description: In zebrafish, the ventilatory response to hypoxia first develops at 3 days post-fertilization (d.p.f.) before O2-chemoreceptive neuroepithelial cells (NECs) of the gill appear at 7 d.p.f. This indicates the presence of extrabranchial chemoreceptors in embryos and a developmental transition to primarily gill O2 sensing. This thesis examined the skin NECs, which reach peak density in embryos but decline as gill NECs appear. Exposure of embryos and larvae to chronic hypoxia prevented the loss of skin NECs, shifted peak basal ventilation to a later developmental stage, and induced a hypoventilatory response to acute hypoxia. Chronic exposure to hyperoxia rapidly diminished skin NECs, shifted peak ventilation to earlier stages and eliminated the response to acute hypoxia. Administration of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine degraded nerve terminals that contact skin NECs and reduced both basal ventilation frequency and the hypoxic ventilatory response. Thus, skin NECs are candidates for extrabranchial O2 chemoreceptors in developing zebrafish.
Migrating from nonfiction to fiction: writing between porous borders
Creators: name: Banks, Glenda
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: While traditionally non-fiction has required the writer to stand outside the work to deliver an objective assessment of evidence-based information, fiction has placed the writer inside the work to explore the creative possibilities. Given the rise in popularity of the historical novel it could be argued that creative writers may now legitimately position themselves between the porous borders of the two dominant literary genres, borrowing from both in the subgenre of historiographic metafiction. This thesis is submitted for a PhD by artefact and exegesis. The artefact explores the under-documented 'herstory' of Victoria’s goldfields based on extensive research creating new knowledge about this significant gap. The exegesis looks at how practice-led research provided a viable pathway to creating a literary construct borrowing from both nonfiction and fiction.
Solid-State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of Exotic Quadrupolar Nuclei as a Direct Probe of Molecular Structure in Organic Ionic Solids

description: In the past decade, the field of NMR spectroscopy has seen the emergence of ever more powerful superconducting magnets, which has opened the door for the observation of many traditionally challenging or non-receptive nuclei. In this dissertation, a variety of ionic solids with organic coordination environments are investigated using quadrupolar solid-state NMR experiments with an ultrahigh-field magnet (21.1 T). Two general research directions are presented including a 79/81Br solid-state NMR study of a series of 6 triphenylphosphonium bromides for which single-crystal X-ray structures are reported herein. A second research direction is also presented wherein alkaline-earth metal (25Mg, 43Ca, and 87Sr) solid-state NMR is used to characterize a systematic series of 16 aryl and alkyl carboxylates. In both studies, the quadrupolar nuclei studied are deemed “exotic” due to their unreceptive nature to NMR spectroscopic analysis including low natural abundances, large quadrupole moments, or low resonance frequencies. A variety of coordination modes to alkaline-earth metals, including N-atom coordination, are characterized herein for the first time using alkaline-earth metal solid-state NMR. In all cases, the electric field gradient (EFG) and chemical shift (CS) tensors are characterized and correlated to structural features such as interatomic distances measured from the crystal structure of the compound under study. In all of the projects undertaken herein, the gauge-including projector-augmented-wave density functional theory (GIPAW DFT) method is used, which allows for the prediction and rationalization of the experimental EFG and CS tensor parameters based on the input crystal structure. In the case of 43Ca solid-state NMR experiments reported in this dissertation, a linear correlation between the calculated and experimental 43Ca quadrupolar coupling constants, CQ, is used as a calibration curve for GIPAW DFT calculations performed on the 18 structural models currently available for the vaterite polymorph of CaCO3. Vaterite cannot be fully characterized by X-ray diffraction alone; therefore an NMR crystallography protocol is used in order to identify the model that best accounts for 43Ca solid-state NMR experiments performed on vaterite. It is expected that the conclusions from this dissertation can be used for future studies involving structural refinement and elucidation of solid materials containing challenging quadrupolar nuclei.

description: The combustible fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW) is called refuse-derived fuel (RDF). RDF is a blend of heterogeneous materials and thus its handling is challenging. Pelletization is an efficient treatment to minimize the heterogeneity. In this research, typical RDF compositions were prepared by mixing several mass fractions of paper, plastic, household organic and wood. The collected compositions were ground, wetted to 20% moisture content (wet basis) and pelletized. Increasing the plastic content from 20% to 40% reduced the pelletization energy but increased the pellet’s calorific value. Pellets with higher plastic content generated more dust when exposed to shaking. Making durable pellets with 40% plastic content needed an increase in die temperature from 80 °C to 100 °C. Increasing the paper content from 30% to 50% increased the durability but consumed higher energy to form pellets. Paper particles increased the friction between pellet’s surface and die wall as was evident from expulsion energy. Force versus displacement curve for material compression revealed that the RDF compositions have rigid material characteristics.

Pluralisme juridique et dynamiques foncières émergentes à Sabah, Malaysia : paysanneries locales, huile de palme et développement

description: La transition agraire à Sabah oppose deux systèmes différents de mettre en valeur le territoire. Le premier se caractérise par l’expansion des plantations de monocultures commerciales alors que le deuxième se caractérise par des petites exploitations familiales qui se basent sur la subsistance et sur la diversification des cultures. Face à ce contraste, le modèle de développement rural proposé par le gouvernement cherche à concilier les intérêts macroéconomiques des grandes plantations avec les intérêts microéconomiques des petites exploitations alors que les premiers ont largement pris l’avantage sur les deuxièmes. En même temps, il existe à Sabah un système juridique foncier caractérisé par le pluralisme juridique. D’un côté nous avons le droit étatique centralisé qui se base sur la codification de la loi et sur la promotion de la propriété privée individuelle alors que de l’autre nous avons un droit coutumier qui se base sur la tradition orale et sur la gestion foncière communautaire. Chaque régime foncier présente une manière distincte de gérer l’accès, l’utilisation et la propriété de la terre et de ses ressources. Le droit étatique soutient l’expansion des grandes plantations alors que le droit coutumier régule la gestion des petites exploitations familiales. Les tensions qui existent entre ces systèmes juridiques différents de mise en valeur du territoire sont à l’origine de ce que nous appelons les dynamiques foncières émergentes. Cette thèse a pour but de mettre en évidence que la manière dont ces dynamiques interagissent, divergent et convergent a des répercussions en termes de développement rural dans la mesure où elles impliquent des tensions sociales et légales ainsi que des stratégies agricoles spécifiques ayant des conséquences économiques particulières. Plus spécifiquement, le but ultime est de comprendre comment le droit foncier coutumier se voit affecté par la transition agraire, comment il interagit par le biais des dynamiques foncières émergentes, et quels sont ses espaces et ses possibilités d’adaptation face à l’expansion d’un modèle de développement rural qui se base sur la modernisation et la marchandisation de l’agriculture.

description: The maritime industry generates vast amounts of daily data and many times publicly available are incomplete; effectively managing and deriving insights from this data remains a significant challenge. The aim of this thesis is to address this challenge by developing a comprehensive data management system designed to aggregate, manage, and visualize ship trajectories and related maritime statistics from various data sources by utilising state-of-the-art tools and techniques to unify incomplete data and create a single source of reference. To achieve this, the developed system employs advanced web scraping techniques for data collection as well as machine learning techniques to enrich the acquired data with missing elements (e.g., vessel’s position). The retrieved data are stored in a NoSQL data store, building upon its scalability and flexibility in handling/querying large datasets. After the data are collected, cleaned and homogenised, the developed system performs various analytics and visualization tasks, providing valuable insights into maritime shipping routes and other relevant statistics. In summary, this thesis presents a framework for managing large maritime data that allows users to simplify data collection, analysis, and visualization, and enables users without an IT background to leverage the collected data into insights.

description: This study consisted of a qualitative analysis of articles from two Canadian newspapers related to North America’s only safe injection facility for drug users, Vancouver’s Insite, and examined the texts for latent themes derived from a review of harm reduction and governmentality literature. The investigation asked “In what ways are Insite and its clients represented in the media and what implications do those portrayals have in terms of Insite’s operation as a harm reduction practice as well as a governmental strategy designed to direct the conduct of drug users who visit the site?” The analysis revealed conflicting representations, some which have positive potential in terms of Insite’s adherence to the fundamental principles of harm reduction and others that undermined those principles and suggested that the site may have traditional governmental functions, perhaps indicating less distance between the harm reduction and governmentality philosophies in the discourse surrounding the SIS than expected.

description: La présente thèse propose de situer et d’analyser les potentialités totalitaires participant de la réalité contemporaine. Pour ce, notre démarche se déploie en deux temps. Dans un premier temps, nous retraçons l’évolution philosophique du vivre-ensemble pour ainsi établir les principes et les origines d’un monde non-totalitaire. Dans un deuxième temps, nous nous penchons sur les conditions assurant à la fois la destruction du vivre-ensemble et l’essor des potentialités totalitaires. En mettant les deux composantes de notre démarche en rapport l’une avec l’autre, nous arrivons à une meilleure compréhension du processus par lequel le totalitarisme passe de son principe virtuel à sa réalisation effective en régime politique. La première partie de ce travail s’appuie sur les écrits de Hannah Arendt, de Herbert Marcuse et d’Aristote et s’intéresse surtout à l’œuvre et la responsabilité, à la misère privée et au bonheur public. La deuxième partie élabore la notion de la chrématistique dans la pensée d’Aristote et développe son mode de vie correspondant appelé hyper-responsabilité en invoquant Malcolm Gladwell, Georg Lukàcs, Thomas Hobbes, Léo Strauss et Hannah Arendt.

description: Статья посвящена исследованию феномена «Византия после Византии» на материале истории образования в России в конце XVII — начале XVIII в. Дан краткий обзор формирования отрицательного мифа о Византии, сопровождавшегося таким явлением, как византизм. Отмечена высокая оценка культурного наследия Византии в историографии постсоветского времени (Г.Г.Литаврин, В.В.Бычков, А.М.Лидов, К.В.Хвостова, Б.Л.Фонкич). Указана причина существования длительного дошкольного периода в истории Руси в результате отказа от любых технических манипуляций со словом, игнорирующих его сакральную сущность, отношения к церковнославянскому языку как к «иконе православия», преобладания на Руси аллегорико-символического толкования реальности, отказа от формально-логических путей познания. Главное внимание в этой связи уделено анализу деятельности в Новгороде ученых греческих иеромонахов братьев Иоанникия и Софрония Лихудов, продолжателей византийских традиций в области богословия, образования и культуры, создателей системы среднего и высшего образования в России.

description: This study examined global studies programs which emerged as a seemingly new field of knowledge in Canadian universities, beginning in 1998. These programs arose within the context of a number of transformational processes in higher education, namely internationalization, the introduction of global citizenship, an accent on civic engagement, and interdisciplinarity. By analysing institutional motivations and the personal convictions of the initiators of the new programs, the study identified a problematic lack of cohesion within the growing field of global studies in Canada. The principal method of analysis adopted in this study was the first-hand examination of a number of specific cases at different universities or institutions of higher learning, in the form of extensive interviews with leading individuals in the relevant programs. Additionally, university policy documents, reports of Canadian organizations (e.g. AUCC), and program websites were consulted in order to examine trends in global studies programs in Canada. An in-depth review of existing literature on the conceptualization of global studies as well as an analysis of diverse data collected made it possible to identify a number of problems, foremost of which was a disconnect between the theoretical aspirations for the emerging field and the understanding of global studies due to a lack of consensus in Canada on a definition of global studies. It was revealed that a common understanding of global studies in Canada is lacking. Furthermore, the analysis brought to light the diverse ideas behind the conceptualization of global studies programs, and the ways in which the personal ideas of the programs’ founders interacted with a variety of motives for designing these kinds of programs at different universities. An examination of the composition of the programs revealed their indeterminate character, as well as a remarkable overlap with the field of international development. Finally, the study offers recommendations for the leaders in global studies in Canada and provides suggestions for future research.

description: Background: In Rwanda, maternal community health workers (M-CHWs) are involved in the country’s overall health system. In maternal health, their role includes the provision of preventive and promotional health services at the community level. They provide services such as health education on maternal health wellbeing, advice and information on access and timely utilization of health facilities for prenatal, delivery and postpartum care. The contribution of M-CHWs in the health sector combined with other government initiatives led the country to achieving the fifth Millennium Development Goal (MDG) - target 5A- that aimed to improve maternal health through the reduction of maternal mortality ratio by 75% between 1990 and 2015). The objective of this study was to explore M-CHWs’ perceptions and experiences on access and provision of maternal health services. Methods: We used a case study methodology, a qualitative research approach to explore M-CHWs’ experiences and perceptions on access and provision of maternal health services at the community level in Rwanda. For the period of June–August 2014, in-depth interviews were conducted with sixteen M-CHWs who had been providing maternal health services in the Eastern Province of Rwanda. Participants shared their experiences and perceptions on access and provision of maternal health service in their communities. Results: The results of this research highlight the role of M-CHWs in promoting the use of health facilities for prenatal care and delivery and the ways they use to reach out to women. Several challenges prohibit M-CHWs to deliver adequate maternal health services and these are related to the poor resources settings in which they operate. Conclusion: The results of this study highlight the experiences and perceptions of M-CHWs on the provision and access to maternal health services in their communities. The fact that M-CHWs are volunteers operating in limited resources settings with no formal training in maternal health and with considerable workloads translates into challenges regarding the quality and quantity of services they provide in their communities. Such challenges create an impact on M-CHWs service provision, satisfaction and retention. The voices of M-CHWs and the communities they serve are needed to explore areas that are specific to each community context that would contribute to making the M-CHW program sustainable to achieve equitable access to maternal health services.

The disorder is classified as a sexual dysfunction; however, there is a paucity of literature on the sexual response, sexual function, and sexual behaviour of women with vaginismus. This thesis research was designed to investigate the differential aspects of sexual health in women with lifelong vaginismus, compared to women with lifelong dyspareunia (pain with intercourse) and women with pain-free intercourse. In the first study, 45 women viewed erotic films, of which one set depicted penetration and the other did not. Physiological sexual arousal was assessed via thermography. Subjective responses to films were assessed with questionnaires. Despite significantly greater negative emotions and lower mental sexual arousal in response to erotic stimuli, women with vaginismus showed genital arousal comparable to the comparison groups. In the second study, 174 women completed an online survey. Women with vaginismus reported more sexual difficulties than the no-pain group and a restricted range of lifetime sexual behaviours and lower frequency of intercourse attempts/experiences than the comparison groups. Women with vaginismus and dyspareunia reported more anxiety during sexual activity and a restricted sexual behaviour repertoire in the previous year and month compared to the no-pain group. Women with vaginismus endorsed more negative cognitions related to penetration, specifically concerns about losing control of their body and the situation. The findings suggest that sexual function difficulties and restricted behavioural repertoire may be associated with negative emotions and maladaptive cognitions. Women with vaginismus may avoid encounters that could lead to intercourse. Alternatively, the negative response to sexual stimuli may be indicative of a more global negative response to sexuality beyond intercourse. The negative penetration-related cognitions, negative responses to sexual stimuli, anxiety during sexual activity, and reduced range and frequency of sexual behaviours of women with vaginismus provide support for the Fear-Avoidance Model of Vaginismus. The impairment in sexual functioning supports the need to move beyond the singular treatment focus of making intercourse possible to an approach that addresses overall sexual rehabilitation.

description: With increased worries of our Nations’ reliance on fossil fuels and their deleterious effects on the environment, researchers are concentrating on developing sustainable alternative sources for energy and chemicals. One potential starting resource that is worldwide distributed and renewable is biomass. Cellulose, the most plentiful source of biomass on earth, can be hydrolyzed into biofuel precursors such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). However, due to the poor solubility of cellulose and its robust crystalline structure, current methods available to degrade cellulose into these biofuel precursors are costly, result in low yields along with a large amount of waste. Generally, fructose is the preferred feedstock for the synthesis of HMF with high efficiency and selectivity. However, the large-scale production of HMF from fructose is limited due to the scarcity and the high cost of fructose. Therefore, it is desirable to use a cheaper renewable starting material for the synthesis of HMF such as sucrose. This study is conducted to develop an efficient one-pot process to synthesize HMF from biomass, particularly sucrose, using various sulfonated heterogeneous catalysts such as ordered mesoporous silica, bridged periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMO) and carbon materials. The HMF yields in the presence of such acidic nanoporous materials were comparable to those using much less environmentally-friendly metal-based catalysts.

description: Plusiers resultats de recherche ont indique que le personnel de soutien constituait un groupe vulnerable aux effets negatifs du stress au travail. Pour notre etude, nous avons obtenu la collaboration de cent cinquante-et-une femmes et quatorze hommes travaillant comme personnel de soutien (secretaires, commis, etc.). Le nombre total de sujets correspondait a un taux de reponse de 23%. Les questionnaires qui ont ete envoyes aux sujets nous ont permis de recueillir des renseignements sur les donnees demographiques, sur leurs ressources personnelles, sur leur degre de consistance, de differenciation, d'identite vocationnelle et de congruence, sur le stress qu'ils vivaient au travail, sur les conflits entre les roles du travail et ceux de la maison, sur leurs facons de transiger avec le stress au travail, sur leur degre de detresse psychologique et de satisfaction au travail. Les mesures de stress au travail, de detresse psychologique et de satisfaction au travail ont ete repetees six mois plus tard afin de pouvoir mieux evaluer les liens de causalite. Sur les cent soixante-cinq sujets qui avaient accepte de participer a la recherche, cent vingt-deux femmes et dix hommes, ont repondu a cette deuxieme serie de questionnaires. Toutefois, le desir d'avoir plus de controle sur les evenements etait un facteur de stress au travail. Les strategies d'engagement et de gestion des symptomes ont rarement permis de predire la sante mentale des sujets. On a aussi observe que les personnes portees a se desengager lorsqu'elles vivaient du stress, presentaient un plus haut degre de detresse psychologique. Il semble que les hommes etaient davantage portes a utiliser des strategies de desengagement. On a vu aussi que les personnes qui disaient avoir un controle sur les evenements etaient en meilleure sante mentale. Il semble aussi que la relation positive entre l'engagement et la satisfaction au travail ait ete plus forte chez les personnes consistantes. La pertinence de la theorie de Holland dans le domaine du stress au travail est discutee a la lumiere de nos resultats. Certaines conclusions seraient importantes a considerer lors de recherches ulterieures ainsi que pour la mise en place de programmes de gestion du stress chez le personnel de soutien.

description: In this study, two saponins-rich plant extracts, viz. Saponaria officinalis and Quillaja saponaria, were used as surfactants in an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion based on hempseed oil (HSO). This study focused on a low oil phase content of 2% v/v HSO to investigate stable emulsion systems under minimum oil phase conditions. Emulsion stability was characterized by the emulsification index (EI), centrifugation tests, droplet size distribution as well as microscopic imaging. The smallest droplets recorded by dynamic light scattering (droplets size v. number), one day after the preparation of the emulsion, were around 50–120 nm depending the on use of Saponaria and Quillaja as a surfactant and corresponding to critical micelle concentration (CMC) in the range 0–2 g/L. The surface and interfacial tension of the emulsion components were studied as well. The effect of emulsions on environmental bacteria strains was also investigated. It was observed that emulsions with Saponaria officinalis extract exhibited slight toxic activity (the cell metabolic activity reduced to 80%), in contrast to Quillaja emulsion, which induced Pseudomonas fluorescens ATCC 17400 growth. The highest-stability samples were those with doubled CMC concentration. The presented results demonstrate a possible use of oil emulsions based on plant extract rich in saponins for the food industry, biomedical and cosmetics applications, and nanoemulsion preparations.

description: Die Förderung mathematischen Problemlösens wird im heutigen Mathematikunterricht explizit gefordert. In der Mathematikdidaktik scheint jedoch in Bezug auf die Frage nach dem "Wie" eine Diskrepanz zu bestehen. Um mehr Klarheit und Sicherheit zu diesem Thema zu erreichen, stellt die vorliegende Arbeit ein systematisches Review dar. Dabei wird das Ziel verfolgt, empirische Forschungsarbeiten zur mathematischen Problemlösekompetenz in der Schule in Bezug auf ihre zugrunde gelegte theoretische Position, ihre gewonnenen Studienergebnisse und getroffene praktische Implikationen zur Förderung mathematischen Problemlösens zu untersuchen.
