description: Hybrid energy storage systems (HESS), i.e., the combination of two different energy storage technologies, are widely discussed as a promising solution for energy storage problems. A common control scheme to allocate the power between these storages and the subject of this study is filter-based control, where a filter splits the input signal into a low-frequency and high-frequency part. It provides robust results and easy implementation, although more advanced strategies may perform better. Many publications use this controller for specific problems, but a structured analysis of this controller type that quantifies the advantages and disadvantages, traits, and setbacks is missing. This work fills this gap and structures, summarizes, and provides mathematical background and guidelines on filter-based control of hybrid energy storage systems. Numerical simulations are performed to quantify the impact of design variables, parameters, or the input signal by using a linear storage model with efficiency and self-discharge rate and a low-pass filter controller with constant energy feedback as a representative subtype of this control scheme. The present work proves the high cycle-reduction capabilities of filter-controlled HESS at the cost of overdimensioning compared to more advanced control strategies. It demonstrates that using a high-efficiency, high-power storage with a low self-discharge rate and high-energy storage leads to smaller overall dimensioning and losses than a single storage system. The study identifies the feedback factor of the controller as the most impacting design variable.

description: Gibbs sampling is a widely used Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for numerically approximating integrals of interest in Bayesian statistics and other mathematical sciences. Many implementations of MCMC methods do not extend easily to parallel computing environments, as their inherently sequential nature incurs a large synchronization cost. In the case study illustrated by this paper, we show how to do Gibbs sampling in a fully data-parallel manner on a graphics processing unit, for a large class of exchangeable models that admit latent variable representations. Our approach takes a systems perspective, with emphasis placed on efficient use of compute hardware. We demonstrate our method on a Horseshoe Probit regression model and find that our implementation scales effectively to thousands of predictors and millions of data points simultaneously.

Adapting to life following acquired brain injury (ABI) is a complex process of adjustment and community reintegration. While narrative storytelling is recognised as an approach to supporting coherence following trauma or disruption to the life narrative, there is limited direct research into narrative approaches in ABI. The aim of this doctoral inquiry was to explore the subjective experience of narrative storytelling following ABI. The study was conducted in the context of a storytelling advocacy program, in which personal stories are shared to advocate for the rights of young people with disabilities residing in nursing homes. Eight storytellers with moderate-severe ABI and six storytelling facilitators participated in in-depth interviews. Each of the storytellers was interviewed at least twice to maximise engagement of participants with cognitive and communication challenges. A total of 28 interviews were analysed using constructivist grounded theory methods. The findings yielded three published articles and one manuscript under review. Narrative storytelling was found to be a humanising experience. Central to this finding was the advocacy context of the storytelling, in which sharing stories of lived experience held meaningful occupational purpose for the storytellers, and their lived experiences were valued. While the storytellers experienced agency in relationship with the facilitators, storytelling also created space for the storytellers to feel heard, express emotions and reflect upon life experiences. A model of narrative storytelling, generated from the experiences of the participants, illustrates the transformative potential of story sharing, showing the dynamic and multidimensional relationships between the processes of narrative storytelling, identity construction and occupational engagement. This is the first study to investigate the use of narrative storytelling for adults with ABI in an advocacy context, and from the perspective of both storytellers and facilitators. The findings contribute new insights, with practice recommendations considered in the context of holistic ABI rehabilitation.

description: Background Breast feeding is unambiguously important for child growth and development. World health organization and united nation children's emergency international fund recommended that children get breast milk exclusively for 6 months and extends to 24 months with other additional feedings. However, these days there are many problems are seen in relation to initiation and continuation of breast feeding practice. Out of those problems, fathers support and father's attitude towards breast feeding is directly or indirectly affects initiation and continuation rate of breast feeding. Objective The aim of this study will be to investigate father's attitude towards breast feeding and its associated factors in selected governmental hospitals from April 17 to May 17, 2017 in Addis Ababa Ethiopia. Methods The study was used institutional based cross-sectional quantitative method with structured interview as a data collection tool. In order to select sampling units from the given 8 hospitals, lottery method was used and 4 hospitals were selected. A total of 422 fathers participated in this study and allocate to each selected hospitals proportion to size. To select study participant's convenience sampling was used. All interview questions analyzed by using SPSS version 20 for data entry and analysis. Results A total of 243(52%) of participants had negative attitude towards breast feeding poor breast feeding knowledge (35%), fathers not support in house hold chores(46.2%) and cultural role(56.9%) had association with negative attitude. Conclusion and recommendation 52% of the participants had negative attitude towards breast feeding. Good breast feeding knowledge, fathers support in house hold chores and cultural role were found to be associated with attitude about breast feeding in this study. Guide lines should be developed and implemented related to breast feeding attitude of fathers. Key words: breast feeding, fathers, attitude.

description: Degradation of the mycobacterial complex containing mycolic acids (MAs) by natural bioactive compounds is essential for producing safe and value-added foods with therapeutic activities. This study aimed to determine the degradation efficiency of natural organic acid extracts (i.e., citric, malic, tartaric, and lactic), quadri-mix extract from fruits and probiotics (i.e., lemon, apple, grape, and cell-free supernatant of Lactobacillus acidophilus), and synthetic pure organic acids (i.e., citric, malic, tartaric, and lactic), against MA in vitro in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) and Karish cheese models. The degradation effect was evaluated both individually and in combinations at different concentrations of degradants (1, 1.5, and 2%) and at various time intervals (0, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h). The results show that MA degradation percentage recorded its highest value at 2% of mixed fruit extract quadri-mix with L. acidophilus and reached 99.2% after 48 h both in PBS and Karish cheese, unlike other treatments (i.e., citric + malic + tartaric + lactic), individual acids, and sole extracts at all concentrations. Conversely, organic acid quadri-mix revealed the greatest MA degradation% of 95.9, 96.8, and 97.3% at 1, 1.5, and 2%, respectively, after 48 h. Citric acid was more effective in MA degradation than other acids. The fruit extract quadri-mix combined with L. acidophilus-fortified Karish cheese showed the highest sensorial characteristics; hence, it can be considered a novel food-grade degradant for MA and could be a promising biocontrol candidate against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in food matrices.

description: The acoustic radiation force exerted on a small sphere located at the focus of an ultrasonic beam is measured in a soft gel. It is proved to evolve quadratically with the local amplitude of the acoustic field. Strong oscillations of the local pressure are observed and attributed to an acoustic Fabry-P{é}rot effect between the ultrasonic emitter and the sphere. Taking this effect into account with a simple model, a quantitative link between the radiation force and the acoustic pressure is proposed and compared to theoretical predictions in the absence of dissipation. The discrepancy between experiment and theory suggests that dissipative effects should be taken into account for fully modeling the observations.

 LM morphology: valves are isopolar to slightly heteropolar and linear to narrowly lanceolate, tapering gradually from the middle of the valves towards sub-acute apices (Figs 31–33). Valve morphometrics are as follows: length 19–20 μm, width 2.1–2.2 μm, length to width ratio 8.7–9.3, n = 5. Heteropolarity of the valve, when present, is evidenced by differences in the shape of the apices (i. e., one valve apex may be more bluntly rounded than the opposing end). The raphe is straight and the central area is formed by a stauros that extends to the valve margins (Figs 31–33). The transapical striae are parallel to slightly radiate, 29–30 in 10 μm, n = 5 (Figs 31–33). By focusing through the valve, each pseudoseptum can be seen to extend over ca. 1/5 of the valve length from the apices (Figs 31–33).

An Exploration of Migration and Work Decisions, Values, and Subjective Well-Being of Skilled Immigrants in Australia
Creators: name: Imam, Mary Katherine
Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2023

description: Submission note: A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the La Trobe Business School, College of Arts, Social Sciences and Commerce, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

This thesis explores the skilled immigration experience, enhancing our understanding of the factors influencing emigration decisions and the impact of these experiences on the self-concepts of migrants. Extant migration research explains aggregate migration patterns by push-pull theories focussed on economic motivations of migrants and fails to explore alternative motivating factors or their impact on individuals. An original process model drawing on studies of the self, personal values, and subjective wellbeing traces the impact of core values on the choices of individuals to emigrate from the home country, their assessment of their post-immigration outcomes, and their subjective well-being. The research employs a phenomenological design incorporating semi-structured interviews of 29 skilled immigrants to Australia. Storytelling and data visualisation techniques are used to identify individual claims of values and the impact of those values on subjective well-being, contributing a more nuanced understanding of the phenomenon of skilled migration. The findings suggest a link between the subjective well-being (feelings of contentment, stress and distress) of these skilled immigrants and consistency between core values and life project choices and outcomes. Immigrants who made emigration decisions and experienced post-immigration outcomes that were consistent with core values, exhibited positive subjective well-being which supported a coherent self-concept. This study contributes important findings about the human experience of skilled immigration. By separately examining work expectations and the reason for emigration and the independence of emigration satisfaction and post-immigration employment satisfaction it demonstrates the existence of a wider range of migration motivators. By identifying the distinction between value consistent choices and value consistent outcomes the research incorporates unintended outcomes into the factors to be considered by researchers. Further, it introduces the relationship between value consistency and subjective well-being as a part of a new process model for understanding the impact of the migration experience on the maintenance of a coherent self.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: The national consumption of essential oils in Ethiopia is increasing very fast. Production technology is an essential element to improve the overall yield and quality of essential oil. The objective of this study was the production, optimization and characterization of oil from spearmint leaves using hydro distillation method. The effect of three factors, drying methods (shade, sun and oven drying), drying duration (0, 3 and 7 days) and distillation time (1, 1.5 and 2 hours) on the oil yield was investigated. This paper includes the physical properties of spearmint oil like, density (0.915), refractive index (1.43), pH (6.06) and dynamic viscosity (0.47mPaS).And the chemical properties; saponification value (41.83), acid value (0.045), peroxide value (0.67) and iodine value (17.8) were determined. Design expert software was used to optimize the oil yield and examine the effect of the three factors. General factorial design was chosen for the above mentioned optimization as well as for the data analysis (ANOVA).Then from this study, the best operating conditions are found as drying method (shade), drying time (7 days) and a distillation time of 2 hours. At this condition, a maximum yield of 2.27 % oil is obtained. This research also determined the chemical composition of the oil. From GC/MS result 41 components were obtained.

description: The paper proposes a linesearch for a primal-dual method. Each iteration of the linesearch requires to update only the dual (or primal) variable. For many problems, in particular for regularized least squares, the linesearch does not require any additional matrix-vector multiplications. We prove convergence of the proposed method under standard assumptions. We also show an ergodic $O(1/N)$ rate of convergence for our method. In case one or both of the prox-functions are strongly convex, we modify our basic method to get a better convergence rate. Finally, we propose a linesearch for a saddle point problem with an additional smooth term. Several numerical experiments confirm the efficiency of our proposed methods.

description: With rising electricity demand through digitization and innovation, the urgency of climate change mitigation, and the recent geopolitical crisis, stakeholders in developing countries face the complex task to build reliable, affordable, and low-emission energy systems. Information inaccessibility, data unavailability, and scarce local expertise are major challenges for planning and transitioning to decentralized solutions. Motivated by the calls for more solution-oriented research regarding sustainability, we design, develop, and evaluate the web-based decision support system NESSI4Dweb+ that is tailored to the needs and capabilities of various stakeholders in developing countries. NESSI4Dweb+ is open access and considers location-specific circumstances to facilitate multi-energy planning. Its applicability is demonstrated with a case study of a representative rural village in southern Madagascar and evaluated through seven interviews with experts and stakeholders. We show that NESSI4Dweb+ can support the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and enable the very prerequisite of digitization: reliable electrification.

Attachment Theory and Romantic Relationships: Physical Attractiveness, Attachment Style and the Influence on Attraction and Partner Preference

Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2023

description: Submission note: Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Doctor of Clinical Psychology to the Department of Psychology and Counselling, School of Psychology and Public Health, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

The current research project was a mixed-method investigation of the impact of physical attractiveness and attachment style on partner evaluation, specifically partner preferences and initial relationships for women. Study 1 used a quantitative research design. In Study 1 (N equals 1545), an experiment was conducted using written hypothetical dating vignettes to test participants’ preferences for secure, anxious and avoidant-attached profiles that were accompanied by either a neutral or attractive photograph. Hierarchical regressions and between-subjects ANOVAs indicated that participants preferred secure partners, followed by anxious partners and finally avoidant partners. Insecure participants’ attachment styles had some influence over their preference for partners, showing a slight preference for partners with the same attachment style. There was also a preference for attractive partners over neutral partners. Study 2 (N equals 30) was a qualitative investigation of previous dating experiences women had with individuals of different attachment styles. The aim was to determine what was contributing to their impressions of others, what they noticed about behaviour, how behaviour was evaluated and whether their own attachment style influenced impressions. Inductive content analysis indicated that participant attachment style had minimal impact on perceptions. The findings suggested that nonverbal, attachment-related behaviours contribute to impressions formed about potential partners. Study 3 (N equals 293) had similar aims to Study 1 in investigating attachment style, physical attractiveness and partner preference. Study 3 aimed to build on a gap in the literature and utilise brief videos rather than dating vignettes. Similar analyses to Study 1 indicated a preference for secure and attractive partners, but no effect of participant attachment style on preferences. Overall, the research project demonstrated that both attachment style and physical attractiveness significantly impacted on partner preference. While participant attachment style had some 16 influence on partner preference, this was inconsistent. Future research may benefit from utilising a design with real-life interactions such as speed dating.

description: Faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signal achieves higher spectral efficiency and capacity compared to Nyquist signal due to its smaller pulse interval or narrower subcarrier spacing. Shannon limit typically defines the upper-limit capacity of Nyquist signal. To the best of our knowledge, the mathematical expression for the capacity limit of FTN non-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (NOFDM) signal is first demonstrated in this paper. The mathematical expression shows that FTN NOFDM signal has the potential to achieve a higher capacity limit compared to Nyquist signal. In this paper, we demonstrate the principle of FTN NOFDM by taking fractional cosine transform-based NOFDM (FrCT-NOFDM) for instance. FrCT-NOFDM is first proposed and implemented by both simulation and experiment. When the bandwidth compression factor $α$ is set to $0.8$ in FrCT-NOFDM, the subcarrier spacing is equal to $40\%$ of the symbol rate per subcarrier, thus the transmission rate is about $25\%$ faster than Nyquist rate. FTN NOFDM with higher capacity would be promising in the future communication systems, especially in the bandwidth-limited applications.

LM morphology: valves are isopolar to slightly heteropolar and linear to narrowly lanceolate, tapering gradually from the middle of the valves towards sub-acute apices (Figs 34–36). Valve morphometrics are as follows: length 23–29 μm, width 2.6–2.8 μm, length to width ratio 8.3–10.5, n = 5. The raphe is straight and the central area is formed by a narrow stauros that extends to the valve margins (Figs 34–36). The transapical striae are parallel in the middle of the valve, 30–32 in 10 μm but sometimes undiscernible, n = 4 (Figs 34–36). By focusing through the valve, each pseudoseptum can be seen to extend over ca. 1/5 of the valve length from the apices (Figs 34–36).

description: 3D Mapping-Aided (3DMA) Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is a widely used method to mitigate multipath errors. Various research has been presented which utilizes 3D building model data in conjunction with ray-tracing algorithms to compute and predict satellites’ visibility conditions and compute delays caused by signal reflection. To simulate, model and potentially correct multipath errors in highly dynamic applications, such as, e.g., autonomous driving, the satellite–receiver–reflector geometry has to be known precisely in a common reference frame. Three-dimensional building models are often provided by regional public or private services and the coordinate information is usually given in a coordinate system of a map projection. Inconsistencies in the coordinate frames used to express the satellite and user coordinates, as well as the reflector surfaces, lead to falsely determined multipath errors and, thus, reduce the performance of 3DMA GNSS. This paper aims to provide the needed transformation steps to consider when integrating 3D building model data, user position, and GNSS orbit information. The impact of frame inconsistencies on the computed extra path delay is quantified based on a simulation study in a local 3D building model; they can easily amount to several meters. Differences between the extra path-delay computations in a metric system and a map projection are evaluated and corrections are proposed to both variants depending on the accuracy needs and the intended use.

description: In this paper, a new method is proposed to detect traffic regulations at intersections using GPS traces. The knowledge of traffic rules for regulated locations can help various location-based applications in the context of Smart Cities, such as the accurate estimation of travel time and fuel consumption from a starting point to a destination. Traffic regulations as map features, however, are surprisingly still largely absent from maps, although they do affect traffic flow which, in turn, affects vehicle idling time at intersections, fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, and arrival time. In addition, mapping them using surveying equipment is costly and any update process has severe time constraints. This fact is precisely the motivation for this study. Therefore, its objective is to propose an automatic, fast, scalable, and inexpensive way to identify the type of intersection control (e.g., traffic lights, stop signs). A new method based on summarizing the collective behavior of vehicle crossing intersections is proposed. A modification of a well-known clustering algorithm is used to detect stopping and deceleration episodes. These episodes are then used to categorize vehicle crossing of intersections into four possible traffic categories (p1: free flow, p2: deceleration without stopping events, p3: only one stopping event, p4: more than one stopping event). The percentages of crossings of each class per intersection arm, together with other speed/stop/deceleration features, extracted from trajectories, are then used as features to classify the intersection arms according to their traffic control type (dynamic model). The classification results of the dynamic model are compared with those of the static model, where the classification features are extracted from OpenStreetMap. Finally, a hybrid model is also tested, where a combination of dynamic and static features is used, which outperforms the other two models. For each of the three models, two variants of the feature vector are tested: one where only features associated with a single intersection arm are used (one-arm model) and another where features also from neighboring intersection arms of the same intersection are used to classify an arm (all-arm model). The methodology was tested on three datasets and the results show that all-arm models perform better than single-arm models with an accuracy of 95% to 97%.
Discovering Ways to Keep Life on Track: A Grounded Theory Study of Consumers and Workers Jointly Using an E-mental Health Resource in Community Mental Health
Creators: name: Williams, Anne Elizabeth
Publisher: name: La Trobe

description: Submission note: A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) to the School of Psychology and Public Health, College of Science, Health and Engineering, La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia.

E-mental health resources are becoming increasingly available for people who experience severe mental illness. However, most existing research has focused on the acceptability, feasibility and benefits of e-mental health resources used with minimal human support. The potential for consumers and workers to use these resources together in community mental health practice has not been considered. This constructivist grounded theory study explored the experiences of people living with severe mental illness and mental health workers in Victoria, Australia, who jointly used a purpose-built website known as Self-Management And Recovery Technology (SMART). The website included videos where people shared their lived experience of self-management and recovery. Data were collected in individual semi-structured interviews with 37 consumers and 15 workers after they had used the SMART website together for two to six months. Data analysis involved iterative phases of coding, constant comparison, memo writing, theoretical sampling and consultation with a range of stakeholders to support the study’s credibility and resonance. A substantive grounded theory: ‘discovering ways to keep life on track’ was developed. This process arose from ‘choosing to use the website’, ‘revealing’ and ‘exploring experiences’, and ‘gaining new perspectives’ on how consumers did or could keep their lives on track. The findings indicate that jointly using an e-mental health resource can elicit recovery-supportive processes and interactions between consumers and mental health workers. Consumers gained a sense of connection with peers and hope for the future, while workers experienced more expansive and recovery-focused interactions with consumers. Using the website together enhanced the experience of using an e-mental health resource for consumers and supported consumers and workers to discover a shared understanding of the consumer’s life, self-management and personal recovery. These findings suggest that further work to develop and integrate this novel way of using e-mental health resources into community mental health practice is warranted.

description: In this paper, we study the word problem for automaton semigroups and automaton groups from a complexity point of view. As an intermediate concept between automaton semigroups and automaton groups, we introduce automaton-inverse semigroups, which are generated by partial, yet invertible automata. We show that there is an automaton-inverse semigroup and, thus, an automaton semigroup with a PSPACE-complete word problem. We also show that there is an automaton group for which the word problem with a single rational constraint is PSPACE-complete. Additionally, we provide simpler constructions for the uniform word problems of these classes. For the uniform word problem for automaton groups (without rational constraints), we show NL-hardness. Finally, we investigate a question asked by Cain about a better upper bound for the length of a word on which two distinct elements of an automaton semigroup must act differently.
