description: В статье представлены результаты комплексного палеоантропологического исследования человеческих останков из сооружения 6 (горн), выявленного в результате археологических работ в западной части Болгарского городища (раскоп CCXVI) в 2016 г. Останки были разрознены и находились в сооружении в основном в перемешанном состоянии. В ходе тщательного изучения морфологических особенностей фрагментов с учетом половых и возрастных особенностей костей удалось определить, что они принадлежат 7-ми индивидам троим мужчинам, двум женщинам и двоим детям. Характер захоронения останков, состав костей, их анатомическая неполнота, а также специфика разрушений, в том числе, следы смертельных ранений, позволяют утверждать, что все индивиды погибли насильственной смертью. Нет никаких сомнений в том, что это не только результат военных действий, но и следствие какой-то экзекуции (казни?). Вполне вероятно, что останки попали в горн уже полуразложившимися, в результате санитарной очистки города от тел погибших в социальном конфликте жителей.

description: Aims. Clinical data indicating a heart rate (HR) target during rate control therapy for permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) and assessing its eventual relationship with reduced exercise tolerance are lacking. The present study aims at investigating the impact of resting HR on the hemodynamic response to exercise in permanent AF patients by means of a computational cardiovascular model. Methods. The AF lumped-parameter model was run to simulate resting (1 Metabolic Equivalent of Task-MET) and various exercise conditions (4 METs: brisk walking; 6 METs: skiing; 8 METs: running), considering different resting HR (70 bpm for the slower resting HR-SHR simulations, and 100 bpm for the higher resting HR-HHR simulations). To compare relative variations of cardiovascular variables upon exertion, the variation comparative index (VCI) - the absolute variation between the exercise and the resting values in SHR simulations referred to the absolute variation in HHR simulations -was calculated at each exercise grade (VCI4, VCI6 and VCI8). Results. Pulmonary venous pressure underwent a greater increase in HHR compared to SHR simulations (VCI4 = 0.71, VCI6 = 0.73 and VCI8 = 0.77), while for systemic arterial pressure the opposite is true (VCI4 = 1.15, VCI6 = 1.36, VCI8 = 1.56). Conclusions. The computational findings suggest that a slower, with respect to a higher resting HR, might be preferable in permanent AF patients, since during exercise pulmonary venous pressure undergoes a slighter increase and systemic blood pressure reveals a more appropriate increase.

Subjects: Clinical Psychology

description: This thesis highlighted that individuals with a history of childhood mild, moderate and severe traumatic brain injury have higher rates of ongoing anxiety disorders, that can persist more than 10 years after their injury. These anxiety disorders include general anxiety, panic attacks and specific phobias. In these individuals with childhood traumatic brain injury, factors such as being female, having a more severe head injury, and having difficulties associated with the frontal lobe of the brain, significantly increase the risk of developing anxiety later on in life. This is important for future research regarding outcomes of traumatic brain injury, and highlights the need for treatment and intervention for these individuals.

description: В 2012-2016 гг. в раскопе CLXXIX на Болгарском городище было выявлено свыше 2200 монет. Кроме золотоордынских в раскопе были обнаружены 2 монеты Х в. и 7 российских монет XVIII начала XX вв. 15 восточных монет предварительно были определены как иранские. Выявление большого количество монет связано с нахождением на данной территории базара. Вероятно, здесь же располагался монетный двор, на что указывает находка монетного чекана и 5 монетных кладов серебряных монет XIII столетия. 2 саманидские монеты Х в. указывает, что население данную территорию осваивало с рубежа IX-X вв., в XIIIXIV вв. она превращается в центр большого восточного города.

description: Context. Small-scale bright features in the photosphere of the Sun, such as faculae or G-band bright points, appear in connection with small-scale magnetic flux concentrations. Aims. Here we report on a new class of photospheric bright points that are free of magnetic fields. So far, these are visible in numerical simulations only. We explore conditions required for their observational detection. Methods. Numerical radiation (magneto-)hydrodynamic simulations of the near-surface layers of the Sun were carried out. The magnetic field-free simulations show tiny bright points, reminiscent of magnetic bright points, only smaller. A simple toy model for these non-magnetic bright points (nMBPs) was established that serves as a base for the development of an algorithm for their automatic detection. Basic physical properties of 357 detected nMBPs were extracted and statistically evaluated. We produced synthetic intensity maps that mimic observations with various solar telescopes to obtain hints on their detectability. Results. The nMBPs of the simulations show a mean bolometric intensity contrast with respect to their intergranular surroundings of approximately 20%, a size of 60-80 km, and the isosurface of optical depth unity is at their location depressed by 80-100 km. They are caused by swirling downdrafts that provide, by means of the centripetal force, the necessary pressure gradient for the formation of a funnel of reduced mass density that reaches from the subsurface layers into the photosphere. Similar, frequently occurring funnels that do not reach into the photosphere, do not produce bright points. Conclusions. Non-magnetic bright points are the observable manifestation of vertically extending vortices (vortex tubes) in the photosphere. The resolving power of 4-m-class telescopes, such as the DKIST, is needed for an unambiguous detection of them.

Sentimental songs, melodrama and the nature of filmic narrative in Hindi cinema (1951-1963)
Creators: name: Dean, Jasmine Sofia Jannif
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis examines the dominance of the melodramatic voice in Hindi popular cinema, traces its emergence and analyses its consolidation between 1951 and 1963 - a period often referred to as the "Golden age of Hindi cinema". Sentimental songs during this period came to dominate Hindi cinema not only because of their own aesthetic power, but also because of their direct connection to the narrative structure of films. After examining the place of songs and dramatic performance since the arrival of talkies in 1931, the thesis moves to a more detailed discussion of the power of songs and music, their emotional appeal, and their place in the narrative flow of the films of the 1950s and early 1960s. The analysis links songs to cinematic genres including the melodramatic epics, to the work of key auteurs, and to reception aesthetics, notably rasa theory. The thesis argues that there is an emotional dimension to Hindi cinema which songs of this period carefully construct, and this construction elicits moments of "cathartic" experience from the spectator. Here the classic rasas of karunā [the tragic] and śringāra [the erotic] play an important role in connecting narratives to the moods captured in the songs. The analysis provides a broad overview of characteristics from films of the period 1951-1963 - notably their generic registers, their singers, their musicians, their modds and their rasas - and presents a close reading of a selection of key films and songs to identify specific examples of the melodramatic voice.

description: В работе изучены 26 фрагментов сфероконических сосудов из материалов Болгарского городища (Р.200 исследования 2014 г. под руководством М.В. Сивицкого и А.Г. Ситдикова). В аналитическую выборку вошли сосуды из культурных напластований городища, преимущественно позднего золотоордынского времени (середина XIV начало XV вв.). Внутренние, средние и внешние слои керамических фрагментов были исследованы на предмет химического состава эмиссионным спектральным анализом и масс-спектрометрией. По основному составу образцы разделились на три группы, один артефакт имеет совершенно отличающийся состав, что свидетельствует об особом происхождении сосуда. Интерпретация аналитических данных показала повышенные содержания ртути в средних и внутренних слоях для большинства фрагментов. Для этих же образцов отмечается обратная корелляция между ртутью и мышьяком. Согласно литературным данным, алхимики использовали соединения мышьяка в экспериментах со ртутью для получения «философского камня». Возможно этим можно объяснить зафиксированную обратную корелляцию. В нескольких фрагментах зафиксировано повышенное содержание серебра, что также может свидетельствовать об алхимических опытах.

description: Graphene mechanical resonators are the ultimate two-dimensional nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) with applications in sensing and signal processing. While initial devices have shown promising results, an ideal graphene NEMS resonator should be strain engineered, clamped at the edge without trapping gas underneath, and electrically integratable. In this letter, we demonstrate fabrication and direct electrical measurement of circular SU-8 polymer-clamped chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene drum resonators. The clamping increases device yield and responsivity, while providing a cleaner resonance spectrum from eliminated edge modes. Furthermore, this resonator is highly strained, indicating its potential in strain engineering for performance enhancement.

Breeding ecology and ornamentation in the long-tailed finch

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The Long-tailed Finch (Poephila acuticauda) is an endemic Australian grassfinch (Estrildid) inhabiting the tropical northern savanna of Australia. Ecologically it is very similar to the well-studied Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata) and the endangered Gouldian Finch (Erythrura gouldiae) - sharing the same geographic range, but yet has not declined. -- Here, in the first extensive field study of the breeding ecology and behaviour of this species, I describe the general breeding ecology of the Long-tailed Finch including mate and site fidelity while drawing a comparison with the zebra finch, and also describe the first observation of cooperative breeding ever recorded for this species. -- The Long-tailed Finch possesses several putative ornaments in both sexes including elongated tail streamers, a black throat patch and variation in bill colour. In this study I show that this species is slightly dimorphic in expression of ornamentation thereby removing evidence for the sexual indistinguishability theory. As pairs did not mate assortatively based on ornament expression, mate choice in this wild population did not seem to be based on ornament expression and ornament expression did not seem to signal reproductive success in males or females. This species has low levels of extra-pair paternity, but choice for extra-pair mates does not seem to be based on ornament expression or improve offspring quality. Parental nest visit synchrony is high in this species and has a limited effect on breeding success. Further, parental ornamentation does not signal parental quality and does not affect nestling growth. -- The mutual multiple 'ornaments' in this species therefore do not currently seem to be under sexual selection, but might play an important role in species recognition.

Towards declarative smart contracts

description: With the exception of some well-funded industries, legal documents remain difficult and expensive to use, and prone to ambiguities. Emerging blockchain technologies hold the promise of changing this, however the tools for coding these 'smart contracts' require programmers and are prone to fraud. To fully realise the benefits of smart contracts, widespread adoption is required, which depends on improving security and replacing programmers with tools that lawyers, business-people and the general public can use. Our objective is to investigate improved approaches to the creation, testing and deployment of smart contracts by demonstrating that pure declarative languages can be used, and that these facilitate achieving improved utility in smart contracts. Our investigation implemented a 'Will and Testament' as a smart contract on a custom simulator, and demonstrated improved utility by auto-generating a smart contract from a status-quo user interface with an untrained user. We found a number of small benefits to using a declarative language like simplification, ease of code auto-generation and ease of testing. We have identified an approach to smart contract creation supportive of adoption because conversion starts with current legal contacts, is tolerant of varying levels of automation, and allows human-in-the-loop interaction. Smart contracts are seen as game changing by many, and should issues with cost, usability and security be solved, the economic impact is likely to be large.

description: We assume the direct sum o  for the signal subspace. As a result of post- measurement, a number of operational contexts presuppose the a priori knowledge of the LB -dimensional "interfering" subspace  and the goal is to estimate the LA am- plitudes corresponding to subspace . Taking into account the knowledge of the orthogonal "interfering" subspace \perp, the Bayesian estimation lower bound is de- rivedfortheLA-sparsevectorinthedoublyasymptoticscenario,i.e. N,LA,LB -> \infty with a finite asymptotic ratio. By jointly exploiting the Compressed Sensing (CS) and the Random Matrix Theory (RMT) frameworks, closed-form expressions for the lower bound on the estimation of the non-zero entries of a sparse vector of interest are derived and studied. The derived closed-form expressions enjoy several interesting features: (i) a simple interpretable expression, (ii) a very low computational cost especially in the doubly asymptotic scenario, (iii) an accurate prediction of the mean-square-error (MSE) of popular sparse-based estimators and (iv) the lower bound remains true for any amplitudes vector priors. Finally, several idealized scenarios are compared to the derived bound for a common output signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) which shows the in- terest of the joint estimation/rejection methodology derived herein.

Language development in the transition from childhood to adolescence: the role of grammatical metaphor
Creators: name: Derewianka, Beverly
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Language development in later childhood is often characterised in terms of increasing complexity. While other linguistic theories might describe such complexity either in structural terms or in semantic terms, it is proposed in this thesis that a systemic model might explain developing complexity in terms of the relationship between the grammar and the semantics. The thesis argues that around adolescence, there is a qualitative change in this relationship, whereby in addition to the system expanding in terms of greater delicacy, there is a compounding of the system - meanings are realised not by new additions to the system but by deploying in new ways lexicogrammatical resources already in the system which have developed to realise other meanings. There is no longer a 'simplex' (congruent) relationship between the semantics and the lexicogrammar, but a 'complex' relationship, whereby in the metaphorical1 lexicogrammatical choice, there are (at least) two meanings immanent. Whereas the transition to the mother tongue is characterised by metafunctional complexity (the lexicogrammar allowing the child to mean ideationally and interpersonally at the same time), the transition to adolescence is characterised by a further level of complexity whereby the child is able to mean metaphorically as well as congruently. -- The basis for distinguishing between the congruent and the metaphorical has been described by Halliday in terms of the phylogenetic, ontogenetic and logogenetic histories of this phenomenon. Using ontogenetic and logogenetic analysis, this longitudinal case study has demonstrated that there is in fact a marked development in the child's deployment of various categories of grammatical metaphor in later childhood. The study identifies certain uses of language in early childhood which could be regarded as 'gateways' to grammatical metaphor, including various protometaphorical categories. As the child enters school, a very limited use of some types of grammatical metaphor has been observed. In later childhood, however, there is a dramatic increase in the use of most types of grammatical metaphor. If a distinction is made between a more liberal and a more conservative interpretation of grammatical metaphor, then it is possible to identify certain uses of grammatical metaphor which develop later than others and which have significant implications for learning in secondary school.

description: The thermal decomposition of myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (phytate) in the solid state and in aqueous solution was investigated using 31P NMR spectroscopy. The progression of phytate decomposition was consistent with facile thermal dephosphorylation resulting in a cascading mixture of lower order inositol phosphates with similar, but not identical, trajectories in the solid state and in aqueous solution. In both states, phytate decomposition was well described by a simple exponential decay function, consistent with first order kinetics. At 60°C the reaction proceeded more rapidly in the solid state (k = 2.03 × 10−4 min−1; t1/2 = 2.4 days) than in aqueous solution (pH 3.84; k = 0.387 × 10−4 min−1; t1/2 = 12.4 days). In the solid state at 80°C (k = 19.6 × 10−4 min−1; t1/2 = 5.9 h) and 95°C (k = 106 × 10−4 min−1; t1/2 = 65.4 min) phytate loss also closely followed an exponential decay function. We hypothesise the rapid thermal decomposition is due to an impurity present in the phytate source that acts as a catalyst for facile transfer of the phospho (H2PO3 / HPO3- / PO32−) group from phosphate esters to a range of oxygen functionalities present (water, alcohol groups, phosphate group). These reactions have important implications for understanding the stability of phytate under environmental conditions.

Associations between temperature and crime in New South Wales, Australia

description: This study investigates the relationship between temperature and crime in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Time series and logistic models were applied to an 11-year dataset of incidents of assault, theft, and fraud, as well as spatial mapping and modelling of assault. Results suggested that assault and theft counts were significantly higher in summer than winter (18 and 6%, respectively), while fraud counts were not significantly different. Using maximum monthly temperature, results indicated that for every 10°C increase in temperature, average monthly assaults increased by 22%, and thefts by 3.5%, while again, the relationship for fraud was not significant. Modelling daily average counts revealed similar results. The study also found that for every 10ºC increase in temperature, a violent crime was 14 to 16 times more likely than a nonviolent. Spatially, 96% of Local Government Areas (LGAs) in NSW had a higher summer assault rate than winter, and LGAs experienced significantly differing responses. The findings of this study provide an empirical foundation for understanding crime-temperature relationships, which may support better predictions of criminal behaviour and allocation of police and health resources. Establishment of such relationships may also be useful for understanding how crime may change in a warming climate.

description: The interbedded metapelites and metapsammites of the Mount Stafford Beds preserve a suite of metamorphic isograds and progressive evolution of migmatite morphology as a result of a steep lateral geothermal gradient of 75°C / km across a 10 km wide regional aureole. Migmatite banding at Mount Stafford is controlled by the interbedded turbidite protolith, with differentiation due to leucosome/melanosome segregation. The melting history at Mount Stafford has been found to be controlled by a series of biotite breakdown reactions, at different P/T conditions and contrasting whole rock. Melt mobilisation is limited across wide areas, which is confirmed by the constant bulk rock composition of metapelites and metapsammites across the area. Textural observation from the in-situ relationships between apatite and micro-monazite ≈10um at low (greenschist) grades indicates the formation of metamorphic monazite at temperatures 25°C less than previously published for the Mount Stafford area, although this is in within temperature range of the observed new growth of monazite from a comparative the Cooma Complex. Within metapelites, monazite size and abundance increases with increasing metamorphic grade whilst an inverse decrease is observed with apatite mode and size. In metapsammites, apatite/monazite relationships are stable with monazite located as single grains in the matrix, and on rims of larger <250μm apatite and ilmenite grains, up to upper amphibolite grade. Xenotime is observed in samples from lower amphibolite to upper amphibolite, however mode decreases in the higher grades. Tourmaline formation in the lower (greenschist) grades at Mount Stafford has been found to be a result of closed system behaviour of fluids due to the breakdown of B-host minerals (clay minerals,mica) and formation of metamorphic tourmaline rims on detrital cores. The formation of up to 3mm unzoned euhedral tourmaline grains in metapelite is considered to be related to the rapid consumption of muscovite. Mode and form of tourmaline reduces up-grade, as form changes to subhedral grains along mineral boundaries. At highest grade, tourmaline is absent from metapsammite, and evident as small grains within cordierite in metapelite which indicates B loss via fluid movement at higher metamorphic grades.

Story as niche construction: the cultural evolution of fictional narratives

description: Some evolutionary psychologists – such as Tooby & Cosmides (2001) – argue that engagement with fictional narratives is adaptive, that humans have evolved genetically to be driven to, and capable of, engaging with stories because they provide a reproductive benefit. I will argue that evidence that purports to show that the human brain is hard-wired for engagement with fictional narratives is weak. In contrast, I outline a more plausible account : that the practice of fictional engagement is better explained as an exaptation. Through a process of scaffolded learning, capacities that have likely been selected for other reasons are co-opted and extended to allow an individual to engage with their culture’s stories. From here I situate fictional narratives within a ‘fiction niche’, a suite of practices and storytelling norms of form and content that are passed down from generation to generation, and which each new member is inducted into. I conclude by briefly discussing some of the functional roles such a niche might serve : in particular providing a shared cultural reference point that facilitates interactions between individuals within a community, and normalising behaviour across the population in ways that foster group identity and social cohesion.
Optimal animal nutrition

description: Linear programming has long been used in pig production to generate minimum cost diets that are subject to nutritional constraints. More recently, the development of accurate animal growth models and the development of effective nonlinear optimisation techniques, in conjunction with linear programming, have allowed us to address the bigger problem of building feeding schedules that maximise profitability. These feeding schedules, which we name "optimal feeding schedules", simultaneously minimise feed costs while maximising gross return. -- The random search for the optimal feeding schedule runs over an extremely large space. The optimisation methods used to generate the optimal solution are of critical importance. Software to perform the optimization, named "Bacon Max", has been developed in Visual C++. The search processes used in Bacon Max to determine the optimum solution for this problem include pure random search, tabu search, Monte Carlo search, ascent search and a genetic algorithm. Among these search processes genetic algorithms were the most successful, despite the long search period needed. This thesis extends this work in four ways. -- First (in Chapter 3), an alternative optimisation methodology was developed, which we call the "tailored" method, adapted to the known nature of the objective function, found by examining several random cross sections through a known solution. This revealed a single craggy peak. The tailored method finds the optimum more rapidly than the genetic algorithm. The program for the tailored method is also developed in Visual C++. -- Second (in Chapter 4), profitability depends on feed costs and price at slaughter which in turn are subject to variation across time. We show how to include such variation in our modelling and handle it using stochastic programming. The optimal feeding schedule is influenced by pig type, costs and prices, and dietary restraints. The effects are discussed. The Bacon Max software is developed to handle variations of feed cost and price at slaughter using stochastic programming. -- Third (in Chapter 5), the methodology is utilized to explore the impact of pig type, costs and dietary restraints on the optimal feeding schedule. At the same time the optimal feeding schedule is compared to the commonly used "feed-to-lean" schedule. -- Fourth (in Chapter 6), an application to real data from southern Thailand is presented. The results indicate that profitability can be increased by changing the original feeding schedule to the optimal feeding schedule resulting from Bacon Max. -- In summary, results indicate that the optimal feeding schedule from Bacon Max can improve pro tability for the producer.
How children learn to read: dissecting the process of orthographic learning

description: Learning to read new words is one of most important skills that a child has to master in order to become a proficient reader. The transition from laboriously sounding out a new word to the automatic recognition of the word is referred to as 'orthographic learning'. In this thesis, I break down the process of orthographic learning and examine the components involved in this process with both typically-developing and dyslexic readers, in the framework of the self-teaching hypothesis (Share, 1995) and the dual route model of reading. Across 5 papers, I used two novel orthographic learning paradigms to explore the role of phonological decoding, context, vocabulary knowledge, orthographic knowledge, and paired-associate learning ability in the process of orthographic learning. -- The first paper investigated the effect of context on orthographic learning of regular and irregular words. The second paper directly tested the self-teaching hypothesis and the role of phonological decoding in orthographic learning using regular and irregular novel words. The third paper examined the predictors in orthographic learning of regular and irregular words. The fourth and fifth papers explored orthographic learning with two specific subtypes of dyslexic readers. -- The principal findings of this thesis were: contextual information and the meaning of a novel word only assisted orthographic learning when the novel word to be learned had irregular letter-sound mapping; orthographic learning was less effective when the novel word was irregular and decoding could only be partial; the relationship between orthographic learning and phonological decoding did not hold at an item-level; vocabulary knowledge assisted orthographic learning of irregular words only; and different impairments in the reading process affect orthographic learning differently. These findings suggest that the relationship between phonological decoding skills and orthographic learning is not as straightforward as proposed in the literature, and provides support for the involvement of additional components.

description: We obtain a new anisotropic solution for spherically symmetric spacetimes by analysing of the Karmarkar embedding condition. For this purpose we construct a suitable form of one of the gravitational potentials to obtain a closed form solution. This form of the remaining gravitational potential allows us to solve the embedding equation and integrate the field equations. The resulting new anisotropic solution is well behaved which can be utilized to construct realistic static fluid spheres. Also we estimated masses and radii of fluid spheres for LMC X-4 and EXO 1785-248 by using observational data sets values. The obtained masses and radii show that our anisotropic solution can represent fluid spheres to a very good degree of accuracy.
