A Study on Financial Analysis of Kamarajar Port Limited Using Ratio Analysis
Creators: name: Sriram M, Muthumani S, Dr. Nachiappan Senthilnathan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This study conducts a comprehensive financial analysis of Kamarajar Port Limited (KPL) using ratioanalysis to evaluate its profitability, liquidity, solvency, and operational efficiency over a five-year period(2019–2024). The analysis employs key financial ratios, including net profit margin, return on equity(ROE), return on capital employed (ROCE), current ratio, quick ratio, debt-equity ratio, and working capitalturnover, derived from secondary data such as balance sheets, income statements, and annual reports.Findings reveal that KPL demonstrates strong profitability, with ROE peaking at 18.55% (2021–2022) andROCE improving steadily to 20.31% (2023–2024), alongside a robust interest coverage ratio (11.82),indicating effective debt servicing capability. However, liquidity remains a concern, with current and quickratios consistently below ideal thresholds (0.59 and 0.57 in 2023–2024), reflecting challenges in meetingshort-term obligations. The study also highlights over-reliance on debt financing (debt-equity ratio of 37.5)and negative working capital, signaling inefficiencies in managing operational liquidity. To address theseissues, recommendations include reducing short-term liabilities, boosting liquid assets, diversifyingrevenue streams, optimizing inventory management, and enhancing equity financing. The findingsunderscore the need for KPL to balance growth initiatives with financial stability, providing actionableinsights for stakeholders to improve long-term sustainability and operational resilience in the capitalintensive port sector.
Suicide postvention in secondary schools: A Delphi study
Creators: name: Cox, Georgina Rose
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Suicide of school-aged adolescents is a significant problem, with serious implications for students and staff alike. This thesis employed the expert consensus (Delphi) methodology to produce a set of guidelines, to assist secondary schools in English speaking countries in developing a plan to respond to a student suicide.
Experts in the field of suicide postvention frequently commented on the guidelines needing to be flexible for each school community. These are the first set of postvention guidelines produced worldwide for secondary schools that are based on expert opinion using the Delphi method, and can be used by schools, education departments, and non-government organisations.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Micro ribosomal nucleic acids in marine halophilic bacteria and barley plants were studied in order to investigate the origin, evolution and possible stress responses to changes to external environmental conditions across the organic world kingdoms. The comparative phylogenetic analysis based on whole genome sequences showed a high level of relatedness (more than 50%) of micro ribosomal nucleic acids in environmental prokaryotic organisms and plants. Predicted myeloblastosis transcription factor was identified during salt stress exposure in barley, and could be a suitable salt tolerant candidate for the improvement of the growth of crops being cultivated in saline soils.
Periodic Universal Gravitation Resulting in the Phenomenon of Dark Matter and Dark Energy (Recently)
Creators: name: Li, Xiang
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2014
Subjects: Astrophysics

description: The research on the periodic universal gravitation aims to explain the phenomenon of dark matter and dark energy through periodic universal gravitation. Periodic gravitation is different from Newton’s universal gravitation, since the coefficient of periodic gravitation is the difference of a constant and a cosine function of cosmic age, while the coefficient of Newton’s universal gravitation is a constant. Periodic gravitation and Newton’s universal gravitation are not contradictory, and the latter is approximately correct for a period of time which is decided by acceptance of errors. In the first half of period of cosmic life, the universe expands from the big bang to the maximum. In the later half of cosmic life, cosmic contraction occurs. Energy provided by periodic gravitation is the energy behind cosmic expansion or contraction. Such energy is not an unknown dark energy once it is identified. The space expansion acceleration between the star and the galaxy center is always negative, and then at any time, between the star and the galaxy center exists a mutually-approaching vaccum energy, which is equivalent to dark matter in the center of galaxy. Because expanding acceleration is negative, the expanding speed of space between two stars is always decreasing, so the star under observation is always pulling away from the view direction. Periodic universal gravitation results in periodic cosmic evolution, therefore the end of a period of universe is the beginning of a new one.

description: Plasma treatment is often used to alter cell interaction with polymer surfaces used in biomedical application. The influence of surface hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity on human mammary epithelial cell (HMEC) proliferation and adhesion of protein albumin to plasma treated polystyrene (PS) was studied. The PS surface was made hydrophilic or hydrophobic by treatment either in O2 or CF4 plasma. The rate of protein adhesion was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) after incubation of PS in albumin solution for different periods, while cell viability and morphology was studied by MTT assay and scanning electron microscope (SEM). XPS measurements have shown that the quantity of adsorbed protein was higher for both plasma treated samples than for the untreated one. No significant difference regarding protein adhesion on hydrophilic or hydrophobic plasma treated surface was found by XPS. Contrary, the results for cell proliferation showed much better proliferation on hydrophilic surface.

description: This article compares the use of risk-increasing and risk-reducing production inputs with the experimentally measured risk attitudes of farmers. For this purpose, a Just-Pope production function indicates production inputs’ influence on output risk, and a Holt-Laury lottery is used to measure farmers’ risk attitudes. We then test whether more risk averse farmers use more risk-reducing and less risk-increasing production inputs. To do so, a unique data set which includes 185 small-scale rubber farmers on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia, is used. The Just-Pope production function suggests that higher fertiliser usage has a risk-reducing effect, whereas higher herbicide usage has a risk-increasing effect. Comparing this with the outcome of a Holt-Laury lottery, we found that more risk averse farmers use more fertiliser (risk-reducing) and less herbicides (risk-increasing). The consistency of these results can be interpreted as reinforcing the external validity of measuring risk attitude with a Holt-Laury lottery.
Nonattachment and nonattachment to self: the role of letting go in optimal psychological health
Creators: name: Whitehead, Richard William
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This thesis provides a comprehensive investigation of the benefits of the Buddhist construct 'nonattachment', defined as the absence of fixation on experience needing to be any way in particular. The results showed that being more nonattached is related to greater psychological and subjective well-being, and increased wisdom, self-actualisation and self-transcendence. Further, this thesis provided the first qualitative investigation of high and low levels of nonattachment, and created a new measure of 'nonattachment to self'. The findings provide detailed insight into how Buddhist concepts such as nonattachment can play in important role in Western conceptualisations of mental health.

description: This study examined the factors affecting Vietnam’s rice export value in the transitional period of 2011–2021 using panel data of 45 importers comprising 90% of Vietnam’s rice export value. The generalized least square model was used for estimation, and the results reveal that the factors of world rice export prices, importing country’s population, membership in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, European–Vietnam Free Trade Agreement, and multilateral or bilateral relationship positively affect export value. However, the importing country’s GDP and self-produced food output and Vietnam’s inflation negatively influence rice export turnover. Consequently, several policy recommendations are suggested.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Drawing on an integrated theoretical approach encompassing corporate social performance, organisational practice transfer, institutional theory and resource-based views, this research explores how multinational subsidiaries adapt their corporate social responsibility practices in Vietnam. This research may benefit multinational subsidiary communities in Vietnam and other developing countries, which still struggle to gain legitimacy and competitiveness in their host countries. The research also responds to the gap in literature on corporate social responsibility, corporate social performance and organisational practice transfer and the lack of multi-theory and multi-level analysis of corporate social responsibility of multinational companies in developing countries.

description: UAV State estimation is fundamental aspect across a wide range of applications, including robot navigation, autonomous driving, virtual reality, and augmented reality (AR). The proposed research emphasizes the vital role of robust state estimation in ensuring the safe navigation of autonomous UAVs. In this paper, we developed an optimization-based odometry state estimation framework that is compatible with multiple sensor setups. Our evaluation of the system is conducted using inhouse integrated UAV platform outfitted with multiple sensors including stereo cameras, an IMU, LiDAR sensors and GPS-RTK for ground truth comparison. The algorithm delivers robust and consistent UAV state estimation in various conditions including illumination changes, feature or structureless environment or even during degraded Global Positioning System (GPS) signals or total signal loss, where single sensor SLAM mostly fails. The experimental findings demonstrate that the proposed method is superior in compare to current state-of-the-art techniques.

In the study the way some of the architects, chosen within the period beginning from the early 20th century to our day, made use of the media and the process in which their works were converted into popular objects and presented to the public were examined with the sampling method.
It is clear that by having the works of the popular architects different additional values are obtained. Also to have the works of these architects, who are popular and followed carefully by the certain segments of the society, makes it easier to obtain an income out of the product created urgently.
Path dependence – a framework for understanding active transport implementation
Creators: name: Wright, Karen
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Path dependence theory is used to analyse why active transport (walking and cycling) has not increased signinficantly, relative to the dominance of car transport in Australia. The case study of Canberra is utilised, with research demonstrating that historical policy settings have contributed to a built form predominantly supporting car travel. However, transport and urban policy rhetoric has been increasingly focused towards active transport since the year 2000 and suggests a shift. A critical juncture or shift from car-based travel path dependency may be considered established when travel activity and active transport infrastructure investment visibly outweigh that directed to car travel.

description: The elastic and failure properties of a typical clay, illite, are investigated using molecular simulation. We employ a reactive (ReaxFF) and a non-reactive (ClayFF) force field to assess the elastic properties of the clay. As far as failure is concerned, ReaxFF was used throughout the study; however, some calculations were also performed with ClayFF. A crack parallel to the clay layers is found to have low fracture resistance when submitted to a tensile loading perpendicular to the crack. The mechanism of both yield and fracture failures is decohesion in the interlayer space. In contrast, under shear loading, the nanoscale failure mechanism is a stick-slip between clay layers. No fracture propagation is observed as the clay layers slide on top of each other. The low fracture resistance in mode I and the stick-slip failure in mode II are both the consequence of the lack of chemical bonds between clay layers where the cohesion is provided by non-covalent interactions. This work, which provides a description of the failure of clays at the microscopic scale, is the first step towards describing the failure of clays at a larger scale where the polycrystalline distribution of clay grains must be taken into account.

Responsible Consolidation of Customary Lands: A Framework for Land Reallocation
Creators: name: Asiama, Kwabena

name: Da Silva Mano, Andre
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Land reallocation is an important step of land consolidation where farmland parcels are reorganised and redistributed. Most current land reallocation approaches focus on the technical aspects, at the expense of the social, cultural, economic, and political factors which are important on customary lands. This paper develops an approach for land reallocation to support responsible land consolidation on customary lands taking these factors into consideration. Using the process model approach, we identify the key characteristics of customary land tenure and the general requirements for land reallocation of these lands; from which a land reallocation approach is developed. This is subsequently applied to a case study in Northern Ghana. The results show that even though the approach is successful to the extent that land fragmentation (physical and legal) is significantly reduced in the study area; social land mobility, land tenure and cultural practices hinder the application of the land reallocation as this would either increase legal or physical land fragmentation.

Unlocking the innovation potential of philanthropic foundations
Creators: name: Brown, Catherine
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The value of philanthropic foundations' contribution to society has been discussed for 20 years. One important aspect of foundations' value is their ability to catalyse and support social innovation. Foundations are often immune from the external pressures that cause businesses or even government to innovate. Innovation includes inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes. Innovation occurs internally through innovative practice, processes and investment in innovation capability and externally through the support of innovative grantmaking, initiatives and investing.
This study developed an innovation index and examined 29 organisational attributes of foundations to identify those that influence a foundation to embrace innovation.

Publisher: name: International Journal on Food System Dynamics
Year: 2024
Subjects: Wine industry; business model; competitive dynamics.

description: Prosecco wine has become one of the widest diffused sparkling wine with 627 million bottles produced in 2021 compared to 140 million bottles produced in 2010. The spread of the product is due to a rapid growth in production capacity that has allowed a large amount of product to be placed on the market at very competitive prices. The growth of the sector has led to a radical change in the characteristics of supply with the emergence of companies with a business model based on trading, not integrated in wine production, focused on bottling and selling the product. The paper analyzes, using a System Dynamics approach, the process that determined the affirmation of the trading business model by identifying the critical variables and the relevant feedback loops structures. Resource dynamic analysis allowed us to evaluate the long-term sustainability of the dominant business model.

Audiotape cassette
Creators: name: Wright, Robin
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: THE AUDIOTAPE CASSETTE arrived on the scene in the same year the Beatles released their first album. Before this, between the 1930s and the 1960s, amateur use ofaudio recording technologies had developed slowly, via wire or reel-to-reel tape technologies or with various attempts at cartridge systems like the 8-track. It wasn't until Philips unveiled their prototype audiotape cassette at the 1963 Berlin Radio Show that home recording really took off. Suddenly, for the beat generation, sound reproduction technology was available to everyone. The audiotape cassette was easy to use, and widely available to everyday consumers. Initial problems with sound quality were resolved during the 1970s, and the audiotape cassette soon replaced the 8-track tape cartridge as the media format of choice for Baby Boomers. Between the jukebox of the 1950s and the Spotify playlists of the 2 1st century, these simple, plastic media objects were the low-tech forerunners of our modern digital media platforms. And they created the framework for music on what we now know as user-generated content sites, social media, and internet streaming. The development of the audiotape cassette gave music consumers a new, very personal way to interact with recorded music. Along with affordable playback equipment—including battery-operated portable player/recorders, the in-car deck, the Sony Walkman, and the boom box aka ghetto blaster—the cassette tape revolutionized music for the masses. Users could cheaply and easily design and program their own interaction with recorded music, and create an object that reflected their own personal media identity. With an audiotape cassette, fans could change the order of play, add sounds and effects, draw or write on the label, and take and play the tape anywhere. Most importantly, they could create an individual expression of their own musical experience that could be shared with others. The homemade mix tape became a standard trope of musical communication, connecting with friends and family at home, in the car, at a party, or on the beach. The choice of what would go onto a tape was a matter of serious import for romantics across the globe. As they recognized that every mix tape is a love letter. But this newfound freedom to interact with recorded music had profound implications for the commercial music recording industry.

Spatial and temporal patterns of UHI intensity in Australian cities and their relation to climatic factors
Creators: name: Al-Obaidi, Ilham
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: One of the major phenomena associated with climate change is the urban heat island effect (UHI). The UHI effect refers to the warming urban areas relative to neighboring rural sites. This research quantifies the temporal and spatial aspects of UHIs in five Australian cities. The research shows that UHIs are ubiquitous across and demonstrates where and when UHIs are most pronounced. The work can be used to help develop approriate mitigation strategies for UHIs.

description: Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) plays critical roles in cell differentiation, and its mechanism is controlled by exogenous and endogenous ligands. However, structures of AhR and its complex with ligand have not been determined by experimental structural biology. We here obtain stable structures of the complexes with rat AhR (rAhR) and some ligands in water by molecular simulations based on homology modelling, protein–ligand docking, classical molecular mechanics optimisation and ab initio fragment molecular orbital (FMO) calculations. In addition, the binding affinities and the specific interactions between rAhR and the ligands are investigated by ab initio FMO calculations and biological experiments. The experiments reveal the dependence of the rAhR-mediated transcriptional activation on the ligand binding. On the other hand, the results of FMO calculations elucidate that the exogenous ligands interact with many residues of rAhR, while the endogenous ligands interact specifically with a few residues, and that the side chain of Gln381 of rAhR interacts strongly with the oxygen atom located at the centre of the ligand. Furthermore, we evaluate the binding energies between rAhR and the ligands by the FMO method and compare them with the transcriptional activation obtained by the experiment.
Farm abandonment consequences: Insights from German farm advisors impacting farms and rural areas
Creators: name: Kühl, Kathrin Marie
Publisher: name: International Journal on Food System Dynamics
Year: 2024
Subjects: Farm succession; farm abandonment; structural change in agriculture; expert interviews

description: Farm succession can be a challenge for continuity, often leading to abandonment in the absence of a successor. This study investigates the relationship between farm abandonment and succession based on 46 qualitative interviews with agricultural advisors from three German regions. The aim is to uncover the reasons for abandonment, changes in farm management and associated consequences, providing insights into the phenomenon of farm abandonment. The analysis findings contribute to the understanding of the implications for farms and rural areas. This provides valuable insights into identifying effective strategies for maintaining the sustainability of the farming sector and preserving the attractiveness of rural areas.

Investigation of Geopolymer as a Sustainable Alternative Binder for 3D Concrete Printing
Creators: name: Bong, Shin Hau
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: 3D concrete printing (3DCP) is an emerging additive construction process to fabricate complex concrete structures without expensive formworks. There are two main challenges including (1) high ordinary Portland cement content in the typical printable concretes and (2) incorporation of conventional steel reinforcement into the 3D printing process. To address the sustainability and the structural applications of 3DCP, this doctoral research aims to develop a sustainable 3D printable geopolymer concrete for printing large-scale structural members. In addition, this study focuses to reinforce the printed geopolymer concretes by fibre reinforcement.
Cranial anatomy of the Late Jurassic dwarf sauropod Europasaurus holgeri (Dinosauria, Camarasauromorpha): ontogenetic changes and size dimorphism

description: Sauropods were the most successful herbivorous group of dinosaurs during the Mesozoic era. Despite their supremacy as reflected in the fossil record, sauropod skulls are very rare and current knowledge of skull anatomy is based on just a few taxa. Juvenile skull bones are even rarer than adult skulls; thus, our understanding of their morphology and ontogenetic changes is limited. The recent discovery of several adult and juvenile specimens of a Late Jurassic taxon from Germany, Europasaurus holgeri, extends our knowledge of sauropod skull anatomy. A total of 123 skull bones, representing at least 14 skulls, were examined, described and compared to other taxa. The skull material includes several individuals of various ontogenetic stages. Because size alone is not sufficient to determine the morphological ontogenetic stage (MOS), size-independent characters were used to stage the bone elements. Detailed studies of the skull bones proved that the material represents two morphotypes, independent of ontogenetic stage. Since the original description of Europasaurus, new skull material has been found, and an updated skull reconstruction of an adult individual is presented here. All the autapomorphic characters of Europasaurus recognized in the skull (i.e. anteroposteriorly long and lateromedially narrow frontal; presence of postparietal fenestra; large participation of the jugal to the ventral rim of the skull and the orbit; presence of a postparietal foramen and single optic foramen) are plesiomorphic characters of basal sauropodomorphs and/or present in embryos and juvenile sauropods. Therefore, we consider that in Europasaurus these characters evolved through paedomorphosis, which resulted in the dwarf condition of this taxon.

description: Over the past two decades, China's remarkable economic growth has brought forth opportunities and challenges, including unsustainable food systems. Policies are pivotal in driving sustainable development, facilitating a balance between food supply, consumer demands, and environmental goals, thereby promoting a more sustainable food system. This study delves into the role of national policies from 2000 to 2022 in addressing these challenges, intending to reveal policy characteristics and potential impacts on agriculture and food. The research employs heat-map analysis, neural networks analysis, and topic analysis to explore policy concepts and themes, with findings underscoring the significance of rural development and food safety within agri-food policies. The presence of policy duplication and complementarity across different ministries provides valuable insights into the intricate dynamics of policy and their implications for sustainable agri-food systems in China and global sustainability endeavors.
