description: The interest of this study is to explore the psychological factors in the maintenance of an endurance task in subjects with low back pain. It therefore seemed interesting to identify and analyze the role of an acceptance strategy in patients with chronic low back pain in the maintenance of an endurance task. We will explore, through an endurance task, the acute effects of an acceptance intervention. The specific objective is to define to what extent preferential orientation towards acceptance contributes to the effects of the intervention. In this study the participants, aged between 18 and 55 years old, will all have chronic non-specific low back pain which means at least 12 weeks of painful episodes in the past year. In addition, those who have undergone spinal surgery or acute pain will be automatically excluded. In order to participate in the study, they will have to be available for 2 hours and sign an informed consent. During the task, muscular activity of the back muscles will be recorded by surface electromyography.

Copengauging: Toward a grounded theory of middle-managerial coping
Creators: name: Roberts, Andrew Dougall
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Despite the move towards flatter organisations, middle managers continue to play a pivotal role. The thesis offers insights on how middle managers cope with shifting realities and unrelenting pressures. In-depth interviews revealed that middle managers undertake an iterative and dynamic psycho-social process through which they reflexively gauge their environment and then cope by varying their levels of engagement. Thus the thesis, somewhat counter-intuitively, puts forth 'disengagement' as a legitimate coping mechanism. The findings inform organisations on how they might lower the stress levels and enhance the mental health and well-being of their employees in general and middle managers in particular.

description: This study assessed the contributions of urban green spaces on mental health with joint consideration of people’s physiological and psychological responses. The psychological and physiological responses of participants aged between 22 and 28, who visited green spaces in a low-density area of Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China, were measured using Perceived Restorativeness Scale (PRS) methods and biometric wearable sensing devices, respectively. Results showed that exposure to green space led to significant changes in PRS, electrodermal activity (EDA), facial electromyography (EMG), respiration sensor (RESP), and photoplethysmography (PPG), while there is no significant impact on skin temperature (SKT). Additionally, psychological and physiological responses were highly consistent and correlated (R < 0.8). The results also indicated that green spaces with high plant species richness, a water landscape, bumpy ground, cultural landscape, and without roadways presented a high performance on stress recovery and attention restoration. At the same time, the influence of openness was negligible in the low-density area. The study provides planners and landscape designers with specific guidance for implementing urban green spaces to improve mental health in low-density residential areas.

description: We present an extension of the summation-by-parts (SBP) framework to tensor-product spectral-element operators in collapsed coordinates. The proposed approach enables the construction of provably stable discretizations of arbitrary order which combine the geometric flexibility of unstructured triangular and tetrahedral meshes with the efficiency of sum-factorization algorithms. Specifically, a methodology is developed for constructing triangular and tetrahedral spectral-element operators of any order which possess the SBP property (i.e. satisfying a discrete analogue of integration by parts) as well as a tensor-product decomposition. Such operators are then employed within the context of discontinuous spectral-element methods based on nodal expansions collocated at the tensor-product quadrature nodes as well as modal expansions employing Proriol-Koornwinder-Dubiner polynomials, the latter approach resolving the time step limitation associated with the singularity of the collapsed coordinate transformation. Energy-stable formulations for curvilinear meshes are obtained using a skew-symmetric splitting of the metric terms, and a weight-adjusted approximation is used to efficiently invert the curvilinear modal mass matrix. The proposed schemes are compared to those using non-tensorial multidimensional SBP operators, and are found to offer comparable accuracy to such schemes in the context of smooth linear advection problems on curved meshes, but at a reduced computational cost for higher polynomial degrees.

description: Nigeria's vast solar energy potential remains underutilized due to inefficiencies in solar power generation. This study investigates the effectiveness of a microcontroller-based dual-axis solar tracker in optimizing photovoltaic efficiency. The system dynamically adjusts solar panel orientation to maximize sunlight exposure. Empirical tests at Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) showed a 2% improvement in energy generation compared to fixed panels. However, the power consumption of the tracking motors largely offset these gains, raising concerns about the overall efficiency and feasibility of such systems for large-scale use. The tracker employs servo motors controlled by a microcontroller, with light-dependent resistors (LDRs) enhancing sunlight detection and tracking accuracy. To improve efficiency, the study recommends low-power actuators and AI-based tracking algorithms to minimize unnecessary movements, reduce mechanical wear, and lower energy consumption. AI-driven predictive tracking could enhance system durability and cost-effectiveness, making solar tracking more viable for long-term deployment in Nigeria’s renewable energy sector. While dual-axis tracking offers potential benefits, its practical implementation requires further refinements to achieve an optimal balance of energy efficiency, reliability, and affordability for widespread adoption

The Influence of Familial Socialization and Involvement on the Multiple Identities and the Academic Performance of African American Adolescent Girls
Creators: name: Lindsay-Dennis, LaShawnda
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2009

description: Parental behaviors and socialization practices are among the most cited micro-level factors related to adolescents? performance in school. For African American youth, families provide the foundation for negotiating their identities and learning ?how to go to school? in a racist and sexist society (Hill, 2002; Jeynes, 2005). Yet, a sparse amount of research has examined familial factors that shape African American girls? identity development and academic outcomes. This mixed method study examined how racial socialization, ethnic socialization and parental involvement influence African American adolescent girls? multiple identities and academic performance. Participants included African American girls (N=106) between the ages of 11 and 14. Data were collected using a questionnaire and focus group interviews. The questionnaire included racial identity, gender identity, racial socialization, ethnic socialization, and parental involvement scales. Student grades were retrieved from schools administrators. Stepwise regression analysis was employed to examine the associations among familial socialization and involvement, identity factors and academic performance. Socialization messages regarding African American history, and coping with racial discrimination were negatively related to African American girls? academic performance. Socialization messages regarding African American cultural values were positively related to African American girls? academic performance. African American girls who were frequently exposed to African American cultural expressions, taught the African American value system, and taught strategies for dealing with racial discrimination were highly aware of how others view African Americans, had positive feelings about being Black, and their blackness was central to their identity. Gender identity exploration was linked to transmission of African American values and celebrating African American heritage. Gender belongingness/affirmation was predicted by messages about African American history. Six focus group interviews were conducted with girls (n=45) randomly selected from the larger sample. Participant answered questions about their feelings about their gender and racial groups, preparation for womanhood, and parental messages about academic achievement. A modified ground theory of data analysis was used to examine the focus group data. Four themes emerged from focus groups: (1) the importance of race and gender, (2) socialization for black womanhood, (3) avoiding a legacy of school failure, and (4) using education as a tool for personal advancement.

description: The thrombotic thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS), a complication of COVID-19 vaccines, involves thrombosis (often cerebral venous sinus thrombosis) and thrombocytopenia with occasional pulmonary embolism and arterial ischemia. TTS appears to mostly affect females aged between 20 and 50 years old, with no predisposing risk factors conclusively identified so far. Cases are characterized by thrombocytopenia, higher levels of D-dimers than commonly observed in venous thromboembolic events, inexplicably low fibrinogen levels and worsening thrombosis. Hyper fibrinolysis associated with bleeding can also occur. Antibodies that bind platelet factor 4, similar to those associated with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, have also been identified but in the absence of patient exposure to heparin treatment. A number of countries have now suspended the use of adenovirus-vectored vaccines for younger individuals. The prevailing opinion of most experts is that the risk of developing COVID-19 disease, including thrombosis, far exceeds the extremely low risk of TTS associated with highly efficacious vaccines. Mass vaccination should continue but with caution. Vaccines that are more likely to cause TTS (e.g., Vaxzevria manufactured by AstraZeneca) should be avoided in younger patients for whom an alternative vaccine is available.

 Hydrometra akekawati Sites & Polhemus, 2003: 138, syn.n.
 We have compared the characters of paratypes of H. yasumatsui Miyamoto, 1964 (in ZRC) and H. akekawati Sites & Polhemus, 2003 (in NHMW) and recognized the two taxa as conspecific. According to Polhemus (1992) H. yasumatsui is a junior synonym of H. okinawana Drake, 1951, therefore H. okinawana is the correct name for that species. Hydrometra okinawana and H. yasumatsui were described from Japan and were unknown from the Oriental fauna and for this reason they are not treated in the revision by Polhemus & Polhemus (1995). Although it apparently is a rare species, we were able to record H. okinawana from West Malaysia, Singapore, and Borneo. Hydrometra akekawati was described from northeastern Thailand. Sites & Polhemus (2003) described the “micropterous form” and stated that the brachypterous and macropterous forms are unknown. Because all Oriental species are either monomorphic or have a micropterous/ macropterous or brachypterous/macropterous wing dimorphism, this statement may lead to the assumption that H. akekawati belongs to that species group, which consists of the (predominantly) micropterous species H. mindoroensis Polhemus, 1976, H. cracens Polhemus & Polhemus, 1995, and H. chaweewanae Sites & Polhemus, 2003. However, using the terminology of Polhemus & Polhemus (1995), the type material of H. akekawati is brachypterous: “Mesothoracic wing extending posteriorly to level of anterior end of connexiva.” (Sites & Polhemus, 2003). Therefore, H. okinawana (= yasumatsui = akekawati syn.n.) is eventually more closely related with H. jaczewskii Lundblad, 1933.

description: This case study uses the Takoha framework (developed by Te Hiringa Hauora | Health Promotion Agency) as an analytical tool to showcase the Mana Pasifika approach to support overall health and wellbeing. Mana Pasifika was launched to address the psychosocial impact of the Covid-19 lockdown for Pacific peoples living in Aotearoa New Zealand.Takoha is a tool to understand if and how we are making a difference to the health and wellbeing of all New Zealanders. It links together health promotion activity and the vision of Pae Ora, which defines healthy futures for Māori and all New Zealanders.Mana PasifikaIn April 2020, Te Whatu Ora Health Promotion (formerly Te Hiringa Hauora) was tasked with developing a social campaign to address the psychosocial impacts of the first Covid-19 lockdown for Pacific peoples. The social campaign became Mana Pasifika. Over the years, this campaign has evolved to become a Health and Wellbeing approach for Pacific peoples living in New Zealand.Mana Pasifika takes a strengths-based and rights-based approach that is grounded in Pacific values of respect, alofa (love), acts of service, aiga (family), and building relationships with communities at the centre. Key themesA one-to-one talanoa session was held with the Pacific partners about how to amplify the voices of communities through Mana Pasifika. The case study highlights the following:Intentional partnerships are vital to Pacific peoples as a collectiveMana Pasifika is a form of expression for Pacific peoples Indigenising and decolonising health promotion processes better serve Pacific communities Representation matters for Pacific peoples The vā is very significant for Pacific peoples when working together Power dynamics must be addressed “to be all in the same fale” Community voice is an integral part of Mana Pasifika Culturally safe practices are critical when engaging with Pacific peoples.
Characterisation of highly weathered phyllite via in-situ pressuremeter test for the assesment of pipe-jacking forces
Creators: name: Phangkawira, Fredrik
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Highly weathered phyllite rock mass was encountered during installation of trunk sewer pipelines via pipe-jacking in Kuching, Malaysia. The rock mass was difficult to characterise via conventional means due to its highly fractured state. This research develops a novel method to characterise the highly weathered phyllite using pressuremeter tests. The developed method has been validated for its application in the assessment of pipe-jacking forces. One of the main contributions of this research is the ability to use pressuremeter test as an alternative testing apparatus for characterising highly weathered phyllite, whose results can be applied for the assessment of pipe-jacking forces.

description: Background: Choose to Move (CTM) is one of few scaled-up health-promoting interventions for older adults. We evaluated whether CTM participants maintained their intervention-related gains in physical activity (PA), mobility and social connectedness 12 months after the intervention ended. Methods: We assessed PA, mobility, loneliness, social isolation and muscle strength via questionnaire and objective measures in 235 older adults at baseline, 6-months (end of intervention) and 18-months (12-months post-intervention). We fitted linear mixed models to examine change in each outcome from 6 to 18 months (primary objective) and 0 to 18 months (secondary objective) and report by age group (60-74; 75+ yrs). Results: In younger participants, PA decreased between 6- and 18-months but remained significantly higher than at baseline. Intervention-related benefits in loneliness, social isolation, mobility and muscle strength were maintained between 6 and 18 months in younger participants. Older participants maintained their intervention benefits in loneliness, mobility and muscle strength. When compared with baseline, PA levels in older participants were unchanged whereas social isolation increased. Conclusions: Older adults maintained some, but not all, health benefits of CTM 12 months after the intervention ended. Long-term commitments are needed to deliver effective health-promoting interventions for older adults--if benefits are to be maintained.

description: One of the most important hyper-parameters in duration-dependent Markov-switching (DDMS) models is the duration of the hidden states. Because there is currently no procedure for estimating this duration or testing whether a given duration is appropriate for a given data set, an ad hoc duration choice must be heuristically justified. In this paper, we propose and examine a methodology that mitigates the choice of duration in DDMS models when forecasting is the goal. Two Monte Carlo simulations, based on classical applications of DDMS models, are employed to evaluate the methodology. In addition, an empirical investigation is carried out to forecast the volatility of the S\&P 500, which showcases the capabilities of the proposed model.

description: Spintronics has become a broad and important research field that intersects with magnetism, nano-electronics, and materials science. Its overarching aim is to provide a fundamental understanding of spin-dependent phenomena in solid-state systems that can enable a new generation of spin-based logic devices. Over the past decade, graphene and related 2D van der Waals crystals have taken center stage in expanding the scope and potential of spintronic materials. Their distinctive electronic properties and atomically thin nature have opened new opportunities to probe and manipulate internal electronic degrees of freedom. Purely electrical control over conduction-electron spins can be attained in graphene-transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures, due to proximity effects combined with graphene's high electronic mobility. Specifically, graphene experiences a proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling that enables efficient spin-charge interconversion processes; the two most well-known and at the forefront of current research are the spin Hall and inverse spin galvanic effects, wherein an electrical current yields a spin current and non-equilibrium spin polarization, respectively. This article provides an overview of the basic principles, theory, and experimental methods underpinning the nascent field of 2D material-based spintronics.

Understanding the reasons negative evaluation is feared by individuals with social anxiety
Creators: name: Jillard, Christopher
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Individuals with higher levels of social anxiety, compared to those with lower social anxiety, exhibit greater fear of negative evaluation by others. However, the reasons underlying this fear of negative evaluation, and mechanisms of change underlying its response to treatment, are unclear. Dr Jillard’s thesis established that the experience of shame in response to negative evaluation was a key mechanism contributing to heightened fear of negative evaluation and its response to treatment. The clarification of this mechanism makes a valuable contribution to understanding of how cognitive behaviour therapy can be modified with new treatment targets.

High-definition mapping of the atria using a novel multipolar mapping catheter in patients with complex adult congenital heart disease
Creators: name: Paymard, Mohammad
name: Chakrabarti, Santabhanu
Publisher: name: BioMed Central
Year: 2021

description: Background The Advisor™ HD Grid Mapping Catheter (Abbott Technologies, Minneapolis, MN) has been recently introduced. Although the clinical use of HD Grid mapping catheter is well described in adults with no congenital heart disease, there is limited data on the feasibility of using the HD Grid multipolar catheter to create voltage and activation mapping in adults with congenital heart disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and technical feasibility of using the Advisor™ HD Grid mapping catheter during the catheter ablation of atrial arrhythmias in adults with congenital heart disease. We included 6 consecutive adults with congenital heart disease suffering from atrial arrhythmias in our study. The HD Grid mapping catheter was used to perform voltage and activation mapping. Results Six patients with congenital heart diseases (d-TGA n = 1, Tricuspid atresia n = 1, atrioventricular defect repair n = 1, secundum atrial septal defect n = 1, double-inlet single-ventricle n = 1, Tetralogy of Fallot = 1); majority (84%) male, with the mean age was 35 ± 10 years included in our series. The mean ablation duration and the fluoroscopy time were 789 ± 433 and 502 ± 355 s, respectively. The mean radiation dose was 7.52 ± 9 milliGy/cm2. The HD Grid mapping catheter was used successfully for entire arrhythmia mapping in 5 out of 6 cases. During one procedure, HD Grid mapping catheter could not be used for the entire mapping due to suboptimal reach through baffle puncture. The acute success rate of ablation was 100% with no immediate complications. Conclusions The use of HD Grid mapping catheter is a safe and valuable adjunct to accurately create voltage and activation mapping in ACHD patients undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation. However, a contact force-sensing ablation catheter should be considered in conjunction to supplement data acquisition in challenging anatomy and substrates.
Media-engaged home renovation and the transition to zero carbon homes: Understanding change in everyday practices at home
Creators: name: Hunter, Shae
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This thesis explores how media engagement shapes home renovation and the transition to zero carbon housing. Drawing on qualitative data from 17 households across Victoria, Australia, it demonstrates how the house is reimagined via meanings and competencies of comfort, cleanliness and control, shaping future practices and the spatial and material configurations that support them. The critical role of imagination in media engagement and crises in routine as a precursor to change are emphasised. Findings reveal opportunities for media content to engage with future imagined practices and for environmental sustainability to be reimagined as a shaping principle in home renovation.
