description: Indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells have long radiative lifetimes and form a cold quasi-two-dimensional population suitable for studying collective quantum effects. Here we report the observation of the exciton Mott transition from an insulating (excitons) to a conducting (ionized electron-hole pairs) phase, which occurs gradually as a function of carrier density and temperature. The transition is inferred from spectral and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements around a carrier density of $2\times10^{10} \mathrm{cm}^{-2}$ and temperatures of $12-16 \mathrm{K}$. An externally applied electric field is employed to tune the dynamics of the transition via the quantum-confined Stark effect. Our results provide evidence of a gradual nature of the exciton Mott transition.

Microsphere formation in droplets using antisolvent vapour precipitation technique

description: In previous studies, the antisolvent vapour precipitation method has been proven to produce uniformly sized lactose microspheres (1.0 µm) from a single droplet (1.2 mm diameter) at atmospheric pressure. These types of particles have potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry, especially due to their high dissolution rate. This project looked into the possibility of using antisolvent vapour precipitation to produce microspheres from finely atomised droplets. Microspheres in the sub-micron scale (0.4 μm diameter) have been produced by this method, much smaller than those obtained from the single droplet method (1.0 μm diameter). The microsphere formation only occurred above a certain threshold of antisolvent concentration. Below this threshold, different structures were formed e.g.: porous, bicontinuous, ridges or coagulated structures. On the other hand, the formation of these particles were not affected by exposure time to ethanol vapour (up to 60 s) or drying temperature (up to 190oC). A two-phase system (caused by self-emulsification of the components in the droplets) was theorised as the mechanism responsible for the formation of the porous and bicontinuous structure., This theory was further reinforced as proven by the successful microsphere formation at higher antisolvent vapour concentrations, which was caused by a shrinkage phenomenon of the solute containing phase in the droplet. In the second part of this study, the effect of temperature variation during precipitation on particle formation was studied. Different temperature profiles were simulated using sets of Peltier modules to control direction of heat flow in or out of the chamber. No trend could be discerned from the different temperature profiles studied; microspheres appeared to form regardless of how fast the temperature increased or decreased over time. Nevertheless, an increase in the overall temperature reduced the concentration of antisolvent threshold required to precipitate microspheres from the atomised droplets. This discovery could be linked to the increased rate of evaporation in the droplet at higher temperatures; this led to an increased rate of antisolvent concentration rise in the droplets, which could indicate that this rate could be the determining factor in the type of particle structure formed. The results obtained from this study would be useful in determining the optimal parameters to produce microspheres using this approach in larger scale applications e.g. spray drying. Microspheres were successfully precipitated from smaller atomised droplets with a much smaller time scale, which would be advantageous for steady state processes.

description: We show that the Looijenga--Lunts--Verbitsky Lie algebra acting on the cohomology of a hyperkähler variety is a derived invariant, and obtain from this a number of consequences for the action on cohomology of derived equivalences between hyperkähler varieties. This includes a proof that derived equivalent hyperkähler varieties have isomorphic $\mathbf{Q}$-Hodge structures, the construction of a rational `Mukai lattice' functorial for derived equivalences, and the computation (up to index 2) of the image of the group of auto-equivalences on the cohomology of certain Hilbert squares of K3 surfaces.

description: We have revisited the valence band electronic structure of NiO by means of hard x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (HAXPES) together with theoretical calculations using both the GW method and the local density approximation + dynamical mean-field theory (LDA+DMFT) approaches. The effective impurity problem in DMFT is solved through the exact diagonalization (ED) method. We show that the LDA+DMFT method alone cannot explain all the observed structures in the HAXPES spectra. GW corrections are required for the O bands and Ni-s and p derived states to properly position their binding energies. Our results establish that a combination of the GW and DMFT methods is necessary for correctly describing the electronic structure of NiO in a proper ab-initio framework. We also demonstrate that the inclusion of photoionization cross section is crucial to interpret the HAXPES spectra of NiO.We argue that our conclusions are general and that the here suggested approach is appropriate for any complex transition metal oxide.

description: Historical fragmentation in spectrum access models accentuates the need for novel concepts that allow for efficient sharing of already available but underutilized spectrum. The emerging Licensed Shared Access (LSA) regulatory framework is expected to enable more advanced spectrum sharing between a limited number of users while guaranteeing their much needed interference protection. However, the ultimate benefits of LSA may in practice be constrained by space-time availability of the LSA bands. Hence, more dynamic LSA spectrum management is required to leverage such real-time variability and sustain reliability when e.g., the original spectrum user suddenly revokes the previously granted frequency bands as they are required again. In this article, we maintain the vision of highly dynamic LSA architecture and rigorously study its future potential: from reviewing market opportunities and discussing available technology implementations to conducting performance evaluation of LSA dynamics and outlining the standardization landscape. Our investigations are based on a comprehensive system-level evaluation framework, which has been specifically designed to assess highly dynamic LSA deployments.

Cyclic direct simple shear test on soft clay at low normal stress: as applicable to offshore pipeline axial walking
Creators: name: Ao, Yang
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Offshore pipelines play a significant role in transporting energy resources such as crude oil and natural gas from offshore platforms to processing facilities. The on-bottom stability of offshore pipelines is influenced significantly by the geotechnical conditions on the seabed. Pipelines undergo a number of thermal cycles during their operational life. At the end of each thermal cycle, some part of the expansion recovers, whereas the irrecoverable expansion accumulates at the free ends and causes the pipe to move axially in one direction, a phenomenon known as axial walking. The test results from the Monash Advanced Pipe testing System (MAPS) imply that pipe axial walking induces relative movements of the soil below the pipe. Since the pipe-soil interaction is extensively influenced by the soil response, the portion of the soil below the pipe which undergoes shearing, characterised as the shear zone, is significant for pipe axial walking assessment and thus needs thorough investigation. The research program reported here investigates the behaviour of soil within the shear zone in pipe axial walking problems. Cyclic direct simple shear tests on soft clay at low normal stress are performed as applicable to axial walking problems. The soil response in the shear zone is characterised as undrained, partially drained, or drained, based on cyclic shearing velocities and the relationship between residual shear resistance and shearing velocity is investigated. Finite element analyses are also conducted to capture the behaviour of soil within the shear zone, utilising an advanced constitutive soil model. Based on the results from both experimental work and numerical analysis, a set of data is established which can be applied in the calibration of large-scale pipe axial walking modelling, and provide guidance on the design practice of offshore pipelines when considering on-bottom stability in axial direction.

PV Module Performance and Reliability

description: 33rd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1822-1824
description: Using halved size cells in photovoltaic modules is an efficient way to reduce cell to module loss and
increase the module power.In this work, we show the difference between halved size and full-size multicrystalline
silicon solar modules from the two aspects. Firstly, we shows the electrical parameters difference between halved cell
and full size PV modules in the same material combination. In the module with 144 halved cells, it is found that the
power increasing of halved cell PV modules is above 9 W compared with full size cell modules. And the Imp of
halved cell PV modules rises to 1.16%, the Isc of the module increases to about 1.32%. Secondly, the parameters
differences are discussed in different shading conditions and different shading cell areas for halved size cells PV
modules. The results show that halved size cells PV modules have better performance under different cell shading
conditions than full size cell module. The Vmax changes to 2/3 of before while one cell is under 90% shading areas
for halved size cells module.

description: В статье анализируется роль экспорта и импорта товаров и услуг в обеспечении воспроизводственных процессов, доходов предприятий и населения, сохранения рабочих мест на протяжении последних лет, когда условия для развития отечественной внешней торговли заметно осложнились. Отмечается, что работа на внешний спрос позволяет предприятиям добывающих отраслей, металлургии, химии, лесопереработки, ОПК и сферы услуг сохранять значительную часть объемов производства. Показывается, что поставки готовой продукции на внешний рынок способствуют более динамичному росту выпуска в обрабатывающих производствах по сравнению с добывающими отраслями и выходу обрабатывающей промышленности на траекторию восстановительного роста. Подчеркивается, что в условиях усиления протекционизма и продолжающегося санкционного давления со стороны западных стран возрастает актуальность государственной поддержки экспорта во всех формах. Указывается, что от весьма ощутимого сокращения импорта пострадали все сектора отечественной экономики, включая сектор домашних хозяйств. Обращается внимание на то, что, несмотря на серьезное ослабление рубля и реализацию проектов импортозамещения, большинство отечественных промышленных предприятий вынуждены сохранять прежнюю долю импорта в закупках оборудования, сырья и материалов по причине отсутствия производства на территории РФ нужного предприятиям оборудования, комплектующих и сырья, а также низкого качества отечественной продукции. По результатам анализа делается вывод, что развитие внешней торговли и степень ее влияния на производство в ближайшем будущем во многом будут зависеть от качества государственной поддержки экспорта на федеральном, региональном и отраслевом уровнях, а также от осуществления мер, направленных на расширение внутреннего спроса и стимулирование закупок за границей промежуточных и инвестиционных товаров.

description: We study the nonlinear responses of relativistic chiral matter to the external fields, such as the electric field ${\bf E}$, gradients of temperature and chemical potential, ${\bf \nabla} T$ and ${\bf \nabla} μ$. Using the kinetic theory with Berry curvature corrections under the relaxation time approximation, we compute the transport coefficients of possible new electric currents that are forbidden in usual chirally symmetric matter, but are allowed in chirally asymmetric matter by parity. In particular, we find a new type of electric current proportional to ${\bf \nabla} μ\times {\bf E}$ due to the interplay between the effects of the Berry curvature and collisions. We also derive an analogue of the "Wiedemann-Franz" law specific for anomalous nonlinear transport in relativistic chiral matter.

description: В статье рассматривается кризис в торгово-экономических отношениях между США и КНР, принявший форму торговой войны между двумя странами. Показано, что в минувшие почти двадцать лет, после вступления Китая в 2001 г. в ВТО, масштабы и значение экономического взаимодействия двух стран постоянно возрастали обе страны стали крупнейшими торговыми партнерами друг для друга. Благодаря экспорту в Китай, в США было создано немало новых рабочих мест в высокотехнологичном секторе экономики, импорт дешевых товаров из Китая повлиял на снижение инфляции в стране. Вместе с тем взгляд на Китай в США как на экономического партнера заметно эволюционировал. КНР стала рассматриваться как главный экономический конкурент и даже угроза экономическим и геополитическим позициям США в мире. Оценки роли Китая в торгово-экономических отношениях с США стали носить преимущественно негативный характер, особенно после прихода в Белый дом президента Д. Трампа. Подчеркиваются такие последствия взаимной торговли, как большой торговый дефицит, потеря рабочих мест в обрабатывающей промышленности США, несправедливые, по мнению американской администрации, торговые практики, применяемые Китаем.В статье систематизированы главные претензии США к Китаю в области внешнеэкономических связей. В их числе обвинения Китая в незаконном присвоении американской интеллектуальной собственности, в требованиях доступа китайских компаний к новейшим американских технологиям, в создании несправедливых преимуществ китайским компаниям партнерам американских компаний, путем государственного субсидирования и льготного кредитования, манипулировании валютным курсом. Автор рассматривает американские санкции против Китая в связи с этими обвинениями и приходит к выводу об их весьма противоречивых последствиях для самих США. Вывод статьи состоит в том, что экономические отношения США и Китая вступили в новый этап, характеризующийся усилением конкуренции и нарастанием противоречий между двумя странами в экономической и научно-технической области.
Hollow fiber membrane preparation with aluminum nitrate post-treatment for hydrogen separation
Creators: name: Yeo, Siek Lin
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Asymmetry polysulfone hollow fibers were extruded using dry/wet phase inversion method. A novel aluminum nitrate post-treatment process was introduced aiming to enhance the hydrogen separation performance of polysulfone hollow fiber. This post-treatment process has successfully improved both permeability and ideal selectivities simultaneously – an ideal performance improvement. The hydrogen permeability of post-treated polysulfone hollow fiber increased more than twice as compared to as-spun polysulfone hollow fiber, while the ideal selectivity doubled. Results from EDX analysis suggested the presence of aluminum cluster on the surface of polysulfone hollow fiber membrane, and ATR-FTIR as well as DSC analyses shows properties modification of polymer. New O – H bonding in IR spectra, presence of dehydration temperature at approximately 136oC in thermogram, and the detection of aluminum element with element distribution images analysis were observed, suggesting that the aluminum cluster could be in the form of hexaaquaaluminum. During the post-treatment process, the ionic charge of highly protonated hexaaquaaluminum ion in salt solution initiated a dipole moment with polymer chain near surface, causing chain rearrangements, resulting in formation of crystallite phase brush-like polymer chain. FESEM analysis has evidenced the shift from nodular skin structure to distinct and thicker dense skin, supporting the rearrangement of polymer chain after post-treatment process. The posttreatment was then applied on different as-spun hollow fibers extruded with different extrusion parameters, where hollow fiber extruded with different inner coagulant compositions and flow rates, air gaps as well as draw ratio. The morphology and gas separation performance of these hollow fibers were studied and results showed that hollow fiber extruded using inner coagulant with moderate non-solvent strength at low flow rate, extruded through a moderate air gap length with low draw ratio has high hydrogen separation performance – positioned above the Robeson plot H2/N2 permeability/selectivity tradeoff line. Result also showed that hollow fiber extruded at high elongational stretch contributed by either long air gap or high draw ratio could potentially reduce the density of segregated chain-ends at surface of hollow fiber. This will result in a less effective post-treatment process, and subsequently decreases the hydrogen separation performance. This research has brought membrane technology a step closer towards the production of polymeric hollow fiber for ultrapure hydrogen separation.

description: Information concerning the performance of photovoltaic (PV) plants in a region is of fundamental
importance for many stakeholders of the sector. Nevertheless, often the lack of meteorological measurements – irradiance over all – prevent from correctly assessing the current health status of PV plants, i.e. the presence of ongoing mechanisms that gradually cause a performance degradation higher than expected and warranted. This study presents a methodology to infer statistical information on the performance loss rate (PLR) of a PV fleet in a region, when only few characteristics of PV plants (e.g. final yield, location, nominal power) are known. It makes use of satellite-retrieved values of global horizontal and diffuse horizontal irradiance, downloaded freely and only for an optimized number of representative locations. A fleet of 1899 PV plants located in South Tyrol (North-East of Italy) is used as a case study to validate the methodology, and results and possible applications are presented. In general, the presented methodology looks promising in extracting statistical information from a fleet of PV plants distributed in a region, and in inferring the probabilistic performance of future plants installed in the same area. Issues concerning the quality of the input data, related especially to the irradiance and the local skyline, are identified and discussed for a further improvement of the methodology.

description: Background/Introduction: Concurrent electroencephalography and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) have been widely used for studying the (presumably) awake and alert human brain with high temporal/spatial resolution. Although rsfMRI scans are typically collected while individuals are instructed to focus their eyes on a fixated cross, objective and verified experimental measures to quantify degree of vigilance are not readily available. Electroencephalography (EEG) is the modality extensively used for estimating vigilance, especially during eyes-closed resting state. However, pupil size measured using an eye-tracker device could provide an indirect index of vigilance. Methods: Three 12-min resting scans (eyes open, fixating on the cross) were collected from 10 healthy control participants. We simultaneously collected EEG, fMRI, physiological, and eye-tracker data and investigated the correlation between EEG features, pupil size, and heart rate. Furthermore, we used pupil size and EEG features as regressors to find their correlations with blood-oxygen-level-dependent fMRI measures. Results: EEG frontal and occipital beta power (FOBP) correlates with pupil size changes, an indirect index for locus coeruleus activity implicated in vigilance regulation (r = 0.306, p < 0.001). Moreover, FOBP also correlated with heart rate (r = 0.255, p < 0.001), as well as several brain regions in the anticorrelated network, including the bilateral insula and inferior parietal lobule. Discussion: In this study, we investigated whether simultaneous EEG-fMRI combined with eye-tracker measurements can be used to determine EEG signal feature associated with vigilance measures during eyes-open rsfMRI. Our results support the conclusion that FOBP is an objective measure of vigilance in healthy human subjects.

description: This paper presents a novel and flexible solution for fault prediction based on data collected from SCADA system. Fault prediction is offered at two different levels based on a data-driven approach: (a) generic fault/status prediction and (b) specific fault class prediction, implemented by means of two different machine learning
based modules built on an unsupervised clustering algorithm and a Pattern Recognition Neural Network, respectively.
Model has been assessed on a park of six photovoltaic (PV) plants up to 10 MW and on more than one hundred inverter
modules of three different technology brands. The results indicate that the proposed method is effective in (a) predicting
incipient generic faults up to 7 days in advance with sensitivity up to 95% and (b) anticipating damage of specific fault
classes with times ranging from few hours up to 7 days. The model is easily deployable for on-line monitoring of anomalies on new PV plants and technologies, requiring only the availability of historical SCADA and fault data, fault taxonomy and inverter electrical datasheet.
Portal axle on off-road vehicles: effects on drive shaft strength and passenger ride comfort
Creators: name: Chong, Poh Shin
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The portal axle is an off-road technology which is designed to provide higher ground clearance and increased torque at the wheels. The portal axle is typically mounted on the knuckle of the vehicle, allowing both the axle tubing and differential casing to be mounted higher under the vehicle. The usage of the portal axle system brings about two distinctive drawbacks; compromised ride comfort and increased torsional loadings on the drive shaft. In this study, an experimental test was carried out to determine the torsional strength and failure mode of the portal axle drive shaft. The experimental results were then verified using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Results from both experimental and FEA methods indicate that shaft failure occurs at the gear spline. However, there is a big discrepancy in the torsional stress values, in which the FEA results are significantly higher than the measured experimental values. This is reasonable considering that the shaft simulation analysis is conducted in a static structural manner, in which the flanged side of the shaft is fixed (zero displacement). On the other hand, this study also describes the influence of portal axles on passenger ride comfort. Here, the on road experiment is conducted by placing an accelerometer in the cabin of a portal axle equipped vehicle. The ride comfort experiments are conducted using two vehicles. The first being a normal pickup truck and the second being a pickup truck with the portal axles equipped. Both vehicles are of the same make, model and age. All measurements are performed on normal highways and over regular speed humps. The results from the ride comfort experiment indicate that the use of the portal axles result in significant deterioration of ride comfort. In order to validate the experimental results, a quarter car model representing the portal axle vehicle is simulated using Matlab’s Simulink function. Simulation results also indicate that the use of the portal axles adversely affects the ride comfort. However, when comparing the simulation to the experimental results, there is an 18% discrepancy in the results. This is primarily attributed to the fact that the quarter car model does not take into account the suspension bushings, suspension joints and chassis bending (flex) of the vehicle.

description: The article analyzes the changes in non-primary non-energy exports with the leading partners of Russia in recent years, the main growth points of goods by country, promising areas for promoting non-primary non-energy exports. The modern export support tools ensuring promotion and expansion of sales of non-primary non-energy goods are considered, the practices of Russian companies entering new markets are given. It is concluded that even in conditions of limited access to foreign markets Russian companies have the opportunity to enter new markets and expand exports of non-primary non-energy goods. Confidence in Russian products, formation of a new image of Russia, supplying the world market with high-quality and high-tech products that meet the standards of foreign markets, will contribute to the successful promotion of Russian non-primary non-energy products on new markets.
The status of geometry and matter in re-interpreted WdW equation

description: I have shown that the field defined by the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for \textit{pure gravity} is neither a standard gravitational field nor the field representing a particular universe. The theory offers a unified description of geometry and matter, with geometry being fundamental. The quantum theory possesses gravitational decoherence when the signature of $R^{(3)}$ changes. The quantum theory resolves singularities dynamically. Application to the FLRW $κ=0$ shows the creation of local geometries during quantum evolution. The 3-metric gets modified near the classical singularity in the case of the Schwarzschild geometry.

description: 33rd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1856-1862
description: This study focuses on the backup storage of solar off-grid systems by analyzing four battery charge controllers designed to control battery function, load feeding and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). Although MPPT was so far implemented alongside inverters, recently some companies have introduced smart battery charge controllers combined with MPPT. A new test method is defined and implemented on these charge controllers to verify their functionality, performance and efficiency. This method consists of an irradiance profile implemented by an irradiance simulator to an off-grid solar system with a battery storage. Performance and efficiency of these devices through various irradiance situations are analyzed and compared which led to interesting results.

description: Relativistic electrons, accelerated by the laser ponderomotive force, can be focused onto a high-Z convertor to generate high-brightness beams of gamma-rays, which in turn can be used to induce photonuclear reactions. In this work, the possibility of photo-transmutation of long-lived radionuclide Cs-135 by laser-plasma driven electron source has been demonstrated through Geant4 simulations. High energy electron generation, bremsstrahlung and photonuclear reaction have been observed at four different laser intensities of 10^{20} W/cm^2, 5 times 10^{20} W/cm^2, 10^{21} W/cm^2 and 5 times 10^{21} W/cm^2, respectively. It was shown that the laser intensity and the target geometry have strong effect on the transmutation reaction yield. At different laser intensities the recommended target sizes were found to obtain the maximum reaction yield. The remarkable feature of this work is to evaluate the optimal laser intensity to produce maximum reaction yield of 10^8 per Joule in laser pulse energy, which is 10^{21} W/cm^2. Our study suggests photo-transmutation driven by laser-based electron source as a promising approach for experimental research into transmutation reactions, with potential applications to nuclear waste management.

Unravelling the Glasgow effect: The relationship between accumulative bio-psychosocial stress, stress reactivity and Scotland's health problems

description: To date, multiple hypotheses have been proposed for the Scottish effect and, more specifically, Glasgow's high mortality rate and the associated Glasgow effect. Previous authors have highlighted the improbability of a single factor as responsible for this effect with seventeen possible hypotheses presented. These have ranged from socio-economic factors, lifestyle and cultural factors such as sectarianism, and political and economic factors. Although these may all be contributory factors to this paradox, the underpinning reasons for the observed effect remain relatively unexplained. In this paper, we suggest that the compounding effect of a unique blend of accumulating life stressors may predispose Scots, and particularly socially-disadvantaged Glaswegians, to a wide-range of health disorders. In short, a confluence of social, environmental, attitudinal and cultural stressors perhaps combine to negatively influence biological health. Future directions should consider the stress remediating role of physical activity, and the problems presented by barriers to participation in physical activity and exercise during key transitional stages of life

description: We study the possible boundary conditions of scalar field modes in a hyperscaling violation(HV) geometry with Lifshitz dynamical exponent $z (z\geqslant1)$ and hyperscaling violation exponent $θ(θ\neq0)$. For the case with $θ>0$, we show that in the parameter range with $1\leq z\leq 2,~-z+d-12,~-z+d-10$, which has been addressed in Ref. \cite{1201.1905}. Meanwhile, we also do the parallel investigation in the case with $θ<0$. We find that for $m^2<0$, three types of boundary conditions are available, but for $m^2>0$, only one type is available.

description: 33rd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1872-1877
description: The European H2020-FOF-13-2015 Eco-Solar project, that was started in October 2015 envisions to increase resource and energy efficiency over the entire photovoltaic value chain, while simultaneously maximising recycling and remanufacturing possibilities, by introducing design for recovery, repair and reuse, and collaborating for improvements in waste reduction. Reusing materials and reducing the consumption of raw materials will make solar cell panels both cheaper and greener. A pan-industrial approach is used to create an optimized valorisation of by-products, recycled and recovered wastes and mitigate the environmental impacts of PV production and recycling. The best possible utilisation with respect to the eco-efficiency assessment results is identified and novel solutions for poorly recovered and reused materials today will be presented.

Fragment-Based Drug Design
Creators: name: Smith, Vivian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The theory of FBDD believes that the active pockets of many drug targets are composed of multiple subactive cavities. The fragments of the active compound obtained by HTS often cannot bind well to the subactive cavities of the target protein. The optimization of the product often affects the entire molecule, and even changes the binding position to the target, leading to loss of activity. The FBDD method connects the fragments that specifically bind to each subactive cavity of the target protein with suitable linkers to assemble them into compounds with high activity. Therefore, drugs designed by the FBDD method often have the characteristics of high activity and high selectivity.
