description: The city of Prato is arguably one of the most widely studied multicultural urban contexts in Italy. Yet, in the analysis of the dynamics that enable this conceptualization of the city as a space of cultural complexity little attention has been paid to the way in which localized processes of transculturation have changed both the visual landscape of Prato, and how it is imagined and understood by the different people that call it home. This paper focuses on Macrolotto Zero, one of the city’s most multicultural neighborhoods particularly marked by decades of Chinese diasporic movements. It explores how processes of exchange/conflict between local and migrant residents, artistic collectives, activists and policy-makers have profoundly changed the way in which the neighborhood is imagined and conceptualized at a local, national and transnational level. Drawing from fieldwork, interviews with local artists and historical research on the neighborhood’s visual and aural changes, this paper argues that this historical industrial area of Prato has been undergoing an extensive process of re-imagining. This process has been driven by bottom-up participatory art interventions and by residents which have repositioned the neighborhood as a creative and innovative space of experimentation that testifies to intricate cross-cultural entanglements.

description: Social media has become the archetype of technology underpinning communication and collaboration across all lifestyles, from the personal to the public. Despite its increasing deployment into corporate technology infrastructures, the encroachment of social media poses several doubts, including its business value, need for a social media strategy and its appropriate management. Although given a pressing need, there is a lack of clear guidance from IS literature around how to study these challenges, and ultimately to answer the question---is the use of social media a distraction at the work place? This research-in-progress paper lays the foundation to answer this specific question. Our work positions social media as a platform that can enable business and service value co-creation. We propose the Social Media -Beliefs, Action and Outcomes (SM-BAO) model, to help develop a framework that can inform social media use policy in the workplace.

description: Abstract: As a key technology for remote sensing applications, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) offers high-resolution images for a range of Earth observation uses. In order to improve picture interpretation, feature extraction, and information retrieval, this work explores the incorporation of phasor mapping approaches into SAR data analysis. The first section of the study explains the basics of SAR and the difficulties in deciphering complicated SAR images. The introduction of phasor mapping presents a potent tool for streamlining the analysis and representation of SAR signals, allowing for a more intuitive comprehension of amplitudes, phase correlations, interferometry and polarimetric data. Phasor mapping is a crucial method used in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to handle complex-valued radar information. Radar pulses are first sent in the direction of the earth, and the backscattered signals that arise are gradually sampled. After enhancing the signal for better resolution using range compression, the SAR signal is represented as complex phasors. The amplitude and phase information of the received signals at certain spatial locations are captured by these phasors. Each pixel in the SAR picture is given a phasor using phasor mapping, which converts the complex-valued data into a visual representation. With the phase information being especially useful for applications like interferometry for Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and terrain motion detection, the generated pictures provide light on the scattered distribution on the ground. In the end, phasor mapping is essential to deriving valuable insights from SAR data, paves a way of multitude possibilities for geospatial research and remote sensing applications. We provide a graphical user interface (GUI) and performance enhancing Ashmit transform 2 post processing step. The visual light provides an eye on path contained with stones (dihedrals), mud-water (volume scattering) and table top flat modulation or path (surface scattering). But our motivation on dihedral and volume scattering in InSAR and MRIs. So phase unwrapping or phasor mapping is an indispensable for radiologist or geologist. The GUI of phase unwrapping and Ashmit transform 2 post processing helps to detect the radio transceiver in pixel range hence in medical, military, and civil services, it is a good modular change.

Eyes Wide Shut: At the End of the Rainbow
Creators: name: Toledo, Michel
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2011

description: This article offers a symbolic and psychoanalytic reading of Eyes Wide Shut (Stanley Kubrick, 1999), interpreting the film as a masculine initiation journey into the unconscious realms of desire and guilt. Through the character of Bill Harford, the narrative is examined as a dreamlike descent in search of the lost meaning of eroticism and marital connection. The analysis focuses on themes such as ritual, gaze, the double, temptation, and punishment, with Alice functioning as a mirror and a voice of conscience. The film is approached as Kubrick’s cinematic testament, where desire, rather than a private drive, is revealed as a labyrinth of masks, images, and fictions shaping the contemporary experience of intimacy.

New Dual Porosity Thermal Simulator for Steam Injection in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs
Creators: name: Liang, Zhiyue
Publisher: name: The University of Texas at Austin
Year: 1997
Subjects: Dual porosity simulation
Thermal simulation
Naturally fractured reservoirs
Steam injection

description: A distinguishing characteristic of naturally fractured reservoirs is that fractures have high permeability with very small pore volume while the matrix blocks between fractures have low permeability with large pore volume. Because of the extreme differences in properties between the two media, fluids tend to channel through fractures to production wells, leaving much oil behind in relatively low-permeability matrix blocks, typically resulting in very low oil recoveries. One method proposed to increase recovery from naturally fractured reservoirs is steam injection. Heat transfer, imbibition, gas generation, and other mechanisms have the potential to expel fluids from matrix blocks at sufficient rates and in sufficient quantities to be feasible. The objective of this study is to develop an accurate 3D three-phase dual porosity thermal simulator to study steam injection processes in naturally fractured reservoirs. A new dual porosity thermal simulator, UTDUTHM, has been developed for modeling steamflooding in naturally fractured reservoirs. An implicit algorithm is used to solve the equations for the combined fracture/matrix system. The new simulator can model reservoirs with vertical fractures, horizontal fractures and their combination by appropriate subgridding of matrix blocks. The new simulator can also handle gas generation in the matrix, a capability not found in other simulators. A new set of correlating equations for saturated steam/water properties has also been developed for inclusion in the simulator. These correlations are better than those previously reported in terms of accuracy, continuity, range of applicability, and simplicity. The new simulator is verified by test runs against a commercial simulator, STARS, and a research simulator, UTDUAL. Excellent agreement is achieved. The procedure for implementing a dual porosity model was also implemented into UTCHEM, a chemical flooding simulator developed at The University of Texas at Austin. This implementation shows that the method can easily extend an existing single porosity simulator to a dual porosity simulator with very few changes to the existing code.
Caring like a State

description: This essay builds on the COVID-19 pandemic and the ways in which love has been played out politically in relation to migration. In Canada, the pandemic rendered visible the often invisible care work traditionally performed by women, and now increasingly so by women of color and asylum seekers. Building on queer theorist Sara Ahmed’s understanding of immigration policies as a form of ‘conditional love,’ I investigate various processes of (de)politicization that occurred when love and care became politically mobilized. I use the ‘love-body-care’ constellation as working points to tease out some disciplining and transformative possibilities brought about by love. I then examine how the pandemic unexpectedly made visible the politics of touch, love, and care between state-sanctioned hierarchized bodies. I notably unpack the ‘guardian angel’ metaphor that was mobilized to speak of those doing care work, and especially those working as continuing care assistants for the elderly — overwhelmingly asylum seekers and women of color in Quebec. Running through the discussion lie lingering existential, political questions: who cares (in both the practical and emotional understandings of the term), and how do we care about each other — with what political consequences?

Acid base interaction

description: Experiments were performed to evaluate the hydrodynamic force required to detach colloidal particles from different types of substrates by fluids in simple shear flow. The role of DL VO and acid-base interactions on the process of adhesion and removal of colloidal particles, from model surfaces, in various fluid environments was investigated. Particles and substrates with varying degrees of hydrophobicity were used. The free energy of interaction between these surfaces in a number of fluid media was calculated using the acid-base approach. Good qualitative agreement was obtained between calculated values of free energy of interaction using the acid-base approach and the critical hydrodynamic force required to detach the particles if long range electrostatic repulsion is properly accounted for. Results for a range of particles and substrates of varying hydrophobicity and for a range of solvents can be consistently explained using this approach. Interactions between hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces in aqueous medium at various pH and ionic strengths as well as in some organic solvents were measured using atomic force microscopy. In hydrophilic systems the forces observed were found to be well described by DL VO theory at large separation distances. Very long-range hydrophobic forces were not observed in hydrophilic hydrophobic systems. The interaction between two hydrophobic surfaces was dominated by the long-range attraction due to hydrophobic forces. This interaction was found to be sensitive to the type of substrate as well as to the pH and electrolyte concentration. Measured pull-off forces showed poor reproducibility. However, average values showed clear trends and were used to estimate interfacial energies or work of adhesion for all systems studied by means of the Derjaguin approximation. These values were compared to those calculated by the acid-base approach. Good qualitative agreement was obtained, giving support for the usefulness of this approach in estimating interfacial energies between surfaces in liquid media. A comparison of the measured adhesion force with hydrodynamic detachment experiments showed good qualitative agreement. The wetting behavior of model systems and crude oils was investigated by means of the "extended DLVO theory". The model oil is octadecane and the acidic or basic character of the oil is obtained by addition of a fatty acid or an amine. Good agreement between AFM measurements and acid-base calculations was obtained only for pure octadecane. We also applied a novel methodology to use contact angle measurements to compute the acid-base component of disjoining pressure in crude oil systems. The calculated disjoining pressure isotherms were compared with experimental data. from atomic force microscopy measurements. The method was shown to work for three crude oils tested.
Love as Practice of Solidarity

description: The essay is a feminist auto-ethnographic exercise in which I reflect upon my activist and academic life in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) and migrant life in Germany as situated knowledges (Haraway 1988), aiming to provide a basis for solidarity among various, power-differentiated communities. BiH has become Europe’s “dumping ground” for non-European migrants but also a “waiting room” for its own citizens who are leaving as workforce to the EU. I juxtapose social protests and the post-2015 migrations from the Western Balkans to Germany — by which I was affected and now direct my research — with the Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian migrations to the EU via BiH analyzing exclusion across the board — from racial profiling in the US to the EU securitization practice of pushbacks, and Bosnian authorities’ racism towards “migrants” as well as clientelism towards its own population leading to their migration.

Investigation of Artificial Neural Networks, Alternating Conditional Expectation, and Bayesian Methods for Reservoir Characterization

Reservoir characterization

description: The objective of reservoir characterization is to describe the complex distribution of properties of a reservoir based on available geological, petrophysical, and engineering data. Some of the reasons for the complexity are randomness or nonlinearity among petrophysical parameters and the subjective nature of geological interpretation. The nonlinear relationships among the reservoir properties can be quantified using artificial neural networks (ANN),· alternating conditional expectation (ACE), and Bayesian methods. First,· an approach is developed to correlate oil recovery efficiency with the petrophysical, engineering, and volumetric parameters reported in the Atlas of Major Texas Oil Reservoirs database compiled by the Bureau of Economic Geology at The University of Texas at Austin. Results are obtained by using the alternating conditional expectation (ACE) method on the database and dividing reservoirs according to drive mechanisms and/or reservoir classes. The categorical classification according to drive mechanism gives better predictions than classification by lithologies. This approach can be applied for prediction of oil recovery efficiency in a new reservoir. Second, an approach is developed for facies classification in a reservoir from wireline logs and core data using back-propagation artificial neural networks (BP-ANN) and Bayesian methods. The example facies selected from a sandstone reservoir are turbidities, debris flow, shallow marine, shoreface, and lower shoreface. Core and wireline logs (gamma ray, density, neutron porosity, and resistivity) are used for facies and facies pay prediction. The accuracy of the facies predicted from these methods usually ranges from 75 to 93%. Gamma ray and density logs are the most crucial for some types of facies while neutron porosity logs are most important for others. These results can be used where quantitative classification of a large number of logs by visual observation can be time-consuming and tedious. The approach can also be used to deteimine which logs are the most crucial for determining different types of facies. Third, the Bayesian approach is further extended for the prediction of facies pay and net pay using wireline log ·and core data. The facies pay is predicted based on the results from facies classification using Bayes theorem. The net pay is. predicted by Classifying the core data into permeability classes. Neutron porosity and density logs are usually important for prediction of facies pay. Sonic logs are usually important for net pay prediction.

An Erotic Re-Imagination of Human/Nature Relationality
Creators: name: Türer, Pınar
Publisher: name: On_Culture
Year: 2020

description: In this paper, I set out to uncover the legacies of coloniality in our understandings of love and sex by looking at ecosexuality as a conceptual framework. I argue that sex and love as defined and categorized by the logic of Western modernity stand in the way of imagining a manner of otherwise relating to others (both humans and non-human beings or matter). To imagine love and sex differently and to uncover their intertwined complexity within the pervasive discourses of coloniality, I base my approach on trans-corporeality, which problematizes ‘relation’ as understood in terms of subject/object binary. Attempting to expose the anthropocentricism in our understanding of sex acts, I engage with the implication of ‘likeness’ to dissect the ecosexual idea of ‘having sex with nature.’ Finally, in a discussion of the entanglement of sex and love and their rootedness in modernity, I bring forth both the pitfalls and the potentialities of ecosexuality for a re-imagining of love and relationality.

Multiphase Fluid Flow

description: The objective of this work is to present the concept of the Electrical Submersible Jet Pump (ESJP). It is a ne\v artificial-lift method for application in the petroleum production industry. This proposed artificial-lift method uses an electrical submersible multistage centrifugal pump in combination with a jet pump installed in the wellbore along the tubing string. Such a method is proposed to allow production of high gas-liquid-ratio petroleum wells using the existing electrical submersible pump technology. While applicable to any petroleum well, the driving force and main motivation for the development of this new technology is deep off shore petroleum production. In this work, also presented is a numerical model developed to simulate the operation of the system. In such a model, the system is analyzed as three coupled subsystems: the electrical submersible pump (ESP), the low gas-liquid-ratio (GLR) multiphase flow in the tubing string, and finally the flow inside the jet pump (JP). Both individual models used for the ESP performance and the multiphase flow inside the tubing string are available in the literature. In this dissertation is presented the modeling of the multiphase flow of fluids inside the liquid-jet gas pump (LJGP), which was developed based on the simultaneous solution of the mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations. A scaled model of the jet pump was manufactured of transparent material in order to allow visualization of the flow inside the jet pump throat and diffuser. A series of video recording were made of the multiphase flow inside the jet pump for some basic tests, which are available in a companion CDROM. Also, an extensive experimental work was developed in the test well at the production laboratory. A prototype of the system was installed and tested for various operating conditions. The results are presented in the dissertation body.
“Alle Apparate abschalten.” Conceiving Love and Technology with Heidegger And Kittler
Creators: name: Winkler, Robert A.
Publisher: name: On_Culture
Year: 2020

description: This article explores Friedrich Kittler’s conception of the intersection of love with modern technology and illustrates the theoretical insights gained by considering Spike Jonze’s film Her (2013). I focus on the theoretical examination of Heidegger’s philosophy of technology in general and the concomitant notion of ‘enframing’ in particular to shed further light on Kittler’s reflection on love that pervades the latter’s entire oeuvre. The article then interrogates whether, and under what circumstances, modern technology might foster said ‘truth events’ by focusing on: first, love among human beings, second, love among technological beings, and, third, love between human beings and technological beings. Thereby, Spike Jonze’s critically acclaimed science-fiction drama Her, depicting a romantic relationship between a human being and a computer operating system, serves as a reference point in illustrating Kittler’s multifaceted conception of the nexus of love and modern technology.

Bringing Intimacies into the Discussion
Creators: name: Röhm, Mona
Publisher: name: On_Culture
Year: 2020

description: Topics such as gender, sexualities, and intimacies, recently experienced processes of instrumentalization and culturalization in European public and political discourses on migration matters. Culturalization is particularly the case when it comes to questions of ‘integration’ where the cultural Other is contrasted to ‘European values’ to legitimate political objectives. Romantic love as a marker of living a morally ‘right’ intimate relationship is in this regard implicitly used to illustrate an incompatibility of Muslim migrants to ‘European’ ideals of intimacy. Based on conceptual thinking and literature review, this theoretical paper highlights the relevance of addressing intimacies, practices, and intimate ideas within current migration debates in Europe and Austria in particular. It is illustrated that there is a need to link the rising research stream on mobile intimacies to recent Anti-Muslim developments in European discourses. With the concept of belonging, the paper provides a possible approach to understand processes of exclusion and inclusion based on intimate ideas and shows their negotiable character. Further, this paper emphasizes the importance of thinking about Euro-Centric precategorizations and encourages micro-sociological inductive research to grasp the diverse understandings and practices of intimacies.

Nonaqueous-phase liquid

description: This thesis contains the study of two techniques that could be used in the remediation of dense nonaqueous-phase liquids (DNAPL) within typical aquifers: (1) the use of partitioning tracers to locate contaminated zones within the aquifer, estimate the volume of contaminant within the tracer swept volume, and/ or assess a remediation process performance, and (2) the use of surfactant enhanced aquifer remediation to remove contaminant from the aquifer. A partitioning interwell tracer test is where tracers are injected into an aquifer through one well and produced from another. A chromatographic lag of the tracers is observed in the produced fluid. The magnitude of the lag depends on the size of the tracer partition coefficient. This chromatographic lag can be used to note the presence of a contaminant and estimate the volume of contaminant between the injection and production wells. Performing this test before and after remediation can tell how much of the contaminant was removed. Surfactants can be used in a remediation effort to either enhance solubilization of existing contaminant or mobilize the contaminant trapped in the free phase. Each contaminant encountered requires that phase behavior experiments be performed to predict the behavior of the surfactant with the contaminant, the groundwater in the aquifer, varying amounts of salts, and any chemicals added to the surfactant solution such as co-solvents or polymer. Xanthan gum was used in the surfactant solution to enhanced the sweep efficiency of the displacement of the groundwater with the surfactant solution. The polymer was used in phase behavior studies, surfactant floods, and tracer tests. Several batch phase behavior studies were performed. Two different contaminants were examined, (1) trichloroethylene and (2) a field contaminant obtained from Hill Air Force Base, Utah. Several column experiments using soil from three field sites were conducted to assess the performance of either tracers, surfactants or both. The results of these studies and how they relate to the remediation of dense nonaqueous-phase liquid are the main objective of this thesis.

Leveraging emerging Web technologies for community engagement project success in higher education

Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: The widespread availability of Web 2.0 technologies such as Facebook and Twitter has led to the adoption in a number of community engagement projects. Unfortunately, the breath and depth of these web technologies leads to a disjointed and incoherent adoption. In light of the above, there is a need for a model to structure its planning and execution. In this article, we present a model to assist community engagement projects. The model comprises of four crucial dimensions: functional quality, degree of psychological attachment, hedonic attitude of members and amount of social relationships. We discuss how each dimension can leverage on Web 2.0 technology capabilities in the context of uniS—the Information and Communications Faculty in a leading Australian University. The emphasis on community engagement follows for one, strategic recommendations proposed through Australian Universities Quality Agency (AUQA) reviews. Given this, we discuss two specific initiatives currently in place at UniS that attempts to improve community engagement. The implications of this article are twofold. For educators, it recommends a set of considerations for establishing and designing community engagement programs and initiatives for higher education. For managers, it proposes a tool for systematically evaluating engagement success of initiatives within a community of practice.

Data Troubles
Creators: name: Holt, Jennifer
Publisher: name: On_Culture
Year: 2019

description: This essay examines the distribution of content in the global market and how it has become imbricated with “cloud policy” — through online platforms, remote data storage, and the patchwork of international laws, Terms of Service agreements, and policies currently regulating the 1s and 0s being stored and streamed as digital media. Distributing and protecting digital data as it travels all over the world poses challenges that often defy legal paradigms, national boundaries, and traditional geographies of control. Moreover, the incursion of platforms and other “intermediaries” into the digital distribution landscape has created challenges for everyone from tech companies and theater owners to regulators and audiences. Looking at some of the industrial, cultural, and political dynamics connecting the governance of data with the shifting realities of digital distribution, I will address the growing “data troubles” faced by the media industries and relate them to the growing stakes for the futures of culture, information, and citizenship in the platform era.

description: Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is a histone-modifying complex that di/tri-methylates histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27), a mark of transcriptionally repressed chromatin. However, how PRC2 is specifically recruited to its target loci remains controversial, although it has been postulated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can function as guides. Here we purified individual components of PRC2 from human cultured cells and found that EZH2 and SUZ12 can directly bind to RNAs. In agreement with recent evidence, our results support the notion that these two PRC2 subunits have RNA-binding activity, with general preference for longer RNAs. However, the length alone does not explain their cryptic substrate preference. Our data highlight the difficulty of characterizing the RNA-binding activity of PRC2.
A Coordinated Europeanization of the Comics Industry through Distribution
Creators: name: Burton, Jessica
Publisher: name: On_Culture

description: Researchers have usually focused on the Tintin and Astérix series’ global book diffusion through translation. However, little has been discussed about the distribution policies of the comics magazine format, a key factor in the development of European comics. This paper will consider the continentalization of western European national comics industries via the intra-EEC networking of distribution channels during the 1960s. By facilitating the exchange of comics features in the Franco-Belgian area, publishers such as Casterman, Le Lombard, and Dargaud ensured the rise of the industry and of the products they wanted to disseminate. Contemplating the motivations of publishers this article will delve deeper into the emergence of cooperative and competitive distribution channels among national publishers and between countries. Through the archives of Casterman and primary sources this article intends to contribute to a greater understanding of how the carefully planned distribution network of comics influenced the development of the European industry as a whole.

To Copy, To Impress, To Distribute
Creators: name: Gilbert, Bennett
Publisher: name: On_Culture
Year: 2019

description: In order to distribute our thoughts and feelings, we must make intelligible and distributable copies of them. From approximately 1375 to 1450, certain Europeans started fully mechanized replication of texts and images, based on predecessor “smaller” technologies. What they started became the most powerful means for the distribution, storage, and retrieval of knowledge in history, up until the invention of digital means. We have scant information about the initiation of print technologies in the period up to Gutenberg, and the picture of Gutenberg that we have has become a great deal more complicated than hitherto. There has not been, however, an approach to the “pre-printing” period in terms of the history of idea or intellectual history. After a brief survey of established approaches, this essay argues that distribution by impression, or print, is bound up with ancient metaphors for understanding communication by the making of multiples. I suggest that there is a rich field of study for printing history in the sophisticated concepts of reality that medieval and late Scholastic philosophy developed. These concepts helped to express and develop a desire or need for communication that led to the technology of replicating texts and images for wide and continued distribution.

Reducing waste in timber procurement is critical to replacement of original wooden shingle roofs on heritage buildings at Norfolk Island
Creators: name: Cokley, John
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Traditional timber cutting, recovery and installation processes used by loggers and builders on Norfolk Island are a major impediment to the continued and sustainable restoration and maintenance of historic buildings at the southern tip of the island. Sustainable restoration and maintenance is likely to be a contributing factor in the expected decision by UNESCO about whether the island is included on the World Heritage List.
