description: When carbon dioxide (CO2) is injected into an aquifer or a depleted geological reservoir, its dissolution into solution results in acidification of the pore waters. As a consequence, the pore waters become more reactive, which leads to enhanced dissolution-precipitation processes and a modification of the mechanical and hydrological properties of the rock. This effect is especially important for limestones given that the solubility and reactivity of carbonates is strongly dependent on pH and the partial pressure of CO2. The main mechanism that couples dissolution, precipitation and rock matrix deformation is commonly referred to as intergranular pressure solution creep (IPS) or pervasive pressure solution creep (PSC). This process involves dissolution at intergranular grain contacts subject to elevated stress, diffusion of dissolved material in an intergranular fluid, and precipitation in pore spaces subject to lower stress. This leads to an overall and pervasive reduction in porosity due to both grain indentation and precipitation in pore spaces. The percolation of CO2-rich fluids may influence on-going compaction due to pressure solution and can therefore potentially affect the reservoir and its long-term CO2 storage capacity. We aim at quantifying this effect by using a 2D numerical model to study the coupling between dissolution-precipitation processes, local mass transfer, and deformation of the rock over long time scales. We show that high partial pressures of dissolved CO2 (up to 30 MPa) significantly increase the rates of compaction by a factor of ~ 50 to ~ 75, and also result in a concomitant decrease in the viscosity of the rock matrix.

description: The models that unify dark matter and dark energy based upon the Chaplygin gas fail owing to the suppression of structure formation by the adiabatic speed of sound. Including string theory effects, in particular the Kalb-Ramond field, we show how nonadiabatic perturbations allow a successful structure formation.

description: The surface roughness of a recently exhumed strikeslip fault plane has been measured by three independent 3D portable laser scanners. Digital elevation models of several fault surface areas, from 1 m2 to 600 m2, have been measured at a resolution ranging from 5 mm to 80 mm. Out of plane height fluctuations are described by non-Gaussian distribution with exponential long range tails. Statistical scaling analyses show that the striated fault surface exhibits self-affine scaling invariance with a small but significant directional morphological anisotropy that can be described by two scaling roughness exponents, H1 = 0.7 in the direction of slip and H2 = 0.8 perpendicular to the direction of slip.

description: Today in the world, HBV infection and HCV infection are detected in 42% and 21% of patients with liver cirrhosis, and these diseases remain one of the global problems for public health. The disease occurs in young people who have more work ability, and in most cases the result ends with disability. According to the results of research, the death rate from liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, which are the main complications of chronic viral hepatitis, is 3.5% of all diseases. It is estimated that cases of decompensated liver cirrhosis will increase in the next 10 years due to the fact that viral hepatitis leading to liver cirrhosis is not diagnosed early and additional causes are not taken into account. Therefore, preventing the development of cirrhosis of the liver and reducing the causes of death remains an urgent problem.

description: The ultimate goal of a sound theory of turbulence in fluids is to close in a rational way the Reynolds equations, namely to express the tensor of turbulent stress as a function of the time average of the velocity field. Based on the idea that dissipation in fully developed turbulence is by singular events resulting from an evolution described by the Euler equations, it has been recently observed that the closure problem is strongly restricted, and that it implies that the turbulent stress is a non local function in space of the average velocity field, a kind of extension of classical Boussinesq theory of turbulent viscosity. This leads to rather complex nonlinear integral equation(s) for the time averaged velocity field. This one satisfies some symmetries of the Euler equations. Such symmetries were used by Prandtl and Landau to make various predictions about the shape of the turbulent domain in simple geometries. We explore specifically the case of mixing layer for which the average velocity field only depends on the angle in the wedge behind the splitter plate. This solution yields a pressure difference between the two sides of the splitter which contributes to the lift felt by the plate. Moreover, because of the structure of the equations for the turbulent stress, one can satisfy the Cauchy-Schwarz inequalities, also called the realizability conditions, for this turbulent stress. Such realizability conditions cannot be satisfied with a simple turbulent viscosity.

description: Three typical one-dimensional (1D)/quasi-1D nanocarbons, linear carbon chains, carbon nanotubes, and graphene nanoribbons have been proven to grow inside single-wall carbon nanotubes. This gives rise to three types of hybrid materials whose behaviour and properties compared among each other are far from understood. After proving successful the synthesis of these nanostructured materials in recently published work, we have now been able to study their oxidation stability systematically by using resonance Raman spectroscopy. Surprisingly, the linear carbon chains, which have been theoretically predicted to be very unstable, are actually thermally stable up to 500 °C assisted by the protection of the carbon nanotube hosts. Besides, longer linear carbon chains inside narrower CNTs are more stable than the shorter ones inside larger tubes, suggesting that the thermal stability not only depends on the length of linear carbon chains alone, but it is correlated with the confinement of the host tubes in a more complicated manner. In addition, graphene nanoribbons come overall in view as the most stable confined structures. On the other hand, peculiarities like the higher stability of the (6,5) CNT over its (6,4) counterpart allow this study to provide a solid platform for further studies on the application of these 1D nanocarbons (including true 1D linear carbon chains) at ambient conditions.

description: Heating during frictional sliding is a major component of the energy budget of earthquakes and represents a potential weakening mechanism. It is therefore important to investigate how heat dissipates during sliding on simulated faults. We present results from laboratory friction experiments where a halite (NaCl) slider held under constant load is dragged across a coarse substrate. Surface evolution and frictional resistance are recorded. Heat emission at the sliding surface is monitored using an infra-red camera. We demonstrate a link between plastic deformations of halite and enhanced heating characterized by transient localized heat spots. When sand 'gouge' is added to the interface, heating is more diffuse. Importantly, when strong asperities concentrate deformation, significantly more heat is produced locally. In natural faults such regions could be nucleation patches for melt production and hence potentially initiate weakening during earthquakes at much smaller sliding velocities or shear stress than previously thought.

The nature of teacher reflective practice in an unforgiving learning environment
Creators: name: Alexander, Lesley Dianne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study supported Schon's notions of reflective practice as being applicable to teachers involved in teaching physical activities in the context of unforgiving learning environments and specifically to teachers in the sport diving community. According to Schon, one's ability to recognize patterns and act effectively and efficiently in situations of uniqueness and uncertainty depends upon one's capacity to frame problems. In doing so, one draws upon a repertoire of past experience arid ways of capturing that experience which enables the development of the ability to reframe problems in light of information gathered from the direct experience. Reframing occurs through the processes of reflection-in-action and reflection-onaction and is a response to an internal dialogue related to the action setting, in which something has not happened as expected, thus producing a curious or intrigued response. A number of issues specific to teacher reflection in unforgiving learning environments emanated from the analysis of one sport diving teacher engaged in teaching an entry-level sport diving course which involved three different teaching environments (the classroom setting, the confined water [pool] and open water [ocean] environments). Three research questions guided the analysis. In answer to the first research question: What factors do sport diving practitioners reflect upon in each of the three environments? six reflective themes were identified in this case study with five being common across the three teaching environments and the remainder being specific to the classroom environment. The common themes were: a trusting relationship, the necessity of teacher control, to see the 'unforgivingness' of the environment, learning from one's practice, challenges to one's practice and understanding one's practice. In answer to the second research question: What influences the reflective process? the analysis revealed thirteen underlying or influencing factors or dispositions across the three teaching environments with eight of them being common to either two, or all three, of the environments. In answer to the third research question: What is the nature of sport diving practitioners' reflective practice? five categories have been used to address the analysis: 1) across environment related, 2) classroom and confined water (pool) related, 3) confined water (pool) and open water (ocean) related 4) classroom and open water (ocean) related and 5) specific to one environment. The reflection process documented in this study suggested that Schon's notion of reflective practice is very applicable to the professional development of sport diving as his conception of reflection applies to the three areas of teaching which exist in unforgiving learning environments: the problem solving disposition of teacher reflection, the learning from one's practice, and the probing of internal dialogue.

description: The geometry of Hamiltonian's eigenstates is encoded in the quantum geometric tensor (QGT). It contains both the Berry curvature, central to the description of topological matter and the quantum metric. So far the full QGT has been measured only in Hermitian systems, where the role of the quantum metric is mostly shown to determine corrections to physical effects. On the contrary, in non-Hermitian systems, and in particular near exceptional points, the quantum metric is expected to diverge and to often play a dominant role, for example on the enhanced sensing and on wave packet dynamics. In this work, we report the first experimental measurement of the quantum metric in a non-Hermitian system. The specific platform under study is an organic microcavity with exciton-polariton eigenstates, which demonstrate exceptional points. We measure the quantum metric's divergence and we determine the scaling exponent $n=-1.01\pm0.08$, which is in agreement with theoretical predictions for the second-order exceptional points.

synonymous with T. rex (Carr 1999; Carr and Williamson 2004; Holtz 2004; Glut 1997, 2000, 2003, 2006), others (Bakker et al. 1988; Currie 2003; Larson this volume) do not agree. Tooth count, bone shape, and foramen placement and size, along with many other skeletal differences, seem to clearly separate the 2 genera. Because there is so much evidence separating Nanotyrannus from T. rex, I have excluded Nanotyrannus from the following list of T. rex specimens.

Copyright (in Design) post-Brexit: Should section 52 CDPA 1988 be reinstated?

description: This response submitted to public consultation argues that section 52 of the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act should be reinstated, thereby limiting the term of copyright protection in industrially applied artistic works to 25 years. Particularly, Brexit calls for a reassessment of the objectives which the section 52 repeal sought to pursue – namely, a perceived need to ensure clarity and consistency with EU law –, as those objectives may no longer be aligned with the interests or priorities of the UK. This is considered by the response within the context of freedom of competition and innovation, with concerns being raised in relation to the (cumulative) protection of product design. Additionally, UK court decisions assimilating recent CJEU jurisprudence on copyright subsistence suggest an expansion of protectable subject matter affecting previously unregulated creative industries such as fashion, which may warrant further analysis of the potential benefits of section 52.

description: We use a diffusion Monte Carlo method to solve the many-body Schrödinger equation describing fully-heavy tetraquark systems. This approach allows to reduce the uncertainty of the numerical calculation at the percent level, accounts for multi-particle correlations in the physical observables, and avoids the usual quark-clustering assumed in other theoretical techniques applied to the same problem. The interaction between particles was modeled by the most general and accepted potential, i.e. a pairwise interaction including Coulomb, linear-confining and hyperfine spin-spin terms. This means that, in principle, our analysis should provide some rigorous statements about the mass location of the all-heavy tetraquark ground states, which is particularly timely due to the very recent observation made by the LHCb collaboration of some enhancements in the invariant mass spectra of $J/ψ$-pairs. Our main results are: (i) the $cc\bar c\bar c$, $cc\bar b\bar b$ ($bb\bar c\bar c$) and $bb\bar b \bar b$ lowest-lying states are located well above their corresponding meson-meson thresholds; (ii) the $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ $cc\bar c\bar c$ ground state with preferred quark-antiquark pair configurations is compatible with the enhancement(s) observed by the LHCb collaboration; (iii) our results for the $cc\bar c\bar b$ and $bb\bar c\bar b$ sectors seem to indicate that the $0^+$ and $1^+$ ground states are almost degenerate with the $2^+$ located around $100\,\text{MeV}$ above them; (iv) smaller mass splittings for the $cb\bar c\bar b$ system are predicted, with absolute mass values in reasonable agreement with other theoretical works; (v) the $1^{++}$ $cb\bar c\bar b$ tetraquark ground state lies at its lowest $S$-wave meson-meson threshold and it is compatible with a molecular configuration.

description: Πολλά παιδιά αποτυγχάνουν στο μάθημα της φυσικής αγωγής επειδή αντιμετωπίζουν δυσκολίες στην κινητική μάθηση. Ωστόσο, επειδή το μάθημα της φυσικής αγωγής ξεκινά στο δημοτικό σχολείο, κανένα παιδί με αναπτυξιακή διαταραχή του κινητικού συντονισμού ή κινητική αδεξιότητα δεν αναγνωρίζεται πριν την είσοδό του στο σχολείο. Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας ήταν η διερεύνηση και η αξιολόγηση πιθανών διαταραχών στον κινητικό συντονισμό παιδιών προσχολικής ηλικίας. Στη μελέτη συμμετείχαν 412 παιδιά τεσσάρων έως έξι ετών, (208 αγόρια και 204 κορίτσια) από δημόσια νηπιαγωγεία διαφόρων περιοχών της Ηπείρου. Για την αξιολόγηση της κινητικής ικανότητας των παιδιών χρησιμοποιήθηκε η δοκιμασία ανίχνευσης διαταραχών κινητικού συντονισμού (movement ABC test των Henderson & Sugden, 1992). Από τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας φάνηκε ότι 370 παιδιά (89,9%) δεν παρουσίασαν κανένα πρόβλημα, 14 παιδιά (3,4%) παρουσίασαν δυσκολίες, και 28 παιδιά (6,7%) παρουσίασαν κινητική αδεξιότητα. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν σημαντικές διαφορές με τα μεγαλύτερα παιδιά να πετυχαίνουν καλύτερα σκορ (p
description: A lot of children fail in physical education lessons because they face difficulties in the motor learning. However, because the physical education lesson begins in the first grade of school, children with developmental disturbance of motor co-ordination or clumsiness are very difficult to be recognized before their entry in school. The aim of the present study was the exploration and the evaluation of possible disturbances in motor co-ordination of preschool aged children. The participants were 412 children 4 - 6 years, (208 boys and 204 girls) who attended public kindergartens of various regions of a place in Greece called Epirus. For the evaluation of motor ability “Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC –Henderson & Sugden, 1992)” was used. The results of the study showed that 370 children (89,9%) did not have any motor problem, 14 children (3,4%) presented difficulties, and 28 children (6,7%) presented clumsiness. The results showed that there were significant differences with the older children achieving better scores (p

description: Hydraulic tension fractures were produced in porous limestones using a specially designed hydraulic cell. The 3D geometry of the samples was imaged using X-ray computed microtomography before and after fracturation. Using these data, it was possible to estimate the permeability tensor of the core samples, extract the path of the rupture and compare it to the heterogeneities initially present in the rock.

description: Central cluster galaxies are the largest and most massive galaxies in the Universe. Although they host very old stellar populations, several studies found the existence of blue cores in some BCGs indicating ongoing star formation. We analyse VLT/X-Shooter stacked spectra of 6 nearby massive central galaxies with high central velocity dispersions ($σ$>300 km/s) at different galactocentric distances. We quantify the young stellar population out to 4 kpc by fitting near-UV and optical absorption line indices with predictions of composite stellar populations modelled by an old and a young stellar component. We also use IMF-sensitive indices since these galaxies have been found to host a bottom-heavy IMF in their central regions. We derive negative young stellar populations gradients, with mass fractions of stars younger than 1 Gyr decreasing with galactocentric distance, from 0.70% within 0.8 kpc to zero beyond 2 kpc. We also measure the mass fraction in young stars for individual galaxies in the highest S/N central regions. All the galaxies have young components of less than one percent. Our results clearly suggest that the star formation in massive central cluster galaxies takes place in their galaxy cores (<2 kpc), which, with deeper gravitational potential wells, are capable of retaining more gas. Among the possible sources for the gas required to form these young stars, our results are consistent with an in-situ origin via stellar evolution, which is sufficient to produce the observed young stellar populations.

description: In cooperation with Fayette County Schools, an evaluation of traffic flow and safety was conducted at school sites in Fayette County. The purpose of this evaluation was to identify potential safety risks currently existing at selected schools, recommend actions to reduce risks, and to decrease traffic congestion in and around school properties.  This report is a continuation of the traffic and safety project submitted to Fayette County Schools in September 1996. For this project, three schools were identified by Fayette County Schools as having traffic flow or safety problems that could benefit from detailed evaluation. The three schools were Clays Mill Elementary, Yates Elementary and Dunbar High. The responses to a survey questionnaire were compiled and used in these investigations. An on-site investigation was conducted at these three schools and an evaluation was completed by assessing the current conditions and offering recommendations for improvements. A set of maps was also prepared explaining any changes recommended for each of the school properties.

description: The present graduate thesis is the result of the elaboration of our research study under the subject “Road Safety Audits (RSA)”. This study was accomplished in the Postgraduate program of “Techniques and methods in the analysis, planning and management of space /Organisation and management of resources and work of growth” in the Faculty of Rural and Surveying Engineering (FRSE) of the School of Engineering in the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, at the academic year 2007-2008. The study negotiates the analysis of definition, importance and advantages of Road Safety Auditis in the planning and the operation of transport infrastructures. Firstly are being refered the manuals for Road Safety Audits of United Kingdom, New Zealand, Canada and U.S.A. These manuals organise the apropriate conduct of RSA in the various road programs. In addition, a Report of Road Safety Audit on the road network of Katerin was composed, in accordance with the manual of United Kingdom. In this report are presented some of the most basic problems that were observed at on the spot inspections of region, which were fulfilled by D.Papakostas and A.Charisoudis due their undergraduate thesis with title “ Road Safety Audit for the road network Katerini, Pieria, Norhtern Greece” and finally actions for reduction or resolution are proposed.
Subsurface Drainage of Highway Pavements

description: Properly designed and constructed drainage layers can be used for effective control of surface water infiltration. Former pavement design methods often have resulted in base courses that have not drained well, thereby resulting in some premature failures of the pavement structure. The Kentucky Department of Highways is currently reviewing proposed guidelines for design of highway pavements. The guidelines propose the use of open graded, free draining, aggregate bases for controlling infiltrated surface water. However, interim design guidelines do not specifically address the design of aggregate drainage blankets. The purpose of this study was to develop recommendations relating to the specification, design, and construction of pavement drainage layers as an integral part of the pavement structure.
Variety of stylolites morphologies and statistical characterization of the amount of heterogeneities in the rock

description: The surface roughness of several stylolites in limestones was measured using high resolution laser profilometry. The 1D signals obtained were statistically analyzed to determine the scaling behavior and calculate a roughness exponent, also called Hurst exponent. Statistical methods based on the characterization of a single Hurst exponent imply strong assumptions on the mathematical characteristics of the signal: the derivative of the signal (or local increments) should be stationary and have finite variance. The analysis of the measured stylolites show that these properties are not always verified simultaneously. The stylolite profiles show persistence and jumps and several stylolites are not regular, with alternating regular and irregular portions. A new statistical method is proposed here, based on a non-stationary but Gaussian model, to estimate the roughness of the profiles and quantify the heterogeneity of stylolites. This statistical method is based on two parameters: the local roughness (H) which describes the local amplitude of the stylolite, and the amount of irregularities on the signal (μ), which can be linked to the heterogeneities initially present in the rock before the stylolite formed. Using this technique, a classification of the stylolites in two families is proposed: those for which the morphology is homogeneous everywhere and those with alternating regular and irregular portions.
Placing culture at the centre of the Kenyan curriculum : a participatory action research inquiry
Creators: name: Maina, Faith
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Most societies around the world strive to transmit their culture and world view to succeeding generations through education. This is important because individuals with strong cultural identities become independent and self-reliant people who are functional in their own environment. People who have little sense of their cultural identity or have been alienated from their culture often become dependent and lack the skills of meaningful survival in their own environment. Societies that have suffered colonial domination in the past can find themselves socializing their children with the cultural values and world view of the colonizing power which obviously undermines their own cultural identity. In the republic of Kenya, this problem has been acknowledged and documented by academics and educators but there seems to be a lack of political will to make effective and lasting changes to the curriculum. This study explored the kind of curriculum that fosters cultural relevance. It examined ways in which curriculum can become a place in which cultural values, knowledge, skills and beliefs that provide foundations for identity can be understood, defined and interpreted. Five teachers and I came together to explore the possibilities of tapping the local resources to enrich the school curriculum in Kenya so that teachers begin to use both material and human resources which are locally available to meet curriculum goals. By using the local resources, the learners began to view the local knowledge and skills as being important to school knowledge. The study employs participatory action research which derives strength from its emphasis on shifting the power balance between the researcher and researched, encouraging dialogical relationships, providing a voice and feelings to disenfranchised peoples and showing commitment to social transformation through action and reflection. The research methods were primarily dialogue and conversations, discussions, creation of discourses and reflections. The thesis documents some of the struggles, tensions and frustrations associated with participatory action research for educational change. This research makes clear that experiential knowing emerges through participation with others and people can learn to be self-reflexive about their world and their actions within it.

description: In this paper we develop the theory of Willmore sequences for Willmore surfaces in the 4-sphere. We show that under appropriate conditions this sequence has to terminate. In this case the Willmore surface either is the twistor projection of a holomorphic curve into complex projective space or the inversion of a minimal surface with planar ends in 4-space. These results give a unified explanation of previous work on the characterization of Willmore spheres and Willmore tori with non-trivial normal bundles by various authors.
