Abstract:
Taking an outset in American artist Matthew Barney’s film Cremaster 2(1999), which is a part of the expansive work The Cremaster Cycle, this essay asks how notions of captivity reflect upon our concepts of inhumanity and animality. Captivity and confinement are in themselves favored themes of the popular imagination, but Barney’s speculative film suggests that notions of captivity also form part of the framework through which we imagine aspects of inhumanity and animality. Discussing the film in the light of contemporary theoretical reflections on what is commonly termed “the question of the inhuman” and “the question of the animal,” respectively, I understand the film to be a visual engagement with captivity and its significance for the discourses, images, and institutions that govern the boundaries of the human.

Abstract:
AbstractFor generations, Mexican and American Indian populations reciprocally and ritualistically took captives from one another’s societies in what are today the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. These captive-taking wars breached the expansion of the American state into the west (1850s) and tested the ability of the American state to enforce law and policy in a frontier environment. This intriguing history, however, has yet to be addressed in legal and social science research on race. Our goal in this article is two-fold: (1) to determine whether the captive status of individuals taken in these endemic borderland wars is visible within surviving U.S. administrative materials (e.g., census); and (2) to determine whether close analysis of census materials can be used to ascertain whether federal liberators were able to abolish the captive-taking trade relative to their official mandate. The authors analyze a core sample of 1860s-era census materials from the City of Santa Fe, New Mexico—which has a documented history of Indian captivity and enslavement—as well as church records to determine whether these materials indicate the continuance of captivity even after federal liberators had the opportunity to abolish the trade.

Abstract:
Captivity in a variety of forms frequently punctuated culture encounters in the early modern Pacific world. In few places was captivity more common than on the Northwest Coast, where a lively fur trade brought indigenous communities together with European and American traders. Between 1789 and 1792, the taking of captives and exchange of hostages was a strategy used to advantage by both native peoples and foreign ship crews. The captivity account of John Jewitt, 1803-1805, illustrates both the changing dynamics of the trade and of growing language vehicles of communication. The captivity accounts by both native and Russian chroniclers of the 1808-1810 Sv. Nikolai survivors demonstrate the complex motives and internal divisions among both elements. All of these cases draw attention to how many of the actors in the cultural contacts in the East Pacific Basin were "unfree," challenged in their status, and driven by competition in a short-lived market.

Abstract:
In recent years, public transit policy has often focused on chasing ‘choice’ riders, or those who have mode alternatives, while taking for granted ‘captive’ riders, or also referred to as transit dependents. This paper argues for a need to re-centre attention towards ‘captive’ riders through equity and sustainability perspectives, and to question the use of the term ‘captive’, as it alludes to marginalization. We conduct this research by examining the transit experiences of a sample of young captive riders in Don Valley Village and Crescent Town, two high-rise suburban neighbourhoods in the City of Toronto. Semi-structured interviews are used to gain insight into participants’ travel patterns and the challenges associated with public transit use. Participants accrue different types of costs with their experiences (i.e., time, money, safety, and comfort), which do limit their ability to participate in public life. The study is situated in the broader context of transit equity, which point to the need for service quality improvements for ‘captive’ riders. This study also shows why assessments of young captive riders’ experiences is essential for planning. Contrary to how captive riders are perceived, service quality issues prompted some of the study participants to switch to driving, which further questions the categorization of ‘choice’ and ‘captive’. Transit agencies are urged to consider further how to improve transit quality for ‘captive’ riders to contribute to equity but also to maintain transit loyalty among younger transit riders as their circumstances change.

Abstract:
Peoples daily lives and experiences often contain memories and information that they may want to recall again at a later time. Human memory, however, has its limitations and many times it alone may not be sufficient. People sometimes have difficulty recalling salient information and can forget important details over time. To complement what they can remember naturally, people must expend much time and manual effort to record desired content from their lives for future retrieval. Unfortunately, manual methods for capturing information are far from ideal. Over the years, ubiquitous computing researchers have constructed devices and applications to support the automated capture of live experiences and access to those records. At Georgia Tech, we have also investigated the benefits of automated capture and access in over half a dozen projects since 1995. As we encountered challenges in developing these systems, we began to understand how the difficulty of building capture and access systems can prevent exploration of the hard issues intertwined with understanding how capture impacts our everyday lives. These challenges illustrate the need for support structures in building this class of ubiquitous computing systems. This dissertation presents a set of abstractions for a conceptual framework and a focused design process that encourages designers to decompose the design of capture and access applications into a set of concerns that will be easier to develop and to manage. In addition, an implementation of the framework called the INCA Toolkit is discussed, along with a number of capture and access applications that have been built with it. These applications illustrate how the toolkit is used in practice and supports explorations of the capture and access design space.

Abstract:
This research focuses on the development and study of socially appropriate ways to archive data about important life experiences during unexpected and unstructured situations. This work involves three significant phases: formative studies to understand the data capture needs of particular populations of users in these situations; design and development of a technical architecture for capture and access in these settings coupled with design and development of applications for two specific domain problems; and evaluation of this solution as it pertains to these domain problems. The underlying solution presented in this dissertation is known as selective archiving, in which services are always on and available for recording but require some explicit action to archive data. If no such action is taken, recorded data is deleted automatically after a specified time. Selectively archived segments of data can provide an efficient way to recover and to analyze high quality data that traditionally available. The projects presented in this dissertation provide insight about the ways in which we can support record-keeping in informal and unstructured settings. Furthermore, when examined together, these projects provide a view into the larger generalized problem of unstructured capture and access and the acceptability of capture technologies. These considerations evolved into a set of seven tensions surrounding recording technologies that are presented in this dissertation. Furthermore, the experiences surrounding the deployment and evaluation of selective archiving technologies demonstrate the ways in which people use different types of knowledge and cues from the world to determine their reactions to and adoption of such technologies.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis deals with the emergence of bank and non-bank entities that provide a range of unique transaction-based payment services broadly called Mobile Financial Services (MFS) to unbanked, underserved and underbanked persons via mobile phones. Models of MFS from Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), banks, combinations of MNOs and banks, and independent Mobile Financial Services Providers are covered. Provision by non-banks of ‘bank-type’ services via mobile phones has been termed ‘transformational banking’ versus the ‘additive banking’ services from banks. All involve the concept of ‘branchless banking’ whereby ‘cash-in/cash out’ services are provided through ‘agents.’ Funds for MFS payments may available through a Stored Value Product (SVP), particularly through a Stored Value Account SVP variant offered by MNOs where value is stored as a redeemable fiat- or mobile ‘airtime’-based Store of Value. The competitive, legal, technical and regulatory nature of non-bank versus bank MFS models is discussed, in particular the impact of banking, payments, money laundering, telecommunications, e-commerce and consumer protection laws. Whether funding mechanisms for SVPs may amount to deposit-taking such that entities could be engaged in the ‘business of banking’ is discussed. The continued use of ‘deposit’ as the traditional trigger for the ‘business of banking’ is investigated, alongside whether transaction and paymentcentric MFS rises to the ‘business of banking.’ An extensive evaluation of ‘money’ based on the Orthodox and Claim School economic theories is undertaken in relation to SVPs used in MFS, their legal associations and import, and whether they may be deemed ‘money’ in law. Consumer protection for MFS and payments generally through current statute, contract, and payment law and common law condictiones are found to be wanting. Possible regulatory arbitrage in relation to MFS in South African law is discussed. The legal and regulatory regimes in the European Union, Kenya and the United States of America are compared with South Africa. The need for a coordinated payments-specific law that has consumer protections, enables proportional risk-based licensing of new non-bank providers of MFS, and allows for a regulator for retail payments is recommended. The use of trust companies and trust accounts is recommended for protection of user funds. | vi

Abstract:
AbstractPolarization of types in call-by-push-value naturally leads to the separation of inductively defined observable values (classified by positive types), and coinductively defined computations (classified by negative types), with adjoint modalities mediating between them. Taking this separation as a starting point, we develop a semantic characterization of typing with step indexing to capture observation depth of recursive computations. This semantics justifies a rich set of subtyping rules for an equirecursive variant of call-by-push-value, including variant and lazy records. We further present a bidirectional syntactic typing system for both values and computations that elegantly and pragmatically circumvents difficulties of type inference in the presence of width and depth subtyping for variant and lazy records. We demonstrate the flexibility of our system by systematically deriving related systems of subtyping for (a) isorecursive types, (b) call-by-name, and (c) call-by-value, all using a structural rather than a nominal interpretation of types.

Abstract:
Abstract Assessing the manoeuvring performances of a ship at a design stage is becoming more important, especially when trying to improve shipping efficiency to reduce fuel consumption. When designing a hull with appendages, it is necessary to balance hydrodynamic efficiency with manoeuvrability. Therefore, the possibility of simulating a captive test at a design stage will increase the chances of understanding the behaviour of a ship from an early stage in the design process. The current research is based on the evaluation of hydrodynamic efficiency of a hull and appendages in a pure resistance, self-propulsion and in a wind-assisted mode. The forces and moments acting on the hull and appendages are then analysed and used as inputs for a Virtual Captive Test (VCT) [1]. In order to correctly perform a VCT and further analyse the performances of a ship with a Velocity Prediction Programme (VPP), particular care has been put in correctly capturing the manoeuvrability coefficients. Those are derived with polynomial fittings once the forces and moments acting on the ship are extracted from the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Many CFD simulations were performed to assess the hydrodynamic characteristics of the hull and appendages in a range of flow directions, rudder angles and rotating flow. Those simulations encompass the whole range of datapoints needed to describe a wind-assisted ship during manoeuvring. Taking into consideration both hydrodynamic characteristics and manoeuvrability effects at an early design stage can reduce model tests costs and will allow to inspect a larger number of hull-appendages scenarios when analysing the final VPP results.

Abstract:
A series of experiments were carried out to assess the instantaneous hydrodynamic coefficients and the parametric rolling characteristics of a C11 class container vessel model. The experiments consisted of captive model tests at various heel angles, forced oscillation tests, free roll decay tests and parametric rolling tests. The results obtained from the forced oscillation tests in calm water on symmetric (upright) and asymmetric (heeled) cross-sections are discussed in here. The main objective of the forced oscillation tests was to obtain the heave, roll and pitch added masses and damping coefficients for two different speeds and also three different amplitudes of forced motions. The most important aspect was to assess the influence of taking instantaneous cross-section into account on calculation of these hydrodynamic coefficients. In addition, these tests allowed the identification of the level of non-linear effects with the amplitude of the forced motions for both symmetric and asymmetric hull forms. The experimental data obtained is compared with the results from two strip theory codes for symmetric and asymmetric cross-sections.

Abstract:
Abstract Chemical-Enhanced-Oil-Recovery (CEOR) processes have been used for increasing oil recoveries from oil reservoirs following the primary recovery phase. At harsh reservoir conditions (high salinity and high temperature), many CEOR methods fail to achieve their objectives. This raises the challenge to design optimum recipes that tolerate these harsh conditions and hence attain maximum hydrocarbon recovery at the minimum possible cost. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a Thermo-Viscosifying Polymer (TVP) and an Acrylamido Tertiary Butyl Sulfonate (ATBS)/acrylamide (AM) copolymer in mobilizing residual oil from carbonate. The surfactants are carboxybetaine based amphoteric surfactants SS-880 and SS-885. These candidates were selected based on an intensive evaluation process carried out in previous works at KFUPM, which includes fluid rheology, long-term thermal stability, interfacial tension (IFT), adsorption and microfluidic studies. Furthermore, contact angles were measured at high pressure and high temperature using a captive drop analyzer. Slug size and injection sequence optimization were also investigated through core-flooding experiments. Different injection scenarios including SW-SP-SW, SW-P-S-SW, SW-S-SW-P-SW and SW-P-SW-S-SW were also investigated to identify the best injection scenario. The coreflooding experiments were conducted at 90°C. The seawater (SW) used in this study is Arabian Gulf seawater having salinity of 57,000 ppm. The results showed that surfactant-polymer combination and SW-SP-SW injection scenario were the best in terms of oil recovery. The optimum chemical combination was found to be carboxybetaine (0.05% wt.) and ATBS/AM (0.25% wt.). It was also observed that the recoveries were increasing proportionally to the slug-size. This indicates that the chemical injection sequence and slug-size have a significant impact on ultimate oil recovery. This is believed to be due to the advantageous synergies between the chemicals. The core-flooding experiments confirmed the importance of optimizing the design of CEOR processes taking into consideration the type of chemicals, concentrations, slug sizes, and flooding sequence of the different combination of seawater (SW), surfactant (5) and polymer (P).

Abstract:
Bundle arrangements are currently used in the design of underwater riser towers or oil export lines. A bundle is made of several parallel pipes linked together at intervals. Even if individual pipes are of circular section, the global external cross-section seen by the fluid is non-circular. When placed in a current, a bundle may be therefore prone to plunge instability [6], also know as “galloping”. When designing such bundle’s section, it is important to be able to predict its susceptibility to galloping and what are the implications on the whole structure. Galloping is taking place in a low frequency range compared to VIV but with larger amplitude, up to several diameters. Instability can also occur in torsion through a coupling effect with transverse oscillations. Riser Vortex Induced Vibrations have been studied for decades, and numerous experiments have been performed both in-situ and in model test facilities to understand and predict the instability of a slender cylindrical structure in current. The main motivation is the consequences of VIV on riser fatigue life. If galloping and related instabilities are well known in aerodynamics [9], no large specific experiment or study exists for hydrodynamic flows [1], [7]. Therefore no guidelines exist to help prevent or predict galloping while designing cross-sections and pipe arrangements. Until recently, only the Blevins criteria [1] were available to predict the risk of instability. Based on recent examples of riser tower, experimental and numerical investigations are carried out within the “Gallopan” project in the frame of CITEPH (Concertation pour l’Innovation Technologique dans l’Exploration Production des Hydrocarbures) [11]. The main objective is to propose guidelines to avoid or reduce the risk of galloping in bundle cross section design. Two cross section shapes are investigated, a square cross section for which results are available in the literature [1], [10], and a bundle cross section specifically designed to be unstable. Model tests are performed in two steps: • Captive tests and transverse forced oscillation tests in steady current to derive hydrodynamic coefficients; • Free oscillations tests in steady current to identify the range of reduced velocity where instability occurs as well as the response amplitudes. A specific experimental arrangement, based on a vertical pendulum system is used. Numerical investigations are focused on the use of a standard riser analysis tool. Hydrodynamic coefficients issued from experiments are introduced. Model test set-up is reproduced for comparison purpose.

Abstract:
Digital Promise and Langer Research Associates developed the “Survey of Student Perceptions of Remote Teaching and Learning” to capture the experiences of undergraduates taking courses that transitioned to online instruction in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey explores the nature of college courses as they were taught during the COVID-19 outbreak, the pervasiveness of various challenges undergraduates faced after the transition to remote instruction, and course features associated with higher levels of student satisfaction. Data analyses compared experiences of students from low-income, underrepresented, or rural backgrounds to those of students with none of these characteristics. This survey was administered in the spring of 2020 to a random national sample of 1,008 undergraduates, age 18 and older, who were taking college courses for credit that included in-person class sessions when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and had to finish the course by learning at a distance.

Abstract:
Plant yield largely depends on a complex interplay and feedback mechanisms of distinct hormonal pathways. Over the past decade great progress has been made in elucidating the global molecular mechanisms by which each hormone is produced and perceived. However, our knowledge of how interactions between hormonal pathways are spatially and temporally regulated remains rudimentary. For example, we have demonstrated that although the BR receptor BRI1 is widely expressed, the perception of BRs in epidermal cells is sufficient to control whole-organ growth. Supported by additional recent works, it is apparent that hormones are acting in selected cells of the plant body to regulate organ growth, and furthermore, that local cell-cell communication is an important mechanism. In this proposal our goals were to identify the global profile of translated genes in response to BR stimulation and depletion in specific tissues in Arabidopsis; determine the spatio-temporal dependency of BR response on auxin transport and signaling and construct an interactive public website that will provide an integrated analysis of the data set. Our technology incorporated cell-specific polysome isolation and sequencing using the Solexa technology. In the first aim, we generated and confirmed the specificity of novel transgenic lines expressing tagged ribosomal protein in various cell types in the Arabidopsis primary root. We next crossed these lines to lines with targeted expression of BRI1 in the bri1 background. All lines were treated with BRs for two time points. The RNA-seq of their corresponding immunopurified polysomal RNA is nearly completed and the bioinformatic analysis of the data set will be completed this year. Followed, we will construct an interactive public website (our third aim). In the second aim we started revealing how spatio-temporalBR activity impinges on auxin transport in the Arabidopsis primary root. We discovered the unexpected role of BRs in controlling the expression of specific auxin efflux carriers, post-transcriptionally (Hacham et al, 2012). We also showed that this regulation depends on the specific expression of BRI1 in the epidermis. This complex and long term effect of BRs on auxin transport led us to focus on high resolution analysis of the BR signaling per se. Taking together, our ongoing collaboration and synergistic expertise (hormone action and plant development (IL) and whole-genome scale data analysis (US)) enabled the establishment of a powerful system that will tell us how distinct cell types respond to local and systemic BR signal. BR research is of special agriculture importance since BR application and BR genetic modification have been shown to significantly increase crop yield and to play an important role in plant thermotolerance. Hence, our integrated dataset is valuable for improving crop traits without unwanted impairment of unrelated pathways, for example, establishing semi-dwarf stature to allow increased yield in high planting density, inducing erect leaves for better light capture and consequent biomass increase and plant resistance to abiotic stresses.

Fishing Gears of the Cambodian Mekong. Vientiane, Lao PDR: Mekong River Commission Secretariat, March 2003. http://dx.doi.org/10.52107/mrc.akbo7a.

Full text
Abstract:
This catalogue describes more than 150 types of fishing gear used in the Cambodian part of the Mekong River Basin. Types are divided into 16 main categories ranging from hand-capture, scoop and wounding devices to traps and nets. These are divided into 44 secondary categories and 94 tertiary groups. Some 400 names for the different types of gear are given in Khmer (in both Khmer and Latin scripts) and English. Technical descriptions and mentions of target species are accompanied by detailed line drawings and photographs. Charts illustrate the seasons when each type of gear is used in four regions – the Tonle Sap Lake, the Tonle Sap River, the floodplains of the Mekong and Bassac rivers south and east of Phnom Penh, and the upper Mekong in northern Cambodia. Costs are given in local currency based on prices between 1998 and 2000. Gender and legal aspects are also taken into account.

STUDY ON MICROMECHANICAL FRACTURE MODELS OF STRUCTURAL STEEL AND ITS WELDS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, June 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2021.17.2.2.

Full text
Abstract:
Steel structures have been widely used in constructions due to their advantages of lightweight, high strength, short construction time and high recycling and reuse potential. Fracture failure in steel structures should be prevented to avoid collapse of the whole structures. Micromechanical fracture models can capture the fracture initiation mechanisms and therefore can be used to predict ductile fractures in steel. Twelve smooth round bars were carried out to obtain the material properties and 36 notched round bars were tested to calibrate the parameters of stress modified critical strain (SMCS) model and the void growth model (VGM) for structural steels (Q235B and Q345B) and the corresponding welds. Specimens were extracted from the base metal, the weld metal and the heat affected zone (HAZ) to investigate fracture behaviour in different parts of the welded joint. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurements were taken and finite element models were developed to calibrate the models. The test results and calibrated parameters are reported. Moreover, the calibrated models are applied to analyses the fracture behaviour of welded joints and their accuracy are validated. The calibrated and validated models can be used for further numerical fracture analysis in welded steel structures.
