description: The complementarity of renewable energy resources required for optimal electrification planning is of scientific and, above all, technical interest, to electrify a given region at any given time. With the aim of achieving one of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDG7), universal access to electricity at the lowest possible cost, studies have been carried out on the issue of optimal electrification planning in general throughout the world, and in Togo in particular. The first step was to produce an Atlas of Togo, and the second was to plan its electrification taking into account the least-cost technological options, while considering environmental integrity, energy reliability and guaranteeing access to electricity in off-grid areas. The approach proposed in this paper is based on Onsset (Open Source Spatial Electrification Tool) combined with Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Onsset is an open source python programming tool for optimal electrification planning. This approach takes into account the geographical, infrastructural and socio-economic characteristics of each region of the country. It can also be used to identify the various possible optimal models for electrification, especially in the choice of the most appropriate technologies according to available resources. The case of Togo is studied in this paper. Optimal electrification planning (different technologies such as grid extension, installation of isolated systems and/or microgrids...) is thus proposed, taking into account their costs (installation, production and operating costs...).  Short-term (03 years and less) and long-term (15 years and more) studies for several scenarios (4) have been carried out. The results of these studies recommend, for low energy demands: in the case of rural areas (< 40 kWh/year per household) in the short term, stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) systems estimated at around 184 million USD with a production capacity of 20 MW. Finally, in the long term, we recommend stand-alone photovoltaic systems (USD 280 million with a production capacity of 62 MW), the strengthening of urban electrical resilience through grid extension systems (USD 964 million with a capacity of 274 MW), hydro mini-grid systems (USD 4 million with a production capacity of 1 MW) and PV-hybrid mini-grid systems (USD 1370 million with a production capacity of 0.72 GW).

description: SN2006oz is a super-luminous supernova with a mysterious bright precursor that has resisted explanation in standard models. However, such a precursor has been predicted in the dual-shock quark nova (dsQN) model of super-luminous supernovae -- the precursor is the SN event while the main light curve of the SLSN is powered by the Quark-Nova (QN; explosive transition of the neutron star to a quark star). As the SN is fading, the QN re-energizes the SN ejecta, producing a "double-humped" light curve. In this paper, we show the dsQN model successfully reproduces the observed light curve of SN2006oz.

description: ”Cargo tariffs are agreed through the IATA machinery, and in theory approved by governments….the IATA Tarff Coordination Conferences still agree cargo tariffs on over 200,000 separate routes. But these tariffs bear little relevance to what is actually charged in the marketplace ” (Doganis, 2002). ”The stipulations ICAO standards contain never supersede the primacy of national regulatory requirements. It is always the local, national regulations which are enforced in, and by, sovereign states, and which must be legally adhered to by air operators making use of applicable airspace and airports. ICAO is therefore not an international aviation regulator, just as INTERPOL is not an international police force. We cannot arbitrarily...............condemn airlines for poor safety performance or customer service……. should a country transgress a given international standard adopted through our organization, ICAO’s function in such circumstances…….is to help countries conduct any discussions, condemnations, sanctions, etc., they may wish to pursue, consistent with the Chicago Convention and the Articles and Annexes it contains under international law.”(ICAO, 2021). In spite of being a growing liberalized global industry served by many firms, we know that much of the international air cargo sector operated as an admitted cartel from 1999 through 2006. Given its visibility and importance to world trade, how did this cartel go undetected for so long? It seems that partly due to the way the cartel was uncovered, almost no empirical analysis has been done about the case. To fill this gap, we use publicly available air carrier data and examine whether a diligent anti-trust authority could have identified cartel/collusive behavior in the air cargo industry using established empirical methods. Our stark findings point to a regulatory failure in an industry whose long-standing business practices through the era of airline liberalization effectively “slipped through the cracks”, leaving the many shippers of air cargo unprotected against collusive behavior.

Struct., 22(9), (2013) 0950099, a model for a magnetostrictive material involving a generalized Prandtl- Ishlinskiĭ-operator is considered here. Using results of measurements, some parameters in the model are determined and inverse Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) is used to determine random densities to describe the remaining parameters and their uncertainties. Afterwards, the results are used do perform forward UQ and to compare the results with measured data. This extends some of the results from O. Klein, D. Davino, and C. Visone.

description: Types-and-effects are type systems, which allow one to express general semantic properties and to statically reason about program's execution. They have been widely exploited to specify static analyses, for example to track computational side effects, exceptions and communications in concurrent programs. In this paper we adopt abstract interpretation techniques to reconstruct (following the Cousot's methodology) a types-and-effects system developed to handle security problems of a multi-tier web language. Our reconstruction allows us to show that this types-and-effects system is not sound with respect to the semantics of the language. In addition, we correct the soundness issues in the analysis and systematically construct a correct analyser.

title: Towards posthuman dancing subjects: a critical commentary assemblage that interrupts five published works through the lens of practice-led, new materialist research
Creators: name: Frizell, Caroline
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2021

description: This PhD by publication is a practice-led, critical commentary assemblage on a portfolio of five published works through a new materialist, posthuman, postqualitative (NMPHPQ) lens, developing a thematic focus on posthuman subjectivity. Postqualitative research is used in this re-turning as a departure from qualitative research methodologies that underpin the existing publications in my portfolio, following an NMPHPQ ontological and epistemological turn in my practice and research. This research inquiry explores the concept of posthuman subjectivity as it manifests in transdisciplinary practice embracing, firstly, dance as a participatory process, secondly, ecopsychology as a practice that locates the human subject within a wider ecology and, thirdly, critical disability studies as a portal to non-binary practice. These diffractive intersections unveil power-laden, ethical discourses that have subordinated matters of the body, privileging particular bodies over others. As this thesis unfolds, a knowledge symposium maps out the research assemblage, theorising the body as process, the environmentally contextualised human subject and the (dis)abled body, problematising notions of the human subject and reaching towards posthuman subjectivity. This practice-led, NMPHPQ inquiry employs diffractive analysis in challenging binary discourses, towards considering how the subordination of matters that have been made to matter less hold the potential for redefining how identities are organised and subjectivities are conceived and performed. This thesis moves transversally across disciplines and genres and is presented via text, photography and film in a trans-modal style, with an emphasis on transdisciplinarity. In moving towards the posthuman dancing subject, I consider the implications for practice in the field of psychotherapy, identifying the transdisciplinary potential of diffracting across dance movement psychotherapy (DMP), ecopsychotherapy and critical disability studies, embedding the notion of the posthuman subject into practice in a way that is emancipatory and decolonising.

The ratio of HI at 10^19 atoms cm^-2 to optical extents of these galaxies are instead 2--3, which is normal for this type of galaxy. There is no evidence for a truncation in the HI distribution >/=10^19 atoms cm^-2.

description: Background: Previous research shows that there is low consumption of fruits and vegetables in children and adolescents, specifically those residing in the state of Kentucky which is ranked the lowest of all states in fruit and vegetable (F/V) consumption. The lack of F/V in a diet of someone during their developmental ages can result in negative health outcomes in the future.

Objective: To determine if the use of a farmers’ market incentive program as a nutritional intervention affects the consumption of F/V in children and adolescents.

Methods: 261 children and adolescents, ages 3-14, from 160 families participated in a 10-week long program POP Club, where they completed a different interactive activity each week at the Lexington Farmers’ Market. Results: Survey results found an increase in meals prepared together as a family after participation in POP Club. There was no difference in reported F/V consumption pre- and post-intervention and no difference in reported F/V intake before the COVID-19 pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusion: This study provides evidence that a nutrition intervention at the Farmers’ Market can impact meal preparation and increase time spent as a family preparing meals, but more research is needed to determine impact on F/V intake.

description: We investigate the emergence of hyperons in black-hole-forming failed supernovae, which are caused by the dynamical collapse of nonrotating massive stars. We perform neutrino-radiation hydrodynamical simulations in general relativity adopting realistic hyperonic equation-of-state (EOS). Attractive and repulsive cases are examined for the potential of Σ hyperons. Since hyperons soften the EOS, they shorten the time interval from the bounce to black hole formation, which corresponds to the duration of neutrino emission. This effect is larger for the attractive case than the repulsive case because Σ hyperons appear more easily. In addition, we investigate the impacts of pions to find that they also promotes the recollapse towards the black hole formation.

The women with a cat’s gaze: gendering the cat’s gaze in ukiyo-e
Creators: name: Kim, Grace
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Cats have existed alongside human civilization as both adept pest hunters and as adored companions. Just as cats have shaped human society, humans have over time have created and given meaning to these creatures, reflecting societal values and beliefs. In Japan, the image of the cat has developed in tandem with the story of the Third Princess in the chapter Spring Shoots I of the Heian-period classic The Tale of Genji. In the Edo period, this image underwent various transformations, ultimately shaping the modern image and consciousness surrounding the cat. Importantly, cats also became an object of fear in popular media through the spectacular kabuki play The 53 Station of the Tōkaidō by Tsuruya Nanboku IV which features a monster cat, the bakeneko who traces their lineage back to the Third Princess’ cat. Through the 1960’s black-and-white bakeneko film adaptations of this kabuki play, the image of the bakeneko still lingers in the popular imagination.Utilizing Hélène Cixous’ and Susan R. Bowers’ concept of the laughing Medusa and her petrifying gaze, I argue that the image of the monster cat in Edo period ukiyo-e, can also be read as a “mirror” that returns the gaze and allows for self-reflection. Using Koida Tomoko’s concept of boundaries, I also attempt to consider what defines that which exist in between the boundaries of this world and the next and what power is gained by traversing those boundaries. My discussion of cats and bakeneko ultimately reflect the fears that men particularly had about women’s sexuality and the power it had over them, particularly in the contexts of Buddhism but also in local folk beliefs. The treatment of women who are outcast to the periphery also parallel the experience of yōkai, feared yet suppressed. It is ultimately the ferocious gaze of the bakeneko which has returned from the depths of hell with vengeance which allows for the women of the periphery to figuratively ‘speak,’ by looking back. As a moment frozen as an ukiyo-e image, there is much to be said and found about the way we view ourselves and our society through the eyes of cats in Japanese art.

In 2012, DataCite and STM drafted an initial joint statement on the linkability and citability of research data. With nearly 10 million data citations tracked, thousands of repositories adopting data citation best practices, thousands of journals adopting data policies, data availability statements and establishing persistent links between articles and datasets, and the introduction of data policies by an increasing number of funders, there has been significant progress since. It now seems appropriate to focus on providing updated recommendations for the various stakeholders involved in research data sharing.

Comparative study between toroidal coordinates and the magnetic dipole field

description: There is a similar behaviour between the toroidal coordinates and the dipole magnetic field produced by a circular loop. In this work we evaluate up to what extent the former can be used as a representation of the latter. While the tori in the toroidal coordinates have circular cross sections, those of the circular loop magnetic field are nearly elliptical ovoids, but they are very similar for large aspect ratios.The centres of the latter displace from the axis faster than the former. By making a comparison between tori of similar aspect ratios, we find quantitative criteria to evaluate the accuracy of the approximation.

description: We present a type checking algorithm for establishing a session-based discipline in the pi calculus of Milner, Parrow and Walker. Our session types are qualified as linear or unrestricted. Linearly typed communication channels are guaranteed to occur in exactly one thread, possibly multiple times; afterwards they evolve as unrestricted channels. Session protocols are described by a type constructor that denotes the two ends of one and the same communication channel. We ensure the soundness of the algorithm by showing that processes consuming all linear resources are accepted by a type system preserving typings during the computation and that type checking is consistent w.r.t. structural congruence.

Subjects: 658.1: Organisation und Finanzen

description: Die vorliegende Masterarbeit untersucht die wahrgenommenen Veränderungen und Entwicklungen im Beruf Fundraiser:in in der Schweiz. Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit ist die Erkenntnis, dass verschiedene globale Trends die Arbeitswelt und insbesondere den Bereich des Fundraisings verändern. Diese Veränderungen werfen die Frage auf, wie sich der Beruf Fundraiser:in in der Schweiz wandelt und welche Implikationen dies für die Fundraiser:innen selbst und die Nonprofitorganisationen (NPOs) hat. Aus dem genannten Forschungsziel lassen sich drei Forschungsfragen ableiten, die die Basis dieser Masterarbeit bilden. Um diese Fragestellungen zu beantworten, wurde ein qualitatives Forschungsdesign angewendet, in dem Expert:innen-Interviews mit zwölf Personen aus dem Fundraising- oder NPO-Bereich durchgeführt wurden. In den Interviews wurden sowohl aktuelle als auch zukünftige Veränderungen und Entwicklungen im Berufsfeld behandelt. Ebenso wurden die Auswirkungen dieser Veränderungen und Entwicklungen auf Fundraiser:innen und NPOs erforscht.
Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung zeigen, dass die Digitalisierung und die damit einhergehenden technologischen Entwicklungen wie Künstliche Intelligenz und Social-Media die Arbeitsweise und Anforderungen im Fundraising stark beeinflussen. Fundraiser:innen müssen zunehmend digitale Kompetenzen und Fähigkeiten in der Datenanalyse entwickeln, um erfolgreich zu bleiben. Gleichzeitig wurde deutlich, dass die Arbeitsbelastung aufgrund der gestiegenen Komplexität und der höheren Anforderungen zugenommen hat. Die befragten Personen betonten die Notwendigkeit, flexibel und anpassungsfähig zu sein, um den sich schnell ändernden Anforderungen gerecht zu werden. Weiter stellen NPOs ihre Organisationsstrukturen um, bauen Hierarchien ab und setzen auf flexible Arbeitsmodelle. Diese Veränderungen erfordern jedoch die Bereitschaft der Mitarbeitenden. Trotz einer positiven Grundhaltung gibt es immer noch Widerstände.
Diese Masterarbeit zeigt auf, dass sich der Beruf der Fundraiser:innen in einem stetigen Wandel befindet und legt somit ein Fundament für zukünftige Studien. Ein Ausblick zeigt, dass eine breitere Untersuchung weiterer NPOs und Fundraiser:innen nötig wäre, um die Erkenntnisse zu vertiefen. Zukünftige Studien könnten sich stärker auf spezifische Trends wie die Digitalisierung oder KI konzentrieren. Auch die vorhandenen Aus- und Weiterbildungen sollten genauer untersucht werden, um zu ermitteln, wie sich Fundraiser:innen die nötigten Kompetenzen für den Beruf aneignen können. Schliesslich sollte der Fokus verstärkt auf die Veränderungen und Entwicklungen im NPO-Markt gelegt werden, da das Fundraising stark von diesen abhängt.

description: We present systematic spectral analyses of GRBs detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) during its first two years of operation. This catalog contains two types of spectra extracted from 487 GRBs, and by fitting four different spectral models, this results in a compendium of over 3800 spectra. The models were selected based on their empirical importance to the spectral shape of many GRBs, and the analysis performed was devised to be as thorough and objective as possible. We describe in detail our procedure and criteria for the analyses, and present the bulk results in the form of parameter distributions. This catalog should be considered an official product from the Fermi GBM Science Team, and the data files containing the complete results are available from the High-Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center (HEASARC).

title: Fire sales and policy interventions in financial networks
Creators: name: Pang, Raymond Ka-Kay
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2023

description: In this thesis, we model the impact of fire sales and the mitigation of systemic losses from policy interventions using tools from the theory of financial networks and complex systems. A fire sales event occurs when banks sell a large quantity of assets at discounted prices. There is a mark-to-market adjustment on assets sold, leading to a depreciation in the asset value and fuelling further fire sales. This channel of systemic risk can be a large contributor to losses, as observed in systemic events like the Great Financial Crisis. The impact of these events spurred a range of policy interventions to enhance financial stability. We use network models to analyse fire sales and policy interventions in interconnected systems. Our first main result shows that under a partial information setting, policy interventions for mitigating fire sales losses using matrix reconstruction methods outperform policy interventions that do not account for institutions overlapping portfolios. We focus on optimising policy interventions when only the partial information is known, and how this compares with the fully observed data. Using matrix reconstruction methods, we find policy interventions under partial information can be similar to policy interventions under fully observed data. The similarity in performance under partial information highly depends on the chosen matrix reconstruction method. The second main result is developing a new reverse stress test approach for a multi-stage fire sales event. Under this new approach, we find losses under these derived scenarios are larger than benchmark scenarios used in other stress tests. A reverse stress testing approach is taken, as the scenario reflects the largest losses of banks from the input data and given fire sales mechanism. We find the losses from these derived scenarios are large and have not been observed in previous studies. Our third main result develops a clearing model for banks that post collateral as part of their financial obligations, where we account for two distinctive channels of fire sales. In this clearing situation, we consider the counterparty losses between banks, fire sales losses from assets used as collateral and fire sales losses from externally held assets. In this new collateral model, the inclusion of external asset holdings towards fire sales losses in a clearing situation can result in larger losses, compared to banks holding no external assets. We find the total losses depend on the overlap between both fire sale channels, and the network topology of the interbank network.

description: The pressure rise caused by end-gas auto-ignition in spark-ignited engines is discussed using numerical simulation and theoretical approaches. The main objective of this study is to explain the mechanism by which the end-gas expansion during auto-ignition suppresses the pressure rise in spark-ignited engines, and theoretically to demonstrate using asymptotic analysis that the pressure rise depends on the Damköhler number. A one-dimensional direct numerical simulation (DNS) of end-gas auto-ignition is performed, and the modelling assumptions for it are discussed based on the DNS results. The Damköhler number, defined as the acoustic time scale and the characteristic time scale of the chemical reaction, is introduced in the modelling. The end-gas auto-ignition model is solved numerically, and it is shown that the pressure rise increases with the Damköhler number. Additionally, it is shown that the tendency of the pressure rise is due to the balance between the propagation rate of the expansion wave generated in the end gas and the reaction rate at auto-ignition, which varies with the Damköhler number. To derive the analytical solution of the relationship between the pressure rise and Damköhler number, the end-gas auto-ignition model is simplified based on the numerical results. The simplified model for end-gas auto-ignition is then solved using Newton’s method, and the analytical solution of the pressure rise is derived.

description: Radio and X-ray emission of AGN appears to be correlated. The details of the underlying physical processes, however, are still not fully understood, i.e., to what extent is the X-ray and radio emission originating from the same relativistic particles or from the accretion-disk or corona or both. We study the cm radio emission of an SDSS/ROSAT/FIRST matched sample of 13 X-raying AGN in the redshift range 0.11< z < 0.37 at high angular resolution with the goal of searching for jet structures or diffuse, extended emission on sub-kpc scales. We use MERLIN at 18 cm for all objects and Western EVN at 18 cm for four objects to study the radio emission on scales of ~500 pc and ~40 pc for the MERLIN and EVN observations, respectively. The detected emission is dominated by compact nuclear radio structures. We find no kpc collimated jet structures. The EVN data indicate for compact nuclei on 40 pc scales, with brightness temperatures typical for accretion-disk scenarios. Comparison with FIRST shows that the 18 cm emission is resolved out up to 50% by MERLIN. Star-formation rates based on large aperture SDSS spectra are generally too small to produce considerable contamination of the nuclear radio emission. We can, therefore, assume the 18 cm flux densities to be produced in the nuclei of the AGN. Together with the ROSAT soft X-ray luminosities and black hole mass estimates from the literature, our sample objects follow closely the Merloni et al. (2003) fundamental plane relation, which appears to trace the accretion processes. Detailed X-ray spectral modeling from deeper hard X-ray observations and higher angular resolution at radio wavelengths are required to further proceed in the disentangling of jet and accretion related processes.

description: We suggest a novel methodology to obtain a digital representation of analog signals and to perform its back-conversion using memristive devices. In the proposed converters, the same memristive systems are used for two purposes: as elements performing conversion and elements storing the code. This approach to conversion is particularly relevant for interfacing analog signals with memristive digital logic/computing circuits.

description: A microscopic understanding of the thermodynamic entropy in quantum systems has been a mystery ever since the invention of quantum mechanics. In classical physics, this entropy is believed to be the logarithm of the volume of phase space accessible to an isolated system [1]. There is no quantum mechanical analog to this. Instead, Von Neumann's hypothesis for the entropy [2] is most widely used. However this gives zero for systems with a known wave function, that is a pure state. This is because it measures the lack of information about the system rather than the flow of heat as obtained from thermodynamic experiments. Many arguments attempt to sidestep these issues by considering the system of interest coupled to a large external one, unlike the classical case where Boltzmann's approach for isolated systems is far more satisfactory. With new experimental techniques, probing the quantum nature of thermalization is now possible [3, 4]. Here, using recent advances in our understanding of quantum thermalization [5-10] we show how to obtain the entropy as is measured from thermodynamic experiments, solely from the self-entanglement of the wavefunction, and find strong numerical evidence that the two are in agreement for non-integrable systems. It is striking that this entropy, which is closely related to the concept of heat, and generally thought of as microscopic chaotic motion, can be determined for systems in energy eigenstates which are stationary in time and therefore not chaotic, but instead have a very complex spatial dependence.
