description: Additional file 2: Supplementary Figure 2. Figure illustrating significant interaction effects of overall longitudinal associations between diurnal rest-activity rhythm parameters with fatigue, insomnia, and HRQoL with time since end of treatment. Stratified effects are shown separately for each post-treatment time point, and significantly different effects as compared to 6 weeks post-treatment are indicated with an asterisk. The P-value for trend indicates if the association between RAR parameters and outcomes differs significantly per 6 months increase in time since end of treatment. In case of no interaction, a horizontal line would be expected.

description: Numerous studies in the field of music generation have demonstrated impressive performance, yet virtually no models are able to directly generate music to match accompanying videos. In this work, we develop a generative music AI framework, Video2Music, that can match a provided video. We first curated a unique collection of music videos. Then, we analysed the music videos to obtain semantic, scene offset, motion, and emotion features. These distinct features are then employed as guiding input to our music generation model. We transcribe the audio files into MIDI and chords, and extract features such as note density and loudness. This results in a rich multimodal dataset, called MuVi-Sync, on which we train a novel Affective Multimodal Transformer (AMT) model to generate music given a video. This model includes a novel mechanism to enforce affective similarity between video and music. Finally, post-processing is performed based on a biGRU-based regression model to estimate note density and loudness based on the video features. This ensures a dynamic rendering of the generated chords with varying rhythm and volume. In a thorough experiment, we show that our proposed framework can generate music that matches the video content in terms of emotion. The musical quality, along with the quality of music-video matching is confirmed in a user study. The proposed AMT model, along with the new MuVi-Sync dataset, presents a promising step for the new task of music generation for videos.

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der Frage nachgegangen, welche Potentiale sich aus der Zusammenarbeit zwischen stationären sozialpädagogischen Institutionen für Jugendliche und Vereinen im Hinblick auf die Lebensbewältigung von Jugendlichen ergeben. Ziel ist es, stationäre sozialpädagogische Institutionen und Vereine als Orte der Lebensbewältigung zu beleuchten, die Zusammenarbeit zu erforschen und somit Empfehlungen für die Praxis abzuleiten. Zu diesem Zweck wird das Konzept der Lebensbewältigung beschrieben und stationäre sozialpädagogische Institutionen und Vereine werden definiert. Um die Fragestellung zu beantworten, wird Literatur aus den Sozialarbeitswissenschaften hinzugezogen und eine qualitative Forschung durchgeführt. Die Autorinnen zeigen auf, dass sowohl stationäre sozialpädagogische Institutionen als auch Vereine als Orte der Lebensbewältigung angesehen werden können. Die Zusammenarbeit zwischen den stationären sozialpädagogischen Institutionen und Vereinen zeichnet sich unterschiedlich aus. Es wird angestrebt das Potential auszuschöpfen, damit die Jugendlichen optimal von den positiven Effekten eines Vereinsbesuches profitieren können. Für die Praxis der Sozialpädagogik bedeutet dies, dass sie sich ihrer Aufgabe in der Freizeitgestaltung der Jugendlichen bewusst sein muss.

description: Elements of urban soil quality such as compaction and low organic matter are underexamined, important challenges to urban afforestation. In this Beltsville, Maryland field experiment, I examined biosolids and compost as amendments to improve soil quality and planted tree survival in a degraded urban proxy soil and identified correlations between soil properties and tree survival. Organic amendments increased organic matter content, decreased bulk density, and had no effect on tree survivorship compared to controls. Effects on soil were more profound and lasting with compost than with biosolids. Soil organic matter and bulk density were correlated with tree survival early in the study and microbial respiration was correlated with tree survival throughout the study. High tree mortality was driven by transplant shock, limiting insights from tree response data. This study highlights the importance of soil quality and good planting practices in future research.

Gravity-Matter Sum Rules in models with a single extra-dimension

description: We prove a set of sum rules needed for KK-graviton pair production from matter in orbifolded extra-dimensional models. The sum rules can be found in full generality by considering the properties of solutions to the Sturm-Liouville problem, which describes the wave functions and the masses of the KK-gravitons in four dimensions. They ensure cancellations in the amplitudes of the processes mentioned above which considerably reduce their growth with $s$ in the high-energy limit. This protects extra-dimensional theories from the low-scale unitarity problems that plague other theories with massive spin-2 particles. We argue that such relations are valid for a broader category of models thus generalizing our previous results that were limited to the large $μ$ limit of the Randall-Sundrum model.

title: Kriminelles Verhalten jugendlicher Mehrfach- und Intensivtäter als Lebensbewältigung unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Bedeutung der Peergroup
Creators: name: Huber, Birgit
Year: 2009

description: In dieser Arbeit wird, anhand von narrativ geführten Interviews mit jugendlichen Mehrfach- und Intensivtätern, die Theorie der Lebensbewältigung von Lothar Böhnisch überprüft. Im Fokus steht die subjektive Meinung der Betroffenen über die Ursachen ihrer kriminellen Handlungen und welche Bedeutung sie dabei der Peergroup zusprechen. Die Analyse entspricht dem Ansatz von Böhnisch, der Theorieansätze aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen implementiert, um der Komplexität sozialer Auffälligkeit gerecht zu werden. Der Nachvollzug und das Verstehen der subjektiven Befindlichkeit der Jugendlichen, unter dem Paradigma der Anerkennung, ist das Kernstück der Analyse. Aus den Interviews kann klar definiert werden, dass alle Jugendlichen ein hohes Ausmaß an instabilen Faktoren aufweisen und deren Fundament, die Familienbeziehung, sich als hoch belastet darstellt. Die Peergroup fungiert als Ersatz für die defizitären Familienstrukturen und dient der Suche nach Anerkennung und Integration. So wird die Beziehung zur Peergroup als Mittel zur Selbstwertsteigerung und Selbstwertdemonstration genutzt. Die belasteten Familiensituationen und die gefühlte Isolation der betroffenen Jugendlichen führen so direkt zur Suche nach Gruppen, die ähnlich gelagerte Problematiken aufweisen. Innerhalb der Peergroup entwickelt sich dann eine Dynamik, deren Sog sich der Einzelne kaum entziehen kann, ohne dass er wieder isoliert ist. Die Theorie von Böhnisch kann dahingehend bestätigt werden, dass in Delikten Jugendlicher ein massiver Hinweis auf Lebensschwierigkeiten und soziale Hilflosigkeit steckt. Das Modell von Böhnisch kann für die pädagogische Praxis von daher als Leitfaden angesehen werden, der im Rahmen sozialpädagogische Bemühungen im Umgang mit Jugendkriminalität den Anspruch erfüllt, die Problematik zu erfassen und die pädagogische Praxis anzuleiten.

description: We explore the potential of future cryogenic direct detection experiments to determine the properties of the mediator that communicates the interactions between dark matter and nuclei. Due to their low thresholds and large exposures, experiments like CRESST-III, SuperCDMS SNOLAB and EDELWEISS-III will have excellent capability to reconstruct mediator masses in the MeV range for a large class of models. Combining the information from several experiments further improves the parameter reconstruction, even when taking into account additional nuisance parameters related to background uncertainties and the dark matter velocity distribution. These observations may offer the intriguing possibility of studying dark matter self-interactions with direct detection experiments.
Refocusing issue management: bridging academic and practitioner perspectives
Creators: name: Jaques, Tony
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024

description: The central theme in this exegesis is the positioning of issue management across the scholarly and business environments, drawing the best from both, along with the important role of advanced academic research and analysis in refocusing this relationship. The history and development of issue management is explored, new concepts are introduced to define and categorise issues, and innovative tools are presented. Academic publications submitted as part of the thesis are analysed within four broad themes - formal issue management models and processes; new tools for issue management technology; growing NGO/activist use of the discipline; and repositioning issue management in relation to other management disciplines.

The exegesis concludes that the future of issue management will be played out in both the academic and practitioner spheres and that an effective link between the two elements enhances the value of both. It ends with analysis of key areas for future research, including establishment of a formal theoretical framework; progressing the development of agreed taxonomy, improving issue prioritization tools and better explication of issue management migration into other fields.

description: The wildland urban interface (WUI), which is the area where houses meet or intermingle with undeveloped wildland vegetation, has more than doubled over the last 50 years. The frequency and intensity of wildfires occurring in these areas has also increased. To advance the understanding of WUI heat transfer, a multi-phase experimental series was conducted to study the impact of radiant heating on materials common in WUI wildfire scenarios. In the first phase, thermophysical properties of decking and siding materials were measured and a thermal decomposition model derived. In the second phase, the decking and siding materials were cut into 100 mm x 100 mm samples and exposed to a radiant panel at constant heat fluxes of 5 kW/m^2 and 15 kW/m^2 to mimic the incident heat flux from a wildfire. In the third phase, the materials were constructed into larger 280 mm x 410 mm assemblies and exposed to the same heat fluxes to mimic full scale exterior walls and decks in the WUI. During both the second and third phases, the back and sides of the assemblies were insulated, and the back side temperature of the assemblies was measured throughout each experiment using a 24-gauge thermocouple. In addition to the experiments, numerical simulations were performed using Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) to assess the utility of the model for predicting the temperature rise of materials in WUI exposure scenarios. The experimental configuration from the second phase of testing was simulated, using the thermophysical properties of materials determined from the first phase. A simplified one-dimensional model was adopted, in which materials were assumed to be homogenous and isotropic, and heat transfer was assumed to occur only in the depth of the sample. The temperature increase for each of the studied materials were compared as to provide recommendations on the safest choice for siding and decking materials in the WUI.

description: Suicide bombing is an infamous form of terrorism that is becoming increasingly prevalent in the current era of global terror warfare. We consider the case of targeted attacks of this kind, and the use of detectors distributed over the area under threat as a protective countermeasure. Such detectors are non-fully reliable, and must be strategically placed in order to maximize the chances of detecting the attack, hence minimizing the expected number of casualties. To this end, different metaheuristic approaches based on local search and on population-based search are considered and benchmarked against a powerful greedy heuristic from the literature. We conduct an extensive empirical evaluation on synthetic instances featuring very diverse properties. Most metaheuristics outperform the greedy algorithm, and a hill-climber is shown to be superior to remaining approaches. This hill-climber is subsequently subject to a sensitivity analysis to determine which problem features make it stand above the greedy approach, and is finally deployed on a number of problem instances built after realistic scenarios, corroborating the good performance of the heuristic.

Appendix S2, Manuscript: How To Distinguish The Signatures Of Environmental Filtering And Physiological Limits In Trait-Gradient Analyses? Consequences For Community Assembly At The Extremes
Creators: name: DENELLE, Pierre
name: MUNOZ, François
name: VIOLLE, Cyrille
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: R code to simulate and analyze communities.

This example is divided into three parts. The first part simulates communities using the R package ecolottery (F. Munoz, et al. ecolottery, (2017), GitHub repository, https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ecolottery/index.html). In the example of the paper, the parameters used to build communities are the following: species pool with 100.000 individuals belonging to 100 species with equal abundances (i.e., 1000 individuals each), and species trait values drawn from a uniform distribution between a=0 and b=1. Each community includes 500 individuals and the immigrants establishing in communities are drawn from the species pool. Stabilizing environmental filtering determines establishment probability of immigrants depending on the departure of their trait value t from a local optimum topt. We thus choose a Gaussian filtering function of mean topt, which varies among communities, and standard deviation σopt equal to 0.25. The data frame of simulated communities is called simulation. The community-weighted mean (CWM) and variance (CWV) are calculated for each community.

In the second part, a test is run for each community to determine whether its trait distribution is influenced by the truncation due to trait range limits. For each community, we perform a likelihood-ratio test of the Gaussian truncated distribution of trait values under two sets of parameters: (i) mean and standard deviation corresponding to the observed CWM and  and (ii) maximum likelihood estimates of the mean and standard deviation. The proportion of communities where truncation is detected is plotted along the topt gradient.

The third section estimates the two parameters topt and σopt in each community, by comparing observed summary statistics of the community to summary statistics simulated over a broad range of topt and σopt values, with approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) analysis (coalesc_abc function; Munoz et al, in press).
Synchronization and oscillation quenching in interacting metronomes on a movable platform: simple model and bifurcation analysis

description: Various oscillatory phenomena occur in the world. Because some oscillations are related to abnormal states (e.g., particular diseases), establishing state-transition methods from an oscillatory to a resting state is important. In this study, we construct a simple metronome model and analyze the oscillation-quenching phenomenon of metronomes on a platform as an example of such state transitions. Although numerous studies were conducted on the metronome dynamics, most of them focused on the synchronization, and few studies treated the oscillation quenching because of the difficulty in analysis. To facilitate the analysis, we model a metronome as a linear spring pendulum with an impulsive force (escapement mechanism) described by a fifth-order polynomial. By performing an averaging approximation, we obtain a phase diagram for the in-phase synchronization, anti-phase synchronization, and oscillation quenching. We also numerically integrate the equation of motion and confirm the agreement between the analytical and numerical results. Despite the simplicity, our model successfully reproduces essential phenomena in interacting mechanical clocks, such as the bistability of in-phase and anti-phase synchrony and oscillation quenching occurring for a large mass ratio between the oscillator and the platform. We believe that our simple model will contribute to future analyses of other dynamics observed in metronomes.

description: Jupiter's moon Io hosts extensive volcanism driven by tidal heating. The isotopic composition of Io's inventory of volatile elements, including sulfur and chlorine, reflects its outgassing and mass loss history and provides an avenue for exploring its evolution. We used millimeter observations of Io's atmosphere to measure sulfur isotopes in gaseous SO2 and SO, and chlorine isotopes in gaseous NaCl and KCl. We find $^{34}$S/$^{32}$S=0.0595$\pm$0.0038 ($δ^{34}$S=+347$\pm$86 per mille), which is highly enriched compared to average Solar System values and indicates that Io has lost 94 to 99% of its available sulfur. Our measurement of $^{37}$Cl/$^{35}$Cl=0.403$\pm$0.028 ($δ^{37}$Cl=+263$\pm$88 per mille) shows chlorine is similarly enriched. These measurements indicate that Io has been volcanically active for most or all of its history, with potentially higher outgassing and mass-loss rates at earlier times.

description: Die Globalisierung und die höhere Mobilität als noch vor 30 Jahren bringen Veränderungen mit. Zum einen ist es für Personen einfacher den Arbeits- und den Wohnort in ein anderes Land zu verlegen und zum anderen den Kontakt mit der Heimat und all ihren kulturellen Nuan-cen weiterzuleben. Dies fördert die Vielfalt in einem Land. Diese Vielfalt stellt sowohl Einzel-personen aber auch ganze Institutionen vor eine grosse Herausforderung. Es gilt die eigene Angst und Vorurteile vor dem Fremden abzubauen und Strukturen so anzupassen, dass sie auch für zugewanderte Personen nutzbar werden. Diese Veränderung und Zunahme der Vielfalt der Gesellschaft ist auch in der Offenen Jugend-arbeit zu spüren. Gerade in diesem Bereich der Sozialen Arbeit steckt ein grosses Potenzial. Die Offene Jugendarbeit hat die Chance, den Jugendlichen eine offene Haltung mit auf den Weg zu geben und somit die Haltung der Gesamtgesellschaft in der Zukunft zu beeinflussen. Wie das umgesetzt werden kann, wird in der vorliegenden Arbeit behandelt. Nach einer Situationsana-lyse der Integrationspolitik in der Schweiz wird anhand verschiedener Integrationsmodelle die aktuelle Situation erklärt. Daraus wird die Strategie der Interkulturellen Orientierung, im Sinne des Transnationalismus, abgeleitet und in der Offenen Jugendarbeit angewendet. Als Hand-lungsempfehlung dieser Bachelorarbeit resultiert ein Vorschlag, wie die Offene Jugendarbeit sich weiterentwickeln und der Interkulturellen Orientierung noch mehr Rechnung getragen werden kann.

description: Diesel engine propulsion has been the largest driver of maritime trade and transportation since its development in the early 20th century and the technology surrounding the operation and maintenance of these systems has grown in complexity leading to rapid advancement in amount and variety of data being collected. This increase in reliability data provides a fantastic opportunity to improve upon the existing tools troubleshooting and decision support tool used within the maritime engine community to enable a more robust understanding of engine reliability. This work leverages this opportunity and applies it to the Coast Guard and its acquisition of the Fast Response Cutter (FRC) fleet powered by two MTU20V4000M93 engines integrated with top of line monitoring and control equipment.The purpose of this research is to create procedures for creating a Failure Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) model of a maritime diesel engine that updates existing Probabilistic Risk Analysis (PRA) data with input from the engine monitoring and control system using Bayesian inference. A literature review of existing work within the PRA and Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) fields was conducted with specific focus on the advancement and gaps in the field specific to their use in maritime engine applications. Following this, a hierarchal ruleset was created that outlines procedures for integrating existing PRA data and PHM metrics into a Bayesian Network structure. This methodology was then used to build a Bayesian Network based FDD model of the FRC engine. This model was then validated by Coast Guard Engineers and run through a diagnostic use case scenario demonstrating the model’s suitability in the diagnostic space.
The Kennedy Miller method: a half-century of Australian screen production

description: Kennedy Miller is the most notable of Australian film and television production companies since the industry's `revival' in the 1970s, and arguably even across the entire century or more of the Australian film industry. Despite this, the company (now known as Kennedy Miller Mitchell) has been largely under-researched and incompletely understood. What scholarship there is tends to focus strictly on its co-founder, internationally lauded filmmaker George Miller, or its most famous franchise, the Mad Max films, or else dates only to a short phase of its unusually long-lasting operations.

Drawing on extensive primary sources, including oral histories, company documentation, and new qualitative interviews with past Kennedy Miller creative personnel, this production history of Kennedy Miller gives an account of the company across its four main periods of operation: from its founding and first works in the 1970s, to its time of continuous production in the 1980s, its reshaping in the 1990s, and its ambitious expansion in the 2000s and 2010s. Particular attention is given to the concept of the Kennedy Miller `method', a label once applied to the collaborative principles that were said to characterise the company's operations. The `method' is redefined here as describing the firm's corporate culture, collaborative production practices, and house style. I argue that by understanding the Kennedy Miller method we can better observe the conditions underlying the firm's sustainability, as well as its corporate authorship over production, and its place in the Australian national industry.

This thesis not only fills a significant gap in Australian screen scholarship, and in our understanding of recent Australian screen history, but also builds a conceptual foundation for future scholarly research on this globally influential company, its creative principals, and its productions.

title: Einfluss des Außer-Haus-Verzehrs auf die Ernährungsqualität bei österreichischen Erwachsenen
Creators: name: Holzinger, Claudia
Year: 2009

description: Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war ein Vergleich der Ernährungsqualität von zu Hause konsumierten Speisen mit jenen außer Haus anhand der Energie- und Nährstoffaufnahmen, die durch einen 24-h-Recall erhoben wurden. 1.268 Frauen und 730 Männer der österreichischen Bevölkerung im Alter von 19 bis 64 Jahren, welche durch ein quotiertes Auswahlverfahren in die Stichprobe fielen, nahmen an der Erhebung teil. Dabei wurde der Ort des Verzehrs mit der Unterteilung in außer Haus und zu Hause erhoben, wobei hier der Ort der Nahrungsaufnahme und nicht der Ort der Speisenzubereitung für die Auswertung ausschlaggebend war. Zur Beurteilung der Ernährungsqualität wurde ein Ernährungsqualitätsindex erstellt, der die Nährstoffaufnahme von 21 definierten Nährstoffen in einem Index (0–2.100 Punkte) vereinte. Je höher die erreichte Punkteanzahl, desto besser war die Ernährungsqualität. Zusätzlich zu diesem Gesamtindex wurden zu Vergleichszwecken noch Indizes getrennt nach Überfluss- (0–400 Punkte) und Mangelnährstoffen (0–1.700 Punkte) erstellt. Der Außer-Haus-Verzehr hatte einen signifikanten Einfluss (p=0,021) auf die Ernährungsqualität, welche sich außer Haus schlechter erwies als zu Hause. Allerdings zeigte sich der Trend, dass sich jene Menschen, die sich zu Hause gesund ernährten, tendenziell auch außer Haus dazu neigten. Der Außer-Haus-Verzehr ging meist mit einer erhöhten Gesamtenergieaufnahme einher, was in Anbetracht der Mangelnährstoffe zwar nicht bedenklich ist, allerdings hinsichtlich der Überflussnährstoffe Cholesterin, Fett, gesättigte Fettsäuren und Salz langfristig einen negativen Effekt auf die Gesundheit haben kann. Die Determinanten Alter, Geschlecht und BMI konnten nur bedingt mit der Ernährungsqualität in Zusammenhang gebracht werden. Der steigende Außer-Haus-Verzehr und die damit verbundene sinkende Ernährungsqualität geben Anlass für eine verstärkte Ernährungsaufklärung und erfordern eine genauere Erforschung der damit verbundenen langfristigen gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen auf den menschlichen Körper.
