Managing organizational change through target setting and forecasting for optimal performance
Creators: name: Oaikhena, Marvellous
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The need to effectively manage organizations or establishments for maximum productivity cannot be overemphasized.  Change is one thing that is constant in life.  Changes within an organization are not random – change occurs in relation to the past and present conditions of an organization.  In fact, one of the hasher realities in business today is that a growing organization will constantly have problems, this is because growth itself means change, that is, change from the perspective of structure, people, task and technology.  Over the years organizations have depended on the environment where it operated for its growth and survival, but often times they are affected by finance, labour turnover, adequate equipment, materials, and re-energizing itself with more resources (human, material etc) all from the environment. The lack of these basic provisions has hampered adequate target setting and forecasting.  This study is thus, set out to find out if there are organizational problems that affect optimal productivity, what type and classes of change are needed and in what priority is its policies, decision making, attitudes, and which components of the environment are specifically affected that must affect changes.  The study adopted the secondary data generational approach, with the aid of empirical literature.  It recommends among others that a manager should be able to show the employee how a proposed change will work to their benefit and should be willing, too, to adduce good reasons behind the change, thus allowing the persons who will be affected by the change to participate in the process of planning the change.
Isaac Watts’s Hymnody as a Guide for the Passions
Creators: name: Johnson, Daniel

description:

Isaac Watts (1674-1748) argued that the passions, understood synonymously with the affections, were an essential component of the Christian experience. Watts designed a system of hymnody which allowed the worshipper to excite, cultivate, and express their passions. This paper traces the history of the passions and affections in those who were to influence Watts’ thought, before considering the ways Watts’ hymns allowed the passions to be experienced and articulated.

description: We study the deformation and dewetting of liquid films under impinging gas jets using experimental, analytical and numerical techniques. We first derive a reduced-order model (a thin-film equation) based on the long-wave assumption and on appropriate decoupling of the gas problem from that for the liquid. The model not only provides insight into relevant flow regimes, but is also used in conjunction with experimental data to guide more computationally prohibitive direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the full governing equations. A unique feature of our modelling solution is the use of an efficient iterative procedure in order to update the interfacial deformation based on stresses originating from computational data. We show that both gas normal and tangential stresses are equally important for achieving accurate predictions. The interplay between these techniques allows us to study previously unreported flow features. These include finite-size effects of the host geometry, with consequences for flow and vortex formation inside the liquid, as well as the specific individual contributions from the non-trivial gas flow components on interfacial deformation. Dewetting phenomena are found to depend on either a dominant gas flow or contact line motion, with the observed behaviour (including healing effects) being explained using a bifurcation diagram of steady-state solutions in the absence of the gas flow.

description:

This article connects John Locke’s concept of uneasiness to Aphra Behn’s poem “On Desire: A Pindarick” and Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park. Behn and Austen offer a corrected reading of Locke’s overtly rationalist ideas. This comparison suggests the importance of passionate engagement as related to knowledge. This article uses a contemporary understanding of the long eighteenth-century passions to argue for how passionate experience and knowing might have occurred through the literary examples of Aphra Behn and Jane Austen.

description: While widely used, generative models pose the challenging
task of deriving and analyzing their underlying distribution.

In this thesis, we focus on two classes of transparent genera-
tive models and present new methods to tackle this task.

Markov Population Processes use Continuous Time Markov
Chains to describe the evolution of populations over time.

Their analysis is often hindered by state-space explosion, tack-
led with deterministic approximation or truncation techniques.

We propose a method, Dynamic Boundary Projection, that
couples an exact stochastic description of a subset of states
and a deterministic approximation that dynamically shifts the
subset across the state space. The resulting finite set of ODEs
is asymptotically exact. We show that our method performs

well in terms of accuracy and runtimes on challenging sys-
tems. We also propose an extension that further reduces the

number of equations while maintaining good accuracy.
Probabilistic Programs leverage the power of programming

languages to define probabilistic models; however, no one-
fit-for-all solution exists to derive the posterior distribution.

We define a family of approximating semantics, Gaussian Se-
mantics, that leverages moment-matching and the approxi-
mation power of Gaussian Mixtures to approximate the joint

probability distribution over program variables. As the num-
ber of the moments matched increases, Gaussian Semantics

tends to the exact semantics. We implement an instance of
Gaussian Semantics that matches the first two order moments
and show that our implementation performs competitively
with respect to other state-of-the-art inference methods and
excellently on two classes of models taken from the literature.

The Literature of Fear in Britain
Creators: name: Csengei, Ildiko
Publisher: name: Fondazione Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia
Year: 2018

description:

This essay reads Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1798 poem, Fears in Solitude, in the context of the letters, memoirs, pamphlets, prints and caricatures that were produced in Britain during the 1797-98 French invasion scare. The essay will explore the ways in which these written and visual products attempted to evoke, express and even suppress feelings of fear, anxiety and terror and aims to understand Coleridge’s ‘fears’ in the context of these feelings. In particular, the essay will examine how Coleridge’s poem responds to the heightened alertness following the Fishguard landing in February 1797. In Fears in Solitude, Coleridge is deeply ambivalent about his stance towards his own country and his attitude towards the French. Reviewers and scholars have long been debating the poem’s pro- or anti-war stance, and whether or not it is part of a contemporary alarmist discourse. Many broadsides, handbills and pamphlets published during this period warned about the horrors of a possible French invasion. They were funded by royalist associations with the sole aim of propagating fear across the nation. While these publications contributed to a widespread discourse of alarm, others, especially the visual culture of the period, challenged and ridiculed such fearmongering. Military and naval accounts and other first-hand narratives gave voice to the feelings pervading this time of psychological warfare, and explored the extent to which the horrors of war did come home intimately to affect the individual body and mind during this time. Read in the context of such contemporary texts, Coleridge’s poem emerges as an artistic discourse designed reflectively to manage his own and the nation’s fears instead of perpetuating the feeling itself.

description: This project namely Automatic Template Tracing Pantograph (ATTP) was designed and fabricated mainly to scale black line templates on white paper with a reasonable accuracy and precision. The Pantograph consists of an IR sensor and a pen along with a pantograph.The pantograph is a mechanical linkage connected in a manner similar to parallelograms and it is used for copying and scaling line drawings. The working principle of an ATTP is based on the fact that a black surface reflects less light/infrared ray than a white surface. It is also a four bar mechanism in which one link is fixed and other links are pivoted and these other links moves according to the movement of the automatic tracing point. In this project, a model of the Automatic Template Tracing Pantograph was designed using PTC Creo Parametric CAD software package and analyzed using Ansys CAE software package putting into consideration the commercial availability of auxiliary components. 3D printing was also adopted as a fabrication method to ensure the modelled parts are precise in dimension.
Extreme events in stochastic transport on networks

description: Extreme events are emergent phenomena in multi-particle transport processes on complex networks. In practice, such events could range from power blackouts to call drops in cellular networks to traffic congestion on roads. All the earlier studies of extreme events on complex networks have focused only on the nodal events. If random walks are used to model transport process on a network, it is known that degree of the nodes determines the extreme event properties. In contrast, in this work, it is shown that extreme events on the edges display a distinct set of properties from that of the nodes. It is analytically shown that the probability for the occurrence of extreme events on an edge is independent of the degree of the nodes linked by the edge and is dependent only on the total number of edges on the network and the number of walkers on it. Further, it is also demonstrated that non-trivial correlations can exist between the extreme events on the nodes and the edges. These results are in agreement with the numerical simulations on synthetic and real-life networks.

description: The dynamics of a population and a resource are investigated in a maximin model based on Brander and Taylor’s stylization of Easter Island, in order to consider the sustainability of the society represented. There are continua of both regular and non-regular maximin solutions, the type depending on the initial conditions. A non-regular maximin steady state corresponds with the steady state in Brander and Taylor’s model. All solutions are time consistent and Pareto optimal. For the regular paths, a partial analytic characterization and a simulation are provided. The non-regular paths involve two regular sections and one degenerate solution in which the maximin constraint is not effective. The high degree of mathematical subtlety of the solution to this ostensibly simple problem calls into question the likelihood of a planner’s being able to devise and follow a program of efficient, sustained development.

description: Coulomb breakup strengths of 11Li into a three-body 9Li+n+n system are studied in the complex scaling method. We decompose the transition strengths into the contributions from three-body resonances, two-body ``10Li+n'' and three-body ``9Li+n+n'' continuum states. In the calculated results, we cannot find the dipole resonances with a sharp decay width in 11Li. There is a low energy enhancement in the breakup strength, which is produced by both the two- and three-body continuum states. The enhancement given by the three-body continuum states is found to have a strong connection to the halo structure of 11Li. The calculated breakup strength distribution is compared with the experimental data from MSU, RIKEN and GSI.

We utilized rapid synthesis followed by high-throughput structural and electrochemical characterization. Using this dual-modality approach, we are able to better classify the amorphous portion of the library, which we found to be the portion with a full-width-half-maximum (FWHM) of 0.42 A$^{-1}$ for the first sharp x-ray diffraction peak. We demonstrate that the FWHM and corrosion resistance are correlated but that, while chemistry still plays a role, a large FWHM is necessary for the best corrosion resistance.

Electromagnetic Emission post Spinning Black Hole-Magnetized Neutron Star Mergers

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: For a binary composed of a spinning black hole (BH) (with mass $\gtrsim 7M_\odot$) and a strongly magnetized neutron star (NS) (with surface magnetic field strength $B_{\rm S,NS}\gtrsim10^{12}$\,G and mass $\sim 1.4M_\odot$), the NS as a whole will possibly eventually plunge into the BH. During the inspiral phase, the spinning BH could be charged to the Wald charge quantity $Q_{\rm W}$ until merger in an electro-vacuum approximation. During the merger, if the spinning charged BH creates its own magnetosphere due to an electric field strong enough for pair cascades to spark, the charged BH would transit from electro-vacuum to force-free cases and could discharge in a time $\gtrsim1~{\rm ms}$. As the force-free magnetosphere is full of a highly conducting plasma, the magnetic flux over the NS's caps would be retained outside the BH's event horizon under the frozen-in condition. Based on this scenario, we here investigate three possible energy-dissipation mechanisms that could produce electromagnetic (EM) counterparts in a time interval of the BH's discharge post a BH-NS merger-induced gravitational wave event: (1) magnetic reconnection at the BH's poles would occur, leading to a millisecond bright EM signal, (2) a magnetic shock in the zone of closed magnetic field lines due to the detachment and reconnection of the entire BH magnetic field would probably produce a bright radio emission, e.g., a fast radio burst, and (3) the Blandford-Znajek mechanism would extract the BH's rotational energy, giving rise to a millisecond-duration luminous high-energy burst. We also calculate the luminosities due to these mechanisms as a function of BH's spin for different values of $B_{\rm S,NS}$.

description: A set of simulations were run to estimate the impact on gross margins due to improvements in cattle breeding efficiency and other management factors in extensive pastoral systems in Western Australia. The output from the simulations was integrated into a statistical model of gross margin as a function of breeding and management variables. The simulations showed that gross margin was an increasing function of breeding rates, but age at first breeding and age at sale of offspring had variable effects on the gross margin of the enterprise. The statistical model illustrated that for a one per cent increase in breeding rates, an increase in gross income of $5274 was possible. The optimal ages at first breeding and sale of offspring were 20.6 months and 10.8 months respectively. Information generated by the simulation and the statistical model allows management to identify the breakeven value, or limit of expenditure, of changes to the system, beyond which the change will not increase enterprise gross margin.

We show that at the first order in the ratio of hopping and interaction amplitudes, the array maps in an effective two level system with energy separation becoming exponentially small in the macroscopic (large N) limit. Decoherence at zero temperature is studied in the limit of weak coupling with phonons. In this case the macroscopic limit is robust with respect to decoherence. Some possible applications in quantum information processing are discussed.

description: Commercial feed blending is a complex process consisting of many potential raw ingredients and final products. The sheer number of daily orders and final products at a typical feed mill means that raw ingredients cannot be mixed to directly produce final products in an economical fashion. As a result, the intermediate production of pellets with pre-specified nutritional content is a necessity that makes the feed blending problem highly nonlinear. A nonlinear approach to feed blending is discussed and results from an empirical application are compared to the results from a sequential linear programming approach common to most feed mills.

In particular, the theta(13) sensitivity is computed for both Phase I superbeams (JHF-SK and NuMI Off-Axis) and next generation long baseline experiments (ICARUS, OPERA and MINOS). It is shown that Phase I experiments cannot reach a sensitivity able to ground (or discourage in a definitive manner) the building of Phase II projects and that, in case of null result and without a dedicated $\barν$ run, this capability is almost saturated by high energy beams like CNGS, especially for high values of the ratio $Δm^2_{21}/|Δm^2_{31}|$.

description: Data from experimental sites at Maindample and Ruffy was extrapolated to a 100 ha paddock on a commercial property. Incorporated into the analyses were risk assessments to allow for sowing failures due to adverse seasonal conditions and price variability for meat and wool during the life of the pasture. Where graziers carried out pasture improvement, the results indicated that changing from Control (low input pastures stocked at a low intensity) to High-input (high stocking rates and fertilizer addition) rather than Medium-input pasture was the more profitable option. In changing to High-input pasture using data from Maindample, a cattle activity using nominal discount rates of 10% per annum required success rates in pasture establishment of ≥ 80% for profitability. For Ruffy cattle, using the same discount rate, the change was profitable for success rates in pasture establishment of ≥ 70%, but lamb and wool activities were only profitable for success rates in pasture establishment of ≥ 90%. Over both sites, Ruffy cattle was the only activity for the change to be profitable for nominal discount rates of 15% per annum, but success rates for pasture establishment would also have to be ≥ 90%. Financial analyses performed on these increases in profitability confirmed that they were feasible because the pay-back periods for deficits incurred during the development and management of the improved pasture were less than the 13 year life of the investments. However, using a contractor to improve the pastures was not feasible because the deficits could not be repaid within the period of the investment. These results support the current low adoption of perennial pastures and have significant implications for catchment management bodies in Victoria and New South Wales where heavy reliance is placed on perennial pastures to improve catchment outcomes.

Quite interestingly, the maximum non-Gaussianity is found for hemispheres centered near the ecliptic poles, which might suggest the presence of some systematic effect. The direction of the asymmetry seems consistent with the findings by Eriksen et al. 2004.

description: This research centres on the establishment of the machine signature for a newly developed indigenous plantain flour pulverize r. In order toestablish this signature, data acquisition toolbox was developed and deployed to retrie ve vibration and temperature data of the pulverizer. The vibrationand temperature data of the machine were retrieved at no load and varying loads for a period of three months. That is data at no load operation testswere collected for five weeks while dat a under varying loads with imposed degradation were as well collected for another period of five weeks. Theretrieved data was modeled and analysed using supervised machine learning via MATLAB to establish the signature of the machin e. The result findingsof the machine signature show increase in temperature and decrease in vibration of the pulverizer and motor as the load incre ased from 5kg to 10kg.Also, when the machine was running on no load, its temperature and vibration were lesser compare to when the machine was running on load. Threemethods were used to analyse the retrieved data including Fourier, linear fitting and polynomial, where Fourier was found as best method among thethree methods used due to the fact that it gave the highest R square valu e and closest value to the retrieved data. From the result obtained, the futuresignature of the machine was predicted and documented using Fourier equation.

description: We study the localized tachyon condensation in their mirror Landau-Ginzburg picture. We completely determine the decay mode of an unstable orbifold $C^r/Z_n$, $r=1,2,3$ under the condensation of a tachyon with definite R-charge and mass by extending the Vafa's work hep-th/0111105. Here, we give a simple method that works uniformly for all $C^r/Z_n$. For $C^2/Z_n$, where method of toric geometry works, we give a proof of equivalence of our method with toric one. For $C^r/Z_n$ cases, the orbifolds decay into sum of $r$ far separated orbifolds.

The production of gauge bosons pairs $W^+W^-$ associated with 0, 1 and 2 jets in proton-proton collisions at LHC

description: We report in this work the production of $W^+W^-$ pairs gauge bosons associated with 0, 1 and 2 jets in proton-proton collisions at LHC with an energy of 14 TeV in the center of mass. These processes are produced at leading-order (LO) and next-to-leading-order (NLO) with QCD corrections in the standard model, using MadGraph5@aMC. For a realistic description of the processes, we match the hard scattering processes with Pythia8 parton showering and hadronization. The obtained events are run through the fast detector simulation, Delphes, which serves to accurately model the ATLAS and CMS detectors and the final state reconstructions that are performed. We analyze the total cross sections according on two cuts in jet transverse momentum p T,j > 20 GeV and p T,j > 100 GeV. We describe the important numerical aspects of our calculations by presenting transverse momentum and rapidity distributions at partonic fixed order and at parton shower for both W and the $W^+W^-$ pair.
Three Loop Top Quark Contributions to the rho Parameter

description: We present results for the three-loop top quark contributions to the rho parameter in the limit of large top quark mass. The simultaneous dependence on the mass of the Higgs boson M_H and the mass of the top quark m_t is obtained from expansions in the range of M_H around m_t and in the limit M_H >> m_t. In combination with the previous result for M_H = 0 the dependence of the rho parameter on the leading Yukawa contributions, i.e. on m_t and M_H, is well under control for all mass values of practical importance. The effects lead to a shift in the W mass in the order of 5 MeV and are relevant for precision measurements at TESLA.

description: Objective: Active safety systems, of which antilock braking is a prominent example, are going to play an important role to improve powered two-wheeler (PTW) safety. This paper presents a systematic review of the scientific literature on active safety for PTWs. The aim was to list all systems under development, identify knowledge gaps and recognize promising research areas that require further efforts. Methods: A broad search using “safety” as the main keyword was performed on Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar, followed by manual screening to identify eligible papers that underwent a full-text review. Finally, the selected papers were grouped by general technology type and analyzed via structured form to identify the following: specific active safety system, study type, outcome type, population/sample where applicable, and overall findings. Results: Of the 8,000 papers identified with the initial search, 85 were selected for full-text review and 62 were finally included in the study, of which 34 were journal papers. The general technology types identified included antilock braking system, autonomous emergency braking, collision avoidance, intersection support, intelligent transportation systems, curve warning, human machine interface systems, stability control, traction control, and vision assistance. Approximately one third of the studies considered the design and early stage testing of safety systems (n. 22); almost one fourth (n.15) included evaluations of system effectiveness. Conclusions: Our systematic review shows that a multiplicity of active safety systems for PTWs were examined in the scientific literature, but the levels of development are diverse. A few systems are currently available in the series production, whereas other systems are still at the level of early-stage prototypes. Safety benefit assessments were conducted for single systems, however, organized comparisons between systems that may inform the prioritization of future research are lacking. Another area of future analysis is on the combined effects of different safety systems, that may be capitalized for better performance and to maximize the safety impact of new technologies.

description: The honeycomb compound $α$-RuCl$_3$ is widely discussed as a proximate Kitaev spin-liquid material. This scenario builds on spin-orbit entangled $j = 1/2$ moments arising for a $t_{2g}^5$ electron configuration with strong spin-orbit coupling $λ$ and a large cubic crystal field. The low-energy electronic structure of $α$-RuCl$_3$, however, is still puzzling. In particular infrared absorption features at 0.30 eV, 0.53 eV, and 0.75 eV seem to be at odds with theory. Also the energy of the spin-orbit exciton, the excitation from $j = 1/2$ to 3/2, and thus the value of $λ$ are controversial. Combining infrared and Raman data, we show that the infrared features can be attributed to single, double, and triple spin-orbit excitons. We find $λ$ = 0.16 eV and $Δ$ =42(4) meV for the observed non-cubic crystal-field splitting, supporting the validity of the $j= 1/2$ picture for $α$-RuCl$_3$. The unusual strength of the double excitation is related to the underlying hopping interactions which form the basis for dominant Kitaev exchange.
