Building... then crossing bridges in support of open research
Creators: name: Proven, Jackie
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019
Subjects: open research
open scholarship
case study
scholarly communications
research support

description: Following a restructure in May 2019, the University of St Andrews scholarly communications team moved out of the University Library and became embedded in Research and Innovation Services. For many years, the University Library Digital Research teams (including open access and research data management) have worked very closely with the University's research office to share knowledge, build relationships and provide support to researchers with a joint approach. At a time when most libraries are building their support for open research, it is unusual for the scholarly communications function to sit in a research office. In this talk, we will explore the opportunities presented by this change, such as the ability to communicate open research messages with a strong 'policy' context and being closer to the levers needed to facilitate the required cultural change in researcher behaviour. We will also discuss the challenges in developing the skills needed to support open research, including copyright and licensing expertise, repository maintenance, metadata creation and APC management alongside, rather than within, the library. We aim to present new perspectives on collaboration across departments and how crossing bridges can help drive the open research agenda.

description: Gribov approach to high-energy interactions of hadrons and nuclei is reviewed and applied to calculation of particle production in heavy-ions collisions. It is pointed out that the AGK (Abramovsky, Gribov, Kancheli) cutting rules is a powerful tool to investigate particle spectra in these processes. It leads, in the Glauber approximation, to a simple formula for the density of hadrons produced in the central rapidity region in nucleus-nucleus interactions. An estimate of this density for RHIC and LHC is presented and compared with results of Monte-Carlo calculations. It is shown that the Glauber approximation substantially overestimate particle densities compared to the results of the complete Gribov theory. This is due to extra shadowing in the system, related to large mass diffraction which leads to a strong decrease of particle densities at mid rapidities. Our method of calculation of these effects has been applied to the problem of shadowing of nuclear structure functions and a good agreement with experimental data has been obtained.

description: Cet article examine le rôle stratégique de la logistique inversée dans la promotion de l’économie circulaire. À partir d’une revue de littérature systématique et d’une analyse documentaire, l’étude explore les synergies entre ces deux domaines, en mettant en lumière les mécanismes par lesquels la logistique inversée contribue à la réduction des déchets, à l’optimisation des flux inverses et à la valorisation des ressources par le recyclage et le remanufacturing. Les résultats montrent que cette approche permet non seulement de réaliser des économies significatives, mais aussi de générer de la valeur ajoutée pour les entreprises. Sur le plan environnemental, elle contribue à la diminution de l’empreinte carbone, tandis que socialement, elle favorise l’innovation et la création d’emplois durables. Toutefois, des freins subsistent, notamment des barrières organisationnelles, des contraintes technologiques et des lacunes réglementaires. L’étude recommande l’adoption de politiques publiques incitatives, l’intégration des technologies émergentes et le renforcement des partenariats entre acteurs publics et privés. La logistique inversée apparaît ainsi comme un levier stratégique incontournable pour accompagner la transition vers un modèle économique circulaire et durable.

description: Plasma of a stationary ECR discharge sustained by gyrotron radiation at a frequency of 24 GHz and a power of up to 600 W in a mirror magnetic trap was studied. At pressures near the gas breakdown threshold, the extinction effect of an electron-cyclotron discharge is observed with increasing radiation power. When the cyclotron resonance cross section approaches the magnetic plug, the power threshold corresponding to the discharge extinction decreases. These experimental results confirm the presence of the effect of particles precipitation from the trap as a result of electron-cyclotron resonance interaction with gyrotron radiation. The experimental scaling of the extinction power dependence on the position of the ECR cross section in a magnetic trap corresponds to the results of the estimates on the basis of the theory of particle precipitation in the quasilinear diffusion regime.

subject: Economics

description: This dissertation studies the COVID-19 pandemic broadly through the lens of political economy, focusing on the social, entrepreneurial, and political implications of the pandemic. The first chapter examines what has happened to commercial relationships and friendships throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. While many have discussed the toll the pandemic took on general friendships and relationships, none have discussed what happened to commercial friendships during the pandemic. The second chapter studies entrepreneurship during the COVID-19 pandemic. The entrepreneurship literature discusses many different types of crisis entrepreneurs, like natural disaster entrepreneurs and conflict entrepreneurs. This chapter situates and defines pandemic entrepreneurship within the broader crisis entrepreneurship literature. The last chapter applies the median voter theorem to the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly to US governors’ mask mandates. It analyzes whether governors followed public health concerns or catered to voter preferences on mask mandates, when the two were in contention.

description: This thesis demonstrates that advancements in communication, technology and media are providing new inspiration, tools and techniques to quilt artists and have enabled them to transform the 1960s art quilt into a new hybrid form: quilts that reference the sciences in new and specific ways and in doing so, create new access to the sciences. Science-infused art quilts have evolved naturally from art quilts because quilt artists desire to educate, inspire, and express and influence culture by artistically employing and referencing the sciences. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) has played a major role in the making and the enhancement of quilts up to modern day. Today, STEAM is a new innovation that couples the sciences with art and design; STEM + Art = STEAM, (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Mathematics). In the twenty-first century the public debate about innovation has focused increasingly on the role of art as an important source of creativity and a new term has been forged to designate the broadened definition of the foundational fields: STEAM. To some degree, art quilts have always embodied the ideas embraced by STEM but twenty-first century quilts have evolved into still broader stylistic and conceptual categories and often function as the "A", the art component in STEAM.

Subjects: subject: 91202 Composite and Hybrid Materials

description: In this study, the effect of the end conditions of cross-ply laminated composite beams (CLCB) on their nondimensionalnatural frequencies of free vibration was investigated. The problem is analyzed and solved using theenergy approach which is formulated by a finite element model. In that model, a three-noded element with threedegrees of freedom at each node is assumed. Numerical results were verified by comparisons with other relevantworks. The end conditions of beams are: clamped -free (CF), hinged -hinged (HH), clamped -clamped (CC), hinged -clamped (HC), hinged -free (HF), free -free (FF). Each beam has either movable ends or immovable ends. It is foundthat the more constrained beams have the higher values of natural frequencies of transverse vibration. However, thefree-free and hinged-free beams are found to have the highest frequencies of transverse vibration amongst all beamsalthough they look less constrained. This behavior is due to the fact that the first mode of the two beams is equal zero(rigid body motion), and replaced by the second mode to be the fundamental mode. The values of the naturalfrequencies of longitudinal modes are found to be the same for all beams with movable ends since they are generatedby longitudinal movements only. But for immovable ends, the clamped-free and hinged-free beams have equalfrequencies in longitudinal vibration, and those of the other beams are also the same
Diffractive Structure Function in a Quasi-Classical Approximation

Year: 1999

description: We derive an expression for diffractive F_2 structure function which should be valid at small x for quasi-elastic scattering on a hadron and for quasi-elastic scattering on a large nucleus. This expression includes multiple rescatterings of the quark-antiquark pair produced by the virtual photon off the sources of color charge in a quasi-classical approximation. We find that there is a relation between such diffractive production and inclusive processes. In the former, one averages over all colors of sources before squaring the amplitude, and in the latter one first squares the amplitude and then averages it in the hadron's or nuclear wave function. We show that in the limit of a large virtuality of the photon Q^2 the diffractive structure function becomes linearly proportional to the gluon distribution of the hadron or nucleus, therefore proving that in this sense diffraction is a leading twist effect.

description: The analysis conducted in Task 2.2 of the Work Package No.2 of the TRADE4SD project was designed to offer an overview of how SDGs are included in the EU trade agreements. With this objective, value chains of three strategic products (cocoa, coffee and olive oil) were analysed respectively in Ghana, Vietnam and Tunisia. An important characteristic of the selected countries is that each of them has different types of trade agreements with the EU, each at different stages of negotiation and development.

The synthesis report D2.2 aims to present a short resume of the case studies with a specific focus on summarizing the key differences, primary outcomes, lessons learned and policy recommendations. The differences concern two levels: the structural composition of the case studies and the derived lessons learned and policy recommendations. The overarching objective of this work is to formulate evidence-based policy recommendations that can prove valuable to the EU in its ongoing and forthcoming negotiations.
title: Societal Dynamics & Fragility : Engaging Societies in Responding to Fragile Situations
Creators: name: Bank, World

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Fragility
subject: Governance
subject: Economics and Conflict

description: Extreme fragile situations are now home to at least a quarter of the worlds people. In the worst cases, where fragility has given way to open violence - people are more than twice as likely to be malnourished, more than three times as likely to be unable to send their children to school, twice as likely to see their children die before age five, and more than twice as likely to lack clean water. It is unsurprising that not a single low-income country in these circumstances has been able to achieve even one Millennium Development Goal (World Bank 2011). In addition, many fragile situations generate spillover effects such as trafficking in illegal goods and persons, and corruption, which threaten the stability of neighboring countries (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD 2005, 2010). This study views fragility as not only a problem of state capacity, but also of relationships in society. That is, while some elements of fragility emanate from the state, others are deeply rooted in societal dynamics, the way individuals and groups interact and the relationships that form out of these interactions.

description: To evaluate a potential usually one analyzes trajectories of test particles. For the Galactic Center case astronomers use bright stars or photons, so there are two basic observational techniques to investigate a gravitational potential, namely, (a) monitoring the orbits of bright stars near the Galactic Center as it is going on with 10m Keck twin and four 8m VLT telescopes equipped with adaptive optics facilities (in addition, recently the IR interferometer GRAVITY started to operate with VLT); (b) measuring the size and shape of shadows around black hole with VLBI-technique using telescopes operating in mm-band. At the moment, one can use a small relativistic correction approach for stellar orbit analysis, however, in the future the approximation will not be precise enough due to enormous progress of observational facilities and recently the GRAVITY team found that the first post-Newtonian correction has to be taken into account for the gravitational redshift in the S2 star orbit case. Meanwhile for smallest structure analysis in VLBI observations one really needs a strong gravitational field approximation. We discuss results of observations and their interpretations.

description: We present results of a high statistics study (O(2000) configurations) of the quark masses in the MS-bar scheme from Lattice QCD in the quenched approximation at beta=6.0, beta=6.2 and beta=6.4 using both the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover fermion action. We extract quark masses from the meson spectroscopy and from the axial Ward Identity using non-perturbative values of the renormalization constants. We compare the results obtained with the two methods and we study the O(a) dependence of the quark masses for both actions. Our best results are m_s^(MS-bar)(2 GeV)=(123 +- 4 +- 15) MeV and m_c^(MS-bar)(2 GeV)=(1525 +- 40 +- 100) MeV.

description: We compute the renormalization of the complete CKM matrix in the MSbar scheme and perform a renormalization group analysis of the CKM parameters. The calculation is simplified by studying only the Higgs sector, which for the β-function of the CKM matrix is at one loop the same as in the full Standard Model. The renormalization group flow including QCD corrections can be computed analytically using the hierarchy of the CKM parameters and the large mass differences between the quarks. While the evolution of the Cabibbo angle is tiny V_{ub} and V_{cb} increase sizably. We compare our results with the ones in the full Standard Model.

description: The upper bound on the mass of the lightest Higgs boson is provided in the supersymmetric standard model with multi-Higgs doublets, up to two-loop order. Relatively large corrections are expected from the experimentally unconstrained extra Yukawa couplings. We calculate it including the two-loop leading-log contributions as a function of the scale $Λ$, below which the theory remains perturbative. Even for $Λ=10^{4}$ GeV, we obtain the upper bound of 140 GeV, which is heavier than that of the MSSM by 10 GeV.

description: Using a composite fermion picture, we study the lateral transport between two two-dimensional electron gases, at filling factor 1/2, separated by a potential barrier. In the mean field approximation, composite fermions far from the barrier do not feel a magnetic field while in the barrier region the effective magnetic field is different from zero. This produces a cutoff in the conductance when represented as a function of the thickness and height of the barrier. There is a range of barrier heights for which an incompressible liquid, at $ν=1/3$, exists in the barrier region.

description: Random numbers are an essential resource to many applications, including cryptography and Monte Carlo simulations. Quantum random number generators (QRNGs) represent the ultimate source of randomness, as the numbers are obtained by sampling a physical quantum process that is intrinsically probabilistic. However, they are yet to be widely employed to replace deterministic pseudo random number generators (PRNG) for practical applications. QRNGs are regarded as interesting devices. However they are slower than PRNGs for simulations and are typically seen as clumsy laboratory prototypes, prone to failures and unreliable for cryptographic applications. Here we overcome these limitations and demonstrate a compact and self-contained QRNG capable of generating random numbers at a pace of 8 Gbit/s uninterruptedly for 71 days. During this period, the physical parameters of the quantum process were monitored in real time by self-checking functions implemented in the generator itself. At the same time, the output random numbers were analyzed with the most stringent suites of statistical tests. The analysis shows that the QRNG under test sustained the continuous operation without physical instabilities or hardware failures. At the same time, the output random numbers were analyzed with the most stringent suites of statistical tests, which were passed during the whole operation time. This extensive trial demonstrates the reliability of a robustly designed QRNG and paves the way to its use in practical applications based on randomness.

description: We address the problem of the maximal finite number of real points of a real algebraic curve (of a given degree and, sometimes, genus) in the projective plane. We improve the known upper and lower bounds and construct close to optimal curves of small degree. Our upper bound is sharp if the genus is small as compared to the degree. Some of the results are extended to other real algebraic surfaces, most notably ruled.

description: Shortly after the January 2006 Palestinian legislative elections won by Hamas, Russian President Vladimir Putin surprised much of the international community by inviting its leadership to Moscow. What was especially surprising about this move was that Hamas had not agreed to recognize Israel, renounce violence, or adhere to previous Israeli-Palestinian agreements -- the conditions that the "Quartet" (the U.S., EU, UN, and Russia itself) had set for treating Hamas as a legitimate partner in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. Moscow, though, seemed to hope that its willingness to talk with it would result in Hamas accepting the Quartet's conditions. A Hamas delegation did indeed visit Moscow in March 2006. However, the Putin administration's hopes were disappointed. Hamas did not accept the Quartet's conditions then. Nor has it as of yet.

description: First order orthotropic shear deformation equations for the linear elastic bending response of rectangularplates are introduced. Their solution using a computer program in FORTRAN language based on finite differencesimplementation of the Dynamic Relaxation (DR) method is outlined. The convergence and accuracy of the DRsolutions for elastic linear response of isotropic, orthotropic, and laminated plates are established by comparison withvarious exact and approximate solutions. The present Dynamic Relaxation method (DR) coupled with FiniteDifferences method (FD) shows a fairly good agreement with other analytical and numerical methods used in thepresent study. It was found that the DR linear theory program using uniform meshes can be employed in the analysisof different thicknesses and length to side ratios for isotropic, orthotropic and laminated fibrous plates under uniformloads in a fairly good accuracy. These comparisons show that the type of mesh used (i.e. uniform or graded) isresponsible for the considerable variations in the mid – side and corner stress resultants. It is found that theconvergence of the DR solution depends on several factors including boundary conditions, meshes size, fictitiousdensities and applied load. It is also found that the DR linear theory can be employed with less accuracy in theanalysis of moderately thick and flat isotropic, orthotropic or laminated plates under uniform loads. It is also foundthat the deflection of the plate becomes of an acceptable value when the length to thickness ratio decreases. Forsimply supported (SS1) edge conditions, all the comparison results confirmed that deflection depends on the directionof the applied load and the arrangement of the layers.
The Steady-State Behavior of Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Control Charts

Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)

description: Multivariate Exponentially Weighted Moving Average, MEWMA, charts are popular, handy and effective procedures to detect distributional changes in a stream of multivariate data. For doing appropriate performance analysis, dealing with the steady-state behavior of the MEWMA statistic is essential. Going beyond early papers, we derive quite accurate approximations of the respective steady-state densities of the MEWMA statistic. It turns out that these densities could be rewritten as the product of two functions depending on one argument only which allows feasible calculation. For proving the related statements, the presentation of the non-central chisquare density deploying the confluent hypergeometric limit function is applied. Using the new methods it was found that for large dimensions, the steady-state behavior becomes different to what one might expect from the univariate monitoring field. Based on the integral equation driven methods, steady-state and worst-case average run lengths are calculated with higher accuracy than before. Eventually, optimal MEWMA smoothing constants are derived for all considered measures.

description: Traditional efforts to improve health in the United States have been driven by focusing on the health care system. However, these efforts require broader approaches that also address social, economic, and environmental factors that influence health. Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death in the United States. Although CVD disparities are shaped by differences in risk factors across racial and ethnic groups, non-traditional risk factors such as housing and food insecurities remain important social determinants of health (SDOH). While the recent trend in CVD mortality has declined, the prevalence of CVD is expected to rise by 10% in 2030. With this current trajectory, chapter 1 of this dissertation is focused on identifying predictors of SDOH by reviewing and summarizing literature that examined the association of housing and food insecurity with cardiovascular disease. Chapter 2 builds on the findings from study-1 through identified literature gap in potential predictors of housing and food insecurities, retrospectively examining how demographics, socioeconomic, and healthcare characteristics differ by available food environment and the likelihood of CVD mortality with poor food environment. Chapter 3 focuses on addressing this unique challenge of capturing SDOH by conducting a natural experiment using the Difference-in-Difference methodology and examining whether the broad-based health delivery system and payment reforms can incentivize social risk factor diagnosis in hospital settings among adults hospitalized with CVD.
Propriedades fotométricas da superfície de Pequenos Corpos

description: As duas principais populações de pequenos corpos, asteroides e cometas, apresentam caracteristicas físico-químicas distintas em suas superfícies. A maioria dos estudos da superfície destes corpos é pautada
pela observação de luz integrada a partir de telescópios na Terra, sendo
que, atualmente, apenas 13 objetos foram visitados e monitorados em
detalhes por missões espaciais. O objetivo desta tese é estudar os dados
fotométricos de pequenos corpos visando compreender suas propriedades
superficiais coletivas e individuais. A fotometria permite obter imagens
de alta resolução angular que fornecem informações sobre a topografia
e as variegações destes corpos.
Para o estudo das propriedades coletivas, utilizamos o maior catá-
logo fotométrico de asteroides, o Sloan Digital Sky Survey Moving Object Catalog 4. Ao transformarmos as reflectâncias para o espaço de
componentes principais para três amostras do catálogo, notamos dois
alinhamentos contínuos na espectro-fotometria para os asteroides com
a presença e sem presença da banda de absorção de silicatos. Dessa
maneira, propomos um novo sistema de classificação e interpretação dos
dados espectro-fotométricos de asteroides baseado em ambas continuidades.
Para o estudo individual, trabalhamos com imagens em filtros entre
270 a 989 nm obtidos pelo sistema de câmera OSIRIS a bordo da sonda
espacial Rosetta. E assim estudamos dois objetos representativos das
duas populações de pequenos corpos: o asteroide (21) Lutetia e o alvo
prioritário da missão, o cometa 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.
iv
Em (21) Lutetia, concentramo-nos na análise da região de Baetica
que contém um sistema de crateras sobrepostas que apresentam as maiores variegações no polo norte. Nela, estudamos a relação da espectrofotometria com os parâmetros do modelo de Hapke, que revelam diferenças nas propriedades do regolito. A análise mostra uma dicotomia
entre os lados da maior cratera do sistema, possivelmente relacionadas
a diferenças nos regolitos.
Para o cometa 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, empreendemos um estudo fotométrico global das imagens obtidas sobre o estágio de aproximação da sonda. O efeito de oposição e avermelhamento por ângulo de
fase foram pela primeira vez observados em um núcleo cometário. Distinguimos variabilidade espectro-fotométrica na superfície do núcleo que
foram classificadas em três grupos de acordo com a inclinação espectral
e localização.
Concluimos a tese discutindo a implicação de cada um dos resultados sobre a composição, formação e transformação dos regolitos em
pequenos corpos.
