Porous polymer monolith supported Suzuki-Miyaura catalysis in microreactors
Creators: name: Deverell, JA
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Miniaturisation of reactions to the sub-millilitre scale, through the use of microreactor technology, has the potential to reduce costs by drastically reducing reaction times, improving yields and selectivities, as well as decreasing the environmental impact by reducing reagent and solvent use. Further improvements can be achieved by utilising heterogeneous and supported catalysts within microreactors in order to increase reaction efficiency, reduce energy requirements, and simplify product purification. This should also enable the integration of microreactors with other existing microfluidic technologies allowing synthesis, purification, analysis, and bio-testing to be performed on a single device in an automated fashion. In this work, novel microreactors were fabricated utilising porous polymer monoliths (PPM's) prepared in situ within microfluidic devices as a support for the immobilisation of palladium complexes. Poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate) and poly(chloromethylstyrene-co-divinylbenzene) monoliths were prepared by either thermal or UV initiated radical polymerisation in several formats, including capillary, microchip, and column using both glass and polymer substrates. This required the development of new methods for anchoring PPM within polymer substrates with poor transmission in the deep UV region, which is necessary for photografting, thus enabling the use of polymer substrates with greater thermal resistance. The development of polymeric microreactors was pursued as mass production of microfluidic devices with multiple components is considerably easier and more economical compared to other substrates. Additionally, conditions were developed to allow the formation of PPM in columns with an internal diameter (ID) greater than 1 mm without the need for external compression to avoid shrinkage. The preparation of PPM using light emitting diode light sources was investigated with the aim of reducing the cost associated with development of photoinitiated PPM's, enabling greater access to this technique. The PPM's were utilised to immobilise ligands that will bind palladium, 5-hydroxy-1,10- phenanthroline, 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline, and an N-methylimidazolium salt. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of this technology, the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of iodobenzene and p-tolylboronic acid was performed under continuous flow in the reactors, which produced quantitative yields with less than 0.01% of the immobilised palladium leached over a 24 h reaction period. This is the first reported used on a polymer microchip for supported Suzuki-Miyaura catalysis and also the first demonstration of non-room temperature supported palladium catalysis within a polymer microreactor. Novel technology was developed to allow easy interfacing with a broad range of microchips and for producing PPM in batch via UV initiation using low intensity light sources.

description: We prove Abhyankar's Inertia Conjecture for the alternating group A_{p+2} on p+2 letters when p = 2 mod 3, by showing that every possible inertia group occurs for a (wildly ramified) A_{p+2}-Galois cover of the projective k-line branched only at infinity where k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. More generally, when 1 < s < p and gcd(p-1, s+1)=1, we prove that all but finitely many rational numbers which satisfy the obvious necessary conditions occur as the upper jump in the filtration of higher ramification groups of an A_{p+s}-Galois cover of the projective line branched only at infinity.

The insubordinate multiple: A critique of Badiou's Deleuze
Creators: name: Roffe, J
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The published work of Alain Badiou includes a varied and fascinating series of engagements with that of Gilles Deleuze. These engagements run from outright polemic ('Le flux et le parti: dans le marges de l'Anti-Oedipe') to assiduous summaries and contrasts ('L'evenement selon Deleuze'), but are capped by the 1997 Deleuze. Le clameur de l'‚àö‚Ñ¢tre. This latter text presents a sweeping characterisation of Deleuze's project as committed to thinking the fundamental unity of being as such, in contrast not just with the orthodox reading of Deleuze, but also many of Deleuze's own explicit statements to the contrary, in which he presents himself as a philosopher devoted to the theme of multiplicity. This thesis presents the argument that Badiou's reading of Deleuze, though striking, is fundamentally misplaced. It does so by examining in close detail Badiou's arguments for this reading, bringing it into contact with the relevant detail of Deleuze's own work, in particular his magnum opus Difference and Repetition. Further ‚Äö- and in accordance with Badiou's own demand ‚Äö- this critical examination situates Badiou's account of Deleuze in the context of his work at the time of this crucial engagement, namely Being and Event. In nuce, the argument presented here is that Deleuze is indeed a philosopher of difference, that his characteristic claims about the nature of being, the virtual and the event do not commit him to a philosophy of the One as Badiou claims. The Clamor of Being, however provocative, cannot stand as a justified reading of the Deleuzean corpus.
Relative value analysis

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This study is an empirical analysis of a technical stock selection technique. A random sample is studied for the period 1956-1967. Portfolios are constructed and managed by building a model containing three variables--relative earnings, relative price-earnings and relative prices. The objective of the study is to gather evidence which will test the hypothesis that relative value analysis selects portfolios whose rate of appreciation is greater than that of a buy-and-hold strategy or that of the market. The results of the analysis support the hypothesis. With few exceptions the strategies' rates of appreciation are up to several percentage points higher than the rate of appreciation of both the market and the buy-and-hold strategy. Secondly, portfolios which are constructed using both fundamental analysis and relative value analysis show even higher rates of appreciation. As a consequence of the results obtained, a general conclusion and several specific conclusions are reached. The general conclusion formed is that relative value analysis is a profitable stock selection technique. More specifically, it is concluded that: (a) Trends in stock prices do exist. (b) Fundamental analysis serves an important function in selecting securities to maximize portfolio returns. (c) The analyst who uses the relative value method will make buy and sell decisions which result in the selected portfolio outperforming the market.

description: With just two R-parity violating couplings, $λ'_{223}$ and $λ'_{323}$, we correlate several channels, namely, $D_s \to \ell ν$ ($\ell = μ, τ$), $(g-2)_μ$, and some lepton flavor violating $τ$ decays. For $λ'_{223} = λ'_{323} \sim 0.3$ and for a common superpartner mass of 300 GeV, which explain the recently observed excesses in the above $D_s$ decay channels, we predict the following R-parity violating contributions: ${\rm Br} (τ\to μγ) \sim 4.5 \cdot 10^{-8}$, ${\rm Br} (τ\to μμμ) \sim 1.2 \cdot 10^{-8}$, ${\rm Br} (τ\to μη/η') \sim 4 \cdot 10^{-10}$, and $(g_μ-2)/2 \sim 4 \cdot 10^{-11}$. We exhibit our results through observable versus observable correlation plots.

Forgotten students, forgotten teachers: Positioning the middle years in New Zealand teacher education
Creators: name: Shanks, B
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: For over a century the New Zealand education system has been defined by a bipartite organisation of schooling that is divided philosophically, pedagogically and structurally along primary and secondary lines. Initial teacher preparation and in-service professional development provision perpetuate this two-tiered division by providing programmes of teacher education in almost exclusively primary and secondary education. While the New Zealand education system has achieved many successes, concerns have been expressed in recent years about the variable quality of education young adolescent students in Years 7-10 experience in New Zealand schools. Current research shows that it is what teachers know and do in the classroom that is the most significant factor influencing student learning. In view of the concerns around the provision of effective middle level education, it is timely to place New Zealand teacher education under the lens. This research investigates how the middle years are catered for within initial and in-service teacher education across a number of key New Zealand institutions. Using qualitative methodology the study examines how, and to what extent middle level teachers are prepared through their primary or secondary programme of initial teacher education, and through in-service support, to meet the specialised needs of young adolescent students. The findings are informed, through an in- depth interview with an internationally recognised expert in middle level education, to ascertain the wider systemic factors influencing the uptake of specialised middle level teacher preparation in New Zealand. Additionally, comparative insights have been obtained from the perspectives of six international teacher educators involved in middle level teacher education programmes in Australia and the United States. The findings from this study have been synthesised to provide recommendations for the reform of New Zealand teacher education so that it is cognisant of the middle levels of schooling. It is hoped that these recommendations will inform future directions and will result in the learning pathway for Years 7-10 identified in the current New Zealand curriculum, becoming a reality.

A comparative study of the recent use of corporate income taxation in Canada and Singapore as a means to stimulate industrial development
Creators: name: Nyan, Boon Hang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Providing incentives to foster industrialization has been much in vogue in the developing countries in recent years. It is felt that, in the spree of enthusiasm to provide incentives to industries, the question of whether these incentives are appropriate to the economic problems at hand may not always be considered by the national government to the extent they desired. This study deals specifically with the tax incentives by way of corporate income taxation in Canada and Singapore. The purpose of this comparative study is to draw out the significant similarities and differences in the economic backgrounds and approaches by a system of tax incentives to assist in solving the underlying economic difficulties. It appears that in Canada incentives by way of corporate income taxation may not have had the anticipated impact on the Canadian economy. Many of the Canadian tax incentives seem to be too short-lived to influence long-term business investment decisions. In Singapore, possibly because of the urgency of its economic problems, the tax incentive legislation permits a long term use of the incentives which may therefore have a greater impact in influencing the long-term structure of the economy. The conclusion has been reached that in spite of the vastly marked social, economic and geographic differences between the two countries they have, however, employed substantially similar incentives to varying extent to stimulate the economies toward industrial development, although the economic environments of the two countries seem to require different approaches.

description: Single photon emitters often rely on a strong nonlinearity to make the behaviour of a quantum mode susceptible to a change in the number of quanta between one and two. In most systems the strength of nonlinearity is weak, such that changes at the single quantum level have little effect. Here, we consider coupled quantum modes and and that they can be strongly sensitive at the single quantum level, even if nonlinear interactions are modest. As examples, we consider solid-state implementations based on the tunneling of polaritons between quantum boxes or their parametric modes in a microcavity. We find that these systems can act as promising single photon emitters.

This occurs for a one-dimensional model where spins transform under the gauge field representation of QCD, the eight-dimensional adjoint representation of SU(3). The ground state spontaneously violates parity and is two-fold degenerate. In addition, the model possesses a non-vanishing topological string order parameter which we explicate analytically.

description: This online tool presents what agrifood experts think are the greatest issues and pressures influencing land use change in New Zealand.
Developed by the Agribusiness and Economics Research Unit (AERU) at Lincoln University, the tool presents recently updated (2022) results of a national survey examining the key trends and challenges likely to impact land use in New Zealand, as prioritised by primary sector experts.
Survey participants were first asked to freely list the most critical issues with potential to influence New Zealand land-use change or practice, both unprompted and with prompting (i.e. choosing from a list of issues).
The Matrix of Drivers Online Tool allows users to explore the results, customising these by filtering by participants' sector, knowledge of markets, and level of experience in the following areas: environmental policy; international markets; R&D/innovation; trade policy; and other domestic areas.
The tool is also scheduled to be updated with a third and final survey, to be completed before the end of 2023.
This tool adds to a canon of online tools examining international consumer preferences for New Zealand's top-exported food products, and is completely free to use.

description: Dependence of magnetic field generation on the rotation rate is explored by direct numerical simulation of magnetohydrodynamic convective attractors in a plane layer of conducting fluid with square periodicity cells for the Taylor number varied from zero to 2000, for which the convective fluid motion halts (other parameters of the system are fixed). We observe 5 types of hydrodynamic (amagnetic) attractors: two families of two-dimensional (i.e. depending on two spatial variables) rolls parallel to sides of periodicity boxes of different widths and parallel to the diagonal, travelling waves and three-dimensional "wavy" rolls. All types of attractors, except for one family of rolls, are capable of kinematic magnetic field generation. We have found 21 distinct nonlinear convective MHD attractors (13 steady states and 8 periodic regimes) and identified bifurcations in which they emerge. In addition, we have observed a family of periodic, two-frequency quasiperiodic and chaotic regimes, as well as an incomplete Feigenbaum period doubling sequence of bifurcations of a torus followed by a chaotic regime and subsequently by a torus with 1/3 of the cascade frequency. The system is highly symmetric. We have found two novel global bifurcations reminiscent of the SNIC bifurcation, which are only possible in the presence of symmetries. The universally accepted paradigm, whereby an increase of the rotation rate below a certain level is beneficial for magnetic field generation, while a further increase inhibits it (and halts the motion of fluid on continuing the increase) remains unaltered, but we demonstrate that this "large-scale" picture lacks many significant details.

Computational intelligence in e-mail traffic analysis
Creators: name: Lim, MJH
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: In law enforcement, tools and techniques are required that enable forensic analysts to uncover electronic evidence about the communication activities of possible criminal or terrorist suspects. This is needed in order to better understand the actions of criminal or terrorist groups and to also understand the communication patterns of suspected individuals. The extraction of useful information from electronic communication data is a difficult task, due to the large amounts of data and also due to the difficulty in making sense of unusual activities in the data. This thesis considers the problem of aiding the analyst to provide a better understanding about the communication behaviour of suspected individuals. The type of data considered for the thesis is e-mail traffic, which is based on information obtained from e-mail message headers but not the content of e-mails. This thesis proposes a \computational intelligence\" approach for analysing email traffic by using a set of computational techniques to provide different perspectives for examining the communication behaviour of suspect e-mail accounts. This is considered important since a range of views on e-mail traffic behaviour can provide the user/analyst a more overall understanding about the behaviour of suspect e-mail accounts. The purpose of using a set of computational techniques is to utilise the capabilities of each technique so that the combined effect of using those techniques present useful information to the user/analyst about a suspect e-mail account's traffic behaviour. The computational techniques used for the research in this thesis are visualisation and feature extraction techniques which each provide different ways of examining e-mail traffic behaviour. Visualisation is used to provide a visual method of interpreting exploring and understanding the communication patterns present in e-mail traffic data. The two visualisation techniques used for visualization are social network visualisation and time-series visualisation. Feature extraction techniques are another type of technique used to analyse e-mail traffic behaviour by providing information that locate features in the data indicating where unusual changes in communication activity are occurring. The two techniques used for feature extraction in the research are decision tree classification and hierarchical fuzzy inference. Two case studies are provided in this thesis. The first case study explores the detection of unusual variations in traffic behaviour from simulated e-mail traffic data while the second case study explores the rating of abnormal communication changes from the Enron e-mail corpus dataset. Both case studies demonstrate that computational intelligence is a useful approach for providing the user/analyst a better understanding about the traffic behaviour of suspect e-mail accounts."

The physico-chemical properties of the monolithic materials, such as pore size distribution and microhardness were studied with regard to the nanoparticle type and content. Moreover, the reinforced monoliths were tested for the possible use as scaffold materials in tissue engineering, by carrying out cell cultivation experiments with human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells. © 2010 Weichelt et al; licensee Beilstein-Institut.
Utilisation of Data Mining Technology within the Accounting Information System in the Public Sector: A Country Study - Malaysia
Creators: name: Rahman, Abd
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This study reports on the readiness to implement and the extent of utilisation of data mining technologies within the accounting information systems in the Malaysian public sector. Few studies have investigated the implementation of data mining technology in Malaysia. These studies have been within the private sector. In the public sector there have not been any. This study assists in filling this gap by exploring the role of technology, organizational, human resources and external issues such as political intervention are explored. The characteristics of those who choose too, or would be keen to adopt this technology as compared to non-adopters is also investigated. A data mining utilisation model is constructed combining information and communication technologies (ICTs), knowledge management (KM), data warehousing (DW) and data mining (DM) for application in the Malaysian public sector and the benefits of adopting such a model are considered. The study is triangulated adopting both mail survey and interview techniques. In the mail survey a response rate of 39% was achieved and 9 semi structured interviews were undertaken. Issues explored included the respondents' views of the importance of and factors significant in evaluating the accounting information system, the level of understanding of, perceptions of and readiness to implement data mining technologies within the public sector. Analysis was undertaken using SPSS, and for interview data, Nvivo7. The results of this study revealed that 25 out of 133 respondents were adopters and had knowledge about the implementation of such technology within their departments. The majority of respondents were not aware of the existence of data mining technology. Results further indicated that while respondents were generally positive about the existing accounting information system they identified improvements and changes that could valuably be made. For both the existing adopters of data mining technologies and non-adopters issues such as technological, organisational and human resources were significant and had played a role in the decision to, or not to utilise such technology. In terms of the non-adopters significant reasons for not adopting data mining technology included a lack of top management support, constraint on available finance to set up the necessary infrastructure, human resource issues including knowledge of the technology. The study found no difference in gender, job function or utilisation groups in terms of readiness to implement data mining technology but did for the level of education and experience in working with the AIS. The ability to use this type of technology was found to be related to the performance of the AIS. It was found the best model to apply data mining technologies within the public sector would include a centralised data repository linked to a well managed data warehouse integrating a number of existing systems with data mining technology.

description: The present invention relates to DNAzymes (also known as deoxyribozymes, DNA enzymes, catalytic DNA, or DZ), which are conjugated to nanoparticles (NP) to facilitate the detection of nucleic acids. One aspect of the invention relates to compounds comprising DNAzymes conjugated to nanoparticles (DZ-NP), such as metallic or gold nanoparticles, and methods for their synthesis. Another aspect of the invention relates to methods of using the conjugated compounds to detect nucleic acids, such as genomic material or transcripts of infectious agents, such as viruses, exemplified by applications demonstrating visual detection of Flavivirus RNA molecules, such as dengue virus, or Alphavirus RNA molecules, such as chikungunya virus, in short time periods, using compositions comprising stable components.

description: We consider a wide class of static spherically symmetric black holes of arbitrary dimension with a photon sphere (a hypersurface on which a massless particle can orbit the black hole on unstable circular null geodesics). This class includes various spacetimes of physical interest such as Schwarzschild, Schwarzschild-Tangherlini and Reissner-Nordström black holes, the canonical acoustic black hole or the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole. For this class of black holes, we provide general analytical expressions for the Regge poles of the $S$-matrix associated with a massless scalar field theory. This is achieved by using third-order WKB approximations to solve the associated radial wave equation. These results permit us to obtain analytically the nonlinear dispersion relation and the damping of the "surface waves" lying close to the photon sphere as well as, from Bohr-Sommerfeld-type resonance conditions, formulas beyond the leading order terms for the complex frequencies corresponding to the weakly damped quasinormal modes

description: We take on a Random Matrix theory viewpoint to study the spectrum of certain reversible Markov chains in random environment. As the number of states tends to infinity, we consider the global behavior of the spectrum, and the local behavior at the edge, including the so called spectral gap. Results are obtained for two simple models with distinct limiting features. The first model is built on the complete graph while the second is a birth-and-death dynamics. Both models give rise to random matrices with non independent entries.

Optimizing reproduction in the Tasmanian echidna Tachyglossus aculeatus setosus: the influence of an obligatory hibernation period and intense sexual conflict
Creators: name: Morrow, GE
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The echidna is a solitary, seasonally breeding monotreme mammal with a mating system characterized by high levels of intra-male competition for access to receptive females. Throughout Australia the breeding season follows a period of inactivity which ranges from shallow bouts of torpor to prolonged deep hibernation. In this thesis I investigated how the Tasmanian echidna optimizes its reproduction around an obligatory hibernation period and in the presence of intense sexual conflict. The bradymetabolic (slowing of metabolism) effect of hibernation was exploited by both sexes to optimize their reproduction. I found that testes recrudescence (defined as an increase in testes volume and density) was initiated prior to males entering hibernation, a strategy not seen in any other hibernating mammal. This strategy can be linked to the low energy and density diet and requirement to hibernate to maximise energy-savings, and to the large relative size of echidna testes reflecting a mating system with intense levels of intra-male competition. It took approximately two months at euthermic body temperatures from the initiation of recrudescence in December for echidna testes to reach 75% of peak size. Therefore if testes recrudescence did not occur prior to entering hibernation, hibernation would be restricted to a one and a half month period to allow mating in June. Male echidnas initiated mating activity by locating hibernating females and entering their hibernacula. This strategy was common in my study population and males that remained with a female in her hibernaculum for 13 hours or more gained a copulation opportunity. However, all females that mated or were disturbed by males prior to July 27 re-entered hibernation. This indicates that mating often occurred earlier than optimal for female reproductive success. Many of the females that re-entered hibernation after mating were pregnant. Pregnant females entered hibernation only in early pregnancy: hibernation extended the gestation period and hence allowed females to delay egg-laying. Females timed their reproduction so that they emerged from their 37 day period of nursery burrow confinement as ecosystem productivity increased. Hibernation therefore allows successful reproduction in a population where there is asynchronous timing of optimal mating between males and females. This thesis explores the influence of hibernation on sexual conflict, demonstrates the numerous interactions that can occur between hibernation and reproduction and shows that the bradymetabolic property of hibernation is exploited by both male and female echidnas to optimize reproductive fitness.

Corporate liquid assets : Theory and practice
Creators: name: Muller, David Walter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this study is to survey the theory and practice of corporate liquid assets. A survey of the pertinent literature will be made to determine the theory concerned with the management of corporate liquid assets. The practice of the management of corporate liquid assets is examined at two levels. The first is a historical review of empirical data of Canadian corporations. The data used is aggregate in nature with corporations grouped into eleven industrial classes and ten asset size categories. With the aid of the computer various ratios are calculated. The transactions (sales) and wealth (asset) approach will be used. The second level of practice involves an examination of the policies and practices of liquid asset management in one specific manufacturing company, the Standard Oil Company of British Columbia Limited. The theory considers factors external and internal to the corporation that influence its need for and management of liquid assets. Four main external factors are: (1) the demand for money, (2) the development of the Canadian short-term money market, (3) the competitive environment, and (4) improvements in technology, education, and management skills. The theory suggests a number of internal factors are also influential in determining the need for and management of corporate liquid assets. They are: (1) corporate policy, (2) the ability of management to plan and control, (3) the individual firm's demand for money, (4) the size and nature of corporate organization and activity, (5) the age of a corporation, (6) the firm's cost of capital, and (7) the firm's growth rate. The survey of the practice of corporate liquid assets at the aggregate level suggests that firms of most industrial classes and asset size categories have during the 1951-64 period: (1) increased the use of the cash balances they hold, (2) freed liquid assets to be used in more attractive alternative means, and (3) shifted their portfolio of liquid assets so as to hold a greater proportion of interest earning forms, especially higher yielding nongovernment forms. The review of the policies and practices of liquid asset management at the Standard Oil Company of British Columbia Limited indicates the effective application of much of the theory. However, various characteristics specific to the company clearly indicate that all the theory and the general practices based on aggregate empirical data are not likely to be observed in the management of one company's liquid assets.

description: We present a calculation of the properties of vibrational states in deformed, axially--symmetric even--even nuclei, within the framework of a fully self--consistent Quasparticle Random Phase Approximation (QRPA). The same Skyrme energy density and density-dependent pairing functionals are used to calculate the mean field and the residual interaction in the particle-hole and particle-particle channels. We have tested our software in the case of spherical nuclei against fully self consistent calculations published in the literature, finding excellent agreement. We investigate the consequences of neglecting the spin-orbit and Coulomb residual interactions in QRPA. Furthermore we discuss the improvement obtained in the QRPA result associated with the removal of spurious modes. Isoscalar and isovector responses in the deformed ${}^{24-26}$Mg, $^{34}$Mg isotopes are presented and compared to experimental findings.
