A DFT study of hydrogen abstraction from light alkanes
Creators: name: Hook, Alexander
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2018

description: Sustainable energy production is one of the biggest challenges of the 21st century. This includes effective utilization of carbon-neutral energy resources as well as clean end-use application that do not emit CO2 and other pollutants. Hydrogen gas can potentially solve the latter problem, as a clean burning fuel with very high thermodynamic energy conversion efficiency in fuel cells. In this work we will be discussing two methods of obtaining hydrogen. The first is as a byproduct of light alkane dehydrogenation where we obtain a high value olefin along with hydrogen gas. The second is in methane steam reforming where hydrogen is the primary product.  Chapter 1 begins by introducing the reader to the current state of the energy industry. Afterwards there is an overview of what density functional theory (DFT) is and how this computational technique can elucidate and complement laboratory experiments. It will also contain the general parameters and methodology of the VASP software package that runs the DFT calculations.  Chapter 2 will introduce the reader to light alkane dehydrogenation over platinum. Then this chapter goes into detail about the current industry standard alloy, PtSn, and how it dehydrogenates light alkanes. After the dehydrogenation process, the olefin may be further dehydrogenated into coke precursors which are often thought of as atomic carbon. This work looks into this claim by continuing the dehydrogenation down to atomic carbon and testing its thermodynamic and kinetic possibilities.  Chapter 3 will follow up with light alkane dehydrogenation over various platinum alloys. This works consists of a comprehensive comparison of alloys of platinum with transition and post-transition metals. Trends in reactivity will be used to predict optimum alloy compositions.  Chapter 4 will introduce a common method of removing carbon monoxide while producing hydrogen gas, the water gas shift (WGS) reaction. The various WGS kinetic pathways over TiO2 have been mapped out including all thermodynamic reaction energies. These energies indicate the most probable pathways for WGS over anatase TiO2. The role of water in the elementary reaction steps is of special interest.  Chapter 5 expands the scope of TiO2 surface reactions to include methane steam reforming coupled with the WGS reaction. The role of water in methane activation is examined, and the predicted reaction pathways are explored in the presence of adsorbed water molecules. The potential energy surfaces for steam reforming have been investigated along with both binding energies and activation energies.
Design to connect

description: Connection, the joining of two things, often refers to an emotional state. Communities that connect with one another and their landscape become functional and strong, enabling them to act together to achieve common goals. This paper explores how landscape design can reinforce this type of connectivity in the Ironbound neighborhood of Newark, NJ. While the neighborhood is home to a vibrant community, its physical landscape is averse to pedestrian use and occupation. Additionally, dense development leaves few opportunities for design intervention. A survey of the neighborhood found opportunities to improve the landscape in streets and underutilized sites throughout the neighborhood. This project’s design proposals bind select sites and streets into themed networks designed specifically to enhance the activities already occurring in some locations or to allow the community to define how other spaces are used. The result is a system that weaves the neighborhood together, creating greater connectivity and legibility within the Ironbound.

Von dieser nur aus dem Südbalkan und Kleinasien bekannten Art, die J. Schmidt, W. Linsenmaier und M. Schwarz in den 60iger Jahren an etlichen Orten auf der Peloponnes und bei Korinth sogar in Anzahl gefunden haben, habe ich während meiner ausgedehnten Sammelreisen nur ein einziges gefangen. Ob dies an einem Rückgang der Art liegt oder andere Gründe hat, beispielsweise andere Sammelmethoden, bleibt vorerst offen. Sämtliche bisherigen Funde stammen aus tiefen Lagen; der höchste Fundort ist Zachlorou (ca. 650m) in der Vouraikos-Schlucht. Fundmeldungen aus Zentral- und Nordgriechenland gibt es bisher offenbar nicht.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the pedagogical practices associated with the implementation of videogame design activities in the classroom setting as a means of promoting students’ 21st century skill development. In particular, it considered the role played by pedagogical expertise in teaching game design and provides an introspective look at the pedagogical challenges faced by instructors within the videogame design classroom. These goals were met by exploring one teacher’s pedagogical scaffolds of student learning specific to game design by investigating the relationships among the teacher’s pedagogical practices that support student learning.    This qualitative study approached the question of how an instructor scaffolds student learning of game design principles and concepts in terms of both lesson planning and in-class practices. These questions were addressed through the case study of an experienced videogame design instructor at a middle school in north-central New Jersey. Data collected include interview data, comprised of approximately three one-hour audio semi-structured interviews with the participant; textual artifacts such as lesson plans, classroom materials, and reflective blog posts; and more than twenty field-based observations with accompanying field notes. The results of this study contribute to a better understanding of the ways in which teachers can effectively implement videogame design and development projects in their classroom settings. Such an understanding will in turn help other educators to identify, plan for and support student learning through the videogame design process.

description: Es wird mit architektonischen und finanziellen Argumenten für den Wiederaufbau des Neustrelitzer Barockschlosses ohne den neobarocken Anbau und gegen den Wiederaufbau allein des Schlossturmes plädiert. Es wird erläutert, warum es nicht sinnvoll ist, die Charta von Venedig so zu interpretieren, dass der historisierende Wiederaufbau der gesamten Schlossanlage im Zustand vor der Zerstörung notwendig sei. Mein Vorschlag: Zuschauertribüne für die Schlossgartenfestspiele hinter den Fassaden des Barockschlosses nach dem Entwurf von Christian Peters und nach seiner Maxime: Hier stand das Schloss und nicht, hier steht das Schloss!
description: Auf den seit 2018 regelmäßig durchgeführten Schlossbergkonferenzen in Neustrelitz wird über die Schließung der Lücke im Schlossbergareal diskutiert (vgl. Datei Schlossbergkonferenz-29-Jan-2024-Programm.pdf). Im Strelitzius-Blog gibt es viele Beiträge zum Thema (vgl. Datei Linkliste-Schlossberg-Januar-2024.pdf). Dem Konferenzbeitrag voraus ging ein Dialog der CDU-Fraktion mit dem Autor zur Frage des Schlossturms (vgl. Datei CDU-Fraktion-Havemann-Dialog-zum-Schlossturm.pdf). Neben dem Text des Vortrags (Datei: Barockschloss-oder-Schlossturm-Havemann-Vortrag-Schlossbergkonferenz-Neustrelitz-Jan-2024.pdf) ist auch die gezeigte Präsentation verfügbar (Havemann-Praesentation-Schlossbergkonferenz-2024-Barockschloss-oder-Schlossturm.pdf).
description: Erratum (29. Januar 2024)

Im Text und in der Präsentation wird irrtümlich der 29. Januar 2018 als der Tag angenommen, an dem im Schloss die erste demokratische Landesverfassung nach der Revolution von 1918 verabschiedet wurde. Das wäre aber vor der Revolution im November gewesen. Das richtige Jahr ist 1919. 
description: Fazit der Diskussion auf der Tagung am 29. Januar 2024

Das gewichtigste Argument der Schlossturmbefürworter war, es müsse endlich was passieren, zumal sich die zugesagten Fördergelder von Bund und Land auch wieder verflüchtigen könnten. Ich verstehe die Ungeduld nach so langer Diskussion, erwiderte jedoch: Ungeduld ist nie ein guter Ratgeber.

Measuring and modeling the influence of relative humidity, temperature, and buffer type on the survival and growth of Enterobacter aerogenes
Creators: name: Igo, Matthew

Year: 2018

description: Survival of bacteria on surfaces is an important part in understanding cross-contamination of food. The effects of temperature and relative humidity appear to play important roles in understanding how bacteria survive on surfaces. Surface type and inoculum matrix also appear to influence bacterial survival. This study examines how relative humidity, temperature, and inoculum matrix effected the survival of non-pathogenic Enterobacter aerogenes on common surfaces stainless steel, PVC, and ceramic tile. While surface type seemed to have little effect on survival, temperature showed a clear effect. E. aerogenes survived better at 7°C at 15 and 50% relative humidity on all surfaces. Inoculum matrix composition influenced survival and even allowed growth under some high RH conditions. Cells suspended in distilled water experienced a larger decrease in concentration immediately after inoculation on the surface vs. 0.1% peptone or 1% PBS. Cells suspended in 1% PBS showed a sharper decline in survival after 120 hours compared to 0.1% peptone both 15 and 50% relative humidity but cells in both matrices had similar tailing up to 3 weeks. Cells suspended in 0.1% peptone showed greatest growth and had the highest population density (~8 log CFU/ml) when the organism was inoculated into 10 mL of peptone. Cells suspended in PBS or distilled water showed ~2 log CFU/ml increase in concentration. When cells in 0.1% peptone were inoculated onto a stainless steel coupon and placed at 100% RH, concentration increased to ~7 log CFU/coupon after a lag time of ~24 hours while cells in 1% PBS increased to ~5 log CFU/coupon followed by a decline over 3 weeks. DMFit and GinaFit software could model inactivation on surfaces at all conditions other than 100% RH at 21°C.

Diese Art, die S. steckianus sehr ähnlich ist und auch ein weitgehend übereinstimmendes Verbreitungsgebiet besitzt (GUSENLEITNER 2000a), ist auf der Peloponnes offenbar in allen Höhenstufen zu finden, scheint jedoch in tiefen Lagen häufiger zu sein als im Bergland. Mein höchster Fundort liegt im Lykaion-Gebirge (ca. 1400m), jedoch belegen ältere Funde (s.u.) von und im Chelmos-Gebirge, dass die Art auch in der Mattenregion der Hochgebirge vorkommt, also syntop mit S. steckianus.
Bis zur Korrektur durch VAN DER VECHT (1971) wurde für S. bluethgeni irrtümlich der Name S. dentisquama (THOMSON 1870) verwendet (siehe GUSENLEITNER 1981).

Folgende weitere Stenoydnerus -Arten könnten auf der Peloponnes vorkommen, doch ist es eher unwahrscheinlich, dass ihr Verbreitungsgebiet so weit nach Süden reicht: S. xanthomelas (HERRICH- SCHAEFFER 1839), S. clypeopictus (KOSTYLEV 1940) und S. orenburgensis (ANDRÉ 1884). Ihre südlichsten Fundorte auf dem Ostbalkan liegen in Bulgarien oder in Albanien (GUSENLEITNER 1981, 2000a).
Die ersteren beiden Arten gehören zusammen mit S. chevrieranus in die xanthomelas - Gruppe, die durch eine grobe, wabenartige Skulptur auf der Wölbung des 1. Tergits auszeichnet ist (siehe GUSENLEITNER 1981). Von S. chevrieranus unterscheiden sie sich vor allem durch ihr flach konvexes 2. Sternit, das vorne viel schwächer zur Basalfurche gebogen ist (Abb. 3). S. clypeopictus besitzt zudem abgerundete Schultern.
S. orenburgensis ähnelt S. punctifrons, unterscheidet sich aber durch eine viel kürzere Behaarung auf dem Vorderkörper und ist mit nur 6-8 mm Körperlänge deutlich kleiner. Die Schultern sind abgerundet, das Propodeum überragt wie bei S. bluethgeni nach hinten das Postscutellum um dessen Länge und die Fühlergeissel ist beim unterseits auf ganzer Länge orange.

Adversarial peace

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2018

description: Rivalry has been an essential element of the human story from the inception of life to the current interconnected globalized world. The central aim of this dissertation is to observe the persistence of adversarial relations between rivals with nuclear weapons. The central questions posed in this study are: why do nuclear rivalries persist, despite incentives to cooperate and opportunities to resolve the conflict? Furthermore, what explains the variation in the interactions between nuclear rivals? And, under what conditions do nuclear rivals cooperate with one another?  This research project tackles these questions by focusing on the role of nuclear weapons in rivalry interaction and termination. To understand rivalries with nuclear weapons, I employ the concept of “adversarial peace” and highlight the persistence and cyclical pattern within nuclear rivalries. The core of the argument rests on the mutual vulnerability dilemma where both sides feel a profound psychological susceptibility to mutual annihilation and perceive that the other controls what the state values the most. In this way, strategic rivalries with nuclear weapons transition into a state of perpetual adversity. To test this argument, I employ a historical approach with a focus on the individual, regional and system level factors through in-depth historical case studies. My main cases are the US-USSR, and US-Russia and the India-Pakistan, and a mini-case study of Brazil and Argentina where the nuclear question was resolved and a protracted rivalry terminated.

Analyzing Consumer Loan Contracts in African Countries: Trends and Patterns
Creators: name: Jules KOUNOUWEWA

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Consumer loan contracts in African countries are essential for understanding the dynamics of personal finance and economic development on the continent. This article analyzes trends and patterns in consumer loan contracts across several African nations, examining aspects such as loan terms, interest rates, fees, and borrower demographics. The study utilizes a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from loan contracts with qualitative insights from interviews with financial experts and borrowers. Key findings reveal significant variability in contract terms and interest rates, influenced by regional economic conditions and regulatory environments. The analysis highlights the need for improved regulatory frameworks to enhance contract transparency and borrower protection. Furthermore, it underscores the role of technology and alternative financing models in expanding access to credit and fostering financial inclusion. The research provides actionable recommendations for policymakers and financial institutions to address disparities and improve the consumer lending landscape in Africa.
