description: We present a new high-order finite volume reconstruction method for hyperbolic conservation laws. The method is based on a piecewise cubic polynomial which provides its solutions a fifth-order accuracy in space. The spatially reconstructed solutions are evolved in time with a fourth-order accuracy by tracing the characteristics of the cubic polynomials. As a result, our temporal update scheme provides a significantly simpler and computationally more efficient approach in achieving fourth order accuracy in time, relative to the comparable fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. We demonstrate that the solutions of PCM converges in fifth-order in solving 1D smooth flows described by hyperbolic conservation laws. We test the new scheme in a range of numerical experiments, including both gas dynamics and magnetohydrodynamics applications in multiple spatial dimensions.

description: The interaction of high intensity laser radiation with underdense plasma may lead to the formation of electron vortices. Though being quasistationary on an electron timescales, these structures tend to expand on a proton timescale due to Coloumb repulsion of ions. Using a simple analytical model of a stationary vortex as initial condition, 2D PIC simulations are performed. A number of effects are observed such as vortex boundary field intensification, multistream instabilities at the vortex boundary, and bending of the vortex boundary with the subsequent transformation into smaller electron vortices.

description: A recent job advertisement for a curatorial role at the British Library, the national library of the United Kingdom, reflects the changing nature, and digital competency requirements for professionals working in cultural heritage and research libraries: · Contribute to and undertake work on digitisation and digital projects · Assist in implementing new technologies to make the collections more accessible through online presence or through digital tools · Have experience or familiarity with a variety of information technology skills underpinning digital research methods and practices (e.g. geo-referencing, text mining) Due to the scale and diversity of the digital collections held by the BL, from digitised manuscripts to the UK Web Archive, and changing library services and researcher demands, staff in curatorial and collections roles need to keep abreast of the issues, opportunities and strategies involved in working with such collections, if only a cursory understanding of approaches used in programming, data science, big data, machine learning, text mining, data analytics, cloud computing, and visualisation. Over the last seven years, the Digital Curator Team at British Library have designed and delivered a bespoke Digital Scholarship training programme for staff to demystify these topics and more. Through a range of onsite internally developed short courses, hack & yacks, reading groups and staff talks, the Digital Curator team in 2018/2019 held 40 training events attended by 848 staff members. In recent years however there has been a notable increase in demand from colleagues for more advanced and formal computational training, with staff looking to acquire programming skills in Python in particular. This poster will focus on a recent initiative to meet this need and extend the activities of the Digital Scholarship Training Programme through the development of a new part-time, master’s level, Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in computing for information professionals in cultural heritage with Birkbeck, University of London.
How might theological action research enable the local church to engage with and respond to the Anthropocene and climate change?

description: The Anthropocene reveals a planet in profound crisis on multiple fronts. One of its manifestations, anthropogenic climate change, continues to adversely impact humans and nature, and vulnerable communities who have contributed the least to the climate crisis are being disproportionately affected. As a Church of England vicar, I know that the local church has a positive role to play in tackling climate change. However, many parishes are not responding for various reasons. This research proposes that an intervention is required in the church community to change the conversation and allow new voices to be heard in dialogue with each other on these issues, including theological ones. Consequently, I located this study in the discipline of practical theology and explored the approach of Theological Action Research (TAR) in the local context. The Anthropocene lens was used primarily as a stimulus for theological reflection on human domination over nature in light of the biblical imperative for creation care (Gen.1:26-28).The research took place in my parish over a period of seven months. It consisted of a partnership between parishioners in a focus group and diocesan ministry leaders in an external support group. Both worked collaboratively to progress the focus group’s action plan. My research produced four main findings: the practitioner-researcher role was pivotal to participant engagement; diverse voices engaged positively in a co-creative theological and environmental project; the Dream Initiative culminated in a plan to reduce the church’s carbon footprint; using the Four Voices of Theology and Lectio Divina was challenging for some but led to significant theological insights and participants realizing humankind’s role in the climate crisis.The above findings indicate that using Theological Action Research as an intervention was very effective. Participants engaged deeply in theological reflection on the Anthropocene and climate change, and the result was meaningful climate action.
Strongly magnetized rotating dipole in general relativity

description: Electromagnetic waves arise in many area of physics. Solutions are difficult to find in the general case. In this paper, we numerically integrate Maxwell equations in a 3D spherical polar coordinate system. Straightforward finite difference methods would lead to a coordinate singularity along the polar axis. Spectral methods are better suited to deal with such artificial singularities related to the choice of a coordinate system. When the radiating object is rotating like for instance a star, special classes of solutions to Maxwell equations are worthwhile to study such as quasi-stationary regimes. Moreover, in high-energy astrophysics, strong gravitational and magnetic fields are present especially around rotating neutron stars. In order to study such systems, we designed an algorithm to solve the time-dependent Maxwell equations in spherical polar coordinates including general relativity as well as quantum electrodynamical corrections to leading order. As a diagnostic, we compute the spindown luminosity expected from these stars and compare it to the classical i.e. non relativistic and non quantum mechanical results. It is shown that quantum electrodynamics leads to an irrelevant change in the spindown luminosity even for magnetic field around the critical value of $\numprint{4.4e9}$~\si{\tesla}. Therefore the braking index remains close to its value for a point dipole in vacuum namely $n=3$. The same conclusion holds for a general-relativistic quantum electrodynamically corrected force-free magnetosphere.

description: The thermodynamic bag model (tdBag) has been applied widely to model quark matter properties in both heavy-ion and astrophysics communities. Several fundamental physics aspects are missing in tdBag, e.g., dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (D$χ$SB) and repulsions due to the vector interaction are both included explicitly in the novel vBag quark matter model of Klähn and Fischer (2015) (Astrophys. J. 810, 134 (2015)). An important feature of vBag is the simultaneous D$χ$SB and deconfinement, where the latter links vBag to a given hadronic model for the construction of the phase transition. In this article we discuss the extension to finite temperatures and the resulting phase diagram for the isospin symmetric medium.

description: H βιώσιμη ανάπτυξη (Sustainable Development) ή βιωσιμότητα (Sustainability), βρίσκεται στο επίκεντρο της παγκόσμιας ατζέντας ως απάντηση στις περιβαλλοντικές, οικονομικές και κοινωνικές προκλήσεις. Σήμερα, ένας αυξανόμενος αριθμός εταιρειών, υιοθετούν μια εταιρική στρατηγική βιώσιμης ανάπτυξης (Corporate Sustainability Strategy) ώστε να λειτουργούν υπεύθυνα και να διασφαλίζουν τη μακροπρόθεσμη επιτυχία τους και βιωσιμότητα. Η εφαρμογή μιας τέτοιας στρατηγικής μπορεί να βοηθήσει τις εταιρείες να δημιουργήσουν μακροπρόθεσμη αξία για τα ενδιαφερόμενα μέρη, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των εργαζομένων, των πελατών, των προμηθευτών, των επενδυτών και της ευρύτερης κοινότητας. Ενώ η έρευνα για την εταιρική στρατηγική βιωσιμότητας και το επιχειρηματικό ενδιαφέρον, είχε προηγουμένως επικεντρωθεί στις εξωτερικές επιπτώσεις στο περιβάλλον και την κοινωνία, τα τελευταία χρόνια παρατηρείται αυξανόμενο ενδιαφέρον, για τον εσωτερικό κοινωνικό αντίκτυπό που έχει στους εργαζόμενους και στο χώρο εργασίας. Μελέτες έχουν δείξει, ότι η εφαρμογή μιας στρατηγικής βιωσιμότητας μπορεί να οδηγήσει σε οφέλη για τους εργαζόμενους, όπως αυξημένη εργασιακή δέσμευση, ικανοποίηση από την εργασία, παρακίνηση, νόημα και βελτιωμένη υγεία και ευεξία, τα οποία με τη σειρά τους οδηγούν και σε καλύτερα επιχειρηματικά αποτελέσματα. Ως εκ τούτου, η ενθάρρυνση της εργασιακής δέσμευσης (Work Engagement) και της νοηματοδότησης της εργασίας (Work Meaningfulness) είναι ζωτικής σημασίας στο σημερινό μεταβαλλόμενο εργασιακό περιβάλλον, όπου οι οργανισμοί πρέπει να προσελκύουν και να διατηρούν κορυφαία ταλέντα. H παρούσα εργασία διερευνά το πώς επιδρά η στρατηγική βιώσιμης ανάπτυξης στην εργασιακή δέσμευση και τη νοηματοδότηση που βιώνουν οι εργαζόμενοι. Για τη διεξαγωγή της έρευνας, σχεδιάστηκε ένα ηλεκτρονικό ερωτηματολόγιο και συλλέχθηκαν 118 απαντήσεις από εργαζομένους σε ιδιωτική εταιρεία, που εφαρμόζει στρατηγική βιώσιμης ανάπτυξης. Από τα αποτελέσματα προέκυψε ότι η εταιρική στρατηγική βιωσιμότητας μπορεί να συμβάλει στην ενίσχυση της εργασιακής δέσμευσης και της νοηματοδότησης της εργασίας καθώς και ότι μαζί με την νοηματοδότηση αλληλοεπιδρούν για να προβλέψουν την εργασιακή δέσμευση.

description: Ranked set sampling is an approach to data collection originally combines simple random sampling with the field investigator's professional knowledge and judgment to pick places to collect samples. Alternatively, field screening measurements can replace professional judgment when appropriate and analysis that continues to stimulate substantial methodological research. The use of ranked set sampling increases the chance that the collected samples will yield representative measurements. This results in better estimates of the mean as well as improved performance of many statistical procedures. Moreover, ranked set sampling can be more cost-efficient than simple random sampling because fewer samples need to be collected and measured. The use of professional judgment in the process of selecting sampling locations is a powerful incentive to use ranked set sampling. This paper is devoted to the study, we introduce an approach to the mean estimators in ranked set sampling. The amount of information carried by the auxiliary variable is measured with the on populations and samples and to use this information in the estimator, the basic ratio and the generalized exponential ratio estimators are as an improved form of a difference cum exponential ratio type estimator under the ranked set sampling in order to estimate the population mean Ῡ of study variate Y using single auxiliary variable X. The expressions for the mean squared error of propose estimator under ranked set sampling is derived and theoretical comparisons are made with competing estimators. We show that the proposed estimator has a lower mean square error than the existing estimators. In addition, these theoretical results are supported with the aid of some real data sets using R studio. Therefore, Under RSS architecture, a better difference cum exponential ratio type estimator has been suggested. The estimator's mathematical form has been developed, and its efficiency requirements have been developed in relation to various already-existing estimators from the literature. By imputing various values for the constants used in the creation of our proposed estimator, we also provide several specific situations of our estimator.

description: In this article, a new one-parameter discrete distribution called discrete Burr-Hatke exponential distribution is introduced and its mathematical characteristics are thoroughly investigated. The proposed distribution is capable of modelling over-dispersed, positively skewed, decreasing failure rate, and randomly right-censored data. We have also introduced many statistical properties including moments, skewness, kurtosis, mean residual life and mean past lifetime, index of dispersion, coefficient of variation, stress strength parameter, quantile function, and order statistics. Method of maximum likelihood is used to estimate unknown model’s parameter under complete and censored data. In addition, a technique for generating randomly right-censored data from the proposed model is provided. To evaluate the behaviour of the estimator with complete and censored data, two simulation studies are presented. Two complete and two censored datasets from various disciplines are studied to demonstrate the significance of the suggested distribution in comparison to the existing discrete probability distributions.

description: TP has many applications and applications and applications to reduce costs. A good algorithm has been developed to adjust the TP in the context of all given parameters, namely the supply, demand and TC team one, well. However, in real applications, there are many different situations due to uncertainty. It is therefore important to study PT in an uncertain environment. In this paper, an updated procedure is proposed to fix FTP where all parameters represents the non-triangular FN. The first is to use a non-trivial assembly to convert FTP to an LP with FC and net resistance. The second is to use a new vending system to turn the problem-solving lab into a three-wire lab. The value of a well-updated system is assessed compared to existing systems from an application model. The results obtained show that the updated method proposed in this study is simpler and more efficient than some existing methods commonly used in literature.

description: We analyzed here the connection of superflares and the lithium abundance in G and K stars based on Li abundance determinations conducted with the echelle spectra of a full set of 280 stars obtained with the ELODIE spectrograph. For high-active stars we show a definite correlation between $\log A(Li)$ and the chromosphere activity. We show that sets of stars with high Li abundance and having superflares possess common properties. It relates, firstly, to stars with activity saturation. We consider the X-ray data for G, K, and M stars separately, and show that transition from a saturation mode to solar-type activity takes place at values of rotation periods 1.1, 3.3, and 7.2 days for G2, K4 and M3 spectral types, respectively. We discuss bimodal distribution of a number of G and K main-sequence stars versus an axial rotation and location of superflare stars with respect to other Kepler stars. We conclude that superflare G and K stars are mainly fast rotating young objects, but some of them belong to stars with solar-type activity. At the same time, we found a group of G stars with high Li content $(\log A(Li) = 1.5 - 3)$, but being slower rotators with rotation periods > 10 days, which are characterized by low chromospheric activity. This agrees with a large spread in Li abundances in superflare stars. A mechanism leading to this effect is discussed.

description: AimsIt is unclear whether the future risk of cardiovascular events in breast cancer (BC) survivors is greater than in the general population. This meta-analysis quantifies the risk of cardiovascular disease development in BC patients, compared to the risk in a general matched cancer-free population, and reports the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with BC.Methods and resultsWe searched PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases (up to 23 March 2022) for observational studies and post hoc analyses of randomized controlled trials. Cardiovascular death, heart failure (HF), atrial fibrillation (AF), coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke were the individual endpoints for our meta-analysis. We pooled incidence rates (IRs) and risk in hazard ratios (HRs), using random-effects meta-analyses. Heterogeneity was reported through the I2 statistic, and publication bias was examined using funnel plots and Egger’s test in the meta-analysis of risk. One hundred and forty-two studies were identified in total, 26 (836 301 patients) relevant to the relative risk and 116 (2 111 882 patients) relevant to IRs. Compared to matched cancer-free controls, BC patients had higher risk for cardiovascular death within 5 years of cancer diagnosis [HR = 1.09; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07, 1.11], HF within 10 years (HR = 1.21; 95% CI: 1.1, 1.33), and AF within 3 years (HR = 1.13; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.21). The pooled IR for cardiovascular death was 1.73 (95% CI 1.18, 2.53), 4.44 (95% CI 3.33, 5.92) for HF, 4.29 (95% CI 3.09, 5.94) for CAD, 1.98 (95% CI 1.24, 3.16) for MI, 4.33 (95% CI 2.97, 6.30) for stroke of any type, and 2.64 (95% CI 2.97, 6.30) for ischaemic stroke.ConclusionBreast cancer exposure was associated with the increased risk for cardiovascular death, HF, and AF. The pooled incidence for cardiovascular endpoints varied depending on population characteristics and endpoint studied.RegistrationCRD42022298741.

description: With a Bayesian framework, the current study intends to fit the Type II generalized Topp–Leone-G (TIIGTL-G) model as an accelerated failure time (AFT) model to censored survival data. In this paper, we have obtained and analysed three AFT models using Type II Generalized Topp-Leone (TIIGTL) distribution as generator and considering Weibull, Exponential, and Log-Logistic as a baseline distribution. The fitting of these models to the censored survival data is done with the help of R and STAN. A comparison of these two models is conducted, and the best model is chosen using the Bayesian model evaluation criteria LOOIC and WAIC.

Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The technique and use of melisma is an under researched area in contemporary vocal studies. Melisma refers to the singing of several notes on one syllable and is a popular vocal technique or device used in a variety of genres. This thesis explores the way melisma may be communicated in Contemporary Popular Music (CPM). This includes the types and contexts of melisma. The thesis is divided into two stages of data collection and analysis. The first stage analyses stylistically different songs from two popular artists, Jessica Mauboy and Justin Timberlake. The purpose of this analysis was to explore the way melisma may be used by CPM artists and to determine whether the use of melisma is influenced by stylistic changes, vocal ability and/or song context. The analyses included a comparison of studio recordings and live recordings from various media platforms. The second stage comprised of semi - structured interviews that were conducted in order to identify the attitudes, views, and understandings of professional singers who engage with melisma in their performance practice. The thesis concludes with a discussion of emergent themes derived from the findings.

description: We compute the topological susceptibility of the SU(N) Yang-Mills theory in the large-N limit with a percent level accuracy. This is achieved by measuring the gradient-flow definition of the susceptibility at three values of the lattice spacing for N=3,4,5,6. Thanks to this coverage of parameter space, we can extrapolate the results to the large-N and continuum limits with confidence. Open boundary conditions are instrumental to make simulations feasible on the finer lattices at the larger N.

description: In this article, two sided Bayesian interval is proposed for the parameters of Poisson type Rayleigh class software reliability growth model. In this work, the failure intensity function, mean time to failure function and likelihood function of this model have been derived by considering parameter total number of failures i.e. 𝛾0 and scale parameter 𝛾1. The mathematical expressions of Bayesian interval for the parameters have been obtained by considering non informative priors. The performance of proposed Bayesian interval is studied on the basis of average length and coverage probability. Average length and coverage probability is obtained by using Monte Carlo simulation technique after generating 1000 random samples. From the obtained results, it is concluded that Bayesian interval of parameters perform better for appropriate choice of execution time and certain values of parameters.

description: We review basic design principles underpinning the construction of mimetic finite difference and a few finite volume and finite element schemes for mixed formulations of elliptic problems. For a class of low-order mixed-hybrid schemes, we show connections between these principles and prove that the consistency and stability conditions must lead to a member of the mimetic family of schemes regardless of the selected discretization framework. Finally, we give two examples of using flexibility of the mimetic framework: derivation of higher-order schemes and convergent schemes for nonlinear problems with small diffusion coefficients.

Censoring and reliability inferences for power Lindley distribution with application on hematologic malignancies data

Subjects: Power Lindley model

Maximum likelihood method
Stress-strength reliability

description: In this paper, by using progressively type II censored samples, we discuss on estimation of the parameters of a power Lindley model. Maximum likelihood estimates (MLE) and approximate confidence intervals of the unknown parameters are obtained. Then, considering squared error loss function, the Bayes estimates of the parameters are derived. Because there are not closed forms for the Bayes estimates, we use Tierney and Kadane’s technique, to calculate the approximate Bayes estimates. Further, the results are extended to the stress-strength reliability parameter involving two power Lindley distributions. The ML estimate of the stress-strength parameter and its approximate confidence interval are obtained. Then, the Bayes estimates and highest posterior density credible interval of the involved parameter are obtained by using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. To evaluate the performances of maximum likelihood and Bayes estimators simulation studies are conducted and two examples of real data sets are provided to illustrate the procedures.
Supercurrents in chiral channels originate from upstream information transfer: a theoretical prediction

description: It has been thought that the long chiral edge channels cannot support any supercurrent between the superconducting electrodes. We show theoretically that the supercurrent can be mediated by a non-local interaction that facilitates a long-distance information transfer in the direction opposite to electron flow. We compute the supercurrent for several interaction models, including that of an external circuit.

description: In this present piece of work, we have considered a lifetime distribution based on trigonometric function called SSE(ϵ)-distribution and discuss its various properties which have not been added previously by host as well as any other authors. This distribution is useful and a good contribution in research under trigonometric function. We are deriving some more useful properties such as moments, conditional moments, mean deviation about mean, mean deviation about median, order statistics etc. Estimation of parameter has been done for both classical and Bayesian paradigms under Type-II censored sample. Simulation study has also been carried out to know the progress of the estimators in the sense of having smallest risk (over the sample space) at the long-run use.

Comparison of Bridge Systems with Multiple Types of Components

Publisher: name: Reliability: Theory & Applications
Year: 2022
Subjects: survival signature
bridge system
survival function
distortion function

description: This paper aims to compare some bridge systems with multiple types of components in stochastic, hazard rate, and likelihood ratio order. Such systems are generally used in the designing and production industries. These systems are supported by a buffer store that balances the fluctuation in two production lines during the production process. The survival signature tool and distortion function technique are employed to compare the performance of four different bridge systems. Survival signature and henceforth survival function is computed for each considered system. The findings of comparisons are facilitated with the help of tables and figures. The comparison of large size coherent systems based on the structure-function approach is quite challenging. As this study is based on survival signature, so it is not so complex and has future scope.

description: We present new deep UBVRI images and high-resolution multi-object optical spectroscopy of the young (~ 6 - 10 Myr old), relatively nearby (800 pc) open cluster IC 2395. We identify nearly 300 cluster members and use the photometry to estimate their spectral types, which extend from early B to middle M. We also present an infrared imaging survey of the central region using the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, covering the wavelength range from 3.6 to 24 microns. Our infrared observations allow us to detect dust in circumstellar disks originating over a typical range of radii ~ 0.1 to ~ 10AU from the central star. We identify 18 Class II, 8 transitional disk, and 23 debris disk candidates, respectively 6.5%, 2.9%, and 8.3% of the cluster members with appropriate data. We apply the same criteria for transitional disk identification to 19 other stellar clusters and associations spanning ages from ~ 1 to ~ 18 Myr. We find that the number of disks in the transitional phase as a fraction of the total with strong 24 micron excesses ([8] - [24] > 1.5) increases from 8.4 +\- 1.3% at ~ 3 Myr to 46 +\- 5% at ~ 10 Myr. Alternative definitions of transitional disks will yield different percentages but should show the same trend.

description: In this article, classical and Bayes interval estimation procedures have been discussed for the reliability characteristics, namely mean time to system failure, reliability function, and hazard function for the power Lindley model and its special case. In the classical part, maximum likelihood estimation, maximum product spacing estimation are discussed to estimate the reliability characteristics. Since the computation of the exact confidence intervals for the reliability characteristics is not directly possible, then, using the large sample theory, the asymptotic confidence interval is constructed using the above-mentioned classical estimation methods. Further, the bootstrap (standard-boot, percentile-boot, students t-boot) confidence intervals are also obtained. Next, Bayes estimators are derived with a gamma prior using squared error loss function and linex loss function. The Bayes credible intervals for the same characteristics are constructed using simulated posterior samples. The obtained estimators are evaluated by the Monte Carlo simulation study in terms of mean square error, average width, and coverage probabilities. A real-life example has also been illustrated for the application purpose.

Comparison of FM / FD/1 Queuing Performance Using Fuzzy Queuing Model and Intuitionistic Fuzzy Queuing Model with Infinite capacity

description: Under assorted fuzzy numbers, we portray an FM/FD/1 queuing model with an unrestrained limit. The foremost target of this paper is to compare the efficacy of an FM/FD/1 queuing model based on fuzzy queuing theory and intuitionistic fuzzy queuing theory. Birth (arrival) and death (service) rates are thought to be triangular and triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. The fuzzy consequence of unpredictability modeling is a fuzzy random variable because arbitrary events can only be recognized in an undefined manner. As a consequence, it is essential to interpret the direct correlation between volatility and vagueness. The lining miniature's prosecution dimensions are fuzzified and then examined using arithmetic and logical operations. The evaluation metrics for the fuzzy queuing theory model are furnished as a range of outcomes, meanwhile, the intuitionistic fuzzy queuing theory model has plenty of virtues. An approach is conducted to ascertain quality measures using a methodological approach in which fuzzy values are preserved without being incorporated into crisp values, allowing us to draw scientific conclusions in an uncertain environment. The arithmetical precepts are defined in dealing with various fuzzy numbers to test the model's technical feasibility. A comparison illustration is constituted for each fuzzy number.
