The monetary approach to the balance of payments : a case study of Sri Lanka
Creators: name: De Zoysa, A. Damitha N
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1986
Subjects: subject: Balance of payments Sri Lanka
subject: Demand for money Sri Lanka

description: This study examines the empirical validity of the monetary approach to the balance of pay men ts in Sri Lanka during the period 1958-1984. In most aspects it indicates that the monetary approach is most relevant for an analysis of recent developments in the Sri Lankan balance of payments. The central point of the monetary approach to the balance of pay men ts theory is that deficits or surpluses reflect stock disequilibrium between demand and supply in the market for money. The theory is based on the premise that there is a stable demand function for money in the economy. In addition the theory implicitly assumes that there are no structural changes in the economy, especially in the balance of payments. The empirical results show that, in general, the theory holds for the Sri Lankan economy. Further, it indicates that structural changes should be taken into consideration when t.sting the theory in Sri Lanka. With t his qualification t he theory has a great er relevance to the economy. This approach to studying Sri Lanka's balance of payments reflects two main arguments. First, it is a relatively small economy with very little control over prices in the world market. Second, monetary policies have been controlled and influenced by the Central Bank, which is responsible for influencing the external balances. Thus, Sri Lanka provides not only the conditions necessary for testing a monetary model of a small open economy, but also offers some interesting in sights into the theory and policy. This is the importance of structural changes (private remittances) which need Co be included as an explicit assumption in the model.

description: La Comunicación Interventricular, puede presentarse de variados tipos y en regiones diferentes del tabique por causas diversas como, por ejemplo, los defectos del Tabique Ventricular (tipo II, perimembranoso), debido a un flujo sanguíneo intracardiaco anormal. La medicina tradicional asiática considera los defectos congénitos como irregularidades del Jing ancestral y el adquirido en elembarazo temprano. Una alteración defectuosa de la embriogénesis de las ramas del meridiano principal del Riñón, pudiera ser la causa de defectos congénitos cardíacos,en correspondencia con la clasificación etiológica de Clark.
Objetivo: describir, en términos de entropía métrica, los desbalances bioenergéticos de los Zang Fu en los pacientes operados de CIV simple en etapa de rehabilitación postquirúrgica.
Método: de realizó una investigación prospectiva descriptiva, en el centro de rehabilitación del Cardiocentro Pediátrico “William Soler”, de 16 pacientes operados, portadores de CIV simple en rehabilitación ambulatoria.
Resultados: la aplicación del sistema automatizado de Acupuntura permitió, a través de los valores de la entropía métrica, detectar en los pacientes operados de CIV simple, un grupo de Zang-Fu entrópicos que, corresponden con la hipótesis de Li Ling y que podrían estar mostrar el panorama homeorréxico durante su rehabilitación postquirúrgica, lo cual permitiría precisar una selección de procederes de la medicina bioenergética y naturalista que optimicen su rehabilitación.
Conclusiones: en términos de entropía métrica, los desbalances bioenergéticos de los Zang Fu entrópicos en los pacientes operados de CIV simple, se pueden clasificar de acuerdo a la presencia de pares acoplados entrópicos, y da la medida del estado homeorréxico de estos pacientes en relación con su rehabilitación. Por lo que la entropía métrica puede ser un buen indicador a tomar en cuenta para seleccionar procederes de la MTA que complementen y optimicen el proceso de rehabilitación.

description: Band selection, by choosing a set of representative bands in hyperspectral image (HSI), is an effective method to reduce the redundant information without compromising the original contents. Recently, various unsupervised band selection methods have been proposed, but most of them are based on approximation algorithms which can only obtain suboptimal solutions toward a specific objective function. This paper focuses on clustering-based band selection, and proposes a new framework to solve the above dilemma, claiming the following contributions: 1) An optimal clustering framework (OCF), which can obtain the optimal clustering result for a particular form of objective function under a reasonable constraint. 2) A rank on clusters strategy (RCS), which provides an effective criterion to select bands on existing clustering structure. 3) An automatic method to determine the number of the required bands, which can better evaluate the distinctive information produced by certain number of bands. In experiments, the proposed algorithm is compared to some state-of-the-art competitors. According to the experimental results, the proposed algorithm is robust and significantly outperform the other methods on various data sets.

description: The mass power spectrum for a Universe dominated by the Chaplygin gas is evaluated numerically from scales of the order of the Hubble horizon to 100 Mpc. The results are compared with a pure baryonic Universe and a cosmological constant model. In all three cases, the spectrum increases with k, the wavenumber of the perturbations. The slope of the spectrum is higher for the baryonic model and smaller for the cosmological constant model, the Chaplygin gas interpolating these two models. The results are analyzed in terms of the sound velocity of the Chaplygin gas and the moment the Universe begins to accelerate.

Nawab Mohsin Ul-Mulk and Muslim awakening in the Indian sub-continent (1837-1907)
Creators: name: Syed, Iqbal Pervaize
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1986

description: The present work is an attempt to explore the role Mohsin ul-Mulk played in the awakening of the Muslims of India during the latter half of the nineteenth century and early twentieth century in the context of the Aligarh Movement. Though by profession a civil servant, Mohsin ul-Mulk, in association with Sir Syed,took deep interest in revitalizing the Muslims after the events of 1857. Like Sir Syed, he was convinced that the salvation of the Muslims lay only in the acquisition of modern education together with religious instruction and appropriate training. To give practical shape to these ideas, Aligarh College was conceived, which later played an important role in giving a new orientation to Muslims in socio-political fields. Mohsin Ul-Mulk rendered great services in making the College a success during the life and after the death of Sir Syed. After the latter's demise, it was solely as a result of Mohsin ul-Mulk's efforts that the College not only rescued itself from disintegration but emerged as a national institution for and of the Muslims. Mohsin ul-Mulk also widened the scope of Aligarh and guided its emergence as a Muslim Movement in India. Side by side with running the educational programme, Mohsin ul-Mulk led the Muslims in the political field. At a very early stage, he seemed to have discerned that there existed no place for the Muslims in Indian nationalism as it was emerging, and he opposed any amalgamation between the two. He stood for the launching of an independent political programme for the Muslims, which was ultimately realized in the shape of the Simla Deputation and afterwards the Muslim League in 1906.

description: Basis: The Interventricular Communication (IVC), can show up in various types and in different regions of the septum for various causes like, for example, ventricular septal defects (type II, perimembranous), due to abnormal intracardiac bloodstream. Traditional Asian Medicine regards as congenital defects irregularities of the ancestral Jing. A defective alteration of embryogenesis of the branches of the Kidneys main meridian, could be the cause of heart congenital defects, in correspondence with the Clarks etiological classification
Objective: It describes, in entropy metric terms, bioenergetics unbalances of the Zang Fu in patients undergoing simple IVC, in stage of postsurgical rehabilitation.
Method: A descriptive prospective investigation was carried out in the rehabilitation center of the Pediatric Cardiac-center William Soler of 16 operated patients, carriers of simple CIV in outpatient rehabilitation.
Results: The application of the automated Acupuncture system allowed, through the values ​​of metric entropy, to detect in patients operated on simple IVC, a group of Zang-Fu entropic that correspond to Li Lings hypothesis and that could be showing a homeorrexis landscape during your postoperative rehabilitation, which would make it possible to specify a selection of procedures of bioenergetics and naturalistic medicine that optimize your rehabilitation.
Conclusions: In terms of metric entropy, bioenergetics unbalances of the Zang Fu entropic may classify according to the presence of matched pairs, and gives a measure homeorrexis state of these patients, relating to its rehabilitation. So the metric entropy may be a good indicator for to have in account that consider selecting procedures of the Traditional Asian Medicine, that it’s complement and optimize the rehabilitative process in the patients operated of simple IVC.

description: This paper presents a wearable assistive device with the shape of a pair of eyeglasses that allows visually impaired people to navigate safely and quickly in unfamiliar environment, as well as perceive the complicated environment to automatically make decisions on the direction to move. The device uses a consumer Red, Green, Blue and Depth (RGB-D) camera and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to detect obstacles. As the device leverages the ground height continuity among adjacent image frames, it is able to segment the ground from obstacles accurately and rapidly. Based on the detected ground, the optimal walkable direction is computed and the user is then informed via converted beep sound. Moreover, by utilizing deep learning techniques, the device can semantically categorize the detected obstacles to improve the users' perception of surroundings. It combines a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) deployed on a smartphone with a depth-image-based object detection to decide what the object type is and where the object is located, and then notifies the user of such information via speech. We evaluated the device's performance with different experiments in which 20 visually impaired people were asked to wear the device and move in an office, and found that they were able to avoid obstacle collisions and find the way in complicated scenarios.

description: This thesis examines the changing pattern of production and trade specialisation in newly industrialising countries by undertaking a case study of the East Asian newly industrialising countries, and in particular of the Republic of Korea. It highlights the growing importance of intra-industry specialisation In production and trade in manufactures in East Asian newly industrialising countries as they move along the developm nt path towards the economic structu re of industrial countries. In a detailed analysis of the effect of variation in protection on the changing pattern of production and trade specialisation in the Republic of Korea, this thesis shows that a reduction in the variation of a country's levels of protection within its manufacturing industries will lead to an increase in the intra-industry trade in these industries. Moreover with the use of a general equilibrium model of the Korean economy, which takes into account the basic features of the industrial organisation' approach (entailing imperfect competition, economies of scale and product differentiation) it demonstrates how a reduction in the average levels of protection within a country's manufacturing industries will lead to an increase in the intra-industry specialisation in production and trade in these industries.
Quantized pumped charge due to surface acoustic waves in a 1D channel

description: The adiabatic pumped current through an unbiased one dimensional (1D) channel, connected to two 1D leads and subject to surface acoustic waves (SAW), is calculated exactly for non-interacting electrons. For a broad range of the parameters, quantum interference generates a staircase structure of the time-averaged current, similar to experimental observations. This corresponds to integer values (in units of electronic charge) of the charge pumped during each period of the SAW. We also find staircases for higher harmonics. Quantum interference can thus replace Coulomb blockade in explaining the pumped charge quantization, particularly in the SAW experiments.

description: Cardinalis phoeniceus Bonaparte
 Cardinalis phoeniceus (Gould MS) Bonaparte, 1838: 111 (received by Mr. Gould from the country south of the Bay of Honduras).
 Now Cardinalis phoeniceus Bonaparte, 1838. See Hartert, 1919: 155, Hellmayr, 1938: 74–75, and Dickinson, 2003: 823.
 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 515537, unsexed [male], collected in ‘‘the country south of the Bay of Honduras,’’ undated. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Hartert (1919: 155) claimed that this specimen was the type of Bonaparte’s name, based on a name written by Gould on the specimen in the collection of the Zoological Society of London but never published by Gould. There is no longer a label on the specimen indicating this, the earliest label being that of T.C. Eyton, who has written on his label that the specimen was from ‘‘Honduras’’ and came to him from the Zoological Society of London. He has also annotated it ‘‘or. of Bonaparte description.’’ On the reverse, Hartert has documented the history of the specimen: Coll. Zool. Soc., Mus. T.C. Eyton, Coll. E. Bartlett, and to the Rothschild Collection and added ‘‘This is type, NOT the one in B.M. (E.H.).’’ This was accepted by Warren and Harrison (1971: 434).
 Bonaparte named the genus Cardinalis at this time, and in the original description named two new species of the genus, both of which ‘‘come from Mexico.’’ The entire description of C. phoeniceus was as follows: ‘‘A small but most splendid species, received by Mr. Gould from the country south of the Bay of Honduras.’’ There is no indication that the specimen was ever in Gould’s private collection, but he certainly might have annotated a specimen in the Zoological Society of London collection while he was working there.
The reverse of Eyton’s label bears the number ‘‘3.a.’’ and there is a small circular tag bearing the number ‘‘1501’’; the significance of these numbers is unknown. The correct collecting locality was probably Venezuela (Hellmayr, 1938: 74). The specimen was formerly mounted.

Convection in a rotating cavity
Creators: name: Condie, Scott A
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988
Subjects: subject: Density currents
subject: Ocean currents
subject: Hydraulic models

description: Many large scale flows in the ocean are driven by an imposed longitudinal density gradient and the resulting buoyancy-driven flow is both influenced by the Earth's rotation and has a low aspect ratio (i.e. the characteristic vertical scale of the motion is small compared to the characteristic horizontal scale of the motion). The essential features of such flows were incorporated into a laboratory model, by differentially heating and cooling the vertical end walls of a low aspect ratio, rectangular cavity rotating about a vertical axis through its centre. When heating and cooling were initiated at the respective vertical end walls of the cavity, a hot current formed along the surface and a cold current along the bottom. These moved out from each end wall into the interior of the tank, but were confined to the sidewalls (model coastlines) by the effects of rotation. Initially the currents propagated under a balance between buoyancy and inertial forces, with an unstable balance between buoyancy and Coriolis forces in the cross-stream direction. Drag forces eventually slowed the the propagation speeds. The currents were internally stratified in temperature, and became unstable as a result of a rotationally dominated instability, driven by both the potential energy associated with the temperature difference between the currents and the isothermal environment and the velocity shear across the current. The flows were analogous to buoyancy driven coastal currents such as the East Greenland Current, the Norwegian Coastal Current and the Leeuwin Current off Western Australia. As an experiment progressed, the instabilities on the currents grew and broke to produce eddies which eventually filled the cavity. The timescales for development of the stratification within the cavity were found to be dependent on the end wall temperatures, but independent of rotation. In its statistically steady state the mean circulation consisted of baroclinic boundary currents superimposed on two basin-scale counter-rotating gyres and a nearly linear vertical temperature gradient. These observations can be explained in terms of potential vorticity dynamics in the presence of a relative slope between isopotential surfaces and horizontal boundaries. Measurements of the potential vorticity were made in the laboratory flow and the quantity proved to be a very effective dynamical tracer. The steady state flow may have interesting implications for the large scale circulation of the oceans.

description: Specifying language teaching and learning content is a crucial first step in generating resources for a language program. Content specification involves preparing a list of elements to be taught in a specified order, taking into account aspects such as the course setting, learners' requirements, and teaching principles (Nation & Macalister, 2010). Content definition optimizes interactions between input, learner, and learning process. Kumaravadivelu (2006) suggests that after determining the input, curriculum development should focus on the content and design of classroom activities and resources. Local materials production progresses throughout time, reflecting historical shifts in language development and foreign language instruction.

description: A scissors mode of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The condensate is confined in an axi-symmetric harmonic trap, superimposed with a small rotating deformation. For angular velocities larger than $ω_\perp/\sqrt2 $, where $ω_\perp$ is the radial trap frequency, the frequency of the scissors mode is predicted to vanish like the square root of the deformation, due to the tendency of the system to exhibit spontaneous rotational symmetry breaking. Measurements of the frequency confirm the predictions of theory. Accompanying characteristic oscillations of the internal shape of the condensate are also calculated and observed experimentally.

description: When tectonic plates move, parts of the Earth’s crust are stretched, causing its uppermost layers to break in a brittle fashion and creating fractures. Certain relationships between the direction of regional basin-forming stretching and fracture orientations in rocks that fill the basin (here referred to as “cover” rocks) have been established. However, new fractures can inherit the properties of the underlying, stretched “basement” rocks, so that they are oblique to their expected orientation. The aim of this research is to better understand the impact of this basement-cover interaction, known as structural inheritance, on fractures at different scales.

description: The lifetime of electrons on edge states of a two-dimensional topological insulator against the background of an allowed two-dimensional band has been determined. It has been shown that this time in the case of scattering on Coulomb impurities can be significantly larger than the mean free time of two-dimensional electrons. As a result, the conductivity of the metallic two-dimensional topological insulator strip can be determined primarily by edge states.

description: Upcoming gravitational wave-experiments promise a window for discovering new physics in astronomy. Detection sensitivity of the broadband laser interferometric detectors LIGO/VIRGO may be enhanced by matched filtering with accurate wave-form templates. Where analytic methods break down, we have to resort to numerical relativity, often in Hamiltonian or various hyperbolic formulations. Well-posed numerical relativity requires consistency with the elliptic constraints of energy and momentum conservation. We explore this using a choice of gauge in the future and a dynamical gauge in the past. Applied to a polarized Gowdy wave, this enables solving {\em all} ten vacuum Einstein equations. Evolution of the Schwarzschild metric in 3+1 and, more generally, sufficient conditions for well-posed numerical relativity continue to be open challenges.

description: Detailed observations of phenomena involving black holes, be it via gravitational waves or more traditional electromagnetic means, can probe the strong field regime of the gravitational interaction. The prediction of features in such observations requires detailed knowledge of the black hole spacetime, both within and outside of General Relativity. We present here a new numerical code that can be used to obtain stationary solutions that describe black hole spacetimes in a wide class of modified theories of gravity. The code makes use of a relaxed Newton-Raphson method to solve the discretized field equations with a Newton's polynomial finite difference scheme. We test and validate this code by considering static and spherically symmetric black holes both in General Relativity, as well as in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with a linear (linear scalar-Gauss-Bonnet) and an exponential (Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet) coupling. As a by-product of the latter, we find that analytic solutions obtained in the small coupling approximation are in excellent agreement with our fully non-linear solutions when using a linear coupling. As expected, differences arise when using an exponential coupling. We then use these numerical solutions to construct a fitted analytical model, which we then use to calculate physical observables such as the innermost stable circular orbit and photon sphere and compare them to the numerical results. This code lays the foundation for more detailed calculations of black hole observables that can be compared with data in the future.

description: We construct exact functional renormalization group (RG) flow equations for non-relativistic fermions in arbitrary dimensions, taking into account not only mode elimination but also the rescaling of the momenta, frequencies and the fermionic fields. The complete RG flow of all relevant, marginal and irrelevant couplings can be described by a system of coupled flow equations for the irreducible n-point vertices. Introducing suitable dimensionless variables, we obtain flow equations for generalized scaling functions which are continuous functions of the flow parameter, even if we consider quantities which are dominated by momenta close to the Fermi surface, such as the density-density correlation function at long wavelengths. We also show how the problem of constructing the renormalized Fermi surface can be reduced to the problem of finding the RG fixed point of the irreducible two-point vertex at vanishing momentum and frequency. We argue that only if the degrees of freedom are properly rescaled it is possible to reach scale-invariant non-Fermi liquid fixed points within a truncation of the exact RG flow equations.

Oxygen impurities in NiAl: Relaxation effects

description: We have used a full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method to calculate the effects of oxygen impurities on the electronic structure of NiAl. Using the supercell method with a 16-atom supercell we have investigated the cases where an oxygen atom is substitutionally placed at either a nickel or an aluminum site. Full relaxation of the atoms within the supercell was allowed. We found that oxygen prefers to occupy a nickel site over an aluminum site with a site selection energy of 138 mRy (21,370 K). An oxygen atom placed at an aluminum site is found to cause a substantial relaxation of its nickel neighbors away from it. In contrast, this steric repulsion is hardly present when the oxygen atom occupies the nickel site and is surrounded by aluminum neighbors. We comment on the possible relation of this effect to the pesting degradation phenomenon (essentially spontaneous disintegration in air) in nickel aluminides.

description: It is shown that the experimentally observed inverse linear decay of surface corrugations in Si(001) (Erlebacher et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 5800 (2000)) is due to the two dimensional nature of the surface in the experimental system. The theory of one dimensional surface relaxation predicts in this case an exponential decay, contrary to claims by Ozdemir and Zangwill (Phys. Rev. B 42, 5013 (1990).

Corporate financial policy and taxation

description: This thesis examines the role played by taxes on f i rm financing decisions in a general equilibrium uncertainty setting. The study isolates the conditions required for capital structure and dividend policy irrelevance to the value of the corporate firm. These conditions are relaxed to see how financial decisions are made. In the process there is a review of past theories of optimal capital structure choice, where most rely on leverage related costs. We present a model of optimal firm financial policy that does not rely on leverage related costs, but which is explained by incompleteness of securities markets . In the presence of taxes which discriminate between securities and investors, short-selling constraints will be required to rule out tax arbitrage. These constraints, which may arise endogenously, will limit the ability of investors to lever on personal account. Firm capital structure choice then becomes a substitute for personal leverage, where investor risk and tax preferences will matter to firm financial policy . In subsequent chapters this analysis is used to examine two issues . The first is to see how fully anticipated inflation rates affect t he financing decisions of firms, and the second is to consider the role of government ownership in firms, and in particular, the effects on shareholders (taxpayers) of privatisation (private equity sale s) in publicly owned firms.
Continuity and discontinuity of kirigami's high-extensibility transition: a statistical-physics viewpoint

description: Recently, kirigami's high extensibility has been understood as a transition in the force-elongation curve. In this paper, we consider a model, which modifies our previous model, to show a striking analogy between the present theory and Landau theory of continuous thermodynamic transitions, if we regard a rotation angle and elongation of kirigami as the order parameter and the inverse temperature, respectively. The present study opens a new avenue in physics, pointing out the importance of the distinction between discontinuity and continuity of the high-extensibility transition in an elementary kirigami structure, and showing that the mechanical response of kirigami can be understood using the tools of statistical physics, which have been proved to be useful in many fields of physics.

 Nach meiner Interpretation (ARENS 2004a) ist H. generosa diejenige grössere Spezies aus dem früher (LINSENMAIER 1959a) als " gloriosa -Gruppe" bezeichneten Artenkreis, die auch in Mitteleuropa vorkommt. Linsenmaier hat sie vor allem mit der Art vermengt, die ich unter dem Namen H. amoenula führe. Vermutlich ist ovata DAHLBOM 1854 ein Synonym von generosa (FÖRSTER 1853).
 Die auf der Peloponnes vorkommende Unterart H. generosa virideaurata LINSENMAIER 1951 lässt sich anhand ihrer gleichmässig zarten Punktierung des Abdomens und anderer Merkmale gut von syntopen H. amoenula und H. punctatissima reducta unterscheiden (siehe ARENS 2004a). Sie fliegt merklich früher im Jahr als diese letzteren beiden Arten, ist ziemlich selten und scheint nur im Tiefland vorzukommen.
 Als Wirt der mitteleuropäischen Nominatform hat VEENENDAAL (2012) kürzlich die Grabwespe Astata boops (SCHRANK) beobachtet.

Orientational Ordering in Monolayers of Ortho-Para Hydrogen

description: We discuss orientational ordering in monolayers of solid hydrogen in view of recent experimental findings in NMR studies of (\QTR{it}{ortho)}$_{c}$-(\QTR{it}{para)}$_{1-c}$-hydrogen mixtures on boron nitride substrate. Analysis of the temperature-concentration behavior for the observed NMR frequency splitting is given on the basis of a two-dimension ($J=1)_{c}$-($J=0)_{1-c}$-rotor model with the quadrupolar coupling constant $Γ_{0}=0.50\pm 0.03$ $K$ and the crystalline field amplitude $V_{0}=0.70\pm 0.10$ $K$ derived from experiment. The two distinct para-rotational (PR) short-range ordered structures are described in terms of the local alignment and orientation of the polar principal axis, and are shown to be due to the interplay between the positive and negative crystalline fields. It is shown that the observed below the 2D site percolation threshold $c_{p}=0.72$ local structures are rather different from the ferromagnetic-type PR ordering suggested earlier by Harris and Berlinsky.

description: This paper explores the energy scales of the doped Anderson lattice model using dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT), using a continuous-time Quantum Monte Carlo (CTQMC) impurity solver. We show that the low temperature properties of the lattice can not be scaled using the single ion local Kondo temperature $T_K$ but instead are governed by a doping-dependent coherence temperature $T*$ which can be used to scale the temperature dependence of the spectral function, transport properties, and entropy. At half filling $T*$ closely approximates the single ion $T_K$, but as the filling $n_c$ is reduced to zero, $T*$ also vanishes. The coherence temperature $T*$ is shown to play a role of effective impurity Kondo temperature in the lattice model, and physical observables show significant evolution at $T*$. In the DMFT framework, we showed that the hybridization strength of the effective impurity model is qualitatively affected by the doping level, and determines $T*$ in the lattice model.
