description: Literature from previous years of research studies reveals that the effect of masonry infills is significant and cannot be neglected. This study is aimed at the seismic vulnerability assessment of masonry infilled reinforced-concrete frame structures in developing countries, taking Pakistan as a case study. Typical two-dimensional reinforced-concrete frames with and without infill panels, and with infill openings are considered. A three-strut model is employed for analytical modelling of infill panels. Compressive strength of a typical Pakistani brick masonry prism is evaluated for modelling the equivalent strut. It is concluded that the study’s masonry infilled structural configurations give better performance than bare frame structures. Openings in masonry panels, however, increase the seismic vulnerability of infilled structures.

Trichotoca edentula

description: Trichotoca edentula Jaschhof & Jaschhof sp. n. (Figs 1, 2) Diagnosis. This species differs from Trichotoca fraterna (see below) as follows. The necks of the mesal antennal flagellomeres are longer than the nodes (Fig. 1A), but not quite as long as in fraterna. The clypeus is asetose. The maxillary palpus has a vestigial, asetose basal segment and is thus seemingly 4-segmented (Fig. 1C). The thoracic pleura are asetose. The costa and its cover with setae are not interrupted, i.e. the costal break is missing (Fig 1D). Male terminalia: The gonocoxites are wider than long, tapered towards the base, and have a shallow, broadly U-shaped emargination ventrally (Fig. 2A); the gonocoxal apodemes are apparently not connected by a transverse bridge; the gonostylus is wide basally, tapered in the distal half, and has a rounded, unmodified apex (Fig. 2A); the ejaculatory apodeme is strongly sclerotized, long, rod-like, very slightly widened apically, and completely mantled by the tegmen (Fig. 2B); the tegmen is membranous, large, as long as the gonocoxites, tapered in the distal half, and has innumerable tiny, hook-like spines apicoventrally and -laterally (Fig. 2B); the sternite 10 is very weak and sparsely pubescent. Body length is subequal to wing length, 3.2–4.5 mm. The female is unknown. Variation. CuA1 either coalesces at one point with CuA2 and the longitudinal vein (Fig. 1D), or joins the longitudinal vein somewhat distal to that juncture. The apex of CuA2 is either strongly (Fig. 1D) or only slightly reflexed. Etymology. The name is from the Latin, edentulus, toothless, referring to the outline of the gonostyli. Types. Holotype. Male, Australia, Tasmania, Warra Long Term Ecological Research Site, Mt Weld (43.07S, 146.67E), 100 m a.s.l., in mixed forest, 27 April 2001, by Malaise trap (sample FT#199), N. Doran & R. Bashford [in AMS].

description: A new framework for the computational simulation of problems arising in continuum me- chanics is presented. It is unified in the sense that it can describe all three major phases of matter within the same set of equations. It is able to represent inviscid fluids, Newtonian and non-Newtonian viscous fluids, elastic and plastic solids, and reactive species. These materials are presented with a variety of equations of state, and there is a clear methodology for extending the framework to more exotic materials using other constitutive equations. It is capable of accurately modeling interfaces between regions occupied by different phases, and by the vacuum. The problem of impact-induced detonation in an elastoplastic confiner is one that incorpo- rates the whole range of aforementioned material types, representing a challenge to existing frameworks. This new framework is shown to accurately and efficiently solve this problem. The framework comprises a modification and extension of the Godunov-Peshkov-Romenski (GPR) model of continuum mechanics, along with a new set of operator-splitting-based numerical solvers to allow for the efficient solution of the problems that it is put to, and a new Riemann ghost fluid method for accurate simulation of material interfaces. In addition to this work, novel mathematical analyses of the structure of the GPR equations - and the numerical methods currently used to solve them - are presented in this study. This new framework presents a range of benefits: the conceptual work required to implement a computational simulation involving many different components is greatly reduced, saving time and allowing for greater specialization of computational techniques. This has the po- tential to streamline development of simulation software by reducing the number of different systems of equations that require solvers, and cutting down on the amount of theoretical work required, for example in the treatment of interfaces in multimaterial problems.

description: Two cadmium complexes, {[Cd2(2,5-tda)2(ip)4]·4H2O}n (1) and {[Cd2(4,4′-obb)2(ip)2·H2O]·H2O}n (2) (2,5-tda = thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid, 4,4′-obb = 4,4′-oxybisbenzoic acid, ip = 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1, 10]-phenanthroline), were synthesized and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray analysis revealed that 1 is a dinuclear complex with the 2,5-tda anion connecting two Cd ions in a μ1-η1:η0/μ1-η1:η0 coordination mode. Each dinuclear complex is further connected with neighboring complexes via hydrogen-bonding interactions. Compound 2 displays a 2-D layer structure with opened windows occupied by crystallographic water molecules. The layers are further packed via hydrogen-bonding interactions. Luminescent properties for 1 and 2 are also investigated in the solid state at room temperature.

Here's what Australia's cellular network scene could look like by 2020
Creators: name: Branch, Philip
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: TPG Telecom Ltd has announced it intends to become Australia's fourth mobile network operator, along with Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. TPG Telecom Ltd has purchased spectrum licenses for A$1.26 billion and will spend another A$600 million building the network infrastructure. However, it has emphasised it will not be competing across the whole Australian market, just 80% of the population. So what will the mobile network environment look like in a few years time? It is reasonable to make some informed forecasts. If the market can indeed support a fourth network, the network scene is likely to be dominated by four carriers whose main offering is 4G mobile communications standard. However, significant inroads by Wi-Fi based services can be expected. Also, “Internet of Things” devices may constitute a revenue stream to the four main operators, but that may well be undermined by emerging linked technologies.

description: Four dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes were synthesized by reaction of [MoO2(acac)2] with thiosemicarbazones derived from 5-allyl-2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (1), 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde (2), 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (3), or 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4). The ligands were coordinated to molybdenum as tridentate ONS donors. X-ray crystallography showed that the distorted octahedral coordination of molybdenum is completed by methanol (D) in 1a, 3a, and 4a or H2O in 2a. The molecular structures of 1, 3, and 4, and the complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Binding of the ligand and complexes with calf thymus DNA were investigated by UV, fluorescence titrations, and viscosity measurements. Gel electrophoresis revealed that all the complexes can cleave pBR322 plasmid DNA. The cytotoxic properties of the complexes against human colorectal (HCT 116) cell line showed strong antiproliferative activities in relative order 4a > 3a > 1a > 2a with IC50 values of 1.6, 4.0, 4.8, and 6.7 μM, respectively. The complexes exhibited more activity than the standard reference drug, 5-fluorouracil (IC50 7.3 μM). These studies show that dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes have potential use in chemotherapy.
A new cultural revolution: the commercialisation of culture in China
Creators: name: Fitzgerald, John
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: While landmark cases of artistic liberalisation or repression have been appearing with their customary regularity in China over recent years, and receiving due attention among foreign scholars, a more profound development in the organisation and marketing of all manner of cultural services appears to have passed almost without notice. A small but significant portion of the cultural network in China has become cornmercialised in the sense that cultural production units have come to assume responsibility for their own profits and losses, and authority over their activities has been transferred from state and collective management to small groups and private individuals. The effects of this development have been felt in scattered areas for a few years in the form of the improved motivation, productivity and livelihood of artists working under the new regime, and in a private-sector rural cultural revival, but its political ramifications have only recently gained recognition even within China.

description: Dans le cadre de notre formation à la HEPL, nous avons participé pendant une année à la mise en place d’un projet commun de recherche en sciences appelé PEERS (Projet d’Étudiants et d’Enseignants-chercheurs en Réseaux Sociaux), afin d’étudier le rôle des interactions langagières dans le cadre de situations de débats argumentatifs en classe. Ce projet a été mis en oeuvre à la fois par l’Unité d’Enseignement et de Recherche (UER) des Mathématiques et des Sciences de la nature de la HEPL et par l’ESPE (École Supérieure du Professorat et de l’Éducation) en Bretagne. La direction du projet revient aux enseignants et chercheurs Corinne Marlot (HEPL) et Jean-Marie Boilevin (ESPE). Le but de cette recherche est d’étudier les gestes professionnels du professeur et les outils qu’il mobilisera dans le milieu (méthodes d’enseignement, supports didactiques, conditions de travail, environnement), qui vont permettre aux élèves de produire une argumentation scientifique de qualité, dans une situation de débat. Nous avons conçu et observé des leçons de sciences qui suivaient le modèle de la démarche d’investigation dans nos classes de stage en Suisse romande et dans celles de nos collègues rennais en France. Après avoir étudié la littérature, les principaux défis de ce travail basé sur une étude de cas ont été de mettre en place des leçons de sciences contenant un débat de telle sorte à récolter d’une part des données observables pour répondre à nos hypothèses d’a priori. D’autre part, l’enjeu a été de parvenir à établir un lien entre l’action de l’enseignante et les productions des élèves qui rendraient compte de l’impact de la relation enseignant-élèves sur la création d’énoncés explicatifs par ces derniers. Nous expliquerons comment lors d’un débat en classe de sciences, le type de langage utilisé par l’enseignant à travers l’action conjointe a grande influence sur la qualité d’argumentation des apprenants.

description: Two cadmium complexes, {[Cd2(2,5-tda)2(ip)4]·4H2O}n (1) and {[Cd2(4,4′-obb)2(ip)2·H2O]·H2O}n (2) (2,5-tda = thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid, 4,4′-obb = 4,4′-oxybisbenzoic acid, ip = 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1, 10]-phenanthroline), were synthesized and characterized by IR, elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray analysis revealed that 1 is a dinuclear complex with the 2,5-tda anion connecting two Cd ions in a μ1-η1:η0/μ1-η1:η0 coordination mode. Each dinuclear complex is further connected with neighboring complexes via hydrogen-bonding interactions. Compound 2 displays a 2-D layer structure with opened windows occupied by crystallographic water molecules. The layers are further packed via hydrogen-bonding interactions. Luminescent properties for 1 and 2 are also investigated in the solid state at room temperature.

description: Scènes à faire: What is it? Generally speaking, it’s when certain things are so commonplace, and so naturally associated with the treatment of the subject, that everyone needs to be able to use them in order to also write, or talk, or deal with that subject. What have courts found to be scènes à faire? Lots of different things, in lots of different contexts. Some are easy to picture: If you’re going to have an underwater world, having sand dollars as money, oyster shells as plates, and things like that—that makes some sense. Aquaman rides a seahorse; other underwater people might ride seahorses. Or the idea that superheroes wear capes and masks— you can understand that that’s something common to the genre that everyone should be free to use. Similarly, if you are setting something in World War II, you might have a German beer hall. If you are setting something in a small town in the American South, you might have a country music bar with a gritty atmosphere and music playing from a jukebox; it’s going to be playing a sad song, and then dancing will ensue. More things may happen after that, but the setting could have common elements.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: In this work we investigate the response on THz radiation of a FET device based on an individual carbon nanotube conductance channel. It was already shown, that the response of such devices can be either of diode rectification origin or of thermoelectric effect origin or of their combination. In this work we demonstrate that at 77K and 8K temperatures strong bolometric effect also makes a significant contribution to the response.

description: Publication productivity, as measured by the number of papers, has been regarded as one of the main indicators of reputation of countries and institutions. Nevertheless, the relationship among research publications, economic growth and World Wide Web in ASEAN countries is still unclear. The main intention of this study was to identify publication productivity among ASEAN and the world’s top ten countries in the last 16 years (1996-2011). This study also aimed at finding the relationship among publication, gross domestic product (GDP) and internet usage. Furthermore, the publication trend in the 10 first Malaysian universities was evaluated for the same periods. Scopus database was used to find the overall documents, overall citations, citations per document and international collaboration from 1996 to 2011 for each country. The World Bank database (World Data Bank) was used to collect the data for GDP and the number of internet users. Moreover, to evaluate 10 top Malaysian universities, the number of published articles, conferences, reviews, and letters for the same periods was collected. The results of this study showed significant differences among ASEAN and top 10 countries regarding publication productivity. Moreover, a positive and significant relationship was observed between indices, GDP and internet usage for these countries. Surprisingly, international collaboration had a significant and negative relationship with economic growth. Malaysia had fewer citations per document (7.64) and international collaboration (36.9%) among ASEAN countries. In conclusion, international collaboration between academic institutes and researchers is influenced by economic growth and access to internet in the countries. Furthermore, publication trends in ASEAN countries are promising. However, policy makers and science managers should try to find different ways to increase the quality of the research publication and to raise citation per document.

The structure of ant–plant ecological networks: Is abundance enough?

description: Knowledge of the mechanisms that shape biodiversity is essential to understand the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of interacting species. Recent studies posit that most of the organization of mutualistic networks is shaped by differences in species abundance among interacting species. In this study, we examined the mutualism involving plants with extrafloral nectaries and their associated ants. We show empirically that the difference in abundance among ants on vegetation partially explains the network structure of mutualistic interactions and that it is independent of ant species compositions: an ant species that is abundant usually interacts with more plant species. Moreover, nested networks are generated by simple variation in ant abundance on foliage. However, in ant–plant mutualistic networks, nestedness was higher than in networks describing the occurrence of ants on plants without a food resource. Additionally, the plant and ant species with the highest number of interactions within these networks interacted more among themselves than expected under the assumption of an abundance-based, random mixing of individuals. We hypothesize that the dominance of these ant species occurs because these ants are able to outcompete other ant species when feeding on extrafloral nectaries and because of the presence of ecophysiological adaptations to utilize liquid food.

Importance of interaction frequency in analysis of ant-plant networks in tropical environments

description: Several studies have shown that qualitative (binary) ant-plant networks are highly nested in tropical environments, in which specialist species (with fewer interactions) are connected with generalists (with the most interactions) in cohesive subgroups. Interactions occur in both qualitative and quantitative networks, however, how their frequency may structure the nestedness in ecological networks involving these organisms is, we believe, unknown. Based on this perspective, we used nestedness analysis to address the effect of interaction frequency on antplant networks (n = 14 networks). Unlike binary networks, quantitative networks are often significantly non-nested. In addition, species with a higher interaction frequency have a higher number of links, indicating that these species are possibly more abundant and/or competitive. Moreover, different biological parameters can change the nature of ant-plant interactions, as a plant can be a good resource for one ant and a ‘bad’ resource for another. Thus, this suggests a new perspective for the study of interaction networks in the tropics, since species with lower interaction frequency are not necessarily subsets of species with higher frequency, and consequently generate the non-nested pattern in quantitative networks.
