Sullam al-Mustafidin : a ladder for the zealous
Creators: name: Todd, Elizabeth Anne
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1975

description: Sullam al-Mustafidin is an anonymous Muslim treatise , a rendering into Malay of a work by Ibrahim al-Kurani(d, 1690 AD), entitled Al-Sharh al-Saghir. This latter work is an abridged edition of his own Qasd al-Sabil which is a prose commentary on a creed composed in verse by his teacher, Ahmad al-Qushashi (d. 1660 AD). This creed, Manzumat fi1-Tawbid provides the skeletal framework of the Sullam. The Malay rendering has been associated with Abdurra'uf of Singkel, who lived in Aceh during the 17th century. This thesis is an "edition" of the Sullam in Malay with quotations in Arabic. I have included brief background information and a translation of Chapters 1 to 7 inclusive, since the language of this section is rather specialised. It concerns the fundamental dogmatics of Islam, and may be of use to the student of Islamic theology. A detailed study of t he Manzumat and i t s commentaries, and of the subject matter of the Sullam, requires a broader frame of reference than a Master's thesis. Besides, the "editing" of manuscripts is a pre-requisite to fur ther devel opment in this field .

description: In the brain, every cortical inter-area feedforward projection shares a reciprocal feedback connection. Despite its pervasive nature in the brain, our understanding of the functional role of neural feedback in form perception remains incomplete, particularly in behaving animals. This problem is addressed in humans with a novel form completion paradigm. Seven subjects (5 female) had their EEG waveforms analysed using three linear models showing non-significant differences between stimulus conditions designed to produce differences by manipulating neural feedback to V1. Two of these subjects (one female), in addition to EEG waveforms, had combined magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI) cortical maps that allowed anatomically close areas such as V1 and V2 to have their signals decomposed and neural feedback inferred. Differences between stimulus conditions arose once signals had been divided into V1 and V2. Significant differences (p < .05) for one subject in V1 and V2 suggests cortical interactions at 100ms and 350ms. This suggests the form completion paradigm has utility at investigating the influence of the V2 far receptive field surround on V1, given future given signal to noise issues are resolved.

D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 7.12 mm. Pronotum and elytra opaque, rest of the body shiny. Head blackish-brown, pronotum and elytra brown, abdomen yellowish-red, posterior margin of the first to fourth free abdominal tergites brown, fifth free tergite reddishbrown, antennae blackish-brown with the two basal antennomeres reddish-brown and apex of the eleventh yellow, legs yellowish-red. Second antennomere shorter than the first, third longer than the second, fourth to tenth longer than wide. Eyes shorter than the postocular region in dorsal view. Reticulation of the fore-body evident, that of the abdomen very transverse and superficial. Puncturation of the head evident, fairly close and absent on a narrow longitudinal median band and on the frons, that of pronotum and elytra very dense and deep, that of the abdomen fine and fairly close. Pronotum with median sulcus at the bottom of an ample longitudinal concavity and with feeble lateral impressions. Spermatheca: Fig. 178.
 C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The spermatheca of the new species shares some of the characters of the spermatheca of D. perdensa PACE, 2004 from Thailand. Both have a triangular appendix on the distal bulb of the spermatheca, and the proximal portion of the spermatheca is folded. However the intermediary portion of the spermatheca of the new species is much dilated near the proximal bulb, which is not the case in D. perdensa. The apical umbilicus of the distal bulb of the spermatheca of the new species is narrow: 0.024 mm wide, whereas in D. perdensa it measures 0.036 mm.
E t y m o l o g y: The name of the new species, meaning "snake head" refers to the shape of the distal bulb of the spermatheca.

description: Process waste management and recycling is a big challenge faced by Iron and Steel industry. Contamination of process wastes with material such as zinc, lead etc is the most common problem existing retarding effective realization of valuable minerals from wastes for reuse and recycling. The steel plant wastes consists of sludges and dusts which have iron valuables which can be recycled helping conservation of natural resources. The contamination of iron ore dust by zinc is one of the common problems faced in BF, SMS. The Zn during smelting operations is evaporated as zinc oxide (ZnO2) and deposits on the fine iron ore particles which exit through top gases. In order to recycle these material and to reduce the recirculation of the Zn into the process, treatment of these material for separation of zn coated particles is a must. The Zn coating on the fine iron particles is in micron level and removal of Zn by chemical or thermal processes is uneconomical due to the high volume of such mass. Therefore, the most common treatment adopted is hydro cycloning of the material. However, since the Zn coated iron particle and pure iron particles are near gravity material and their drag force response in the cyclone is similar and hence separation is difficult. To make the separation efficient, the drag force response of Zn coated and other material is manipulated through pressure drop by optimizing the spigot, vortex ratio. The pressure drop is also a function of particle sizes in the feed. A two stage cyclone process has been developed to process the feed with an optimized spigot to vortex ratio in the range of 1.6-2. The optimized process has been extensively tested in the lab. The separation efficiency of > 80 % has been achieved. The present paper deals with the salient features of mechanism, forces acting on the particles and the measures taken for optimizing the cyclone parameters. The above measures help in effective recovery of iron valuables from process waste and cost effectiveness and mitigating environmental issues of waste management.
Minimal group presentations : a computational approach

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1991
Subjects: subject: Representations of groups
subject: Schur multiplier

description: The method of describing a group by means of generators and relations is an old one. A question which arises when using this method is what is the minimum number of relations required to describe a given group. Schur (1907) provided a lower bound for the number of relations required, in terms of a group invariant known as the Schur multiplicator. It would be interesting to know which finite groups have a presentation achieving the Schur bound on the number of relations required, but this remains an open question. It is known that the Schur bound is not achievable for some finite groups. We consider the problem of finding a minimal presentations for a number of finite groups. In Chapter Three and Appendix A we give minimal presentations for the groups of order less than or equal to 84 and minimal presentations for some families of groups having composition length less than five and order greater than 84. Some of the techniques for working with finitely presented groups are illustrated by proving that the groups defined by some families of deficiency zero presentations are finite. In Chapter Four, we give presentations for several finite groups having soluble length five and six, and deficiency zero presentations for two infinite families of finite groups, one family having soluble length six, and the other having soluble length five; we also give a deficiency one presentation for a finite preimage of a group having soluble length seven. Finally, in Chapter Five we give some minimal presentations for some quasi-simple groups.

description: The work in this thesis was carried out in the area of computational group theory. The latter is concerned with designing algorithm s and developing their practical implementations for investigating problem s regarding groups. An important class of groups are finite soluble groups. These can be described in a computationally convenient way by power conjugate presentations. In practice, however, they are usually supplied differently. The aim of this thesis is to propose algorithm s for computing power conjugate presentations for finite soluble groups. This is achieved in two different ways. One of the ways in which a finite soluble group is often supplied is as a quotient of a finitely presented group. T he first p art of the thesis is concerned with designing an algorithm to compute a power conjugate presentation for a finite soluble group given in this way. T he theoretical background for the algorithm is provided and its practicality is investigated on an implementation. T he second p a rt of the thesis describes the theoretical aspects of an algorithm to compute all pow er conjugate presentations for a certain class of finite soluble groups of a given order.

description: This work uses vector field inequalities (VFI) to prevent robot self-collisions and collisions with the workspace. Differently from previous approaches, the method is suitable for both velocity and torque-actuated robots. We propose a new distance function and its corresponding Jacobian in order to generate a VFI to limit the angle between two Plücker lines. This new VFI is used to prevent both undesired end-effector orientations and violation of joints limits. The proposed method is evaluated in a realistic simulation and on a real humanoid robot, showing that all constraints are respected while the robot performs a manipulation task.

subject: Bangladesh Statistics, Vital

description: The purpose of this thesis is to study differential female nuptiality patterns in Bangladesh using data from the 1976 Bangladesh Fertility Survey. This survey was the first of its kind in Bangladesh to collect elaborate information on marriage, dissolution and remarriage. Prior to this study little was known about nuptiality differentials in Bangladesh. Age at marriage is increasing in both rural and urban areas of Bangladesh. Education levels have the greatest effect on age at marriage, and religion and level of education have maximum impact on marriage dissolution. Age at marriage and probability of early marriage disruption are inversely related in Bangladesh. Some sociodemographic characteristics of the survey population are also examined by using the household information section of the survey questionnaire.

Fertility differentials in two provinces of Papua New Guinea : East New Britain and Chimbu

description: An attempt has been made in this thesis to study fertility differentials in two provinces of Papua New Guinea, namely, East New Britain (ENB) and Chimbu (CHBU)'. The basic data utilized are drawn from the unpublished 1971 census tabulations. The analysis is confined to women within the 15-49 age interval. Fertility differentials are examined according to two.variables - urbanization and level of education. The findings of the study indicate a higher level of fertility in the ENB province than the CHBU province. Levels of education and urbanization are observed to be lower in the CHBU province than the ENB province. Further observations in the CHBU province indicate that there is a lower proportion of literate males and females than in ENB province. The level of modernization, i.e. the relative degree of change from subsistence village living toward the substantial commercialisation, where a variety of new forms of consumption and services is available, is also observed to be lower in the CHBU province than the ENB province. These observations comply with conditions which are normally conducive to high fertility level, but in comparison with ENB province this does not seem to be the case. The observed fertility levels after the application of adjustment factors (Brass and Coale, 1968) tend to be closer in the two provinces. The relatively low fertility level observed in the CHBU province is considered from demographic and socio-cultural points of view. Other observations reveal that in both provinces there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between level of education of women and the number of children being born to them. This finding is consistent with that observed in Indonesia by Hull and Hull (1977, pp. 43-57) and in Papua New Guinea by McDevitt (1980).
The devotional poetics of Kabir : a study of Kabir's poetry and its tradition with an annotated translation of his songs
Creators: name: Mishra, Vijay
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981
Subjects: subject: Kabir, 15th cent. Poetry

description: This thesis advances the argument that the nature of devotional verse (and in particular Indian bhakti poetry) itself ·must be examined carefully, its historical and literary antecedents firmly established before an adequate appraisal of t he religious and philosophical values it intrinsically carries (and affirms) can be fully investigated. The poetry of the Medieval North Indian poet Kabir (c. 1398-1448) is subjected to close literary scrutiny and it is found that not only does his verse encapsulate the tradition of North Indian bhakti (specifically nirguoa bhakti) or devotionalism but also, through an extraordinary array of symbolism, intricate metaphors and a peculiarly 1 Kabirian 1 paradox, it advances a total 'world-view' which reflects the social and historical circumstances of his age. The more immediate philosophical contexts of Kabir's poems (specific treatises on bhakti, Tantrism, the resolution of the Renouncer and the Man-in-the-World) together with their more clear-cu t literary antecedents (such as the Bhagavad Gita, Jayadeva's 'Gitagovinda', and the verse of Namdev and Lalla Lalesvari) are analysed in greater detail. Works which marginally ante-date Kabir or those which demonstrate the argument of the thesis are also discussed. In the second volume of the thesis the first fully annotated translation of Kabir's songs are offered and the annotations and expanded notes reinforce, with reference to the poems individually, the overall argument of the thesis.
Superconductivity of strongly correlated electrons on the honeycomb lattice

description: A microscopic theory of the electronic spectrum and of superconductivity within the t-J model on the honeycomb lattice is developed. We derive the equations for the normal and anomalous Green functions in terms of the Hubbard operators by applying the projection technique. Superconducting pairing of d + id'-type mediated by the antiferromagnetic exchange is found. The superconducting Tc as a function of hole doping exhibits a two-peak structure related to the van Hove singularities of the density of states for the two-band t-J model. At half-filling and for large enough values of the exchange coupling, gapless superconductivity may occur. For small doping the coexistence of antiferromagnetic order and superconductivity is suggested. It is shown that the s-wave pairing is prohibited, since it violates the constraint of no-double-occupancy.

description: Using linear flavor-wave theory (LFWT) and auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), we investigate the properties of the SU(4) Heisenberg model on the anisotropic square lattice in the fully antisymmetric six-dimensional irreducible representation, a model that describes interacting fermions with four flavors at half-filling. Thanks to the calculations on very large systems, we have been able to convincingly demonstrate that QMC results are consistent with a small but finite antiferromagnetic moment at the isotropic point, in qualitative agreement with LFWT obtained earlier [F. H. Kim {\it{et al.}}, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 96}, 205142 (2017)], and in quantitative agreement with results obtained previously on the Hubbard model [D. Wang {\it{et al.}}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 112}, 156403 (2014)] after extrapolation to infinite $U/t$. The presence of a long-range antiferromagnetic order has been further confirmed by showing that a phase transition takes place into a valence-bond solid (VBS) phase not too far from the isotropic point when reducing the coupling constant along one direction on the way to decoupled chains.

Conversion and continuity : response to missionization in the Papua New Guinea Highlands
Creators: name: Smith, Robert Millard
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981

description: The thesis deals with missionization in the Papua New Guinea Highlands and particularly with the Lutheran impact in the Eastern Highlands. Based partly on fieldwork research undertaken between 1976-78 at Kiseveloka in the Lufa District, Eastern Highlands Province, Papua New Guinea, the study sets the mission impact against the history of contact between Highlanders and Europeans in the 1930s. The Lutheran impact at Kiseveloka and elsewhere in the Highlands is examined, focussing on two issues: the nature of indigenous response to contact and evangelization, and the role of New Guinean mission workers in the rapid conversion of Highland populations during the 1950s and 1960s. Conversion and related change in village society is considered in terms of the interaction between older political and economic processes in Highland societies and the impositions of missions and government. In the light of this, the following issues are considered at length: the nature of Lutheran evangelistic policy and practice; changes in village leadership; the nature of congregational leadership in the current setting of post-conversion decline in mission support; and finally, the factors underlying this decline and village rejection of Christianity.

description: We consider new cosmological solutions with a collapsing, an intermediate and an expanding phase. The boundary between the expanding (collapsing) phase and the intermediate phase is seen by comoving observers as a cosmological past (future) horizon. The solutions are naturally embedded in string and M-theory. In the particular case of a two-dimensional cosmology, space-time is flat with an identification under boost and translation transformations. We consider the corresponding string theory orbifold and calculate the modular invariant one-loop partition function. In this case there is a strong parallel with the BTZ black hole. The higher dimensional cosmologies have a time-like curvature singularity in the intermediate region. In some cases the string coupling can be made small throughout all of space-time but string corrections become important at the singularity. This happens where string winding modes become light which could resolve the singularity. The new proposed space-time casual structure could have implications for cosmology, independently of string theory.

description: Prostate cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer and the third leading cause of cancer death in North America. As an integrated part of computer-aided detection (CAD) tools, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) has been intensively studied for accurate detection of prostate cancer. With deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) significant success in computer vision tasks such as object detection and segmentation, different CNNs architectures are increasingly investigated in medical imaging research community as promising solutions for designing more accurate CAD tools for cancer detection. In this work, we developed and implemented an automated CNNs-based pipeline for detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa) for a given axial DWI image and for each patient. DWI images of 427 patients were used as the dataset, which contained 175 patients with PCa and 252 healthy patients. To measure the performance of the proposed pipeline, a test set of 108 (out of 427) patients were set aside and not used in the training phase. The proposed pipeline achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.87 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.84-0.90) and 0.84 (95% CI: 0.76-0.91) at slice level and patient level, respectively.

description: One of the first Acts enacted by the Parliament of the new Commonwealth of Australia prohibited the recruitment of Pacific Islanders to work in Queensland from 1904. By 1908 the majority of these Islanders had been deported from Australia. The small number who remained, legally or illegally, were one of several non-European groups who served as reminders of ‘white’ multi-racial past. This thesis draws on not only conventional historical sources but also oral evidence and local records to examine the survival, in demographic, economic, social and cultural respects, of a Pacific Islander population in north Queensland in the first four decades of the twentieth century. Like other non-indigenous non-European groups, those islanders were subjected to a campaign, spearheaded by the labour movement, to exclude them from all favoured occupations and civic privileges. Despite and, indeed, as a result of such obstacles, they developed a sense of identity and community which marked them as a distinctive ethnic group. By 1940 the demographic and cultural survival of this Pacific Islander population was assured.

description: Real-time synthesis of legged locomotion manoeuvres in challenging environments, such as industrial staircases with distinct contact surfaces, remains an unresolved problem. These environments, known as multi-contact environments, require the simultaneous determination of footstep locations several steps ahead while generating whole-body motions close to the robot's operational limits. The practical constraint of state estimation and perception errors necessitates rapid re-planning of motions. With traditional model-based methods, this constraint prevents using a single large optimisation to solve the entire locomotion problem, leading to problem decomposition into smaller, more manageable sub-problems to meet computing time requirements. However, such decomposition introduces issues such as loose coupling between sub-problems due to varying models, constraints, and horizons, highlighting the need for an efficient architecture. Decomposition, particularly at the contact level to manage complexity, exacerbates the challenge of addressing combinatorial problems in multi-contact environments. We propose a fully decomposed control architecture to address the locomotion problem, leveraging mixed-integer optimisation with conservative assumptions as a planner to select only the contact surfaces while continuously updating footstep positions and leg trajectories within these surfaces. The approach was initially validated on the quadruped robot Solo and later extended to include real-time perception with the larger industrial robot ANYmal-B. Additionally, we explore integrating learning-based methods along with trajectory optimisation frameworks to leverage the strengths of both approaches and enhance the planner's performance.

description: Neutron scattering has been used to investigate the magnetic correlations in the the spin ice material dysprosium titanate, Dy2Ti2O7. An isotopically enriched sample was used to minimise neutron absorption. In zero field no magnetic order was observed down to 50 mK but the magnetic diffuse scattering was in qualitative agreement with that expected for the disordered low temperature state of dipolar spin ice. Application of a field of ~ 0.8 T in the [100] direction led to long range order. With the field applied in the [1-10] direction a coexistence of long range ferromagnetic and short range antiferromagnetic order was observed. This is attributed to the pinning of only half the spins by the field. The hysteresis loops in both field orientations displayed unusual steps and plateaus.

A comparative survey of reduplication in Australian languages
Creators: name: Dineen, Anne Helen
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1990
Subjects: subject: Australian languages Reduplication

description: This thesis is a cross-linguistic study of reduplicative constructions found in a sample of 120 Australian languages. The study is based on an examination of reduplications in various languages, and a comparison of these particular constructions with aspects of the structure of the language in question. In this way, the role of reduplication in grammar may be clarified. This is especially relevant to Australian languages since reduplication is largely used to express 'grammatical' rather than 'lexical' meaning. Chapter one provides an introduction to the aims and methods of the thesis. Chapter two discusses the phonological structure of reduplication in Australian languages by examining reduplication together with such phonological parameters as phonological word boundaries and stress patterns. Chapter three characterises nominal reduplications and sets out to show that reduplication of 'nouns' and 'adjectives' can be distinguished on a semantic or conceptual basis, although formal grammatical differences between the two classes may rarely be evident in Australian languages. Chapter four examines the variety of meanings which verbal reduplication may have, and shows a correlation between the types of meanings found and the role of reduplication in marking differences in verbal semantics in any one language. Finally, the thesis ends with a summary of the findings in chapters two, three and four, some conclusions, and suggestions for further areas of study relevant to the current topic.

(fig. 76)
Pachyula Ogilby, 1898: 33. Type species: Hemipimelodus crassilabris Ramsay & Ogilby, 1886. Type by original designation and also monotypy. Gender: feminine.
Tetranesodon Weber, 1913: 545. Type species: Tetranesodon conorhynchus Weber, 1913. Type by monotypy. Gender: masculine.
Diagnosis. The combination of two shared characters distinguishes Pachyula from all other genera of the Ariidae: (1) accessory tooth plates absent (shared with Cephalocassis borneensis, Ketengus, Nedystoma, Potamarius izabalensis and Potamosilurus velutinus); (2) posterior face of first epibranchial with a well developed process [shared with Plicofollis (with exception of P. platystomus)].
Supplementary morphological characters. Cephalic shield granulated visible under the skin; a moderately developed fenestra limited by lateral ethmoid and frontal visible under the skin; medial groove of neurocranium limited by frontal bones and/or on supraoccipital absent; posterior cranial fontanel moderately developed, long and narrow; fenestra limited by supraoccipital, pterotic and sphenotic absent; fossa limited by pterotic, supracleithrum and extrascapular relatively large; epioccipital invading dorsal portion of cephalic shield; occipital process triangular, very long and narrow, progressively narrower toward its posterior part; anterior and median nuchal plates fused and indistinct, forming a structure of semi-lunar aspect; tooth plates associated with vomer absent; accessory tooth plates absent; maxillary barbel fleshy and cylindrical; two pairs of mental barbels; base of adipose fin very long, as long as anal-fin base; lateral line not bifurcated at caudal region, reaching base of caudal-fin upper lobe; cleithrum wide with second dorsal process on its upper portion; posterior cleithral process very long and distinct from second dorsal process of cleithrum.
Remarks. Tetranesodon conorhynchus Weber, 1913 is the type-species of Tetranesodon and was not examined but included by possessing the diagnostic characters of the genus available in the literature. Thus, the inclusion of Tetranesodon as synonymous of Pachyula is tentative.
Distribution and habitat. Southern New Guinea, freshwaters.
