrificing in-band performance.  The properties of several asynchronous signal-driven sampling techniques are analyzed and compared. The architecture and signal encoding of CT DSPs for signals in the lower gigahertz frequency range are investigated, with consideration of speed and accuracy limitations in the context of submicron CMOS technologies.  A per-edge digital signal encoding technique is developed, which bypasses timing problems of processing high-speed digital signals; the properties of per-edge encoded signals are discussed.  The design considerations of a low-resolution per-edge-encoded gigahertz-range CT DSP are discussed and an implementation for a possible application is detailed.  A prototype chip has been fabricated in ST 65 nm CMOS technology, which has a compact processor core area of 0.073 mm^2.  The implemented CT digital processor achieves SNDR of over 20 dB with 3 bits of resolution and a maximum usable -3 dB bandwidth of 0.8 GHz to 3.2 GHz.  The processor can be configured as a one-tap to six-tap CT FIR filter and has an active power dissipation that varies from 0.27 mW to 9.5 mW, depending on the amplitude and frequency of the input signal.

description: We investigate the non-parametric, pure ac driven dynamics of nonlinear Klein-Gordon solitary waves having an internal mode of frequency $Ω_i$. We show that the strongest resonance arises when the driving frequency $δ=Ω_i/2$, whereas when $δ=Ω_i$ the resonance is weaker, disappearing for nonzero damping. At resonance, the dynamics of the kink center of mass becomes chaotic. As we identify the resonance mechanism as an {\em indirect} coupling to the internal mode due to its symmetry, we expect similar results for other systems.

description: Residue storage ponds constructed prior to the 1980s were built to the engineering standards that applied at that time. Clay liners were typically used to provide a barrier to flow of contaminants into the natural groundwater system. More recent storage areas include a composite liner consisting of a clay liner and geomembrane and have a drainage layer placed above the liner to reduce the hydrostatic head. This paper presents the engineering design and planning for the conversion of an older residue storage area which had a natural clay liner only into a dry stacking residue storage area to increase the residue storage capacity within the area and at the same time reduce the potential for long term seepage from the area. Field investigations including Piezo-cone Penetrometer Testing (CPTu) and pumping well tests were undertaken. Monitoring instrumentation including Vibrating Wire Piezometers (VWPs) was installed within the saturated residue materials. Dewatering technologies such as deliquoring bores, wick drains and geosynthetic liners between the older deposit of residue and the dry stack deposit were recommended for the control of pore pressures within the existing pond. Numerical analyses to predict the pore-water pressure build-up at the pond base, the influence zone of deliquoring bores, and predicted differential settlements of the surface were also examined. [All papers were considered for technical and language appropriateness by the organizing committee.]

description: This Dissertation is focused on the evolution of massive black hole binaries embedded in gaseous accretion disks. Mergers of massive black holes across a range of mass ratios are powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs) detectable by the future space-based detector, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). In many cases these sources may reside in Active Galactic Nuclei, in which they are embedded in a dense accretion disk. Interactions with surrounding gas can affect their orbital evolution, leaving signatures in both GWs and in electromagnetic emission. First, we present two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of accretion disks with embedded intermediate mass ratio inspirals. We demonstrate that torques from the gas disk can affect a coalescing BH, producing deviations in the GW signal. Whether or not the gas slows down or speeds up the inspiral, and whether the resultant deviation is detectable, is dependent on the system mass ratio, the disk parameters, and the evolutionary stage of the binary. With a suite of simulations varying these characteristics, we elucidate the sensitivity of the gas imprint and its detectability to mass ratio, disk viscosity, and Mach number. Since the characteristic imprint on the GW signal is strongly dependent on disk parameters, a LISA detection of a gas-embedded inspiral would probe the physics of AGN disks and migration. Finally, we explore an electromagnetic signature of a circumbinary disk produced in response to a massive black hole binary merger. With hydrodynamical simulations that resolve the vertical structure of a circumbinary disk, we show that the change in potential produced during the final coalescence of a binary can perturb the surrounding material, producing shocks above the disk midplane, and that this response depends on the disk temperature. This carries implications for the associated emission following the GW signal, which may produce non-thermal radiation that varies with disk properties.

description: Über viele Jahrhunderte hinweg bildete Silber aus den Lagerstätten des Harzes eine wichtige Grundlage der Münzproduktion derjenigen Mächte und Territorialherren, die im Lauf einer wechselvollen Geschichte Anteil am Besitz bzw. der politischen Herrschaft erwarben und somit für die Region Bedeutung erlangten. Die Metallschätze des Harzgebirges bildeten zusammen mit den Ressourcen Wald und Wasser, welche die Grundlagen für die Erzeugung der in der Verarbeitung benötigten Energie darstellten, die hauptsächliche Basis der Ökonomie und des darauf gegründeten sozialen und kulturellen Lebens: Der Harz war über Jahrhunderte hinweg eine weitgehend montanistisch geprägte Gewerbelandschaft. Neben dem für die Münzstätten wichtigen Silber erzeugte man hier Kupfer, Blei, Eisen und Stahl, später Zink und auch Seltenmetalle. In der Wertschöpfung dominierte über Jahrhunderte hinweg das Silber, das hauptsächlich den Münzstätten zufloss. Aus diesem Umstand leitete sich der dominierende Einfluss der jeweils herrschenden Territorialmächte auf das Montanwesen ab, denn sie übten entweder selbst das Münzrecht aus oder vergaben es gegen Abgaben an Dritte. Eine weit reichende Einflussnahme auf das Montanwesen war unabdingbar, um die Münzhoheit praktisch sicherzustellen und aufrecht zu erhalten.
Die grundsätzliche Bedeutung der Lagerstätten des Harzes für das Münzwesen seit dem Mittelalter und bis zur Aufgabe der Silberwährung im letzten Drittel des 19. Jahrhunderts ist seit Langem bekannt und allgemein akzeptiert. Aber hinsichtlich der Bewertung einzelner Lagerstättenkomplexe in diesem Rahmen haben sich durch neuere Forschungen erhebliche Akzentverschiebungen ergeben, auf die nachfolgend eingegangen wird.

description: The elliptic Calogero-Moser Hamiltonian and Lax pair associated with a general simple Lie algebra $\G$ are shown to scale to the (affine) Toda Hamiltonian and Lax pair. The limit consists in taking the elliptic modulus $τ$ and the Calogero-Moser couplings $m$ to infinity, while keeping fixed the combination $M = m e^{i πδτ}$ for some exponent $δ$. Critical scaling limits arise when $1/δ$ equals the Coxeter number or the dual Coxeter number for the untwisted and twisted Calogero-Moser systems respectively; the limit consists then of the Toda system for the affine Lie algebras $\G^{(1)}$ and $(\G ^{(1)})^\vee$. The limits of the untwisted or twisted Calogero-Moser system, for $δ$ less than these critical values, but non-zero, consists of the ordinary Toda system, while for $δ=0$, it consists of the trigonometric Calogero-Moser systems for the algebras $\G$ and $\G^\vee$ respectively.

description: The U.S. health care system of the 21st century is in desperate need of reform. Patients are being harmed in the hundreds of thousands attributable to medical errors, identified as the third leading cause of death in hospitals. The need for health care reform is further validated by the trillions of dollars that are infused into the U.S. health care system, where quality of care benchmarks are among the worst in the world.
      The historical evolution of the U.S. health care system was predicated on nurses who served as advocates and innovators of safe workplace and patient care practices. The Code of Ethics and Nurse Practice Act(s) for registered nurses and the requirements of registered nurse licensure in the 21st century, partnered with an ethical barometer in the delivery of quality patient care, command that registered nurses maintain their historical role as advocates and innovators to promote and maintain safe workplace and patient care practices. Registered nurses in the 21st century are being stifled in the fulfillment of what is commanded of them professionally. It is the quagmire of fulfilling their advocate, innovator role and being penalized with unjust discipline shortly thereafter that is stifling. This “coincidence” is silencing registered nurses across the United States.
      The aim of this study was to employ a hermeneutic phenomenological research design utilizing Max van Manen’s phenomenology of practice to explore the lived experience of unjust discipline among registered nurses. Audio-recorded interviews were conducted with the participants of the study. Vivid descriptions of the participants’ lived experiences of unjust discipline were communicated. Transcripts were generated from the audio recordings. An interpretive analysis utilizing the hermeneutic circle disclosed nine essential themes among the participants’ experiences of unjust discipline. Respondent feedback augmented validity in the interpretive processes during data collection and thematic analysis.
      In the context of the study, it was evident that unjust discipline is a disruptive workplace behavior that potentiated physical workplace violence. Further, authentic social support may have precluded many of the elements of unjust discipline experienced by the participants during the lived experience of unjust discipline.

Signs in Urban Spaces in Ethnic Enclaves: A Case Study of Manhattan Chinatown

Subjects: City planning

Streetscapes (Urban design)

description: This study focuses on signage as an element of physical urban culture, and its role in the development of ethnic enclaves, using Manhattan Chinatown as a case study. The study area is bounded by Canal Street, Baxter Street, Worth Street and Bowery, an area known as the historic core where Chinatown began and still continues to this day. This research takes a closer look at signage in Manhattan Chinatown and its relationship with different stages of development in Chinatown by analyzing the spatial distribution, appearance and additional statistical information on signs in the historic core area across three time periods: 1940, 1980, and 2017. Signage provides direct insight into the struggle between internal and external images of the neighborhood: when there are more commodified, expressive signs, they contribute to how people perceive the space, which further helps external forces shape the community. The shifting characteristics in Manhattan Chinatown’s streetscapes further contributes to the image of the neighborhood and influences the market by changing how the place is perceived by visitors and consumers. This study suggests that in order to preserve or develop the ethnic enclave, one must first understand the conflicting external and internal forces that have been influencing the area. By understanding the balance of these forces, planners can eventually take the image and authenticity of the neighborhood into consideration in the planning process more effectively and with better consideration for the needs and desires of the ethnic community.
Black holes with unusual topology

Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Einstein's equations with a negative cosmological constant admit solutions which are asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Matter fields in anti-de Sitter space can be in stable equilibrium even if the potential energy is unbounded from below, violating the weak energy condition. Hence there is no fundamental reason that black hole's horizons should have spherical topology. In anti-de Sitter space the Einstein's equations admit black hole solutions where the horizon can be a Riemann surface with genus $g$. The case $g=0$ is the asymptotically anti-de Sitter black hole first studied by Hawking-Page, which has spherical topology. The genus one black hole has a new free parameter entering the metric, the conformal class to which the torus belongs. The genus $g>1$ black hole has no other free parameters apart from the mass and the charge. All such black holes exhibits a natural temperature which is identified as the period of the Euclidean continuation and there is a mass formula connecting the mass with the surface gravity and the horizon area of the black hole. The Euclidean action and entropy are computed and used to argue that the mass spectrum of states is positive definite.

SPT – CPT correlations for oilsands tailings sand

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Two commonly used in-situ tests for assessing the density and flow liquefaction susceptibility of sandy soils are the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and the Cone Penetration Test (CPT). A rich case history database exists that relates observed performance during liquefaction events to SPT blow count data that was obtained prior to the widespread implementation of CPT testing. Issues with SPT reliability and productivity have however reduced confidence in this test method. The CPT has proven to be a more reliable and cost effective tool for various applications in geotechnical engineering and can be utilized as a more effective tool for the assessment of flow liquefaction susceptibility. This paper presents a review of SPT-CPT correlations that enable the direct use of CPT data in flow liquefaction assessments. A site-specific qt₁/(N₁)₆₀ ratio of 0.45 is presented that can be useful for the geotechnical engineering community of the oilsands in northern Alberta.

Signs of Neon: Racial Capitalism, Technology, and African American Aesthetics in the Long 1960s

description: This dissertation examines the underexplored importance of technology, and attendant forms of social organization, to artists, writers, and activists in the Civil Rights, Black Power, and Third World era. "Signs of Neon" borrows its title from the 1966 junk sculpture exhibition 66 Signs of Neon, led by the artist Noah Purifoy, in order to signal the ways that for black thought in the period technologies were understood to not simply be "new" and future-oriented, but as part of processes of production involving waste and "junk," histories of racial capitalism, and the racialized distribution of people. It is also intended to signal the importance of aesthetics to both conceptualizing these relationships and to imaging them otherwise. The dissertation analyzes the technological thought of a diverse group of artists and theorists, especially, James and Grace Lee Boggs, Noah Purifoy, the League of Revolutionary Black Workers, Paule Marshall, Charles Burnett, and Martin Luther King Jr. It argues that this was seen as a contradictory moment: because of technologies like automation and cybernation it was potentially liberating, no longer necessitating that black Americans be productive for white wealth, and at the same time one where, as James and Grace Lee Boggs argued, black communities were being technologically "undeveloped." Exploring these potentials and contradictions meant turning to the historically contingent relationship between processes of racialization and technology that dated to plantation slavery. While this was done in explicitly theoretical ways, "Signs of Neon" argues that a significant strain of black aesthetic practice was focused on the technological and that attention to it expands the boundaries of the Black Arts Movement and The Black Aesthetic. Consistent with the era's anthologies, this is an inter-media dissertation. However, instead of works of cultural autonomy these works focus on the processes described above. They suggest that an experimental and capacious black aesthetic practice was a privileged mode for conceptualizing the period's complex technological forms of organization, as well as the aesthetics' capacity for imaging new relationships and potential futures not reproductive for racial capitalism. While this dissertation is a historical one, it's aesthetic and analytical concerns continue to be relevant. In ending it considers the contemporaneity of this group's thought to the present, and especially to what Francoise Vergès has recently termed the "racial capitalocene."

description: In den Jahren 1995 und 2000 entdeckten Privatpersonen im Nördlinger Ries (Schwaben) zwei für die keltische Münzprägetechnik bedeutende Fundkomplexe. Die etwa 10 km auseinanderliegenden FundsteIlen Kleinsorheim und Niederaltheim (beide Landkreis Donau-Ries) liegen 50 km nördlich von Augsburg und 90 km östlich von Stuttgart entfernt und befinden sich am Rande des Nördlinger Rieses, einer der eindrucksvollsten und markantesten geologischen Landschaften auf der Hochfläche der Schwäbisch-Fränkischen Alb. Das Ries, das seine Entstehung einer kosmischen Katastrophe verdankt, besitzt eine annähernd kreisrunde Form von über 20 km Durchmesser bei einer Tiefe von bis zu 150 m. Die daraus resultierenden naturräumlichen Faktoren wie z. B. günstige klimatische Voraussetzungen und eine überdurchschnittlich gute Bodenqualität, boten hervorragende Bedingungen für eine Besiedlung seit prähistorischer Zeit. Im 2. Jahrhundert v.Chr. ist eine deutliche Aufsiedlung am Südrand des Rieskraterbeckens zu beobachten, die sich durch eine große Zahl von spätkeltischen Funden zu erkennen gibt. Aus diesem Umfeld stammen auch die beiden Fundkomplexe, die als Zeichen für einen hohen Standard handwerklichen Schaffens in der ausgehenden Latenezeit anzusehen sind.
