description: Στα πλαίσια της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας επιχειρείται η διεξοδική μελέτη της δεξιάς πρόσληψης των Ιουλιανών. Με άλλα λόγια, εξετάζονται οι όψεις της πολιτικής αντίδρασης της Δεξιάς στην πολιτική κρίση του θέρους του 1965. Αν θέλαμε να περιγράψουμε συνοπτικά το αντικείμενο που πραγματεύεται η εν λόγω διπλωματική εργασία, θα λέγαμε ότι το διακύβευμα είναι να προσπαθήσουμε να δείξουμε πώς οι πολιτικές, οι διανοητικές και οι δημοσιογραφικές ελίτ της Δεξιάς προσλαμβάνουν, αποκωδικοποιούν και αντιδρούν στα γεγονότα και τις εξελίξεις που συνθέτουν το σκηνικό της πολιτικής κρίσης της 15ης Ιουλίου του 1965. Τα προαναφερθέντα εξετάζονται μέσα από τα όσα γράφονται και σχολιάζονται από τις εφημερίδες του συντηρητικού Τύπου της εποχής, συγκεκριμένα από την «Καθημερινή» και από τον «Ελληνικό Βορρά».
description: In the context of this thesis attempted a thorough study of the right intake of Iouliana. In other words, this thesis examines aspects of political reaction of the Right to the political crisis of summer 1965. If we wish to describe briefly the subject of researching this thesis, we could say that the challenge is to try to show how the political, intellectual and journalistic elite of the Right understand, decode and react to events and developments that make the scene of the political crisis of July 15, 1965. The above studied through what is written and discussed by the newspapers of the conservative press of the era, specifically the "Kathimerini" and the "Ellinikos Vorras".

description: In this study, the adhesion-detachment behaviour of a gecko-inspired adhesive pad was investigated to understand the on/off switching mechanisms of adhesion in gecko feet. A macroscopic spatula model was fabricated using silicone rubber, and adhesion tests combining lateral sliding and vertical debonding were conducted. It was observed that the contact state and the adhesion force of the pad vary considerably with the direction of lateral sliding prior to debonding, and that the pad achieves adhesion during debonding even when it loses contact due to excess lateral sliding. These results explain the mechanisms behind the on/off switching and stable adhesion of gecko feet, and suggest the possibility of developing new-generation adhesives capable of switchable adhesion.
Landslide initiation : a unified geostatistical and probabilistics modellin technique for terrain stability assessment
Creators: name: Wilkinson, John M.T.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Five open slope, translational landslides which have occurred on four separate clear-cut hillslopes in coastal British Columbia are described in terms of their qualitative, geomorphological characteristics and their hydrogeological response to extreme precipitation. The design and operation of a displacement rate controlled, large scale, in-situ direct shear box, which was used to conduct shear strength tests at three of the four locations and on laboratory-reconstituted samples, is described. A mean friction angle of 47° and a root or soil structure cohesion of 1.5 kPa is interpreted from the in-situ and laboratory testing program to be appropriate for the tested shallow, colluvial gravelly sands. Approximately eight years of near-continuous, shallow piezometric data, collected at the Carnation Creek Experimental Watershed by the Canadian Forest Service, are used to determine the piezometric response of shallow colluvial soils to extreme precipitation events and to determine an appropriate probabilistic distribution for use in Monte Carlo-like simulations of slope stability. An extreme value distribution, which is dependent on the duration of observation, is proposed for this purpose. Piezometric data and the results of infinite slope stability back-analyses indicate the potential for short-term pore pressures which are in excess of hydrostatic pressures, and potentially artesian, to develop during extreme precipitation events. Optimized terrain attribute data, collected by the British Columbia Ministry of Forests, for a subset of 1,526 mapped terrain polygons are combined with the results of Monte Carlo-like slope stability simulations of the same polygons to create a unified, geostatistical (qualitative terrain attributes) and probabilistic (quantitative slope stability) landslide initiation model. The resulting probabilities of initiation, P(In), for each polygon are compared to existing slope stability assessment techniques used in the forest sector. The proposed assessment technique is intended to represent one component of a multi-disciplinary, quantitative risk assessment approach which considers all hazards to downslope resources and the specific risk of each element at risk.

description: We show that strong magnetic fields can be generated at shock waves associated with formation of galaxies or clusters of galaxies by the Weibel instability, an instability in collisionless plasmas. The estimated strength of the magnetic field generated through this mechanism is close to the order of values observed in galaxies or clusters of galaxies at present, which indicates that strong amplification of magnetic fields after formation of galaxies or clusters of galaxies is not required. This mechanism could have worked even at a redshift of ~10, and therefore the generated magnetic fields may have affected the formation of stars at the early universe. This model will be confirmed by future observations of nearby clusters of galaxies. In this context, we also present the Japanese X-ray missions.

description: Kinetics of magnetic flux in a thin mesoscopic ring biased by a strong external magnetic field is described equivalently by dynamics of a Brownian particle in a tilted washboard potential. The 'flux velocity', i.e. the averaged time derivative of the total magnetic flux in the ring, is a candidate for a novel characteristics of mesoscopic rings. Its global properties reflect the possibility of accommodating persistent currents in the ring.

description: We study the effect of wind anisotropies on the stellar evolution leading to collapsars. Rotating models of a 60 M$_\odot$ star with $Ω/Ω_{\rm crit}=0.75$ on the ZAMS, accounting for shellular rotation and a magnetic field, with and without wind anisotropies, are computed at $Z$=0.002 until the end of the core He-burning phase. Only the models accounting for the effects of the wind anisotropies retain enough angular momentum in their core to produce a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB). The chemical composition is such that a type Ic supernova event occurs. Wind anisotropies appear to be a key physical ingredient in the scenario leading to long GRBs.

description: We study the persistent currents of an attractive Fermi gas confined in a tightly-confining ring trap and subjected to an artificial gauge field all through the BCS-BEC crossover. At weak attractions, on the BCS side, fermions display a parity effect in the persistent currents, ie their response to the gauge field is paramagnetic or diamagnetic depending on the number of pairs on the ring. At resonance and on the BEC side of the crossover we find a doubling of the periodicity of the ground-state energy as a function of the artificial gauge field and disappearance of the parity effect, indicating that persistent currents can be used to infer the formation of tightly-bound bosonic pairs. Our predictions can be accessed in ultracold atoms experiments through noise interferograms.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. The prevailing theory regarding the foraging habits of small pelagic fish (SPF) suggests that size-based resource partitioning is largely responsible for their biomass fluctuations in upwelling areas of the world. In the northeastern Mediterranean Sea (NEM), a temperate non-upwelling area, studies on the trophic ecology of European anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) and European sardine (Sardina pilchardus) indicate that both species generally rely on the same zooplankton resources. The small differences detected in their diet regarding sources of dietary carbon, showed no strong signs of size-based resource partitioning. Differences were mainly seasonal, i.e. between stratification (summer) and mixing (winter) periods, with a broadening of the food niche in summer and narrowing in winter, in both terms of size and species consumed. The observed differences are discussed relatively with the structure and function of the pelagic food web in the area, after incorporating concurrently collected field information on plankton, ranging from bacteria to mesozooplankton. Additionally, information on daily fish consumption, per capita food availability and size of consumed preys are provided given their importance for the two-way coupling of lower trophic level models with fish bioenergetics models that are increasingly being developed as potential tools in the ecosystem-based fisheries management.

description: We re-examine previously found cosmological solutions to eleven-dimensional supergravity in the light of the E_{10}-approach to M-theory. We focus on the solutions with non zero electric field determined by geometric configurations (n_m, g_3), n\leq 10. We show that these solutions are associated with rank $g$ regular subalgebras of E_{10}, the Dynkin diagrams of which are the (line) incidence diagrams of the geometric configurations. Our analysis provides as a byproduct an interesting class of rank-10 Coxeter subgroups of the Weyl group of E_{10}.

Did Samuel Bronston Commit Perjury? A Study in Discourse Semantics

description: In the landmark case Bronston v. US, the Supreme Court put forward a reading of the perjury statute according to which one could only be tried for perjury on the basis of what one had stated, not what was implicated. This decision has given rise to a number of theoretical and practical problems, best detailed in Tiersma (1990) and Douglis (2018). This article argues that a formal investigation of discourse structure, of the type developed in Asher and Lascarides (2003), coupled with an understanding of the role of ellipsis in discourse, allows us to develop a framework that captures those instances of perjury that seem to fall through the cracks of the literal truth condition without introducing speaker’s intent on the solution. The crucial idea that the analysis hinges on is the notion that an indirect answer to a question is a two-node discourse with an elliptical polarity answer. Approaches based on Grice’s implicatures or speaker’s communicative intent are discussed and shown to be inadequate. Cite as: López, JLL 10 (2021), 1–23, DOI: 10.14762/jll.2021.001

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Northern shrimp is targeted by commercial fisheries but is also of great importance as prey in the marine food web. In some cases consumption may be of greater importance than commercial fishing and should therefore be included in stock assessment of the prey species. The main objective of this study is to use stomach content data to produce estimates of consumption on shrimp by two gadoid species, cod and haddock, in a small local inshore area. The density of both gadoid species increased in 1996 and has remained relatively high since 2004. At the same time the shrimp density decreased. In the past five years shrimp has become more important in the diet of the gadoid species and the consumption has increased. Consumption by haddock on shrimp increased in the study period and the influence of haddock is greater than before. The increase in consumption by cod and haddock in the past years indicate that it needs to be included in the assessment of shrimp in the area.
Dynamic structure factors of a strongly interacting Fermi superfluid near an orbital Feshbach resonance across the phase transition from BCS to Sarma superfluid

description: We theoretically investigate dynamic structure factors of a strongly interacting Fermi superfluid near an orbital Feshbach resonance with random phase approximation, and find their dynamical characters during the phase transition between a balanced conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superfluid and a polarized Sarma superfluid by continuously varying the chemical potential difference of two spin components. In a BEC-like regime of the BCS superfluid, dynamic structure factors can do help to distinguish the in-phase ground state from the out-of-phase metastable state by the relative location of molecular excitation and Leggett mode, or the minimum energy to break a Cooper pair. In the phase transition between BCS and Sarma superfluid, we find the dynamic structure factor of Sarma superfluid has its own specific gapless excitation at a small transferred momentum which is mixed with the collective phonon excitation, and also a relatively strong atomic excitation at a large transferred momentum because of the existence of unpaired Fermi atoms, these signals can be used to differentiate Sarma superfluid from BCS superfluid.

description: The theory of nonlinear diffraction of intensive light beams propagating through photorefractive media is developed. Diffraction occurs on a reflecting wire embedded in the nonlinear medium at relatively small angle with respect to the direction of the beam propagation. It is shown that this process is analogous to the generation of waves by a flow of a superfluid past an obstacle. The ``equation of state'' of such a superfluid is determined by the nonlinear properties of the medium. On the basis of this hydrodynamic analogy, the notion of the ``Mach number'' is introduced where the transverse component of the wave vector plays the role of the fluid velocity. It is found that the Mach cone separates two regions of the diffraction pattern: inside the Mach cone oblique dark solitons are generated and outside the Mach cone the region of ``ship waves'' is situated. Analytical theory of ``ship waves'' is developed and two-dimensional dark soliton solutions of the equation describing the beam propagation are found. Stability of dark solitons with respect to their decay into vortices is studied and it is shown that they are stable for large enough values of the Mach number.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Ocean acidification (OA) has been suggested as posing a major threat to commercial fisheries worldwide, both directly through physiological impacts (e.g. on commercial shellfish) but also indirectly through ‘bottom-up’ influences on higher trophic-level organisms including important finfish species. Echinoderms and bivalve molluscs are thought to be particularly vulnerable to low pH as a result of their high-magnesium skeletons. In the present analysis we have demonstrated that these benthic organisms are important prey resources for dab, haddock, and plaice in the North Sea and that predation on these benthic invertebrates occurs throughout the whole region and in every season of the year

Οι κεραίες που μελετήσαμε καλύπτουν τη συχνοτική περιοχή της ψηφιακής τηλεόρασης (470-862 MHz), της κινητής τηλεφωνίας (GSM 900/1800) και της ζώνης ISM. Οι κεραίες χρησιμοποιήθηκαν για τη μέτρηση της διαθέσιμης ενέργειας που υπάρχει ελεύθερη και δωρεάν στο περιβάλλον, με στόχο τη μετέπειτα συλλογή και αποθήκευση της. Αρχικά, πραγματοποιήσαμε το χαρακτηρισμό των κεραιών, με τη μέτρηση του συντελεστή ανάκλασης, με τη βοήθεια ενός διανυσματικού αναλυτή δικτύου, και τη μέτρηση του διαγράμματος ακτινοβολίας στον ανηχοϊκό θάλαμο. Επιπρόσθετα, παρουσιάζεται μια σειρά μετρήσεων της ηλεκτρομαγνητικής ισχύος που μπορούμε να συλλέξουμε από το περιβάλλον στο εύρος συχνοτήτων 400 MHz-2.5GHz σε εξωτερικό και εσωτερικό περιβάλλον. Επίσης, μετρήσαμε την ισχύ που μπορούμε να συλλέξουμε από το κινητό τηλέφωνο και το φούρνο μικροκυμάτων. Στο τέλος, τα προβλήματα της συλλογής ενέργειας από το περιβάλλον συζητούνται και προτάσεις για μελλοντική μελέτη παρουσιάζονται.
description: The aim of the present thesis was the design, optimization and fabrication of flexible and cheap antennas. These antennas work at the frequency band of digital television (470-862 MHz), mobile telephony (GSM 900/1800) and ISM band. The antennas are used for ambient energy harvesting measurements, as ambient energy is free and can be collected and stored. Initially, antenna characterization is presented, by measuring the return loss, using a vector network analyzer and the radiation pattern in the anechoic chamber. Additionally, ambient energy harvesting measurements are presented at frequencies 400 MHz-2.5 GHz in indoor and outdoor environment. We also measured the electromagnetic energy we can harvest from a cell phone and a microwave oven. Finally, energy harvesting problems are discussed and future work is suggested.

description: Observations of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) with Swift produced the initially surprising result that many bursts have large X-ray flares superimposed on the underlying afterglow. These flares were sometimes intense, rapid, and late relative to the nominal prompt phase. The most intense of these flares was observed by XRT with a flux >500 the afterglow. This burst then surprised observers by flaring again after >10000 s. The intense flare can be most easily understood within the context of the standard fireball model, if the internal engine that powers the prompt GRB emission is still active at late times. Recent observations indicate that X-ray flares are detected in ~1/3 of XRT detected afterglows. By studying the properties of the varieties of flares (such as rise/fall time, onset time, spectral variability, etc.) and relating them to overall burst properties, models of flare production and the GRB internal engine can be constrained.

description: Due to their high force sensitivity, mechanical resonators combining low mechanical dissipation with a small motional mass are highly demanded in fields as diverse as resonant force imaging, mass sensing, or cavity optomechanics. "Soft-clamping" is a phononic engineering technique by which mechanical modes of highly-stressed membranes or strings are localized away from lossy regions, thereby enabling ultrahigh-Q for ng-scale devices. Here, we report on parasitic modes arising from the finite size of the structure which can significantly degrade the performance of these membranes. Through interferometric measurements and finite-element simulations, we show that these parasitic modes can hybridize with the localized modes of our structures, reducing the quality factors by up to one order of magnitude. To circumvent this problem, we engineer the spectral profile of the parasitic modes in order to avoid their overlap with the high-Q defect mode. We verify via a statistical analysis that this modal engineering reproducibly yields higher quality factors in fabricated devices, consistent with theoretically predicted values.

description: Millimeter observations of disks around young stars reveal substructures indicative of gas pressure traps that may aid grain growth and planet formation. We present Submillimeter Array observations of HD 34700- two Herbig Ae stars in a close binary system (Aa/Ab, $\sim$0.25 AU), surrounded by a disk presenting a large cavity and spiral arms seen in scattered light, and two distant, lower mass companions. These observations include 1.3 mm continuum emission and the $^{12}$CO 2-1 line at $\sim0.5$" (178 AU) resolution. They resolve a prominent azimuthal asymmetry in the continuum, and Keplerian rotation of a circumbinary disk in the $^{12}$CO line. The asymmetry is located at a radius of $155^{+11}_{-7}$ AU, consistent with the edge of the scattered light cavity, being resolved in both radius ($72 ^{+14}_{-15}$ AU) and azimuth (FWHM = $64 ^{\circ +8}_{-7}$). The strong asymmetry in millimeter continuum emission could be evidence for a dust trap, together with the more symmetric morphology of $^{12}$CO emission and small grains. We hypothesize an unseen circumbinary companion, responsible for the cavity in scattered light and creating a vortex at the cavity edge that manifests in dust trapping. The disk mass has limitations imposed by the detection of $^{12}$CO and non-detection of $^{13}$CO. We discuss its consequences for the potential past gravitational instability of this system, likely accounting for the rapid formation of a circumbinary companion. We also report the discovery of resolved continuum emission associated with HD 34700B (projected separation $\sim1850$AU), which we explain through a circumstellar disk.

description: We use the recent supernova data set from the ESSENCE collaboration combined with data from the Supernova Legacy Survey and nearby supernovae to test the DGP brane world model and its generalisations. Combination of this data with a flatness prior and the position of the peak of the CMB disfavours the DGP model slightly. Inclusion of the baryon acoustic peak from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey increase the tension of the DGP model with the data, although it is not clear how self consistent this procedure would be without a re-analysis of the survey data in the framework of the DGP cosmology. Generalisations of the DGP model are tested and constraints on relevant parameters obtained.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. In order to analyse the food web dynamics of the Gulf of Riga monthly sampling of phytoplankton, zooplankton biomass and herring food composition was performed during 2011 and 2012. Based on these data, an Ecopath model was set up to describe the food web dynamics, mainly focusing on the role of herring. The Ecopath results suggest that zooplankton has a pivotal role for energy flows in the food web. However, herring has also an important grazing effect on the zooplankton community, especially during the spring period when zooplankton acts as a limiting factor in herring recruitment in years when zooplankton biomass is low.

description: The Scanning Quantum Cryogenic Atom Microscope (SQCRAMscope) is a quantum sensor in which a quasi-1D quantum gas images electromagnetic fields emitted from a nearby sample. We report improvements to the microscope. Cryogen usage is reduced by replacing the liquid cryostat with a closed-cycle system and modified cold finger, and cryogenic cooling is enhanced by adding a radiation shield. The minimum accessible sample temperature is reduced from 35 K to 5.8 K while maintaining low sample vibrations. A new sample mount is easier to exchange, and quantum gas preparation is streamlined.

description: Τα μίνι εμφυτεύματα (εμφυτεύματα με διάμετρο 1,8-2,4 χιλιοστά) σχεδιάστηκαν αρχικά για να στηρίξουν μεταβατικές αποκαταστάσεις, μέχρι να ολοκληρωθεί η οστεοενσωμάτωση των μόνιμων εμφυτευμάτων που είχαν τοποθετηθεί. Κατά την προσπάθεια αφαίρεσής τους όμως, παρατηρήθηκε πως αυτά ήταν πλήρως οστεοενσωματωμένα και η εξαγωγή τους ήταν αδύνατη. Η παρατήρηση αυτή οδήγησε στη διάδοση της χρήσης τους σε αρκετές ακόμη περιπτώσεις όπως : α) στη στήριξη επένθετων ολικών οδοντοστοιχιών στην άνω και κάτω γνάθο β) στη στήριξη ακίνητων αποκαταστάσεων σε ειδικές περιπτώσεις όπως σε μικρό μήκος των νωδών περιοχών ή σε οξύαιχμες φατνιακές ακρολοφίες με ελαττωμένο εύρος παρειο-γλωσσικά και γ) στην ορθοδοντική, όπου χρησιμοποιούνται ως προσωρινές συσκευές στήριξης για να επιτευχθούν μετακινήσεις δοντιών κατά την ορθοδοντική θεραπεία. Ο σκοπός της μελέτης είναι η ανασκόπηση της βιβλιογραφίας σχετικά με τα εμφυτεύματα μικρής διαμέτρου, η ανάλυση των πλεονεκτημάτων και των μειονεκτημάτων τους, η αναφορά των ενδείξεων και των αντενδείξεων τοποθέτησης καθώς και η λεπτομερής παρουσίαση της τεχνικής τοποθέτησης σε κάθε περίπτωση.
description: Mini dental implants (1.8-2.4 mm diameter) had been used primarily as transitional or as temporary implants to support temporary prosthesis while larger implants were undergoing osseointegration. However, during the process of their removal, it was observed that these implants were fully osseointegrated. This observation resulted in using mini dental implants in more cases such as: a) supporting removable prosthesis in upper and lower jaw b) supporting fixed prosthesis in selective cases such as inadequate interdental space or reduced width of the residual ridge and c) in Orthodontics, where mini implants are used as temporary anchorage devices and can control dental movements during orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study is to review the literature concerning mini dental implants, to list advantages and disadvantages, indications and contraindications and to present in details the process in each case.
Surface pollution of main-sequence stars through encounters with AGB ejecta in omega Centauri

description: The origin of a double main-sequence (MS) in omega Centauri is explored. We have shown from theoretical calculations on the stellar evolution that the colors of MS stars are shifted to those of the observed blue MS if the surface layers are polluted by He-rich materials with the mass of ~ 0.1 solar mass. Stars are supposed to be polluted through numerous encounters with the ejecta descended from massive asymptotic giant-branch (AGB) stars. Two populations of stars with different kinematics exceptionally observed in omega Cen indicate that kinematically cooler stars are more polluted through encounters with AGB ejecta than kinematically hotter ones because the accretion rate is inversely proportional to the cube of the relative velocity. We propose that both of these factors split the MS in omega Cen. This theoretical scheme explains why only omega Cen exhibit a double MS and matches the amount of He necessary to produce the blue MS with that supplied from massive AGB stars. Furthermore, we predict that even if globular clusters (GCs) possess only one generation of stars, the velocity dispersion of stars broaden the MS in the color-magnitude diagram as long as the GCs are massive enough to keep the AGB ejecta after the burst of star formation. This view explains the broad MS recently found in the GC NGC 2808 which exhibits no scatter in [Fe/H] and thus is likely to consist of a single generation of stars unlike the case of omega Cen.

Qualitative properties of systems of 2 complex homogeneous ODE's: a connection to polygonal billiards

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: A correspondence between the orbits of a system of 2 complex, homogeneous, polynomial ordinary differential equations with real coefficients and those of a polygonal billiard is displayed. This correspondence is general, in the sense that it applies to an open set of systems of ordinary differential equations of the specified kind. This allows to transfer results well-known from the theory of polygonal billiards, such as ergodicity, the existence of periodic orbits, the absence of exponential divergence, the existence of additional conservation laws, and the presence of discontinuities in the dynamics, to the corresponding systems of ordinary differential equations. It also shows that the considerable intricacy known to exist for polygonal billiards, also attends these apparently simpler systems of ordinary differential equations.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. This study estimated the strength of trophic interactions among functional groups of fish species on the northewest Atlantic coastal shelf. Multispecies biomass-dynamics models were fit to time series of catch and abundance data. The fitted models provide strong support for trophic interactions among the functional groups. The sustainable yield of each functional group depends on the harvest levels of interacting groups

description: The notion of a formally smooth bimodule is introduced and its basic properties are analyzed. In particular it is proven that a $B$-$A$ bimodule $M$ which is a generator left $B$-module is formally smooth if and only if the $M$-Hochschild dimension of $B$ is at most one. It is also shown that modules $M$ which are generators in the category $σ[M]$ of $M$-subgenerated modules provide natural examples of formally smooth bimodules.

Τέλος πραγματοποιήθηκε συσχετισμός των επιπτώσεων με την παρουσία και λειτουργία των φραγμάτων και των συνοδών ταμιευτήρων ή/ και με τις πιέσεις που αναπτύσσονται στις μελετώμενες λεκάνες απορροής (σημειακές και διάχυτες).
description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of the effects of dams at “Rivers’ Continuum” through the case studies of rivers Aliakmonas, Axios and Strymonas. For this purpose there was examined the water quality upstream and downstream of the dams according to the Water Framework Directive (WFD), based on hydromorphological and physical-chemical parameters, biological indexes and benthic macroinvertabrates composition. There was also examined the effects of dams on the validity of the principles of “River Continuum Concept” through the special cases of the above rivers. Finally applied correlation of the effects with the presence and function of dams and their reservoirs or/and the pressures established on the studied basins (point and diffuse).

description: In this review we discuss several fundamental processes taking place in semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs) when their electron subsystem interacts with electromagnetic (EM) radiation. The physical phenomena of light emission and EM energy transfer from a QD exciton to other electronic systems such as neighbouring nanocrystals and polarisable 3D (semi-infinite dielectric or metal) and 2D (graphene) materials are considered. The cases of direct (II-VI) and indirect (silicon) band gap semiconductors are compared. We also cover the relevant non-radiative mechanisms such as the Auger process, electron capture on dangling bonds and interaction with phonons. The emphasis is on explaining the underlying physics and illustrating it with calculated and experimental results in a comprehensive, tutorial manner.
Numerical model of wave effects on permeable vertical barriers above the seabed
Creators: name: Yang, Gang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis describes a numerical model used to predict the interaction of a regular small amplitude wave train with a thin permeable vertical barrier extending from the water surface to some distance above the seabed. The case of wave interactions with a pair of such barriers is also treated. The approach used is based on an eigenfunction expansion method and utilizes a boundary condition at the barrier surface which accounts for energy dissipation within the barrier. Comparisons of results based on the method have been carried out with those of previous numerical studies for related situations, and close agreement has been obtained in all such cases. A selection of results based on the method are presented for the transmission, reflection, and energy dissipation coefficients, the wave runup, and the maximum horizontal force on the barrier. These exhibit various features of interest which are discussed. The numerical model is written in the FORTRAN language. With appropriate input, it can be used to calculate wave interactions with one or two barriers under a wide range of conditions. It is confirmed that the results of the numerical model are consistent for various limiting conditions including those of a solid barrier, a fully transparent barrier, and a barrier extending to the seabed. Overall, the numerical model is found to provide a reasonably flexible and reliable means of predicting wave effects on thin permeable vertical barriers.
