title: Dispute Resolution under the Principal Irish Forms of Building Contract
Creators: name: Cunningham, Tony
Publisher: name: Technological University Dublin
Year: 2015

description: The construction industry is known to be litigious (Latham, 1994). This is hardly surprising given the industry’s fragmented nature in which project teams comprising an extensive network of employers, designers and constructors are brought together to deliver once-off projects, following which, the organisation is almost always disbanded. The short term objectives of the various groupings are often competing and occasionally incompatible. For example, many employers will wish to minimise costs in developing a project, designers may resist pressures on budgets in order to safeguard their ‘brand’, and the commercial imperative of maximising profit will drive contractors towards charging what the market will bear. It is not difficult to see disputes breaking out in these circumstances.
title: Response of Academics to Demands for Change in Engineering Education

Publisher: name: Technological University Dublin
Year: 2009

description: This paper attempts to show what academics and other stakeholders think about academic change in an Institute of Technology in Ireland as this HEI attempts to respond to a rapidly changing external s becoming a university and moving to a new campus on a green field site. It is a summary of aspects of a doctoral thesis undertaken by an experienced academic that set out to explore how the unprecedented challenges now facing higher education internationally might best be met in the Dublin Institute of Technology. It is insider research and this paper identifies and examines barriers and enablers to change in this HEI. In doing this a story evolves that is rich and insightful and may have application for other HEIs internationally.
title: Is Functional Contextualism the Appropriate Methodology for Examining the Management of Conflict of Interest in the Real Estate Valuation Process in the Irish Property Profession?
Creators: name: Colley, Lorna
name: Scott, Lloyd
Publisher: name: Technological University Dublin
Year: 2018

description: In examining the research question of the best practice for managing conflict of interest in the real estate valuation process within Ireland a number of research methodologies were considered. Review of literature in the field supports a pragmatic approach to the central issues of the formation of an individual’s ethical viewpoint and behaviours, the nature of the ethical challenges faced within the real estate valuation process and the possible frameworks that may influence an individual’s behaviour going forward. Within the pragmatic realm a more focused lens of Functional Contextualism is considered. Functional contextualists seek to predict and influence events using empirically-based concepts and rules (Biglan & Hayes, 1996; Hayes, 1993b; Gifford & Hayes, 1999). This paper examines the suitability of functional contextualism as the primary research methodology for researching conflict of interest in the real estate valuation process within Ireland. Emphasis is placed on highlighting the areas of the approach that fit and also those that require omission due to their lack of suitability to the subject research problem.

Keywords: conflict of interest, real estate, pragmatism, functional contextualism.
title: Measuring smoking-related attentional bias with a change detection task
Creators: name: Barker, Gordon T.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2011

description:
Despite well known health risks, cigarette smoking remains very prevalent in the United States. In addition, those who attempt to quite are very likely to relapse. Cognitive predictors have not been well examined to date, despite evidence from the Incentive- Sensitization model of addiction that cognitive processes play a large role in relapse and continued addictive behavior (Robinson & Berridge, 1993). To address if the cognitive adaptations involved in the Incentive-Sensitization model are permanent or semi-permanent, this current study examined the abilities of current smokers (n = 15), former smokers (n = 13), and never smokers (n = 15) to detect changes involving both smoking-related stimuli and neutral stimuli using a flicker paradigm. Contrary to the hypotheses, the current smokers did not exhibit a bias in attention toward smoking-related stimuli, and no group differed in change-detection capabilities when compared to any other group. Possible reasons for the unexpected findings are presented, as well as discussion about the construction of an effective change-detection task.

title: Class struggle rather than cooperation: class, gender, sexuality and the congressional investigation of the National Labor Relations Board, 1939-1941
Creators: name: Green, Chris J.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2011

description:
In examining the attack on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) in the late 1930s, historians have devoted substantially more attention to the role played by the American Federation of Labor (AFL) than that played by congressional conservatives. Historians have noted that congressional conservatives portrayed NLRB officials as biased against business and in favor of unions, but they have overlooked the fundamental basis of the disagreement between these conservatives and the NLRB and its supporters. This thesis examines the attack on the NLRB by the congressional committee headed by Congressman Howard Smith of Virginia from December 1939 to December 1940. The fundamental dispute between the conservative majority on the Smith Committee on the one hand and NLRB officials and the pro-NLRB minority on the committee on the other hand centered on the role of class as a factor in NLRB policy. Smith Committee conservatives objected to NLRB officials' belief that the NLRB existed to help unions reduce the inequality in power inherent in relations between workers and employers. This thesis also discusses how beliefs about gender, and occasionally sexuality, colored Smith Committee conservatives' claims about the role of class in NLRB policy. Smith Committee conservatives attacked the passion of NLRB officials to help labor unions empower working-class Americans with language suggesting that such passion was motivated by an excess of un-masculine emotion.

Bifurcations and dynamics in convection with temperature-dependent viscosity in the presence of the O(2) symmetry

description: We focus the study of a convection problem in a 2D setup in the presence of the O(2) symmetry. The viscosity in the fluid depends on the temperature as it changes its value abruptly in an interval around a temperature of transition. The influence of the viscosity law on the morphology of the plumes is examined for several parameter settings, and a variety of shapes ranging from spout to mushroom shaped is found. We explore the impact of the symmetry on the time evolution of this type of fluid, and find solutions which are greatly influenced by its presence: at a large aspect ratio and high Rayleigh numbers, traveling waves, heteroclinic connections and chaotic regimes are found. These solutions, which are due to the symmetry presence, have not been previously described in the context of temperature dependent viscosities. However, similarities are found with solutions described in other contexts such as flame propagation problems or convection problems with constant viscosity also under the presence of the O(2) symmetry, thus confirming the determining role of the symmetry in the dynamics.

title: Hysteresis in periodic chemical reactions from the perspective of non-equilibrium thermodynamics
Creators: name: Tsegelskiy, V.G.
Publisher: name: Scientific Research Centre "MachineStructure"
Year: 2020

description: A comparison of the processes occurring in periodic chemical reactions and heterogeneous catalysis is presented. It is shown that all these processes from the standpoint of thermodynamics obey the general laws of states change of the non-equilibrium thermodynamic systems. These laws were previously identified for physical processes. In such systems transitions from a stationary state with a lower entropy production to a stationary state with a larger entropy production and in the opposite direction exhibit hysteresis. These transitions occur rather abruptly through the realization of unsteady intermediate states with an unstable structure.

Sex, drug courts, and recidivism
Creators: name: Dandan, Doria Nour
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Research studies have identified gender differences in the drug abusing patterns and treatment needs of men and women. Even so, studies on the drug court model have not assessed drug court effectiveness across sex. Using secondary data collected from the Ada County Drug Court, the recidivism rates of drug court participants (n=259) and probationers (n=235) were analyzed. Drug court participants were found to be less likely to recidivate compared to probationers, which supports previous research on drug court effectiveness. Regression analyses failed to find an interaction between group membership and sex, thereby indicating that the effect of the drug court did not differ across sex. These findings suggest that, despite differences in drug abuse patterns, the treatment needs of both men and women were being addressed in the drug court.

description: We present a comprehensive macroscopic thermodynamic study of the quasi-one-dimensional (1D) $s = \tfrac{1}{2}$ frustrated spin-chain system linarite. Susceptibility, magnetization, specific heat, magnetocaloric effect, magnetostriction, and thermal-expansion measurements were performed to characterize the magnetic phase diagram. In particular, for magnetic fields along the b axis five different magnetic regions have been detected, some of them exhibiting short-range-order effects. The experimental magnetic entropy and magnetization are compared to a theoretical modelling of these quantities using DMRG and TMRG approaches. Within the framework of a purely 1D isotropic model Hamiltonian, only a qualitative agreement between theory and the experimental data can be achieved. Instead, it is demonstrated that a significant symmetric anisotropic exchange of about 10% is necessary to account for the basic experimental observations, including the 3D saturation field, and which in turn might stabilize a triatic (three-magnon) multipolar phase.

description: We report magnetoresistance data in magnetic semiconductor multilayers, which exhibit a clear step-wise behavior as a function of external field. We attribute this highly non-trivial step-wise behavior to next-nearest-neighbor interlayer exchange coupling. Our microscopic calculation suggests that this next-nearest-neighbor coupling can be as large as 24% of the nearest-neighbor coupling. It is argued that such unusually long-range interaction is made possible by the quasi-one-dimensional nature of the system and by the long Fermi wavelength characteristic of magnetic semiconductors.

Developing a dining customer satisfaction measurement and response tool
Creators: name: Distefano, Mike
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2007

description: There are many customers and guests who depart a hotel or its dining and entertainment facilities with a "bad taste" in their mouths due to customer service situations that either went wrong completely, or simply did not meet those particular guests' expectations. This frequently results in the seeking by guests of better service experiences by going to the competition, which ultimately represents lost or foregone revenue. These are situations from which management could have actually benefited. It is merely a matter of construing them as opportunities to consummate long-term customer relationships. This misconception is often due to ignorance or oversight on the part of management regarding what customers' true perceptions of their service experience are, mostly resulting from inadequate customer service satisfaction measurement systems. The purpose of this paper is to develop a dining customer satisfaction measurement and response tool. This pro-paper will accomplish this objective through the compilation of information obtained through various forms of research into the area, including field interviews with hospitality managers and customers. It will report findings on current experimental and secondary data on the topic. It will then take a closer look at the flaws, oversights, and consequences of the continued acceptance of customer satisfaction auditing processes that merely meet (or even fall short of) the current hospitality industry standard.

title: Variable check-in time: Raising room revenue with multiple daily check-in times
Creators: name: Kaplan, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2007

description: An exploration of a new theory of hotel room valuation and pricing called “Variable Check-In Time”. The theory holds that hotels could increase room revenue by instituting multiple daily check-in times, rather than the typical, universal 3:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m. room-day. In doing so, hotels could accommodate guests for more hours per day, thus raising the room night’s salable value. The paper presents the concept of the room-hour and of room-hour utility, making a quantitative case for increased room revenue on utility-maximization grounds. A model for the optimization of room-hour utility is presented, as well as a demonstration of that model – using historic check-in time data from a large Las Vegas strip hotel.
Competing Alignments of Nematic Liquid Crystals on Square Patterned Substrates

description: A theoretical analysis is presented of a nematic liquid crystal confined between substrates pat- terned with squares that promote vertical and planar alignment. Two approaches are used to eluci- date the behavior across a wide range of length scales: Monte Carlo simulation of hard particles and Frank-Oseen continuum theory. Both approaches predict bistable degenerate azimuthal alignment in the bulk along the edges of the squares; the continuum calculation additionally reveals the possi- bility of an anchoring transition to diagonal alignment if the polar anchoring energy associated with the pattern is sufficiently weak. Unlike the striped systems previously analyzed, the Monte Carlo simulations suggest that there is no "bridging" transition for sufficiently thin cells. The extent to which these geometrically patterned systems resemble topographically patterned substrates, such as square wells, is also discussed.

Creators: name: Mittelstadt, Patricia
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2008

description: Currently, there is no academic standard or format that spas use to rate themselves against other spas, not is there one for spas to rate themselves on improvements based on previous surveys.  This paper will offer a format for each individual spa and groups of spas, to find what the clientele’s expectations are.  It will also determine if the spa is meeting or exceeding these expectations, and will create a format for all spas to use, based on the SERQUAL analysis developed by Parasuraman, Berry, and Zeithaml (1991).  This tool will allow spas to survey their customers to see if their offerings are what is expected, and where they need to improve.  Once completed, a group of spas could analyze and compare results.

description: This paper presents cosmological results from the final data release of the WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey. We perform full analyses of different cosmological models using the WiggleZ power spectra measured at z=0.22, 0.41, 0.60, and 0.78, combined with other cosmological datasets. The limiting factor in this analysis is the theoretical modelling of the galaxy power spectrum, including non-linearities, galaxy bias, and redshift-space distortions. In this paper we assess several different methods for modelling the theoretical power spectrum, testing them against the Gigaparsec WiggleZ simulations (GiggleZ). We fit for a base set of 6 cosmological parameters, {Omega_b h^2, Omega_CDM h^2, H_0, tau, A_s, n_s}, and 5 supplementary parameters {n_run, r, w, Omega_k, sum m_nu}. In combination with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), our results are consistent with the LambdaCDM concordance cosmology, with a measurement of the matter density of Omega_m =0.29 +/- 0.016 and amplitude of fluctuations sigma_8 = 0.825 +/- 0.017. Using WiggleZ data with CMB and other distance and matter power spectra data, we find no evidence for any of the extension parameters being inconsistent with their LambdaCDM model values. The power spectra data and theoretical modelling tools are available for use as a module for CosmoMC, which we here make publicly available at http://smp.uq.edu.au/wigglez-data . We also release the data and random catalogues used to construct the baryon acoustic oscillation correlation function.

We also outline the physical arguments behind this conjecture, which involve the claim that all states in a nonlinear sigma model can be identified as "momentum" and "winding" states in the large volume limit.

The Physical activity patterns and constraints of diverse female college students
Creators: name: Minkel, Kathleen Victoria
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Diverse college aged females from a public university in the southwest were asked to participate in an online survey to determine their constraints to physical activity, as well as their current activity level. The groups were compared to establish the differences among the minority groups. Raymore, Crawford, and Godbeys Hierarchical Model of Constraints was used as a framework when creating the survey. Data analysis showed only one significant difference among the racial/ethnic groups, when looking specifically at the intrapersonal, interpersonal, and structural constraints categories. Hispanic women differed significantly from Caucasian women in their perception of interpersonal constraints on their physical activity. This finding should be further investigated to completely understand the cultural aspects that may lead to interpersonal constraints. No other significant differences among the racial/ethnic groups and their perceptions of physical activity constraints were found. No differences were found among the racial/ethnic groups and their physical activity level. The research suggests physical activity level and constraint differences among ethnic groups may be less prevalent among populations with similar socio-economic status, education, and motivation.

description: The 3-torus (T^3) FLRW model better fits the nearly zero large-scale auto-correlation of the WMAP CMB sky maps than the infinite flat model. The T^3 model's WMAP parameters imply approximately equal-redshift topological lensing at z \sim 6. We investigate observational strategies for rejecting the T^3 solution or providing candidate topologically lensed galaxy pairs. T^3 holonomies are applied to (i) existing z \sim 6 observations and (ii) simulated observations, creating multiply connected catalogues. Corresponding simply connected catalogues are generated. Each catalogue is analysed using a successive filter method and collecting matched quadruples. Quadruple statistics between the multiply and simply connected catalogues are compared. The expected rejection of the hypothesis, or detection of candidate topologically lensed galaxies, is possible at a significance of 5% for a pair of T^3 axis-centred northern and southern surveys if photometric redshift accuracy is σ(\zphot) < 0.01 for a pair of nearly complete 100 deg^2 surveys with a total of > 500 galaxies over 4.3 < z < 6.6, or for a pair of 196 deg^2 surveys with > 400 galaxies and σ(\zphot) < 0.02 over 4

description: Als Folge der Corona-Pandemie haben viele Unternehmen und Organisationen Home-Office eingeführt bzw. ausgeweitet. Dadurch ergeben sich für die Beschäftigten neue Chancen, ihren Arbeitsalltag selbstständig zu gestalten. Mehrere Studien weisen jedoch darauf hin, dass Frauen meistens stärker unter der doppelten Belastung leiden, da die Umstellung auf Home-Office häufig zum Wiederbeleben von traditionellen Geschlechterrollen führt. Man braucht spezielle Strategien und Instrumente, um die Work-Life-Balance im Home-Office optimal zu gestalten. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war es, genderspezifische Belastungs- und Erfolgsfaktoren für die Gestaltung von Home-Office zu identifizieren, um praktische Handlungsempfehlungen für Unternehmen, Frauen und Politik zur Optimierung der Arbeitsleistung, Work-Life-Balance und Zufriedenheit im Home-Office abzuleiten. Zur Erreichung der Zielsetzung wurde eine Onlinebefragung im Zeitraum von Dezember 2021 bis März 2022 in Deutschland durchgeführt. Die Stichprobe bestand aus 247 Personen, davon 183 weiblich und 64 männlich, im Alter zwischen 19 und 71 Jahren. Abgefragt wurden die wahrgenommenen Arbeitsgestaltungskompetenzen, individuelle Vereinbarungen mit der Führungskraft, Unternehmenskultur, wahrgenommene kollegiale Unterstützung sowie Beziehung zu Kollegen. Überprüft wurde der jeweilige Einfluss dieser Variablen auf die wahrgenommene Zufriedenheit, Stressempfinden sowie eigene Leistung bei der Arbeit im Home-Office. Mittels einer multiplen Regressionsanalyse konnte gezeigt werden, dass die drei Faktoren Arbeits-platzgestaltungskompetenzen, individuelle Vereinbarungen mit der Führungskraft und die Beziehung zu den Kollegen einen signifikanten Einfluss auf alle untersuchten abhängigen Variablen aufweisen. Das heißt, eine hohe Ausprägung der Faktoren wirkt sich auf eine höhere Zufriedenheit, bessere Leistung sowie geringeres Stresserleben aus. Den stärksten Einfluss hat hierbei die Arbeitsgestaltungskompetenz der Probanden. Es wurden auch wesentliche genderbedingte Unterschiede festgestellt: Frauen berichten im Durchschnitt von einer höheren Zufriedenheit und einem geringeren Stressempfinden. Eine ANOVA zeigt zudem einen signifikanten Unterschied zwischen Frauen und Männern bei der Wahrnehmung der eigenen Leistungsfähigkeit. Frauen schätzen demnach ihre eigene Leistungs-fähigkeit im Home-Office signifikant höher ein als Männer. Auf Grundlage der ermittelten Faktoren diskutiert der Beitrag spezifische Handlungsempfehlungen für Unternehmen, Frauen und Politik, die Beschäftigten im Home-Office dabei helfen, besser mit den damit einhergehenden Belastungen umzugehen.

description: We present deep Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 slitless spectroscopic observations of the distant cluster Cl J1449+0856. These cover a single pointing with 18 orbits of G141 spectroscopy and F140W imaging, allowing us to derive secure redshifts down to m_140~25.5 AB and 3sigma line fluxes of 5*10^(-18) erg/s/cm^2. In particular, we were able to spectroscopically confirm 12 early-type galaxies in the field up to z~3, 6 of which in the cluster core, which represents the first direct spectroscopic confirmation of passive galaxies in a z=2 cluster environment. With 140 redshifts in a ~6 arcmin^2 field, we can trace the spatial and redshift galaxy distribution in the cluster core and background field. We find two strong peaks at z=2.00 and z=2.07, where only one was seen in our previously published ground-based data. Thanks to the spectroscopic confirmation of the cluster ETGs, we can now re-evaluate the redshift of Cl J1449+0856 at z=2.00, rather than z=2.07, with the background overdensity being revealed to be sparse and "sheet"-like. This presents an interesting case of chance alignment of two close yet unrelated structures, each one preferentially selected by different observing strategies. With 6 quiescent or early-type spectroscopic members and 20 star-forming ones, Cl J1449+0856 is now reliably confirmed to be at z=2.00. The identified members can now allow for a detailed study of galaxy properties in the densest environment at z=2.

description: Mycotoxin contamination in certain agricultural systems have been a serious concern for human and animal health. Mycotoxins are toxic substances produced mostly as secondary metabolites by fungi that grow on seeds and feed in the field, or in storage. The food-borne Mycotoxins likely to be of greatest significance for human health in tropical developing countries are Aflatoxins and Fumonisins. Chili pepper is also prone to Aflatoxin contamination during harvesting, production and storage periods.Various methods used for detection of Mycotoxins give accurate results, but they are slow, expensive and destructive. Destructive method is testing a material that degrades the sample under investigation. Whereas, non-destructive testing will, after testing, allow the part to be used for its intended purpose. Ultrasonic methods, Multispectral image processing methods, Terahertz methods, X-ray and Thermography have been very popular in nondestructive testing and characterization of materials and health monitoring. Image processing methods are used to improve the visual quality of the pictures and to extract useful information from them. In this proposed work, the chili pepper samples will be collected, and the X-ray, multispectral images of the samples will be processed using image processing methods. The term "Computational Intelligence" referred as simulation of human intelligence on computers. It is also called as "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) approach. The techniques used in AI approach are Neural network, Fuzzy logic and evolutionary computation. Finally, the computational intelligence method will be used in addition to image processing to provide best, high performance and accurate results for detecting the Mycotoxin level in the samples collected.

description: Coronaviruses comprise a large group of emergent human and animal pathogens, including the highly pathogenic SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV strains that cause significant morbidity and mortality in infected individuals, especially the elderly. As emergent viruses may cause episodic outbreaks of disease over time, human samples are limited. Systems biology and genetic technologies maximize opportunities for identifying critical host and viral genetic factors that regulate susceptibility and virus-induced disease severity. These approaches provide discovery platforms that highlight and allow targeted confirmation of critical targets for prophylactics and therapeutics, especially critical in an outbreak setting. Although poorly understood, it has long been recognized that host regulation of virus-associated disease severity is multigenic. The advent of systems genetic and biology resources provide new opportunities for deconvoluting the complex genetic interactions and expression networks that regulate pathogenic or protective host response patterns following virus infection. Using SARS-CoV as a model, dynamic transcriptional network changes and disease-associated phenotypes have been identified in different genetic backgrounds, leading to the promise of population-wide discovery of the underpinnings of Coronavirus pathogenesis.

On the pattern of black hole information release

description: We propose a step towards a resolution to black hole information paradox by analyzing scattering amplitudes of a complex scalar field around a Schwarzschild black hole. The scattering cross section reveals much information on the incoming state but exhibits flux loss at the same time. The flux loss should be temporary, and indicate mass growth of the black hole. The black hole should Hawking-radiate subsequently, thereby, compensating for the flux loss. {By examining the purity issue}, we comment on the possibility that information bleaching may be the key to the paradox.

Fully Perturbative Calculation of $nd$ Scattering to Next-to-next-to-leading-order
Creators: name: Vanasse, Jared
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: We introduce a new technique to calculate perturbative corrections to neutron-deuteron ($nd$) scattering that does not require calculation of the full off-shell scattering amplitude. Its relation to the more familiar partial-resummation technique is explained. Also included is a calculation of the SD-mixing term that occurs at next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) in pionless effective field theory $\mathrm{EFT}_{\notπ}$\xspace. Using the new technique with the SD-mixing term a complete strictly perturbative phase-shift analysis of $nd$ scattering is performed up to NNLO including eigen-phases and mixing angles. This is compared to potential model calculations and good agreement is found with the eigen-phases and some of the mixing angles at low energies.
