description: Umbral moonshine describes an unexpected relation between 23 finite groups arising from lattice symmetries and special mock modular forms. It includes the Mathieu moonshine as a special case and can itself be viewed as an example of the more general moonshine phenomenon which connects finite groups and distinguished modular objects. In this paper we introduce the notion of generalised umbral moonshine, which includes the generalised Mathieu moonshine [Gaberdiel M.R., Persson D., Ronellenfitsch H., Volpato R., Commun. Number Theory Phys. 7 (2013), 145-223] as a special case, and provide supporting data for it. A central role is played by the deformed Drinfel'd (or quantum) double of each umbral finite group $G$, specified by a cohomology class in $H^3(G,U(1))$. We conjecture that in each of the 23 cases there exists a rule to assign an infinite-dimensional module for the deformed Drinfel'd double of the umbral finite group underlying the mock modular forms of umbral moonshine and generalised umbral moonshine. We also discuss the possible origin of the generalised umbral moonshine.
Respiratory Health in a Changing World: The Role of Pollen and its Interaction with Greenspace on Childhood Lung Function
Creators: name: Lambert, Katrina Anne
Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2023

description: Submission note: A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the School of Psychology and Public Health, College of Science, Health and Engineering, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

We live in a world with rapidly increasing urbanisation and changes to global climate impacting pollen production and allergenicity. Pollen exposure plays a role in emergency department presentations and hospitalisations for asthma, but there is little exploration of its effect on lung function and airway inflammation. This thesis by publication explores the long term and acute associations of pollen with lung function and airway inflammation, and potentially interactive effects of residential greenness. Two systematic reviews explore the effect of greenspace on allergic diseases. Three original research articles use daily ambient pollen concentrations, measured in four regions of Australia and Germany, and residential greenness calculated by NDVI. Lung function was measured by spirometry in four cohorts and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) was available from three cohorts. Exposure to grass pollen in early life was consistently associated with decreased lung function in children and adolescents. Reductions were stronger for forced vital capacity (FVC), than forced expiratory volume (FEV1) while the ratio was unchanged or even increased. This restrictive pattern suggests a potential global reduction in lung function. In the German cohorts, higher levels of ambient birch pollen between five to seven days before testing were associated with reduced FEV1 in those children sensitised to birch pollen, with weaker associations for FVC. Acute grass pollen exposure was associated with increased FeNO levels in all children and living in an area with higher NDVI significantly enhanced this association. In Sydney, Casuarina and Pinus pollen were associated with reduced lung function. While further studies are required to determine the mechanisms behind these associations, grass pollen avoidance strategies for infants may be of benefit. Pollen-sensitised individuals and those with asthma should be made aware of available pollen forecasts and the possible influence of pollen exposure on the respiratory system up to a week after exposure.

Finalidad pura, intemporal y metahistórica; es decir que carecen de origen. En efecto, según Foucault, La genealogía no se opone a la historia como la visión de águila y profunda de filósofo en relación a la mirada escrutadora del sabio; se opone por contrario al despliegue metahistórico de las significaciones ideales y de los indefinidos teleológicos.

description: The Whittaker-Shannon-Kotel'nikov (WSK) sampling theorem provides a reconstruction formula for the bandlimited signals. In this paper, a novel kind of the WSK sampling theorem is established by using the theory of quaternion reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. This generalization is employed to obtain the novel sampling formulas for the bandlimited quaternion-valued signals. A special case of our result is to show that the 2D generalized prolate spheroidal wave signals obtained by Slepian can be used to achieve a sampling series of cube-bandlimited signals. The solutions of energy concentration problems in quaternion Fourier transform are also investigated.

description: Este proyecto tuvo como objetivo principal, evaluar la eficiencia del extracto de pulpa de aguacate como potencial inhibidor de corrosión del acero al carbono y aluminio, expuestos a un medio ácido (HCl 1M y 0.5 M). Para tal fin, se llevó a cabo un estudio de pérdida de peso, para determinar la velocidad de corrosión en presencia y ausencia del extracto de aguacate. En esta misma prueba, se comparó el desempeño del aguacate, con el del extracto de tabaco, utilizado a nivel industrial como inhibidor de corrosión. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron que, el extracto de aguacate, alcanzó mejores eficiencias de inhibición que el tabaco y además, obtuvo mayores porcentajes de inhibición para el acero al carbono (hasta un 98.1%) que para el aluminio. Al mismo tiempo, se realizaron pruebas fitoquímicas para determinar la composición química del extracto de aguacate y tabaco. El análisis mostró que, ambos extractos tienen altas cantidades de Taninos en su composición, siendo el extracto de aguacate el poseedor de la mayor cantidad de estos compuestos (2.01 mg/L). La presencia de taninos, se relacionó con el potencial de inhibición, ya que estos compuestos forman complejos, que se adsorben sobre la superficie metálica, dificultando la reacción de corrosión También, se realizaron pruebas de polarización electroquímica o curvas de Tafel, para determinar los parámetros electroquímicos de la reacción de corrosión en presencia del extracto de aguacate. Se demostró que la adición de este extracto, disminuyó la corriente de corrosión para ambos metales y así mismo, la velocidad de corrosión. Los mayores porcentajes de inhibición obtenidos fueron para el acero al carbono, 98.06%. Los resultados de esta investigación, permiten establecer que el extracto de aguacate posee un alto potencial como inhibidor de corrosión para el acero al carbono y un desempeño no tan destacable para el aluminio, bajo las condiciones de prueba y podría ser utilizado, en la industria de la prevención y control de la corrosión

description: The major challenges in magnetic hyperthermia treatment (MHT) are the low heat generation of magnetic nanoparticles for cancer therapy and the avoidance of overheating via the temperature self-control characteristic at the ideal therapeutic range. Hence the aims of this PhD thesis are to develop a new magnetic implant material with high heat generation and temperature self-control capability, and to study their potential for safe MHT applications. In order to develop a ceramic magnetic implant, a series of highly crystalline Mg-ferrites nanoparticles were successfully prepared by an improved co-precipitation method. The structure and the magnetic properties of these nanoparticles were characterised and the results showed that the maximum SAR value is obtained for 10 ± 0.5 nm particles. The 10 ± 0.5 nm MgFe2O4 nanoparticles show higher heat generation and faster temperature rise in comparison to the Fe3O4 commercial suspension which demonstrates the potential of these nanoparticles for MHT. However, it was found that the maximum temperature rise and the overheating of MgFe2O4 nanoparticles need to be controlled through adjusting the amplitude of the external magnetic field, thus providing the motivation for preparation of magnetic nanoparticles with self-controlled heating capability. In order to induce the self-controlled heating ability, (Mg,Ti)-ferrite nanoparticles were attained by substituting Ti4+ ions into the Mg-ferrite. The magnetic properties of these nanoparticles were studied and it was found that the low saturation magnetization of these nanoparticles made undesirable their application as implants for effective MHT. In order to achieve an safe an effective hyperthermia therapy hydrided La(Fe,Si)13 were then investigated. It was found that the compound could be used to prevent the overheating effect as well as to provide the giant heat generation at low effective magnetic field strength (H.f) for MHT in comparison to other magnetic suspensions studied in this research. Finally, to achieve hydrided La(Fe,Si)13 nanoparticles, hydrided La(Fe,Si)13 ribbons were milled using the surfactant-assisted ball milling method. This research provides significant new insights into magnetic implant materials with both high heat generation and temperature self-control capability for safe MHT applications. In particular, first order unmilled compounds with self-controlled heating capability and high heat generation ability under magnetic field strength of (H.f) hold great promise for use as highly effective magnetic materials for safe and effective MHT.

Toward EPC global chipless RFID tag design

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is a disruptive technology that has penetrated almost every facade of modern civilization. RFID is an automated identification system that uses radio frequency waves to transmit data between a tag and a reader. Penetration of RFID in low cost item level tagging is hindered due to the high price of tags. The high cost of chipped tags stalled many ambitious projects such as low cost and perishable item level tagging for retails, supply chain management, logistics, pharmaceuticals and luggage handling to just name a few. The tag can be made low cost removing the microchip in the tag. The aim is to make the chipless tag that costs sub cents and is compatible with the current Electronic Product Code (EPC) Global standard. A few research groups have been working in the domain of chipless RFID tags. The big challenge of chipless RFID tag development is to incorporate 64 data bits in a half the credit card size real estate. Recently reported chipless RFID tags can meet neither the bit nor the real estate requirement. The thesis has presented numerous microwave passive designs to develop compact chipless tags with high data capacity. The goal is to develop fully printable uniplanar chipless RFID tags that offer: (i) high spectral efficiency meaning maximum number of data bits possible in the ultra-wide band (UWB) frequency range from 3.1-10.6 GHz, (ii) high spatial efficiency meaning very compact design of multiple data encoding elements in prescribed surface area of the tag, and (iii) operational flexibility such as orientation insensitive tag design. To fulfil the thesis goal a set of high data capacity, spectrally efficient and compact chipless tags are designed. The designed chipless tags are: (i) polarization diversity (PD) based re-transmission type tag; (ii) dual-band modified complementary split ring resonator (MCSRR) based tag; (iii) single polarized radar cross section (RCS) based tag, (iv) dual polarized RCS based tag, (v) multi-dimensional data encoding (MDDE) based tag and (vi) polarization insensitive (PI) tag. To realize the aforementioned chipless tags, a number of compact resonant structures with different polarization attributes, such as single polarized, dual polarized and polarization insensitive, have been proposed. A chipless RFID tag reader is also developed to read the designed tags in a laboratory setting. Successful reading of the designed tags using the developed reader has been accomplished for both mono-static and bi-static tag reading arrangements. The developed chipless RFID system finds potential applications in authentications of Australian polymer banknote and secured documents, tagging of goods and consumables products, bus tickets, stamps, and pharmaceuticals.
Reconciling Large And Small-Scale Structure In Twin Higgs Models

description: We study extensions of the Twin Higgs model that solve the Hierarchy problem and simultaneously address problems of the large- and small-scale structures of the Universe. Besides naturally providing dark matter (DM) candidates as the lightest charged twin fermions, the twin sector contains a light photon and neutrinos, which can modify structure formation relative to the prediction from the $Λ$CDM paradigm. We focus on two scenarios. First, we study a Fraternal Twin Higgs model in which the spin-3/2 baryon $\hatΩ\sim(\hat{b}\hat{b}\hat{b})$ and the lepton twin tau $\hatτ$ contribute to the dominant and subcomponent dark matter densities. A non-decoupled scattering between the twin tau and twin neutrino arising from a gauged twin lepton number symmetry provides a drag force that damps the density inhomogeneity of a dark matter subcomponent. Next, we consider the possibility of having the twin hydrogen atom $\hat{H}$ as the dominant DM component. After recombination, a small fraction of the twin protons and leptons remains ionized during structure formation, and their scattering to twin neutrinos through a gauged U$(1)_{B-L}$ force provides the mechanism that damps the density inhomogeneity. Both scenarios realize the Partially Acoustic dark matter (PAcDM) scenario and explain the $σ_8$ discrepancy between the CMB and weak lensing results. Moreover, the self-scattering neutrino behaves as a dark fluid that enhances the size of the Hubble rate $H_0$ to accommodate the local measurement result while satisfying the CMB constraint. For the small-scale structure, the scattering of $\hatΩ$'s and $\hat{H}$'s through the twin photon exchange generates a self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) model that solves the mass deficit problem from dwarf galaxy to galaxy cluster scales.

Masculinity and the Negotiation of Domestic Violence in Melbourne’s South Sudanese-Australian Community

Year: 2023

description: Submission note: A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts to the Department of Social Inquiry, School of Humanities and Social Sciences (Crime, Justice and Legal Studies), College of Arts, Social Sciences and Commerce, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

The feminist conceptualisation of gender inequality has influenced many studies concerning violence that occurs between two intimate people. However, there has been little research focused on South Sudanese-Australians, especially men as victims, interveners, or perpetrators of domestic violence. South Sudanese-Australian families, in general, encounter challenges during their settlement period, and these can be worsened by the perpetration, victimisation and witnessing of domestic violence. South Sudanese-Australian men are caught between two cultures: Australian and South Sudanese. They are generally included in mainstream, culturally and linguistically diverse, or ‘African communities’ domestic violence studies without consideration of the diversity of African cultures, languages and practices in Australia. This thesis distinguishes this group by aiming to examine the relationship between masculinity and the perpetration of and response to domestic violence in the South Sudanese community in Greater Melbourne. It will explore their past traumatic experiences in a war and refugee camps, and their experiences of social inequalities in the host country Australia. It further investigates the suitability and accessibility of current prevention and perpetrator services, intervention programs, and the roles South Sudanese-Australian men play in negotiating their masculinities and involvement in matters of domestic violence within their community in Victoria. This thesis objective is to provide a clearer model of the challenges faced by South Sudanese-Australian men in their roles as victims, perpetrators and interveners in the field of domestic violence. The thesis adopted the use of gender-based theory and critical race theory while employing the use of qualitative research to collect semi-structured in-depth interviews with participants. What is compelling about this thesis is my subject position as a South Sudanese woman who seeks to provide more accurate information on the perceptions of the South Sudanese community on the problem of domestic violence in order to more effectively understand and respond to the issue.

description: Seabed geomorphology describes the shape and evolution of underwater landscapes. These landscapes interact with ocean currents to create diverse marine habitats. Similar to geological maps on land, maps of seabed geomorphology are vital for making informed decisions to support the sustainable growth of our Ocean Economy.
As we gather more detailed seabed data and face increasing ocean pressures, there's a need for new, standardised maps that support consistent decision making at multiple scales and between administrative jurisdictions. Dr Rachel Nanson and an international team have developed a new seabed geomorphology classification system that is designed to simplify complex seabed interpretations into a map format that is accessible to a broad range of end users.
This approach is being adopted internationally and is currently being implemented by Geoscience Australia. We are using the method to map parts of Australia’s extensive Marine Park network and to support government to make informed decisions regarding Australia’s rapidly expanding Offshore Renewable Energy sector
Spatial OFDM for pixelated MIMO optical wireless communication systems

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Recently, the demand for high speed wireless multimedia services has grown to an unprecedented level. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) optical wireless communication (OWC) can be an excellent supplemental technology to radio frequency (RF) links to achieve high transmission rates. MIMO OWC has the potential for many applications including secure data communications, mobile advertisements, data exchange in dense high-contention scenarios, and in intelligent transportation systems (ITS). One form of MIMO OWC is a pixelated imaging system which transmits information via a series of pixelated image frames. Such systems have the potential to provide high transmission rates by exploiting spatial diversity at a large scale. For pixelated OWC, a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen or a pixelated grid of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can be used as a transmitter, while a camera or an imaging lens along with an array of photodiodes can be used as a receiver. In order to be resilient to spatial distortions, pixelated systems can encode data using spatial orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (spatial OFDM) which is an extension of the concept of conventional OFDM to the 2-D spatial domain. Spatial DC biased optical OFDM (SDCO-OFDM) has been described in the literature for pixelated systems. Due to the attractive features mentioned above, spatial OFDM based pixelated systems can be promising candidates for next-generation OWC. However, the technology is still in its infancy and faces a number of challenges including power constraints, linear misalignment error, defocus blur and illumination fall-off known as vignetting. In this research, a novel modulation technique termed spatial asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM (SACO-OFDM) is presented for pixelated OWC. Misalignment, defocus, and vignetting are then modelled and their effects on spatial OFDM are analysed. Different signal processing techniques are applied to reduce the effects of these impairments. The joint impact of misalignment, defocus and vignetting on SACO-OFDM and SDCO-OFDM are then presented analytically and through simulations. The optimum choice of DC bias for SDCO-OFDM for a pixelated system is also presented. For the cases considered and for a given data rate, the proposed SACO-OFDM is shown to be more optically power- efficient than the existing SDCO-OFDM.

description: We present a search for neutrinos in coincidence in time and direction with four fast radio bursts (FRBs) detected by the Parkes and Green Bank radio telescopes during the first year of operation of the complete IceCube Neutrino Observatory (May 2011 through May 2012). The neutrino sample consists of 138,322 muon neutrino candidate events, which are dominated by atmospheric neutrinos and muons but also contain an astrophysical neutrino component. Considering only neutrinos detected on the same day as each FRB, zero IceCube events were found to be compatible with the FRB directions within the estimated 99\% error radius of the neutrino directions. Based on the non-detection, we present the first upper limits on the neutrino fluence from fast radio bursts.

Synthesis and Characterization of Sulfonated Carbon Catalyst for Hydrolysis of Microcrystalline Cellulose
Creators: name: H/Mariam, Kefyalew
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: Microcrystalline cellulose can be converted into valuable products such as glucose via hydrolysis reaction at mild condition using sulfonated carbon catalyst. A sulfonated carbon material was prepared by carbonization of bamboo sawdust followed by sulfonation. Prepared catalyst was studied for its ability to catalyze microcrystalline cellulose yield via hydrolysis reaction. Three carbon-based catalysts at three different temperatures (400, 450 and 500℃) were prepared. Investigations on the sulfonated carbon catalyst were conducted to determine the effect of reaction time (4, 6 and 8 hr), reaction temperature (120, 135 and 150℃) and catalyst to microcrystalline cellulose (1:1, 1.25:1 and 1.5:1) on the hydrolysis reaction. The sulfonated catalysts were characterized using the following analyses: elemental analysis, total acid density, FT-IR, TGA, SEM and XRD. Based on the above characterization results, sulfonated carbon prepared at 500℃ and sulfonated via ultra-sonication was found to have higher acid density that is suitable to catalyze the hydrolysis reaction. The first step in catalyst development approach was to increase the hydrolysis reaction by employing a stronger sulfonation procedure during catalyst preparation. The total acid density obtained for sulfonated carbon catalyst at 500℃ was 4.16 mmol/g which significantly increases glucose yield. According to the FTIR analysis the sulfonated biochar contained sulfonic, carboxylic, and phenolic groups, which are responsible for the exhibited high catalytic performance during hydrolysis of cellulose. The yield of glucose obtained was 60.5% at 149.0°C in 8hr reaction time. Keywords: Bamboo sawdust, Sulfonated biochar catalyst, microcrystalline cellulose, hydrolysis reaction.

description: It is well-known that additional constraints emerge in light cone coordinates. We enumerate the number of physical modes in light cone coordinates and compare it with conventional coordinates. We show that the number of Schrodinger modes is divided by two in light cone coordinates. We study the effect of this reduction in the number ladder operators acting on physical states of a system. We analyse the scaler, spinor and vector field theories carefully to see the effect of changes in the dynamical structure of these theories from the view point of the reduction of Schrodinger modes in light-cone coordinates.
The Impacts of a National Curriculum on Relationship and Sexuality Education: An Australian Story of Discourse, Practice, and Need

description: Submission note: This thesis is submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the School of Psychology and Public Health, College of Science, Health and Engineering, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

The 2015 release of the national policy Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education (AC:HPE) incorporates relationship and sexuality education (RSE). As a learning area that was subject to deep-seated values for or against it, school based RSE was often avoided despite its standing as an internationally recognised human right. Previous research has demonstrated effective RSE to be a catalyst for delaying the onset of sexual activity, increasing condom and contraceptive use, and improving sexual health outcomes. The aim of this research was to determine whether a national curriculum could positively impact the delivery and receipt of RSE by examining the aims of the AC:HPE in relation to RSE and its impacts on teachers’ delivery and students’ experiences. This research was divided into three components: (1) a text-based critical discourse analysis (CDA) of the AC:HPE; (2) the 2018 National Survey of Australian Teachers of Sexuality Education (n equals 239); and (3) the 5th and 6th National Surveys of Secondary Students and Sexual Health (2013 n equals 2,193; 2018 n equals 6,180). Findings reveal that: (1) the AC:HPE emphasises a teacher-facilitated approach to RSE, which is in line with recent shifts in education towards strengths-based learning that encourages students’ development of critical thinking skills; (2) teachers have not received sufficient preparation to deliver RSE material in line with the aims of the AC:HPE, and earlier training would increase their comfort delivering this material; and (3) students’ school-based RSE experiences remain unchanged since before the release of the AC:HPE, with their diverse needs continuing to not be fully met. Understanding the impacts of the AC:HPE on RSE delivery and receipt will help inform better teacher training, educational practices, and student experiences, and will help advance RSE policy developments that support both teacher and student needs.
Small-signal model for frequency analysis of thermoelectric systems

description: We show how small-signal analysis, a standard method in electrical engineering, may be applied to thermoelectric device performance measurement by extending a dc model to the dynamical regime. We thus provide a physical ground to \textit{ad-hoc} models used to interpret impedance spectroscopy of thermoelectric elements from an electrical circuit equivalent for thermoelectric systems in the frequency domain. We particularly stress the importance of the finite thermal impedance of the thermal contacts between the thermoelectric system and the thermal reservoirs in the derivation of such models. The expression for the characteristic angular frequency of the thermoelectric system we obtain is a generalization of the expressions derived in previous studies. In particular, it allows to envisage impedance spectroscopy measurements beyond the restrictive case of adiabatic boundary conditions often difficult to achieve experimentally, and hence \emph{in-situ} characterization of thermoelectric generators.

Bayesian Sparse Linear Regression with Unknown Symmetric Error

description: We study full Bayesian procedures for sparse linear regression when errors have a symmetric but otherwise unknown distribution. The unknown error distribution is endowed with a symmetrized Dirichlet process mixture of Gaussians. For the prior on regression coefficients, a mixture of point masses at zero and continuous distributions is considered. We study behavior of the posterior with diverging number of predictors. Conditions are provided for consistency in the mean Hellinger distance. The compatibility and restricted eigenvalue conditions yield the minimax convergence rate of the regression coefficients in $\ell_1$- and $\ell_2$-norms, respectively. The convergence rate is adaptive to both the unknown sparsity level and the unknown symmetric error density under compatibility conditions. In addition, strong model selection consistency and a semi-parametric Bernstein-von Mises theorem are proven under slightly stronger conditions.

The Likelihood Ratio Test and Full Bayesian Significance Test under small sample sizes for contingency tables

description: Hypothesis testing in contingency tables is usually based on asymptotic results, thereby restricting its proper use to large samples. To study these tests in small samples, we consider the likelihood ratio test and define an accurate index, the P-value, for the celebrated hypotheses of homogeneity, independence, and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The aim is to understand the use of the asymptotic results of the frequentist Likelihood Ratio Test and the Bayesian FBST -- Full Bayesian Significance Test -- under small-sample scenarios. The proposed exact P-value is used as a benchmark to understand the other indices. We perform analysis in different scenarios, considering different sample sizes and different table dimensions. The exact Fisher test for $2 \times 2$ tables that drastically reduces the sample space is also discussed. The main message of this paper is that all indices have very similar behavior, so the tests based on asymptotic results are very good to be used in any circumstance, even with small sample sizes.

description: Following the approach of our previous paper we continue to study the asymptotic solution of periodic Schrödinger operators. Using the eigenvalues obtained earlier the corresponding asymptotic wave functions are derived. This gives further evidence in favor of the monodromy relations for the Floquet exponent proposed in the previous paper. In particular, the large energy asymptotic wave functions are related to the instanton partition function of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory with surface operator. A relevant number theoretic dessert is appended.
