description: The purpose of this research is to identify and rank the effective factors in the selection of a university for graduate level education from the viewpoint of students. Method: The literature on university rankings was first examined and 14 general factors were extracted with related indicators. Then, interviews were conducted with 15 students. Furthermore, a set of the effective factors was gathered by considering the literature and student views. In the next step, to confirm these factors and indicators, 40 questionnaires were filled by students. Then, the results were verfied by T-test. Confirmed indicators (16 indicators) were re-classified and distributed in the form of a questionnaire with linguistic expresions among 20 other students. Then, using the data of this questionnaire and implementation of the fuzzy TOPSIS approach, the ranking of the effective factors in the selection of a university for a master's degree was obtained. Finally, the status of factors obtained from the previous steps were presented. Result: The results of the research show that in the proposed framework, the University Reputation factor is the most important factor from the students’ point of view. This factor includes the following indicators: public universities, university location, the age of the univeristy and graduates attracted to the work environment after graduation.

description: Il punto di vista sociologico deve partecipare al dibattito interdisciplinare che ha interessato la disamina dei mutamenti organizzativi nelle organizzazioni penitenziarie, come istituzioni rappresentative del Terzo Settore. L’articolo intende prendere in analisi la dimensione strutturale e culturale dell’organizzazione detentiva, rilevando nel Dirigente Penitenziario un ruolo chiave in grado di coniugare le esigenze organizzative con quelle individuali in un’ottica di ‘coopetition’.

The sociological point of view must participate in the interdisciplinary debate concerned with the examination of organizational changes in penitentiary organizations, considered as representative institutions of the Third Sector. The article aims to analyse both the structural and cultural dimensions of the prison organization, noting in the Penitentiary Manager a key role able to combine organizational and individual needs under the ‘coopetition’ point of view.

description: The Micro DE project was a scoping and feasibility study to identify opportunities for micro-generation storage and control technology development at an individual dwelling level in the UK.The study investigated the potential for reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions through Distributed Energy (DE) technologies. This was achieved through the development of a segmented model of the UK housing stock supplemented with detailed, real-time supply and demand energy-usage gathered from field trials of micro distributed generation and storage technology in conjunction with building control systems.The outputs of this project now feed into the Smart Systems and Heat programme.

This deliverable is number 2 of 7 in Work Package 3. It summarises the findings of two rounds of interviews carried out on participants of the 18 home field trial carried out as part of WorkPackage 2. First round interviews were carried out prior to the 2010/11 heating season, second round interviews after the heating season.The findings from these interview have been included in report D3.7 : Final project report together with outputs from other deliverables within Work Package 3

This report is one of seven reports presenting the findings and recommendations from the ETI Micro Distributed Energy project, a scoping and feasibility study to determine the opportunity for Distributed Energy (DE) technology development.The report deals specifically with the potential contribution of building Energy Services Management (ESM) systems in the residential setting.

The report outlines the findings from a series of interviews conducted with the occupants of eighteen field trial homes. Each field trial home had at least one of the following technologies installed:Photovoltaic (PV) panels,Solar thermal Hot Water (STHW) systems,Biomass boilers,Air Source Heat Pumps or Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP).The findings indicate that the key investment drivers for early adopters of Micro DE technologies were:saving money on energy bills,reducing their carbon footprint and impact on climate change,reducing their reliance on oil and gas (concerns over rising prices and future supplies).The findings suggest that financial incentives such as feed in tariffs and the Green Deal are likely to be important future drivers. Financial incentives are likely to make PV panels in particular more attractive to consumers.

description: Due to the dynamic environment of today and the increasing number of websites, their assessment and evaluation has also arisen. On the other hand, Website users do not like static pages and are looking for ones that can transfer more information in less time. In this regard, the purpose of the present study is to evaluate the criteria for evaluating websites with emphasis on the use of infographic. The model presented in this study was validated using a sample of 311 users from some of the most popular Iranian websites and partial least squares method (PLS). The findings of the fitted structural equations showed that: 1) infographic is one of the components of website evaluation that has a positive and significant effect on website quality, user satisfaction from website and its desire to return to website; 2) the quality of the website has a positive effect on the user’s satisfaction and their eagerness to get back to the website; 3) satisfaction of the users from the website motivates them to get back to the website; 4) satisfaction of the users from the website and their eagerness to get back to the website has a positive effect on the commitment and loyalty of users to the website.

description: We consider thermodynamics of the van der Waals fluid of quantum systems. We derive general relations of thermodynamic functions and parameters of any ideal gas and the corresponding van der Waals fluid. This provides unambiguous generalization of the classical van der Waals theory to quantum statistical systems. As an example, we apply the van der Waals fluid with fermi statistics to characterize the liquid-gas critical point in nuclear matter. We also introduce the Bose-Einstein condensation in the relativistic van der Waals boson gas, and argue, that it exhibits two-phase structure separated in space.

This was achieved through the development of a segmented model of the UK housing stock supplemented with detailed, real-time supply and demand energy-usage gathered from field trials of micro distributed generation and storage technology in conjunction with building control systems.The outputs of this project now feed into the Smart Systems and Heat programme.

The main objective of the trial is the production of a model that defines the potential for the use of Micro Distributed Energy applications within the UK domestic building stock in 2030 foruse by the ETI. This work will be based around a number of scenarios (still to be defined), with a model created from a number of existing models which the partners have already created or to which they have approved access.

Alongside the model the project will install monitoring equipment into 20 homes that have existing Micro Distributed Energy systems in place in order to fill gaps in technical understanding and user behaviour.The precise technologies for the homes is the subject of a separate document – hence this document will detail the monitoring points for all DE technology candidates which are still candidates for selection.

In selection of the trial homes it is intended to provide a mix of levels of performance of the technologies to provide an insight into which technologies perform well under what conditions thus providing criteria for the modelling of the likely performance of technologies in the field rather than in a lab environment.

Approximately half way into the monitoring period (or earlier if issues identified)There will be a number of interventions made to a small number of the homes (approximately 6), such as improved control systems, additional technologies, or correction of faults that may also need to be monitored.The additional monitoring requirements are not covered in this document but will be documented at the appropriate time.

 This deliverable is number 8 of 9 in Work Package 1. It describes the monitoring system and methodology to be used in the field trial of micro-generation systems in the project.The field trial will provide data to the consortium in order to fill gaps in technical understanding and user behaviour.

description: We study thermoelectric transport through a coherent molecular conductor connected to two electron and two phonon baths using the nonequilibrium Green's function method. We focus on the mutual drag between electron and phonon transport as a result of `momentum' transfer, which happens only when there are at least two phonon degrees of freedom. After deriving expressions for the linear drag coefficients, obeying the Onsager relation, we further investigate their effect on nonequilibrium transport. We show that the drag effect is closely related to two other phenomena: (1) adiabatic charge pumping through a coherent conductor; (2) the current-induced nonconservative and effective magnetic forces on phonons.

description: Consistent and reliable receiver antenna calibration sets are an essential prerequisite for precise geodetic reference frames. In the context of the igs3-reprocessing campaign and the realisation of a new international terrestrial reference frame (ITRF20) using multi-GNSS, receiver antenna phase centre correction (PCC) sets play a key role. However, the consistency between different PCC realisations and the exchange of PCCs are today still a challenging task. In this contribution, we present results of our developed strategy for the characterisation of receiver antenna calibration sets. We emphasise the need of consistency between individual PCCs resulting from different calibration strategies and various realisations (igs14, igs20 and igsR3_2077). We discuss the need of defining the reception point for code and carrier phase observation, i.e. should PCC also be applied to code? Based on precise point positioning (PPP) we will show that the consistency of modelling both observation types in PPP is required and the differences are not only related to the residuals but also to the receiver clock estimates. We analyse this challenge at selected EUREF Permanent Network (EPN) sites, examining the receiver antenna pattern and the geographical location, as this also has a crucial role. The consistency of the reference point between code and carrier phase observations has additional effects on the parameters, as they are linked by the ionosphere free linear-combination. Depending on the type of receiver antenna, effects on the receiver clock estimates and ambiguities of up to 8 mm and systematic effects on PPP code post-fit residuals have been found.

Key findings are:DE equipment, as installed, does not reach the full potential of its laboratory promise.Buildings Energy Management Systems (BEMS) are required to maximisethe efficiency of both existing heating systems (e.g. gas boilers) together with complex,multiple technology Micro DE technologies installed within the homeThe reasons for underperformance of Micro DE equipment centred in two areas:oThe technologies themselves are sensitive to incorrect design andinstallation.oThe technologies are sensitive to the manner in which they are operated.Traditional domestic heating and hot water technologies are well-understoodby homeowners and it has been wrongly assumed that the same applies to Micro DE technologies.Energy storage is essential to maximise use of generated energy within the home and reduce use of supplemental supplies (of heat or electricity) or export (of electricity).Please note this report was produced in 2010/2011 and its contents may be out of date.

description: A novel interferometric method - SLIVER (Super Localization by Image inVERsion interferometry) - is proposed for estimating the separation of two incoherent point sources with a mean squared error that does not deteriorate as the sources are brought closer. The essential component of the interferometer is an image inversion device that inverts the field in the transverse plane about the optical axis, assumed to pass through the centroid of the sources. The performance of the device is analyzed using the Cramér-Rao bound applied to the statistics of spatially-unresolved photon counting using photon number-resolving and on-off detectors. The analysis is supported by Monte-Carlo simulations of the maximum likelihood estimator for the source separation, demonstrating the superlocalization effect for separations well below that set by the Rayleigh criterion. Simulations indicating the robustness of SLIVER to mismatch between the optical axis and the centroid are also presented. The results are valid for any imaging system with a circularly symmetric point-spread function.

description: `Direct collapse black holes' (DCBHs) provide possible seeds for supermassive black holes that exist at redshifts as high as z~7. We study Lyman Alpha (Lya) radiative transfer through simplified representations of the DCBH-scenario. We find that gravitational heating of the collapsing cloud gives rise to a Lya cooling luminosity of up to ~ 1e38(M_gas/1e6 Msun)^2 erg/s. The Lya production rate can be significantly larger during the final stages of collapse, but collisional deexcitation efficiently suppresses the emerging Lya flux. Photoionization by a central source boosts the Lya luminosity to L~1e43(M_BH/1e6 M_sun) erg/s during specific evolutionary stages of the cloud, where M_BH denotes the mass of the black hole powering this source. We predict that the width and velocity off-set of the Lya spectral line range from a few tens to few thousands km/s, depending sensitively on the evolutionary state of the cloud. We also compare our predictions to observations of CR7 (Sobral et al. 2015), a luminous Lya emitter at z~7, which is potentially associated with a DCBH. If CR7 is powered by a black hole, then its Lya flux alone requires that M_BH> 1e7 M_sun, which exceeds the mass of DCBHs when they first form. The observed width of the Lya spectrum favors the presence of only a low column density of hydrogen, log [N_HI/cm^-2]~19-20. The shape of the Lya spectrum indicates that this gas is outflowing. These requirements imply that if CR7 harbors a DCBH, then the physical conditions that enabled its formation have been mostly erased, which is in agreement with theoretical expectations.

description: The course of non-thermal electron ejection in relativistic unmagnetized electron-ion shocks is investigated by performing self-consistent particle-in-cell simulations. The shocks are excited through the injection of relativistic jet into ambient plasma, leading to two distinct shocks (named as the trailing shock and leading shock) and a contact discontinuity. The Weibel-like instabilities heat the electrons up to approximately half of ion kinetic energy. The double layers formed in the trailing and leading edges then accelerated the electrons by the ion kinetic energy. The electron distribution function in the leading edge shows a clear non-thermal power-law tail which contains $\sim1\%$ of electrons and $\sim8\%$ of electron energy. Its power-law index is -2.6. The acceleration efficiency is $\sim23\%$ by number and $\sim50\%$ by energy and the power-law index is -1.8 for electron distribution function in the trailing edge. The effect of the dimensionality is examined by comparing results of 3D simulation with 2D ones. It exhibits that the electron acceleration is more efficient in 2D.

description: We investigate the role of magnetic helicity in promoting cyclic magnetic activity in a global, 3D, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of a convective dynamo. This simulation is characterized by coherent bands of toroidal field that exist within the convection zone, with opposite polarities in the northern and southern hemispheres. Throughout most of the cycle, the magnetic helicity in these bands is negative in the northern hemisphere and positive in the southern hemisphere. However, during the declining phase of each cycle, this hemispheric rule reverses. We attribute this to a global restructuring of the magnetic topology that is induced by the interaction of the bands across the equator. This band interaction appears to be ultimately responsible for, or at least associated with, the decay and subsequent reversal of both the toroidal bands and the polar fields. We briefly discuss the implications of these results within the context of solar observations, which also show some potential evidence for toroidal band interactions and helicity reversals.

description: The Micro DE project was a scoping and feasibility study to identify opportunities for micro-generation storage and control technology development at an individual dwelling level in the UK.The study investigated the potential for reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions through Distributed Energy (DE) technologies. This was achieved through the development of a segmented model of the UK housing stock supplemented with detailed, real-time supply and demand energy-usage gathered from field trials of micro distributed generation and storage technology in conjunction with building control systems.The outputs of this project now feed into the Smart Systems and Heat programme.

This deliverable is an additional output from the Micro-DE project, commissioned to review the current performance capabilities of different heat meters available in the UK. Four different technologies of heat meter were trialled at 8 different sites on heating systems including traditional boilers, heat pumps, solar thermal systems and an electric water heater.The report highlights the importance of correct installation techniques on accuracy of readings.The report also states that significant errors in accuracy are likely when measuring domestic hot water consumption due to rapidly changing flow rates, errors of up to 20% between meters were recorded

description: Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is gaining popularity for use in building mid-rise buildings. The variations in grain patterns and growth rings in the wood laminates cause differential shrinking and swelling behavior in CLT, which could result in delamination at the glue line. Additionally, the shear stress acting on the radial-tangential plane perpendicular to grain or rolling shear stress often results in premature failure. Another challenge in mass timber construction using CLT is to protect it from exposure to a high moisture environment and ensure long-term durability. To mitigate these issues, this study proposes to utilize thermally modified wood strands in a commercial autoclave to manufacture cross-laminated strand veneer lumber (CLSVL) that is durable and dimensionally stable. In the first part of the study, wood strands were hydrothermally treated in a closed inert environment with nitrogen gas at various temperatures (165°C, 170°C, and 180°C) and pressures (0.8 MPa and 1.4 MPa) with a constant dwelling time of 120 minutes. It was found that the lower pressure of 0.8 MPa decreased the boiling point of water in a high-temperature environment, which helped to increase the rate of extraction of hemicellulose from the wood resulting in a 35% reduction in equilibrium moisture content (EMC). Similarly, a 38% reduction in thickness swelling at 165°C & 0.8 MPa was obtained for thermally modified (TM) veneers while maintaining mechanical properties, implying a significant improvement in dimensional stability.
description: In the second part of the study, CLSVL manufactured from thermally modified strands (165°C and 0.8MPa for 120 minutes) were evaluated for mechanical and physical properties. No significant differences were observed for effective bending stiffness, shear stiffness, bending resistance, and shear resistance of control and thermally modified (TM) panels. The shear analogy model (SAM) showed good predictions of mechanical properties. Better dimensional stability with a 25% reduction in water absorption and a 59% reduction in thickness swell was observed for TM-CLSVL panels without rolling shear failure for both flexural and shear specimens.

description: Context: In the last years, there have been many studies on the omnipresence and structures of filaments in star-forming regions, as well as their role in the process of star formation. Those filaments are normally identified as elongated fibres across the plane of the sky. But how would we detect filaments that are inclined? Aims: We aim to learn more about whether, and how, total column density or dust temperature change with respect to the line of sight. Such variations would enable observers to use dust observations to identify and study filaments at any inclination and gain more insight on the distribution and orientations of filaments within the Galactic plane. Methods: As a first step, we perform numerical calculations on simple cylindrical models to evaluate the influence of filament geometry on the average flux density. After that, we apply our three-dimensional Monte Carlo dust radiative transfer code on two models of star-forming regions and derive maps of effective total column density and dust temperature at different viewing angles. Results: We see only slight changes of average flux density for all cylinders we study. For our more complex models, we find that the effective dust temperature is not sensitive to viewing angle, while the total column density is strongly influenced, with differences exceeding an order of magnitude. The variations are not injective with the viewing angle and depend on the structure of the object. Conclusions: We conclude that there is no single quantity in our analysis that can uniquely trace the inclination and three-dimensional structure of a filament based on dust observations alone. However, observing wide variations in total column density at a given effective dust temperature is indicative of inclined filaments.

description: Quantum communication without a shared reference frame or the construction of a relational quantum theory requires the notion of a quantum reference frame. We analyze aspects of quantum reference frames associated with non-compact groups, specifically the group of spatial translations and Galilean boosts. We begin by demonstrating how the usually employed group average, used to dispense of the notion of an external reference frame, leads to unphysical states when applied to reference frames associated with non-compact groups. However, we show that this average does lead naturally to a reduced state on the relative degrees of freedom of a system, which was previously considered by Angelo et al. [1]. We then study in detail the informational properties of this reduced state for systems of two and three particles in Gaussian states.

description: Background: Lung cancer was known as primary cancers and the survival rate of cancer is about 15%. Early detection of lung cancer is the leading factor in survival rate. All symptoms (features) of lung cancer do not appear until the cancer spreads to other areas. It needs an accurate early detection of lung cancer, for increasing the survival rate. For accurate detection, it need characterizes efficient features and delete redundancy features among all features. Feature selection is the problem of selecting informative features among all features. Materials and Methods: Lung cancer database consist of 32 patient records with 57 features. This database collected by Hong and Youngand indexed in the University of California Irvine repository. Experimental contents include the extracted from the clinical data and X-ray data, etc. The data described 3 types of pathological lung cancers and all features are taking an integer value 0-3. In our study, new method is proposed for identify efficient features of lung cancer. It is based on Hyper-Heuristic. Results: We obtained an accuracy of 80.63% using reduced 11 feature set. The proposed method compare to the accuracy of 5 machine learning feature selections. The accuracy of these 5 methods are 60.94, 57.81, 68.75, 60.94 and 68.75. Conclusions: The proposed method has better performance with the highest level of accuracy. Therefore, the proposed model is recommended for identifying an efficient symptom of Disease. These finding are very important in health research, particularly in allocation of medical resources for patients who predicted as high-risks
