description: A commensurate-incommensurate phase transition in bilayer graphene is investigated in the framework of the Frenkel-Kontorova model extended to the case of two interacting chains of particles. Analytic expressions are derived to estimate the critical unit elongation of one of the graphene layers at which the transition to the incommensurate phase takes place, the length and formation energy of incommensurability defects (IDs) and the threshold force required to start relative motion of the layers on the basis of dispersion-corrected density functional theory calculations of the interlayer interaction energy as a function of the relative position of the layers. These estimates are confirmed by atomistic calculations using the DFT-D based classical potential. The possibility to measure the barriers for relative motion of graphene layers by the study of formation of IDs in bilayer graphene is discussed.

description: When binary black holes are embedded in a gaseous environment, a rotating disk surrounding them, the so-called circumbinary disk, will be formed. The binary exerts a gravitational torque on the circumbinary disk and thereby the orbital angular momentum is transferred to it, while the angular momentum of the circumbinary disk is transferred to the binary through the mass accretion. The binary undergoes an orbital decay due to both the gravitational wave emission and the binary-disk interaction. This causes the phase evolution of the gravitational wave signal. The precise measurement of the gravitational wave phase thus may provide information regarding the circumbinary disk. In this paper, we assess the detectability of the signature of the binary-disk interaction using the future space-borne gravitational wave detectors such as DECIGO and BBO by the standard matched filtering analysis. We find that the effect of the circumbinary disk around binary black holes in the mass range $6M_sun\le{M}\lesssim3\times10^3M_sun$ is detectable at a statistically significant level in five year observation, provided that gas accretes onto the binary at a rate greater than $\dot{M}\sim1.4\times10^{17} [gs^{-1}] j^{-1}(M/10M_sun)^{33/23}$ with 10% mass-to-energy conversion efficiency, where j represents the efficiency of the angular momentum transfer from the binary to the circumbinary disk. We show that $O(0.1)$ coalescence events are expected to occur in sufficiently dense molecular clouds in five year observation. We also point out that the circumbinary disk is detectable, even if its mass at around the inner edge is by over 10 orders of magnitude less than the binary mass.

description: This paper is a sequel to the paper \cite{refGH}. We relate the matroid notion of a combinatorial geometry to a generalization which we call a configuration type. Configuration types arise when one classifies the Hilbert functions and graded Betti numbers for fat point subschemes supported at $n\le8$ essentially distinct points of the projective plane. Each type gives rise to a surface $X$ obtained by blowing up the points. We classify those types such that $n=6$ and $-K_X$ is nef. The surfaces obtained are precisely the desingularizations of the normal cubic surfaces. By classifying configuration types we recover in all characteristics the classification of normal cubic surfaces, which is well-known in characteristic 0 \cite{refBW}. As an application of our classification of configuration types, we obtain a numerical procedure for determining the Hilbert function and graded Betti numbers for the ideal of any fat point subscheme $Z=m_1p_1+...+m_6p_6$ such that the points $p_i$ are essentially distinct and $-K_X$ is nef, given only the configuration type of the points $p_1,...,p_6$ and the coefficients $m_i$.

Inference on power law spatial trends

subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Power law or generalized polynomial regressions with unknown real-valued exponents and coefficients, and weakly dependent errors, are considered for observations over time, space or space--time. Consistency and asymptotic normality of nonlinear least-squares estimates of the parameters are established. The joint limit distribution is singular, but can be used as a basis for inference on either exponents or coefficients. We discuss issues of implementation, efficiency, potential for improved estimation and possibilities of extension to more general or alternative trending models to allow for irregularly spaced data or heteroscedastic errors; though it focusses on a particular model to fix ideas, the paper can be viewed as offering machinery useful in developing inference for a variety of models in which power law trends are a component. Indeed, the paper also makes a contribution that is potentially relevant to many other statistical models: Our problem is one of many in which consistency of a vector of parameter estimates (which converge at different rates) cannot be established by the usual techniques for coping with implicitly-defined extremum estimates, but requires a more delicate treatment; we present a generic consistency result.

description: The kinetic approach is applied to develop the Drude-Sommerfeld model for studying of the optical and electrical transport properties of spheroidal metallic nanoparticles, when the free electron path is much greater than the particle size. For the nanoparticles of an oblate or a prolate spheroidal shape there has been found the dependence of the dielectric function and the electric conductivity on a number of factors, including the frequency, the particle radius, the spheroidal aspect ratio and the orientation of the electric field with respect to the particle axes. The oscillations of the real and imaginary parts of the dielectric permeability have been found with increasing of particle size at some fixed frequencies or with frequency increasing at some fixed radius of a nanoparticle. The results obtained in kinetic approach are compared with the known from the classical model.

description: Aus dem Westen von Niedersachsen sind bislang nur sehr vereinzelt Fundstellen des Mittelpaläolithikums bekannt, die zudem jeweils nur wenige oder ein einzelnes Artefakt aus Oberflächenfundplätzen ergaben. Anders stellt sich die Situation in den benachbarten Niederlanden dar. Hier wurde durch die Inventarisierung älterer Fundplätze sowie systematische Begehungen das Mittelpaläolithikum während des Weichsel-Glazials wesentlich deutlicher greifbar. Ganz im Südwesten Niedersachsens wird dieses Bild nun ergänzt durch Funde zweier ehrenamtlicher Sammler aus zwei Sandnassabbauten. Über einen Zeitraum von rund 18 Jahren konnten hier Faunenreste von 51, überwiegend kaltzeitlichen, Arten sowie 64 Artefakte geborgen werden. Die Silices lassen sich tendenziell dem späten Mittelpaläolithikum zuweisen. Unter ihnen befinden sich neben Präparations- und Zielabschlägen der Levallois-Technik verschiedene Geräte mit einfacher Kantenpräparation, ein blattförmiger Schaber und ein kleines Keilmesser. Die geologischen Gegebenheiten an den Fundplätzen, die Zusammensetzung der Artefakte und Faunenreste sowie vier 14C-Datierungen deuten darauf hin, dass die Fundstellen bei Gildehaus zeitlich ähnlich anzusetzen sind wie die bekannten mittelpaläolithischen Plätze Salzgitter-Lebenstedt und Lichtenberg im Osten von Niedersachsen.

description: We investigate nano scanning in tapping mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) under quality (Q) control via numerical simulations performed in SIMULINK. We focus on the simulation of whole scan process rather than the simulation of cantilever dynamics and the force interactions between the probe tip and the surface alone, as in most of the earlier numerical studies. This enables us to quantify the scan performance under Q control for different scan settings. Using the numerical simulations, we first investigate the effect of elastic modulus of sample (relative to the substrate surface) and probe stiffness on the scan results. Our numerical simulations show that scanning in attractive regime using soft cantilevers with high Qeff results in a better image quality. We, then demonstrate the trade-off in setting the effective Q factor (Qeff) of the probe in Q control: low values of Qeff cause an increase in tapping forces while higher ones limit the maximum achievable scan speed due to the slow response of the cantilever to the rapid changes in surface profile. Finally, we show that it is possible to achieve higher scan speeds without causing an increase in the tapping forces using adaptive Q control (AQC), in which the Q factor of the probe is changed instantaneously depending on the magnitude of the error signal in oscillation amplitude. The scan performance of AQC is quantitatively compared to that of standard Q control using iso-error curves obtained from numerical simulations first and then the results are validated through scan experiments performed using a physical set-up.

description: The fundamental principle of biological compartmentalisation of cellular life provides the basis for space-time resolved reaction processes. Based on this, intensive work is currently done on the use of interconnected, continuously flowing reaction chambers in order to improve the reaction control and efficiency of chemical syntheses, especially with the inclusion of biocatalysts (so called flow biocatalysis). Therefore, the Institute for Biological Interfaces IBG-1 aims at the formulation of enzyme-based biomaterials and the associated testing of novel gene-encoded coupling systems. The resulting enzyme fusions will be used as modular building blocks for the assembly of catalytically active materials, with different formulations (hydrogels or thin films) and characterized in terms of their immobilization and biocatalytic activity in miniaturized flow reactors. During the process of formulating an optimised biomaterial, we developed and established the self-assembling all-enzyme hydogels (AEHs). These protein materials consist of the two homotetrameric enzymes, (R)-selective alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and the cofactor regenerating glucose 1-dehydrogenase (GDH), that are genetically fused with either the SpyCatcher (SC) or the SpyTag (ST). The AEHs were characterised via dynamic light scattering (DLS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in terms of physical properties. Moreover, the gels showed excellent stereoselectivity, stable conversion rates and high space-time yields (STY) for more than seven days in continuous flow experiments.

description: This thesis studies the potential failure by punching of concrete flat slabs at their connections with corner columns. The design procedures according to the Canadian, American, and European codes are critically reviewed. As well, theories proposed by several researchers are discussed. The writer tested seven full size corner slab-column connections to failure. The connections were initially submitted to a service loading. The column ends were then cycled through deflections of up to 3.0% of the column height to simulate the lateral deformation caused by an earthquake. Finally, the load was increased to failure while maintaining the same eccentricity as the service load. The test parameters that were varied were the provision and extent of the shear reinforced zone, the column cross-sectional shape and the load eccentricity. The shear reinforcement used in the experiments, called shear studs, was in the form of vertical bars with forged heads at one end and welded to a flat strip at the other. It was shown that the provision of these shear studs increased both the strength and ductility of the connections. The experimental failure loads were compared with the connection strengths predicted by the various theories and design equations. Most of the design equations predicted very conservative failure loads. This was due to overestimating a coefficient Yv, which is the fraction of the applied moment resisted by eccentricity of shear. A new equation is proposed to calculate Yv·

description: Bibliography: p. 117-121.
description: Earlier versions of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings exist in a multitude of drafts, outlines and scribbled notes. This is a textual archaeology of these many drafts, analyzing how the textual change over time manifests itself in/through the female characters. The focus is on the process of writing rather than the product. Feminist theory of the construction of the self and narratological theory concerning characters and focalization form a backdrop for this analysis. I begin with a discussion of female absence in Tolkien's Middle-earth, then examine the major female characters-Arwen, Eowyn and Galadriel-represented in The Lord of the Rings. The final chapter investigates textual change connected with minor female characters. There is not only a great diversity in character development, but Tolkien also subverts traditional hierarchy in his depictions of women: Lord cannot be pinned down to any concrete position regarding female characters.

description: Der Text behandelt die Frage, inwiefern Menschenrechtsbildung und Minderheitenrechte gelehrt werden können um Menschen in die Lage zu versetzen für Gleichheit und Gerechtigkeit zwischen Mehrheiten und Minderheitengruppen aktiv und gleichberechtigt einzutreten. Menschenrechtsbildung ist in erster Linie die Befähigung jedes Einzelnen seine Menschenrechte zu kennen und sich für diese sowie die Menschenrechte Anderer einzusetzen. Dazu gehören soziale, wirtschaftliche und kulturelle Menschenrechte ebenso wie politische und zivile, die jedem Menschen zustehen, gleich ob jemand zu einer Minderheitengruppe gehört oder nicht. Um jedoch Gleichheit zwischen den Gruppen zu erreichen müssen zunächst auch die Bedürfnisse der Minderheiten herausgearbeitet werden, um mittels des Bildungssystems diese offen anzugehen. Es gilt, deutlich zu machen, dass von der Einhaltung der Menschenrechte sowohl Minderheiten als auch Mehrheiten in einer Gesellschaft profitieren.

The questions to be asked when referring to human rights and human rights education (HRE) for minorities are - how to use HRE to: 1)minorities to become active participants in societal decision making processes and 2) achieve equality and justice between majority and minority groups in any given society? In this paper I will discuss human rights education as an empowering tool - helping individuals to become aware of human rights and empowering them not only to claim their own basic human rights but also to advocate for the rights of others. It is this empowerment and action combined that helps to bring about equality and justice for all. For minorities and other groups and individuals in society, this means being knowledgeable about each others' political, civil, economic and cultural rights, customs and history so that there is respect for, and recognition of, difference. To achieve this, it is important to identify the problems faced by minorities and the needs of these groups and to endeavour to overcome short-comings in education systems so that diversity in society is seen as a positive thing - something which is beneficial to all.

The Rights of the Child as a Challenge to Human Rights Education
Creators: name: Krappmann, Lothar
Publisher: name: sowi-online e.V., Bielefeld
Year: 2006
Subjects: -

description: Often human rights education of children does not include children's rights. Children get the impression that human rights are rights of adults and are mainly violated in faraway regions of the world. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) ratified by almost all states has clarified that human rights are valid for children as well, that they have a right to be educated about these rights and to claim these children's human rights. This step has opened a new approach to children's human rights education, because rights of children belong to the social reality which children experience and, therefore, are not only theoretically learned, but can also be actively implemented. The article argues that the active exercise of their rights challenges children's evolving capacities and promotes their insight in children's and human rights.

description: Interlayered tonalitic and mafic gneisses from the Kapuskasing Structural Zone have been metamorphosed to upper-amphibolite/granulite facies. The mafic gneisses are heterogeneous, comprising diopside-garnet-plagioclasesphene- rich (Di-Grt-Pl-Spn) layers, hornblende-plagioclase-rich (Hbl-Pl) layers, and all gradations in between. Plagioclase-quartz-rich (Pl-Qtz) leucosomes occur in a variety of textures in the mafic gneiss, ranging in scale from ?m to dm. Leucosome is generally associated with the hornblende-rich layers and gives the rock a migmatitic appearance. A combination of outcrop textures, microscope textures, modal mineralogy, and mineral analyses suggest that hornblende and plagioclase reacted to form diopside, garnet, sphene and trondhjemitic leucosome. Mass balance analysis, using matrix-algebraic techniques, resulted in the following continuous migmatite-forming reaction consistent with textural, modal and chemical data: Hbl + 0.95 MgFe.1 + Ca-Pl + 0.16 NaSiCa_1A1_1 + 3.42 Qtz => => 1.41 Grt + 1.13 Di+ 0.19 Spn + 1.45 Pl-Qtz (leucosome) Textural, mineralogical and chemical evidence suggest that the plagioclasequartz leucosomes and films (micro-leucosomes) may represent crystallized trondhjemitic melt that formed according to the above dehydration-melting reaction. This is consistent with estimated P-T conditions of 740°C and 9 kbar (=27 km depth) for the KSZ migmatites.

More generally, a rights-based approach to education might refer to three dimensions; access to education, educational content and educational processes. This article aims to explore the effectiveness of a specific human rights education project that has been piloted in Northern Ireland's post-primary schools as an example of a project that addresses educational content and processes in a flexible manner. Conclusions are drawn relating to factors facilitating the successful development of a rights-based approach to education and of human rights education projects.

description: User onboarding for Graphical User Interface (GUI) applications usually involve walkthrough tutorials explaining various UI elements, functions, and navigation screens. These First-time User Experiences (FTUEs) are crucial in determining any subsequent user interaction. The purpose of this study has been explored by eliciting answers to two research questions in specific. The study primarily investigates a user's perception of a tailored onboarding experience. Following this, the impact of these tutorials on the user's performance has also been used as a way to verify their effectiveness.
 The emergence of educational crowdsourcing platforms has revolutionized traditional models of teaching and learning by engaging students in collaborative, real-world problem-solving activities. However, the success of crowdsourcing platforms in education largely depends on their ability to provide a positive and engaging user experience, particularly for first-time users. As a part of another ongoing study, the need for an engaging onboarding tutorial to educate users on the concept of worked-out examples and peer evaluations was evident. Thus, the interventions developed in this study are built upon a crowdsourcing platform designed to collect worked-out examples from university students.
 Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods, this study seeks to provide insights into the design of effective onboarding tutorials in the context of crowdsourcing educational resources. There have been numerous attempts to devise effective onboarding strategies. For instance, the interplay of narration and animation has been utilized as a way to gamify and design engaging FTUEs. The design choices for tailoring the experience were hence determined through Rapid Iterative Testing and Evaluation (RITE) methods. Analysis of the experimental data shows that there is a statistically significant improvement in the FTUE when users are presented with a tailored onboarding tutorial. Their usage patterns also tend to improve post their interactions with the tutorials. These results hope to contribute to a better understanding of user engagement in FTUEs, thus paving the way for furthering product adoption and value metrics on a broad scale.

description: We have developed an FX-architecture digital spectro-correlator for the Atacama Compact Array (ACA) of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The correlator is able to simultaneously process four pairs of dual polarization signals with the bandwidth of 2 GHz, which are received by up to sixteen antennas. It can calculate auto- and cross-correlation spectra including cross-polarization in all combinations of all the antennas, and output correlation spectra with flexible spectral configuration such as multiple frequency ranges and multiple frequency resolutions. Its spectral dynamic range is estimated to be higher than 10^4 relative to Tsys from processing results of thermal noise for eight hours with a typical correlator configuration. The sensitivity loss is also confirmed to be 0.9 % with the same configuration. In this paper, we report the detailed design of the correlator and the verification results of the developed hardware.

description: Viewed in the context of the United Nations Decade for Human Rights Education (1995-2004), it is clear that Paulo Freire's "Education for Liberation" and Human Rights Education (as it develops), have two core concepts of participation and empowerment in common. Participation is seen as the active involvement of individuals and groups in social, economic or political activities, while empowerment is viewed as the strengthening of individuals and groups and their liberation from oppressive conditions which crush human dignity. This article examines the development of Human Rights Education (HRE) which grew from UN International Human Rights Conventions, and which resulted in a common understanding of and basis for HRE. Not many authors (e.g. in Europe or the United States of America) currently involved in the development of human rights education rely on Paulo Freire's work as their main source of inspiration. In Latin America, however, the work of Paulo Freire is well-established and is referred to in current education discourse and practice. This article endeavours to link some of the core concepts of Freire's work to human rights education with a view to understanding education as a process of liberation involving dignity, dialogue and dissent. To this end, Paulo Freire's work is examined from the perspective of the German educational theorist and philosopher Gottfried Mergner who developed a theory on the social limits to learning and critically discussed Freire's work.

description: GS2 is an initial value gyrokinetic simulation code developed to study low-frequency turbulence in magnetized plasma. It is parallelised using MPI with the simulation domain decomposed across tasks. The optimal domain decomposition is non-trivial, and complicated by the different requirements of the linear and non-linear parts of the calculations. GS2 users currently choose a data layout, and are guided towards processor count that are efficient for linear calculations. These choices can, however, lead to data decompositions that are relatively inefficient for the non-linear calculations. We have analysed the performance impact of the data decompositions on the non-linear calculation and associated communications. This has helped us to optimise the decomposition algorithm by using unbalanced data layouts for the non-linear calculations whilst maintaining the existing decompositions for the linear calculations, which has completely eliminated communications for parts of the non-linear simulation and improved performance by up to 15% for a representative simulation.

description: This thesis provides an in-depth look at the activities of the Immigration Restriction League (Boston). Encompassing the years 1894 to 1924, the thesis analyzes the League's impact on American immigration legislation. Chapter One discusses the background of the League members, and the formation of the League. Moreover, this chapter examines the League's "methodology," the means by which the League was able to procure public and government support. Chapter Two explores the League's fight for the enactment of a literacy test as a means to exclude immigrants; the literacy test was, after a long fight, finally included in the 1917 Immigration Act. In Chapter Three, the League's involvement in the eugenics movement is detailed; the amalgamation of the "science" of eugenics with the immigration restriction movement resulted in the 1924 Immigration Act. A decisive victory for the League, the 1924 Act virtually terminated immigration of southern and eastern Europeans while favouring northwestern Europeans.

The effect of electrostatic shielding using invisibility cloak

description: The effect of electrostatic shielding for a spherical invisibility cloak with arbitrary charges inside is investigated. Our result reveals that the charge inside the cloak is a crucial factor to determine the detection. When charged bodies are placed inside the cloak with an arbitrary distribution, the electric fields outside are purely determined by the total charges just as the fields of a point charge at the center of the cloak. As the total charges reduce to zero, the bodies can not be detected. On the other hand, if the total charges are nonzero, the electrostatic potential inside an ideal cloak tends to infinity. For unideal cloaks, this embarrassment is overcome, while they still have good behaviors of shielding. In addition, the potential across the inner surface of an ideal cloak is discontinuous due to the infinite polarization of the dielectric, however it can be alternatively interpreted as the dual Meissner effect of a dual superconductive layer with a surface magnetic current.

description: Headquarters location theory identifies several factors which are expected to influence the location of corporate head offices. Some of these factors directly affect the costs of operation and basic profitability of the company, such as the cost of office space, tax levels, the availability of a qualified labour, the cost oflabour, the proximity to corporate activities, and the agglomeration with other services and companies. This study applies headquarters location theory to Canada's energy sector. During the last 27 years, the concentration of energy company headquarters has shifted from Toronto to Calgary. The regression model developed here tests the extent to which those factors identified in the literature appear to be statistically significant for the headquarters relocation experience in Canada's energy sector. The results of the tests suggest that certain factors do appear to significantly influence relocation decisions. Interviews conducted with recently relocated energy companies correspond closely to these conclusions.

description: This article examines Human Rights Education vis-a-vis the challenges of the emerging human rights of the 21st century. It discusses the difficult situation of HRE in the uncertain and insecure times of globalization and permanent violence particularly after the September 11 attacks. In spite of these unfavorable circumstances, it can be concluded that HRE has gained ground in the agenda of NGO´s to become a demand formulated hand in hand with the fight for democracy and peace. Due to the fact that human rights are the result of an unfinished process under permanent transformation, the article underlines emerging human rights as a dimension of human rights (education) and one of the challenges in the 21st century.
