description: An equation based reduced order model applicable to generalized heat equation and thermal simulations of power electronics systems developed in commercial CFD tools, is presented in this work. The model considers the physics of heat transfer between multiple objects in different mediums and presents a set of equations that can be applied to a wide range of heat transfer scenarios including conduction, natural and forced convection problems. A few case studies including heat transfer in a power electronic system are simulated in Ansys Icepak and the temperatures from the simulations are compared with the temperatures predicted by the models. The models are observed to be highly accurate when compared with the simulations. The predictive model described in this work reduces large complex simulations down to a few parameters which tremendously improves the computation speed, uses very low physical disk space and enables fast evaluation of thermal performance of the system for any changes in the input parameters.

description: A acessibilidade na evacuação de indústrias alimentícias durante incêndios é um tema pouco explorado, apesar de sua relevância diante do capacitismo e dos desafios enfrentados por pessoas com deficiência. Este estudo teórico reuniu dados de publicações científicas, legislações e normas nacionais (Brasil) e internacionais para investigar essas dificuldades e propor melhorias aplicáveis ao setor alimentício. As principais barreiras identificadas incluem falta de formação em segurança, infraestrutura inadequada e sinalização limitada, além de ausência de suporte para evacuação eficiente. Embora o Brasil possua legislações como a Lei nº 13.146/2015 e a Lei nº 13.425/2017, lacunas normativas ainda comprometem a acessibilidade total. Entre as propostas destacam-se: alarmes com som direcional, sinalização acessível (tátil, sonora e visual), áreas de refúgio, iluminação adequada e aplicativos móveis para emergências. As recomendações baseiam-se em normas como a NBR 5413 (1992) e o Manual de Iluminação da Eletrobrás. O estudo conclui que há tecnologias disponíveis para melhorar a segurança e a evacuação de pessoas com deficiência, mas ressalta a necessidade de maior divulgação, incentivo à aplicação prática e aprofundamento de pesquisas científicas sobre o tema.

description: Ab initio QED calculations of the nuclear magnetic shielding constant in helium-like ions are presented. We combine the nonrelativistic QED approach based on an expansion in powers of the fine-structure constant $α$ and the so-called ``all-order'' QED approach which includes all orders in the parameter $Zα$ but uses a perturbation expansion in the parameter $1/Z$ (where $Z$ is the nuclear charge number). The combination of the two complementary methods makes our treatment applicable both to low-$Z$ and high-$Z$ ions. Our calculations confirm the presence of a rare antiscreening effect for the relativistic shielding correction and demonstrate the importance of the inclusion of the negative-energy part of the Dirac spectrum.

description: Defects in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a two-dimensional van der Waals material, have raised wide range interest for its potential in various quantum applications. Due to hBN's 2D nature, spin center in hBN can be engineered in close proximity to target material, providing advantages over their 3D counterparts, such as nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond. Here we propose a novel quantum sensing protocol driven by exchange interaction between spin center in hBN and the underlying magnetic substrate induced by magnetic proximity effect. By first-principle calculation, we demonstrate the induced exchange interaction dominates over dipole-dipole interaction by orders of magnitude when in proximity. The interaction remains antiferromagnetic across all stacking configuration between the spin center in hBN and the target van der Waals magnets. Additionally, we explored the scaling behavior of the exchange field as a function of the spatial separation between the spin center and the targets.

description: Tetrahedral configurations of spacecraft on unperturbed heliocentric orbits allow for highly precise observations of small spatial changes in the gravitational field, especially those affecting the gravity gradient tensor (GGT). The resulting high sensitivity may be used to search for new physics that could manifest itself via deviations from general relativistic behavior yielding a non-vanishing trace[GGT]. We study the feasibility of recovering the trace[GGT] with the sensitivity of O(1e-24 s^(-2)) -- the level where some of the recently proposed cosmological models may have observable effects in the solar system. We consider how local measurements provided by precision laser ranging and atom-wave interferometry can be used for that purpose. We report on a preliminary study of such an experiment and precision that may be reached in measuring the trace[GGT], with the assumption of drag-compensated spacecraft by atom interferometer measurements. For that, we study the dynamical behavior of a tetrahedral formation established by four spacecraft on heliocentric nearby elliptical orbits. We formulate the observational equations to measure the trace[GGT] relying only on the observables available within the formation: laser ranging and the Sagnac interferometry. We demonstrate that Sagnac observable is a mission enabling and allows to measure the angular frequency of the tetrahedral rotation with respect to an inertial reference frame with an accuracy much higher than that available from any other modern navigational techniques. We show that the quality of the science measurements is affected by the changes in tetrahedron's orientation and shape as spacecraft follow their orbits. We present the preliminary mission and instrument requirements needed to measure the trace[GGT] to the required accuracy and demonstrate the feasibility of satisfying the science objectives.

description: The dairy industry has been revolutionized with the advent of membrane technology. The key applications of membrane technology in milk processing includes standardization, concentration, fractionation and purification of milk components, tailoring new products and also extending the shelf life of products. It causes low environmental pollution, low energy consumption, less use of additives and avoids thermal damage to the products. The major limitation of membrane technology involves membrane fouling/blocking, however, introduction of superior membranes for the processing has helped in overcoming the challenge to a greater extent.

description: A strong global magnetic field of young low-mass stars and a high accretion rate are the necessary conditions for the formation of collimated outflows (jets) from these objects. But it is still unclear whether these conditions are also sufficient. We aim to check whether BP Tau, an actively accreting young star with a strong magnetic field, has a jet. We carried out narrowband SII 672 nm imaging and spectroscopic observations of BP Tau and its vicinity. We find that BP Tau is a source of a Herbig-Haro flow (assigned number HH 1181), which includes two HH objects moving from the star in opposite directions and a micro- (counter-) jet of ~ 1" projected length. The flow is oriented along position angle $59 \pm 1$ degree.

Bargaining in the shadow of the law? : the case of family mediation
Creators: name: Batagol, Becky Melissa
Publisher: name: Monash University

subject: Family law

description: Almost all family law disputes in Australia are resolved without recourse to judicial determination. Separated families are increasingly directed towards alternative dispute resolution processes to negotiate their own agreements while the state progressively withdraws from resolution of individual family disputes. Family mediation (now named family dispute resolution) is one of the key dispute resolution mechanisms promoted in
Australia, having been compulsory since July 2007. Because settlements in such informal processes are made privately and with minimal outside scrutiny, very little is known about the basis for decision-making in most of these cases. It is unclear to what extent parties in mediation (or any other private dispute resolution process) rely on legal principles.  The aim of the research is to examine the role (if any) which the law plays within
negotiations at family mediation in a) Influencing couples’ decisions to mediate their disputes; b) In the process of mediation; and c) In any agreements that result from
mediation.  The question of the interrelationship between law and family mediation is important because it helps us to understand whether and how law provides protection from exploitation, or a safety net, for parties using state-sanctioned family dispute resolution processes. This question is also important because it helps us to understand how effective family law reform really is.
This thesis uses Mnookin and Komhauser’s concept of the ‘shadow of the law’ to provide a framework for a discussion of the relationship between law and family mediation.
These questions are explored through qualitative empirical research, utilising multiple case studies. The data for the project was collected through interviews, observation and
file analysis at three federally-funded community-based mediation services in Melbourne and Sydney in 2001-02, involving twenty-two case studies.

description: Polarized radio emission of RRAT J1854+0306 is investigated with single pulses using Five-hundred-meter-Aperture Spherical Telescope. Its emission is characterized by nulls, narrow and weak pulses, and occasional wide and intense bursts with a nulling fraction of 53.2%. Its burst emission is typically of one rotation, and occasionally of two or three or even five rotations at the most, but without significant periodicity. The integrated pulse profile has an 'S'-shaped position angle curve that is superposed with orthogonal modes, from which geometry parameters are obtained. Individual pulses exhibit diverse profile morphology with single, double, or multiple peaks. The intensity and width of these pulses are highly correlated, and bright pulses generally have wide profiles with multiple peaks. These nulling behaviours, profile morphology, and polarization demonstrate that a rotating radio transient has the same physical origins as the normal pulsars.

description: Milk is most vulnerable to adulteration among all the food products and can cause serious health issues in consumers. Milk adulteration has always been a matter of apprehension for the government and dairy industries particularly in the developing countries including India. Adulterated milk circulation and its consumption poses a bigger threat to regulators, consumers, and to the milk industry posing serious health hazards leading to fatal diseases. Despite all efforts to combat the constant state of vitriolic froth, the vicious circle goes on affecting the health of masses and also the authenticity of milk and its products. There are numerous detection methods and techniques available globally which are in practice to analyze and differentiate adulterated milk. A number of them are rapid, accurate and easy. However, most of them are complex, expensive, and lab-based techniques that limit their application.

Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery: Incidence and Predictors in a New Zealand Cohort
Creators: name: Keepa, Jenna
Publisher: name: The University of Auckland
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 320101
subject: Cardiology (incl. cardiovascular diseases)

description: Background: New-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is common after cardiac surgery and is associated with short- and long-term adverse outcomes, including stroke and mortality. Little is known about postoperative AF in the New Zealand (NZ) population, including how incidence compares internationally, whether there are ethnic differences in incidence, and what factors place patients at highest risk. Methods: A systematic search of literature was conducted in five databases to locate studies reporting the incidence and independent predictors of new AF after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or valve surgery. Incidence was calculated using meta-analysis methods. Vote counting methods identified preoperative and surgical variables that are most commonly associated with the development of AF. Identified predictors were used in a secondary analysis of registry data, involving 1630 adults after CABG and/or valve surgery at Auckland City Hospital with no history of AF. Incidence of AF was examined both by surgery type and by ethnic subgroup. Logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors. Results: Analysis of 37 international studies identified that postoperative AF occurs in almost one in three patients but varies by type of procedure. Risk factors for postoperative AF are inconsistent, except for advanced age and valve surgery. In a NZ hospital, the incidence of AF was 29%, with the lowest incidence after isolated CABG (22%), and highest after combined CABG+valve surgery (42%). Māori, followed by Pākehā had the highest incidence of AF, and Māori and Pasifika with AF were 10-years younger compared to Pākehā. Independent predictors of AF were age, higher body mass index, history of congestive heart failure, and valve procedures. However, these factors were modestly predictive at best. Conclusion: Postoperative AF occurs in a NZ population at comparable rates to international settings. Risk stratification using routinely measured factors is unlikely to inform AF prevention due to limited accuracy, but the risk factors identified improve our understanding of which patients are most affected in a NZ setting and who may benefit from strategies to reduce the burden on patients and communities.

description: Transportation mode recognition (TMR) is a critical component of human activity recognition (HAR) that focuses on understanding and identifying how people move within transportation systems. It is commonly based on leveraging inertial, location, or both types of signals, captured by modern smartphone devices. Each type has benefits (such as increased effectiveness) and drawbacks (such as increased battery consumption) depending on the transportation mode (TM). Combining the two types is challenging as they exhibit significant differences such as very different sampling rates. This paper focuses on the TMR task and proposes an approach for combining the two types of signals in an effective and robust classifier. Our network includes two sub-networks for processing acceleration and location signals separately, using different window sizes for each signal. The two sub-networks are designed to also embed the two types of signals into the same space so that we can then apply an attention-based multiple-instance learning classifier to recognize TM. We use very low sampling rates for both signal types to reduce battery consumption. We evaluate the proposed methodology on a publicly available dataset and compare against other well known algorithms.

The supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy

description: Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Galaxy, is variable in radio, sub-millimeter, millimeter, near-IR and X-rays. The flare activity is thought to arise from the innermost regions of the accretion flow, within ten gravitational radii of the black hole. General relativistic effects play therefore a substantial role in determining the flaring properties of Sgr A*. Our goal is to study the processes responsible for the variable emission from Sgr A*, and to analyse the relativistic signatures in the emission and ultimately test General Relativity by constraining the parameters of the black hole. We model the variable emission from a compact source within the accretion disk, orbiting in the equatorial plane close to the event horizon, near the marginally stable orbit of a black hole. Based on our developed scenario, we estimate the black hole spin. We take into account all special and general relativistic effects, and search for relativistic signatures in the resulting light curves and find that they may play a significant role in Sgr A* variability. Motivated by the apparent periodicity in some Sgr A* light curves, and the clear substructure, suggestive of lensing and Doppler beaming effects, together with the presence of time lags at radio wavelengths, we develop a general relativistic time-dependent model that aims to understand the variable emission and the black hole properties. The model incorporates a bubble of synchrotron-emitting electrons orbiting close to the black hole and cooling via synchrotron emission and adiabatic expansion. The model reproduces the observed time delays at radio wavelengths, the shape and structure of the flares, the periodic orbital dynamics and confirms the presence of variability at sub-orbital scales due to lensing and Doppler beaming. We obtain good matches with the observed light curves in NIR/X-Ray and radio. Further analysis of Sgr A* variability at orbital timescales will allow us to test General Relativity and the validity of the Kerr metric.
