description: This thesis consists of two long essays. The first, “Hang on St. Christopher,” tells the story of a cross-continental roadtrip that I took with my girlfriend Meg before I moved away from her in Pennsylvania to attend graduate school at George Mason in Northern Virginia. We had wanted to share an adventure before my leaving as a way of building a stronger foundation so that we could better stand the separation of a long-distance relationship. But I had been concerned that the trip, for which Meg was footing most of the bill, would end up highlighting our class differences to the point that our relationship would fall apart entirely. The essay examines those class differences, the ways in which they manifest, and how they affected our relationship over the course of the roadtrip. The second essay, “Babel of the Apes,” details and discusses the fraught history of language-research on great-apes, specifically on the chimpanzee, Nim, and the bonobo, Kanzi. The essay focuses on researchers’ and the public’s susceptibility to both ends of the anthropomorphic/-centric spectrum. In the case of ape-language research, researchers who have indulged some degree of anthropomorphism have often made, at first, scientific breakthroughs over the nature of language and other animals’ capacity for it. Years and sometimes decades later, though, those researchers would have swung so far into one or the other end of that spectrum that they would find themselves accused of animal mistreatment, conducting “bad science,” or both. At the heart of the essay is the question of how to navigate the murky waters that this spectrum represents as scientists, essayists, animal lovers, and most of all, as human beings trying our best to understand our relationship to other species.

description: The thesis project, impulse Present, was a site-specific work presented in two separate public performances. The first performance was on September 22, 2008, as part of the George Mason University’s Fall for the Book Festival, and the second performance was on September 27, 2008 during “Clarendon Day,” a neighborhood street festival in Arlington, VA. This project included a 19-member cast, involved audience participation and used improvisational elements within a loosely choreographed structure. The duration of the work was approximately 30 minutes. In this work, the audience was invited to physically join in spontaneous duets with the dancers. Given the esoteric nature of modern art and the reluctance of many potential audience members to experience it, the predominant question was: “How can I create a work where the audience is invited to be participatory yet doesn’t feel pressured to ‘perform’ when they intended to observe?”

Chemistry

description: p-Chlorobenzophenone (p-CBP) is the important chemical intermediate used for the synthesis of several pharmaceutical drugs like fenofibrate, cetirizine, alprazolam, and benzodiazepine. The aim of this study was set to evaluate the impact of biofield energy treatment on physicochemical and spectroscopic properties of p-CBP. The study was accomplished in two groups i.e. control and treated. The treated group was subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment. Subsequently, the control and treated samples of p-CBP were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analyzer, surface area analyzer, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis-derivative thermogravimetric analysis (TGA-DTG), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The XRD study exhibited the increase in average crystallite size (25.93%) as well as the intensity of XRD peaks of treated p-CBP, as compared to the control. The particle size analysis showed the reduction in particle size of fine particles (≤51.49 μm) by 21.6% (d10), whereas, increase in particle size of large particles (≥433.59 μm) by 12.82% (d90) and 17.71% (d99), respectively after biofield treatment, as compared to the control. The surface area analysis exhibited the surface area as 0.7005 m2/g in control and 0.7020 m2/g in treated sample of p-CBP. The DSC thermogram of treated p-CBP exhibited the slight decrease in melting temperature. However, the latent heat of fusion was significantly altered (24.90%) after biofield energy treatment as compared to the control. TGA analysis showed the weight loss by 57.36% in control and 58.51% in treated sample. In addition, the onset temperature of thermal degradation was also decreased by 6.32% after biofield energy treatment as compared to the control p- CBP. The FT-IR and UV spectroscopic study did not show the alteration in the wavenumber and wavelength, respectively in treated p-CBP as compared to the control. Altogether, the XRD, particle size and thermal analysis suggest that biofield energy treatment has significant impact on physical and thermal properties of treated p-CBP.

title: An Examination of Cherokee Marriage Following the Establishment of the First Cherokee Written Laws, 1808

Publisher: name: George Mason University

Subjects: subject: Cherokee
subject: Kinship
subject: Marriage
subject: Matrilineal

description: In this work I challenge the view held by some scholars that the written laws published by the Cherokee Nation on September 11, 1808 attempted to undermine matrilineal clan management of marriage practices. I describe how Cherokee leaders, both women and men, adopted aspects of the legal template from the United States juridical system and designed laws to accommodate existing marital practices, reflecting the goal to protect, defend, and ensure the political, economic, and social rights of women. Although there was now to be written law consistent with legal systems in Europe and the United States, there was already extensive Cherokee “law” (albeit unwritten) that regulated choice of spouse, defined the legality of the marriage, designated membership, and directed inheritance through the woman. The matrilineal kinship structure effectively resisted the persistent pressures exerted upon it by the government of the United States to capitulate to a patriarchal legal system that privileged men over women as heads of household, iii property owners, and guardians of children. The process of developing written laws that accurately reflected Cherokee values and beliefs involved the complementary governance defined by the authority and power exercised by both women and men. My interpretation of the events recorded by Euro-American and American men of the colonial period, including often quite biased accounts and misinterpretations of Cherokee life, ultimately provided the evidence that matrilineal clan management of marriage and inheritance was not evanescent.
On the initial fabric and triaxial behaviour of an undisturbed and reconstituted fluvial sand
Creators: name: Quinteros Araujo, Vicente Santiago
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2022

description: The initial micro-structural fabric and the macro stress-strength response of an undisturbed fluvial sand has been investigated. The fluvial deposited sand was obtained from a well characterized research site named Øysand near Trondheim, Norway. Efforts were made to obtain samples using state-of-the-practice and state-of-the-art piston techniques, but without much success; hence the ground freezing for sampling technique was assessed as an alternative. After performing series of frost-heave laboratory tests, the susceptibility of Øysand soils was investigated. The study concluded that ground freezing for sampling was a viable alternative to sampling undisturbed sand, but not silt. Ground freezing for sampling was successfully carried out in the field and several metres of frozen soil were obtained. Using µCT-scanning and image analysis, a frozen sample was then used to investigate the micro-fabric of the undisturbed soil. The initial fabric of the frozen soil was then compared against the fabric imposed by four different reconstitution methods, namely dry deposition, moist tamping, water spooning, and slurry deposition. Moreover, additional frozen samples were carefully handled, thawed, and tested under triaxial monotonic drained and undrained conditions. The monotonic behaviour of undisturbed sand was compared against test results of specimens reconstituted to the same void ratio and using the exact same original soil. The experimental results indicate that neither the initial fabric, nor the stress-strength response of fluvial deposited sand can be exactly replicated in the laboratory. However, from the four reconstitution methods used, the slurry deposition produced the closest results, both in terms of initial fabric and the stress-strength response, while moist tamping showed the greatest differences. In general, this study highlights the importance of the initial fabric on the micro- and macro-behaviour of granular materials and its implications to geotechnical engineering research and practice.

subject: Narrative
subject: Identity conflict

description: This thesis describes current-day (2019) Azerbaijani government narratives regarding the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict and explores how government narrative impacts potential peace building efforts. The Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict is described as intractable, and therefore understanding the active conflict and peace narratives perpetuated by the leaders of the nations at war is key in considering conflict transformation strategies. The study included a three month textual study of publications in selected Azerbaijani newspapers as well as thematic analysis of twenty-four semi-structured interviews in the capital of Azerbaijan. The results of the analysis show that government conflict narrative in Azerbaijan contributes to a willingness amongst the Azerbaijani people to engage in conflict in order to accomplish collective territorial goals. This thesis is intended to be a resource for researchers looking to understand the long-term impacts of identity-based conflict narrative on peace processes in a time of rising territorial disputes.

description: The VeriFish initial recommendations for how to efficiently communicate to consumers about seafood are designed to be a useful tool for the seafood industry when designing seafood campaigns with the aim of increasing seafood consumption.

This report (D4.1 – Initial Recommendation for how to efficiently communicate to consumers about seafood) is linked to task 4.1, where input and experiences from WP2 and WP3, existing literature and knowledge on the issue is used to make an initial Good Practice recommendation on how to efficiently communicate to consumers about seafood and how to organise sustainable seafood consumption campaigns. Relevant communication strategies for consumer types, geographical areas, seafood types and media types, including characteristics of the products to highlight for different cases and how to present them are outlined.

Results from this will ultimately be published as a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA), which may serve as a foundation for a potential future ISO standard. The upcoming CWA from WP4 of VeriFish builds on this document, the indicator framework developed in WP2, and the communication strategies documented in WP3.

Following the introduction, the report is structured to guide the reader through the development of recommendations on how to efficiently communicate to consumers about seafood. In chapter 2 Consumer types, different aspects related to communication towards different segments of seafood consumers are addressed and elaborated, including geographical considerations. Within chapter 3 Seafood types seafood is categorized into groups with the aim of both including all seafood, but also bearing in mind the possibility of reconciling them with different consumer types where it can be appropriate to communicate different information about seafood. Because of the aims and complexity in grouping seafood, there is also a section with rationale behind rejected seafood type categorizations to be found as appendix (chapter 8). In 4 Communication strategies some essential considerations when planning how to communicate information about seafood to different types of audience is elaborated. Ultimately in chapter 5 Recommendations a comprehensive table of initial VeriFish recommendations for how to efficiently communicate to consumers about seafood sums it all up with specific recommendations per consumer type and seafood type. In 6 Examples there are two case examples of how the table of recommendations in chapter 5 Recommendations can be used in practice. In addition, we tested the use of the ChatGPT 4.0 app from OpenAI as a tool to plan and execute a marketing campaign for a seafood product as a case. The purpose was to assess the quality and documentation of the AI-generated output.

description: Klebsiella are opportunistic pathogens that cause a wide spectrum of severe diseases. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of biofield treatment on multidrug resistant strain of K. oxytoca with respect to antibiogram pattern along with biochemical study and biotype number. Clinical lab isolate of K. oxytoca was divided into two groups i.e. control and treated. Control group remain untreated and treated group was subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield. The analysis was done on day 10 after biofield treatment and compared with control group. Control and treated groups were analyzed for antimicrobial susceptibility pattern, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), biochemical reactions and biotype number using MicroScan Walk-Away® automated system. Experimental results showed the impact of biofield treatment on K. oxytoca and found alteration in both antimicrobial sensitivity and MIC values as compared with untreated group. Antimicrobial sensitivity of about 26.67% tested antimicrobials out of thirty was altered with respect to control. MIC results showed about 12.50% alterations in tested antimicrobials as compared to control. Biochemical study showed 24.24% alteration in tested biochemical reactions after biofield treatment. A significant change in biotype number (7713 5272) was identified after biofield treatment as compared to control (7775 4332). In treated group, a new species was identified as Kluyvera ascorbata, as compared to control, K. oxytoca. Study findings suggest that biofield treatment has a significant effect in altering the antimicrobial sensitivity, MIC values, biochemical reactions and biotype number of multidrug resistant strain of K. oxytoca. Biofield treatment could be applied to alter the antibiogram-resistogram pattern of antimicrobials.

description: This dissertation examines the role of schools in micro and macro level occupational attainment in Japan. Using two survey datasets – the Japanese Life Course Panel Surveys (JLPS, N=4,800) and the Tokyo Metropolitan High School Student Survey (TM-S, N= 2,830) – and in-depth interviews with high school teachers as supplemental data, this research investigates how vocational programs and school mediated job-search systems, which are instituted with school-employer networks and in-school job placement offices, function to prepare young people, especially high school graduates, to enter the labor market. Overall, this study finds mixed effects of school mediated job-search systems on occupational attainment. While use of school mediated job-search systems increases the chances of finding a relatively stable and high prestige job for high school graduates from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, it also increases occupational gender segregation.

Traditionell erfordert die Kostenschätzung mit BIM hoch detaillierte Modelle, doch in frühen Projektphasen fehlen oft die nötigen Informationen, und ihr Einpflegen wäre fachlich nicht sinnvoll und mit grossem Aufwand verbunden. kV2BIM löst dieses Problem, indem es einfache BIM-Modelle intelligent ergänzt und durch eine topologische Analyse von Räumen und Bauteilen relevante Informationen extrahiert. So schliesst dieser Prozess Informationslücken im BIM-Modell und erlaubt in Kombination mit keeValue präzise Kostenschätzungen – selbst aus minimalen Daten. kV2BIM ersetzt den traditionellen linearen Planungsprozess durch automatisierte Iterationen und optimiert so die Kostenermittlung von Immobilienprojekten.

description: Intellectual disability (ID) is defined as an impairment of social, conceptual, and practical abilities necessary for both intellectual and adaptive functioning (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Such impairments have been shown to be associated with problem behaviors such as self-injury (SIB), aggressive behavior, and stereotypic movements. Though much research has been conducted on the etiology of challenging behavior, the association of mood, interest and pleasure, and behavior problems has rarely been investigated. The current cross-sectional study aimed to investigate whether mood and interest/pleasure may predict SIB, aggressive behavior and stereotypic behavior, or vice versa. Staff members of a Hungarian residential facility on behalf of 52 adults with severe and profound ID completed the Behavior Problems Inventory- Short Form (BPI-S), the Challenging Behavior Interview (CBI), and the Mood, Interest and Pleasure Questionnaire- Short Form (MIPQ-S). Multiple regression analyses showed that low interest/pleasure might be a possible predictor of frequency and severity of challenging behavior (BPI-S). At the same time, challenging behaviors may predict low levels of interest/pleasure. Future research on the causal direction between mood and interest/pleasure on the one hand and challenging behavior on the other ideally should focus on longitudinal data from young children.

description: This thesis assesses the effect of curcumin on Francisella (F.) novicida and the protein FtsZ. Curcumin is a polyphenolic compound found in turmeric that is widely used as a spice and an ayurvedic medicine in South-East Asia. F. novicida is the non-virulent strain of F. tularensis and is commonly used as a model organism as it can be used in a BSL2 laboratory. Antibacterial assays demonstrated that curcumin inhibited bacterial growth at 16 μg/ml (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) and did not affect biofilm formation in F. novicida. Curcumin showed a dose-dependent relationship in significantly reducing bacterial load in F. novicida-infected mouse macrophages, suggesting that curcumin is able to enter the macrophages and inhibit bacterial growth. – Curcumin showed synergy with three antibiotics doxycycline, erythromycin and ciprofloxacin, suggesting that a combined approach to therapy might be advantageous in treating tularemia. Because of the role of FtsZ in regulating cell division through its interaction with minC, minD, and minE, we examined whether curcumin treatment may alter Francisella morphology, or cause filamentation, as is reported for Bacillus. Curcumin treatment did not show significant changes in bacterial morphology or size but showed an increase in granularity as measured by Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorting. Bioinformatics analysis of curcumin and FtsZ interaction was modeled for the F. novicida protein, and showed a similar docking site with GTP as reported for E. coli FtsZ. A consensus of residues 138 and 142 as being involved in GTP binding was observed using multiple software confirming that curcumin and GTP bind at the same site in FtsZ. Targeting FtsZ with Curcumin provide novel potential target to treat this bacterial infection; however, low bioavailability of curcumin poses a challenge in using curcumin as a therapeutic.

Fundamental analysis of the influence of structure on clay behaviour
Creators: name: Bandera, Sara
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Clay is the most commonly encountered geological material on the Earth’s surface and the engineering properties of soils are strongly affected by their clay content. Understanding and predicting the mechanical behaviour of clay (i.e. strength and compressibility) is then important to successfully deliver large scale infrastructure and building projects, to manage existing infrastructure, and to assess the hazard posed by natural clay slopes. It is well known that processes occurring at the particle scale (i.e. microscale) significantly impact the response observed at the macroscale. While particle-scale simulations of sand behaviour are generally accepted as a research tool in soil mechanics, the use of particle-based modelling to simulate clay for geotechnical engineering applications is not well developed. This is attributed to the particulate nature of clay and to the chemical sensitivity of the particles’ interactions, which result in a highly complex behaviour. This research work critically analyses the key decisions required to develop an effective framework for using Molecular Dynamics (MD) to perform particle-scale simulations of kaolinite and provides recommendations to facilitate other particle-scale studies of clay behaviour. The influence of pore fluid on the mechanical behaviour of kaolinite was assessed by simulating element tests saturated with a pore fluid with alkaline pH (=8) and acidic pH(=4) in a low (1 mM) concentration solution. Kaolinite particles are modelled as flat three-dimensional ellipsoids and their interactions are described by a modified form of the Gay-Berne potential, calibrated against energy-separation distance curves determined using the DLVO theory. The LAMMPS software was used to generate monodisperse and slightly polydisperse samples, and to simulate isotropic compression and one-dimensional compression to 100 kPa. Results at both macro- and micro-scale were analysed and a comparison between the results obtained and those of published experimental studies show that the methodology proposed can deliver sensible results for the material considered.
title: Police Departments and Crime Status in Virginia Communities: An Assessment from the Citizen Perspective

subject: Police performance

description: This report presents the first extensive assessment of crime status and police performance for communities in Virginia. Twenty-four counties and 29 cities were studied for the period 2015 and 2016. Performance was rated from a citizen, rather than a professional law enforcement perspective. Special attention was given to African American communities. The assessment utilized publicly accessible data sources including demographic data from the U.S. Census Bureau, police department web sites, FBI UCR crime statistics, media reports, and other data. We conclude that community history and characteristics, along with police performance, are major influences on local crime rates. This is a preliminary report, pending transfer of data to relational database format, which is expected to facilitate more extensive data comparisons.

description: This study seeks to understand how populations in the Lambayeque Valley Complex on the north coast of Peru, were affected by Spanish colonialism through the study of linear enamel hypoplasia (LEH). Here, stress chronologies are compared between two late precontact samples from Huaca Chornancap (1375-1470) and Huaca de los Sacrificios (AD 1470-1532) with a sample from Eten dating to the Early/Middle Colonial era (AD 1535-1620). The three samples represent indigenous Muchik peoples from two distinct contexts (sacrifice victims and postcontact church cemetery). To characterize the timing of early-life stress, high resolution impressions were used to produce tooth crown replicas and studied under an engineer’s measuring microscope. Perikymata were measured from the most occlusal region of the imbricational enamel along the length of each tooth to the cemento-enamel junction. Accentuated perikymata were used as indicators for LEH and identified using z-scores and a moving average. Employing constants for crown initiation and cuspal enamel formation for each tooth and an eight-day periodicity for each perikymata, age-at-defect-formation was calculated. Age-at-defect formation ranged from 1.1 to 4.4 years across the sample. Although there were no statistically significant differences in age-at-defect-formation across the study, the sample from Eten had the widest range of ages and a slightly lower median age-atdefect- formation. This is hypothesized to represent a change in the timing or prevalence of stress during the Colonial era, whether through shifts in weaning patterns or nutrient access.

description: VeriFish aims to offer a comprehensive framework of sustainability indicators, integrating data from trusted sources to assess environmental, social, and health-related factors in aquafood production, with the ultimate objective of allowing industry professionals and consumers alike to make informed decisions based on transparent, verifiable data.

This deliverable follows D2.1 - Indicator Framework Defined, which defined a comprehensive suite of indicators that might be used to assess and communicate sustainability in the aquafood sector, focusing on fisheries, aquaculture, and human health.

The indicator framework is built around three pillars, each addressing a critical dimension of sustainability to provide a holistic approach to assessing and communicating sustainability of aquafood. These pillars are: (a) Environmental, (b) Nutrition, and (c) Social and Economic, and serve as a backbone for sustainability assessment and communication.

In contrast, this deliverable focuses on: (a) practical application of these indicators (Section 2), and (b) data sources that can be used for implementation of the framework (Sections 3,4 and 5). More specifically, we catalogue and describe key data sources, detailing their coverage, and relevance, and explain access and processing of these data. Moreover, we map data sources to specific indicators, clarifying how each source contributes to describing sustainability across the different pillars. A matrix is also presented that aligns data sources with the indicators in the framework (Section 6). Overall, the final version of the framework comprises 84 indicators distributed across the three main pillars, each further categorised into specific sub-pillars. In addition, more than 35 relevant data sources have been identified and described to support the application and monitoring of these indicators.

description: Αυτή η εργασία επικεντρώνεται στη λειτουργία δικτύων ad hoc οχημάτων (VANETs) και στη δικτύωση διμοιρίας, εξετάζοντας συγκεκριμένα την επικοινωνία μεταξύ των οχημάτων για τη βελτίωση της οδηγικής ασφάλειας και τη μείωση της κυκλοφοριακής συμφόρησης. Η μελέτη θα χρησιμοποιήσει το Veins σε συνδυασμό με το Omnet++ και το SUMO για την παρακολούθηση της συμπεριφοράς μιας διμοιρίας οχημάτων, ιδιαίτερα σε σενάρια όπου ένα όχημα αντιμετωπίζει ατύχημα και στέλνει μηνύματα σε άλλους να αλλάξουν κατεύθυνση ή να σταματήσουν. Η έρευνα στοχεύει να δείξει πώς οι φυσικές διαταραχές, όπως τα ατυχήματα, μπορούν να διαταράξουν το σχηματισμό διμοιρίας και να επηρεάσουν την επικοινωνία των οχημάτων, τονίζοντας την αλληλεπίδραση μεταξύ των φυσικών συνθηκών και της απόδοσης του δικτύου.
description: This paper focuses on the operation of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) and platoon networking, looking specifically at inter-vehicle communication to improve driving safety and reduce traffic congestion. The study will use Veins in combination with Omnet++ and SUMO to monitor the behavior of a platoon of vehicles, particularly in scenarios where one vehicle encounters an accident and sends messages to others to change direction or stop. The research aims to show how physical disturbances, such as accidents, can disrupt platoon formation and affect vehicle communication, highlighting the interaction between physical conditions and network performance.
