description: The idea of “the book” overflows with extraneous significance: books are presented as windows, gateways, vessels, lighthouses, and gardens. Books speak to us and feed us, and they are a method of escape. The book has long represented much more than a static, hinged, bound, covered object inscribed with words. Even when a book is not performing an elaborate, imaginative function, the word “book” very often signifies the text it holds or even the text’s author: You can open The Bluest Eye or carry Toni Morrison in your bag. Fourteenth-century author Geoffrey Chaucer invokes a “book” by “Lollius” as authoritative source of his Troilus and Criseyde, though no person exists; likewise, to conclude the same text, Chaucer asks directs his project to “go, litel bok, go.” When a book makes an appearance in narrative, it is rarely just a book—without legs, the book moves, and without breath, it lives. This dissertation asks what about the shape of the codex has helped the book become such a metaphorically rich signifier.
 This dissertation attempts to unravel the various threads of meaning that make up the complex “idea of the book.” I focus on one of these threads: the book as a material object. By focusing on how the book as object—not the book as idea—functions within narrative, I argue that we can identify what about the book object enables its metaphorical range. I analyze moments in literature, television, and film when metaphorical functions are assigned, not to an ephemeral, complex idea of the book, but rather to the material realities of the book as an object. In these moments, the codex’s essential, material shape (what I am calling its bookishness) enables metaphorical functioning; I show that, by examining when mundanely physical bindings, pages, covers, and spines initiate metaphorical action, we can identify how the material book has come to mean so much more than itself. Indeed, despite a renewed appreciation for the book as both material and cultural object, books have become so significantly meaningful that attempts to define “the book” evade simplicity, rendering books as everything and nothing at the same time. My inquire explores this complexity by starting with a simple premise: Metaphors are based on some element of physical truth. Though the book has sprouted in a variety of metaphorical directions, many of those metaphors are grounded in the book’s material realities. Acknowledging this, especially in an age of fast-evolving media and bookish fetishism, offers a valuable and novel perspective on how and why books are both semantically rich and culturally valued objects.

p-adic Measures for Reciprocals of L-functions of Totally Real Number Fields
Creators: name: Taha, Razan
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Algebra and number theory

description: We generalize the work of Gelbart, Miller, Pantchichkine, and Shahidi on constructing p-adic measures to the case of totally real fields K. This measure is the Mellin transform of the reciprocal of the p-adic L-function which interpolates the special values at negative integers of the Hecke L-function of K. To define this measure as a distribution, we study the non-constant terms in the Fourier expansion of a particular Eisenstein series of the Hilbert modular group of K. Proving the distribution is a measure requires studying the structure of the Iwasawa algebra.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2009

description: Die Autoren zeigen die Vorzüge von Nutzung und Miteinbezug des lokalen Kulturschaffens bei Stadtmarketingprozessen auf. Im ersten, theoretischen Teil ihrer Arbeit beschreiben sie verschiedene Modelle und Theorien bezüglich der Kreativszene, der Kulturwirtschaft, des Stadtmarketings und der soziokulturelle Animation auf. Mit Bezug auf diese Modelle und über die Verknüpfung mit weiteren Materialien aus dem Diskurs um Populärkultur erarbeiten sie anschliessend eine zeitgemässe Definition des Begriffs Underground. Sie zeigen auf, dass dieser als kreative Szene innerhalb verschiedener Subkulturen zu verstehen ist und eine gesellschaftliche Vorreiterrolle als Motor für die Entwicklungen innerhalb der Subkulturen einer Stadt spielt. Inwiefern Städte diesen Motor bei Stadtmarketingprozessen berücksichtigen können und welche Schlussfolgerungen sich bezüglich seiner Förderung ziehen lassen, wird anhand der Analyse von zwei Projekten im Forschungsteil aufgezeigt. Das Berner Kulturzentrum PROGR und die Erarbeitung der neuen Kulturstrategie in Zug werden anhand von konkreten Problemstellungen überprüft. Im abschliessenden Teil der Arbeit verknüpfen die Autoren die aus der Feldforschung gewonnenen Erkenntnisse mit dem im Vorfeld erarbeiteten Theoriefundus und leiten daraus Empfehlungen für Städte ab. Dabei wird ebenfalls aufgezeigt, welche Ansätze sich für ein mögliches Arbeitsfeld der Soziokulturellen Animation ergeben und welches potentielle Anknüpfungspunkte für weitere Recherchen wären.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2009

description: Die Autoren befassen sich mit der politischen Mandatierung der Profession Soziale Arbeit. Darauf aufbauend setzen sie sich mit politischen Kooperationen zwischen der Profession Soziale Arbeit und Gewerkschaften, welche aufgrund der jeweiligen Wertefundamente hergeleitet werden, auseinander. Gewerkschaften können nach Ansicht der Autoren mögliche Kooperationspartnerinnen für die Profession Soziale Arbeit im Hinblick auf sozialpolitische Interventionen darstellen. Als Kooperationsvoraussetzung müssen zumindest ähnliche Wertfundamente vorhanden sein. Die Aufarbeitung der gewerkschaftlichen Werthintergründe und diejenigen der Profession Soziale Arbeit geben im Vergleich Aufschluss darüber, ob eine Kooperationsbasis gegeben ist. Die Autoren ergründen im Weiteren Chancen und Risiken sowie mögliche Handlungsoptionen solcher Kooperationen mit sozialpolitischer Fokussierung. Es zeigt sich, dass die Chancen gegenüber den Risiken überwiegen und gemeinsame Zielsetzungen wichtiger sind als gemeinsame Werte. Um überhaupt politische Kooperationen eingehen zu können, muss die Profession Soziale Arbeit eine politische Mandatierung haben. Der professionsinterne Diskurs über das respektive ein politisches Mandat wird aufgezeigt. Die Autoren kommen zum Schluss, dass die Profession über das politische Mandat zur Schaffung und Verteidigung von Rahmenbedingungen verfügt, welche im Sinne der Menschenrechte sind.

Information, Pricing, and the Role of Self-Commitment Devices in Consumer Food Purchasing Decisions
Creators: name: Morrissette, Kendra J
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Agricultural economics

description: In this dissertation, I investigate the value of information to consumers, the pricing of chicken, and the value of shopping lists to consumers. My first essay finds that across 14 different product categories and seven types of information, information about price and origin are the most important and information about social and environmental impacts are the least important. Our estimates also suggest consumers are willing to wait a large amount of time to obtain the most vs. least desirable types of information prior to making a non-hypothetical product choice. My second essay relates to price indices used to value chicken in the United States. There were two main price indices commonly used by the industry in recent history: the USDA 12-City Price Index and the Georgia Dock Price. We find that there was a long standing equilibrium relationship between these two price indices that shifted across time. Additionally, our analysis shows that there was a structural break between these two price indices around 2000. After this structural break, the analysis suggests Georgia Dock prices were about $0.047/lb higher than they would have been without the break. Last, my third essay aims to determine the impact of shopping lists on consumer spending and healthy shopping behaviors. We find that after controlling for conscientiousness, consumers willingness-to-accept to give up their shopping list is $5.05, while the equivalent gain to write a shopping list is $3.87. We did not find a significant difference in the healthiness of the purchases made by consumers using a shopping list versus those who shopped without a list.

description: A variety of passenger car-trailer connections exist on the market. One specific type of the connections provides a tensile force measurement capability for the purpose of providing feedback for the semi-autonomous trailer’s control system. Semi-autonomous trailer is an innovative technology that can encourage drivers to use smaller vehicles for towing, which will contribute to restoration and improvement of urban infrastructure (NAE Grand Challenges for Engineering, 2020). The vehicle-semi-autonomous trailer connection’s safety concerns depend on multiple factors, but start with either a mechanical, or an electrical failure. The topic of safety of passenger car-semi-autonomous trailer connections is not well present in literature. The connections’ mechanical failures under load are in the focus of this work. The author addressed the following research question and the sub question. How do the existing “passenger car-trailer” connections with tensile force measurement capability compare to one another under load in terms of the possible failure? What is the failure mode of each of the compared connections? The author selected three prototypes from the literature, built three-dimensional (3D) models in SolidWorks 2018 and simulated the tests in the program’s add-on in accordance with the requirements of an industry standard on real-life testing of specific vehicle systems. The author compared the three prototypes by a number of different parameters. The research showed that none of the three existing prototypes are public road-ready in terms of safety. The study can be useful for future designers of passenger-car-semi-autonomous trailer connections.

A Framework for the Development and Validation of Phenomenologically Derived Cochlear Implant Stimulation Strategies
Creators: name: Gallardo, Andres Felipe Llico
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School

Subjects: Neurosciences not elsewhere classified

description: Cochlear implants (CI) are sensory neuroprostheses capable of partially restoring hearing loss by electrically stimulating the auditory nerve to mimic normal hearing conditions. Despite their success and ongoing advances in both hardware and software, CI patients can still struggle to understand speech, most notably in complex auditory settings, also referred to as the cocktail party problem. Efforts to develop new CI algorithms to overcome this challenge rely on CI simulators and vocoders to test with normal hearing (NH) patients. However, recent studies have suggested that these tools fail to reproduce the stimuli perceived by CI patients. It is therefore critical to develop tools capable of producing better representations of the stimuli as perceived by CI patients. Thus, this work proposes a framework that incorporates physiological models of the peripheral auditory nerve. Using these models, the framework generates stimulations that elicit a neural response at the auditory nerve closer to that observed in NH conditions. Stimulations generated by the framework were evaluated by performing a vowel identification task. However, the task was performed by a classifier trained using deep learning techniques instead of a CI patient. These results give insight into how the framework could be applied for the development and validation of CI stimulation strategies.

description: The Food-Energy-Water (FEW) nexus conceptualizes the interactions and tension between production and consumption of food, energy, and water. With increasing uncertainties due to climate change, there is a need to address these tensions within the nexus and better comprehend the existing interdependencies and tradeoffs. Water integrity – considering both water availability and quality – is of critical concern within the FEW nexus. Thus, it is important to develop robust decision-making strategies using a FEW nexus lens. This study focuses on addressing water integrity concerns through FEW nexus assessment using an agricultural watershed in northeastern Indiana, with predominantly corn-soybean rotations, as a pilot site. Historical and futuristic climate and hydrological data were used for hydrological modeling using SWAT to quantify water quantity, quality, and crop production. Scientific literature values for farm machinery fuel requirements and their carbon emissions were implemented to obtain values based on the implemented agronomic practices. Results of this study provide methodologies and information that can be implemented to evaluate water resources management, as well as inform policymaking for more sustainable agricultural management practices.

Partizipation In Der Kommunalen Raumplanung Und Mögliche Perspektiven Für Die Soziokulturelle Animation
Creators: name: Sulzer, Dario
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2009

description: Der Autor befasst sich mit der Partizipation in der kommunalen Raumplanung und fragt nach den Perspektiven für die Soziokulturelle Animation in diesem Arbeitsfeld. Das Raumplanungsgesetz verlangt, dass die Bevölkerung bei Raumplanungsprozessen partizipieren kann. Da Partizipation ein wichtiges Prinzip der Soziokulturellen Animation ist stellt sich die Frage, inwiefern sie einen Beitrag in partizipativen Planungsverfahren leisten kann. Um Raumplanung und Partizipation miteinander in Beziehung bringen zu können, hat der Autor mittels Literaturrecherche die Funktionsweise und spezifischen Kennzeichen der Schweizer Raumplanung und der Begriff der Partizipation im Kontext der Planung erläutert. Demnach ist nur mit einem frühzeitigen Einbezug der gesamten Bevölkerung und der Berücksichtigung ihrer Bedürfnisse eine inhaltliche Optimierung von Planungsvorhaben möglich. Mittels Experteninterviews hat der Autor das Partizipationsverständnis der Raumplaner/innen erforscht. Partizipation ist für die meisten Raumplaner/innen Mittel zum Zweck, während die Soziokulturelle Animation Partizipation vornehmlich als Ziel versteht. Die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit erfordert daher nicht nur ein Verständnis für die Anliegen der anderen Profession, sondern auch eine Klärung über Zweck und Ziel von Partizipation. Als Animatorin, Übermittlerin, Übersetzerin und Anwältin unter Beizug ihrer Methodenkompetenz kann die Soziokulturelle Animation einen Beitrag zur qualitativen Verbesserung von informellen Partizipationsprozessen in der Raumplanung leisten.

Neurophysiological Mechanisms of Speech Intelligibility under Masking and Distortion

description: Difficulty understanding speech in background noise is the most common hearing complaint. Elucidating the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying speech intelligibility in everyday environments with multiple sound sources and distortions is hence important for any technology that aims to improve real-world listening. Using a combination of behavioral, electroencephalography (EEG), and computational modeling experiments, this dissertation provides insight into how the brain analyzes such complex scenes, and what roles different acoustic cues play in facilitating this process and in conveying phonetic content. Experiment #1 showed that brain oscillations selectively track the temporal envelopes (i.e., modulations) of attended speech in a mixture of competing talkers, and that the strength and pattern of this attention effect differs between individuals. Experiment #2 showed that the fidelity of neural tracking of attended-speech envelopes is strongly shaped by the modulations in interfering sounds as well as the temporal fine structure (TFS) conveyed by the cochlea, and predicts speech intelligibility in diverse listening environments. Results from Experiments #1 and #2 support the theory that temporal coherence of sound elements across envelopes and/or TFS shapes scene analysis and speech intelligibility. Experiment #3 tested this theory further by measuring and computationally modeling consonant categorization behavior in a range of background noises and distortions. We found that a physiologically plausible model that incorporated temporal-coherence effects predicted consonant confusions better than conventional speech-intelligibility models, providing independent evidence that temporal coherence influences scene analysis. Finally, results from Experiment #3 also showed that TFS is used to extract speech content (voicing) for consonant categorization even when intact envelope cues are available. Together, the novel insights provided by our results can guide future models of speech intelligibility and scene analysis, clinical diagnostics, improved assistive listening devices, and other audio technologies.

description: Multiparty computation refers to a scenario in which multiple distinct yet connected parties aim to jointly compute a functionality. Over recent decades, with the rapid spread of the internet and digital technologies, multiparty computation has become an increasingly important topic. In addition to the integrity of computation in such scenarios, it is essential to ensure that the privacy of sensitive information is not violated. Thus, secure multiparty computation aims to provide sound approaches for the joint computation of desired functionalities in a secure manner: Not only must the integrity of computation be guaranteed, but also each party must not learn anything about the other parties' private data. In other words, each party learns no more than what can be inferred from its own input and its prescribed output.
 This thesis considers secure two-party computation over arithmetic circuits based on additive secret sharing. In particular, we focus on efficient and secure solutions for fundamental functionalities that depend on the equality of private comparands. The first direction we take is providing efficient protocols for two major problems of interest. Specifically, we give novel and efficient solutions for private equality testing and multiple variants of secure wildcard pattern matching over any arbitrary finite alphabet. These problems are of vital importance: Private equality testing is a basic building block in many secure multiparty protocols; and, secure pattern matching is frequently used in various data-sensitive domains, including (but not limited to) private information retrieval and healthcare-related data analysis. The second direction we take towards a performance improvement in equality-based secure two-party computation is via introducing a generic functionality-independent secure preprocessing that results in an overall computation and communication cost reduction for any subsequent protocol. We achieve this by providing the first precise functionality formulation and secure protocols for replacing original inputs with much smaller inputs such that this replacement neither changes the outcome of subsequent computations nor violates the privacy of sensitive inputs. Moreover, our input-size reduction opens the door to a new approach for efficiently solving Private Set Intersection. The protocols we give in this thesis are typically secure in the semi-honest adversarial threat model.

Cephennodes ovatus

description: Cephennodes ovatus Jałoszyński, 2007: 203,
a secondary junior homonym of Cephennodes ovatus (Nietner), is here replaced with Cephennodes ovatides nom. n.
Although the subgenus Aculeodes Jałoszyński & Nomura (2009) was diagnosed based on female characters, the aedeagi of the type species of Aculeodes, C. ovatus, and C. vegrandis Stevanović, 2009 show similarities that suggest their close relationships. The parameres are free, as in Cephennodes s. str., and the apical group of dorsodistal projections is inserted on a common tubular shaft. These features are added to the diagnosis of Aculeodes, and C. ovatus and C. vegrandis are here placed in Cephennodes (Aculeodes).
Species of the large genus Cephennodes are morphologically uniform, except for remarkable male dimorphic characters in some species groups, and in general, females are extremely difficult or even impossible to identify. The lectotype of C. ovatus is externally unremarkable, but the aedeagus is unique and not possible to confuse with copulatory organs of any other illustrated species.

Design of a superconducting DC wind generator
Creators: name: Liu, Yingzhen
Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2018

description: Offshore wind energy has received a lot of interest as one important renewable energy source. One promising way to reduce the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) of offshore wind energy is by developing large wind farms and turbines with large ratings. The average wind turbine size has reached 4.2 MW in 2015 and turbine sizes of 6-8 MW have already been seen in the wind market. Even larger turbine sizes are managing to pave their way from studies to market. The trend towards larger ratings and more offshore installations asks for innovations in power generation, which requires lower weight and cost, smaller size, higher efficiency and reliability. Due to the high current-carrying capability and no DC losses of the superconductors, superior power to weight/volume ratio with high efficiency of a superconducting generator can be achived. Moreover, direct current (DC) transmission has been put forward for the offshore wind farms mainly due to the overall economic benefit, as they are located far away from the land. Hence, this thesis introduces a DC generation and transmission scheme which consists of superconducting DC wind generators and superconducting DC cables as a possible technical solution. This enables a highly efficient and compact generator and in addition a new and also very efficient generator connection scheme at DC.
The work presented in the thesis focuses on the feasibility study and design of a superconducting DC wind generator. In part, an optimisation method will be developed by taking superconducting tape length (cost), mass, volume, and efficiency into a simplified objective function. All necessary analytical equations will be derived to connect the electromagnetic design and mechanical design with properties of the superconducting tapes and iron materials. To increase the design accuracy, analytical equations to calculate flux density distribution in the superconducting DC generator will be verified by finite element analysis. Not only the active parts but also inactive structural materials will be included in the mass calculation. Based on the design method, the design of a 10 kW superconducting DC generator demonstrator will be described. The losses of the demonstrator and its commutation, torque and efficiency at different wind speeds will be addressed. As first steps towards the demonstrator, properties of key components, superconducting tapes, iron materials and a superconducting coil, will be tested and characterized. Moreover, a preliminary test of a superconducting coil at 77 K will be completed. In order to identify the potientials that a large scale superconducting DC wind generator could offer, a 10 MW superconducting DC generator will be designed and a comparison with conventional synchronous generators will be made. Additionally, this work will also discuss the savings of HTS tapes by optimizing outer rotor diameter, pole pair number, and superconducting coil height, which contribute to a more competitive alternative to conventional generators.

description: In order to answer the question of what might constitute a compositional praxis, one must consider several interrelated factors. First, the basis of a Marxist understanding of the relationship between music (or the arts in general) in relation to human society, and what that looks like today. This in turn will lead to our second consideration: the role played by music in society, and how a composer may utilise this. Then we will focus on how we use music to communicate, and how music communicates with people, namely: is it a tool to describe what is familiar? Or is it a tool to challenge them, and therefore raise their consciousness? Then finally we will explore how can music interact with political parties or movements. Is this relationship beneficial, or does it limit the potential of the composer? With this contextual background, the commentary will then discuss works featured in a portfolio of original compositions, describing their political context and highlighting historic works which were influential in the composition process. The commentary will explore the ways in which the composer created the works and tried to connect them to the political question at hand.

Democracy, Rhetoric, Authoritarianism: Democratic Rhetoric in Authoritarian Thailand

Comparative government and politics

description: This is a study assessing the democratic rhetoric from authoritarian rulers. It does so as part of a larger comparative politics effort appraising the state of democracy in the world as well as part of area studies’ interest in better understanding the politics of individual states, in this case, Thailand. Scholars’ current method of analyzing the democratic rhetoric of authoritarians seems to swing somewhere between skepticism and dismissiveness. Although a reasonable response to the evident hypocrisy between deed and word, this thesis proceeds in the belief that social science can offer more than cynicism.
Methodologically, the chapters employ conceptual analysis to study concepts as they are diffused, borrowed, stretched, or otherwise contested. It considers as data the occurrence of the words “elections,” “rights,” “freedom,” “liberty,” “the people,” as well as others, but most notably “democracy.” Parts of this work are historical and descriptive, detailing the incidents and contexts of democratic rhetoric in authoritarian systems. Other parts are prescriptive, proposing a method by which to assess the democratic words of dictators. Case studies on particular periods of authoritarian rule in Thailand demonstrate what can be learned with the various methods.

One of the primary objectives of this study is to persuade readers that authoritarians’ democratic rhetoric is worth studying. A second objective is to convince readers of the utility of using the etymological definition of democracy as “the people rule” for assessing democratic rhetoric. Finally, the study aims to expose and develop the image of democracy in authoritarian Thailand. The central argument of this work is that democratic rhetoric in authoritarian systems is evidence of an ideology challenging Western, liberal democracy from within and that the failure to recognize this impairs both international and domestic democracy promotion efforts.
