description: Whereas “civilization” has often been dismissed in nineteenth-century studies as a rallying cry for empire, this dissertation offers a critical re-evaluation of how theVictorians understood this concept and its implications for literature’s educational possibilities. Integrating Norbert Elias’s theory of the civilizing process into a critical framework that draws on literary linguistics and rhetorical studies, my first chapter studies nineteenth-century writings from a range of disciplines – including economics, sociology, and linguistics – to show that “civilization” represented a key site for Victorian writers to reflect holistically on wider processes of social change and their linguistic dimensions. The second chapter analyzes the poetics of John Stuart Mill andMatthew Arnold in the context of this discourse. Arguing that the discourse of civilization provides a crucial framework for understanding how these thinkers conceived literary language as “improving,” I reveal the impact of this discourse on the period’s most influential theories about literature’s educational value. While the first part of the dissertation considers the literary implications of “civilization” on the level of theory, thesecond part explores how Victorian poets and novelists addressed these implications in practice by considering classic texts such as Jane Eyre and David Copperfield alongside less canonical female Bildungsromane and children’s adventure tales. Chapter Three begins by demonstrating how a range of Victorian genres dramatize and reflect on thecivilizing process, then focuses specifically on narratives of writers’ Bildung (formation). I argue that these Bildungsromane show particularly clearly how Victorian writers’ creative engagement with the discourse of civilization enables them to construct a model of literary language that facilitates social integration, while fostering a value for individuality and inventiveness essential to active participation in social processes. Turning to narratives of feminine Bildung like Margaret Oliphant’s Miss Marjoribanks and Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, the concluding chapter illustrates how writers imagined how such private pastimes as reading might sustain wider civilizing trends. By exploiting thelinks between gender and genre, these texts are able, I suggest, to conceive the possibility of altering Victorian society’s deeply ingrained sexism through the strategic appropriation – rather than outright rejection – of its gendered norms.

DESCRIPTION
Small, moderately slender, high conical shell; apical angle 30°. Protoconch of type A, partially immersed.Teleoconch consisting of seven, flat whorls with narrowly incised suture, resulting in faintly gradate spire.Transition into convex base weakly angulated. Aperture tear-shaped with 3 columellar folds and a narrow canal.
REMARKS
A complete list of synonymy is provided by Landau et al. (2013). Several varieties have been created due to the morphological variability of the species; the length, the angulation and width of the last whorl, and the strength of the three columellar folds. In the present material, only one protoconch was preserved, of type A and partially immersed, therefore no variability can be observed. There is a variation with size of the columellar teeth of the Greek specimens, the smallest specimen bears more prominent folds in contrary to the largest specimen for which they are moderately developed.
The species differs from Pyramidella grateloupi (d’Orbigny, 1852) from the type region (SW France, Aquitaine) in being more slender, having a less incised suture and having a less cyrtoconoid outline.

Introducing uncertainty into evacuation modeling via dynamic traffic assignment with probabilistic demand and capacity constraints

description: Emergency evacuations are low-probability-high-consequence events that have attracted the attention of researchers since 1960s. An evacuation process can be triggered by various natural (hurricane, flood, tsunami etc.) and man-made (industrial accidents, terrorist attack etc.) events. Regardless of the threat, the nature of the evacuation process involves a very high utilization of the transportation network and searching for plans/strategies to move large number of people to a safe place in the shortest possible time. Researchers from different disciplines approach to the evacuation problem from different perspectives. Two major components of any evacuation event are estimation of the evacuation demand and traffic analysis to make planning inferences about the evacuation performance measures such as clearance time. Although related studies and real-life practices show a significant uncertainty regarding the evacuation demand due to the unpredictability of human behavior and changing roadway as a result of disaster impacts, the state-of-the-practice does not consider this type of randomness. This dissertation aims to address this important gap by proposing a dynamic traffic assignment formulation with probabilistic constraints that takes into account uncertainties in demand and roadway capacities. The proposed model uses a cell transmission model based system optimal dynamic traffic assignment formulation. The demand and roadway capacities are assumed to follow a discrete random distribution and the p-level efficient points approach [115] is employed to solve the proposed model. Two numerical examples regarding the use of the model are provided. The numerical examples also discuss the implications using individual chance constraints vs. joint chance constraints which provide different interpretations for the reliability of the results. Overall, the proposed formulation generates evacuation time performance measures that can be interpreted within reliability measures rather than single deterministic point estimates that would not be necessarily observed during a real life test, mainly due to high level of uncertainty created by human behavior and capacity impacts of the disaster.

description: Transition oxide materials have a long and high-flying history due to their attractive properties. They are well-known today for magnets, high temperature superconductors as well as promising electronic materials. For example, BaTiO3 and PbZrTiO3 are famous piezoelectric materials that are used in Micro-electric-mechanical system devices and VO2, a metal insulator transition material with a threshold temperature of 70 degrees is used to prevent over-heating of devices such as batteries. Herein, I address the newly investigated noble transport properties in (1) perovskite (La,Pr,Ca)MnO3 as a cryogenic non-volatile random access memory by using the phase change between charge-ordered insulating state and ferromagnetic metallic state, (2) ferroelectric BiFeO3: switchable photovoltaic effect by switching the poling direction of the sample. I also explored the newly investigated multiferroic property in transition metal compound Ca3Co2-xMnxO6 as well as the giant magnetic coercivity change induced by co-operative freezing in Ca3Co2O6.
Modeling and optimization of container inspection systems

description: Container inspection is vital to maintaining secure ports-of-entry and preventing undesired cargo from entering the United States. The inspection process can be generalized as the collection and analysis of information obtained from multiple sensors.  Formulating a mathematical model of container inspection allows for evaluation and improvement of the process.  The performance of the system under a specified policy is evaluated using one or more objectives such as misclassification errors (false accept and false reject), costs associated with these errors, inspection cost, inspection time, and others.  The main contributions of this research are the modeling, formulation, and optimization of inspection policies under different conditions. Furthermore, the dissertation introduces a new class of problems in scheduling theory in which the allocation of inspections is not defined and appears as a decision variable in the solution. In the initial model, the overall system decision is a Boolean function of the individual station decisions. Under these conditions we define an optimal sequence of stations with respect to the expected cost of inspection and solve simultaneously for the threshold level values and sequence of stations that produce a minimum total cost. This optimization is extended to include the time for inspection as an objective and a multi-objective optimization approach is developed.  Next we introduce an independent error term that accounts for measurement error contributed by the sensor and propose some strategies, including repeat inspection, to improve the system’s performance. We investigate an approach to approximating the efficient frontier for three objectives. We then consider distinct risk categories and due times for containers.  Approaches are developed to determine the optimal allocation and scheduling of inspection operations to minimize false acceptance and tardiness objectives.  The problem is presented as a variation of the open shop scheduling problem with no predefined operations.  A solution approach to this simultaneous allocation and scheduling problem is proposed and its performance is compared with an enumerative approach.  The results show that the proposed approach produces near-optimal solutions in a much shorter time than full enumeration and is capable of solving large problems for which the enumerative approach is intractable.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Sample F11: AMPG (IV) 2557 (one specimen).
DIMENSIONS. — Maximum height: 1.75 mm.
DISTRIBUTION. — Early Miocene. Proto-Mediterranean Sea: Greece (this paper).
DESCRIPTION
Type C partially immersed tilted protoconch. Teleoconch whorls shouldered, smooth and flat, sutures deeply incised, V-shaped. Sculpture on the base of the shell consists of fine spiral grooves and axial growth lines. Last whorl slightly angular; aperture rhomboid; umbilicus very restricted; columellar tooth moderately developed.
REMARKS
The present species is easily set apart from other Odostomiinae by having a conical shape, a relatively solid shell with flat whorls and very distinct sutures. The partially immersed protoconch forms an acute angle with the first teleoconch whorl of about 45°. The almost indistinguishable subsutural collar gives a shouldered aspect to the whorls and accentuates the sutures.
Morphologically, it is most similar, regarding the shape of the whorls, the protoconch and the aperture, to the recent species Odostomia didyma (Verrill & Bush, 1900) (= Eulimastoma didymum (Verrill & Bush, 1900)?). Nevertheless, the genus Eulimastoma Bartsch, 1916 is characterised by spiral microstructure which is not observed on the present specimen, possibly due to the preservation of the shell.
Furthermore, the shape and overall morphology of Odostomia (Pyramistomia) fehrae van Aartsen, Gittenberger & Goud, 1998 is similar. The latter species is classified in Pyramistomia Cossmann, 1921 at the subgenus level, on grounds of having similarities with Odostomia deubeli Boettger, 1901 (= Pyramistomia deubeli Boettger, 1901) (type species of Pyramistomia) (van Aartsen et al. 1998). In a revision of the genus Eulimastoma Bartsch, 1916, Pimenta & Absalão (2004) mention that O. (Pyramistomia) fehrae is related. In the present state of knowledge of the apomorphies of these genera, it is not possible to assign the present specimen with certainty, thus its placement in Odostomia s.l.

DESCRIPTION
Type B planispiral and partially immersed protoconch. Teleoconch of three flat whorls; sculpture consists of inconspicuous orthocline growth lines; sutures impressed. Last whorl angular; umbilicus small and narrow, aperture oval, outer lip missing.
REMARKS
The shell is short and conical; all specimens have a type B protoconch with an arch-shaped suture (Peñas & Rolán 2010). The apex of the protoconch forms a concavity to the suture between protoconch and first teleoconch whorl, which is a feature, observed in some specimens with type B partially immersed protoconchs in the genus Eulimastoma. Nevertheless, the present specimen lacks other characters that could place it in the latter genus (inflated suprasutural band, sculpture of the base of the shell).

DIMENSIONS. — Maximum height: 1.20 mm.
DISTRIBUTION. — Early Miocene. Proto-Mediterranean Sea: Greece (this paper).
DESCRIPTION
Small, solid shell with broad conical outline; spire angle c. 26°. Intorted type C protoconch of c. 300 µm diameter, resulting in very blunt apex. Axial sculpture consisting of inconspicuous, orthocline growth lines. Whorls only faintly convex, sutures impressed and linear. Last whorl inconspicuously angular at periphery; accounting for about 60% of total height. Columella weakly concave with central columellar tooth; outer lip smooth. Six elongate teeth appear behind aperture in last whorl. Umbilicus reduced to narrow chink.
REMARKS
The generic placement is based on the presence of elongate teeth behind the outer lip (Peñas & Rolán 1999; Robba 2013). All available specimens are very small and might represent subadult specimens. The type C protoconch distinguishes this species from the widespread Miocene to Recent European Megastomia conoidea (Brocchi, 1814). Among the Recent species of Megastomia, only M. lorioli (Hornung & Mermod, 1924) develops a type C protoconch (Bogi & Cuneo 1999). This Lessepsian migrant differs from the Aquitanian species from Greece in its strongly incised suture. The extant Odostomia lukisii Jeffreys, 1859 has a very similar shell morphology, with an immersed type C protoconch, but lack the teeth within the outer lip.

Type:— CHINA. Henan Province: Neixiang County, 1722 m, Baotianman National Nature Reserve, 26 Jul 2021, Peng M001 (FAFU).
The new species differs from M. malipoensis in height, inflorescence structure, number of leaves and flowers, colour of flower bracts, long-ovate sepals, longer petals and ovoid, apically narrow lip (Table 1).
Terrestrial, erect herbs, 9–25 cm. Leaves usually 2, one larger, base contracted into petiole, clasping, ovate to long ovoid, apex attenuate, 5.0–12.0 × 2.5–5.0 cm. Inflorescence arising from leaf axils, erect, 12–22 cm long, 3.0– 3.5 mm in diameter; racemes 10–15 cm long, 40–80 flowers; floral bracts lanceolate, 1.5–2.0 mm long, yellowish green; pedicel and ovary 3.0– 3.5 mm long, pedicels twisted in a right-handed spiral; fully open flowers 3 mm in diameter, yellowish green; sepals subequal, long-ovate, 1.5–1.8 × 0.7–1.0 mm; petals linear, 1.3–1.5 × 0.2–0.3 mm; lip uppermost (non-resupinate), ovoid, apically narrow, 1.3–1.5 × 0.9–1.2 mm; disk oblate, slightly concave in the middle, both margins hypertrophic and warty, with a short auricles on both sides of the base; column 0.6 mm long; pollinia 4, in 2 pairs, waxy.
Phenology:— Flowering July and August.
Distribution and ecology:— Known only from Neixiang County, Henan Province, growing in humus-rich soil.
Etymology:— Named after Henan Province.
Conservation:— Although we investigated areas in the southern and western hilly regions of Henan that would be suitable for this orchid, we did not find plants. The greatest threat to the survival of the new species in the area is human activity and being eaten by wild boars.
Notes:— Most Malaxis species have small greenish flowers (Jermakowicz et al. 2022), which also applies to M. henanensis and M. moliponesis (Table 1).

The tests performed with ZIRLO claddings coated to 7 µm Cr layer showed that for Tmax<1300 °C, only small oxidation of Cr layer with low hydrogen release (factor 15 in comparison to not coated claddings) occurred. For higher temperatures, formation of numerous local swellings at the outer cladding surface due to Zr-Cr eutectic at 1350 °C occurred and significant hydrogen release due to oxidation of Zr substrate was measured.
The tests performed with E110 claddings coated to 8 µm Cr layer showed significant decrease of hydrogen release under extended LOCA conditions (max 1250 °C) in comparison to not coated samples (factor 15). For peak cladding temperature of 1350 °C, numerous local swellings at the outer cladding surface formed and intensive hydrogen release (factor 18 in comparison to 1250 °C) was measured.
The tests performed with opt. ZIRLO claddings coated to three different layer thicknesses showed that an increase in the thickness of the Cr layer by 3 times (from 6 to 18 μm) reduced the hydrogen release by 30% under DBA conditions (transient to 1200 °C), however, only by 3% under BDBA conditions (1400 °C). Barrier layer CrN has only moderate influence on hydrogen release under DBA, but strong reduced hydrogen release under BDBA (reduction factor 4). A local temperature escalation and formation and relocation of (Zr,Cr)+Zr melt for Cr/CrN coating occurred perhaps due to the lack of intermediate oxidation of part of the zirconium substrate, which could not react with steam due to the barrier effect of CrN layer.
A study of pricing-based relaying cooperation in wireless ad hoc networks

description: Relaying cooperation in wireless ad hoc network has been studies for years. Through  relaying cooperation, nodes can communicate with other nodes that are not in their  communication range. However, because relaying packets costs extra resources of intermediate  nodes, certain nodes may refuse to cooperate for saving own resources,  especially when a network doesn’t belong to a fixed infrastructure, such as wireless ad  hoc network. Thus, to change the behavior of those selfish node, certain systems are  proposed to stimulate the relaying cooperation. These systems are popularly classified  as reputation-based system and pricing-based system. Three pricing-based strategies  based on different key variables are proposed in this thesis. To evaluate the effectiveness  of these strategies in terms of the equality of chances to participate in cooperation, a  new fairness index named centrality fairness is proposed. By studying the behavior  of nodes in static and dynamic topologies, edge node issues and importance of node  mobility are discussed. With sufficient results from experiments, these pricing-based  strategies are proved to be effective in static topology, and all of them can alleviate the  effect from edge node issues. Eventually, the strategy using utility ratio as the key variable  of the pricing adjustment is concluded to be the best strategy, which can provide  the best centrality fairness of a designated static network. Finally, to study the contributions  of other parameters, such as pricing refresh rate ([pi symbol]) and step size of pricing  adjustment ([delta symbol] ), several experiments are done with these parameters fine-tuned.

description: Megastomia sp. 2
(Fig. 8 D1-D3)
MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Sample F11: AMPG (IV) 2563-2569 (seven specimens).
DIMENSIONS. — Maximum height: 2.20 mm.
DISTRIBUTION. — Early Miocene. Proto-Mediterranean Sea: Greece (this paper).
DESCRIPTION
Moderately slender, solid shell; apical angle c. 27°. Partially immersed, type B protoconch. Teleoconch comprising four feebly convex, smooth whorls, with inconspicuous microscopical orthocline growth lines separated by impressed sutures. Last whorl attaining about 60% of total height; slightly angulated at periphery. Columella concave with narrow columellar fold; aperture ovate; outer lip with five observable spiral lines. No umbilicus.
REMARKS
Two protoconch whorls are visible on the shells (including the nucleus). Type B protoconch and columellar tooth place this shell in the Odostomia group, and the spiral striations of the inner lip in the Megastomia genus. It is also separated from ‘ Odostomia ’ sp. 2 of the present material, in having a more immersed protoconch and more rounded whorls.
The overall morphology is similar to M. conoidea with the main difference being that the protoconch of the Greek specimen is of type B a slightly more rounded last whorl. The size and protoconch type coincides with that of Odostomia sp. from the stratotype region of the Aquitanian (Aquitaine Basin, SW France) (Lozouet et al. 2001). Nevertheless, the Greek specimen has a more conical shape and spiral sculpture on the inner lip that differentiates it.

description: The data and code required to calculate climate analogs with the methods used in Earth's Future manuscript titled, "What will the European climate look like in the future? A climate analog analysis accounting for dependencies between variables". 

The given code and data can be used to reproduce the comparison of analog calculation methods using Sigma Dissimilarity as shown in the supplementary materials (Figure S2) based on seasonal climate variables obtained from the GFDL-ESM model SSP3.70 scenario over Europe.

The code can also calculate climate analogs for a user-defined location using any combination of the provided GCM and SSP scenarios. 

The data is obtained from climate-related forcings available on the ISIMIP3b repository (Stefan Lange, Matthias Büchner (2021): ISIMIP3b bias-adjusted atmospheric climate input data (v1.1). ISIMIP Repository. https://doi.org/10.48364/ISIMIP.842396.1).

Sixteen climate variables are derived from daily datasets. The total seasonal precipitation is calculated by summing the daily precipitation values, while the seasonal mean, minimum, and maximum temperatures are determined by averaging and identifying the lowest and highest daily temperature values within each season, respectively. 

ex: ISIMIP3b_gfdl.esm4_Seasonal_Climate_Variables_over_Europe.Rdata consists of the following data: 

1 - gfdl.esm4.ssp370 [6797, 120, 16]   # where 6797 grid points within extent(c(-10, 50, 30, 70)), 120 years (1981 - 2100), 16 Climate Variables 2 - landseamask_europe                      # land-sea mask for the study domain3 - loc_pix_land_mask_eu                    # location of each pixel/grid in the input data array (We masked the global data to include only grid points over land within Europe*)4 - sample_cities                                   # sample city information for the CA calculation5 - sea_area_shp & study_area_shp    # shapefiles for plots

where; gfdl.esm4.ssp126, gfdl.esm4.ssp370 and gfdl.esm4.ssp585 have the same structure 

*It is important to note that in this study, climate analogs for Europe were calculated using a global search, but only cropped data for Europe is provided here to simplify the process and reduce calculation time. However, the analog calculation methods given in the code can be applied to any dataset.

REMARK
Due to the few shell characters of the genus, species belonging to Brachystomia Monterosato, 1884 have been included in Ondina de Folin, 1870 and Auristomia Monterosato, 1884 used as genera or subgenera (Lozouet et al. 2001; HØisaeter 2014).

(Fig. 8 B1, B2)
MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Sample F11: AMPG (IV) 2570-2572 (three specimens).
DIMENSIONS. — Maximum height: 2.00 mm.
DISTRIBUTION. — Early Miocene. Proto-Mediterranean Sea: Greece (this paper).
DESCRIPTION
Moderately slender shell with apical angle of c. 25°. Intorted type C protoconch of c. 210 µm diameter.Teleoconch consisting of five weakly convex smooth whorls; suture non-canaliculate impressed. Last whorl attains 60% of total height with faint angulation; base moderately convex, slowly contracting. Narrow ovate aperture; columella with small fold not visible in direct apertural view. Umbilicus reduced to barrow chink.
REMARKS
The apex appears blunt due to the completely intorted protoconch which is a character separating the genera Brachystomia Monterosato, 1884 and Odostomia Fleming, 1813 (Robba 2013; Landau & LaFollette 2015). Furthermore, the shell is smooth and the protoconch very flat which are characters shared with the type species of the genus B. scalaris MacGuillivray, 1843 as described and illustrated by HØisaeter (2014). Based on the similarities The shape of the Greek shells share the basic characters of the genus Brachystomia Monterosato, 1884 Odostomia (Brachystomia) sp. from the Miocene of the North Sea Basin (Moths et al. 2010). It has an intorted protoconch, a smooth shell, and similar aperture with a narrow umbilical chink and a columellar tooth not clearly visible in direct apertural view. Nevertheless, the latter specimen has a less blunt apex and is slightly longer (maximum height: 2.40 mm) than the Greek specimen. The general aspect and morphology is also close to Odostomia fusulus Monterosato, 1878 (Landau et al. 2013) (= Auristomia fusulus (Monterosato, 1878)), including the structure of the protoconch, but it is narrower and has a smaller aperture. Odostomia elisabethae Boettger, 1907 from the Serravallian of the Karaman Basin (Turkey) is another morphologically close species with a less intorted protoconch, clearly defined umbilicus, much more prominent umbilical fold, and smaller aperture than the Greek specimen. Lastly, the overall morphology is close to Ondina cicatricosa Lozouet, Lesport & Renard, 2001, especially regarding the apex and the proportion of the last whorl, the main differences with the Greek specimen are the opisthocline growth lines, the inconspicuous spiral sculpture which is absent from Brachystomia sp., and the deep umbilicus.

Optical Probe Nacelle for Short Focal Length Diagnostics in High Temperature Supersonic Flows

subject: Aerospace engineering not elsewhere classified

description: This work seeks to study a novel, actively cooled aerodynamic probe nacelle with integrated optics to enable short focal length laser diagnostics in high-temperature supersonic flows, especially relevant for Hot Jet wind tunnels. The nacelle has been designed to: i.) survive the thermal loads generated at Mach 6 and total conditions of 1700 K, 44 bar, and ii.) minimize the flow disturbance generated by the front bow shock. By enabling measurements at shorter focal lengths, higher irradiance is achieved at the focal point for the same laser power.The thermal survivability of the nacelle is studied first via a 1D conjugate heat transfer model including effusion cooling effects. The coolant pressure predicted by the model is used as boundary condition in 3D Steady RANS numerical simulations, where spatially resolved cooling effectiveness contours are extracted. Flow distortion is also studied from the numerical simulations. Modelling accurately the effusion holes allows to study the coolant jets-bow shock interaction and its effect on the shape of the shock. The distance between the focusing lens and the bow shock is studied and compared to the focal length achieved if the optics were placed outside the facility. The shift in laser trajectory due to refractive index gradients across the flow is predicted using ray propagation models.The cooling jacket of the nacelle is tested experimentally in an Open Jet wind tunnel at low supersonic (Mach~1.1), long duration, heated conditions. “In-situ” calibrated infrared thermography is used to obtain temperature and cooling effectiveness contours in the front faces and Atomic Layer Thermopiles (ALTPs) are used to measure heat flux and adiabatic heat transfer coefficient, enabling validation of the numerical models. High-frequency accelerometer data and Camera-Based vibrations data are collected to identify vibration frequencies and peak to peak amplitudes in the nacelle, allowing to correlate them with the momentum of the Open Jet and study their impact on the location of the focal point.
