description: Sediment saltation in a rough-wall turbulent boundary layer was simulated with a coupled model with large eddy simulation and a discrete element model. The aim is to quantify the saltation process using eddy-resolving fluid simulations and Lagrangian particle tracking. The four-way coupling approach in this work considered the fluid–particle, particle–particle, and particle–wall interactions. Five simulations were performed. For comparison, one simulation with the flow field replaced by a simple log-law profile was also performed. The simulated saltation trajectory, velocity, and collision angles were analysed and we found: (1) Turbulent fluctuation and random collision with the bed are two controlling factors for particle trajectory. Without turbulent fluctuation, the loss of saltation information is severer in the streamwise direction than in other directions. In the spanwise direction, bed collision plays a comparable role to turbulent fluctuation. (2) Particle velocities in the streamwise and vertical directions follow skew-normal distributions. (3) Turbulent fluctuations make the incidence angle wider and slightly enhance the correlation between the incidence and reflection angles.

 Tenthredo costata ist bekannt von N-Italien, ehemaligen Jugoslawien, Ungarn, Griechenland, Rumänien, Bulgarien, Türkei, südwestliche "UdSSR" einschliesslich des Kaukasus (TAEGER 1985).
 Von 13 von Athalia bicolor wurde vom Verfasser der Triungulinus vorsichtig entnommen und in 75%igem Alkohol untersucht. Nach dem Bestimmungsschlüssel der Primärlarven von Meloe spp. von LÜCKMANN (1999), kommt man zu Meloe proscarabaeus L., der auch imaginal vom Festland sowie von mehreren griechischen Inseln bekannt ist (LÜCKMANN & NIEHAUS (2009). Alle neuen an Tenthredinidae festgestellten Triungulinen sehen sich in Grösse, Farbe und groben Merkmalen sehr ähnlich. Eine eindeutige artliche Zuordnung kann aber derzeit nicht gewährleistet werden, was auch mit der Fangtechnik der "falschen" Wirtstiere in Farbschalen zusammenhängt.

description: Several hadronic observables have been studied in central 158 A GeV Pb+Pb collisions using data measured by the WA98 experiment at CERN: single negative pion and kaon production, as well as two- and three-pion interferometry. The Wiedemann-Heinz hydrodynamical model has been fitted to the pion spectrum, giving an estimate of the temperature and transverse flow velocity. Bose-Einstein correlations between two identified negative pions have been analysed as a function of kT, using two different parameterizations. The results indicate that the source does not have a strictly boost invariant expansion or spend time in a long-lived intermediate phase. A comparison between data and a hydrodynamical based simulation shows very good agreement for the radii parameters as a function of kT. The pion phase-space density at freeze-out has been measured and agrees well with the Tomasik-Heinz model. A large pion chemical potential close to the condensation limit of the pion mass seems to be excluded. The three-pion Bose-Einstein interferometry shows a substantial contribution of the genuine three-pion correlation, but not quite as large as expected for a fully chaotic and symmetric source.

description: Mental illness significantly impacts on quality of life for Australian individuals and communities. Providing effective and appropriate mental health services remains a challenge for governments, though a skilled and expert mental health workforce has been identified as key toensuring positive outcomes for mental health consumers. Skilled mental health professionalsare required to be able to respond to changing models of care, and policy and fundingenvironments. As a result, many mental health practitioners are seeking continuing professionaldevelopment opportunities to enhance their skills and capabilities. To meet the developmentneeds of mental health practitioners and respond to workforce demands, postgraduate qualifications have been introduced by higher education institutes. Continuing education has largely focussed on coursework, or “formal” education, but there is increasing interest in work-based learning as a process to improve the capability of health practitioners, increase the relevance of education, and provide professionals with the skills necessary to continue to learn across their working lives. Work-based learning was defined in this study as the process whereby universities and work organisations create new learning opportunities within the workplace (Boud & Solomon, 2001). Many students undertaking postgraduate qualifications are often already working within professional settings. It is, therefore, important that learning is negotiated and derived from the needs of the student and the workplace to ensure relevance and appropriate capacity development. In response, higher education institutes need to develop appropriate, flexible pedagogies that engage students and industry stakeholders in the education process.

description: There has been rapidly growing interest in the use of algorithms in hiring, especially as a means to address or mitigate bias. Yet, to date, little is known about how these methods are used in practice. How are algorithmic assessments built, validated, and examined for bias? In this work, we document and analyze the claims and practices of companies offering algorithms for employment assessment. In particular, we identify vendors of algorithmic pre-employment assessments (i.e., algorithms to screen candidates), document what they have disclosed about their development and validation procedures, and evaluate their practices, focusing particularly on efforts to detect and mitigate bias. Our analysis considers both technical and legal perspectives. Technically, we consider the various choices vendors make regarding data collection and prediction targets, and explore the risks and trade-offs that these choices pose. We also discuss how algorithmic de-biasing techniques interface with, and create challenges for, antidiscrimination law.

description: Taeniapion atlanticum (Uyttenboogaart, 1935)
(Fig. 8)
 It is surprising that WOLLASTON (1864) should have confused this species with the common British and European T. urticarium (Herbst, 1784) (= vernale Fabricius, 1792) as they are clearly distinct, T. atlanticum being more delicate, with the rostrum, in particular, finer, longer and straighter than that of T. urticarium. In fact, T. atlanticum is closer to T. rufulum (Wencker, 1864), though that species was probably not known to Wollaston as it was described only in 1864, and the similarity has not been remarked on by other workers. It is strange that UYTTENBOOGAART (1935) regarded the taxon as only a subspecies of T. urticarium. However, the genus Taeniapion is in need of revision and the status of Macaronesian species should be reassessed. Taeniapion atlanticum was reported to be ‘extremely local in the Canaries’ by WOLLASTON (1864, as vernale) and ‘bastante rara’ by BRITO & OROMÍ (1986); few records are listed by GURREA & SANZ (2000), implying that the species is indeed rare. This is in general my experience; I have recorded the weevil only at S. Juan de la Rambla, Tenerife, in March 1993 and at Las Corrales, near Teror, Gran Canaria in January 2004. In both cases it occurred in company with T. delicatulum and at the latter site the host was identified as Urtica morifolia. Taeniapion atlanticum has been recorded from Hierro as well as Gran Canaria, and FRANZ (1995) found it to be frequent ‘in recent years’ in Hierro, where I have worked for it in vain (although T. delicatulum was often abundant). WOLLASTON (1864) recorded T. atlanticum (as Apion vernale) from Urtica urens, but this is not the only urticaceous host. FRANZ (1995) found the weevil on Gesnouinia arborea, interesting in that this is also an adult host of the weevil Leiosoma apionides (Wollaston, 1864), which is also found on Urtica morifolia (MORRIS 2004).
 Wollaston’s BMNH material consists of 1 male and 3 females from Tenerife and a male from El Hierro; 2 males and 3 females from Tenerife and a male from El Hierro are in his OUMNH series, indicating an almost exact division of his material between London and Oxford. The specimens stand under the name Apion vernale F.

description: The availability of productive land is one of the important factors of production to encourage regional economic growth. Kerinci in Jambi Province of Indonesia is one of the regions that experienced this problem, because of the total area of Kerinci Regency covering an area of 3328.14 km², there is 59.8 percent of Kerinci Seblat National Park area which must be protected and 40.1 percent that can be managed as productive land and residential areas. Planning, strategies and optimizing the management of village funds are a form of solution to resolve these problems. Good management of village funds is expected to be able to encourage an increase in village income and regional economic growth. This paper also examines the comparative regional income, GDRP growth rate, Human Development Index, Total Poor Population and Open Unemployment Rate, especially in the buffer areas of Kerinci Seblat National Park in Kerinci, Jambi Province before and after the village fund program.

description: In the present study, we report synthesis, characterization, structural and theoretical studies of two copper(II) complexes, [Cu(py)2(L1)2] (1) and [Cu(phen)(Ac)2-Cu2(Ac)4]n (2), and a nickel(II) complex, [Ni(bipy)(L)(Ac)] (3), where py = pyridine, L1 = 3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, Ac = acetate ion, bipy = 2,2’-bipyridine and HL = 4-bromo-2-(Z)-(naphthalene-2-ylimino)methyl) phenol. The new complexes were fully characterized using microanalysis, FAB-mas (m/z), FT-IR, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectra, X-band EPR spectroscopy and then by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. X-ray studies of 1 and 3 revealed distorted octahedral geometries. Complex 2 is a coordination polymer built by an octahedral copper unit Cu(phen)(Ac)2 alternating with paddle wheel species Cu2(Ac)4, located on a crystallographic center of symmetry, where an acetate anion bridges the two crystallographic independent copper ions. The fluorescence intensities and quantum yields of 1 and 2 were found to be more compared to 3. The preliminary tests in the potential application for theoretical biological activities of compounds have also been studied. Furthermore, we also performed quantum chemical calculations to get insights into the structure-property relationships of the synthesized complexes. The quantum chemical calculations were used for theoretical calculations of linear polarizability and third-order nonlinear optical polarizability (γ) for 1, 2 and 3. Besides this, the theoretical calculations, including the analysis of frontier molecular orbitals and electrostatic potential diagrams, are used to highlight the theoretical aspects of metal to ligand charge transfer (MLCT) processes in the studied complexes.

description: We study if commonly used nucleon-nucleon effective interactions, obtained from fitting the properties of cold nuclear matter and of finite nuclei, can properly describe the hot dense nuclear matter produced in intermediate-energy heavy-ion collisions. We use two representative effective interactions, i.e., an improved isospin- and momentum-dependent interaction with its isovector part calibrated by the results from the \emph{ab initio} non-perturbative self-consistent Green's function (SCGF) approach with chiral forces, and a Skyme-type interaction fitted to the equation of state of cold nuclear matter from chiral effective many-body perturbation theory and the binding energy of finite nuclei. In the mean-field approximation, we evaluate the equation of state and the single-nucleon potential for nuclear matter at finite temperatures and compare them to those from the SCGF approach. We find that the improved isospin- and momentum-dependent interaction reproduces reasonably well the SCGF results due to its weaker momentum dependence of the mean-field potential than in the Skyrme-type interaction. Our study thus indicates that effective interactions with the correct momentum dependence of the mean-filed potential can properly describe the properties of hot dense nuclear matter and are thus suitable for use in transport models to study heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies.

description: Previous work shows that auto-ignition propagation modes for strong knocking in engines are dominated by both chemical reactivity and energy density. To clarify the unique role of energy density and chemical reactivity, hotspot auto-ignition induced reaction wave propagation was investigated using direct numerical simulations, addressing the detonation regime in the detonation peninsula. Different operating conditions and mixture components were employed to design specific chemical reactivity and energy density under engine-relevant conditions. Various auto-ignition propagation modes were quantitatively investigated. The results show that unified standards for detonation development and high-accuracy excitation time are necessary for constructing a detonation peninsula. Energy density promotes detonation development and broadens the detonation regime, especially at large hotspot sizes. Meanwhile, there are positive correlations between peak pressure and energy density during detonation development, and the pressure peak can reach an amplitude beyond detonation equilibrium pressure. Furthermore, the improvement in chemical reactivity suppresses detonation development at small hotspot sizes while promoting detonation development at large hotspot sizes. But the variations in chemical reactivity caused by thermal effects show a greater significance than by fuel properties. Besides, obvious distinctions in peak pressure can be identified with the variations of reactivity gradient, and the amplitude always attains the maximum level just when detonation occurs at the edge of the hotspot. Underlying reasons are ascribed to the initial non-uniform distribution of energy density within the hotspot. Meanwhile, the reactivity progress of the remaining mixtures also affects energy density outside the hotspot.

description: We do the study whether the ownership structure has any effect on earnings management in Indonesian listed banks during 2010-2017. Ownership structure consists of managerial, institutional, family and government ownership. Earnings management is measured using Jones modification formula by identifying the value of discretionary accruals. Since the financial ratios used in this sector are different with the ratios for other sectors, then we use two specific ratios: capital adequacy ratio and non-performing loans, together with return on assets, leverage, and size. We take samples from banking companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2010-2017. The analysis used in this study is the multiple linear regression analysis. The finding is that the ownership structure has a significant effect on earnings management.

description: The study enters the contested environment of the role of universities in an increasingly globalised world where geographically mobile students from diverse national backgrounds are seeking tertiary qualifications in foreign higher education institutions. In this space, questions are asked about the purpose and function of universities with respect to the nature of students (whether domestic or international), and the goals of university programs (whether applied and vocational, or liberal in purpose). Key stakeholders in this debate are universities, governments and industry. Some researchers argue that more collaboration is needed between these three stakeholders in order to increase the employability of graduates. Furthermore, the perceptions and expectations of industry about requisite graduate attributes tend to differ from country to country. There is, therefore, a risk that international students’ ideas of employability may differ from those that shape the curriculum of the degree programs of their host university. Whether universities should accommodate their international students’ specific needs in relation to employability in their home countries is contested.

Access to Credit and Households’ Borrowing Behavior in East Africa

Subjects: subject: 130203 Economics, Business and Management Curriculum and Pedagogy

description: The primary objective of this paper is to examine how the borrowing behavior of households in the East African region are influenced by their demographic characteristics- gender, age, income and education using Tobit regression. The paper employs survey data adapted from the World Bank's 2017 Global Findex. The results show that male-headed households borrow more often than female-headed households, and that older head of households are more likely to participate in borrowing activities than their younger counterparts. Generally, the results reveal that the household whose age is relatively small should be more indebted and will have a lower level of income, and consequently fewer physical assets. This is due to the life-cycle theory which suggests that younger households have expectations of their income to rise in the future as opposed to the older households, who are heading to retirement. So, they are more willing to borrow and acquire durables and other assets due to their hopes and expectation of getting more income in the future. On the other hand, the findings reveal that the education of the head of the household is the enabling factor for the household to borrow due to the financial literacy awareness one can derive from education. The income level of the household is also considered as the determining factor of the household's borrowing likely-hood. Since borrowing requires the guarantee in terms of borrower's income, the higher the income levels of the borrower the more likely the individual will receive the loan from the lenders. Despite household's education, age and income the results also show that the gender of the households influences the borrowing behavior of the households and that women may not have the borrowing power and ability as compared to their men counterparts. This may be due to their inability to have collateral and guarantees used as loan back-up, their poor financial education awareness, and lower business experience. Therefore, understanding households' borrowing behavior in East Africa is very important, and the results of the study may be of policy interest towards the strengthening of the East African Community financial inclusion agenda. Also, the study commends governments of the East African region to promote households' borrowing and increase opportunities for household investment in achieving intended economic growth.

description: Superconductivity in the type-II Weyl semimetal candidate MoTe$_2$ has attracted much attention due to the possible realization of topological superconductivity. Under applied pressure, the superconducting transition temperature is significantly enhanced, while the structural transition from the high-temperature 1$T'$ phase to the low-temperature $T_d$ phase is suppressed. Hence, applying pressure allows us to investigate the dimensionality of superconductivity in 1$T'$-MoTe$_2$. We have performed a detailed study of the magnetotransport properties and upper critical field $H_{c2}$ of MoTe$_2$ under pressure. The magnetoresistance (MR) and Hall coefficient of MoTe$_2$ are found to be decreasing with increasing pressure. In addition, the Kohler's scalings for the MR data above $\sim$11 kbar show a change of exponent whereas the data at lower pressure can be well scaled with a single exponent. These results are suggestive of a Fermi surface reconstruction when the structure changes from the $T_d$ to 1$T'$ phase. The $H_{c2}$-temperature phase diagram constructed at 15 kbar, with $H\parallel ab$ and $H\perp ab$, can be satisfactorily described by the Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg model with the Maki parameters $α\sim$ 0.77 and 0.45, respectively. The relatively large $α$ may stem from a small Fermi surface and a large effective mass of semimetallic MoTe$_2$. The angular dependence of $H_{c2}$ at 15 kbar can be well fitted by the Tinkham model, suggesting the two-dimensional nature of superconductivity in the high-pressure 1$T'$ phase.

description: We present a method for estimating parameters in stochastic models of biochemical reaction networks by fitting steady-state distributions using Wasserstein distances. We simulate a reaction network at different parameter settings and train a Gaussian process to learn the Wasserstein distance between observations and the simulator output for all parameters. We then use Bayesian optimization to find parameters minimizing this distance based on the trained Gaussian process. The effectiveness of our method is demonstrated on the three-stage model of gene expression and a genetic feedback loop for which moment-based methods are known to perform poorly. Our method is applicable to any simulator model of stochastic reaction networks, including Brownian Dynamics.

In the realm of quantum electrodynamics we derive the interaction that produces entanglement between the spin components of covariant Dirac spinors describing the two particles. Following this consistent approach the relativistic invariance of the generated entanglement is discussed.

description: We present FlipTest, a black-box technique for uncovering discrimination in classifiers. FlipTest is motivated by the intuitive question: had an individual been of a different protected status, would the model have treated them differently? Rather than relying on causal information to answer this question, FlipTest leverages optimal transport to match individuals in different protected groups, creating similar pairs of in-distribution samples. We show how to use these instances to detect discrimination by constructing a "flipset": the set of individuals whose classifier output changes post-translation, which corresponds to the set of people who may be harmed because of their group membership. To shed light on why the model treats a given subgroup differently, FlipTest produces a "transparency report": a ranking of features that are most associated with the model's behavior on the flipset. Evaluating the approach on three case studies, we show that this provides a computationally inexpensive way to identify subgroups that may be harmed by model discrimination, including in cases where the model satisfies group fairness criteria.

description: Aspects of the formation and equilibration of a quark-gluon plasma are explored using a quantum kinetic equation, which involves a non-Markovian, Abelian source term for quark and antiquark production and, for the collision term, a relaxation time approximation that defines a time-dependent quasi-equilibrium temperature and collective velocity. The strong Abelian field is determined via the simultaneous solution of Maxwell's equation. A particular feature of this approach is the appearance of plasma oscillations in all thermodynamic observables. Their presence can lead to a sharp increase in the time-integrated dilepton yield.

title: Prepared for Difference? Exploring Child Protection Practice with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Families in Rural Australia
Creators: name: Aitchison, Rosslyn
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Child protection practice, Australia
subject: Aboriginal children in child protection
subject: Torres Strait Islander children in child protection
subject: Stolen generation

description: In Australia, over-representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in child protection systems is increasing. The legacy of the stolen generation has led to grief, sadness and loss of identity for many people, and major disparities in health, education, employment and housing means that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families are more susceptible to child welfare interventions in the present and future. This makes it imperative that responses for these families are more effective, in order to achieve socially just outcomes. As well, Australia’s growing multicultural society has increased demand for services provided to people from diverse cultural backgrounds to recognise the impact and importance of culture and to respond effectively. Cultural competency, which focuses on developing knowledge, skills and values for cross cultural practice, has gained momentum. It aims to enhance the ability of workers to provide culturally relevant and effective responses to people from different cultural backgrounds. However, ensuring that practices in the human services are culturally appropriate, culturally safe, salient, and effective, has proved elusive.

title: 'Of The People, By The People, For The People' Workers' Compensation in Queensland: The Rise and Fall of a Policy Community
Creators: name: Cowan, Paula
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Workers' compensation model
subject: core value in government
subject: state-controlled monopoly
subject: policy community

description: The central question posed in this thesis is why has the Queensland model of workers' compensation been so enduring? The legislation remained largely intact from 1916 until 2001, with the exception of the years from 1996 to 1998. This was so despite the fact the central feature of a state-controlled monopoly that underpinned this model was always potentially divisive in line with the variances between liberal-conservative traditions and social-democratic ideals that subsisted in broader political culture. In addressing this question of longevity, this thesis explores the capacity of an initially contentious piece of legislation to draw strong support from former opponents, and the argument is put forward that it is best explained through the development and operation of a policy community that fostered a shared set of core values relative to broad workers' compensation policy preferences. These core values were compulsory state monopoly, no fault insurance and full access to common law. Thus, the longevity of the legislation is attributed to the continued support by key stakeholders of these core values. The thesis also demonstrates that policy community relations deteriorated during the 1990s as governments responded to broader political pressures precipitated by reform agendas. Inconsistencies in core values and policy outcomes for each stakeholder emerged as governments attempted to assert unprecedented control over the direction of workers' compensation in order to meet broader political goals. The legislation was threatened as relations within the policy community proved unsustainable when existing core values were contested.
Temporal Interferometry: A Mechanism for Controlling Qubit Transitions During Twisted Rapid Passage with Possible Application to Quantum Computing
Creators: name: Gaitan, Frank
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In an adiabatic rapid passage experiment, the Bloch vector of a two-level system (qubit) is inverted by slowly inverting an external field to which it is coupled, and along which it is initially aligned. In twisted rapid passage, the external field is allowed to twist around its initial direction with azimuthal angle $ϕ(t)$ at the same time that it is inverted. For polynomial twist: $ϕ(t) \sim Bt^{n}$. We show that for $n \geq 3$, multiple avoided crossings can occur during the inversion of the external field, and that these crossings give rise to strong interference effects in the qubit transition probability. The transition probability is found to be a function of the twist strength $B$, which can be used to control the time-separation of the avoided crossings, and hence the character of the interference. Constructive and destructive interference are possible. The interference effects are a consequence of the temporal phase coherence of the wavefunction. The ability to vary this coherence by varying the temporal separation of the avoided crossings renders twisted rapid passage with adjustable twist strength into a temporal interferometer through which qubit transitions can be greatly enhanced or suppressed. Possible application of this interference mechanism to construction of fast fault-tolerant quantum CNOT and NOT gates is discussed.

Sequential quantum phase transitions in $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg chains with integer spins ($S > 1$): Quantized Berry phase and valence-bond solids

description: On the basis of a Berry-phase analysis, we study the ground state of the $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg chain for $S=2,3,4$. We find that changes of the Berry phase occur $S$ times for spin-$S$ systems, indicating the sequential phase transitions. The sequential phase transitions are associated with the change of valence-bond configurations of the ground states. To demonstrate this numerically, we connect the $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg Hamiltonian with the generalized Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki model, and show that the different phases are connected to the different valence-bond-solid states.
