description: As distance from the Holocaust increases, the crucial task of representing the genocide in order to perpetuate its memory passes to later generations. In the past fifteen years, third-generation authors (defined here as the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors) have emerged, according to Alan L. Berger, as "the new bearers of Shoah representation" ("Michael Chabon's " 81). However, while the fields of psychology and, more recently, epigenetics, have started examining the impact of inherited trauma on the third generation, there is currently little scholarship on the distinct characteristics of third-generation literature and the position from which it is written.

Through the methodology of creative practice research, this PhD asks: from the distance of the third generation, how can the traumatic legacy of the Holocaust be articulated in literature? Which narrative strategies might third-generation authors use to convey the unsettling yet generative tension at the heart of their experience: both the burden of their familial inheritance, and the fact they are generationally removed and sheltered from the atrocities of the Holocaust by their parents and grandparents?

This overarching enquiry has two outcomes: a dissertation, and a literary fiction novel titled The Gap. These symbiotic artefacts arose in response to, and seek to elucidate, the same overall investigation. Within its contemporary Australian suburban setting, The Gap explores themes of fragmentation and absence in the wake of the Holocaust, and examines how the perceived safety and comfort of suburbia can appear to offer refuge against the wounds of the past. The dissertation canvasses the field of third-generation literature - including the techniques third-generation author Daniel Mendelsohn uses in his memoir, The Lost (2006), as well as the writing of The Gap - in order to consider how the third-generation's complicated traumatic inheritance manifests in their writing. As a whole, this PhD argues that it is through a series of interconnected yet distinct narrative strategies - encompassing theme, genre, point-of-view, and specific narrative tropes - that third-generation authors can formulate and express their unique relationship to the Holocaust.

This research project has broader implications for the writing of trauma in a post-testimonial age. Its findings advance understanding of how creative writing functions as a vital method for remembering and preserving painful histories.

subject: Acoustics and noise control (excl. architectural acoustics)

description: The prediction and optimization of the acoustic effects of interior trim acoustic products (porous sound absorbing materials) on cabin interior noise level are complex and challenging. This research aims to develop an experimentally validated acoustic model to effectively predict/optimize the cabin interior noise level and its interaction with porous sound absorbing materials. Firstly, the sound absorption coefficients of porous sound absorbing materials are experimentally measured by using the two microphone transfer function method and the reverberation chamber method. Then, an inverse method for acoustic material characterization based on normal incidence impedance tube measurements is used. In order to measure/predict the cabin interior noise level due to structure borne noise (force excitation) and airborne noise (acoustic excitation), a scaled down coupled structural acoustic system imitating a car cabin is set up. The car cabin is made of six rigid walls, and one flexible plate is mounted on the front firewall position. The porous sound absorbing material is applied to the inner surface of the plate and modifies the coupling between the plate and the cabin air cavity. The plate is mechanically excited by using an electromagnetic shaker, which is imitating the structure borne radiated noise, and the airborne noise is acoustically excited by using a loudspeaker. The radiated noise is recorded by using pressure microphones at different locations inside the car cabin. The prediction of the acoustic effects of the porous sound absorbing material on a car cabin structural acoustic coupling system is conducted by using FEM (Finite Element Method) and SEA (Statistical Energy Analysis) for structure borne noise and airborne noise analysis, respectively. Based on the model proposed, the effect of the interior trim porous materials on the acoustic properties is investigated by using the Sound Pressure Level (SPL) at the microphone locations. Finally, the experimentally acquired acoustic properties of the porous sound absorbing material are compared with the numerical simulation results. The simulation results show that the proposed model agrees well with the experimental data. The noise propagating inside the car cabin is predicted to be at a similar level in both the experimental method and in the numerical analysis. Moreover, the effects of the acoustic pressure response of porous material on the structural acoustic system are analysed and discussed. The experimental data and results presented in this thesis, are useful for enhancing vehicle interior trim design and refining vehicle cabin acoustic quality in future vehicles.

description: Contemporary and forthcoming transistor designs exhibit domain sizes on the nanoscale. At these length scales quantum effects begin to dominate and (semi-)classical models of transport break down. In this work we discuss the efficient, accurate and expedient simulation of quantum systems at the nanoscale and provide examples thereof. We explore novel Finite Difference stencils for a new class of system. A review of simulation literature is discussed and analytic solutions are provided for a class of systems. A hybrid technique for efficient evaluation of non-equilibrium density matrices and their derivatives is discussed. A new method for simulating dissipation using Büttiker probes is demonstrated using a phonon model in graphene nanoribbons. Lastly, the quantum spin-hall insulator model of Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang is simulated in the presence of polarized magnetic defects demonstrating novel effects. The techniques of this thesis provide a fully comprehensible method of simulating quantum transport in a diverse range of nanoelectronic devices from scratch.

description: We study the refined and unrefined crystal/BPS partition functions of D6-D2-D0 brane bound states for all toric Calabi-Yau threefolds without compact 4-cycles and some non-toric examples. They can be written as products of (generalized) MacMahon functions. We check our expressions and use them as vacuum characters to study the gluings. We then consider the wall crossings and discuss possible crystal descriptions for different chambers. We also express the partition functions in terms of plethystic exponentials. For $\mathbb{C}^3$ and tripled affine quivers, we find their connections to nilpotent Kac polynomials. Similarly, the partition functions of D4-D2-D0 brane bound states can be obtained by replacing the (generalized) MacMahon functions with the inverse of (generalized) Euler functions.

description: Two cryogenic bath-type heat exchangers for ultra-pure noble gas applications were developed with particular emphasis on noble gas liquefaction in cryogenic distillation systems. The main objective was to construct heat exchangers for xenon from materials that do not emanate radon and that fulfill ultra-high vacuum standards. Therefore, only high-quality copper and stainless steel materials were used. Especially, large-area oxygen-free copper fins with high conductivity in a new design ensure efficient heat transfer. One bath-type Xe-Xe heat exchanger was designed with a diameter of 50 cm to achieve a xenon condensing capacity of at least 100 kg/h. In order to guarantee the necessary heat transfer between the two xenon reservoirs, this heat exchanger features a specially manufactured stainless steel flange with a copper plate welded inside. We first tested our concept on a dedicated bath-type heat exchanger with a reduced diameter of 30 cm using liquid nitrogen to liquefy the xenon. A model based on conservative assumptions such as film boiling on the nitrogen side and film condensation on the xenon side was developed and applied to caluclate the expected heat transfer for our design. We were able to demonstrate an adjustable xenon liquefaction rate of up to 113 kg/h limited only by our measurement procedure at a cooling efficiency of $(0.98\pm 0.03)$ for the LN$_2$-Xe heat exchanger.

description: Motivated by the recent experimental realizations of hyperbolic lattices in circuit quantum electrodynamics and the research interest in the non-Euclidean generalization of topological phenomena, we investigate the Chern insulator phases in a hyperbolic $\{8,3\}$ lattice, which is made from regular octagons ($8$-gons) such that the coordination number of each lattice site is $3$. Based on the conformal projection of the hyperbolic lattice into the Euclidean plane, i.e., the Poincaré disk model, by calculating the Bott index ($B$) and the two-terminal conductance, we reveal two Chern insulator phases (with $B=1$ and $B=-1$, respectively) accompanied with quantized conductance plateaus in the hyperbolic $\{8,3\}$ lattice. The numerical calculation results of the nonequilibrium local current distribution further confirm that the quantized conductance plateau originates from the chiral edge states and the two Chern insulator phases exhibit opposite chirality. Moreover, we explore the effect of disorder on topological phases in the hyperbolic lattice. It is demonstrated that the chiral edge states of Chern insulators are robust against weak disorder in the hyperbolic lattice. More fascinating is the discovery of disorder-induced topological non-trivial phases exhibiting chiral edge states in the hyperbolic lattice, realizing a non-Euclidean analog of topological Anderson insulator. Our work provides a route for the exploration of topological non-trivial states in hyperbolic geometric systems.

description: In today's society, corrosion protection of structural aluminium alloys in the aerospace, marine, automotive and construction industry is of paramount importance. This is commonly achieved through the use of corrosion inhibiting compounds. Constraints such as potential health issues associated with exposure to conventional chromate-based corrosion inhibitors, has led to the development of low toxicity corrosion inhibitors for a wide range of industries and since then, much work has been carried out on evaluating inhibitor performance and associated mechanisms, but only a few studies have been done on understanding in detail film forming characteristics of certain inhibitors. Therefore, this study presents key aspects of the film forming behaviour of the selected inhibitors and the test methods used to evaluate the inhibitor induced films in a chloride solution. This study also aims to provide significant insights to the film tenacity, the influence of the molecular structure as well as the film stability in the absence of inhibitors to provide a deeper understanding of the film forming and film breakdown mechanisms. This study was focussed on two inhibitors that are known for their high corrosion inhibition efficiency for the protection of aluminium AA2024-T3 alloy, namely 2-mercaptobenzothiazole and Na-mercaptopropionic acid. During this work, a wide range of electrochemical methods were utilised in conjunction with various surface analysis methods to understand inhibitor induced film formation.

description: The nursing profession is generally considered a stressful occupation. The stressful nature of the nursing profession has been associated with long working hours, complex work environment and exposure to various physical and mental health stressors. There is a growing body of evidence on the various factors associated with occupational stress. While most of this evidence come from studies in Western countries, only a few research studies have provided some understanding of occupational stress among nurses in Saudi Arabia and neighbouring countries. Unfortunately, very few of these studies have explored occupational stress from the perception and experience of the nurses affected. Also, there is limited understanding of coping strategies adopted by nurses and the relative effectiveness of these coping strategies. This study therefore intended to employ a mixed method study to investigate the various factors resulting in stress for nurses working in Saudi emergency departments, explore these nurses' perceptions and experience of stress and the coping strategies they find helpful. The study sampled all nurses working in the emergency departments of three large Saudi Arabian hospitals (n=441). A questionnaire with 86 items across four domains was developed, pilot-tested and validated for this study and used to collect quantitative data. A purposive sample of 35 nurses expressed interest to be interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide to collect qualitative data. IBM SPSS was used to analyse the quantitative data, while Nvivo QSR was used to manage, code, and analyse the qualitative data. A total of 296 nurses returned completed questionnaires analysed for the study and 21 nurses were interviewed for the qualitative phase of the study. For the quantitative phase, 89.5% (n=265) of the sample were females, 51% aged 20-29 (n=151), 83% non-Saudi citizens (n=246), 49% married (n=145) and 82% hold a Bachelor's degree as their minimum educational qualification (n=245). Work overload, staff shortages and inadequate pay were reported as the most significant causes of occupational stress. Five major themes emerged from the qualitative phase data which supports high work volume, rising costs of living despite same pay and staff shortages as major stressors. Also, the study found strong working and supporting relationships exist among the nurses, and that praying and spending time with friends/family are the predominant coping methods among the nurses. The findings of this study contribute to better understanding of the work conditions of nurses in tertiary and secondary Saudi hospitals and can help to inform policy development and practice reforms geared towards improving the welfare, health and overall work experience of nurses in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

description: The new charmed resonance $ D_2^*(3000) $ was observed by the LHCb Collaboration in $ B $ decays. In this paper, by assigning it as four possible excited states of the $ 2^+ $ family, we use the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter method to calculate their Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-allowed two-body strong decays. The results of $ 1^3F_2 $ and $ 3^3P_2 $ states deviate from the present experimental observation while $ 2^3P_2 $ and $ 2^3F_2 $ are in the error range. Our study also reveals that the widths of these states depend strongly on the masses. Due to the large uncertainties and different mass input, variable models get inconsistent conclusions at the moment. The analysis in this work can provide essential assistance for future measurements and investigations.

description: We introduce a decomposition of the Hilbert space of continuous-variable quantum mechanics into two separate subsystems, by providing a tensor-product basis for said Hilbert space. One subsystem is 2-dimensional and is interpreted as "logical", while the remaining subsystem is another quantum mode. The decomposition allows one to extract qubits that are compatible with the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill code from any continuous-variable state. We will then show that any continuous-variable computational scheme carries qubit information. We argue how, and in which sense, this construction bridges the gap between standard, qubit-based quantum computing and continuous-variable quantum computing. Finally, we apply the decomposition to various situations of interest for continuous-variable quantum computing: in particular, we reveal the logical information carried by continuous-variable cluster states in their idealized, infinite-energy version and in their physical approximations.

description: Plastische Verformung beeinflusst die Eigenschaften eines Reibkontaktes. Es ist daher wichtig, grundlegende Versetzungsmechanismen in Reibkontakten zu verstehen. In dieser Arbeit wird der Bildungsmechanismus von prismatischen Versetzungsstrukturen unter einer einzelnen Asperität und der Versetzungstransport unter einer fahrenden Asperität mit dreidimensionalen Versetzungsdynamik-Simulationen im kubisch flächenzentrierten Metall untersucht.

Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass sich unter Indentierung je nach Kristallorientierung und je nach Orientierung des Burgersvektors aus einer Versetzungsquelle verschiedene prismatische Versetzungsstrukturen ausbilden. Der Bildungsmechanismus ist durch deterministisches bzw. stochastisches Quergleiten von Versetzungen geprägt, welches mit dem aufgelösten Spannungsfeld des Indenters und Versetzungsinteraktionen erklärt werden kann.

In einem Gleitkontakt werden Versetzungen durch eine fahrende Asperität in ursprünglich versetzungsfreie Bereiche transportiert. Die Simulationen zeigen, dass für die Transportlänge die Kristallorientierung, der Burgersvektor der Versetzung und die Fahrtrichtung der Asperität entscheidend sind. Es wird ein Modell entwickelt, um jene Gleitsysteme zu identifizieren, auf denen Versetzungen mittransportiert werden. Dabei spielt die Gleitebenenorientierung und das aufgelöste Schubspannungsfeld des Indenters eine zentrale Rolle.

description: We report investigation of ferromagnetic resonance phenomenon in ferromagnetic thin films with essentially non-uniform composition. Epitaxial Pd-Fe thin film with linear distribution of Fe content across the thickness is used as the model material. Anomalous perpendicular standing spin waves are observed and quantified using the collective dynamic equation. Numerical analysis yields the exchange stiffness constant for diluted Pd-Fe alloy $D=2A/μ_0M_s=15$~T$\cdot$nm$^2$ and the ratio of the effective magnetization to the saturation magnetization $M_{eff}/M_s=1.16$. It is demonstrated that, overall, engineering of thin films with non-uniform composition across the thickness can be used for high-frequency or low-field magnonic operations using exchange spin waves.

description: In a Federated Learning (FL) setup, a number of devices contribute to the training of a common model. We present a method for selecting the devices that provide updates in order to achieve improved generalization, fast convergence, and better device-level performance. We formulate a min-max optimization problem and decompose it into a primal-dual setup, where the duality gap is used to quantify the device-level performance. Our strategy combines \emph{exploration} of data freshness through a random device selection with \emph{exploitation} through simplified estimates of device contributions. This improves the performance of the trained model both in terms of generalization and personalization. A modified Truncated Monte-Carlo (TMC) method is applied during the exploitation phase to estimate the device's contribution and lower the communication overhead. The experimental results show that the proposed approach has a competitive performance, with lower communication overhead and competitive personalization performance against the baseline schemes.

description: Bell states are a fundamental resource in photonic quantum information processing. These states have been generated successfully in many photonic degrees of freedom. Their manipulation, however, in the momentum space remains challenging. Here, we present a scheme for engineering the symmetry of two-photon states entangled in the transverse momentum degree of freedom through the use of a spatially variable phase object. We demonstrate how a Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer must be constructed to verify the symmetry in momentum entanglement via photon "bunching"/"anti-bunching" observation. We also show how this approach allows generating states that acquire an arbitrary phase under the exchange operation.

Among My Souvenirs: the role of site, artefact and embodiment as tools of remembrance in material and visual culture

description: This research project examines expanded drawing practices as enquiry into objects, materials, spaces and actions with memorial significance, the making of inclusive forms of memorialisation, and the siting of critical social dialogues between personal and cultural histories.

It engages sites of memory ranging from the private souvenir, across formal spaces of public memory and monuments, to the local-community, experiential place of the everyday shop-front window. Understood propositionally, these may manifest discursive, porous and alternative commemorative practices that suggest new ways of constructing meaning in encountered commemoration.

The research realises outcomes as artworks themselves whose processes embody the subject they examine; in the public display and social encounter with propositional 'memory work' addressing its themes, and in a dissertation, whose art practice-led research contributes to the field of memory practices.

Among My Souvenirs intertwines personal memory and historical memorialisation to uncover methodologies and methods within art practice with which to suggest, as a community, we can engage with existing public memorials to our past and develop propositional counter-memorials that activate agency of the audience in a critical negotiation of social dialogues of remembrance.
Strong cosmic censorship conjecture for a charged BTZ black hole

description: The strong cosmic censorship conjecture, whose validation asserts the deterministic nature of general relativity, has been studied for charged BTZ black holes in three dimensional general relativity, as well as for Nth order pure Lovelock gravity in d=2N+1 spacetime dimensions. Through both analytical and numerical routes, we have computed the ratio of the imaginary part of the quasi-normal mode frequencies with the surface gravity at the Cauchy horizon. The lowest of which corresponds to the key parameter associated with violation of strong cosmic censorship conjecture. Our results demonstrate that this parameter is always less than the critical value $(1/2)$, thereby respecting the strong cosmic censorship conjecture. This is in complete contrast to the four or, higher dimensional black holes, as well as for rotating BTZ black hole, where the violation of strong cosmic censorship conjecture exists. Implications and possible connection with the stability of the photon orbits have been discussed.

description: The creative and cultural industries, which are industries that specialise in the creation, manufacturing and distribution of goods that are cultural in nature or hold cultural significance, provide avenues through which entrepreneurs can capitalise on the commercialisation of unique commodities produced by their communities and create important income opportunities for said communities. The handloom industry of Bangladesh is one such industry. The garments made from handlooms are important to the local fashion industry; however the industry has largely failed to evolve with changing consumer demands and economic landscapes. Through an exploration of the sociocultural, economic, technological, and political influences that are present in the region, this research explores the causes of the stagnancy of this industry and the factors that could instead nurture its creative potential. Through the employment of a case study method, the researcher studied the key personnel and operations of a company that stands outs in its creative endeavours by breaking traditional moulds using handlooms to design apparel suitable for international markets and by planning to export them overseas. Using Charmaz's (2006) guidelines for the analysis of qualitative data and construction of theory, the researcher analysed the empirical data that was collected for this research, by taking into account established literature and theories, mainly, Csikszentmihalyi's Systems Theory of Creativity, Ralston's Crossvergence Theory, concepts taken from Hofstede's Dimensions of National Culture, and Rational Action Theory. The combined application of these theories allowed for an comprehensive exploration of both the sociocultural factors and business ideologies which shape the understandings, perspectives, and behaviours of the case study participants. The multi-step analysis of the data revealed the key influence of multicultural experiences and exposures in shaping and encouraging creative behaviour. It was discovered that each participant had been exposed to different cultures in a variety of manners, and these differing exposures have led to unique creatively entrepreneurial behaviours that were not generally observed in their wider community.

description: We analyze the possibility of the existence of a fully exotic pentaquark state $udsc\bar{b}$, which is made from the five different flavors participarting in the strong interactions. We investigate the coupled channel effects of the $B^{(*)} Ξ_c-B^{(*)} Ξ_c^\prime$ system through $t$-channel vector meson exchange to search for such states. A $B Ξ_c$ and a $B Ξ_c^\prime$ bound state are found to have binding energies of about $10-30$~MeV with $B_sΛ_c$ and $B_cΛ$ being the possible decay channels. Similarly, a bound state is formed in the $B^* Ξ_c$ and $B^* Ξ_c^\prime$ channels, respectively. These states could be searched for through the $pp\to B_cΛX$ or $pp\to B_s^{(*)}Λ_c X$ processes by the LHCb collaboration.

Deepfake Style Transfer Mixture: a First Forensic Ballistics Study on Synthetic Images

description: Most recent style-transfer techniques based on generative architectures are able to obtain synthetic multimedia contents, or commonly called deepfakes, with almost no artifacts. Researchers already demonstrated that synthetic images contain patterns that can determine not only if it is a deepfake but also the generative architecture employed to create the image data itself. These traces can be exploited to study problems that have never been addressed in the context of deepfakes. To this aim, in this paper a first approach to investigate the image ballistics on deepfake images subject to style-transfer manipulations is proposed. Specifically, this paper describes a study on detecting how many times a digital image has been processed by a generative architecture for style transfer. Moreover, in order to address and study accurately forensic ballistics on deepfake images, some mathematical properties of style-transfer operations were investigated.

Envelope: interpretations of a design practice engaged in sustainability and fashion
Creators: name: Van Kopplen, Anthea
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024

description: This research project, Envelope, adheres to the formative design principle of Beginning With the End in Mind, the author’s thesis being that design practice has the capacity to improve society’s engagement with the everyday when deliberately connected to the object of realising elevated sustainability outcomes.

This thesis was proposed as a response to an initial gap recognised at the outset, that fashion designers were challenged when trying to address issues of excess by introducing sustainability using the blunt instruments of labour, and conservation of raw materials and energy, rather than a tri-lateral set of work, ethic and aesthetic design principles.

Sustapoeia is a neologism pronounced sus-ta-pay-ah and used to describe the teleological relationship between work, ethic and aesthetic systems of fashion. Translated from ancient Greek, sustapoeia is the art of making, describing a teleological relationship defined by ethics, work and aesthetics and oscillating between observation and production in practice.

The main narrative reflects an application of Hofstadter’s ‘I’ principle (1979), ‘I’ being the ontological, compassionate and collaborative experimenter who responds to community needs rather than the needs of Ego (Auge, 1995): Through making, a designer can connect beyond self to the aggregate good (Smith, 2011).

This thesis is a social object divided into five stories: Envelope Open, Making Material Think, Cool Campaign, Envelope, and Envelope Closed.

Making Material Think provides a context for observations made of designers participating in events described in section three, Cool Campaign, and section four, Envelope. The sections address the design thinking that motivated the author’s management of designers’ transition from unconscious excess of ego to ethical observers and producers focused on sustainability outcomes.

Cool Campaign and Envelope are two central accounts of my research: teaching and design practice. They describe work-based research undertaken to explore, test and develop the initial thesis.

Cool Campaign relates to five bodies of work-related teaching that underpin development of ways to achieve freedom and justice, described by terms such as Aesthetics of Protection, Supermodern Waste and Transportable Environments.

The human acts that make up Envelope are collaborative social events. This section focuses on the processes of work, ethics and aesthetics within creative landscapes and examines future platforms for achieving freedom and justice, describing them under headings like Tyranny of Distance and Eco-sense Studio.

Envelope Closed was written at the conclusion of the teaching and collaborative events in 2014.
