description: This project investigated how fenced, vegetated stream protection zones can be effective for improving water quality in a drinking water catchment that contains grazed farmland. It achieved this by monitoring a range of pollutants from unprotected and protected catchments under different conditions, as well as by monitoring the activity of cattle in the stream. When cattle entered the stream, they immediately reduced water quality by disturbing the stream bed. As a result, excluding cattle with fenced protection zones will improve water quality immediately. Protection measures also reduced the input of faecal pollution, safeguarding the water resource and human health.

description: We present a detailed study of the kinematics of M dwarfs in the CARMENES (Calar Alto high-Resolution search for M dwarfs with Exoearths with Near-infrared and optical Echelle Spectrographs) input catalog. We have selected all M dwarfs with known parallactic distance or a good photometric distance estimation, precise proper motion in the literature or as determined by us, and radial velocity measurements. Using these parameters, we computed the M dwarfs galactic space motions (U, V, W). For the stars with U and V velocity components inside or near the boundaries that determine the young disk population, we have analyzed the possible membership in the classical moving groups and nearby loose associations with ages between 10 and 600 Ma. For the candidate members, we have compiled information available in the literature in order to constrain their membership by applying other age-dating methods.

description: Digital materials are highly used resources in academic libraries and absorb a significant cost in their creation. While digital materials greatly improve access to and usability of information, these materials must be actively maintained and preserved. Recent surveys, however, indicate that many libraries are not implementing adequate digital preservation techniques to insure their investments. This study surveyed American and Canadian institutions regarding their digital preservation processes and attitudes, with a specific focus on the comparison of processes and attitudes in institutions that have participated in a national digitization or digital preservation grant (grant receiving institutions) and non grant receiving institutions. The results suggest that grant receiving institutions are just as likely to implement migration, emulation, or digital archeology for digital image files as non-grant receiving institutions and that migration is the most widely implemented preservation strategy and is perceived as more effective than emulation or digital archeology by ARL institutions.

description: The role of the built environment in influencing demand for public transport is recognised. However little attention has been given to understanding the built environment factors associated with demand for specific modes, like train, tram and bus. This thesis aims to explore the built environment impacts on transit use by mode. A review of prior research and empirical studies in three cities (Melbourne, Amsterdam and Boston) are undertaken to fulfil this aim. Results suggest some of the built environment predictors of transit use are important for all modes, however others appear to give a selective boost to specific modes.

description: Mathematical model of heavy and superheavy nuclei production in intensive pulsed neutron fluxes of explosive process is developed. The pulse character of the process allows dividing it in time into two stages: very short rapid process of multiple neutron captures with higher temperature and very intensive neutron fluxes, and relatively slower process with lower temperature and neutron fluxes. The model was also extended for calculation of the transuranium yields in nuclear explosions takes into account the adiabatic character of the process, the probabilities of delayed fission, and the emission of delayed neutrons. Also the binary starting target isotopes compositions were included. Calculations of heavy transuranium and transfermium nuclei production were made for Mike, Par and Barbel experiments, performed in USA. It is shown that the production of transfermium neutron-rich nuclei and superheavy elements with A ~ 295 is only possible in case of binary mixture of starting isotopes with the significant addition of heavy components, such as long-lived isotopes of curium, or californium.

title: The Lost Cohort: A Phenomenological Study of mainstream officer development within the Royal Air Force
Creators: name: Macpherson, Colin John
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2023

description: This thesis reports on a phenomenological study into the development of mainstream officers within the Royal Air Force (RAF) and explores what training and education opportunities are available to those not selected for executive streaming. The study, through a series of twelve semi-structured interviews, draws on the experiences and beliefs of a cohort of officers who exited directed training and education programmes early in their current rank.

The literature review contends that there is a complex relationship between an organisation’s culture, its talent management philosophy and its training and education strategy. Whilst the organisation’s culture was not the primary focus, the research argues that it has a significant role in how the RAF talent manages its people and selects personnel for training and education. The lived experiences of the research group indicate the existence of a cultural bias and hierarchical imbalance between specialisations which favours certain branches over others. The focus on a philosophy of through-life development of a select group exposes identifiable deficiencies in command, leadership and management learning opportunities for those officers who are not selected for executive streaming. This, the evidence suggests, has created a training and education gap in the development of the intellectual tools and wider general service knowledge necessary to influence strategic decision-making within the air & space and Joint environment.

Although opportunities for elective learning do exist, the research identifies a lack cohesion and investment. This is compounded by staff shortages and increasing workloads resulting in the low take-up of available opportunities. The research exposes the factors which determine career advancement within the RAF and offers a conceptual framework to navigate the complexity of the relationship between the trinity of culture, talent management and training & education. The framework is supported by a portfolio of skills which are considered essential to ensure that personnel are operationally astute and appropriately developed to operate effectively in support of the RAF’s operational deliverables.

Dual-mode stormwater-greywater biofilters: technical performance and aesthetic preferences
Creators: name: BARRON, NATALIE JANE
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2021
Subjects: Water resources engineering

description: Biofilters are a plant-soil system constructed in urban streets to clean stormwater. Unfortunately, biofilters struggle to clean stormwater following long periods of no rain. Communities have also reported that they think biofilters are ugly. To address these issues, this thesis explored dual-mode biofilters. A dual-mode biofilter could clean stormwater in wet periods and greywater in dry periods. The choice of plant species was found to be important for a successful dual-mode biofilter design. Also, providing people information on biofilters would likely help improve community perceptions of them.

A framework and pragmatic strategies for transit priority implementation
Creators: name: REYNOLDS, JULIAN JAMES
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2020
Subjects: Transport engineering

description: Bus lanes, traffic signals for trams, and many other measures can be used to prioritise on-road public transport services. Because buses and trams can carry people very efficiently there is often a strong case for advantaging them over other traffic, particular in congested urban areas. However, converting traffic lanes, removing on-street parking and other changes can mean that transit priority measures that are appropriate from an engineering perspective are often politically, institutionally or publicly unpopular. This research examines public transport priority through the lenses of legitimacy theory and public policy analysis, and develops pragmatic strategies for implementation in car-centric cities.

description: This paper presents a method to generate valid high order meshes with optimized geometrical accuracy. The high order meshing procedure starts with a linear mesh, that is subsequently curved without taking care of the validity of the high order elements. An optimization procedure is then used to both untangle invalid elements and optimize the geometrical accuracy of the mesh. Standard measures of the distance between curves are considered to evaluate the geometrical accuracy in planar two-dimensional meshes, but they prove computationally too costly for optimization purposes. A fast estimate of the geometrical accuracy, based on Taylor expansions of the curves, is introduced. An unconstrained optimization procedure based on this estimate is shown to yield significant improvements in the geometrical accuracy of high order meshes, as measured by the standard Haudorff distance between the geometrical model and the mesh. Several examples illustrate the beneficial impact of this method on CFD solutions, with a particular role of the enhanced mesh boundary smoothness.

description: Groundwater resource is the most reliable source of water for arid and semi-arid regions. Guaranteeing the sustainable management of this resource is one of the most important hydrogeological challenges. Because groundwater modeling is always affected by uncertainty, model-data fusion methods, such as data assimilation, can be used to constrain and quantify the uncertainty in the model results. This thesis presents a method for the assimilation of evapotranspiration data into hydrogeological models.

description: A response of tunnel in soft soil under combined static and seismic loading conditions is influenced by: (a) tunnel geometry (embedment, shape and lining thickness); (b) soil properties (shear wave velocity and shear modulus); (c) soil-structure interaction properties; and (d) input ground motion characteristics (amplitude, frequency and duration). The present study investigates the effects of these parameters on the response of tunnel in soft soil. Additionally, it describes the development of seismic vulnerability assessment methodology and fragility curves for tunnel in soft soil. The outcomes of the study enhance the framework of the designing of tunnels in practical applications.

description: The thesis provides methods and knowledge to integrate fuel estimations from Landsat Earth Observing satellites into operational fire behaviour forecasts. A new spectral index sensitive to fuel load and structure based on the shortwave infrared radiation is proposed and tested in southern Australian environments, the Vegetation Structure Perpendicular Index (VSPI). Then, the index is used to estimate the stage of recovery of previously burnt forests. The recovery stage is lastly used as a proxy for fire danger in fire propagation simulations.

description: We present results obtained from a set of cosmological hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy clusters, aimed at comparing predictions with observational data on the diversity between cool-core (CC) and non-cool-core (NCC) clusters. Our simulations include the effects of stellar and AGN feedback and are based on an improved version of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics code GADGET-3, which ameliorates gas mixing and better captures gas-dynamical instabilities by including a suitable artificial thermal diffusion. In this Letter, we focus our analysis on the entropy profiles, the primary diagnostic we used to classify the degree of cool-coreness of clusters, and on the iron profiles. In keeping with observations, our simulated clusters display a variety of behaviors in entropy profiles: they range from steadily decreasing profiles at small radii, characteristic of cool-core systems, to nearly flat core isentropic profiles, characteristic of non-cool-core systems. Using observational criteria to distinguish between the two classes of objects, we find that they occur in similar proportions in both simulations and in observations. Furthermore, we also find that simulated cool-core clusters have profiles of iron abundance that are steeper than those of NCC clusters, which is also in agreement with observational results. We show that the capability of our simulations to generate a realistic cool-core structure in the cluster population is due to AGN feedback and artificial thermal diffusion: their combined action allows us to naturally distribute the energy extracted from super-massive black holes and to compensate for the radiative losses of low-entropy gas with short cooling time residing in the cluster core.

description: We summarize and extend our work on nonsupersymmetric solutions of a 5d consistent truncation of type IIB supergravity, that is relevant for gauge/gravity duality. The fields in this 5d theory are the five-dimensional metric and a set of scalars. We find solutions of the 5d equations of motion, which represent dS_4 foliations over the fifth (radial) dimension. In each solution at least one scalar has a nontrivial radial profile. These scalars are interpreted as glueballs in the dual gauge theory, living in 4d de Sitter space. We explain why this lays a foundation for building gravity duals of glueball inflation models.

description: The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) is a mission measuring the Earth's gravity field changes. These changes can be related to the total water stored in a hypothetical column in each GRACE pixel. Due to the low spatial and temporal resolution of GRACE data, the practical use is challenging. To overcome this difficulty, different data assimilation techniques have been applied to extract the information in the GRACE observations and the merging with hydrological models. In this PhD, these techniques were combined, improved, and compared to find an efficient DA structure for this purpose.

description: An auto-generated thermoelectric-materials database is presented, containing 22,805 data records, automatically generated from the scientific literature, spanning 10,641 unique extracted chemical names. Each record contains a chemical entity and one of the seminal thermoelectric properties: thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT; thermal conductivity, κ; Seebeck coefficient, S; electrical conductivity, σ; power factor, PF; each linked to their corresponding recorded temperature, T. The database was auto-generated using the automatic sentence-parsing capabilities of the chemistry-aware, natural language processing toolkit, ChemDataExtractor 2.0, adapted for application in the thermoelectric-materials domain, following a rule-based sentence-simplification step. Data were mined from the text of 60,843 scientific papers that were sourced from three scientific publishers: Elsevier, the Royal Society of Chemistry, and Springer. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first automatically-generated database of thermoelectric materials and their properties from existing literature. The database was evaluated to have a precision of 82.25% and has been made publicly available to facilitate the application of data science in the thermoelectric-materials domain, for analysis, design, and prediction.

description: We introduce a stability criterion for quantum statistical ensembles describing macroscopic systems. An ensemble is called "stable" when a small number of local measurements cannot significantly modify the probability distribution of the total energy of the system. We apply this criterion to lattices of spins-1/2, thereby showing that the canonical ensemble is nearly stable, whereas statistical ensembles with much broader energy distributions are not stable. In the context of the foundations of quantum statistical physics, this result justifies the use of statistical ensembles with narrow energy distributions such as canonical or microcanonical ensembles.

description: The influence of the collimating conditions of the incident beam on diffraction patterns produced by grazing scattering of fast atoms off crystal surfaces is studied within a semi-quantum approach, named Surface Initial Value Representation (SIVR) approximation. In this approach we incorporate a realistic description of the incident particle in terms of the collimating parameters, which determine the surface area that is coherently illuminated. The model is applied to He atoms colliding with a LiF(001) surface after passing through a rectangular aperture. As it was experimentally observed [1], SIVR spectra as a function of the azimuthal angle are very sensitive to the width of the collimating slit. We also found that the length of the collimating aperture affects polar angle distributions, introducing additional interference structures for the longer collimating slits.

description: This study was conducted in Khartoum state to evaluate theexpression pattern of Oct4 stem cell marker among Sudanese patients.Many tissues if not all are thought to contain stem cells that areresponsible for regeneration and repair of the tissue after injury.Notably, the so-called cancer stem cells or tumor-initiating cells, havebeen studied in order to understand the mechanisms of carcinogenesisand/or metastasis. However, the nature of cancer stem cells, let alonenormal stem/progenitor cells, particularly those of the thyroid remainsa gap in knowledge Understanding of the mechanism for thyroidregeneration and mode of participation of normal adult thyroidstem/progenitor cells in this process will hopefully yield a morecomplete understanding of the nature of thyroid cancer stem cells,and/or help understand the pathogenesis of other thyroid diseases.Oct4 has been consistently associated with pluripotent or stem likecells, and it is hypothesized that Oct4 is necessary for the maintenanceof pluripotency.
