OFDM for optical and radio communications : performance and channel capacity of ACO-OFDM and performance of MIMO PCC OFDM with time offsets
Creators: name: Li, Xia
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis presents two original ontributions on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). The first is a thorough investigation of the error performance and channel capacity of asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM (ACO-OFDM). ACO-OFDM is a modulation scheme designed specifically for optical communications. The second concerns the use of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) OFDM in radio frequency (RF) systems. A new scheme which uses polynomial cancellation coding (PCC) OFDM with time offsets is proposed. This new scheme is robust to both carrier frequency offset (CFO) and channel estimation errors. OFDM has been used extensively to reduce the effect of dispersion in wired and wireless RF systems. Although dispersion is also a problem in optical wireless systems, OFDM has not until recently been considered for use in these. This is because optical wireless systems use intensity modulation (IM) and so the transmitted signals must be nonnegative and as a result conventional OFDM signals which are bipolar cannot be used directly. ACO-OFDM and DC biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) are two non-negative forms of OFDM developed for optical systems. Both are robust to ISI but ACO-OFDM is in most cases much more power efficient. In this thesis results are presented for the performance of ACO-OFDM, DCO-OFDM and conventional optical modulation schemes such as on-off keying (OOK) and pulse position modulation (PPM) for both dispersive and non-dispersive channels. These show that ACO-OFDM is more tolerant to dispersion and requires less optical power than the other modulation schemes. To investigate the theoretical limits of an ACO-OFDM system, closed form analytical expressions for the channel capacity of ACO-OFDM are derived both for a flat channel and for representative dispersive optical wireless channels. The capacity of ACO-OFDM cannot be compared with the general case of an intensity modulated signal, because no general solution for this has yet been found. Instead the mutual information of an ACO-OFDM signal is calculated and compared with two other signal distributions: an exponential distribution and a clipped-Gaussian distribution. The combination of OFDM and MIMO has been used in several radio standards. However, MIMO OFDM systems like single-input single-output (SISO) OFDM systems are very sensitive to CFO. An improved MIMO PCC OFDM system is proposed in this thesis. In this system, the signals transmitted from different antennae have different time offsets. At the receiver, OFDM symbols are demodulated by using each of these time offsets in a matched detection window. This system shows better performance than a MIMO PCC OFDM system without time offsets in two cases: when there are channel estimation errors and in MIMO systems with more transmit antennae than receive antennae.

Particle image velocimetry developments for improved near-wall flow measurements
Creators: name: Nguyen, Chuong Vinh
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis is a compiled collection of works on the development of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and micro PIV for near-wall flow measurements. PIV has been used to study many large scale industrial and biological flows, and micro PIV is increasingly utilised in micro-biological and micro-fluidic flow measurements. Both of the methods however suffer significant errors in the measurements of near wall flows due to the effects of the wall boundary and high velocity gradients. In addition, micro PIV suffers significant errors due to volume illumination and the resultant imaging of out-of-focus particles. Many important phenomena such as near-wall turbulence, near-wall transportation of particles or blood cells occur in near-wall regions, and significant improvement of PIV and micro PIV is required. This thesis is devoted to providing solutions to this demand by proposing three new PIV and micro PIV measurement techniques: image overlapping, volumetric-correlation PIV and interfacial PIV. Although these techniques can be applied to general applications, they have been optimised for biological applications. Image overlapping, when applied to micro PIV data, improves the measurement accuracy by effectively reducing the effect of out-of-focus particles. In micro PIV the imaging of out-of-focus particles by volume illumination causes significant measurement bias over the measurement depth. Image overlapping improves measurement accuracy significantly more than currently available techniques, while requiring fewer computational resources. In contrast to improving micro PIV accuracy by reducing the out-of-focus effect, volumetric-correlation PIV (VPIV) utilises this effect to provide 3-dimensional, 2-component (3D2C) velocity fields. VPIV is further extended to uniquely measure particle concentration. The concentration measurements improve the velocity measurement accuracy and provide additional information to study near-wall particle transport phenomena. VPIV simplifies 3D velocity measurements while requiring cheaper hardware. Challenging PIV and micro PIV measurements of flows near curved walls are further resolved by interfacial PIV. In this technique the fluid regions near curved walls are straightened by conformal transformation and a wall-normal velocity profile, with one-pixel resolution, is obtained utilising a novel line-correlation function and curve fitting. Interfacial PIV substantially simplifies the manual image rotation normally required in traditional PIV techniques, while increasing both the resolution of the near-wall velocity profiles and the accuracy of the wall-shear velocity gradient.

description: Metacirculants are a basic and well-studied family of vertex-transitive graphs, and weak metacirculants are generalizations of them. A graph is called a weak metacirculant if it has a vertex-transitive metacyclic automorphism group. This paper is devoted to the study of weak metacirculants with odd prime power order. We first prove that a weak metacirculant of odd prime power order is a metacirculant if and only if it has a vertex-transitive split metacyclic automorphism group. We then prove that for any odd prime $p$ and integer $\ell\geq 4$, there exist weak metacirculants of order $p^\ell$ which are Cayley graphs but not Cayley graphs of any metacyclic group; this answers a question in Li et al. (2013). We construct such graphs explicitly by introducing a construction which is a generalization of generalized Petersen graphs. Finally, we determine all smallest possible metacirculants of odd prime power order which are Cayley graphs but not Cayley graphs of any metacyclic group.

description: The overall objective of the study was to establish the effect of credit risk management on profitability - the Case of United Bank S.C. Specific objectives were to; to establish the effects of client appraisal, credit risk control, collection policy and terms of credit on profitability practice of United Bank S.C.A descriptive case-study and explanatory research method was adopted. 112 management level employees were the targeted population. The respondents used in the study were selected using the method of stratified sampling. The sample size was 88 respondents. Questionnaires were used in the study for collection of primary type information. Secondary data was used and was collected from financial reports and the internet. Collected data was analysed using descriptive statistics.It revealed that Client appraisal significantly and positively relate with profitability practice of private commercial banks; Credit risk control and profitability United Bank S.Care significantly and positively related; Collection policy and profitability practice of United Bank S.Chad significant and positive relation; Terms of credit and profitability United Bank S.C had significant and positive association. Recommendation of the study is for united banks to improve methods of appraising clients to avoid clients who are not worthy of credit who might lead to delinquency of loans. The result will improve performance by having loan repayment and loan portfolios performing positively. It is therefore recommended that United Bank S.C need to improve the way they deal with risk accruing from credit through improvement of credit risk control; this can be done by having databases that assesses profiles of creditors both current and prospective and guarantors which private commercial banks can share amongst themselves to lower levels of NPLs and therefore improving the performance of the banking institutions. The bank need to involve clients greatly in coming up with terms of credit, since they're individuals directly involved and understand better on what terms should be applied. Entities responsible for creation of policies need to come up with prudential guides that are effective and policies that will strengthen management of risks. The bank need to embrace stringent credit policies that help them develop a lasting association with clients, come up with information and requirements of the client. This will help in development of distinct strategies in the context of granting of credit, credit terms and client service that enable growth of sales. Management of the bank should consider formulating a universal credit policy document that will be adopted by all banks from which rating of their financial performance through credit risk management can be measured and regulated. Also stringent policies should always be useful in regulating the whole process of loan application, loan appraisal issue and loan repayment.

Micro/nano-actuation -- piezoelectric and graphene-based designs
Creators: name: Rogers, Geoffrey William
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In recent times, there has been an immense push towards the miniaturisation of technologies for the purpose of micro-robotic minimally invasive surgery (MIS). The predominant factor limiting the further miniaturisation of these technologies is the existence of practical actuators that are small, powerful and versatile enough for the application at hand. This has prompted intense research into novel micro/nano-actuation techniques. However, the solutions proposed are far from optimal, particularly concerning the practical realisation of high-power sub-millimetre actuators. A complete survey of the actuation technologies available reveals piezoelectric actuators and graphene-based electro-active materials to be the most promising candidates for miniaturisation. As a result, this thesis investigates, develops and tests micro/nano-actuators based on piezoelectricity and graphene-based electro-activation. Comprehensive investigations into these two actuation technologies results in the development of new and useful micro/nano-actuators. Specifically, a diameter 350 μm three degree-of-freedom (DOF) piezoelectric micro- motor is numerically developed, and is experimentally shown to produce controlled, reversible rotation about three orthogonal axes. As this micro-motor operates via resonance, two micro-Bragg reflectors are designed and tested in order to isolate the acoustic energy of the micro-motor from its surroundings, thereby allowing it to be integrated with sensitive micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), such as micro-guidewires. Attention then turns to the electromechanical actuation of graphene-based materials, where using a novel computational model it is shown that the high electromechanical responses (strains) of these materials in the presence of liquid electrolytes are primarily attributed to the electrostatic double-layer (EDL) effect. Given the significant response time constraints of EDL-based actuators (~1 s), this thesis presents graphene-based materials (highly-ordered compounds of graphene oxide (GO)), which are capable of producing strains as high as those of the EDL effect; but with very short response times (~1 ns), via the quantum mechanical effect alone. These GO actuators are shown to produce reversible and irreversible strains as high as 6.3% and 28.2%, respectively, with very unique responses such as electron-induced contraction, making them ideal building blocks for the development of artificial muscles. With the ever-increasing demand for smaller and more useful micro/nano-actuators, novel techniques and methods must be developed and adopted in order to pioneer the next generation of technological breakthroughs in all fields, including minimally invasive surgery.

description: We study the probability distribution of the ratio between the second smallest and smallest eigenvalue in the $n\times n$ Laguerre Unitary Ensemble. The probability that this ratio is greater than $r>1$ is expressed in terms of an $n \times n$ Hankel determinant with a perturbed Laguerre weight. The limiting probability distribution for the ratio as $n\to\infty$ is found as an integral over $(0,\infty)$ containing two functions $q_{1}(x)$ and $q_{2}(x)$. These functions satisfy a system of two coupled Painlevé V equations, which are derived from a Lax pair of a Riemann-Hilbert problem. We compute asymptotic behaviours of these functions as $rx \to 0_{+}$ and $(r-1)x \to \infty$, as well large $n$ asymptotics for the associated Hankel determinants in several regimes of $r$ and $x$.

Year: 2010

description: The effect of various traditional processing methods (boiling, roasting, germination and fermentation) on proximate composition, antinutritional factors and HClextractability of minerals of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) grown in Ethiopia was studied. Moisture content, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber and total ash ranges were 5.9 -9.4%, 13.8-16.7%, 4.3-6.1%, 3.4-5.9% and 2.3-2.7% respectively. The range of iron, zinc, calcium and phosphorous were 4.0-6.8, 2.7-3.9, 135.8-207 and 252.2-298.11mg/100g respectively. And also the ranges for phytate and condensed tannin content were 72.07-97.46 and 99.26-175.23 mg/100g respectively on wet weight basis. The HCl - extractability (as an index of bioavailability) of iron, zinc, calcium and phosphorous in each of the processing methods was also studied. The results indicated that fermentation and germination were most effective in reducing Phytate and condensed tannin content and enhance HCl -extractability of minerals.

Subjects: family values, gender roles; attitudes; traditionalism

description: Using the data of empirical research of gender roles in family carried out in 2018, the authors of this paper point out the transformation of family value system in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Postsocialist transformation in Bosnia and Herzegovina has influenced changes of value family patterns and orientations, so traditional value orientations are dominant, marked by immense value gap, instead of modernist value orientations. The results indicate that the data subjects’ answers are still traditional and patriarchal and that young men and women show tendency towards modern value orientations. The acceptance of modern attitudes is moderate and not resolute, and regarding various issues there is a large percent of irresolute answers. It can be concluded that there is certain division of values. On one side there are generations of young and women and on the other side there are generations of older and men who are very close to traditional values.

description: We develop an approximation formula for the cross-validation error (CVE) of a sparse linear regression penalized by $\ell_1$-norm and total variation terms, which is based on a perturbative expansion utilizing the largeness of both the data dimensionality and the model. The developed formula allows us to reduce the necessary computational cost of the CVE evaluation significantly. The practicality of the formula is tested through application to simulated black-hole image reconstruction on the event-horizon scale with super resolution. The results demonstrate that our approximation reproduces the CVE values obtained via literally conducted cross-validation with reasonably good precision.

description: The paper deals with the relationship between the Big Five personality traits (Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Openness and Neuroticism/Emotional Stability) and sales performance in the perspective of the social representation of salespeople personality. The first part of the article provides an overview of the topic, while the second half reports the results of a study carried out with 220 Italian salespeople (16 females) and correlating their answers to a personality test named FLORA – an Italian measure of 24 work-related personality characteristics developed and validated for the assessment of specific professional profiles in organizations and based on the Big Five Model – with their sales figures. According to hypotheses, Conscientiousness, Extraversion and Openness are positively related and Agreeableness is negatively related to sales performance, which is also consistent with the social representation of salespeople personality. Emotional Stability does not prove to be a Big Five directly related to sales performance, but the three facets of Emotional Stability measured by FLORA (Stress tolerance, Frustration tolerance and Self-control) are positively and significantly related to the length of service, while the length of service, in turn, is related to job performance. This supports an indirect relation between Emotional Stability and sales performance passing through the length of service.

Skilled Employees Turnover & its Management in the Ministry of Justice
Creators: name: Tesfaye, Zeru
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2016

description: The purpose of this study was to examine factors of skilled employees' turnover and its management on the Ministry of Justice. Basic questions i.e. main factors for employees' intentions to leave their job for current & why they left the organization for ex-employees were asked in relation with demographic, controllable & non-controllable factors. The study employed quantitative and qualitative research design methods. Systematic Random and purposive sampling techniques were used to select the sample size from the population. Questionnaire and interview were used for data collection. Descriptive statistics such as percentage, mean value, cross tabulation were employed for data analysis. Based on the data analysis the following findings were recorded. The main finding indicated that dissatisfaction with job, and lack of organizational commitments was some of the factors for employee turnover. Additionally, perceived alternative employment opportunities are also one of the reasons for turnover intention. The finding also indicated the following effects of turnover including loss of experienced and skilled employees, higher recruitment costs, and higher workload due to leavers. The study result shows most of the current & ex-employees have lack of job satisfaction ; in contrary most of them do not have a problem on procedural & distributive justice they were served .This means , the lack of job satisfaction problems were rise from another discomfort. The management should examine this hidden problem expected to reach at a solution & to revive the job satisfaction of its employee's in order to retain them. Managers of the organization should approach employees at their work place, particularly identify employees with dissatisfied and address issues not to leave their jobs. The higher the participation of employee in the decision making process, the faster for its implementation and employee satisfaction. Hence managers should encourage, employees to participate the decision making process of the organization core programs. Key Words: Skilled Employees, Turnover intentions, Turnover, Ministry of Justice, Job Satisfaction, Organizational Commitment, Perceived Alternative Employment Opportunities

Stress corrosion cracking of twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steel
Creators: name: Khalissi, Muhammed Musaher Muhammed
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Metals and alloys with low stacking fault energy (SFE) undergo twinning within their grains. Twinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steels possess an exceptional combination of tensile strength and ductility, and therefore, they offer enormous potential in applications where impact resistance is critically important, such as the critical components of automotives that experience sudden impact in accidents. Because of their high toughness as well as manganese as the major alloying element (instead of Ni that is the major alloying element in common austenitic stainless steels), the TWIP steels are also a less expensive alternative for the toughness aspect of the common Cr-Ni austenitic stainless steels. However, alloys with attractive mechanical properties when exposed to corrosive environment must also possess the desired resistance to environment assisted cracking (EAC) that can be caused as a result of the synergistic action of tensile stress and corrosion, e.g., stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Previous corrosion studies on twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steels in the open literature have generally focused on electrochemical corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement. In this research, the stress corrosion cracking susceptibility of an austenitic Fe-Mn-Al-Si TWIP steel was determined at different strain rates in acid, neutral, basic aqueous solutions at different temperatures. SCC was investigated using slow strain rate test (SSRT) and constant load (CL) testing. Roles of strain rate, temperature, pH and electrolyte concentration in SCC of TWIP steel has been investigated. In order to estimate the extent by which the strain rate was changing within the specimens gauge length during the SSRTs, a finite element simulation (using ABAQUS STANDARD 6.9) was employed to calculate the gradient of strain rate developed in the necking area. This research demonstrates the role of the types of twins (annealing twins and mechanical twins) in stress corrosion cracks propagation. This research discusses in particular the role of severe and frequent localized deformation (i.e., twinning) in SCC resistance.

Intersectionality and the Subjective Processes of LBQ Migrant Women: Between Discrimination and Self-determination
Creators: name: Masullo, Giuseppe
name: Ferrara, Carmela
Publisher: name: QuiEdit
Year: 2021
Subjects: identity; migrant women, sexual orientation

description: The article examines the identity profiles of LBQ migrant women living at the intersection of several factors of discrimination and oppression (related to gender, cultural affiliation, skin colour, sexual orientation, etc.). We combined two theoretical approaches – intersectionality and queer theory – to examine the identity strategies that these women put in place in their various relational circles of belonging, exploring how women react to the ‘labelling’ attempts by mainstream society, the network of compatriots, and the wider LGBT community. This highlights the power relations underpinning these relationships, the stigmatisation processes experiences, the attempts at accommodation and resistance undertaken by women to express – with regard to ethnic and sexual identity – both the need for belonging and that for self-determination.
