title: Morphological Modelling of Intermediate Beach State Transitions
Creators: name: Strauss, Darrell Richard
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Nearshore bathymetry
subject: Rip currents
subject: Sediment transport
subject: Beaches

description: Temporal and spatial changes in nearshore bathymetry result from sediment transport interactions with the hydrodynamic processes and provide a highly variable and rapidly changing environment. Rip currents are one example of a morphody- namic system presenting a significant hazard to swimmers unfamiliar with their behaviour. Rip currents pose a particular threat as they can develop suddenly and quickly transport water offshore. The widely accepted beach state model of Wright & Short (1984) uses param- eters which are functions of breaking wave height, wave period and sediment (Dean 1973, Gourlay 1968, Guza & Inman 1975) to classify the beach environment into distinct morphological states. These states range from reflective through inter- mediate to dissipative. Breaking wave type is influenced by the bathymetry as the wave approaches breaking point within the surf-zone and can be classified by the the Iribarren num- ber or surf-similarity parameter (Battjes 1974). Intermediate beach states can be more difficult to assess with these parameters and may even consist of a combination of outer dissipative and inner locally reflective zones.

description: We present AROMA (Attentive Reduced Order Model with Attention), a framework designed to enhance the modeling of partial differential equations (PDEs) using local neural fields. Our flexible encoder-decoder architecture can obtain smooth latent representations of spatial physical fields from a variety of data types, including irregular-grid inputs and point clouds. This versatility eliminates the need for patching and allows efficient processing of diverse geometries. The sequential nature of our latent representation can be interpreted spatially and permits the use of a conditional transformer for modeling the temporal dynamics of PDEs. By employing a diffusion-based formulation, we achieve greater stability and enable longer rollouts compared to conventional MSE training. AROMA's superior performance in simulating 1D and 2D equations underscores the efficacy of our approach in capturing complex dynamical behaviors.

Glorifying the Jewish-American Girl: Fanny Brice, Funny Girl, and “The Streisand Phenomenon”

description: Rarely has there been a marriage of actress-and-role as lasting and profound as that of Barbra Streisand and her career-defining performance as Fanny Brice in the stage and film versions of Jule Styne and Bob Merrill’s Funny Girl. How and why, though, did Streisand’s associations with both the role and real life persona of Fanny Brice come to be so strong? The enduring “phenomenon” surrounding Streisand’s original performance in Funny Girl has cultivated a stigmatic “shadow” that has followed all subsequent presentations of the show since its debut on Broadway in 1964 and its 1968 film adaptation, augmented by Streisand’s novel presentation of a distinctly kooky, ethnic rebellion against the fear-induced conformity of early 1960s America – one that ultimately became a symbol of ethnic pride for an entire generation of Jewish Americans and beyond. Streisand’s performance came to be conflated with an urban, working-class sect of Brooklynites and promoted fantasies of class mobility and ethnic inclusiveness for an American-born generation of immigrants’ children during a time of deep identity contemplation in the United States. This trend also coupled with the star-making nature of the show’s leading role to allow Streisand to claim Brice’s journey to fame as her very own. By analyzing reviews, highlighting case studies of several contemporary productions of Funny Girl from the past 20 years, and interpolating secondary source material from scholars of musical theatre as well as Jewish identity, this piece explores the far-reaching cultural and ethnic associations between Fanny Brice and Barbra Streisand within the context of how notions of “being American” have evolved from Fanny Brice's era until the present day, as well as in relation to the constraints that have surrounded Jewish female celebrity in mainstream American culture since the early twentieth century. It also discusses the challenges that such associations have posed to casting directors and producers of topical incarnations such as the recently scrapped 2012 Broadway revival helmed by producer Bob Boyett. Streisand’s lasting legacy as a symbol of ethnic and cultural pride ultimately implies that theatre-makers may simply have to wait until the infiltration of an entirely new generation of ticket-buyers for which Streisand’s alliance with Fanny Brice means little to nothing. Although such a generation is beginning to shape, especially with Ryan Murphy’s recent acquisition of Funny Girl’s rights and an extended storyline about a fictionalized revival of the show on FOX's Glee, I ultimately argue that the pervasive ethnic and cultural associations of Streisand’s initial performance – now deeply embedded with the show itself – will likely endure for years to come.

description: The number of American undergraduate students participating in study abroad programs is increasing annually. Educators, questioning the quality and impact of students’ learning and their inability to articulate experiences while abroad, have looked to improve intercultural communication. Reflection is frequently recommended as a pedagogical tool to help students examine and connect their experiences to larger ideas of culture, society, and globalization. However, there are few examples in research literature of study abroad students’ written reflection to different audiences and in digital contexts.
      This study explored how undergraduate students wrote about their study abroad experiences in a digitally mediated, pedagogical context with young American audiences from underserved backgrounds. It inquired how pedagogically-oriented curriculum did or did not support students’ intercultural learning and processes of reflection. Through document analysis and a qualitative survey of 30 students, and interviews with seven key informants, the study analyzed the products and processes of reflection and writing.
      The study found that the undergraduate sojourners represented themselves as travelers who had overcome institutional and socioeconomic barriers in order to pursue their academic and personal goals. Participants wrote about warmth, belonging, and their experiences of receptivity by local people and expressed openness and motivation to write for an authentic audience. A minority of the students wrote from a self-interrogative, implicative perspective where they considered ideas of privilege and critically examined cultural norms. Similarly, a small number questioned the content of the curriculum and tone of their writing, perhaps because of the curricular constraints and presentation of the positive benefits of learning through travel. Overall, the structure of the curriculum facilitated students’ communication as thoughtful citizens not just of their local communities, but also of the world, as they considered their audiences, their position as American travelers, and their relationships with local people. The study supports structured and free-form writing to authentic audiences as a tool for cultivating reflection, exploring identity, and making global and local connections in study abroad contexts. It urges educators to reflect on the goals and conditions for cultivating openness to locals and distant audiences and critical awareness of one’s cultural and social identity.
title: Engineering Self-designing Enterprises as Complex Systems Using Enterprise Architecture Cybernetics
Creators: name: Kandjani, Hadi Esmaeilzadeh
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Enterprise architecture
subject: Complex problems

description: Various disciplines have contributed to Complexity Science by experiencing the problem of how to design, build and control more and more complex systems (i.e., to ‘beat the complexity barrier’) and tried to suggest some solutions. However, apart from the description of this problem, very few concrete proposals exist to solve it. The observation of this Conceptual Analytical dissertation is that while improved design methodologies, modelling languages and analysis tools can certainly lessen the designer’s problem, they only extend the complexity barrier that a designer (or group of designers) can deal with, but they do not remove that barrier. The hypothesis of this dissertation is that perhaps the system (or system of systems) and the designer (group of designers) should not be separated and systems should design themselves, out of component systems that have the same self-designing property. Therefore the informal research questions are: 1. Is it possible to remove this problem from the design of complex systems? 2. If yes how (or to what extent)? Many disciplines attempted to attack the question of complexity management, and as will be seen, an interdisciplinary approach seems necessary to be able to give useful answers. Enterprise Architecture as a discipline, which evolved in the past 20 to 30 years (initially called 'enterprise integration'), has defined as its mission to bring together all that knowledge which is necessary to maintain enterprises through life (ISO 15704, 2000). Therefore, this thesis will attempt to look at the problem through the eyes of an interdisciplinary EA researcher.

description: A subalgebra $\mathcal{A}$ of $\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ is said to be projection compressible if $P\mathcal{A}P$ is an algebra for all orthogonal projections $P\in\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$. Likewise, $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be idempotent compressible if $E\mathcal{A}E$ is an algebra for all idempotents $E\in\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$. In this paper, a case-by-case analysis is used to classify the unital projection compressible subalgebras of $\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$, $n\geq 4$, up to transposition and unitary equivalence. It is observed that every algebra shown to admit the projection compression property is, in fact, idempotent compressible. We therefore extend the findings of Cramer, Marcoux, and Radjavi (arXiv:1904.06803 [math.RA]) in the setting of $\mathbb{M}_3(\mathbb{C})$, proving that the two notions of compressibility agree for all unital matrix algebras.

description: Coherence is demonstrated for categories with binary products and sums, but without the terminal and the initial object, and without distribution. This coherence amounts to the existence of a faithful functor from a free category with binary products and sums to the category of relations on finite ordinals. This result is obtained with the help of proof-theoretic normalizing techniques. When the terminal object is present, coherence may still be proved if of binary sums we keep just their bifunctorial properties. It is found that with the simplest understanding of coherence this is the best one can hope for in bicartesian categories. The coherence for categories with binary products and sums provides an easy decision procedure for equality of arrows. It is also used to demonstrate that the categories in question are maximal, in the sense that in any such category that is not a preorder all the equations between arrows involving only binary products and sums are the same. This shows that the usual notion of equivalence of proofs in nondistributive conjunctive-disjunctive logic is optimally defined: further assumptions would make this notion collapse into triviality. (A proof of coherence for categories with binary products and sums simpler than that presented in this paper may be found in Section 9.4 of {\it Proof-Theoretical Coherence}, revised version of September 2007, http://www.mi.sanu.ac.yu/~kosta/coh.pdf.)

description: Last few decades have witnessed the use of artificial neural networks (ANN) in many real-world applications and have offered an attractive paradigm for a broad range of adaptive complex systems. In recent years ANN have enjoyed a great deal of success and have proven useful in wide variety pattern recognition or feature extraction tasks. Examples include optical character recognition, speech recognition and adaptive control to name a few. To keep the pace with its huge demand in diversified application areas, many different kinds of ANN architecture and learning types have been proposed by the researchers to meet varying needs. A novel hybrid learning approach for the training of a feed-forward ANN has been proposed in this thesis. The approach combines evolutionary algorithms with matrix solution methods such as singular value decomposition, Gram-Schmidt etc., to achieve optimum weights for hidden and output layers. The proposed hybrid method is to apply evolutionary algorithm in the first layer and least square method (LS) in the second layer of the ANN. The methodology also finds optimum number of hidden neurons using a hierarchical combination methodology structure for weights and architecture. A learning algorithm has many facets that can make a learning algorithm good for a particular application area. Often there are trade offs between classification accuracy and time complexity, nevertheless, the problem of memory complexity remains. This research explores all the different facets of the proposed new algorithm in terms of classification accuracy, convergence property, generalization ability, time and memory complexity.

description: G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) produce pleiotropic effects by their capacity to engage numerous signaling pathways once activated. Functional selectivity (also called biased signaling), where specific compounds can bring GPCRs to adopt conformations that enable selective receptor coupling to distinct signaling pathways, continues to be significantly investigated. However, an important but often overlooked aspect of functional selectivity is the capability of ligands such as angiotensin II (AngII) to adopt specific conformations that may preferentially bind to selective GPCRs structures. Understanding both receptor and ligand conformation is of the utmost importance for the design of new drugs targeting GPCRs. In this study, we examined the properties of AngII cyclic analogs to impart biased agonism on the angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1R). Positions 3 and 5 of AngII were substituted for cysteine and homocysteine residues ([Sar1Hcy3,5]AngII, [Sar1Cys3Hcy5]AngII and [Sar1Cys3,5]AngII) and the resulting analogs were evaluated for their capacity to activate the Gq/11, G12, Gi2, Gi3, Gz, ERK and \b{eta}-arrestin (\b{eta}arr) signaling pathways via AT1R. Interestingly, [Sar1Hcy3,5]AngII exhibited potency and full efficacy on all pathways tested with the exception of the Gq pathway. Molecular dynamic simulations showed that the energy barrier associated with the insertion of residue Phe8 of AngII within the hydrophobic core of AT1R, associated with Gq/11 activation, is increased with [Sar1Hcy3,5]AngII. These results suggest that constraining the movements of molecular determinants within a given ligand by introducing cyclic structures may lead to the generation of novel ligands providing more efficient biased agonism.

description: Selenium is an important micronutrient for foetal development. MicroRNAs play an important role in the function of the placenta, in communication between the placenta and maternal systems, and their expression can be altered through environmental and nutritional cues. To investigate the associations between placental selenium concentration and microRNA expression in the placenta, our observational study included 393 mother-child pairs from the New Hampshire Birth Cohort Study (NHBCS) and the Rhode Island Child Health Study (RICHS). Placental selenium concentrations were quantified using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and microRNA transcripts were measured using RNA-seq. We fit negative binomial additive models for assessing the association between selenium and microRNAs. We used the microRNA Data Integration Portal (mirDIP) to predict the target mRNAs of the differentially expressed microRNAs and verified the relationships between miRNA and mRNA targets in a subset of samples using existing whole transcriptome data (N = 199). We identified a non-monotonic association between selenium concentration and the expression of miR-216a-5p/miR-217-5p cluster (effective degrees of freedom, EDF = 2.44 and 2.08; FDR = 3.08 × 10−5) in placenta. Thirty putative target mRNAs of miR-216a-5p and/or miR-217-5p were identified computationally and empirically and were enriched in selenium metabolic pathways (driven by selenoprotein coding genes, TXNRD2 and SELENON). Our findings suggest that selenium influences placental microRNA expression. Further, miR-216a-5p and its putative target mRNAs could be the potential mechanistic targets of the health effect of selenium.

By proving for this model the local limit theorem, we establish the asymptotic formula for the partition function of the equilibrium measure for a wide class of parameter functions of the process. This formula proves the conjecture stated in [dgg] for the above class of processes. The method used goes back to A.Khintchine.

description: We prove that wave maps that factor as $\mathbb{R}^{1+d} \overset{φ_{\text{S}}}{\to} \mathbb{R} \overset{φ_{\text{I}}}{\to} M$, subject to a sign condition, are globally nonlinear stable under small compactly supported perturbations when $M$ is a space-form. The main innovation is our assumption on $φ_{\text{S}}$, namely that it be a semi-Riemannian submersion. This implies that the background solution has infinite total energy, making this, to the best of our knowledge, the first stability result for factored wave maps with infinite energy backgrounds. We prove that the equations of motion for the perturbation decouple into a nonlinear wave--Klein-Gordon system. We prove global existence for this system and improve on the known regularity assumptions for equations of this type.

description: Adolescent depression is highly prevalent, associated with negative effects and likely to recur, this provides a cogent argument for finding sustainable, cost-effective, developmentally appropriate approaches to preventing depression. Although there is good evidence to support efficacy, there is no evidence of the effectiveness of programs preventing adolescent depression. Thus the primary aim of this thesis is to evaluate the effectiveness of a universal, school-based, adolescent depression prevention program when implemented by teachers and local mental health professionals. Participants were 1003 secondary school students drawn from three pairs of matched Year 9 cohorts. The three pairs were assigned to either: (a) Resourceful Adolescent Program (RAP), an 11-session school-based resilience program delivered as part of the school curriculum (n = 522) or (b) a comparison condition (n = 481). All students completed measures of depressive symptoms and hopelessness at pre-intervention, post-intervention and 6-month follow-up. The intervention group completed quantitative and qualitative evaluations of perceived program benefit. Small program effects on depressive symptoms for the RAP group were evident for the whole group at post-intervention (ES = 0.30) and for girls only at follow-up (ES = 0.35). However, both boys' and girls' self-reports indicated very positive overall benefits from the RAP intervention. Teachers were not less effective as group leaders than mental health professionals in terms of outcomes on depression measures, perceived program benefits or acceptability to students. Public health implications of this population-based approach are discussed in the light of small effects, high recruitment rates and potential use of sustainable school resources.

description: Wearless friction is investigated in a simple mechanical model called Frenkel-Kontorova-Tomlinson model. We have introduced this model in [Phys. Rev. B, Vol. 53, 7539 (1996)] where the static friction has already been considered. Here the model is treated for constant sliding speed. The kinetic friction is calculated numerically as well as analytically. As a function of the sliding velocity it shows many structures which can be understood by varies kinds of phonon resonances (normal, superharmonic and parametric) caused by the so-called "washboard wave". For increasing interaction strength the regular motion becomes chaotic (fluid-sliding state). The fluid sliding state is mainly determined by the density of decay channels of m washboard waves into n phonons. We also find strong bistabilities and coherent motions with superimposed dark envelope solitons which interact nondestructively.

Globalization and the Networks of Expertise in Turkey: The Politics of Autism

description: This dissertation uses the case of autism to examine the changing contours of disability, personhood and civil society in contemporary Turkey. Drawing on qualitative data collected through fieldwork and interviews, I show that despite the arguments proposed by parents groups and the scientific literature, the dissemination of autism diagnoses globally does not indicate a universalization of the experience, interpretation and moral understanding of the disease category. Instead, the translation of autism to the Turkish context was contingent upon the specific institutional conditions determined by professional struggles, the organization of civil society and the transformation of the welfare state. My findings suggest that there is a split moral career of the child presenting with developmental problems in Turkey with divergent paths to referral, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. In the absence of high quality, state subsidized special education services, middle class parents have allied with Western educated experts to disassemble the autism spectrum resulting in the formation of what I call a "disorder without a diagnosis". These findings are significant in understanding the changing relations of expertise in a non-Western context.

description: The revenue optimal mechanism for selling a single item to agents with independent but non-identically distributed values is complex for agents with linear utility (Myerson,1981) and has no closed-form characterization for agents with non-linear utility (cf. Alaei et al., 2012). Nonetheless, for linear utility agents satisfying a natural regularity property, Alaei et al. (2018) showed that simply posting an anonymous price is an e-approximation. We give a parameterization of the regularity property that extends to agents with non-linear utility and show that the approximation bound of anonymous pricing for regular agents approximately extends to agents that satisfy this approximate regularity property. We apply this approximation framework to prove that anonymous pricing is a constant approximation to the revenue optimal single-item auction for agents with public-budget utility, private-budget utility, and (a special case of) risk-averse utility.

An Informational Approach to Cosmological Parameter Estimation

description: We introduce a new approach for cosmological parameter estimation based on the information-theoretical Jensen-Shannon divergence (${\cal D}_{\rm JS}$), calculating it for models in the restricted parameter space $\{H_0, w_0, w_a\}$, where $H_0$ is the value of the Hubble constant today, and $w_0$ and $w_a$ are dark energy parameters, with the other parameters held fixed at their best-fit values from the Planck 2018 data. As an application, we investigate the $H_0$ tension between the Planck temperature power spectrum data (TT) and the local astronomical data by comparing the $Λ$CDM model with the $w$CDM and the $w_0w_a$CDM dynamic dark energy models. We find agreement with other works using the standard Bayesian inference for parameter estimation; in addition, we show that while the ${\cal D}_{\rm JS}$ is equally minimized for both values of $H_0$ along the $(w_0,w_a)$ plane, the lines of degeneracy are different for each value of $H_0$. This allows for distinguishing between the two, once the value of either $w_0$ or $w_a$ is known.

description: We establish the universal torus low-energy spectra at the free Dirac fixed point and at the strongly coupled chiral Ising fixed point and their subtle crossover behaviour in the Gross-Neuveu-Yukawa field theory with ${n_\text{D}=4}$ component Dirac spinors in $D=(2+1)$ dimensions. These fixed points and the field theories are directly relevant for the long-wavelength physics of certain interacting Dirac systems, such as repulsive spinless fermions on the honeycomb lattice or $π$-flux square lattice. The torus energy spectrum has been shown previously to serve as a characteristic fingerprint of relativistic fixed points and is a powerful tool to discriminate quantum critical behaviour in numerical simulations. Here, we use a combination of exact diagonalization and quantum Monte Carlo simulations of strongly interacting fermionic lattice models, to compute the critical torus energy spectrum on finite-size clusters with periodic boundaries and extrapolate them to the thermodynamic limit. Additionally, we compute the torus energy spectrum analytically using the perturbative expansion in ${ε= 4 - D}$, which is in good agreement with the numerical results, thereby validating the presence of the chiral Ising fixed point in the lattice models at hand. We show that the strong interaction between the spinor field and the scalar order-parameter field strongly influences the critical torus energy spectrum and we observe prominent multiplicity features related to an emergent symmetry predicted from the quantum field theory. Building on these results we are able to address the subtle crossover physics of the low-energy spectrum flowing from the chiral Ising fixed point to the Dirac fixed point, and analyze earlier flawed attempts to extract Fermi velocity renormalizations from the low-energy spectrum.
