Unattended
Creators: name: Brand, Melissa Robin
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: Unattended is a memoir that chronicles the events of the author’s senior year in high school, when she was engaged in an illicit relationship with a man 20 years her senior.  She explores the family dynamics, dysfunction and secrets that gave rise to her involvement in this relationship, as well as the protective factors and people that enabled her to ultimately extricate herself from it.  The book attempts to dispel the often false dichotomy of the victim/perpetrator paradigm by examining the nuanced circumstances and motivations and needs that can lead to maladaptive behavior.
Product innovation in a vertically differentiated model

Subjects: SECS-P/02 Politica economica

description: We study the licensing incentives of an independent input producer owning a patented product innovation which allows the downstream firms to improve the quality of their final goods. We consider a general two-part tariff contract for both outside and incumbent innovators. We find that technology diffusion critically depends on the nature of market competition (Cournot vs. Bertrand). Moreover, the vertical merger with either downstream firm is always privately profitable and it is welfare improving for large innovations: this implies that not all profitable mergers should be rejected.
The propredicative clitic in Italo-romance: a micro-parametric variation approach
Creators: name: Lorusso, Paolo
name: Moro, Andrea
Publisher: name: Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali
Year: 2020

description: In this paper we describe the distribution of propredicative clitics in nominal copular constructions across different Italo-romance varieties. Different lexical items are recruited from the lexicon to cliticize the predicative NP, all of them either lack inflection or show a neuter inflection: the ‘uninflected’ status of propredicatives, in fact, is an available option among the categorical status of different pronouns. The characteristics of propredicatives across Italo-Romance confirms the predictions of the analysis of Moro (1997: 1) copular constructions allow only one agreement projection (agreement with the subject of the copular sentence and not with the predicate), 2) the proforms are generated in N0 rather than a D0. This analysis challenges the ‘definite’ analyses of romance l-clitics (which date back to Postal 1966): such proposals often invoke the parallel between clitics and definite articles as a reason to treat clitics as belonging to the category D. We will also show that apparent counterexamples found in some varieties in which the proforms agree in gender and number with the nominal predicates rely on semantic restrictions and ellipsis. We will finally update the proposal of Moro (1997) in terms of the labelling algorithm (Moro 2009; Chomsky 2013; Rizzi 2016): the N0 cliticization involved in the propredicative items allows a D0 in situ within the small clause which label the small clause, which otherwise will be unlabelled and imply a crash in the derivation.

To investigate the validity of this assumption, this paper compares the stomach content of cod and whiting obtained during the ICES stomach sampling project in the North Sea with the species and size composition of the prey in trawl catches. The models describing the dependence of the composition of the stomach content on the IBTS catches explained about 40% of the total variation in stomach content composition and revealed significant negative switching by the predators. These results may be caused by prey switching or indicate that the suitability model is not an appropriate model for describing prey choice by the predators.
Determination of the Far-Infrared Cosmic Background Using COBE/DIRBE and WHAM Data

description: Determination of the cosmic infrared background (CIB) at far infrared wavelengths using COBE/DIRBE data is limited by the accuracy to which foreground interplanetary and Galactic dust emission can be modeled and subtracted. Previous determinations of the far infrared CIB (e.g., Hauser et al. 1998) were based on the detection of residual isotropic emission in skymaps from which the emission from interplanetary dust and the neutral interstellar medium were removed. In this paper we use the Wisconsin H-alpha Mapper (WHAM) Northern Sky Survey as a tracer of the ionized medium to examine the effect of this foreground component on determination of the CIB. We decompose the DIRBE far infrared data for five high Galactic latitude regions into H I and H-alpha correlated components and a residual component. We find the H-alpha correlated component to be consistent with zero for each region, and we find that addition of an H-alpha correlated component in modeling the foreground emission has negligible effect on derived CIB results. Our CIB detections and 2 sigma upper limits are essentially the same as those derived by Hauser et al. and are given by nu I_nu (nW m-2 sr-1) < 75, < 32, 25 +- 8, and 13 +- 3 at 60, 100, 140, and 240 microns, respectively. Our residuals have not been subjected to a detailed anisotropy test, so our CIB results do not supersede those of Hauser et al. We derive upper limits on the 100 micron emissivity of the ionized medium that are typically about 40% of the 100 micron emissivity of the neutral atomic medium. This low value may be caused in part by a lower dust-to-gas mass ratio in the ionized medium than in the neutral medium, and in part by a shortcoming of using H-alpha intensity as a tracer of far infrared emission.

Intervention in agreement and case assignment: the role of doubling
Creators: name: Moreno Marchis, Mihaela

Publisher: name: Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali
Year: 2020

description: In this paper we will show that there are two types of languages which involve different mechanisms in obviating Minimality Violations/Defective Intervention and Case opacity: Agreement languages of Punjabi/Icelandic-type with default agreement and Movement languages of Romanian/Spanish-type with phi-feature movement in form of cliticization. On the basis of rich empirical data we show that Case Opacity represents a case of defective intervention in agreement as the features of the phases introducing the oblique arguments block the agreement with the verb. Potential counterexamples can be accounted for by assuming that (oblique) clitics, in some languages, do not always move to T, so that the phi-features of the arguments they introduce still intervene and give rise to default agreement (as in Vafsi and some other Western Iranian varieties). Our approach has theoretical implications for the theory of case, cliticization and linear order.

description: A duality transformation in quantum field theory is usually established first through partition functions. It is always important to explore the dual relations between various correlation functions in the transformation. Here, we explore such a dual relation to study quantum phases and phase transitions in an extended boson Hubbard model at 1/3 (2/3) filling on a triangular lattice. We develop systematically a simple and effective way to use the vortex degree of freedoms on dual lattices to characterize both the density wave and valence bond symmetry breaking patterns of the boson insulating states in the direct lattices. In addition to a checkerboard charge density wave (X-CDW) and a stripe CDW, we find a novel CDW-VBS phase which has both local CDW and local valence bond solid (VBS) orders. Implications on QMC simulations are addressed. The possible experimental realizations of cold atoms loaded on optical lattices are discussed.

Divergent phonological behaviour in heritage speakers of Sardinian
Creators: name: Lai, Rosangela
Publisher: name: Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali
Year: 2020

description: In the literature on heritage speakers, phonology is often described as a comparatively well-preserved component of language competence. It does seem to be the case that heritage speakers, even when not fully proficient in some areas of grammar, sound superficially native-like as far as phonology is concerned. But does this picture hold up under closer scrutiny? This contribution deals with Sardinian, a language with an especially complex interplay of a stratified phonological lexicon and various phonological rules at word-boundaries. We will consider younger speakers of this minority language, who have experienced a break in the parental transmission in favour of the dominant language (Italian) and see whether they are able to master the finer aspects of Sardinian phonology. Fieldwork results will be presented showing that a drastic simplification of the system is under way, probably under the influence of Italian itself.

description: Optimal mechanical impact absorbers are reusable and exhibit high specific energy absorption. The forced intrusion of liquid water in hydrophobic nanoporous materials, such as zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), presents an attractive pathway to engineer such systems. However, to harness their full potential, it is crucial to understand the underlying water intrusion and ex-trusion mechanisms under realistic, high-rate deformation conditions. Herein, we report a critical increase of the energy absorption capacity of confined water-ZIF systems at elevated strain rates. Starting from ZIF-8 as proof-of-concept, we demonstrate that this attractive rate depend-ence is generally applicable to cage-type ZIFs but disappears for channel-containing zeolites. Molecular simulations reveal that this phenomenon originates from the intrinsic nanosecond timescale needed for critical-sized water clusters to nucleate inside the nanocages, expediting water transport through the framework. Harnessing this fundamental understanding, design rules are formulated to construct effective, tailorable, and reusable impact energy absorbers for challenging new applications.

The effect of misfit on morphology and kinetics of plate shaped precipitates
Creators: name: Sagoe-Crentsil, Kwesi Kurentsir
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Lattice misfit and its effect on the morphology, interfacial structure and kinetics of plate shaped precipitates are investigated in this study. The 7-Ag₂Al phase in the Al-Ag system was used as the reference system and its misfit was controlled by ternary additions of Mg and Cu. The addition of 0.S1 at% Mg was found to increase the misfit from 0.8% for the binary to 1.11%. Cu additions on the other hand, reduced the misfit by 0.38% for Cu concentrations up to 0.51 at%. Electron probe microanalysis showed that the Mg atoms preferentially partition to the 7 phase whereas Cu atoms partition equally between the precipitate and matrix phases. Direct transmission election rnicroscope observations were made on the interface structure in both the equilibrated state and during precipitate dissolution. The interface structure in the ternary Mg alloy consisted of a hexagonal network of partial dislocations which essentially remained the same before and during dissolution. A single array of a/2<110> dislocations was observed in the binary and ternary Cu systems prior to dissolution. This unit array transformed to a stable hexagonal network structure having the equilibrium spacing at the onset of dissolution and remained throughout the period of dissolution. The thinning and shortening kinetics of the precipitate plates were at least five times slower than the rates for volume diffusion control in all three systems. This interfacial inhibition has further been confirmed by the consistent fall below equilibrium values of the interface concentration as determined from electron probe microanalysis. This suggests the operation of a ledge migration mechanism. A mechanism of acquiring ledge/dislocations at the interface is used as a basis to correlate the observed kinetics with misfit and ledge migration at the precipitate-matrix interphase. The mechanism involves co-ordinated motion of sets of dislocations in the network which rids the surface of the highest steps thereby accomplishing dissolution.
The semantics of the italian adverb “magari”: a threshold-based approach to its polysemy
Creators: name: D'Antuono, Nicola
Publisher: name: Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali
Year: 2020

description: The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the several uses of the Italian adverbial magari (the optative, short answer, hypothetical, concessive and imperative uses) can be led back to one basic core meaning. This core meaning is taken to account for all the uses of the item without reference to a grammaticalization process, but only through syntactic and pragmatic operations such as ellipsis, scope variability and pragmatic interpretation on the part of the hearer. Magari first appears in Italian optative constructions, which are characterised by the presence of a scalar reading along an epistemic dimension. The expansion of the uses of magari is explained in terms of its additive properties (i.e. need for other propositions to be true within the Common Ground) plus a requirement that the propositional content be higher than a contextually given threshold along an epistemic scale.

description: Computationally efficient and accurate quantum mechanical approximations to solve the many-electron Schrödinger equation are at the heart of computational materials science. In that respect the coupled cluster hierarchy of methods plays a central role in molecular quantum chemistry because of its systematic improvability and computational efficiency. In this hierarchy, coupled cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) is one of the most important steps in moving towards chemical accuracy and, in recent years, its scope has successfully been expanded to the study of insulating surfaces and solids. Here, we show that CCSD theory can also be applied to real metals. In so doing, we overcome the limitation of needing extremely large supercells to capture long range electronic correlation effects. An effective Hamiltonian can be found using the transition structure factor--a map of electronic excitations from the Hartree--Fock wavefunction--which has fewer finite size effects than conventional periodic boundary conditions. This not only paves the way of applying coupled cluster methods to real metals but also reduces the computational cost by two orders of magnitude compared to previous methods. Our applications to phases of lithium and silicon show a resounding success in reaching the thermodynamic limit, taking the first step towards a truly universal quantum chemical treatment of solids.

Furthermore, only partial thermalization is achieved in the produced matter as a result of its fast expansion.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Age samples of juvenile and adult fishes collected in 1995-96 in the coastal zone and those obtained by observers from fishing vessels ( 1009 ind. in total), as well as long-term data of field observations of turbo distribution l!Ild behaviour obtained by divers in light underwater suits at the depths of 0.5-7 m were used as material for this work. It is shown that the coastal zone of the sea to the depths of 7-8 m is a part of turbo distribution area where young fish distributes till maturity and adult fish retains before spawning and between laying next eggs batch. The age of maturity associates with annual growth rate decrease by 40-50% as compared to the previous annulum. Formation of the annulum (hyaline zone) starts from September. Winter growth zone width is comparable to a summer opaque zone. Aaverage daily increment of otolith amounts to 1.8 µ in fishes up to 7 cm in length; 2.6 µ in fishes up to 10 cm; 3.0 µ in fishes up to 12 cm; fishes of 1+ age are of 7-12 cm in length in June-­July.

description: Let $k$ be a totally real number field. For every odd $n\geq 3$, we construct a Dedekind zeta motive in the category $\MT(k)$ of mixed Tate motives over $k$. By directly calculating its Hodge realisation, we prove that its period is a rational multiple of $π^{n[k:\Q]}ζ^*_k(1-n)$, where $ζ^*_k(1-n)$ denotes the special value of the Dedekind zeta function of $k$. We deduce that the group $\Ext^1_{\MT(k)} (\Q(0),\Q(n))$ is generated by the cohomology of a quadric relative to hyperplanes. This proves a surjectivity result for certain motivic complexes for $k$ that have been conjectured to calculate the groups $\Ext^1_{\MT(k)} (\Q(0),\Q(n))$. In particular, the special value of the Dedekind zeta function is a determinant of volumes of geodesic hyperbolic simplices defined over $k$.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Capelin is usually considered to be a one-time spawijer in fisheries management, although it has long been known that, in particular. ,female fish may survive the immediate stress associated with the spawning process. Long:-tenn survivability and growth of post-:-spawnirig capelin have, however, been, difficult to quantify. Here, we address these questions using an experimental approach. Live post-spawning capelin have been successfully held under laboratory conditions for one year at the Norwegian .Institute of Fisheries and Aquaculture. Sexually mature fish were sampled at the 􀇣pawning sites in Aprill 997 and subjected to a controlled environment in the laboratory until they regenerated fully ripe gonads in May 1998. The preliminary report outlines the surviv$ility and growth potential of post-spawning capelin on a seasonal basis. Results show that both male and female fish display rapid growth during autumn and winter. Further, almost 60 % of female fish have an innate capacity to survive spawn_ing and regenerate gonads the following year. Thus, given favourable conditions, female capelin may survive to spawn a second time and, thereby, contribute significantly to the spawning stock.

Constraining the equation of state of supra-nuclear dense matter from XMM-Newton observations of neutron stars in globular clusters

description: We report on the detailed modelling of the X-ray spectra of three likely neutron stars. The neutron stars, observed with XMM-Newton are found in three quiescent X-ray binaries in the globular clusters: omega Cen, M 13 and NGC 2808. Whether they are accreting at very low rates or radiating energy from an accretion heated core, their X-ray spectra are expected to be those of a hydrogen atmosphere. We use and compare publicly available hydrogen atmosphere models, with constant and varying surface gravities to constrain the masses and radii of the neutron stars. Thanks to the high XMM-Newton throughput, and the accurate distances available for these clusters, using the latest science analysis software release and calibration of the XMM-Newton EPIC cameras, we derive the most stringent constraints on the masses and radii of the neutron stars obtained to date from these systems. A comparison of the models indicate that previously used hydrogen atmosphere models (assuming constant surface gravity) tend to underestimate the mass and overestimate the radius of neutron stars. Our data constrain the allowed equations of state to those which concern normal nucleonic matter and one possible strange quark matter model, thus constraining radii to be from 8 km and masses up to 2.4 M$_\odot$.

Feeding conditions and trophic relations of herring and sprat were compared with those for similar· periods during the first half of 1970s. Indices of food similarity of small herring up to 15 cm in length and sprat were highest in summer (up to 83%) and significantly decreased by October below,40% level. Difference of food spectra in September-October and transfer to feeding upon Mysides, Amphipodes arid fish has a crutial importance for herring feeding after significant grazing of zooplankton in summer. At the same time indices of food similarity of two herring groups up to 15 cm and 16-25 cm in length are still high (above 60%) in October, except 1997 when massive sprat consumption by average size herring was observed. Young sprat consumption by herring in October 1997 in Subdivision 26 varied from 20 to 80 thous. t which evidenced significant predation of sprat by herring.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Each year in August-September joint Norwegian-Russian 0-group surveys are carried out in the Barents Sea and adjacent waters. Based on data from these surveys, the ambient temperature and salinity for several species were calculated for the Barents Sea and the Svalbard waters as well as the total area. Estimates of mean length were made for each interval in the environmental variables in order to study the variation in 0-group length with temperature and salinity. Differences within and between years in mean lengths were discussed in relation to spatial distribution and overall abundance.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Samples of common whelks Buccinum undatum were collected from eleven locations around the coasts of England and Wales. Maturity.in males was assessed using the ratio of penis length to total shell height. Sizes at 50% maturity (Hso) and patterns of size at maturity between locations were examined by logistic modelling.. Samples fell into three groups: those from the south coast of England, where whelks matured at around 55 mm shell height; those from the Thames Estuary, where maturity was poorly determined in relation to size; and those from Wales and the east coast of England, where whelks became mature at around 71 mm shell height. Estimates of H50 for individual sampling locations varied from 42 mm to 74 mm shell height. There was a strong trend of increasing size at maturity with decreasing summer water temperature, but this only partially accounted for the differences among locations. The findings are discussed in relation to setting minimum landing sizes to safeguard spawning stocks.

description: Articulatory organization of geminates in Hungarian


It is traditionally assumed that geminates undergo degemination when being flanked by another consonant in Hungarian. As in Hungarian duration is considered to be the main acoustic cue to the singleton-geminate opposition, it appears valid to study the phonetic implementation of this process in the acoustic domain. However, previous acoustic analyses lead to inconclusive results on the status of the “degeminated” consonant, while articulatory data on Japanese singletons and geminates imply that it is revealing to study degemination on the level of gestural timing. The present study compared gestural organization of geminates, degeminated and singleton consonants in
heterorganic C-clusters, and in intervocalic positions. We obtained EMA data from 10 female speakers of Hungarian (aged 27.7 ys). Consonant durations, plateau durations and tongue rise data showed that degemination does not yield realizations equivalent to intervocalic singletons, and geminates and singletons in clusters showed equally slower tongue rise than that observed in intervocalic singletons.

description: Predictive wavefront control is an important and rapidly developing field of adaptive optics (AO). Through the prediction of future wavefront effects, the inherent AO system servo-lag caused by the measurement, computation, and application of the wavefront correction can be significantly mitigated. This lag can impact the final delivered science image, including reduced strehl and contrast, and inhibits our ability to reliably use faint guidestars. We summarize here a novel method for training deep neural networks for predictive control based on an adversarial prior. Unlike previous methods in the literature, which have shown results based on previously generated data or for open-loop systems, we demonstrate our network's performance simulated in closed loop. Our models are able to both reduce effects induced by servo-lag and push the faint end of reliable control with natural guidestars, improving K-band Strehl performance compared to classical methods by over 55% for 16th magnitude guide stars on an 8-meter telescope. We further show that LSTM based approaches may be better suited in high-contrast scenarios where servo-lag error is most pronounced, while traditional feed forward models are better suited for high noise scenarios. Finally, we discuss future strategies for implementing our system in real-time and on astronomical telescope systems.

description: In this paper, by using the Composition-Diamond lemma for non-associative algebras invented by A. I. Shirshov in 1962, we give Gröbner-Shirshov bases for free Pre-Lie algebras and the universal enveloping non-associative algebra of an Akivis algebra, respectively. As applications, we show I.P. Shestakov's result that any Akivis algebra is linear and D. Segal's result that the set of all good words in $X^{**}$ forms a linear basis of the free Pre-Lie algebra $PLie(X)$ generated by the set $X$. For completeness, we give the details of the proof of Shirshov's Composition-Diamond lemma for non-associative algebras.
title: Humanitarians on the frontier : identity and access in the socio-political space of voluntary service
Creators: name: Gordon-Gibson, Alasdair
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews

description: Failures of international humanitarian response to crisis are a prominent feature of contemporary debate, with most analysis focusing on the application of the core humanitarian principles of neutrality, impartiality and independence, and the diminishing space in which these principles are able to function. This thesis argues that the space for humanitarian action has not diminished but a changed socio-political environment has meant that access to trusted representation in a space for discourse has altered. As an agent for re-direction the study examines whether the phenomenon of ‘voluntary service’ provides a more shared, less contested and more universally accepted identity for expression of the humanitarian purpose and its practices than the current discourse achieves. Through comparative analysis of humanitarian expressions across differing contexts of emergency response and drawing on research from relief agency archives as well as from personal experiences in these environments of complex emergency, the study explores opportunities that arise from understandings of a more dynamic space to house the humanitarian identities. It argues that by recognising and accepting its social and its political identity, humanitarian response can be auxiliary to authority in times of crisis as well as a place for constructive challenge. It is from within the interactions of this socio-political space and its iterations of communal needs that voluntary service draws its identity and its strength. The thesis focuses on considerations of how notions of ‘trust’ frame this community, and how variant understandings of good faith and intent influence the construction of a legitimate, protected space for independent voluntary action in complex emergencies. By considering the nature of the humanitarian relationship on the frontiers of politics and power, opportunities are located for a place in which a more inclusive, less contested discourse on the humanitarian identity might emerge.

description: Presented is a study of the charge-state evolution of relativistic lead ions passing through a thin aluminum stripper foil. It was motivated by the Gamma Factory project at CERN, where optical laser pulses will be converted into intense gamma-ray beams with energies up to a few hundred MeV via excitation of atomic transitions in few-electron heavy-ions at highly relativistic velocities. In this study all charge-states starting from Pb$^{54+}$ up to bare ions are considered at kinetic projectile energies of 4.2 and 5.9 GeV/u. To this purpose the BREIT code is employed together with theoretical cross-sections for single-electron loss and capture of the projectile ions. To verify the predicted charge-state evolution, the results are compared to the very few experimental data being available for highly-relativistic lead beams. Reasonable agreement is found, in particular for the yields of Pb$^{80+}$ and Pb$^{81+}$ ions that were recently measured using an aluminum stripper foil located in the transfer beam line between the PS and SPS synchrotron accelerators at CERN. The present study lays the groundwork to optimize the yields of charge states of interest for experiments within the scientific program of the future Gamma Factory project.

description: Two new equatorially antisymmetric solutions recently published by Ernst et al are studied. For both solutions the full set of metric functions is derived in explicit analytic form and the behavior of the solutions on the symmetry axis is analyzed. It is shown in particular that two counter-rotating equal Kerr-Newman-NUT objects will be in equilibrium when the condition m^2+ν^2=q^2+b^2 is verified, whereas two counter-rotating equal masses endowed with arbitrary magnetic and electric dipole moments cannot reach equilibrium under any choice of the parameters, so that a massless strut between them will always be present.

description: Context: Line asymmetries are generated by convective Doppler shifts in stellar atmospheres, especially in metal-poor stars, where convective motions penetrate to higher atmospheric levels. Such asymmetries are usually neglected in abundance analyses. The determination of the 6Li/7Li isotopic ratio is prone to suffering from such asymmetries, as the contribution of 6Li is a slight blending reinforcement of the red wing of each component of the corresponding 7Li line, with respect to its blue wing. Aims: The present paper studies the halo star HD 74000 and estimates the impact of convection-related asymmetries on the Li isotopic ratio determination. Method: Two methods are used to meet this aim. The first, which is purely empirical, consists in deriving a template profile from another element that can be assumed to originate in the same stellar atmospheric layers as Li I, producing absorption lines of approximately the same equivalent width as individual components of the 7Li I resonance line. The second method consists in conducting the abundance analysis based on NLTE line formation in a 3D hydrodynamical model atmosphere, taking into account the effects of photospheric convection. Results: The results of the first method show that the convective asymmetry generates an excess absorption in the red wing of the 7Li absorption feature that mimics the presence of 6Li at a level comparable to the hitherto published values. This opens the possibility that only an upper limit on 6Li/7Li has thus far been derived. The second method confirms these findings. Conclusions: From this work, it appears that a systematic reappraisal of former determinations of 6Li abundances in halo stars is warranted.

Electromagnetic stirring with alternating current during electroslag remelting
Creators: name: Hernández-Morales, José Bernardo
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The electroslag remelting process combines both a chemical refining ability and a better control on solidification which produces materials of more uniform properties. In spite of the advantages of this process, segregation-prone alloys are still difficult to produce via ESR, particularly when large ingot diameters are involved. In this context the study of externally applied electromagnetic fields is of great interest. An AC operated stirring device was designed and laboratory-scale experiments were conducted. The solidification structures resulting from the stirring as well as the mixing conditions prevailing in the liquid pool were investigated. Also, modelling studies on the electromagnetic body force produced by the stirrer and the resulting thermal field were conducted. The start of stirring results in a clearly defined band in both steady- and unsteady-state regimes. The microstructure was not significantly modified in the center of the ingot but a loss in directionality was found at the mould wall. It seems apparent that the stirred liquid does not penetrate significantly inside the interdendritic region. Mixing studies revealed that the degree of mixing in the pool is enhanced by the stirring. The theoretical calculations show that most of the electromagnetic body force is confined to the magnetic skin depth at the mould wall and the metal-slag interface. Using a previously developed two-dimensional heat transfer model it was not possible to reproduce the experimental pool profiles obtained when stirring was applied.
