Die starke Vernetzung und die zunehmende mobile Kommunikation machen es immer einfacher, große Datenmengen im Verborgenen zu übertragen. Umso wichtiger ist es, moderne Kommunikationstechnologien wie 5G genauer unter die Lupe zu nehmen und zu überprüfen, ob Informationen damit versteckt übertragen werden können.
Supporting sustainable lifestyle change: an evaluation of IKEA’s Live Lagom project
Creators: name: Elf, Patrick
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2020

description: A shift towards sustainable lifestyles is considered to be a major element in the societal effort to decarbonise and avoid potentially disastrous climate change. Often this has been framed as the responsibility of individuals. At the same time, it seems clear that companies have an important role to play in the transition towards a sustainable world. The results and the potential role of a company of enabling citizens to move towards more sustainable lifestyles have been rarely studied in depth. This research aims to fill that gap by focusing on the examination of IKEA’s Live Lagom project. It explored the barriers to, and enabling factors for sustainable lifestyles at home. During a first phase that used an exploratory sequential design, the research confirmed the complexity of barriers and enabling factors. Initial findings indicated that a process of building a shared identity emerged and led to a strengthened motivation to enact further pro-environmental behaviours (i.e. the spillover hypothesis). These results were the basis for a second, explanatory phase which used an explanatory sequential design with a focus on quantitative data. The important role of a pro-environmental identity for the enactment of pro-environmental behaviours was confirmed, and a positive correlation between both was found. However, this was only significant for behaviours that were enacted at home. Additional qualitative evidence suggest that (pro-environmental) behaviour change as well as behavioural spillovers are not a linear process but rather follow a path of ‘adaptive muddling’ (Kaplan, 1990; De Young & Kaplan, 2012) in which a number of possible behaviours are tested in smaller projects. The outcomes suggest that through the support of IKEA operating as a Lifestyle Change Support System this process can be nurtured and potentially accelerated which is necessary in the light of the urgency of adapting less environmental destructive lifestyles. Following a bottom-up approach using empirical evidence from the Live Lagom project as well as a top-down approach that draws on existing literature from across the social sciences, a new framework was developed linking capabilities for living sustainably and commitments that bind individuals and companies alike to a course of action. This framework, Capabilities and Commitments, highlights the need to attend to structural factors as well as individual-level factors when trying to change unsustainable behaviours and lifestyles. The framework is supplemented by a set of nine design principles for corporate interventions for promoting sustainable lifestyles, based on insights from the Live Lagom project.

description: В данной статье автор обосновывает, что право никогда не может быть обособлено от нравственности. Даже тогда, когда стараются свести его к простому разграничению интересов и воль, не могут не считаться и с моментами оценки этих интересов и воль по содержанию. Никакое разграничение невозможно без оценки. Когда пытаются противопоставить право нравственности по различию внешнего поведения и внутреннего настроения воли, вынуждены бывают сознаться, что и право обращает внимание на содержание воли и на внутренние настроения людей, и что нравственность требует не только одного настроения людей, но и дел.
Point-of-Care Faecal Immunochemical Testing
Creators: name: MACLEAN, WILLIAM ALAN
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2022

description: Faecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT) can identify the presence of faecal occult blood (FOB). It is a screening tool that identifies those at risk of having colorectal cancer (CRC). Initial roll out of FIT was for the asymptomatic screening population, but recently it has been advocated as a ‘rule out’ test for those with bowel symptoms. FIT is also known to identify those who may have other forms of serious bowel disease (SBD), this includes high risk adenomas and inflammatory bowel disease.
description: Traditionally, FIT is performed in laboratories with analysers that have a high throughput, but there are also point-of-care (POC) analysers that are on the market for professional use. These devices have little evidence with regards to their application and diagnostic accuracy.
description: This single centre observational study evaluated POC FIT in a symptomatic cohort considered at risk for CRC. Patients were recruited from those referred on the two-week wait (TWW) pathway at the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust. An optimal POC analyser (the QuikRead go®) was identified, which can detect FOB, and quantitate it as a concentration like laboratory-based FIT analysers. Faecal haemoglobin (f-Hb) results are reported as μg haemoglobin/gram of faeces (μg/g). This enables different cut-offs for positivity to be set. The lower limit of detection for the device is <10 μg/g. The performance of the analyser was assessed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves.
description: In total, 633 patients provided paired FIT samples for the POC QuikRead go® and a laboratory-based FIT system (FOB God Wide®). Of these, n=553 obtained definitive diagnostic outcomes (after lower gastrointestinal endoscopy or CT colonography), which enabled comparison to the performance of the prior FIT results.
description: There were 14 diagnoses of CRC and 52 with SBD. Using <10 μg/g as a cut-off, the sensitivity for the QuikRead go® analyser was 92.9% (95% CI 68.5%–98.7%) for CRC and 76.9% (95% CI 63.9%–86.3%) for SBD. A negative FIT was present in n=379 (68.5%) patients (negative predictive value for CRC = 99.7%). The area under the ROC curve for CRC detection was 0.92.
description: This is the largest study to assess a POC FIT analyser for symptomatic patients and the first to be conducted within a TWW clinic setting. In addition, data was gathered on the feasibility of faecal sampling via a digital rectal examination, patient opinion towards FIT and how FIT was rolled out for triage in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Finite element analysis of spherically voided biaxial slabs subject to static and seismic loading
Creators: name: Farrugia, James
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2020

description: Spherically voided biaxial slabs (SVBS) present structural advantages for static loading which can lead to economic solutions. There exist however lacunae, in the knowledge on the behaviour of SVBS diaphragm systems when subject to seismic induced ground motion which, if overlooked, would restrict their future advancement and proliferation into seismic regions. The assertion, of lower floor seismic accelerations due to the 25-30% SVBS mass reduction, should factor the response uncertainty due to the diaphragm stiffness, higher natural frequency and floor acceleration magnification. The present research presents an innovative structural modellisation approach to facilitate the nonlinear transient dynamic analysis (NLTDA) of SVBS diaphragms by the transmutation of their in-plane diaphragm bending behaviour into 3D Kirchhoff beam finite elements. The SVBS diaphragm in-plane flexural response is captured using a novel adaptation of the 2D static-nonlinear moment-curvature analysis (2D-SNLMCA) procedure on partially-perforated RC diaphragms. A method is proposed for the 2D-plane stress (2D-PS) models to directly emulate the 3D-SVBS diaphragm behaviour by converting their 3D morphology into a 2D-PS diaphragm configuration without the need of using 3D-solid-continuum nonlinear finite element analysis. The numerical tools adopted were validated using available experimental data and verified using the closed-form differential equation of motion for a dynamic system and RUAUMOKO dynamic finite element suite. The 3D-NLTDA model accurately captured the global diaphragm demands in terms of force, deformation, floor acceleration magnification and ductility levels which are compared to the diaphragm 2D-SNLMCA capacity levels. Diaphragm energy dissipation optimisation is possible through an iterative matching approach of the seismic demands using the 3D-NLTDA with the diaphragm designed moment-curvature response from the 2D-SNLMCA. This shows that the proposed methodology could be adopted in the design towards increasing energy absorption and therefore reducing structural damage. The 3D-NLTDA shows that the better performance of SVBS diaphragms during a seismic event, compared to a solid diaphragm, is not by default due to their lighter mass, as sometimes claimed in the literature, but is conditional on the diaphragm stiffness, floor acceleration magnification and reinforcement levels which can be assessed using the proposed methods.
From Commission to Publication: a Study of Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s Guitar Repertoire Informed by his Correspondence with Andrés Segovia
Creators: name: BRUANT, BENJAMIN FRANÇOIS
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2021

description: "Graham Wade, in his article on Andrés Segovia for the Grove music Online, describes his impact on the progress and status of the guitar as a recital instrument as ‘immeasurable’. Supporting the adjective with the statement: ‘He revitalized traditional playing techniques and expanded the repertory by editing many transcriptions and by his massive work in inspiring composers to write new music for the instrument.’ Indeed, not only did he established the guitar as a classical instrument by performing in the most renowned concert hall, but he also worked actively to develop its repertoire. Segovia’s 36 years collaboration with the Italian/American composer Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco resulted in 35 works featuring the guitar.
description: For the first time, both sides of the correspondences between Andrés Segovia and a composer are gathered. They offer a significant insight on the role of Andres Segovia in the development of the guitar repertoire through his collaboration with Castelnuovo-Tedesco. The letters reveal previously unknow biographical information which, in several cases, correct misinformation in the Segovia literature.
description: Furthermore, the collection of letters represents an unprecedented source of information for performers. The numerous details about Castelnuovo’s guitar works revealed in the letters contribute to a new understanding of the repertoire, including the inspiration behind numerous composition elements.
description: The editing and publication of Castelnuovo’s repertoire is, also, discussed in detail within the letters. Editions and publication of the ‘Segovia repertoire’ has been and is still one of the main topics of debate in the classical guitar world. This thesis answers numerous questions on the role of Segovia in the composition, editing, and publishing process of Castelnuovo’s guitar repertoire.
description: It is, therefore, an important read for any researcher on 20th century guitar repertoire as well as for every guitarist who want to perform Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s music. "

description: Background: Timely access to effective treatments for arthritis is a priority at national, provincial and regional levels in Canada due to population aging coupled with limited health human resources. Models of care for arthritis are being implemented across the country but mainly in local contexts, not from an evidence-informed policy or framework. The purpose of this study is to examine existing models of care for arthritis in Canada at the local level in order to identify commonalities and differences in their implementation that could point to important considerations for health policy and service delivery. Methods: Semi-structured key informant interviews were conducted with 70 program managers and/or care providers in three Canadian provinces identified through purposive and snowball sampling followed by more detailed examination of 6 models of care (two per province). Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed thematically using a qualitative descriptive approach. Results: Two broad models of care were identified for Total Joint Replacement and Inflammatory Arthritis. Commonalities included lack of complete and appropriate referrals from primary care physicians and lack of health human resources to meet local demands. Strategies included standardized referrals and centralized intake and triage using non-specialist health care professionals. Differences included the nature of the care and follow-up, the role of the specialist, and location of service delivery. Conclusions: Current models of care are mainly focused on Total Joint Replacement and Inflammatory Arthritis. Given the increasing prevalence of arthritis and that published data report only a small proportion of current service delivery is specialist care; provision of timely, appropriate care requires development, implementation and evaluation of models of care across the continuum of care.

description: Background: This study examined the formulation, adoption, and implementation of a ban on smoking in the parks and beaches in Vancouver, Canada. Methods: Informed by Critical Multiplism, we explored the policy adoption process, support for and compliance with a local bylaw prohibiting smoking in parks and on beaches, experiences with enforcement, and potential health equity issues through a series of qualitative and quantitative studies. Results: Findings suggest that there was unanimous support for the introduction of the bylaw among policy makers, as well as a high degree of positive public support. We observed that smoking initially declined following the ban’s implementation, but that smoking practices vary in parks by location. We also found evidence of different levels of enforcement and compliance between settings, and between different populations of park and beach users. Conclusions: Overall success with the implementation of the bylaw is tempered by potential increases in health inequities because of variable enforcement of the ban; greatest levels of smoking appear to continue to occur in the least advantaged areas of the city. Jurisdictions developing such policies need to consider how to allocate sufficient resources to enhance voluntary compliance and ensure that such bylaws do not contribute to health inequities.
A neurobiological and phenomenological investigation of voice-hearing in borderline personality disorder.
Creators: name: Davies, Geoff
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2020

description: Background: A developing evidence-base suggests that Auditory Verbal Hallucinations (AVH) are more common in Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) than traditionally recognised, and that the level of distress, and length of symptoms is more similar to AVH in the context of schizophrenia than previously believed. These preliminary studies support the hypothesis that there may be shared phenomenology of voice-hearing in both diagnostic groups which may be reflected in similar AVH neurobiology. The present study sought to investigate AVH phenomena in BPD and to see if voice-hearing distress is associated with Grey-Matter Volume (GMV) deficits in frontal and temporal regions already implicated in schizophrenia. Method: Nineteen people with a diagnosis of BPD were compared to a sample of 106 people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia on the Psychotic Rating Scale (PSYRATS). A sample of 12 BPD participants took part in an MRI scan and GMV was investigated in frontal, speech and temporal language regions in relation to voice-hearing distress. The relationship between voice-hearing phenomena (PSYRATS and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale) was then explored within the BPD sample by correlational analysis with emotional variability (Affective Lability Scale-Short Form), state and trait anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) and dissociation (Cambridge Depersonalisation Scale; Curious Experiences Scale). Results: No significant differences were found between the BPD and schizophrenia samples on voice-hearing attribution. Trend level relationships were found between voice-hearing distress, and GMV in frontal and speech production regions. Intensity of voice-hearing distress was found to negatively correlate with dissociation, and trait anxiety to emotional variability. Conclusions: The present study suggests that voice-hearing in BPD may have shared features to the experience observed in schizophrenia. There is some evidence that voice-hearing distress can be related to frontal and speech production regions. Preliminary evidence suggests that voice-hearing in BPD may benefit from the same interventions offered to those with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. Interpretations however are tentative considering the sample size of the present study, and replication in a study with sufficient statistical power is imperative.
Understanding Faculty Association Communication Strategies During Strike Action

Year: 2024

description: In 2021-22 there were an unprecedented six faculty association strikes across Canada. These strike actions took place during a period of crisis and transition in Canadian news industry. The consolidation of traditional media outlets meant that these venues were even less reliable for the extensive or effective coverage of the strikes, trends in post-secondary education, or faculty experiences as workers. Concurrently, the proliferation of social media platforms allowed faculty associations to reach audiences directly, bypassing the traditional news media. This paper presents results of our study of Canadian faculty associations’ communication strategies in this period of transformation in Canadian media structures. Based on interviews with members of the communications teams of faculty associations on strike in 2021-22, we identified three key issues that communications teams grappled with during their strikes: the “neutral” approach of the traditional media, a concern with maintaining professionalism and transparency, and the increasing need to use social media to reach important stakeholders. We conclude that although communicating with members remains the most critical task for faculty associations’ communications teams during negotiations and job action, it is a benefit to overall support to have robust external communications as well. In an ever-changing media environment, this means focusing on communications strategies well before beginning the bargaining process.

description: Beam steering impairments adversely affect antenna performance at wider steering angles. Scan loss degrades the antenna gain, and hence the link budget. To address this problem, antennas designs based on phased arrays, lenses, and transmitarrays are proposed. Millimetre wave beamforming within 5G cell sectors is considered as an application scenario. Feed networks for an 8-element phased array, operating at 28 GHz, were designed using unequal power dividers. A Taylor amplitude distribution was applied to reduce the sidelobe level to -15.2 dB at boresight. Prototypes were fabricated in microstrip, using meanders to steer the beam. Cascaded Fresnel lenses were placed around the array, to enhance the gain. By tilting the lenses to align with the steered beam, the lenses increased the gain by 3.19 dB at ±52°, and by a further 1.5 dB when repositioned in simulation. Asymmetric amplitude distributions were applied to the array to prevent the main lobe from splitting. Diffraction theory was used to analyse the focusing properties of the lens arrangement. The fabricated prototype exhibited a bandwidth of 1.75 GHz. Antennas were designed and simulated for line-of-sight MIMO scenarios. An envelope correlation coefficient below 0.0356 was maintained for both designs. 2D SISO beam steering was also simulated. Achievable data rates were estimated from the antenna parameters, and the effect of interference was evaluated. Scan loss was mitigated for the two antenna rows within the focal region. A conformal transmitarray was designed, using 1-bit unit cells based on crossed-slots. A unit cell placement rule was proposed to reduce the number of electronically reconfigurable cells by 59%. A measured gain of 12.5 dBi and a simulated total efficiency of 75% were obtained at boresight and the maximum steering angle of 53°. By combining reconfigurable lenses with phased arrays, the focusing directivity is able to mitigate scan loss.

description: We introduce a multi-location interactive touch screen based system (Collage), which enables the sharing of digital images and textual content between distributed intergenerational familial homes. We further explore the significance and importance of 'time' for designing technologies, which aim to support social connectivity between families. The collage system was utilized by three independent families, named A, B and C (Figure 1). Each family had at least two homes, typically one for the Grandparent's (GP) and one for the nuclear family. Family C had three different homes for the same extended family. The system ran for between 6 to 10 weeks in each of the three settings. The study encompassed in-depth interview data, supported by videotaped observation, and analysis of system audit logs, which reveals participants' experience of the system. In this paper we highlight the temporal structures embedded in the users everyday activities with Collage and the temporal affordances of the system itself. We maintain that these temporal factors provided family members with a resource for sharing, receiving, and managing their social interactions through Collage. We conclude by articulating design implications for intergenerational social connectivity systems with an emphasis on temporality as a design resource for mobile and networked image displays.

description: The effectiveness of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices is crucial in fostering employee commitment and enhancing job performance in private universities. This study examines the influence of HRM practices on employee commitment in private universities in Southeast Nigeria. The research adopts a descriptive survey design that utilizes both quantitative and qualitative methods to collect and analyze data. A structured questionnaire was administered to academic and administrative staff at selected private universities. The findings reveal that HRM practices, including recruitment and selection, performance management, compensation strategies, employee training, and workplace relations, significantly influence employee commitment. The descriptive analysis indicates a strong emotional connection between employees and their institutions, with a mean score of 4.02 (SD = 0.97). Similarly, 69.6% of respondents expressed no intention to leave their institutions, reflecting a commitment to long-term service. The study also employs ANOVA to assess variations in HRM practices across different universities, yielding a statistically significant F-value of 4.62 (p = 0.002), confirming differences in HRM perceptions among employees. The research highlights the need for private universities to implement standardized HR policies that align employee expectations with institutional goals. Recommendations include enhancing career growth opportunities, improving compensation structures, and fostering a supportive work environment to enhance employee retention and institutional sustainability. These insights contribute to the body of knowledge on HRM practices and their role in shaping workforce stability in private educational institutions

description: 'LIN 100 Aboriginal Australia: Victorian people, places and experiences' is an introductory unit in the Indigenous studies minor, and an elective unit open to students from any study area. The unit aims to provide students with an understanding of Australia's Indigenous peoples and the issues that define their experiences as Australian citizens, and to encourage students to examine their role as Australian citizens in our contemporary multicultural and multinational society. The unit includes a program of Indigenous guest speakers, representing a wide range of backgrounds and employment areas, as well as field trips to areas of significance to the local Indigenous community. Feedback from students in institutional generic surveys has been highly positive; however, these results may not give a complete picture of the role played by the guest speakers and Indigenous community members in the unit, in both on and off campus environments. An initial literature search indicated a clear lack of information in this field---most of the literature is based around the education of Indigenous students, rather than utilising the Indigenous people and their cultural knowledge for non-Indigenous students. This paper reports on the outcomes from interviews with students to determine students' perceptions of the impact of these interactions in them both personally and academically.

Three stages of migration: a life course perspective on the Czech and Slovak female migration to the UK between 1989-2004.
Creators: name: Zajacova, Katarina
Publisher: name: University of Surrey
Year: 2020

description: This study explores three stages of migration of Czech and Slovak women who migrated to Britain between 1989 and 2004 to first work as au-pairs and later settled in the UK. It investigates their migration journeys through qualitative life-course interviews and examines the gendered nature of their motivations, their experiences of the migration process and their approach to integration, intertwined with their perpetually evolving sense of belonging. Conceptually the study is informed by Boyd and Grieco’s (2003) theoretical framework of temporal analysis of migration stages combined with intersectional insight and the theory of structuration. This theoretical combination acknowledges the interconnection of gender with several other social categories (such as class, nationality and race) that shaped individual migrants’ journeys, whilst it was equally able to recognise the impact of macro level forces on women’s choices and their continuous effort to be accepted as a fully recognised member of the host society. Some of the core concepts that arose from the interviews include the gendered nature of migrant domestic work, particularly in relation to ambiguity surrounding the au-pair scheme that resulted in a significant disparity between migrants’ and host families’ expectations of what au-pairs should do. The study also found that both the attitudes of migrants towards the home population and their understanding of how they were received by the British population were directly linked to the concept of gender, race and national stereotyping. The analysis suggests that these women’s motivations were affected by challenges of the post-communist transition period in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It also discovered that migrants’ pre-conceived expectations of Britain as mostly white and middle-class society were met with starkly different complex reality of a multicultural and a class divided Britain. The findings show some evidence that the women utilised their gender and race to negotiate their initially unfavourable societal position in order to gradually improve their social capital, whilst the intersection of their nationality and class created specific barriers that hindered their original ambitions to pursue further education in the UK.

description: Millions of laboratory animals are killed each year worldwide. There is an ethical, and in many countries also a legal, imperative to ensure those deaths cause minimal suffering. However, there is a lack of consensus regarding what methods of killing are humane for many species and stages of development. In 2013, an international group of researchers and stakeholders met at Newcastle University, United Kingdom to discuss the latest research and which methods could currently be considered most humane for the most commonly used laboratory species (mice, rats and zebrafish). They also discussed factors to consider when making decisions about appropriate techniques for particular species and projects, and priorities for further research. This report summarises the research findings and discussions, with recommendations to help inform good practice for humane killing.
